Chapter 152: Mountain Artillery Regiment
Hu Dage is a talent at vocal mimicry!
He is a specialist soldier in the Fifth Company, and furthermore, this guy also selected a few agile soldiers.
He passed on his own vocal mimicry techniques to a few gifted soldiers as well.
In this silent night sky, Hu Dage used his vocal mimicry skills to transmit messages.
The little devils wouldn't have any suspicions either.
After figuring out the location of the old devil Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post.
At the time, Yu Dawei also reported to Principal Chang, hoping to procure Schneider artillery.
Right now!
Most of the little devils were preparing to enter the barracks to rest.
At the same time, Yu Dazhu also used the microphone to call the other five artillery positions.
At this moment!
A Communications Soldier came to Yu Dazhu's side: "Dazhu!"
However, the two sides were cooperating at the time, and Germany was pushing artillery to the Far East Continent, so Principal Chang could not turn them away.
The Mountain Artillery Regiment of the 22nd Group Army, under the training of Yu Dazhu.
"No. 4... No. 5... No. 6... artillery positions are ready."
On the hillside!
Jin Jizhong saw the Group Army's Mountain Artillery Regiment wipe out Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post with the first round of shelling.
"Battalion Commander Yu has discovered the little devils' 109th Division command post."
The person in charge of each artillery position also reported their respective situations to Yu Dazhu.
The Bofors Mountain Gun can fire 9 kilometers, and this Schneider M1919 can also fire 9 kilometers.
24 artillery pieces, with their long barrels, were aimed at Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post.
The 22nd Group Army's Mountain Artillery Regiment, with so many Mountain Guns; the Sichuan Army had no mountain or field artillery.
They specifically allocated 4 Jin-made Type 41 Mountain Guns and 4 Han-made Type 41 Mountain Guns to the Sichuan Army.
Yu Hua recommended Yu Dazhu to Deng Xihou and Sun Zhen.
"Hit the dirt!!"
Germany and Gaul are mortal enemies; for this Schneider artillery to flow into the Far East Continent, isn't that slapping Germany in the face?
"Ready... Fire!!"
"Every artillery position, report the situation immediately?"
Yu Hua gave a faint smile.
But, hearing this ear-piercing sound wave, everyone began to shout.
"No. 2 artillery position is ready."
These three types of artillery can be said to be very suitable for the Far East Continent at the time, and moreover, the precision of the artillery was not at all inferior to the Bofors Mountain Gun.
Yu Dazhu is currently in the Mountain Artillery Regiment.
The little devils were in a panic.
Several staff officers of the 109th Division, as well as infantry, cavalry, and transport unit commanders.
The Schneider M1919 Mountain Gun, its power and range, were not at all inferior to the Bofors Mountain Gun.
"Every artillery piece, get into position immediately!"
They were holding a meeting in the command post; now the Sichuan Army was shelling, directly taking this wave of devils away.
Fortunately, Yu Hua had dug Yu Dazhu up back on the Songhu Battlefield.
Every artillery position also began to open the ammunition crates.
The 24 Mountain Guns' first round of shelling: ten shells hit the target, fourteen shells missed the target by five to six meters.
"Boom—!!"
The Sichuan Army possessed 12 Type 41 Mountain Guns, and on top of that, a batch of supplies had recently been shipped back from Nanyang to Yu Hua's hometown.
Because upon hearing this sound, they knew that this was definitely a large-scale bombardment.
The mules and horses of Zhongtu simply could not pull this artillery piece.
Various countries in Europe also came to the Far East Continent to promote their own products.
The ear-piercing sound wave appeared very loud in this pitch-black night sky.
The 22nd Group Army finally possessed a Mountain Artillery Regiment.
"Yes!" The Communications Soldier nodded, then picked up the microphone to call the Mountain Artillery Regiment.
Subsequently, Yu Dazhu stated the coordinates for the shelling.
This is only a 75mm Mountain Gun; if next time he had his hometown send 105mm Howitzers.
