Chapter 144: Strain

Tong Meishan immediately called Cui Sanlei, the number one gunner under his command, and asked:

"San Lei, are you sure that Sanpao will knock out that cement fortress?"

Cui Sanlei, who is not tall but very solid, gestured with his thumb, smiled silly, and said:

"Try it! It's not good!"

Cui Sanlei is the most talented gunner in the special forces team. No one is more familiar with the 107 rocket launcher than him. Cui Sanlei's father is a gunner of the Ming army, and later died in the battle between Liaodong and the Tartars. Cui Sanlei also read books, but the Tartars were poisoned by the army, and Cui Sanlei and his family fled south to Zhejiang. Later, the new army recruited soldiers, Cui Sanlei became one of the first batch of new troops. Later, in the battle to regain Taiwan, the Tainan battle was launched.

The cannon knocked down two Dutch's cannons and became famous in one fell swoop. Then he was selected into the special forces team. As a gunner, his understanding may be inherent. Whether it is curved or direct shooting, whether it is just aiming directly or coordinators need to be calculated, he has obvious advantages compared to others, and no one can match it. Therefore, the magic gunner of the special forces team is Cui Sanlei. Although he cannot make the case, if he cannot shoot accurately, others will have to catch them blindly.

Cui Sanlei and his partner Lu Dacai came to a tree. The tree was thick enough to separate a branch from half a person's height. Cui Sanlei used the branch as a cannon stand and wanted to kill the Japanese fortress. There was no certainty in using the curved shooting method. Cui Sanlei decided to use the direct shooting method, basically using the 107 rocket launcher as a rocket launcher. Only by aiming directly can the fortress be knocked out. If the curved shooting is used, it is hard to say whether the ten cannons can kill the fortress! Only by direct shooting can the rocket directly hit the fortress into the shooting window of the fortress. This is the most exciting way to fight.

Cui Sanlei was holding this crazy idea and imagined that he would directly shoot the rocket into the shooting port without bias, and then the rocket exploded in the fortress. No matter how many Japanese pirates there were, they hid in the fortress at most three or four meters in a radius. As long as a rocket was drilled into a rocket, the consequence of the explosion was that all the creatures inside would become extinct in an instant.

Cui Sanlei and Lu Dacai tied the cannon that fired the rocket launcher to a tree branch. The recoil of the 107 rocket was not a joke. Tied to the tree branch, the tree could help carry the recoil. Then Cui Sanlei wrapped a piece of sheepskin on the back half of the cannon and carried the back half on his shoulder. Lu Dacai took the tail of the rocket and pulled the fuse out, and then stuffed the rocket into the cannon from the muzzle in the front.

Inside, the two of them were already very skilled in cooperating. As soon as the shell was stuffed into the cannon barrel, Cui Sanlei immediately closed his left eye and began to aim with his right eye. Cui Sanlei then greeted softly: "Ignite". The sound was much smaller than Cui Sanlei's usual voice. In that case, it was fear that the vocal cords would exert force all the previous aiming efforts. As soon as Cui Sanlei made a sound, Lu Dacai lit the rocket's ignition fuse and lit it with a "chi".

With a "boom", the rocket shot out. At the same time, the tree was shaken by recoil, and Cui Sanlei was pushed back by a strong force, staggering and almost fell down. Fortunately, he held the cannon barrel tightly with both hands, and then stabilized his body.

The rocket went straight to the fortress, but the fortress was not built high, and it was actually a bunker with a very low height. As a result, the first shot flew over the top of the bunker and exploded on the hillside. The shot was empty. Lu Dacai stomped his feet hard, feeling regretful. Cui Sanlei changed into a sheepskin, and the cannon was a little hot. After changing into the sheepskin, he carried it on his shoulders again. The two of them had a good understanding, so naturally they couldn't hit it again.

The second shot hit the bunker, and the rocket shell hit the left side of the bunker, but the concrete in front of the bunker was very thick and there were wire wires as ribs. This shot just lifted up a layer of cement. After the explosion, the machine gun inside was still fired. Obviously, this shot didn't work even if it hit. The third shot hit the right side of the shooting port, but it still had no effect.

The cannon barrel was so hot that Cui Sanlei had to stop and let the cannon cool down a little. In fact, the recoil was still too strong, and the roots of the tree were loose, let alone the flesh and blood. Even if the tree branch removed part of the recoil, Cui Sanlei also held the cannon barrel tightly in order to ensure the accuracy of the fire. In this way, he was hit hard by the powerful recoil three times in a row. Now he was in a scorching pain on his shoulders, and his body was also churning with blood. Only after a short rest could he fire the cannon again.

After pausing for a while, the fourth cannon magically shot into the shooting hole of the bunker. The rocket exploded in the bunker, lifting half of the wall of the shooting port. The machine gun suddenly fell silent. The Ming army, suppressed by the machine gun, took advantage of the situation and rushed forward and occupied the first line of defense of the Japanese. Tong Meishan gave Cui Sanlei a thumbs up and said, "Good job!", but Cui Sanlei leaned against the tree, and a trace of blood oozed out of the corner of his mouth. Tong Meishan's heart sank, realizing that the method of direct shooting just now had too much recoil, and Cui Sanlei was injured. He could not do this anymore. The Japanese still had at least five lines of defense, and there were more than a dozen large and small bunkers. It seemed that the rocket launcher was not used. Fortunately, there was a rocket launcher.

