"It's over, our artillery is finished.”
When the 20th Division saw the Mustang fighter jets diving down to attack, they were all dumbfounded.
This was the first time they had encountered such an aerial attack.
The Mustang fighter jets dived down one after another.
After locking onto the target, he threw the 250-kilogram heavy bomb from the hanger.
The accuracy of the throw was not even high.
A 500-pound bomb would have more than 300 pounds of explosives.
When it exploded, one could imagine how powerful it was. Its killing range was enough to cover the size of a football field.
As the heavy bombs fell, the Japanese artillery positions became devastated.
A large number of cannons were successfully destroyed under the precise throwing.
What replaced the original emplacement were huge craters.
"Baka, Baka Yalu."
After seeing this scene, Fujita Shigeru's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
He immediately picked up a crooked machine gun and fired at the shuttling fleet in the sky.
It was as if he could shoot down these swaggering Mustangs.
His actions were targeted by a P51D Mustang fighter jet.
The pilot swooped down at a low angle and aimed at Fujita Shigeru, who was in the middle of firing.
In an instant, two rockets were fired from under the wings.
"Commander, be careful."
When the guards saw this scene, they immediately pounced on Fujita Shigeru.
However, it was already too late.
Two 57mm rockets whistled through the air and exploded.
Fujita Shigeru and the guards protecting him were blown to pieces.
Another major general of the Japanese army had fallen at Zhang Xueming's hands.
The death of regimental commander Shigeru Fujita also seemed to announce the end of the Japanese artillery.
All the large-caliber artillery of the Japanese army had been repeatedly bombarded.
Among them, 28 Mustang fighters were carrying two 250 kg heavy bombs.
The Japanese only had 47 heavy artillery.
The target was so big, and there was no anti-air firepower to interfere. It was simply too easy to blow it up.
Facing the bombardment of the artillery, the 20th division could only watch helplessly, unable to help at all.
Upon seeing this, Shichiro Ichiro immediately ordered,""Attack, attack immediately and break through their formation.”
The two Japanese exploration teams that were ready to attack split into two groups and charged at Tashan's position.
They did not encounter any artillery fire along the way, as if the other party did not notice them.
This strange scene caused Shichiro's heart to sink.
This was definitely abnormal.
This was actually normal. The establishment of the Joint Combat Command meant that the artillery of the two divisions would be integrated.
It was temporarily under the command of the Joint Artillery Combat Command.
These included the artillery units of the two divisions, the independent heavy artillery regiment, and two train cannons.
There was also the independent self-propelled rocket artillery battalion that joined in the early hours of the morning.
"Commander, the Air Force has cleared the Japanese artillery positions, and their offensive forces have all entered the artillery range.”
Yu Chen, who was in charge of the Combined Artillery Command, ordered decisively.
"Pass on my order. The rocket artillery battalion will be the first to attack, followed by the rest of the artillery units.”
The independent self-propelled rocket artillery battalion had three rocket artillery companies, equipped with a total of 27 OM-13 Katyusha rocket launchers.
Each Katyusha rocket launcher could carry 16 132mm rockets on its I-shaped rail.
The power of the 132mm rocket was very close to that of the 155mm artillery shell.
The rocket artillery battalion could fire 432 rockets at once.
Under such a dense firepower, as long as they were covered, there was basically no way they could escape.
Yu Chen let the Rocket Cannon Battalion attack first because he wanted to see how powerful the Rocket Cannon Battalion's collective firing was.
"Artillery in position, target the 39th Brigade of the Japanese Army.”
“3... 21, fire!"
After the order was given, the rocket launchers from the Rocket Cannon Battalion roared into the sky.
"Swoosh swoosh!"
In an instant, the rockets rained down like a mountain fire, forming a dense rain of rockets in the air.
"What's that?"
The 39th Brigade, who was busy attacking, was still glad that they had not been bombarded.
However, the white snow on the ground was suddenly illuminated red.
When they looked up, they saw a scene that they would never forget in their next life.
The dense rockets in the sky covered the sky and even half of the sky was red.
Their pupils were also red.
Although they didn't know what it was, it was definitely going to kill them.
However, the rocket did not give them any time to react.
As the dense rockets descended, more than half of the attacking forces were enveloped in the range.
In an instant, the explosion sounded like rolling thunder, resounding in all directions.
Dense explosions rose into the sky, and the ground turned into a sea of flames, as if it was about to tear the earth apart.
The Japanese army, shrouded in the rain of rockets, looked like the end of the world.
Such a dense explosion left them with nowhere to hide and nowhere to escape. They could only accept the cruel judgment of fate.
Most of the Japanese soldiers passed away peacefully from the powerful explosion without any pain.
It had only been a dozen seconds since the start of the bombardment.
These ten seconds felt like a century to the Japanese soldiers who were bombarded.
The smoke gradually dispersed, revealing a scene that was like hell on earth.
There were craters everywhere.
The corpses and broken limbs of the Japanese army were scattered everywhere, and the blood had dyed the ground a bloody red.
The 39th Brigade had lost nearly 3,000 soldiers in this round of bombardment.
This was equivalent to the strength of a regiment.
Seeing such a tragic scene, the Japanese soldiers, even if they had been brainwashed by the Bushido, were shocked.
At this moment, their spiritual world collapsed.
It was very appropriate to describe it as trembling in fear.
When the bombardment ended, it was as if the sky had suddenly turned silent.
Everyone in the 20th division headquarters had witnessed this scene from the beginning to the end.
Major General Shichida Ichiro was so shocked that his binoculars fell to the ground.
His eyes were filled with disbelief and shock.
Such a fierce bombardment could only be produced by hundreds of heavy cannons.
This caused a huge impact on everyone present.
And this was only the beginning.
The attack of the rocket artillery battalion was the signal for the joint artillery to fire.
