"Understood! Unfortunately, our land and aviation combat distance is too short to support here, otherwise bombers can also support the ground."
Song Xiancheng had some regrets. They all knew that this landing battle would be very cruel before the war started. Because of the comparison of strengths between the two sides and other factors.
After hearing this, Shen Chengzhang shook his head, patted Song Xiancheng on the shoulder and said: "This time, your Marine Corps will take the lead. As the commander of the Marine Corps, you decide when to attack!"
"At two o'clock this afternoon! Let's launch a wave of probing attacks first!"
Song Xiancheng said after licking his dry lips.
At 1:30 in the afternoon, the Chinese fleet was still busy. On the deck of the aircraft carrier, ammunition and fuel were being extracted from the oil depot and ammunition depot using elevators.
Planes are constantly being transferred to the deck. At the same time, reconnaissance planes are constantly being released from the aircraft carrier to conduct reconnaissance on the Neon Army's positions.
¡° Neon is only supported by Citi, and they are also sending planes to intercept.
The aircraft dispatched were P40 fighters previously used by Citi. Now Citi has begun a large-scale replacement of P47 fighters.
As the most produced fighter aircraft by Citi in history, the performance of the P47 has been recognized by all Citi pilots, so it is now undergoing a large-scale replacement.
?????????????? However, a lot of P40 fighters were produced before, and these fighters were used to support Neon.
In the troop carrier at the back, the commander of the 1st Marine Division, Ren Ran, was reorganizing the troops with a cold face.
The soldiers all came out of their dormitories, neatly dressed, put on their weapons and equipment and were ready.
Wearing a general's uniform, Ren Ran glanced at the soldiers below one after another.
"This landing battle is a tentative attack. If you can successfully land, you will stabilize the beachhead position. If you cannot, you will retreat. Our amphibious tanks and landing craft will be waiting for you on the sea."
Ren Ran¡¯s voice reached the ears of all the soldiers, and they all looked at Ren Ran without speaking.
"Your first division is the elite of the Marine Corps, and your regiment is the elite of the first division. Although this operation is a test, I still hope you can successfully land.
Because you are the elite of the Marine Corps, you are the hope of the entire Marine Corps. It is your task to seize the beachhead and provide fire cover for the follow-up troops. Do you understand? "
"Understood!"
"Okay! Board the landing craft and amphibious tank immediately and set off!"
At 1:45, two battleships approached the coastline and began to bombard a section of the Neon Army's beachhead with their naval guns.
Their mission is not to conduct a covering artillery bombardment, but to smash a section of the position. As long as they smash a section of the position and allow the Marine Corps to successfully land on a section of the beachhead, they will be successful.
At the same time, the heavy cruiser also began to take action, using its naval guns to bombard the Neon Army position.
And the aircraft carrier also continued to release carrier-based aircraft, and the Neon Army's response was not slow. They quickly dispatched aircraft to start fighting with the carrier-based aircraft on the Huaxia aircraft carrier.
As soon as the two sides fought, fierce explosions broke out in the sky.
China¡¯s Hellcat carrier-based aircraft and the Neon Army¡¯s P40 aircraft have suffered losses on both sides, but the air battle is still ongoing.
On the sea, countless amphibious tanks and landing craft began to quickly approach the coastline.
The artillery unit of the Neon Army also began to fire shells continuously. The shells hit the sea one after another, raising water columns.
The Marines sitting in the amphibious tanks or landing crafts sat quietly inside, and did not change at all because of these explosions.
The water mist produced by the water column made the Marines feel that the air was so humid.
At 2:15, the main guns of the two battleships began to extend the bombardment, and began to bombard the left and right sides of this position and the rear.
And the heavy cruiser's naval guns are still bombarding this position.
¡°Poof~ßÚ~¡±
An amphibious tank rushed onto the beach, then stopped quickly. The Chinese soldiers inside immediately pulled out of the tank and rushed forward.
These veterans all know that in a landing battle, you must not stay in any place after getting off the tank or landing craft, because if you stay there, the enemy will treat you as a living target.
Only by rushing forward and killing the neon army in front will they have a chance to survive.
¡°Ding~ding~ding~¡±
The light and heavy machine gun bullets hitting the amphibious tanks made a crisp sound.
Many Marines were hit by bullets and lay on the beach as soon as they got out of the tank.
At the same time, the two Browning heavy machine guns equipped on the amphibious tanks are also using firepower as much as possible to provide fire support to the Marines.
Even though the casualties were so heavy, the landing of amphibious tanks still did not give up. Amphibious tanks continued to rush onto the beach and put down the soldiers.
And those tanks that put down their soldiers immediately turned around and retreated.
The soldiers on the landing craft behind got off the landing craft not far from the coastline, and began to rush towards the beach position carrying their weapons and equipment.
In order to cover the landing of the Marines, several frigates tried their best to get as close to the beach as possible and used their rapid-fire cannons to provide close support.
"Look for cover! Rush over!"
A platoon leader who landed was holding an stg44 assault rifle and roared with his back to the beach and his face to the sky. At the same time, he also replaced a magazine for his assault rifle.
¡°Da~da~da~¡±
A row of bullets hit Lin Zeng in front.
"Ah~Bah~17 heavy machine gun, this is Citi's Browning 17 heavy machine gun. Combat anti-aircraft gun, shoot him!"
The rocket launcher cannot reach this distance. For a rocket launcher with a range of only 100 meters, this distance is very embarrassing, so it can only be bombarded with combat anti-aircraft artillery. This is one of the reasons why combat anti-aircraft artillery has not been withdrawn from active service.
"Boom~"
Soon, a combat artillery shell flew towards the heavy machine gun. Within a few seconds after the explosion, the heavy machine gun roared again.
¡°It¡¯s too special, it¡¯s shot crookedly, reload it!¡±
Lin Zeng roared again.
¡°Da~da~da~¡±
At this moment, our own Browning M2 heavy machine gun rang.
"Light and heavy machine gun cover, others rush with me!"
After Lin Zeng finished speaking, he got up and rushed behind a big tree, and then rushed behind other trees.
The other marines were still like this, constantly dodging the neon army's fire.
The heavy machine guns on both sides roared continuously. And more and more Marines were landing on the beach.
For a time, China's firepower began to become fierce.
Especially when the newly equipped m42 general-purpose machine gun fired, bullets like a hail of bullets flew towards the Neon Army position.
¡°Buzz~buzz~buzz~¡±
Just as the Marines continued to land, the obvious roar of a diesel engine suddenly came from the front. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
