The carriage placed under the city wall was naturally not empty. The sandbags contained in the carriage became the best cover for the soldiers in just three minutes.
Liu Dazhu didn't even plan to detect the Japanese invaders' firepower points. The infantry company under his command launched an attack brazenly at the moment when the idiot man finished shouting and Maki Kagawa was still thinking about why the Chinese bandits were so desperate.
A dozen machine guns fired at the bunker where the Japanese troops could be seen. Three mortars were blocked 500 meters away by the thick carriage bunker. The artillerymen were waiting for the shelling position data to be reported from the front.
The infantry did not fire at all, and the heavy rain of bullets fired from the machine guns made it impossible for the Japanese troops to raise their heads.
Maki Kagawa, who was hiding in the bunker, felt aggrieved. The mighty Japanese Empire had only been able to crush its enemies. When had it ever been bullied like this by "bandits"? Following Lieutenant Kagawa's order, the heavy machine gun located in the middle of the city wall
The Type 92 heavy machine gun on the position spoke first. It was commanding and protected by a bunker similar to a bunker. The Type 92 heavy machine gun also fired happily.
Several shells from three mortars exploded around the heavy machine gun bunker, turning Maki Kagawa's face white, but it did not stop the heavy machine gun from chirping happily.
Curved artillery such as mortars are the most powerful artillery for bypassing various buildings and attacking enemies in trenches. However, if they are shelling roofed bunkers or fortification bunkers, that is really not their specialty. Unless they are used several times in a row.
The missile hits the top of the bunker and uses the energy of the gunpowder explosion to collapse the bunker, but this is really not easy.
Seeing this situation, the desperate hearts of Maki Kagawa and the soldiers of the Japanese infantry team became a little more alive. As long as the heavy machine gun was not destroyed, at least the enemy would not be able to get in. Although the main force of the Eighth Division was still
It's hundreds of miles away, but if the main force can be notified to come to the rescue, there will be a glimmer of hope, right?
"What a fool, you actually built a bunker on the city wall." Liu Dazhu punched the sandbags of the fortification angrily.
"The machine gun platoon and the third platoon continue to fire. The first platoon and the second platoon launch attacks from the east and west walls. I want to see how many machine gun bunkers they have." Liu Dazhu suppressed the anger on his face and ordered continuously.
"Liu Company Commander, don't go to such trouble now. There are not many ways to use mortars to take out bunkers, but it reminds me of a trick the regiment commander once taught us. But I haven't tried it yet. Why don't you let me try it first?" Chen Yunfa stood aside.
I was deep in thought just now and said hurriedly after hearing Liu Dazhu give the order.
"What do you want to do? Don't play the same trick of the commander rushing in alone. I tell you, that won't work. It's broad daylight and dozens of little devils are not vegetarians. If you make any mistake,
, I can't explain it to the superior." Liu Dazhu was stunned and quickly shook his head to refuse.
He knew the importance in Liu Lang's heart of the dozen special forces carefully trained by Liu Lang. Two of them were killed in the battle a few days ago. Liu Lang's face almost turned red when he touched the bodies. And those special forces also did not let Liu Lang down.
Not only did they complete special operations tactics such as sneak attacks and sniper kills during the entire war, they also worked part-time as scouts and became the eyes of the independent regiment scattered throughout the battlefield. Every move of the Eighth Division and
The deployment of troops was clearly detected by their reconnaissance.
It can be said that this time the Independent Regiment was able to become famous in one battle and defeat the Eighth Division into what it is today. The role of the sixteen special forces was the most important, and it was definitely no less important than the role of an elite infantry battalion.
Especially the Chen Yunfa in front of him was not only extremely powerful in individual combat, but also extremely quick-thinking and extremely lucky. Together with Mo Xiaomao, they recruited hundreds of bandits and destroyed two brigades of Japanese and puppet troops.
, and also stole thousands of rounds of artillery shells and baggage.
As long as he can survive until the end of the war, his military exploits... Although Liu Dazhu is proud that his military exploits are no less than those of other battalion and company commanders, compared with this one, he feels that he is far behind.
"Hey, don't worry! Captain Liu, the little devil in front of me is not enough for me to go up with a knife and show you the technical skills taught by the commander. I'm afraid I won't be as good as the commander.
