With 120 field artillery helping, the Japanese army was indeed much more confident.

The sandbag fortifications that can defend against heavy machine guns are like paper under the bombardment of heavy artillery. After several consecutive bombardment of Japanese guns, they have turned into broken soil.

The first line of defense in Sihang Warehouse was lost before the Japanese infantry even started attacking.

Fortunately, when the Japanese heavy artillery began to test the first floor, the Army Lieutenant Colonel ordered all officers and soldiers of the first company to return to the warehouse to abandon the first line of defense. Otherwise, the third platoon of Tang Dao would have to be less than half an infantry squad for those few cannons alone.

The hot sweat on the face of the veteran who had become the deputy platoon leader was almost flowing into a stream. The 120 field cannon made this veteran who had experienced countless life and death battlefields feel the crisis.

After sweeping all the fortifications in the trench on the front line, two 120 heavy cannons began to aim at the building and fired. After more than twenty consecutive guns, the solid walls of the Sihang Warehouse had become less indestructible than before, and more than a dozen shocking pits remained on the wall like scars.

Two windows that were completely sealed by sandbags were directly hit by large-caliber cannons. The extremely terrifying armor-piercing bombs used kinetic energy to blow up the sandbag fortifications into a sky full of powder, and even had the spare energy to continue rushing forward and shot straight into one wall in the building, blowing a large hole in the wall.

Fortunately, Tang Dao had already predicted the terribleness of the large-caliber cannon. All the soldiers who were not on the battlefield hid in the room with thicker wall protection around the corner, so that there were no casualties.

By the way, Tang Dao is no longer the third platoon leader of the first company. After the artillery attacked the Japanese ambushed machine gun position last night, the Army Lieutenant Colonel issued another promotion order.

The company commander of the first company, Shangguan Yun, was promoted to deputy battalion commander and became the No. 3 figure of the warehouse defender in one fell swoop.

Lei Xiong, the most qualified company commander of the machine gun company, refused to be promoted by himself. He did not want to leave the brothers of the machine gun company. His machine gun company had to undertake fire support tasks. On the contrary, it was the company with the most casualties in this warehouse defense battle. Lei Xiong, who had red eyes, could not suppress the roar of cannons: I will not be promoted, even if I die, I will die with my brothers.

Of course, if he became the deputy battalion commander, I am afraid that Major Lei Xiong would not be able to take charge of the machine gun shooter as he is now, which should be one of the reasons.

The other two infantry company commanders naturally didn't have much thoughts because they had a little experience.

Shangguan Yun was promoted to the position of company commander of the company. In terms of qualifications, it was originally a deputy company of Leng Feng, but Leng Feng took the initiative to find two commanders and recommended Tang Dao as company commander of the company. The army lieutenant colonel, who originally wanted Tang Dao, naturally followed the situation and ordered the promotion of Tang Dao to company commander of the company.

Inadvertently, Tang Dao created a promotion record in the Imperial Guard. Not only did he be promoted from a sergeant to a captain in three days and four nights, he also served as the actual position of the company commander of the main company. Moreover, when the troops did not suffer major losses and the chief officer was still alive.

This can only be described as a miracle.

At the same time, due to the vacant position, the veteran Youzi Li Jiujin, who has been promoted to the second lieutenant, was the platoon leader of the third rank, and Lao Hei served as the deputy platoon leader.

Yang Xiaoshan and Niu Er were transferred to the company headquarters to serve as guards by Tang Dao, while the former platoon correspondent Erya naturally became the company headquarters correspondent.

But the joy of promotion was soon diluted by daytime sacrifice.

The second platoon, which was defending the first floor with the third platoon, suffered trauma when the Japanese attacked. Because of the threat of 120 field cannons, all machine gun teams were actually very careful and often rolled into the bunker after a long shot.

But in the end, two groups did not have time to hide in the cover during a force shooting, and unfortunately encountered a terrible impact of 120 field cannons.

A sinful shell exploded above the sandbag fortification. The huge shock wave directly rolled up the main and deputy shooter of the machine gun team three or four meters high and then threw it five or six meters away.

