The Japanese offensive became more and more fierce

The large-caliber bombshell completely ignored the life and death of the puppet army that was close to him, and kept falling on both sides of Shanghai Tang. The earth shook violently in the endless explosion.

The first-line position has been completely flattened, and the second-line position, more than 30 meters away from the first-line position, has become the front line of defense. The officers and soldiers of the Second Regiment, hiding in the anti-aircraft artillery hole of the Second Regiment, had different expressions, listening to the endless explosions outside. Now the five battalions that the First Regiment and the Second Regiment have been removed have been formed into two battalions, and the third battalion, which has been in the front, has been persisting for nearly an hour, and one-third of the entire battalion has suffered casualties.

A 35Umm heavy artillery shell shot straight into the trench. The grenade detonated at the moment of touching the ground. There was only a loud "boom". Under the impact of the violent shock wave that was infinitely amplified by the relatively closed space, the mud on the pit walls on both sides of the trench peeled off in large pieces.

At the first moment of the explosion, the sergeant squad leader hiding in the anti-cannon hole changed his face and shouted "Lying down". Thirteen soldiers in the anti-cannon hole fell to the ground desperately in the roar. The sound of "dong dong" was heard continuously, and the shells raging in the trenches were thrust hard on the steel plates used to block the hole. Unexpectedly, several sharp shrapnel penetrated the steel plates about twenty millimeters thick and shot directly onto the mud wall.

"My God"

The officers and soldiers who were sitting upright exclaimed while spitting out dust in their mouths, looking at the shrapnel clearly visible on the wall of the pit with fear.

"Xipi, what round of artillery bombardment was this the Japanese? Is their shells worth it?" The sergeant squad leader listened to the power of the explosion outside and shook his head in fear. Amid the deafening rumbling, the soldiers next to him only saw the squad leader's mouth move, but he couldn't hear clearly what he said.

Five minutes after the shelling, the barrage extended, and a shaking anti-cannon hole on the third line position was directly hit by a 3mm grenade fired from the main gun of the heavy cruiser. Before the thirteen officers and soldiers in the anti-cannon hole could react, there was a loud "boom" sound, and a flash of fire, and the entire air-raid shelter was turned to the ground. A squad of officers and soldiers instantly turned into bloody rain, mixed with blood-soaked soil and spread to the ground. Broken gun parts were everywhere inside and outside the trenches.

The high-intensity artillery lasted for nearly ten minutes. As the cannon body gradually stopped, a large group of dark clouds in the southeast sky quickly approached the battlefield with artillery fire. The deafening roar was getting closer and closer. Eighteen nine six ships exploded and flew over the battlefield under the escort of nine nine six ships.

This is the seventh time that a Japanese fighter jet has taken off today. Many HNA pilots have been persisting since the morning and are extremely tired. However, the fleet commander issued a death order to eliminate the opponent at all costs, so everyone is gritting their teeth and persevering.

The two 96 ships that were exploring the way roared and rushed over lightly. The height of more than 100 meters allowed the officers and soldiers on the position to see the hideous and terrifying faces of the Japanese pilot in the cockpit.

The Japanese fighter jets spun around the low altitude for a few times, found nothing, and then expanded the scope of reconnaissance and blindly shot several reed marshes and groves within two kilometers behind the position. Then they hovered in the low altitude for a few times and saw no response, so they were satisfied and pulled away.

In a small wood that is invisible in the air, after passing through the branches and leaves, the potential energy of the 7mm bullet drilled into the ground covered with fallen leaves and dead branches. With a muffled groan, several blood arrows splashed several meters high. Two anti-aircraft ammunition hands on the Japanese aircraft attack route were penetrated by several 7mm bullets. After the bullet penetrated the body, it drilled into the roots of the tree with blood.

Blood spurted out from the baby's wrist-sized wound, and white intestines flowed out through the blood hole. One of the wounded soldiers was lying in a pool of blood and his body was twitching continuously. The other soldier was shot with his eyes wide open - he passed away as soon as he was shot.

