Chapter 22: The First Blood
Lin Yuan in the Qing army camp was so anxious, that Ye Zhichao just didn't give the order to send troops! At this time, the pouring rain cut off the air support route, and a hundred warriors in the fortress could only rely on small arms and a small number of artillery to fight against an enemy forty times their own!
Chen Fei in the fortress obviously felt that this group of Japanese soldiers was not good at stubble, they formed a positive triangle or inverted triangle charge formation every three people, the whole formation was sparse and dense, and the whole was sparse and clear, avoiding the killing of dense firepower, pressing down and advancing quickly, which was completely different from the movies and TV series he usually watched, no one in the Japanese army shouted, and no one spoke, at the foot of the mountain, more than a dozen artillery pieces were deployed, and the personnel who operated these guns were well-trained, and the shells crossed the charging Japanese army like eyes, Landing inside the fort, in the woods, five Gatling rapid-fire guns fired at the fort in makeshift bunkers piled up with sandbags of branches, used to cover the charging Japanese troops.
Five Gatling guns crossfired, there were almost no dead spots on the fortress wall, Chen Fei and they were pressed by the Gatling rapid-fire cannon and couldn't lift their heads, this kind of cannon uses 20 mm caliber ammunition, one round of ammunition is enough to break a blue brick on the fortress wall, Chen Fei poked his head out of the gap in the shooting, and glanced at the position of the five machine guns, about 1500 meters away from him, this distance is too far, plus it rains heavily, so it is impossible to hit the gunner from the wall.
Chen Fei and the others hid behind the battlements, and when they heard the sound of the artillery stopping, they all knew that the Japanese soldiers had arrived, and the real battle was about to begin!
Chen Fei probed sharply, and saw dozens of Japanese soldiers from a hundred meters away rushing up with ladders, and behind them, hundreds of Japanese soldiers raised their guns and shot at the fortress wall. Chen Fei signaled to his subordinates, grenades, our army is generally equipped with Type 82 handleless grenades, the killing radius is about 15 meters, and the lethality is extremely great.
The marines threw out the grenades from behind the wall stacks, and most of their bombs were thrown at a distance of 50 meters, and the grenades exploded right above the heads of the charging Japanese soldiers, and the grenades exploded in the air so that there was no dead end on the ground, and the warriors of the Imperial Japanese Army were immediately beaten into a sieve.
Of course, the ladder was also blown up, and the follow-up Japanese troops simply rushed to the bottom of the wall and began to climb along the craters on the wall, at this time the various types of machine guns on the fortress rang out, and the dense rain of bullets swept down the Japanese troops who were shooting behind, and the Japanese troops covering behind hurriedly retreated, just when Chen Fei commanded his subordinates to clean up the Japanese troops on the wall, the Japanese artillery rang out.
Chen Fei couldn't help but be taken aback, there were still Japanese soldiers in the city! The first few shells exploded directly outside the wall, and a large amount of shrapnel from the high-explosive grenade directly tore the Japanese troops on the wall to shreds. Before the Marines in the city could dodge, a bomb exploded at the top of the city, and one Marine fell to the ground.
The Marine was hit in the chest by shrapnel, the blood vessels near the heart were cut by the shrapnel, and the blood splattered directly from the chest, and the heart muscle was still working tirelessly, and the tremendous pressure pushed the blood out of the body.
The soldier lost consciousness due to a large amount of blood loss and no blood in his brain, just looking down at the wound, and the soldier closest to him was just about to rush over, Chen Fei grabbed him, because he heard the sound of the next shell approaching, and they watched the soldier be blown to pieces by the Japanese shell!
Finally smell the smell of blood, war, just to die!
Chen Fei felt a sharp pain in his heart, watching his brothers die in front of him, no one could bear such pain!
Chen Fei can't be allowed to be uncomfortable, a bigger crisis has appeared, Chen Fei and their ammunition are running out, the machine gun ammunition is about to run out, how can the remaining dozens of automatic rifles withstand the charge of so many people?
At this moment, a shell exploded on the city wall, and the city wall collapsed with a large breach, accompanied by the high-pitched cheers of the Japanese army!
Once the Japanese army attacked the fortress, these nearly 100 soldiers could only choose to die in battle!
Lin Yuan in the command post of the Qing army kept pacing, those gunshots seemed to be smashed on his heart, the more urgent the situation, the calmer he became, it was one of his strengths, he took a deep breath, and soon, a bold plan was formed in his mind.
At this time, Han Mingguang, the political commissar in command of the Beijing ship, was also anxious; although he already knew the location of the enemy's artillery position, in such extremely bad weather, the carrier-based aircraft could hardly complete the strike above the clouds, and the height of the clouds was only a little more than 200 meters, and it was extremely dangerous for the aircraft to fly at such an altitude.
Xu Feng was cruising in the nearby airspace at this time, and through the integrated battlefield perception system, he also knew the plight of the marines in the Mudodai fortress at this time, and he decided to take a risk and pass through the clouds.
Xu Feng pulled the joystick, slowly passed through the dark clouds, and looked at the lightning flashing around him from time to time, he was not too worried, because the huge metal fuselage of the aircraft is equivalent to an electromagnetic shielding net, which can protect the people in it from lightning, so the biggest threat from lightning is the communication equipment on board, radar, etc., and modern aircraft widely use lightning protection design.
Xu Feng stabilized the flight speed at 450 kilometers per hour, which is neither fast nor slow, if it is too fast, the moment the plane will burrow out of the clouds will not have time to deal with possible accidents, if it is slow, the plane may stall because the wings cannot provide enough lift.
The moment Xu Feng drilled out of the clouds, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, this is too low! He thought to himself, the distance between the plane and the ground at this time was not even a hundred meters!
At such an altitude, if the pilot is not even careful, the pilot does not even have a chance to adjust, and the plane may fall directly to the ground, and the airflow changes violently at this altitude, which is likely to cause the plane to stall, and at this altitude, the pilot does not even have the opportunity to parachute.
Xu Feng immediately flew to the artillery position of the Japanese army, and it rained heavily, so the laser-guided bomb was useless, and the TV guidance was not ideal, so Xu Feng thought of a way that was not a way, and used his superb flying skills to make the bomb move in free fall and blow up directly to the artillery position.
Xu Feng circled over the artillery position for a while, entered the attack position, and dropped six bombs at a distance of 500 meters from the artillery position, this distance is quite inaccurate, because the amount of air resistance is unknown when calculating, but in spite of this, six 500-kilogram bombs are enough to blow up the artillery position.
Xu Feng's attempt was not in vain, a bomb grazed the side and exploded into the shells piled up on the artillery position, and the violent explosion engulfed the artillery position in an instant.
Other bombs fell on the heads of the Japanese attacking troops impartially, and the Japanese suffered heavy casualties, so that the pressure on Chen Fei was suddenly relieved a lot.
Xu Feng saw the success of the attack, a burst of joy in his heart, and hurriedly evacuated the combat airspace, just as he flew over the clouds, he suddenly felt the plane sink downward, Xu Feng felt a chill in his heart, and thought: "It's over, the plane is going to stall!" ”
