Spy Shadow: Command & Conquer

Chapter 1437, Meteor Shower
The Japanese invaders were stunned by the bombing.

Some of the remaining Japanese invaders were still standing.

He was bleeding all over, but he forgot to lie down.

There was no way. The bombing came too suddenly and they had no time to react.

As we were walking, we were suddenly bombarded.

Moreover, it was not a sporadic bombardment. It was a large-scale bombardment. It was a cluster of artillery.

The Japanese squadron leader was injured by the explosion, but he was still alive. He was looking around with a terrified and dull look.

Its eyes saw everything around it, but its brain was unable to react.

Apparently, many shells were falling at the same time.

At least twenty or thirty shells fell simultaneously. This is an artillery regiment!
God!

They were actually attacked by an artillery regiment!
It’s still a heavy artillery regiment!
The shells that fell were all large-caliber, with strong explosive power, more powerful than the Japanese army's own 105mm shells.

"Snap hook!"

Suddenly, gunshots were heard.

A wounded Japanese soldier committed suicide. He couldn't bear it.

It put the muzzle of the Type 38 rifle against its mouth and pulled the trigger with its toes.

A gunshot. A blow to the head.

Fortunately, Zhang Yong didn't see it. Otherwise, he would definitely be amazed.

It turns out that the scenes in some anti-Japanese war dramas are real. The Japanese invaders really committed suicide with rifles like this.

"boom……"

There was another dull explosion.

It was the seriously injured Japanese invader who detonated the grenade and blew himself up.

"idiot……"

"How could this be?"

"How could this be?"

The Japanese squadron leader suddenly discovered that many of the wounded were burned.

That's right. He was burned by the flames. His whole body seemed to be burnt. His whole body was black. His skin was ulcerated. No wonder he couldn't bear it and wanted to commit suicide.

This kind of severe burn is unbearable for anyone! It is impossible to treat it.

Even Amaterasu can't save him.

Damn...

What kind of artillery shells did the Chinese use?
How could the burns be so severe?
In fact, it is the propellant that is to blame. Propellant has a violent combustion effect.

At the same time as the explosion, there was also a blaze of fire, which swept over the devils and instantly scorched them, making their lives worse than death.

"boom……"

Another grenade exploded.

Another seriously injured Japanese soldier committed suicide.

"Turn in..."

"Turn in..."

The Japanese squadron leader shouted with difficulty.

It felt that it was losing more and more strength. It was probably going to die.

The ground was littered with broken limbs and arms. It was a mess. More than two-thirds of its squadron had been killed or wounded.

There were wounded soldiers lying on the ground, wailing and groping around, apparently looking for something to commit suicide.

Then other Japanese invaders placed a grenade next to it.

The seriously injured Japanese soldier who touched the grenade...

"boom……"

Solve another one by myself.

Several Japanese invaders committed suicide intermittently.

"Report back..."

"There is a Chinese heavy artillery regiment in the west..."

"go back……"

The Japanese captain's voice suddenly stopped. He was dead.

The remaining Japanese invaders hurriedly retreated in a panic, not caring about the broken bodies on the ground.

Some Japanese wounded soldiers who were still alive were also forgotten on the ground.

Others can run as fast as they can.

Otherwise, when the second round of shells falls, a large number of people will die.

fortunately……

No shells fell.

Reloading speed is too slow.

It turns out that loading rockets is really a technical job.

It is not only a physical job, but also a technical job. It requires practice to become proficient. Unfortunately, I can't do it yet.

By the time all rockets were reloaded, the target had changed significantly.

The radar map shows that the red dots are very scattered and far apart from each other.

There was no need to continue firing.

waste.

Keep the rockets and go to Wuhu to attack the Japanese positions. There are more Japanese invaders there.

"go!"

Give the order to sail.

Continue downstream.

"so smart……"

Wu Keren, who was watching from the side, was secretly amazed.

I thought the name of the firecracker sounded like a toy, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful.

The launch speed is so fast.

Chirp, chirp, chirp. All thirty-six shells were fired.

It was almost the firepower of a complete artillery regiment! And it was a large-caliber heavy artillery regiment!

One round of salvo is almost equivalent to the salvo from three mountain artillery battalions.

The explosive power of the shells should be stronger than that of 75mm shells, and the maximum range is also similar.

Although there are only three gates, the momentum created by the attacks is earth-shaking.

