Firepower Point No. 4 is a small and simple bunker, which is an important firepower point currently blocking the Fifth Regiment.

This bunker has been disabled twice, but each time the Japanese shooters can quickly replenish it, which makes the advancement of the fifth regiment very uncomfortable.

And Zhao Gang now wants to eliminate this firepower point, which is exactly what Chen Zulin wants.

Zhao Gang spoke for a minute, but Chen Zulin wished that Zhao Gang could fire immediately. He glanced at his watch, then at the guard beside him, then pointed at the No. 4 firepower point and said, "Get ready, wait for the shells to fall and rush up with me immediately." , we must win this firepower point this time!”

"Yes!" the guard responded, took a grenade from his waist, and unscrewed the back cover.

About twenty seconds later, a cannonball fell from the sky with a rapid whistling sound, accurately hit the target, and made a huge explosion.

The cannon shells modified by Dong Jinbao were much louder in terms of fire and sound than the ordinary 92 cannons. This made Zhao Zulin, who was already ready to charge, stunned for a moment and even forgot to charge.

Not only did he forget to charge, but the bombardment was so powerful that the enemy's shooting stopped for a moment, but soon the enemy's machine gun roared again, but this time the machine gun on position 4 was missing from the shooting.

After the smoke cleared, Zhao Zulin, who was lying in the bunker again, raised his head and looked at the No. 4 firepower point, and found that the solid bunker had now been blown apart, like a hard turtle shell with holes in it.

Looking at the dilapidated fortifications, Zhao Zulin couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, my dear, this power looks like a heavy artillery to me?! When did our division have such a powerful weapon?"

"It's not a heavy artillery, these should be Dong Jinbao's modified artillery shells!" Political Commissar Xiao Feng said in an uncertain tone.

Zhao Zulin was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is this Dong Jinbao's modified cannonball?"

"Let me confirm." Xiao Feng said and asked the question through the intercom.

After a while, Zhao Gang gave him a clear answer.

"Spit~" Zhao Zulin spit out the sand in his mouth and said with a little resentment, "With such ability, no wonder this kid's head is worth three hundred small yellow croakers, but why didn't he take out this kind of cannonball earlier?"

"Stop complaining, just be content. You have to know that Dong Jinbao coming to our place is a surprise!" Xiao Feng said.

"Accident?" Zhao Zulin turned around and looked in confusion, "Didn't he come specifically to deliver supplies to us?"

Xiao Feng smiled, with a bit of luck, "I really don't know how you became the leader of the regiment? Place them on the front line without asking clearly? Didn't you hear Platoon Leader Lu of the Sixth Regiment say that Dong Jinbao and those few Did a patriotic student bring supplies? But these supplies are for our second division, not for our group alone, and they changed their route to Niangziguan because the road was slippery in the rain."

Zhao Zulin thought about it for a moment, "The fight was about to start when they arrived, and there were still many things that had not been explained clearly. How could I have time to take care of them? But according to what you said, our group still got an advantage?"

"You really got a bargain! You have seen the power of this modified artillery shell, it is almost catching up with the heavy artillery! The gunpowder used by Dong Jinbao to modify the artillery shell was brought from Taiyuan, and he said it was high-explosive gunpowder! He told me At that time, he just said that the power of the cannonballs could be increased a little, but he didn't expect that what he said was so big! Fuck, this guy Lu Qinglong looks so honest and honest, but he didn't expect to play tricks on us!" Xiao Feng said and couldn't help but explode. A foul language.

"What's wrong with him?" Zhao Zulin asked.

"Haha, it's nothing? He just tried his best to stop Dong Jinbao from bringing gunpowder to the front line. I guess he was afraid that we would withhold the gunpowder after seeing its power."

"Well, looking at the power of this explosion, I do have this idea. Even if the cannonball is not modified, it can be used to modify grenades. By the way, how much gunpowder is there?"

"Two hundred kilograms!"

Zhao Zulin thought for a moment and said, "Keep half of it!"

"Leave so much? Aren't you afraid that the commander will punish you!?"

"Afraid of hair!" Zhao Zulin looked like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. "Are we in the middle of a war now? He will know the exact amount of consumption. When the time comes, talk to Dong Jinbao and tell him that he will use it during the war. Yes. Well, that’s it!”

"Okay! I'll do my best!" Xiao Feng said helplessly.

"How many more cannonballs can the gunpowder Dong Jinbao brought this time be transformed into?" Without further ado, Zhao Zulin returned to the topic.

After asking Zhao Gang, Xiao Feng said, "There is only one round at the moment! And it was used for test cannon just now. However, the gunpowder Dong Jinbao brought was only fifty kilograms. It can be modified at least thirty rounds, but it takes ten minutes to modify one round. .”

"Damn it!" Chen Zulin cursed, "Ask Dong Jinbao, how many rounds of these shells does it take to knock out two heavy machine guns at once?"

Xiao Feng said to Chen Zulin after a brief exchange with Dong Jinbao, "Dong Jinbao said that at least two rounds are required, but to be on the safe side it is best to have four rounds."

"Damn it, four rounds will take an hour!" Chen Zulin muttered through gritted teeth, and then his brain quickly calculated whether to use two or four rounds.

After a while, Chen Zulin issued an order to hide and rest on the spot, and at the same time informed Zhao Gang to adopt a safe bombardment plan.

On the other side, Zhao Gang's command artillery battery also received orders to repair.

In this way, the battlefield temporarily became quiet, and Dong Jinbao returned to his position to continue modifying the shells, but at this moment there was a little tail like Ji Wushuang behind him.

Dong Jinbao began to dismantle the shells, while Ji Wushuang squatted aside and watched intently like a curious baby.

Dong Jinbao frowned, because he was not used to being looked at so seriously by a girl, so he looked up at Miss Ji and said with a grimace, "Miss, can you squat in front of me?"

"Why?" Ji Wushuang asked.

"You're blocking the light!"

"Oh~" Ji Wushuang responded and moved to the side, "Dabao! I saw it just now. Your modified artillery shells killed a Japanese bunker in one shot. It is much more powerful than the original cannonballs of the Japanese."

Dong Jinbao concentrated on dealing with the shells and said without raising his head, "The power is a bit different from what I predicted. If I have time to fine-tune the proportion of gunpowder, the power can be even greater."

"Then adjust it!" Miss Ji said.

"I don't dare to adjust it randomly now! It's not powerful enough. I'm afraid that two rounds won't be able to knock down the Japanese fortifications! Let's wait until there is nothing to do before doing the experiment. And Miss, can you stop staying in this position? To be honest, there is Just watch, I will be distracted." Dong Jinbao said a little helplessly.

"Okay!" Miss Ji happily agreed, and then she moved into the shadows with a gun on her back. (End of chapter)
