Following the subjective abandonment of Ningji Okamura and the top leaders of the North China Front Army, the fate of the more than 5,000 remnants of Linfen and the 69th Division was finally determined.
After half a day of preparation, at 2 pm that day, Liu Zhanshen issued an order for a general attack, and the fifth, sixth, and seventh field divisions simultaneously launched the final attack on Linfen City from the east and west.
The first to appear were the 24 strong fives of the attack aircraft regiment of the Red Air Force and the 12 b17s of the first bomber regiment. Napalm bombs and incendiary bombs slammed onto the ground like hailstones, and the 50-kg and 100-kg blasts rained down on the ground, turning the Japanese army's position under Linfen city into a hell. The Japanese and puppet troops on the battlefield turned into human-shaped torches one after another, and while tossing in the sea of ??flames, they let out piercing screams.
Those fortifications were either directly hit by dense bombs and turned into piles of broken bricks and broken tiles, or they were roasted by hot flames into a red stove, and even the Japanese and puppet soldiers inside turned into slag and floating debris. Fragrant barbecue.
The bombing lasted for half an hour. After the plane returned, the artillery took over their positions. Hundreds of artillery from the artillery regiments directly under the three divisions and the artillery battalions of the infantry regiments roared in unison, dyeing most of the sky red. .
The shells of the 130mm cannon and the 152mm howitzer, which weigh nearly a hundred catties, hit a large pit with a depth of more than one meter and a radius of about 5 meters. The rounds directly blew up the Japanese positions into the surface of the moon.
? ? ? The 85mm cannons, which are light in weight and easy to move, were used as sniper rifles and pushed to a position less than 1.5 kilometers away from the Japanese positions for direct bombardment. Those semi-permanent bunkers built with reinforced concrete, In front of the 85mm cannonballs, the fortifications were not much stronger than brick blockhouses, and they turned into burning pillars of fire one by one in the violent explosion. Those simple fortifications on the top of the city can't even withstand a single shell. The Type 99 light machine gun and the Type 92 heavy machine gun erected on it, together with the members of the machine gun team, were all blown into parts by high-explosive grenades.
With the joint efforts of the air force and artillery, an hour later, the positions outside the city that the Japanese army had worked so hard to build were completely turned into a waste area. The two Japanese brigades and most of the thousands of puppet troops on the position were blown to pieces. Those who survived were squatting in the trenches shivering, not daring to show their heads, just like the soldiers of the national army who guarded Linfen five years ago.
?The muzzle of the gun was raised, and the target was transferred to the city wall of Linfen. Linfen, an ancient county town built in the Sui Dynasty, suffered the second artillery attack since the Anti-Japanese War. It's just that the scale this time is more than ten times larger than the last time. Dense shells hit the city wall paved with green bricks round after round. The ancient city wall with a history of nearly a thousand years trembled under the fierce bombardment. Large groups of broken bricks and stones wrapped in mud fell rustlingly. There was smoke and dust all around.
? ? ? Such a scene caused the facial muscles of Liu Zhanshen, Wang Shusheng, and Li Da, who were holding binoculars to observe the battle situation only two kilometers away from the front line, to tremble violently. They were excited: how many years have they been passive? The Eighth Route Army, which was bombed, could finally ravage its opponents with bombers and shells.
After being hit by nearly 500 rounds of large-caliber shells, the west wall finally couldn't withstand the violent bombardment, and collapsed with a loud noise, leaving a huge gap tens of meters wide. The Japanese and puppet soldiers guarding this section of the city wall fell together with the gravel, their limbs were broken and their bones were broken, and then they were turned into flesh by the falling gravel. ?
? ? ? Seeing this situation, other soldiers of the Japanese and puppet soldiers were shocked, especially those puppet soldiers. They dropped their weapons. So they turned around and fled back. But before they ran a few steps, those Japanese military police rushed over with a murderous look, and without any nonsense, they started to fight with the 38-style, and fired a row of bullets. Immediately, more than a dozen deserters fell into a pool of blood. The others were shocked when they saw it, and immediately turned around and ran towards the city wall, but they all scolded the little devil's ancestors in their hearts.
The Eighth Route Army shouted quickly, and before the dust from the collapse of the city wall fell, a dozen Type 62 tanks and dozens of Type 63 armored vehicles rushed towards the gap with a regiment of infantry.
Those puppet soldiers who had just returned to the city wall were frightened out of their wits when they saw these giant steel beasts. I don't know who shouted: 'Grandpa Balu, don't fight, I surrender! ' Then a dozen or so puppet soldiers threw away their weapons, raised their hands and ran towards the Eighth Route Army tanks outside the gap.
However, as soon as we reached the gap, all the Japanese military police who followed were brought down. Now the other soldiers of the puppet army quit. Turning around, they looked at the fire towards their master, and the surroundingWhen the Japanese soldiers saw that these lackeys dared to rebel, they immediately raised their guns and shot. The puppet army also immediately fought back.
Their actions immediately caused a chain reaction, and the puppet troops on and around the city wall also began to attack the Japanese troops around them. At the beginning, the number of puppet troops in the uprising was still very small. There were only a few squads and platoons, but with the sound of gunfire, more and more puppet troops joined in. In a blink of an eye, all the puppet troops guarding the east wall rebelled against the devils.
Some of the smarter ones immediately ran out along the gap, took off the military caps on top of their heads, and waved them vigorously, signaling Grandpa Balu to enter the city quickly.
After discovering this situation, the occupants of those tanks and armored vehicles naturally would not miss this opportunity. The driver slammed the floor and rushed towards the gap.
? ? ? As soon as they reached the gap, the vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns and 23mm machine guns on those steel beasts fired at the same time, smashing the Japanese troops who were fighting with the puppet troops to pieces.
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The two Type 92 heavy machine guns on the city walls on both sides of the gap suddenly roared, and the two fire snakes swiftly rushed down the city wall. Countless bullet holes.
The Japanese machine gunner squeezed the trigger tightly, and shouted with a ferocious expression: "You bloody Japanese, you dare to betray the Imperial Japanese Army. Then you all die!"
Maybe it was the feeling of the madness of these devils. Several Type 62 tanks raised their gun barrels one after another, aiming their black muzzles at the Type 92 machine guns on the city wall. With a burst of roar, the muzzle flare flashed, and several shells were fired rapidly, hitting the target precisely. On the positions of the two machine guns, the sound of continuous firing stopped abruptly, and the two machine guns, together with the members of the machine gun team, were all blown into parts.
When the puppet soldiers saw that the Eighth Route Army tanks stood up for themselves, they were immediately moved. They took up weapons and led the tanks and the Eighth Route Army soldiers behind them into the city.
In this way, Linfen City was completely exposed to the strong man of the Central Route Army like a stripped girl. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
