The Japanese began their attack with all their teeth and claws.

Thousands of people had already rushed forward, and all the mortars fired instantly.

Eighteen 50mm mortars. Twelve 80mm mortars.

Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!

Countless shells swallowed up thousands of little devils in the blink of an eye.

Of course, these are just immediate observations. In a real war, even the firing of hundreds of artillery pieces cannot kill thousands of people in an instant.

Because people are afraid, and if they are afraid of death, they will try every means to survive.

The Japs caused nearly a hundred casualties in the first round of shelling, which was actually a large number of casualties.

Looking at everything in front of him, Commander Liu couldn't help but click his tongue. These artillery fires far exceeded what a regiment of the Little Japs could provide.

"This firepower is too strong. Is this New Seventh Army the newly formed German weapon division by the principal? This firepower has already surpassed that of the teaching corps."

Looking at the devastating battle in front of him, Captain Liu couldn't help but said.

The Japanese Major looked at the lost soldiers in front of him and was furious, but he had no other choice but to continue the attack.

The Japanese were able to advance in an orderly manner despite being attacked by machine guns.

This shows that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese is far from comparable to that in the drama.

Among them, many people in Shanghai have taken refuge with the Japs and have become real traitors.

That arrogance is not small, and these traitors will be dealt with soon.

After a fierce battle, the Cantonese army followed suit and beat up the little Japanese.

However, his weapons, equipment and supplies could no longer be maintained.

If it hadn't been like this, we wouldn't have retreated in embarrassment in the morning.

Seeing the other party's embarrassment, Zhao Song sent someone to send a batch of supplies to the Guangdong Army.

The Cantonese army marched thousands of miles north to resist the Japanese, although the main force was defeated within a few days.

But there is a saying that has been circulating in Shanghai that the Guangdong army will not be destroyed and the Sichuan army will not come out.

The Guangdong army and the principal do have some grudges.

But the Cantonese army only said one sentence in the face of the great right and wrong: "The anti-Japanese territory does not distinguish between north and south, and people do not distinguish between old and young. We Guangdong people will be the first to go."

In the continuous Shanghai-Hai Battle, the Cantonese army's defense line has always been impenetrable.

All four Japanese general attacks were repelled by the Cantonese army.

Then there were four more troop additions and four more coaching changes. The Japanese even transferred two of the only three aircraft carriers at the time to Shanghai for coordinated operations.

However, even if the Japanese army, land and sea were mobilized and fought for more than a month, they still could not break through the first line of defense of the Guangdong army.

However, the Guangdong army suffered daily casualties, coupled with the government's unwelcome attitude, there was a shortage of soldiers and supplies.

Even so, the Guangdong army fought fiercely on the front line and refused to retreat.

As early as five years ago, the Guangdong army had already had a bloody battle with the Japanese.

The Cantonese troops in front of me were the newly formed Cantonese troops that came to support the Anti-Japanese War.

That battle dates back to 1932!

In this battle, the Cantonese army was almost wiped out.

How tragic is it? At that time, a certain route army of the Guangdong Army (I can't say which army) had a sword team.

This team of broadswords was originally useless.

After all, the Shanghai-Hai Battle was the most modern war fought between the two sides at that time. Both sides used aircraft, heavy artillery, armored vehicles, and aircraft carriers.

But in the end, the casualties were too great, and there was no other way. The principal's reinforcements were delayed.

The total strength of the Japs is close to 100,000, while the Cantonese army has less than 50,000.

So in this case, the Machete team also has to go up.

This created a sad and tragic scene in the Battle of Shanghai at that time.

Japanese planes were flying in the sky, armored vehicles were rampaging in the streets, and warships parked on the coastline would fire shells from time to time.

In the end, the Cantonese soldiers on our side had no choice but to go up with their swords and fight the Japanese in hand-to-hand combat.

As long as there is an extra round of bullets, you will not bring it to wield the machete.

One can imagine how urgent it was, and the principal also took the opportunity to weaken his opponent's strength.

During the entire period of the Anti-Japanese War, the Guangdong army sent nearly 900,000 troops, but less than 3,000 returned. White silk ribbons were hung on every household in Guangdong.

There is no army without Sichuan, and there is no country without Guangdong!

The Cantonese army in front of us is even worse than the Cantonese army in 1932, because the government has no background and no one to support it.

The only thing that can compare is that they are better equipped than the Sichuan Army.

Therefore, there is currently very little material and equipment available.

The supplies shipped from Guangdong Province are only a drop in the bucket, and when you go to the national government to collect supplies, you have to face various deductions and difficulties.

The current embarrassment is even more serious, and they can only take the risk of sending soldiers out of the trenches into the battlefield to collect the weapons and equipment of the Japs.

Without bullets and firearms of the wrong caliber, it is difficult to effectively maintain combat effectiveness.

Liu Baichuan sighed and looked at the pitiful bullets in the hands of the soldiers.

Many soldiers were rubbing their bayonets and swords, ready to shoot the bullets before engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

Zhao Song sent someone to deliver a batch of 7.92mm bullets.

For Liu Baichuan, that was a life-saving grace.

Twenty boxes of 7.92mm bullets, one box of 900 rounds of ammunition, a total of 18,000 rounds of ammunition.

In addition, ten boxes of grenades were delivered, with wooden-handled grenades and wine crisscrossed inside.

The ten on the left and the ten on the right are fixed in the card slot.

There's no way it's in bulk. What if it explodes?

These materials are very precious to the Guangdong army.

In addition, two improved Czech-style light machine guns ZQ35 light machine guns were also sent.

Liu Baichuan, who pried open the ammunition box, looked at his brothers and said boldly.

"Two boxes of bullets, save some and try to kill a little devil with one shot."

He took out two boxes of bullet plugs from the ammunition box and gave them to the soldier as a reminder.

"Is Tuanzuo getting rich? Just shoot two boxes of bullets at once."

The soldier exclaimed, after all, he has been poor for too long, and there are not many such luxurious days.

Because when I go to the battlefield, I only get a box of bullets.

One box of ammunition is twenty-five rounds, and two boxes of ammunition is fifty rounds.

This was fifty rounds of ammunition all at once, which surprised the soldiers.

After all, there are not many times when you can be so arrogant.

The reason why I dare to issue so many bullets at once.

That's because there are now less than three hundred people alive, and they are all veterans.

Give veteran Youzi fifty rounds of bullets, and the results are good.

So they were given fifty rounds of ammunition.

As for grenades, there are only a hundred. Even if some are collected, there will be less than three hundred grenades left.

After all, this one is still a bit stock.

It is impossible to spread your hands and have nothing.

"I'll remember it all. The brothers from the New Seventh Army saved it for us from their teeth. If you gangsters let me waste it, I'll give it to you!"

Liu Baichuan looked at the soldiers distributing bullets and warned them seriously.

In their opinion, eighteen thousand rounds of ammunition was a huge sum of money.

This time Zhao Song and others came with eighty boxes of bullets. Although they supported them with twenty boxes, there were still fifty boxes of bullets left.

Their supplies will arrive in the evening.

They all came out fully armed.
