Chapter 749: Bombarding the Devil Warship (3)
The Devil Warship, which was hit by a bomb, was badly damaged, and its chimney and bridge collapsed on the deck.
There were countless dead and wounded devil soldiers, and strands of blood flowed into the river.
The fire grew bigger and bigger, and soon spread to all parts of the cabin, and some of the unlucky little devils had their bodies burned with their skin and flesh.
The devil navy soldiers on the deck hid everywhere, some were strafed by airborne machine gun bullets, and some were killed by aerial bombs.
"Dive, run!!"
A large group of devil navy soldiers ran out of the hatches everywhere shouting, and they jumped into the river without hesitation holding a lifebuoy.
When the pilots of the security regiment saw that the little devil was forced to jump into the river, they immediately greeted him with machine gun bullets and aerial bombs.
"Hurricane, hurricane, hurricane......"
"Da Da Da, Tu Tu ......"
Countless bullets hit the surface of the river, and many aerial bombs fell to the bottom of the river.
The little devil navy soldiers, although they all know how to be watery, they still can't escape death.
Bullets splattered across the water, making a series of splashes.
"Ahh......h
The little devil in the river screamed again and again when he was hit by bullets, and the terrible screams were endless.
The little devils who were lucky enough to escape under the gun, like a group of wild ducks that were frightened and fled in the water, the enemy scattered and fled, desperately swimming in the river water.
Soon, the bombs exploded one after another in the water.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
Muffled explosions, one after another.
The bomb exploded in the water, but the power was still very huge.
On the originally calm surface of the river, the waves suddenly became turbulent, as if a huge tsunami had occurred, and a huge column of water more than ten meters high was splashed up.
The little devil who was close to the bomb explosion site didn't even have a chance to scream, and his body was suddenly torn apart.
The little devils within a few tens of meters of the explosion point were not spared.
The strong impact broke the water surface, and the water waves were swept to a height of more than ten meters by the huge explosion kinetic energy, and the nearby devil navy soldiers were swept into the air by the impact.
"Uh, uh, uh......"
The bodies of the devil navy soldiers were torn apart, and bloody stumps and severed arms were splashed on the surface of the river.
Devil Navy soldiers, dead and wounded, a large number of devil corpses appeared on the water, the clear river was stained red with blood, and there was scarlet blood everywhere.
The death of the devil navy soldier was very tragic, and there were few complete corpses on the river.
This group of invincible devil navy once killed and injured many Chinese civilians with naval guns in the naval battle of Songhu, and today they also tasted defeat and paid the price of blood.
The devil's warship was blown up beyond recognition by the bombs, and it didn't take long for the river to pour into the cabin of the warship.
Gradually, the devil's warship turned sideways and slowly sank to the bottom of the river.
The remaining two devil warships were also bombarded by aerial bombs, but the damage to the devil warships was not serious.
Soon, the devil navy on other warships desperately launched a counterattack.
"Bagaya Road, attack quickly, and kill the Chinese fighters!!"
The devil officers and men on the warship roared loudly, and they savagely gritted their teeth and attacked the group of planes in the air with anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.
"Da Da Da, Tu Tu !!"
"Da Da Da, Tu Tu !!"
"Tom, tom, tom!!"
The sound of artillery shelling and gunfire continued, and the warships were engaged with the planes of the security regiment in the air, and the firing line flew back and forth.
The two sides fought fiercely, and even though the bombers were covered by fighters, the pilots still did not dare to lower their flight altitude to attack the devil warship.
Although the devil's anti-aircraft firepower is not powerful enough and the accuracy is insufficient, the firepower network is very dense and still poses a great threat to the aircraft group.
Of course, Li Hong's real weapon is not airplanes.
The planes and pilots of the security regiment are precious, and he will not let his subordinates risk fighting the little devil warship.
Li Hong held up the binoculars and clearly saw the devil warships and fighters in the distance fighting fiercely.
At this time, the warship of the devil was too busy to sail out of this water, so it was a good opportunity to strike.
Immediately, he shouted for the signal corps.
"Signal soldier, immediately give an order to the cannon company and use artillery to blow up the warship of the devil!"
"Yes, Tuanza!"
The signal corps received Li Hong's instructions and gave the cannon company an artillery bombardment order without hesitation.
On the hillside not far away, the cannon company of the security regiment had long been aimed at the devil warships on the river.
As soon as the cannon company received Li Hong's order, it immediately launched a long-range artillery bombardment.
"Cannon !!"
"Cannon !!"
Five 155-mm cannons simultaneously shelled Japanese warships on the river in the distance.
"Tom, tom, tom!!"
"Tom, tom, tom!!"
With such a cannon of such a large caliber, the sound of shelling was like rolling thunder, and the ground trembled.
The Schneider 155mm cannon is one of the most outstanding long-range guns in World War II, with great penetration and power, and the firing range can reach more than 25 kilometers, far exceeding the naval guns of the Devil Navy.
Large-caliber shells flew out of the hillside, and soon, the shells fell near the Devil warship.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
A resounding muffled explosion sounded on the river.
With such a large-caliber cannon, the killing radius can reach more than 200 meters, and the destructive power is even more terrifying.
Several shells were fired off the railroad and smashed into the river, immediately blowing up columns of water tens of meters high.
The cannon position is about 15 kilometers away from the Devil Warship, although the Devil Warship is within the effective range, but it is not so easy to hit the target easily at such a distance.
The cannonballs smashed on the water, and the scene was like overturning the river and the sea, and the devil warship next to it was slightly shaken by the shock wave.
Among them, two shells hit the bow position of a Devil warship.
The hull of the bow of the ship was directly pierced by the shell, blowing up a crater several meters wide.
The defense capability of the devil's warship is very strong, and ordinary artillery does not work at all, but the power of the cannon armor-piercing shell blows through the devil's warship, which is simply a breeze.
Of course, the devil warship was not sunk so easily, and the first wave of shells was just a test shell, and it did not hit the vital point of the devil warship.
"Yaga, where did the artillery attack come from???!!!"
The devil commander on the warship was dizzy, and he hurriedly held a telescope to observe the direction of the shelling.
The naval commander of the devils looked at the blasted steel armor and quickly realized that something was wrong, their warship had never been attacked by such a terrible shell.
According to the intelligence information of the devil, the best land artillery of the Chinese army is the 150 mm German-made howitzer.
The shells just now, judging by the power and caliber of the explosion produced, are definitely not comparable to 150-mm howitzers.