Moreover, there is almost no recoil. When fired on the deck of a freighter, the freighter is also very stable.

So amazing.

I don’t know where the Sicilians came from?

If there were more, say thirty, a salvo could cover the positions of a battalion of Japanese invaders.

Just thinking about it makes me excited and full of expectations.

Now that we have three doors, there will definitely be more in the future.

The Commissioner will definitely find a way to get more. In the future, these firecrackers may become the 67th Army's killer weapon.

If the Japanese infantry launched a pig-like charge, one volley would cover them all...

I guess the Japanese commander would vomit blood on the spot.

What is the mountain artillery battalion of the 100th Army? Firecrackers are the real low-key killers...

"Distance measurement..."

"Towards..."

Zhang Yong explained the key technical details to the artillerymen in detail.

In fact, the 107 rocket launcher is a relatively "rough" weapon. Otherwise, it would not be called one of the three great weapons of guerrilla warfare.

Therefore, you don't need to study its accuracy in depth. The error of this thing is difficult to control.

But that's okay. Don't worry about the error.

As long as there are enough rockets, the error is no longer an error.

Directly cover the entire target area.

Are there any other errors?
Therefore, the most important thing when using this kind of firecracker is to have enough shells so that it can chirp continuously.

A salvo is 36 rounds.

Ten salvos equal 360 rounds.

One hundred times...

A thousand times...

Gradually approaching Wuhu.

The map of the Air Force Command clearly shows the heavy weapons positions of the Japanese invaders.

Zhang Yong's main focus was on the Japanese invaders' 105mm artillery positions.

Right, well within the range of the rocket.

The Japanese 105mm artillery position was only five kilometers away from the shore.

In other words, it is entirely possible to hit the target by launching rockets from the river. Unfortunately, it is only an idea. It cannot be done.

why?
Because the Japanese invaders had a guard post.

There are also Japanese patrol boats on the river. They will be discovered.

Once discovered, the Japanese invaders' 105mm heavy artillery would be the first to cover and fire, and the river surface would boil.

In terms of pure range, the 107mm rocket launcher is far behind the Japanese 105mm heavy cannon. The two are not on the same level.

How to do?
Of course, I went ashore.

After getting ashore, we are much more maneuverable and flexible.

Even if it is not disassembled, a few people can drag it because it has cannon wheels.

A cannon weighs only a few hundred kilograms, which is quite light.

It just so happens that the infantry battalion we brought with us can also go ashore.

Then lure the Japanese invaders out to pursue them.

Then an ambush.

It was an ambush using 107 rocket launchers.

A small number of Japanese invaders came out and were served by the infantry battalion.

A large number of Japanese invaders came out and were covered by rocket launchers.

"Ashore."

"Stop the ship."

The Japanese invaders were very close to the shore, but their forces extended far to the west.

The farthest stronghold was thirty kilometers away from Wuhu. If they wanted to land safely, they had to be outside the Japanese stronghold.

Then, they attacked eastwards from the west little by little, eroding the Japanese strongholds.

Coincidentally, there is a wild pier here.

Freighter docked.

First, use thick wooden boards to build a path to the shore.

The infantry went ashore first. A cordon was established. Then the rocket launchers were pushed down the planks.

Fortunately, the thick wooden board was able to bear the weight of more than 600 kilograms. Although it was a little bent, it was successfully pushed to the shore in the end.

The most troublesome thing is actually the rockets. They all need to be transferred to the shore. The speed is relatively slow.

Zhang Yong doesn't need to worry about this matter.

Xu Kang was in charge of unloading. Zhang Yong was in charge of fighting. Darkness was always his home turf.

"After unloading the cargo, you will go back to Anqing Wharf."

"it is good."

"I'll contact you by telegram when necessary."

"it is good."

Xu Kang agreed.

Zhang Yong then led the infantry battalion forward.

Close to the first Japanese stronghold.

The radar map showed that there were about two hundred Japanese invaders.

Heavy weapons include two Type 90 infantry guns and four mm mountain guns.

There are no strong fortifications.

well.

The rocket launcher has just the right coverage.

The distance is only about 2400 meters. The range is very short.

ready.

aim.

"put!"

"Choo Choo Choo……"

Flames streaked across the night sky, making a piercing sound.

Compared with ordinary artillery shells, the biggest feature of rockets is that the flame at the tail is very obvious.

