Chen Kai is currently teaching all the soldiers in the artillery battalion, including cultural classes, mathematics classes, and most importantly mathematics classes.

The training in the artillery battalion is very hard. How hard is it?

It's so hard that cultural classes are relaxing.

Because artillery training is not just about setting up gun mounts, it’s just about shooting out cannons.

You need to assemble and disassemble the cannon as quickly as possible, especially the mountain cannon.

Needless to say about the mortar, this one is fairly light and simple.

But mountain cannons are much more complicated.

In history, not long after, the United States and the Japanese army came to war. The Americans were not very good at fighting at the beginning, and their results were very unsatisfactory.

The Japanese army even went directly south to occupy Southeast Asia. At that time, an army called the Chinese Army in India appeared.

There are American officers who help train for combat, especially this 75mm mountain gun.

At that time, the record for the fastest disassembly and assembly of a mountain cannon by an American officer was 3 minutes and 20 seconds, while the fastest record for the fastest disassembly and assembly of a mountain gun by an officer trained in my country was 1 minute.

As a result, all Chinese officers who were trained at that time were required to be qualified within 1 minute and 20 seconds when practicing the assembly and disassembly of the Qiwu Mountain Cannon.

When both sides have artillery, and both sides have computers responsible for calculating ballistics and finding enemy artillery positions, the speed at which the artillery can be quickly assembled and disassembled determines the survival time of this artillery unit.

Artillery war in Europe.

There is a 10-minute artillery battle rule, which means that for an artillery group, the time from launching artillery bombardment to evacuation must be compressed within 10 minutes at least.

It took more than 10 minutes, which was enough for the opponent's computer to calculate the trajectory and the location of the artillery, and for the opponent's artillery to counterattack.

This is the experience of large-scale artillery battles in Europe.

This experience is also applicable to Asia. As long as the opponent still has a cannon and the range is good enough to reach you, this rule and experience will apply.

Especially when the Eighth Route Army is facing the Japanese army, and the equipment is extremely precious, it must abide by this rule. Otherwise, do you think that the Japanese army's aircraft, artillery and tanks are all fake?

Therefore, in artillery training, the shorter the time for artillery assembly and disassembly, the better, and the faster the better.

The weight of each component of this kind of artillery is very heavy. Assembly training and disassembly training are very physically demanding, but they have to be practiced.

That’s why I say that the cultural classes in the artillery camp are actually relaxing.

But now Chen Kai is no longer the scholar he used to be. He is now covered in strips of meat. You must know that the entire regiment's food reserves now, in addition to those seized, in terms of meat, the hunting team has also established a

A lot of credit.

For the hunting team, Chen Shanhe selected those with the best gun skills among all the soldiers, especially those who achieved outstanding results when using rifles to attack the Japanese army after the Japanese army was wary of mine tactics for more than ten days.

More than 50 of these people were selected by Chen Shanhe, and each of them was given the best rifle with 200 rounds of ammunition and went hunting in the mountains.

Chen Shanhe's requirement for them is that hunting is to practice shooting. If you can shoot through the eyes, don't shoot from other places. Even if you can't hit the eyes, you can hit the prey with one shot, and the heart can be hit.

However, the shooting distance must be 100 meters away from the prey. If it is 200 meters away, the rifle can still be shot through the eyes of the prey.

The leader of the group, Chen Shanhe, will give awards, and he will award them in front of the entire group.

Behind each hunter is a random assistant. This assistant records the shooting distance, assists in finding the prey, and finally helps each other carry the prey.

The members of the hunting team carry 200 rounds of ammunition every day. If there are not enough, the requirement is that there must be prey or large prey.

It doesn't matter how far they go.

No matter where you go.

No matter what he goes to fight, he doesn't care.

As long as they don't hunt livestock in people's homes, let them be.

They just kill all the tigers, black bears, or leopards in the mountains and forests, and that's it, they will all be turned into meat in the end.

In fact, the hunters in the hunting team like to hunt wild boars the most.

Because wild boars are social animals, one dozen can kill a whole nest, which will give them an advantage in the final performance evaluation.

That’s right!

Chen Shanhe took out so much precious ammunition to hunt for these hunting teams, but in fact it was not for hunting but for gun practice.

No one can practice marksmanship very well without practicing with live ammunition. As the saying goes, the accuracy of shooting is all fed by ammunition.

You usually practice shooting with a gun, and your distance is very good, and your hand is very steady, but if you have never fired a bullet in your life, it will be useless no matter how steady your hand is.

