Age of Rebirth

Chapter 430: A Head-on Blow

According to the time, the landing troops had already approached the landing site, but there was no gunfire, and Matsui Iwane's face became more and more peaceful.

Before the vanguard division set off, the head of the division, Yoshizumi Yoshisuke, said to Matsui without worry: "Your Excellency, our division landed on the beach. There is no heavy firepower to cover the landing, and the firepower of the Chinese defenders will be suppressed. Once the Chinese army launches a counterattack, On an empty beach with no concealment, the troops will suffer serious losses, so I suggest that the heavy artillery brigade follow the first echelon and provide the necessary fire support."

Matsui smiled reservedly, without comment, and turned his eyes to the surging sea, which was tantamount to rejecting Yoshizumi's suggestion. Yoshizumi said, who would let this old guy be the commander? It is unprecedented for soldiers to land with rifles I heard, I hope the defenders of China are still dreaming, otherwise, my division will be finished.

In fact, the actions of the Japanese army at sea fell into the eyes of the lookout post set up at a high place, and they immediately reported to General Zhang Zhizhong, the commander of the Ninth Army. General Zhang immediately entered the headquarters to pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese army. [

The landing location chosen by the Jizhu Division happened to be the Wusong area defended by the two brigades of the Tenth Army Group. Chang Feng saw all the actions of the Japanese army. He ordered the troops not to see the signal, and no one was allowed to shoot. Liangfu was uneasy. The landing craft had already docked, and there was no movement on the beach.

The soldiers waded through waist-deep sea water and landed on the beach, but there was still no movement, only barbed wire fences standing there coldly. Jizhu relied on the soldier's intuition, it was too abnormal, such a large beach, there was no A defender of China, if you want to call it an idiot, can't reach this level, there must be a conspiracy here, maybe it's a big trap, he doesn't have the conceit of that old guy Matsui.

The laughter of the soldiers came from the front. The barbed wire fence erected by the Chinese soldiers was like a child’s game. You can jump over it with just one jump. I’m afraid the Chinese soldiers haven’t learned how to set up obstacles on the beach. The Japanese soldiers ran a few steps like a race. , soaring into the sky, the low barbed wire passed by under him, and people in the air couldn't help laughing triumphantly.

The soles of his feet were in severe pain, and the laughter stopped abruptly. The Japanese soldier sat down on the ground, screamed again, and sat on the nail board again, his buttocks were pierced into a sieve. It turned out that he wasn't the only one, and the partners who crossed the barbed wire first were all virtuous, grinning and holding their feet there.

For a samurai of the Great Japanese Empire, this little injury was like drizzle. He stood up and was about to charge, but the partner behind him had already surpassed him, and his head skills were about to fail. His thigh softened, and he fell heavily to the ground. It didn't seem to be on my body, I didn't feel a little bit, the wound didn't hurt anymore, it was itchy, numb, and it looked swollen.

There were more than 1000 Japanese soldiers on the nail board in front of the first barbed wire fence, and even more fell on the second nail board. The Japanese soldiers who wanted to do meritorious service for His Majesty the Emperor did not notice what happened behind In front of him is the bustling big Shanghai, there are big gold tickets and beauties, and they charge forward bravely like mad dogs. There are more than [-] soldiers lying on the ground, covering their feet and howling, which finally attracted the attention of the Japanese army commander. , Immediately ordered to stop advancing.

The Japanese military doctor who rushed over looked at the soldier's swollen thighs and couldn't figure out why. He was at a loss, and was slapped several times by Yoshizumi Ryosuke, who had arrived on the beach after the last landing, and repeatedly scolded "pigs". "In his opinion, this is a bad start. Around the wounded Japanese soldiers, there are hundreds of nail boards.

Looking at these creepy nail boards, Ji Zhu scolded the Chinese people for their cunning. All the soldiers of Ji Zhu's division had already landed and crowded in front of the barbed wire fence. Obstacles were cleared and a passage was opened. Soon, a passage with a width of more than 200 meters was cleared, and no less than a few hundred pieces of nail boards were removed.

The captain of the Japanese army wiped the sweat from his forehead, laughed triumphantly, and waved "Hayagu", and the Japanese army in the brigade rushed up the beach very quickly.

Suddenly, violent explosions sounded like cannonballs, steel balls and landmine fragments flying all over the sky, covering the Japanese army like a torrential rain, and the landmines flew into the air and exploded as if they had grown wings. It was full of steel balls, and the eyeballs hung on the face and dangled. Covering the face, rolling and wailing in pain, many landmines were triggered.

The Japanese soldiers in the front were attacked from the air, while the Japanese soldiers behind were suffering from underground pain. With an explosion, several Japanese soldiers were thrown into the air, and their bloody broken legs turned into meat paste. A weird scene on the battlefield, the minefields were at work, a regiment of Japanese troops was killed by nail boards and landmines, four-fifths of the troops were killed, and the rest were also covered in wounds and lost their combat effectiveness.

