They gathered on the abandoned position of the Fourth Army on the coast, as if they had occupied this place after an extremely arduous battle.
Seeing the cheering soldiers on the aircraft carrier in the distance, Yamamoto Isoroku also had a smile on his face.
He unbuttoned the cuffs and said in a relaxed tone: "It seems the enemy does not intend to fight us on the beach!
This is a very reasonable decision. After all, under the coverage of our naval gunfire, if they want to forcefully defend the beach, they will only bring more casualties to themselves. "
The Japanese Chief of Staff Oda Masawa, who was standing next to him, was also looking at the Japanese flag flying over there.
"Are they going to have a decisive battle with us on the ground?" Oda Masawa said half in doubt and half in certainty.
Yamamoto Isoroku smiled, and then said half-jokingly: "You can't have a decisive battle with us in the sea."
With this said, he straightened his body and said: "Order the troops to build positions, and at the same time send scout troops to conduct reconnaissance of the enemy's inland areas."
"Aren't we going to send a reconnaissance plane?" Oda Masawa asked.
Yamamoto Isoroku smiled and shook his head: "I once heard Okamura Neji mention the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower in a combat report.
They are equipped with a very weird rocket that can lock on our reconnaissance planes and fighter jets. As long as they are bitten by this rocket, there is almost no chance of escape. "
Oda Masawa was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It seems that I need to look through the post-war report of the North China Expeditionary Force again."
While the two were talking, they didn't know that on the ground, Xia Yang was sitting on an armored vehicle, also using binoculars to look at the Japanese troops in the distance who were cheering loudly because they had occupied a defensive position.
The armored vehicle he was riding in was hidden in a forest, wrapped in branches and yellow leaves on a camouflage net, making it difficult to spot without getting closer.
Looking at the flags flying by the Japanese army and the cheering crowd, Xia Yang raised his lips and said softly: "Welcome to China, little devil! I'll give you a meeting gift."
As he said this, he pressed the activation button of the bomb.
At this time, a large number of bombs buried deep in the position exploded after receiving the signal from the remote control.
The entire position was immediately turned upside down by a huge explosion.
Flames and smoke, mixed with terrifying shock waves, were like a tsunami, flooding the entire position.
The Japanese troops who occupied the position were just immersed in the joy of victory. Who would have thought that the enemy would have such a large amount of explosives buried in the position.
Thousands of Japanese soldiers occupying the position were killed or injured in this extremely violent explosion.
Many of the Japanese soldiers were directly blown into pieces, with no bones left. There were also many Japanese soldiers who survived by luck, but their internal organs were damaged by the huge shock wave.
It won¡¯t be long before they die in beds in field hospitals due to extensive damage to their organs.
The Japanese soldiers who landed on the beach were also knocked to the ground by the shock wave.
The shock wave was like a strong wind, even pushing the waves that were constantly hitting the sea back a certain distance.
At this moment, these Japanese soldiers, who had not yet seen the cruelty of the battlefield, had completely seen what real war is.
Such a gift that Xia Yang gave them was not unimportant, it was so heavy that the Japanese army could not accept it.
The violent explosion on the shore happened to be seen by Yamamoto Isoroku on the aircraft carrier.
The smile at the corner of his mouth disappeared immediately, and then he suddenly put down the telescope and looked at the coastline shrouded in gunpowder smoke.
The waves roared, but they could not break the loud noise caused by the explosion.
At this time, the tail sound of the explosion was still echoing in his ears. Yamamoto Isoroku could already imagine how many casualties the Japanese soldiers occupying the position would have to pay under such a violent explosion.
At this moment, the sound of gunfire also came over.
Yamamoto Isoroku and Oda Masazawa turned their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of Tianjin Port in the distance.
During the entire landing operation, gunshots were heard from that direction only. All other landing areas did not encounter any resistance.
"There are enemies in the port!"
Yamamoto Isoroku thought to himself, picked it up and looked at it.He turned around and took a few steps forward, looking in the direction of the port.
There were not only gunshots coming over there, but also vague explosions. It was obvious that the landing Japanese troops and the defensive forces of the Fourth Army were already fighting together.
The Japanese landing craft trying to occupy the port were bombarded from a long distance by more than a dozen huge forts on the pier, using Krupp cannons installed inside them before they even approached the pier.
These cannons customized by Krupp Military Factory are actually quite old. But because of good maintenance, it can still be used.
Hao Shiwen used his telescope to look at the Japanese landing craft on the sea in the distance, which was blown to pieces by the giant cannon, and smiled slightly.
¡°I¡¯m giving you a meeting gift, I hope you will like it.¡±
Hao Shiwen said, walked to the cannon and fired a shell himself.
The shell flew out with a loud noise, and after flying for several kilometers, it hit directly in the center of the Japanese landing craft group.
The large-caliber shell exploded directly in the water, causing waves to rise into the sky and overturn the surrounding Japanese landing craft.
The diesel fuel in the landing craft leaked onto the sea surface, and the gunpowder produced by the explosion ignited the oil.
On the entire sea surface, the ignited diesel fuel and the waves caused by the explosion of artillery shells caused great damage to the Japanese landing craft group.
Many of the soldiers among them huddled under the armor plates, allowing the waves to crash on their heads. I prayed that those shells would not fall on me.
¡°Bombard their turrets!!¡±
The brigade commander of the Japanese third brigade, Bomen Qiyi, saw that their landing force was bombarded by enemy turrets, and immediately ordered.
The Japanese destroyer fleet he belonged to immediately began to aim its artillery at the location of the fort.
Nearly a hundred naval guns of various sizes launched a very violent attack on the turrets on both sides of the pier.
"Boom!"
The sound was like a thunderous explosion, completely covering up the roar of the waves.
After a short flight, the cannonballs were like hammers, hitting the turret hard.
