Rise From Eight Hundred

Chapter 152 Arena

Hundreds of meters away, the Japanese frontline headquarters.

The Japanese colonel’s hand holding the telescope had veins popping out after Tang Dao launched the first round of shooting.

Nearly crushed the valuable telescope to pieces.

Although the thick smoke prevented him from seeing clearly the fire points in the building from a few hundred meters away, he could clearly see that the soldiers he had started charging were falling.

At this rate of casualties, even if the three infantry squads at the forefront can rush to the planned blasting position under the building, there may not be many people left.

 But unfortunately, the Japanese commander still overestimated his subordinates.

 How many of them are left there?

In less than two minutes, all the soldiers who rushed forward were cut with leeks. The **** leeks were even more ruthless than the A-crowns that liked to dig up the roots in the future.

 The look on His Excellency Colonel’s face at that moment! It was as ugly as seeing hundreds of big white buttocks sticking up on our own battlefield the day before.

Makino Jun kept his eyes straight and remained silent. However, the Major Captain of the 2nd Infantry Battalion had trembling lips, but he did not dare to talk nonsense.

　　The infantry squadron captain at the front was ordered to launch a ‘Long Live Charge’. In this opinion, it was definitely a stupid idea. Without a moment’s notice, most of the infantry squadron was injured or killed? This does not even include the battle losses on both wings.

At this rate of loss, the regiment that has just received heavy supplies and regained some health might not be able to finish the battle and enter the ranks of the infantry brigade.

Becoming a colonel-level infantry battalion captain is an honor or something?

  It can only be said that this Japanese major's wish is quite good.

 An infantry brigade has a full strength of 1,100 people!

The boss in front of him with a foul-looking face was already a madman.

 In other words, I have assumed the role of the old madman Nogi Nogi Nogi, and I just have to carry the coffin and go into battle.

Sihang Warehouse has become a position that is stuck in the throat of the 3rd Division in Zhabei District, Songhu. It fought for several days and suffered heavy casualties, not to mention being taken. It was also laughed at by the Westerners in the concession, which further aroused the Chinese people's resistance. determination.

Jiro Wakiba had already issued a military order to the divisional headquarters in the early morning. He must capture the four-row warehouse no matter what. If one infantry squadron is dead, then another infantry squadron will be sent.

  If the entire 36th Infantry Regiment dies, the division will send another infantry regiment. Those were the original words of the Japanese Army Lieutenant General.

The infantry artillery was at a disadvantage in the exchange of fire with the Chinese machine guns. One artillery team completely lost its combat effectiveness, and another artillery team was completely wiped out because the artillery shell was hit and exploded.

That doesn't matter, the 120 field artillery will come to help.

  In any case, the frightened Westerners did not put up any substantial resistance.

The 40 Japanese soldiers who were repulsed by Tang Dao and Lei Xionghan's crazy output of firepower without fear of death did not run far. They repaired slightly in a temporary bunker more than 200 meters away and then returned to the battlefield.

Whether they have the intention to fight or not, the supervisory team in the rear is real.

According to the order of Colonel Wakiitajiro, the second lieutenant-level team leader took the lead in the charge, followed by the lieutenant and captain. If they were all dead, then the major and captain would personally lead the charge. If they were still all dead, then he and Lieutenant Colonel Makino Toshi The two led the team separately.

Under the completely crazy order of Colonel Wakiitajiro, the Japanese army fired all the guns, whether it was the 70-meter infantry cannon or the two 120-meter field guns, except for the 75-meter mountain cannon, which had a slightly larger error. This was after the Japanese infantry had arrived. About 100 meters to the front at the moment.

That has far exceeded the Japanese army's army drill regulations that the infantry and artillery coordination should not be less than 200 meters. It is definitely a hell-level battlefield.

 It was not the Sihang Warehouse that was trembling under the crazy Japanese artillery fire.

However, the Japanese infantry would be blasted into the sky from time to time by their own artillery that had its muzzle slightly lowered.

Watching the Japanese soldiers become dead souls under their own artillery fire, if it were in the past, there would have been another mountain roar and tsunami on the south bank of the Suzhou River.

