Two days passed in a blink of an eye. As another night fell, Quanzhou Pier, where hundreds of thousands of people were stationed, immediately became lively with the arrival of two 10,000-ton transport ships.
The Sixteenth Army of the East China Field Army's ace unit, the Sixth Corps, under the order of the Corps Commander Chen Geng, quickly boarded two cargo ships with their equipment. At the same time, the three destroyers of the East China Sea Fleet were like three huge destroyers.
Like guards, the finished products were deployed around the two cargo ships, standing on the sea, ready to go...
"Reporting to the Vice Chairman, all commanders and fighters of the first wave of troops attacking Taiwan have boarded the ship in accordance with the order and are ready to set off. Please give instructions..." A few hours later, Commander-in-Chief of the Taiwan Attack Liu Hua, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan and other commanders
Just after appearing at the dock, the commander of the Sixth Corps, Chen Geng, the commander-in-chief of the front line of the Taiwan Attack Campaign, stood in front of Liu Hua with excitement and reported...
"Commander Chen, this is a God-given opportunity given to us by God, so I hope you can seize it. I won't say more. Time is running out. On behalf of the entire Military Commission and the Taiwan Attack Command, I wish you victory.
The successful landing on the beach opened up a successful road for the follow-up troops to liberate Taiwan Island..."
"Please rest assured, chief, and promise to complete the task..."
In this way, the entire fleet, under Liu Hua's watchful eyes, slowly sailed away from the dock and headed towards its landing target in the Xiangshan area of Taiwan.
The beachhead where the Japanese troops were located in Xiangshan, Taiwan, was a flat beach a few months ago. At this moment, it is covered with steel wire mesh and various wooden barriers. As for the end of the flat beachhead, it was still covered with lush vegetation a few months ago.
The hills of trees are also covered by various reinforced concrete bunkers at this moment, and the vitality of the past can no longer be seen...
In these solid bunkers, a series of light and heavy machine guns emitting cold light stood impressively in the bunker. The black muzzles of the guns directly extended out of the shooting holes. Looking around, you could see that on the beach beyond the horizon,
Each bunker is like a hedgehog covered with thorns, making people shudder under the cover of night.
Looking around, the top of the only highland that protrudes from the ground on the entire beach is undoubtedly the center point of the entire beach defense position. Because it connects and commands dozens of surrounding concrete bunkers, it is the central fortress located at the commanding heights.
In terms of size alone, it is more than three times the size of other ordinary bunkers. As for the defense strength of the fortress, it is even more speechless. Unless a large-caliber artillery hits directly, its thick concrete barrier will not be able to do anything.
.
Of course, in addition to the solid defense, the entire bunker also has a terrifying attack power.
Not only are ten heavy machine guns and countless ammunition placed in Nuo Da's bunker, but more importantly, two rapid-fire cannons are also deployed. It can be said that the firepower possessed by this central fortress alone is...
It is enough to suppress the two-kilometer-wide beach in front of you.
However, as everyone said, no matter how good the fortifications are, if there is no good troops to defend them, they will become as fragile as paper. The fortifications in front of us are an obvious example.
Although there is a whole squadron of more than a hundred little Japs stationed in the entire bunker. However, among these more than a hundred little Japs, except for more than 20 artillerymen who are from field battle-tested troops, all the remaining soldiers are
It was a local garrison force that the Japanese army had just dispatched by stealing and replacing others. As for the battle they were about to face, they were at a loss and had almost no confidence at all.
In a blink of an eye, it was already two o'clock in the morning. In the entire Xiangshan defensive position, except for a few sentries, who endured the constant sleepiness and shuttled back and forth between the bunkers to patrol, almost all the remaining people entered.
Dreamland. In the entire position, except for the sound of waves crashing on the beach, no other sounds could be heard.
And at this moment, after several hours of covert navigation, a fleet carrying an entire army of Taiwan attacking troops had already cut through the waves and appeared on the sea less than three kilometers away from the beach. However, because all the warships, including
All transport ships and ships were under light control, and under the cover of night, the patrols did not discover several warships anchored on the sea a few kilometers away...
"Reporting to the commander, the first group of landing troops have all been put on the small landing craft that the troops have just equipped and are ready to go at any time..." A combat staff officer quickly walked into the warship command room and faced Chen Geng in front of him.
The commander spoke.
"Okay, order the landing troops to set off immediately according to the original plan. At the same time, tell Commander Wang that I will stand here and wait for his success..." Chen Geng ordered with a confident look.
Looking at the combat staff officer who was leaving quickly, Chen Geng put a serious face on the combat map in front of him and spoke to the fleet commander beside him, the naval political commissar Zhang Aiping.
