The commander of the flying regiment, Erich Hartmann, and the Soviet horizontal bomber group with Zhang Jun's incendiary bombs, dropped the fatal incendiary bombs on Danyang City under the faint starlight.

The devils in Danyang also have some aviation guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, but the Japanese do not have searchlights for the air, saying that little Japan has always paid no attention to the air defense system, and in the history of later generations, a Chinese bomber carrying leaflets flew over Tokyo, dropped a large number of leaflets, and was able to return safely, which shows how bad the air defense system of little Japan is.

When Hartmann's plane flew over Danyang, it first circled over Danyang, and the artillery on the ground began to shoot, and the fire generated by the explosion of the cannon or ignited the houses in Danyang, giving Hartmann in the air a very clear guide to the bombing target, so many wooden houses, under the bombardment of the new German incendiary bombs, countless fires rose from Danyang City, the early bombing planes did not feel strange in the air, and the bombed planes kept trembling in the air, that was because of the huge ground on the ground, The fierce fire created a huge updraft, which made it impossible for any plane in the air to keep its balance.

The fire in Danyang City was more violent with the help of the third-level breeze, such a fierce fire, hundreds of meters away will feel the skin pinprick-like stinging, there dare to go to put out the fire, not to mention the incendiary bomb explosion sputtered napalm, the high temperature produced is more than 2,000 degrees, even the steel will be turned into molten steel, if people are within the explosion range of this napalm, will soon turn into ashes. In just ten minutes after the bombing, the whole city was shrouded in raging flames, and the street fighting fortifications that Little Japan had worked so hard to build in the past few days were all scum, and they could not stop the abuse of the fire at all.

There are more than 60,000 small Japanese people in the city, and the urban area is 20 square kilometers, and there are more than 3,000 devils per square kilometer. This fire disrupted all the deployment and fantasy of the devil, and Matsui Shigen could not imagine that the Chinese were so ruthless that they even used fire attack on their own cities.

"It's all over."

Admiral Matsui Ishine closed his eyes in despair in his command room, and slowly pulled out his command knife given by the Emperor, but one of Matsui Ishine's subordinates quickly snatched the command knife from Admiral Matsui Ishine's hand, and said with tears on his face:

"General, you can't be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor now, there are still tens of thousands of imperial troops waiting for your command in the city, let them break through now and save more warriors for His Majesty the Emperor, it's your duty, General, please."

Matsui Shigen suddenly had a thrill, as if he had just woken up from a dream, yes! The squadron is now using incendiary bombs to attack the city, which shows that they have no intention of attacking tonight, and both sides are desperately building fortifications some time ago, and the squadron will never have imagined that the Japanese army will still break through in today's situation, that is, the "hell demon" that everyone curses -- Zhang Jun will never think that the name "hell demon" is a nickname given to Zhang Jun by little Japan, and the outside world prefers to call Zhang Jun "the Eastern Grim Reaper".

"Order, so the soldiers concentrated to break through to the southeast, charged in waves in formation, and attacked without stopping, and those who retreated were immediately shot on the spot."

After Matsui Shigen gave the order, he continued to send two telegrams, one was to the Shanghai defenders, ordering them to send half of the personnel to collect a large number of ships in Taihu Lake, and then drive to the east of Danyang City to meet the retreating Japanese troops at the Hui'an Wharf as fast as possible, Matsui Shigen's move is really vicious, Danyang is more than 20 kilometers away from Taihu Lake, because there is Taihu Lake to block the Japanese army in this direction, so the squadron did not take this direction as the focus of defense, and when it was besieged in the early stage, it only dug five trenches, As long as Matsui Shigen breaks out, and then builds a backwater ring fortification at Hui'an Wharf, the Japanese army can definitely use a large number of ships to withdraw from a large number of Japanese troops.

Because of geographical and climatic reasons, Danyang is located not far from the sea, so the wind blows from the ocean to the land at night, that is to say, the wind blows from the west to the east of Danyang, so Zhang Jun and their incendiary bombs are basically dropped in the west of Danyang, even if there is a breeze to burn, a city of twenty square kilometers, hundreds of fires burned at the same time, it will take several days and nights to burn out, although the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties in the bombing of this incendiary bomb, no less than 15,000 people were burned alive by the fire, However, there were still more than 40,000 Japanese troops who could be used for attack and defense, but the fire made the Japanese army dare not continue to hold on.

The screams of the Japanese soldiers who were scorched by the fire were more miserable than the sounds from hell, and many people made this kind of creepy screams at the same time, even Matsui Ishine, who was in the headquarters, could clearly hear the terrible screams of his subordinates, and Matsui Ishine, who only listened to it, had a numb scalp and a bulging muscle, but as a stubborn militarist, this tenacious mentality was there.

