April 28, Mukden battlefield.

The Huaxia army in the distance was preparing to attack, and the Japanese soldiers in the trenches were waiting for them, and the Japanese soldiers could see the huge smoke and dust on the Huaxia army's position from a distance, which was rolled up by the movement of the invading artillery and chariots.

At the end of April, in Mukden, it was spring, and the wind was very strong, and the howling wind blew the smoke and dust into the Japanese trenches and fell on the Japanese soldiers who were ready to die.

The Japanese fortifications were laid out quite tightly, and at the front were wide and deep trenches, the walls of which were paved with concrete, which were so hard that the artillery chariots did not want to climb up when they came down.

Behind the trenches were minefields and barbed wire, behind the minefields and barbed wire were infantry trenches, behind which there were fortresses every ten meters.

Pay attention to this number, ten meters, that is, on the entire sixty-kilometer perimeter of the defensive line, there are six thousand such fortresses, which is obviously impossible and unnecessary, and the reason why the Japanese army wants to do this is because ninety-nine percent of the fortresses are fake, made of loess, and the only purpose of their existence is to lure the plundering artillery chariots to open fire and waste the shells of the predatory artillery chariots.

There are communication trenches between the infantry trenches and the anti-artillery chariot trenches, and the invading artillery chariots want to rush through the trenches, there are two ways, one is to build bridges, the other is to fill the trenches, no matter which one, there must be the Huaxia army close to the trench, at this time, there is a Japanese army called the "trench death squad" rushed up, carrying explosives bags, bayonets, katana and the Huaxia army to engage in hand-to-hand combat, either kill the Huaxia army, or fight themselves.

The Japanese army also has a large number of water dragon artillery, deployed in the infantry trenches, according to the experience of the Daling River Campaign, the water dragon cannon is useless, because the range of the water dragon cannon is too close, only two or three hundred meters, before it can be fired, the plundering artillery chariot will wipe it out, and this time, the Japanese army came up with a new trick, and the Japanese commander who came up with this trick even patted his chest and assured Nogi Noshinori: "With my method, I will definitely be able to destroy all the invading artillery chariots!" ”

Nogi Noshinori was surprised and curious, so he asked, "What can you do?" ”

"My method is this, to strengthen our barbed wire, it turned out that our iron wire was tied to a wooden stake, the wooden stake was not buried deep, and the artillery chariot that was plundered fell down as soon as it was rushed, this time we replaced the wooden stake with an iron pillar, buried it deep in the ground, and poured another layer of concrete on the place where the iron pillar was buried."

"When the plundering artillery chariot rushes to the barbed wire, it will not be able to break through the barbed wire as quickly as before, but will be pulled by the barbed wire for a while, and then we will put grenades on the edge of the barbed wire, and the plundering artillery chariot will explode as soon as it hits the barbed wire grenade."

"A single grenade can't blow up the plundering artillery chariot, but we can put quicklime packets on the outside of the grenade, and let the grenade blow up all the quicklime into the eyes of the crew of the plundering artillery chariot, so that they can't see anything, and we can take advantage of this time to move the water dragon cannon out and bombard it, and the plundering artillery chariot will definitely be finished!"

Nogi Noshinori heard this method, if he got the treasure, the most feared thing for the Japanese army was the artillery chariot of the Chinese army, as long as the artillery chariot of the invasion was finished, the Huaxia army would have nothing to fear, so Nogi Noshinori made a special reinforcement of the barbed wire fence in the pre-war preparations.

It seems that in this battle, the Huaxia Army will not lose more than 100,000 people, and will not be blown up hundreds of plundering artillery and chariots, so it is not necessary to win.

Suddenly, three red signal flares rose in the sky above the Huaxia Army, and I saw an overwhelming array of plundering artillery chariots rushing over, and the speed of these predatory artillery chariots was not fast, followed by many infantry.

The war is imminent, all the Japanese soldiers are nervous, the Japanese soldiers at this time, the most eager to get is artillery support, but unfortunately, their artillery position has been blown up by the Monkey King airship two days ago, the Japanese artillery is really not long memory, was bombed once, the second time did not know the camouflage, and was blown up by the Monkey King airship in a daze.

Gradually, the predatory artillery chariots were only five or six hundred meters away from the front trenches, and the forts at the back of the defensive belt began to fire, and the bullets of the Maxim heavy machine guns whizzed towards the predatory artillery chariots, clanging on the predatory artillery chariots, but they could not hurt the infantry behind the predatory artillery chariots.

The artillery chariot stopped about 400 meters from the trench and then opened fire, this time to the Japanese soldiers, because the sound of the cannon was very low, completely different from the previous one.

When the shell exploded, the Japanese soldiers felt even more strange, the explosion sound of the shell was very dull, it didn't look like a shell at all, and the location of the explosion point made the Japanese soldiers even more strange, the explosion point was not those forts, nor the trenches, but in front of the trenches, and there was a distance of seventy or eighty meters from the trenches.

