In less than 3 minutes, more than half of the Gaulish soldiers were killed or wounded. It can be said that the damage was heavy, which made many Gallic soldiers want to retreat. "Captain Chatham, we can't stand it anymore!"
"The enemy's artillery fire is too fierce and it is meaningless. We should surrender as soon as possible and let our fleet teach these barbaric Chinese people a lesson!"
Chatham's face was dark. He knew that surrendering to save his life was the most important thing at the moment. He glanced around and said, "Damn it, how can we surrender without a white cloth!"
A soldier whose forearm was wounded by shrapnel reminded, "Captain Chatham, that flag is fine."
Chatham picked up the Gallic flag in front of him and tore it open, only to find that there was no flagpole. He picked up a baguette nearly 1 meter long.
"CeSSeZ-le-feU! The Chinese soldiers on the opposite side please cease fire and we surrender!" A white flag tied to a piece of bread slowly unfurled a sandbag.
In the King Tiger tank, the commander observed this action through the periscope, "Cease fire first. The Gaulish soldiers seem to have surrendered. Let's see if they are cheating!"
"Hey, don't shoot! We surrender!" A dozen Gaulish soldiers actually ceased fire when they saw the other side.
He also dropped his rifle and walked out tremblingly with his hands above his head to show his sincerity.
Several SdkfZ251 half-track personnel carriers rushed out from the corner at the end of the intersection.
"Soldiers, follow me!" A second lieutenant carried an assault rifle and led four squads of soldiers to charge, and naturally accepted the surrender of the Gaulish soldiers.
At the same time, Lu Xiaojia's armored forces also encountered strong resistance from Sam and John in the Zhoujiazui and Jingpukou Deng areas of Shanghai.
"Boom!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
John's only remaining QF 2.95-inch mountain cannon is also targeting the King Tiger's tilted shells.
Of course, this kind of attack is a weak and powerful open back for the King Tiger tank with 150 mm sloped armor.
"Major Jess, we can't destroy those two tanks..." The soldier, who was shouting hoarsely, was blown three or four meters into the air before he could finish his words.
"Damn it, these are the tanks from that country, aiding the Chinese people!" These two tanks could not be destroyed at all, and they kept stopping in place to attack them.
This made the always arrogant Jace and many soldiers completely despair, unable to penetrate at all.
All the light and heavy machine guns and artillery equipped by the grenade battalion were destroyed by the two tanks. They were supposed to be invincible, but now they have no resistance.
"Major Jess, it looks like Sam's country has raised a white flag. Let's surrender as soon as possible!"
"What?" Jess quickly raised the telescope and looked at Jingpukou. When he looked at the few small white flags fluttering in the wind, he yelled angrily: "Damn it, didn't these Sam people promise to resist to the end?"
"No matter, Major, let the Gauls continue to resist. For now, we surrender to save our lives!" A soldier had already begun to take off his white shirt.
"Major, there is news from the rear that the Gauls surrendered ten minutes ago!"
"Shet, take the white flag quickly, we surrender, or we will all die!" Jace issued the order quickly.
Many John soldiers secretly cursed these damn Gauls for not having the backbone of soldiers.
What he said at that time was firmer than steel, and the speed of surrender was faster than a landslide.
In this way, white flags were flying over the public and Gallic concessions.
…
Baoshan Wusong Wharf.
Lu Xiaojia stood on the island of the heavily patrolled ship "Chaofeng". At a height of 36 meters, holding a telescope, he could observe the situation in the concession from a high position. "These Western powers bully the weak and fear the strong. If you want to gain their respect, you have to beat them." They’ll have to look for teeth all over the place.”
"Commander, what should we do if these guys really send a fleet?" He Huaigang was a little worried. After all, the navy of Sam and John is really not weak, much more powerful than the Fuso Navy.
"It doesn't matter, they don't have so much time to deal with us now. Even if they really send out a fleet to attack us, I can still make it impossible for them to come back."
The Kingdom of Gaul is a strong army, but the navy of Sam and John is very strong.
