Chapter 313 Please give me monthly votes for painting!

On the coast of Arashiyama, a mound that looks a bit like a large grave mound is even more conspicuous. This is the military headquarters of the Japanese Army's Second Army. This is a bunker made of steel components from destroyed merchant ships. In the past,

Over the past few days, the bunker withstood bombings again and again, but there was no damage inside the bunker. txt e-book download**

Perhaps the Japanese army has never learned to defend, but like any army in the world, they always have an instinctive commonality in protecting the command post, which is to provide the command post with the best protection, dozens of steel plates, and hundreds of steel beams.

, coupled with several meters of covering soil, making this bunker the safest place on the entire coast.

In this strong bunker, dozens of staff officers were still arguing. They were still arguing about whether the Chinese army's attack should be a general attack or a feint attack.

"Judging from the intensity of the attack, this is undoubtedly a general attack!"

"What we are facing is China Central Army. It is impossible for them..."

"We must not place our hopes of survival on the internal struggle of the Chinese Army! I demand that the reserve team be dispatched immediately!"

"I agree!"

"I object..."

Amidst the noise of Yinchuan, Osako Shangdou, the commander, just quietly looked at the reports of officers who died in the battle. The officers on these lists were different from the previous reports. They did not die in bombings or at sea.

, but died in the attack of the Chinese Army

Colonel Eitaro Ikeuchi, captain of the 5th Infantry Regiment.

Colonel Taketori Taketomi, captain of the 17th Infantry Regiment.

Major Yoko Akita, captain of the 1st Battalion of the 5th Infantry Regiment.

Major Jun Ikishima, commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 5th Infantry Regiment.

Major Uchidō Rikimori, captain of the 3rd Battalion of the 5th Infantry Regiment.

Captain Sao Tengwen Er, captain of the second battalion of the 17th Infantry Regiment.

Major Okumenosuke, adjutant of the 17th Infantry Regiment.

Colonel Yoshie Ishinosuke, commander of the 47th Infantry Regiment.

Lieutenant Colonel Kensuke Oheda, captain of the 1st Battalion of the 47th Infantry Regiment.

Lieutenant Colonel Sao Tengxin, captain of the third battalion of the 31st Infantry Regiment.

Lieutenant Shozo Ono, leader of the 10th Squadron of the 31st Infantry Regiment.

…

The long list of dead officers made Osako Shangdou's eyes flash with sadness and fierceness. Just at this moment, a simple mén made of wooden boards was pushed over.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the second line of defense was attacked by the China munitions team. It is currently facing our defense line. The main force of the China Army has launched a general offensive..."

"Immediately dispatch the reserve team and order, Commander Tengtian Brigade, to repel the Chinese Army's attack and counterattack the Chinese Army's defense line!"

This is the last usable unit in Osako Shangdou's hands. In the past period, through the weapons salvaged from beached merchant ships and sunken ships, the available troops in his hands have increased to five regiments, and in the China Army's

During the attack, he has already lost one regiment. Apart from the two regiments deployed for defense, only the Tengtian Brigade is the strategic reserve in his hands. Now it is time to invest in the strategic reserve!

In the dark night, a burst of black crowds rushed towards the already boiling position. The swarming Japanese reserve troops instantly reversed the situation of the battle. The brave team who had been fighting to the death were like mantises blocking the car.

The torn defense line may be recaptured by the Japanese army at any time.

"Fire 0 flares!"

After the green flare was fired, Sun Mingxiang turned his head and shouted as he saw more and more Japanese troops swarming towards him. The signal soldier who had been standing next to him with a submachine gun was stunned for a moment.

Then he pulled out three signal tubes from his lower back and pulled the tails of the tubes hard.

Three bright red meteors, one after another, rushed through the dark sky, drawing arc-shaped red lines one after another, puncturing the silence of the night. The flaming red tail of Shumi Group 2

The flames even reflected a red flare in the night sky, which became the final fuse in this battle, causing the battlefield in front of us to burn, roar, and vibrate.

