Chapter 396: Heavy Rain
After an hour or two of brewing in the morning, the rain in the sky became heavier and heavier, and finally, the cool autumn rain slowly turned into a curtain of rain, and finally it became heavier and heavier, and the torrential rain began to pour.
There was a big hole in the roof, and the defenders on the roof wore raincoats to hold their positions in the rain, and the soldiers on the sixth floor were similarly treated, some of the soldiers who fell asleep were soaked in the rain and continued to sleep in a place where there was no rain.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and finally the majestic rain obstructed the view, and now the line of sight that can be seen is no more than 30 meters, which is still observed from a high place, and further on, it is a vast rain.
In the Japanese barracks, Ito Masaki hung up the phone, rubbed his temples, and waited all night, but there was still no good news from the front line, and it was not until early in the morning that he heard the news from the front line, and the attack failed again, and the Sixing warehouse still did not take down.
"Tonight, I am going to invite the ambassadors of various countries in Shanghai to a dinner, I hope this matter can be ended before this, I don't want to become a laughing stock at the banquet because of this incident!" Matsui Ishone gave this order to Masaki Ito.
"Tell everyone to come over for a meeting!"
Soon all the officers under the 101st Division rushed to Ito Masakaki, and the head of the 101st Wing, Sanbei, was almost stuffed into his crotch, his head lowered, and he did not dare to speak.
"I had a phone call with General Matsui Ishine just now, His Excellency the General will hold a celebration banquet today, and I want to invite the ambassadors of the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom, and His Excellency the General doesn't want to make a fool of himself at the celebration banquet, so he wants me to take down the Sixing Warehouse before the dinner starts tonight!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Sanbei, Sanbei immediately lowered his head and didn't dare to speak, yesterday their team sacrificed so much, they didn't take the Sixing warehouse, he knew that he needed to take full responsibility.
"Your Excellency General, the Chinese have begun broadcasting!"
Just when Ito Masaki was about to trouble the three soldiers, a soldier hurriedly walked into the tent, and Ito Masaki's face turned cold: "Broadcast? ”
"Yes!"
"Open me and listen!"
Soon the soldier adjusted the radio channel in Ito Masaaki's house, and Yu Zhiqian's voice came from inside.
“…… Citizens of Shanghai, Chinese compatriots, our 524th Regiment killed more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers and wounded countless people last night after a fierce battle last afternoon and a day and night, and captured 1,400 weapons and rifles, not counting bullets, and 36 light machine guns, including 57 Japanese officers and ...... Nakasa."
Ito Masaki listened, and the translator next to him translated the news to Ito Masaki with a nervous face.
After Ito Masaki heard the number, he pulled out his knife with some emotion and yelled: "Yaga! ”
Approaching the three guards with a quick step, after the three guards saw it, they knelt directly on the ground: "Your Excellency General, give me another chance, I must take the four lines of warehouses, otherwise I will judge myself to thank the emperor!" ”
Ito Masaki's knife was only less than ten centimeters away from Sanbei, and it stopped abruptly, and through the reflection of the lenses, you could see the killing intent in Ito Masaki's eyes, but it stopped abruptly.
Ito Masaki slowly lifted the saber in his hand, flipped it in the air, and then suddenly slashed, Sanbei's little finger was cut off, but Sanbei endured the pain and didn't dare to scream, still kneeling on the ground, letting the little finger flow blood.
"Originally, if you didn't take the Sixing Warehouse before dawn today, you should have committed suicide, but now I give you a chance to make up for it, I hope you cherish it yourself, if you don't break through the Sixing Warehouse before dark, my knife will be cut on your head!"
"Hayi!"
"Let's go down!"
"Hayi!"
After solving the soldiers of the three guards, Ito Masaki looked at the rest of the people: "You all have things to be busy with, don't think it's the business of the three guards alone, you have to be responsible for providing him with some support, the artillery wing, an hour before the three guards prepare to attack, give me constant bombardment, even if the four rows of warehouses are poured with iron, they will blow up a gap for me!" ”
"Hayi!"