However, in the Asian region, there are only a few destroyers and cruisers, and their strength is weak.
What's more, Lu Xiaojia didn't offend them too much. Right now, he was mainly wary of Fusang Kingdom.
With the East China Sea Fleet here, as many warships as the Fuso Combined Fleet comes, they will be sunk!
Don't underestimate the East China Sea Fleet. Although its total tonnage is not comparable to the Fuso Combined Fleet, its two aircraft carriers are equipped with 56 new carrier-based aircraft.
Especially during this period, because the aviation industry technology was still in development, the battleships of these powerful countries had not yet been modified, and their anti-aircraft firepower was very weak.
Torpedoes and dive bombers can safely and boldly drop bombs and torpedoes on them.
"Report to the commander that our department has taken back Gaul, Fuso, and the public concession. In this battle, our department killed hundreds of enemy troops and captured nearly 2,000 people. We seized Lee-Enfield rifles, M1903 Springfield rifles, Lewis light machine guns, and Bo Ronning M1917 heavy machine gun...and thousands of other weapons." Lin Yi boarded the ship to report the battle report.
There are a bunch of more foreign weapons, and the performance of these weapons is actually pretty good for this era.
However, Lu Xiaojia can't look down on it now. The improved Liu-style semi-automatic rifle has been put into production.
Now all precision shooters in the combat forces have been fully refitted. Liu-style semi-automatic rifles with ZF-42 4x scopes, and the excess inventory has even begun to be issued to reserve forces in small quantities for use.
As for the performance, it is actually similar to Sam's M1C Garand sniper rifle, and the accuracy is even better. The hit rate within the 580-meter range is very high.
It uses a 15-round magazine and the gun belt weighs 4.5 kilograms. Lu Xiaojia even believed that the M1 Garand was a plagiarized Liu-style semi-automatic rifle.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Xiaojia decided to package these weapons for sale, "Mr. Lin, please have me temporarily store these various captured firearms in warehouse No. 13 at Beizhan Pier."
Warehouse No. 13 at Beizhan Wharf is a place dedicated to storing these old-fashioned weapons. There will be people responsible for smuggling these weapons to Cameroon, Morocco, Gambia, Guyana, Annan, Shan State, Khmer, Tunisia... and other regions.
The brutal rule of colonists such as John, Gaul, and Sam made the oppressed people in these areas yearn for freedom and independence.
Lu Xiaojia naturally wanted to help them and give them more weapons for them to toss around with, and the natives in these areas would also consciously offer diamonds, jade... and other wealth in exchange for these weapons.
At the same time, all foreign armed forces in Hangcheng Bay, Yu Province, were forcibly disarmed under the threat of tanks from the 3rd Armored Regiment.
The concessions of various countries in Hangcheng Bay are very small, and the troops stationed in each country are at platoon level.
For these foreigners, Lu Xiaojia is still the same as before, using militarized personnel to mine, and those who have committed crimes in China will be punished according to the rules and regulations.
Ordinary foreigners like doctors, businessmen, Red Cross... were not too embarrassed.
After all, Lu Xiaojia would not be closed-door to the country, and communication with the world was very necessary.
The Fusang Concession in Hangcheng Bay was also demolished. More than 3,000 Fusang residents, including local soldiers, were all violently driven into the square by the soldiers.
"Please rest assured, Fuso residents, we will repatriate you to your country. Now please line up in an orderly manner and wait for the bus in batches." An officer stood on a high place, holding a loudspeaker, and said with a kind face.
The Fuso people in the square were overjoyed when they heard this. In recent years, they have used violent means to make a fortune in China, and many of them have been stained with the blood of Chinese people.
Unexpectedly, they could return home safely now. They also cooperated very well with the work and consciously boarded the Busin NAG900 modified heavy-duty truck modified for them.
…
The driver opened the valve in the cab, and 12 modified heavy trucks drove to the outskirts of Hangcheng Bay.
At the end of the trip, 300 soldiers wearing MIXA1 chemical protective suits, M38 gas masks, and carrying assault rifles had been waiting for a long time.