For the Japanese troops who counterattacked from the rear, they did not know what these three red flares meant, but for the artillery of the First Army that had already marked the Japanese positions and attacked Zhuyuan,

However, they knew clearly what this meant. As soon as the signal flare rose into the air, the artillery observers at the front immediately sent a signal to the brigade and division artillery personnel using telephones and radios.

Now is the time to carry forward the powerful artillery fire of the First Army!

"...Carry out a covering shè attack! All the artillery belonging to the army will focus on bombarding the Japanese positions according to the predetermined sight! Eight rounds of rapid shè!"

At the artillery position of two heavy howitzer regiments directly under the army four kilometers away, following this order, the entire artillery position suddenly seemed like a strong wind, and the red flames of dozens of 150 heavy howitzers instantly shone brightly.

The entire night sky was lit up with orange-red cannon flames. At the same time as the orange-red cannon flames lit up the night sky, a strong wind blew up in front of the cannon. The strong wind blew up the floating ash on the ground, and rolled up a cloud of fog along with the cannon flames.

"Fog", and then there was the sound of indistinguishable cannonballs being ejected in a row!

At the same time, the brigade's 75 field artillery, the regiment's 120mm mortar, and the battalion's 81mm mortar all fired shells at the Japanese position at maximum speed. At the moment of the shelling, the entire earth began to tremble.

It started, and then the bombardment never stopped. At this time, everything in the world seemed to be put into a big cowhide drum, and then people outside the drum kept hitting the drum head with heavy hammers.

The sound of artillery was like the thunder of early winter, sweeping across the entire coast! Fireballs from the explosions splashed up in the originally boiling Japanese army positions. At the moment when the fireballs rose into black smoke, the scorching steel fragments roared and cheered towards

Flying around. The 150mm heavy howitzer fired shells that penetrated deeply into the ground before exploding. The smoke column was filled with black color. Such a large-caliber shell

Its power far exceeds that of other field artillery. It can not only blow up the ground, but the steel fragments can kill the enemy. Even people within a few meters of the explosion range will be hit and their internal organs will be shattered!

At this time, the curtain-like night was filled with the harsh and shrieking sounds of different artillery shells. The sharp one was the roar of field artillery across the sky, the dull one was the roar of heavy howitzers, and the dull and slow one was the roar of forced-fire artillery.

For anyone, this is the most magnificent and dazzling picture performed on the coast of Arashiyama!

This picture is a picture that uses steel as a pen, an explosive as a pen, blood as a paint, and the earth as a canvas. This picture is enough to drive anyone crazy, enough to burn everyone.

The passion in a person's heart.

While holding the pen in this painting, the charge began. The officers and soldiers of the fifth brigade, shouting "kill", desperately launched the final attack on the Japanese position. Artillery shells continued to explode in front of their eyes. Occasionally,

All the shell fragments roared into their camp, claiming the lives of several people, but they failed to stop them. The soldiers held their rifles, shouted with red eyes, and launched a charge. Now there is no one left in the world.

Only death can stop them.

But for the newly reinforced Japanese reserve team, their experience was disastrous. When they collided with the Fengyong team, they thought they could easily defeat this "rock bomb night attack team" and then take advantage of it.

When Luàn launched a counterattack to seize the position they lost yesterday, they felt the ground tremble, followed by a continuous roar in the air. It was the roar of artillery shells fired by the artillery group as they flew in the air!

Before they could react, artillery shells like raindrops had already exploded among their infantry ranks! In order to counterattack the Fengyong team and meet the general offensive force of the Chinese Army, the formation of the Japanese reserve force was a dense skirmish line.

Nearly 10,000 Japanese troops were drowned in a cloud of rising flames and gunpowder smoke.

In the fierce flames and gunpowder smoke, the steel fragments dragging the screams of death, with the screams of death, flew around at a high speed of kilometers, and the steel fragments of various formal shapes were torn among the crowd.

A fragment of the Japanese soldier's body was still scattered in the air with full force even after it penetrated a person. While the body was torn apart by the fragment, the Japanese soldiers who were originally preparing to fight back were brutally injured.

