Chapter 729 Login 6

The fighter roared over the landing site.

Under the wings, hundreds of large ocean-going transport ships have traveled to less than a few kilometers from the coast. Landing boats shuttle back and forth between the coast and the fleet, continuously transporting tens of thousands of soldiers to this strange continent.

The soldiers who came ashore first, like long dragons, quickly penetrated deep with guns on their backs. Countless U.S. troops in front of them were fleeing to the rear, and war eagles roared and dropped bombs beside them.

This is a competition with time!

On the map, two huge arrows are interpolating from the wings of San Francisco and San Diego. Each arrow represents hundreds of thousands of enemies and rolling torrents.

Mount Santa Yez!

This unknown mountain has become the key to the competition between the two sides. The U.S. military can only look at the landing site and sigh if it loses it. Even if it has sea and air advantages, the landing site will still face condescending shell attacks.

"Report."

"Come in."

Jiang Tianxiu opened the door and quickly handed over the latest information: "General Ji Rushan's telegram. Up to now, the fleet has sent a total of 6 divisions ashore, and the heavy equipment is also accelerating the transportation. In addition, Lord Duan Qirui sent a telegram. The second batch of fleet has a total of 797 ships, which has departed from China. It is expected to be 20 days at the latest. You can arrive later. This is the preliminary casualty number calculated an hour ago.

"20 days." Chen Ping sighed secretly. This is the biggest dilemma. It's too far from China to get here. If it hadn't been for the accumulation of a large amount of materials in Hawaii in the past year to save time, I'm afraid that no matter how strong the equipment advantage is, I wouldn't have talked about landing lightly. No wonder the emperor sighed before.

Li Enfu didn't care about this. Instead, he stared at the statistical table and leaned over to the side. After seeing the numbers above, his hanging heart suddenly relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the three-hour beach battle, there were only more than 6,700 casualties, of which only 2,833 were killed. 59 ships, including destroyed minesweepers and landing ship assault boats, were attacked, 6 aircraft, and several trucks and tanks were attacked.

This is an acceptable loss, which is even far better than expected. Originally, the headquarters estimated that it might pay 20,000 to 30,000 people, but now it is a little high on the combat capability of the U.S. military. In addition to the impost of the Baja California Peninsula, it is also estimated that it will land in Santa Barbara. Inadequacy, most of the troops were deployed in the Santa Yezi Mountains behind, creating a military vacuum between the beach and the mountains.

The absolute advantage of firepower coverage allows the troops to pass through the most dangerous open coastal areas smoothly. In addition, they did not expect tanks to appear on the battlefield so quickly, which immediately revitalizes all the landing troops.

"General Ji Rushan has arranged for naval aviation to bomb the railway and the U.S. troops who came to support him. Now there are still four hours before the sun goes down, if."

Chen Ping understands what Jiang Tianxiu means. The air force divisions have initially equipped with the ability of short-distance support at night, but only some old pilots of HNA can carry out night flights. It's not that the flight technology is poor. In fact, the skills of HNA pilots are slightly higher than that of the air force, but it is very dangerous for aircraft carriers to take off and land at night. The existing lights The light-guided landing system was not long ago fully equipped with all aircraft carriers.

What's more, HNA has been too tired these days. Each pilot has to fly at least 4 flights a day, and the highest is even 7 times. They can't stand it, so they must be given enough time to rest.

Now he finally understands why the emperor wants to ask the air force about the large-scale four-engine bomber project. If he can deploy such a bomber regiment offshore, not to mention only three troops to support him, even if there are a few more, he can't get close to the landing site.

Two Yin Shang-class medium-sized motherships are still off the coast of San Diego, and the light motherships are in the Baja California Peninsula. Now there are only four heavy motherships available on Sun Jiugong and Ji Rushan, with a total of 336. The losses in the past few days are less than 320. This aircraft air defense is okay, and I want to bear the whole battle. It is far from enough to block the task.

