Anda Twenty-three spent this time running outside the city from morning to night. He spent several days building a second line of defense ten miles outside Yuncheng.
Anda 23 carefully studied the "spray cannon" used by the Eighth Route Army.
The research here is not to obtain physical objects for research, but to find a few soldiers who survived the last Yuncheng battle and saw the Eighth Route Army firing "spray cannons". In addition, Anda 23 also asked about seeing "spray cannons"
pilot.
Anda Twenty-Three conducted various investigations and finally came to a result, that is, the Eighth Route Army's "spray cannon" has a range of about five kilometers.
The actual range is six kilometers, and the range predicted by Anda 23 is very close to the real range.
But this is because when the Eighth Route Army last attacked Yuncheng, the rocket launchers were not used at their maximum range.
From this we can see Anda 23’s cautious attitude towards the defense of Yuncheng.
He said to his adjutant more than once when setting up defenses: "Mr. Zhutian, the importance of Yuncheng is related to the entire battle. If Yuncheng is in the hands of our army, Zhongtiao Mountain will be ours sooner or later. But if Yuncheng is in the hands of the enemy... we will not only
To lose Zhongtiao Mountain, the troops on the north bank of the Yellow River will also have to withdraw!"
"Yes!" Takeda Kamie replied.
He had never seen Anda Twenty-san take a battle so seriously.
Usually, Anda 23's attitude towards battle is more of "just go up and fight. As long as we rush forward bravely, the enemy will fall under our bayonets."
But now, Anda 23 feels like he is facing a formidable enemy.
"Your Excellency Lieutenant General!" Zhutian Shangjiang was a little confused: "The Jinsui Army has been defeated by us, and the Eighth Route Army has been trapped in Zhongtiao Mountain by us. Besides, they are not good at fighting on the plains. Do we really need to worry so much?"
Anda Twenty-Three shook his head, then turned his gaze to Zhongtiao Mountain in the south and replied: "If it were someone else, I might not be worried. But do you know who is watching us on Camel Ridge?"
"Independent regiment?" Takeda Kamie said: "Is the Lieutenant General worried about Li Yunlong?"
Anda Twenty-Three laughed: "Li Yunlong may indeed be a trouble, but the role he can play is just a group."
Then Taketa Kamie understood: "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, is worried about Xiaobei!"
Anda Twenty-Three nodded.
Zhutian Shangjiang hesitated and said: "But it is said that Xiao Dongbei is just a battalion commander of the Eighth Route Army. Is he more terrifying than Li Yunlong?"
"Takegami-kun!" Anda Twenty-three replied: "Although he is only a battalion commander, if Li Yunlong listens to his suggestions, and even the commander of the Eighth Route Army listens to his suggestions, then do you think the role he can play is just a battalion commander?"
Battalion Commander?"
Takeda Kamie was speechless. This really cannot be measured by the position of "battalion commander".
What's more, I heard that the tank unit of the Eighth Route Army was also commanded by this battalion commander. It was also said that the connection between Yingjiang and Mao Xiong was also related to this person... Takeda Kamie couldn't imagine how one person could do so many things, and in every aspect
can be so outstanding.
Anda 23 spread out the defense map again and went over the entire defense line again, then nodded with satisfaction.
Except for the Salt Lake direction in the south, which was too close to Zhongtiao Mountain to add a defensive line, the passages in all directions of Yuncheng were blocked at every step. If the Eighth Route Army wanted to attack Yuncheng, it would be more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Thinking of this, Anda Twenty-Three felt a little relieved.
He had been working almost without sleep for a few days, directing his subordinates to complete all this. He wanted to see what else the little Northeast could do.
What Anda 23 didn't know was that Wang Xuexin was already ready to attack and was waiting for the attack after dark.
In fact, it is false to say "be prepared", because there is only three days of preparation time, and the preparations in all aspects are insufficient, and can even be said to be seriously insufficient.
The landing craft lacks sea trials. All Director Li can guarantee is that it can run on the road and drive in the water. He cannot guarantee anything else.
Factory Director Li said this to Wang Xuexin: "Comrade, the time is too short. There are only three days before and after. We can only do this. Otherwise, it will take us ten days and a half to build a fishing boat..."
"I understand!" Wang Xuexin replied: "Don't worry, Director Li, if anything goes wrong, we won't trouble you!"
Wang Xuexin knew that this was what Director Li wanted. After all, he was a businessman, and he still had a way of "protecting himself wisely", otherwise he would not be able to survive until now.
But to be honest, we really can’t hold him responsible for this. It’s fun enough that it’s free.
Factory Director Li laughed along with him and said: "Captain Wang, you are just saying this, your business is our business, and we don't want the troops to suffer losses because of the ship's problems..."
Wang Xuexin's mind was actually no longer on this. He turned his attention to the amphibious landing ship built by Director Li.
Not to mention, after all, this is a big shipyard that has been working as a shipbuilder for decades, and this ship is built in a decent way:
The chassis is a car chassis... The car was provided by the Eighth Route Army. The front part of the car remains unchanged, but the rear cargo compartment is removed, and then a ship is built with two pontoons welded together. An iron plate is erected in front for landing.
Pedal landing craft.
Director Li introduced:
"We have strengthened the pedals, and we have used steel beams to strengthen the position extending toward the front of the tank, so that it can support the weight of the tank."
"The engine uses a shoulder strap, so it can be propelled in the water without much thrust. And the engine powered by a shoulder strap will make much less noise than a car engine!"
"It is best to beach and land. In addition, you should also consider carefully at the landing point whether the other side is hard or soft..."
This last sentence hits the point.
However, Wang Xuexin had already considered this. This was not difficult for the Eighth Route Army. All it took was a few civilians to go to the other side and look for a suitable landing point.
If you only think of this problem now, I'm afraid it's too late.
Looking at the landing ship, Wang Xuexin asked doubtfully: "Director Li, how do you drive this tank up? Along the landing board? Is this too dangerous?"
Director Li chuckled, took out a schematic diagram that he had prepared a long time ago, put it in front of Wang Xuexin, and said: "To go up like this, you just need to dig a hole..."
Wang Xuexin took a glance at the picture and understood that it was indeed a good method.
In fact, it is to build a platform with a height difference from the landing ship, and then drive the landing ship to the platform and then lower the landing board... Then there is no height difference for the tank, and it can drive directly up.
Wang Xuexin shook Director Li's hand and said: "Thank you, Director Li, we won this battle, and you share the credit!"
These words made Director Li chuckle and couldn't close his mouth.
