Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 434

Chapter 434 Juxtaposed Stupidity

This may be the first time that the Japanese soldiers of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade have experienced the power of their 150-caliber heavy artillery at such a close range.

It's just that most of them can no longer express their feelings in person.

One shot that had not completely hit the target destroyed two twin 25mm cannons and more than 20 people associated with them.

“I'm going to wipe it, this **** Tietou is trying to take revenge on me!” Lei Xiong wiped the dirt and dust on his face that had been swept up by the air waves, and muttered in a low voice.

But his eyes were full of excitement. This big thing is easier to use than a mortar. With just one shot, two machine cannons were silenced.

Let's give the **** a couple of more blows! The Chinese soldiers lying motionless were actually thinking the same thing as Lei Xiong, that is, it was better for them to stay away, otherwise they would be killed by their own cannons instead of being killed by Japanese guns.

Cheng Tietsou lived up to expectations.

While the Chinese soldiers were looking forward to it and the Japanese troops were waiting dumbly, the 150-meter heavy artillery that had tried its best to lower the muzzle sounded the horn of death again.

“Boom!” Another cannonball exploded.

However, this time it hit the position. A large crater with a depth of two meters and a diameter of about three meters appeared, and more than 20 tattered corpses of Japanese soldiers were scattered in the position.

"Baga! It's over!" Komura Shangzhi almost collapsed in the trench on the other side.

People are very adaptable. He can now accept the fact that the brigade is being attacked by the Chinese, and he can even accept that part of the brigade's position has fallen into the enemy's hands, but he can never accept the fact that his own position is being attacked by his own heavy artillery.

As the captain of the heavy artillery regiment, he is very aware of the power of those 150-caliber heavy artillery.

The position he is currently staying in seems to be quite large. It also has four 25mm machine guns and hundreds of infantry artillery. However, under the constant bombardment of that heavy artillery, sooner or later he will become a dead soul under the fire.

And if the Chinese find that one cannon is not enough, what if they use other heavy artillery? In other words, their purpose is not to destroy these heavy artillery, but to capture them and aim the muzzles at those stupid pigs of the 18th Division?

Yes, according to the current definition of the Japanese artillery commander, the 18th Division from Ushijima Sadao down are all stupid pigs. If they hadn't transferred the **** infantry regiment, how could their heavy artillery brigade encounter such a situation?

However, Komura Naoshi is definitely a 'noble' person, and he will never let his colleagues go to report to Amaterasu with him just because they are a bunch of pigs. The empire's grand plan still needs those pigs to help dig up the land.

So, after the second artillery bombardment entered the position, the Japanese artillery commander quickly issued the most difficult, decisive and important military order in his life.

“Blow up the artillery! All imperial soldiers who are still holding on to the artillery positions must blow up the artillery. We must not let the empire's heavy weapons fall into the hands of the Chinese.”

Compared with the Chinese army, the Japanese army has already entered semi-modernization in advance, especially for high-tech services such as artillery. In order to facilitate the issuing of orders, there are telephones at each gun position. Although the anti-aircraft artillery brigade is not a headquarters, it is It also has access to every gun emplacement.

On the 150 heavy artillery position that was the first to be attacked, the Japanese army lost unified command in panic, and basically organized forces at each gun position for defense.

Although only the second lieutenant leading the team had a poor Southern 14 small pistol and a few spare 38 rifles that were taken out during training.

Therefore, there are still as many as 24 artillery positions that can receive military orders from His Majesty the Colonel.

"Explode artillery?" Many Japanese second lieutenants were naturally in disbelief when they received this military order, but it was an order from the highest commander of the regiment and they were not allowed to question it.

No matter how distressed you are, the cannon will still explode.

So, Zhuang Shisan, who was studying how to completely blow up the three-ton behemoth into pieces in the afterglow of the flare, was stunned.

Cluster grenades were being placed under the 150-meter heavy artillery. They even felt that it was not enough. The soldiers of several demolition teams who took the trouble to bring in shells weighing more than 20 kilograms as detonators also looked into the distance with their eyes widened.

They are still carrying out technical operations here. Why are there explosions in the Japanese artillery positions that have not yet been occupied? That's much more gorgeous than the fireworks set off during the Chinese New Year.

