The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2509: The Bloody Sea

The huge cannon that the Japanese had hidden for a long time was covered with American blood in the first attack! The first destroyed tank landing ship was hit by 4 shells and broke into two pieces! The raging fire spread quickly from the hull. A few minutes later, with the violent explosion of fuel and internal ammunition, a storm swept across the beach hundreds of meters in radius. At this time, the other landing ships that had washed up on the beach were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, waiting for the butcher knife flying from a distance.

"God, save the U.S. Army!" Marshall, who was still in the fleet at this time, couldn't help but sighed while looking at the burning landing ship in the distance. "No, we must do something! Immediately contact the navy. I hope they will suppress the Japanese long-range artillery positions at all costs for the United States. We can't watch the US Army officers and soldiers who land on the beach being driven into the sea like this!" Marshall was right. The navy liaison officer said.

"Sir, it's impossible. Even if our 14-inch guns use strong charges, they will never hit the Japanese heavy artillery positions hidden behind the mountain. Their position is too tricky, and there is a dead end of firepower." The navy liaison officer explained. Tao.

"Then we can't watch our people be killed by the Japanese, absolutely not!" Marshall roared angrily.

"Listen to me, the first step is to immediately contact the carrier-based aircraft forces of the aircraft carrier and let them carry bombs to suppress the Japanese artillery positions in the distance. They do not want to destroy them, but they cannot shoot for the time being. The second step is to immediately order the US troops that have landed to launch. Assault! If you don’t want to be driven into the sea or killed, then you must let your soldiers rush into the Japanese defense line, and then use your light weapons to entangle with the Japanese army in the trenches, and the tank troops move to open ground. There are no landmarks in the place, and the Japanese army cannot easily complete the shooting and settlement, and the hit rate of attacking moving tanks with long-range artillery is very low. The Japanese will definitely not do this." Major General Kars said.

At the most critical moment, the performance of the Germans was still worthy of the compensation paid by the Americans. After a comprehensive analysis of the battlefield situation, Major General Karls gave the best solution in the current situation! If the naval gun is out of reach, it can only be suppressed by the carrier-based aircraft. Although Major General Karls does not know how the Japanese gun positions are arranged, he knows that if the gun is fired at such a distance, it is a 220MM Saint King Kong gun or a 194MM The elevation angle of the GPF artillery will be very large, and it is impossible for the Japanese to build a rotatable closed fort at a large elevation angle. Therefore, the most likely result is that the Japanese build an open-air reinforced concrete gun nest on the gun position. Up!

It is somewhat difficult to directly destroy a certain heavy artillery position with modern aircraft. But because the operator is in the open air, it is possible to suppress it with bombs and machine guns. Therefore, dispatching carrier-based aircraft to suppress and relieve the pressure on the front line is the most realistic way!

And what about the current landing troops? It is impossible to withdraw it. Conditions do not permit, and the US military will not allow its first wave of landings to fail in this way. Well, if you can't retreat, you can only attack! The battleship fire was used to detonate the minefield at the same time to suppress the Japanese howitzers, and then the armored units and infantry forcibly attacked the Japanese defense lines.

As long as the infantry can occupy a section of the Japanese position, then there is no need to worry too much about the Japanese ultra-long-range artillery, because after all, this is the Japanese, not on the western front. The Japanese do not have so many long-range artillery and shells that can cover every inch of land. The infantry made use of the Japanese trenches to stabilize their position, and then continued to advance with their own infantry firepower. As for tanks? This thing is left on the beach to find a shelter first, anyway, the tank is more skinny, unless it is directly hit, otherwise there will be nothing that can threaten these iron guys, at least the wolf tank!

As for how to get the follow-up troops up, how to solve the Japanese long-range artillery? The previous question is easier to answer. It is not convenient during the day, so let's transport it at night. As for the Japanese long-range firepower? Under current conditions, only carrier-based aircraft can be used for suppression, and it is not easy to completely remove it. Naval guns are out of reach, and a single-shot carrier-based bomb is not enough for the 220MM heavy cannon weighing more than 20 tons...

"Very well, that's it. I will contact the Navy immediately." The navy liaison officer on the side quickly began to prepare related work, and Marshall on the side also began to adjust the landing plan, at least before the Japanese long-range artillery was suppressed, followed by the landing ship. The troops on the beach can no longer go on!

The Japanese really cherish their artillery shells. After destroying several landing ships that were unloading, half of the terrifying long-range artillery shots stopped, even though there were still a large number of American soldiers on the beach. Although some tanks have been put into battle. This situation not only surprised the Germans, but even made the Americans feel a little wilted. After all, in accordance with the principle of the Western Front, let alone Xu Jin's barrage during the offensive, even before the start of the fight, it is normal to carry out fire suppression for more than one day!

"Let's attack immediately!" Taking advantage of the rare opportunity, the commander on the front issued an attack order. But Patton's armored forces rushed up first after the long-range naval guns cleared the remaining minefields! However, when approaching a distance of about 400 yards, the sudden emergence of a large number of firepower caused Patton's armored forces to encounter today's second large-scale attrition!

Accompanied by the sound of high-speed metal collision and explosion, Patton felt that his eyes suddenly went dark, and then the whole tank was shaking. Then, one after another, one after another, the shells flew out from the corner, hitting the tank that rushed to the front one after another. The sour sound of human teeth~lightnovelpub.net~ The sound of the armor back panel twisting and breaking filled Patton’s ears, and the tank at this time was like a boat shaking in the waves under constant attack. It can be overturned.

Inside the swaying car body, Patton managed to grab the handrail inside the turret, and then quickly pulled down a handle next to it! Boom! Accompanied by several unrecognizable blasts, several smoke grenades were thrown out. After a few seconds, a cloud of smoke obscured the front of the tank, which gave the driver a chance to drive the tank that was hit by several shots. Out of the battle.

The Japanese controlled the distance very accurately. When the tank evacuated 800 meters away, no artillery fired at Patton, so that Patton could even quietly stretch out his head to check the damage of the tank.

"How's the situation? It's really not easy for us to survive just now. I feel that the **** of death is already floating above my head, but finally came alive." The gunner said.
