Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

Chapter 1628 The hornet's nest

"Yo Xi." Ushishima Sadao's face was full of joy, as if he agreed with Fujisawa's opinion very much.

"Look, they're starting to launch the boat."

A voice shouted loudly, and everyone hurriedly looked straight ahead, only to see that logs were swooping down from the four slides, and the thrust of the ramps made each log feel like thunder, falling into the water. The water splashed more than ten meters high waves.

The log in front has just fallen into the water, and the log in the back has arrived again. The thrust of the water and the direct impact force make the log quickly push towards the center of the river.

On the shore, there are cranes and trucks everywhere, all of which are operated by machines, making all this very fast.

It's just that these logs don't look like boats at all. Although it can be seen that there are holes chiseled at both ends or in the center of the trees, any one of them is a huge monster weighing several tons or more, and it is impossible for manpower to Swipe them.

Ushishima Sadao seemed to understand something, his face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "No, they are going to fill up the river with trees."

Everyone present was a little stunned, obviously frightened by these words, and the little Fujisawa who came back to his senses said suspiciously: "Fill up the river? This... is impossible, the river is flowing, and the trees will flow down with the flowing water. How much time and how many trees will it take to fill the river?"

Sadao Ushishima narrowed his eyes slightly, a gloomy light flashed, and said in a cold voice: "It is impossible to paddle this kind of 'boat' with manpower. They are erected as a bracket to allow these logs to cross the river quickly. , the impact of the waves will counteract the force of the current, and maybe in less than one night, they can fill the entire river."

Little Fujisawa suddenly felt hot on his face. Just now he was out of his wits when he teased others, but now it seems that he is ignorant. If this plan can become a reality, the time for the national army to cross the river can be shortened by more than double, and it is safe fast.

And it is suitable for large-scale attacks by large troops. The infantry walks on the water as if walking on the ground, and all kinds of tactical actions are consistent. In this way, the suppressive firepower of the locust army seems a bit weak.

"They must not be allowed to succeed." Little Fujisawa exclaimed: "I think the artillery wing should be gathered immediately and destroy their four slides."

The island army knew that its artillery could not compete head-on with the national army, so the artillery regiments were also scattered in various regions, making full use of the terrain and geographical advantages to build them, so that they could not only play a suppressive role, but also not be easily destroyed by the national army.

Putting the artillery regiment on the front to fight against the national army is undoubtedly looking for death. This kind of low-level mistake Ushishima Sadao would not make, but he did not directly refuse. After a little thought, Ushishima Sadao said: "Order the front The 58th opened fire, destroying their chute."

The actual distance between the two armies will not exceed 400 meters, and small-caliber artillery can fully cover it. It is not a bad idea to take this opportunity to test the defensive firepower of the Chinese army.

Considering that the national army might bomb indiscriminately, after the order was issued, Ushishima Sadao and his party went directly to the ground, and the entire jungle was full of their bomb holes.

Two minutes later, there was a sudden burst of gunfire on the defense line of the island army, and dense ammunition smashed towards the defense line of the national army on the opposite bank.

But in less than a minute, there were terrifying screams from behind the defense line of the national army, followed by rapid bursts of fire. The entire north bank of the Cagayan River seemed to be covered by artillery fire, and the land was shaken by landslides.

At first glance, this posture is a heavy artillery, cannon, with a caliber of at least more than one hundred, and it is still a group of artillery.

The poor scattered small-caliber artillery of the island army was completely submerged in an instant, and there was no sound at all.

The only thing that was rampant was the firepower of the machine gun, and the bullets still swept across like rain in flakes, flying towards the opposite bank.

Although machine guns can't destroy the fortifications, there are still many construction vehicles and personnel on the opposite bank. As long as they kill them in large numbers, they can also play a retarding role.

But the island army made a mistake in their wishful thinking. Almost at the moment they launched the attack, Sherman tanks came out from the rear and lined up on the opposite bank to form a steel protection. Machine guns and tank guns fired wildly.

The island country is currently extremely scarce in supplies and cannot withstand a long-term ineffective attack. Therefore, after 5 minutes, they voluntarily stopped firing.

But the national army still bombarded them indiscriminately for more than ten minutes, as if telling the island army in retaliatory means not to provoke them easily, otherwise there will be endless bombing.

Half an hour later, Ushishima Sadao came out of the ground. The place where they were standing just now was full of bomb craters. The national army did not set a target at all. The whole thing was a bombardment, and it is estimated that all areas within the range of the artillery fire Plowed several times.

Looking at the devastation, Ushishima Sadao's face was livid, but the water column on the other side appeared in his field of vision again at this time, and the national army began to throw trees into the river again, so arrogant that they almost ignored the locust army .

"Bageya Road." Ushishima Sadao uttered a few words between his teeth, trembling with anger.

A major staff officer with no winks reported the battle damage to him at this time. Just this round of bombing caused nearly a thousand casualties in the locust army, and countless fortifications were destroyed.

Ushijima Sadao, who couldn't get out of his anger, immediately slapped the unlucky Shao Zuo to the ground, and finally walked into the depths of the jungle with a dark face and no words.

Chief of Staff Xiao Fujisawa sighed lightly, waved to a senior officer beside him, and when the senior officer stepped forward, he said softly: "Captain Noma, I leave this place to you, and we must stop the army from passing by at all costs." He, I will truthfully report everything here to the headquarters, and I believe General Yamashita and Horei will come up with a feasible plan as soon as possible."

"Hay, I'll leave everything to General Xiaoteng. Don't worry at the front. As long as I, Noma Sanshin, have breath, I will never let a single soldier cross the river."

"So, please."

After Kotosawa finished speaking, he bowed to Noma Sanshin, then turned around and quickly followed Ushishima Sadao.

On the road, a command tank and several motorcycles drove out from the jungle. Ushishima Sadao got on the command tank without saying a word, and it seemed that he was going back to the command headquarters.

The situation in front of them is almost unsolvable, and the specific response plan has to be carefully studied by the headquarters. Time is already very tight for them.

The command vehicle drove quickly, several motorcycles cleared the way ahead, and a squadron of soldiers surrounded the command vehicle.

There were still a few troop carriers when they came, and they probably suffered damage during the bombing. No one would be in the mood to mention this matter now.

The headquarters was set up in the rear more than ten miles away, away from the bombing center.
