A artillery position needs the close cooperation of many people to operate normally. Reconnaissance soldiers, computing soldiers and communication soldiers usually stay in the front artillery command post.
There are also artillery positions, such as gunner, aiming hand, gunner, loader, etc.
In addition, most of them are logistics personnel, such as drivers driving and pulling traction guns to and fro, cooking, first aid, etc.
For Gao Yang, what he needs most now are artillery, reconnaissance, computing and communication soldiers. Another thing he must have is excellent artillery commanders and sightseers. With these people, a company or even two heavy artillery companies can survive by slightly expanding them. With the old leading the new for two years, the two companies can become two regiments.
As for other positions, such as gunner, loader, driver and logistics personnel, they can be trained by themselves, because these positions are not very professional.
The wizard took Gao Yang directly to the artillery position, but Gao Yang wanted to go to the command post.
In response to Gao Yang's request, the wizard didn't refuse. He just waved and whispered, "come here from the command post."
As soon as they were about to leave, Gao Yang saw a man on the position suddenly roaring. Then those lazy people guarding next to the cannon immediately moved, opened the camouflage net to block the shooting boundary, and the Gunners quickly shook the rocking wheels of the high-low aircraft and the directional aircraft.
With the cooperation of many gunners, a cannon completed the work of adjusting the range and aiming in less than two minutes. Then, with the command of the artillery array commander, a cannon quickly selected the shell and waist bag, and then shot out with a sound.
It takes two and a half minutes from preparation to the completion of the first shot, which is fast enough.
The gun array commander received the command from the headquarters with a microphone, and then he quickly gave the firing order.
"All of them, six quick shots, fire!"
Just one shell set the coordinates, and then it was fired quickly. This efficiency is also high enough.
The people in the artillery array wear a variety of clothes, including military uniforms, casual clothes, shorts and bare arms, as well as dirty suits. Their age is also seriously inconsistent. Some people look at young people in their twenties, middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, and even some old people with white hair.
But it was such a group of people who looked very different from the artillery who did the artillery work very well.
Loading, firing, Gao Yang dared to guarantee that these people had hit the maximum firing speed of 152 towed guns. He looked at his watch. Sure enough, six shells had been fired in a minute.
After six quick shots, the artillery commander shouted, "move the position!"
Many Gunners immediately stopped firing. When the artillery position was in a hurry, Phoenix Contact said with surprise: "who are they? They don't look like soldiers. Look at them, they are a group of civilians."
"Yes, they are the militia."
"Are you kidding? Is the militia so powerful?"
Shouting the trumpet, put away the hoe, put away the gun rack, the truck pulling the gun drove behind the gun, hung the gun on the car, drove and ran with the gun. In less than a minute, the whole gun position had begun to shift.
Gao Yang pointed to the quick artillery and said to Phoenix: "I'll tell you a trick. It's easy to distinguish the elite or cannon fodder of Russians. You can see it from your clothes, but on the contrary, if you wear neat military uniforms, they must be recruits' eggs and have no combat effectiveness. If you look at some people who are dirty and sloppy, wear messy clothes and beards like a tramp, but they all wear sea clothes Soul shirt, then you have met an elite army. "
While talking, the artillery position was empty and everyone disappeared without a trace. Gao Yang clapped his hand and smiled at Phoenix: "as a sniper, if you don't know these, you will suffer a great loss. Well, let's run quickly."
With his mouth talking, his feet were not idle. He held high that they ran fast. Why did they run? Because the enemy's retaliatory firepower will come soon.
When Gao Yang and his men ran more than 300 meters, the shells began to fall on the artillery position just now. Gao Yang looked at his watch and said with a smile: "the counterattack time is five minutes, and the enemy's artillery is OK."
Phoenix whispered, "if it were the U.S. Army, it would be able to launch a counterattack against the enemy's artillery position within 30 seconds."
Gao Yang said with a smile, "you're right, but the U.S. Army has artillery reconnaissance radar and computer-controlled self-propelled artillery. You know when the artillery fires here and there. The counterattack will naturally be fast, but it's different here. Everything here is done manually. Five minutes is very good. If the U.S. Army can counterattack in ten minutes, do you believe it?"
Phoenix Contact spread his hand without speaking. Gao Yang stopped and said to the wizard, "well, now the position of the heavy artillery has shifted. Where can we find them?"
"I don't know."
The wizard shook his head and said, "I don't know where they will move. I can't know their position until he selects a new artillery position and reports to the headquarters."
"It's impossible," he frowned. "You always have backup positions that have been set up. Do you change new positions every time?"
"Yes, as I said, the enemy's air reconnaissance is still very powerful. The standing position can't be used at all. After being detected, the enemy will preset coordinates, so our artillery can only keep changing positions."
Gao Yang waved his hand and said helplessly, "then wait. I appreciate the heavy artillery company just now."
In the civil war in Ukraine, artillery is one of the protagonists in the battlefield. It is not like the low firepower war in Libya or Syria, and the artillery trained here is naturally what is needed to raise high.
If Gao Yang has a high-tech self-propelled gun in his hand, he will not come to Ukraine to find artillery, but he can only afford old-fashioned towed artillery, so Ukraine is naturally his best choice to recruit soldiers.
Several people waited for about half an hour. After talking to the headquarters, the wizard said to Gao Yang, "we know their location. Let's go there now."
"Wizard, we are all old friends. Let me be frank. I want the whole headquarters of the heavy artillery company just now, OK?"
The wizard smiled and said to Gao Yang, "OK, in fact, we don't lack artillery. We don't lack artillery in any position. The only problem is that they have to go with you."
