Just like what Liu Zhiguo said, although the Japanese used an overt scheme, they did not get what they wanted in the end!
After wasting more than half an hour, Kimura was furious.""Hashimoto-kun, when will the Mountain Cannon Troop arrive?”
Hashimoto thought for a moment and said," Commander, the 18th division has just been reorganized. We still have a lot of heavy equipment to equip. Tanks, tanks, and cannons are all very scarce. It will be difficult for the division to provide support. We have to wait patiently.”
Alright, how could Omura not know about the predicament the 18th division was in? However, what could he do? He was anxious. The entire regiment had been stopped. Would the regiment still be able to complete their mission?
Waiting was not a good idea. Omura thought for a long time and said,""Order the artillery to cover the bombardment and send the infantry to the building.”
A moment later, the cannon that had just stopped sounded again.
In the warehouse, the Iron Blood Army only had a few observers on duty. At this time, they immediately reported if anything was wrong.
"Commander, the Japanese are coming up, but because of the smoke, we can't accurately determine the number of people.”
He came up? Liu Zhiguo was stunned for a moment before cursing inwardly,"Damn it, you really can't believe in TV dramas!"
"Second Platoon, Third Platoon, get into position immediately. First Platoon, be the reserve team.”
The Type 92 Infantry Cannon was not a threat to the warehouse, but the waves and smoke from the explosion were the best cover.
Liu Zhiguo endured the discomfort of the hot air waves and observed carefully. The smoke was thick and choking, and his vision was indeed blocked.
"Second Platoon Leader, it's hard to determine the number of Japanese soldiers.”
"Understood."
Because their line of sight was blocked, the Iron Blood Army did not dare to get too close to the Japanese. They opened fire more than 200 meters away.
..............
At the end of Guangfu Road, the 88th Division was moving to another place to continue dealing with the Japanese, but
Sun Yuanliang looked at the four-row warehouse that was constantly enveloped by artillery fire, his face full of doubt," What was going on? The Japanese even dared to blow up Old Ying's warehouse? Hmm, that's not right. Could it be that the intense gunfire last night was also the same? What was going on?
"No, we must find out why there is such an unstable factor in our defense zone!”
Moments later, although the reconnaissance company had already been dispatched, Sun Yuanliang could not calm down no matter what. After thinking about it, he finally picked up the phone and dialed it.
The call went through, and Sun Yuanliang was the first to speak," Younger Brother Yu Nong, the war is urgent. I need your intelligence support, the sooner the better. The situation is like this."
With four rows of warehouses and two rows of firepower, even if their line of sight was blocked, it would be extremely difficult for the Japanese to charge into a hundred-meter radius!
"Hashimoto-kun, how many soldiers do you think there are in the building?”
Hashimoto thought for a moment and said," From the analysis of the gunshots, the scale should not be large, but I can't be sure that it's all.”
Omura nodded. Although the enemy's firepower was strong and the density of ammunition was not to be underestimated, as he had guessed, the scale of the army should not be large. Should he take the risk?
"Hashimoto-kun, if I join forces…"
At this moment, a signalman ran over," Reporting to the regiment commander, the Mountain Cannon Brigade is in place.”
"If you want to go to the west, order them to immediately start. En, order Fujita to retreat. There's no need to continue losing.”
Omura was a little happy. The mountain cannon that the division had sent was very timely. How should I put it, the 18th division was a newly reorganized third division, and it only had one artillery regiment!
Artillery regiment: 36 75mm mountain cannons, 12 75mm field cannons, 3300-3700 personnel.
The infantry cannons did not stop. A few minutes later, the mountain cannons joined in, and a large number of shells continued to pour into the four rows of warehouses.
Such a terrifying scene caused the scouting team sent by Sun Yuanliang to retreat before they dared to get close!
"Swoosh swoosh…"
"Boom boom…"
Fifteen minutes later, the artillery stopped firing. When the smoke dissipated, the Japanese were dumbfounded again!
"Baka, what the hell? A building that even mountain cannons couldn't destroy, this was too illogical!”
Omura found it hard to believe. The mountain cannon that he had high hopes for was still ineffective at this moment. What should he do? If they did not remove this obstacle, how would the regiment be able to connect the entire Guangfu Road before dawn tomorrow?
Just as Omura was getting angry, a golden dragon flag was raised in the warehouse building, as if it was mocking the incompetence of the Japanese army!
"Baka, this is a provocation.”Omura brandished his military knife, looking like he couldn't hold it in anymore.
Hashimoto didn't know how to comfort him anymore, because when faced with a fortification that cannons couldn't do, he could only use people to fill in the gaps!
"The Empire's conquest of China cannot be stopped, let alone a small building!”
Omura said," Order the first brigade to immediately launch an attack. Use a wave-like attack method. The second and third are ready to take over and execute it immediately."”
The messenger immediately went to convey the order.
The warehouse had been bombarded for a while. Although the building did not suffer much damage, the staff members were not spared. Their ears were still buzzing!
Shaking his head, Liu Zhiguo shook off the ringing in his ears and said,"Brothers, cheer up. The Japanese's artillery fire didn't work. They'll definitely launch a crazy charge next.”
The densely packed heads approached from afar. Soon, they were 500 meters away. When they saw that the enemy had not fired at 400 meters and 200 meters away, the Japanese sped up and charged forward!
About 150 meters away, Liu Zhiguo fired first, followed by Second Platoon and Third Platoon.
"Da da da…"
"Tututu…"
The powerful firepower was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, harvesting the heads of the Japanese like cutting wheat.
The Japanese machine gunners were also firing back frantically to cover their own men from getting closer to the target or rushing into the building. Then, they would use their bayonet to tell those despicable Chinese people who only knew how to hide in the building and shoot that the dignity of the empire could not be provoked!
The battle continued. The Japanese fired their mortars and grenade launchers. However, the four-row warehouse had been modified too wretchedly. The original windows were all sealed, and the shooting holes were about the size of basins. It was too difficult for the Japanese to accurately throw the shells in!
What, you said the barrel was red? Never mind, let's fight again
Liu Zhiguo was happy when he entered the crazy kill mode, and Omura was crying. However, war was cruel.
two hours later
" Commander, the 1st Battalion has lost more than 80% of their forces, but they still haven't been able to charge into the building. We're requesting the 2nd Battalion to take over."”
"Agreed!"
Omura's face darkened." Hashimoto-kun, don't you find it strange? The enemy's firepower seems to have never weakened."”
" Yes, Commander." Hashimoto frowned deeply." The Guangfu Road that our division is responsible for is the defense zone of the 88th Division of the China National Army. The garrison here must be the blocking force reserved by the 88th Division to resist our attack. It's hard to say the number of people, but it must have gathered all the automatic weapons and ammunition of the 88th Division."”
