Chapter 386: Not a Good Gunner, but a Great Gunner.
Tommy held a gun barrel, took two steps back, then turned back and ran quickly, then knelt down on one knee, put the gun barrel on the deck, held the gun barrel with his left hand, and then picked it up with his right hand. A mortar shell with a fuse was placed into the muzzle.
There was an explosion, and a target on the sea shattered.
Using only one barrel, Tomi demonstrated an unconventional cannon shot by a single player at high speed, relying only on the location of the target in memory.
Surprise, Tommy's demonstration gave Gao Yang a surprise.
Mortars have little technical content and can be used just by looking at them. However, being able to shoot out shells is one thing, and whether they can hit them accurately is another matter.
Grolev knew how to use mortars, and he also taught a group of students. But the problem was that Grolev himself was a half-assed person, and the students he taught were only half-assed. They didn’t know the ballistic table of artillery shells. , after a lot of shooting training, I have only mastered a rough range, and I don’t know how to correct the windage. In addition to being able to hit large crowds, I can’t hit other targets. Therefore, the artillery of the Skeleton Gang can only hit Bully the idiots like the Mokadi faction.
Knowing the orientation and distance of the target, knowing the type and ballistic table of the mortar shells used, and being able to launch according to the situation at that time, if you can do these things, you are a qualified gunner who can hit the target accurately under normal conditions. It is not difficult, and it can well complete tasks such as providing fire support to infantry, blocking enemy pursuit, and attacking enemy fire points.
The main components of a mortar are four major parts, the barrel and the bipod. Seat plate. There is also the aiming device. And using only one barrel, it can complete the launch without any other parts, and it can still fire accurately. I won't say how difficult it is to do this. The key is that for Gao Yan and the others, this unique skill is too real. It worked.
The mortar Tomi shot was the Type 63 60mm mortar. This gun weighs 12.5 kilograms, which is not too heavy. But the size is not small. If you leave the vehicle, it will be too difficult to travel and fight with a mortar. But if you only carry a barrel, all problems will be solved immediately.
The weight of a single barrel is only 4.5 kilograms. In other words, when Tommy can carry a complete set of equipment for an infantryman, he can definitely bring an additional barrel to give the Satan Mercenary Group the firepower of a mortar. , and the price they need to pay for exalting them. Just bring an extra 1.33kg anti-personnel grenade per person.
After Tommy fired, Gao Yang immediately applauded vigorously. Smiling: "That's great, Tommy, that's great, an impressive bombardment."
Tommy shook his head and said, "Sir, the target hasn't been shot yet."
The total barrel length of the Type 63 60mm mortar is 618mm.
The bottom is an iron ball, which is used to rest on the seat plate. After the mortar is fired once, the recoil force causes the position of the barrel to move some.
Tommy repositioned the gun barrel, but then shook his head, then took the seat plate over, placed the gun barrel on the seat plate, and said loudly: "Everyone, who can help load the ammunition?"
Grolev immediately said: "I'm here, do you have any requirements?"
Tommy shook his head and said: "There is no requirement. When I say release, you just put the cannonball into the muzzle."
After finishing speaking, Tommy held the barrel of the gun with both hands, still knelt on one knee, stepped on the seat plate with one foot, and then said: "Three rapid fires, fire."
Grolev loaded a shell and waited for the mortar to be fired. The unfixed mounting plate on the deck moved a little. After slightly adjusting the muzzle, Tommy said urgently: "Let it go!"
Tommy shouted three times in a row and fired three shells. Then, the three shells basically landed near the same target.
The target was smashed as expected, but Tommy looked very dissatisfied. He shook his head and said to Gao Yang: "Sir, because we are on a ship, I can't fix the barrel, so I can only borrow it." It's mounted, and I need help loading it, and if I'm on land, I don't need to mount it and I don't need help loading it, and in fact, I haven't fired a full mortar in a long time."
One person and one barrel can complete the coverage bombing. Gao Yang was already smiling from ear to ear. He nodded repeatedly and said: "I understand, I understand. You have performed well enough. Very, very good. Good job." It’s beyond my expectation.”
Tommy didn't feel proud at all after being exaggerated. He nodded and said, "Sir, there are also targets."
It turns out that Tommy's surprise for Gao Yang is yet to come.
Just looking up at the positions of the last two targets, Tommy lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to Grolev: "Please help me load the shells again, thank you."
Tomi aimed at a target and shouted "Release". Grolev loaded the cannon with no shells. After the cannon ejected from the chamber, Tommy adjusted the muzzle very quickly with lightning speed. , and immediately shouted again.
Gao Yang could see clearly that two artillery shells landed next to the same target and exploded almost at the same time. Tommy's performance was not over yet. After quickly adjusting the muzzle, he fired twice in succession, and the two artillery shells fired again. They were fired one after another, but they landed on the sea almost at the same time. Although the second shell was slightly farther from the target, it was definitely within the killing distance of the shell.
By adjusting the shooting angle, we can achieve the effect of two shells being fired one after another and falling at the same time. We still use only one barrel, shoot two targets continuously, observe the targets visually, and calculate the ballistics in a very short time. Well, It was still too much. With Gao Yang's limited knowledge of mortars, he knew that Tommy had done the impossible.
Gao Yang didn't know what to say. He just looked at Tommy with dumbfounded eyes, and Gao Yang was not the only one who was stunned.
Tommy shocked the whole audience. This time there was neither applause nor cheers, because everyone was still in a sluggish state after being suppressed.
Only Tommy seemed dissatisfied with his results. After shaking his head, he said to Gao Yang: "I'm sorry that I messed up, sir, because the range is too close and I can't make two shells explode at the same time. If If it is replaced with a 120mm mortar, I will definitely be able to do it, of course, this will require someone to assist."
After Gao Yang was stunned for a moment, he looked at Tommy as if he were an alien, shook his head, and said: "Tommy, I found that you are not a good gunner. You are a magic gunner. Yes, you are a god. Gunner!" (To be continued...)
