Guderian looked at him with a stern face and said.
"I think our heavy artillery can only be used for bombardment of city walls. If we want to attack urban areas within the city, we must think carefully."
The Japanese commander said that he was actually very worried that if the city of Harbin was captured and shelling continued, it would very likely result in the death of a large number of Japanese expatriates.
This is somewhat unacceptable to him.
Besides, if it enters the battle stage, the enemy on the opposite side will no longer be able to rely on the city wall to resist.
They have enough confidence to destroy the enemy on the opposite side and break down their defense line in the street fighting.
"no problem."
At this time, Guderian, who was standing next to him, said, "I agree with your plan."
When he said this, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the Japanese officer nodded slightly.
"Okay, II only have these words to say."
As the Japanese officer spoke, he sat down on the ground, but there was no sign of relaxation on his face. Instead, he had a sense of guilt.
¡°Perhaps one of those cannonballs that flew past would accidentally land in the place where his parents lived.
His parents are already very old. If his parents died during this bombardment, he may never be able to forgive himself or the choice he made at this moment.
He was equivalent to indirectly giving the order to shoot his parents.
When he thought of this place, his heart became more complicated.
At this time, Guderian, who was opposite him, said: "Okay, if there are no problems now, we can notify our heavy artillery troops to bombard the enemy's city wall."
"clear!!!"
Hans said on the side with unconcealable excitement in his eyes.
He will not pity the Japanese expatriates. For him, if this order is issued now, it means that they can destroy the enemy's city wall, and at the same time, their troops can quickly attack and hold the enemy on the opposite side. Break through this position.
The Japanese commanders walked out of the headquarters with heavy hearts.
And the moment they walked out of the headquarters, the Japanese heavy artillery bombardment had already begun.
These Japanese heavy artillery units have already aimed their artillery at the area where the city wall is located.
If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the bombardment order had been unable to pass, then they would not have waited until now to pour their heavy artillery fire on the Harbin city wall where the Fourth Army was stationed.
These high-level commanders of the Japanese army stood there, watching the shining shells flying towards the city wall where the enemy was located, and also towards the neighborhoods where Japanese expatriates might be.
Most of these Japanese commanders stood there silently, watching the shells streak across the sky like meteors, as if they were their relatives who might die.
These tracer bullets marked with ballistics will no longer appear after the first round of firing.
The Japanese artillery behind them had already adjusted their shooting range.
As for the previous shells, it was inevitable that some of them landed in the neighborhoods where Japanese expatriates were located.
¡°Two of the shells directly destroyed the houses where Japanese expatriates lived.
Hundreds of Japanese expatriates inside were killed by their own shells.
Xia Yang looked at the blocks destroyed by shells with heavy eyes.
Finally, the Japanese army on the opposite side couldn't stand it any longer, and they finally started to use heavy artillery to bombard them. Even these shells might fall into the area where Japanese expatriates were located.
"The enemy has begun shelling. Can these walls withstand it?"
Qiu Guoping asked at the side .
Xia Yang looked at the exploding shells around the city wall and said, "Only if you can withstand it can there be ghosts."
He knew that it would be almost impossible for such a city wall to withstand the bombardment of Japanese heavy artillery.
Even the strong city walls of Taiyuan City will collapse on a large scale under the heavy artillery bombardment of the Japanese army. What¡¯s more, the city walls of Harbin are now under heavy bombardment by the Japanese army.Under the previous continuous attacks, it was already very vulnerable.
The rain at this moment is still pouring down.
Amid the sound of Japanese shelling and the patter of rain, the Fourth Army and the people in Harbin welcomed the dawn.
The Japanese army fought all night without achieving any effective results, but their shelling at dawn began to show its effect.
The first is where the South City Gate is located. The two city walls here began to collapse under the intensive bombardment of Japanese heavy artillery.
The soldiers who saw this scene also began to repair the city walls amidst the commander's shouts.
The heavy artillery units of the Fourth Army in the city also began to fight back against the Japanese troops outside the city at this time.
They tried their best to destroy the positions of the Japanese heavy artillery.
This time 75z*w z*.com Zhang Si. At this moment, the Japanese artillerymen already had experience in fighting the artillery units of the Fourth Army.
They will not concentrate their artillery positions in a certain area to conduct concentrated bombing on the enemy's city walls.
Instead, he will disperse his artillery as much as possible.
Many Japanese artillery pieces would immediately move to the next firing position after firing a shell.
For these Japanese soldiers, they can deploy their artillery quickly no matter where they are in such a vast plain area.
Of course, there are also some Japanese artillery units that move relatively slowly. They often plan to fire a few more shells, but before they finish firing, the retaliatory fire from the Fourth Army has already arrived.
Amidst the loud rumbling noise, these Japanese artillery and their artillery would have been blown into pieces.
There were also a large number of Japanese soldiers who were blown into the sky during the fierce counterattack of the Fourth Army.
As for the Japanese infantry, they also received orders at this moment to seize all time to rest and be ready to attack at any time.
This kind of shelling by the Japanese army lasted for a long time, until it was dark and the rain gradually stopped.
At this moment, the city walls around Harbin are already riddled with holes and can no longer play their defensive role.
But on the city wall, some soldiers can still be seen holding on. They want to continue to resist the attacks of the Japanese troops on the opposite side until the Japanese troops on the opposite side are repelled by them.
