Chapter 029 Recapture the city gate

Facts have proved that Hu Yizhou has the halo of the protagonist! After all, it is a time-travelling, there must be some benefits, right?

A 7.92mm pointed bullet flew out of the muzzle of Ma Sihuan's gun. After flying 405 meters, it did not hit the small shell that Hu Yizhou was expecting. Because the little Jaap holding the small shell actually hit Hu Yizhou just before he fired.

He turned around in an instant.

As a result, the bullet directly passed over the space vacated by the little devil, penetrated into the wooden box at the back, and hit the 70mm 92 Infantry Artillery shell in the wooden box.

The rest is the normal rhythm!

With a bang, the artillery shell was detonated, and then the bomb next to it was also detonated. In an instant, the entire city gate was occupied by the sound of fire and nuclear explosions! Looking from a distance, a large group of smoke-laden

Fire sprayed out from both sides of the city gate hole, mixed with some human bodies or parts from machine guns and artillery.

If the explosive stuffed in the Japanese cannonballs was TNT, it would not be so easy to cause an explosion. But the explosive stuffed in the Japanese cannonballs was picric acid!

What is picric acid? Its scientific name is trinitrophenol. It was used as a yellow dye after it was first invented. It was not until a hundred years later that a boy in a dye shop in France used a hammer to hammer an iron bucket of damp picric acid.

There was an explosion, and people realized that this thing was actually explosive!

Of course, at that time, this thing was covered up as a black technology and no one was allowed to know about it!

Unfortunately, since 1887, when the Japanese Major Tomioka Sadayasu visited the French picric acid production line, he quietly grabbed a handful and put it down, hiding a little under his fingernails and taking it home, the little Japanese have had picric acid.

, and has been using it and its derivatives as explosives for bombs.

During the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese artillery shells contained picric acid! This kind of artillery shells are extremely sensitive and can explode when rubbed against cables. They can also burn in water, and the yellow smoke they produce is extremely poisonous...

Picric acid itself is not very stable, especially when it comes into contact with metals other than lead, it will produce metal salts, which makes it even more unstable. It is said that the little devil's solution is to coat the inside of the shell with a layer of paraffin.

Therefore, many years later, when people found buried artillery shells left by the Japanese, they were always very careful to handle them. If they could not move them, they would not move them. If they could detonate them, they would detonate them on the spot!

Compared with the Japanese artillery shells, the German long handles are much safer! It is said that in a mountainous area of ​​Rabbit Country, someone took a grenade picked up from nowhere and smashed walnuts that had been there for many years...

In front of the street, the explosion caused by Hu Yizhou's shot finally woke people up from their surprise! Just as one rumor is quelled by another rumor, the way to end people's shock is another shock.

In fact, it only took a few seconds from the time when the battlefield became quiet to when Hu Yizhou fired the gun and detonated the artillery shell.

"What the hell are you doing standing around here? Go back and help me retake the city gate!" Captain Yi roared and ran towards the city gate first.

"Recapture the city gate! Grab guns and build barricades! Reinforce each firepower point! Dig trenches on the streets! Hurry!" the eighth battalion commander's roar was particularly loud.

"Let's go over too, rows two and three, and you go to the city gate!" Li Dacheng asked two platoons with less than thirty men under his command to set up defenses on the city gate tower.

"Sir, what should we do?" Fang Hao asked Hu Yizhou.

"Wait! The next step will either be a fierce battle, or we can take a few days of short rest!" Hu Yizhou looked at the sky and said to Fang Hao.

"Monkey, go ask the battalion commander if he has anything else to explain to our artillery team?" After Hu Yizhou finished speaking, he aimed the mortar at the city gate hole.

"Yes!" the monkey agreed and ran away.

While Hu Yizhou was talking, a company of more than twenty "fleeing" soldiers had already entered Dongmen Street.

They held their guns and sprinted towards the city gate as fast as possible. However, there were four or five soldiers among them who did not follow them. Instead, they held rifles with bayonets in their hands and stabbed the Japanese corpses on the road one by one!

At this time, let’s not talk about preferential treatment for prisoners of war! Because the Japanese soldiers did not surrender or be captured, they still held weapons even if they fell to the ground, so just hit them with a finishing blow!

This means that bullets are tight, otherwise a headshot is the easiest way.

When the soldiers of the Eighth Battalion were about to rush to the city gate, the Japanese soldiers appeared in front of the city gate again. These Japanese soldiers were the Japanese soldiers from the Third Squadron and the Second Squadron who were digging soil and making sandbags. There were continuous explosions inside just now.

They didn't see it and didn't know what happened, so they were still digging and filling bags step by step.

However, after the artillery shell exploded at the city gate, the surviving squadron leader of the third squadron realized that something was wrong. Without the consent of Kaneda Nagao, he immediately ordered the soldiers to assemble towards the city gate.

When the Japanese soldiers put down their shovel bags and picked up their guns again and arrived at the city gate, they happened to see soldiers from the opposite company rushing towards them.

Close combat!

The soldiers of the first company raised their guns without saying a word and fired a barrage of fire. The Japanese in the city gate cave also fired back without hesitation.

In such a scene, it depends on the reaction speed and stress ability of both parties! The one with the fastest reaction speed will shoot earlier, and the better emergency response ability will shoot accurately! The two sides are less than fifty meters apart, as long as they don't panic

If you don't shake, you can still hit someone.

"Bah bang bang... bang hook..." Hanyang made a pair of 38 big covers.

After a shooting exchange, three or four fell in a row, and seven or eight Japanese felled.

I have to say that veterans have an advantage! Those who have survived to this day are all veterans! They are not afraid of death, have a good attitude, and naturally have good marksmanship! The shortcomings of the little devil's many recruits are exposed. Under tension,

Either I forgot to shoot or my shot was inaccurate.

It's just a pity that these bald veterans were almost all lost in the battle of Songhu! This has to be said to be a kind of sadness...

After the two sides exchanged fire, a company of soldiers quickly arrived behind the new temporary bunker built by the Japanese. This temporary bunker made of two or three layers of sandbags and wooden poles became a shelter for the soldiers.

It was similar on the Japs side. They lay down behind some sandbags that were still left in the city gate cave, and used this to shoot into the city.

The shells that exploded in the city gate cave just now destroyed the sandbag fortifications inside the city gate cave. It would be good to find a few of these devils.

Hu Yizhou put down his telescope and regretfully looked at the battle at the city gate.

Because the city gate hole withstood the power of the shell explosion, it still sticks to its post, but the two city gates have been laid off honorably.

With the existence of the city gate cave, it is impossible to bomb the Japanese inside! However, with the height advantage, the rifle can still be used!
Chapter completed!
