Chapter 971 Landing in Japan (2)

Xiao Qiguang's first batch of thirty-nine light hummingbird light aircraft took off from the Zheng He escort aircraft carrier and arrived over the Wuhai thirty minutes later. Although the luminous paint on the Yamato deck indicated the landing runway was obvious, due to the lack of any meteorological guidance and altitude guidance, all relying on the experience of the pilot, only twenty-one hummingbirds landed, and the rest were destroyed or fell into the sea. In order to welcome the second batch of hummingbirds, the first batch of aircraft were pushed into the sea after unloading the hydrogen chloride gas.i^

However, at this time, two assault brigades that had been infiltrated by the airborne also arrived at the dock. Fierce battles along the way caused him to suffer certain losses. In advance, there was also a vanguard battalion of the paratroopers airborne the 7th Division. As the commander-in-chief of the ground forces, Jun Ce, the chief of staff, sent additional troops to board the ship for defense, and began to use the port office and other buildings of the dock to set up defense support points. Large-scale strategic bombing cut off all communications from the Japanese army, and his ground forces suffered heavy losses.

However, on the Yamato, the Japanese sailors and the Marines of the two squadrons of the ship noticed the problem and tried to rush out of the cabin to control the third and fourth decks, but were blocked by the firepower of the Special Forces Commando. The Japanese Marines and the Sailors made several consecutive attacks and finally fell across the deck. Among the narrow colleagues who only accommodated only one person, the anti-injury grenades dropped by the Chinese Expeditionary Force special forces made the Japanese counterattack return ineffective. The Japanese army's persistent counterattack lasted only five minutes, because the dead body quickly blocked the narrow colleagues. The Chinese Expeditionary Force Special Forces Commando used tnt explosives to destroy its cabin door, making it impossible for the Japanese army to open again. At the same time, it closed the exhaust port behind the bridge chimney, and the main air duct exploded through, forming a backward flow. i^

Most of the Japanese Marine Corps were equipped with naval types of Type 38 and Type 99 infantry, especially the 1905 Type 38 rifle naval type was finalized at the Koishikawa Artillery Factory in Tokyo. It is 19 mm shorter than the Army type and the equipment is not much. Most of the Japanese Marine Corps used the army type. It can be said that since the Type 38 rifle, this thing has become a standard rifle for Japanese infantry. The Japanese based on the principle of very economicality, added a dust cover to the foundation of the 30-year-old rifle of the Russo-Japanese War, from World War I to World War II.

However, this type of 38 rifle is indeed simple in structure. It uses the improved Mauser rifle, and the bolt rotary locking machine. It has low recoil during shooting, easy to control, and has high reliability and high accuracy. However, for Japanese Marines fighting within the hull, this broken thing is too long, and there is only a chance to fire one shot, and it can't even shoot one shot, so it is knocked into a sieve by the other party's sieve.

The Japanese sailors and Marines were very unsuitable for this kind of battle to seize ships. In fact, the Chinese Expeditionary Force Special Forces Commando was not very suitable for ship combat. In terms of special forces' professional distinction, ship defense is actually a major major of the Marines, but this major has not yet shown its prominence. The huge gap in combat effectiveness between the two sides was actually caused by the hasty and powerless response of the Japanese Navy sailors and Marines when facing the Chinese Expeditionary Force Special Forces Commando.

On the one hand, the Japanese naval sailors and marines who were well-fighted, had rich combat experience, excellent weapons and equipment, and were prepared for the raid, lacking preparations for ship combat training, especially the battle for control of the hull. The Japanese naval sailors and marines who were backward were almost one-sidedly massacred. The Japanese army, who were in chaos, discovered that the three battle tower bridges of the Yamato were all controlled by the other side, and the special commando of the Chinese Expeditionary Force was actually the special commando of the Chinese Expeditionary Force? The special commando of the Chinese Expeditionary Force actually boarded the Yamato battleship and all controlled the deck?

After the Japanese army quickly reacted, fierce battles occurred between the large and the outer cabin doors of the more than 30 passages leading to the front and rear main decks and the second, third, and fourth decks. The Japanese sailors and marines who were swarming out were even unprepared. The Japanese sailors who were shot were beaten to death with blood and flesh. He Jun directly commanded the four-barrel 25mm anti-aircraft cannons on the No. 2 turret and directly bombarded the passage under the first bridge. More than 100 Japanese Marines crowded in the passage were ready to fight back were blown away, with broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, and the broken internal organs slid down the water blocking nets on both sides of the passage.

Before the Japanese military police stationed in Wu Hai had completed the assembly, they were indiscriminately bombed by US bombers. The main force of the 7th Paratrooper Division began to complete the airborne and quickly captured the commanding heights and forts such as Wanghaishan and Wu Haishan. The Japanese military police were in panic because the main force of the 197th Infantry Regiment was completely wiped out. Although the Navy Marine Corps had more than 5,000 people, they were scattered in eleven nearby garrisons. The troops could not gather quickly in a short time, and there was no way to talk about an effective counterattack. The closest to Wu Hai was the 17th Japanese Division commanded by Shuchang Nakata, but at this moment the 17th Division was only a three-infantry registrar system, with 30% of the troops pieced together with old, weak and remnants.

So, two hours after Wu Hai was attacked, the commander of the Nakata Division had not mobilized his three unsuccessful infantry gangs. All trucks had been transferred to the motor corps before. The railways and roads leading to Wu Hai were also destroyed by the Allied bombings. Therefore, the nearest 17th Division could only go to Wu Hai for reinforcements by hiking. Half of the troops walked, and learned that Chinese paratroopers carried out large-scale airborne in Wu Hai. Nakata was not a fool, and airborne Wu Hai means that a large fleet was about to land behind him. What's the use of his own incomplete division?

Having just retreated for more than ten kilometers, the base camp transferred the imperial edict from Emperor Hirohito, asking the 17th Division and other troops to reinforce Wu Hai at all costs, and fight to the end with the landing Chinese Expeditionary Force, vowing to defeat the enemy and drive it into the sea.

The troops went back and forth until dawn, and the US Navy reconnaissance planes discovered the marching marching ranks of the 17th Division of the Japanese Army. Although the Japanese army immediately adopted strategies such as scattered advances and concealed camouflage, they were still tracked, bombed and strafed by US fighter jets. The troops suffered nearly one-fifth of the losses, and the amount of ammunition and medicine they carried was also lost. Nakata, who was about to cry but not tears, issued a jade-breaking order to the troops.
