A series of artillery shells fell around Guanghua Gate. It was the Japanese artillery that was firing at Guanghua Gate. The shells fell from the sky one after another, creating a wall of fire with a "bang bang".
Guanghua Gate is already the last gateway to Nanjing City. If Guanghua Gate is lost, the Japanese army can march straight into Nanjing City. Therefore, the resistance of the defenders is also extremely determined and tenacious, but this determination only results in more intense Japanese artillery fire.
Rows of seventy-caliber infantry artillery blasted craters one after another in the city wall. The city wall was ablaze, and the Japanese shelling only exacerbated the chaos in the position. Since there was no decent rock mass on the city wall, the defenders could only
It relies on the city wall for resistance, but this kind of city wall designed and built to resist cold weapons has too little effect on the current situation.
There are only some temporary and hastily built rock masses on the city wall, the height of which can only reach the chest and abdomen of the soldiers. Such rock mass can't even withstand the artillery shells, not even the rain of machine gun bullets fired by the Japanese army.
One of the reasons why the casualties of Chinese military officers and soldiers have remained high.
When Su Rui, Commander of the May 18th Regiment Luo Zhedong, and Chief of Staff of the 87th Division Xia Sheng climbed up the city wall, he immediately saw that the defenders on the wall were unable to raise their heads under the powerful firepower of the Japanese army.
There is constant waste in mid-air.
After climbing the city wall, everyone including Xia Sheng consciously squatted or lay on the ground, slowly moving forward, letting bullets fly above their heads. War is ruthless, but also just.
It will not favor anyone for anything, and even the most powerful people cannot take even one more bullet.
"Whoosh..."
A bullet suddenly flew over Suri's head. Suri, who was imitating others to climb on the city wall, felt dizzy.
"The bullet...this was a fatal bullet flying through my head."
Su Rui suddenly felt his body stiffen, and a feeling of breathlessness came to his heart. He knew that his heart must be beating as fast as a drum at this time.
"Swish swish..."
A hot feeling passed through Pang Gang's head.
Suri felt that he could not move. He felt unprecedentedly scared. He was afraid that a bullet would suddenly take away his life at the next moment.
For a moment, Su Rui froze on the spot, motionless. He felt that he had lost control of his body. He was so nervous that he wanted to yell, but he found that he could not make a sound. He was helpless.
He could only lie on the ground holding the Garand rifle tightly.
Suddenly, a big hand grabbed him and moved him forward, and Su Rui found himself being dragged forward like a dead dog.
At some point, Su Rui felt that he had regained control of his body. He turned around and saw that the person holding him was actually Chief of Staff Xia Sheng.
After seeing the person clearly, Su Rui felt her face was burning, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. It was so embarrassing. She was so scared just now that she couldn't move.
Xia Sheng grinned at him, patted his shoulder again and ignored him, crawling forward alone.
Although Xia Sheng did not scold himself, Su Rui still felt like a ghost. He struggled to crawl into a bunker, where two soldiers were half-crouching on the ground, a general who had not fired a single shot.
The muzzle of the gun poked out of the crenel and fired.
Suri came to a nearby crenel, tremblingly stretched out the muzzle of the gun, and pulled the trigger hard.
"Um......"
The gun didn't go off. Su Rui, who was confused, quickly pulled the gun back and took a look. He immediately blushed because the safety of the love gun hadn't been turned on yet.
Yes, the shame was seen by Xia Sheng just now. This time it was better, the shame was in front of the soldiers.
Embarrassed, Su Rui looked around and saw that everyone around him was shooting outwards. When he found that no one was paying attention to him, he pulled the bolt of the gun and immediately started firing randomly.
Suri didn't know how many times he pulled the trigger. It wasn't until a clear and sweet "ding" sound came from the gun chamber that he knew that the gun chamber had been emptied, but he had no idea where the bullet had hit.
Don't know at all.
But strangely enough, when Su Rui shot out all the bullets in one breath, his heart, which was so nervous that it was about to beat, suddenly relaxed a lot, his body became less stiff, and his movements became smoother.
After firing a few more bullets, Su Rui was able to calm down. He slightly poked his head out of the crenel and saw that everything outside was dark and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Hey...where are the Japanese? Why haven't I seen them?" Su Rui couldn't help but ask the two soldiers beside him.
After Suri asked, one of the two soldiers at the crenel next to him replied: "Sir, the Japanese will not attack now. They always use artillery and machine guns to suppress us first, and then the infantry starts to charge."
"Boom...boom..."
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, a shell exploded about ten meters away from Suri. The violent shock wave knocked Suri to the ground as he was about to sit up. A choking smell of gunpowder smoke rushed into him.
in the nostrils.
Before Suri could say anything before he got up from the smoke, a figure rushed over to him. He rushed to Suri and shouted loudly: "Sir Su, are you okay, Sr. Su..."
"Ahem..."
"What are you yelling about? I'm not dead yet?"
Su Rui got up while coughing. At this time, Su Rui, who was stunned by the explosion, saw clearly that the person who rushed towards him was Wang Dezi.
At this time, the smoke from the explosion had dissipated. Su Rui, who got up, saw the two figures lying next to him, pointed at them and said: "Wang Dezi, go over and see how the two brothers next to you are doing?"
"yes!"
After hearing this, Wang Dezi ran over and crawled over, and soon came to the crenel next to it. When he reached the two figures, he looked around with his hands and shook his head and said, "Sir, they are dead!"
"What? Just die like that?"
Su Rui was stunned for a moment. This was the first time since he came to this time and space that he saw someone die in front of him. Two living lives disappeared like this, disappearing so completely and simply. This was for the first twenty people.
Suri, who had lived in peace and prosperity for many years, was deeply shocked.
Seeing the look on Su Rui's face, Wang Dezi knew that this officer who looked like a white-faced scholar must be a rookie who had never seen blood. He sighed in a low voice and comforted: "Sir, please be more open-minded. In war, it's natural."
People are going to die, and the nearly two thousand people in our group are almost dead. We will get used to it after seeing it more."
Suri smiled bitterly. He doubted that a person like him, who came from an era when abusing a cat would cause a sensation, would get used to the constant presence of dead people around him?
But when Su Rui turned his attention to Wang Dezi, he found that Wang Dezi was observing him carefully. He was shocked and realized that he had dozens of soldiers in his hands and dozens of students in the church.
, if he fails to live up to his expectations, not only will he disappoint everyone who has entrusted his life to him, but the fate of the dozens of female students in the church will be even more unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Su Rui quickly forced himself to cheer up. He climbed to the crenel, slowly sat up, took out a telescope from his chest and observed the outside of the city.
This is a Zeiss 8x30 high-power military telescope. The clarity is very high, as if things in the distance are suddenly brought into view.
Although Su Rui had been a military fan for a period of time before, for a poor man like him, let alone getting real military supplies, he couldn't even afford the knockoffs sold in stores. When he discovered that he was accompanied by
After discovering the magical function of the computer he traveled through time, he immediately cashed in several telescopes. In addition to distributing them to Lin Shiqian who stayed at the church, he also kept one for himself.
As the frame continued to move, several suspicious targets suddenly appeared in Su Rui's telescope. He slowly adjusted the knob in the middle, and a clear scene appeared in front of him.
On a flat ground more than 800 meters away is a Japanese artillery position. There are more than ten small artillery pieces placed there, and dozens of Japanese artillerymen are working hard to fire artillery shells towards their own side.
Su Rui spat out a vicious sentence: "Damn it, I finally found you..."
