Chapter 571: Take it when you see it
The cannonballs "thumped" and exploded on the river near the gunboats, and the dense rain of bullets "chirped" and hit the water near the gunboats and boats, and the columns of water that sprung up could almost form a high wall of water, and the air waves of the shells exploded one after another, and the waves rushed towards the brothers on the boat like mountain peaks, and they were drenched in soup at that time.
The devil cruiser on the opposite side is getting closer and closer, the brothers looked at the devil warship, they were all so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths, this behemoth is too big, it is several stories high, and you can't see the deck above when you look up, if you want to hit the devil soldiers above, it seems that you have to use the mortars you brought!
The small guns on the gunboat fired, the mortars "clanged", and the shells flew into the air one by one like "sky monkeys", drawing a graceful arc not far above the devil cruiser, and then smashed straight down at the deck and bridge!
"Boom" A few mortar shells fell on the deck of the cruiser and exploded, although these shells did not cause any damage to the deck of the devil cruiser, but the fire and smoke rising from the explosion and the shock wave blew up those things near the deck, coupled with a series of dazzling sparks that popped out of the hull of the dense gunshots, the devil captain on the cruiser was a little weak-hearted, afraid that the Chinese soldiers on the small boat would climb up and grab the ship, so he was no longer arrogant, and hurriedly ordered the cruiser to reverse immediately and retreat at full speed!
Seeing that the devil warship quickly reversed to the back, the gunboat and the guns on the small sampan behind it hit more violently, the bullets hit the armor outside the warship, and the sparks that jumped up were strings and chains, "clanging", although they couldn't make a hole, but at least they could leave a hole.
The devil in Nakajima was already bloodless at the moment, and repeatedly asked the captain of the devil to speed up and retreat, he understood that he could not be entangled with those Chinese "water ghosts" who were familiar with water on the river, and he had suffered from these "white stripes in the waves" under Han Fei on the Jiangyin River.
After all, it is a big ship, the tonnage is not small, and it is not very easy to turn around, but fortunately, the skin is thick and the flesh is strong, and the company commanders under Zhao Yongfu have no help but to get this behemoth ironclad ship, and the "57" mm main gun on the gunboat hits the outer armor of the cruiser, and it can only smash out a pit, and other grenades and mortars are just scratching.
"Company commander, can you rush forward?" One of his subordinates asked.
"It's too tall and too big, the rope is not enough, it's useless to rush up, it's better to fight outside for a while, let the devil boat run!" The company commander didn't plan to rob this cruiser, this time he didn't bring many people, and there were already shells from another devil warship around the cruiser exploding, and the exploded water column was able to overturn the gunboat and the small sampan into the river!
Finally turned the cruiser around, the devil engineer pushed violently, the big chimneys on the devil warship came out of the billowing black smoke, the cruiser's engine roared, and fled back at full power.
In the blink of an eye, the bullets could no longer hit the fleeing devil warship, and when he saw this, the company commander hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "Stop shooting, turn around and retreat!" ”
Returned to the shore, there were many devil corpses floating on the river here, and a few devils with big lives actually floated to the shore, but before they could get up and see what it was like on the shore, there were immediately submachine guns pointed at their heads, these devils were not stupid, they did not make senseless resistance, and they did not commit suicide by disemboweling their stomachs like those devils with a tendon and neurosis, but immediately raised their heads and surrendered to those Chinese soldiers with guns!
As soon as the company commander came ashore, his subordinates reported to him: "I have captured a few devil prisoners." ”
"Okay, send these captives to the regimental headquarters, and see if you can ask for something?"
At this time, the sentry outside reported: "Commander Zhao is here!" ”
When the company commander heard this, he hurriedly came out to greet him, Zhao Yongfu came over with a group of staff officers and guards, and the company commander hurriedly reported to him the situation of the battle on the river just now, Zhao Yongfu was very satisfied, and nodded again and again and praised: "Good fight, you have made great contributions this time, and wait for Commander Han to come back and give you credit!" ”
"Thank you for the compliment!" The company commander was very happy, although he suffered a lot of losses in this battle, he was able to repel the attack of the devil fleet, and also eliminated many devils who landed on the shore, completed the combat mission, and was able to receive meritorious service awards, and he was still in a very good mood.
But Zhao Yongfu muttered, "You didn't find Chief Han and their fleet on the river?" ”
"No? Definitely not, if Captain Han and his fleet could appear on the flank at that time, you could still destroy a few more devils in this battle, maybe you could snatch back a big devil ship? The company commander said blankly.
"It's strange, Lao Han is obviously about to rush here, why hasn't he appeared yet? Where did they go? Zhao Yongfu was puzzled and muttered to himself.
It's not that Han Fei is late, but that there is a new change in the enemy situation at this time, when Han Fei rushed to the vicinity of Cangbo Gate, it was when the main force of the devils under the devils on the island frantically charged the **** position of Cangbo Gate, due to the fierce artillery fire of the devils, the planes bombarded indiscriminately, and the two peripheral positions outside the Cangbo Gate were quickly conquered by the devils.
These officers can be said to be hungry, and when they saw Han Fei coming with the team, they hurriedly stopped them and said to Han Fei: "This chief, the Cangbo Gate position is about to be captured by devils?" The two outer positions were occupied by devils, and now the brothers are crowded to the city wall, please go and save the brothers over there, it will be too late after a while! ”
Han Fei heard that the situation here in Cangbomen was critical, and immediately ordered Liu Ruye and Haizi to take two companies under his command to follow the communication officer Dao Cangbomen to resist the onslaught of the devils.
"Chief Han, Bagua Island is also dangerous." Liu Ruye didn't understand and asked Han Feidao.
"It's different from here, there is Lao Zhao on the side of Bagua Continent, and the devils still can't eat them for a while, Cangbo Gate is very close to here, it is the gateway to the east of the city, once it is conquered by the devils, then the Jinling Nuda and the nearby docks will all fall into the hands of the devils, even if we keep the Bagua Continent, it's useless, and there are so many villagers who can't evacuate in it!" Han Fei decided to save Cangbomen here first, Zhao Yongfu on the Bagua Continent side estimated that he would not be able to do this, and he should be able to block a wave of attacks from the devil's fleet.
