Chapter 14 Small Group Assault

Lieutenant General Toshio Ikeda's order was quickly executed. The large landing site was divided into multiple small pieces. In each small piece, based on battalion-level units, a company is sent to attack at the same time as the Warrior Type I combat mecha.

When the landing troops of the Fusang Empire were scattered into small groups, the shelling of the beach head position stopped. The four destroyers that were originally used for artillery suppression also left the coast and hid outside the gunfire range of the United Nations army on Guam.

On the landing beach, there were soldiers of the Fusang Empire scattered into small groups. They cooperated with their respective armored forces and Warrior Type I combat mecha and began to advance inland from the coconut forest.

The goal is nothing more than to control more landing sites and look forward to the landing of the Fusang Empire's own artillery. Unfortunately, the artillery equipped by the Fusang Empire, even the most new Type 95 155mm self-propelled howitzer has a maximum range of only 40 kilometers. Compared with the U.S. military's M777A1 light 155mm traction howitzer, which uses the "King Arthur Sword" precision missile medicine, there is still a certain gap in range and accuracy.

Relatively speaking, artillery will not become the top priority for the development of weapons in various countries in today's era when precision-made missiles are prevalent. Therefore, the gap between the artillery of the Fusang Empire and the American artillery is not big. In a sense, at least they can fight against each other.

And it seems that Lieutenant General Toshio Ikeda's "small group assault" tactics were successful. The United Nations forces on the island did not send zombies to attack, nor did they use direct crossfire. The artillery still roared, and it seemed that it was intended to use artillery alone to stop the Fuso Imperial army from occupying Guam.

"Perhaps there are not many military personnel on the island who have survived. Until now, the most important thing they have used is artillery. As for the missiles on warships, if you only launch missiles, there won't be many people!"

Lieutenant General Toshio Ikeda's staff provided him with wrong insights. Fortunately, he was unmoved.

"It's hard to say, maybe they are tempting us to go inland. In addition to the fleet, there are also the best ground troops in the world. Compared with them, our soldiers are extremely inexperienced and their advantage is not obvious!"

Toshio Ikeda is sober. He knows that the Yankees are good at fighting. Unlike some media with ulterior motives, American soldiers are described as an army that can only fight a "fing battle". According to China's military law, this is not in line with the "military, the major event of the country." The place of life and death, the way of survival, must not be noticed!"

Just as they were talking, the "small group of assault" troops had begun to take action. They poured into the coconut grove, which was probably the best way to attack in the absence of air and radar reconnaissance.

"Oh, my..."

Although it is operating on the sand, the pace of the Warrior I combat mecha is still heavy. Relatively speaking, the low and thick one looks more like the ancient warriors of the Fusang Empire. The "Storm" 12.7mm mecha in his hand uses an assault rifle, with the muzzle of the gun in his hand facing forward. On the other arm, there is a ceramic-enhanced shield.

Whenever it steps, there is a slurping sound unique to the hydraulic and electrical system. The infantry opened the scattered line around the front and back of the Warrior Type I combat mecha. Even for its close protection, it also relies on the strength of the Warrior Type I combat mecha team.

A battalion is equipped with a Warrior Type I combat mecha team, which is the main force of the attack and the provider of heavy firepower.

"Everyone should be vigilant. We are entering residential areas. If survivors are found, we must provide appropriate diet and medical help. The rule of engagement is that you are allowed to fight back when you encounter an attack!"

Such a warning is repeatedly sounded on the soldiers' communication channels. They completely ignore the attacks they encounter when they move forward.

"Landmine, there is another mine, be careful!"

Landmine, an ancient weapon, can be found in any war. It's just that modern advanced mines have the function of self-destruction. It will not cause a huge hidden danger to the war as in previous wars.

Although there are various problems, everyone must admit that landmines are one of the ancient weapons that still remain young on the battlefield and are still used on a large scale. This is an absolute threat to the infantry in the past.

In the famous battles in history, there are many things that use infantry to go to the minefield. The tragedy made all future generations understand that the minefield was definitely not a joke.

For the mecha infantry wearing "Fusang Imperial Infantry Dove Chest, Thunder is not a big problem. Magnetic detectors, battlefield radar, including various other detection devices, show their skills at this time. The mecha infantry of the Fusang Empire can find mines at a distance of up to 15 meters.

