Chapter 250: Ghost Bullet
The artillery fire of the US army seemed to be non-stop, and there were no landing ships on the sea for the time being, and various explosions came from the position behind him, far away but because it was very dense, Yu Yang could hear it very clearly.
The landing beach in front of him was also ploughed by the Americans, and Yu Yang saw a shell hit the fortress where he had rested last night.
This is the prelude to the attack of the Americans, Yu Yang curled up in the trunk of the tree, there was no danger here for the time being, the symphony of artillery fire was stopped, Yu Yang climbed down from the tree, continued to start the great business that was not completed yesterday, and continued to weave a set of auspicious clothes.
With yesterday's experience, today's speed is much faster, and it only took twenty minutes for Yu Yang to make a cloak that was almost the same as yesterday, and then disguised his helmet, at this time, there was a "buzzing" roar overhead, and hundreds of various small black dots appeared on the sea in the distance, and the American plane had appeared in Yu Yang's field of vision.
There are a lot of American planes, wave after wave flying over Yu Yang's head, and then returning, Yu Yang can no longer remember how many waves of US planes he has seen, time is passing rapidly, naval artillery bombing began at six o'clock, aircraft bombing began at seven o'clock, and now the time has come to nine o'clock, and small black spots have finally appeared on the sea, and the landing force of the American army is coming.
The distance is very far, Yu Yang can't see clearly with the AM and high-powered sight in his hand, but after waiting for three hours, the battle is finally about to begin, in the battle of Kuah Island, the landing operation of the Americans can be said to have no organization at all, if it is not for the Japanese defenseless, it can be said that the Americans will pay the price of blood.
According to historical records, the first wave of landing troops began to land at 9:40 a.m., and Colonel Hunt, commander of the 5th Marine Regiment, was the first to rush to the beachhead. Subsequently, the beachhead control group went ashore and organized follow-up troops to go ashore in an orderly manner, but many problems were exposed during the landing.
The Coastal Control Group was too undermanned and had to use combat units to unload supplies; If there were people who were busy on the beach, and there were people who had nothing to do, sunbathing on the beach or hunting birds in the jungle, if the Japanese had resisted a little, perhaps here on Kuah Island, it would have turned into a second Omaha beach landing.
Time passed little by little, and the US landing fleet began to become more and more obvious in Yu Yang's field of vision, and finally through the telescope Yu Yang could clearly see the gun barrels on the US warships, the Americans were less than three kilometers away from the beach, and at the same time, the US warships began to "lay eggs", and one after another landing craft appeared in the sea and began to maneuver towards the beach at high speed.
At 9:40 a.m., which coincided with historical time, an American landing craft rushed onto the beach, there were no Japanese on this beach, and the only pillbox was cleared by Yu Yang, and a US military officer, Colonel Hunt, who is also the commander of the Fifth Marine Regiment recorded in history, jumped directly from the landing craft and washed up on the beach.
But this time he didn't have a little luck in history, he just landed on the landing craft, and he was directly knocked to the ground, Yu Yang only pulled the trigger once and took this guy away directly, M4 plus suppressor, after Yu Yang shot, the Americans didn't know where the gun was fired.
The voices of the Americans on the beach were so noisy, the sound of the engines of the landing craft, and the various shouts of the various low-ranking officers, that it was impossible to distinguish a faint gunfire from 500 meters away.
Seeing Colonel Hunt killed, the American soldiers who landed first immediately began to shout: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, cover, cover!" ”
A group of American soldiers immediately began to search for cover, and at the same time searched for Yu Yang's position, while more of the soldiers of the landing craft in the sea entered the water directly before reaching the beach, swimming and slowly moving towards the sea.
Yu Yang shot again, his position was condescending, the beach was unobstructed, almost a moving target, although there was a distance of more than five or six hundred meters, but Yu Yang had already calibrated the gun in advance, although he couldn't shoot and kill, but three or four bullets to take away an American can still do.
The U.S. military began to suppress firepower, and there was no target at all, but the U.S. troops landed in large numbers, and Yu Yang couldn't hit it with a gun, and the Americans only paid for the lives of more than a dozen soldiers, successfully landed, and began to build a beachhead, but the Americans still did not find Yu Yang's location, with the current level of science and technology and Yu Yang's disguise, it is still very difficult to find Yu Yang.
"Damn, did you find the sniper's location?" Chris, the temporary commander of the U.S. beachhead, asked loudly behind a bunker.
"Sir, I didn't find it, this sniper should have used a silencer, we don't know the number, but judging from the muzzle, it should be a person, the distance should not be very far from us, his gun is very accurate, and it shouldn't be a sniper rifle, should we cover the front one or two hundred meters with fire?" A staff officer took a telescope and looked around, but did not find Yu Yang's location.
The Americans roughly locked the direction of Yu Yang through the angle of bullet shooting, but the position has not been found, and the rifle rate of fire in this era is very slow, only submachine guns have this rate of fire and ammunition capacity, but the submachine gun has a fatal disadvantage is that the firing range is short, so the Americans judge that Yu Yang should be about 200 to 100 at the farthest.
"Fire cover, do the Japanese know about our plans? Why is there only one sniper around and no one else? Chris hurriedly looked at the jungle not far ahead, if the Japanese knew their landing plan, they only needed to block the beachhead, they would not have been able to reach the beachhead so smoothly, but if they didn't find it, why did there be snipers here?
"Boom! ……”
At the temporary position of the US beachhead, more than a dozen mortars began to cover the range of 100 to 200 meters in front, and the Americans also called in naval artillery support, and several medium-caliber shells smashed into the dense forest more than 200 or 300 meters in front of Yu Yang.
After Yu Yang saw the movements of the Americans, he nested motionless in the trees and continued to shoot, one bullet after another, killing the American soldiers one by one like ghost bullets, and the American troops on the beachhead spun around like headless flies, and fled to both sides, leaving Yu Yang's front area.
"Rush up, Company A, rush up, rush up, find that damn sniper, take out that bastard!" Seeing that there was no way to cover the artillery fire, the American commander had to let the soldiers start to charge forward to find out the location of the sniper, and in just a few minutes, he had lost at least thirty of his men, and it seemed that they were all dead by one person.
