The sound of a huge explosion, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, resounded throughout the night of Shanghai, waking many people from their sleep, that is, Zhabei, Hongkou and other places close to Huishan Wharf, and even Lujiazui on the opposite side of the Huangpu River, can feel the shaking of the earth, many people even thought that the earthquake was coming, and ran out of the house where they lived naked.

When the explosion sounded, in the headquarters of the 88th Division in the Sixing warehouse, Division Commander Sun Yuan was napping, as the division commander, he had not closed his eyes for two days and two nights, and this night the above ordered their division to cooperate with the 20th Brigade to attack the enemy's headquarters, and it was imperative that the two of them clear several strongholds on the enemy's periphery before dawn.

The reason why they chose to attack at night was to avoid the powerful firepower of the devils, the enemy's artillery fire was really powerful, and there were also large-caliber 72-mm howitzers, and their fortifications were also very strong, since the start of the attack on the 15th, the 87th Division and the 88th Division have carried out countless attacks on the Hongkou area occupied by the enemy, knowing that the enemy's troops are not many, but they have not been able to complete the task within the time specified by the peakSince the first Sino-Japanese Songhu conflict, they have learned the lesson of that time, and many key points outside the Japanese concession have built reinforced concrete fortifications, and with only a few troops, they can stop or delay the advance of the national army, so for the national army, every time they occupy a street or alley, they have to pay a very painful price.

The attrition of the 88th Division has already reached 30 percent, and it has only been a few days since the start of the war?

Sun Yuan couldn't be compared, if they really had to attack the enemy's core headquarters, how many people would still be alive in their 88th Division?

Sun Yuan had just taken a nap when he was awakened by the powerful explosion, and he jumped up, thinking that the enemy's shells had exploded into his headquarters, and hurriedly shouted: "What's going on?" ”

Staff Officer Lin ran in from outside and hurriedly reported to him: "It's not our side, the explosion is in the northeast, it seems to be Huishan Wharf!" ”

"Huishan Wharf?" Sun Yuan couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately remembered the boat owner named Lin Jinghan in the afternoon, and at the same time thought of the pretentious Xiao Linghu, and couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart.

Zhuo Tongfeng also walked in and nodded affirmatively: "It's Huishan Wharf!" The flames over there lit up half of the sky! ”

"How can it be so powerful?" Sun Yuan thought for a while, and couldn't help but say: "Could it be ......" He really couldn't believe it.

Zhuo Tongfeng nodded affirmatively: "It seems that the boss surnamed Lin is right, there is an enemy's ammunition depot there, and this movement can only have such a great power if the ammunition depot is blown up!" ”

This time, even Staff Officer Lin couldn't help but say, "Could it be that Company Commander Xiao really has such great ability?" How did he get to Huishan Pier? As far as I can tell, that dock is a forbidden area for devils, and not everyone can enter it! ”

Zhuo Tongfeng glanced at him and Sun Yuan, and let out a sneer in his heart, but he still had a calm smile on his face: "I'll just say it, this Company Commander Xiao is a top student in the army school, and it is not too difficult for him to blow up an ammunition depot!" He was bragging for Xiao Linghu, and at the same time, he was also upset that in the afternoon, Sun Yuan underestimated Xiao Linghu and was upset.

Sun Yuan was a little embarrassed, he said "um", and did not say anything, thinking about it, at the beginning, he tried his best to prevent Xiao Linghu from going.

The operator ran over, but reported to Commander Sun: "The chief's department called and asked us what's going on with the big explosion?" ”

"Can the Chief's Department hear me?" This surprised Sun Yuan a little.

Zhuo Tongfeng said: "This must be reported by friendly forces to the Commander's Department." ”

Staff Officer Lin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly suggested to Sun Yuan: "Master, we can tell Shangfeng that we will send someone to blow up the ammunition depot that the devil hid at Huishan Wharf!" Hehe, this credit can only be obtained by our 88th Division! ”

Sun Yuan was stunned, but he set his eyes on Zhuo Tongfeng, and asked unconsciously, "Is this good?" ”

Staff Officer Lin also glanced at Zhuo Tongfeng and said, "What's wrong with this?" Although Xiao Linghu said that he was a person from the Commander's Department, he was in our 88th Division at this time, and he was a member of our 88th Division! Besides, Staff Officer Zhuo also went out from the 88th Division, and he brought Xiao Linghu back here to supervise the battle, and in fact, he was also the old man of our 88th Division, Staff Officer Zhuo, don't you say? ”

Zhuo Tongfeng knew that as long as he didn't say it, others would think that this credit belonged to the 88th Division. After all, he is a person who went out from the 88th Division, and he really hopes that the 88th Division will be stronger than other troops, although in this way, Xiao Linghu's merits will be inferior, but it can also be said! At least Xiao Linghu can have a shield, and in the future, if he is held accountable by the higher authorities and acts without military orders, he can also push it on the 88th Division.

Zhuo Tongfeng knows very well the truth that Mu Xiu is in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, even if Xiao Linghu's action is very successful this time, he still has the sin of disobeying military orders!

"Hmm!" In the end, Zhuo Tongfeng still nodded.

*****************************

Xiao Linghu did not expect that the enemy's ammunition depot was detonated in this way.

No matter how it was detonated, the result was the same, the explosion of the grenade was only a preliminary small explosion, but the real explosion was behind, first the explosive that was relatively close to the grenade exploded, then the nearby blasting canister, and then the shell that detonated naturally after the temperature was red-hot......

The explosions came and went, one after another, and the entire warehouse was held up to the sky, and those ghost soldiers who were originally guarding around the warehouse and shooting at Xiao Linghu and others were thrown up by a huge wave of air before they could react, and the flames came suddenly like thunder and lightning, and before they could shout, they were burned to ashes, even if they were a little farther away, they would also be hit by bullet fragments fired everywhere, and the entire Huishan Wharf was in a sea of fire and chaos.

The sound of the explosion did not stop immediately, one after another, among several people, only Xiao Linghu was the closest, but because there was a No. 1 warehouse blocking it, it was relatively safe, and it was so, there were still fragments that did not know what fell from the sky and hit him on the head, and if he wasn't wearing a helmet, maybe his head would have bled out.

Warehouse No. 1 was close to Warehouse No. 2, and the walls were also blown up, and Ah Peng lay there, and when the explosion started, he also tore his whole body apart, and threw his broken body into the sky, and then fell down with those debris, and disappeared in an instant.

Lin Jinghan and Yan Fei in the distance saw everything, only a burst of sorrow remained, if it weren't for Huang Mao and Meng Fanwei running over quickly and pulling the two of them into the ditch, they would definitely lose their minds and rush into the dangerous explosion to find Ah Peng's body!
