The Chinese people on the south bank of the Suzhou River in the concession were definitely stimulated today.
The mood is a complete roller coaster with twists and turns.
First, the Japanese army was fierce and powerful, and it seemed that they could capture the warehouse building in one battle, which made people worried; then the Chinese defenders suddenly emerged, and a wave of firepower destroyed the Japanese invaders, not to mention they were still struggling to survive; and then the Japanese army faced the front.
The battlefield showed off its power and suppressed the firepower of the Chinese defenders, and my heart was raised again...
However, the fierce fighting for more than ten minutes made the Chinese people's hearts go up and down, and their throats suffered even more. Many people's throats had been shouted hoarse, and they could not make a loud sound at this moment.
Then, a dozen or so people in dark blue military uniforms suddenly stood up by the window of the warehouse near the river, shouting at the top of their lungs: "Gua Wa Zi, get down here! Pick up your heads!"
...
Confused! Confused!
Not to mention that the Western soldiers responsible for maintaining order on the shore were confused, even the Chinese people were confused.
Although the Sichuan dialect has a strong accent, it is by no means as difficult to understand as Jiangnan dialect. Even if two neighboring counties in Jiangsu and Zhejiang cannot understand each other, it is perfectly normal. Most Chinese people who can hear this sound understand it.
.
Those who don’t understand it can only be crooked nuts.
It's just that it's a little difficult to accept psychologically.
What do you mean? We cheer for you and you call us fools?
Of course, there were also smart people. Seeing the anxious state of a dozen soldiers with red faces and thick necks, who were about to shout at the top of their lungs, they immediately fell to the ground and told the people around them to lie down.
The herd mentality is like this. When you see many people doing this, those who haven't figured it out will also get down, and those who haven't got down will also be dragged down.
The middle-aged man in robe who excitedly took his son to buy cakes before was more witty. He pulled his wife and children into the corner of a building in a flash, and used his body to protect the two people he wanted to protect most.
people.
His father is from Sichuan, and he knows that "Gua Wa Zi" is just a mantra of Sichuan Province. If you can shout it like this, the subtext is that anyone who doesn't lie down is an idiot, ha!
"Wote?" Lieutenant Western had a big question mark written all over his face.
His immediate boss's immediate boss, who was still sighing slightly at the situation, was about to express his thoughts. Looking at the Chinese people suddenly lying down on the shore, his face froze slightly. He couldn't care less about bragging to his subordinates and suddenly raised his head.
Looking into the distance, his pupils shrank sharply.
"Shet!"
"Target No. 1, detonate!"
Tang Dao's voice was as cold as a knife.
"Blow it up for me!" Liu Datou was as hot as fire after receiving Tang Dao's order.
The sergeant squad leader, who pressed the detonating rod hard, was blushing at that moment, as if his head was swollen with excitement.
I couldn’t be more excited!
The 1st Battalion, which was determined to die, had brought a thousand kilograms of explosives with them before arriving. The original intention was to send themselves and their positions to the sky at the last moment. Na Chengxiang thought that as soon as Tang Dao arrived, he persuaded the regimental deputy to change his mind and distribute half of the explosives.
The amount is placed elsewhere.
Liu Datou thought like most people. Suzhou Hebei Road is a very prosperous street in Zhabei District. There are many buildings similar to Sihang Warehouse on both sides of the street. Although many of them were damaged and turned into ruins in the artillery fire, there are still some buildings left.
After choosing several buildings, who knows which one the Japanese will choose?
There is no problem in using hundreds of kilograms of explosives to blow up a building, but if the blasting is carried out dispersedly, it will not have the best effect.
It was Tang Dao who still chose the building, almost desperately choosing the blasting point at the four-story bank building that was more than 200 meters away.
Although the Tang Dao is very powerful, this is just a matter of luck. With the idea that the flying bricks might hit the Japanese with blood, the three platoons and one squad, under the leadership of the squad leader, arranged the blasting points.
