Chapter 56 Slap in the face
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
On the positions of the artillery regiment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, 54 105mm howitzers and 12 150mm howitzers had already started to roar. Orange-red flames shone in the muzzle, and shells had already roared out of the cannon chamber.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
A sharp roar came from the sky, which was the sound of the shell flying at high speed and friction with the air.
"What's going on?" Colonel Tochigi Kokoro heard the sharp roar, frowned, and raised his head to look at the sky.
"Your Excellency the Corps Captain, shelling! The Chinese people's shelling! Hidden hide quickly." Major Goro Yamane shouted in horror, then threw Colonel Tochigi Koko to the ground, and loyally pressed Colonel Tochigi Kokoko completely under him.
Colonel Tochigi was scolding, but the violent explosion made him swallow half of the words back into his stomach.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The shells fell from the sky and landed onto the Japanese positions, and an explosion occurred.
Suddenly, a wave of sand and stones flew around the Japanese position. Shard and shrapnel were mixed with shrapnel, flying around. Countless Japanese soldiers were hit and torn into pieces.
"Boom!" A shell exploded only a few dozen meters away from Colonel Tochigi. He witnessed several Japanese soldiers being torn into pieces during the explosion. When the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, a huge bomb crater was left on the ground.
"How is it possible? This is definitely the power of a cannon with a caliber of 150 mm. How could the Chinese have such a large caliber?" Colonel Tochigi couldn't believe it at all. But then he rang out. They had a large number of weapons and equipment in the Myitkyina arsenal. Those weapons and equipment also contained many cannons with a caliber of more than 100 caliber.
Now, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army undoubtedly used the Japanese cannons stored in Myitkyina to shell out them.
The Japanese artillery positions were also the main target of the anti-Japanese and national salvation army's artillery bombardment. When the Japanese army's 16 Type 92 infantry cannons fired, the Japanese army seemed very arrogant and expected to rely on these cannons to destroy the will of the anti-Japanese and national salvation army. However, now it seems that this is simply a dream.
"Boom! Boom!" The shells fell like raindrops, and the Japanese artillery position was completely covered by artillery fire. The entire artillery position was blown up in a mess.
One by one, the Type 92 infantry cannons were blown upside down, and many of the cannons were even blown into parts. As for the artillery that operated these cannons, they had been torn to pieces.
The Japanese army's self-righteous violent shelling was just a joke.
"Captain, it's so satisfying! We had never had such a violent shelling when we were in the Expeditionary Force. Before, we had been silently under the Japanese shelling, but now we finally turned it upside down." Liu Shiquan seemed very excited.
He believed that under such a fierce shelling, the 46th Japanese Regiment would have suffered heavy losses. Next, it might not be a big problem to eliminate them.
"In the past, the Japanese used to bully us a lot with their powerful firepower. Now, it's time for us to let them taste the feeling of being bullied." Qin Shou also had a smile on his face.
However, Qin Shou felt that even now, the firepower of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army was far from powerful. If it was truly powerful, it would probably be considered as a result of only after receiving assistance from the Americans. At that time, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army would be transformed and truly have the ability to crush the Japanese army.
"Don't be stingy with the shells, beat me hard. The commander said that he would use the shells to kill all the Japanese. Brothers, as long as he still has the strength, he would carry the shells for me." Yu Fei, the commander of the artillery regiment, smiled and fragile.
Although the artillery regiment was behind the battlefield and could not see the situation ahead, there was no need to think about it and know what kind of scene the Japanese army was under their shelling!
"Yes, regiment commander!" the artillery soldiers replied one after another.
The weather in Myanmar is already relatively humid and hot. The artillery soldiers were so tired that they were sweating profusely. The military uniforms were completely wet and stuck to their bodies, which was very uncomfortable. Many artillery soldiers took off their shirts and carried the artillery shells with their shirtlessness. Everyone wanted to use up all their strength.
The Japanese army is indeed very miserable, as if they are in hell.
The shells kept exploding on them, and every moment, Japanese soldiers were torn into pieces by the shells. The broken limbs and arms flew everywhere.
"Baga, how could this happen? How could the Chinese artillery fire be so fierce?" A Japanese squad leader was already scared. More than half of his squad had died in violent artillery attacks.
After the arrival of the 46th Japanese Army, no fortifications were built. Because they were preparing to launch an attack after the artillery attack, and tore open the defense line of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in one go, and defeat them in one fell swoop. Therefore, there was no need to build fortifications.
But now, everything is completely different from what they expected. Their shelling did not cause any losses to the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Instead, the fierce shelling of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army made them pay a heavy price.
Regardless of whether the Japanese army would like to believe such a result or not, the fact is that they cannot be ignored!
On the positions of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, the officers and soldiers who were originally curled in trenches to avoid Japanese artillery attacks have now poked their heads one by one and began to appreciate the tragic phenomenon of the Japanese army being bombarded.
"Ha! The artillery brothers are so good. Such a fierce shelling is enough for those Japanese to drink a pot."
"Yes! I really didn't expect that we would have a day when we used such fierce artillery fire to bombard the Japanese."
Many officers and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army made such sighs. In the past, when they were in the National Army or Expeditionary Army, they were often bombarded by Japanese troops. Now, everything has been turned upside down, which makes them very excited.
Similarly, this also made them feel more aware of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in their hearts. At least, after joining the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, they saved their lives and were able to win battles.
Most of the soldiers are simple. In this era, whoever can lead them to win battles, save their lives, and give them hope will be willing to fight with whom they are willing to follow. Whether it is their young army commander or Chairman Jiang from Chongqing.
However, from now on the battlefield in Myanmar, the young army commander who followed them was obviously more successful.
