"Commander, the enemy tanks are coming up."
The observer at high altitude saw the tank company that was bypassing the side at a glance, and immediately reported to the regiment commander.
"Have all the tanks been released? It seems that the little devil can't hold it anymore. We are preparing to fight for the last time. Don't rush to attack the tanks. Move closer and don't let them escape."
"Didn't the military factory develop a new artillery shell? Take it out and try it."
The artillery regiment commander greeted.
Members of the artillery team heard this and immediately removed several special wooden boxes from a truck.
Open the wooden box, which contains special cannonballs.
These cannonballs are twice as long as regular cannonballs.
The single head is also round and engraved with crack patterns, which looks weird.
"Target enemy infantry, fire two salvos, let go!"
Whoosh whoosh!
Following the orders of the artillery regiment commander, artillery shells hit the positions of the 5th and 6th Divisions one after another.
"Lie down quickly!"
At this time, these Japanese who had not been killed already had sufficient experience in shelling.
Hearing the whistling of artillery shells, he began to look for cover and hide in all directions.
Some of the smarter ones rolled directly into the fields beside the road and hid behind the field ridges.
Although these ridges are inconspicuous, they can also block flying fragments.
Effectively reduce casualties.
However, to their surprise.
The shells that hit this time did not explode into fragments after falling to the ground like the previous shells.
Rely on fragmentation to kill.
These shells exploded in the air.
Half of the warhead and body exploded into pieces in the air.
Because the warhead and body have been engraved with dark patterns in advance.
When these warheads explode, the fragments will become more and more even.
It is also more lethal.
The most terrible thing is that these warheads are densely packed with iron nails.
Every iron nail was stained with rust, and some were specially soaked in gold juice.
Contains various pathogenic bacteria.
This kind of nail does not need to hit a person's vital part.
Just a scratch is an infection.
With the medical conditions of this era, it ranges from amputation of flesh and limbs to death from direct infection.
Like iron rain, these nails fell densely toward the Japanese troops below.
"Baga? What is this?"
However, they haven't figured it out yet.
Those falling nails nailed the Japanese soldiers exposed in the wilderness to the ground.
Each exposed Japanese soldier had several nails hammered into his body.
Many injuries may not be fatal, but the severe pain is not fake.
Many Japanese soldiers were in so much pain that they rolled on the ground.
Hisao Tani was lucky. When he saw something was wrong, he got under the car and escaped the attack.
But he escaped, and his soldiers were not so lucky.
A large number of soldiers were hit by bullets falling from the sky.
Lying on the ground wailing.
Hisao Tani was stunned at this time. They had received more blows today than they had in the past few years combined.
First, it was shelled by the Communist army.
Then, when he fought back, he discovered that the Communist troops were beyond their attack range.
When did the Communist artillery actually suppress them?
Now it's this weird shell again.
The most devastating thing is that until now, they have not seen the face of the communist army.
This gap is really disappointing.
"We can't continue. If we continue, everyone will have to answer here."
"Retreat, retreat quickly."
Hisao Tani got into a car to escape.
However, the second round of bombardment arrived.
This time the shells were no longer filled with rusty nails, but with pieces of caltrops.
Each caltrop has four points. No matter how it lands, one of the points is guaranteed to be pointing upward.
These caltrops were scattered all over the ground.
Not only did they cause a lot of damage to the Japanese troops on the ground, but more importantly, these things formed an obstacle area, making it difficult for cars to move.
At this time, Hisao Tani was already panicking and stepped on the accelerator, wanting to drive away from here quickly.
Then the wheel pressed against the caltrops.
boom!
There was a muffled sound and the tire was punctured.
The car lost its balance and went diagonally, off the road and overturned into a ditch.
Hisao Tani bumped into the car door and fainted.
At the same time, the Japanese tank company was still humming toward the Communist artillery position.
Because the Japanese army has always positioned tanks as accompanying and supporting units for infantry.
I have never considered fighting independently.
Therefore, the driving speed of these tanks is not high, only about thirty.
The most terrible thing is that these tanks have been running for a long time before coming.
Many parts have been severely worn.
Plus now we have to charge quickly.
This makes the already overwhelmed tank even worse.
On this road alone, five tanks broke down due to malfunctions.
The remaining 17 tanks hummed and continued to advance towards the target.
"Send them on their way."
The artillery regiment commander lowered his binoculars.
One by one, the cannons began to adjust their angles.
Boom, boom!
Although, what is fired against tanks is ordinary artillery shells, not professional armor-piercing shells.
But it is still enough to deal with crispy tanks like Japan.
A direct hit by a shell can directly penetrate the armor cover of the tank and explode inside the tank.
Artillery observers even saw a tank's turret fly straight out.
"Well done, just keep beating these little devils."
Under the call of the artillery observers, the tanks responsible for assaulting the artillery positions were called out one by one.
All were destroyed by artillery.
One of them even hit an ammunition rack and exploded.
The flames shot straight into the sky.
"Commander, all the enemy tanks have been killed."
the artillery observer said excitedly.
"Continue to look for the enemy and be sure to annihilate them all. In addition, notify the infantry and ask them to come up and clean the battlefield."
"By the way, bring more magnets so you can recycle the caltrops."
The artillery regiment commander warned.
The caltrops formed a complete blockade.
All Japanese vehicles were trapped.
But similarly, no one else can get in.
Someone must be sent to remove the obstacles first.
After a while, trucks drove up, full of well-armed soldiers.
Each of these soldiers carried a Type 100 submachine gun, a backpack slung across the side, and a long pole in his hand. The top of the pole was a huge magnet.
These are soldiers specifically responsible for clearing obstacles.
Specially responsible for dealing with areas attacked by cluster bombs.
Recycle leftover nails and caltrops.
This thing doesn't distinguish between friend and foe, and it would be bad if one of your own is accidentally injured.
These soldiers who cleared the obstacles were cursing and cursing while cleaning. The artillery fire was very satisfying, but the clearing was as hard as it took.
Wear special protective shoes to prevent accidental injuries.
Many obstacle clearers have always said that artillery should be used to do this job. So what do you mean? Who pollutes will be treated.
