Bright Sword: Starting from the Improved Grenade

Hexi Corridor, Jiuquan Gobi Desert, P-2 Missile Research Base.

“Is this the P-2 missile?”

Inside the assembly plant, Zhao Tianyang looked at the weapon in front of him that he had been researching for more than three years and said with emotion: "It's really powerful!"

"mighty?"

When Paul Schmidt heard this, he asked curiously, "Does it mean to be domineering?"

"almost!"

Zhao Tianyang walked over and touched the missile: "Have the specific data come out?"

"Out!"

Paul Schmidt took out a notebook and said, "According to our calculations, this short-range missile has a total length of 17.7 meters, a maximum diameter of 1.65 meters, a take-off weight of 20.5 tons, and a range of about 590 to 600 kilometers."

"Liquid oxygen or alcohol is used as propellant, and inertial guidance and radio lateral deviation correction are used for guidance."

"Its flight trajectory can be tracked using tandem radar and it can carry a 1300kg high-explosive warhead."

"very good."

Zhao Tianyang nodded with satisfaction.

A 1.3-ton high-explosive warhead can sink most of the warships and fortresses in the world today with one shot.

"Of course this is just ideal data!"

"We have not tested it in combat so far because it is expensive," Paul Schmidt stressed.

"There is also the launch method. Logically speaking, the best way to launch this kind of missile is to place it on a vehicle and launch it."

"Or we can use missile silos to launch them, but we can only use launch pads for now."

“So many questions!”

Zhao Tianyang smiled faintly and said, "But don't worry, you will be able to conduct a practical test soon!"

"A combat test?"

Paul Schmidt was delighted: "When and where?"

"Two weeks later, we will attack the Japanese fleet in Tianjin!"

Zhao Tianyang smiled faintly.

"no problem!"

Paul Schmidt said without hesitation, not caring at all whether the Japanese were still Germany's allies.

"We have a finished missile now, and we can have another one in two weeks."

"Okay, then let's test the data of two at a time!"

Soon, with all parties making intensive preparations, the time came two weeks later.

First, Commander Lin returned to the outskirts of Tianjin and issued an order to the embassies of various countries in the city and the Japanese garrison that was still resisting to attack the next day.

The embassy in the city was in an uproar. Although the Japanese and Chinese armies were fighting, the embassy would not be affected under normal circumstances.

But whenever there is a war, there will inevitably be accidental casualties, so the embassies sent envoys to visit Commander Lin, hoping that he would give up the idea of ​​attacking Tianjin.

To this end, they could help mediate and let the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army divide Tianjin equally, with the Eighth Route Army occupying most of Tianjin and the Japanese army occupying the port of Tianjin, and the two sides not interfering with each other.

"Are you kidding me?"

Commander Lin looked at the envoys from various countries with dissatisfaction: "Tianjin is Chinese territory. How to deal with Chinese territory is up to us. It is not your turn to make decisions!"

"Commander Lin doesn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter?"

The American envoy looked at Commander Lin with pride and said, "Don't forget, without our assistance, you would have been annexed by Japan long ago."

"Haha, without your support, the Japanese army would not have been able to launch the war of aggression against China!"

Commander Lin's eyes turned cold, and he said firmly: "We must fight for Tianjin. If you stay in the embassy honestly, I can guarantee your safety."

"If you insist on causing trouble, our more than 400,000 troops in North China will not be pushovers!"

"Humph... you are so stubborn!"

Watching the envoys from various countries leaving, the Chief of Staff looked at Commander Lin worriedly: "Commander, would it be bad to offend so many countries at once?"

"rest assured!"

Commander Lin waved his hand nonchalantly: "When we came back, Zhuxi told us that blindly compromising will only make them worse."

"Only by seeking peace through struggle can they know how to live in peace with us!"

...........

The next day, four airships arrived in Langfang, escorted by two reconnaissance planes and sixteen fighter jets.

"Hurry, be careful."

After getting off the airship, Paul Schmidt immediately began to direct the technicians to move the launch pad and assemble missiles!

Zhao Tianyang was taken to the pre-war meeting room.

"From the information we have obtained from reconnaissance, the 362 Japanese garrison troops in Tianjin Port are not to be feared. The main problem is the Japanese fleet stationed in the port."

In front of a map, Commander Lin held a baton, pointed at the map and explained to Zhao Tianyang and others.

"The Japanese fleet came from the Japanese naval base in Qingdao. Their commander is Kaneko Shigeharu, a lieutenant general."

"The fleet consists of a first-class second-class destroyer, with three single-mounted 120mm 45-caliber th-year naval guns as the main guns, and a range of up to meters."

"The shells alone weigh 22.68 kilograms, and it can fire 10 shells per minute. It is also Kaneko Shigeharu's flagship."

"A Hibiki-class coastal defense ship, with a single 120mm 45-caliber -year naval gun as its main gun."

"Two river gunboats, armed with two 2mm guns and four machine guns."

"Four torpedo boats, with two 450mm torpedo tubes as the primary weapon and a twin 1-inch Lewis machine gun as the secondary weapon."

"Based on the firepower here, it would be difficult for infantry to break into Tianjin Port alone, and even if they did, they would suffer heavy casualties."

"And there is a small team of Zero fighters at the Qingdao naval base. These are all issues that need to be considered!"

“It’s very powerful!”

Zhao Tianyang touched his chin and looked at Commander Lin: "What do you think?"

"It's simple. Don't they have strong firepower?"

Commander Lin said coldly: "Then we must be stronger than them. I have already applied for 107 long-range rockets and rocket launchers."

"The troops will enter Tianjin's Jinnan District under cover of night, directly launch rockets, and use firepower to cover and eliminate them."

"Six hundred rockets, even if they can't sink his destroyer, they can at least kill all the navy on it!"

"atmosphere!"

Zhao Tianyang gave a thumbs up and praised: "But before launching, can you let me try it first?"

"You mean the new weapon?"

Commander Lin's heart moved and he thought of the four airships that had just followed Zhao Tianyang.

"That's right. It will be assembled around 2 a.m. tonight. Wait for us to fire a round first. If it doesn't have a very good effect, you guys can fire rockets!"

"Row!"
