Chapter 28 Japanese Siege
Among the others are white-haired fellow villagers, honest men and women from small families. These people are the epitome of the millions of Chinese people.
Looking at these sincere faces and listening to the simple but shocking words, Fang Xiaoyu felt aroused in her heart, her eyes were a little wet, and she clenched her fists secretly, and her heart was silent. I, China, have these thousands of simple children, and the Chinese people with the flow of Yanhuang blood, can they be bullied by mere barbarians and Japanese pirates? One day, the glorious China that has been passed down for five thousand years will burst out with a light that will make the world stand in the east of the world.
In the eight years of the War of Resistance Against Japan, China paid 30 million lives for this, and countless people with lofty ideals wrote unyielding chapters with their own blood and their lives.
Fang Xiaoyu slowly picked up a steamed bun and handed it to the runny little guy, touched the messy hair gently and said, "Little guy, it's delicious. Grow up early and beat the Japanese!"
The red sun was rising, outside Teng County, more than a dozen cannons lined up side by side. A Japanese officer with an assistant sword in his hand was covered with a fierce look on his face, and a cruel sneer flashed in his eyes. He looked down at the watch on his wrist. He suddenly pulled out the assistant sword and waved it hard towards Teng County town in front, and shouted: "Fire the cannon."
Suddenly, more than a dozen cannons that had already entered the chamber emitted a deafening roar, and emitted dazzling flames.
The shells roared out and fell into the city. Suddenly, the city seemed to be the end of the world. The landing point of each shell was in a mess. The buildings collapsed with a bang, and many innocent people died in the artillery fire.
As the land shook, a shell exploded on the city wall. How could the brick-making city wall withstand such shells? A small gap immediately appeared.
Fortunately, the city walls of Teng County were extraordinary and extremely thick. Even if the Japanese cannons hit it, they could not collapse the city wall. At most, there would be gaps.
While having breakfast, Fang Xiaoyu had not moved his hand away from the little guy's head and could smell the whistling sound of shells coming through the air.
Just hearing the howling sound, Fang Xiaoyu reacted and shouted immediately: "Enemy attack, lie down for me!"
While speaking, Fang Xiaoyu pressed the little guy in front of him and his father to the ground.
Soon a shell exploded a hundred meters away, and the earth shook, and gravel dust fell from the air, and many gravel fell on everyone.
Several people were blown up, but the bones were left untouched on the spot, with broken limbs flying across, and a broken arm was falling in front of Fang Xiaoyu.
Looking at the cruel situation, Fang Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel nervous. If the shell landed near him, no matter how great he was, he might have been blown to pieces.
Lying on the ground, Fang Xiaoyu looked around and saw that his few people were worthy of being veterans, and they all looked for places to avoid shelling.
It is said that recruits are afraid of cannons and veterans are afraid of guns. This is true. The roar of cannons is indeed terrifying, but for veterans, as long as they are calm and do not know how to dodge like recruits, they run around during shelling, and the possibility of being bombarded by shelling is very small.
Wang Hu now pressed against the corner of the wall of the city and stuffed the steamed buns in his hand into his mouth, and said to Fang Xiaoyu: "Squad leader, come here quickly, it's safe enough."
Indeed, Wang Hu was very good at choosing places. He hid in the corner of the city. Even if it was bombardment by the Japanese heavy artillery, without two or three shells bombarded one place, he would probably not be able to collapse the extremely strong city corner.
The people who came to deliver food all around were lying on the ground because of Fang Xiaoyu's reminder. They were still in shock at this moment, obviously they were frightened by the sudden shelling.
In fact, the reactions of these people are reasonable. Not to mention these ordinary people, even Fang Xiaoyu was shocked.
Fortunately, Fang Xiaoyu's psychological quality was not bad. After reacting, his expression calmed down and said to the people around him: "Everyone is about to leave here soon. It won't be long before the Japanese army will launch an attack. It is too dangerous for you to stay here."
Watching these people arched and left, Fang Xiaoyu listened intently, and immediately jumped up, like a gust of wind. In a blink of an eye, he crossed hundreds of meters to the corner of the city.
