Chapter 1436, Give warmth to the little devil(2/3)
The Japanese invaders have no plan to go up the river yet. So, can they take the initiative?
Allocate part of the mobile troops to launch a counterattack.
Take advantage of the fact that the Japanese are currently focused on the Central Plains battlefield and attack the Japanese flanks.
If possible, threaten Jinling directly.
However, a large-scale battle requires the cooperation of the third theater. Gu Zhutong is also a big idiot...
"Commissioner Zhang."
"Commander-in-Chief Xu."
Xu Kang arrived. Zhang Yong took back his thoughts.
Mobilizing the third theater is too big a move. Why not cooperate with the Jiang Defense Corps?
The Jiang Defense Corps seems to have ships? Although they are for civilian use, they can be transported!
Transport a battalion and arrive near Wuhu. Go ashore. Then use 107 rocket launchers to open the way. Let the Japanese invaders in Wuhu suffer a little first.
By the time the Japanese invaders came to their senses, they had already slipped away.
right!
The previous plan can be realized.
Hit and run.
Come back again.
Fully implement the great man's sixteen-character policy. The Japanese invaders will torture no one but no one, no matter whether they are ghosts or ghosts.
"Commander Xu, please just tell us what's going on."
"Commissioner Zhang, I'm really sorry. I heard you have a lot of connections..."
"Want weapons and ammunition?"
"Mine."
"How many are needed?"
“The more, the merrier.”
"Commander Xu, mines are big things. They don't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. You can't use them indiscriminately!"
"Of course not. We are stationed near the defense zone."
"Okay. I'll think of a way."
Zhang Yong agreed. In fact, he has it now.
However, he couldn't give it to Xu Kang now because the other party might really use it randomly.
There is too much chaos in the national army. The lower limit is refreshed frequently.
You can use a big killer weapon like mines in the river section below Wuhu, but above...
If you are not careful, you will blow up one of your own.
My troops are still in Anqing. I may also frequently travel by boat between Anqing and Jiujiang.
If you are killed by one of your own mines, don't worry.
Let's wait until the Japanese invaders attack.
"Thanks."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief Xu. How many transport ships do you have now?"
"If it's a small steamer, there are some. Maybe twenty or thirty ships. Commissioner Zhang, what do you want to transport?"
"An infantry battalion. About five hundred men. And some weapons."
"That's not much. Ten small steamers are enough. If you need it, I can deploy it now..."
"We need to go from Anqing to Wuhu at night and then return from Wuhu."
"If you go down the river, it may take five hours. But if you go upstream, it may take more than ten hours."
"No problem. I will be responsible for the oil supply."
"Then I'll arrange it immediately."
Xu Kang immediately sent people to mobilize the ships and gather them at Anqing Pier.
Zhang Yong arranged for transport ships to deliver oil.
Unfortunately, the system's transport ship cannot be given away directly.
On the contrary, if it is a carriage, train, etc., after it is delivered, the system will not need it.
Only transport ships need to be reused.
Otherwise, the transport ship provided by the system is equipped with a 107 rocket launcher and used directly as a gunboat.
Not to mention, for a gunboat with such fierce firepower, there is no second option.
Moreover, the transport ship can also carry a large number of rockets, which can be used for a long time.
Wait until there are more 107 rocket launchers, then do this.
Just use it to make a gunboat.
Later it swept across both sides of the Yangtze River.
"Commander Wu!"
"arrive."
"Deploy an infantry battalion and follow me tonight."
"yes."
Wu Keren immediately went to make arrangements.
Soon, a battalion was assembled. They were all elite young men.
Zhang Yong found some people to assemble the 107 rocket launcher. He personally gave instructions.
There is no problem if there is a systematic arrangement.
"This is……"
Wu Keren feels a bit like the Japanese 92 Infantry Artillery.
The barrels are also very short. I feel like the range is not very far?
The Japs' 92 Infantry Cannon has a maximum range of about three kilometers. The pile of pipes in front of me is probably about the same?
"Don't underestimate this thing. It can hit eight kilometers."
"What?"
Wu Keren was in disbelief.
Can such a short barrel shoot that far?
Eight kilometers, that's the range of the 75mm mountain cannon. The tube of the mountain cannon is much longer.
"You'll know then."
Zhang Yong did not explain in detail or conduct experiments.
No need. Products produced by the system must be high-quality products.
Take the time to train gunners.
Form an artillery company. There are only fifty people for the time being.
The main purpose is to train the speed of loading rockets. This is the key to sustained firepower.
The faster the reloading speed, the more intensive the firepower.
If there was no reload time like a game cheat, then...
hey-hey.
Quietly giggling.
All three cannons can unleash an overwhelming barrage of fire.
The Japanese invaders were dumbfounded. They thought it was an artillery division coming. It was not the size of an artillery regiment.
And all of them are large-caliber artillery. It will definitely make a mistake.
As a result, the gunner quickly became exhausted.
The 107 rocket is actually very heavy. It weighs almost forty pounds.
Continuous transportation and loading is indeed very tiring. It requires extremely high endurance and explosive power.
If it is a long-term continuous launch, fifty people are definitely not enough. They need to work in shifts.
So the army was immediately expanded. In one step, the number was increased to 120, with a major serving as the company commander.
In the evening, the small steamers of the Jiangfang Defense Corps were gathered together.
There is also a relatively large cargo ship. The deck is flat and relatively open.
This is it. Artillery position.
Ordered all three 107 rocket launchers to be moved up.
Very simple.
It's not heavy in the first place and can be carried manually.
After it is completely dismantled, it does not even require animal power. It only needs people to carry it.
It is very friendly to the national army who lacks transportation means.
To be continued...
