Chapter 671: The Brandenburg Special Division Successfully Landed
Although now the German amphibious landing force, under their powerful naval and air bombardment, has basically completely destroyed the British defensive points deployed on the beachhead, as well as the British shore artillery and artillery positions. ()
However, for the sake of safety, the German amphibious landing force also followed the instructions given by Chen Yanlong, before each attack on an island; They must first occupy another island near this island, and arrange their artillery positions on the island to deal with the artillery positions of the island where they are going to land, so as to suppress the opponent's artillery counterattack.
Of course, if we do not find a suitable nearby island for artillery positions, then a strong aircraft carrier fleet and aviation units will be used to bomb and support the landing operation of the amphibious landing force.
Moreover, the radio transceivers carried by the amphibious landing force are all the latest products, and they have very good waterproof performance.
It allowed the German landing force to communicate with the navy, the air force, and the general operational command in the port of Ceuta anytime and anywhere.
Of course, the aircraft carrier fleets that Chen Yanlong has exchanged are equipped with radars, which can not only detect the appearance of the British and American aircraft carrier fleets, but also the appearance of the British and American air forces.
Although many of the Brandenburg Special Divisions were recruits with no combat experience, the Brandenburg Special Division, which was established by the commander-in-chief, Captain Theodor von Shipper, was still a little stronger than the average British and American Marine Corps recruits after almost half a year of strong training.
Moreover, when they arrived at the port of Ceuta to participate in the Battle of the English Channel, they had undergone anti-tank combat training and large-scale amphibious landing combat training.
So when they start fighting, although they are also relatively nervous, they still have combat power.
"Our bombing is still going on! I think that this time those British troops in the English Channel will definitely be bombed and suffer heavy casualties! ”
"Of course! This is all due to our great Führer! If it had not been for the large number of new and powerful missiles and air force he dispatched to cooperate with the navy to carry out large-scale bombing for several hours, I am afraid that we would have suffered many casualties in the landing operation! ”
"Yes! If we hadn't seized the sea and air supremacy of the British army first, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to launch an amphibious landing operation smoothly! ”
"That's it! Don't talk too much, just wait for a good fight! Don't let down the great support that our Führer has given you! ”
"That's right! You see, we also have so many troop transport landing craft and tank landing craft in this landing operation! And with the support of such a huge aircraft carrier fleet, if we don't perform a little better, I'm afraid we will really lose face of our Brandenburg special division, and in the future, in front of other branches of the military, we really can't raise our heads! The officers and men of the Brandenburg Special Division, who were heading to the English Channel to prepare for an amphibious landing operation, were talking a lot in order to ease their tension and uneasiness.
Of course, there were many officers and men praying and staring intently at the English Channel, which was getting closer and closer to them, ready to fight at any moment.
"That's it! We've reached the beachhead of the English Channel, everyone, rush ashore! Fast! ”
After a short while, a colonel German officer took the lead with a submachine gun in his hand, and while rushing towards the English Channel that had been reached, he shouted the order to charge the troops behind him.
So many officers and men, under the supervision of their commanders, summoned up the courage to land on the beachhead abandoned by the British, and the first troops to land were also rushing towards the defensive positions of the British, and the scattered battle series of strongholds.
At the same time, at the bridgehead they occupied, T-54 tanks were also menacingly driven out of the tank landing craft and carried out the landing.
However, the vanguard of the Brandenburg Special Division, which was the first to rush to the British beachhead, was surprised to find that most of the British defensive positions were bombed and almost in ruins, and many British corpses that had been killed could be seen there, and even if they were not dead, they were seriously wounded and collapsed to the side waiting for death to come.
Of course, there was also a relatively sporadic resistance, because there was still a small part of the British army that had not yet suffered casualties, and was stealthily attacking the Brandenburg Special Forces Division, which had just completed the landing operation.
However, these sneak attack battles, which did not have much lethality, were soon completely suppressed by more and more officers and men of the Brandenburg Special Division, which had successfully landed, and were eliminated at designated points.
"Let's move quickly, and immediately take full control of the beachhead here, and clean it up!"
"We're going to take the entire English Channel in one day!"
"Our speed must not be slower than that of the 1st Airborne Division, and the bad credit will be taken up by them!"
After gradually clearing the British stronghold on the beachhead, LeBron James, who was promoted from regiment commander to division commander by Chen Yanlong, and division commander Ernst also immediately roared loudly at those slow troops.
Because at this moment, he had already seen that the vanguard airborne troops of the 1st Airborne Division were also flying over his head in their helicopter flight team.
So he was very anxious, he didn't want the important credit of the LinkedIn Channel to be occupied by the 1st Airborne Division.
After scolding the Brandenburg Special Forces Division for their slow progress, division commander LeBron James and division commander Ernst also went to direct their troops to speed up the landing of their tank units and artillery units.
