With such a heavy gift, how could Liu Lang enjoy it alone.

Let the orderly Sanchuan'er call the whole regiment of officers and above as soon as possible, if this rocket artillery has more than half of the power of time and space, then the main artillery of the independent regiment will be finalized, not only the artillery tactics will be changed, but the infantry tactics will also be changed accordingly, and it is also time for these military commanders to see the killer features of the independent regiment.

It's okay to play with mountain artillery and cooperate with infantry artillery, but play this with rocket artillery, people who don't know the power of rocket artillery will be blown into scum by their own rocket artillery.

The rocket artillery test site is actually an artillery training ground, which is mainly used for artillery training, and will only be delivered to Su Xiaomei when they need to test.

However, unlike artillery training, once a weapon that needs to be kept secret needs to be tested, it is generally reported two days in advance, and then the security department will conduct an inventory of five kilometers away from the training ground. In the past two years, the surrounding mountain people have become accustomed to basically not being within five kilometers of the artillery training ground, and the independent regiment has also made some financial compensation to the surrounding mountain people for this.

There were also spies who tried to inquire about the artillery training ground of the Independent Regiment through the mountain people, so as to analyze what kind of artillery the Independent Regiment used for training in peacetime. However, the mountain people, who have long been held by retired veterans stationed in the village to educate them on this issue, are also very vigilant, and once this problem is involved, they will often be surrounded by armed militiamen with a dozen or twenty people, and in the past two years, at least six or seven groups of spies have been caught and thrown into iron mines to become free labor.

The mountain people also got a lot of rewards for this, not only quietly reported, but even learned to dig their own pits and hook up with outsiders to ask similar questions, more than spies.

It's just that they did it too much, and by the second half of 35, this kind of "good thing" had completely disappeared, which made the mountain people still a little hopeful. It is estimated that whether it is the government or Japan, they are all scared by these mountain people, and it is completely good to sell the spies as fat sheep!

Anyway, the big deal for the independent regiment is to equip some mountain artillery mortars, is it possible that they can also be equipped with 150 heavy guns! They also need a car to pull it for several tons.

As for the simple three-jumpers imported from the empire on which the sun never sets, to be honest, both China and Japan did not think it was very practical. If you want to be flexible, you can use a motorcycle; If you want to have a large load, you can use a truck; The product between the two is not too big, the price is not cheap and it costs oil, that is, it can be used to pull a few people to run in peacetime.

However, the security office of the independent regiment will not take this lightly, and after receiving the notice that it wants to test the new artillery, it still quickly dispatched a large number of people to conduct a comprehensive search around the training ground, and even specially seconded the special brigade that was still waiting for the new equipment to go out because of the urgency of time.

It wasn't until more than an hour later that a group of people who were already a little impatient received the news of safety ahead, and set off with two tightly covered three-jumpers.

The firing site was in a small mountain pass, eight kilometers away from the range of the artillery training ground, which was basically the range of the Type 63 107 rocket launcher in time and space. Looking at this posture, Liu Lang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as the firing range can reach eight kilometers, although it is not as good as the Japanese heavy artillery with a range of ten kilometers, but it is enough to deal with the mountain artillery with a range of only seven kilometers against the Japanese invaders, and he will never be beaten passively because the range is too close, which basically meets his expectations for rocket artillery.

Even if it encounters the Japanese 150 heavy artillery, the rocket artillery weighing no more than 600 kilograms in battle is not without the ability to counterattack, and the strong mobility will definitely make those big guys who are difficult to move when they are put down have a good drink.

As soon as the tarpaulin was torn off, the true body of the 12-barrel rocket launcher appeared for the first time in front of all the officers of the Independent Regiment.

"My dear, you're going to use a cannon as a machine gun!" The artillery battalion commander Zhao Ergou's big mouth has not been closed since then.

The unprecedented structure of the cannon body directly silenced the school officers who did not know the existence of this weapon. It's really the same as what Zhao Ergou was amazed just now, this really looks like a machine cannon, or twelve thick barrel machine guns, just from the appearance of it, it's really not too awesome.

Just, is that possible?

"Battalion Commander Zhao, you know what a storm is, no, this storm rocket launcher we designed is to sweep away all enemies like a storm." Su Xiaomei's face was so stunned that she couldn't hide it.

"Battalion Commander Zhao, this is not a machine gun, it is called rocket artillery, rocket artillery is not a new thing, it has not appeared in the history of mankind, our Chinese ancestors have been playing this thing since the Song Dynasty, and it has reached the peak of ancient rocket artillery in the Ming Dynasty. It's just that we missed the best opportunity to carry forward the gunpowder, and let the Westerners go ahead of us, and we are lagging behind, so we have been bullied repeatedly for nearly a hundred years. Ye Qisun on the side gave science to the shocked school officials.