After Ito Masakaki's order came down, the Japanese camp was busy again, and Sanbei covered his right hand, returned to the wing, quickly found a doctor to bandage his fingers, and gathered all the officers.
"General Ito cut off one of my little fingers, Commander Matsui Ishine is going to hold a celebration banquet tonight, Your Excellency the Commander doesn't want the Chinese troops in the Sixing Warehouse to be there before the dinner, I have already cut off a finger, if you can't take the Sixing Warehouse before sunset today, I think you should all know what to do!"
"Hayi!"
A group of officers stood up en masse, bowed, and immediately left.
In the midst of the torrential rain, the Japanese soldiers who had fought all night last night were resting, and the two captains looked at the tired soldiers and the pouring rain outside, and frowned: "Call them all up now?" ”
Ueno shook his head: "Let the soldiers rest for a while, let the people of the baggage wing take advantage of the heavy rain to build a position in front, let us get as close as possible to the Chinese army, and reduce the casualties caused by the charge!"
"Hello!"
Soon the baggage wing, which received the order to cooperate with the attacking force as much as possible, began to get busy, but now it was raining rain, and it was basically impossible to dig up the land and carry out civil engineering work, so the soldiers of the baggage force thought for a while and thought of a solution.
"Now the visible distance in the rain is only a few tens of meters, we can build a solid offensive forward position at a position of about 100 meters, in this way, we are only more than 100 meters away, in this way, we can attack at any time!"
After finishing speaking, he immediately took out a pen and paper and began to calculate quickly: "Here we will use sandbags to repair the offensive forward position about three meters high, which can be built with wooden planks and other things, blocking the shooting path from above the four rows of warehouses, leaving a tank passage in the middle, and then ...... like this"
"How long will it take to build this?"
"It's not very technical, you just need to have enough sandbags to build it quickly!"
"I'll report it right now and let someone from the regiment help!"
"Good!"
Soon Ito Masaki received the following report, but Ito Masaki really wanted to tear this report up casually, attacking a building with only a few hundred people to handle, and actually mobilizing a division of people to be busy, and it would be a shame to spread it.
But when I thought of paying such a big sacrifice yesterday, I didn't capture the Sixing Warehouse, and now as long as I can take the Sixing Warehouse, Ito Masaki can accept it.
What Ito Masaki had in front of him was the structural diagram of the Sixing Warehouse, and now Ito Masaki really wanted to find out the people who built this warehouse back then, and pointed a gun at his head to ask what this group of people were thinking, and how they would build such a fortress.
Soon with the consent of Ito Masakaki, the entire wing began to get busy, except for the artillery, and even the cavalry patted out their horses, carried sandbags on their backs, and transported them to the front.
The Japanese move very quickly, at this time Shanghai is not the Shanghai where there were cement roads everywhere before, except for some roads, most of them are muddy floors, and if you go down with a shovel, you will put it into a bag and it will be a sandbag.
And now it is raining heavily and the ground is muddy, although it makes it a little difficult to transport, but it also makes digging very easy, and the efficiency of more than 10,000 people is still very high.
Some Japanese soldiers began to act as a demolition brigade, removing all the building doors and windows around the Sixing warehouse, as long as they were related to wood, and then carrying these things to the front line quickly.
The Japanese built a position very quickly, that is, a simple bunker was piled up with three rows of sandbags, and then fixed with something, about a gap of about one meter in the middle, and another row was built in the middle, extending backwards, so that a forward position could be formed to attack the four rows of warehouses.
Yu Zhiqian looked at the time, two hours had passed, and the Japanese had not moved at all, which made Yu Zhiqian feel very strange.
"Sir, what's wrong!"
Xie Jinyuan saw that Yu Zhiqian seemed to be worried, and walked over and asked in a low voice, Yu Zhiqian stood at the window and looked at the pouring rain outside: "The Japanese haven't attacked for two hours, I feel that something is wrong, I don't know what conspiracy the Japanese are brewing again!" ”
"I also think it's strange, normal commanders, they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity, we fought all night, and now we are sleepy, they will definitely continue to attack, put pressure on us, and not give us any chance to rest!"
