War satisfies, or once satisfied, man's aggressive instinct, but it also satisfies man's desire for plunder, destruction, and cruel discipline and force! ------- "Quotations from Kongchen"
Outside Hangzhou, Wang Shanhu, commander of the Hainan Army's Second Field Army, held a telescope in his hand and observed the Japanese position opposite.
Wang Shanhu's expression was very solemn. The defending troops on the opposite side were the Japanese 42nd Division and the 61st Division. This was his first time commanding a large group army in combat, and he felt both excited and a little uneasy.
The mission of the Hainan Army's First Field Army is to relieve the city of Nanjing and complete the plan to encircle the Japanese army with the parachute division. The mission of the Second Army is to capture Hangzhou and push the front to the edge of Shanghai. In the second phase of the attack, Hainan
The army is expected to retake Shanghai, the Pearl of the Orient.
"How is the condition of the soldiers on the front line?" Wang Shanhu asked. The soldiers of the Second Army had just arrived in Hangzhou by car and were about to participate in the battle. The emotions of the soldiers were the focus of Wang Shanhu's attention.
"Everything is going very well! The soldiers are still repairing, and the logistics department has prepared hot food!" the major chief of staff raised his head and replied.
Then Wang Shanhu took out a pocket watch from his pocket and looked at the time. The current time was three forty in the morning, and there were still two hours before the full-scale attack.
At 5:10 in the morning, the Hainan Army's attack on Hangzhou officially started. The God of War roared deafeningly, and the explosion of fire illuminated the vast night sky.
The bombardment lasted for a full fifteen minutes. Although the Japanese artillery units bravely fought back at the Hainan Army, the gap in heavy firepower could not be made up by courage alone. Covered by the Hainan Army's superior artillery fire, it severely ravaged the Japanese positions.
"Our unit was violently attacked by the enemy. The soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Please ask for tactical guidance!"
At the Japanese military headquarters, the commander of the regiment, Lieutenant Colonel, shouted loudly on the phone. The fire that exploded from time to time around him made his face red with panic.
The intensity of the Hainan Army's offensive was beyond the Japanese army's expectations. The Hainan Army's heavy artillery brigade, which accompanied the Second Army as it marched north, fired even thirty-two large-caliber artillery pieces over 200 mm. Counting other artillery pieces of various sizes, the total number exceeded
Hundred Gates, it can be said that no artillery unit on the battlefield in the Far East has such luxurious equipment.
"Buzz...buzz...buzz..." The sound of flying fighter planes sounded from the horizon, and a dozen black dots slowly emerged in the dim morning light.
It was still dark at this time, and it was impossible to see which side's fighter planes were coming from under the dim night sky. Some veterans of the Hainan Army looked at the sky in confusion, then their expressions changed drastically, and they quickly rushed into the trenches.
There is a big difference between the Hainan Army's fighter jets and the Japanese Army's fighter jets. The Japanese Army's fighter jets fly slower and the sound caused by their high-power engines is relatively deep and heavy, while the Hainan Army's fighter jets have a streamlined fuselage and make less sound when flying.
Therefore, some veterans of the Hainan Army can distinguish between ourselves and the enemy simply by the sound of aircraft flying, thereby avoiding unnecessary casualties.
Of course, there are also some foolish young men among the recruits. Among them was a Hainan Army recruit who looked up at the sky stupidly, but the dim sunlight could not allow him to distinguish the identity of the other recruit.
"Get down, it's a plane of little devils!" the veteran next to him shouted and threw down the recruit. The bullets fired by the Japanese aircraft flew past their bodies, and the dust splashed by the machine gun bullets fascinated the recruit's eyes.
.
Another Japanese plane roared over, and the god of death had already placed the sickle at the necks of the two men.
"Be patient, this is fatal!" the veteran roared angrily, grabbing the recruit's arm with one hand, and the two rolled into the trench nearby.
"Damn! It hurts me so much!" He fell from a height of about two meters in the trench and happened to sit on an angular stone. In an instant, the veteran even felt that his butt was broken into four pieces.
After breathing for a long time, he finally regained his composure. The veteran turned to look at the recruit. Seeing that he still looked frightened, he could not help but burst into anger and cursed.
"You idiot! Don't you know how to hide? Or are you tired of living?" Judging from the veteran's accent, he should be a northerner, and his cursing accent has a strong northern flavor.
In the sky, more than a dozen planes flying over from Shanghai were still circling in the sky, and from time to time they used their cannons to swoop down and attack the Hainan Army positions on the ground.
Along the ditch of the trench, several Hainan Army soldiers came running over, a man who seemed to be familiar with the veteran. He saw that the veteran's face was red as pig liver, thinking that he was injured, and quickly asked
: "Old Wei, are you injured?"
"It's okay, just a little skin injury!" Old Wei smiled forcefully, but the corners of his mouth still twitched because of the pain in his butt.
A medical soldier soon arrived, but Lao Weitou refused to let the medical soldier see the injury on his butt even at all costs.
