After the first round of artillery fire was corrected, the second round of artillery fire flew over again, and the clear sound of artillery fire could be heard in the sky.
Although the Japanese soldiers at the entrance of the town were already lying on the ground, they could not help but feel their scalps go numb when they heard the sound of the rapidly approaching artillery shells.
The cannonball landed quickly and exploded in an instant. The smoke from the explosion swept up more than ten meters high. The huge shock wave and waves tore the twenty Japanese around the explosion into pieces.
The damage of a large caliber howitzer was not only caused by the shrapnel that flew in the instant of the explosion, but also the terrifying lethality of the explosion itself.
The absolute killing radius was more than 50 meters, and the shrapnel had a killing radius of more than 100 meters. Especially within the absolute killing radius, even if one was not hit by the shrapnel, the shock wave of the explosion was enough to tear apart the fragile human body.
Even if one's abdomen was far away from the ground, the effect would be the same unless there was a trench to hide.
The waves that spread out could even topple people from two hundred meters away.
Moreover, this was a shell from World War II. If it was a 155mm howitzer from the 21st century, more than half of the town would be affected by the explosion.
When the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the Japanese soldiers at the town entrance were not only killed by the explosion, but also dozens of injured soldiers.
There were only a few dozen Japanese who survived. One round of bombardment caused dozens of casualties among these unavoidable Japanese. More than half of the 180 Japanese in a squadron were killed or injured.
"Your Majesty, please board!"
One of the surviving Japanese lieutenant suddenly waved his katana and shouted hysterically. He then stood up and rushed towards the dam.
"Board!" The rest of the Japanese also shouted and rushed out.
Between the dam and the town were paddy fields. The second season of rice had already been harvested, and now it was empty and barren.
Facing the Japanese who were charging at them, Ye Qing immediately stopped the bombardment. He Chenguang and Ye Qing each controlled an M2 Browning heavy machine gun. The 12.7mm heavy machine gun bullets flew towards the Japanese.
The powerful 12.7mm heavy machine gun bullets could easily tear through bodies. The paddy fields outside the town were covered with broken limbs. There were still some Japanese who were still alive, screaming and wailing for a long time.
In the small town, when the people who were fleeing saw that all the Japanese had fallen and many of them were still alive, they picked up all kinds of farming tools, hoes, hatchets, and long sticks and rushed out, smashing the injured Japanese into meat paste.
However, soon, the sound of crying came from the town again.
"Traveler, aren't you going down?" He Chenguang looked at the motionless Ye Qing and asked.
"No, they don't want our comfort. They want us to kill more Japanese.”Ye Qing shook his head and turned to leave.
……
In the 6th division command post, Gu Shoufu gritted his teeth and put down his binoculars. In the first round of attack, an infantry squadron that had invaded the north bank had been turned into corpses by the 67th division's suicidal counterattack.
Even though this squadron's attack had killed more enemies, Gu Shoufu was not happy at all.
If it wasn't for the fact that the firepower of the artillery had been severely reduced, there would have been sufficient artillery fire to cover the attack on the north bank of Huangpu River, and there wouldn't have been a need for more soldiers to sacrifice their lives.
This was already the fourth infantry squadron that had been deployed in today's attack. Looking at the corpses on the other side of the river and the river that was almost dyed red with blood, Gu Shoufu felt particularly depressed.
The national army on the Songhu battlefield was generally an elite force. It was not only the Japanese who were not afraid of death. There were also many soldiers in the national army who dared to die.
After half a day of fighting, both sides had more than 2,000 casualties, and corpses were everywhere on the riverside.
Although Gu Shoufu didn't want to use his soldiers to fight the national army, he didn't have a better choice.
Two aircraft carriers were inexplicably blown to pieces in Hangzhou Bay. Until now, no one knew who the murderer was or how he did it.
This resulted in the lack of artillery support and the lack of naval air support. For Shoufu Tani, there was no worse time than this.
Just as Gu Shoufu was about to give the order to attack again, a staff officer from the communication room quickly walked in and fiddled with the radio. He reported,"Regiment Commander, please listen to this broadcast.”
After the communications staff officer finished speaking, he adjusted the radio channel. The radio immediately sounded in Chinese."In the face of the brutal butcher's knife of the Japanese invaders, our soldiers are still fighting bloody battles beside the enemy. The special combat brigade directly under the Ministry of National Defense is like a sharp knife, stabbing into the enemy's body. Into the heart of the Japanese.
According to the Ministry of National Defense, since the Japanese invaders landed at Jinshan Guard yesterday, the heroic national army special forces killed hundreds of enemies at Jinshan Guard. Last night, they launched a night attack on the Japanese Sixth Division, which was preparing to attack Song Jiang. They blew up the arsenal of the Sixth Division, causing heavy losses to the Sixth Division.
And this morning, under the personal leadership of the Special Combat Brigade Major General Ye Qing, they successfully destroyed the artillery position of the Sixth Division and attacked two Japanese aircraft carriers in Hangzhou Bay, successfully blowing up two Japanese aircraft carriers of the 10,000-ton class…
The butcher's knife of the Japanese invaders will never scare the tenacious Chinese people…"
Hearing this, Gu Shoufu angrily turned off the radio, his face as dark as water.