 But this time, everyone pursed their lips and clenched their fists in silence.

 They could feel the decisiveness of the Japanese attack this time, even more than the previous one.

The infantrymen marched forward one after another. Even though corpses were spread fifty meters in front of the warehouse, they still crawled forward resolutely.

And for the first time, that kind of heart-stopping large-caliber artillery was carried out simultaneously with the Japanese infantry attack.

From time to time, window fortifications were smashed, and large pieces of reinforced concrete were blown away. Visible to the naked eye, the warehouse walls were severely damaged for the first time. Can the Chinese defenders in Sihang Warehouse still be able to support themselves?

 No one can answer their question, including the defenders in the warehouse and even Tang Dao.

The first floor, which originally had the best shooting range, can no longer stay.

 The Japanese army's 120 field guns and nearly 10 infantry guns lowered their muzzles to a terrifying level, and they even did not hesitate to blast their own infantry into the sky.

Nearly all the window fortifications on the first floor were blown to pieces, and many artillery shells even hit the lobby on the first floor before exploding, blowing up the inverted triangular ambush formation inside the first floor into debris.

If Tang Dao hadn't sensed something was wrong due to the sudden increase in Japanese artillery fire and ordered all personnel on the first floor to evacuate to the second and third floors, the casualties on the first floor would have been unbearable.

 The second and third floors are not necessarily safe.

The thick wall suffered extensive damage for the first time. Three consecutive heavy artillery bombardments hit the corner of the window with violent explosions, even covering a heavy machine gun group more than five meters away.

The air wave was still blocked by the wall, but the gravel flying everywhere was more terrifying than the bullets.

The three-person heavy machine gun team originally crawled behind the shooting hole and fired desperately, and was able to avoid most of the rubble, but a lot of rubble still hit them.

The heavy machine gun transferred from the two wings was deformed by the crazy rocks, and together with the three heavy machine gun shooters, they were beaten into three **** gourds.

 Soldiers not far from them rushed over and carried the three of them into the room. Almost each of them used more than 6 first-aid kits to stop the rapid flow of blood.

But Tang Dao knew that it was just a solace. Not only would the massive blood loss soon take away their lives, but the bacteria carried by the large amount of gravel in their bodies would have no chance of infecting the wounds.

 And this time, no one can accompany them, even when they leave.

The battle has become intense. There are only about a hundred people in the warehouse, and they are responsible for the defense on three sides. Even the medical soldiers and signal soldiers have entered the fighting position with shell guns.

There are not enough shooting holes. Just after the sandbag fortification, even if you know very well that the Japanese artillery will blast yourself and the sandbag fortification into pieces at some time, you still have to shoot the bullets in the empty gun not far away.

 Only when changing magazines and clips can you hide behind the wall again.

Tang Dao lost control of the battlefield for the first time.

He has completely abandoned the rifle, and no matter how accurate his shooting skills are, it is no longer effective in front of the crazy Japanese army.

The Japanese soldiers seemed to be completely numb robots. They killed one of them. The infantrymen behind them were covered in the blood of their colleagues and continued to crawl over the corpses of their colleagues.

This was an extremely small battle in a fierce battle in which China and Japan invested millions of troops, but it was undoubtedly a battle destined to be recorded in the annals of history.

Even the military history of the Japanese army recorded the battle on the morning of October 31 in extremely detail after the war.

 Because of this battle, while the Chinese defenders were brave and tenacious without fear of life and death, the Japanese army in the offensive state also showed the same will quality.

The two sides are like gladiators fighting in a **** arena. The needle is pointed at the awning. If you stab me, I will take a step forward and spit blood in your face.

 Chinese people are born towards death.

 But the Japanese are dying for death.

 The fighting was so brutal that reporters from both China and Japan could not hold their pens tightly.

Tantai Mingyue leaned against the corner of the high-rise window with a pale face.

If this were not the case, she was afraid that she would collapse due to the severe pain in her heart.

 She learned in the morning that her hero was still in the warehouse, and he refused to leave for the sake of his brothers.

Can that not-so-handsome face appear again?

 Even if he refuses her interview!
