Chapter 282 Clearing the Remnant Enemies
Commander Wang of the Airborne Regiment looked at the airport building several stories high in the distance. The building seemed to be relatively sturdy and it was difficult to attack with his own submachine guns, machine guns and other weapons.
After pondering for a while, Captain Wang shouted loudly: "Mortars, concentrate all our large-caliber mortars, bombard me hard, and collapse this building."
Originally, according to the plan, this building was to be retained. If Xuzhou Airport is occupied by soldiers, a large number of soldiers will arrive here through the C-47 transport plane. Xuzhou Airport, and the airport's ancillary facilities, including this building, are ready to continue to be used.
Now, the Japanese are huddled in this building. If they dragged on, they would not wait for anyone. Maybe the Japanese reinforcements will come soon, and now they can only collapse the building.
With the order of Commander Wang, six 120mm large-caliber mortars were quickly set up. The airborne regiment took a total of 6 such mortars by airborne Xuzhou Airport. Twenty and thirty soldiers were in their seats one by one, waiting for Commander Wang's orders.
The battle situation at Xuzhou Airport was completely under the control of the airborne regiment. The soldiers firmly grasped the initiative. After more than half an hour of battle, all the Japanese planes at Xuzhou Airport were basically destroyed, and more than half of the Japanese at the airport were wiped out.
The soldiers were hundreds of meters away from the airport building and had no worries about setting up these mortars on a wide open space. Under everyone's suppression, the Japanese were completely impossible to threaten these mortars.
Airport building.
Kenichi Sato was sneering in the command hall, imagining that his reinforcements would arrive soon and that he could cooperate inside and outside. He eliminated the airborne unit of the newly formed 6th Army in one fell swoop.
A Japanese colonel next to him was holding a telescope through the glass window to watch the battle outside. Suddenly, the Japanese colonel's face changed, as if it had been frozen.
"Your Excellency Commander, look over there." The Japanese colonel's tone was a little anxious and a little frightened.
Kenichi Sato looked forward and saw several large-caliber mortars lined up in an open space a few hundred meters away from him. It was obvious that the target of these mortars was his airport command building.
This is a 120mm caliber mortar!!!
Kenichi Sato's face changed drastically. Such a large caliber mortar has great power, and his command building can never withstand the bombardment of these mortars.
Thinking of this, Sato Kenichi shouted anxiously and shouted loudly: "Retreat. Retreat quickly."
After shouting, Sato Kenichi hurriedly walked out of the command hall with a command knife, preparing to go downstairs and withdraw from the building. Several Japanese commanders next to him hurriedly followed, and everyone ran out anxiously.
far away.
Commander Wang saw that the soldiers were ready to fire. One 120mm mortar had aimed at the distant target, and boxes of shells had been opened, and the soldiers were all in their place. So Commander Wang waved his hand and shouted loudly.
"Fire the fire, fire the fire. Blast that building for me."
Hearing the order of his regiment commander, the soldiers immediately fired fire. Soon, bursts of fire fire sounded, and mortar shells flew into the sky, making a sharp whistling sound, flying towards the command building.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
A violent explosion sounded, and shells exploded in the airport command building. The mortar fired much faster than howitzers. In just one minute, dozens of shells hit the target, and the entire building was shrouded in explosions.
Inside the building.
The Japanese were all frightened. There were many people in the entire building. With such a violent explosion, the entire building seemed to be in danger of collapse.
Some Japanese storms rushed out of the building with their heads in their arms. As soon as they ran out of the gate, a bomb exploded at the gate, killing a large area of Japanese storms. The building was in a mess, and hundreds of Japanese storms could not all run out in a short time.
Kenichi Sato, who was hurrying to escape, was blocked in the building and couldn't get out. The rumbling explosion sounded, and the whole building was shaking.
With a thud, the building collapsed more than half, raised the dust in the sky, crushing a large number of Japanese devils to death. The entire building suddenly became a dangerous building, which could collapse at any time and completely turned into a ruin.
