The next morning, the Iron Blood Army Special Artillery Regiment and the Fifth Marine Brigade who cooperated with them had breakfast at 5 o'clock in the morning. The Marine soldiers observed curiously, these legendary invincible private troops in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.
.
Before the senior executives of the Fifth Brigade of the Land War had time to ask about their mission, a group of iron-blooded soldiers brought them a lot of strange masks.
These masks are made of rubber. After being put on, you can completely wrap the head. There are two glass mirrors on the top so that you don’t have the vision blocked. There are two small iron cans in the mouth.
This strange thing is the gas mask. With this thing, the role of the special artillery regiment is about to emerge. Some non-commissioned officers from the Iron Blood Army stayed to guide the Marine Corps soldiers how to use gas masks, and at the same time told them to wait until the start
The mask must not be taken off during attack.
When these non-commissioned officers taught Marine soldiers how to use gas masks, the Iron Blood Army soldiers standing next to the truck had already set up artillery. The shells with yellow circles on the warheads were carefully slapped by the Iron Blood Army soldiers.
Remove from the car and place it neatly near the cannon.
Because the steel mill is small, it is impossible to install artillery, and they do not need to estimate the possible artillery fire revenge of the other party. Under the command of the commander, these Iron Blood soldiers quickly pushed the shells into the cannon chamber. With a command, they were seventy
Six-mm cannons opened fire one after another.
After these shells fell into the factory, only a small sound was heard. Then these shells that seemed to be dud shots produced a faint yellow-colored gas.
Some sentries soon discovered these unexploded shells, but they had no idea what these unexploded shells were for. Looking at the dim yellow gas gradually spreading, some Japanese soldiers seemed to realize the danger and hid in the distance.
hide.
These people did not hide much, because more and more shells were shot into the factory one after another, and the pale yellow gas quickly spread throughout the steel plant. The Japanese soldiers who were exposed to these gases began to cough violently, and some were lying on the ground.
It seems like I want to cough out my lungs.
Not only these Japanese sentries, but also those Japanese soldiers who were sleeping in the temporary barracks in the factory, were awakened by coughing one after another, and the entire factory was noisy.
Soon, the Japanese soldiers who were the first to inhale gas began to feel difficult to breathe. They opened their mouths and kept taking deep breaths, but they seemed to be unable to breathe the slightest air. They pinched their necks, their eyes slowly raised, and their faces gradually turned.
purple.
All the Japanese soldiers began to experience the same symptoms, which was the first poison gas and phosgene that the Chinese Empire had invested in actual combat.
Phosphimosis is called carbon oxychloride, which is a colorless and highly toxic gas, but in industrial production, it appears to be light yellow due to the mixing of a small amount of impurities. This is an asphyxiating poison gas, which is the first time on the earth.
The chlorine gas used by Germany first during the war was ten times more powerful.
Under such a powerful poisonous gas, the Japanese army quickly lost its ability to resist. When the land brigade with gas masks rushed into the factory, there were not many Japanese soldiers alive, and they occupied them without a single shot and an ammunition.
Youchuan Steel Factory.
The Youchuan Steel Factory is located in the suburbs, so the Japanese soldiers in the city did not know the situation there. They were extremely surprised when they knew that the steel factory had fallen. They could not understand how the steel factory was stationed with two wings.
It will be occupied silently.
"Captain Liu, let's continue to use this chemical bomb to attack Youchuan City." Seeing that the land combat brigade occupied the steel plant without any effort, Qin Feng felt very jealous. As long as he had such a powerful weapon, it would be easy to destroy Japan.
Liu Yaqing smiled and said, "You think you are beautiful, you use this kind of shell, and the Japanese on the entire Kyushu Island will not die."
Gao Dingkui smiled and said, "Those Japanese attacked the empire many times, which is extremely despicable and shameless. It's better if they die."
Liu Yaqing said: "It's nothing if they die. The young master is under great pressure on world public opinion. You can't take shortcuts when fighting, and the real battle still depends on real strength."
Gao Dingkui also knew the importance of it. He was just shocked by chemical weapons. After hearing Liu Yaqing's words, he replied with a smile: "Yes, it depends on real strength, then I will organize the attack."
The Japanese army stationed in the city did not expect that the Chinese army, who had been stationed outside the city for several days, suddenly launched an attack. What's even more strange is that there was no movement in the steel plant outside the city, as if no one was stationed.
The Marines' offensive momentum was fierce. Under the cover of Weasel 1 tank, a large number of marines launched an attack on the city.
This siege did not prepare for artillery fire in advance, because after several siege battles, the military discovered a problem. Destroying the city with heavy artillery before siege can not kill many enemies, but instead it was bombed into ruins.
The urban terrain is more complex, making street fighting more difficult.
War is a process of constantly learning and improving strategies and tactics. With such experience, the Chinese army changed its tactics before attacking the city. Instead of bombing the city with heavy artillery, they used tanks as support firepower, followed the infantry and rely on
These direct firepowers cover infantry advances and provide artillery support.
