Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The transport ship responsible for transporting troops by the Japanese army actually undertakes not only the task of transporting soldiers, but also needs to transport various supplies to the soldiers on the shore.

    There is a lot of supplies on their transport ship, enough to support two Japanese divisions for a week of continuous operations.

    At this time, the materials on these transport ships were still being transported by the Japanese army to temporary camps on the shore through landing craft and other ships.

    They want to gain a foothold in this area, and after capturing the two highlands of 4033 and 4032, they will continue to attack Shanhaiguan in the south.

    In order to cover the transportation of these transport ships, the Japanese army installed many anti-aircraft guns on these transport ships, specifically designed to target the possible incoming aerial bombardment of the Fourth Army.

    However, they waited all night yesterday, but did not find the enemy's fighter plane coming.

    This actually made the Japanese troops operating anti-aircraft guns feel lucky and somewhat regretful.

    These anti-aircraft artillery units were mobilized from Japan.

    ¡°These people have fought against US bombers, and now they also want to use their rich experience to fight against the bombers and fighters of the Fourth Army.

    The wind on the sea seems to be calmer.

    But the Japanese army was loading and unloading cargo faster.

    Because the dark clouds above their heads were getting heavier and heavier, almost like lead weights, hanging above their heads and threatening to fall at any time.

    The rain in the beginning of spring will not be too heavy, but it will be cold enough.

    They don¡¯t want their soldiers to be bathed in the cold rain of northern China and have to be transported with difficulty.

    For a large enough army, disease will also become a key factor affecting their combat effectiveness.

    For example, in Napoleon's battle against Moscow, a large part of the battle damage was the soldiers' diseases, which resulted in a large proportion of non-combat attrition and greatly reduced the combat capability of the troops.

    Another example is the U.S. military during the Pacific War. Because it was unable to effectively deal with tropical diseases such as dysentery, tens of thousands of U.S. troops did not die on the battlefield, but died in military camps, on the march, or in rear hospitals.

    The Japanese army doesn¡¯t want to see that scene. They must advance, attack, and transport as quickly as possible

    When the Japanese troops attacking from the front were bombarded by the artillery fire of the Fourth Army so much that they didn¡¯t even recognize their own mothers, behind the thick clouds, the fighter planes of the Fourth Army had already begun to fly over the Japanese transport ships.

    The roar of the propeller and engine mixed together, like spring thunder, running behind the dark clouds.

    The commander of the Japanese transport fleet picked up his telescope and looked at the hazy sky shrouded in dark clouds.

    The rumbling sound was the sound of shelling coming from afar, but it wasn't entirely true.

    Rich experience told him that besides the violent explosions, there were also sounds he was familiar with.

    The sound of airplane engines!

    "Order the anti-aircraft artillery troops to enter combat positions immediately!! Enemy fighter planes are about to arrive!!"

    He gave the order decisively.

    The moment he gave the order, the cold spring rain began to rush out of the clouds and hit his cheeks.

    He didn¡¯t have time to care about this. Instead, he ran and roared, urging the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery soldiers to get into combat positions as soon as possible.

    Then, he picked up the high-power command mirror and looked at the gloomy clouds above his head.

    There it was, right above their heads.

    He can be 100% sure.

    The enemy is behind the clouds, looking for the exact location of their fleet through the gaps in the clouds.

    Once discovered, these enemy fighter planes will immediately break through the clouds and dive towards their transport fleet.

    However, the falling raindrops were like flying steel needles. When they became denser, they blocked his sight.

    "The infrared night vision device has been turned on, locking the location of the Japanese fleet and preparing for bombing."

    Above the clouds, Nelson's voice was very calm.

    "The infrared night vision device has been turned on, and the position of the Japanese fleet has begun to be locked. The magazine has been opened, and the bombing preparation is complete!"

    The replies came from the radio one by one, with a coldness as cold as ice rain.

    Nelson said in his nasally Chinese: "Start bombing!"

    After saying that, this pilot from the United States was the first to press the bomb button.

    There was a whistling sound, and aerial bombs flew down directly from behind the clouds, falling on the Japanese fleet below.

    The Japanese anti-aircraft artillerymen were still looking up at the sky, letting the coldSave the Japanese soldiers who fell into the water.

    However, in the process of heading to the target area, they often become new targets of bombardment.

    Guderian also saw what happened on the seaside through the telescope.

    But because the distance was too far, he could only see the flickering firelight over there and the roar coming through the rain curtain.

    "Their air forces are out, damn it."

    When Guderian said this, the expression on his face was not relaxed.

    Mijiro Xiangzu, who was next to him, seemed to feel that everything was as he expected.

    And everything that is happening in front of you is what should happen.

    If this didn't happen, then he would have to doubt whether the enemy in front of him was still the Fourth Army he knew?

    "This is to be expected. The targets of the enemy's air force and air strikes are not limited to our ground forces."

    He said this and looked towards the position that was still standing in the distance.

    In the cold rain, the Japanese infantry and armored troops had passed through the dense artillery fire network and arrived at a position less than 300 meters away from the position.

    The battle between the two sides started in this cold rain.

    The Japanese soldiers who advanced to the front of the position all looked very embarrassed, but their eyes were full of murderous intent.

    They walked through the cold rain and came to the front of the position. The enemy position, shrouded in a gray curtain of rain, was so quiet that it made people palpitate.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