"Political Commissar Zhang, whether the army can successfully land and seize a landing site in the Xiangshan area depends on the navy's naval guns. It will not take a short time to destroy the group of bunkers built by the Japanese army in the upper area. Otherwise, the entire regiment will be destroyed."
If our troops fail, they will be destroyed by the enemy's artillery fire..."
"Old Chen, don't worry. We have the latest bombardment coordinates provided by the special operations division. I promise to blast all these little devils into the sky as soon as possible."
In the central bunker of Xiangshan Mountain, a tired sentry rubbed his eyes, which were almost unable to open, and began to observe the still calm sea in front of him through the lookout port.
Because the entire bunker is located at the commanding heights of the coast, Sentinel Hasegawa Bear can almost see the two-kilometer-long sea in front of him with his naked eyes. Suddenly, the sea that was calm just now suddenly appeared, and in the blink of an eye, vague black shapes appeared.
Dots. Even Hasegawa Bear, who was born in the local garrison force, understood at this moment that these black dots were unusual.
Without the slightest hesitation, he rubbed his eyes again to make sure that he was not blinded. Sentinel Hasegawa Bear directly woke the team leader from his sleep.
"Captain, there is a situation on the sea..."
Although the squad leader felt uncomfortable with his subordinates disturbing his sweet dreams. However, he had a heavy responsibility. After hearing the words "there is a situation", the anger in his heart was immediately suppressed. He picked up the telescope beside him.
, quickly rushed to the lookout point of the bunker and began to observe the calm sea.
You wouldn’t know it if you didn’t look at it, but you would be shocked to see it. On the sea, which is at most two kilometers away from the beach, dozens of landing craft are lined up in a row, rushing towards the beachhead where they are at the fastest speed.
At some point, a fact that I couldn't believe appeared in my mind. The squadron that had been silent for more than a month began to attack, and I became the enemy's first target to be eliminated...
"Baga, what are you doing standing still... Sound the alarm immediately, the enemy has begun to attack, sound the alarm, everyone enters the fighting position..." the astonished squad leader roared loudly.
After seeing the stunned and unresponsive subordinates behind him, the squad leader directly took out the pistol from his waist, pointed it at the lookout, and fired all the bullets...
"Bang bang bang..." A series of clear gunshots can be said to be the best alarm sound in a quiet position. For a moment, the group of bunkers that were dark just now suddenly flashed with dots of lights.
Of course, densely packed soldiers, under the command of commanders at all levels, rushed to the fighting position with weapons on their backs, disheveled clothes and embarrassed faces...
"Artillery, aim at the target, fire immediately, destroy the enemy's landing craft, quickly..." A series of friction sounds of running machines sounded in the bunker, and the rapid-fire cannons, under the control of the little devil artillery, quickly raised their dark holes.
The muzzle of the gun. Immediately following, Cheng Liang's shells were pushed into the barrel by the gunner...
"Fire...boom..." Accompanied by roars, dozens of rapid-fire artillery shells quickly spewed out of the muzzle and were fired at the landing craft two kilometers away...
One second, two seconds... In less than ten seconds, the sound of explosions of artillery shells came from the sea. However, it is a pity, perhaps because the little Japanese artillery has not found the first round of shooting.
Maybe it’s because it’s too difficult to shoot a high-speed landing craft with a rapid-fire cannon. Not only did not a single shell hit the target for dozens of seconds, but it told the squadron on the landing craft that they had been completely exposed to their own guns.
Under the mouth.
Sure enough, at the same time as the explosion of artillery shells, the landing craft that had been in a straight line just now dispersed in an instant. Just like infantry charging, they formed a simple "three-three" formation and quickly rushed towards their target...
"Baga, keep firing, fire. Heavy machine gunners, once the enemy enters the range, fire immediately. You must annihilate them all on the sea. Hit me hard..." The Japanese commander waved the command knife in his hand and shouted loudly.
roared.
However, what the thousands of nervous garrison troops on the position did not expect was that while they were panicking and manipulating their artillery to fire, three destroyers on the sea a few kilometers away also received orders to fire.
Three destroyers, almost 30 guns with a caliber over 100 mm, and even a few main guns with a caliber over 200 mm, the power of their fire coverage is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.
Along with a series of sharp whistling sounds in the air, the first round of 36 large-caliber naval gun shells, as if they had eyes, landed accurately in the middle of the Japanese bunkers in the Xiangshan area.
Suddenly, it was pitch dark just now, except for the Japanese positions that were dotted with flames caused by shelling. Immediately, there were earth-shaking explosions, followed closely by clusters of orange-red fireballs, like fireworks, in the air.
The group of bunkers soared into the sky, illuminating Nuo Da's position brightly...
