Chapter 046 Arrangement

The advice given by Hu Yizhou was based on his memory and what he experienced the day before yesterday! Hu Yizhou saw the Japanese using brimstone bombs with his own eyes!

Historically, the Japanese warships used sulfur bombs and heavy artillery shells directly at Baoshan City, and there were planes laying eggs in the sky. The entire Baoshan City was basically destroyed.

Hu Yizhou didn't believe that the little devil would stop using sulfur bombs after flapping his little butterfly wings so many times! That was impossible!

Moreover, since I have done so much to the 68th Wing since I arrived, I guess the Japanese will come back with even greater revenge!

Even though most of the Japanese warships have sailed to the Yangtze River Estuary and Huangpu River Estuary in the past two days to bombard Luodian and Wusong Town, even the naval guns on the river are enough to bear on Baoshan City!

Fortunately, okay! Hu Yizhou was lucky that the Japs only had incendiary bombs like sulfur bombs! If there were white phosphorus bombs like Eagle Sauce, Hu Yizhou thought it would be more cost-effective to escape as soon as possible! If there were cloud burst bombs, thermobaric bombs or even cluster bombs

...I'm glad it's World War II now...

With the approval note given by the third battalion commander, Hu Yizhou left the battalion headquarters and came to the warehouse.

The deputy of the Ma regiment saw the new artillery company that had been formed. He was relieved when he saw that it was organized. He left Baoshan with his guards and returned to the regiment's defensive position. At the same time, he also took away the third battalion commander who asked for more troops.

Soldier's documents.

The third battalion commander knew very well how fierce the battle he was about to face would be. He just hoped that the brigade could squeeze out some of the few remaining troops for him, even if it was a battalion or even a company!

Hu Yizhou had no control over the affairs of the third battalion commander. After he found Li's military supplies with the approval slip, he received all the supplies he was supposed to receive! He even received a seven-day ration!

"Eight 82 mortars with 800 rounds, four horses with four rings, and more than 800 rounds of bullets. The third battalion commander was pretty good. He collected two rifles for each artillery squad. This is a total of 32 Hanyang-made, round-head bullets.

2,200 rounds! Well, there are eight grenades, Type 89 grenades plus my own remaining 142 rounds...and grenades and explosives..."

Returning to the station, Hu Yizhou began to count the weapons and equipment in his hand. Being a company commander is not easy. At the very least, you need to know how many weapons and ammunition you have in your hand to make overall arrangements in battle.

"Fang Hao, call the platoon leaders of each squad for a meeting!" Hu Yizhou shouted to the door.

"Yes!" Fang Hao, the newly hired guard squad leader, replied loudly.

Soon, the squad and platoon leaders were gathered together! There were a total of four artillery platoon leaders, four artillery squad leaders, and two infantry squad leaders. Although Hu Yizhou was quite critical of the arrangement of two guns per platoon, there was no time to correct it now! Anyway,

They all serve as artillery squad leaders, so that’s it!

The key is that, except for Hu Yizhou himself, these are the only eight people in the entire artillery company who can fire artillery! The artillery fire mentioned here refers to the kind who can calculate ballistic trajectories.

Hu Yizhou carefully looked at his men again. He really didn't know how many of them would be standing here after this battle.

"Our artillery company has been completed! Now we give you the first task: repair artillery positions and dig air-raid shelters! The Japanese's 68th Regiment was severely damaged in the previous battle, so they need to recruit new recruits and reorganize the team! This time

, it may be one day, or it may be two days! No one can say for sure!"

"Because the Japs' recruits are well-trained, the quality of their individual soldiers is higher than that of our recruits and even some veterans! Therefore, we cannot take it lightly. We must make our positions complete and strong before the Japs attack!"

"Let me tell you the characteristics of the Japanese attack, that is, the artillery bombards the infantry. After the infantry attacks, the artillery bombs. After the artillery bombards the infantry, the artillery attacks! And this artillery is not a simple mortar and mountain artillery, but a heavy artillery.

Naval guns, aerial bombs!”

"So, I order you to build air defense fortifications in platoon units in the residential areas in the west of the city, and to establish artillery positions behind the infantry positions outside the city's west! The air defense fortifications must be strong. Dig as deep as you can, and use as much wood as possible to support it.

Use more wood for support, and make the covering soil as thick as possible!”

"Tell the soldiers, whoever dug the air-raid shelter is in it! If anyone fails to work hard and makes his air-raid shelter unable to withstand the Japanese bombing, then if he dies, don't blame others!"

"Now, Fang Hao, take this blueprint and lead us to build air defense fortifications in the west of the city! If there is no wood, we will demolish the houses of ordinary people! Use all the beams and purlins! Use suitable wooden pillars as well!

We don’t have much time and we don’t have reinforced concrete, so we have to do this!”

"You go ahead, the eight gun commanders stay!"

"yes!"

Fang Hao and Du Wei took the drawings to the residential houses in the west of the city. Hu Yizhou looked at the eight gunners and said: "Now, you follow me to the outside of the city. I will establish a grid coordinate system for you. When the Japanese come, follow this coordinate system."

Shoot me!"

After Hu Yizhou finished speaking, he took eight gunners to the outside of the city and led them to establish a complete ballistic coordinate system.

To put it bluntly, this coordinate system is to divide the route that the Japanese will attack, measure the distance and height, and then separate it according to the grid. Each platoon and each gun are responsible for which areas are set! Then the No. 1 position, the second position

Position No. 3 and Position No. 3 are all memorized!

In such a war, whoever needs artillery support will let that gun bomb its own area. Of course, if the mortar is knocked out, the two adjacent guns will cross-bomb the corresponding area.

Even if you need to concentrate your bombing, you can still hit it more accurately.

Hu Yizhou really didn't know the level of these gunners, and he didn't bother to find out one by one, so he just used this stupid method!

Hu Yizhou has already figured out where the reference object is and how to adjust the coordinates. You can just adjust it yourself when the time comes! Not sure? You can go to hell!

By the time Hu Yizhou finished all these things, it was evening and Master Xu had already prepared dinner and was waiting for him!

Hu Yizhou has privileges and can eat better. This is the rule of the bald man, so he does not intend to break it.

After eating Xiaozao by himself, Hu Yizhou led his people to start working overnight to build his own air defense fortifications!

Hu Yizhou knew very well that it didn't matter even if there was no artillery pit on the artillery position, he could run away after the attack! But without air defense fortifications, everything was in vain!

Although the soldiers complained about starting work overnight, when they thought that this air defense fortification was related to their lives, no one dared to be lazy! Compared with being tired, life is still more important!

An artillery company has a total of four platoons, and if two infantry squads are included as one platoon, there are exactly six air defense shelters. With the help of the beams and purlins removed from the houses, and with the help of a well, the entire artillery company's air defense position was finally completed.

It was set up before noon the next day.
Chapter completed!