, the ultra-long-distance blasting of more than 200 meters also used up all the special wires for blasting, including digging trenches, burying, and camouflaging. This project alone took a lot of effort.
Then, what no one expected was that the Japanese actually entered that building.
Now, I finally don’t have to rely on bricks and pieces of wood to hit people.
Instead, you can fly in the air.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
I heard several deafening loud noises almost indistinguishable before and after. While visible flames were erupting from various places in the bank building about 200 meters away from the Sihang Warehouse, an invisible force swept in all around.
The brigadier-general, who was still shrinking his pupils, didn't care about the "shet" or "wote" anymore. He rolled his waist towards the crude and crude fortifications on the roof of the building.
That thing was just for the occasion, but who knew it could actually be used? The agile figure of a little old man in his fifties was not at all in line with his age.
The shock wave of an explosion of this magnitude may not kill someone from such a distance, but a flying brick can still kill someone.
Regarding nobility and military demeanor, only the living can hear other people's comments. Brigadier General Smallet has lived for more than fifty years and is very transparent.
The Chinese are so cruel!
"Wote?" Lieutenant Western, who was severely knocked down by the shock wave and fell into the fortification, uttered his last question and fainted gloriously.
In comparison, his subordinates who had been lying in the fortifications had their heads knocked down at that moment, and the injuries they suffered were much smaller. At most, they were only hit by falling gravel.
The Chinese people lying on the ground now understood why they were told to lie down. Those who did not lie down would be like a leaf in front of such a blast shock wave, even if they were still more than 300 meters away.
Fortunately, they were far enough away, and there was a river several meters deep that divided the battlefield and their location into two.
Otherwise, due to their unprofessional prostrateness, I don’t know how many people would have become the victims of this terrible explosion.
If the chest and abdomen touch the ground, the seismic waves caused by an explosion of this magnitude are enough to shatter a person's internal organs.
During the Battle of Songhu, many soldiers did not die directly from the shock wave of the shell explosion, but were shocked to death while hiding in trenches and shell holes.
The Suzhou River, which originally had only a few ripples, turned into waves at this moment. The waves rolled up were more than two meters high, as if a giant hand was ruffling the river.
For the Sihang Warehouse, which is slightly closer, the shock wave is naturally stronger, but the soldiers have made all preparations in advance, stuffing cotton in their ears, holding their heads with their hands and finding a strong enough position to squat.
But the terrible explosion still made them dizzy. The building, which was so strong that even a 70mm infantry gun couldn't penetrate it, seemed to be trembling, and dust kept falling from the ceiling.
The Chinese defenders who were 200 meters away and hiding in the building with a wall that was more than half a meter thick could still feel this devastating force, let alone the place closer to the detonation point.
The air waves generated by the violent explosion of hundreds of kilograms scattered in all directions and destroyed the surrounding buildings. However, there were several buildings directly opposite and tens of meters away on both sides. Although they were shaken by the air waves, they were like small boats in the waves.
But it was blocked after all. This is also the main reason why the Chinese people who were lying on the ground were not injured. It is just estimated that their hearing will be damaged to a certain extent after today.
The shock waves from the front, left, and right were all blocked, and naturally more energy could only be released by rushing to the rear.
Most of the small alleys in the rear are composed of countless residential houses with mixed brick and wood structures like Songhu. They have long been destroyed by artillery fire and turned into ruins. How can they withstand such violent energy?
Devastated, wherever the air waves hit, the walls turned into flat ground and the ruins turned into rubble. If you look at it from the sky, taking the building blasted by 500 kilograms of explosives as the center of the circle, the damage caused by the air waves radiating outward is like a
Regular fan surface.
Within this sector, ruins become more ruins.
Toyoda Hide had just ordered his two infantry squadrons to move forward to about 400 meters in front of the Sihang Warehouse. In order to prevent being blindly hit by the machine guns on the roof of the warehouse, the lateral distance of more than 300 people was more than 500 meters.
It seems that there are one or two infantry squads just on the edge of the fan...
The Toyota Show, about 600 meters away from the explosion point, howled miserably!
