Chapter 610 The Anti-Japanese War of Songhu and the Anti-Japanese War encircled and annihilated Shark Island

When the Japanese troops were still more than 200 meters away from the first barricade, a whistling sound came from far and near, and then more than a dozen explosions sounded in front and behind the armored car, and the smoke and dust of the explosion instantly covered the armored car tightly.

In the smoke and dust, asphalt blocks on the asphalt road, and fragments of masonry and stone on the side of the street were splashed everywhere in the dense ranks of the Japanese army, and the most fatal thing was the flying shrapnel, which killed more than a dozen Japanese soldiers at once, and almost all the rest were wounded.

Before the smoke and dust could clear, the three armored vehicles were surprisingly unscathed and rushed out of the smoke and dust, and continued to roar towards the barricades. Immediately afterwards, the Japanese troops also rushed out of the smoke and dust immediately behind the armored vehicles.

Fortunately for the Japanese squadron leader Kamei, due to the close distance and the buildings on both sides of the road, the Chinese behind the barricade only fired one mortar shell before stopping firing. Kamei understood that the opponent's firepower was stronger than his own, and only by relying on the cover of armored vehicles, his squadron quickly approached the barricades and fought with the Chinese, he had a chance of victory.

Kamei held his sword, roared wildly, and led the charge to rush forward with the armored vehicle.

Because this Viks armored car is wheeled, it is very fast on the street, and the distance of a hundred meters is quickly crossed, and it is only less than a hundred meters away from the barricade in front of the railway line, and the Chinese do not even shoot, which makes Kamei feel a little uneasy.

The Japanese tactic was to let the armored vehicles drive in front of the barricades, and the machine gun fire on the vehicles suppressed the opponents, and then the infantry rushed into the barricades to destroy the enemy.

For the tactics of the Chinese against armored vehicles, the Japanese army has summed up the lesson, that is, to let the infantry get as close as possible to the armored vehicles for cover, and eliminate the Chinese attacking armored vehicles. Now, his own troops are faithfully carrying out this tactic, and the Chinese are so slow to shoot that once the armored vehicles rush in front of the barricades, his troops can hardly stop them.

Could it be that the Chinese on the opposite side were not afraid of the imperial army rushing over?

Or is there some conspiracy of the Chinese?

It's just that Kamei has no time to think about it now, he only has one way now, that is, no matter what, rush over and talk about it, otherwise under the blow of the opponent's fierce firepower, it will be difficult for his troops to have a chance to retreat safely.

The armored car was only a little more than 50 meters away from the barricade, which made Kamei feel a little more at ease.

Although the Chinese seem to have found a way to attack armored vehicles, that is, to concentrate a few heavy machine guns at close range and strafe armored vehicles with dense bullets - Kamei knows that this method, although effective, takes time, and it is difficult for bullets to penetrate its armor without more than 500 rounds per armored vehicle.

For a bullet to penetrate Vix's armor, it requires probability, and it is a percentile probability.

Their attack was precisely taking into account this tactic of the Chinese, and they simultaneously launched a sortie to attack the only three remaining armored vehicles of the North Station troops, the purpose of which was to make the Chinese take care of one and lose the other, and it was absolutely impossible for them to effectively attack three armored vehicles at the same time in a short period of time.

Calling myself a smart Chinese, this time I will let you taste the power of the bayonets of the Imperial Japanese Army.

Just when Kamei thought victory was in sight, a dense "dongdong" sound suddenly reached his eardrums, and instinctively, Kamei could hear that it must be the sound of machine guns firing, and not one or two, but more than a dozen machine guns firing at the same time.

However, from the sound of the machine gun firing, he could not tell what kind of machine gun it was. Because, he had never heard such a machine gun.

This sound was neither a light machine gun like the ZB-26 that the squadron was heavily equipped with, nor a Maxim heavy machine gun, but a machine gun firing sound that he had never heard. …,

However, judging by the sound of common sense, the caliber of this machine gun will not be small, and the power must be very large.

Kamei quickly confirmed his judgment, as he saw a sudden appearance of dense holes thicker than a thumb on the side front armor of an armored car on the left side in front of him, and the number of those holes was increasing rapidly. The armor of the armored car is like a layer of window paper, which is instantly beaten into a sieve-like feeling under the impact of fierce wind and sand.

Although the three armored vehicles were still rushing forward crookedly, Kamei could no longer hear the "burst" of the heavy machine guns on the car, and Kamei suddenly felt a burst of fear, the machine guns of the Chinese were so powerful, in front of them, such armored targets turned out to be like paper paste.

Immediately after, an even more terrifying thing happened, a soldier in front of Kamei's right who was charging with a rifle in his upper body suddenly stopped his waist and folded it into two pieces, and the splattered blood sprayed his face.

Kamei knew that the soldier had been shot by the Chinese's terrible machine gun. If it is a situation after being strafed by a Maxim heavy machine gun, it is estimated that two or three guns will have to fire at the same time, and it is necessary to ensure that the bullets fired by them are all hit in the waist of the soldier.

Before Kamei could recover from the shock, dozens of black grenades suddenly flew from the roofs and windows of the buildings on both sides. And one of the smoking grenades was rolling to the foot of Kamei.

This is a grenade similar to that used by the Japanese army, except that its fragmentation groove is not the square one on the Japanese grenade, but a diamond-shaped one.

