"Lower the muzzle angle by five degrees. The target distance is five hundred meters! Load the shells!" the artillery lieutenant loudly ordered his soldiers.
Under the operation of the soldiers, the two PaK anti-tank guns lined up in a straight line slowly lowered their muzzles and aimed at the iron door five hundred meters away.
The artillery lieutenant watched the soldiers adjust the angle of the artillery muzzle, and then said loudly: "Load the artillery shell! Get ready to shoot!"
Through the telescope, Zhang Tianhai watched this scene with great interest. For him, this was the first time he saw artillery fire during the Republic of China.
"Sir, the shells have been loaded."
"Sir, the shells have been loaded."
The gunners of the two anti-tank guns reported loudly, and the atmosphere at the scene was tense.
"fire!!"
At an order from the artillery lieutenant, the two gunners fired.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
With the sound of two dull cannons, the shells burst out of the muzzle with a screaming sound.
The extremely high muzzle velocity of the cannonball when it was fired caused the cannonball to fully rub against the air, causing the temperature to rise sharply. It suddenly emitted a burst of light, like a meteor that flashed by at high speed during the day.
"Hey~Duang!!!"
"Hey~Duang!!!"
The two shells hit the iron door with a scream, causing a burst of sparks, and then two extremely loud steel collisions, louder than the sound the monk made when he rang the bell. Several times, and sharper!
The shell hits the target!
The iron gate blocking the attack of the 216th Regiment finally slowly fell down.
"Brothers, rush!!!"
The commander of the third battalion, Gu Xinheng, stood up, holding his pistol high, and then the charge bugle sounded.
The commander of the third battalion personally led the charge. His tall back looked like a moving military flag to the soldiers, and they followed behind him.
"Da da da da da~ da da da~"
The charge horn was blowing, and the flag bearer was charging with the red army flag in the blue sky and white sun on the ground. The flag clearly read "National Revolutionary Army-The 36th Army Infantry Division"!
Countless soldiers wearing Central Army uniforms and German-made M-35 helmets were rushing forward. Their target was the Japanese army behind the iron door!
Everyone present, whether it was Hu Jiaji, Fang Ren, Zhang Tianhai, Guo Qiliang and others, were all excited - they could finally annihilate the stubborn enemy entrenched at Huishan Wharf.
"Let's go, help me go to the artillery lieutenant!" Hu Jiaji ordered the two guards around him.
The position where the artillery bombarded the iron gate was not far from where Hu Jiaji and others were, just a few steps away.
When the artillery lieutenant saw an officer with two stripes and three stars on his collar coming over, he immediately led his subordinates to stand at attention and salute: "Hello, sir, Ye Shending, commander of the first company of the division's artillery battalion, would like to say hello to you!"
Hu Jiaji nodded lightly and said: "I am Hu Jiaji, the commander of the 216th Regiment. I want to order you to move the artillery forward and try to knock out the Japanese firepower points with one shot! In order to reduce our army's casualties!"
"Yes! Sir! However, there is no need to move the artillery forward. May I ask, sir, if you can lend me a telescope to Beizhi? Beizhi's telescope was damaged by a stray bullet on the front line!" Ye Shending said loudly.
"Okay, this is the best. Staff Guo, give me my binoculars to Company Commander Ye!" Hu Jiaji turned around and ordered Guo Qiliang.
"Yes." With that, Guo Qiliang took off the telescope hanging around his neck and handed it to Ye Shending.
After Ye Shending took over the telescope, he first observed the situation on the front line, and then issued a series of combat instructions: "No. 1 gun, maximum muzzle elevation, 600 meters away, rest two degrees to the right, single shot rapid fire! emission!"
The No. 1 gunner made a series of actions under the orders of the company commander, which was dazzling and completely incomprehensible to Guo Qiliang.
However, Zhang Tianhai still roughly understands how to operate this type of artillery with a relatively simple structure. As for the subdivision, there are still some places where professional gunners are not as proficient as them.
After all, Zhang Tianhai was the squadron leader of the Marine Corps' ace squadron in his previous life. What are the training standards of the Marine Corps? That is the necessary and proper standard for special forces. If an ace unit like the Marine Corps can still be called an ace, it must be an all-round special force.
Such as artillery firing, reporting bombardment directions, satellite system intrusion, parachuting, vehicle and ship driving, torture and counter-torture, etc. These are the most basic training contents. After all, such an extremely elite unit mostly performs operations behind enemy lines during wartime. These important missions include sabotage missions, beheading missions, destroy important enemy targets, and more.
It is precisely because of the emergence of new types of warfare and precision warfare that the ace troops like Zhang Tianhai are required to have solid basic skills and be able to undertake the execution of these tasks.
As the squadron leader, Zhang Tianhai had to have solid basic skills, so he could understand the scene in front of him.
"Bang!!!"
The gunner pulled the pull rope, and a machine gun point six hundred meters away exploded.
…
"Call for naval gun support, call for naval gun support! The Chinese have artillery, the Chinese have artillery!!!" Xiao Inu Yijiro shouted loudly to the radio. For their group of wealthy navies, the most advanced equipment, They must be equipped first, and then the army.
In the end, Koinu Yijiro did not wait for his naval gun support, and could only rely on shore artillery and firepower that was not powerful at all.
Since Yangshupu Naval Pier is under fierce attack by the Chinese army, the naval gun firepower of the Third Fleet has been adjusted there.
"Warriors of the Empire of Japan, today, we will sleep in this foreign land forever! For the Empire of Japan, we will fight to the end with them! Long live!!!" Xiao Inu Yijiro shouted hysterically.
The surrounding Japanese troops saw that the commander, Lieutenant Colonel Xiao Quan, had entered a state of madness, and they also became crazy. They saw them shouting the slogan "Long live" crazily and rushing out of the bunker with their rifles with bayonets attached.
Gu Xinheng, who had already fought with the Japanese in 1932, naturally knew what these little Japanese wanted to do - a bayonet fight? How can it be as you wish? !
"Just shoot them! Don't fight with the bayonet, don't fight with the bayonet!!!" Gu Xinheng yelled, fearing that the soldiers around him wouldn't understand.
This battle has gone crazy!
