Under the cover of the barrage, the devils and puppet soldiers who rushed over suddenly fell down in pieces, screaming one after another.

However, the enemy's attacks did not stop because of this, but became more violent, like a raging tide, one wave after another.

Some of the devil grenadiers hid in the charging crowd, occasionally firing grenades at the blocking positions of the Dragon's Tooth Regiment.

These devil grenadiers are all elite veterans of the 1st Division and the 26th Division, and they have rich experience in actual combat, so they are very accurate, and almost every shell comes down, there will be a general-purpose machine gunner who is shooting is hit by the explosion and killed or injured on the spot.

Scarface quickly noticed this, put down the general-purpose machine gun in his hand, snatched a Mauser Type 98 manual rifle from one of the riflemen, and pulled the bolt while shouting at the top of his voice, "Sharpshooter, kill that damn grenadier for me!" ”

With that, he leaned behind a trench and aimed his Mauser rifle at a Japanese grenadier who was firing artillery.

Lock on to the target, pull the trigger, and with a whoosh, a hot 7. The 92mm rifle shot out and hit the target in the head with precision.

The devil grenadier was killed instantly, and he fell to the ground, his grenadiers and shells rolling aside.

As more and more Dragontooth Sharpshooters joined the sniper operation, the Heavy also paid attention to the increased fire suppression of the Devil Grenadier.

The casualties of the Devil Grenadier began to increase dramatically, and the suppression of the fire attack on the Dragon's Tooth Regiment was lifted.

On the devil's side, without the effective fire cover of the grenadiers, the attack became more difficult, and under the strong firepower of the dragon's tooth column, there was an advantage in troops, but it was suppressed and could not be played.

As the casualties of the puppet army in front of them became more and more heavy, the casualties of the devils also increased sharply, and the charge lasted for nearly an hour, still being blocked by the danger area of fifty to one hundred meters away from the forward trench.

No matter how much they charged, they could not break through the fire resistance of the defenders, and as the casualties increased, the morale of the attacking troops also dropped rapidly.

In the end, he had to stop the attack, and he retreated very badly.

Due to the artillery fire of the air defense regiment and the first regiment and the tank regiment during the retreat, many wounded devils and puppet soldiers did not have time to take them away, and became the ghosts of the dragon's tooth defenders.

"Commander, the devil's attack has been repelled by us again." In the city, Zheng Yunshan reported to Qiao Youhua excitedly.

At this moment, Zhao Tiezhu, deputy commander of the tank regiment and deputy commander of the cavalry battalion, suddenly strode in from the outside.

Zhao Tiezhu was ordered by Qiao Youhua to take a cavalry company to pick up the flying thunder cannon transport team from the arsenal, and now he successfully completed the task and brought back fifty flying thunder cannons, so he couldn't wait to report to Qiao Youhua.

He came to Qiao Youhua in three steps and two steps, stood up and saluted: "Commander, the flying thunder cannon has arrived!" ”

Qiao Youhua was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately said to Zheng Yunshan: "Yunshan, you immediately lead the people of the guard regiment to quietly transport these fifty flying thunder cannons to a regiment in the north of the city, quickly place them, and wait for the devil's next attack, so as to give them a head-on blow!" ”

Zheng Yunshan hurriedly saluted and took the order. Qiao Youhua said to Zhao Tiezhu again: "Deputy Commander Zhao, it's been hard all the way, you and your cavalry go down to rest first." ”

"Yes! Thank you for your kindness! Zhao Tiezhu also stood up and saluted, and turned around and left with great joy in his heart.

Qiao Youhua turned around and picked up the telephone that went straight to the headquarters of the first regiment in the north of the city, and said, "I'm Qiao Youhua, let your deputy brigade commander answer the phone!" ”

Liu Yidao's voice soon came from the other end of the phone, "Commander, what instructions do you have?" ”

"The first batch of flying thunder cannons made by the arsenal has arrived, a total of fifty, I have asked the guard regiment to send it to you, and then it's up to you!"

Liu Yidao looked at it for a while, and was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward and said: "Yes, please rest assured, Commander, to watch a good show, and definitely let the little devil attack next time, there will be no return!" It's really good, now the devil's offensive is very fierce, and the casualties of the troops are quite large, and this batch of flying thunder cannons is urgently needed to boost morale and hit the enemy! ”

Qiao Youhua smiled and said, "Then I'll sit firmly on Diaoyutai and look at your watch." ”

After speaking, he hung up the phone, and after that, Qiao Youhua sat in the headquarters for a while, then left with a few guards, and rushed straight to the headquarters of a regiment at the north gate.

…………

As expected, after an interval of about half an hour, the Japanese puppet army, unwilling to lose, launched an attack again, the old-fashioned tactic, first a round of artillery fire, and then thousands of devils surrounded the puppet army and launched a charge.

In the past half hour, fifty flying thunder cannons, with the assistance of the soldiers of the guard regiment, have all been quietly placed on the positions of the battalions and companies of a regiment.

Liu Yidao and Scarface organized the gunners to take their places and prepare to open fire.

