Chapter Forty-Four: The Fucking Ben
In a short time, nearly a thousand devil infantry, divided into three echelons, advanced to a distance of nearly a thousand meters with one charge, and most of the devils began to look for limited cover or crawl directly on the ground. There are only about 200 people left in a squadron of ghosts, with cats bent on their waists, walking zigzags, interspersed all the way to the south gate. Soon advanced to a distance of seven or eight hundred meters.
"Fuck it, the devil wants to use this little force to touch our firepower, where do you arrange for Su Canwen, who I asked you from Yuan Dong?" Jiang Haoran glanced back at Li Chang and said.
"When I first came up, I saw him, because he is an accurate shooter, I didn't make any arrangements for him, let him find the sniper point by himself, and now I don't know where he is, but it must be on this city wall, or I will send someone to find it?" Li Chang looked left and right as he spoke, hoping to see Su Canwen.
"No need, Xiaohu, go and call Su Canwu for me. Li Chang ordered the troops at the south gate of the headquarters to send four or five light machine guns to each sweep a clip of ammunition and then retreat, the light machine guns and rifles on the city wall could fire freely, and the heavy machine guns were dumb with me. Jiang Haoran said as he took a 38 cover from a soldier's hand, pushed the bullet into the chamber, and aimed it out along the muzzle of the gun in the city gatehouse.
With an order, the herald quickly ran to the passes.
The 27th Division is the elite field division of the Japanese army, and its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, and the military quality of this devil is naturally not much worse. Although only one squadron came up in the first batch, it was in a skirmish formation, and the distance between each soldier reached five to ten meters, and although machine gun fire could kill the enemy, it was not as effective as rifle accurate shooting.
A gunshot rang out, and a ghost squad leader who rushed to the front fell to the ground, honoring to be the first Japanese soldier to meet their Amaterasu in this battle.
Immediately, the machine guns and rifles on the city wall were bustling with activity. A few crutches in the circular sand barrier at the south gate of the city also began to roar.
As soon as the gunshots rang out, the devils in front fell to the ground one after another, and those behind immediately lay down, crawled to what they thought was a relatively safe low-lying place or behind a few rocks and mounds of earth, and fired back with their guns.
Immediately, the devil's first machine gun, with a dirt bag, also began to roar, the machine gunner gritted his teeth, desperately splashed the bullet at the machine gun sand barrier at the south gate, just fired less than half a cartridge of bullets, his head tilted, his body pumped straight, and the machine gun also stopped suddenly. Seeing this, the sub-machine gunner on the side hurriedly stepped forward and pushed him, "Kojima-kun, what's wrong?" The Heavy rolled down the dirt bag on his back under the force of this push, and saw that he was still gritting his teeth, his eyes bulging as if to protrude from his sockets, and there was an extra bullet hole in the middle of the helmet, and bright red blood flowed out of the helmet. The co-gunner bent over, clutching his chest as if he was distressed, and a sound came out between his teeth, "Baga," and then he raised his head and touched the machine gun. "Bah", the sound of a bullet piercing through the steel helmet sounded, and the sub-machine gunner also slipped down from the dirt bag, staring at the machine gunner who fell next to him with a pair of dead eyes, as if there was too much disbelief.
The condescending firing angle made even the devil lying under the stones and dirt bags basically completely exposed to the muzzle of the machine gun battalion, coupled with the accurate shooting of Jiang Haoran, Su Canwen, and Su Canwu, the devil's machine gun could not be fired at all, and even if it started, it would only be fired in a few seconds. From time to time, there were screams and wails in the devil's camp, and the devil's squadron leader hid in a stone crevice and howled: "Artillery support, artillery support!" ”
Two miles away, on a small hillside, the headquarters of the Japanese brigade was located. Brigade Commander Taro Murakami Nakasa basically understood the firepower point of the Shina Army from the telescope, and the sand barrier at the south gate was relatively concentrated, and he immediately ordered the artillery to be included in the key strike. Because it was a siege, he had to ask his superiors for artillery reinforcement. At this moment, four 92 infantry guns and two mountain guns, the first round of rapid-fire shells immediately took off into the air and went straight to the city wall and the south gate of China. But the effect was not ideal, only two shells fell on the city wall, and the remaining four exploded in front of the sand barrier at the south gate. Soon the artillery was re-tuned to Zhuyuan. This time, two shots flew up the city wall, and the other four all hit the sand barrier at the south gate. I saw that the soldiers of China were blown up into the sky by powerful shells, and they could even see many stumps and broken arms flying out of the sand barriers.
With a satisfied smile on his face, Taro Murakami ordered the artillery fire not to stop and destroy the fire points of the Shina people at a deep level, and on the other hand, he ordered all the infantry to take advantage of the support of the artillery fire to press up on the whole line and strive to take the south gate with a single charge. Because the Chinese had already occupied their ammunition warehouses and they did not carry much ammunition, he could only quickly break through the defense line of the Chinese with limited artillery support, and strive to achieve this miraculous feat before the arrival of Wing Commander Masao Suzuki.
The city wall of Mahuiling suddenly burst into fire, and the south gate became a sea of fire. Jiang Haoran and Li Chang were standing on the city gate tower at the south gate, and the artillery fire below was rising, so hot that they had to retreat inside.
"! The devil doesn't want money for this cannonball, or what's the matter? Bombarded dozens of Lao Tzu's straw men alive. Li Chang howled in his mouth, stretched his neck, and looked at the stumps and broken arms of the straw men that flew past the muzzle of the gun from time to time, as if he was very distressed. Because the south gate is not the main gate, it is not as atmospheric as the north gate, but it is slightly larger than the anti-artillery hole, so there are only two gun muzzles that people can look out.
"Let him bang! I don't believe that he can be so arrogant without the ammunition warehouse. Let everyone be ready, the devils have already begun to charge with artillery fire, don't save me bullets, give me a fucking damn book. Jiang Haoran's face showed a sinister smile.
The walls are stronger than anyone could have imagined. The main body of the entire city wall is made of big bluestone, and the city wall is even paved with a thick layer of granite, the devil's 92 infantry cannon, a civil fortification or a brick wall structure of the turret or something, that is one by one. But if you want to break through this stone wall, it's not that tooth. Cannonballs kept falling on the city walls, smashing white marks on the ground. Flying shrapnel flew past the ears of the soldiers lying on the sand barriers, and those soldiers who had been built too low finally suffered the bitter fruits, many of them scarred and some of them had died long ago. What was really powerful was that several shells exploded directly in the sand, tearing the fighters of the machine-gun battalion to pieces, and some even flew down the city walls.
The devil's artillery fire did not stop as soon as Jiang Haoran imagined, the devils of the brigade had already pressed them on all fronts, Jiang Haoran had to order all the firepower on the city wall, braving the shells to fire, Li Chang personally led the team, and the light and heavy machine guns at the south gate were also set up. The firepower of the machine gun battalion was good, and there were thirty or forty light and heavy machine guns alone, but Jiang Haoran hid nearly half of them. The devil's artillery fire and the attack of nearly a thousand people made Li Chang feel a lot of pressure. A company that had just been brought out was suddenly reduced by one-third under the gunfire of the devils. Li Chang had to personally knock a Type 92 heavy machine gun.
