The soldiers in the rear apparently expected this situation as well, and a torrent of bullets, artillery, and shells poured down on the enemy's front line at the landing site.

After all, the national army was preparing for a premeditated attack, and the island army was a passive defense, and its strength and firepower were certainly inferior to the national army, so when the national army suppressed it with all its might, the island army immediately could not hold on, its firepower was sharply reduced, and the intensity of its attack on the river beach also dropped significantly.

The landing soldiers were indeed well-trained, keenly caught the fighters, and began to crawl forward close to the ground.

The selection of the landing site was the result of careful research and development by Cao Guoliang, Wang Teng, and other staff officers, and basically they were all chosen on the bend of the river, and the biggest advantage of this was that it could prevent the enemy's direct fire from being too concentrated.

The reason is very simple, the curve can block at least one side of the attack, the same area, the enemy's firepower will obviously be reduced by half, even if the enemy concentrates on this area, it will not be able to deploy due to the limitations of the area, and the excessive density of troops will lead to more unnecessary casualties.

After all, the artillery fire of the national army is not vegetarian.

In the command post, Cao Guoliang and Wang Teng stood at the observation post, their military uniforms were all soaked, half because the weather was really hot, and the other half was because of nervousness.

"Go up, go up, I think I can get the kayak on the field." Wang Teng said excitedly.

Cao Guoliang also breathed a sigh of relief, the landing soldiers had advanced to a distance of only 100 meters from the enemy's front line, and the soldiers had begun to use the limited terrain to build individual bunkers and improvised trenches, as long as they could have a place to stand, the pincer of the frontal enemy could play a key role.

Waiting for the large forces in the rear to cross the river, a single charge can tear through the enemy's defense line and rush forward.

In order to avoid accidental injury, Cao Guoliang ordered artillery fire to extend and bombard the enemy in depth to prevent the enemy from reinforcing the enemy, and then ordered the raft boat team to start crossing the river.

The kayaks are all rubber inflatable, which is easy to carry and has sufficient quantity, but they are not power-driven, and they cannot stop bullets, so they can only be played on the premise that there is a certain foundation on the opposite shore.

The tidal wave of soldiers began to rush to the surface of the water with kayaks, and all kinds of guns in the trenches swept all the way, and the barrage was densely woven like rain, not seeking to kill the enemy, but begging the enemy not to dare to come forward.

The thousands of soldiers on the landing ground also raised their AK47s in their hands, fired wildly at the enemy's front line, and gradually advanced towards the enemy's front line.

The effect seems to be very obvious, although the enemy is stubbornly resisting, but the firepower is obviously not enough, which gives enough space for the troops crossing the river.

The soldiers were ten in a raft, each with five paddles, and although there was no machine power, the speed of advance was not slow at all, and in less than five minutes, the vanguard actually reached the center of the river.

Just when everyone thought they could successfully cross the river, suddenly, there was an unprovoked movement of the river on the opposite bank, and a black hole with the muzzle of the gun pierced through the soil layer on the surface of the earth.

"Da-da-da-da."

"Da-da-da-da."

For a while, the gunfire was loud, and the bullets swept out, and the impact point was directly facing the river, the little devils were too insidious, and the ambushes were light and heavy machine guns.

Dozens of machine guns swept across, and the bullets broke the raft when it grazed it, and they died when they hit the soldiers, and there was no way to hide, and the soldiers were immediately suffered, and they simply became live targets.

Cao Guoliang and Wang Teng were shocked, it was too late to retreat at this time, so they could only order all the machine guns and artillery fire in the firing circle to immediately turn the muzzle and muzzle of the gun to suppress.

But soon, they found that this was of no avail, the cunning enemy was not a makeshift tunnel, but a dark bunker made of reinforced concrete, and the 75 mountain cannons brought into the jungle could not knock them open at all, and the machine guns were almost like tickling, and could not play any role in suppressing them at all.

Cao Guoliang was immediately dumbfounded, and then howled hoarsely, "retreat".

But it was too late, the river was full of dilapidated rubber boats, most of the soldiers' tattered bodies were floating on the water, only a few were still fluttering in the river, the machine guns of the island army were still sparing no effort to harvest their lives, and even the soldiers who had not yet had time to enter the water fell a large number on the river beach.

The entire surface of the river was instantly dyed red, and the corpses of the soldiers drifted along the water, and the scene was quite tragic.

Cao Guoliang and the others were about to split, but they did not forget their duties, and immediately ordered another landing ground three miles upstream to stop the attack.

The enemy had clearly premeditated and accurately predicted that they would choose to break through the corner, and the situation ahead must be the same.

Fortunately, the landing ground upstream did not go so smoothly, and it was only at the stage where the assault boat troops had just crossed the river, and the kayaks had not yet begun.

As soon as I thought of giving Duan Ruyi's department a reminder, the call over there had already come, and they had also encountered this situation, and the casualties were even worse than them, because they had opened three landing grounds, and the first wave of troops had been close to a division, and the casualties could not be counted, but it was foreseeable that it must be very terrifying.

Cao Guoliang's casualties on their side are easy to count, they have just invested two integrated infantry regiments of the Second Marine Division, with a strength of nearly 5,000, except for more than 1,000 people who have crossed the river, the rest are all on rafts, or have been killed on the previous wave of assault boats, and those who have just successfully landed in the river are less than 1,000 people, that is to say, this round of attacks just now has caused at least about 3,000 casualties.

But the point is that it is impossible to predict whether these two groups of people who have already crossed the river will live or die, and as far as the current situation is concerned, the enemy is obviously not prepared to let them go.

Immediately after packing up the kayak troops, they launched an attack on the troops crossing the river.

The fortress fortifications hidden in the bend can't pose much of a threat to them because of the firing boundary problem, but the enemy in front is just right.

Moreover, they could ignore the machine-gun fire on the other side of the Nationalist army, and only need to hide in the trenches and fire grenades.

The national army is located in a low-lying area, and it is difficult for rifles and machine guns to hit them, but at a distance of more than 100 meters, the grenadiers can easily hit them, especially the grenadiers of the little devils have always been very accurate, and almost every one of them can be smashed into the hiding place of the national army impartially.

Even if the soldiers had already retreated to the initial landing site, where there were their temporary individual bunkers, but so what, in the face of the grenades that rained down, they had no power to fight back, only to be bombed.

Casualties are rising sharply, and in a small area, even individual bunkers cannot withstand the enemy's intensive bombardment.

They still have a choice, that is, to immediately turn the assault boat and charge back in the rain of enemy bullets, but as long as they reach the middle of the river, the dozens of machine guns in the enemy's bunker will be their nightmare, and it can be said that they can cross the river alive.