The two soldiers spitting purple and black blood in big mouths stopped breathing before the medical staff arrived.

There was another group of shooting at the shooting hole, but a field cannon exploded almost less than half a meter near the shooting hole. The air waves, the high temperatures generated by the explosion and shrapnel drilled into the shooting hole, blowing the main shooter into a sieve. More than a dozen first aid kits were used to block the blood gushing out of his body. A large amount of blood loss completely took his life in just a few minutes.

The deputy archer was cut into the chest by a shrapnel. There were only medical soldiers here, no doctors, and he could only watch him lying in the arms of his comrades, and a soft call for his mother to die peacefully an hour later.

I am sad, but I can only face it.

Light machine gun shooters became the most casualty group on the battlefield at this time, but they had to go.

Although the Japanese infantry only pretended to move more than 200 meters away, they were like a group of sharks constantly swimming. Once they smelled the weak smell in the warehouse, they would pounce on them and tear everyone in the warehouse to pieces.

The tyranny of the 120th field cannon is unparalleled.

Seeing that, Fukichiro, who arrived in the second-line trenches, was excited.

Damn it, if he had made up his mind to send heavy artillery to help him earlier, perhaps his 36th Infantry Regiment would have shown the bravery of the Imperial Japanese Army, and occupying this fortress was not as difficult as imagined.

The Japanese army's extremely sluggish morale seemed to have improved at this moment. Looking at the Sihang Warehouse, which was bombarded by its own heavy artillery, the cheers of "Onboard! Long live the Emperor! The empire's martial arts fortune is prosperous!"

The Army Lieutenant Colonel's brow was so terrible that only two 120 heavy artillery were so scary. If the Japanese army transferred a few more, they could use this terrible cannon to knock on the thick walls little by little with the terrible penetration cannon. Not to mention whether the building could withstand it, all the firepower points would be completely exposed to the Japanese firepower.

Then, you will lose all your advantages and you will have to fight to the death.

"Tang Dao, if you can hold on until the evening, can you blow up the Japanese heavy artillery? This artillery poses too great a threat to us." The Army Lieutenant Colonel subconsciously asked Tang Dao the first time.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Subconsciously, Lieutenant Colonel of the Army believed that Tang Dao could do it, even if he knew that it was a seemingly impossible task.

"Sir! Blowing it out is no problem, but I don't think it's meaningful. Since the Japanese army can transfer two doors and blow it up, maybe more can be transferred." Tang Dao shook his head very rarely.

"Are we still unable to defend this place after all?" A trace of gloom flashed in the Army Lieutenant Colonel's eyes.

"Whether it can be defended or not depends on us, but on those people!" Tang Dao's eyes showed a cold light. "Sir, please be honest, maybe we will receive a more tough military order tonight!"

"Is that so? The Japanese army is just rehearsing and relying on heavy artillery to intimidate the Westerners in the concession to oppress our top leaders and force our troops to withdraw. There is nothing new." The Army Lieutenant Colonel heard the meaning of Tang Dao, but he was not depressed, as if he was being troubled and had aroused fighting spirit, and the tiger's eyes were chilling.

"Since that's the case, I'll let the devils take a good look and play tricks. They may do it, but when it comes to strong attacks, they can't do it, at least not here."

"Lei Xiong!"

"have!"

"I ordered you to not be petty, and I will be able to fight with all my firepower.

Isn't it a feint? Then I'll let you shed more blood and tell the brothers in the machine cannon company to let go of fire points and grenade launchers, specialize in infantry, and all infantry that can be seen."

Tang Dao sighed slightly.

He knew that the supreme commander had made preparations for evacuation.

Because he no longer intends to save ammunition.

When the Sihang Warehouse made a full resistance, the Japanese army became timid. After dozens of casualties and injuries, they completely calmed down and even 120 field artillery fired.

This made the Japanese military reporter Shu Fukuyama a fierce battlefield essay that he had just written and had to tear off quietly.

In fact, Lord Colonel is like a naughty child. He is beaten up by someone and becomes honest immediately. He can remain silent, but he is shameless and sings praises to him...
