Blocked by the shallow trench walls on both sides of the trench, the manic air waves that could only vent their energy crazily to both ends flattened all the protrusions in the forty-meter-long trench in one go.
Of course, that is mainly due to the softer human body, which is somewhat resistant to hard stones.
Many Japanese invaders who were lying down hoping that they would be lucky enough were thrown into the air without even having time to react. They played a heart-pounding game of weightlessness and then fell heavily. Some were even thrown directly out of the sky 20
More than meters away, he fell down the mountain.
Obviously, the little devils who have experienced such a thrilling game will never have a chance to beat their hearts again. In fact, their internal organs were shattered alive when the air wave came, and they fell from a height of five, six or even ten meters.
In fact, it just accelerated their death process.
One round, two rounds, three rounds, the Chinese artillery shells seemed endless.
The entire top of Jiuguan Mountain was covered in thick smoke, and nothing could be seen. The ancient city wall pass, which was once dilapidated and had not been used as a bunker by the defenders, completely disappeared with a loud bang.
The strongest fortifications in ancient China, which could withstand knives, axes, and thousands of arrows, were themselves vulnerable to modern firearms.
Not to mention the wood and bricks flying all over the sky, the loud noise made even the soldiers of the 1st Company of the 1st Battalion who were hiding in the tunnel with cotton plugs in their ears shook their heads vigorously as if it could dispel the shock and dizziness.
If the 28th Cavalry Regiment had not arrived in advance, it is very likely that this ancient city wall pass that would have become a hidden danger would have been blown up by the independent regiment itself this afternoon. The lethality of those hard blue bricks flying all over the sky after being shelled
It can definitely increase the power of artillery shells, especially when the city wall is still above the trench. Liu Lang would not be stupid enough to let his city wall increase the power of the Japanese invaders' artillery fire.
Fully sixty kilograms of explosives were buried under the pass. In a shelling attack, the already buried explosives were finally detonated completely.
Sixty kilograms of explosives are equivalent to a dozen mountain artillery shells exploding at the same time, and equivalent to the power of a 250-pound aircraft bomb jumping into the ground and then exploding.
When the pass city wall disappeared in an instant, countless bricks and wood were also thrown away with the air waves, and then fell rapidly with the help of Mother Earth's gravity.
A dozen bricks even fell on the defensive position of the 1st Battalion of the 772nd Regiment 800 meters away, so much so that the infantrymen of the battalions and companies simply picked up their guns and shrank their heads and hid in another ditch in the trench to avoid artillery fire.
They had to dodge the rocks falling from the sky. That thing was definitely a terrifying thing that could kill people. The rubble flew freely in the air and swayed its own energy. You couldn't tell who was a friendly force, and who took a hit, either maimed or dead.
People hundreds of meters away have time to hide, but where can the Japanese troops at the center of the explosion hide? They can only stay close to them. If they are hit, they will play mahjong with Amaterasu. If they are not hit, they will continue to wait to be killed by the shells.
.
In fact, it is a lucky thing to be hit on the head by a brick weighing more than ten kilograms. At any rate, it is over in one fell swoop and you don’t have to suffer anymore. But if you are like an unlucky Japanese second lieutenant and are thrown away by a brick weighing ten kilograms,
A kilogram of bricks was hit on the waist, and the feeling was not good.
Falling from a height of nearly 20 meters, the ten-kilogram brick, after being accelerated by gravity, creates a terrifying energy impact at a speed of tens of meters per second plus gravity, which shatters the fragile lumbar vertebrae into pieces in an instant.
The unprotected and softer sebaceous internal organs were smashed into a pulp, almost smashing the Japanese second lieutenant into two pieces.
Then, the second lieutenant was not dead for a while. The severe pain made him desperately move away the bricks that were still embedded in his back. Then, he tried hard to move his lower body, which had completely lost control of his power, closer to his body, as if it could save his life.
Extend the time a little longer.
Although, the green intestines that were smashed and filled with feces and water were flowing down the abdominal cavity.
The Japanese invaders on the top of the mountain almost at the same time, even if they were lucky enough to survive, their ears were bleeding from the shock, and they became a standard disabled person. Their ears really became deaf ears - decorations.
In the thick smoke, Fukuna Endo, who was completely deafened by the loud noise, could not hear the miserable screams from his colleagues or the huge explosion of the artillery shells. Only the shaking of the earth around him and the splashing soil were still there.
It reminded him that after such a shocking explosion, the Chinese bombardment had not stopped yet.
Then, he saw his colleague very close to him. That was Second Lieutenant Fukuda Yoshi, the captain of the cavalry team of the 2nd team under his command. He was a Kyoto noble Jiro just like him. He also came with the same dream as him.
China has achieved military exploits and continues to enjoy the glory of noble medals.
But, what was he shouting loudly? Fukuna Endo, who couldn't hear a sound, could only see the shape of his mouth, as if seeking his help.
