Chapter 177: How can there be peace in Dragon Country...
Railway gun!
To be more precise, it should be called the Type 240 mm railway cannon!
It was a type of artillery that was delivered by the Japanese in 1940 and officially entered service last year, that is, in 1941. It is a veritable heavy artillery!
The gun barrel is 12.823 meters long and weighs 35 tons.
The entire railway gun system includes artillery, ammunition carts and power locomotives, with a total weight of 136 tons.
This gun has two types of shells, grenades and armor-piercing explosive shells. The armor-piercing explosive shells have a range of 50 kilometers, and the grenades have a longer range of 52 kilometers.
The shell alone weighs 164.95 kilograms!
A shell weighing more than 300 pounds can be said to be much stronger than ordinary artillery in terms of range and power!
You know, the top charge of the M198 155mm howitzer shell is only 47 kilograms, which is completely not on the same level!
However, Qin Long remembered that according to historical records of later generations.
This railway gun should have been deployed to the Kwantung Army's Tiger Head Fortress in January 42.
Why are you here?
Qin Long thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up.
No matter what the reason was for him to be transferred from Guandong to North China, the gun is his now!
It just so happened that Stone Village was still lacking a super cannon to defend the village, and now the Japanese devils have come to the door!
Of course, if you want this gun, you have to first get rid of the Japanese who are responsible for guarding the train and the railway gun.
"Ready to fight!"
Qin Long immediately ordered:
"Tanks will cover the infantry and push forward. Only guns and machine guns are allowed, no artillery fire. Don't damage my heavy artillery!"
Shuisheng and Tiezhu immediately rushed forward with the infantry and tanks.
at the same time.
Next to the train gun.
The Japanese squadron leader Ono Jusan was looking at the railway gun in front of him with envy and said to another Japanese squadron leader Yamamoto Fifteen:
"Yamamoto-kun, I really envy you. The Empire only has one heavy artillery like this!"
"That is!"
Yamamoto Fifteen said with pride:
"This heavy artillery is the military's treasure!"
"If it weren't for General Ishii's strong request, the military would not be willing to transfer this treasure from Hutou Fortress."
"Search Desne!"
Ono Jusan said with a flattering look:
"Mr. Yamamoto is truly valued by His Excellency Commander-in-Chief Yamamoto!"
"But since the Commander-in-Chief thinks so highly of Yamamoto-kun, why not transfer you to the Navy?"
"What do you know?"
Yamamoto Fifteen said proudly:
"Ever since the outbreak of the Pacific War, the navy has been in great danger. How can we be as safe as we are in Dragon Country..."
"Snapped!"
But before it could finish its words, a bullet blew its head off in front of Ono Jusan.
"Eight……"
Ono Jusan, who was only stunned for a moment because of fear, reacted and immediately drew out his command knife to call his men!
But it didn't expect that it would be shot in the head right after.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
"Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!"
Under the cover of the tank machine gun fire, Shuisheng and Tiezhu led the infantry to kill the Japanese soldiers one by one.
Because before leaving, Kojiro Ochiai, who had turned into charcoal, had instructed these Japanese devils to guard the train, especially the railway gun!
So these little Japanese soldiers didn't dare to hide in the train to slack off, and they all stood outside honestly to perform their duties.
But Ochiai Kojiro estimated that even if he went to the underworld, Biliangsaka would never have imagined that this arrangement of his would help Qin Long.
There were only two squadrons of Japanese soldiers responsible for guarding the train and the railway gun, and they were all outside.
So they were wiped out before they could even put up any resistance.
If there were any Japanese soldiers hiding in the train and slacking off, Qin Long might have to be cautious in order to protect the train artillery.
But there was not a single Japanese soldier on the train.
Therefore, less than ten seconds after the battle started, a system prompt sounded in Qin Long's mind.
【恭喜宿主杀死小鬼子180人,共获得10x180=1800积分】x2
[Congratulations to the host for killing the Japanese squadron leader and gaining 1 points] x500
Qin Long couldn't stop smiling after easily taking down the Type 240 mm train cannon.
Qin Long asked Shuisheng and Tiezhu to lead the infantry to clean up the battlefield, and came to the Type 240 mm train cannon.
"System, is there any way to get rid of this thing?"
When in doubt, ask Tongzi for help. This is a basic operation for time travelers.
[Yes, there are currently three options for the host to choose from]
[Option 10: The host spends 10 points to disassemble this cannon into its components, then transports them separately. Upon arrival, the host spends another points to reassemble the cannon.]
[Option 30: The host spends points to convert this artillery piece and its carrier platform into a self-propelled artillery piece.]
[Note: The performance of the self-propelled artillery has been improved very little compared to before the modification.]
[Option 100: The host spends million points to upgrade this artillery piece and its carrier platform into an extremely advanced self-propelled artillery piece]
[Note: The host can continue to invest points during the strengthening and modification process. The final performance strength of the self-propelled artillery will be determined by the host's total investment points.]
"hiss!!!"
Qin Long took a breath of cold air, then directly pulled out the system panel!
[Host: Qin Long]
[Constitution: 16] (normal adult male limit 10)
[Spirit: 15] (normal adult male limit 10)
Points: 587
[Skills: Hundred Steps Aim, Heroic Spirit, Encouragement (Super), Swiftness (Advanced)]
[Item: 1 Passive Skill Upgrade Card]
[Pre-stored: White Phosphorus Bomb]
【Total number of Japanese soldiers killed: 11】
Looking at the total points of 587 million, Qin Long subconsciously chose option three!
Although 100 million points can be exchanged for a Peacemaker, which is also known as the little fat man nuclear bomb.
But that thing will only be effective if thrown at the Japanese homeland. Throwing it at the land of Longguo is really a scam.
But this artillery is different. What if the modified self-propelled artillery is enhanced to a point where its power is only slightly less than that of a nuclear bomb?
But then, Qin Long closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
When he opened his eyes again, Qin Long had regained his composure:
"System, if you only spend 100 million points, no further investment will be made."
"How much stronger is the final modified self-propelled gun than the one that cost 30 points to modify?"
[The host spends 100 million points to only enable enhanced modification. If you do not continue to invest points, it is equivalent to basic modification. ]
Qin Long thought to himself, as expected!
He almost fell into Tongzi's language trap just now!
In this case, Qin Long has nothing to hesitate about:
"System, I choose option two."
[Host spends 30 points and begins modification... Modification completed]
It only took one second for the system to complete the modification of the Type 240 mm train cannon.
But just when Qin Long was about to take a closer look at the difference between this railway gun before and after the modification.
The intercom on his waist emitted the voice of the artillery observation post:
"Captain! The first batch of Japanese reinforcements has arrived in Jinan and immediately occupied Zhangzhuang Airport."
"No rush. Except for artillery observation posts 41 to 50, who will stay to monitor the movements of the Japanese, everyone else should come and join me immediately."
Qin Long looked at the railway gun in front of him and suddenly had an idea...