When Yu Dawei reported to Principal Chang about procuring Schneider artillery, the German military advisor became anxious.
Yu Dazhu is currently managing the Mountain Artillery Regiment temporarily.
Yu Dazhu asked urgently.
"The Republic of China Army is shelling!"
At the time, Yu Dawei of the Ordnance Administration had personally test-fired the Schneider 75mm Mountain Gun and Field Gun, as well as the 150mm Howitzer.
Several of his guards ran in, just as they were about to shout for the Division Commander to take cover.
This model of Mountain Gun is a light mountain gun, very suitable for the battlefield of the Far East Continent, and furthermore, after being disassembled, the horses and mules of Zhongtu could also pull it.
He jumped up with joy, "Brother Yu!"
He looked at the Schneider M1919 75mm Mountain Gun and walked up to stroke it.
It is a pity that at this time, China and Germany were in a honeymoon period.
This gun could completely crush the little devils' Type 41 Mountain Gun and Type 94 Mountain Gun.
Back then!
Hearing this, Yu Dazhu's eyes widened: "Alright!"
German military advisors had been serving in the Nanjing Command all along.
These artillery positions still need to be set up in several separate locations.
Countless artillery shells fell!
Having fought the devils himself, Yu Dazhu also knew the prowess of the devils' artillery.
Among this batch of supplies, there were also 12 Schneider M1919 75mm Mountain Guns.
On the artillery position, the barrels of the Mountain Guns emitted vibrating sounds.
This group of artillerymen played a huge role during the years of the War of Resistance.
They were already very proficient in operating the 75mm Mountain Gun.
"Have the Mountain Artillery Regiment prepare for bombardment."
The Bofors 75mm Mountain Gun, to be honest, this type of artillery is not suitable for the Far East Continent; it is too heavy.
Right now!
"Artillery Position No. 3 is ready!"
Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post.
"The 75mm Mountain Gun, this firepower is truly impressive."
"Discovered the 109th Division command post."
Among them were 4 of the little devils' Type 41 Mountain Guns, plus what was obtained after Huang Shaohong and Yan Laoxi had a big argument in the 2nd War Zone.
The number of artillery pieces was no less than twenty.
"Load one round!"
Then 24 shells soared into the sky, tracing arcs, trailing flames, and smashed down toward Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post.
"Quickly... quickly... take cover!"
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
You cannot put all your eggs in one basket.
Then remove the fuse and insert the shell into the breech.
Yu Hua called over a Communications Soldier, "Contact the Group Army's direct Mountain Artillery Regiment immediately."
"Target... 109th Division command post."
They focused on adopting Germany's Bofors Mountain Gun.
"Boom!"
The 22nd Group Army's Mountain Artillery Regiment was set up on the reverse slopes of several hills.
24 artillery pieces were divided into 6 artillery positions.
Yu Dazhu had heard about this type of artillery from German instructors back at the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School.
In an instant!
Yamaoka Shigeatsu's command post was turned into a sea of fire.
It at least brought artillery warfare in Zhongtu from Direct Aiming into Indirect Aiming.
He went directly to Principal Chiang to ensure that Gaul's artillery would not be allowed to enter the Far East Continent.
For the sake of cooperation between the two sides, Principal Chiang had no choice but to abandon the Schneider 75mm Mountain Gun.
"Prepare for bombardment now!"
Furthermore, after purchasing the Bofors Mountain Gun, the military advisors sent by Germany also helped the Republic of China train a large group of German-style artillerymen.
The devil soldiers in Shimen Village.
When the Nanjing Command was choosing standard artillery.
"This time our Sichuan Army has a Mountain Artillery Regiment, we have to thank the support from your hometown."
Yu Dazhu shouted loudly, and the artillerymen beside the four Mountain Guns immediately moved into action.
You would be scared out of your wits!
105mm Howitzers are currently being manufactured in Yu Hua's hometown, and they should appear very soon.
By then, the Sichuan Army's firepower will also be significantly improved.
