Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Japanese artillery bombardment lasted for more than two hours, and their artillery fire retaliation also lasted for more than two hours.

    During this period, both sides' troops lost a large number of artillery shells.

    It seemed as if all the cannonballs were going to be poured out in one day.

    Nearly all the city walls around Harbin were destroyed.

    Many of the cannonballs here inevitably fell into the city.

    ¡°The Japanese expatriate residential areas closest to the city wall had the most shells falling into them and suffered the greatest casualties.

    The Japanese army can no longer take care of this. They can't let the display continue to develop like this. If they don't break the city wall in front of them, it will be impossible for them to break through Harbin City.

    The exchange of blows between the two sides lasted for two hours before it slowly stopped.

    At this moment, most of Harbin's city walls have been destroyed, and many places have even become ruins. Infantry can also climb directly along the collapsed walls.

    Most of the soldiers of the Fourth Army were hiding on the back of the city wall, or in the hollows further back.

    After the Japanese shelling gradually ended, they immediately entered the defensive position ahead.

    The soldiers of the Fourth Army were also stunned for a moment when they saw the city wall in front of them.

    At this time, it was not only the city wall that was bombarded, but also the Japanese expatriate residential area close to the city wall.

    "These little devils don't even spare their own people.  "

    One soldier took off his saliva and said.

    The soldier on the side patted him on the shoulder and said, "How can I say they are worse than animals?"

    After saying that, they entered the defensive position.

    They are said to be defensive positions, but they are actually city walls that have been blown down. At this moment, these city walls have become ruins.

    They used the collapsed city wall bricks to build machine gun fire points on top of such ruins.

    As for the city gate tower that used to be Xia Yang's headquarters, it has now been completely destroyed.

    As a key target of bombardment, the Japanese army's previous flat-fire cannons had already caused considerable damage to the city gate building, but because the caliber of the flat-fire cannons was too small, they could not cause much damage to this building.

    But the subsequent bombardments were all from Japanese large-caliber heavy artillery. Under the bombardment of such heavy artillery, their gate tower also turned into rubble.

    Xia Yang stood on the extremely damaged city wall, watching the Japanese soldiers in the distance approaching in the smoke.

    Because the Japanese army on the opposite side began to use large-caliber artillery to bombard them, it became very dangerous for them to continue to use napalm bombs on their own positions.

    The Japanese artillerymen on the opposite side are not vegetarians. They will carry out large-scale bombing on their positions under the guidance of the forward scouts.

    ¡°As long as another artillery shell lands on the location of their napalm bombs, it will detonate all the napalm bombs around them.

    Such losses are unbearable for them. If the Japanese army on the opposite side really does it, then they don't need to charge too fiercely. The losses on the Fourth Army's own side may have caused the collapse of the defense line.

    Now they can only use conventional weapons, deployed on the collapsed city walls.

    The Japanese armored forces and their modified trucks once again launched a charge against the Fourth Army.

    Unlike before, this time the Japanese troops became more dispersed and not as dense as before.

    The previous charge caused them to suffer very heavy losses. Now their troops are no longer as sufficient as before. If they continue to charge as intensively as before, more Japanese soldiers will be killed and injured.

    Guderian was just behind the Japanese army. He looked at the Japanese soldiers who had completed their assembly not far away and set off as a reserve team. He knew that no matter what this time, their offensive would not be like before.  Pushed forward.

    Thinking of this place, he looked at Hans aside and said: "Anyway, we have finally destroyed the enemy's strongest defense. It should be much easier when the street battles follow."

    Hans there still seemed a little dissatisfied. He said to Guderian next to him: "In my opinion, these stupid Japanese should have given the order for the shelling long ago.

      If you are just worried about the casualties of ordinary people, then they should go home to farm and be farmers instead of directing battles on the battlefield.  "

    As he spoke, he looked at the Japanese commander aside, with disdain in his eyes.

    Guderian, who was standing next to him, said: "You should think this way, if your wife and lovely daughter were also in this city, would you be able to give the order for bombing?

    You most likely cannot issue such an order because you don¡¯t know which shell will fly out and kill your wife and children.

    Even if you win the final victory, you may live with guilt for the rest of your life.  "

    Hearing these words, Hans said nothing more and just shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

    "By the way, how is our offensive in the direction of the train station?"

    Guderian asked at this moment.

    This time 75z*wz*.com* Zhang Si.  Hans, who was standing next to him, said: "The progress there is not very great, but the artillery fire has been concentrated. I believe things will change soon."

    "Okay, I understand. Let's step up the offensive on the four walls and let the enemy focus as much as possible on the four walls."

    Guderian said.

    While they were talking, the Japanese attacking troops in front were less than a hundred meters away from the city wall of Harbin.

    But what makes the Japanese soldiers strange is that the enemy on the opposite side seems to be much quieter than before. They have advanced to a range of 100 meters, and they have not yet suffered any form of attack.

    The Japanese commander, hiding in the armored vehicle, would pick up his binoculars from time to time and look at the enemy positions ahead.

    In the shrouded smoke screen, he could not clearly see the defensive layout of the four armies over there.

    Not only him, but other Japanese commanders were also unable to see clearly.

    Zhida z.com Zhixiao.  However, the Japanese commander could be 100% sure that the group of enemies on the opposite side must be waiting for them to approach the front position, and then fire at them wildly at the most appropriate time.

    Sure enough, just when the thought passed through his mind, a signal flare flew into the air at this moment