But, doesn’t this damn idiot know how terrifying the Chinese bombardment is? He dares to half-kneeling and support his upper body. Isn’t that looking for death?
"Asshole, get out of the way." It has to be said that as the temporary commander of the attack sequence, Fukuna Endo, although he had been surrounded by shells, still had the blood and bravery of a soldier in his heart, and continued on the sand of the trench.
He crawled forward and threw his subordinate, who was desperately calling for help to him with tears on his face, to the ground.
Pulling him by the shoulders, he pulled him to his side and rolled him to the wall of the trench. A burning piece of wood fell from the air and was inserted into the ground two meters next to them.
.
Not only his courage, Endo Funa's military qualities are also unparalleled.
However, before he had time to hit this weakling who was frightened by the Chinese shelling, he felt a sharp pain. His ear was bitten by Fukuda Yoshi, whom he rescued. At the same time, the other party
His hands held him tightly like a pair of iron pincers.
The powerful force almost choked Fukuna Endo out of the air. The tighter the hoop tightened, the little air in the chest was squeezed out little by little. Fukuna Endo was about to be beaten by this crazy subordinate.
He was suffocated by the hoop and died.
Fukuna Endo, who was frightened and angry, was scratching around with both hands, and finally grabbed the gun on his waist. He pulled out the Southern Fourteen pistol with difficulty, and opened the safety with even more difficulty with one hand. The Japanese captain who had already begun to roll his eyes rushed towards him.
The subordinates of your own body, shoot, and then shoot.
The Nanfang Fourteen pistol was very successful at the moment. There was no jamming at all, and all six shots were fired into the second lieutenant's body.
It wasn't until the two arms that were holding her body loosened slightly, that Fukuna Endo rolled her eyes and was about to suffocate to death, that she took a big breath, even if she was breathing thick black smoke, she couldn't care less. Until
Fresh oxygen was inhaled into his lungs, and the Japanese captain who regained some consciousness then forcefully opened the teeth of the crazy subordinate who was still biting his ear and had been shot to death by his own hands, and bit him into two bloody pieces.
The dripping ears were saved.
"Baga, damn bastard, you almost killed me." Fukuna Endo punched the dead subordinate's completely distorted face away from him with an angry punch.
And tried to open his arms that had lost strength. Then, Endo Fina's eyes suddenly froze.
He finally understood why Fukuda Yoshi, whom he saved, suddenly went crazy. It was because of the pain! He was going crazy from the pain.
What was holding his body was only half of Fukuda Yoshi's body. The already somewhat hollow abdominal cavity was still dragging a long intestine, and the end of the intestine was exactly where the lower body was still in place two meters away.
The Japanese second lieutenant, who had been smashed into flesh from the waist up by the large bricks falling from the sky, was pulled by Fukuna Endo, and the two parts of his body with only some flesh and skin attached were separated. The still living upper body was pulled to the side of the Japanese captain.
.
Already in extreme pain and a bit crazy, the Japanese second lieutenant, who ignored the cannon fire in the sky, was completely desperate at this moment. What he hated most at this time was not the Chinese who lured them here, but the Chinese who tore him alive and would never do it again.
A living boss.
"Ah~~~" Endo Fina yelled in fear that he could not hear, and used his hands and feet to kick away the half-broken corpse of his colleague, which weighed only a few dozen kilograms.
No matter who it is, it is not a pleasant thing to be accompanied by such a miserable corpse, isn't it?
The Japanese captain finally understood why his subordinate's already extremely distorted face still had a strange smile. That was, after six bullets were fired into his body, he was about to die. Finally, he no longer felt any pain.
.
Being smashed into two pieces by a stone is far more painful than being cut in half, which is said to be the most painful.
In fact, this is just a small microcosm of the entire top of the mountain. The Japanese second lieutenant was definitely not the only one who was crushed to death by flying corpses all over the sky.
Some were wearing steel helmets but were flattened by bricks and stones, and their whole heads were completely deformed. There were also those whose heads were directly smashed into the sand and gravel by larger rocks. There were also those who had their spines smashed by rocks and died silently while vomiting blood.
There were quite a few who broke their legs, broke their arms, and cried loudly.
However, the artillery battalion's crazy bombardment did not stop just because the pre-buried city wall pass was detonated. Each gun fired 18 shells, but they only fired a third of it!
Looking at the Jiuguan position that was completely shrouded in thick gunpowder smoke, Okazaki Shoichi, who remained frozen despite the flying rocks, silently drew out his command sword.

PS: Ahem, yesterday in the World Cup finals, the promised fifth update was not delivered, and Croatia, which Fengyue supported, also lost. Although it was an honor to lose, Fengyue would never default just because she lost with only her pants left.
I must make up for this update in these two days, otherwise, the live broadcast (ˉ▽ ̄~) will be cut off~~...
Well, I would like to recommend a historical text, also written by a friend with a military background, "This World is a Little Mysterious". Friends who like historical texts can support it.
