The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

Chapter 528 Another Battle on the Great Wall

"Looks like it's time for a street fight!"

The air force and army aviation units reported the strike results in a stream, but Wang Zhangtang just glanced at it and ignored it.With weapons and military skills far beyond the world for decades, if he still can't deal with a group of small Japanese whose minds were stuck 20 years ago, he, the leader of the special brigade, can find a grass rope and hang himself.

Bullying people with high-tech weapons, of course, seems useless to these classical soldiers whose minds are full of blood, fire, life and death. As long as they sit in the command room and make two gestures with their fingers, they will have all kinds of Winged fighter planes and long-range heavy artillery that can fly tens of kilometers in one go do it for them, directly projecting destructive ammunition to the opponent's head, even if they hide in a mouse hole, they can't escape. This kind of non-dead-angle lethal weapon is useless in front of it. Once it is spread, it is difficult to survive.

Thinking about the magical satellite hovering hundreds of kilometers in space, it can actually take a clear picture of a tank on the ground, not to mention the marching army and the fortifications built.And by superimposing and comparing the results of multiple scans and photos, it is possible to easily find out the changed places, so as to judge it as a suspicious target for fixed-point investigation, and then destroy it mercilessly---in this strike, all the forces obtained This is the way to save time and manpower.

This is like an adult bullying a three-year-old child with a big knife, and there is no sense of accomplishment!

However, what did Boss Zhu say? "Bullying people is the foundation of happiness! Don't use high-tech weapons to suppress them and fight, why don't you give up your own advantages and engage in so-called knight battles with them? I am not Song Xianggong!"

Wang Zhangtang deeply agrees.It is better than anything else to be able to kill the devil without dying!On the base of the monument standing on the top of the mountain in Guangming City, there are still very few names of the sacrificed soldiers, and he would rather never fill it up.

Just like right now, the Air Force and Army Aviation have cleaned up all the exposed targets of the Japanese army, and the remaining cleaning work may last for half a day.As long as anyone dares to show up, they will definitely be picked up by the peregrine falcon, which can stay in the air for up to eight hours. The bombers who finally got a chance to fight will not come back until they lose all their ammunition.full text..

But the side effect of wasting too much ammo is.The roads on half of the mountainous battlefield were almost completely destroyed, and the heavy artillery and armored units of the Japanese army had not yet seen traces.Naturally, the troops in front could not be allowed to rush in, and taking down Pinggu County to clear the way forward became the first choice.

"Siege a city on your own land, it sounds a bit psychologically stressful." Wang Zhangtang sighed twice, raised his bushy eyebrows slightly, and ordered, "Tell Luo Zhendong, don't think about losses, fight quickly quick decision!"

After listening to the order, Luo Zhendong didn't show the slightest emotion on his face.Calmly looking at the end of the flat plain in front of him, the small city standing on the plain where many rivers converge and impact, he waved his right hand lightly in the air, and said lightly: "Artillery siege, start!"

This order surprised Du Rongsheng, the deputy of the regiment.Quickly asked: "Is it too impatient? At least let the air force throw some leaflets, and let the people inside prepare to dodge first! Direct bombing will cause heavy casualties!"

Pinggu County has a long history. During the Chenghua and Jiajing years of the Ming Dynasty, the city wall was overhauled three times, and a solid city wall with a height of 11 Zhang 520, a top width of 490 Zhang [-], and a circumference of [-] Zhang was built.There is also a three-foot-five-foot-wide moat outside; a restoration was done during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and the city wall was raised to two feet and seven feet, and the rest were the same. Thousand [-] nine.

For several years, the county has been under the jurisdiction of the puppet Jidong Autonomous Government, but in fact it is completely in the hands of the Japanese army. For more than a year, in order to build the Great Wall defense line, this small town lying under the pass has been turned into fortresses everywhere, trying to go around , are impossible.

Luo Zhendong knew what Du Rongsheng was worried about. If he started a war on his own land and bombed it indiscriminately with cannons first, his compatriots must have died the most. You can't ignore the common people just because they live under the rule of the enemy and the puppet. That's no different from a butcher.

He snorted softly and said: "Almost all the ordinary people in the city ran away, and the rest were either lucky or insensitive. In order to prevent them from being used by the Japanese army, the intelligence department publicized it meticulously. It’s been done to the utmost! Besides, the gates of the city are blocked by the Japanese army, and they can’t leave even if they want to!”

The large-scale military exercise in the north will naturally not be peaceful in counties such as Pinggu, which is only a hundred miles away. Most people think that this is about to go to war. When thinking of the terrifying scene of artillery fire, who will stay there ?Most of them disappeared more than half a month ago.

And when the news of the attack was confirmed, the Japanese army began to recruit strong men to help prepare for the repair work, posing as if they were defending the city, as long as they were not fools, of course they didn't want to stay as cannon fodder!

However, there are exceptions at any time. Some people firmly believe that the Japanese army is powerful. At the beginning, they used a few troops to beat hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers who own the dangerous pass of the Great Wall. They had to give up half of northern Hebei; If you stick to it, it must be impenetrable!

