I am God of War in Snow Leopard

Chapter 77: Bombing and sinking Japanese ships
Below the Transportation Building, there is a Japanese military position.

In order to boost morale, he took down the Sixing Warehouse in one fell swoop.

As the head of the brigade, Major General Katayama Riichiro also personally came to the forefront of the offensive position.

In front of him, Takashi Takamori and others were more than 1000 elite Japanese troops armed with live ammunition and ready to go.

Just when Riichiro Katayama, an old Japanese soldier, completed his impassioned pre-war mobilization speech, he was about to give the order to stop the bombardment and start the attack.

A communication second lieutenant suddenly ran over quickly from behind along the traffic trench.

Excitedly came to him, Takamori Takamori and the others, and stood upright: "Report to Your Excellency, the Navy's naval support team is here. A total of four machine gunboats have arrived at the new rubbish bridge section of the Suzhou Creek."

"Yoshi!" Katayama Satoichiro was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately nodded happily, and said to the Japanese attacking troops around him: "Everyone, the naval support has arrived!

The Chinese defenders in the warehouse in front are unable to escape this time. They will make contributions to the empire and avenge the shame of the 3rd Division. At this time!

Use your bayonets to tell the Chinese people that our Imperial Japanese Army is invincible! "

"unbeatable!"

"unbeatable!"

"unbeatable!"

Thousands of Japanese soldiers raised their guns and raised their arms in response.

In the next second, Takamori Takamori, the captain of the regiment, pulled out his saber.

With a solemn expression, he waved forward, pointed at the Sixing Warehouse, which was still being ravaged by his own gunfire, and was almost submerged in thick smoke and flames, and ordered: "Kill Quack!"

Immediately afterwards, thousands of Japanese infantrymen seemed to have been beaten to death.

With a bayonet in hand, they scrambled out of the trench.

Like a flood that bursts from a dam, it swarmed towards Sihang Warehouse.

Our own infantry began to attack, and the mortars located behind the Japanese positions stopped shelling.

At the same time, four 25-ton Japanese gunboats also passed under the new garbage bridge.

We came to the section of the river facing the Sixing Warehouse, under the command of several Japanese gunboat commanders.

The four 80mm mortars installed on the bow of the ship slowly aimed their muzzles at the four-row warehouse standing on the north shore.

This scene was discovered by some officers and soldiers of the Ninth Company deployed in this direction.

Since devils generally would not attack from this side, Xu Qingfeng just asked Sun Kui to deploy a few soldiers on the side near the Suzhou Creek to be on guard.

Several people discovered this situation after shooting holes drilled in the wall.

One person was quickly separated and rushed to the command post on the third floor to report to Xu Qingfeng and Sun Kui.

"Report to the battalion commander, the company commander, several Japanese warships appeared on the river, and it seems that they are going to bombard us."

Sun Kui was shocked when he heard this and said to Xu Qingfeng: "Batalion Commander, have the Japanese brought the navy to join the war?
Then, how do we break through the waterway?"

Xu Qingfeng said in a dignified voice: "Why panic, you are staring at the front here, and the devil will open fire immediately after entering the range.

I went to the top floor to see what was going on. "

"Yes!" Sun Kui accepted the order with a bang.

Xu Qingfeng told Chen Qifeng and Liang Shan: "You two, follow me up, and bring a mortar team."

"Yes!" Chen Qifeng responded happily. Liang Shan was obviously still a little confused, but he quickly stood up and responded.

After speaking, Chen Qifeng ran away to inform the mortar team.

Xu Qingfeng carried a medium-sized rifle and led Liang Shan to the top of the building first.

At this time, the top floor of the warehouse was continuously bombarded by Japanese artillery fire for nearly half an hour.

Therefore, there are still explosive flames everywhere, as well as billowing smoke that has not yet dissipated.

However, this also happened to provide excellent cover for Xu Qingfeng and Liang Shan.

With the help of gunpowder smoke, Xu Qingfeng walked quickly to the wall near the southwest of Suzhou Creek.

Quietly poked out half of his head, and sure enough, he saw four Japanese gunboats with plaster flags lying across the river.

"System, can you help me scan the models and specific performance data of the following Japanese gunboats?"