Qiao Youhua also came to the headquarters of the first regiment, waiting for the devil's attack.

When the devil's attack officially began, accompanied by Scarface, Liu Yidao and others, he left the regimental headquarters and came directly to the north gate city wall, intending to watch the next offensive and defensive battles here.

Due to the fact that he received a few shells from the devil's shelling just now, the head of the North Gate City is still filled with gunsmoke.

Standing in the smoke of gunpowder scattered everywhere, Qiao Youhua took the lead in raising the telescope, only to see that outside his own defensive position under the city, thousands of Japanese soldiers and two devil cavalry, lined up in a huge straggler formation, in an area of hundreds of meters, swarming all over the mountains.

"Tell the battalions and companies to defend the troops, the most effective killing distance of the flying thunder cannon is within 100 meters, don't rush to fire, let all the soldiers calm down, let the devil enter within 100 meters, and then all the flying thunder cannons, light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and rifles will fire together again, and give them a fierce head-on blow!" Qiao Youhua held the binoculars and instructed Liu Yidao behind him.

Liu Yidao immediately sent someone to convey the order.

After receiving Qiao Youhua's instructions, the officers and soldiers of the regiment held their breath and hid in the trench fortifications, waiting for the devils and the puppet army to approach step by step.

In the suffocating waiting, time passed quickly, and after about five minutes or so, a large number of devils and puppet soldiers finally entered the 100-meter absolute kill range of the flying thunder cannon.

The officers and men of the regiment, who had already received the order, immediately stood up from their trenches one after another, and all kinds of weapons opened fire one after another.

The most shocking thing was the fifty unconscionable guns that had been waiting for a long time, with a caliber of more than 200 millimeters, and one after another let out an earth-shattering roar as the gunners ignited.

Under the flickering firelight, a group of explosive bags weighing more than ten kilograms flew out in a parabolic shape, smashing towards the attacking crowd of devils and puppet soldiers.

When they were about to hit the ground, or smashed on the bodies of the devils and puppet soldiers, the explosive packs fired by those flying thunder cannons suddenly exploded violently.

The explosive package weighing more than ten catties exploded, and the power was much greater than that of ordinary artillery shells, and in addition to the high explosives, there were also a large number of iron nails, steel fragments, and even steel balls in the explosives package of the flying thunder cannon.

As the violent shock wave spread out, it suddenly caused great damage to the devils and puppet soldiers who were charging.

They fell like wheat blown by a gust of wind, and fell down in large swaths.

Everywhere the raging shock wave went, the devil puppet army screamed and fell.

Fifty explosive packets weighing more than a dozen kilograms fell into the devil crowd one after another, and a violent explosion occurred, instantly enveloping the area in front of the dragon's tooth group with the devil attacking crowd as the center, and an area of several hundred meters in radius.

Clouds of smoke rose into the sky with a violent explosion.

In addition, the officers and soldiers on the dragon's tooth position also opened fire one after another, causing double damage to the devils and the puppet army.

It's just that this round of unconscionable cannon bombardment, the attack of the devil and the puppet army, because of the devastating blow, collapsed in an instant. More than half of the more than 1,000 puppet troops who were engaged in the attack were killed or wounded on the spot.

The entire front of the position was covered with rivers of blood, corpses were strewn all over the field, and there were disgusting stumps and broken arms, fragments of weapons, and even the skulls and internal organs of some devils and puppet soldiers flying everywhere with the blast wave of the explosion.

For about more than 300 days, the remnants of the puppet army immediately turned around and ran, no matter how the devils in the rear supervised the war reprimanded, it was useless, what kind of weapon is this, it is so powerful, a round of bombardment down, nearly a thousand people were killed, and a fart was played.

The joint command of the 1st Division and the 26th Division.

A Japanese war-overseer officer, with a disgraced face and a panicked expression, ran in, saluted Yokoyama and said, "Your Excellency Commander, it's not good, our second attack has just failed again!" ”

When Isamu Yokoyama and the others heard this, they all changed color slightly, and he immediately stood up and asked, "What?" Failed again, why did you just launch an offensive and fail again? What the hell is going on? ”

The Devil Commander lowered his head and said: "Your Excellency, it is not that the imperial army is incompetent, but because the defenders suddenly used extremely powerful artillery fire of mass destruction, our attacking troops were bombarded with devastating artillery fire, and more than three-quarters of them were killed and wounded on the spot, completely losing their combat effectiveness. ”

"What? Artillery fire of mass destruction? What kind of weapon is this, capable of destroying three-quarters of our attacking forces at once? Isamu Yokoyama's eyes were full of surprise, and he looked at Adachi Twenty-three and Chief of Staff Nakakurume.

Anda Twenty-three has always led his troops to garrison the Mongolian steppe outside the Guanxi and in the northwest, and he has never fought with Qiao Youhua's Dragon Tooth Column at all, so it is naturally impossible to understand the Flying Thunder Artillery.

Just shook his head, but the old devil Nakakurume lowered his head and thought for a while before he raised his head and said, "Division commander, shouldn't the people of China use a flying thunder cannon?" ”
