1464 It's Too Late

The Japanese scouts at the observation post heard the signal from Shinichi Abe and immediately notified the 301st Artillery Wing, and the commander of the wing, Yunan Kishimoto, heard that there were more than 300 artillery pieces on the position of Lin Yuan's troops, and his eyes lit up with excitement, and he immediately ordered the troops: "Fire at the position of the Shina people!" ”

The Japanese army immediately opened the cover door outside the cave, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers pushed the cannon to the door together, aiming the muzzle of the cannon at the sky, due to the obstruction of the mountain in front, the Japanese artillery could not see the position of Lin Yuan's troops at all, and the only thing they knew was the location information sent by the reconnaissance post.

The Japanese army laid telegraph and telephone lines between the reconnaissance posts and the artillery positions, and during the construction of the fortifications, the Japanese military top brass once strongly advocated the use of radio, but the Japanese experts decisively pointed out: "Radio communications can be jammed in principle, although it is not clear whether the Lin troops are equipped with jammers, but this possibility should be considered." So the Japanese army abandoned the wireless communication scheme and switched to wired communication.

The Japanese gunners adjusted the muzzles according to the position information transmitted by the telegram, and the ammunition men activated the elevator to lift the shells from the ammunition depot below, which weighed nearly 50 kilograms each, so it was impossible to use manpower to carry them up.

The four Japanese soldiers carried the cannonball, put it into the barrel, lifted the cartridge and put it in, closed the bolt, pressed the firing button, and the muzzle suddenly emitted thick smoke, and the shell flew towards the position of Lin Yuan's troops with a loud noise.

There were some fighters left on the position of Lin Yuan's troops, these fighters were there to confuse the Japanese scouts, they had already received orders to retreat as soon as they heard the shells coming, and the faster they ran, the better, so they retreated when the shells came, and no one was injured. Shinichi Abe, who was in the distance, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw them retreating, and laughed loudly at his subordinates: "The people of Shina have been frightened by our cannons, and they have fled like rats!" ”

The Japanese artillery exploded on the position, collapsing a bunker, and the reconnaissance post saw that the artillery hit the position, and immediately asked the artillery to maintain the current position, but only a few Japanese artillery in the mountains maintained the position, because the Japanese artillery was built on the mountain, and the position was relatively scattered, unlike the artillery deployed on the position, which was arranged in a linear pattern, as long as one test fire, other artillery could fire shells according to the position of this test fire.

Therefore, the Japanese army needs to conduct multiple test firings to guide the shooting of different artillery groups, and the Japanese artillery groups have a total of five, each with 20 heavy guns, so the Japanese scouts need to guide the artillery group to five test firings.

The second test-fired shell fell on the edge of the position, and the violent explosion instantly tore apart a fortification, and at this time, Shinichi Abe saw that something was wrong!

Abe Shin watched the barrel of an artillery cannon be blown out of the cannon by the shock wave generated by the explosion, and thought in surprise: "The connection between the barrel of the cannon and the gun body is quite tight, and putting explosives at the connection may not be able to blow the barrel out of the gun, and now the shell is exploding next to the artillery, and it can actually blow the barrel out of the gun?" ”

The more Abe Shinichi thought about it, the more he wondered, and hurriedly picked up the telescope to look at the position of Lin Yuan's troops, and in the process of looking, the other three test projectiles fell on the ground, and more gun barrels were blown out of the air, and Abe Shinichi suddenly captured a surprising scene in the telescope: a cannon barrel was burning!

Shinichi Abe suddenly felt like a second King Kong - confused, thinking, "The barrel of the cannon is made of steel, how can it burn?" Isn't the artillery of the Chinese made of steel? What the hell is going on? Abe Shinichi thought about it, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he shouted, "No, no, no! We were deceived, there was no artillery on the positions of the Chinese people at all, and those artillery pieces were simply made of paper! Oh my God, cunning Shina! ”

Abe Shinichi shouted a few words and said to the messenger beside him: "Hurry up and notify the observation post, let them notify the artillery position, don't fire any more, the artillery on the artillery position is fake, Lin Yuan's troops want to Lang our shells!" ”

The communications soldier didn't have time to ask more, so he immediately turned on the radio and shouted: "Stop shooting, hurry, stop shooting!" But there was no reply, and the communication soldier said helplessly: "Captain, it's not good, Lin Yuan's troops have once again interfered with our communications!" It turned out that Lin Yuan's troops thought of the Japanese army sending scouts to reconnoiter at close range, and also expected that it was impossible for scouts to carry telephone lines because the distance was too far after all, so they used jammers to interfere with the Japanese army's communications.

Shinichi Abe said, "Hurry up and get on the horse, let's go back." "But it was too late, the Japanese artillery group had completed the preparations for test firing, and the large-scale artillery bombardment had begun, and the shells flew like locusts to the position of Lin Yuan's troops, and the position of Lin Yuan's troops was full of fire and snow for a while! Abe Shinichi listened to the sound of the cannons, looked at the firelight, gritted his teeth in anger, and said angrily: "Damn the Shina, I don't know how many cannonballs Lang cost us!" ”

Xiao Yingwu and Lei Ming heard the sound of cannonballs, and jumped up from their chairs in excitement, from building fake fortifications to later making "paper cannons", they had put in too much effort, and now that the plan was finally successful, they couldn't help but not be excited!

Lei Ming suppressed his excited voice and said loudly: "Adjust the radar beam direction, aim at the direction of the shell, and start calculating!" Suddenly there was a sound of tapping on the keyboard in the radar operation room, which was connected with the sound of the computer fan turning.

According to the trajectory of the aerial shells, the operators called the ballistic calculation program stored in the electronic computer, and entered the environmental parameters into it, and soon obtained the possible location coordinates of the launch point, there are many Japanese shells, in the calculation program, each shell will be counted as a launch point, absolutely impossible to be the same! Therefore, after obtaining the possible coordinates of the launch point, the operators began to analyze and judge, and grouped together the coordinates with similar location points, and gradually obtained 100 location coordinates.

The operator then mobilized the terrain fitting program to fit the 100 positional coordinates to the actual terrain, and this process continued until the end of the Japanese shelling, and the final result was obtained. Lei Ming called Xiao Yingwu to him, pointed to the screen of the electronic computer and said, "Division Commander Xiao, you see, this is the possible location of the enemy's artillery position. ”

Xiao Yingwu saw that there was a three-dimensional topographic map in front of him, on which the possible location of the artillery positions was marked with red circles, Xiao Yingwu nodded and said: "Lin Shuai is right, these artillery positions are indeed behind the high mountains opposite us. ”

Lei Ming asked, "Now that we know the location of the enemy's artillery, how can we destroy them?" ”

Xiao Yingwu thought for a while and said, "Inform Lin Shuai and let the Air Force deal with them." ”

Xiao Yingwu immediately told Lin Yuan the location coordinates, and Lin Yuan got the topographic maps marked with red circles and sneered in his heart: "Little devil, do you think that we will have no way to take you if you hide behind the mountain?" You don't think we have artillery monitoring radars, do you? Now that we know where you are, your end is near! ”
