Chapter 315: Thermobaric bomb explodes again, attacking Anshan and engaging in street fighting

The bomber left and the Japanese also heard the explosion, but what they didn't expect was that the power of the bomb was too great.

The 2.5 Japanese soldiers hiding in the underground fortifications collectively felt the threat of death.

Thermobaric bombs are particularly suitable for attacking underground facilities such as bunkers, tunnels and caves because the overpressure they generate can penetrate into small spaces, cause serious damage to structures, and can effectively kill hidden personnel.

The energy generated by the collective explosion of forty thermobaric bombs can be imagined.

The temperature in the underground fortifications rose rapidly, and the Japanese did not notice this. At one time, a large number of people suffered serious burns or scalds, rolling on the ground in pain, which was very scary to look at.

Thermobaric bombs would produce strong shock waves and pressure waves during the explosion process, which had incredible destructive power and directly caused the collapse of some places. They also caused direct shock wave damage to some Japanese soldiers, who were shocked to death and died with bleeding from all seven orifices.

During the explosion of the thermobaric bomb, a large amount of oxygen was consumed due to the violent combustion reaction. Therefore, the people alive in the underground fortifications at this time showed symptoms of hypoxia, shortness of breath, and some even suffocated to death.

Everyone was panicked. Seeing this scene, they all wanted to rush out, fearing they would suffocate to death here.

This is the only thought of those who have escaped the shock wave and high-temperature burns. Rushing out to breathe free air is better than being shot to death than being suffocated to death here.

When the two division commanders saw this scene, they knew they could not stay here any longer. The enemy's bomb was too powerful and they would die if they stayed here.

"Communicator, send a telegram immediately to report the situation here. We must pass the news on."

It’s a pity, the correspondent said helplessly.

"Two division commanders, there is no way to send a message. All the telegraph machines were damaged by the bomb just now."

To be precise, the electronic components were damaged by the shock wave, which left them both speechless, but this was not the time to talk about this.

"Rush out immediately. You will die here if you don't leave." The commander of the 20th Division said anxiously.

They then rushed out together, but were stopped at a critical point. The shock wave caused the ground to collapse, and the collapsed area was 500 meters. They were blocked here and could not move forward.

"Baga, God is going to kill us. What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and dig, or we will all die here."

The two division commanders ordered the rest of the people to start digging, otherwise they would suffocate to death here.

But the rest of them had no strength left in their bodies, and their hands holding the ordnance shovels were shaking, but they just kept digging slowly.

However, they were destined to not be able to dig out. Although it was only 500 meters, tens of thousands of them just didn't have the strength to hold on. After half an hour when the oxygen here was completely gone, they all slowly closed their eyes.

The outside world didn't know about this, not even the Japanese reinforcements. The Kwantung Army headquarters could no longer contact the two divisions, and they didn't know what had happened.

After the bombing, the ground troops began to advance forward. They did not rashly enter the underground fortifications, but prepared an ambush nearby.

They were not sure whether the Japanese would come out after the bombing. After all, the thing looked scary after exploding. They did not dare to get close and just waited.

The next day, it was still as quiet as usual, and some people could no longer wait.

"Commander, our reconnaissance team is willing to go and check out what's going on. It's too quiet."

"Well, bring a gas mask and oxygen to prevent poisonous gas or lack of oxygen in the underground bunkers."

"Yes, Commander."

The commander of the Third Division also felt the need to go down and take a look. The silence made him feel a little uneasy, so he had to send someone to take a look.

Just like that, a hundred scouts put on protective clothing and entered the underground fortifications carrying AK-47s.

They walked less than fifty meters before they saw a collapsed area, which was completely blocked. They also saw dead Japanese soldiers nearby, some of whom were burned, some died of bleeding from all seven orifices, and some died of suffocation.

In order to test whether there were still Japanese soldiers, they opened fire at the collapsed area. After firing a burst of bullets, they listened carefully, but there was no movement from the opposite side.

"Damn, it can't be that powerful. All the Japanese were suffocated to death?" a scout asked in disbelief.

"Well, it's very likely. If we want to know the answer, we need to dig this place up to find out what's inside. Let's go up and report." said the captain.

Everyone finally got out of here and it took ten minutes to get to the two commanders.

"Report, the Japanese inside are probably all dead. Some were burned to death, some bled to death, and some seemed to be suffocated to death. Anyway, their deaths were very tragic."

Their faces changed immediately when they heard this. This is too scary. What kind of weapon is this?

"Listen, don't let anyone know what's going on here. Everyone here is very secretive. If the outside world knows that we use such weapons, they will definitely investigate us."

The two division commanders immediately gave the order.

"Yes, we won't tell anyone, please rest assured, teachers."

"Well, let's go scout the surrounding area. We need to keep moving forward. If everything goes well, we can take Anshan as soon as possible."

"Yes, Commander."

Just like that, the two division commanders ordered the scouts to continue their investigation in the direction of Anshan, and they also continued to move forward, leaving the First and Second Divisions behind to take care of the things here, and they were going to continue to move forward.

The two had already sent a telegram directly to the front-line command center about what had just happened, but they used some special words to express the results of the bombing.

"The bombing was very successful. All the enemies have been killed and the fortifications have collapsed. There will be no survivors inside. After all, they can't survive for long without oxygen."

He did not mention the power of the bomb, but only said that the bombing effect was good. I believe that the logistics minister, General Zhao, will understand what they mean after seeing it.

The two divisions arrived at the outskirts of Anshan City at a very fast speed and officially launched an attack on the city.

Although the overseas Chinese here have been armed and there are several thousand Japanese soldiers in the mine, they have no heavy weapons, so the outcome is doomed.

Inside the position at the Anshan city gate, there was a large group of Japanese soldiers guarding the position, and behind them there were five hundred overseas Chinese helping and shouting "Navi".

But the next moment they became obedient. The 122mm artillery of the two divisions began to fire. The power of 48 artillery pieces caused the defenders to collapse in ten minutes.

In this way, the tank battalion easily entered the city, and the infantry soldiers following behind continued to shoot at the fleeing Japanese and armed expatriates.

A fierce street fight broke out between them, and later several thousand people from the mine who came to support them joined in the street fighting.

"Notice, kill all the Japanese except women and children."

The two division commanders issued an order that violated discipline. After all, according to the Geneva Convention, if the other party surrendered, they could enjoy prisoner treatment.

"Yes, both teachers."

The staff officers quickly issued the order, which was not done by telegram but orally, so that there would be no handle left for outsiders in the documents. As for the soldiers' propaganda being known to others, they would have many excuses, as they would not have the final say.