There are still some, but it is difficult to leave their homeland, and they will die in their own old houses, so there is no way to persuade them.Brother Paize who sacrificed himself for such a person?Luo Zhendong didn't have that idea at all!The only thing he considers is to complete the task!

Three reconnaissance planes rushed towards the county town from the south at a speed of more than [-] kilometers. From a long distance, the shrill alarm sounded. Looking down from a high altitude, the densely packed streets that resembled chicken coops were running back and forth. The puppet soldiers in gray or black military uniforms, with some feces and yellow figures in between, are chaotically hiding in the fortifications all over the place, and it is rare to see the people in tattered clothes and disheveled faces!

The reconnaissance plane kept the altitude extremely low, and even a little arrogantly whizzed past the tallest buildings and tree tops in the county. The Japanese air defense forces that had been preparing for a long time showed their minions one after another, heavy machine guns of large and small calibers, and 13.2mm machine guns. , 20mm machine guns, and even a few 37mm anti-aircraft guns showed their figures, and there was a chaotic shot, flashing bullets and shells formed a layer of lively fireworks in the sky, chasing after him in a farewell gesture in vain The tail of the reconnaissance plane was completely empty.

The sound of air defense warnings and the explosion of artillery fire could be heard from several kilometers away. Luo Zhendong's brows slightly raised, and he ordered decisively: "It's done!"

Letting the reconnaissance plane go to say hello first is considered as benevolent and righteous, and if you stay outside desperately, there is really no cure.

The self-propelled artillery battalion, which had entered the state early for a long time, nailed the heavy crawler body firmly to the ground ten kilometers away, and the thick and strong 152mm plus howitzers were loaded with armor-piercing shells one after another, aiming at the "Guanlan Gate" facing south. Boom boom boom" A series of blows roared out!

More than ten seconds later, there was a burst of loud bangs that sounded like heaven and earth cracking in the south of the compact and exquisite town. The high-speed artillery shells and meteors falling from the sky also seemed to smash into the inside and outside of the city wall, and the rough residential buildings clustered around the city gate instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames. The civil and wooden houses exploded into huge fireballs with a radius of more than ten meters, and rubble and rotten tiles flew hundreds of meters away!

A few shells accurately hit the outer masonry wall, and under the action of huge kinetic energy, they pierced directly into a depth of one or two meters and exploded, creating large holes with a diameter of two or three meters.For those near the top, the city wall and the city gate tower were simply lifted off, and large pieces of loess walls glued with rice water and rammed knives could not be chopped into pieces, "Hula la" Collapse towards the root of the wall and moat full of deer villages and sandbags!

Only one minute later, the first battalion of tanks, which had advanced within five kilometers, joined the battle group. The grenades sprayed out by the high-pressure rifled guns penetrated the seemingly solid city wall like tofu. There is a gap, and the hit rate of too much precision is much higher than that of heavy artillery. After a few rounds, the 1-meter-wide city wall with Guanlan Gate as the center has almost no whole structure, and more than a dozen of them collapsed directly. place!

After all, the shells that missed the majority accounted for the majority. The shells that crossed the city wall and blasted into the city pierced the densely packed houses from the beams to the ground, and the ensuing explosion swept across the neighbors. The cannonball couldn't resist even one round, and with the explosion, the tens of meters high pyrotechnic column flew into the air!

Tadao Teragaki, who was squatting on the top of the hill and paying attention to the battlefield, couldn't believe his eyes!He put down the binoculars and rubbed it vigorously, and watched again, yes!The enemy army in the distance is indeed directly bombing the county town with fierce artillery fire!The scene he expected didn't happen!

"Baga! When did the China Army become as brutal as the Imperial Army! Are they not afraid of being criticized by the people when they bombard the civilians with such disregard for life and death?!"

Tadao Teragaki jumped up violently and cursed!This is simply too shameless. With the consistent fine tradition of the Chinese, isn't it necessary to try to avoid accidentally injuring civilians in war?Is there any law for such a reckless attack? !

The staff officers looked at him speechlessly from the side, and sighed in their hearts that His Excellency the Colonel has been so angry that he is incoherent. The imperial army is cruel and so on. How can they say it casually?If this is known to the General Staff Headquarters, a password will be issued!

However, their opinion is the same as Mr. Da Zuo's, such a change is indeed not within the scope of the plan!Fighting without rules at all is unscientific!

The plan was completely disrupted!

In the eyes of the Japanese army, the Chinese army will definitely leave enough time for the civilians to escape first, then once the tank troops stop advancing, they will become live targets for artillery or air force strikes, and the battle will continue step by step according to their own plan... ...that's pretty perfect!

But obviously, their wishful thinking still can't work, the other party doesn't play cards according to common sense!

No matter how strong the city wall is, it will be scum in the face of a direct blow from a large-caliber heavy artillery. Tadao Teragaki knows it without looking at it. The city wall will be completely finished in half an hour. There must be no problem with the passage of the city wall into the county.

"However! In the narrow and crowded streets, a heavy chariot can't even turn around! At that time, it's our turn to show our strength!"

Tadao Teragaki waved his fist confidently, his eyes seemed to see the scene of thousands of troops trapped to death in the back alley.