But it is too luxurious to really let soldiers fire live ammunition on the training ground, especially for troops like Chen Shanhe's Second Independent Regiment that do not have follow-up ammunition replenishment.

but.

If you can practice marksmanship while hunting and supplement the team with meat and protein, then losing some bullets is appropriate or normal.

Therefore, these days, in the past two months, Chen Shanhe's Second Independent Regiment, in addition to the grain and canned food seized from the Japanese army, also has large beasts brought back by the hunting team, which directly feeds the entire regiment with a little meat.

Already.

It is completely impossible for other units of the Eighth Route Army to receive such treatment, because no one is willing to use precious bullets to hunt.

Only the Second Independent Regiment persisted in this hunting habit despite Zhao Gang's reluctance.

However, Zhao Gang was not too determined to stop the hunting team from hunting. He was just a little worried about the waste of bullets. However, as he paid more attention to the accuracy of marksmanship in the Anti-Japanese War, he actually understood Chen Shanhe's purpose of doing this.

Zhao Gang sent a telegram to the brigade commander, reporting the current situation in some detail, and also made a detailed report on all the people arrested and what was found in the interrogation.

The length of the telegram even made the telegraph operator worry about whether the battery of the brigade commander's telegraph machine had enough power?

The brigade commander paid special attention to these spies. Especially after hearing the accounts of these spies, he thought about how much he could get from them if he got these nine spies. This is what the Eighth Route Army is doing now.

Something urgently needed.

The cavalry company was sent out to deliver horses, equipment, and people.

Scout battalion commander Wang Jiudao quickly found Chen Shanhe and told the artillery battalion commander Chen Kai and Ye Liumu, who had resigned as the commander of the first battalion and is now the captain of the hunting team, a big news.

"The Japanese 4th Brigade is now disbanded in Xiangyuan County. After adding a regiment, it became the 58th Division. The commander of the 58th Division has not yet arrived at our base area.

But according to their direction of movement, their target is directly at the base of our Second Independent Regiment.

Leader, this is after eating turtle once last time, now I want to try it again!

The Japanese army has only one division, so we may be in trouble!"

Taiyuan.

Yoshio Shinozuka's combat command room.

A Japanese military officer with the rank of colonel stood in front of Yoshio Obsuka.

"Yamamoto-kun, as the first batch of officers sent by the empire to study special operations in Germany, you are also the best of this batch of officers. I want you to evaluate Chen Shanhe."

It turned out that this Japanese commander was Kazuki Yamamoto.

Yamamoto Kazuki was very arrogant. He always believed that the targets his special operations team should choose were the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and President Chiang Kai-shek in Chongqing.

Not such a little-known Chen Shanhe.

"I'm sorry, General!

If the special operations forces need to perform strategic actions, the targets selected are also strategic targets that can affect the direction of the war situation.

And this Chen Shanhe, according to the intelligence collected by Ttech, his predecessor was just a bandit leader.

Although I don’t know what means he used to grow from a bandit team of dozens of people to a group of almost a thousand people now.

But a mere regiment leader is not the target of a special operations team.

Moreover, special operations must be carried out with accurate intelligence.

In other words, the intelligence department is our eyes, and we are the sharpest knife in the entire Japanese Empire.

The intelligence community is responsible for seeing the targets we should eliminate, and we are the knife with which to eliminate them.

If Chen Shanhe is to be targeted, our current intelligence is still slightly insufficient.

But judgment can still be made.

If I had to judge this Eighth Route Army commander named Chen Shanhe, I can only say that he is a cowardless bandit.

According to the intelligence we have collected, this person has fought many times, mostly in ambushes, sneak attacks and sap attacks.

The method that can resist our attack is just a sneak attack with landmines. There are no eye-catching tactics, only the methods used by bandits and scoundrels.

Therefore, although he had successfully blocked the attack of the two infantry regiments of our 4th Mixed Brigade before.

But this may be just an undecided attack by the commander of the 4th Brigade.

If a mere regiment can stop a brigade of the Imperial Japanese Army, then Taiyuan will not be captured by our army.

If the soldiers of the Imperial Army of Japan were so mediocre, then Shanxi King Yan Xishan would not have 300,000 troops in his hands and still be beaten back by us.

We have planes, tanks, and artillery. How could we be afraid and eat turtles in front of a regiment?

So General, what you should consider now is to find the location of the Eighth Route Army headquarters and tell us so that we can attack and capture the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

This Chen Shanhe, just a newly appointed regiment leader, is not the target of our special forces.

Please forgive me!"
