When the sun rises in the east, the fierce battle of the night finally ends.
Shanghai, now the most prosperous and wealthy city in China, has fallen into the clutches of the Japanese invaders. In the entire Shanghai and Shili foreign market, as long as it is not a white-rented area, the blue sky and white sun flag can no longer be seen, and the Japanese flag is flying everywhere. Human auntie towel.
In order to declare their sovereignty, the Japanese hung their national flags on famous buildings in Shanghai. When viewed from the air, the sky was white and mixed with red.
In addition, a small part of the entire city of Shanghai has been turned into ruins. The Chinese army and the Japanese army have been fighting bloody battles here for nearly three months. The three months of war have caused all kinds of damage to this international city. , it can be said to be scarred at this time.
Although the battle has ended, there are still beacon smoke, and black smoke is floating in the city of Shanghai. On the banks of the Suzhou River, the Chinese army is still holding on to its last position. All night long, Yu Zhiqian led his men and fought with the Japanese. All night long, until after dawn, the fierce battle slowly came to an end.
In front of the Sihang Warehouse, you can see countless Japanese corpses. Some of them are complete, some are fragmented, twisted, entangled, and in weird postures. How many Japanese sacrificed by the Japanese in the bloody battle last night? There was no statistics, and Yu Zhiqian had no time to count. He knew that he had killed many Japanese.
"Damn, the little devil finally retreated!" Yu Zhiqian held the Zuoguan knife tightly in one hand and supported the wall with the other, panting. After fighting all night, even an iron man would be exhausted.
The Japanese tactics were very effective last night. They almost made it impossible to defend the Sihang Warehouse. During the fierce battle, all the reserve troops rushed out. Otherwise, the first floor might have been completely lost.
The Japs were very smart. During the second round of attack, they first carried out artillery suppression, including mountain artillery and heavy artillery. Their pursuit was not to blow up the entire Sihang Warehouse, but to suppress it. They only needed to aim at the location of the warehouse. Just shell it.
The artillery shells hit the building of the Sixing Warehouse. Although they were unable to penetrate the thick concrete structure, the vibrations and air waves generated after the shells hit made it impossible for the defenders to concentrate on fighting, and they had to evade from time to time. The things that fell made the little devil's path to charge forward much smoother when attacking.
The Japanese carried out non-stop shelling. In addition to mountain artillery and heavy artillery, there were also mortars. Dozens of artillery shells continued to hit the warehouse. From time to time, huge sparks bloomed on the walls of the four rows of warehouses. In addition, In addition, they pointed the direction to the attacking Japanese.
In addition to heavy artillery bombardment, when the infantry entered charging distance, the Japanese machine gun positions also chose to fire. The Japanese infantry's coordination tactics were very good, and the charging soldiers would not be in the shooting range of the machine guns.
Although Mao Sanbai, Yan Qi and others continued to shoot at the machine gunners in the machine gun position, their accuracy could not be guaranteed due to the impact of artillery fire. Moreover, the Japanese were well prepared. As long as the machine gunners fell, someone would immediately come. Rush up to fill the position.
The second round of attack still involved brutal hand-to-hand combat, and more Japanese soldiers rushed in. After Yu Zhiqian hacked to death more than a dozen Japanese soldiers, he chose to shoot them with pistols continuously, and Xie Jinyuan personally brought people over. With support, the Japanese were blocked.
After two rounds of attacks failed, the Japanese did not give up. Less than twenty minutes after withdrawing, a new round of attacks began again. This time, the Japanese captain personally took the lead and rushed into the Sihang Warehouse because their general ordered He was given a death order, and if he could not capture the Sihang Warehouse, he would commit suicide collectively!
However, it failed in the end. At the critical moment, Xie Jinyuan did not dare to hide his secrets and chose to move out several hidden heavy machine guns, place them in the window on the second floor, and shoot at the Japanese.
With the help of Yu Zhiqian's rifle grenades, three Japanese machine gun positions were eliminated. The Japanese soldiers who lacked fire suppression were shot dead many times on the way forward, and not many Japanese soldiers rushed into the building.
After repelling three consecutive attacks by Japanese soldiers, the Japanese readjusted their tactics and did not attack for several hours. It was not until about four o'clock in the morning that the Japanese launched an operation.
This time the Japanese chose the outflanking tactic. First of all, the frontal troops crawled together to get closer to the Sihang Warehouse. At the same time, they selected a hundred Japanese who could swim and sneaked into the Suzhou River from the side. Swimming around to the back of Sihang Warehouse.
The Japanese who were attacking from the front were discovered by the observation post sent by Yu Zhiqian when they entered more than 200 meters. The observation post was sent out about 100 meters away from Sihang Warehouse in order to save the lighting of night vision goggles. A hidden sentry located several meters away.
They all hide in the dark. After discovering the enemy, they immediately retreat and report. If the situation is urgent, they will also fire warning shots. The enemy crawls forward. A few or dozens of people are okay, but hundreds or thousands of people almost act together. He could be heard clearly without even getting close to Sihang Warehouse.
After these Japanese soldiers were discovered, they did not choose to retreat immediately. Instead, they got up from the ground and launched a charge towards the Sihang Warehouse. This scale of charge was similar to the previous one.
After the Japanese discovered that they were exposed, the artillery positions behind them immediately began fire support. At the same time, the newly built machine gun positions began to wreak havoc.
Moreover, this group of Japanese soldiers received a death order and must attract the attention of the defenders in the Sihang Warehouse to their side and provide help to the friendly forces on the side.
The defenders in the Sihang Warehouse did fall into the Japanese trap and concentrated on dealing with the Japanese soldiers in the front, which gave the Japanese soldiers who came around from behind an opportunity.
The Sihang Warehouse was built on the Suzhou River. After hearing the fierce exchange of fire from the front, the swimming Japanese soldiers immediately took action. When the battle was at its most intense, they suddenly came out of the window behind them.
More than a hundred Japanese fresh troops broke in from behind the windows, trapping the defenders on the first floor in the middle. The defense line on the first floor became precarious.
This time, it was Yu Zhiqian's headset that made the contribution. Without the headset, the soldiers on the first floor would not have been able to convey the news of the sneak attack to Xie Jinyuan, because the location of the stairs had been blocked by the Japanese.
However, Yu Zhiqian's headset was able to contact Yan Qi and others, and reported the situation on the first floor to Xie Jinyuan. After receiving the news, Xie Jinyuan immediately led the reserve team, as well as the wounded on the fourth floor, to quickly support the first floor.
When Xie Jinyuan and others arrived, Yu Zhiqian could no longer remember how many Japanese soldiers he had killed. He felt that the Japanese soldiers around him were pouring in continuously, and there were fewer and fewer comrades around him. They were surrounded by people from both sides and suddenly appeared from behind. The Japanese made the defenders on the first floor unable to react in time, and many of them were attacked by the Japanese.
When they realized that there was a Japanese sneak attack behind them, they immediately formed a circle and continued to resist the Japanese. The two sides engaged in brutal hand-to-hand combat, and this time, the Japanese had the advantage in numbers.
The bloody battle lasted for more than an hour. When the sun rose, the attack was repulsed. The Japanese left corpses on the ground. On the first floor of Sihang Warehouse, there were dozens of comrades lying next to Yu Zhiqian. They had Some have died, and some were seriously injured.
