The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

At this time, Wang Zhibang had already left the division headquarters and ran to the front.The observation post built in the underground permanent fortifications not far from the coastal fortress can withstand the direct bombardment of heavy aerial bombs and large-caliber artillery shells. Regardless of dissuasion, he ventured to observe it himself.

Overhead, the fighter planes of the two sides were entangled together. The old "Flying Shark" model without the advanced weapons and equipment of Zhu Bin's direct lineage was confronted with the unfamiliar advanced fighter plane made by the Yankees, and an old Japanese pilot who was very familiar with the tactics of the Chinese Air Force. In the posture, it is impossible to see the outcome for a while.

However, both sides seem to have no intention of giving way, especially the passive defensive force, which is temporarily weak in number, almost in a two-on-three or three-on-five state.

And the group of guys from the Japanese flying regiment who came out to open the way are all old cooperators. Without the command of early warning aircraft, only relying on the radio communication command and coordination of each squadron, they can actually play a maximum of nine fighters. For the Chinese pilots who joined the two-aircraft formation to face off, it is really not used to it!

The continuous shooting and feeding performance of the American 12.7mm heavy machine guns are not comparable to the Japanese. When they came up, the Flying Shark fleet actually suffered a lot. The proportion and number of shot down were even unprecedented in ten years!

The falling broken fighter planes, the burning wreckage, the white parachute, and the mess all over the place made Wang Zhibang's eyes blaze!These are all the darlings of the aviation forces directly under their group army!Unexpectedly, he couldn't win against the little devil, and he paid such a big loss, it really embarrassed the old 29th Army!

Back then, the 29th Army fought bloody little devils with their flesh and blood on the Great Wall, swung a big blade and hacked to death so many people.How heroic, how carefree dripping!As an honorary army, they are now living a good life and using good equipment. Could it be that they won't fight anymore?

Seeing the approaching troop carriers of the Japanese army, some old-fashioned destroyers of the thousand-ton class began to bombard the beachhead with their naval guns.More "Kyushu Maru"-type landing ships caught in it slowly arched forward, and began to release people, small boats, and even tank battlefield vehicles in the shallow water area!

Wang Zhibang's eyebrows were twisted into a knot!Next to it, the head of the beach guards couldn't help but asked softly: "Master, why don't we let the artillery beat down these oriental bastards first?"

The best way to land on the beach is when the ship is docked to unload people and equipment, and there is a sudden heavy artillery bombardment, and they don't run away!

Wang Zhibang didn't look back, he put down the binoculars, his eyes flickered for a while.He waved his hand and said, "No hurry! Since you lost the upper hand, let them go and let them have a good time. Let's see how many tricks the little devil still has to make a fortune! Hmph, our territory is not something that anyone can play around with." of!"

The leader nodded and didn't mention it.He could see that the teacher seat was really angry because he was suddenly broken through. In the final analysis, he was dereliction of duty.To deal with it hastily and hastily will be inferior.Fortunately, there is no excessive accusation from the legion now, that is, it has given the opportunity to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds.Teacher Zuo wants to make up for it with a big contribution!

When the order was passed on, the defenders, who were about to lose their strength, had to hold their breath for a while, and watched more and more Japanese troops staring at the outside from the permanent fortifications!

The landing ships sent by the Japanese army were very cunning, and they refused to place them in front of a battlefield. Not to mention, they opened up a large area on the front line of Dagukou, which was tens of kilometers wide, and at the same time, they were still on the beaches of Tuhe River and Daqing River on the north side. Also disperse a troop in the past.The horns of each other support each other, making it difficult to judge the key defense for a while, and it looks very good.

As the main force of the landing, it is not carried by ordinary warships, but on the basis of the "Shenzhou Maru" quasi-aircraft carrier and amphibious assault ship it secretly developed.Reduce the size, carrying capacity, displacement, and simplify the single-function "Kyushu Maru" type [-]-ton amphibious landing ship.

This kind of warship seems to be a reduced container transport ship from the appearance, but it uses the power system of the warship, which can reach a speed of more than 20 knots, and can also eject seaplanes.

