Despite the earth-shattering artillery fire from the Japanese fleet, neither the commander of the Second Fleet, Anji Kato, nor the commander of the 18th Division, Kamio Mitsuomi, felt confident, because it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still three or four hours until dark. No one knows when the Chinese Air Force bombers will arrive.
According to the descriptions of the remnants of the Outer Mongolia Army and Jijun Army who have experienced bombings by the Chinese Air Force, the power of the bombs is very brutal, even worse than the shells of the 203mm main gun of the cruiser Joban. If we go by the boasts in Chinese newspapers, it would be like blowing a hole in the sky and an abyss in the ground. Although Anji Kato and Mitsuomi Kamio sneered at the Chinese newspaper's statement, believing that it was simply "one dog barking, a hundred dogs barking" and spreading rumors, the public opinion was fierce, and they couldn't help but become suspicious in their hearts.
Maybe people always have a little fear of unknown and powerful things, right?
In Kamio Mitsuomi's opinion, it is best to land in the evening. At that time, there are no aircraft interference in the sky, and the Japanese navy and army dominate the Far East. It is completely possible to easily break through the beachhead and develop in depth. By the time dawn comes, you will already be in the center. With me and you among me, what will happen even if the bombers come? Anji Kato explained but scoffed at Kamio Mitsuomi¡¯s idea: Landing in the evening? Do you think it is very easy for naval ships to sail in shallow waters? Do you think it is easy for army officers and soldiers to swim in the dark? Do you think a division's personnel, horses, firearms, ammunition, and various supplies can all be transported overnight? The Army is indeed a red deer!
After weighing it for a long time, they finally chose to land in the afternoon. Although landing at this time will still require at least one round of bomber attacks, the invincible Imperial Japanese Army should not collapse, and we can take this opportunity to experience the power of bombing, so as not to panic in the future. At night, the army can take advantage of the darkness to go ashore to capture the city and regain morale for the next day's battle.
But what does bombing look like? Anji Kato and Mitsuomi Kamio were afraid but at the same time, they had a little bit of expectation.
Ordinary Japanese officers and soldiers naturally did not know what their commander was thinking. When they jumped from the cabin into the sea and braved sparse artillery fire, they trudged towards the Chinese position on the opposite side. What they were thinking most about was how to attack as quickly as possible. Get down to the opposite position, and then how to vent the evil fire that has been suppressed on the ship for the past few days.
When they were less than 300 meters away from the coast, the firepower suddenly became fierce. The dozen or so sergeants who were walking in front of them with their flags in a domineering manner stiffened at first, then twisted their bodies and fell into the water, bleeding rapidly. Dyeing the surrounding sea water red. The soldiers behind tried their best to avoid them, but they were surrounded by friendly forces in front, back, left, and right, and many tactical actions could not be completed in the water up to the waist. Even if they were completed, they would be almost out of shape. They could only watch others or themselves being shot. , and then fell.
Seeing that his own soldiers were constantly being killed, the Japanese officers were also a little red-eyed. He drew his saber and pointed it straight ahead. He hissed and ordered: "Speed ??up the charge! Rush to the beach as soon as possible! Hurry, warriors of the empire, charge for His Majesty the Emperor!" Falling, a bullet hit his head, and he immediately fell into the sea, making his own contribution to dyeing the sea water red.
Sun Liangcheng put down his rifle with satisfaction, turned around and asked the first battalion commander Chen Tiaoyuan: "How is it, Xuexuan, how are the casualties of the troops?"
After Chen Tiaoyuan finished shooting the magazine in the gun, he replied: "Reporting to the regimental commander, after the round of shelling just now, our battalion had a total of 23 killed, 38 lightly or seriously wounded, 2 heavy machine guns and a 60mm light mortar damaged. .¡±
Sun Liangcheng sighed: "In just over ten minutes of shelling, we lost nearly half of the company! Inform Deputy Commander Zhu of the second line of defense that once the shelling stops, one or two companies will be sent up immediately to support. We must Try our best to compress the Japanese troops on the beach as much as possible, and try not to let them transport heavy weapons ashore, otherwise we will be under greater pressure! In addition, inform each company and platoon that soldiers and heavy weapons must change positions in time, the Japanese fleet will wait a moment We will definitely take special care of our area, don¡¯t get targeted!¡±
Chen Tiaoyuan nodded, and then ordered the deputy battalion commander and the guards to leave separately.
As expected by Sun Liangcheng, the firepower of the Japanese fleet quickly circled back and aimed at the first line of defense and opened fire. Under the intensive care of artillery of various calibers, the whole battalion suffered heavy casualties immediately. The heavy firepower was completely destroyed. There were even deserters in several positions. Coupled with the influx of Japanese landing soldiers, the situation at the first line of defense immediately became precarious.
At this time, Chen Tiaoyuan also had flowers hanging on his arms. The fierce battle on the battlefield made him slightly tired, and he asked in a hissing voice: "Captain, we can't stand it any longer! Why don't we retreat to the second line of defense and make further arrangements?" ?¡±
Sun??¡±
Sun Liangcheng asked cautiously at this time: "Xue Xuan, what are the casualties of our regiment?"
Chen Tiaoyuan's face immediately turned ugly: "This - Captain, you'd better have a good rest, it's important to recover from your injuries!"
Sun Liangcheng said angrily: "Am I still the regiment commander? Can the company still know the casualties of the troops?"
Under Sun Liangcheng's gaze, Chen Tiaoyuan had no choice but to say: "According to statistics, the entire regiment has a total of 467 killed, 172 seriously injured, and the remaining personnel are basically lightly injured The brigade commander praised our regiment for annihilating the 18th Division of the Japanese Army. The regiment has created prerequisites and requires our regiment to start withdrawing from the theater from tomorrow for supplementary rest and recuperation."
Sun Liangcheng grasped the sheets tightly with both hands, and then let go after a long while: "Xue Xuan, help me go to see the brigade commander. Our regiment must participate in the battle tomorrow no matter what! If we can form a battalion, I will be the battalion commander; if we can form a company, I will be the battalion commander." Become the company commander. I will avenge my brothers who died!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