Is it to let the landing troops change their plans and now build an airstrip in Santa Barbara to take pictures of the air force? As soon as he thought of this, Chen Ping shook his head. Only bombers could fly from Hawaii. Other planes had to be transported. Santa Barbara did not have a good dock, and it would fall into an embarrass that could not be unloaded. If it was connected by a small boat, it was estimated that after all of them arrived, Los Angeles should also get it.

Chen Ping put aside his messy thoughts and asked, "Which army is the main attack on Mount Santa Yez?"

"It is the 1st Marine Division and the 7th Mountain Division that completed landing an hour ago."

"This Sun Jiugong is really willing to spend the capital."

Hearing these two numbers, even Li Enfu was secretly shocked. Needless to say, the first Marine Division was the first army in the Marine Corps to follow the emperor, known as one of the six trump cards of Xinhua. In addition, it was Zhang Shun's direct line. No one dared to delay the ordnance equipment, so it was still the first part of the Army Division to dominate the armored regiment. The combat effectiveness of the team is not inferior to that of the Army's infantry, and even beyond.

The 7th Mountain Division seems strange, but its predecessor was the Sichuan Army, which was incorporated at the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Originally, the Sichuan army was famous for fighting a war. In addition, Sichuan is mountainous, and the soldiers are familiar with mountain survival, so it was formed as a mountain division specializing in fighting in the mountains, which is also the only two mountain light divisions in China.

From this point, it can be seen that the General Staff is very abundant in preparing the plan. You should know that there are countless divisions that can be used to attack the army's hundreds of divisions, but they have chosen the seventh division with light, tenacious and strengthened mountain combat capabilities, indicating that they have long considered that there may be a hard battle in Mount Santa Yez.

What we need to do now is to take down the whole Santa Yez Mountain before the day falls, and then rely on the high ground to block the U.S. reinforcements who will arrive at night. As long as you guard the defense line, the Santa Barbara landing site can safely and boldly continue to deliver troops. As long as you wait until tomorrow afternoon, at least 15 divisions will be able to complete the landing, early the day after tomorrow. All 20 divisions can be transported, and with the investment of heavy equipment, it is impossible for the U.S. military to drive itself back to the sea even if it pulls all the troops on the west coast.

According to the plan, the fleet that sent the soldiers in advance will immediately return to Hawaii tonight, and then transport the 10 divisions waiting for the follow-up, so that the troops will be enough to eat Los Angeles. As long as they take Los Angeles, the third batch of 60 divisions can be put into it immediately.

Taking California means that it is connected with the Mexican battlefield. As for the remaining two states of Oregon and Washington on the west coast, there is no need to be afraid. The terrain of mountains, rivers and forests is indeed conducive to defense, but it is also not conducive to the counterattack of the United States. In the barren land of Nevada and the desert, as long as a small number of troops are sent to defend it, then it can attack Arizona with all its strength. As long as the passage from Arizona to Texas is opened, the west coast of the United States will be completely ruined!

Li Enfu extinguished the cigarette butt and seemed to feel that he was thinking too far. After all, the first step has not been completed, so he got up and smiled and said, "Let's go, Yuanshou. I guess the emperor is already in a hurry."

"No."

Li Enfu was about to leave, but Chen Ping grabbed him and sat down slowly. He put the telegram on the table and pressed his big hand on it: "Wait a minute, without Mount Santa Yezi, landing will not be finished."

===== "choo-choo."

A string of bullets hit the rocks in front of Wang Mingzhang, and immediately splashed countless debris. The sound of bullets passing through made everyone's hair explode.

When the U.S. machine gun turned its head, he could look up and quickly look at the front. The two machine gun positions made of sandbags blocked the passage to the top of the mountain. If it were just these two machine gun positions, there were several more along the way, and there were two trench positions near the top of the mountain.

Although these machine gun positions should not have been built for a long time, and it is very hasty to watch outside, but the location is well chosen. Most of them are in dead corners that cannonballs and planes can't hit. Although Mount Santa Yezi is not high, it may be blown by the sea breeze all year round. The weathering is serious, there are many cliffs, and the trees are relatively lush, so there is nothing the tank can do. Come up and help.