The wide transport compartment can carry 20-25 landing craft, which can be unloaded from both sides of the ship at the same time, and can transport up to a brigade of 1000 soldiers at one time, or three tank squadrons.It's just that with such a large tonnage, the Japanese are unable to make a flat-headed ship that can directly land on the beach, so they can't directly wash the ship into the shallows like the Chinese navy, and drive the personnel tanks directly to swim ashore.Can only be unloaded on water.

Even so, the Japanese think this is something like a mysterious killer!Usually not exposed.After the secret construction was successful, a bunch of surfaces were disguised as freighters, and they drove to the coastal waters of China evasively. Usually, they are mixed with freighters in the port, and it is impossible to see the truth. Now when it comes to application, they will reveal their true colors!

A total of ten "Kyushu Maru", plus a dozen small transport ships and bulk carriers, pirated container ships and other fast ships that can carry landing craft, were unloaded together. After batching more than a dozen ships in a mixed formation, increase the horsepower and hit the beach!

On the surface, there are not many defensive facilities on Tanggu Beach. As a very busy port in North China, cargo ships from various countries and countries come in and out frequently on weekdays.

Such an environment naturally gave the Japanese army an opportunity to take advantage of it, and the battle started for almost an hour. Except for the continuous arrival of air force reinforcements, it seemed that the surrounding army was suppressed and there was no sign of coming up. This reassured the attacking Japanese troops!

But if you don't have any, you're lying!When the Japanese bombers dived and dropped bombs, when the field of vision was temporarily widened and clear, the fort became active again, and various coastal defense guns of about 150 meters were condescending and lowered. Six or seven landing craft were directly sunk and injured. The surviving Japanese army was very shocked. He entered the water fiercely and swam to the beach with his weapon on his shoulders.That kind of brave posture is as if their ancestors dared to swim across the Tsushima Strait and invade North Korea with two gourds tied around their waists...

After more than ten minutes of confrontation, the surviving landing craft finally succeeded in grabbing the beach. Hundreds of Japanese death squads wore glass fiber mixed nylon body armor copied by Yankees, holding Thompson submachine guns and [-] large caps, and [-]-type light machine guns in their hands. He and Browning water-cooled heavy machine guns waded onto the sandy beach one after another, dispersed in the form of teams, and set up various attack points on the spot.Shooting towards the distant fort that was submerged in the explosion fireworks from time to time, some of the strong ones moved forward with clamped steel shields to cover the landing of large-caliber mortars and light infantry guns. The efficiency was extremely high and the performance was orderly!

Inside the fort, the dense defensive array of heavy machine guns remained silent.Except for the intermittent firing of scattered large-caliber guns, it seems that the one-kilometer-deep beachhead is not worth moving.

Wang Zhibang watched the Japanese army's actions with gloomy and cold eyes.It's not that he doesn't want to fight, but that he doesn't think it's enough!

The second batch of landing craft was put down smoothly, and more than half of them had successfully flushed the beach. When they were about to unload, some heavy machine guns in the fort opened fire! The 7.62mm steel-cored heavy bullets swept across the battlefield like a torrential rain, with an average density of at least five per kilometer across the battlefield.Sweeping almost uninterruptedly, the sand was splashed on the beach, and the exposed Japanese army was caught off guard. Dozens of people were killed or injured in an instant!

The Japanese army was not surprised but happy!They had long felt that it was a little strange that they had not encountered any blocking forces, and that they could not see the situation of the fort clearly, so a rash attack was likely to be attacked in a concentrated manner.Now that the firepower is exposed, we can concentrate on blocking and focus on penetration!

The heavy machine gun with the steel plate shield opened fire immediately!First time with a Yankee belt machine gun.Pulling the trigger can shoot continuously without letting go, although it is an old guy who is almost fucking 30 years old.But the performance is awesome---Browning was tested for the U.S. Army at the time, and it can launch such an outrageous performance for 48 minutes and 12 seconds in a row, which made the little devils' jaws drop in surprise!

So the strips of 250 rounds of ammunition became like invincible treasures, and the howling bullets shot towards the firing holes of the fort in pieces!After the [-]-type infantry gun capable of flat shooting was assembled, the grenade was selected to fire immediately, which suppressed the opponent for a while!

