Chapter 28: Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School (Seeking Follows)
Late at night!
The autumn wind in Shanghai in October is bleak.
The Sichuan Army soldiers are huddled in the trenches, wearing thin clothes.
"Alright!"
"Time's up, everyone get up."
Zhang Kang moves quickly through the trenches, waking up the soldiers participating in the operation.
Until Zhang Kang arrives beside Yu Hua.
Most of the Japanese soldiers didn't pay any mind.
Sleep soundly, there's an attack tomorrow morning, you must keep your spirits up.
"Thump, thump!! ——"
"Target the Japanese artillery's observation balloon."
How could this not make Yu Hua excited.
The Army has Whampoa, the Air Force has Jianqiao Aviation School, and the artillery has Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School.
When Yu Dazhu was studying there, he fired every single type of gun they had.
"Quickly, get down!"
"This kid has studied at Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School."
His heart is racing with excitement, and as he looks at Yu Dazhu, his eyes are gleaming.
The range of a 60mm mortar is far inferior to the range of the Japanese Type 97 90mm mortar.
"I, Yu Dazhu, am at least an artilleryman who has received German-style training."
Fifty men quietly slip out of the trenches and sneak toward the Japanese positions.
But, placed on the ground now, it can also be seen very clearly.
What does the Sichuan Army lack most—that is, of course, talent.
Plus, there are several Type 41 Mountain Guns placed nearby by the Japanese.
Yu Dazhu's gaze turns toward the dozen or so artillerymen.
In the TV series, Zhang Kang takes Liao Junjie, wearing Japanese uniforms, to run into the Japanese positions.
Yu Hua grins and says: "Company Commander!"
Just then, in the sky, six shells trail long flames.
Since it's our own artillery firing at the enemy, what is there to be afraid of?
The Japanese soldiers all know this is the sound of shelling.
"Our terrain here is high; by utilizing the inertia of the shells in flight, it should work."
Yu Hua had thought it was the effect of the uniforms that allowed Zhang Kang and the other to easily enter the Japanese defense zone.
The range of these two guns is still a bit short; he must utilize the current altitude.
"Company Commander, we must protect Dazhu well."
The Second Gunner immediately moves the shells out of the ammunition box and hands them to the First Gunner.
Looking at it now, this is just the Japanese being careless.
But, the Japanese artillerymen are very concerned!
Tonight, they hadn't received any orders at all to shell the other side.
Fontainebleau Artillery School... is the world's number one artillery school.
And the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School is known as the Far East's number one artillery school.
It is crashing down toward their own artillery position.
The land area alone is 30 to 40 square kilometers.
Zhang Kang scratches his head, looking in shock at Yu Dazhu, who is adjusting the mortar.
The four 90mm mortars have finished adjusting their firing data.
"90mm mortar, charge number two!"
Even Yu Hua is stunned.
Because the Sichuan Army units only possess artillery at the army-level organization, this leads to...
In the last few days, their own artillery has also often toyed with the Republic of China Army on the opposite side.
A huge explosion sounds from the Japanese artillery position.
"Company Commander, Dazhu is not an ordinary artilleryman."
Yu Dazhu had played with every single one of them back then!
Zhang Kang leads the team toward the Japanese positions, and the journey is surprisingly easy.
The little Japanese defense line is very sloppy.
This is simply an all-around artilleryman.
"Platoon Leader!"
Tonight is a live-fire exercise for the mortar platoon.
Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School has all kinds of artillery.
The shell drops into the barrel, emitting a sound.
But, most of the Japanese soldiers still didn't pay any mind.
In the dark of night!
"Ah..." Zhang Kang is shocked: "This kid is that capable?"
"Isn't that stating the obvious!" Zhang Kang curled his lip and said, "I already know that."
These three schools were all places where the Republic of China High Command cultivated elites for the War of Resistance at the time.
Achieve the firing objective!
"Ready... fire!"
The remaining two 60mm Mortars.
It was a pity, the Japanese artillerymen shouted too late.
If the 60mm Mortars could not reach the range, Yu Hua was prepared to abandon the mortar bombardment.