Kamei's reaction was not unpleasant, and he stepped behind a soldier who tried to use his body to block the debris from the explosion. Unfortunately, Kamei was stepping on a grenade that was also smoking, and his foot slipped and he fell on the grenade, and a sharp pain that pierced his heart spread through his tailbone.

"Boom, boom......"

The sound of a dense explosion sounded in the crowd of Japanese soldiers, and although the momentum of this explosion was not as strong as the mortar shelling just now, it was because there were more shrapnel and caused more damage to the Japanese troops. In the explosion, more than 30 Japanese soldiers were killed.

Before the explosions stopped, the sound of dense machine guns, submachine guns, rifles, and the firing of more than a dozen shell guns rang out from the buildings on both sides, and the remaining dozens of Japanese soldiers fell to the ground and died one after another under the blow of fire from three sides.

The poor Japanese troops, who had nowhere to hide in the narrow streets, and whose armored vehicles were destroyed again, made it impossible to attack, had to stubbornly return fire while retreating back.

Ten minutes later, Kamei's squadron fled back to Sameshima Gushige's side, with only one Japanese soldier covered in blood.

The ferocious firepower of the other side not only shocked Sameshima Gushige, but also the two Japanese captains standing beside Sameshima Gushige couldn't help but look at each other.

The only remaining assault force, three armored vehicles were all destroyed by the other side in an instant, and the strength of a squadron was all wiped out in just ten minutes, such a terrifying combat power made Yudao Gu reimagined, what kind of reinforcements did the Chinese who were defeated by themselves just now?

Sameshima knew that his hopeful attack had not only failed again, but had failed even worse than the previous ones, and that it was absolutely impossible to continue the attack, which would only completely destroy the lives of the remaining 700 people.

wanted to organize a retreat, but the other party firmly blocked his retreat.

If they make a detour through the streets and alleys to return to the concession area east of North Sichuan Road, they are not familiar with the labyrinthine streets and alleys of Shanghai, and they may not only spend more time exposing themselves to Chinese fire, but they are also likely to be scattered by the 19th Route Army, which has the numerical advantage, which is no different from scattering and breaking through, and there may not be many Japanese troops who can eventually escape back to the concession. …,

Moreover, at this time, the two battalions of the Nineteenth Route Army, which were routed by him on both sides, surrounded them from both sides, and it would take time to break through the encirclement, and at that time, this Chinese reinforcement would come up from behind, and he would be attacked on all sides.

Also, he believed that Shiozawa Koichi would definitely do his best to rescue him after learning that he was in a difficult situation, and if he chose to break through the streets and alleys at this time, Shiozawa Koichi's rescue troops would not only be difficult to find them, but also more convenient for the Chinese to block the rescue forces in the streets and alleys.

Sharkhima Gushige knows very well that Shiozawa Koichi now has the number of troops in his hands, plus the armed expatriates, Shiozawa Koichi can organize at least 3,000 people, judging from the fact that the other party did not take the initiative to attack himself, although the other party's reinforcements are fierce, but the number should not be large, if Shiozawa Koichi's reinforcements can arrive in time, then it is very likely to attack inside and outside and rescue them.

After quickly weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Sharkhima quickly weighed the pros and cons, and ordered to occupy the surrounding buildings and hold on to the spot and wait for reinforcements.

It can be seen from the organization of the previous attacks that Sameshima Guzhong was very mediocre in command, from the beginning of the 19th Route Army with great contempt, after suffering setbacks, he turned to cautious combat, and now he has a sense of fear for the squadron, which dooms Sameshima Guzhong to the fate of failure.

After Sameshima Guzhong did not dare to break through the siege, but chose the strategy of sticking to the spot and waiting for reinforcements, Shi Ming and Zhang Junsong quickly commanded Zhang Junsong's first and third battalions of the Sixth Regiment, as well as the battalion of the Fourth Route Army to block the attack, as well as a battalion of the Military Police Regiment, to surround Shark Island Guzhong.

In order not to give Shark Island a respite, after the encirclement was completed, Shi Ming immediately ordered an attack on the Japanese troops in the encirclement.

The first and third battalions, which had suffered heavy casualties under the fierce firepower of the Japanese army, saw that their own reinforcements had not only come, but also that the reinforcements were particularly powerful, so that the Japanese army did not dare to attack again, but chose to hold on.

The Japanese firepower was extremely fierce, and although they chose to hold on and occupy a geographical advantage, they still could not rush the two battalions of the 6th Regiment, on the contrary, they inflicted great casualties on themselves.

However, the battalion of the Fourth Route Army fought in a very orderly manner, they did not attack along the streets, but used the shelter of buildings, used a large number of grenades, and gradually advanced through the walls and houses, destroying the Japanese army building by building.

Shi Ming saw that the attack of the Sixth Regiment was unfavorable, so he immediately found Zhang Junsong and handed over more than 30 people drawn from the Fourth Route Army to him. These men were dispersed into the platoons of the 132 battalions to impart the experience of street fighting.

Gradually, the officers and men of the Sixth Regiment gradually found the trick of street fighting, and began to fight with a clear eye, and the defensive area of the Japanese army began to be gradually compressed.

As long as the fight continues like this, it is certain that Shark Island will be destroyed again, and it is only a matter of time.