Seeing that there was no threat on the ground, the eighteen ninety-six ships quickly formed into three square formations, using six as a wave, dived down towards the battlefield where thick smoke was rolling.

The extremely huge bomber group dived above the position, and the six nineteen six ships in front trembled, and twelve 250-kilogram bombs were yelling at the position where the flames soared into the sky.

The power of the dive bomber's fixed-point bombing was very terrifying. The fire swelled up, and large sections of trenches were shocked and jumped up, and many trenches collapsed. The two anti-cannon holes that were directly hit were quickly razed to the ground. The blood and flesh of the two squads of officers and soldiers hiding inside melted into a whole and could no longer be separated from each other.

The anti-cannon hole that was not directly hit also shook violently after the explosion, and the mud on the hole wall hit the heads and bodies of the officers and soldiers like raindrops.

Just as the first wave of bombers was lifted and the other two waves of fighter jets entered the flight orbit in turn for diving operations, there was only a "dongdong" sound of gunfire. Thirty-six dark red ballistics broke through the blue sky and rushed straight to the bomber formation of the Japanese HNA. The angry 40mm anti-aircraft artillery shells of the New Second Division officers and soldiers were approaching the target. The height fuse was activated. Black smoke clouds exploded between the blue sky and white clouds, and countless sharp fragments flew out from the center of the explosion, sweeping towards the Japanese bomber group like a swarm.

Almost at the same time, thirty-six millimeter Olekon anti-aircraft cannons roared, and orange chains of fire woven into dense fire nets in the air, covering the Japanese bomber group. When the bullet marks representing death cut through the blue sky and rolled towards the unprepared Nine-Six bomber group, all the Japanese pilots howled in despair.

You should know that after dive bombers enter dive and climbing tracks, they cannot avoid movements for a period of time. Therefore, as long as the advance amount is calculated, it is undoubtedly a tragic for the bomber.

The Japanese Navy Air Force tried hard to lift the joystick and stepped on the accelerator. The aircraft engine roared in pain, and the fuselage trembled and tried to accelerate, trying to get rid of the artillery shells that followed. Unfortunately, no matter how fast the human reaction was, it was not as fast as the ball of artillery shells that rushed at the speed of sound.

The fuselage of a 96-6 bomber that was pulling up suddenly shook. Hundreds of sharp fragments shredded the rear wing of the plane. The bomber that had lost control made a strange cry and turned to the ground. The altitude of two or three hundred meters did not give the dizzy pilot a chance to parachutize. Just after the 96-6 bomber had intimate contact with the ground, a huge fireball splashed.

Another ball of fragments passed through the abdomen of a 96-6 ship, covering another bomber that was diving. With the sound of "bang", the sharp shrapnel easily tore open the outer armor of the plane and plunged into the fuel tank. The plane quickly caught fire and burned, and then turned into a ball of gorgeous fireworks in the air, and the steel fragments fell to the ground like raindrops.

What caused a more fatal blow to the Japanese 96th ship explosion group was the thirty-six crossfire chains. The bombers that were crazily pulling up and diving had no ability to avoid it. The 20mm anti-aircraft gun was desperately spitting out shells at a speed of 0 rounds per second. The 96th ships exploded in pursuit of shells, either turning into gorgeous sparks or falling like turkeys.

In the end, only two 96 ships broke out from the anti-aircraft firepower of the anti-aircraft artillery battalion, and one of them was still dragging black smoke on its butt.

The nine pilots of the 96-Six battleships were circling high in the air and frantically rushed to the exposed air defense positions in groups of three.

The officers and soldiers of the air defense battalion, who had been prepared, used the Erick anti-aircraft guns as a group of gates and four 40mm Bofos anti-aircraft guns to point at the Japanese fighter jets that were rushing towards them.

