Chapter 184 Great Victory!
"Bah!" Xiao Lei only gave her this bite.
Takahashi Mika was not annoyed, she was still smiling: "Only the incompetent can become angry and be so rude."
This sentence made Xiao Lei furious again. The country's strength was inferior to that of others, so she really could only be incompetent and furious.
Wei Mingyang looked at the gunboats rushing over. The "Anzhai" at the front was less than 300 meters away from the shore.
Above the Yangtze River, even a distance of three hundred meters is not something ordinary soldiers can swim across.
As soon as he said "Hit!", he immediately held the barrel of the gun with his left hand and began to adjust the angle.
Lu Fei had already warmed the first cannonball with his hands. He quickly picked up the cannonball with both hands and put it in through the muzzle.
"Boom!" The 82mm caliber artillery shell is much larger and heavier.
The noise when it comes out of the chamber is also much louder.
Wei Mingyang did not let Lu Fei stop and ordered loudly: "Keep bombing!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There were only three 82mm artillery shells in a box. Yang Dazhu and the soldiers from the guard platoon followed the soldiers who came to collect the shells and kept opening the boxes.
Install the fuze on each cannonball, and pack the propellant tube and propellant.
Lu Fei and Wei Mingyang cooperated tacitly and moved quickly. The speed of twenty-five shells per minute is not bragging.
The "Anzhai" rushed to the front. This gunboat carried Captain Inote Saburo and one of his detachments.
This is also part of the plan. The first team to hit the beach is of course the most dangerous.
The more dangerous the place, the more a commander is needed to supervise the battle from the front. This glorious task is handed over to Captain Inote Saburo.
And the task of being the first to go ashore and establish a position on the beach was also given to the Pig Hand Team.
Looking at the south bank getting closer and closer, the excitement in Captain Inote Saburo's eyes became stronger and stronger.
It was already this time: there was still no movement on the shore.
If there is a defensive team at this position, they should also fire now.
No artillery shells flew out and no bullets flew over. This can only prove that this position is not defended by the national army.
In this way, as the first team to land, this team easily won the first victory of landing on the beach.
This achievement comes too easily.
Taichi Inukai and Naoki Kitomura had just been inspired by the deeds of Captain Inotetsu and were thinking about showing off their skills when they landed ashore.
The result was that he was ready on his side, but there was no opponent on the shore.
Without the national troops stationed on the shore, where would they get the military exploits they wanted?
Without the national troops guarding the shore, Naoki Guitou Village felt that his dream of realizing a class leap was shattered.
"How can there be no counterattack? The national army should organize a counterattack!"
"Yes! The national army's counterattack should be as violent as possible. The more violent their counterattack, the more outstanding the military exploits we will win after we defeat them." Staff Sergeant Taichi Inukai said loudly.
He also has a dream of becoming a general. Isn’t there a saying: A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier.
Regardless of whether he is a good soldier or not, at least Staff Sergeant Taichi Inukai dreams of becoming a general.
It's just that in the Japanese army, not to mention becoming a general, even if you want to be a second lieutenant, a warrant officer must graduate from a regular military school.
However, ordinary civilians are not qualified to enter military academies, which puts an end to their dream of becoming soldiers who were ordinary civilians.
Officers like Captain Inote Saburo who were promoted without ever entering a military academy were completely an exception.
This is also the reason why Captain Inote Saburo works so hard. If someone makes a three-pointer, he has to do a ten-pointer.
Sergeant Inukai Taichi never imagined that his request would be fully met, and that the national army's counterattack had indeed arrived.
It's also very violent, even giving more than it wants.
Maybe it was too violent, and it and Naoki Kitomura couldn't bear it at all.
Wei Mingyang was very fair. Every gunboat that washed up and landed on the beach had a cannonball placed on the bow one-third and the stern one-third.
He didn't know the wishes of the Japs like Taichi Inukai and Naoki Kitomura, so he just sent express delivery to the gunboat that rushed ahead.
In this way: the "Anzhai" was the first to receive two shells. The two Japanese soldiers who were chatting and thinking about the future were blown away together with the entire team around them.
The "Anzhai" was bombed, and the "Toba" which was less than one position behind it did not react at all.
The gunboat captain Tsukimi Sanseven just glanced coldly at the gunboat that was competing with him for the first place. It had slowed down, and the deck was covered in blood and flesh.
There are still several fires burning, but no Japanese have been seen rushing to put out the fires.
Tsukimi Thirty-seven commanded the "Toba" to maintain first place for less than ten seconds when two shells fell.
Its fate was no different from that of the "Anzhai": the Marines and Japanese soldiers on the deck were bloody and bloody, and the gunboat was blasted with two big holes.
A large stream of river water was flowing in, but the captain of Tsukimi Thirty-seven could not see all this. It returned to the arms of Amaterasu as soon as the shell exploded.
The explosion started from the gunboat "Anzhai". This kind of explosion was like a severe infectious disease, spreading all the way from the "Anzhai" to the "Toba" and then to the "Hotsu".
"," "Hira", "Kenta", "Atami", "Futami", "Kuri", "Ume", "Len", and "Kitaka" exploded next to each other,
Fire.
These gunboats were like a competition, exploding and bursting into flames just like they were competing to be the first to hit the beach. From the explosion of the first gunboat to the explosion of the last gunboat, the total time spent was less than two minutes.
In two minutes, all twelve gunboats exploded and burst into flames.
The twelve small destroyers following them were so fast that before they could react, this explosive contagious disease came to them.
Wei Mingyang had no intention of sinking these destroyers with a displacement of thousands of tons at once:
To be precise, it's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't sink these destroyers like gunboats in a short time.
Therefore, he could only send one cannon shell to the captain's cabin of each destroyer, and an average of two cannon shells on the deck.
A destroyer with a displacement of 1,700 tons sent three 82mm mortar shells, killing the Marines on the deck.
We cannot send more to them for the time being.
Four minutes! In just four minutes, there were 24 battleships in the Navy's Third Fleet with billowing smoke rising from them.
The Japanese Navy's Third Fleet only had twenty-nine warships on the Yangtze River at this time, and twenty-four of them suddenly lost their combat capabilities.
Four minutes, only four minutes! The powerful Third Fleet of the Japanese Navy only has the flagship "Izumo", the "Tianlong" with a displacement of more than 3,000 tons, and the "Tyuta" with a displacement of 1,750 tons.
Chapter completed!