Seeing the shaking building, Sato Kenichi looked up at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky, his face pale. Half of the collapse of the building, the sky was exposed, and Sato Kenichi was able to see it when he looked up.
A shell made a sharp whistling and flew straight towards Ken Sato. The shell magnified infinitely in Sato Ken's eyes. With a loud "boom", the shell exploded beside Ken Sato.
The violent explosion tore Ken Sato directly into a bunch of blood mist. Several pieces of minced meat flew far away with the explosion's air waves, without a trace. Several Japanese officers next to him were thrown away by the air waves generated by the explosion like broken sacks. Being affected by such a violent explosion, these Japanese officers were blown to death before they were thrown out.
Mortar shells fell down one after another, and the building collapsed immediately and turned into a pile of ruins.
Even after the building turned into a ruin, the soldiers fired some shells, and one by one exploded on the ruins. The Japanese who were not dead for the time being under the ruins were either killed or shocked to death under the violent explosion.
far away.
Commander Wang and his soldiers saw such a large building turning into ruins under the dense bombardment of mortars. Everyone cheered, and Commander Wang waved his fists in the air even more vigorously.
The entire building was bombarded into ruins, and hundreds of Japanese devils at Xuzhou Airport died instantly. The soldiers could free up their hands to deal with the remaining Japanese devils at Xuzhou Airport.
The battle to eliminate the remaining Japanese devils has begun.
The soldiers ranged from a dozen to twenty or thirty. Everyone began to clear away the remaining Japanese devils at the airport, and the Japanese who continued to resist were successively eliminated.
As time passed, the battle at the airport gradually came to an end, and the Japanese at the entire Xuzhou airport were almost wiped out by the soldiers.
The soldiers began to treat the wounded, began to clean the battlefield, and even began to clean up the airport runway to prepare for the arrival of the next batch of C-47 transport aircraft.
In a few hours, a large number of C-47 transport aircraft will transport a large number of soldiers, and a large number of weapons and equipment will reach here. One by one, one will land at Xuzhou Airport. As time goes by, more and more soldiers will be around Xuzhou Airport.
Of course, all this depends on whether the soldiers of the airborne regiment who arrived here first can withstand the crazy counterattack of the Japanese reinforcements and whether they can defend Xuzhou Airport.
The battle gradually ended, and the guns and cannons at the airport gradually became sparse.
Some soldiers began to build simple fortifications, and the soldiers set up machine guns, occupying a favorable position to defend against the arrival of a large number of reinforcements from the Japanese.
...
The 48 "Air Fortress" bombers leaving Xuzhou Airport first hovered around Xuzhou area, with a height of several thousand meters, blue sky, and good visibility. Perhaps many Japanese Japanese in Xuzhou area have seen this bomber group.
With so many planes reaching Xuzhou Airport, the Japanese in Xuzhou must have known about it one after another. The soldiers had no worries and drove the "Air Fortress" bomber to hover over Xuzhou, looking for bombing targets.
The tactical purpose of the soldiers who were flying the "Air Fortress" bomber was very obvious, which was to give priority to bombing over to reinforce the Japanese reinforcements, rather than the Japanese military camps in the Xuzhou area.
Prioritizing bombing of reinforcements that have arrived can maximize the time for the soldiers of the airborne regiment. Time is the key to determining the outcome of this battle.
After hovering around, the soldiers discovered two bombing targets. On a road leading to Xuzhou Airport, a team of Japanese soldiers were marching, leading more than a dozen tanks and several armored vehicles. This may be a squadron of the Japanese chariots.
Not far from this chariot squadron, only two or three kilometers behind, a longer team of Japanese soldiers, riding in a large number of trucks, and even a few armored vehicles in the team. This long team may have thousands of people.
These Japanese were marching urgently, and along the road, raising dust all over the sky.