"Chen Yunfa laughed and said.
After hearing this, Liu Dazhu was a little curious and saw Chen Yunfa, who was like a giant bear, running to the mortar position and whispering a few words to the sergeant squad leader in charge of one of the Type 20 82mm mortars.
.
The sergeant and several privates looked at Chen Yunfa with puzzled expressions.
Then everyone watched in amazement as the giant bear-like man removed the bracket of the mortar, and with one hand, he lifted up the Type 20 82, which weighed about 65 kilograms including the gun mount.
With one end of both hands, hold the black muzzle slightly upward and point it forward like you are holding a rifle.
"What is this going to do?" Everyone was drawing circles in their heads.
"Here, you are responsible for loading the shells for me." Chen Yunfa held the muzzle of the gun and took aim at the machine gun bunker 500 meters away, and ordered to the sergeant squad leader beside him.
"Cough cough" Liu Dazhu coughed desperately.
The sergeant artillery squad leader also had a wry smile on his face, "Squad leader Chen, you put the muzzle of the cannon flat. Even if I put the shell in, it can't hit the primer and can't be fired out!"
Since its birth, the mortar has been different from other flat-firing cannons. The flat-firing cannon is filled with shells from the breech, and the barrel has rifling. The shells rotate out with high muzzle velocity and accuracy, and their mission is to orbit the mortar.
For various fortifications, the mortar uses the parabolic principle to send the shells out, but the mortar stuffs the shells from the muzzle, then hits the bottom detonator to ignite, and then sends the shells to high altitude to let them fall to the target location, with high accuracy
Slightly worse.
However, due to its ability to shoot cattle across mountains, the mortar is the best infantry gun to accompany infantry attacks. However, if you want to use it as a flat-firing artillery, you don’t have to think about how to fire the shells.
It's very nerve-wracking.
Chen Yunfa's action revealed that he knew nothing about mortars. Why couldn't Liu Dazhu smile bitterly? The commander was sometimes unreliable. How could a mortar do this?
"Hey, if you see the sorghum stalk over there, go and get me one. Then you will know how to fire the shells." Chen Yunfa was not discouraged and said stubbornly.
Sorghum is a grain that is not widely available in the north. Perhaps because of the war, the dead stalks in many sorghum fields outside Chengde City have not been cut off and new crops have been planted.
"Here." The sergeant didn't believe it and quickly ran to get a sorghum stalk and handed it to Chen Yunfa.
Chen Yunfa bent the front end of the sorghum pole into a circle to fix the tail of the mortar shell, then stretched out his hand to pull the shell around in the barrel a few times, making the eyelids of several artillerymen around him jump.
This mortar shell fires as soon as it touches the bottom! Do you want to play it so casually?
After several tests and feeling that there was no problem, Chen Yunfa put the sixty-kilogram mortar barrel on his shoulder, pointed the muzzle in the direction of the machine gun bunker, squatted and stood in a horse stance, with two strong and powerful arms wrapped around each other.
Holding the gun barrel, he said in a deep voice: "Here, send the shells."
"Are you sure you won't blow up the barrel?" The sergeant's artillery squad leader squatted beside him with a pale smiling face, pulling the sorghum pole to feed the shells inside.
"Anyway, the regimental commander has never exploded like this." Chen Yunfa smiled brightly.
...
"What tricks are the Chinese doing again?" Second Lieutenant Maki Kagawa, who was hiding in the bunker, looked at a group of Chinese people hundreds of meters away pointing at him, and felt a bad premonition in his heart.
, hurriedly picked up the telescope hanging around his neck.
"Baga, the Chinese are so crazy." Maki Kagawa muttered to himself as he watched Chen Yunfa carry a mortar directly at the heavy machine gun bunker through the telescope.
The degree of surprise is definitely no less than that of modern Chinese who say "fuck" more than a dozen times in a row.
It is estimated that the Chinese who do not have infantry artillery would make such a stupid move. Maki Kagawa's face was filled with disdain, and he completely forgot that when he saw these mortars, his face turned pale with fright.
Paper is gone.
However, Lieutenant Kagawa's disdain soon solidified on his face.