Just then, a shell fell down, blowing the place where Xiaoyu was staying in front of him into flat ground. The original cart was blown into pieces flying all over the sky.
Fang Xiaoyu felt scared when she saw this scene. Fortunately, she ran fast. If she was too late, she would probably have no bones left.
Not to mention Fang Xiaoyu was scared, even Hou Ming, Cheng Laoshi, Bai Xiucai and others were shocked when they saw it. Their own squad leader was so lucky that he walked in front of the gate of hell.
Leaning against the corner of the wall, the roar in my ears came from time to time, and the entire Teng County town was shrouded in a mass of artillery fire.
Woo woo, suddenly, the whistling sound of a plane breaking through the air came from the air. Fang Xiaoyu looked up and his expression changed, and he exclaimed: "Airplane bombing!"
Compared with cannons hitting across the air, aircraft bombing has certain purpose and accuracy.
Fang Xiaoyu saw a bomber suddenly lowering the plane, and several bombs fell down, and the firepower point exposed to the pilot's sight was razed to the ground on the spot.
Several soldiers and a machine gun firepower point were destroyed like this. Looking at the whole city, there were definitely more than one position that was blown up by name.
Wang Hu opened his eyes wide and murmured to himself: "Grandma, this iron bird is too powerful. I don't know how many brothers will be killed by the bomb."
Without air supremacy, it can be said that there is not even a single anti-aircraft machine gun that can threaten the opponent. The Japanese bombers completely reduced the flight altitude without any scruples to bomb. Some bombers even poured the bombs they carried, but not only did not leave, but the machine guns were fired. Many of the frightened people were hit, and the scene was extremely miserable.
At least Fang Xiaoyu saw an old man being shot by an airborne machine gun with his own eyes. His whole body was cut off by a fire snake, and his upper body fell to the ground. He crawled miserably for several seconds before he lost his breath.
Fang Xiaoyu's men were frightened. Chen Kui shouted, trying to hold the machine gun to deal with the Japanese plane, but Fang Xiaoyu jumped and pressed it tightly, slapped the other party in the head and shouted: "What are you crazy? If you want to die, don't drag your brothers!"
If Chen Kui really opened fire with a machine gun in his arms, the possibility of shooting down the bomber was almost zero, but the chance of being subjected to the bomber's retaliatory strafing was 100%.
Once they are targeted by the bomber, Fang Xiaoyu doesn't think that they can stop it. It would be strange if they don't lose a few lives.
The cannon and the plane bombed for more than an hour. When the shelling stopped and the plane left, a rapid whistle sounded in the messy ruins. It was the platoon leader Chen Kai who whistled and summoned the troops.
Fang Xiaoyu's expression changed slightly when he heard the rapid whistle. He waved his hand and said to Chen Kui and Wang Hu: "You two bring you guys with me to support the platoon leader and others. Everyone else nailed me here. You must not let the Japanese break through from us."
As he said that, Fang Xiaoyu said to Bai Xiucai, "Bai Xiucai, I will leave this to you. Even if you die, you will not lose your position."
Bai Xiucai immediately saluted: "Don't worry, the person is in the position!"
At this moment, a burst of rapid gunfire came from not far away. Fang Xiaoyu only heard the gunfire location and knew that it was the company's key defense. Company commander Dong Wu even brought a platoon of troops there.
Now it seems that there is a problem with the city wall guarded by Dong Wu, otherwise it would be impossible for him to summon reinforcements with such a hurry.
Holding a machine gun, Fang Xiaoyu rushed away with his waist. Chen Kui and Wang Hu followed Fang Xiaoyu with a clever look on his face.
Turning over a high-rise building, Fang Xiaoyu happened to see a section of the city wall collapse not far away. Above the ruins, more than a dozen or twenty figures were shooting their guns outwards, desperately shooting to stop the Japanese army's attack.
The hundreds of Japanese troops outside the city were scattered in scattered lines. When they suddenly saw the figures of Japanese troops, their momentum was extremely amazing.
