Others show their swords, I show my missiles!

Huashui County No. [-] had just taken a breath and jumped out of the command center to see with his own eyes the "magic bird" he had longed for.

The divine bird flew at supersonic speeds, like thunder and lightning - after seeing the lightning, it took several seconds before the thunder was heard.

The divine bird flew over the target and did not fall. Instead, it laid hundreds of eggs like a peacock spreading its wings.

When these eggs approached the ground, they shattered all over the ground. At the same time, a loud "boom boom" sound was made.

Wherever the egg breaks, smoke billows and flames fly. The little devil’s body is gone!

This is a high-explosive submunition. A fixed-height proximity fuze is used, which is specially used to kill domestic livestock.

As the name suggests, the fixed-height proximity fuze is detonated at a predetermined height. At this time, there is no need to consider the angle between the ammunition and the target, only the detonation height needs to be considered.

The full name of this rocket launcher is the PHL-401 box-type long-range rocket launcher, or 401 Box Fire for short.

P is the abbreviation of "gun";

H is the abbreviation of "rocket";

L means wheel. Isn't the pinyin initials of "crawler type" also L? If it is a crawler type, the letter is Z, which means "self-propelled".

Regarding the damage effect of 370mm rockets, an article describes it like this:

Only one 370mm rocket can be loaded with up to 623 anti-armor and anti-personnel sub-munitions.

The armor-piercing capability of a single ammunition is 50 mm, and the effective killing radius of personnel is 7 meters.

This means that only one 1mm rocket is fired. In the target area, no infantry on the 370-square-meter battlefield can survive. No one can stand on the battlefield with such shrapnel flying. Such damage. The power has reached an astonishing level!

With such a range and lethality, the 370mm rocket launcher can be said to be more than just a tactical weapon, but a new type of strike weapon with campaign-level depth accuracy and wide coverage.

In addition to traditional rockets, the 401 box fire module launch box can also meet the conditions for use of explosive bombs, submunition bombs, terminally sensitive bombs, ground penetrating bombs and cloud explosive bombs.

Judging from the 370mm rocket, its high-explosive warhead is no less powerful than a tactical missile.

All ammunition used by Type 401 can also be flexibly configured with different seekers among inertial, laser, millimeter wave, infrared and satellite according to needs.

During the operation, there will be assistance from weather reconnaissance vehicles, drones, terrain mapping vehicles, high-altitude electronic balloons and other units.

The target data they obtain will be continuously and quickly connected to the vehicle-mounted aiming and fire control data link, ultimately reducing the shooting error to the extreme.

"Quick, anti-artillery, drill if there is a hole, jump into the well if there is no hole! The heavy artillery regiment will fight back and suppress the Haqi Road Divine Bird!"

"Report! The Heavy Artillery Regiment cannot determine the location of the Bird's Nest on Haqi Road!"

"Baga! Send a report to General Shao Dijun and ask for tactical guidance.

The heavy artillery regiment attacked the Haqi Road infantry nearby, focusing on the east side. Everyone rushed up and engaged in a melee with the Eighth Route Army, so that the enemy's artillery fire could not have any effect.

We must ensure that we can turn to the east at the last moment.

All troops must dare to see the red with their bayonets. If they don't retreat, they will be killed without mercy! "

"Roms!"

Now Huashui County No. [-] dare not stay at the headquarters. Its headquarters has no protection and is just a private house.

Those who stayed inside were either blown to death or buried alive;

Or be blown up first and then buried, one-stop service.

It now has to go to the front line to command.

The level of danger on the front line is not necessarily higher than at the headquarters.

The 33rd Division occupies an area of ​​400 square kilometers, with each square kilometer being one million square meters.

A single rocket covers an area of ​​[-] square meters.

Calculated based on the mathematics level of a second-grade elementary school student: four thousand rockets are needed to cover the entire 33rd Division position.

There are a total of 24 launch vehicles in the two far-fire camps, and each vehicle fires 8 rockets in a salvo. It takes about 21 salvos.

