Chapter 2 Everything is possible
As the US-made 105mm artillery roared loudly, everyone present was dumbfounded, because Bai Yi saw the whole process from filling the recoil fluid to adjusting the gun's firing angle, from the final pre-firing inspection to completing the firing.
It seems complicated, but it only takes a minute or two. The skillful operation and simple movements are simply a hundred times better than Lao Ge, who has served as an artilleryman.
Lao Ge, who originally wanted to come forward and "theory, theory" saw Bai Yi's smooth artillery operation, his eyes almost popped out of his eyes, especially when he saw Bai Yi adding hydraulic fluid, even though it was already approaching early winter.
, Lao Ge's back was also soaked with cold sweat.
You must know that just a few minutes ago, he was standing in the battle position where the artillery was fired, which was less than half a meter away from the artillery hydraulic device. Without the recoil fluid as a buffer, once the artillery was fired, the huge recoil force
It is very likely that it will break through the gun mount and kill Lao Ge on the spot.
Seeing this, Lao Ge finally understood that the little soldier in front of him was his savior. Thinking of this, Lao Ge's previous resentment was completely eliminated, and he still felt deep admiration in his heart. It's just that Lao Ge is an honest man.
He couldn't say anything pleasant, so he rolled up his sleeves and came to Bai Yi in three steps and two steps at a time: "Comrade, let me help you!"
"This cannon is almost done. There is no need to repair it anymore. You should lead others to repair the other three cannons." Bai Yi did not raise his head, but took out a wrench from the maintenance box and started to press the hydraulic pressure in several places.
The valve was screwed up, and then he turned his head and pointed at a few soldiers standing aside who were stunned:
"Others should also act quickly, collect the parts on the ground, and look for other tools..."
Bai Yi's confident look, calm demeanor, and careful planning make him look like a new recruit who is inexperienced in the world. He is simply more company commander than their company commander, so that all the surrounding soldiers, including Lao Ge, were confused.
I don't know whether to listen to their company commander or to this young soldier who is more powerful than their company commander.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and do what the little comrade asks you to do?"
Just when all the soldiers were stunned, the company commander issued the order without hesitation, and his title changed from recruit Danzi to little comrade. There was no way, how did Bai Yi save Lao Ge just now?
Next, the company commander completely saw the whole process of how to repair the artillery.
That artillery repair method that can be said to turn decay into magic makes the company commander extremely happy. You must know that what he wants is to make the several artillery in front of him capable of attacking the enemy. As long as this goal can be achieved, even a child
He would not hesitate to give up the command even if he came to take command. Therefore, seeing Bai Yi like this, the company commander didn't think much at all and directly ordered his soldiers to cooperate fully.
With the cooperation of the company commander, the soldiers took action again. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. The fired pin components that were quickly removed were found by the soldiers. Then they were quickly installed according to Bai Yi's instructions. Within a moment, they were destroyed.
The breechblocks of the three artillery pieces were repaired. Bai Yi checked them one by one, and when he saw that there were no problems, he nodded slightly:
"It's okay, it's barely usable..." As he spoke, Bai Yi glanced at the sweaty warriors beside him, with a hint of encouragement in his tone:
"Guys, just hold on, wait for three or four rounds of rapid fire, and then we'll have enough rest!"
"We are just waiting for your words!"
"Yes, I have long been displeased with the attacking enemy troops."
"Beat him, son of a bitch..."
Before Bai Yi finished speaking, the surrounding soldiers became excited. You must know that their brother troops are still struggling to support the last line of defense in Tashan. If they can use the four American-made 105mm howitzers in front of them to rapidly fire at the enemy's attacking echelon,
Not to mention reversing the entire situation, but at least it will allow the brother troops to hold on to the existing defense line.
Because of this, not only the ordinary soldiers were so excited that they could not wait to drop tons of artillery shells on the enemy's head at the next moment. Even the company commander, who had always been steady, was so excited that his face flushed. Unknown to others, he had experienced hundreds of battles.
The company commander knows it best. Four American-made 10
The 5mm howitzer is equivalent to the establishment of a heavy artillery company of the Dongye Artillery Column. If used properly, it can directly disrupt the enemy's attack. So the company commander suppressed the noisy voices of the soldiers and turned to look at him eagerly.
Bai Yi said with great enthusiasm:
"Little comrade, just say it, we will all listen to you!"
"Company commander, don't blame Lao Ge for my bad mouth!"
The company commander had just finished speaking, and before Bai Yi could reply, Lao Ge, who was squatting aside and smoking a cigarette silently, suddenly spoke. Then he put out the cigarette butt in his hand, casually put the gun on the ground behind his back, and pointed it.
Pointing to the three cannons that had just been repaired, he said with a wry smile:
"Old Ge, I know a little bit about what's wrong with the breechblocks of those three cannons. The reason why I didn't rush to fix those three cannons is not the breechblocks' problem at all."
