Chapter 772: Stopping Japanese Reinforcements (4)

The sudden arrival of shells was a bit of a surprise to all Japanese troops.

The enemy did not expect at all that the security regiment still had heavy artillery with such a long range.

"General, it's not good, it's a large-caliber shell!!"

The devil officers and men on the warship heard the death screams of the shells, and they shouted in shock one by one.

The shells came so suddenly that the devils on the warship didn't have time to react at all.

"Beware of artillery fire, beware of artillery fire!!"

The Japanese soldiers on the deck of the warship shouted loudly.

Then, a violent explosion sounded on the water surface of the Yangtze River.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

More than a dozen flying shells bombarded the Devil warship intensively, and the flames of the explosion flickered in the dark night.

Most of the flying shells landed on the surface of the river, blowing up a huge wave of water, and the water splashed to a height of tens of meters.

The power of the 155-mm shell is extremely high, and it is not comparable to the 105-mm shell.

Several shells hit the warship's hull with precision, and the edge of the hull exploded and caught fire, and shards of steel and shrapnel from the exploded hull flew everywhere.

The deck of the Devil Warship also received two shells, and the shells smashed holes in the hard deck.

The devil soldiers around the deck were killed and wounded by shrapnel and steel fragments.

Dozens of devil navy soldiers were unguarded and fell to the ground in a hurry, blood spurting from all over their bodies.

"Uh, uh, uh......"

The lights on the devil's warship are lit, and the lights can be clearly seen from more than ten kilometers away by the naked eye, which undoubtedly provides an opportunity for the artillery units of the security regiment to accurately hit the target. 、

"Bagaya Road, why are the shells of the Chinese soldiers so accurate!!

Soon, the captain of the devil realizes that something is wrong.

"Hurry up, turn off the lights on the warship!!"

Several devil warships on the river immediately turned off their dazzling lights.

Then, several flares flew over, and the dazzling light masses shone several kilometers on the surface of the river.

The flares slowly descended from mid-air, and the light shone on several warships of the devils.

At this time, the cannons on the Nanshan position in the distance were still shelling.

Powerful cannonballs, wave after wave, slammed down on the devil warship.

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

"Boom, boom, boom......",

The sound of shell explosions continued to sound, and the flying shells exploded all over the devil warship.

The devil sailors on deck shouted in terror from the gunfire and scattered in search of cover to avoid the exploding shells.

In just a few moments, nearly a hundred devil soldiers died under artillery fire, and the corpses of the enemy fell on the deck, covered with bright red blood.

The main turret of a devil's frigate was accurately hit by several shells, and the originally solid turret was instantly destroyed by the shells and exploded into pieces of steel.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Several barrels of thick caliber were twisted and deformed, broken into several pieces, and the parts of the cannon exploded dozens of meters away.

More than a dozen gunners of the devil ship who operated the artillery, their flesh and blood were blown to pieces by the shells on the spot, and the bones and slag could not be found.

There was also a group of devil navy soldiers not far away, who were hit by the flying steel shards.

The splinters of steel that burst into pieces of steel had a great killing momentum, cutting the enemy's body into several pieces, turning them into mutilated corpses.

These unlucky little devils died miserably, some of the devils had their entire heads cut off, some only had half of their bloody bodies left, and some of the devils had their limbs cut off......

"Uhhhh!!h

The wounded devil navy soldier hugged the bleeding incision on his body and screamed miserably.

The devil's command flagship was also hit by a few shells, and the bow of the ship exploded into a hole, and the explosion flames flew to a height of seven or eight meters, and a group of devil soldiers were extinguishing the fire.

Tomoda Watanabe in the warship command room, as well as several devil naval officers, were stunned by the shells, and their ears were buzzing.

With the support of his subordinates, Tomota Watanabe stood up in embarrassment.

"Bagaya Road, damn the artillery of the security regiment !!"

Tomota Watanabe cursed a few words, then raised the binoculars and looked at the Nanshan position where the shells flew in the distance.

The Nanshan position is at least fifteen kilometers away from the warships, where did the security regiment get its long-range large-caliber artillery?

Of course, at this time, the situation was critical, and the shells were constantly coming, and Watanabe Tomota had no time to think about the problem of the security regiment's artillery.

He observed the direction of the artillery position for a while, and shouted loudly: "The number of artillery in the security regiment is not large, quickly order all warships to counterattack, and the enemy must pay the price!! ”

"Ha Yi !!"

The devil officers left one after another and hurried to carry out Watanabe's orders.

The 155-mm cannon of the Security Regiment is not inferior to the naval guns of the devils in terms of range and power.

However, the number of such powerful artillery of the security regiment was too small to completely suppress the fire of the Japanese naval guns.

There are at least dozens of large-caliber naval guns on several warships of the devils, so in terms of the number of firepower, the firepower of the security regiment is not as strong as the naval guns of the devils.

Soon, the gunners and artillerymen of the devil ships on each warship reacted, moved their gun barrels in the direction of the Nanshan position, and quickly launched a artillery counterattack.

"Tom, tom, tom......"

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

The guns of several devil warships launched an artillery bombardment together, and the sound of shelling on the river was deafening.

Naval guns of various calibers whistled out of the warship, and as soon as the shells were fired, the gunners of the devils continued to reload.

"The gunner quickly reloads, and the !! quickly reloads"

After a short flight, the rows of shells accurately hit the cannon position a few hundred meters away.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The devil's naval guns kept flying, carpet bombardment, explosions and flames.

The defense of the cannon position of the security regiment is also very strong, and the artillery position is established on the anticline of Nanshan, which is very concealed, and it is difficult for the devil's naval artillery fire to hit and cover the position.

The artillery of both sides engaged in an artillery battle within a range of more than 10 kilometers, and countless shells exploded back and forth between the two sides.

Although the naval artillery of the devil could not destroy the cannon position of the security regiment, the artillerymen hundreds of meters away were shocked by the naval guns.

Some of the artillerymen were physically unable to stand even on their feet, and as soon as they stood up, they were knocked to the ground by the huge kinetic energy of the explosion.

Not only that, but the cannon positions arranged on the positions had a considerable shift, which greatly affected the hit rate of the shell launch.

The warships on the river are moving, the targets are moving, and the artillery of the security regiment is even more difficult to hit the devil warships in this environment.

Most of the 155-millimeter shells fired deviated and landed in the river.
