Chapter 403 The First Shot of Anti-Japanese
"The little devil is really back now!"
Song Zheyuan never expected that the Japanese army would move so fast and the scope of their movements was unprecedentedly large! When he realized that there were actually four divisions of soldiers entering the pass in two groups, he was almost shocked.
I had a heart attack. I beat the bed board and lamented over and over again. The last trace of luck in my heart was suddenly shattered!
He is really not willing to go to war with Japan! Even if he keeps fighting and taking two steps back, as long as he keeps his reputation and territory, will it be delayed for a day? Now, everything is ruined...
The Japanese army did not leave him any more time to "shock". At 5 a.m. on July 17, the main force of the Japanese army marched into the area east of the Luanhe River without any hindrance. The forwards each reached their intended targets, only fifty kilometers away from the enemy.
Entering Tianjin and Peiping! At the same time, the main force of the Zhengsan garrison on the riverside, which was approaching Wanping, suddenly requested to enter Wanping City for search on the pretext that a soldier had been missing in a surprise attack.
Qin Dechun was the first to learn the news, and immediately ordered his troops to resolutely refuse to comply. He even ordered the guards to prepare for resistance. No matter what, not an inch of ground should be lost!
"You can't lose an inch of land? This is not a good idea!"
At this time, Wang Zhangtang was staying with Brigadier He Jifeng. The joint command headquarters was located outside Peiping City, in a command vehicle at the tank regiment headquarters. He was smiling with an order from the 29th Army Headquarters shaking in his hand.
He said to Brigadier He: "How is it? Have you made up your mind to do it?"
He Jifeng had an upright and cheerful temper. He frowned and studied the order carefully, and then hissed through his molar teeth: "I have no choice! As long as one person in our brigade is here, we can't lose this position! Damn it, little one."
I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don’t eat the food that the Japanese bring to my door! Just do it!”
"Okay! Happy, he is indeed a good man that I, Old Wang, can respect!" Wang Zhangtang raised his thumbs and bared his teeth, smiling a little sinisterly, "Then it's settled, you 110th Brigade will guard the inner city, and the things outside will be taken care of.
Leave it to us! This time, we will definitely let all the little devils go back to their hometown happily!"
He Jifeng glared in disbelief: "Don't be too boastful! Let's see who wins in the end! My men are not as agile as yours, but if we start a war, we may not be able to lose by much!"
Wang Zhangtang laughed loudly: "Let's wait and see! Let's start work. Damn it, whether you will eat dry food or drink water in this life depends on this tremor!"
He Jifeng left the command vehicle in a hurry and hurried to Wulitun. Wang Zhangtang came out and looked up at the sky with a hint of fish belly white. He said twice: "What a good day! Just in time to launch an army to kill him. The bloody gourds are all over the mountains and fields!"
Withdrawing back, there was a shout on the radio, and all the three scattered tank regiments quickly took action. More than a hundred main battle tanks and hundreds of infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, and amphibious combat vehicles were like dormant beasts, each from their hiding place.
Wake up, under the vast camouflage net, the deep roar is pregnant with huge power that is about to explode!
Under Wanping City, by the Marco Polo Bridge, in the dense reeds. Ma Rulong, who is covered in camouflage camouflage, holds a sniper rifle in his hand, with a 10x zoom low-light night vision scope not far away from the bridge head that is firmly set at 600 meters.
The Japanese soldier, who was in a frenzy, kept his fingers firmly on the trigger guard, and his breathing gradually became steady and long. It was almost inaudible. The gun body on his shoulder was as stable as if it was growing on a stone, without any trembling.
The hollow cross of the scope was locked on the forehead of a Japanese squad leader. Just as he was exhaling, his fingers gently pressed down. There was a slight and short "pop" sound, and the top was engraved with a length of five centimeters.
The muzzle of the silenced and retardant structure trembles, and one shot is 7.62x51
mm high-power bullets were fired at high speed with a uniform and smooth trajectory. In less than a second, they accurately plunged into the head of the squad leader, and exploded completely like a watermelon with a "bang" sound.
Dun's dead body froze on the spot for five seconds before falling to the ground!
The loud and strange screams suddenly stopped, followed by the heart-rending voice of the Japanese with a unique accent. A small group of Japanese soldiers rushed to the front like crazy and dragged the body of the team leader.
Seconds later, the crisp sound of gunshots suddenly broke the silence, and there was a sudden and dense sound!
On the bridge, the defenders of the 110th Brigade, who had been nervous and sweating for a long time, were stunned by the heavy shooting. Then they suddenly became alert and climbed into the fortifications and opened fire fiercely.
The battle begins!
Ma Rulong put away the sniper rifle and sneered with a cracked mouth: "Don't fire the first shot? Some people believe this! You're bullied to the door of my house. No matter you shoot first and then shoot, you have to shoot anyway."
