The Japanese commander went crazy, and the Japanese infantry also fell into madness.
Even if their most important cover, the 89 tank, was beaten by the Chinese machine guns and fled in panic, and they only dared to hide in the ruins and stick their heads out to shoot at the Chinese with their poor 57mm tank guns, they would not
Divide into multiple tactical teams to launch an attack on the Sihang Warehouse.
Attack from three sides of Sihang Warehouse.
There were at least more than 400 Japanese infantrymen, divided into more than 30 squads, walking through the ruins towards the warehouse building. Jiro Wakibata actually devoted nearly a quarter of the remaining 36th Infantry Regiment at once.
of military strength.
Looking from the top of the building, it looks like a swarm of ants rushing towards the delicious cake in Sihang Warehouse.
However, this big cake is obviously poisonous, and its sting can reach hundreds of meters away.
Six mortars were no longer enough, and the four that had been hidden joined the battle under Xie Jinyuan's order. A total of ten mortars almost exploded a 400-meter area around the warehouse into a sea of flames, making Jiro Wakiba's cheeks shake.
, Bei Dao Gangxiong's face is earthy.
The Chinese actually hid their firepower.
But even so, the Japanese army still refused to retreat and advanced towards the warehouse under the leadership of the squadron leader and squad leader with sun belts wrapped around their heads.
They soon realized that this was an extremely foolish behavior.
Chen Yunfa, Zeng Shui and others also participated in the battle.
The Japanese soldiers with sunbands wrapped around their heads, indicating that they were determined to serve His Majesty the Emperor, became their most conspicuous targets. Although they were more than 400 meters apart and the shooting range of the shooting holes was limited, Zeng Shui, who was on the fifth floor, still showed the super power of the independent regiment.
The horror of snipers.
In just five minutes, Zeng Shui fired eight shots in a row, except for one shot that hit Shan Jixi, who was hopeless because his head was wrapped around the sun belt, and stepped into a pothole. His foot slipped and he fell to the ground. It hit him in the side.
The wall gave him a chance to escape to Amaterasu to drink tea, and the other seven bullets hit him. Following Liu Tuanzuo's modified bullet, even if it missed the vital point, it could form a teacup-sized hole in the body. If
If there was a hospital nearby, he might still be able to survive, but on the battlefield, a small first-aid kit alone could not seal that terrible wound, and the mere bleeding could kill him.
"The Chinese have terrible cold gunmen" quickly spread across the battlefield. The Japanese commanders changed their strategies one after another. They took off their command knives and threw away the small southern pistols that showed their identity. They chose to pick up the Type 38 rifle like the scumbag infantry. They were all dirty.
Apart from their stained military uniforms and big leather shoes, their appearance is almost the same as that of the big-headed soldiers. They are not afraid of serving His Majesty the Emperor, but they do not want to die in vain from long-range sniping by Chinese cold-blooded gunmen.
To put it bluntly, they are also afraid of death.
But it doesn't mean that the Japanese army was helpless in front of the thorn-like Sihang Warehouse and was killed in vain. They used a large number of grenade launchers to block the roof of the building to prevent heavy firepower with the widest range of fire.
While the weapons intervened, a large number of smoke bombs were also thrown to block the defenders' sight.
In fact, this was still too close to the concession, and the Japanese army had some scruples. Otherwise, a large number of poison gas bombs would have been thrown here, and they would have been as polite as now. The location of the Sixing Warehouse limited the Japanese army to at least 7%
The true combat power of ten.
However, the Japanese army, which had lost its heavy artillery and poison gas bombs, was strong enough.
Sihang Warehouse, ground floor.
Xie Jinyuan and two other majors were responsible for the command on the warehouse side. He was observing the movements of the Japanese troops outside through the observation hole. Through the flying artillery fire and the diffuse smoke, he could faintly see the figures of the Japanese troops charging towards the warehouse building.
The little devil's standing infantry regiment is indeed not a lie. The quality of the individual soldiers is extremely high. They bend down when charging, and they walk in a zigzag curve. There are very few people who charge straight forward. Moreover, they are very clear.
Through observation, the direction of detour is usually the blind spot of the shooting port.
While the solid walls of the Four Rows Warehouse brought tough defense, it actually added a lot of difficulties to the defenders themselves. Except for the two wing walls, which took a whole night to dig out dozens of shooting holes, it was difficult to dig out any extra holes.
. We also need to leave shooting holes for light and heavy machine guns. In fact, those who can participate in the battle include no more than two squads of infantry on each floor in front of the building.
The defense on the front of the building is also the most dangerous. All the shooting holes are fortifications made of sandbags piled against the windows, which are not as strong as the concrete walls more than 1 meter thick. The Japanese army also seized on this shortcoming of the warehouse building.
, the walls on both wings were too hard to break, so they mobilized all the infantry artillery of the entire infantry regiment, up to seven or eight, to bombard the front of the building wildly.
The reason why they did not hesitate to expose the hidden mortars was to suppress the fiercely firing infantry artillery. In the end, they no longer bothered to suppress the Japanese infantry that was swarming towards them like ants.
Even so, at least three window fortifications were hit by infantry artillery. Two groups of machine gunners were sacrificed. One heavy machine gun and two light machine guns were blown up. There was also a group of shooters who were lucky enough to empty out their ammunition.
He was moving bullets aside, but he was only injured by the aftermath of the shell explosion, but did not lose his life.
Under such circumstances, there were still many blind spots for shooting in the warehouse building. These were all captured by the Japanese infantry, who charged desperately towards the warehouse under the cover of their own artillery fire and machine guns.
This makes rifle shooting difficult. Unless you are a special shooter like Zeng Shui, it will be difficult to hit the target under such circumstances.
As for the machine gun, a large number of bullets were poured over it like a fan, making it impossible for the little devil to hide.
However, the little Japs are not fools. The distance between their individual soldiers is at least ten meters. It is impossible for a large number of Japs soldiers to crowd together and charge like in later movies and TV dramas. Therefore, it is impossible to shoot with machine gun fire.
Killing loosely formed Japanese skirmishers consumes too much ammunition.
Although the 88th Division Headquarters left a large amount of reserve ammunition to Xie Jinyuan's troops before retreating, and Boss Du also hid a lot in his secret room, and even promised to use the tunnels to replenish it, but yesterday alone consumed up to 100,000 ammunition.
50,000 rounds of machine gun bullets. This is the second day of the battle. According to the little devil's attack method, if there are not hundreds of thousands of rounds in one day, it will definitely not be possible. I don't know how many days there will be fighting in the future. Even Boss Du is
God, there is absolutely no way he can organize so much ammunition at this time.
However, although the little devil is powerful, he is still made of flesh and blood. It is obviously a wishful thinking to conquer a strong military fortress with a body of flesh and blood.
Even though the Japanese army has an entire infantry regiment of more than 3,300 people, which is seven or eight times the strength of Xie Jinyuan's troops, after yesterday's massive killings, Xie Jinyuan estimated that they still have more than 2,500 troops. Even if they are strong enough,
Moreover, the area of the Sihang Warehouse is limited, and due to the terrain restrictions, the Japanese army cannot deploy, so they can only adopt this refueling tactic, one squadron after another. Attacking with almost two squadrons like now is probably the limit.
Xie Jinyuan only observed it for a while and was completely relieved. As long as the little devils didn't use heavy artillery bombardment or dropped heavy aerial bombs, and as long as the ammunition in the warehouse was not exhausted, the four-row warehouse would be an unbreakable fortress, even if it was a small one.
The Japanese tried to fill it with the strength of an entire division, but it was still in vain!
