"What is it? That's impossible!"
"Are you trying to fool me? How could it be possible to form combat strength in a week?”
Li Yunlong looked at Iron Bull in disbelief.
Ding Wei was the same. They looked at the soldiers of the artillery company and could see that their backs were already drenched. It seemed that their training was quite tough.
However, artillery was a very technical branch of the army. These soldiers were all young people. It was undoubtedly quite difficult to train them into cannoneers in a short period of time.
What could he do in a week? He couldn't do anything.
Now, Iron Bull had used a week to make the artillery company have combat effectiveness. This was somewhat unbelievable.
"Guild Leader, how would I dare to lie to you? The Artillery Company had truly formed its initial combat strength. However, the soldiers were still far from becoming qualified Artillery, and there were still many areas that needed to be improved.”
Iron Bull smiled bitterly.
Iron Bull knew that Li Yun Long would not believe him easily, but he had a way to prove it.
"Dabiao, can you train the recruits for a week to form combat strength?”
Li Yunlong turned to Zhang Dabiao and asked.
Zhang Dabiao, the first battalion commander, was Li Yunlong's good assistant. If it weren't for him, Li Yunlong wouldn't be so relaxed.
Compared to the other commanders of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong was much more relaxed. Usually, Zhang Dabiao was also the one who made Li Yunlong worry the most.
"Guild Leader, isn't that a joke? A week's time, no matter how hard they trained the new recruits, it would not change them much. On the battlefield, other than shooting empty shots to scare the Japanese, hoping that the new recruits would have the combat strength to kill the Japanese, a week's time was not enough.”
Zhang Dabiao said in a deep voice.
Zhang Dabiao also wanted to help Iron Bull, but he didn't dare to speak nonsense on this matter.
After leading the 1st Battalion for such a long time, Zhang Dabiao had trained a lot of new recruits. But even so, he didn't dare to guarantee that he could make the new recruits form combat strength in a week.
Now, Zhang Dabiao could only hope that Iron Bull had a good explanation. Otherwise, he would be punished.
"Buff, did you hear that? Even Zhang Dabiao, the 1st Battalion Commander, didn't dare to say that.”
Li Yun Long looked at Iron Bull with a serious expression. He would not develop the habit of his subordinates bragging.
On the battlefield, the artillery company did not have the corresponding combat strength, which would undoubtedly delay the opportunity.
Iron Bull didn't panic. He knew the best about the artillery company.
"Regiment Commander, First Battalion Commander, you've all misunderstood a concept. Artillery training is different from the training of new recruits. Why don't you watch the soldiers of the artillery company fire a cannon?”
Iron Bull said softly.
There was a hint of confidence in Iron Bull's eyes. He was full of confidence in the soldiers of the artillery company.
If not for that, Iron Bull would not have said that. He would not boast.
"Hmph, it seems like you won't cry until you see the coffin. Alright, I want to see what kind of combat power your artillery company has.”
"Old Ding, what do you think?"
Li Yunlong glanced at Iron Bull and asked.
? Li Yun Long was about to leave the new regiment. He still needed to seek the opinions of the new regiment commander, Ding Wei, on some matters. He couldn't let Ding Wei decide everything.
Ding Wei might not care about this, but Li Yunlong needed to pay attention to this.
After being the regiment commander for so long, Li Yunlong knew this. He did not want to affect the relationship between his old comrades because of this.
"Old Li, you're still worried that I won't agree? I also want to see the current combat power of the artillery company. If it's still okay, I'll take the artillery company to find trouble with the Japanese and get some good things.”Ding Wei scolded jokingly.
Of course, Ding Wei didn't know what Li Yunlong was thinking. He was worried that Ding Wei might have his own thoughts, but Ding Wei wasn't such a person.
Zhang Dabiao looked at all of this and felt a little relieved. This new Regiment Commander Ding had a good temper.
"Get the soldiers ready. Take out a box of cannonballs and let the soldiers practice.”Li Yunlong said in a deep voice.
Li Yunlong had seen the soldiers of the artillery company train before. He knew how hard it was for them to train and that there were many problems in their training.
The training of the artillery company was not bad, but the fact that they had not conducted live fire would undoubtedly affect the artillery company.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to let the soldiers of the artillery company practice, it could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
"Thank you, Regiment Commander. I will inform the soldiers to prepare immediately.”Iron Bull immediately replied.
After the soldiers of the artillery company were informed about the live-fire shooting, they were quite excited. Every day, they had repeated and heavy training. They had always used fake shells.
Now, they finally had a chance to shoot with live ammunition. However, the soldiers also knew that it was impossible for all the soldiers to shoot with live ammunition.
15 warriors were selected. These 15 warriors performed quite well on normal days. If they were not on the battlefield, then five of them would be enough to control the infantry cannons.
There were fifteen people in each artillery squad, and most of them were rotated on the battlefield to ensure that the artillery fire had enough suppressive power.
The soldiers came to the Type 92 Infantry Cannon and checked it carefully to prevent any accidents from happening during the firing.
The soldiers were very excited. Being able to have such a chance to shoot with live ammunition meant a lot to them, not to mention that their regiment commander was here to watch.
Very soon, some soldiers brought the cannonballs over. After setting a target for the soldiers to fire at, some soldiers went to check if there was anyone in that area.
After the inspection, Iron Bull told the soldiers the angle they needed to adjust the cannons. It was also because these three Type 92 cannons had a scope that the soldiers could control them so easily.
After adjusting the angle according to Iron Bull's instructions, the soldiers sent the shells into the back of the infantry cannons according to their training. The shells flew out and hit the area around the target.
The Type 92 Infantry Cannon was not weak, and the sound of the cannon alarmed all the soldiers of the new regiment.
If the soldiers had not been informed that the artillery company was going to fire live ammunition, they might have thought that the Japanese were coming.
Although it sounded complicated, it only took the soldiers of the artillery company about three minutes to complete this round. They still had some combat strength.
During the bombardment, the soldiers of the artillery company performed well and did not make any mistakes.
Perhaps the only flaw was that the soldiers could not accurately measure the distance between themselves and the target, and they could not accurately find the angle to use when firing.
These were all things that Iron Bull needed to help the warriors improve and learn in the following period of time. It would probably take a lot of time.
Measuring the distance and angle of the cannon required a lot of knowledge. Iron Bull could only hope that the soldiers could master this knowledge as soon as possible.
By then, without Iron Bull, the Artillery Company's combat power would not be weak.
"Niu Zi! Kid, you really have a way. Not bad, not bad!”
Li Yunlong stepped forward and praised loudly, his eyes narrowed into a line.
Thank you for the evaluation votes, everyone!
