The smoke filled the air, and the Japanese armored vehicles moved forward unscrupulously. It knocked open the two crossbars in front of them. Those two crossbars were originally facilities used by the Chinese army to prevent civilians from approaching when they were fortified.
It climbed over a pile of rubble caused by the explosion, and its tank gun, which was not very crudely mounted, followed its movements upwards and downwards, and finally pointed forward, and by this time it had reached the edge of Nanjing City. On the street, there is a vast plain ahead.
At this time, as a spectator, Shang Zhen became nervous as if he was about to blow up a tank.
He seemed to be immersed in the situation and began to think about how to kill this tank.
And the only way he could think of was to blow it up with cluster grenades.
However, as a veteran, he knew that it was not easy to blow up a tank.
Because the various arms of the Japanese army cooperate well, and the tanks will be followed by infantry, it does not mean that the Chinese soldiers will be able to rush to the tank just because they rush forward at the risk of their own lives.
Just when Shang Zhen thought of this, the gun in front rang out again. In the telescope, Shang Zhen even saw a stream of sparks caused by the bullet hitting the Japanese tank.
It's just that this kind of fighting method is of little use except to attract the firepower of Japanese tanks and interfere with the Japanese troops inside.
As a weak party, it interferes with the strong party at the cost of life. To be honest, this is an act that outweighs the gains and losses, but the weak party has to do this.
And what happened next was exactly the same. Shang Zhen saw the turret of the Japanese tank rotating all the way, and the muzzle was pointing to his side and in front.
After a moment, there was a "bang", and Shang Zhen saw a cloud of gunpowder smoke coming out of the tank's muzzle, and then the gunfire that was harassing the Japanese tank was silenced.
One side is just a ten centimeter thick steel plate, while the other side can only hide in a masonry structure bunker.
On the one hand, there is a tank gun with a caliber that Shang Zhen can't figure out but it is definitely not too thick. On the other hand, it can only be light weapons such as machine guns and rifles.
The result of the collision between the two sides is self-evident, and this is the power of industry.
As a digression, what drives human technological civilization? Is it the growing material needs of mankind, or is it war?
The Japanese tanks were approaching again, and Shang Zhen could already see them clearly without a telescope.
The infantry behind the Japanese tank did not follow up. Obviously, the Chinese defenders still did not give up the action of blocking the blasted hole. The defenders near the city wall were still stubbornly blocking the Japanese infantry from following up.
And this Japanese tank had already rushed in from the Guanghua Gate for more than a hundred meters. In the process, it fired a total of six rounds, and wherever it hit, the walls collapsed and the house collapsed.
The only thing that makes Shang Zhen thankful is that the Japanese tank guns can penetrate and blow up the walls of houses, but they still have no way to deal with the Chinese defenders on the walls on both sides.
The city wall was too thick. The continuous bombardment of heavy artillery from Japanese aircraft caused the wall at Guanghua Gate to collapse. However, the tanks and artillery tried to hit the Chinese officers and soldiers on the wall, but they were too thin after all.
However, blowing up this Japanese tank is also an urgent matter.
With this Japanese tank that had just rushed into the city as an "inside response", it was easier for the Japanese infantry to rush in through the collapsed gap.
But how to blow up this Japanese tank? Shang Zhen did not see any of his own officers and soldiers rushing out.
Could it be that, as He Xiangcai and others said, more than a dozen Chinese soldiers lined up in a column and rushed upward despite the machine gun fire of Japanese tanks? No matter how many Chinese soldiers rush forward, the soldiers in front will eventually become human shields, blocking the gun with their bodies. The final kill will be on the last soldier. He is either holding a bundle of cluster grenades, or holding a Explosive package.
Just when Shang Zhen was already anxious, he suddenly saw Chinese soldiers suddenly appearing on the flanks of the Japanese tank.
It was expected that our own soldiers would appear there. If Shang Zhen didn't see the tank bomber appear just now, it was just because he was in a hurry.
But the behavior of those Chinese soldiers made Shang Zhen extremely puzzled.
The reason here is that Shang Zhen saw that the four Chinese soldiers did not hold cluster grenades, but instead the four men carried a long one - what kind of throwing is that?
Shang Zhen couldn't believe what he saw. He quickly raised the telescope in his hand. After a moment, he put the telescope down again after seeing it clearly. But when the telescope moved away from Shang Zhen's eyes, he His eyes were full of disbelief.
Just because the four soldiers worked together to carry a long log!
What is a log? The circle is just a grammatical modification. In fact, isn't it just a piece of wood?
Do your own people use wood to fight tanks?
Shang Zhen thought this was such an incredible thing. Could it be that the own army defending the city was going to use this log to knock over this Japanese tank?
However, that is impossible!
Although veterans like Shang Zhen despised the Japanese tank as "Iron Bastard", after all, the Iron Bastard was not a Bastard in the water.
You can use a wooden pole to knock over a living tortoise, but you can't use a thicker log to knock over a tank that is derisively called "Iron Bastard". Who knows how many tons or more it is? A steel monster weighing more than ten tons!
Then, something incredible happened in front of Shang Zhen.
Shang Zhen saw that the four soldiers really grabbed the log and stabbed it at the Japanese tank!
This is--
But at this time, "this" is useless, but "just", but Shang Zhen can no longer see how the four soldiers operate due to the angle of observation, and the Japanese tank blocks him gaze.
"Is this Gaha?" Shang Zhen blurted out his words because he was anxious and didn't understand.
Could it be that that log is not an ordinary log? There was a pack of explosives tied to the log. Did you poke the log into the Japanese tank and explode it?
When Shang Zhen was a child, he heard others say that some naughty children would use bamboo poles with firecrackers tied to them to blow up a hornet's nest.
But, but, Shang Zhen had never heard of this method of blowing up tanks!
What's more, Shang Zhen just looked at the log with a telescope, and he didn't remember what explosives were tied to it!
Or is the log hollow and filled with explosives? So the log is no longer an ordinary log, but it can be called a blasting tube?
Shang Zhen looked at the situation below with a look of disbelief on his face.
But then something even more incredible happened. He saw that the Japanese tank that was driving suddenly slowed down and stopped on the street!
What's going on? Shang Zhen was completely confused.
And at this moment, he saw another soldier appear on the other side of the road. This time, several soldiers got on at once. Those soldiers climbed onto the tank, which was already struggling to move. A soldier struggled to open the cover of the gun tower and then threw the grenade down!
The dull explosion of grenades and gunfire sounded at the same time, and white smoke finally came out of the gun turret of the Japanese tank. At the same time, the Chinese soldiers who attacked the Japanese tank also fell down.
It must have been hit by the Japanese infantry rushing towards the gap. As a spectator, Shang Zhen really couldn't pay attention to every detail on the battlefield.
If he could see every detail, he would not be a bystander but a participant in the war.
However, now Shang Zhen has ignored the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country. All he is thinking about is why the Japanese tanks stopped when the first few soldiers poked them with the logs.
After a moment, Shang Zhen suddenly slapped the bricks in front of him and shouted: "I understand!"
