Chapter 79 Pros and Cons!
Lin Rui continued to introduce: "Type 70 infantry gun, caliber 10mm, high and low firing angle: -75 degrees to +70 degrees. Types of projectiles fired: [-]mm high-explosive shells/shrapnel shells/smoke shells."

"The most commonly used is the high-explosive shell, which weighs [-] kilograms. Among the guns of this caliber, the power is quite impressive."

"Muzzle velocity: 198 m/s, maximum range: 2788 meters, minimum range: 100 meters,
Mode of transportation: vehicle/animal power/human dragging, or decomposed transportation. "

"One of the biggest advantages of this artillery is that it is light."

"The total weight of the gun: 0.212 tons, or 212 kg, 414 catties. It should be considered the lightest among infantry guns of the same caliber."

"It's relatively easy to transport because of its light weight and ease of disassembly."

"Using a car, dragging it with mules and horses, or even dismantling it, a few people can carry him away."

"Of course, it's not realistic to carry him for a long march. After all, it weighs four hundred catties, so it's still too heavy for a human to carry."

"But in combat, this advantage can be used."

"We can even easily lift him to the top of the mountain, condescending and shelling the enemy."

"So this gun is also very suitable for us, because our Eighth Route Army now mainly relies on guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines to attack little devils."

"And this artillery is light in weight, easy to disassemble and easy to transfer."

The brigade commander nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad, the introduction is very detailed."

"It seems that you have done your homework."

Lin Rui quickly said: "I'm just learning and selling now."

The brigade commander smiled and said: "Then you continue!"

Lin Rui came to a mountain cannon next to it, patted the cannon barrel and said, "This cannon is much bigger than the Type [-] infantry cannon."

"This is the devil's 41-type mountain cannon, which was developed by the devil in Meiji [-], and it can be regarded as a relatively good mountain cannon."

"But now the little devil has developed a more advanced Type [-] mountain cannon to replace the Type [-] mountain cannon."

"However, the [-]-style mountain artillery is quite common among the devil's troops, especially among the garrison troops in various places of the little devil."

"The caliber of the gun is 75mm, the height range: left -8 degrees to +25 degrees, the direction range: 3.5 degrees left, 2.5 degrees right, the total length of the row: 3380mm, the total length of the row: 4152mm, the total weight: 540 kg , Muzzle velocity: 342 meters per second, maximum range: 6000 meters, movement mode: two horses pull, six horses carry

Types of shells: grenade (5.74 kg), cone grenade (3.74 kg), armor-piercing shell (6.575 kg). "

"This mountain cannon is also very common on the battlefield in Shanxi, because Yan Laoxi's Taiyuan Arsenal has imitated a large number of this mountain cannon."

"Therefore, the Jinsui Army is also equipped with many of these mountain cannons, but there are still some differences between the Taiyuan imitation and the little devil's."

"And after the fall of Taiyuan, Yan Laoxi couldn't make this kind of mountain cannon anymore, and now they have lost one and lost one."

"Our Eighth Route Army is poorly equipped, especially in terms of heavy weapons. We have no production capacity and can only rely on seizures."

"So the guns equipped by the troops are very rare, so this gun is also a very good mountain gun for us."

The brigade commander smiled and said, "Yes, what you said is comprehensive enough."

"What is this cannon? It looks even more majestic than these [-]-style mountain cannons."

The brigade commander walked up to an Italian cannon, walked around it, and took a closer look. It was the first time for the well-informed brigade commander Chen to see this kind of cannon.

Lin Rui quickly explained: "Brigadier, this is an Italian cannon."

"It is an M34 mountain gun produced in Italy, and its caliber is also 75mm."

“炮管长1.557米,射角—10度到45度。炮口初速度425米,最大射程九千500米,炮弹重6.4公斤。”

"This artillery can be regarded as a relatively good mountain cannon, and its performance is far superior to that of the little devil's [-]-type mountain cannon."

"In terms of power, it is stronger than the Type [-] mountain cannon, and its range is far longer than that of the Type [-] mountain cannon."

"However, there are advantages and disadvantages. This Italian cannon is relatively heavy, weighing more than one ton. This weight is twice that of the Type [-] mountain cannon."

"In the process of transportation, it is not as flexible as the Type [-] mountain cannon."

"Furthermore, the Italian cannon must be quite rare among the little devils, because the little devils are mainly equipped with weapons produced by themselves."

"And among the armies of our country there are hardly any Italian weapons."

"So I'm also curious, where did the little devil get these two Italian cannons."

Brigadier Chen waved his hand and said: "This is indeed a bit strange, but no matter what, this thing is a good thing."

Lin Rui went on to say: "But the little devil has little equipment, and it is difficult for us to replenish it by capturing it." "

"So once the shells are used up, this thing is scrap iron. Even if the shells are not used up, once these vulnerable parts fail, it is difficult for us to get replacements."

"Haha~!"

Brigadier Chen laughed and said, "You little comrade, you are quite demanding."

"For us, these cannons are rare things. They can be used once and counted once. How can we manage so much?"

"That's true." Lin Rui nodded with a smile.

Li Yunlong looked at Lin Rui curiously, and said, "I didn't even know that you know so much."

Lin Rui smiled and said, "I've been researching this thing for the past two days!"

"As I said just now, I'm learning and selling now!"

The brigade commander circled around the cannons and said with a smile, "This time, your harvest is really not small. You actually captured so many cannons."

"This is definitely the first time in our military history."

"But you, an independent regiment, can't use so many cannons."

Li Yunlong quickly said: "Brigade Commander, you can just leave half of it for us."

The brigade commander waved his hand and said, "No, half is too much. Do you know how many people are needed for this mountain cannon?"

"How many artillery do you have, and can you use so many artillery?"

"I think it's enough to leave you with two [-]-type infantry guns and a few mortars. I'll take all the rest."

Li Yunlong became anxious immediately, and quickly said: "No, this is absolutely not possible, you should just kill me."

The brigade commander's face was serious, and he said with a serious face: "Li Yunlong, what is the third of the three disciplines?"

Li Yunlong replied with a bitter face: "Everything seized must be returned to the public."

"Then do you have anything else to say?" The brigade commander said with a serious face: "If you continue to babble, I will take all of you away, and I will not leave you a single door."

Li Yunlong quickly said: "Brigade Commander, you promised me that you will give me a lenient treatment. You can't be so domineering!"

"That's generous enough," said the brigade commander with a smile.

At this moment, Lin Rui said, "Brigade Commander, you can take the gun away, but can you promise me a request?"

The brigade commander frowned slightly, and asked, "Request? What request? Tell me first."