The earth began to roar, and orange fire whips and twelve blood red ballistics shot into the air, woven into a dense fire net, intercepting them in front of the Japanese fighter planes.

Experienced and outstanding Japanese carrier-based aircraft pilots operated the 96-6 ship battle with a single wing design, skillfully flew up and down in the fire network, desperately trying to enter the attack route

"Boom--"

Two consecutive 40mm high-air grenades exploded in front of a 96-ship battle. Amid the terrified screams of the Japanese pilots, shrapnel shot like rain shot into the cab, and a large mass of blood mist raised in the cockpit. The pilot died on the spot. The Japanese plane that had lost control roared and fell head-on to the ground.

"boom--"

The moment it landed, fuel and ammunition exploded at the same time, and a huge fireball burst open. The fuselage was thrown into the air like a toy, turning into countless pieces and flying in all directions.

However, there were still Japanese fighter jets cutting into the attack route. During the flames in the nose, two fire whips swept across an air defense position.

Wherever the fire whip passed, blood mist rose, accompanied by shrill screams. A 40mm Bofos anti-aircraft gun was shooting violently into the air, and a rain of bullets were also shrouded in bullets. Amid the metal impact of "Dangdang", sparks were shot everywhere, and several 7mm bullets clamored and drilled into the gunner's head. The strange "bang" sounded, and the high-speed rotating bullets shattered the gunner's head, and the headless corpse that was spraying blood fell on the bullet shell piled up like a hill.

However, the 96 ship battle was not pleasing. As the exposed ammunition box was hit, the plane exploded in the air.

During the five-minute air battle, eight of nine fighter jets were blown up, and the remaining one was dragged with thick smoke and flew towards the southeastern sea.

The air defense forces on the ground had no time to cheer and celebrate, and immediately packed up their cannons and machine guns, pushed, dragged, and pulled them to other places. After about a quarter of an hour, Japanese ship guns roared and covered reed marshes and groves, and soon lit these places into fires.

"Boom--"

A sound of mine explosion came from the side and rear of the front command post of the New Second Division, followed by gunfire, and then another sound of killing sounds resounding through the sky, with the sound of mortar firing and explosions intersecting the sound of mortar firing and explosions.

In the command post built of reinforced concrete, everyone's face changed. Dai Ziran rushed to the window, stretched his head out, and asked loudly outside: "What happened?"

Qian Zhisheng, deputy battalion commander of the Guard Battalion, rushed into the room, and did not care about wiping the dust on his body, and said to Wu Ming: "Minister seat, there are nearly two thousand Japanese attacking here. Master seat, you can take people to evacuate quickly."

"joke"

Wu Ming's eyes, which were originally half-closed, suddenly widened, and his eyes were full of cold light. He patted his military uniform and said as if nothing had happened: "Since the establishment of the New Second Division, there were no division commanders who escaped. There were no now, and there wouldn't be any in the future."

The sound of gunfires is getting closer and closer, and even the Japanese devils are shouting and killing sounds are heard. Qian Zhisheng begged: "There are many Japanese soldiers, and our guard battalion has only more than 700 people in total. If you can't resist-"

Listening to the increasing gunfire and explosions, Dai Ziran also persuaded: "Master, you are the backbone of the entire division. If there is any mistake, our new second division will be over. Now that the Japanese army has attacked us, you should transfer quickly."

"Okay, don't say it anymore"

Wu Ming coldly interrupted Dai Ziran: "The frontier command of Fuzhen Temple is very important. It is located between the front-line reserve position and Pinghu. If the Japanese army occupy this place, our army will be cut into two sections, and the head and tail cannot be connected. Once the Japanese army goes further and attacks front and back, our northern wing defense line will collapse at any time: Moreover, all the soldiers of our division are fighting bloody now. If they know that their division commanders retreat in the face of war, what would they think?"

Dai Ziran and Qian Zhisheng looked at each other and closed their mouths tactfully.