"Have you played with the cupola? You light a cupola at a time, and it's pretty much the same thing. Liu Tuanzuo directly explained to his subordinates in the most obvious way.

The school officials nodded one after another, compared to Professor Ye's sigh that it was both the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, it was obvious that Liu Tuanzuo's explanation was more down-to-earth.

It's just that this "cupola" can hit 8,000 meters away, and it's a little too evil! Moreover, can the "cupola" be so accurate? Although they didn't read a lot of books, as soldiers who had been in battle for a long time, the officers quickly grasped the two key points of rocket artillery, the most important point of range and accuracy.

Without these two points, rocket artillery is useless even if it hits a lot of shells at a time.

As the chief officer of the artillery battalion, although Zhao Ergou was very eager for new artillery, he still asked: "Professor Ye, can this thing really hit that far of 8,000 meters?" It's almost as good as the treasure of my artillery battalion. ”

Although he did not directly question the range of rocket artillery, he also expressed his distrust, mainly because Liu Tuanzuo's use of the "cupola" as an example makes people inevitably have shadows.

"Camp Commander Zhao, didn't you bring your Zhenying Treasure over to make a comparison together! You can fire 12 shots first and see how much fried noodles you can cover, and then look at our scientific research results. Su Xiaomei's cheeks puffed out cutely, and she said a little angrily.

The artillery battalion had two Bofors mountain guns, one of which was pulled to the training team for training, and the other was still at the base.

Zhao Ergou didn't ask any more questions, and turned around and commanded an artillery squad carefully selected by his subordinates to start aiming at the shelling area prepared for them by the shooting range.

Liu Tuanzuo obviously attached great importance to this new artillery test, and specially approved 18 rounds of Bofors Mountain Artillery shells for a live-fire drill in one go. You must know that the unit price of a Bofors Mountain artillery shell is as high as 80 oceans, and the live-fire training of the artillery battalion in peacetime is not so luxurious, and it is not bad for an artillery squad to fire 18 rounds a year.

"Boom" As the soldiers of the artillery squad used a professional artillery rangefinder to report the data very professionally and adjusted the muzzle, the Bofors Mountain Cannon let out a deafening roar at the sound of Zhao Ergou's password, and covered the firing area with a cannon.

The officers who observed from the binoculars nodded one after another, especially the several infantry battalion commanders led by Ling Hong, who gave Zhao Ergou a few thumbs up. Although the commander of the Ergou battalion is not very reliable in ordinary times, he is still very strong in his professional field, and the continuous rise of smoke columns in the telescope shows that except for the three guns that were tested in the firing area, the remaining ten guns have completely hit the target, and with such artillery support in the rear, their infantry are of course much more relieved.

Liu Lang also nodded slightly, judging from the performance of this artillery squad, the huge investment in the artillery battalion over the years is obviously not in vain.

Artillery, the god of war, is really an ancestor who spends money, and that doesn't mean that it's like filming a TV series, where the cannon goes, the shell is loaded, the little red flag is waved down, and the enemy will be wiped out. In order to hit accurately, it is necessary that the level of the artillery observer is high enough, and the artillery operating the cannon can adjust the muzzle accurately according to the data of the observer. And that, there must be more live-fire training.

And the unit price of a Bofors Mountain artillery shell is as high as 80 oceans. An artillery squad has a minimum of 20 rounds of live-ammunition training in a year, and an artillery company has 180 rounds for nine artillery squads, while Zhao Ergou's artillery battalion has three artillery companies, and the basic training capacity is as high as 540 rounds.

In 1935 alone, the artillery battalion consumed all kinds of shells as high as 80,000 oceans, plus the newly established artillery unit of the base garrison battalion, the independent regiment's annual expenditure on artillery training could definitely make all other troops, including the German armament divisions of the Central Army, desperate.

Because, no one has Liu Tuanzuo's ability to make money abroad.

Now it seems that it is certainly worth it, having a high-quality artillery can increase the combat effectiveness of the infantry by several notches. If it weren't for the support of mountain artillery and heavy artillery, no matter how strong their infantry combat effectiveness was, they wouldn't be able to mix in China for eight years.

Su Xiaoniu put down the telescope in her hand, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly into an arc. Although the rate of fire of the Bofors Mountain Cannon, which is known as the most bullish mountain gun in China, reached 25 rounds per minute, in order to pursue the accuracy of shelling, the artillery squad under the command of Zhao Ergou took 2 minutes to shoot up 13 shells, and it is estimated that they were reluctant to shoot all of them at once and were quietly left behind.

The hit was very accurate, and judging from the smoke and dust that exploded, the power was not small.

However, the rocket launcher developed by her and her partners can shoot all 12 rockets weighing 18 kilograms in just eight seconds!
