Age of Rebirth

Chapter 470

Xu Shan's heart tightened, the commander-in-chief had assigned him some work, and he listened intently for fear of missing a single word, "Xu Shan, I entrusted your Air Defense Brigade with a mission to shoot Japanese warships with anti-aircraft guns. Is it?" Tang Qiusheng asked, "Yes, yes, sure, please rest assured that the commander-in-chief promises to dig a few holes in the little devil's warship and sink it into the sea to feed the old turtle!" The commander repented, and the task in hand flew again.

"Well, use all the artillery fire to suppress the firepower of the Japanese naval guns and ensure that the artillery can bombard the Japanese troops on the beach normally!" Xu Shan put down the phone, elated, and immediately came to the head of the spirit, "Pass me the order, the artillery aiming radar will search for the main force." The target, each gun position is immediately replaced with armor-piercing, eight guns form a gun group, concentrate artillery to attack a Japanese warship, listen to me, pick a big guy to fight, the plane in the sky can beat it down, such a big guy , don't be ashamed!"

Xu Shan was focused on fighting battles. He didn't think carefully about how powerful and effective the anti-aircraft guns used by aircraft were against rough-skinned warships. For armor-piercing, the high-explosive armor-piercing produced by Huangyadong Arsenal is extremely powerful. At least, the facilities on the deck of the Japanese ship cannot withstand this kind of gun.

If a few anti-aircraft guns are concentrated to bombard a target, no one knows what effect it will have. We can only find out after the battle is over. Due to the two correct orders of Xu Shan, the commander of the air defense brigade, this battle between anti-aircraft guns and warship guns The duel has undergone dramatic changes, which also created the first example in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War. [

The anti-aircraft gun with a slender barrel slowly pointed to the distant sea. The gun sight radar was turned on to search. Soon, all the gun groups locked on the target. The gunners listened intently to the voice of the commander, "Let go!" A crisp command sound came from inside.

What anti-aircraft guns pursue is the rate of fire. When the trigger is pressed, a series of eight guns roars out, eight guns, 64 rounds, and fly towards the Japanese warship that is in full swing, without the slightest notice.

There was no artillery suppression, and the gunners on the Japanese ship felt relaxed. From their point of view, this was a one-sided artillery battle. Just pour the guns on the heads of the Chinese, and the Japanese gunners worked hard. He took off his shirt and ruthlessly stuffed a cannon into the barrel.

While working in a comfortable mood, suddenly there was a muffled sound on the gun emplacement, followed by a violent explosion. This was terrible. The anti-aircraft gun penetrated the protective armor of the gun emplacement of the Japanese ship and exploded directly inside. The flames were shining, thick smoke was everywhere, and the first round of anti-aircraft artillery bombardment was aimed at the main battleships of the Fourth Fleet.

Before the Japanese sailors could understand what was going on, the second round of guns landed on the warship and ignited a huge fire. The captain of the Japanese ship was confused. This is not Wusongkou.Not allowing him to think too much, the cannons landed on the deck roaring one after another.

The Japanese sailors in charge of damage control desperately extinguished the fire with a faucet. A burst of guns flew in. They were blown up into the air and fell heavily into the sea. Although a single-shot anti-aircraft gun was not as powerful as a large-caliber naval gun However, in terms of rate of fire, the ants killed more elephants, coupled with [-]% accuracy, the small and delicate anti-aircraft guns were all borne by the huge hull of the Japanese ship.

So far, the Japanese ship has not figured out which direction the bombardment came from, and there is no target if they want to fight back. Although the anti-aircraft guns are not enough to pose a fatal threat to the large-tonnage main battleship of the Japanese army, the turrets on the deck suffered. The anti-aircraft guns easily penetrated the protective armor and exploded in the turrets. The Japanese gunners operating the naval guns suffered heavy casualties. From time to time, all the gunners in the turrets died, and the naval guns became dumb.

An anti-aircraft gun, with miraculous accuracy, drilled through the barrel of the Japanese naval gun and exploded in the bore. The explosion caused disasters to the medicine depot in the turret. The entire turret flew into the sky amidst the explosion, tore the upper deck, and transmitted the huge power to the bottom, causing serious damage.

The huge hull of the Japanese ship seemed to be pushed into the sea by a powerful hand in the air, and then, it rose up instead, jumped high out of the water, and fell heavily again.

No matter how strong something is, it can't help such tossing. Almost all the commanders of the Japanese ship were stunned to see this huge ship, which was broken into two parts, turned around, and was instantly swallowed by the sea. There were also fireworks on the warship, and the gun positions were severely damaged. They didn't know what new weapons the Chinese army had equipped to deal with warships.

The Fourth Fleet of the Japanese Navy, a main battleship, was sunk by a small anti-aircraft gun. If you tell me, you will not believe that, but the fact is so boring. With the sinking of a battleship, it seems that the fourth The death knell of the fleet, the commander of the fleet, Vice Admiral Liu Xiafu, no longer cared about it. He provided fire support to the army that was being attacked by the Chinese artillery, and hurriedly ordered all warships to leave the fire range of the Chinese artillery and withdraw to the open sea to stand by.

