Those veterans, when they used to fight in China, although they had also seen artillery, many of them were just some small-caliber guns of 70 and 75.

At most, a few cannons were fired, hitting pillboxes and towers, where have they ever experienced being smashed alive by such overwhelming large-caliber shells, these heavy artillery and howitzers of 150 or even more can blow up the ground into a big hole like a small pond with one shot.

It was so brutal and so devastating that the will to resist was turned over and over again, like ploughing a field, and ploughed several times, and not an inch of soil was good, and some of the victims were blown to pieces and mixed with the dirt, and they couldn't be found.

This cannon is really unbearable, and you. Mother. Yes, I didn't even see a single devil, and I was killed by a cannonball falling from the sky, thanks to how much I complained.

Sometimes, everyone is not afraid of death, to put it bluntly, they will not stay in the barracks if they are afraid of death, especially in the barracks during the war years, and there are still more industries outside the barracks.

In fact, everyone would rather go to the battlefield to face to face with the devil soldiers, and if they sacrifice like that, they have nothing to say, but just this cannon, without giving you the opportunity to face the devil, they will kill you, and I really can't swallow this mouthful.

What's more, what's even more frightening is that the impact point of this shell is completely random, and no matter how experienced a veteran is, at most he will jump into the crater that has been blown up, and according to probability, the probability of two shells landing on a point at the same time is very small.

However, there are still many craters that have fallen on the shells that come from behind, which makes people uncomfortable, and there is a sense of powerlessness that is powerless and resigned to fate.

It doesn't matter if you're a jerky recruit or a capable veteran, as long as you get hit by a cannonball, the result is the same, no difference, if you don't die, you will be disabled.

Your veteran has been on the battlefield for several years or even more than ten years, and has developed the ability to save his life, and he doesn't need half of it here, this is too desperate.

Therefore, no one will laugh at this recruit who is blown up crazy, that person is so scared that he pulls in his crotch, and even many veterans are so scared that they pee on their crotch.

After the shelling, Sangou found that his crotch was also wet, but he didn't know if he was scared to pee or sweating, because he couldn't feel peeing his pants when he was overly nervous.

This, there's nothing funny, it's normal, those who don't hurt to stand and talk, you can go to the battlefield to experience it, and you are guaranteed to be a bear bag like a bear.

……

Only one 4 platoon of more than 30 people, was killed by the Japanese artillery, 8 people were killed, nearly a quarter of the casualty rate, 7 companies and several other platoons, also about this loss.

The other 8th and 9th companies of the 3rd Battalion heard that the casualty rate was even higher, and the 9th Company was almost killed by a third, with a casualty rate of more than 30%, and this was still the case that not even a single Japanese hair was seen.

Hu Hao, the commander of the third battalion, is also a battalion commander who has just been promoted, and although he made a lot of meritorious contributions in the night attack on the enemy camp last night, he could not withstand such a quick casualty this morning.

At this time, I happened to meet the three dogs pulling the bull and coming to dig the tunnel position again, so Lao Hu agreed to come down, because the above also issued a death order to defend this place.

An officer of Lao Hu's level naturally knows how important Luodian is to the national army and all the national troops on the entire Shanghai battlefield.

Luodian is an important stronghold on the way back of the national army, once Luodian is lost, the next is Jiading, Anting, Qingpu, Songjiang and other areas occupied by the Japanese army.

The front-line national army on the entire Shanghai battlefield will be dumplings by the Japanese army, and the next step will be to wait for the Japanese army to divide and slaughter the collapsed national army.

Next, the Japanese army can divide its troops into multiple routes, all the way from Songjiang to Jiaxing, directly take Hangzhou, all the way through Anting to Kunshan, attack Wuxian (Suzhou), and the warships of the waterway go up the Yangtze River to attack the Jiangyin fortress.

Once these are all allowed to be captured by the Japanese army, the consequences will be unimaginable, because Nanjing is not far from these places, and the Japanese army will definitely attack Nanjing, the capital of China.

I'll go, this is the danger of losing the country, Lao Hu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore, so let's go back and think more about the current situation.

Don't be too pessimistic, as long as you fight the battle of the Shanghai battlefield, you will be fine, small Japan does not have that much ability; China is no longer a symbol of weakness, especially in the past decade.

But this pit tactic, Lao Hu has not been exposed to before, and he has only heard Sangou say it so mysteriously, and it is not clear where the real effect is.

Moreover, according to Sangou, it is better for this tunnel to have a mountain, and on this plain not far from the sea, it is only a little higher than the sea level, and even if the trenches are dug a little deeper, water will come out.

It's no wonder that the trenches of the Japanese army are dug more than one meter deep, and they will no longer dig down, otherwise, the trenches will become ditches, and people will soak in them, and they can't stand it.

The trenches have to be dug more than one meter deep, and the underground tunnels you said three dogs are not allowed to be flooded into underground rivers, how can people live underneath?

However, seeing that there is a small hill bag behind the 7th Company, it's okay, just let the 7th Company dig it first, if the effect is good, if the problem of a large amount of water seepage underground is solved, the whole battalion will immediately promote the defensive tactics of the three dogs.

Although Lao Hu had a conservative attitude, the strength of his support was still real, and he invited an engineer platoon from the regiment headquarters to the three dogs and brought enough tools.

In addition, the prestige of the 51st Division spread far and wide in Shanghai, and the citizens and ordinary people of Shanghai sent a lot of condolences to them. When I heard that there was a need for tools and timber to repair the fortifications on the battlefield, I brought several large trucks in a row.

There are even rare building materials such as steel bones and cement, in fact, when the Songhu War started, millions of patriotic people in Shanghai continued to send fortification materials over.

I also sent biscuits and dry food to eat, because many national soldiers couldn't open the pot, not because there was no food, but because they didn't dare to open the pot to cook on the fire.

Why, it wasn't the Japanese army that closely monitored the national army all day long, as long as there was the slightest big movement on the position, there would be planes and artillery beckoning.

Even the fire and cooking are also beaten, and the smoke of this fire is just a standard positioning for the Japanese aircraft artillery.

I was so angry that the cooking crew scolded my mother, as for it, isn't it just cooking, are you guilty of using aircraft artillery to make a pot of rice? But people don't care if you cook or what you do, as long as you have a goal, you will bomb it.

This, naturally you can't cook during the day, and at night, you can't have the slightest spark, isn't this looking for death, in the dark, if there is a little fire, wouldn't it tell the world that there are people here.

Therefore, many soldiers of the national army have no food to eat, so they can only eat dry food with white water, so the citizens of Shanghai know this, so they send a lot of biscuits, steamed buns, dry food, etc.
