Chapter 3322 Death’s Footsteps
Chapter 3220 The footsteps of death
Wang Bin Street.
After being repeatedly combed by artillery fire, the place was covered with blood and broken limbs. It was too horrible to see.
Almost all of it is the blood of Japanese soldiers!
The Japanese soldiers here never imagined that they would receive such high "treatment"!
Are the US military afraid that they have thrown all the artillery shells at their own heads?
Those Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to survive the bombing came out of the trenches in fear and soon discovered that the American troops on the opposite side had already assumed an offensive posture.
A Sherman tank, the reinforcement Lieutenant Colonel Musi had just received.
Under the cover of tanks, the U.S. military began to approach the Japanese positions.
Their speed is not very fast.
Sherman also fired a shot from time to time.
The surviving Japanese troops reentered the position in a panic.
Gunfire rang out on the battlefield again.
This was the first time Meng Shaoyuan actually directed a U.S. military attack.
With absolute artillery superiority, the offensive operations obviously became much smoother.
The Rangers advanced methodically.
They were probably helpless against the tanks and completely despairing. The two Japanese soldiers held explosive bags, screamed hysterically, and rushed towards here crazily.
However, the U.S. military had already overcome the initial confusion when it entered Manila, and had long been accustomed to the crazy behavior of the Japanese army.
Under repeated strikes from various firepower, the two crazy Japanese soldiers were immediately knocked to the ground.
"Boom, boom"!
Two explosive charges exploded violently.
Meng Shaoyuan clearly remembers that during the US military's battle to recapture Manila, the main offensive mode of the defensive Japanese army was to rush forward with explosive packets in hand.
Previously, Meng Shaoyuan, who was an outsider in military divisions, was still wondering, isn't there a better way?
After all, under Iwabuchi's leadership three times, Manila has become a huge fortress!
Even if the Japanese army holds on, there is no need to die together?
But now, when he experienced this battlefield personally, he realized that this was really the only choice for the Japanese army.
Facing the Japanese fortress, the US military first bombarded it with the 75mm artillery of Sherman tanks.
If the effect cannot be achieved, a 155 mm caliber heavy artillery bombardment will be called.
Under such indiscriminate bombardment, the Japanese troops hiding behind their positions and in the fortress were just hanging on, waiting for death to come.
What's more serious is the mental blow!
This is like a person who is being chased by the God of Death, hiding in a confined space, unable to do anything, and can only listen to the footsteps of the God of Death in despair, getting closer and closer.
And now, the Japanese soldiers are the ones waiting to die.
The U.S. military’s artillery shells are the footsteps of death!
After a complete breakdown, they will do such crazy things.
Meng Shaoyuan remembered more clearly that in his time, there were some shameless Chinese elites who said that in the Battle of Luzon Island, the Japanese army performed so bravely, just like the Chinese soldiers during the Anti-Japanese War, holding explosives and fighting with the US military.
perish together.
Is this fucking comparable?
One is to sacrifice one's life for righteousness in the face of invasion and defend one's homeland, to sacrifice one's life for benevolence, and to be remembered forever.
Where is the Japanese army?
As an aggressor, after committing all kinds of beastly acts, he made the last and craziest act of despair in the face of justice.
Because they abused US military prisoners of war, causing countless US military prisoners of war to die violently, and completely ignored the Geneva Treaty.
So, their superiors told them that when they surrendered, they would face the same outcome.
When people do something wrong, they always worry that others will treat them in the same way.
Two Japanese soldiers died, but it was not over.
Four more Japanese soldiers rushed out carrying explosive bags.
These people are completely crazy.
They were naked to the waist, with diapers on their heads, and they were shouting words that no one could understand.
What greeted them was still a heavy rain-like blow!
Not long after, the ground was covered with corpses in front of the position.
Of course, this still had a certain effect, at least it delayed the Rangers' attack.
"Major, let me lead the charge." Lieutenant William said loudly.
Since the attack at the Pagorie School was frustrated, Lieutenant William urgently needed a chance to prove himself.
"There is no need to increase casualties." Meng Shaoyuan picked up the telescope and looked at the opposite side for a while: "Continue to call for artillery fire."
The U.S. military's artillery shells are simply endless.
Not long after the call, the shells arrived as expected.
After this attack, it was obvious that the resistance on the opposite side was reduced again.
When they advanced again, the resistance the rangers encountered was not as fierce as before.
And those crazy Japanese soldiers never showed up again.
However, when they advanced to a short distance from the position, the Japanese troops hiding in the bombed fortress suddenly appeared together.
The bullets blew away like a whirlwind.
"These damn Japanese monkeys!" Lieutenant William was completely furious.
However, Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
This distance is enough.
He said calmly: "I remember that the lieutenant colonel gave us a team of flamethrowers."
"Aha, look at my brain." Lieutenant William suddenly smiled: "Hey, Looney, damn it, let those six flamethrowers come up. Cover, cover."
Soon, the flamethrowers arrived at the front line.
Meng Shaoyuan pointed forward: "Is it okay?"
As their captain, Sergeant James took the measurements: "No problem, Major."
"William, cover fire!"
With an order, the rangers opened fire.
The Japanese army was suppressed instantly.
And at this moment, the fire-breathing soldiers appeared.
The United States, the Soviet Union and Germany are countries that use hunting flamethrowers in large numbers.
The flamethrowers used by the United States are the most advanced napalm in the world.
This is a colloidal substance made by adding coagulant to ordinary gasoline. It is not easy to change the direction of injection and has a range of more than 50 meters.
This improvement method is obviously more advanced than the German army.
The key is the distance of 50 meters.
This is the most important point!
On the real battlefield, flamethrowers are one of the most dangerous arms, and their death rate is even higher than that of death squads.
One of the fatal problems is the range.
As a melee unit, the Flametroopers shoulder the mission of rushing to the front line.
After all, the most difficult targets in the two battles are the enemies within the bunker fortifications.
In order to blow up a bunker, ordinary soldiers often need to get close to the bunker one after another and then blow it up with explosives. The price paid in the process is quite high.
But if you switch to a fire-breathing soldier, it will be very simple. He only needs to spray once, and it doesn't matter whether he burns the enemy or not.
Fierce fires will quickly consume the oxygen in the bunker and carry toxic combustion gases, quickly degrading the enemy's combat effectiveness.
But the embarrassing thing is that the fire-breathing soldiers are so bulky and can easily become targets when rushing forward, and the casualty rate is self-evident.
However, the patented napalm has essentially changed the fate of the Flamethrowers!
