The artillery company of the Independent Regiment advanced to the field of naturally the treasure of their two town regiments---- Bofors Mountain Cannon.

Bofors mountain artillery has just entered China, in 1932 in the Songhu War of Resistance for the first time, not to mention the Jin Sui army in Shanxi almost became an independent kingdom is not familiar, that is, many central army generals have not seen.

However, this does not mean that the generals and colonels of the Jin Sui Army are blind and illiterate.

What does the slender and elegant barrel of the Bofors Mountain Cannon represent? It's not pretty, it's that it can provide a greater muzzle velocity and a longer range for the shell.

The huge shield is not a nuisance, but provides greater protection for the artillery.

Watching the busy artillery of the Independent Regiment drop the four wedge-shaped steel feet of the Bofors Mountain Cannon to the ground, the eyelids of the generals and colonels of the Jin Sui Army jumped violently.

With such strong shock absorption measures, how powerful is this cannon?

Compared with the cannon in front of him, it is a Jinzao Type 13 mountain cannon with a cannon body plus two wheels and a steel shield of no more than one square meter。。。。。。

Judging from the appearance alone, if the cannon of the independent regiment is a lady dressed in a cheongsam, then the Jinzao 13 mountain cannon, no, to be exact, the Japanese-style 41 mountain cannon, is a village girl wearing a large-flowered cotton jacket to show "simplicity".

Before they even started fighting, the artillery of the independent regiment was embarrassed to put the mountain artillery pushed out by the 200th Brigade like a baby.

"Brother Liu, what kind of cannon are you?" Comrade Lao Li had a toothache for a while, and pointed to the Bofors Mountain Cannon and asked Liu Lang.

"This is the Bofors 75mm mountain artillery 。。。。。。" Liu Lang pointed to the current housekeeping treasures of the independent regiment and introduced them to these treasures.

What Bofors mountain cannon was built by the Swedish Bofors company, and what pure German technology was used, these things were not listened to by the generals and colonels of the Jin Sui Army, but a Bofors mountain cannon was purchased for 15,000 US dollars, and a shell of 60 oceans almost made their mouths swallow a goose egg.

Taiyuan Arsenal imitation of the Jin Dynasty made a three-mountain cannon cost only 10,000 oceans, has already made Chief Yan distressed, over the years to save money to do more than 200 guns, that like Liu Lang such a tyrant, a cannon is nearly 40,000 oceans, not to mention, a cannonball is 60 oceans, hundreds of shells out that is 6,000 oceans.

Where is this war, it's completely compared to losing money!

Looking at the firing range of the two guns, the Bofors Mountain Cannon is 9,000 meters, and the Jinzao Type 13 is 6,000 meters, which exceeds nearly half of the range.

Crushing, complete crushing.

This is the unanimous thought in the hearts of all the generals and colonels of the Jin Sui Army after listening to Liu Lang's introduction.

In fact, they were not wrong, the two Bofors mountain guns of the Independent Regiment had fully proved their excellent performance in the battle of the Great Wall.

Not only is the range of more than half of the 41-type mountain gun hitting the Japanese mountain artillery all over the ground, but the accuracy of the Bofors mountain gun is half that of a sniper rifle is its most terrifying.

At the height of the battle, Zhao Ergou even pushed the Bofors mountain gun out of the tunnel and moved it to the mountains and forests only 300 meters away from the front line to shoot at the Japanese 155-mm heavy howitzers with a range of more than 10,000 meters.

Because the power of the 6.3 kg grenade was too small, it did not pose much threat to the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, but it also suppressed the arrogant heavy artillery brigade of the Japanese army, and won a respite for the infantry on the position.

It can be said that from the day the Bofors mountain cannon was born, the 41 mountain cannon equipped by the army today has been synonymous with scum, if the number of cannons on both sides is about the same.

"I'm afraid of a ball! Isn't it just an imported foreign gun! No matter how good the weapon is, it has to be fought by people, go, tell the brothers in the artillery battalion that as long as they fight well, no matter whether they win or lose, each person will be rewarded with ten yuan. This money Lao Tzu Li Fu came out. Comrade Lao Li slapped the table and shouted.

