Thinking of this, Yasumasa Fukushima rubbed his temples, and in any case, he finally had a clue so that he would not be as hopeless as he was at the beginning, so he could feel a little relieved.

Yasumasa Fukushima poured himself a glass of sake and looked at his pocket watch, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the camp was already silent, and most of the Japanese soldiers had fallen asleep.

At this moment, only to hear a loud "boom", the earth seemed to tremble, and Fukushima Yasumasa's hand shook, a glass of wine was simmered for most of it, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table were also shaken, and Fukushima Yasumasa was also startled, and hurriedly stood up from the chair, wanting to go out to see what was going on.

But before Fukushima Yasumasa walked to the door, he only heard two loud "booms", Fukushima Yasumasa suddenly stood unsteadily, and fell to the ground, but then the sound of explosions rang out one after another, and the huge impact force rushed open the door of Fukushima Yasumasa's residence.

By this time, Fukushima Yasumasa still didn't understand what was going on, and the Japanese garrison was shelled by enemy troops. But what Fukushima Yasumasa couldn't understand was how the enemy knew the location of his station.

In this era, the firing range of artillery is not a bottleneck, generally a 100 mm howitzer can reach a range of 15 to 20 kilometers, if it is a 150 mm caliber, or 200 mm caliber artillery, it can hit farther, 30, 40 kilometers is not a problem, it is completely possible to achieve a strike outside the line of sight, and the technology that limits the power of artillery is the accuracy of shooting, if you want to strike at the enemy at a long distance, unless the enemy's position occupies a huge area, there is no need to aim, otherwise you must first know the enemy's detailed location. In addition, someone has to observe the landing point of the shell to see if the shell hits the target, if it does not hit the target, then the artillery must be provided with corrective unit parameters, and this is related to another problem, how to transmit the corrective unit parameters back, in this era is usually transmitted in the flag language.

At present, the Japanese army is stationed about 15 kilometers away from the periphery of Dagukou, and there are several 100-millimeter guns in the Japanese army, which can hit Dagukou, but they do not know the location of the enemy's body, and no one can observe the landing point of the shells, so Fukushima Yasumasa did not shell Dagukou. However, Fukushima Yasumasa had placed a large number of sentinel positions on the periphery of the Japanese garrison, which would not allow the enemy to figure out the location of the Japanese garrison, let alone allow the enemy to observe the landing point of the artillery shells nearby. What's more, at this time when the black light is blinding, even if someone is lurking nearby, it is impossible to see the landing point of the shell, let alone transmit the positive parameters back.

Judging from the results of the enemy's artillery bombardment, all the landing points fell on the Japanese station, although the shelling was not intensive, but it was a continuous artillery shell falling without stopping, which also shows that the enemy is very clear about the position of the Japanese station, and has considerable confidence in the accuracy of its own artillery bombardment, and even reached the point where no one needs to observe at close range, and the correct parameters can be provided to ensure that the artillery hits the target. As far as Fukushima knows, there seems to be no country in the world that has reached this level of artillery, so how did the other side do it? Is it just luck?

However, now is not the time to study the opponent's artillery technology, the opponent's shells are still falling, although there are not many shells, but the power is very large, it is estimated that at least 150 mm caliber or more shells, and there may even be 300 mm caliber shells, and such a huge cannon is only available on warships.

The Japanese garrison is an ordinary village, most of the houses are wooden structures, or rammed earth brick walls, and most of the roofs are made of thatch, only a few large households are made of tiles, such houses are of course unable to withstand the impact of high-explosive bombs, as long as they are hit by shells, they are all blown to pieces, soil and sawdust thatched tiles are flying, many houses are on fire, and the Japanese soldiers in the houses have fled outside the houses.

But escaping from the house is not necessarily safer than the house, because the shells do not have eyes, and it is possible to fall anywhere, once they fall into the crowd, within a radius of 30 meters, absolutely no one can be spared, so the Japanese soldiers were also killed and wounded countless times, and the other Japanese soldiers were like headless flies, scurrying around the station.

At this time, Fukushima Yasumasa was also a little at a loss, although he had the rank of major general, but after all, he had no actual combat experience, and he didn't know how to deal with such a situation.

―――――――― Divider ――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

The shelling of the Japanese camp had already been photographed by a high-altitude reconnaissance drone and transmitted to the Kunming ship in real time.

Before the battle began, Xia Bohai, Qin Zheng, and Xiao Jianjun boarded the Kunming ship and commanded the Kunming ship, because the Kunming ship has advanced equipment and a high degree of informatization, which is more suitable as a combat command center on the spot.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, the Kunming, which was anchored at the mouth of the Haihe River, took the lead in shelling the Japanese garrison with its 130-mm guns at the bow at a rate of 10 rounds per minute, while the Xiangyang and Huaihua warships, which were still moored at the wharf, also used their twin 100-mm naval guns to strike at the Japanese garrison at a rate of 6 rounds per minute with a single gun.