Huge explosions that shook people's ears hundreds of meters away were ringing, and the flames that were more than ten meters high proved one thing - the Japanese artillery exploded.

　　Exploding a cannon sounds simple.

Such scenes in countless TV dramas in the future will often involve throwing a grenade into the barrel of a cannon, and the cannon will be destroyed. But actually, how strong must the gun steel used to make the gun barrel be?

What's more, if the barrel of the gun is destroyed, will someone get another barrel to install it?

Without getting more explosives and detonating them from a long distance, we really can't use this behemoth that can send 20 kilograms of artillery shells to a distance of 10,000 meters.

But obviously, only you can understand yourself better in this regard. The Japanese artillerymen are definitely ahead of the Chinese soldiers in their professionalism in blowing up their own cannons.

"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.

It's just that the cavalry battalion is too strong, and there are still thousands of Japanese! Not to mention being rushed in by them so forcefully, they still had enough energy left to explode the cannon.

No wonder Commander Tang would choose them to clear a smooth path for the entire army! This fighting power is too strong.

As everyone knows, the cavalry who have taken out the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery positions are a little confused when they feel the shaking of the ground behind them and more than a dozen flames rising into the sky.

Are the infantry so good? In just a short time, not only running so fast, but also blowing up all the cannons. Isn't the combat effectiveness of us with six legs too weak?

“Brothers, the infantry are coming up, keep charging forward with me!” Gong Shaoxun shot and killed a Japanese soldier who was fleeing madly into the darkness. His confidence increased and he roared loudly to close the formation.

The cavalry who were already chasing the Japanese army received the order and moved closer to their commanders.

The cavalry regrouped, and no one looked back.

Even though there are comrades they spend time with day and night lying there.

As comrades-in-arms, their mission is to continue moving forward in the direction where their comrades-in-arms fell.

Because, this is the battlefield.

The Chinese soldiers made their own reactions to the sudden bombardment by the Japanese army, while the morale of the Japanese army completely fell to the bottom.

"Baga! Did the Chinese attack so fast? How many people did they come?" Looking at the flames soaring into the sky more than 500 meters away, the man who had just sent a request for help telegram to the 18th Division and the 36th Infantry Brigade Sumita Raishiro, commander of the Japanese 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade, felt dizzy.

Does that mean that the thousands of Chinese that I had previously estimated are still too few? Did the Chinese come with an infantry division?

The staff officers in the heavy artillery brigade headquarters looked at each other, and no one could give an accurate answer to the pale-faced brigade commander.

Colonel Hisashi Komura of the 3rd Artillery Regiment, who was in dire straits, had lost contact, and the sound of hoofbeats of the Chinese cavalry was also heard, showing the strength of the Chinese troops.

As a result, Sumita Raishiro, who had never encountered such a situation, made a wrong judgment. The Chinese had at least two infantry regiments or even more troops participating in the attack. They were absolutely capable of transporting the cannons away, and might even point the muzzles at them. Directly in the direction of the 18th Division.

“Our 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade will stand firm and wait for reinforcements until the entire army is shattered. In order to prevent the empire's heavy weapons from falling into the hands of the enemy, they will explode on their own!”

As a result, the Japanese Army Major General, whose confidence collapsed, sent a farewell message to the Tenth Army Headquarters.

Sumita Raishiro, who still maintained a brave heart, was not cowardly enough to order the entire army to retreat. This is worthy of future military experts not to put him on the pillar of shame in history. However, this trait of stupidity is tied with Colonel Hisashi Komura. .

According to the analysis of the battle situation at the time, if the Chinese with more than a thousand people wanted to annihilate thousands of Japanese artillery units distributed in various positions on an extremely wide battlefield, and they had to blow up the artillery by themselves, it would take at least three to four hours. time.

However, the entire 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade artificially shortened this time to less than two hours, resulting in the 36th Infantry Brigade who bravely extended a helping hand also having his arm broken.

I am an artilleryman! Not being an infantryman, Major General Sumita Raishiro, who was drinking tea at Amaterasu, could only complain in such despair.

But no matter what choice they make, they cannot change the fate of a group of Japanese artillerymen who have no guns but cannons, even if they number in the thousands.

No matter how many sheep there are, they can only be shaved or turned into broth.

The Chinese army, equipped with various long and short guns, machine guns and even mortars, is the wolf pack on this battlefield.
