The U.S. military's artillery fire seemed to be uninterrupted. No landing ships appeared on the sea for the time being. Various explosions came from behind. They were far away but because they were very dense, Yu Yang could hear them very clearly.
The landing beach in front of him had also been plowed by the Americans. Yu Yang saw a cannonball hit the fortress where he rested last night.
This was the prelude to the American attack. Yu Yang huddled in the tree trunk. There was no danger for him for the time being. The symphony of artillery fire stopped. Yu Yang climbed down from the tree and continued to start the great cause that was unfinished yesterday and continued to weave a set of auspiciousness.
Clothes.
With yesterday's experience, today's speed is much faster. It only took twenty minutes for Yu Yang to make a new cloak that was almost the same as yesterday, and then he also made it on his helmet.
After a moment of camouflage, there was a "buzzing" roar above his head, hundreds of various small black spots appeared on the distant sea, and the American plane had appeared in Yu Yang's field of vision.
middle.
There were many American planes flying over Yu Yang's head one after another, and then back again. Yu Yang couldn't remember how many waves of American planes he had seen. Time was passing rapidly. At six o'clock
Naval artillery bombardment began at 7 o'clock, and aircraft bombing began at 7 o'clock. Now the time has reached 9 o'clock, and small black spots finally appeared on the sea, indicating that the US landing force was about to arrive.
The distance was so far that Yu Yang could not see clearly with the AWM and high-power scope in his hand. However, after waiting for three hours, the battle was finally about to begin. During the Battle of Guadalcanal, the American landing operations could be said to have no organization at all.
It can be said that if the Japanese were not defenseless, it can be said that the Americans would have to pay the price with blood.
According to historical records, the first wave of landing troops began to land at 9:40. Colonel Hunter, the commander of the 5th Marine Regiment, took the lead and rushed to the beach. The troops followed closely and rushed ashore, gradually expanding the beach and moving deeper into the beach.
Development. Subsequently, the beachhead control group went ashore and organized follow-up troops to go ashore in an orderly manner. However, many problems were exposed during the landing.
The coastal control team has too few people and has to use combat troops to unload supplies; and some people are too busy to breathe on the beach, while others have nothing to do, sunbathing on the beach or going to the jungle.
Hitting the bird, if the Japanese had resisted a little, maybe here on Guadalcanal, it would have turned into the second Omaha Beach landing battle.
Time passed little by little, and the U.S. landing fleet began to become more and more obvious in Yu Yang's field of vision. Finally, through the telescope, Yu Yang could clearly see the gun barrels on the U.S. warships. The Americans were no longer close to the beach.
Three kilometers away, at the same time, American warships began to "lay eggs", and landing craft appeared in the sea one after another and began to maneuver toward the beach at high speed.
At nine forty, consistent with the historical time, an American landing craft rushed onto the beach. There were no Japanese on this beach. The only bunker was cleared by Yu Yang. A US military officer was also killed.
The commander of the 5th Marine Regiment, Colonel Hunter, who is recorded in history, jumped directly from the landing craft and rushed to the beach.
But this time he didn't have the little luck in history. As soon as he landed from the landing craft, he was knocked to the ground. Yu Yang only pulled the trigger once and took this guy away directly. With the suppressor on the M4, Yu Yang opened
After the shooting, the Americans had no idea where the shot was fired.
The American voices on the beach were so noisy, including the sound of landing craft engines and the various shouts of lower-level officers, that it was impossible to distinguish a weak gunshot five hundred meters away.
Seeing Colonel Hunter being shot dead, the American soldiers who landed first immediately started shouting: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, hide, hide!"
A group of American soldiers immediately began to look for bunkers and at the same time searched for the location of Yu Yang. However, more soldiers on landing craft in the sea entered the water before reaching the beach, swimming and slowly moving towards the seaside.
Yu Yang fired again. From his commanding position, he had an unobstructed view of the beach. It was almost a moving target. Although it was more than five or six hundred meters away, Yu Yang had already calibrated his gun in advance. Although he could not shoot
Although he was shot to death, he could still take away an American with three or four bullets.
The U.S. military began to suppress fire, with no target at all. However, there were so many U.S. troops landing that Yu Yang could not hit them with one gun. The Americans only succeeded in landing at the cost of the lives of more than a dozen soldiers and began to build a beachhead. However,
The Americans still have not found Yu Yang's location. With the current level of technology and Yu Yang's disguise, it is still very difficult to find Yu Yang.
"Damn it, have you found the sniper's location?" Chris, the temporary commander of the US military beach, asked loudly while hiding behind a bunker.
"Sir, we haven't found any. This sniper should have used a silencer. We don't know the number, but judging from the muzzle of the gun, it should be a person. He shouldn't be very far away from us. His gun is very accurate, and it shouldn't be a sniper.
Rifles, should we cover the one or two hundred meters ahead with fire?" A staff officer looked around with a telescope, but could not find Yu Yang's position.
The Americans roughly locked Yu Yang's direction through the angle of bullet shooting, but the location was never found, and the rifles of this era had very slow firing rates. Only submachine guns had such a rate of fire and ammunition capacity, but submachine guns had a
The fatal flaw is the short range, so the Americans judge that the furthest point of Yuyang should be about 200 to 100 meters away.
"Fire coverage, do the Japanese know our plan? Why is there only one sniper around and no one else?" Chris looked worriedly at the jungle not far ahead. If the Japanese knew about their landing plan, they only need to block it.
Living on the beach, it is impossible for me to reach the beach so smoothly, but if I didn't find it, why are there snipers here?
"boom!……"
At the temporary position on the beachhead of the US military, more than a dozen mortars began to cover a range of 100 to 200 meters ahead. The Americans also called for naval gun support, and several medium-caliber shells hit the two sides in front of Yu Yang.
In the dense forest more than 300 meters away.
After Yu Yang saw the actions of the Americans, he sat motionless in the tree and continued to shoot. Bullets after bullets were like ghost bullets, killing the American soldiers one by one. The American soldiers on the beach were spinning around like headless flies, and they were all moving towards them.
They fled from both sides and left the front area of Yu Yang.
"Charge up, Company A, charge up, charge up, find that damn sniper, kill that bastard!" Seeing that there was no way to do it under the cover of artillery fire, the US commander had no choice but to let the soldiers start charging forward to find the sniper.
In the past few minutes, he had already lost at least thirty of his men, and it seemed that they all died at the hands of one person.