Fortunately, he did not intend to ask tanks to help open the way from the beginning, because they were mountain divisions. Since their formation, they have been wandering in the 100,000 mountains of Bashu. All equipment and weapons need to consider the mountain combat requirements.

" Battalion commander, battalion commander."

The correspondent climbed in front of him quickly with his hands and feet, gasped and said, "The regimental commander said that the division commander asked us to take down this mountain before the sun goes down, otherwise."

"What is it?"

"I'll take you out!"

"Fan old man, I can guarantee this work of hot claws!" As soon as he heard that he couldn't take the top of the mountain, he was about to withdraw himself. Wang Mingzhang almost jumped up. If the correspondent hadn's quick-catching him, he would have become a machine gun target. He was so excited that he even brought out his hometown dialect.

But the excitement turned into excitement. Division Chief Xiong Kewu's order made sense. Although he was only a second lieutenant, the military academy was not in vain for a few years. At least the battlefield situation could be distinguished. Only by taking down this hill with a difficult name and grabbing land for land can the U.S. reinforcements be blocked outside the landing site, otherwise it would not be dark. With the advantage of the air force, the naval guns dare not fire at will in the melee. The time depends on people to block it and I don't know how much I will die!

Since ancient times, few people have had a good end from bottom to top. Even the mountain division is not omnipotent. Fortunately, the army has long received this kind of training, and he also has mountain weapons.

Mortars, recoilless cannons and bazookas have become the favorite equipment of mountain divisions, especially bazookas. It's good for other divisions to match 30 to 50, but he has 20 in a battalion alone. If he can't get them, he is really ashamed of the honor of the soldiers of Chuanxi!

"Class One, go to the left to attract firepower, remember! After listening to my command, I immediately started the gun with a grenade.

"Machine guns, wait until the firepower is diverted, immediately suppress them!"

" Bullet thrower, get ready!"

Soon, several squad leaders who were named were ready. When Wang Mingzhang shouted and fought, the soldiers who attracted fire immediately threw out a large number of grenades, and some of them even put up helmets with branches to lure the U.S. military.

After seeing a large number of "enemies" suddenly appeared on the left, the U.S. machine gunner was so scared that he quickly poured all the bullets. The already prepared machine gunner suddenly caught the opportunity, quickly set up the machine gun, and aimed at the sandbaged position.

Dya, boom, boom.

Machine guns, mortars and grenades hit the hillside with smoke and dust in an end. At this time, several bombers also packed the rocket launchers and crawled back to the side. When the red tail flames penetrated into the sandbag, the two machine gun positions that had just been suppressed by the mountain camp could not be raised into fireballs.

"Leap Forward!"

"Leap Forward!" After seeing that the front machine gun position was destroyed, Wang Mingzhang jumped out of the bunker and pulled out the pistol, kept shouting these two words, and rushed to the top of the mountain.

The leap forward tactic is a brand-new step-by-step propulsion and charge tactic being implemented by the army. Based on the class, each class takes turns to advance. For example, after running about 30 meters, it immediately stops to find cover to suppress the enemy, and cooperate with the machine gun or mortar squad and the blasting squad. The latter needs to be set up immediately when it arrives. Good firepower suppresses the enemy. Similarly, when the enemy is suppressed by the fire point, the latter two classes will immediately cross one and run the same distance, and turn back to cover for the first or third classes, and press them like a snowball.

This charging tactic greatly tests the ability of grass-roots commanders and fire suppression groups, because they not only have to avoid bullets while running, but also quickly find bunkers. The tactical password should be very accurate. A little carelessness will cause the whole class or even the whole company to be lost, so how to organize the firepower and how to play the mountain division. The advantages of a large number of light firepower and the soldier's personal adaptability are very important.

In the exercise, with this kind of tactical advance pioneered by the Nighthawk, a well-trained and tacit team can achieve steady progress even on the complex battlefield where bombs explode and flying bullets.

Wang Mingzhang did not dare to say that his battalion was the best battalion in the army to use leap forward tactics, but at least it was the best in the division. Training in the mountains and fields all year round also allowed the soldiers to exercise their strong climbing ability, even if they attacked from the bottom up.