Ryosuke Yoshizumi's heart was in severe pain, and he hadn't seen the shadow of the Chinese defenders. One of his main regiments was reimbursed on the beach like this. The bloody and fragmented corpses of the soldiers stimulated his nerves, and it was impossible to retreat. , Only continue to attack along the passage opened by the soldiers with the corpses. There are still two regiments of troops.

Looking at the Japanese soldiers swarming up, being blown away by land mines from time to time, but also rushing through the minefield, Chang Feng had a mocking smile on his lips, this kind of Tang Qiuli's signature smile, people who have worked in the independent division headquarters No, no, the Japanese commander is either crazy or extremely arrogant. This kind of large-scale landing operation, without artillery cover, using pure infantry to land, is hitting his head on the iron plate, and he is impatient to live. !

It's time, the mines have been almost consumed, Chang Feng ordered to send a signal, the silent beach suddenly became furious, light and heavy machine guns roared like roaring, the wind could not distinguish the number, a metal wall composed of blocks, Hitting head-on at the Japanese brigade on the beach, the Japanese soldiers who were caught off guard were knocked down in pieces.

The formation of the Japanese army was too dense, with more than 8000 people crowded into the front that was less than a few kilometers wide. The mortars did not need to be aimed at all, just fired at the Japanese army. One shot, pulled up a bunch of people, and the Japanese soldiers were really brave , Lie down on the spot, and raised his gun to fight back, but the rifle was an opponent with nearly a thousand light and heavy machine guns, and it didn't even have enough range, so he was beaten to pieces.

The heavy machine guns and mortars of the Japanese army on the landing craft saw that the situation was not good, and desperately used firepower to support the landing troops who were suppressed on the beach and were unable to fight back after being beaten. The mortar and the shooter were blown to pieces and sank into the sea. Burning Japanese landing craft were everywhere on the sea. Several landing craft felt that the situation was over and they turned their bows to try to escape.

How can there be such a cheap thing? It fell into Chang Feng's calculations. Originally, no one was left behind. Dozens of cannons roared past and sank them in the sea. Chang Feng was very smart not to use large-caliber heavy guns. It was found that the Japanese landing troops not only did not prepare for artillery fire, but did not even have artillery to provide suppression and support, so it was determined that the mortars would hit the Japanese landing troops, and the Type [-] infantry would bombard the Japanese landing craft.

More than an hour later, more than 8000 soldiers of the Yoshizumi Division were all dead on Wusong Beach. This was a unilateral massacre. The Japanese army without artillery cover could fight back. Even if they die, they can't resist the cannon and the sub, and the independent division has always been known for its superiority in firepower.

The corpses of the Japanese soldiers rushing to the beachhead were piled up in a thick layer. They were shot dead by the Suomi submachine gun at close range. The Japanese soldiers who used the [-]-style rifle fired a shot and pulled the bolt to load it. During the time, at least a dozen rounds from the Suomi submachine gun penetrated into his body. Therefore, the corpses of Japanese soldiers did not have only one shot, and they were covered with sieves. [

Ryosuke Yoshizumi can no longer command his division. For the ambition and greed of Emperor Hirohito, he has made great achievements in China. A few mortar shells tore this Lieutenant General of the Imperial Japanese Army, His Excellency the Division Commander, to pieces. There was no complete corpse at all, only two dim stars on one side of the corpse, indicating that this was once a part of Ryosuke Yoshizumi's body, and even the gold-threaded command knife was blown into several pieces.

His ambition and killing intent were destined to disappear the moment he landed on the beach in Shanghai, China. The corpses of Japanese soldiers were all over the beach, and the beach was dark red. It dyed the sea water reddish, and took away some of the corpses of Japanese soldiers, gradually drifting to the depths of the sea, the direction of the drift was the Japanese archipelago, but, can their souls return to their homeland?

Part of Matsui Iwane's dispatched troops to Shanghai, the creators of the Nanjing massacre, was terminated here ahead of time when their butcher knives were not pulled out and stretched out to the innocent Chinese civilians, with their rampant desire and bloodthirsty Their ambitions turned into cold corpses. Perhaps they did not understand the universal truth that murderers must be killed. To this day, the vast majority of Japanese people do not understand this truth.

The battle mainly took place in the defense area of ​​the Tenth Army. The friendly troops on both sides watched the fierce battle intensely. However, they soon discovered that the battle was one-sided. Fighting back, the ferocity of the Tenth Army's firepower was beyond their imagination. The heavy machine gun was like the wind, and the cannon was like hail. These soldiers of the Central Army can only describe it in this way.

With more than 4 people against nearly 300 Japanese troops, they wiped out all the Japanese troops. Even the commander of the lieutenant general did not escape. The Tenth Army had less than [-] casualties. It was a complete victory, a miracle, a miracle!

General Zhang Zhizhong, who witnessed the whole battle process, flushed with excitement, threw the binoculars aside, and in the headquarters, he did not care about losing his composure, waved his fists and shouted loudly in front of the staff officers, big and small.