Liu Lang smiled slightly, I have to say that the most unlucky general in the history of the Anti-Japanese War still has a bit of a soldier's personality, at least Liu Lang doesn't hate him now, and even likes him a little.

Then, Comrade Lao Li turned his face and said a word, which made Liu Lang like him even more.

Why? I've met the same kind! The shamelessness of Comrade Li, who has completely let go of his heart and is not cheeky, has made Liu Lang already think about whether to have in-depth exchanges with this candlestick night talk.

"Commander Liu, the artillery who operates the artillery doesn't need anyone else, just use the artillery platoon that fought the bayonet before! Tell the brothers, whether the fight is good or bad, it doesn't matter, the reward of ten oceans per person is mine. ”

。。。。。。

The rest of the generals of the Jin Sui Army looked strange.

Dare to be affectionate, the master said before that it was not better than that, but it was just to retreat into that! Didn't you see that he had already selected the opponent to participate in the competition? They didn't believe that the cannons were about to push in front of them, and the division commander couldn't see it as if it were air.

Yan Qiwu, the commander of the artillery battalion of the 278th Regiment who was on standby, could only throw an apologetic look at Zhao Ergou, who was also standing upright beside him, that means don't you blame me for bullying your artillery platoon, this is what the commanders on both sides meant.

It wasn't until the third platoon of artillery sent by Zhao Ergou won the elite veterans selected by his 278th Regiment in a crushing posture in the stabbing technique, that Yan Qiwu finally believed that this platoon was really the third platoon, and it was the third platoon that Zhao Ergou carried shells every day.

Otherwise, they would be so "unprofessional" to play with the things that only the infantry played.

Whole side business every day, of course the main business is not much, right?

As the commander said, what if their cannons are awesome? In the end, it depends on the person who operates it.

On this point, Yan Qiwu, who has to fire at least 50 shells in a year's training, is still very confident, and his soldiers are definitely much stronger than most units of the national army in terms of artillery.

The rules of the shelling joust are simple.

Two guns were placed on the training ground, shelling two hills 10 miles away, and on each hill there were three earth bags, and each earth bag was placed with black powder powder that could burn quickly, and as long as it hit the target, thick smoke would appear.

Each cannon is equipped with 6 shells, that is, there are 6 chances to fire, and whoever uses the least shells to hit the most targets is the final winner.

Because there was a big artillery contest set at the beginning, the 200th Brigade had already begun to prepare for all the competitions.

Although the two small hills were barren mountains and uninhabited, the 200th Independent Brigade still sent a company to search within a radius of five miles in the vicinity, and determined that no one had piled up three large bags of earth in three different places on the two hills, and planted flags of different colors as markers.

Because the mountains of Shanxi are almost devoid of trees and only bushes, the large soil bags with flags are still very clear in artillery observation instruments and binoculars.

One is located at the foot of the mountain, one is located on the mountainside, and the other is at the top of the mountain.

If you don't have the skills to reach your home, you may not even be able to hit the mountain, let alone put on a dirt bag that is no more than the size of a house.

However, the artillery squad under Yan Qiwu judged from the skillful reporting of various data by the two artillery observers, and a series of operations such as skillfully swinging and manipulating the artillery.

It should not be the first time that they have trained for such shelling.

The distance of 5,000 meters is almost to the limit of the range for the Jinzao Type 13 mountain artillery, but it is too close for the Bofors mountain gun with a range of up to 9,000 meters.

Geng Dashan didn't even participate in the command himself, he just lit a cigarette and squatted next to watch his squad busily carry out various preparations before the shelling.

Bofors Mountain Artillery, although it is the two big treasures of the artillery company, will never be stingy with training just because it is a baby. No matter which platoon it was, they used these two baby bumps to conduct live-fire training with fifty rounds of artillery shells.

Geng Dashan also has the confidence of victory.