"Old Wei, the big guys here are all men. You are not a little wife, and you are so secretive that you are afraid of a ball!" A comrade on the side joked, and the others followed suit.
Unable to resist the medical soldiers, Old Wei had no choice but to take off his pants. The bruise on his buttocks was not a big problem, but there was a very red and swollen area. Applying medicine would take at least a day or two to relieve the pain.
The medical soldier took out a small medicine bottle from his bag and looked like he was going to apply it himself. Seeing this, Old Wei, who couldn't stand it for a long time, quickly interrupted him and took the small medicine bottle and motioned for him to apply it himself.
"Give me something and I'll do it myself! Go and do your work!" Old Wei took the medicine bottle, thanked the medical soldier, and waved his hand.
At the same time, Chen Peng, commander of the Seventh Company of the Third Regiment directly under the Second Army of the Hainan Army, looked at the Japanese fighter planes hovering in the sky and cursed angrily: "Damn it! Where are the anti-aircraft machine guns? Shoot them down!"
The two anti-aircraft machine guns on the position opened fire one after another, and some soldiers cooperated with each other. The light Czech machine gunner loaded the bracket on the shoulders of his comrades and fired at the Japanese aircraft in the sky.
Although the machine gun has a range of up to one thousand meters and can theoretically shoot down aircraft, in practice the real effect is not obvious. However, the possibility of success is very slim. Compared with anti-aircraft guns, the caliber of machine gun bullets is about the size of a pinky finger and an egg.
difference.
The bullets flying out are so light that even if they hit the aircraft, as long as they do not hit the fatal point, the impact on the aircraft will be negligible.
"Ta...ta...ta...!"
A Japanese plane was attracted by the anti-aircraft machine gun, and soon swooped down, pouring down two long strings of bullets, and the machine gunners had to take cover.
When Chen Peng saw that the anti-aircraft machine gun had no effect at all and instead attracted fire from Japanese aircraft, he immediately went into battle shirtless.
"Here I go! You hang up the bullet chain!" Chen Peng ordered the machine gunner to load the bullet chain, while he himself used the anti-aircraft machine gun.
[For this shot of a duel between a machine gun and an airplane, you can refer to the third part of "First Blood" played by Stallone, where Rambo uses an anti-aircraft machine gun to kill an armed helicopter!]
Even if the Japanese aircraft had already noticed Chen Peng, who was standing in the troops and giving instructions loudly, a Japanese aircraft pounced directly on him.
Chen Peng tried his best to avoid being hurt, but he was still hit by a bullet because he couldn't avoid it. A piece of flesh was severely cut off in his back, and blood immediately seeped out.
"Come here, a few people, carry Captain Chen down." A medical soldier walked into the trench with his waist bent, and after seeing Chen Peng's injury.
"I'm not dead yet, why are you carrying me down?" Chen Peng pushed away the stretcher, stood up with support on the trench wall, and said: "I am the commander, I am not going anywhere. I have my own
I'm staring at you here, if anyone dares to take a step back, don't blame me for being unkind!"
In fact, there is no need for Chen Peng to emphasize it, because so far, the Hainan Army has not seen a single column deserting before the battle. According to the Hainan Army service system, the families of active soldiers can be exempted from 15% of the tax. It can be said that one person serving as a soldier can enjoy the benefits of the whole family.
Moreover, Hainan Army has always been well-known for its high internal benefits. Those who are killed in action and those who are disabled and retired will receive generous pensions so that they can spend the rest of their lives peacefully, and they will receive government relief every month.
And if you are a deserter on the battlefield, you will be tried by a military court and will be severely punished. If you are a deserter on the battlefield, the commander can just shoot him.
Buzz...buzz...buzz...! Another wave of planes flew over Hangzhou City. Judging from the sound, some veterans of the Hainan Army were sure that it was the sound of our own Hainan Air Force.
Amidst the roar of the engines, the fighter planes that came all the way from the Hainan Army gradually emerged. The shadows of hundreds of planes almost covered the sky. The planes at different altitudes maintained their own formations, but they kept the war going.
Together, the projections enveloped the scattered buildings and long streets of the ancient imperial city.
"So many planes? They are our country's planes!" In Hangzhou, when some people saw the blue sky and white sun on the wings of the planes, they began to cheer loudly.
Although Hangzhou has been occupied by the Japanese for some time, piecemeal resistance has never stopped. The group of planes that blocked the sky greatly inspired the people of Hangzhou to resist, and they saw a lot of things in the world.
Although they all recognized it as an airplane, they had never seen so many airplanes.
Soon, after flying over the Japanese positions, countless black spots fell from the belly of the plane, and the bombs fell towards the Japanese troops underground with a screaming sound.
"Ji Er~, Jiu~! Boom!" Aerial bombs were continuously thrown on the Japanese position, and violent explosions ignited the battlefield. Moreover, the Japanese artillery unit, which was discovered in advance, received special attention, and for a time the defense of Hangzhou City was
Those in the Japanese division who were bombed fell on their backs.
