"Hurricane!"

"Hurricane, hurricane! ——”

The shells that flew out of the artillery position of the Tiger Battalion, with a shrill and piercing sound of breaking wind, smashed down one after another on the artillery position of the devil.

At that time, the devil artillery was still continuously firing at the positions of the defenders in Jiangbei, and one after another the shells had exploded suddenly, blowing up the entire devil artillery position to the ground, and the flames were everywhere, as if the world was coming.

When the shells landed, dozens of devil artillerymen had no time to dodge, and they were blown up on the spot. More devil artillery was wounded by broken shrapnel, and they screamed again and again for a while.

"Enemy artillery fire is coming, hide quickly, hide quickly! ——”

The surviving devil artillerymen screamed and dropped their positions, running as fast as they could towards the surrounding bomb craters and bunker fortifications.

Then, the second round of rapid fire from the Huben Battalion Artillery Company smashed down again.

As soon as the shells exploded, a big crater was created, and one by one the devil's field artillery and howitzers were blown up, and the barrels, gun carriages, and other parts were torn apart. Even some of the devil artillerymen who didn't have time to run far were affected one after another and were blown into the sky again.

Several rounds of rapid firing came down, and the entire devil artillery position was almost blown into a scorched earth, and the corpses of the devil artillery were everywhere, and their stumps and broken arms, blood flowed everywhere, staining the ground red.

Subsequently, the first and second platoons of artillery began to adjust the firing angles and extended the fire of the devil machine gun positions on the riverside.

"Okay, blow it up, blow up this group of bitches' Oriental crumbs!"

Yang Jing saw in the telescope that the devil's artillery position had become a sea of fire, and then his gaze moved to the surface of the river.

At this time, the third and fourth platoons of artillery were wantonly and indiscriminately bombing the devil's river-crossing troops. Without the threat of devil artillery, the soldiers of the machine gun group carried crane guns one after another, drilled out of the bunker, and continued to fire on the river.

"Hurricane, hurricane, hurricane! ——”

The cannonballs were wrapped in the screaming and piercing sound of the wind, and smashed down on the surface of the river, "boom, boom, boom", and after the shells exploded, they suddenly set off huge water columns and water waves.

The water waves are centered on the water column and quickly ripple in all directions, and the originally calm river surface suddenly becomes turbulent waves, turning the river and the sea.

In addition, at least a dozen wooden boats and rubber boats were shattered by the devastating blows of the shells, a pile of wood fragments floated on the water, and clusters of fireworks burned on the hull.

Some of the boats were overturned by the shock wave, and hundreds of ghost soldiers rolled from the boats into the river.

"Ya Butterfly! Help me, help me! ……”

The little devils struggled in the river, some were killed on the spot by shells, and some were stunned and drowned in the icy water.

"Baga Ya Road! Don't be afraid of battle, warriors of the Empire, keep attacking me, attack! Kill the chicken and give! ”

The devil commander waved the command knife in his hand and ordered the soldiers to continue crossing the river with all his might.

However, trying to force a river crossing in such a situation is no different from looking for death.

The troops crossing the river were hit by the defenders' artillery and heavy machine guns, suffering heavy casualties, and nearly half of the boats crossing the river were destroyed.

The entire Huangpu River is full of struggling devil heads. Hundreds of devil corpses drifted with the waves, and large swaths of red blood flowed into the river, as if it had become a red blood river.

Three miles away on the south bank of the Huangpu River, on a high ground, the commander of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, Toshio Tani, has been using a telescope to follow the battle of crossing the river.

When he saw that the troops crossing the river were beaten so badly by the defenders, he was so angry that his eyes erupted and he almost dropped the telescope in his hand.

And when he saw that even the artillery position deployed by the river was also wiped out by the Huben battalion, the old devil finally couldn't sit still.

"Yaga! What a cunning Chinese army, hateful, really hateful! ”

After Gu Shoufu roared, he ordered the chief of staff Shimono Kazuho on the side: "Shimono-kun, immediately order Sadao Oshima to reorganize an artillery position and carry out artillery countermeasures against the artillery position of the Jiangbei China Army!" ”

"Haya!"

Shimono Horton was the first to respond, and immediately led the order to leave.

Not long after, the commander of the 6th Wing of the Japanese Artillery, Sadao Oshima, followed the chief of staff, Kazuho Shimono, and ran over quickly.

Gu Shoufu's face sank, and he shouted: "Oshima-kun, why don't you quickly carry out the military order and come to me?" ”

Sadao Oshima said with a bitter face: "Your Excellency the division commander, it's not that you don't carry out military orders, it's really that this enemy army is extremely cunning, and they deploy artillery positions in hidden positions in the rear.

The lowly position cannot be pinpointed, so it is difficult to carry out your military orders.

Otherwise, if you shoot in a range of areas, even if all the shells carried by our troops are empty, you may not be able to destroy all the enemy's field artillery. ”

Gu Shoufu was unwilling to let go of the artillery of the Tiger Battalion, so he thought about it and continued: "Is there no other way? ”

Sadao Oshima said: "There is a way, but the lowly position requires the assistance of the meteorological team." ”

"Weather team?" Gu Shoufu's eyes lit up: "Yo Xi! Oshima-kun deserves to be the best artillery commander in the Empire. ”

The chief of staff next to him, Shimono Kazuho, also spoke: "With the meteorological team condescending to observe from the air, you can ignore the obstacles ahead and easily lock the exact location of the opponent's artillery position." ”

"Hmm!" Gu Shoufu nodded heavily in disapproval, and then said: "Shimono-kun, immediately order the weather team to release the sounding balloon to determine the exact location of the enemy's artillery position!" ”

"Haya!"

Shimono paused heavily, then turned around and walked away quickly.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, I have gone to redeploy the artillery position."

Sadao Oshima asked for instructions, and also turned around and walked away quickly.

The artillery position that had just been bombed by the Tiger Battalion had only deployed less than half of the field artillery of the 6th Artillery Wing of the Japanese Army, and the field artillery above the position had not been completely destroyed.

Therefore, the 6th Artillery Wing of the Japanese Army still retains a very strong artillery strength.

Gu Shoufu raised his binoculars again to observe the situation of the troops crossing the river.

It happened to be seen that several more ships were shelled by the enemy, and they were torn apart on the spot, and the imperial soldiers on board were killed or wounded, and fell into the water one after another.

"Eight Ga Ya Road!" Tani's facial muscles began to shake violently and twitched.

What he cared about was not the casualties, because even if all the more than 1,000 imperial troops of the troops crossing the river were shattered, it would not be enough for the 6th Division to break their muscles and bones.

What he really cared about was the loss of the ships, which were all he owned in the 6th Division.

Without boats, it would be much more difficult to cross the river.

In addition, the successive defeats also dealt a big blow to the morale of the imperial army, and even made him the laughing stock of his colleagues in the empire.

Therefore, no matter what, Gu Shoufu could not accept the defeat of the battle of crossing the river!