Xu Qingfeng's heart moved, and he took the initiative to ask the system.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy can help you win a hundred battles.

Fortunately, the system quickly responded: "The Japanese gunboat ahead is a 25-ton gunboat. It is a surface combat ship specially developed to deal with the water network zone in southern China.

The boat is 18 meters long, 3.6 meters wide, with a maximum draft of 1.6 meters. It adopts a flat-deck boat type and has a semi-armored cab with a semi-buried structure.

The power is two diesel engines with a total power of 300 horsepower, two-shaft propulsion, a maximum speed of 11 knots, and a battery life of about 300 nautical miles.

With a shallow draft, it is very suitable for driving in rivers and lakes, and it can also drive in areas with less wind and waves in the offshore.

Its weapon system consists of an 80mm mortar at the bow of the boat and a Type 13 [-]mm heavy machine gun installed at the rear of the top of the cockpit.

Or it consists of twin Type 13 [-]mm heavy machine guns without armor protection.

The second half of the hull is the crew compartment, which can accommodate soldiers from two infantry squads. There is a Type 2 heavy machine gun above the crew compartment! "

"Hmm." Based on his own observations, Xu Qingfeng found that there was no difference from the scan data given by the system.

Although this kind of gunboat has a small tonnage, it has strong maneuverability. It can not only blockade along the river, but also carry infantry.

Moreover, they are equipped with machine guns and artillery, which poses a great threat to the current defenders of Sihang Warehouse.

In particular, Xu Qingfeng planned to evacuate from the waterway, so the four Japanese warships had to be killed.

If you don't kill them, even if you have diving equipment, you won't be able to safely evacuate from Suzhou River.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him. Xu Qingfeng looked back and saw that it was Chen Qifeng who was catching up with a mortar team.

Xu Qingfeng immediately began to deploy: "I will be in charge of manipulating the mortar, and Chen Qifeng will be in charge of setting up the machine gun, and cooperate with the firepower to suppress the devil's machine gunner on the ship."

After finishing speaking, Xu Qingfeng asked Liang Shan again: "Counselor Liang, how is your marksmanship?"

Liang Shan said nervously: "It should be okay. I got a double-A at the Central Military Academy."

"Then you are responsible for precise sniping!" As he said that, Xu Qingfeng stuffed the medium-sized rifle in his hand into his arms.

Then he ordered a few artillerymen: "You guys, be my ammunition carriers!"

"Yes!" They had already seen Xu Qingfeng's amazing artillery skills, so they were convinced of Xu Qingfeng's skills and knew nothing about it.

Under the command of Xu Qingfeng, several people quickly set up artillery on the spot, and soon a [-]mm mortar was set up.

Taking the mortar from the gunner, Xu Qingfeng immediately began to adjust the muzzle.

At this time, the main Japanese attacking troops directly opposite the warehouse had rushed into the effective shooting range of the officers and soldiers of the third battalion in groups.

Sun Kui, Zhang Zhijian, Lei Xiong and others respectively commanded the troops to open fire to stop them.

There was loud gunfire, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out between the two sides immediately.

The four devil gunboats on the river were to cover and cooperate with the army's attack.

They also aimed at the outer wall on the southwest side of the warehouse and carried out bombings indiscriminately.

Although their 80mm mortars were unable to penetrate the warehouse walls made of reinforced concrete.

However, at least it can support the army in terms of momentum.

At this time, the people on the other side were still watching and refused to disperse.

Seeing that the devil had transferred all the navy, the Sixing Warehouse was covered by the ferocious land and sea firepower of the Japanese army.

They couldn't help worrying about Xu Qingfeng and the officers and soldiers of the third battalion, and many people's hearts were raised in their throats.

After a short adjustment, Xu Qingfeng had already locked onto one of the Japanese gunboats.

"Cannonball!" He shouted, and an ammunition man beside him who had been preparing for a long time immediately handed over a high-explosive grenade.

Xu Qingfeng took the shell, stuffed it into the barrel, and let it slide to the bottom of the barrel.

At the same time, he turned sideways and lowered his head to dodge, only to hear a bang!
The cannonball was shot out of the chamber, turned into a streamer, roared out, leaving a striking flight path in midair.

In the end, it accurately hit the Japanese gunboat that was still firing and bombarding the Sixing Warehouse.
