8.17 Simple "Big Killer"

Red Temple, the front of the Japanese position. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After a moderate round of artillery bombardment, Song Xilian's 71st Army began to attack the Japanese positions.

The defensive positions painstakingly managed by the Japanese sappers are indeed not to be underestimated! Bullets were flying everywhere in the night sky, and the roars of light and heavy machine guns could be heard through the mechanism, and it was not easy for the first attack echelon and the two battalions of the 88th Division to get close to the devil's defensive line.

"Tell the 88th Division! They must attract the devil's firepower! Order the second echelon to immediately go to the attack! Even if you use a pile of people, you have to give an hour to the guard regiment of Huang Vice-Seat! ”

Song Xilian in the trenches gave orders while observing the battlefield, and the chief of staff standing behind him commanded the staff officers of the military headquarters to quickly convey Song Xilian's orders:

"Yes! Send someone to inform the second echelon! Attack now! Remember that they didn't want to take the Japanese position, just stick to the front! ”

After two more battalions were put into the front of the Japanese position, the battle gradually entered a phase of stalemate, and a delicate balance appeared on the battlefield. On this side, the Chinese army did not have the ability to break through the Japanese defensive circle, and the Japanese army on the opposite side could not repel all the Chinese troops.

What Song Xilian has to do now is to try to keep this stalemate situation for a little longer, so that Xu Zilong can have time to deliver their "big killer" in place......

Twenty minutes after the 71st Army launched its attack, the phone rang in the 59th Wing Wing headquarters. Itanishi Ichira Osa picked up the phone, and the voice of Yamamoto Nakasa, the captain of the first brigade, came from the other end:

"Your Excellency, the Chinese army opposite us is behaving very strangely, just blindly lying in front of our army's position and refusing to leave, and I can't see that they have the determination to attack! Shouldn't the tank units be allowed to fight back? ”

Itanishi Ichira has been observing the battle with a telescope since he retreated to the bunker where the wing headquarters is located, and he has also seen the "abnormal behavior" of the Chinese army, but Itanishi Kazura has a completely different perspective from Yamamoto Nakasa.

"Nakasa Yamamoto! Please keep your cool! If you can think about it, you'll soon see what's wrong......"

Itanishi Ikirashi's voice was full of pride, and Yamamoto Nakasa on the other end of the phone immediately understood that his co-captain His Excellency was about to show off his "wisdom" again.

"Forgive me for my stupidity! Your Excellency, Wing Commander! Please advise! ”

Yamamoto Nakasa's low profile satisfied the vanity of Itanishi Kazura Osa, and he raised his head and looked around the wing headquarters, and every officer who was watched by Itanishi Ichira showed a smile of "admiration" to Itanishi Kazura Osa.

"Nakasa Yamamoto! Actually, it's very simple! These soldiers in front of you don't have the courage to win at all! They were intimidated by the strong fortifications! That's why I came up with such a clumsy solution, hoping to lure our 59th Wing out of position! Yamamoto-kun! You don't even have to pay attention to them! It's nighttime, and we have no way of knowing what kind of trap the Shina people have prepared in the night! Your brigade must hold out! Wait until the main force of the division arrives tomorrow during the day, and it will be the moment of our decisive battle with the people of China! ”

Itanishi Kazura Daisa's words made Yamamoto Nakasa "suddenly", and Hashitachi Nakasa, who stayed in the wing headquarters, also applauded on the side. In this way, Itanishi Kazura Daisa has become even more proud! Itanishi Kazura Daisa, who was in a good mood, decided to add a few more words into the phone microphone:

"Tell the soldiers in the first line of defense that they can wait for the Chinese army to approach within 100 meters before shooting! If necessary, you can also shrink from the first line of defense to the second line of defense, and then launch a short-distance surprise attack with the chariot troops, taking advantage of the unstable foothold of the Chinese army and killing them by surprise! ”

"Your Excellency Wing Commander is so wise! I guess Oda Nobunaga was just like that, right? ”

Hashitachi Nakasa's sycophants are getting more and more explicit, and under the extreme relaxation, Itanishi Kazura Osa actually asked Hashitachi Nakasa to find two comfort women for him, and he enjoyed Japanese songs and dances in the bunker!

***************************************************

Xu Zilong's "trick" is actually a bunch of gasoline barrels and a bunch of explosive bags tied into various shapes! Combine these two things and it becomes the famous "Flying Thunder"!

The more standardized name of the "flying thunder" should be the "explosive bag projectile", which is actually a kind of equipment that uses an iron barrel as a cannon barrel to throw explosive packets. Generally, each "flying thunder" is loaded with about 10 kilograms of explosives, like a big watermelon, which can be shot out one or two hundred meters away, so this kind of "flying thunder" is very powerful!

The person who proposed to create this "strange weapon" was naturally Huang Haoran, but because Huang Haoran had only seen such a "flying thunder" in later film and television works, he could only put forward a concept, and the specific research work had to be carried out by the artillery and engineers of the 25th Group Army!