Although the Marine Corps are all conscripts, their combat quality is higher than that of ordinary National Wehrmachts, because they are established according to the standards of quasi-special forces. Each soldier is selected from previous recruits, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the nearest one.
The guards are quite impressive.
Accurate shooting and timely artillery fire support caused heavy casualties in the Japanese soldiers. After several street battles, the Marines' street fighting skills became more and more mature, and the casualties were greatly reduced, and the Japanese army was in trouble.
Most of them are soldiers who have just joined the army, which has made the quality of the Japanese army plummet. These Japanese soldiers who have not even completed training are barely able to use rifles and know nothing about skills and tactics. These inexperienced new recruits are easy to fight.
Exposing the targets has implicated the veterans with them. Such an army not only did not become strong because of its large number, but instead caused a sharp decline in combat effectiveness.
Although there are many Japanese troops in Aichuan Castle, they are too far away from the island and the troops are unable to carry out logistics supplies, which leads to a shortage of ammunition. After two days of fierce fighting, the Japanese troops defending the city lost more than half of them and chose to surrender after exhausting ammunition.
The Marines took over Aikawa Castle almost intact.
The Imperial Army was more cautious in attacking Kyushu Island, and was not as open as it was on the island. In Fang Xiaoyu's plan, Kyushu Island had been included in his territory by him, so he naturally had to protect it as much as possible.
Under the command of Zhang Zhonglin, the Central Army marched in chariots and trucks. He mixed the armored troops and the infantry of the National Defense Forces to form several armored clusters for multiple interweaving. The Japanese army, who were unwilling to fail, assembled a main force, and they
I plan to learn the tactics commonly used in the Western Continent and set up positions in the hilly areas in the central part of the Great Plain of Kyushu Island to prevent the rapid advancement of the Chinese army.
Facing the Japanese army's defense line, Zhang Zhonglin did not give them a chance to block head-on. The army took advantage of the Japanese army's front line that had not been fully constructed, and suddenly accelerated the marching speed, breaking through the weak links of the Japanese army's positions in one fell swoop, and the troops led by the chariots
Racing on the Jiuzhou Plain, the Japanese army had not yet reacted to what was going on, and the infantry had already cooperated with the chariots to divide the six Japanese divisions that were preparing to form a defense line.
The Japanese army was completely surrounded in the field and no longer cared about the city. Zhang Zhonglin directly ordered the bomber and artillery fire to cover the bombing. Only then did the Japanese army commander realize how stupid he had done. The surrounded Japanese soldiers were considered to be overwhelmed.
After a lot of trouble, planes exploded during the day and artillery bombarded at night. The Japanese soldiers could only hide in simple temporary fortifications and trembled, begging the bomb not to land on their heads.
The bombings continued for two days and two nights before stopping. In the field without solid fortifications, the Japanese army could not effectively resist such intensive bombing. In just two days, the Japanese army would have to be killed in more than 30,000 people, and the rest were also
Most are injured.
After the bombing, the field weapons such as chariots were directly dispatched in groups, and the rumbling chariots galloped among the hills, trying their best to compress the living space of the Japanese soldiers.
Seeing these steel monsters rushing towards them, the Japanese soldiers had to choose to retreat, but the encirclement was only so large, and all the Japanese soldiers retreated to the center, causing the Japanese soldiers at the center of the encirclement to become increasingly dense, while the Chinese army's artillery fire was still there.
It was not stopping, and in the end the concentration of the Japanese soldiers was already outrageous. One shell could kill hundreds of people.
The top leaders of the Japanese army would never be willing to be bombed without any response. In order to make more people survive, they chose to break through, but how could the flesh and blood fight against the torrent of steel? The Japanese soldiers who charged for the desperately disappeared in the war soon
The car's tracks are under.
The Japanese army suffered most of the losses, but there was no hope of breaking through. In the end, their commanders had to surrender. After annihilated this part of the enemy, there was a shortage of regular Japanese army personnel on the Jiuzhou Plain, and the Japanese army had to retreat completely.
The troops were shrinking to the coastal areas, while the Chinese army pursued them reluctantly and bit them tightly.
At the cost of great personnel losses, the Japanese army finally withdrew 40,000 troops into Zizaki Castle, and the Chinese army that followed quickly surrounded the place. The most famous coastal city of Zizaki Castle is that it has
The largest shipyard in Japan, but unfortunately, Japan has no fleet to protect it anymore.
Three Chinese-class battleships quickly destroyed the weak coastal artillery of the Japanese, and the fleet rushed into the harbor without any obstacles. The sound of the volley of the naval guns rumbled, covering the Japanese military camps in the city.
Naval guns can be different from army artillery with a small caliber. The so-called quantitative change causes qualitative change. A large caliber can cause a large pit of more than 30 meters if a shell is down. Even if life within 80 meters is not hit.