"And the Japanese are not only a few hundred, a few thousand, they only need a wing to drag us, and we can't bear it if we attack non-stop, not to mention that we have a division opposite us!"
The identity of the opposite side Yu Zhiqian and the others had already investigated clearly last night and asked in the mouth of the prisoner, the opposite side was the Japanese 101st Division, a division commander, would not make such a low-level mistake!
"Could there be some conspiracy!" Yu Zhiqian felt a little uneasy, this rain was too late, and he couldn't see what was going on at all, and the advanced equipment of himself and his subordinates had lost their effect.
"Send someone out to see?"
Yu Zhiqian nodded: "Let my people go, they are all professional!" ”
"Good!"
Xie Jinyuan did not fight, the ability of Yu Zhiqian's subordinates, he saw it clearly yesterday, he had never seen such a powerful soldier, he secretly calculated by himself, Yu Zhiqian and the others killed at least more devils than they were in a company, or even a lot more.
"Yan Qi, Mao Sanbai, the two of you are ready, go outside to see what the Japanese are doing, pay attention to safety, don't be discovered!"
"Roger!"
Yan Qi and Mao Sanbai, who received Yu Zhiqian's order, quickly stood up, changed into equipment, and quickly left the Sixing warehouse and disappeared into the rain curtain.
"Lao Yan, it's so cool to kill devils in the past two days!" After walking out, the two people clinged to each other, slowly moved forward, and left the warehouse, the surroundings became a little unsafe and needed to be guarded, but the heavy rain was also their protective clothing, and even if there were Japanese people around, they couldn't hear their footsteps, and now it was better than whose eyes were better.
"Out of the task, concentrate, we use modern weapons, of course it's cool to kill devils, if you use Zhongzheng and Sanba Dagai to fight devils, the devil's marksmanship is not bad!" After finishing speaking, he raised his left arm slightly, and this place was almost shot.
"I'll just talk about it!" After Mao Sanbai finished speaking, he gently kicked the corpse of the Japanese on the ground.
The rainstorm has a benefit, that is, the land around the Sixing warehouse has been cleaned, before because there were too many dead people, there was blood everywhere, walking around is stepping on the blood and moving forward, there is a smell of blood everywhere, now after a burst of rainstorm, the blood stains on the ground are gone, and there are many soldiers on the first floor who are receiving water to wash the ground on the first floor, otherwise the viscous blood walks, maybe it will slip.
"Well, there's someone up ahead!"
After the two of them advanced forward for dozens of meters, they vaguely saw the traces of people in the distance, Yan Qi immediately lay on the ground, Mao Sanbai followed behind, and the two of them lay motionless on the ground, and saw that in the rain curtain in front of them, several figures were faintly visible, patrolling.
"There's a problem!"
This was Yan Qi and Mao Sanbai's first thought, and after the two glanced at each other, they began to crawl forward slowly, wanting to see what was going on around them.
The movements of the two people were very slow, but also very light, slowly, little by little, moving forward, the distance was getting closer and closer, and the things that could be seen became clearer and clearer, and the figures seen before were indeed several Japanese soldiers on patrol, they were wearing raincoats and holding weapons, and they were slowly moving forward.
"The Japanese seem to be repairing something!" Mao Sanbai said in a low voice, Yan Qi nodded, he could see a dark shadow, and looked around: "You go to the left, I go to the right, and I find something to take a picture with my mobile phone!" ”
"Good!"
The two people slowly separated, Yan Qi lay on the ground and observed the traces of these patrolling Japanese soldiers, seized a gap, and got into one of the ruins, just entered, and saw two Japanese people sitting together, holding dry food in their hands as if they were ready to eat, these two people should be dark sentinels.
The Japanese soldiers didn't expect that the Chinese soldiers in the Sixing warehouse would dare to come out, they didn't take it too seriously, and when they heard the movement and saw Yan Qi, Yan Qi had already reacted, holding a pistol equipped with a message device in his hand and pointing it at the heads of the two people.
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
Two muffled gunshots rang out, and two Japanese soldiers had their heads knocked out of two holes and fell to the ground.
