Chapter 14 Part-time Artillery
After being blocked by the defenders, the Japanese reacted very quickly.
The machine gun team had already set up a heavy machine gun, and soon let out a deafening roar, pouring dense bullets towards the defenders' positions, and counter-suppressing the defenders.
Yang Jing now has no time to take care of the Japanese machine gunners, because the threat of Japanese grenadiers is far greater than that of machine guns.
Just now, a mortar shell fell from the sky and landed accurately on the defending machine gun positions.
With a loud "boom" sound, the machine gunners on the position were blown away, and they all had their guns.
In the scope, Yang Jingqing clearly saw that about 600 meters away, after the Japanese grenade was successfully attacked, he quickly picked up another shell and made a move to stuff it into the cannon barrel again.
"Damn it! With me here, how can you let your damn be on the verge of scattering?"
After a cold snorting, Yang Jing pulled the trigger directly.
"Bang!"
A 7.62mm caliber rifle bullet rotated at high speed and broke out.
The next moment, a blood-red hole appeared in the middle of the Japanese grenadier's helmet and then tilted to the ground.
Seeing this, a grenadier next to him immediately ran up to fill his seat. However, as soon as his hand touched the shells on the ground, a ball of blood mist exploded directly from his head.
"Baga! The enemy has sharpshooters!"
It can be said that one person was hit by a coincidence. It is not a coincidence that another person was hit in less than 10 seconds.
After the Japanese grenadiers reacted, they immediately became cautious, which reduced Yang Jing's sniping efficiency a lot.
However, as the rumbling of the tank became clearer, Yang Jing's face became heavier.
Perhaps compared with the tanks of powerful countries such as the United States, the Soviet Union and Germany, the Japanese Type 95 light tanks cannot even be considered real tanks.
However, for the army of the country that is seriously lacking defensive weapons for combat vehicles, this is still a deadly enough weapon.
At least the Mosinnagan sniper rifle in Yang Jing's hand was completely unable to penetrate the defensive armor of the Type 95 light tank.
"Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!"
The dense bullets hit the tank's defensive armor like it was tickling. Apart from splashing clusters of sparks and leaving a little bullet mark, it did not cause any damage to it at all.
In this way, the Japanese infantry hiding on the wings of the tank and the behind them also became arrogant. When they followed the tank forward, they kept firing and fighting back.
At the same time, a 92 heavy machine gun mounted on the tank top cover also roared.
A dense rain of bullets poured over, smashing the defending positions into smoke and dust.
Many soldiers were shot and fell into pools of blood one after another.
However, what is really deadly is the Japanese tank guns.
A Japanese tank soon discovered a defending machine gun that suppressed it with fire, and then immediately turned the turret. The black hole of the 37mm caliber main gun quickly locked the heavy machine gun.
Then, before the soldiers of the machine gun team could react, a shell flew over at a high speed of more than 700m/s.
With a loud bang, a dazzling red light suddenly burst into the machine gun position.
In the red light, the bodies of four machine gun soldiers were directly blown out by the shock wave produced by the explosion, and they were already dead before they landed.
The Type 24 heavy machine gun on the position also turned into a pool of scrap iron.
"Bang!"
"Bangbangbangbangbangbang!"
At the same time, the other Japanese tanks also fired.
After the explosion ended, the gunshots from the defending positions immediately weakened by half.
Seeing this scene, Yang Jing's face changed drastically.
The firepower of the defenders could not destroy the Japanese tanks at all, but the Japanese tanks were fatal to the defenders.
He didn't care about continuing to snipe the important target of the Japanese, so he picked up the Mosinnagan sniper rifle in front of him, and hugged his waist and ran quickly towards Yao Ziqing's position along the trenches.
"Brother, the Japanese Iron Tortoise poses a great threat to our army. We have to find a way to destroy it quickly, otherwise these Iron Tortoise can kill all the brothers."
Yao Ziqing's face was also gloomy and water was about to drip out. He said with a hoarse voice: "The only one that our army can kill the Japanese tanks is the only two 75mm caliber field cannons in the back mountain.
It’s just that the Japanese tanks are always moving, and it’s too difficult to hit them.”
"Boom! Boom!"
As soon as Yao Ziqing finished speaking, two red lights rose from the Japanese stormtroopers.
Unfortunately, except for a few Japanese who were swept away from the shock wave, the Japanese tank group still remained like a moving fortress.
Just to cooperate with the infantry's charge, the speed slowed down a little.
"Random cannon?"
Yang Jing suddenly remembered that he had masturbated before, and it seemed that an airplane cup was revealed. Bah, a book about artillery mastery was revealed.
So a gleam in his eyes flashed: "Brother, let me try it."
"Can you do it?"
"How can a man say no?"
"Okay, I will hand over the artillery position to your command now."
Yao Ziqing could only be a living person, and put his hope on Yang Jing, a guy who always brings him miracles.
As for why Yang Jing fired a cannon, he didn't ask too much. It was not that he didn't think about it, but that time was too urgent. Every time he delayed one second, the defenders would suffer more casualties.
"However, the artillery position has been blocked and the frontier cannot be directly observed, so I need a qualified observer.
By the way, brother, your artillery should be equipped with artillery mirrors, right?”
Just now, Yang Jing had already mastered the artillery through his thoughts, so he knew about professional terms and terms such as observer and artillery mirror.
When Yao Ziqing heard that Yang Jing knew this, he felt even more at ease.
The deputy battalion commander next to him, Hou Zhengyu snatched a voice: "Captain Yang, let me be an observer for you."
Seeing Yang Jing looking at Hou Zhengyu with some doubts, Yao Ziqing hurriedly added: "Brother Yang, you don't know anything. Deputy Battalion Commander Hou used to be a major artillery in the military academy. He was not only the most powerful main gunner in the entire battalion, but also the best observer in the entire battalion.
It is just because of his position that he rarely visits artillery positions in person.
Originally, our battalion did not have the qualifications to have artillery observation equipment, and it was obtained by Deputy Battalion Commander Hou through relationships."
Yang Jing glanced at Hou Zhengyu in surprise and said, "It's not advisable. Since this is the case, I'll trouble Deputy Battalion Commander Hou."
After arriving at the back mountain, Hou Zhengyu told the order of battalion commander Yao Ziqing. Although a main gunner looked at Yang Jing with a little confused look, he still took the order and gave up his position.
Hou Zhengyu quickly walked towards the observation position with a wide viewing area on the top of the mountain.