Each reloading takes ten minutes, not counting the launch time, which also takes three and a half hours.

What's more, whose rocket explosion damage area is a square? There is bound to be overlap!

If we only use rockets to cover the 33rd Division position, we will still need [-] rockets.

No matter how wealthy the Independent Brigade is, it is impossible for them to march with so many rockets.

Moreover, this is not a question of money, but a question of logistics and transportation.

In order to supply two battalions of your artillery regiment, more than a thousand trucks are required to transport ammunition for you. Is it ridiculous?

So even if rockets are nearly free, the density of shells will not cover every area like rain.

Moreover, there are many villages in this area, as well as Chinese people.

Rockets cannot be used to attack indiscriminately.

Rockets alone can’t solve the problem, so what should we do?

Next it’s time to use the 155 howitzer.

The three regiments have already captured Zhengzhuang Town, Hetou Village, Dajiang Village, Huangjiagou and other outlying villages and towns. Today’s goal is to capture Zhanggou Village, Nanlingkou, Nanzhuang, Yanhezhuang, Xiawangshan and Shangwangshan. .

As long as these places are captured and the 33rd Division's positions are compressed, the goal will be achieved.

It sounds like there's a lot of space, so it's equivalent to a combined battalion attacking a village.

First, long-range artillery fire was used to cut off the traffic in these villages, and the six battalions pushed through.

When we arrived at the village entrance, heavy infantry fighting vehicles drove into the village.

Knock down all the courtyard walls, and if attacked, fight back immediately.

There are not many people left in these villages, and some entire villages are empty.

Because not far to the north is the Taiyue Liberated Area, which is very safe, and many factories, mines, and construction teams are recruiting people, making it easy to make a living.

Many young people ran to Taiyue Liberated Area.

No one lives in some of the houses. It’s no exaggeration to say that nine out of ten rooms are empty!

Of course, there will be some elderly people who don’t want to leave their hometown. At this time, he was blocked in the village.

After learning that the Japanese were coming, the villagers originally wanted to escape from the village and hide in the mountains. As a result, as soon as he left the village, he saw Japanese soldiers and puppet troops everywhere, so he retreated back.

Some hid in the tunnels and persisted all night. They could hardly hold on any longer and were rescued at this moment.

With the help of these villagers, these villages were quickly occupied.

Some Japanese soldiers resisted stubbornly and used rifles, grenade launchers, recoilless rifles, cluster grenades, rapid-fire cannons, explosive packs and other weapons to attack our infantry fighting vehicles.

Most of the Japanese were discovered by our army in advance and beaten into a sieve.

Some infantry fighting vehicles will lose their ability to move after being hit by multiple bombs, and they will be parked in place and used as bunkers.

When our army's 155mm howitzer fired, Huashui County No. [-] finally found an opportunity to counterattack.

"There's a chance! We've run out of the magic birds on Haqi Road. Let the heavy artillery regiment fight back for me and knock out the artillery positions on Haqi Road!"

After a while, the messenger reported to the fourth officer of Huashui County:

"Your Excellency, the division commander, the artillery has calculated that the artillery position on Haqi Road is at least 30 kilometers away!"

"Baga! Out of range."

The quality and quantity of the Japanese artillery weapons have been strengthened, but the maximum range is only 26.2 kilometers.

The fourth division in Huashui County has this kind of artillery. But even with this long-range 150mm heavy artillery, it cannot hit our army's artillery positions.

Moreover, that thing weighs 24 tons. Once the cannon is fired and the position is exposed, it means that it can only survive for a few dozen seconds.

The Huashui County Four definitely don't want the "big killer" in their hands to be exposed like this.

Our army's artillery position is 30 kilometers away from the Japanese's forward position. Our army can hit the Japanese, but the Japanese cannot fight back with artillery.

Originally, aviation support could still be called for, but now the air force of the Japanese North China Front is almost exhausted.

Huashui County Si slumped on the ground helplessly, extremely confused.