The Japanese ships reversed urgently, covered in thick smoke, and fled to the sea off Hangzhou Bay at the fastest speed. Fortunately, except for the turret on the deck, which was broken into broken copper and iron, the main parts were damaged. Not serious, does not hinder retreat.

In the position of the air defense brigade, on the artillery radar screen, the little red dot representing the Japanese ship is getting smaller and smaller. The soldiers who were fighting with great interest had no choice but to give up, "The devil warship has been repulsed!" A burst of cheers Resounding across the battlefield, Xu Shan grabbed the phone and announced the good news to the commander-in-chief. Before he knew it, he had sunk a main battleship of the Fourth Fleet of the Japanese Navy.

Without the suppression of the firepower of the naval guns on the Japanese ships, those who waited for the first wave to land on the Japanese army would have an extremely tragic end. The three artillery brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps, all the artillery were repeatedly plowed and plowed on the original Eighth Army position, flesh and blood The vague corpses of Japanese soldiers were all over the beach.

The violent volcanic artillery fire completely destroyed the Japanese army's will to fight. The commander wanted to charge desperately, but the dense artillery fire made it impossible for the Japanese army to even gather at the minimum. The two divisions had 7 troops There were many soldiers, and more than 4 people fell under the shelling. From Caojing Town, Quangong Pavilion to Jinsiniang Bridge, all the Japanese landing sites were covered by the messy corpses of Japanese soldiers.

The first wave of landing troops of Yanagawa Hirasuke had less than 2 troops left, and most of them were killed by the artillery fire of the independent division.

After more than two hours of fierce fighting, the landing Japanese troops were repulsed and suffered heavy casualties. The casualties of Tang Qiusheng's troops were mainly concentrated in the artillery units, and they were all injured by the guns of the Japanese ships. The infantry on the front line did not wait for the Japanese army's charge , the casualties were extremely slight.

The sun dispelled the fog, and the sight was restored. The scene of the Jinshanwei landing site could be seen at a glance. With the help of Liu Chuanping, he put down the binoculars. He couldn't bear to see the yellow soldiers' corpses on the beach. All of this was unacceptable to him. He didn't understand that the well-prepared landing battle went very smoothly at the beginning, but in the end it turned out like this.

He didn't dare to let the second wave of landing troops carry out a forced landing. It could only be a living target for the Chinese artillery. If the threat of the Chinese artillery was not resolved, everything started from the beginning. He vented his anger to the Fourth Fleet Commander Liu Xiafu, if the navy hadn't retreated and the landing troops lost the cover of artillery fire, how could there be so many casualties? [

In the walkie-talkie, the two men quarreled, and the landing craft of the entire second batch of landing troops were parked on the sea not far away. The observers of the artillery brigade saw a relatively large ship from the artillery mirror. On the landing craft, there was a conspicuous Japanese military flag, which was particularly eye-catching. He used his brains to figure out that this might be the landing craft that Commander Devil was riding on.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, shoot a guy first, and immediately report the position and coordinates. On the artillery position, there are more than a dozen large-caliber cannons, slowly turning the muzzles, and the cannons whistling across the sea, hitting the target accurately, then The landing craft turned into steel fragments flying all over the sky in an instant, and even a few wisps of fireworks seemed so thin. This was a direct hit from more than a dozen large-caliber guns.

Everyone in the Sulu Mobile Corps did not know that on that landing craft, the main force of Japan's landing in Hangzhou Bay, the temporary headquarters of the Tenth Army, the commander Yanagawa Heisuke and his main staff were all killed Here, not even a single residue can be found, perhaps Yanagawa himself would never have thought that his life would end in this way.

Yanagikawa, the commander of the Fourth Fleet of the Japanese Navy, who was accusing each other with Hirasuke Yanagawa, jumped up in shock from the violent explosion coming from his earphones. to echo.

Tang Qiusheng, who had mastered the entire Jinshanwei battlefield, found that the Japanese army seemed to be in a panic. Not only did they not follow up with landing troops, but they showed signs of retreating. Although he didn't know the reason, there was a favorable situation. The troops, with the strength of two brigades, carried out a counterattack against the remnants of the Japanese army huddled on the beach, even if they could not wipe them all out, they would drive them into the sea.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the troops that had been suffocating for a long time rushed towards the Japanese army like a tsunami. After all, the Japanese army still had a relatively good tradition and did not run for their own lives. There were about 3000 Japanese soldiers. Under the command of a senior commander, a blocking position was established on the spot to cover most of the Japanese troops boarding the landing craft and fleeing for their lives out to sea.

The Japanese soldiers who were determined to die exploded with astonishing combat power. There was actually a large group of soldiers, holding bright bayonets, shouting slogans, and rushed towards the troops. There was no hand-to-hand combat. The troops of the Independent Division have always been Emphasizing the superiority of firepower, the Suomi submachine gun screamed, and rows of Japanese soldiers were knocked down.