These are nothing, the scene after the explosion is the most strange thing for the Japanese soldiers, only to see that the explosion produced patches of pale yellow smoke, which were blown by the strong wind, and all of them were scattered to the positions of the Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese soldiers felt that something was wrong at this time, their eyes hurt from the heart, their throats were as uncomfortable as being cut by a knife, they coughed involuntarily, and their skin came into contact with the pale yellow smoke, and immediately blistered, began to fester, and at the same time stabbed violently, and some Japanese soldiers fell directly to the ground and died in the west.

The Japanese soldiers were all panicked, at a loss, they dared to fight with the Chinese army, and dared to use their flesh and blood to resist the attack of the invading artillery chariots, but the attack by these gases inspired the fear in their hearts, many Japanese soldiers jumped out of the trenches, fled to the back, and the Japanese positions collapsed for a while.

The news reached Nogi Noshinori's desk, Nogi Noshinori instantly remembered what the German army encountered in Jiaozhou Bay, that time the German army was also attacked by strange gases, and suffered heavy casualties, the Germans thought it was the Oriental Immortal Law, and sent an inspection team, but was bluffed by a group of charlatans in the Qing Kingdom.

After the Jiaozhou Bay incident, Japan studied the mysterious gas, and Japanese experts believe that the mysterious gas may be some kind of irritating and corrosive chemical, and the specific substance is unknown.

Through pre-war reconnaissance, the Huaxia Army already knew that the Japanese army's defense was extremely tight, and if it wanted to defeat the Japanese defense line, it would have to pay huge casualties, so Lin Fei made a quick decision and ordered the General Logistics Department to transfer a batch of chemical bombs to the front line.

Originally, the use of chemical weapons on his own land has always been opposed by Lin Fei, but now the Japanese army is too difficult to fight, so he can't take care of so much, when he was fighting Lushun Fortress, Lin Fei thought about using chemical weapons, but at that time, the artillery had no range, and if he wanted to throw, he could only rely on the Monkey King airship, so Lin Fei gave up.

In this operation, each predatory artillery chariot carried a base number of chemical bombs, and the concentration formed after being fired was enough to kill people instantly.

The artillery chariots of the invasion specially hit the shells in front of the trenches, because they were worried that the shock wave generated by the explosion of the shells would weaken the concentration of mustard gas, so they hit in front of the trenches and let the wind blow the mustard gas to the enemy's trenches.

The invaded artillery chariots all the chemical bombs were exhausted, and then retreated, the Huaxia army was not equipped with chemical protective clothing and gas masks, so it could not enter the chemical poison contaminated area to fight, and could only wait for the chemical poison toxicity to dissipate before daring to pass, the Huaxia army was not equipped with chemical protective clothing and gas masks, which was indeed a big mistake in Lin Fei's decision-making.

Mustard gas then raged on the Japanese position, the number of wounded and dead increased, and the Japanese position was full of Japanese soldiers who let out heart-rending screams, their faces and bodies were full of festering **, their eyes were dripping with pus, their chests shook sharply, and they coughed violently, which was extremely miserable.

The Japanese military doctors, who had no experience in dealing with chemical weapons, looked at the wounded in pain and were helpless, and the only thing they could do was to have the seriously wounded killed to alleviate their suffering......

The chemical bombs fired by the artillery vehicles of the invasion covered the eight-kilometer-long Japanese defense line, which was quickly emptied, and Nogi Noshinori was worried that the Huaxia army would take advantage of the weakness, so he hurriedly ordered the troops of the second line of defense to go over to replenish the defense, but the lethality of mustard gas had not completely dissipated, and the supplementary troops of the second line of defense were poisoned again, and there were many casualties.

The Japanese reinforcement troops hurriedly withdrew from the defensive line and did not dare to enter the defensive position again until ten hours later.

The Battle of Fengtian was the first battle in human history to use chemical weapons (the Jiaozhou Bay Incident was regarded as a special operation by later historians, not a campaign), and the Huaxia Army dropped a total of 10 tons of mustard gas, killing 6,000 Japanese soldiers and wounding more than 30,000 people, most of whom were injured and most of the Japanese soldiers were blind, that is, in just a few hours, the Huaxia Army made nearly 40,000 Japanese troops incapacitated.

After the end of the Second Nanyang World War, these wounded Japanese soldiers turned into "victims of chemical weapons" one after another, and went to the Dayu City Court to sue Lin Fei and the Chinese Imperial Government, demanding that Lin Fei give them compensation.

In the next day, the Huaxia Army launched a chemical weapons attack on the Japanese army as it did yesterday, but the Japanese army was still at a loss, and tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers lost their combat effectiveness. (Welcome to join the Canghai Readership Group - 423214695)