Shouting, being knocked to the ground in various strange ways, and even being "thrown" into the sky by the cheers of artillery shells. In the constant explosion of artillery shells, thousands of Japanese lost their lives in an instant.

Compared with the Japanese troops near the position, in the second wave in the rear, the fate of the main force of the Japanese reserve force originally used to counterattack the China Army's general offensive was even more miserable. The 120mm heavy force of the military mortar brigade at the front was

The artillery fire was the lead, and at least at the same time, there were more than 150mm 81mm and 60mm mortars to carry out screen artillery shelling. The screen artillery shelling was carried out with rapid fire, using

Artillery fire divides the enemy. The firing speed of mortars is much faster than that of ordinary artillery. Although its accuracy is average, enough shells often exceed the accuracy. In just minutes, thousands of mortar shells such as

Raindrops are generally sent out.

Although the mortar uses a low-power ammonium ladder bomb, the advantage of the cast iron shell being more fragmented when it explodes has been fully utilized at this time. Accurate shooting sights and accurate firing sights have been measured in advance.

The timing allowed almost all the artillery shells to explode accurately in the middle of the Japanese reserve. After several rounds of shelling, the air-burst bombs that completed the distance setting replaced the high-explosive bombs. The air-burst bombs exploded directly in the air, even more

Let those Japanese soldiers have nowhere to hide!

These Japanese troops, who had never expected to encounter such an intensive fire attack, were swept down by steel fragments like harvesters before they could even think of hiding when they were hit by such unprecedentedly accurate and ferocious bombardment.

Most of it!

The first minute of artillery bombardment was devastating to the Japanese reserves. The long-range howitzers, mountain artillery and field artillery fired shells, sandwiching the Japanese troops in the middle, beating them back and forth.

The mortar troops used the high speed of the mortars to fire shots in a similar machine gun style, squandering the shells over the heads of the Japanese troops, allowing these Japanese troops to experience the most ferocious and deadly artillery fire for the first time.

.

Tengtian, who was commanding the troops to carry out the counterattack in the shelter at the rear, was completely stunned by the scene in front of him. Having experienced the Russo-Japanese War, he could not imagine what kind of firepower this was. In his opinion, this kind of firepower was

It was unimaginable that he had never thought that the firepower of an army of the Chinese Army could exceed that of an army of the Japanese Army! Even the artillery bombardment launched by several armies invested in the Battle of Fengtian during the Russo-Japanese War could not compare with this.

As the shells continued to fall, some officers who were lucky enough to be uninjured lay on the ground or rolled into the crater, shouting hoarsely for their subordinates to take cover. Those well-trained soldiers had gone through the initial panic and confusion.

Overwhelmed, they all lay down on the ground and looked for cover nearby, enduring the enemy's shells rolling the ground around them.

This ferocious bombardment lasted only a few minutes. When the main force of the brigade approached the Japanese position, Wu Peifu, who had been observing the battlefield situation with a telescope, ordered it to stop. From the telescope, he could clearly see that his troops had captured

They overran the Japanese defense line, and while seizing the Japanese defense line, they completely ignored the flanks and attacked the Japanese army in depth.

"Contact the headquarters immediately. Our brigade has seized the Japanese position and controlled the battlefield situation! Establish the headquarters and immediately order the general reserve team to enter the battlefield..."

The stars in the sky blinked with shining eyes, just like the eyes of the soldiers who were all pressing the trigger and preparing to shoot, anxiously looking at the military commander in the mountain temple.

Army Chief of Staff Qu Fengtong looked at the commander.

At this time, Xu Shuzheng seemed a little hesitant. He looked at the map and the torn hole marked on the map.

For a moment, he admired Wu Peifu from the bottom of his heart, who dared to contradict him at the risk of being shot. He opened the Japanese army's mouth and took the initiative to attack the Japanese army in depth. This meant that the time was ripe for a general attack. This was not right.

Is this the moment he has been waiting for? But there is a sense of unwillingness in his heart. He has not been able to achieve his wish and have not consumed enough troops. Now he even regrets it. Why did he choose Wu Peifu? If it was someone else

People, if... But now, time is passing little by little, if you don't seize the opportunity...