Whether it is arranged in the open air, semi-buried or underground, they can't escape the reconnaissance of the detector equipped with the "infantry dove chest" on their bodies. Not only that, this information can be automatically shared with others.

With a system that can be shared and a system that can quickly transfer files to each other, it is very convenient for combat. Things like the discovery of landmines can be shared by everyone if one person finds them.

On the helmet monitor, the red color indicating danger is immediately used to identify the location of the mine. Immediately, soldiers shot in a kneeling position and used bullets to solve the problem of landmines. This was unimaginable in the past. Because the mines are big and small, the shell is of different materials, and the charge inside also has its own characteristics.

However, for the armor-piercing incendiary bombs fired by the 7.62mm sniper rifle equipped by the Fusang Imperial Mecha Infantry, that is not a problem. Armor-piercing shells can provide enough impact force, and incendiary bombs can provide enough heat. Even if it can't be detonated, it can still break its detonation device, thus invalidating the mine.

Therefore, for the attacking troops walking in the minefield, the mine will not pose any threat. What really poses a threat to them is the M777A1 light 155mm traction howitzer and high-mobility rocket system (HIMARS), which are arranged inland and cannot be suppressed by warships.

In contrast, the latter is more annoying. They have two vehicles that deliver ammunition, and they are completely on-board systems. This allows them to quickly leave the launch site after a volley, and then shoot again when it is not loaded in the ammunition truck.

"Boom..."

Another mine was blown up by ordinary soldiers, and some metal fragments that flew far away fell on the "infantry dove-bred cartilage" of the mecha infantry, making a fine "jingle" sound. For the infantry, this is undoubtedly a pleasant feeling. After all, they are no longer infantry wearing heavy bulletproof vests to survive in the rain of bullets.

They are mecha infantry. I don't know how much better the "infantry dove chest carbage" on their bodies is better than the bulletproof vests of the past. Although the bulletproof facilities equipped by the Fusang Empire for the "infantry dove chest carve" have not reached the advanced level of "** bulletproof vest", but it only thickened Kevlar, strengthened the ceramic sheet, and adopted a special weaving method.

Probably the people of the Fusang Empire respected the warriors in ancient times, so the "infantry dove-bral" they made used the American "dragon scale armor" technology.

It is made of multiple ceramic materials, similar to ancient fish scales. Please note that when I saw it on Baidu, some people said it was lock armor. In fact, it was the result of ignorance of ancient armor. Because the lock armor is also known as ring armor, it is connected by a small iron ring until it is protected. This is completely different concepts of armor with fish scales, which are stacked like fish scales.

This uses fish scale armor technology to place bulletproof ceramic pieces. Compared with the interceptors originally equipped in the United States, its protective ability is higher. According to the company that produces it, this dragon scale armor can defend against 11 attacks of 7.62 mm bullets.

Because of the advertisement, soldiers of the U.S. Army purchased a considerable amount of that kind of equipment. For this reason, the U.S. Army also prohibits soldiers from purchasing personal protective equipment, which has been widely questioned.

At present, the "infantry dove chest carve" equipped by the Fusang Empire for the mecha infantry is exactly using the armor configuration method of fish scale armor. Not only that, there are also some reinforcements on the scales, which further improve the protection efficiency. It can be said that it used to be "dragon scale armor", which is known as twice the protection of the world's best bulletproof vest.

At least the soldiers of the Fusang Empire do not have to worry about the attack of 5.56 mm to 7.62 mm bullets. Under such protection, the fragments of the mines that exploded in the minefield will naturally make them feel happy and slightly excited.

"Our infantry will no longer be the military with the most casualties on the battlefield as in the past!"

While the mecha infantry of the Fusang Empire, who were half squatting underground, straightened up, they were joking on the public channel.

However, on the battlefield, reality is always cruel. Their relaxed voice had not yet fallen. Suddenly, it was just in the ears of the soldiers, constantly annoying them, making them concentrate and alert at any time, reporting the worst news.

"Attention, enemy artillery fire!"

With this shout, all the mecha infantry in the whole minefield fell to the ground. Unlike them, the Warrior I combat mecha almost completely covered itself with the armor on their arms at this time.

As mentioned earlier, this rather thick and strong shield is one of the optional equipment of the Warrior I combat mecha. As a captain, Kikuchi Dance brought such protective equipment to her armor.

At this moment, she manipulated the Warrior I combat mecha, blocked it in front of her with such a device, and began to pray in her heart.

"God bless...!"
