Chapter 75 Discussion within the artillery regiment
Zuo Fei was the deputy commander of the artillery regiment when he was in the Guangdong Army. He was asked to be the commander of the artillery regiment of the Wei Army, which was a completely professional counterpart.
But among the Wei Jiajun present, there were many who were dissatisfied with Zuo Fei.
After all, in their opinion, Zuo Fei had only joined the Wei Army for a short period of time, and he had not made any significant contributions during this period.
The former artillery battalion commander of the Wei Jiajun was the first to stand up and said respectfully to Wei Junlin: "Commander, this is so unfair. Why should he, a newcomer, be the commander of the artillery regiment? "
Officers from several artillery battalions stood up and spoke in agreement, with dissatisfied looks on their faces.
And all this was expected by Wei Junlin. He had long known that his subordinates would definitely dissatisfy Zuo Fei. The reason why he announced it in public was to give Zuo Fei a chance to prove it.
And the matter of two shells was not considered extravagance.
"Of course I have my own reasons for choosing people. If you are not convinced, just compare your artillery skills with Zuo Fei. Zuo Fei, what do you think?"
Wei Junlin looked at Zuo Fei below with interest.
"I have no problem." Zuo Fei nodded, his face calm and composed, and then expressed his attitude towards the artillery battalion commander not far away: "If you can beat me, I will let you do this as the artillery battalion commander." ."
"It's a word."
The artillery battalion commander of the Wei Army suddenly cheered up and said excitedly.
"A gentleman's words are hard to follow, but you have to make an agreement first. If I defeat you, you will have to serve me obediently from now on."
Zuo Fei nodded calmly and confidently, his brows glowing with confidence.
Upon hearing this, the artillery battalion commander nodded readily and agreed: "Okay."
He seemed to think that he, the artillery battalion commander who had been trained by Red Police soldiers, would be able to surpass Zuo Fei in terms of artillery fire skills.
Immediately, the two sides started fighting in the military camp.
Both sides used a Type 70 [-]mm infantry gun.
Wei Junlin assigned several artillerymen to each of them so that they could easily operate this artillery.
"I can [-]% hit any target within two kilometers. Someone, please move the target to two kilometers away."
The artillery battalion commander said swornly, and then gave instructions to the people under his hands.
Soon, a scarecrow target was moved to the front. After the artillery battalion commander saw the soldiers withdrawing to a safe area, he immediately commanded loudly: "Aim point, target scarecrow, direction 3218, instant fuse, high and low hundred and three. , the distance is 2 kilometers, turn left at three o'clock, prepare... release!"
"Oh!"
The shells roared out immediately.
Dust suddenly flew around the cannon, as if there was an earthquake.
Wei Junlin, who was standing on a high place, raised his military telescope and saw that the cannonball flew into the air and then quickly hit the scarecrow in front. The shock wave of the explosion instantly tore the scarecrow into pieces.
"Good fight."
Wei Junlin put down his military binoculars and clapped his hands in praise.
The maximum range of the Japanese Type 70 2.7mm infantry gun is only [-] kilometers. The commander of this artillery battalion can accurately hit targets within two kilometers and is already a leader among artillery.
"Thank you for the compliment, Commander." The artillery battalion commander grinned and took great pleasure in Wei Junlin's praise. Then he turned around and flew towards Zuo Fei, saying arrogantly: "If you can surpass my record, you will win."
This little tsundere's expression seems to be saying, you're going to lose.
"Okay, this is what you said, move the scarecrow target to 2.5 kilometers away."
Zuo Fei smiled slightly, then waved his hand and shouted to the artillerymen of the Wei Army in front of him.
As soon as these words came out, the artillery battalion commander and the artillerymen of the Wei Army were stunned. They didn't expect Zuo Fei to be so ruthless and report such a distant target as soon as he opened his mouth.
It is said to be 2.5 kilometers, but it is impossible to accurately measure the distance, so there is still some distance difference, but the maximum gap is less than ten meters.
At this time, the gunner's professional skills need to be tested.
When Wei Jun came to see Zuo Fei, he immediately raised the difficulty to such a high level. He couldn't help but feel a cold sweat for him, and he kindly persuaded him: "Zuo Fei, why don't you lower the target slightly, 2.1 kilometers is okay. "
"I won't change. Please rest assured, Commander. If my subordinates don't have this ability, then I'm not worthy of being the commander of the artillery regiment of the Wei Army."
Zuo Fei shook his head calmly, his tone full of absolute confidence.
"Okay, I believe you."
After Wei Junlin paused, he stopped persuading him.
But among the people present, except for Wei Junlin and the Cantonese military talents who came with Zuo Fei, no one else believed that Zuo Fei could hit such a distant target.
Even Wei Zhenguo, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Wei Jiajun, had the same view.
After all, the longest range of the Type 70 2.7mm infantry gun is only [-] kilometers.
The difficulty facing Zuo Fei was just like shooting a pilot in a fighter jet with a rifle. In the eyes of ordinary people, this was almost impossible.
At this time, Zuo Fei stepped forward and came to a Type [-] infantry cannon. Four artillerymen cooperated with him to control the cannon.
Since the commander-in-chief Wei Junlin was here, these artillerymen did not dare to trip Zuo Fei.
Zuo Fei first held his breath for a moment, then raised the military telescope in his hand. After confirming the value, he shouted loudly and forcefully.
"Sight point, target scarecrow, direction 3411, instant fuse, high and low 2.5, far distance [-] kilometers, four o'clock direction, turn two left, ready... release!"
Zuo Fei looked solemn and waved his hand to give orders.
"Oh!"
The shells immediately roared out from the muzzle of the Type [-] infantry gun.
The huge recoil caused the entire gun body to shake violently backward.
At this moment, the scene felt like the earth was shaking, and dust was thrown up all over the sky.
Wei Junlin raised his military telescope and looked at it. He saw the cannonballs flying into the air and flying quickly towards the scarecrow target.
When it was about to get close, the cannonball swooped down, as if it had eyes, and hit the scarecrow with impartiality and precision.
"Boom!"
The bombardment field ahead resounded with a sky-wide roar.
The scarecrow target was instantly shattered by the explosion shock wave, turning into straw and scattered on the ground.
"Good fight."
Wei Junlin clicked his tongue and praised, with a satisfied smile on his face.
I understood that I had found a treasure before. With Zuo Fei's cannon here, the Wei Army Artillery Regiment would be like a tiger with added wings, able to play a greater role.
The commander of the artillery battalion also used a military telescope to look at the situation ahead and confirmed that the artillery shell accurately hit the scarecrow target 2.5 kilometers away. A look of shock appeared on his face, as if he had not expected Zuo Fei. It really can be done.
The artillery battalion commander sighed, then came to Zuo Fei, straightened his back, and saluted Zuo Fei: "Reporting to the commander, Wei Jiajun artillery battalion commander Zhang Tiangui reports to you!"
Obviously, the current artillery battalion commander has completely convinced Zuo Fei.
Not only him, but other officers in the artillery battalion also expressed their admiration for Zuo Fei's strength.
Wei Zhenguo glanced at Zuo Fei in front of him, and then extended his thumb to Wei Junlin beside him and praised him: "Brother Junlin, you can do it. Not only did you get a large amount of arms during your trip, but you also found such powerful talents."