Fortunately, the concept proposed by Huang Haoran already included the main components of the "Flying Thunder": iron gasoline barrels, explosive packs tied with ropes, and pill packs placed under the explosives packets as propellants, so after the Battle of Taierzhuang, the 25th Group Army only took a small time to produce the real thing.

The engineer regiment of the 25th Army used a gasoline drum with a length of one meter and a diameter of half a meter as a projectile, filled with a large amount of gunpowder as a push charge, and after ignition, the explosive package was thrown out, and the fuse on the explosive package was also ignited.

However, there are still many problems that need to be solved by this kind of projectile, such as the ballistic trajectory is basically unpredictable, how to fly, and the amount of explosive package can only be loaded with experience, the launch crater needs to be dug again after each launch, and the range is too close. According to Shi Cannon, this kind of "flying thunder" is a time bomb that will explode at any time, and he may blow up his own people before he can hit it!

Later, with Huang Haoran's strong support, the sappers solved many defects of the "flying thunder" in the test, and not only came up with the method of tying the explosives into the shape of a round cannonball at the front and the back, but also scientifically improved the amount of propellant and the amount of explosives, and installed a simple sight on the top of the gasoline barrel. There are even people who have calculated the ballistic trajectory of the projectile after standardization. The shooting error of the "Flying Thunder" was basically controlled within 5 meters.

In this way, "Flying Thunder" has the ability to fight in real combat! According to the calculation of a standard 5-kilogram projectile explosive package, even if the fortifications within a radius of 5 meters of the landing point are not destroyed, the people inside will be shocked to death by the shock wave.

If the projectile explosives reach more than 20 kilograms, it will be difficult for people and animals within a radius of 25 meters to survive in tanks or fortifications.

After gaining successful experience, the engineer regiment of the 25th Group Army began to concentrate more on improving the "flying thunder" in order to bring into full play the maximum power of the "flying thunder." In order to deal with the devil's chariots, field fortifications, and dense formations, the bold sappers even tried to use projectile canisters to throw stones weighing several tens of kilograms and cluster grenades.

In a recent test, the sappers of the 25th Group Army successfully launched 10 kilograms of explosives with 1 pound of black medicine, and the result was a distance of 260 meters, but the deviation was only 10 meters, and the sweet potatoes within a radius of 20 meters in the bombarded sweet potato field were shocked by the shock wave and jumped out of the ground! The crater created by the explosion reached a depth of more than 1 meter! The latest products that the guard battalion is now using are made according to this standard!

Xu Zilong is confident that he will use "Flying Thunder" to teach the devil a profound lesson!

In order to create enough "flying thunder", Huang Haoran once again used the materials on the Shangqiu military column and provided a large amount of explosives to the guard regiment.

The gasoline drums used to make the "Flying Thunder" were collected from various units, and many of them were discarded by the Tufeiyuan Division during the transfer.

Thanks to Huang Haoran's active efforts, the number of "flying thunders" that the guard regiment finally put into actual combat actually reached 150!

150 Flying Mines means that 150 10-kilogram explosives can be fired at once! A full 1.5 tons of imported explosives is enough for the 59th Wing of Itanishi Ichiro Daisaku to drink a pot!

The feint attack of the 71st Army and the "passive defense" strategy of Ichira Ichizao Ichisai gave the "Flying Thunder" a stage to display, and when the second attack echelon of the 71st Army showed fatigue, the guard battalion had already placed all the "Flying Thunders"!

"Tell Commander Song! His troops can retreat! Move fast! And also! Let the artillery bombard for another two minutes, cover us! ”

It didn't take long for the units of the 71st Army to slowly retreat, while the artillery units in the rear began shelling.

"Hurry up and check the explosives pack again! All of them were tied up according to the drawings drawn by the sappers! If you make a mistake and fly to your own people's heads, the loss will be great! ”

Xu Zilong's warning was by no means untargeted, in fact, in the test of the sappers, there were no fewer cases of explosive bags flying diagonally, so the sappers would write on the drawings of the "flying thunder": "The firing range is about XX meters, and the deviation is about XX meters" Such words!

"About" means not necessarily achievable!

"Damn, the Engineer Corps actually made such a dangerous thing! Tuanza! Let the sappers use it for themselves next time! ”

A soldier squatting not far from Xu Zilong's feet muttered while checking the explosives bag, which attracted a reprimand from Xu Zilong!

"Lao Tzu also knows that 150 howitzers are good! But don't we have any? Wouldn't you not fight devils without howitzers? Do your own thing! We are the commander's guard regiment, if you miss and lose the commander's face, see if Lao Tzu doesn't pick your skin! ”

The soldier stuck out his tongue, then lowered his head and tightened the telephone line tied to the explosives bag again.

The method of tying explosives packs with telephone wires was also an invention of the engineers of the 25th Army, and it was easy to burn the ropes that bound the explosives packs at the same time when the propellant was ignited. Later, the sappers found that using a telephone line could solve this problem better.

"Prepare for ignition! Operator! Inform Commander Song of the 71st Army and tell him that they have to go up immediately after we blow up here! Time waits for no one! ”

In this way, the simple weapon of mass destruction of "Flying Thunder" finally appeared on the stage of history several years ahead of schedule!
