Chapter 482
"Second master! The south side seems to have done it, and it looks like this posture Ao Ye is not like a feint, but like the main attack. ”
"It's okay, the more urgent the fight on Ao Ye's side, the fewer defenders there will be on our side. There are still ten minutes left for the troops to be ready. Our marines took the lead this time, and they all took care of Lao Tzu. Don't make a fuss, I can't raise my head when I get to the big brother, and you don't want to be happy. ”
"No! Second master, all right, the brothers of the Marine Corps are waiting for this day. ”
When the time came, the Marines began to land in small boats. The north wall faced the Yangtze River, and the Marines jumped down to the beachhead and began to land on knee-deep water. The artillery fire in the south of the city intensified, and the Marines found cover after landing.
Li Xiu looked at his pocket watch, when the second hand came to one o'clock. Li Xiu yelled: "Release." ”
Countless rockets flew towards Jinling City with a strange roar dragging a long tail flame, and the tall city tower at the north gate was the key target. It's not because the castle tower is in the way, but because the castle tower is too tall.
The huge recoil caused the hull of the five-masted ship to drift backwards for several meters. Li Xiu's face was expressionless, just holding a telescope and looking at the Jinling City Tower opposite.
The sound of the explosion was like a thunderclap, and the resulting air wave made people feel suffocated. Li Xiu was inside the telescope and really saw the shock wave. The tall and thick Jinling city wall jumped up at once. Broken bricks and tiles rose into the sky, and many bricks and tiles even flew to the Yangtze River and fell into the river like rain.
Rockets didn't have a chance to start, and several rockets flew over the walls and exploded into the city. But a few rockets still hit the city wall, and when the smoke cleared, Li Xiu found that the tall city tower suddenly became shorter. The swarthy Jinling city wall looks like an old lady with missing teeth.
The demolition team rushed forward as soon as possible, and rushed into the smoke before it cleared. Thirty pounds of explosives were stuffed into the big hole opened one by one, and more than 20 were stuffed. After lighting the fuse, the sappers ran back like crazy.
"Boom!" This explosion can only be described as earth-shattering. The tall city wall flew up directly, and the entire Jinling City was like an earthquake. The smoke and dust soared hundreds of meters high, and there were still some people screaming in the sky. This scene is not much different from the end of the world.
"The walls have been blown up, rush with me!" The Marine Corps Captain shouted, drew his revolver, and rushed forward first. Before the smoke cleared, they rushed in. By the time they reappeared, they had already arrived in Jinling City.
There was no Southern Ming army nearby, not a single one. Not to mention the Southern Ming Army, the houses facing the city wall have collapsed. The stout willow tree fell to the ground, and a human thigh hung from the canopy.
"Hurry up and send the two regiments of the second division up, send blue fireworks to tell the eldest brother that we have attacked."
"No!"
Scar took his platoon and cautiously searched forward. He was carrying a Japanese knife in his hand, which was a gift from Li Hao. The standard armament of the Marine Corps was a revolver and a dagger, and there was no such thing as a sword. Scar always had to carry a knife when he fought, and he felt that this thing was the best weapon for close combat.
There was silence in the streets, and it felt eerie, as if the distant artillery fire was in another world. There is only the changing scenery in his eyes, and the sound of his own heavy breathing.
The two groups of soldiers walked against the wall, looking out for each other's inattention.
The "bang" gunfire made everyone's hairs stand on end, and the gunfire was loud for a while. Everywhere in the dark corners, there are things that look like human shapes. Nervous, really fucking nervous. The recruits felt their mouths so dry that their hearts felt like they were about to pop out of their mouths. I felt that my breathing was frighteningly loud, but the people next to me couldn't hear it.
"! Shoot again, Lao Tzu will kill you first. The squad leader kicked his recruits. There was someone just now, but it was just a little old man. If this person can be a soldier, it is estimated that the Nanjing Forbidden Army will also die.
"No! Monitor. The recruit swallowed with difficulty, and for the first time he felt that the saliva actually pulled his throat.
