Chapter 432 The stupidity of the side
This may be the first time that the Japanese troops of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade have experienced the power of their 150-caliber heavy artillery at such a close distance.
However, most of them can no longer express their feelings in person.
Before the shot was completely hit, two double-equipped 25mm machine guns and more than 20 people related to them were destroyed.
"Damn it, Tietou is taking revenge on me!" Lei Xiong wiped the soil and dust from his face that was swept by the air waves, muttering in a low voice.
But his eyes were full of excitement. This big thing was better than a mortar. With just one shot, two machine guns were silenced.
Let's give the guy a few more troubles! The Chinese soldiers who were lying motionless were actually the same as Lei Xiong thought, it would be better to stay away, but don't be killed by the Japanese guns, but they were killed by their own guns.
Cheng Tieshou lived up to expectations.
Amid the Chinese soldiers' anticipation and the Japanese army's dull waiting, the 150-heavy cannon that was trying hard to lower the muzzle sounded the horn of death again.
"Boom!" Another shell exploded.
However, this time, a large pit with a depth of two meters and a diameter of about three meters appeared in the hit position, and more than 20 Japanese corpses were thrown into the position.
"Baga! It's over!" Komura Shangzhi almost collapsed into the trenches of the position on the other side.
He has a strong adaptability. He can now accept the fact that the brigade is being attacked by the Chinese, and even accept that some of the brigade positions fall into the opponent, but he must not accept that his position is being attacked by his heavy artillery.
As the captain of the Colonel's Circle of the Heavy Artillery, he knew very well the power of those 150-caliber heavy artillery.
The position he is now staying at seems to be quite large, with four 25mm machine guns and hundreds of infantry artillery, but under the continuous bombardment of that heavy artillery, it will sooner or later become a soul under the artillery fire.
What if the Chinese find that one gun is not enough and then use other heavy guns? Or, the purpose they have is not to damage these heavy guns, but to seize them and point the muzzle at the stupid pigs of the 18th Division?
Yes, in the current definition of the Japanese artillery Colonel, the 18th Division from Sadao Niujima was all stupid pigs. If they weren't transferring the escort infantry corps, how could their heavy artillery brigade encounter such a situation?
However, Naoshi Komura is definitely a "noble" person. He would never let him go to Amaterasu to report just because his colleagues were a group of pigs. The empire's grand ambitions and great achievements still require those pigs to help him.
So, after the second artillery bombarded the position, the Japanese artillery colonel quickly issued the most difficult, resolute and important military order in his life.
"Blast the cannon! All the imperial soldiers who are still in the cannon position should not let the imperial heavy weapons fall into the hands of the Chinese."
Compared with the Chinese army, the Japanese army has already entered half modernization early, especially for high-tech services such as artillery. In order to facilitate the issuance of instructions, there is a telephone number on each artillery position. Although the anti-aircraft artillery brigade is not a command center, it can also reach each artillery position.
On the 150 heavy artillery position that was first attacked, the Japanese army lost unified command in panic, and basically used the various artillery positions to organize their forces to defend.
Although only the second lieutenant who led the team had a poor Southern Fourteen pistol and a spare 38 rifle that would only be taken out during training.
Therefore, there are still as many as 24 artillery positions that can receive military orders from the Colonel Captain.
"Blasting the cannon?" Many Japanese lieutenants naturally couldn't believe it when they received this military order, but it was a military order from the highest commander of the corps, and they could not question it.
No matter how much I feel sorry for, the cannon will have to explode.
So, Zhuang Shisan, who was studying how to completely blow up a 3-ton behemoth weighing slag in the afterglow of the flare, was stunned.
Cluster grenades were placed under the 150th heavy artillery, and even felt that they were not enough. They took it easy to bring the soldiers of several blasting teams weighing more than 20 kilograms as detonators, and their eyes widened in the distance.
They are still conducting technical operations here, why are there explosions on the Japanese artillery positions that have not yet occupied? That is much more colorful than the fireworks set off during the Chinese New Year.
The huge explosion sounded like a few hundred meters and the ears were buzzing, and the flames soaring to the sky above proved one thing---the Japanese guns exploded.
