Xiao Feng quit immediately after hearing Chen Zulin's words, "Old Chen, what do you mean? If you want to change the political commissar, just report it. Don't complain here."
Chen Zulin curled his lips and said, "You are naughty, did I say that to you? I said that Sui Daolian from our artillery company is usually so awesome that asking him to fire a few rounds is like asking him to borrow his wife. And even if he shoots It’s not accurate, and they are looking for various excuses. You see, Political Commissar Zhao doesn’t even need to tell us that the shell directly hit the vital point, and his combat awareness is definitely not something to be ignored!”
Xiao Feng breathed out, "Political Commissar Zhao is a top student who graduated from Yan University. He also studied at Anti-Japanese University for two years. He is good at literature and martial arts. Even if he doesn't become a political commissar, he is more than enough to be a regiment leader. Okay, don't complain. , pay attention to the situation on the battlefield. If precise artillery fire is needed, don’t forget to notify Political Commissar Zhao on the walkie-talkie.”
Chen Zulin handed the binoculars to Xiao Feng, "Look, the political commissar is so accurate. Do you need us to remind you?"
Xiao Feng took the telescope and looked at it for a while, "Although I'm not good at fighting, this is the first time I fought as comfortably as I did today."
"It's a pity that we are too poor. Although the artillery cover is good, we really can't afford it. With this density of artillery fire, all the houses in our division will probably be hit tonight."
"Just now you said that the commander of the fifth company was reluctant to use bullets and fire to suppress it. Now that he sees the intensive artillery fire, you are starting to feel distressed again?"
"I feel sorry for our commander."
"Okay, let's take the station first." Xiao Feng said and handed the binoculars to Zhao Zulin.
The Eighth Route Army's advancement speed on the battlefield has increased a lot, but it is still not very fast, because the mute heavy machine gun began to fire again, and at the same time two more light machine guns began to roar.
"It still doesn't work!" Zhao Zulin, who was holding the telescope, once again had a sad look on his face. "The enemy's concrete fortifications are too strong. The 92 artillery and mortars cannot explode. Even if they kill the machine gunners, they can't." Quickly fill positions through traffic trenches.”
"Then what are you going to do?"
"Unless there are heavy artillery! Otherwise we can only risk people's lives!" Zhao Zulin said and pulled out his gun. "Sitting here will affect the command efficiency. I have to go to the front line and lead the soldiers to rush forward at one go. Otherwise, the enemy's firepower , Our successive attacks can only be regarded as fueling tactics. According to this battle loss, the next Niangzi Pass will definitely not be defeated."
"I'll go too!" Xiao Feng also checked his own guns and planned to join Zhao Zulin. "I also learned some artillery knowledge when I was at the Anti-Japanese University. I can't shoot artillery, but I have a problem reporting the coordinates."
Looking at Xiao Feng, Zhao Zulin thought for a moment, "Okay! Follow me then, and you will tell Political Commissar Zhao where to hit whichever firepower point I ask you to hit."
At the artillery position not far from the fifth regiment's position, Zhao Gang was holding the gun scope and looking intently at the situation on the battlefield. When he saw that artillery support was needed, he immediately reported a parameter, and then the loud-voiced messenger informed him.
Gun scopes are very scarce supplies and should not be equipped by independent regiments. However, Li Yunlong bought one in line with the character of a wild goose plucking its feathers.
With this gun scope, Zhao Gang's skill in shooting has increased a little.
The soldiers of the fifth regiment on the battlefield advanced a little again, and Zhao Gang also saw Zhao Zulin in the gun scope who had rushed to the front line. With his joining, the originally loose battle line stabilized. At the same time, there was also a sound in the earphones. Xiao Feng's voice came, "Leopard Head is calling Master, please answer when you receive it!"
Zhao Gang held the earphones with one hand and pressed the PTT button with the other hand, "Master, received it!"
"Is there any way to shoot down those two heavy machine guns at once?" Xiao Feng said on the walkie-talkie.
Zhao Gang pondered for a moment, "I need to wait a moment, I need to verify the power of the new shells."
"how long!"
"three minutes!"
"Do you need to cooperate?"
"not needed for now!"
After the simple communication ended, Zhao Gang stood up straight and said to the person on the side, "Ask Dong Jinbao if his special cannonball has been modified? If it is done, let him take the cannonball to the No. 2 gun position!"
"Yes!" The messenger ran to deliver the order.
Zhao Gang took a few deep breaths and was a little nervous, because he was about to shoot Dong Jinbao's secret cannonball.
Zhao Gang didn't know Dong Jinbao, but he still knew Dong Jinbao's name. After all, the reward of three hundred small yellow croakers in the newspaper twice was beyond the reach of ordinary people. In addition, he turned out to be Li Yunlong's soldier and got some from Li Yunlong. It was confirmed that this made him look forward to the artillery shells made by Dong Jinbao.
When Dong Jinbao passed by the fifth regiment's position, he took the initiative to ask to stay and renovate ammunition.
The war was about to begin, and the regiment leader Zhao Zulin didn't think much and let him stay. However, out of protection, the commander of the second division did not place him at the front line, but put him in the artillery position, because there was a company here. The soldiers are responsible for the vigilance, and there will definitely be no accidents.
Dong Jinbao's progress in transforming cannonballs is not very fast, because he can only do this work by himself, and he can only transform one round in ten minutes.
When he heard that new artillery shells were about to be fired, Dong Jinbao immediately picked up the artillery shells and prepared to go to the No. 2 artillery position. However, as soon as he took two steps, he heard a voice he least wanted to hear, "Dabao, wait for me!"
Ji Wushuang's voice almost made Dong Jinbao stumble. He turned back and glanced at Ji Wushuang not far away, "Miss, this is the front line, an artillery position. I don't know when the Japanese artillery shells will fall. I I don’t have the energy to protect you now.”
After saying that, Dong Jinbao continued to run towards the No. 2 gun position with the shell in his arms.
Ji Wushuang saw Dong Jinbao running away and quickly chased after him, "Wait for me for a while!"
The No. 2 artillery position is a 92 artillery piece in the best condition, which Zhao Gang brought from the Independent Regiment. He took a certain risk by letting Dong Jinbao use this good artillery, because if the shell modified by Dong Jinbao had some flaws, it would explode. If this happens, then this good cannon will be scrapped. If such a situation really occurs, Li Yunlong will definitely get on his horse and come over to give Dong Jinbao a beating.
After Dong Jinbao arrived at gun position No. 2, he immediately put down the shells and took over the loader's position.
Because of Zhao Gang's order, the soldiers at the gun position had already been prepared. After Dong Jinbao changed the shells, he immediately raised the chess piece in his hand and shouted loudly, "No. 2 gun position is in place!"
After Zhao Gang on the small mountain gun saw that No. 2 gun position was ready, he immediately picked up the telescope, observed the battlefield situation, and pressed the PTT button, "Master, call Leopard Head, please answer after receiving it!"
"Leopard head received!"
"Test the artillery in one minute, the target is at one o'clock, the enemy's firepower point No. 4!" (End of this chapter)