Although the five naval guns are bombarded with their lowest rate of fire, but in this era, they can already be regarded as rapid-fire guns, the fine preparation of modern artillery is not comparable to this era, there are UAVs to provide shooting parameters, the landing points of the shells are very accurate, all of them fell into the Japanese station, so it only took two minutes, a total of 68 shells fell, and the power of the high-explosive shells of modern technology is far more than the same caliber shells of this era, 68 shells, although not enough to destroy the entire Japanese garrison, but also gave the Japanese army a heavy blow。

Looking at the video transmitted by the drone, the trio were very satisfied with the results of the shelling, Xia Bohai said: "The results of the shelling are good, is it possible to dispatch the marines now." ”

Xiao Jianjun pondered for a moment and said: "The Kunming warship can stop shelling, pay close attention to the situation on the surface of the Haihe River, and notify the headquarters immediately as soon as it discovers that the Japanese troops on the north bank have crossed the river; the Xiangyang and Huaihua warships continue to carry out shelling at the current rate of fire for another two minutes; and the marines and amphibious armored battalions can attack." ”

It turned out that Xiao Jianjun had calculated very clearly, and it would take at least two or three minutes from the Marine Corps and amphibious armored battalion to the outer defense line of the Japanese garrison, so he let the Xiangyang and Huaihua ships continue to shell in order to maintain an uninterrupted attack on the Japanese army, so that the Japanese army did not have time to rearrange.

At this time, the Marine Corps commanders Qiu Yahui and Qin Yuhai, who were lurking in the position, were already waiting a little anxiously, and after receiving the order from the headquarters, they immediately ordered the troops to attack, first of all, eleven Type 05 amphibious tanks were deployed in a line, and each tank was about 150 meters apart, and then eleven Type 05 amphibious assault fighting vehicles, separated by about 50 meters, and kept between the two tanks, and then the soldiers of the Marine Corps, divided into platoons, followed by tanks and assault vehicles.

The whole line spread horizontally for a distance of nearly two kilometers, at first in a line, but in the process of the breakthrough, the two flanks gradually advanced and formed an arc, semi-encircling the Japanese garrison.

About two or three minutes later, the assault troops had advanced to about 3,000 meters away from the Japanese garrison, and had already entered the range of the artillery of tanks and assault vehicles.

However, the cause of such a momentum is not the Type 05 amphibious tank, but the Type 05 amphibious assault tank, because the assault tank is equipped with a 30 mm caliber machine gun, although the caliber is not large, but it is better than the rate of fire is extremely fast, the maximum rate of fire can reach 1000 rounds per minute, although each assault tank only uses the lowest rate of fire, but it also reaches 200 rounds per minute, such a rate of fire, naturally it is like a rain of bullets. Moreover, tanks and assault vehicles have night vision sighting devices, so they can still maintain the accuracy of shooting.

Because it was in the dark of night, the Japanese army did not know what kind of weapons the enemy was using, but they felt that the enemy's firepower suddenly became dense, and the grenades with a large arc were replaced by flat-firing Cannon shells, and the power of the shell explosion was much smaller. There were also some Japanese soldiers who could see the flickering fires from time to time in the darkness in the distance.

If the army was still organized at this time, even if it was attacked by the enemy, it would be possible to reorganize the battle, and if it was really impossible, it would have charged the other side and engaged in a close-range white-knuckle battle, but it had been hit by heavy artillery before, and now the Japanese troops in the garrison had been completely confused, and many soldiers woke up in their sleep, and they didn't even have time to put on their clothes, and ran out of the house shirtless, where the battle could still be fought. And the main general Fukushima Yasumasa was completely powerless to control the situation at this time, hiding behind a low wall, not knowing what to do.

In fact, the entire battle lasted less than ten minutes. Tanks and assault fighting vehicles were firing and advancing at the same time, and they had already attacked a place only more than 2,000 meters away from the Japanese garrison, which was also the limited distance set by the headquarters for the armored troops, because if they advanced further, the tanks and assault fighting vehicles might be exposed. Although the armored battalion was participating in the battle for the first time, the battalion commander still kept a clear head, and when he saw that the distance was almost there, he hurriedly notified the vehicles, stopped advancing, and fired in the same place.

The tanks and assault tanks that received the order all stopped and fired in place, while the marines caught up from behind, passed the tanks and assault tanks, and rushed towards the Japanese garrison.
