Red Alert: Calamity Era
Chapter 639: Sudden shelling
The battle on the sea has begun, but now is not the time to provide fire support to Turner Island.
The sea is vast, and the enemy’s ships sailing towards Turner Island are very fast, and the distance between them is very large. The firepower of the seventeen cannons is limited and cannot form an effective firepower net. When the enemy troops land on the island, the artillery position is used Powerful time.
The observation team on the beach is looking at the only landing site on Turner Island.
The wind is blowing. In the vast sea, in the "rumbling" of the explosion on Turner Island, and in the flickering of the flames, twelve various landing craft ride the wind and waves on the sea towards the island of Turner. The beach quickly approached.
The distance is very close, less than one mile away from the landing point.
The journey went smoothly, and the landing craft traveling on the sea did not receive any attack.
The fortress is two kilometers away from the northeast of the beach. Although it is located in a high position, the beach can be observed well, but without powerful long-range weapons, it cannot pose any threat to the approaching landing craft.
Amid the roar of the "rumbling" engine, the Thunder transport vehicle, the U3 landing craft took the lead on the beach.
The airflow erupted by the suspended engine raised waves of sand and dust, causing the beach to be enveloped by a flying sand city for a while.
As the roar of the engine gradually became faint, the huge Thunder transport vehicle, the U3 type landing craft gently docked on the beach.
The "tortoise" type landing craft also washed up on the beach by relying on its tracks on the land.
Twelve huge landing craft occupies almost half the area of the beach. The world of yellow sand has become a world of metal.
When the landing craft washed up on the beach, the bombardment of the rock forest behind the beach was over. This was to prevent the gunfire from reaching the landing soldiers.
After all, the accuracy of the naval guns is not ideal, and it is very likely that there will be a missed shot. If one shell falls on the beach, it is likely to cause greater casualties to the landing troops.
After all, the power of naval guns is powerful. If a shell falls in the crowd, even a mobilized soldier in a powered combat uniform will be killed or injured.
"Crack!"
In the sound of the metal turning, the front door of the landing craft slowly opened.
"Pump! Pinch"
When the hatch opened, amid the intensive footsteps, countless dark green metal figures rushed out of the landing craft and poured into the beach.
The "rumbling" engine roared, and among the dark green figures, the huge hammer tank left the landing craft amid the powerful engine roar and washed up on the beach.
The crawler track turned, raising the dust.
After the hammer tank, the sickle mech that left the landing craft and entered the beach was much lighter.
The slender mechanical feet make the Sickle Mecha look very dexterous, and the four-legged dexterous walking on the beach.
When the landing force left the landing craft, the beach was suddenly filled with black and crushed figures, which was spectacular.
Among the dark green soldiers, there were many black figures who landed together with the mobilizers. They were dressed in black nun uniforms with hoods on their heads, quietly following the soldiers forward.
Leaving the landing craft, the landing troops did not stay on the beach for longer, but advanced towards the rock forest behind the beach.
When the landing force was put down, the landing craft engine on the beach roared again, ready to return and continue to transport the landing force.
"boom!"
At this moment, an explosion suddenly occurred on the beach about 100 meters north of the landing troops.
The huge explosion sounded deafening, the surging sand mixed with flames rose high, and the powerful shock wave made the yellow sand hit the landing troops like bullets.
"Boom! Boom!"
After the first explosion, before the landing troops reacted, a violent explosion sounded again, this time more.
Not only did many water jets rise in the sea, but also many fireballs continued to rise on the beach.
One after another, the explosions were spreading towards the landing forces.
In this situation, how can the landing troops fail to understand that the enemy is bombarding the beach, and the target is of course them.
"Leave the beach immediately and advance to the rocky forest, landing craft, please leave the artillery area immediately!"
The 5th-level sergeant commanding this landing force quickly issued the order.
When the order was issued, the advancing speed of the landing troops was suddenly improved, following the hammer tank and the sickle mecha that were fighting in front of them, they approached the chaotic forest along the stone path under their feet.
In the roar of the "engine", the landing craft also left the beach. At this time, the bombing area of the enemy's artillery was close to the beach where the landing troops were located. The landing craft that had just launched was immediately bombarded by the enemy's artillery fire. Between the water columns, the landing craft drove quickly in the direction of the fleet.
"boom!"
With a violent explosion, the armor of a "tortoise" type landing craft that returned from the sea suddenly burst last time. A huge fireball soared high, and a powerful shock wave mixed with some wreckage and swept around. , When falling from the air, it seemed like a shower of rain on the sea, ripples rippling little by little.
When the fireworks dissipated, the "turtle" landing craft hit by the shell still survived, and it was not broken by the powerful explosion, but the armor of the upper hull was almost completely torn, and it was black.
The cockpit was also affected, and was cut in half. From the outside, you can see a figure in the cockpit shaking.
The "tortoise" type landing craft hit by the artillery fire is still moving forward, and it seems that the power system is still well preserved.
On the beach, in the bombing with a large distribution of landing sites, although the landing troops evacuated the beach in time, a few shells still fell into the crowd.
As the surging sand rose up, many figures were blown out.
The power of the shells has far surpassed the protective capabilities of the powered combat uniforms. Within this short period of time as they landed on the island, the landing troops suffered casualties.
This surprised Natasha who had been observing the frontline situation on the heavy cruiser.
Where did the enemy’s shelling come from?
That fortress?
This is impossible. The fortress is being bombarded by naval artillery. How could it be possible to free up the artillery against the landing troops in the fierce fire.
Moreover, several conspicuous shore defense guns in the fort were destroyed as early as yesterday's shelling.
With the number of coastal defense guns in the fortress, it is impossible to have such a powerful firepower.