However, Leng Xuhai's attacks and casualties in the northwest were too great. Fifty-four people went up, only one of the four special forces team members, and Leng Xuhai's fifty subordinates had only twenty-six left, and not yet climbed one-third of the hillside. This was not a solution. Tong Meishan shook his head and thought that a sneak attack battle had reached a state of anxiety. If he continued like this, he didn't know when he would rush up the mountain. The more he thought about it, he felt ominous. This time the primary goal was the Qing army naval battle at Lushun Port.

As long as the ship is burned out the Qing army's warships, the Ming army can then rush on the sea. At that time, you can land as you wish and take the initiative and hold your own hands. At that time, you can send an army to land at the northern end of the Liaodong Peninsula, and then calmly clean up the Qing army, including destroying the Japanese here. Now, you are entangled here. If the Qing army comes to aid and attack the port and burn the enemy ship, it will be a waste of money. Thinking of this, I made up my mind secretly. I quickly summoned Leng Xuhai and others to express my thoughts:

"If this continues, it will definitely not work! Although this mountain is not high, the Japanese have tight defense and buried a large number of mines, it is definitely difficult to attack quickly. I am afraid that if this continues, it will not be possible to catch it in two or three days. So, we cannot be entangled here. In this way, I will lead 150 people to march eastward to capture the port of Lushun. Even if I can't capture it, I will try my best to burn the Qing army's warships in the port. This is a big deal! Brother Leng, you will stay here to command the remaining brothers to capture the mountain. How about it?"

Leng Xuhai was very valued by Wu Sangui. He was usually a master who was above the top. The fifty brothers he brought were extremely brave and could not even get the fierce Tartars. At this moment, when he met a pirate like a slut, Chi Lege was so sad that he was very angry. Now that he saw that Tong Meishan didn't take the order to defend the Liao king seriously, he immediately objected:

"Kill the Japanese and then attack the port, this is the instructor of the King of Zhen Liao. Even if all the brothers under him are killed in battle, they will never give up capturing this mountain. Does Company Commander Tong want to disobey the military order?"

Tong Meishan sighed in his heart. Of course, there was no famous saying "I am not afraid of enemies like gods, but I am afraid of comrades like pigs." However, Tong Meishan really didn't know how to talk about this colleague at this time. The subordinates led by this brother might be able to take one to ten during the cold weapon war, but it must be said that they have not yet begun to fight hot weapons. Even if it is cold weapons, eighty people can defend the mountain, and they cannot easily attack the mountain. Now the Japanese weapons do not even have to be the same as their own. There is no machine gun and mortar on their own side. Leng Xuhai's fierce attack and rushing hard will not work.

Tong Meishan had no choice but to explain:

"Brother Leng, let's put it this way, the attack of this mountain has now become a strong attack. The Japanese set up several lines of defense, machine guns, artillery and grenades, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Our army's troops cannot be deployed. They can only attack one by one. At this time, they are eager to attack, which will only increase casualties. Brother Leng just needs to attack step by step here. I will take my brothers to attack the port. If it goes well, I can rush back in two hours. As long as the Qing army's warships are burned, we can attack the Japanese on the mountain with peace of mind. If Brother Leng attacks this mountain in one fell swoop, then of course he will make great contributions. Brother Leng, what do you think?"

Gao Yi Peru looked at Tong Meishan and Leng Xuhai. Just now Cui Sanlei passed the rocket directly through the shooting hole and hit the bunker. Gao Yi Peru saw it. You must know that it was at least two miles away, which was simply amazing, so he interrupted:

"Company Commander Tong, Brother Cui from the special forces team was extremely accurate. There were only a dozen or twenty Japanese fortresses. As long as Brother Cui broke these fortresses one by one, the Japanese might collapse."

After hearing this, Tong Meishan was both angry and funny. You really couldn't tell him this guy who didn't know anything. There was no way, Tong Meishan could only explain patiently:

"In that round of launch just now, Brother Cui was already injured internally. He could no longer let him fire the cannon like that, it would be a death. When it comes to launching rocket launchers, our special forces team, brother Cui, is the only one. If another gunner is replaced, it is not certain whether twenty cannons can kill a bunker! We have brought a total of 160 rockets. If it is consumed here, what else can we use to fight the Qing army's warships!"

A rocket is nearly twenty kilograms, and 160 of these 300 people each carry one. After all, they still have to carry gun barrels and other equipment, etc. One hundred and sixty rockets are almost the limit of carrying.

Company Commander Qiu was also a cadet from the Military Academy. At this time, he stood up and said:

"What Brother Tong said is reasonable, and it is not appropriate to do it. Let's kill the Qing army's warship first. Brother Leng is in charge of the command here. Brother Leng just commands. I will rush up with my subordinates. Anyway, the Japanese cannot escape. We only need to attack one line of defense. If we can be faster, we can also accompany time. When Brother Tong kills the Qing army's warship, we will turn around and join forces, and it will be a matter of time to capture the mountain."

Leng Xuhai thought it was reasonable. He had some ways to deal with swords and arrows, but he really didn't understand his temper when dealing with guns, cannons, landmines and other things. The special forces and the new army are experts in this regard. After a practical battle, his brothers were brave, and the results were not good, and there were serious casualties. Besides, this battle was originally aimed at the Qing Navy, but only because of the words of the King of Liao, he had a plan to kill the Japanese first. Leng Xuhai had been through many battles, so how could he not know that the battlefield was changing rapidly. If he didn't know how to respond, he could only be controlled by others, and he could still win. Thinking of this, he no longer insisted.

Tong Meishan felt wider, and he lit up his people and headed eastward.