, It’s so much fun to fight now, and you won’t have to look forward and backward to kill someone!”
With a gentle wave of his hand behind him, six figures climbed up from the riverside and scurried away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Outside Wanping City, at the Japanese Army Command Headquarters, Zhengsan by the river suddenly heard the report from the front. He stood up abruptly, with a look of shock in his red goldfish eyes, and shouted loudly: "Na Ni?! Are you sure it was the Chinese who fired first?"
A gun?! Good! Very good! This is what they asked for, attack! Attack with all their strength!"
Putting down the phone, he excitedly turned around three times, made a fist with his right hand and punched the palm of his left hand, shouting repeatedly: "Great! This time, I don't see what the Chinese people have to say to defend themselves! How dare they shoot first..."
It’s a pity that we lost a squad leader!”
The next moment, the reorganized First Regiment and Second Regiment, with a total of nearly 4,000 infantrymen and an artillery company, opened fire towards Wanping City in a semi-surrounding manner!
"Boom! Boom!"
The roar of the Japanese 150mm heavy artillery was earth-shattering, and the violent explosion suddenly rose above Wanping City. In an instant, hundreds of artillery shells fell densely like rain, and the exploded broken houses were like hailstones, and the flying fireballs were like hailstones.
Meteors and fire rain descended on the world, instantly turning the small county town into a boiling and burning hell!
"Attack!" Captain Xuan Daogao of the Second Regiment waved his saber almost coldly. Under the cover of four Type 95 medium tanks, a squadron of soldiers slowly pushed toward the Marco Polo Bridge along the road. The specially thickened front
The armor is on the opposite side of the water-cooled Maxim
Under the shooting, sparks splashed in succession. But there was nothing to do. Seeing that they were about to successfully advance to about 400 meters, two 37mm anti-tank guns were suddenly launched from the bridgehead fortress, aiming at the tanks and "booming" them.
Two shots in a row!
The artillerymen of the garrison's 110th Brigade had obviously received serious training. The two shells fired extremely accurately, accurately hitting the front face and turret of the tank. However, after the explosion, only a few rivets collapsed and two bowl-shaped shells were fired.
Dents, but no breakdown!
The Japanese troops in the Type 95 medium tank were very proud. They had already suffered too much from such a big loss, so the manufacturer spared no expense to replace it with 50mm high-strength forged alloy. How could ordinary 37mm anti-tank guns be fired directly?
Wear it! Move forward, keep moving forward!
"Boom!" The tank gun's pressure-cooker-like turret slowly rotated and pointed at the fortifications. It aimed slightly and then fired violently, but the accuracy was obviously not good. The shell deflected by more than one meter and flew far to the rear, falling into the river and exploding.
The water column rises very high.
At the back end of the Marco Polo Bridge, Ji Xingwen was lying in the semi-permanent fortification, nervously watching the soldiers from both sides looming in the smoke in front with a telescope, his lips turned slightly white, and he murmured in a low voice: "Stay steady! You must hold still! Let us go again.
Little devil, come closer! Come closer... Hey! By the way, fire!"
The Japanese tank advanced 250 meters! Stopped again. Steady, aim, and fire! This time, the first two shells accurately hit the sacks and sandbags of the machine gun fort with a boom and explosion. The heavy sacks were blown to pieces, and they were thin and white.
The sand flew out more than ten meters away, and tattered pieces of cloth fluttered down like butterflies. When the smoke dissipated, a one-meter-thick permanently prepared artillery-proof fortification made of reinforced concrete prefabricated parts was revealed behind!
A dozen soldiers spit out the sand in their mouths and climbed up from inside. They carried the 76mm thick long pipe in pairs and aimed it at the clearly visible Japanese tank and the dodging soldiers hiding behind.
Four rounds were fired in a row. After secondary improvements, the much more advanced tail-stabilized split-type recoilless artillery shells flashed out with the sound of wind!
"boom--!"
The first two medium-sized tanks were hit again. But this time they were not so lucky. The tungsten-core armor-piercing head in the middle of the cone-shaped shell slammed into the front armor of the tank and penetrated to the core.
With a violent explosion, the
The half-riveted, half-welded car body blasted out a hole as big as a basin, and the steel plate rivets were flying all over the sky. The occupants inside were squeezed in by the high-temperature, high-speed flames and shock waves, and their mouths and noses were bleeding.
, either dead or injured!
The one who was hit in the turret was even more miserable. The commander who was lying inside and commanding was first blown to pieces, and then the whole turret flew up and separated from the vehicle body. It rolled over and hit the soldiers gathered at the rear, rolling down and crushing him to death.
On the 78th, the screams were astonishing!
The Japanese tanks stopped! The advance of an attacking squadron of soldiers suddenly stopped. At this moment, Ji Xingwen shouted excitedly: "Mortar, blast me hard!"