Because it relies entirely on the flames from its tail as its power during flight. Therefore, as long as the propellant is not exhausted, there will be flames. Anyone who is not blind can clearly identify it, even in the daytime.

At night, even in the moonlight, the trajectory of the rocket is clearly visible. With a telescope, you can basically tell where the rocket landed. As the rocket fell and exploded, large balls of fire exploded, illuminating the night sky.

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Continuous explosions were heard.

Through the telescope, it can be clearly seen that the Japanese position has turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Compared to ordinary artillery shells, the flames caused by rocket explosions are very terrifying because rocket propellants are flammable and explosive.

Unused propellant, while increasing the power of the explosion, can also cause widespread fire.

The Japanese invaders who were sleeping did not react at all and went to the Yasukuni Shrine. Many of them were blown up on the spot and no trace of their bodies was left.

Some Japanese invaders were blown into the sky.

The vast majority of the Japanese invaders were blown to pieces.

A lot of debris flew into the air.

Those are the Japanese artillery parts, gun barrels and so on.

When the flames of the explosion disappeared, the radar map showed that there were less than fifty red dots left, and they were still decreasing.

"continue!"

Zhang Yong did not order the infantry to move out.

No need.

Keep frying.

The bombing continued until the Japanese invaders were almost completely wiped out.

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

Then the infantry went up to clean up the battlefield, just picking up the remaining Japanese invaders.

Unfortunately, the reload speed is still too slow. Actually, it can't be faster.

Even if a god came, it would take time. It cannot be accomplished overnight.

"Snap hook!"

"Snap hook!"

At this time, the remaining Japanese invaders began to fight back.

They were not completely useless. The direction of the shooting was the direction of the rocket launcher.

Obviously, the trajectory of the rocket has exposed the launch location.

However, the distance was too far, and the Japanese were just bluffing when they fired. They were just trying to give themselves courage.

After the first round of salvos, the Japanese Type 90 infantry guns were destroyed. The mm mortars were also destroyed. They were what Zhang Yong was aiming at.

Therefore, the Japanese invaders no longer had any heavy weapons. At a distance of more than 2,000 meters, they were unable to counterattack.

"What, what..."

The remaining Japanese invaders were still desperately making phone calls, trying to report to their superiors.

However, the call did not go through. The telephone line was blown up. It would take time to reconnect. There was no radio at the squadron level.

However, there was a Japanese observation post further away, and they immediately noticed something unusual here.

The front-line outpost was bombarded and the news was quickly reported.

One minute……

Two minutes...

Finally, the reloading was completed.

"put!"

Zhang Yong gave the order, and the second round of volleys began.

In the night sky, flames once again densely covered the Japanese positions.

"what……"

Some Japanese invaders raised their heads.

Suddenly I felt beautiful.

There are so many flames in the sky.

Is this the legendary meteor shower? It's so dense, it really looks like a meteor shower...

then……

Meteor showers fall.

Cover the Japanese positions again.

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

The violent explosion plunged the Japanese invaders into darkness.

All the Japanese invaders who tried to make phone calls or connect to telephone lines were killed in the explosion.

After the second round of bombing, the number of remaining red dots was less than 20, and it was still decreasing.

Sure enough, the first round of bombing is always the most effective.

"Stop shooting!"

"on!"

Zhang Yong waved.

Take out the Garand semi-automatic rifle.

Take the infantry up and clean up the battlefield.

There are only a few Japanese invaders left, but no one knows where they are.

He is best at dealing with these scattered remnants of the army.

He also enjoyed the feeling of killing the Japanese invaders with his own hands.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

Shooting was intermittent.

Kill all the surviving Japanese invaders.

Finally, there are three red dots left. No way. Can't hit them.

Buried under thick soil.

How to do?
Easy. Solved with dynamite.

Place a ten-kilogram explosive pack on top, light the fuse, and walk away.

"Rumble..."

The explosive charge exploded.

There was a loud noise like the sky collapsing and the ground shaking.

Finally, the last three red dots disappeared.

it is good.

Get it done.

"Commissioner..."

Wu Keren came up.

He was a little puzzled.

I saw many charred bodies of Japanese invaders.

Generally speaking, artillery shells would blow people to pieces, but none of them would burn them so badly.

“Is this a firebomb?”

"No."

"That……"

"It just has a little burning effect, that's all. Not much."

"Not much?"

Wu Keren felt that it was a lot.