The firepower of the turret fell silent a little, and suddenly several 37mm close-in anti-aircraft guns appeared from several other places!Scattered and rapid shooting blasted the beachhead into small clusters of fireworks one after another.Several too obvious firepower points were blown up all at once!

The Japanese army had obviously been prepared for a long time, and the small cannons and silent heavy machine guns they dragged up also fired. Among them, their Type [-] heavy machine gun, which was used as a heavy weapon, had excellent ballistic performance, high rate of fire, and range.Join the ranks of blocking, aim at the gun position and use it as a long-range sniper rifle.

Not to mention, this beating suppressed those attacking points.With the landing craft of the second wave in place, the Japanese army immediately had a new force, advancing forward to form an advancing sequence with a distance of 200 meters, and then the first batch of reserve troops who had almost rested rushed out of the temporarily dug bunker and began to face the enemy. Fort charge!

The artillery on the destroyers and landing ships at sea began to cover with barrage!Taking the obvious and immovable fort as the attack point, the dense artillery shells slammed down like a hailstorm, as if they were going to blow up the entire fort like a hill into powder!

It's just that their largest artillery is only 120mm, or the old short-barreled rapid-fire gun, which is much less powerful than the new 105mm gun. It looks quite lively, and its lethality...hehe.

However, this does not seem to be a problem?You know, there are at least [-] fighters in the sky that can provide low-altitude support, ten of them can be spread evenly per kilometer, and they can provide at least several tons of aerial bombs in total. Isn't that more powerful than small artillery shells?

The 500-meter beachhead, rushing past!There are few deer villages, and the flat beach looks dangerous. The small and nimble Japanese soldiers spread out, dodging from left to right and changing their direction. The sparse heavy machine guns can only deal with one or two, and fall quickly You can dodge it by lying down when you fall, which is very easy and convenient!

But the opponent is obviously not so easy to deal with, immediately join the shooting ranks with rifles!Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bullets, it seems that there must be a density of at least a thousand people in order to block a terrain with a width of three kilometers!

The bullets are dense!It is at least five or six times larger than when the Japanese army built it with 1939 large!But this is not unexpected. Who in the Kwantung Army today does not know that their enemies all use a semi-automatic rifle that can be fired in bursts? !Two m10 rifles, with [-] rounds of magazines, can suppress a squad of Japanese soldiers. The speed and accuracy are amazing and even more enviable!

The Japanese army is too poor!Almost all of them use single-shot Meiji 38-style rifles, not to mention that a single soldier can carry at most [-] rounds of ammunition at a time, and the return is insufficient. The concept of precision shooting is not wrong, but it can be compared with the number of at least [-] rounds for an opponent. ... The difference between this shit is too big!

Many of the soldiers who rushed to the beach were veterans who had fought on the front line.I have personally experienced the pain of being overwhelmed by dense bullets, and this time I met them again. I was delighted to find that the density of the opponent was not enough. This is exactly what the intelligence said-they are not prepared enough, and the troops are not enough!

For the front of the fort defense, there is only one battalion of troops at most!

The regimental captain commanding the landing was very determined.Look at the third batch of troops rushing up, waving to let the second wave of troops follow up, and the first wave continues to get up and rush forward!

The naval artillery bombardment began to extend, mainly because they were afraid of killing their own people, and the fighter jets made up their positions and swooped across the fort, dropping bombs and machine guns!

200 meters!The first wave of troops rushed!It is a platform that rises abruptly. The rock base and mixed sand layer have been impacted by waves for countless years, forming a naturally formed vertical cliff with a height of four to five meters.While blocking the way forward, it also blocks the blocking firepower above, which can give the exhausted attacking troops a short respite.

More than 200 Japanese soldiers rushed under the cliff, panting against the mottled and uneven sand wall.Regardless of fatigue, the captains and squadron leaders carefully checked the left and right gaps that had been bombarded by naval guns and aerial bombs, looking for an opportunity to rush up.

But every time they probed, they would be shrunk back by the blocked heavy machine gun fire and semi-automatic rifle fire. The collapsed slope ranging in width from three to five meters was more than ten meters long, and the fluffy and broken soil layer would trap their short legs. .It's not so easy to be a living target!