" Mortar!"

"Four o'clock position, 80 fire!"

"Machine gun set, keep up."

"Use more grenades! Throwing the bullet, wait until the firepower is opened and then pulls closer!"

"Class One, follow me."

"Class three, prepare for class three."

"Crush, rush! Class 3 rushes up, don't stop.

With the development of the leap forward tactics, the whole hillside shouted, and the command was suddenly heard. The poor garrison of the U.S. military was not proficient in the land war. In the past year, the vast majority of veterans have fought out and couldn't find a way to deal with this kind of charge.

Often after suppressing this side, another army rushed out of that side. When the muzzle was transferred and the gun was about to be shot back, more than 20 people on the other side shouted incomprehensible words with guns, and rushed up like a group of desperate bandits.

And the enemy's charging action is extremely skillful. When they turn the muzzle, they can always easily find the bunker to avoid bullets one step in advance.

What scares them more is that in this seemingly chaotic charge, one or two things like meteors often appear from time to time. As long as they are hit, the whole machine gun or artillery position will be finished.

"Boom."

In the position, the U.S. soldiers pulled out the grenade, regardless of whether it was a grenade. The mountain cannons also roared condescendingly. The falling grenades and shells did cause great trouble to the mountain camp. Dozens of soldiers were killed by grenades. This scene also made the machine gunners and mortars of the mountain camp. The soldier's eyes turned red, exerted his strength, and kept suppressing the other party.

Bullets shuttled back and forth, and soldiers on both sides kept rolling down the cliff. The U.S. military also knew that Mount Santa Yezi did not give up easily, but the 7th Mountain Division also gritted its teeth and rushed up with blood. The skillful leap forward tactics not only added a few differences to them, but also made the tough and fearless soldiers of Chuanxi. The energy of death was exerted to the extreme. Often, when a class was accidentally exposed to the machine gun and was seriously injured, the second class continued to rush up on their behalf to attract firepower. When the U.S. military dealt with the second class, the third class rushed over screaming for their lives.

How to aim the machine gun on the left and right like this? In the end, the bullets were not wasted much, but the barrel rotating the bearing was almost unbearable. Just when the U.S. military was in a hurry and didn't know how to deal with it, the disaster was irreparable.

"Guo Wa Zi, I split you!"

As soon as a U.S. soldier picked up a grenade and wanted to throw it, the snowy machete hit his head. Maybe he had never seen such a big knife, so that he was so scared that his hand trembled that the grenade rolled into his trench.

"Boom."

The explosion sounded from the trench, and several U.S. troops around him became unknown ghosts together, while the machete rolled alertly on the ground to avoid the explosion. After the smoke dissipated, he had rushed into the trench with his comrades-in-arms. The big blade danced like a tiger, and in a few times, seven or eight U.S. troops fell to the ground.

Like the famous face-changing trick in Sichuan opera, after chopping the last U.S. military, a double-headed eagle war flag was unfolded by him from there. The wind on the top of the mountain blew the war flag to hunt. When the sunset was about to fall, the whole Santa Barbara landed on the coast as if it was painted gold.

He held a big machete that was still dripping with blood in one hand and a battle flag in the other. He stood on the top of the mountain and fiercely inserted the flag in the highest place. Then his arms were raised high. When the blood dripping along the blade along his arm to the top of Mount Sant's, he suddenly raised his arms and shouted.

"Sichuan Army!"

"Xiongqi!"

Shouting, sweeping through the battlefield like a hurricane, the already tortured U.S. military immediately rushed with its head when it saw the battle flag, and the seventh mountain division generals who were attacking, when they saw the big Sichuan characters in the lower left corner of the battle flag, they became more and more brave.

The double-headed eagle floated on the territory of the United States of America for the first time!

When the two reporters of Sichuan Daily recorded this picture with tears in their eyes, "Xiongqi!" The shouts have resounded through the world.

At 18:00 on the 28th, Mount Santajez changed hands.

The three infantry divisions quickly followed up and deployed everywhere, and the deployment was completed in less than 2 hours. The first line of defense after landing was unbreakable!
