Volume 3 Step by Step Chapter 292 Ship Attack and Defense (I)

Hearing the explosion in the distance, Lu Kuiyuan didn't care too much, on the way from the first floor to the third floor, he killed very happily, as long as he encountered a room, he threw a grenade into it first, and if there was any movement, he sent someone to put the nozzle in, and first swept by the flamethrower, and directly skewered the Japanese soldiers inside, and the high temperature of several thousand degrees instantly made the devils in the entire space reimburse.

With a flamethrower in hand, coupled with a pistol, submachine gun, and grenade combination, it's enough to sweep everything, go all the way, kill all the way.

When the correspondent found Lu Kuiyuan, Lu Kuiyuan was outside the room on the second floor to deal with the devil soldiers who were trying to resist in vain, and saw the devil soldiers rushing out of the room with flames all over their bodies.

After listening to the correspondent's report, Lu Kuiyuan thought of the strange grenade explosion, and the reason why he would send a team to take the office directly in Dachuanouchi was to capture the commander of the devil alive, increase the morale of the Chinese, and raise the prestige of the new Second Division.

"Did you meet the Chinese?" Lu Kuiyuan frowned and asked.

The correspondent nodded: "Yes, there should be more than ten Chinese"

"Are you followed by Japanese soldiers?" Lu Kuiyuan asked again.

The correspondent blinked, and after a while replied: "There seem to be quite a lot of people in the corridor, and we see the Chinese at the head." ”

"The Chinese who go ahead of the bastard must be hostages"

Lu Kuiyuan slapped his thigh sadly, and when he was a child, he followed his father who was the king of Zhanshan to fight on the front line of robbery, and he had quite rich combat experience, and he judged the danger in a blink of an eye. Lu Kuiyuan had a gloomy face, turned his head, and called Lei Peng to whisper: "You bring people up now, anyone who dares to resist will be wiped out, remember, as long as you are dead, don't live."

Lei Peng nodded, called a flamethrower team, but he hesitated a little in his heart, and looked at Lu Kuiyuan: "What about the Chinese who were captured by the Japanese soldiers?" ”

Lu Kuiyuan gritted his teeth, and his face was gloomy: "I can't care about it so much, I have to be responsible for my officers and soldiers, if I really accidentally get injured and one dies, we will use ten devils to sacrifice their heroic souls."

"Okay"

Lei Peng took the order, and soon came to the staircase, when a sound of footsteps sounded, Lei Peng poked his head out, and just saw Huang Yucheng and others going downstairs. Huang Yucheng raised his hand and shouted bitterly: "Don't shoot, I'm Chinese"

Lei Peng was a first-class powerhouse, and with a sneer, he called the flamethrower team in front of him and pointed ahead.

At this time, Major General Okawauchi excitedly took out a grenade, and Murakami Koizumi and others also unscrewed the lid together and counted silently: "One...... 2. ......"

The volley explosion of the grenade just now wiped out six elite Chinese officers and soldiers disguised as Japanese marines, and now Rear Admiral Okawauchi wants to do it again.

Who knew that Lu Dao Okawauchi and the others had just counted to two in their hearts, and suddenly, a fire dragon erupted from Lei Peng's hiding place, and the strong high temperature suddenly plunged a group of traitors and devils into a sea of fire.

After the fire dragon was sprayed, Lei Peng just wanted to lead people to rush up and greet him with a submachine gun, when he heard a violent explosion, and saw the flesh and blood fragments flying from the stairs, which made Lei Peng frightened, and hurriedly retracted his body, saying that the Japanese had committed suicide? It's also good to save wasting submachine gun bullets.

When Lei Peng went up to check, whether it was the traitor in front or the devil hiding behind, after burning first and then exploding, they were all unrecognizable, so they were not miserable. However, Lei Peng still recognized him from the rank of Major General Okawauchi as the person he was looking for on this trip.

When Lu Kuiyuan led his men to kill Major General Okawa Uchidenqi, commander of the Japanese Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai, the artillery regiment of the New Second Division ushered in the most arduous blocking battle, and the Japanese Navy's ship group headed by the ironclad cruiser "Izumo" was bombarding the artillery positions of the New Second Division with naval guns.

After learning that he had submitted a plan for counterattacking the Shanghai Concession and gathering and annihilating the stubborn Japanese enemy, Wu Ming immediately made targeted arrangements and sent the first battalion and heavy artillery battalion of the division's artillery regiment to a fortification near Yangshupu and the Huangpu River as soon as possible.

"Boom-"

Another shell fell on the side of the fortification, although it did not hit the building, but the huge earthquake still caused a large piece of cement to fall on the roof, revealing the steel bars bundled together, Lieutenant Colonel Luo Changling, the commander of the artillery regiment of the new Second Division, held a telescope and looked at the Japanese warships rampant on the Huangpu River, frowning.

Due to the poor strength of the Chinese navy, Japan did not station its capital ships in China, and the flagship of the Third Fleet, the Izumo, was still an old armored cruiser from the Russo-Japanese War. In addition to this, the Third Fleet had two light cruisers, eight destroyers, and the others were river gunboats.

At this time, the group of ships approaching the Huangpu River from the mouth of the Yangtze River made all kinds of thrilling evasive maneuvers on the river, dodging the shells fired by the 0-mm and 150-mm heavy guns of the heavy artillery battalion of the New Second Division.

