Chapter 591: Shelling Japanese Sharpshooters
However, after the Japanese machine gunners on the opposite side of the county building opened fire on this side, the Chinese army on the opposite side of the county building also began to suppress fire, some machine gunners suppressed the Japanese machine gunners from the roof, and the two sides did not give in to each other after this fight, not only the machine guns of both sides were put into battle, but other soldiers also used rifles to shoot at each other, and the Chinese army also used grenadiers and mortars to suppress the Japanese army, and soon the mountain artillery and large-caliber howitzers of the Chinese army also began to exert their might, and one shell after another fell on the Japanese positions in the county building and downstairs, A series of explosions rang out on the roof of the county building, on the exterior walls and around the downstairs.
After several rounds of shelling, the Japanese position downstairs of the county building has basically become a ruin, most of the Japanese soldiers in the trench were killed by the Chinese mortar shells and grenadier projectiles, although the Japanese army hid two mountain guns on the first floor, but the Japanese mainly used it to deal with the armored vehicles of the Chinese army, so its firing angle was adjusted very small, it could only be used for flat fire, it could not hit the mortar and grenadier soldiers of the Chinese army, and because it was hiding on the first floor, the shells of the Chinese army could not hit it.
After half an hour of shelling, the entire exterior wall of the county building has been unrecognizable, especially on the roof, there are several places that have been blown up by shells, but the damage to the entire exterior wall is not large, although there are large and small craters on it, but the problem is not big, its wall is still quite solid.
This large-scale firing between the two sides ended with the Chinese army gaining the upper hand, the Japanese were the defenders, and they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of weapons, and it was simply self-inflicted humiliation to want to argue with the Chinese army.
In fact, the Japanese still have a heavy artillery brigade that has not been used, and the Japanese also know that this heavy artillery brigade cannot be used. Once it is used, it is time to perish. Because the Chinese army will soon find out where it is, the Chinese air force will take off fighters from the aircraft carrier in the shortest possible time and blow it into a batch of scrap metal.
Although the Japanese never used this heavy artillery brigade. However, the Chinese army has been looking for its traces, and reconnaissance planes have been circling over Fukuoka all day long, but until now, the Chinese side has not discovered the location of the Japanese heavy artillery brigade.
The gunfire and artillery outside stopped, which made Xu Zhisong and the others breathe a sigh of relief, the two sides fought each other just now because of them, but this can't be blamed on them, who let the Japanese touch them from the outside?
Under Xu Zhisong's greeting, everyone went to the second floor of the newly occupied shop, and the door panel of the shop downstairs had collapsed. The situation in the whole shop pΓΉ fell into the sight of the Japanese soldiers diagonally opposite, only here is relatively safe, they are ready to blast the wall here, there is no Japanese army next door, the four Japanese soldiers who copied from the outside were killed, according to the deployment of the Japanese army in these shops, generally there are only four people in each shop, if this is the case, there should be no one next door. You can't go outside or downstairs. Therefore, it can only be blasted on the second floor.
The explosion was very smooth, and the occupation of the next shop by the soldiers was also very smooth, only a small door was opened on the first floor, and the situation inside the shop was not completely exposed to the sight of the Japanese troops diagonally opposite. Xiao Kou, who had gone downstairs first, stepped forward to close the door, but at this moment, Xiao Kou's head suddenly spurted out a stream of blood. Immediately afterward, gunshots rang out from the county building diagonally opposite.
Xu Zhisong, who was behind Xiao Kou, was shocked and immediately leaned against the wall and shouted: "Don't come down, don't come down." Return to the second floor! β
Xiao Yi, who was on the stairs, exclaimed, "It's a Japanese sniper? β
Xu Zhisong gasped and said: "Calling them sharpshooters is too exalted to them, at most sharpshooters with better marksmanship." Why, Lao Tzu actually forgot what the platoon commander said, the Japanese have at least three sharpshooters in the county building, tell the brothers to pay attention, hide first, go and don't stand by the window and behind the door! β
Everyone else retreated to the second floor, leaving Xiao Yi to cover Xu Zhisong at the staircase, Xu Zhisong slowly squatted down, put the rifle on the ground, then knelt on the ground and reached over to grab Xiao Kou's feet and drag his body over.
The blood had already flowed all over the ground, Xu Zhisong turned Xiao Kou's body over, and then carried him on his shoulder, carried a rifle and turned around and walked up to the second floor, the soldiers all watched with tears in their eyes Xu Zhisong put Xiao Kou's body on the bed on the second floor, and sorted out Xiao Kou's remains.