"Sao Desi Nai! Got it!" The team leader suddenly realized!I'm afraid this is one of the reasons why the defenders dared not to arrange steel deer villages and beachhead obstacles!

Such a natural obstacle.It is much cheaper than expensive steel structures. As long as the soldiers are concentrated in the fortress, it is very simple and convenient to shoot the enemy troops that come out. Hehe, the plan is very good!However, it is difficult for the imperial warriors!

Of course not all of them are like that.The wide front of the attack, some gentle places are also blocked by various steel x-frames blocking the armored tanks, it is not easy to rush over, and the light tanks that go ashore are quite afraid of this---who doesn't know the Chinese soldiers There are many vicious and terrible anti-tank weapons in your hands!

There was another round of dive-bombing, and the first wave of Japanese troops rushed to the gap.While shooting with a light machine gun, he crossed the gap and climbed up to the top of the platform with his hands and feet. In front of him, he could see a long slope at a glance. The artificial giant fortress standing upright like a giant beast, which was as thick as seven or eight The thick gun barrel is clearly visible in the arc-shaped cracked shooting hole under the roof of the meter!

The explosion of the aerial bomb blasted up smoke and dust more than 100 meters high, submerging the fort, and the whistling dust even blew to the edge of the cliff, almost knocking down the Japanese army coming up!But they are not panic, because the defenders may not be shocked to death and it will be difficult to shoot!

"Charge!" None of the officers who had suffered enough from the sniper tactics wielded swords and white gloves. They were dressed almost like soldiers, holding Thompson submachine guns in their hands and firing and shouting. Hundreds of them cheered and shouted. The legs ran wildly, and after only five or sixty meters, "big mushrooms" with a diameter of about two meters suddenly protruded from the ground behind them!

The ground that was blasted back and forth by aerial bombs and shells is actually moving!In the blink of an eye, it rises to a height of two meters!The upper half is almost a thick permanent structure, and more than half a meter above the ground are narrow and thin shooting holes, which are arranged in a staggered ring, and suddenly spew out continuous flames!

A series of high-temperature flames more than 20 meters long passed by, followed by a dense rain of bullets. Hundreds of Japanese soldiers were attacked by the enemy, and they were caught off guard and burned to death. Most of them were killed!The surviving ones were looking for a place to hide, but they were shocked to find that the sandy soil on the platform was hard. Although there were bomb craters, they could not completely cover their figures, but the precise shooting from the opposite side suddenly rushed, and hundreds of people were in a hurry. It became a mutilated dead body, spreading on the battlefield braving the curling green smoke!

All destroyed!

As soon as the firepower of the "big mushroom" in the jagged array of canines was withdrawn, it quickly sank back, and the vibrating sand immediately covered the gaps, and no traces could be seen on the surface.

When the second wave of Japanese soldiers rushed up and looked up, there were dead people everywhere!How did it happen?have no idea!

Wang Zhibang nodded in satisfaction. He really deserves to be the defense line designed by the unpredictable Boss Zhu!This sinister and vicious remote control bunker is simply broken, and its power is really great!

Excavate passages at a depth of more than ten meters underground, which cannot be found by sea ground attack troops and aerial reconnaissance, and then use prefabricated panels to build liftable blockhouses, embedded in strong reinforced concrete rings, which are difficult to destroy regardless of aerial bombs or artillery shells. , high-power motors ensure fast and unimpeded lifting, and the heavy machine guns and flamethrowers installed in each are suitable for far and near, and no one needs to take risks inside, and it is completely controlled by the main battery or remote command center.

There seems to be no preparations for the Tanggu coastal defense line. I don’t know how many such things are dotted around. The underground is a super-long passage dug out by a shield boring machine and can run a train. It can extend from Tanggu to Tianjin. Such a fortification Who could have done it except Zhu Bin?Moreover, it is completely constructed underground, and the investigation is unclear!

The second wave of Japanese troops failed to find out the problem, and continued to attack under the cover of artillery fire and fighter planes. They were wiped out, and none of them could penetrate within 100 meters.The Japanese fighter planes keenly noticed this situation, and just about to issue an alarm, they suddenly discovered that the entire battlefield, including the radio communication at sea, was blocked! (To be continued..)