"Drink saliva! See clearly before shooting. Scar didn't blame the recruit, the recruit must have been nervous to death at this time, and he said that he estimated that the recruit would be scared to death, and the chance of making a mistake would be higher after a while.
"No!" The recruit panicked and unscrewed the military kettle and poured half of the kettle into it in one go.
"Platoon commander, do you want to ......!" Before he could finish speaking, a bullet slit his throat with precision. The rest of the words can no longer be said in this life, the military kettle fell to the ground, and the water inside gurgled out.
"Hidden!" Scar shouted, and a platoon of men crawled to wherever they could take cover.
Almost at the same time, several bullets had already hit the place where the person had just been standing. The wall tiles were shattered and flew wildly, and the ricochet refracted to the ground, creating a little spark on the bluestone.
"In the attic across the street." Scar glanced at the loud roar.
Several veterans leaned against the corner of the wall and began to shoot at the attic, and bullets kept coming down from the attic.
Scar reached out and flipped over the wall. Under the cover of the wall, the cat ran forward, and his ears were full of chaotic gunshots. "Bang" and "bang" are heavy and muffled is the single-shot gun of the Jiangnan Forbidden Army, and the sound of "pop" and "bang" is the revolver rifle of the Liao soldiers. With the advantage of the rate of fire, the Jiangnan Forbidden Army was so pressed that it couldn't raise its head, and from time to time there were screams.
But the "bang" and "bang" sound did not decrease at all, and it seemed that there were a lot of people in the attic opposite.
It was easy to run under the attic, and Scar felt that he couldn't hear anything. With the sound of his own heavy breathing, he pulled out a grenade, thinking that it was wrong to simply wrap the bag containing the grenade. Pull the strings and count them twice before throwing them up. Then he squatted in the corner with his head in his hands!
"Boom!" With an explosion, the attic was torn apart. Scar felt someone tap him on the shoulder, and without even thinking about the six bullets from the revolver in his hand, he shot out. The sword was crossed in front of his chest, ready to fight him.
"Damn! Bad luck! "There wasn't even a ghost behind him, but there was a broken arm on the ground, and a whole hand on it.
Pulling his shoulder, he actually had a fucking ear hanging on it. On a small tree not far away, something hung like intestines. A pack of grenades, it's cool to use.
With a stroke of the hand, the brothers in the platoon covered each other's advance. Scar sat down in the corner and began to load the revolver. As soon as I loaded the bullets, I saw blue fireworks exploding in the air, which was so fucking beautiful.
"Be careful, watch out for high places." Scar admonished and continued his assault along the streets towards the city.
In the gap behind them, groups of soldiers of the Second Division poured inside. The gates were blown open by sappers, and more people rushed in along them. The happiest thing was that the wagons pulling mortars also rushed in, and the gunners of the dog day carried the barrels and gun mounts and began to look for suitable mortar positions. The reckoning soldier climbed to the city wall and looked at the targets in the city with binoculars in hand.
"! The north gate was blasted open! Ao Canghai saw the blue fireworks in the sky, and his head smoked with anger. He hit the gates with Molotov cocktails, and they caught fire. But for a while, the city gate was not burned. It was easy to blow up the city gate with one shot, but I didn't expect the south gate guard to be shrewd like a ghost.
These bastards found countless pieces of furniture, firewood, and grass and piled them up in the caves of the city gates, and then set them on fire.
The fire inside and outside the cave of the city gate was blazing, not to mention people. His mother's grandson monkey can't get by!
Ao Ye was so anxious that his head was smoking, but he couldn't get in. Counting on the copper cannon to blast open the city wall, it is estimated that it will take a day tomorrow.
Soon, the one who set the fire became the one who put out the fire. Whether it's sand or water, fill it with your life. In order to cover the brothers who were fighting the fire, the artillery brothers beat the city wall into a sea of fire. The shells were fired continuously, and the barrels were almost red. The artillerymen had to water the barrels while firing.