In the trench between the rear and the city wall, rows of mortars fired in unison, making a muffled "bang bang bang" sound, firing dozens of mortar shells of various sizes and calibers into the sky!
The precise ballistic trajectory caused the artillery shells to fall into the Japanese attacking troops with an average density of one per four square meters. In an instant, the flames flashed and the explosion roared deafeningly. The wildly flying shrapnel swept the more than 200 Japanese soldiers who were at the forefront with a devastating force.
In the middle, their hands and feet were badly damaged by the explosion. In the blink of an eye, sixty or seventy people were lying down, and the rest turned around and ran away in embarrassment!
"Want to run?! It's not that cheap. Give me an extended shot! Blow their butts to pieces!"
It was the first time that Ji Xingwen had mastered such powerful weapons and equipment. Through the telescope, he saw the Japanese army retreating in embarrassment. He couldn't help but reveal his molars in excitement, and shouted and urged.
Behind, more than twenty 60, 81, and 100mm mortars were scattered in piles and clusters, each aiming at a calibrated distance with "all-in-one" rapid fire. The miscellaneous munitions of the Third Route Army pulled from Zhu Bin
Put them all together and play like it’s free of money
Their lives were thrown outward, and each gun fired at least 10 shells before they began to move. In front, extending from the bridge head to 2 kilometers away, a Japanese squadron was almost overwhelmed by the explosion, and fled in embarrassment, rolling and crawling, leaving behind
Nearly a hundred corpses, heavy losses!
"The power of concentrated use of mortars is indeed no worse than that of regular artillery! It's so damn powerful!"
Ji Xingwen repeatedly praised him. He had never known this skill before, let alone the conditions to play it. In a regiment, a few heavy old-fashioned mortars were provided as if they were treasures. How could it be like this today?
How heroic! It’s different now. In the hands of the defenders of a battalion before and after the bridgehead, Guang shot directly
There are more than a dozen recoilless rifles, eight anti-tank guns, and as many as twenty or thirty mortars, as well as the Japanese version of grenade launchers and the Type 92 infantry cannon! Damn it, it’s a fool’s errand.
Since the day I joined the army, I never thought that we could be rich! This kind of equipment is even more powerful than that of the Central Army!
The mortar group collectively moved to another place, and Ji Xingwen shouted loudly: "Pay attention! The kid's bombing revenge is coming soon. Hide them all! Hide them!"
It was as if he had the divine mouth of a prophetic emperor. Almost as soon as he finished shouting, the Japanese bombing artillery fire fell with a tail tone! The bridges, the city heads, and both sides of the river, wherever there might be defenders' fortifications, were all covered in hailstones.
The shells were plowed!
But the density of the shells was obviously not enough. Five minutes later, Ji Xingwen got up from the ground, shook the sand off his head, spat out the stuff in his mouth, and muttered indifferently: "This density is...
It’s such a difference! The artillery fire during our task force training drills was much denser than this, just average!”
He was one of the first members of the officer corps to go to Jinan for training. During the short training period, he not only intensively learned a series of combat command knowledge, but also went to the seaside base to personally experience the thrills of gunboat bombing! After all, prodigal sons.
406mm is not pulled out
The sound of naval guns or 280mm coastal defense guns can be heard, but the 203mm shells are enough. When the sky is covered with an overwhelming bombardment, the earth-shattering feeling makes people feel like flying. In comparison, it is so instigating and poor.
The artillery shells used sparingly by the Japanese army were obviously not enough!
Looking at the Japanese figure in the distance who launched a second charge with the help of the barrage during the bombing, Ji Xingwen's confidence grew to an unprecedented level. I can hold this position! You little devils, just use whatever means you have!
Explosion! The explosion that destroyed the city, the overwhelming explosion, almost completely submerged Wanping City. The defenders who were tightly packed in the fortifications in the city could not stretch out their hands and feet at all. They were not even as comfortable as the people on the outside positions, as if the Japanese army
He seems to have a deep hatred for this small town, and wishes he could throw all the cannonballs into this tiny place!
He Jifeng, who was in the secret headquarters outside, just looked at the situation and couldn't help grinning when he heard the noise. He kept mumbling in his heart: "Brothers, you must resist it! As long as you survive this wave,
Everything will be easier to handle from now on!"
Then he said hard to Wang Zhangtang: "You'd better complete the peripheral work as soon as possible. Don't let me wait too long. If there are serious casualties, I will risk my life for you!"
Five kilometers outside of Changxindian, Wang Zhangtang was sitting safely in the command vehicle, quietly listening to the telegrams and various messages coming from the radio station. No matter how earth-shaking the explosion was outside, it seemed that it had nothing to do with him, until there was a burst of thunder in the distant sky.
When the roar came, he suddenly opened his eyes and smiled ferociously: "Here he comes!"!~!