And Zhang Jun was meditating in front of the map in the command room at this time, this is his post, this is his job, Zhang Jun in later generations is just a military fan, and he has not undergone any "special forces" training, if he really wants Zhang Jun to go to the front line to fight, maybe he will go to see Marx in a battle, learn from other people's crossing, and be a Xiaoqiang who can't be killed? Zhang Jun also wants to ah! But is there really anyone in this world who can't be killed? Of course not, Zhang Jun is also an ordinary person after crossing over, just an ordinary person with a background and familiar with the history of later generations, this is his most powerful "golden finger".

Zhang Jun can't think of what tricks Matsui Ishine will use to defuse his offensive, from Zhang Jun's position, how to look at it, Matsui Ishine is a dead end, but Zhang Jun knows that if he treats his opponent as a pig, then he himself will be a "stupid pig", because Matsui Ishine is definitely not a "stupid pig", but a cunning enemy, so Matsui Ishine definitely has a back move, but Zhang Jun can't think of it, and there is no such thing in the history of later generations, it completely depends on Zhang Jun's personal ability to analyze Matsui Ishigen, It seems that Zhang Jun still lacks experience in commanding large-scale battles, and actual combat training is very important to Zhang Jun.

The squadron outside Danyang City, a total of 550,000 people, was scattered in all directions, because the attack might be launched tomorrow, and the ammunition would have been sent to the hands of the soldiers as early as possible, and all the officers strongly asked their subordinates to sleep, but the explosions, screams, and fires in the city could not make people sleep, so all the ** people held their guns in their arms, and then laughed in groups of three or five.

Suddenly, a huge roar sounded in the southeast of Danyang City, accompanied by a piercing scream, countless shells drew a hot trajectory in the air, and smashed down hatefully against the position outside the city, and in an instant the entire position was shrouded in a violent explosion, and the bodies of countless people were blown up into the sky by the explosion, and they were torn into pieces. The position southeast of Danyang City was the defensive position of the 122nd Division of the 22nd Army Corps of the Sichuan Army, with more than 12,000 people in the division, evenly distributed in the five trenches.

Two kilometers behind them, is the 57th Division of the 74th German Army, the commander of the 57th Division: Theodore Ike Deputy Division Commander: Zhang Lingpu (Infantry Division) can come here, it is completely Zhang Jun's unintentional move, Zhang Jun's last attack on Changzhou, is to let the 74th Army attack side by side, this kind of three German armor divisions can support each other, but the casualties of other troops are very large, this attack Zhang Jun made some adjustments, the German armor division, each other attacking troops sandwiched a German division, The 57th Division, of which Zhang Lingfu was the deputy division commander, happened to be assigned to the position of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army as their vigilance and support position, because the 74th Army did not participate in the urban offensive battle. There are really too many unexpected elements of war, and sometimes a small mistake can change the outcome of the entire battle.

The Japanese troops in Danyang City had more than 300 artillery pieces of various calibers, and they lost more than 100 guns in the bombardment, and now the remaining more than 200 artillery pieces are all fiercely shelling the Sichuan army's positions southeast of Danyang City in the form of rapid fire. The soldiers of the Sichuan Army, who were still talking in groups of three or five just now, were instantly blown up by the little devil's cannon.

"Shelling, fast forward to the anti-artillery hole......"

As soon as an officer finished shouting, a cannonball exploded next to the officer, and the unknown Sichuan army officer was thrown out of the trench by the explosion, and then was torn into pieces by the subsequent explosion in an instant, only the broken military uniform was still in the air for a long time and was unwilling to fall, just like the immortal soul of the Sichuan army officer, unwilling to leave the land where he was born and grew up.

The artillery bombardment of the little devils came suddenly and violently, so that the Sichuan army, which was poorly equipped and had not fought a modern war, said that the shelling of the little devils was fatal, and the ten minutes of fierce shelling made the first line of defense of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army pay the price of at least 700 casualties.

However, the devils of Danyang City followed the artillery bombardment, the artillery fire just began to extend, the little devil's death squad came up, about more than 2,000 devils launched an attack, the little devil screamed in his mouth "onboard, onboard......" and swarmed into the first trench of the 122nd Division, the little devil came up is a desperate posture, hand-to-hand combat started directly within dozens of seconds after the shelling, originally there were more than 2,000 people on the first line of defense of the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army, but the shelling of the little devil killed and injured more than 700 people in the first trench, Many people did not react from the shelling at all, the little devil rushed into the trenches, and rushed to the front with the "38 big cover", many Sichuan brothers were stabbed to death by the little Japan in a daze, and the remaining Sichuan brothers finally reacted and began to fight back desperately, trying to drive the little Japan out of the trenches, at this time the first trench of the Sichuan army was less than a thousand people, and it was impossible to drive the little Japan out of the trenches, and there was no suspense that they were annihilated by the little Japan.
