Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Japanese Siege
Among some other people, there are gray-haired villagers, honest men and women from small families, and these people are the epitome of thousands of Chinese people.
Looking at these sincere faces, listening to the unpretentious but shocking words, Fang Xiaoyu only felt that his heart was agitated, his eyes were a little moist, he secretly clenched his fists, and his heart was silent, I have thousands of simple sons and daughters in China, and the Chinese people with Yanhuang blood can be bullied by just barbarians and Japanese robbers, one day, the glorious Huaxia that has been inherited for 5,000 years will burst out with the light that makes the world look at it and stand in the east of the world.
During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, China paid 30 million lives for this, and countless people with lofty ideals wrote unyielding chapters with their own blood and their lives.
Fang Xiaoyu slowly picked up a steamed bun and handed it to the little guy with a runny nose, gently touched the messy hair and said, "Little guy, it's delicious, grow up and fight devils early!" ”
At the beginning of the red sun, outside Tengxian County, more than a dozen cannons were lined up side by side, and I saw a Japanese officer with an adjutant knife in his hand, with a gloomy face, a cruel sneer flashing in his eyes, he looked down at the watch on his wrist, and suddenly pulled out the adjutant's knife and waved it fiercely towards Tengxian County in front of him, and roared in his mouth: "Open the cannon." ”
Suddenly, a dozen or so cannons that had long been shelled into the chamber let out a deafening roar, spraying dazzling firelight.
One by one, the cannonballs roared out and fell into the city, and suddenly the city was like the end of the world, and every shell fell in a mess, and the buildings collapsed one after another, and many innocent people died tragically in the artillery fire.
As soon as the mountains shook, a cannonball exploded on the city wall, and how could the masonry city wall withstand such a bombardment, and a small gap immediately appeared.
Fortunately, the city wall of Tengxian County is extraordinary, extremely thick, even if the Japanese artillery bombards it, there is no way to collapse the city wall, at most there is a gap.
While eating breakfast, Fang Xiaoyu had not yet removed his hand from the little guy's head when he heard the whistling sound of a cannonball breaking through the air.
Just hearing the whistling sound, Fang Xiaoyu reacted, and shouted immediately: "The enemy attacked, all lie down for me!" ”
While speaking, Fang Xiaoyu pressed the little guy in front of him and his father to the ground.
Soon a cannonball exploded from a distance of 100 meters, and the earth shook, and the gravel and dust fell from the air, and many of the gravel fell on everyone's bodies.
Several people were blown up, and their bones were blown up on the spot, their severed limbs flew sideways, and a severed arm fell in front of Fang Xiaoyu.
Looking at that cruel situation, Fang Xiaoyu's heart couldn't help but tighten, if the shell landed near him, even if he had great ability, he would probably be blown to pieces.
Lying on the ground, Fang Xiaoyu looked around, only to see that a few of his subordinates were worthy of being veteran oils, and they all found a place to avoid the shelling.
It is said that recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of guns, this is not true at all, the roar of the cannon is indeed terrifying, but for veterans, in fact, as long as they are calm and do not know how to dodge like the recruits but run around during the shelling, the possibility of being killed by the shelling is very small.
Wang Hu was sticking to the corner of the walled city at this time, stuffing the steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, and said to Fang Xiaoyu: "Squad leader, come here, it's safe enough." ”
Indeed, Wang Hu is very good at choosing a place, he hides in the corner of the walled city, even if it is bombarded by the heavy artillery of the Japanese army, without two or three shells in one place, I am afraid that it will not be able to collapse the extremely strong corner.
The people who came to deliver food all around were lying on the ground one by one because of Fang Xiaoyu's reminder, and they were in a state of panic at this moment, obviously frightened by the sudden shelling.
In fact, the reaction of these people is also reasonable, not to mention these ordinary people, even Fang Xiaoyu was taken aback.
Fortunately, Fang Xiaoyu's psychological quality was not bad, and after reacting, his expression regained calm, and he said to the people around him: "Big guy, get out of here quickly, or the Japanese army will attack soon, it's too dangerous for you to stay here." ”
Seeing these people hunched away, Fang Xiaoyu listened attentively, jumped up immediately, like a gust of wind, and ran over a distance of hundreds of meters to the corner of the city in a blink of an eye.
