Chapter 16: The Clouds in All Directions (I)
In the face of this national flag fluttering on the Sixing warehouse, the Chinese compatriots cheered, and the soldiers of the British Concession were in awe, but the soldiers of this country, looking at this national flag, they were about to be mad. If the gaze can also become a weapon, the national flag fluttering in the wind must have been torn into countless pieces by the gaze of the soldiers.
Think about it, they said that their own soldiers have conquered the whole of Shanghai, and have forced hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops to retreat westward, who would have thought that they would be in front of a small four-line warehouse, by a small branch of the army, forcibly blocked for three days, and even let them fight more and more bravely, and also raise a national flag in a big way!
Before the start of the Songhu Campaign, the diplomats in straight suits, with a confident smile on their faces, faced the world media, and took great pains to propose that "they can capture" Shanghai's Haikou within three days, but now they have concentrated their superior forces to launch an attack on a Sixing warehouse that has been heavily encircled, and three days have passed, but the Sixing warehouse is still in the hands of the Chinese army.
The field commander was really mad, he grabbed the phone, and after connecting the captain's room of the air carrier, no matter who answered the call, he roared loudly: "Attack me!" Offensive! Offensive! Did you hear that? I want you to knock down the rags of the man in the shortest possible time! I know that there are anti-aircraft machine guns on the four rows of warehouses, but how many anti-aircraft machine guns can they erect in such a big place? I don't care what method you use, even if it's a fighter jet to hit me, you always think you have to knock down that flag for me! Otherwise, we will say that the face of the Imperial Army of this empire will be lost! ”
The aircraft carriers anchored on the Huangpu River began to get busy again, and the Type 96 carrier-based fighters, one after another, flew into the blue sky one after another amid a huge roar. They formed an attack formation in the air, and sprinted straight towards the four rows of warehouses along the way.
Listening to the dull roar of the fighter group flying in the air, a soldier standing on the top floor of the four-row warehouse, holding a telescope in his hand and carefully observing the sky, shouted: "Report, enemy planes have been found, one, two, three, four, five, six, a total of six fighters!" ”
Xie Jinyuan raised his head and looked at the five black shadows like vultures that were faintly discernible to the naked eye, and under the clouds in the distance, they rushed straight towards the Sixing Warehouse at an astonishing speed that was not as fast as they could be concealed. These six Type 96 fighters, when they were about to fly over the Sixing Warehouse, their formation suddenly dispersed, and they were actually divided into three combat groups, and they swooped down on the top floor of the Sixing Warehouse from three directions, the flagpole erected high.
Before the fighters could rush over, more than a dozen muffled shelling sounds rang out from a few hundred meters away, and more than a dozen small-caliber artillery pieces equipped by the army units hit the walls of the four rows of warehouses. For a while, shrapnel and fragments of reinforced concrete whirred in the air. The machine guns that the army was erected on a row of civilian houses, and the machine guns that tried to suppress the fire of the four rows of warehouses began to strafe together.
On the battlefield where six fighters swooped down on the battlefield from the top of his head, and the shells and bullets in front of him poured like a storm, Xie Jinyuan smiled. "Six fighters were dispatched at one time, and they were shelling and machine gun fire, and they were really enough to give me Xie Jinyuan face."
Xie Jinyuan's voice was not loud, but on this battlefield where guns and cannons were roaring, everyone could hear it clearly. If Xie Jinyuan's first impression of Yang Huimin was that he was a man with the strength of a soldier but still gentle, then now, he is a fearless sailor who can still be calm in the face of the earth-shattering waves, standing proudly on the bow of the ship and blowing the battle horn, leading everyone around him to cross the peak of death again and again.
"Don't panic!"
Xie Jinyuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the six Type 96 fighters that rushed towards the Sixing warehouse from three directions, and shouted: "I said that this action of mine is aimed at our national flag!" Their platoon artillery can't hit here, their machine gun bullets, and it doesn't break our flag, they really have only one offensive, and that's their fighters! ”
"Click......
The two heavy machine guns erected on the top floor of the Sixing warehouse, and the six fighter planes that swept over the Sixing warehouse at high speed began to roar frantically almost at the same time, and the bullets fired by the two sides drew fiery bullet marks in the air, intertwining with each other, forming a web of death that looked so beautiful and so cruel.
The bullets fired from the fighter planes plowed over and over again from the top floor of the Sixing warehouse, and the bullets hit the ground fiercely, and the exploding dirt and splashed pieces of rubble flew everywhere, and in the sound of "porphyry" and "porphyry", the bullet marks were advancing at an astonishing speed that was not concealed, and they hit the machine gunner's face fiercely, bringing out a hot pain.
A company commander standing beside Xie Jinyuan took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Regiment commander, it's dangerous here, let's quickly retreat below!" ”
Xie Jinyuan glanced at the company commander, he reached out and grabbed Yang Huimin, walked to the gate of the connected warehouse, and pushed Yang Huimin into a safe position. Just when everyone thought that Xie Jinyuan would also follow and hide in the Sixing Warehouse, Xie Jinyuan's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Xie Jinyuan turned his head, at this time, there seemed to be two clusters of flames burning in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't move, who dares to retreat?" ”
Looking at Xie Jinyuan, who was standing at the door and blocking the passage, the soldiers who were familiar with Xie Jinyuan were all stunned.
On this battlefield where bullets are raining, they can only rely on two anti-aircraft machine guns to block the enemy, and any tactics and command skills have lost their effect, and they no longer need to judge the situation and issue combat orders one by one.
Xie Jinyuan thought of a person, he was a battalion commander of the engineer battalion, and he was also a warrior who drove a small steamer full of ZHA medicine during the surprise attack on the "Izumo" and directly attacked the flagship of the "Izumo" of the Navy.
Now Xie Jinyuan still clearly remembers the ordinary face of this warrior, and even more remembers what he said to himself when he carried out that mortal mission.
"If I succeed, I hope that the ashes from the explosion will fly down to the roof of your house."
"If I fail, I want my body to be blown up to ashes that will always float in the air."
"If I don't even succeed in detonating the ZHA medicine on the little steamer, and you can find my body afterwards, I hope you can put a cloth over my face before I am buried in the ground. For I have no face, go to our fathers and fathers! ”
Xie Jinyuan raised his head, now between the sky and the earth in this firmament, there should still be the ashes of the engineer battalion brother, and his loyal soul who can't return, and has no shame to fall back on this vast land, right?!
Xie Jinyuan took a breath gently, as if he wanted to suck the fearless bravado and unruliness of that brother into his lungs and into his blood. Xie Jinyuan suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the national flag, and asked in a deep voice: "If this national flag still has to fall in the end, what is padded under it is our corpse!" ”
