It has been two days, and the Japanese army has not been able to capture Beiluo, which makes Major General Seya, the commander of the 33rd Brigade of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, very dissatisfied with the commander of the 63rd Wing, Fukuei Daisa.

The Segu Detachment, with the 33rd Brigade as the backbone, in order to seize the lead in Xuzhou, went deep alone, and wanted a quick victory, but it could not afford to play a protracted war, and the pressure on the supply line was too great.

As a mechanized unit, they consume a lot of war materials, especially fuel for tanks and automobiles, as well as shells for aircraft and artillery, and the daily consumption is huge, which makes the transport wing of the division and regiment headquarters miserable.

Most of the supplies were transported from Jinan, Shandong, through the northern section of the Jinpu line, all the way to Zou County, and after Teng County was beaten down a few days ago, the railway was quickly repaired, and the ammunition materials in wagons could be transported to Teng County.

Now it is transported to Lincheng, and then transferred to Zaozhuang, Yixian, and then to Beiluo, but this line not only has to be transferred, but there are also a large number of Chinese troops waiting for an opportunity to attack along the way, which has destroyed the railway line, and the materials are often transported intermittently.

Later, he did not transfer cars in Lincheng, and went directly south to Hanzhuang, where he used a car to transport it to Beiluo in the east, which was faster, but he still had to risk being attacked by the Chinese army along the way.

The Japanese army was in the north of Beiluo, in the mud ditch, modified several compounds, made a few warehouses, anyway, if it could be transported, it was transported to many miles, and if it was not used up, it was stored in the warehouse ammunition depot.

In this way, the problem of ammunition and supplies can be temporarily solved, but the Japanese army does not want to stay in this small place of Beiluo for too long, and the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for them.

Because from the reconnaissance of the plane, the Chinese army this time is not a simple passive defense, the surrounding troops are frequently moved, and large troops are gathered around Xuzhou, and there is a great idea of competing with the Japanese army.

The original three-way Japanese army attacked Xuzhou from the north and south, and the other two roads were blocked and could not move, and now only one unit of the Seya detachment (about 20,000 people) was left to penetrate alone, and Major General Seya was well aware of the risks.

However, there is an old saying in China: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger's son", and he Seya knew that the tiger in the mountains was biased towards the tiger mountain, in addition to the huge military feats that drove him, and the super strength of the Japanese army's mechanized troops, which brought him enough self-confidence.

On the morning of March 23, Major General Seya personally came to the side of the 63rd Wing to supervise the army, and it was bound to take Beiluo on this day, otherwise, everyone would not be allowed to rest, and they would work overtime all night at night and continue to fight.

The brigade commander personally commanded, and it was obviously different, the Japanese army's war resources were tilted a lot at once, and Lao Qin and the others obviously felt that the shelling of the devils this morning was much stronger than before.

Almost all of them are 150 howitzer heavy guns, this kind of double-sound cannon, one warhead has dozens of kilograms, the fuse is at the front of the warhead, and most of them are time-delay fuses.

That is, similar to the current ground-penetrating bomb, dozens of kilograms of artillery shells, flying over several miles, can be hit into the ground to a depth of meters in an instant, and then the time-delay fuse excites the high explosive in the warhead.

A huge explosion erupted in the earth at a depth of one meter, and one such bomb was enough to blow up a small pond of water, and the fortifications, which were usually bare on the surface, were wiped out after shelling.

The Japanese army was not just a launcher, Lao Qin They were under the cover five or six meters deep, the earth trembled, and it felt like ten thousand cannons were firing in unison.

If it is one or two shells, there can still be a whistling sound in the air, and if there are more shells, it will be like a train passing through the air, and it will sound non-stop.

And a large number of cannonballs roared, and the friction of the hot cannonballs in the sky against the air produced a sound like ten thousand gongs being beaten, and the sound of clanging was almost inaudible, but connected, terrifying sounds, making life worse than death.

If it's just a howitzer shell exploding and blowing up a big crater in a small pond, and hundreds of 150 howitzer shells come together, my God, it's like countless huge shovels, constantly digging out big holes in the ground and stirring them up.

In Lao Qin's bunker, he could feel the ground shaking up and down violently, and the butts of the guns standing on the ground were all shocked and jumped.

The big wood on the bunker was also shaking, and the sand was constantly leaking down, and like the rain, everyone stayed in the bunker as if they were in a tsunami sea, and they felt like they were going to die at any time.

People are here, as small and insignificant as an ant, life and death are not controlled by themselves, and the three battalions are scattered in dozens of bunkers in the position, and several have been blown up.

Once it was blown up, several layers of large wood and sandbags on it, and several meters of dirt were all pressed down, and the people in the bunker had almost no chance of survival, and they were either stoned to death, or they were buried alive and suffocated.

Lao Qin and the others were crammed into a small bunker, and everyone was silently praying, hoping that the bunker could survive this period of time, and there was a feeling of resignation.

Just when everyone was still struggling like a year, the observer saw through the gun mirror that the devil's tank was actually dispatched, which was very different from the previous devil's playing style.

In the past, the devil's tanks or infantry would only attack after the artillery fire was extended, or after the shelling was over, but now, the tsunami-like shelling continues, and the devil's tanks have begun to rush this way.

This is the devil's latest new tactic, tan artillery coordination, used by the Fifth Division before, the tank can withstand some small shrenel in the artillery barrage, as long as it is not hit by the artillery, it is still relatively safe.

Why did the devil take such a risk, in order to shorten the distance and time to launch the charge after the shelling, so that the defenders would lose this precious preparation time.

What to do?

Lao Qin and the others not only endured the torment of resignation under the bombardment, but now they also had to face the huge threat of the tank death approaching step by step.

"Calm, calm"

Guo Ye, the elder of the Ninth Company, also constantly told himself to calm down and have calm in every major event, which is a necessary quality for commanders and fighters.

"The demolition team prepares, and the rest, all with bayonets, handle grenades, and cover the demomen."

Lao Guo couldn't think of a better way for the time being, so he could only use the usual normal operation and give it a go, whether he was dead or alive, it was a matter of time.

After the devil's tank approached step by step, the cannon finally extended, and if it didn't extend, it would hit its own tank, not such a stupid unit.

But as soon as the devil's bombardment ended, Lao Qin and the others had not yet rushed out of the bunker, so they directly faced the devil's tank, and the people came directly at the door of the house.

"Fried!"

The Demoman who rushed to the front rushed towards the tank in a frenzy, pulling off cluster bombs or incendiary bombs, etc., and many people did not have time to think about it, nor did they have time to dodge, and they died directly with the tank.

Because the smoke caused by the barrage had not completely dissipated, the tank commander of the devil was also in the clouds and could not see the situation in front clearly, so the machine gunner of the tank fired blindly.

Blind shooting is to shoot aimlessly at the front or left and right, while shooting blindly, slowly running over some potholed positions and crawling forward.