"Bang-"

Another shell from the heavy artillery position hidden in the fortifications hit a gunboat directly, and the gunboat bridge caught fire, spun on the surface of the river, and there was a cheer from the artillery position.

Luo Changling put down the binoculars, was very excited, waved his fist and said to Chen Li, the deputy head of the regiment next to him: "Niang Xipi, if you continue to fight like this, the Izumo will also sink Lao Tzu." ”

Luo Changling's words can only boost morale, with the current configuration of the artillery regiment of the new Second Division, 0 mm and 150 mm howitzers can also hit gunboats, laying ships, small destroyers and the like, and the destroyers of thousands of tons are already very reluctant, not to mention the "Izumo" ironclad ship with 175 mm thick gunwald armor.

"Bang bangβ€”"

In the thin morning fog, the fires were shining brightly, and two twin Armstrong 3-mm 45-diameter guns, 14 single-mounted Armstrong 15-mm 40-diameter rapid-fire guns, and 12 Armstrong 76-mm 40-diameter rapid-fire guns formed a tight firepower network.

Since the four 150-mm and twelve 0-mm howitzers of the heavy artillery battalion were in well-defended bunkers, the losses were not large, but on the positions of the artillery battalion and company on the other side, a large fire broke out, and seventy or eighty artillerymen, including the commander of the first company, Lieutenant Sun Jiang, fell in a pool of blood at once.

The position of the 1st Artillery Company was quickly surrounded by the flames and smoke of the explosion, followed by the loud sound of ammunition erupting, and black smoke rising layer by layer, and a 100-man stretcher team organized by the Youth Gang hid behind a building 200 meters away on the west side, helplessly looking at the position shrouded in artillery fire.

A single salvo of Japanese naval guns overturned a battalion and a company, and the smoke gradually dispersed under the river breeze, and only more than 20 soldiers stood up on the position of the company, and even then they were all wounded.

Luo Changling's forehead was bruised, he gritted his teeth, and his heart trembled in distress. The artillery can be replenished if it is gone, but the gunner is gone, and it is a fatal blow to the artillery regiment.

"Boom-"

The Japanese warships continued to bombard the fortifications where the heavy artillery battalion was located with a burst of powerful firepower, causing a corner of the building to collapse, and the artillery positions of the other companies were also severely suppressed.

"Regiment commander, why don't I go to the position to supervise the battle now?" Seeing the strong firepower of the Japanese warship, Lieutenant Colonel Chen Li, the deputy commander of the regiment, was anxious, and strode to Luo Changling's side to ask for instructions: "Although we have made some gains, we still need to hold on for a while compared to the goal of this battle."

It turned out that Vice Admiral Hasegawa Kiyoshi, commander of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet, received an urgent telegram from the Marine Corps Command asking for help, and immediately gathered the battleships at the mouth of the Yangtze River and quickly entered the Huangpu River, intending to use powerful naval guns to support the ground, but he did not expect to be attacked head-on.

Just now, when the Third Fleet group turned around Fuxing Island, before they could adjust their formation, they were bombarded and sunk two gunboats by the heavy artillery of the New Second Division.

Seeing that the first salvo of the "Izumo" armored ship achieved good results, Vice Admiral Kiyoshi Hasegawa, commander of the Third Fleet, slowly lowered the binoculars, bowed his head slightly, and said to the captain of the "Izumo" next to him, Michisho Kamaguchi Michisho Osa: "You should use a salvo to destroy Chinese's will to resist...... After one round, the No. 1 position of the Chinese artillery will be reimbursed, and after a few more times, the artillery of the Chinese army will cease to exist. ”

"Hayβ€”"

Michiaki Kamaguchi nodded, agreeing with Lieutenant General Hasegawa's opinion.

Hasegawa Kiyoshi raised his head and looked at the sky, by this time the morning mist had all dissipated, the sky was blue, and then looked at the clock on the wall of the command module, it was already nine twenty o'clock.

Vice Admiral Hasegawa was still pondering the battle situation in the Marine Corps Headquarters building in Shanghai, and from the moment he received a telegram from Rear Admiral Okawauchi asking for help, Hasegawa Kiyoshi began to assemble battleships, but by the time he led the fleet to the Huangpu River, it was already an hour later, and it was not known whether the Okawa Uchidenqi would be able to hold on.

In Hasegawa's view, China's most elite unit was the German armor division that the Nanjing government had asked German advisers to train, and now that the three German armor divisions were basically disabled, it was believed that other reinforcements could not threaten the Marine Corps headquarters building.

At this time, Hasegawa Kiyoshi didn't know that Major General Okawauchi had gone to see Amaterasu.

Lieutenant General Hasegawa raised his head and gave the latest instructions to Kamaguchi Michisho Osa beside him: "Raise the flag, 'Izumo, and fire a salvo at the enemy's second position. With all the ships in full swing, we must clear away the artillery fire that threatens our fleet before 10 o'clock, and order the carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier 'Longxiang, which is cruising in the coastal waters, to dispatch, and at the same time call Okawauchi-kun and ask him to report the latest coordinates. ”

The Japanese army had already numbered the various parts of the concession, so that no matter whether it was windy or rainy, whether it was day or night, it only needed to report the number, and the fleet's artillery fire could deal a heavy blow to the attacking Chinese army.

A few days ago, the 36th, 87th, and 88th Divisions attacked several key fortresses, but they were intercepted by the ships of the Third Fleet, thus inflicting heavy losses on the three German divisions.

"Hail"

Kamaguchi Michizhang bowed and immediately gave the order.