This firecracker is quite different from ordinary shells.

Its penetration and ability to destroy fortifications seem inferior to those of ordinary artillery shells, but it is very effective against Japanese soldiers.

Blown to death.

Burnt.

As a result, the battlefield was filled with the rich smell of meat.

A squadron of Japanese invaders was basically wiped out in two rounds of salvos.

It is conceivable what the effect would be if used in field combat.

It smells really good when it's roasted...

"Incendiary bomb?"

Zhang Yong was reminded by Wu Keren.

It seems that the type of bullet fired by the 107 rocket is not the only one.

There may really be incendiary bombs, with white phosphorus added to the warhead.

Check. They found incendiary bombs.

After the explosion, white phosphorus splashed and burned wherever it stuck.

Frankly speaking, it is indeed very brutal.

But it is just right to use it against the Japanese invaders.

It can also fire armor-piercing shells. This doesn't seem to be very useful.

To deal with the Japanese armored targets, it is better to use a 12.7 large-caliber machine gun.

Keep going.

Rush to the next Japanese stronghold.

At this time, the sky was getting light and a new day began.

"Commissioner..."

Wu Keren was somewhat worried about the Japanese planes.

Although firecrackers are great, they can't deal with aerial targets!
If we encounter Japanese planes, we will be beaten.

"fine."

Zhang Yong was very calm.

The Japanese planes in Nanjing would definitely not be able to take off.

Because the airport was bombed. The damage was very serious. It was impossible to send out support.

How can we go out when we can’t even take care of ourselves?

Unless they were dispatched from Shanghai Longhua Airport or Hangzhou Jianqiao Airport, the distance would be very far.

As long as the Japanese planes move slightly, there will be a prompt on the air command map...

and many more.

Suddenly, Zhang Yong discovered that Japanese planes took off.

Whether it was Longhua Airport or Jiangqiao Airport, Japanese fighter planes took off and circled.

At first, I thought it was the Japanese invaders who were about to take action. But later I found out that it was not the case. The Japanese fighter planes were just circling around the airport. Circling again and again.

Oh, I see. This is air alert. Worried about enemy aircraft attack.

If the tragedy of the attack on Jinling Airport happened again, it would be the end of us. Another Japanese invader would need to commit seppuku to apologize.

Very good. Since the Japanese fighter planes have not been dispatched, let's go ahead and do it.

go ahead.

Encountered sporadic Japanese patrols.

Kill.

Keep going.

Arrived at the second base.

There is a Japanese battalion headquarters here, with a radio station.

The number of Japanese invaders was about 90. They had Type infantry guns and mm mortars.

It seems that the Japanese invaders have received the news in advance and have all entered the fortifications and are ready for battle. There are more Japanese invaders behind the stronghold.

It is certain that the Japanese invaders are prepared. But it does not matter. Keep bombing.

aim.

fire.

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Dense array of rockets fell.

In an instant, the Japanese positions were enveloped by large balls of flames.

After the violent explosion, the Japanese positions were in ruins and it was almost impossible to recognize their original appearance.

Even a fool could see that many Japanese invaders were killed or injured in the bombing.

"idiot!"

The Japanese invaders behind were all stunned.

How could there be such heavy artillery fire? How could so many shells fall at the same time?
Judging from the intensity of the explosion, it was at least a 120mm howitzer! Maybe even a 150mm one.

damn it!
Are the Chinese heavy artillery deployed?

Why did the Chinese deploy heavy artillery?
Are we going to fight back against Wuhu?

Report to superiors immediately.

"Nani?"

"The Chinese have dispatched a heavy artillery regiment?"

"idiot!"

The regiment commander hurriedly reported to the brigade headquarters.

The brigade headquarters then reported to the division headquarters, and finally came to Yamamuro Munetake.

"Nani?"

"Heavy artillery regiment?"

Yamamuro Munetake was a little bit unbelievable.

The frontline troops were ordered to confirm repeatedly, and the results all indicated that it was true.

"Damn..."

Yamamuro Munetake had to believe it.

Are the Chinese planning a full-scale counterattack? Are the heavy artillery regiments dispatched?
What about the infantry?

How many infantrymen were dispatched?
What is the strategic intent?
Is it Wuhu?

Could it be that I will be the first to bear the brunt?
The 11th Division, which was originally supposed to withdraw back to the country, was about to face a full-scale counterattack by the Chinese?