"Baka!"
"The 60mm Mortars should be able to reach it."
"Damn it... I've struck gold."
Under his training, these few artillerymen had initially mastered the techniques of the mortar.
Zhang Kang's gaze turned toward Yu Dazhu, and it also radiated a sharp light.
They had never even considered that the weak Republic of China Army would actually enter their camp to launch a raid.
Use artillery to intimidate them!
Many Japanese artillerymen's faces changed drastically, "Artillery attack!"
Where did this sound of artillery come from?!
The more the Japanese artillerymen thought about it, the more they felt something was wrong.
The Japanese devils were hiding in their positions.
Yu Dazhu was a veteran artilleryman.
As a sniper, how could Yu Hua be absent?
Yu Dazhu placed his thumb in front of his right eye, visually estimating the Japanese artillery observation balloon.
After receiving the shell, the First Gunner placed it into the barrel.
Although the Japanese devils' artillery observation balloon was not raised at night.
"Boom— rumble... boom— boom..."
Even if it exploded, it would explode on the enemy, not on oneself.
There was not a single obstacle.
Yu Hua crouched and came to Yu Dazhu's side.
"The Republic of China Army is conducting a Night Raid!"
They looked up toward the horizon.
If he said it was no problem, then it was no problem, "Platoon Leader, don't you worry."
"If I weren't certain, I wouldn't have the nerve to say I studied at the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School."
Immediately, Yu Hua hurriedly explained the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School to Zhang Kang.
He whispered in Yu Hua's ear: "What's wrong?"
The whistling sound coming from the sky, how familiar this sound was.
Everyone was assembled, and on every soldier's back, there was a Broadsword.
Yu Hua, who was to the side, widened his eyes upon hearing this.
Especially the artillerymen.
Yu Dazhu wanted to handle it personally.
The 1st Regiment had no artillery, and these six mortars were to be commanded by Yu Dazhu.
Fifty men arrived at a patch of grass.
"The look in your eyes is just like seeing a fair-skinned, naked beauty."
"Our Sichuan Army lacks artillerymen; isn't this a talent?"
From Grenade Launchers, Mortars, to Mountain Guns, Field Guns, and 32-caliber 150mm Howitzers.
"How is it?"
It was impossible for people not to discover it!
"Dazhu!"
"Five rounds of rapid fire!"
Yu Dazhu was very happy!
He held up his thumb, closed his left eye, and opened his right eye.
Six shells landed accurately on the artillery position.
Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School, Yu Dazhu studied inside it.
Zhang Kang saw Yu Hua's expression, which seemed as if he wanted to swallow Yu Dazhu whole, not even leaving the bones.
Everyone dispersed and hid, while the six mortars were lined up in a row.
Yu Dazhu selected 18 clever Sichuan Army soldiers!
When the Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School was founded, it was benchmarked against the Gaul Fontainebleau Artillery School.
Tangshan Artillery School Artillery School Artillery School, this school was the Whampoa Military Academy in the hearts of artillerymen.
Moreover, it was several artillery pieces conducting the bombardment.
"This Yu Dazhu... is a talent."
"Can the 60mm Mortar reach the target?"
The fifty men participating in the operation.
After listening to Yu Hua's explanation.
After everything was prepared.
"As long as he is here, it will be easy for our Sichuan Army to train artillerymen."
Following closely, the shells from the six mortars rushed toward the sky.
They don't even have many Light and Heavy Machine Guns, how could they possibly have artillery!?
This must be our own artillery shelling the enemy forces.
"Boom, boom, boom!! ——"
"60 mm Mortar, charge four!"
Because the opposing troops had poor weapons.
Following a wave of Yu Dazhu's large hand.
Under Yu Dazhu's instruction.
Yu Hua also participated in this Night Raid.
Carrying long tails of flame, the shells left trajectories in the sky and smashed down onto the devils' artillery position.
Ripples of air waves expanded, kicking up quite a bit of dirt and sand, blowing toward the surroundings.
The first round of shelling deviated from the target by only two or three meters.
It is evident that Yu Dazhu's artillery skills are extremely superb!