At this moment, a cannonball fell, and it was blowing up the place where Fang Xiaoyu was staying before, and the original cart was blown into flying fragments on the spot.
Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaoyu was afraid for a while, fortunately he ran fast, if he was so late, he was afraid that he would have no bones.
Not to mention that Fang Xiaoyu was afraid, even Hou Ming, Cheng Laoshi, and Bai Xiucai were all stunned when they saw it, their squad leader was really blessed with a great fate, and he walked before the ghost gate.
Leaning against the corner of the wall, the roar in his ears came from time to time, and the entire Tengxian County was shrouded in artillery fire.
Woo, suddenly there was a whistling sound of a plane breaking through the air in the air, Fang Xiaoyu looked up and suddenly his expression changed, and he exclaimed: "Plane bombing!" ”
Compared with artillery strikes, aircraft bombing has a certain purpose and accuracy.
Fang Xiaoyu saw with his own eyes a bomber suddenly pull down the plane, and several bombs fell, leveling a fire point exposed to the pilot's line of sight on the spot.
Several soldiers and a machine gun formed a point of fire was destroyed like this, and there was definitely more than one position in the whole city that was blown up by name.
Wang Hu's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself: "Grandma, this iron bird is too powerful, and I don't know how many brothers will be killed." ”
Without air supremacy, it can even be said that there is not even a single antiaircraft machine gun capable of threatening the opposing side, and the Japanese bombers completely unscrupulously lowered their flight altitude to bomb, and even after some bombers dumped the bombs they carried, instead of leaving, the machine guns opened fire, and many frightened civilians were hit, and the scene was extremely miserable.
At least Fang Xiaoyu saw with his own eyes that an old man was shot by an airborne machine gun, and the whole person was cut off by a fire snake, and his upper body fell to the ground, crawling miserably and wailing for several seconds before he lost his breath.
Several of Fang Xiaoyu's subordinates were frightened, Chen Kui shouted, and wanted to hold the machine gun to deal with the little devil's plane, but Fang Xiaoyu jumped forward and held it down, slapped the other party's head and shouted: "What are you crazy about, don't drag the brothers if you want to die!" ”
If Chen Kui really opened fire with a machine gun, the probability of shooting down the bomber was almost zero, but the chance of suffering retaliatory strafing from the bomber was 100 percent.
Once targeted by the bombers, Fang Xiaoyu didn't think that a few of them would be able to stop it, and it would be strange if they didn't lose a few lives.
The artillery and planes bombed for more than an hour, and at the moment when the shelling stopped and the planes left, a rapid whistle sounded in the midst of the ruins, and it was the platoon commander Chen Kai who blew the whistle to gather the men.
Fang Xiaoyu's expression changed slightly when he heard the hurried whistle, and he waved his big hand at Chen Kui and Wang Hu and said, "You two bring guys to follow me to support the platoon commander and them, and the others will nail me here, and I will definitely not be able to let the little devil break through from us." ”
Saying that, Fang Xiaoyu said to Bai Xiucai: "Bai Xiucai, this place will be handed over to you, even if you die, you are not allowed to lose your position." ”
Bai Xiucai immediately saluted and said, "Rest assured, the squad leader, the people are in the position!" ”
At this moment, a rapid gunfire came from not far away, Fang Xiaoyu only heard the position of the gunfire and knew that it was the key defense of the company, and the company commander Dong Wu directly led a platoon of men and horses to guard there.
Now it seems that there should be a problem with the city wall guarded by Dong Wu, otherwise it would not have been possible to call in reinforcements with such a rapid whistle.
Holding a machine gun directly, Fang Xiaoyu hunched his waist and rushed away, and behind him, Chen Kui and Wang Hu also followed Fang Xiaoyu with a smart face.
Turning around a high-rise building, Fang Xiaoyu happened to see a section of the city wall collapsing not far away, and above the ruins, more than a dozen or twenty figures were turning their guns outwards one by one, shooting desperately to stop the Japanese attack.
Hundreds of Japanese soldiers outside the city scattered in a straggler line, and at first glance there were Japanese soldiers everywhere, and the momentum was extremely amazing.
These Japanese soldiers have extremely high tactical literacy, never walk in a straight line when running, and constantly change their body shapes and directions, making it difficult for people to lock their figures.
