On a flat ground under the hillside, the devil's artillery had already set up a position. Since they are not in the plains, their artillery cannons are not arranged neatly and look a bit messy. A commander of the artillery unit is carefully checking the shooting elements. Then he shouted loudly: "Cannon No. 1, prepare for test firing."
Even if they have decided to shoot Zhu Yuan, they can't directly hit a covering blow. They first have to test fire a cannon to see where the impact point of the shell is, and then correct their shooting elements according to the impact point, so that it can be safer.
After hearing his order, a 150mm howitzer nearby immediately began to load shells, and the elevation angle of the barrel was very high. This is to be able to fly over the mountain ahead. It was too challenging for them to shoot in such a place. However, their artillery is a professional and technical unit after all. They have all been trained in military academies, so this challenge can still be followed.
Just as the artillerymen began to load shells, there was a rumbling sound in the distant sky. When he heard this sound, the commander of the artillery unit changed his face slightly. Is this sound thunder or an airplane? He looked up at the sky, the sky was very clear at this time, and he could see countless stars, so it was definitely not thunder. So is the plane flying over? He also knew that their own planes were not participating in this battle. In other words, the plane coming over must belong to the enemy!
Thinking of this, he wanted to give an order to suspend firing, but it was too late. The gunner of the No. 1 gun, which had been prepared long ago, pulled the gun rope fiercely. With a bang, a huge ball of fire burst out from the muzzle, instantly illuminating their entire artillery position.
Amidst the loud noise of the cannon, the huge warhead flew out, and the howling of the shells sounded in the sky. The sound overwhelmed the rumbling roar. The commander of the artillery unit looked serious, looking at the sky, not knowing what would happen next.
"His grandma, the little devil really fired, and I am ready to fight back." Li Yunlong shouted loudly, and following his shout, the shell flew over with a howling sound. On this night, if the enemy opened fire, they must first see the flames and then hear the sound. Although the enemy opened fire on the other side of the mountain, Li Yunlong could see it clearly. So, after seeing it, he gave the order.
Following his order, the artillerymen under him quickly began to prepare for shooting. They are very familiar with this area, so they can quickly determine the direction of the flames emerging from the other side of the mountain. As long as they are familiar with the terrain, they can know the exact position of the enemy's artillery deployment. A well-known gunner quickly shook the gun barrel up and down, ready to fire at that place. But they are doomed to do futile work, because someone in the sky has already seen it.
When the fireball suddenly exploded on the ground, many people on the modified c-47 aerial gunboat in the sky saw it. Qin Baoshan shouted loudly: "Attention, there is something going on below, let's fly over to have a look."
Just as Qin Baoshan shouted, Cochran stepped on the rudder, pushed the joystick, and their plane flew over there.
Cochrane has also seen the scene on the ground, and as a pilot, her eyesight is very good, especially when she came to China as a pilot of an air refueling plane, and she originally flew at night. It was the most suitable environment for her. She looked down and saw the little devil's artillery position in the flames, and even saw the details inside. So after Qin Baoshan finished shouting, Cochran replied: "The enemy's artillery positions are below."
Hearing what Cochran said, Qin Baoshan couldn't help but feel emotional. This Cochrane is definitely a night owl, and he just saw a ball of flames below, and Cochrane saw the artillery positions of the devils illuminated by the flames. And I also saw the uniforms of the devil soldiers in the position, knowing that this is the devil's position.
Flying in the dark night does not guarantee the precise heading. Below them may be the devil's position, and it may also be the Eighth Route Army's position. Only when you can see clearly can you fire, otherwise, you will hit the wrong target. Now that Qin Baoshan heard the news that Cochran confirmed the target, without the slightest doubt, he immediately shouted to the people around him: "Attention everyone, prepare to fight!"
Originally, Qin Baoshan planned to fly over and land first. After landing on the ground, he would find someone to find out the specific situation, determine the location of the little devil and the Eighth Route Army, and then fly up to fight. It's best to wait until the daytime tomorrow, but now that he has caught up, Qin Baoshan is unambiguous. Qin Baoshan was talking, pulled the safety of the cannon, and began to prepare for shooting.
However, someone is faster than Qin Baoshan, of courseIt was Wang Xikui. Wang Xikui shot very accurately. Later, as the Eighth Route Army gradually began to have artillery, Wang Xikui began to operate artillery again. At the beginning, he operated anti-aircraft machine guns, and then anti-aircraft guns, so he also got used to the operation of these weapons. After going to heaven this time, Wang Xikui was full of energy and wanted to make greater military exploits, and now he was finally about to get his wish.
Wang Xikui sat on the emplacement of the Bofors anti-aircraft gun. At this time, the cabin door was open. Only he did not re-open the cabin. He directly used the open hatch to let him aim and shoot, which made it easier wide field of vision.
When Qin Baoshan shouted to prepare to shoot, Wang Xikui had already pressed the firing button. There were three cannon blasts, and flames came out of his muzzle. Among the three cannonballs, one was traced, so when the cannonball flew out, a bright line was drawn in the sky.
This method will definitely expose the location of the plane in the sky, but it can also correct the trajectory of the machine gun, so this is also necessary. At this time, when the bright line is drawn, it will be spotted by the devil artillery on the ground immediately. They opened their eyes wide, watching the bright line appearing in the sky quickly draw towards them. Then they were surprised to find that the extension of this bright line was on the firing cannon!
Boom, boom, amid the sound of three shells, a 40mm high-explosive shell accurately hit the vicinity of this howitzer. One of the shells successfully landed on the shell ammunition box beside it. In the next second, there was a bang, and an even louder explosion sounded. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