Blasting cannons sounds very simple.
In countless TV series in the future, such scenes are often thrown into the cannon barrel with a grenade, and this cannon is ruined.
But in fact, how strong is the gun steel used to make the gun barrel?
What's more, if the barrel is destroyed, will people not install it?
If you don’t get more explosives and detonate them from a long distance, you can’t take such a behemoth that can send 20 kilograms of shells to 10,000 meters away.
But obviously, in this regard, only one can understand oneself better. The professionalism of Japanese artillery in bombing their own artillery is definitely ahead of Chinese soldiers.
"Is the cavalry battalion so awesome?" At that moment, Zhuang Shisan could only think of the cavalry who had rushed into the distance. It seemed that only they had this ability.
However, the cavalry battalion is too strong, and there are still thousands of Japanese people! Not only are they rushed in so hard that they can still use their strength to bomb the cannon.
No wonder Chief Tang chose them as a smooth road for the entire army! This combat power is too strong.
Little did they know that the cavalry who had killed the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery position felt the vibration of the earth behind them and more than a dozen flames that soared into the sky, and they were also a little confused.
Are the infantry so awesome? In just a moment, not only did they run so fast, but they even blew up the cannons. Is our six-legged ones too inferior to the combat power?
"Brothers, the infantry are coming up, keep rushing forward with me!" Gong Shaoxun shot and killed a Japanese army fleeing wildly into the darkness. His confidence increased greatly and he shouted loudly to gather the formation.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The cavalry who were already chasing the Japanese army received orders and moved closer to their commanders.
The cavalry reorganized their teams, and no one looked back.
Even if their comrades who are together day and night are lying there.
As comrades-in-arms, their mission is to continue moving forward in the direction of their comrades-in-arms falling.
Because, this is the battlefield.
The Chinese soldiers responded to the sudden Japanese artillery bombing, and the morale of the Japanese army completely slid to the bottom.
"Baga! Are the Chinese attacking so fast? How many people did they come?" Looking at the flames soaring into the sky more than 500 meters away, the commander of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade of the Japanese 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade who had just sent a telegram to the 18th Division and the 36th Infantry Brigade for help was fainted.
Does that mean that the thousands of Chinese people I had previously estimated were still too few? Did the Chinese have an infantry division?
The staff members in the Heavy Artillery Brigade Command looked at each other, and no one could give the unpopular brigade commander an accurate answer.
Colonel Komura, the 3rd Artillery Regiment, who was in dire straits, had lost contact, and the sound of horse hooves of the Chinese cavalry was also rumbling, showing the prosperity of the Chinese soldiers.
As a result, Sumida Rashiro, who had never encountered such a situation, made a wrong judgment. The Chinese had at least two infantry regiments or even more troops involved in the attack. They were absolutely capable of transporting the cannons away and perhaps even aiming the muzzle at the direction of the 18th Division.
"My 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade will hold on to the rescue until the entire army is broken, and the imperial heavy weapons will not fall into the hands of the enemy, and will explode on its own!"
So, the Japanese Major General of the Army, whose confidence collapsed, sent a farewell message to the 10th Army Command.
Sumida Yoshiro, who is still brave, is not cowardly enough to order the entire army to retreat. This is worthy of future military bricks. The military players did not place him on the pillar of shame in history, but the trait of stupidity is that they are on the sidelines of Colonel Komura Naoshi.
According to the analysis of the battle situation at that time, it would take at least three to four hours for the Chinese with more than one thousand people to annihilate thousands of Japanese artillery troops distributed in various positions on the extremely wide battlefield.
However, the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade artificially shortened this time to less than two hours, which led to the 36th Infantry Brigade, which bravely extended a helping hand, being broken.
I am an artilleryman! Not an infantryman. Major General Sumida Lai Shiro, who was drinking tea at Amaterasu, might have to complain in such despair.
But no matter what choice, it cannot change the fate of a group of Japanese artillery soldiers without guns and only cannons, even if their numbers reach thousands.
No matter how many sheep there are, they can only be shaved or become broth.
