Chapter 38 As a teacher, how can I not know
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom!"
Cannonballs fell from the sky one after another,
The ferocious bombs fell in the camp where the Japanese artillery squadron was stationed.
Suddenly there was a huge ball of fire, among which several rounds of 843 anti-personnel explosive grenades fell on the Japanese artillery.
After the violent explosion, the entire Japanese artillery squadron position was blown to pieces.
There are corpses of Japanese artillerymen killed by heavy mortars everywhere.
Broken masonry and rubble were scattered in all directions along with the raging shock wave.
There were flying sand and rocks everywhere, and gunpowder smoke filled the air.
"How...how could this happen?"
"The Chinese army on the opposite side actually has heavy mortars?"
"Shouldn't the previous round of shelling have cleared out all the heavy mortars of the Chinese Army?"
The squadron leader of the artillery squadron, Jun Matsumoto, looked disgraced and despairing, staring at his artillery squadron. Under the indiscriminate bombardment of the artillery squadron commanded by Jinbao, almost the entire army was destroyed, and he muttered to himself in despair.
Words.
Since he embarked on the Battle of Songhu, he has participated in more than 10 artillery attacks on the Chinese army.
But he has never met any decent opponent,
In particular, the artillery team of the national army was even more scarce.
Except for the two elite divisions of the 88th and 87th, most of the national army's troops lacked the support of heavy firepower weapons, especially heavy artillery.
Therefore, he has never thought highly of the artillery unit of the national army since the war in Songhu.
And under the bombardment of the artillery under his command,
The number of Nationalist officers and soldiers who were killed and injured in the bombing was not even a thousand, but several hundred.
He even set a small goal for himself, which was to kill 10,000 Nationalist soldiers through artillery fire and become the most outstanding artillery squadron leader of the Japanese army.
"boom!"
It's a pity that his goal and confusion at the moment came too late.
Just when Jun Matsumoto, the squadron leader of the artillery squadron, was confused, a deafening sound of artillery shelling came in an instant.
With the roar of an explosion that resounded throughout the night, two high-rotating Type 843 anti-personnel explosive grenades immediately landed next to him at a very fast speed.
Between this electric light and flint,
The flames of the explosion instantly engulfed him...
He stared wide-eyed, watching in horror as he was sent to hell by two sudden 843-type anti-personnel explosive grenades, and went to meet his Amaterasu.
Before he could scream again before he died, he watched helplessly as he was gradually obliterated and reduced to ashes by the Type 843 anti-personnel blasting grenade that was attacking him.
And at this moment,
The positions defended by the Eighth Division of the National Army were defeated by the 101st Division commanded by Lieutenant General Masaki Ito and the 9th Division commanded by Yoshizumi Ryosuke, the Japanese division commander, and suffered more than half of the casualties.
National Army Eighth Division Division Headquarters,
Commander Tao is outside the headquarters, using military binoculars to observe the battle situation at his frontline position.
"Be prepared to fight to the death!"
"As the commander of the Eighth Division, I cannot abandon my troops easily. This is what any Chinese officer must do."
"At least I can't evacuate without the Chairman's order!"
When he saw his troops being pinned to the ground, being rubbed and killed by two Japanese divisions, Commander Tao felt very uncomfortable and angry, but he soon issued an order in frustration.
"But division commander, the 21st Group Army has not arrived for a long time. If this continues, our Eighth Division will really be wiped out here!"
"We should leave some fire for the troops!"
However, Cao Ruiming, Master Tao's most confidant and trusted lieutenant, was worried.
"No need to say any more, brother Ruiming, I have already decided!"
"I would rather die in battle than be a slave to the country's subjugation!"
"Even if our Eighth Division fights to the last soldier, we will never make it easy for those Japanese soldiers!"
"Send my order and prepare for the last desperate counterattack!"
"If you are going to die in battle, then kill one more Japanese to be buried with you!"
"Killing one Japs is enough. If you kill two Japs, you will make a profit. If you kill two or more Japs, as long as I am not dead, then I will give him a reward of 100 oceans!"
"Those who are not afraid of death, just kill more Japanese and bring out the bravery of our Eighth Division!"
"Swear to fight the Japanese pirates to the death, and defend Yunzao Bang to the death!"
Commander Tao interrupted the adjutant Cao Ruiming's evacuation and said.
In this regard, the adjutant Cao Ruiming was helpless and stopped persuading him. He turned back and stared at the Chief of Staff Mu Jiangyou beside him, looking at him with hope, hoping that he could find a way to stop Commander Tao's decision to fight to the death.
"We'd better listen to what Master says!"
"He has been so determined to fight to the end twice in a row. We can't stop him!"
"Brother Ruiming!"
"Actually, I already tried to persuade Master yesterday, but unfortunately it ended in failure!"
Facing the expectant gaze of adjutant Cao Ruiming, Chief of Staff Mu Jiangyou, who had already failed to persuade Master Tao, had no choice but to shake his head gently and replied.
"..."
Adjutant Cao Ruiming.
His inner hope was instantly shattered.
Just when adjutant Cao Ruiming's hope of evacuation was extinguished and he hesitated to speak,
Suddenly he heard another series of dull loud noises coming from behind. The loud noises were so long-lasting that they lasted for a full twenty minutes.
Anyone who has been in the military for a while will know that it is at least an artillery company, and it is a heavy mortar company that can produce a shocking effect like shaking the earth when firing a salvo.
"What on earth is going on? We still have artillery units fighting against the Japanese army?"
After a while, the adjutant Cao Ruiming, who had come to his senses, asked the chief of staff Mu Jiangyou next to him in surprise.
"It's not our artillery unit, it's the Japanese heavy mortar unit!"
"It sucks this time!"
"Our troops must have suffered heavy casualties!"
But Chief of Staff Mu Jiangyou exclaimed with a panicked expression.
"There's more than one heavy mortar team!"
Commander Tao also looked extremely solemn, worried about the casualties of his troops, and interjected.
With more than ten years of combat command experience on the battlefield, he could tell by the sound that at least two artillery groups were engaged in an artillery battle.
There is also a heavy mortar team.
At the same time, he quickly used the military telescope in his hand to search for the location of the Japanese artillery team.
He also observed the fighting situation of the national army within his sight,
Or it can be said that it was the tragic situation of being bombarded by heavy artillery by the Japanese army.
But soon he became confused.
Because he discovered through the military telescope in his hand that on the defensive position of his 8th Division, an artillery team was using heavy mortars to carry out fierce bombing against the position of the Japanese artillery squadron.
"...."
"When did our Eighth Division get a heavy mortar battery?"
"As a teacher, how come I don't know?"
"??????"
Then his mind was filled with questions and confusion.
"...."
"We don't know either!"
"??????"
At this moment, Chief of Staff Mu Jiangyou, who also picked up the military binoculars like Commander Tao, and saw clearly the truth of the bombardment, and Adjutant Cao Ruiming were also dumbfounded, with their heads full of questions and couldn't believe it.
In an instant,
Chapter completed!