"What is that?" The company commander was a little anxious.
Lao Ge patted the position where the sight was originally installed on the artillery gun next to him, and uttered three words with difficulty: "Scope!"
After listening to Lao Ge's words, the company commander's face suddenly darkened, but then he looked at the intact sight on the first gun repaired by Bai Yi not far away, and his originally gloomy face suddenly turned cloudy.
Qing pointed at the cannon and shouted:
"Isn't that gun's sight good? You can remove it later and calibrate the target for each gun..."
"But the sight that seemed to be intact was also broken."
"What? That good sight is broken too?" The company commander thought he heard wrongly, and his tone suddenly rose, but Lao Ge nodded helplessly:
"The enemy's destruction method is very clever. Several parts inside have been dismantled long ago. Once the cannon is fired, the huge vibration will completely shatter the precision lens inside, so..."
Lao Ge did not finish what he said, but what he wanted to express was self-evident. That is, the sights of the four artillery guns were all destroyed. This fact was like a basin of cold water poured on the head of every soldier.
, extinguishing the newly ignited excitement in an instant, so that each of the soldiers was like a drowned rat, completely wilting.
As for the company commander, after checking the seemingly intact sight, he was so angry that he cursed his mother. There was no way, direct firepower like the howitzer was very dependent on the sight. If there was no sight calibration,
When shooting at Zhu Yuan, artillery is not accurate at all. What's more, our army and the enemy are in close combat. If there is no sight for calibration, it is very likely to cause accidental damage to our army. At that time, it will not support our army's defense, but help the enemy's counterattack.
…
Seeing this, the unwilling company commander could only hit the gun mount with his fist as big as a hammer. Even after sighing helplessly and painfully, Lao Ge looked sad and took out half a gun from his jacket pocket again.
A bag of seized cigarettes, but before lighting them, Bai Yi had a complicated expression and forgot to glance at them.
Lao Ge was grateful to Bai Yi for saving his life. At such a young age, Lao Ge also admired him for his skill in repairing and using cannons. Perhaps it was because of his gratitude and admiration that he
Somewhat blind, I thought that the young man in front of me really had the ability to turn decay into something magical.
Therefore, during the process of repairing the cannon, Lao Ge never mentioned the sight, but to his disappointment, the miracle did not happen after all. The young man who impressed everyone did not even mention the sight.
Preparing to fire, Lao Ge, who was lucky enough to survive, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed...
"Alas, although I have a lot of abilities, it's a pity that I'm still too young..."
Lao Ge lamented in his heart and silently lit the pipe pot beside his mouth. However, as the smoke gradually rose, a young figure flashed past his eyes, and then he saw that figure standing next to an artillery fire.
Sometimes I adjust the horizontal angle in front of me, sometimes I shake the helicopter, sometimes I use a horizontal wooden stick to find the elevation angle in the air, sometimes I lie down on the gun position and look at the compass and matchbox and write quickly...
Seeing this scene, Lao Ge couldn't help being startled. He thought it was because he was dazzled and quickly rubbed his eyes. Only then did he realize that it was Bai Yi, whom he had despised, who was busy working in front of the artillery. It looked like he was clearly in progress.
Taking aim, seeing this, Lao Ge's expression suddenly changed drastically. He no longer cared about the cigarette pot he had just lit, and hurried to Bai Yi to stop him:
"Don't be rash, little comrade. If you fire without a scope, the error will be very large. If you don't get it right, our troops will be accidentally injured!"
At this time, Bai Yi was holding a detailed artillery map to compare and shoot at Zhu Yuan. Hearing Lao Ge's anxious voice, which was about to cry, Bai Yi couldn't help but pull out a graceful arc at the corner of his mouth. Without further explanation, he directly exposed
Come up with a list of extremely professional artillery terms:
"Target infantry, high and low 49, ammunition type grenade, four rounds of loading, left and right 230, front 124, high and low 30, ruler 020."
Before Bai Yi finished speaking, Lao Ge's anxious look suddenly froze on his face, and his whole person seemed to be cast by some kind of spell. He stood there for a few seconds, but at this moment, Lao Ge felt like he was being stepped on.
The cat with its tail jumped up and snatched the artillery map from Bai Yi's hand. Its two little eyes suddenly stared as wide as ping pong balls. When it looked at Bai Yi again, it was like looking at a monster, and the corners of its twitching mouth kept repeating.
:
"This...this...this...how is this possible?"
"Everything is possible in this world." Bai Yi smiled meaningfully, took the artillery map from the petrified Lao Ge, patted Lao Ge's shoulder again, then ignored Lao Ge and scanned the surrounding soldiers.
, said in a deep voice:
"Get ready to fire!"