Wu Ming waved his hand and ordered: "Zhisheng, you will gather all the civilian personnel of the command center as a reserve team now. Tell everyone that when I finish my duties, I will carry a gun and fight the Japanese side by side..."

Before he finished speaking, several mortar shells exploded outside the gate of Fuzhen Temple. With the rumbling sound, dust on the roof of the command center, which was about 60 meters away from the explosion point, rustled down.

"Teacher, it's too dangerous here, you'd better transfer... The division command is still here. As the main person in charge of the Staff Office, I will stick to it to the end."

Dai Ziran was anxious and wanted to command a few guards to pull Wu Ming. You should know that Wu Ming is the soul of the New Second Division. With him, even if the New Second Division is completely destroyed, it can still make a comeback with Mao Liangwu's foundation. If Wu Ming is here, it will be useless to defeat the 114th Division in front. At that time, the New Second Division will inevitably be divided and Mao Liangwu will become a fat meat at the slaughter of others.

"Retreat for me"

Wu Ming angrily shouted at the guards who had retreated to the circumference: "Do you want me to be a deserter and make me never raise my head in front of all the officers and soldiers of the division?"

"Master's seat--" Qian Zhisheng wanted to persuade Wu Ming again.

"Don't say anything more. I'm going to leave unless I carry my body." Wu Ming said with a murderous look on his face and extremely serious: "Qian Zhisheng, from now on, the guard battalion will be nailed to the position like a nail. Remember, the entire command center and I will not take a step back. I will let all the soldiers of the division know that I will stick to my post like them and would rather die than retreat."

"yes"

Qian Zhisheng stomped his feet hatefully, turned around and left, loudly summoned the civilians from the division headquarters to rush to the battlefield where the fierce battles were in full swing.

Seeing Wu Ming so stubborn, Dai Ziran sighed and walked to the phone to pick up the microphone. If nothing unexpected happened, the telephone line had been cut off, and there was no sound in the microphone. He shook his head helplessly, called Sun Chengyuan, who was anxious, and asked him to gather the guards quickly, send people to check the line, and then set up defenses outside the command center. Once the Japanese army breaks through the defense of the guard battalion, the command center will carry out the final battle.

Wu Ming pondered for a while and suddenly sneered: "The Japanese trump card has been revealed, and it's time for our Jedi to fight back next."

"The trump card?" Dai Ziran was slightly stunned.

"Yes, this unit that sneaked into our hinterland to attack the field hospital and the front of the division is the trump card of the Japanese commander." Wu Ming smiled sarcastically: "I thought that Shigeji Momochi had any ace, but that's all."

"The division seat is seated, and the Japanese army has started shelling again." Zhang Ying, who had been guarding the lookout, turned around and reported.

Wu Ming and Dai Ziran walked to the observation post, picked up their telescopes and looked at the front positions. At this time, artillery fire was everywhere on the battlefield on the northern line, and the smoke from the explosion covered the entire position on the northern line. Wu Ming and Dai Ziran could only see a rough spot. In front of the position, the puppet troops were still the leader. They bent over and shrank their necks, and were forced by the Japanese army to move forward step by step. Behind the puppet troops, there were crowds of people.

Dai Ziran put down his telescope: "The Japanese army is going to make a last try"

"I've been waiting impatiently for what I want." Wu Ming smiled disdainfully: "The Japanese army just ruined the naval aviation they are proud of. It's impossible to organize a large-scale bombing in a short period of time... The Japanese Navy Fleet's gun group has been firing for six or seven hours in a row from early morning to now. It's estimated that the gun barrels are almost worn out. The so-called one-stop action is also declining, and then the decay is a three-death way to describe them as they are instructing their troops to prepare for counterattacks. We have been passively beaten for a long time, and it's our turn to fight back."

"yes"

Dai Ziran stood at attention and hurried to convey Wu Ming's orders.
