"Boom -" the main gun of the battleship Beijing fired, thick tongues of flame spurted out from the muzzle, and then a huge fireball flew towards the Coco Fortress. After the main gun of the battleship Beijing, there were other secondary guns
Various guns from the battleships joined in one after another. Suddenly, from Bai Liusu's perspective, he saw that the space between the Beijing Mobile Fleet and Guadalcanal was instantly connected by hundreds of artillery shells. The Beijing Mobile Fleet
The smoke here is thick, tongues of fire are spitting out, and a huge fireball explodes on Guadalcanal. Then, the fireball turns into a huge mushroom cloud. On top of the mushroom cloud, there are some rocks, trees and even human bodies jolting, in the huge explosion.
, scattered in all directions.
"The rain has become lighter again," Zhang Liang suddenly said to her.
"God help our army!" Bai Liusuyan put down the telescope, looked at the time, and then said to Zhang Liang: "Call Zhou Qincai and ask if they are ready." Zhang Liang nodded, retracted, and picked up the phone.
When the Beijing mobile fleet started firing, in front of them, a frigate and three Swordfish missile speedboats escorted five small landing craft and were speeding towards the Coco Fortress. This was the landing vanguard force responsible for seizing the beach. Bai Liusu chose
The biggest reason why Coco Fortress is the landing point is that there is a ready-made airport not far from Coco Fortress. In addition, considering that the Japanese army laid minefields in the coastal areas of Guadalcanal, relatively speaking, Coco Fortress is
A landing site with good conditions. As long as the sneak attack succeeds, it will be easier to go down. However, her decision was clearly opposed by General Wainwright IV, the supreme commander of the US-Australia coalition. The Americans did not know Bai Liusu
He already had a complete defense map of the Japanese troops on Guadalcanal, so he was very puzzled by her decision. In his opinion, since it was a sneak attack, he should choose to land in a place without Japanese troops garrison, and then send out large forces after establishing a beachhead.
Only through infiltration can we act as a surprise force and catch the Japanese army by surprise. If we choose to land at Coco Fortress, which is heavily guarded by the Japanese army, then if we give up the sneak attack and carry out a strong attack, wouldn't the painstaking preparations for the sneak attack be in vain?
? He was originally very dissatisfied with having to obey the command of a woman, and Bai Liusu's behavior in his opinion was a sign of ignorance of military affairs. Therefore, when Bai Liusu asked his people to serve as the vanguard force for the beach, he
He clearly refused.
The reason why Bai Liusu wanted the U.S.-Australian coalition to fire the first shot of the landing was not because he had the dirty intention of using the Americans and Australians as cannon fodder, but because they had been stationed on Guadalcanal before and were more familiar with the terrain than the student army.
Her temper was originally the type of people who respect others as much as they respect me. After being rejected by Wainwright IV, she said nothing on the surface, but in her heart she regarded the US-Australia coalition forces as outsiders and no longer counted on them.
.
Zhang Liang quickly put down the phone and reported to her, saying that Captain Zhou and the others were ready to launch a beachfront operation at any time.
"Very good!" Gu Lianyun said: "Then everything goes according to plan!"
"Yes!" Zhang Liang replied, then turned around and picked up the phone and started calling various troops.
According to the original plan, after Zhou Qincai's troops complete the beaching, the aircraft carrier fleet will dispatch fighter planes to provide them with cover, and the French Volunteer Army will be the first echelon of the main force to land. After that, the French Volunteer Army will undertake the task of expanding the landing site.
With the support of the French army, they launched an attack to the rear of the Coco Fortress. At the same time, the follow-up troops of the main force landed in stages and followed the French volunteers to complete full control of the landing site. Bai Liusu was originally worried that the naval aviation troops would not be able to take off due to bad weather, causing the French
The Volunteer Army's operations were hampered, but now, as the weather improved, she no longer had such worries, and she felt confident that victory was within her grasp.
Twenty minutes later, as the artillery fire of the Beijing mobile fleet began to extend into the distance, five landing craft carrying more than a thousand students from Zhou Qincai's department began to rush towards the beach. At the same time, the artillery on the Japanese position in Coco Fortress finally rang out.
.
Fire flashed on the Japanese army position in Coco Fortress, and the rumbling sound of artillery sounded. Bai Liusu's heart couldn't help but tighten. Then, she listened attentively, and after judging that the sound of the artillery fire was not the muffled thunder of the fortress cannon, she
I felt relieved, knowing that the guide to Guadalcanal was completed.
At this moment, in her telescope, the Coco Fortress, which was full of rubble and ruins, seemed to suddenly come to life, and khaki and grass-green figures began to appear. The khaki figures were the Japanese, while the grass-green figures were the National Liberation Army.
South Sea monkeys. They were running among the rubble and rubble, firing their guns, and behind them, the muzzles of mountain cannons were exposed and began to pour shells. However, compared to fortress cannons, these mountain cannons were
The attack power was much weaker, and even if they were landing ships, they would not be able to cause serious damage. Amidst the huge waves and fireworks, the five landing ships rushed towards the shoal in one go, and then, under the tug-of-war of the frigates and Swordfish missile speedboats,
The sound of machine guns exploded, and the deck in front of the landing ship was heavily photographed. Immediately, five Platypus tanks rushed into the waist-deep water with black smoke. Behind the Platypus tanks were cadets in camouflage military uniforms. They were high
Shouting loudly, he waded into the water and rushed to the beach...
The five landing ships are all independent products of Xuebing Army. The biggest difference between them and the landing ships of other countries today is that they have extremely strong armor protection capabilities and have a ten-ton ship crane. Ten-ton
The existence of a large ship crane makes it suitable for carrying Platypus tanks. Each landing ship carries a Platypus, which greatly improves the landing force's ability to attack difficult problems.
The smoke of gunpowder began to obscure Bai Liusu's sight, and the students who followed the platypus charge began to fall into the sea water frequently. The bombardment of the Beijing mobile fleet did destroy all the Japanese bunkers and fortresses, but it failed.
Destroy all those bunkers. These bunkers have become the biggest obstacle to Zhou Qincai's department.
"Bazooka!" Zhou Qincai shouted loudly as he watched his brothers fall into the seawater one after another, his eyes red.
"Coming!" A student responded, and then pulled the trigger of the rocket launcher carried by the arrow. "Whoosh!" Flames spurted out, and a fire dragon shot out. The next moment, there was a violent explosion, and the top of the bunker was lifted.
, the Japanese inside were torn to pieces together with the machine guns.
"Come on!" Zhou Qincai waved his gun and shouted, and the trainees screamed and quickened their pace. But at this moment, another pile of gravel spurted out tongues of fire on the beach. Several trainees were caught off guard and had only time.
He let out a scream and fell into the sea water. This time, without Zhou Qincai's command, the rocket launcher immediately retaliated. In this repeated battle, Zhou Qincai's troops moved up the beach little by little. Finally, someone climbed up