The soldiers stood on the second floor silently looking at Xiao Kou's remains and took off their helmets, Xu Zhisong said in a deep voice: "Salute!" β
The soldiers raised their hands together and saluted, and three minutes later, Xu Zhisong came out again: "The salute is over!" β
Walking to the bed, Xu Zhisong reached out and ripped off the soldier nameplate on Xiao Kou's neck and held it in the palm of his hand, the nameplate still had Xiao Kou's residual body temperature, he turned around and stuffed the soldier nameplate into a special cowhide bag around his waist, and then looked at the soldiers and said: "The Japanese sharpshooters are too much of a threat to us, if we don't destroy them, we will be restrained everywhere next, and we will be shot if we are not careful, so I decided that our main task next is to find the Japanese sharpshooters, Then kill them, twist and potato, the marksmanship of the two of you is the most accurate here for us, and the main task of dealing with the Japanese sharpshooters depends on you, we will assist from the side, what do you think? β
"Yes, squad leader!" Potato and Twist replied immediately.
Under Xu Zhisong's arrangement and deployment, two people were left to guard the store to prevent the Japanese next door from calling, and the others were scattered in the back store, and began to sneak close to the hidden places of the doors and windows to look for the traces of the Japanese sharpshooters in the county building diagonally opposite.
For the next period of time, the soldiers had been hiding in the shadows looking for the Japanese sharpshooters, and the time passed slowly, and it was already noon, and the soldiers each took out their marching dry food to cushion their stomachs.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Zhisong asked the soldiers everywhere about the results they were looking for, the process was undoubtedly long and anxious, but Xu Zhisong and others spent these hours in vain, the soldiers successively found the location of two hidden Japanese sharpshooters, one of the two Japanese sharpshooters was in the middle window of the third floor in front of the county building, and the other was facing the window on the far right of the fourth floor, which should be that he killed Xiao Kou.
Xu Zhisong decided to deal with the two Japanese sharpshooters first, he convened potatoes and twist, arranged tasks for them separately, and solved one each, he thought that the two must shoot at the same time, otherwise killing one of them will inevitably alarm the other, only two people shoot at the same time to be safe, but twist and potato disagree, they think that if they shoot at the same time, the time is not easy to grasp, and this will cause them psychological pressure, and finally Xu Zhisong still agreed to let them play freely.
The two were on the second floor of the two shops, and Tudou fired first, and his target was the Japanese sharpshooter in the middle window of the third floor of the front of the county building. After the twist fired, he also killed the Japanese sharpshooter who killed Xiao Kou very smoothly.
However, at this moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out from the roof of the fourth floor of the county building, and after Twist shot the Japanese sharpshooter, he revealed his position, and he didn't have time to retract his body, and a bullet pierced his head.
"Twist, twist! Squad leader, the twist is dead! Xiao Yi screamed and dragged Twist's body away from the window.
"Bang!" "Bang"
At this time, Tudou also found the Japanese sharpshooter hiding on the roof of the fourth floor of the county building, and immediately shot, but because he shot in a hurry, he didn't hit, and the Japanese sharpshooter immediately returned fire, and he also shot in a hurry, next to the window where Tudou was hiding, and the two shot at each other like this, and neither of them even thought about changing positions.
Xu Zhisong, who hurriedly finished reading the twist corpse, shouted to the potato with a blue face: "Potato, drag him down!" β
At this time, the mortar driver Xiao Ai came over and said to Xu Zhisong: "Squad leader, I see the position of the Japanese, I have a way to kill him!" β
"What, you have a way? What's the solution? Xu Zhisong immediately asked.
"With the mortar on my back!" Xiao Ai patted the mortar barrel on the back and said, "We can open a skylight on the roof of the second floor, set up the mortar on the second floor, remove the roof tiles and planks to reveal a skylight, and the shells can fly out, in my experience, I believe that one shot can kill him!" β
Xu Zhisong immediately made a decision after thinking for a while, "Okay, just do what you want, let's help remove the roof tiles and planks, and you set up the artillery cannon to get it done as quickly as possible, so as not to let the Japanese change their position!" β
"Understood!"
Under Xu Zhisong's organization, several fighters quickly took action, they took out the pliers they had used before to remove the iron nails nailed to the wooden planks on the roof, removed the wooden planks one by one, and removed the tiles, and soon the roof revealed a huge skylight hole.
At this time, Xiao Ai had already set up the mortar, and adjusted the shelling Zhuyuan according to the position of the Japanese sharpshooter in his memory, and he had already connected the fuses to the three shells.
But as soon as QiΔ was ready, Xiao Yi ran over and said, "I just looked, the Japanese are still shooting potatoes there!" β
"Good! Xiao Ai, do it immediately, knock out all three shells, and strive for a success! Xu Zhisong said immediately.
Xiao Ai nodded, he picked up a mortar shell and put it into the muzzle, suddenly let go, the shell fell, and it shot out with a tom, he shot out two other shells in a row, and after three screams, three explosions came "boom, boom, boom".
"How, how? How was the effect, were the Japanese killed? Xu Zhisong immediately asked.
Ge Chuan, who was in charge of observation, turned around and shouted: "The roof wall of the fourth floor where the Japanese are hiding has been blown up, and his body has fallen downstairs!" β
"Okay, great!" Xu Zhisong was very excited, he hugged Xiao Ai and kissed him fiercely, and others also ravaged Xiao Ai one after another. (To be continued......)
