After a round of mortar bombardment, the Japanese 1st Squadron instantly lost hundreds of people.
Most of them were not killed by the shells, but were injured by the shells.
On the battlefield, the wounded were more valuable than the dead, because every wounded person would bring one or two Japanese to take care of him.
Captain Takenaka was furious and immediately ordered the 2nd Squadron and the Cannon Squadron to reinforce the 1st Squadron. They had to send the 1st Squadron to a safe area at all costs.
Although the mortar shells were powerful, they had a blind spot. The city was their blind spot.
As long as they reached the city walls, the place closest to the cannons would be a safe zone.
The Japanese army was aware of this and rushed to the blind spot recklessly.
Lin Feng wasn't surprised by the Japanese army's performance at all. On the contrary, he felt that it was getting more and more interesting.
Faced with the fierce bombardment, the Jinsui Army's reaction was to cover their heads and flee like rats. The entire army instantly fell into disarray.
However, the Japanese did not panic at all. The higher-ups calmly gave orders and then passed them on to the soldiers one by one. They were very well-trained.
On the city wall, Lin Feng had a panoramic view of the first movement of the devils.
The three squads that the Japanese had split into suddenly dispersed, forming a large group.
Lin Feng, who had a comprehensive collection of ancient and modern tactics, instantly couldn't see through the intentions of the devil.
The Japanese's purpose was obvious. They wanted to disperse the people and reduce the lethality of the shells.
If they were to gather together like before, a single shell would definitely cause a large number of casualties.
Lin Feng sneered. The Japanese army's military quality was indeed not bad. No wonder they could easily defeat a division of the Central Army or the Jinsui Army.
Unfortunately, their enemy this time was the Wild Wolf Pack!
The tactics of the Japanese army were very effective. After spreading out to attack, the casualties were indeed greatly reduced.
However, just as the Japanese army was glad that they were about to enter the safe zone.
Suddenly, an even more ear-piercing whistling sound came from the city.
105mm howitzers flew out of the city and smashed into the charging Japanese troops.
"Ya Xuan Die…"
"Boom boom…"
The power of the howitzer was huge. When it hit the ground, it instantly stirred up waves of sand and stones. The huge shock wave blasted all the Japanese within a 30-meter radius into the sky.
The unlucky Japanese were blown to pieces on the spot, and the sharp shrapnel cut off more than half of their heads.
Before the devils who were about to reach the city could rejoice, they were blown into pieces and screamed continuously.
"Swoosh swoosh…"
Before the Japanese could react, a new round of bombing began.
The shell seemed to have eyes and took good care of all the Japanese that were not taken care of by the shell just now.
In less than a minute, the three rounds of bombing were over. All the devils at the front were blown to pieces.
At the same time, Company Leader Takenaka, who had been commanding from the rear, was so shocked that his jaw almost fell to the ground.
At this moment, it was more shocked than angry. It grabbed the officer beside it and said,"Am I seeing things? Is this a 105mm howitzer? No, this was impossible. How could a Chinese captive have a 105mm howitzer?”
The officer who was grabbed was also shocked.""Captain, you are not mistaken. These are indeed howitzers, and there are at least twenty of them…"
"Baka!" Company Leader Takenaka shouted in disbelief,""Even a division of the Imperial Army only has ten 105mm howitzers. How could a group of prisoners of war who escaped from a prison camp have so many howitzers?”
"This is a trap, this must be a trap!”Company Leader Takenaka pushed the officer away and stared at Wenshui County.""There might be a large group of Chinese people hiding in the city, waiting for our imperial army to come.”
Captain Takenaka raised his binoculars again and saw that more than half of the three squadrons he had sent out had been killed.
No matter how strong the troops were, they would only be beaten up by the 105mm howitzers.
A 105mm caliber howitzer was the nightmare of the infantry!
Although Company Leader Takenaka was furious, he quickly calmed himself down and calmly analyzed the situation. He suddenly discovered a major problem.
The artillery fire in the city was indeed fierce, but after so long, not a single infantryman came out of the city.
There was only one possibility. There was almost no infantry in the city, or the number of infantry was very small.
The corners of Company Leader Takenaka's mouth curled into a cold smile.""Cunning Chinese, are you trying to imitate your ancestors and use the empty city tactic against the Imperial Army of the Great Japan Empire?”
"Chinese captives, you've killed so many of my elite soldiers, you've successfully angered me. Such a good cannon will soon be mine.”
"Pass on my order. Artillery, cover the infantrymen's charge. No one is allowed to retreat. Charge forward and kill all the Chinese people in the city!”
Soon, the remaining two infantry squadrons of the Takenaka Brigade carried their 38th Battalion and charged towards Wenshui County while shouting loudly.
All the Japanese officers followed at the back of the team. If anyone dared to take a step back, they would be shot immediately.
At the same time, the artillery squadron immediately set up all the mountain cannons and mortars and bombarded Wenshui County.
Natasha saw the Japanese army set up mountain cannons and immediately stood in front of Lin Feng.""General, the city walls are in danger. You can't stay here.”
Lin Feng shook his head. The corners of his mouth curled up." The Japanese finally took the bait. The climax of the war is coming up next. Slaughtering the Japanese is such a good show. How can I not personally witness it?”
