Lost and Spy

Early in the morning, 11 mortars were delivered.

Installing such a big guy is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Company F was responsible for the installation.

The minesweeper continued to sweep the mines.

The Ranger Battalion had a firepower duel and blocking competition with the Japanese army on the opposite side.

As the best sniper in the Ranger battalion, Corporal Andrew had easily hunted down four Japanese soldiers.

"Major, we have new orders."

Lieutenant William walked over in a hurry: "The higher-ups ordered us to control Knighting Street as soon as possible, and build a new line of defense."

"What happened?" Meng Shaoyuan asked immediately.

"We have crossed the Pasig River and fought repeatedly with the Japanese army at the Quezon Bridge." Lieutenant William Hui reported: "In the direction of the Quezon Bridge, the Japanese army has shown signs of defeat.

According to the information we intercepted, the Japanese army had sent reinforcements to secure the Quezon Bridge. Whether the Japanese army fled in defeat or the reinforcements arrived, they had to pass through Knighting Street. "

Meng Shaoyuan understood: "So we not only need to defeat the Japanese army here as soon as possible, but also stop the Japanese army here for a period of time."

"Yes, Major."

Originally, it was still the Ranger Battalion, and the manpower and firepower were not necessarily sufficient.

But with the arrival of Company F, the situation quickly changed.

"Tell Nate to speed up." Meng Shaoyuan no longer hesitated: "In three hours, launch the attack on time!"

……

Yanagisawa Ako and Yanagisawa Hazuki still don’t quite understand what’s going on.

They fled the building of the Ministry of Communications with the chaotic crowd.

Then where to go?

They don't know.

Also more directionless.

No one to guide them, let alone tell them what to do and what not to do.

All they know is to find small alleys as much as possible.

God knows what to expect on the road.

They too were in danger.

While fleeing, they saw with their own eyes that a group of Japanese soldiers killed dozens of locals in an alley.

There are corpses all over the place.

Blood has stained the road red.

Then, the Japanese army also found them.

They saw two Japanese soldiers walking towards them with bloody bayonets.

Yazi anxiously told the other party in Japanese that they were also Japanese.

Maybe it was because too many people were killed today, maybe it was because the other side was his compatriots, and the sergeant leading the team stopped his men.

Yazi, who narrowly escaped death, asked hurriedly, where should they go?

Sergeant Cao gave them a numb look, didn't say anything, just left with his own people.

No matter how Yazi and Ye Yue pleaded behind their backs.

Where should I go?

No one knew where to go.

Manila has long been turned into a huge tomb.

Wherever there is death.

The two women got away with it this time, but next time, they won't be so lucky.

Of course Yazi and Ye Yue couldn't understand the words in Juncao's mind.

They just want to survive.

Now they are hungry.

They couldn't remember how many times they hadn't eaten.

But in Manila, you can't find anything to eat.

They didn't dare to stop, so they could only continue to move forward aimlessly with hunger and great exhaustion.

Until they couldn't move anymore and fell down, or were killed.

……

All 12 mortars have been installed.

Looking at these 12 big guys, every American soldier's mood improved a lot.

"Prepare!"

Meng Shaoyuan gave the order, and Lieutenant Nate immediately gave the order:

"Prepare!"

"let's start!"

Following Meng Shaoyuan's words, the fiercest attack on Knighting Street began!

This cannon is different, these 12 mortars are at the forefront of the battlefield, coupled with their own high precision, and the blow to the Japanese army on Knighting Street is fatal.

The artillery shells fell accurately on the positions and fortresses of the Japanese army.

Amidst the sound of explosions, what brought the Japanese army was death, a despair more terrifying than death!

They have nowhere to hide.

They can only watch death come!

Natsume Seiichiro has nothing to do.

What can he do?
He has no countermeasures.

However, the torture of the Japanese army has only just begun!

"Change bombs!"

On Lieutenant Knight's order, the gunner began reloading.

Changed from high-explosive bombs to white phosphorus bombs.

In the future, international conventions will prohibit the use of such weapons, which cause great physical and psychological trauma to soldiers of belligerent countries.

But here, who cares?

The white phosphorus bomb at this time is an important weapon for the US military.

The ignition point of the white phosphorus bomb is extremely low, and it will burn once it comes into contact with oxygen, emitting a yellow flame and thick smoke at the same time.

It can be used to burn substances that are difficult to burn with ordinary combustion materials. It is characterized by being able to fully burn in a small space or a space with low air density. Generally, the burning temperature can reach above 1000 degrees Celsius, which is enough to destroy all organisms within an effective range.

The white phosphorus bomb is very harmful. It burns continuously after it touches an object until it goes out. Therefore, when it touches a human body, the flesh will be penetrated, and then go deep into the bone.

It is an extremely dangerous and terrifying incendiary bomb. If it sticks to the skin, it is difficult to remove it in time. The burning temperature is so high that it can burn all the way to the bone. At the same time, the smoke produced is extremely irritating to the eyes and nose.

The U.S. military used it to deal with the Japanese in the fortifications of the Pacific Islands. It was very effective, and more importantly, it had little technical content.

Even for a long time, the US military was extremely obsessed with the use of white phosphorus bombs.

Future international conventions?
It's a fart for Americans!

The United Nations Convention on Conventional Weapons adopted in 1980 lists it as a prohibited weapon and does not allow its use against civilians or in civilian areas.

But the Americans refused to join the convention.

Not only that, but it is also widely used in Iraq.

This is why Meng Shaoyuan has no good impression of the United States.

Of course, now in Manila, on Knighting Street, Meng Shaoyuan is still very happy to see the Japanese soldiers howling under the white phosphorus bombs.

Anyway, there is no convention prohibiting the use now, is there?

A terrible scene happened.

If it is said that under the attack of high-explosive bombs before, the Japanese army was still thinking about how to save themselves and how to avoid them, but when the white phosphorus bombs appeared, they even lost the ability to resist and struggle.

Burning will continue as long as white phosphorus fragments remain and are exposed to the air.

This blow is completely fatal.

Natsume Seiichiro was dumbfounded.

The impact of the shells was completely in his plan, and he was ready for it.

But what did the US military use?

His subordinates did not die all at once.

They fell to the ground, howling like wild animals.

Their skin was burning and festering.

Some people are still begging their companions loudly to end their lives with a single shot.

However, the fate of their companions was not much better than them.

Natsume Seiichiro's hand holding the binoculars was trembling uncontrollably.

This is hell!

Yes, hell, the hell that took all the Japanese!
