Chapter 19: The Battle of Majuro (7)

Facing the rising sun, a total of 144 Hellfire heavy carrier-based bombers from eight squadrons of four aircraft carriers of the Tang Army, escorted by 144 Raptor heavy carrier-based fighters of the same eight squadrons, flew over Majuro Atoll at 5:43 a.m.

"Firebird, it looks like we're late, the show has already begun, it's over!"

"Thunderbird, any battle is full of variables, and it's a common thing that Jihua can't catch up with changes!"

Zhao Changzhi and Li Jianhui, who were in charge of bringing in the fighter group and bomber group respectively, talked to each other, and the latter immediately called the call channel of the 1st Marine Division.

"Firebird calls Tyrannosaurus rex, we are about to be in the air, please answer when you hear it, over!"

"Tyrannosaurus rex heard, firebird has been found, over!"

"Firebird is about to launch an aerial attack, please ask the Tyrannosaurus Rex to provide the necessary ground guidance, over!"

"The red attack arrows on the ground will guide you to smash the enemy, over!"

"Firebird understands! Complete! ”

After Li Jianhui and the Tyrannosaurus Rex confirmed the bombing target, he immediately issued an operational order to the eight Hellfire bomber squadrons. After receiving the order, each bomber squadron lowered its altitude to look for its own bombing target.

At the same time, Zhao Changzhi, who was on an escort mission, saw that there was nothing wrong with them, and immediately complained.

"Tyrannosaurus rex, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the Thunderbird! Complete! ”

"Call the Thunderbirds, the front-line combat units request air support, over!"

"Alright, Thunderbird received, happy to serve you, please provide accurate coordinates guidance. Complete! ”

"The Tyrannosaurus Rex understood that 1-4-2 on Heights 5 had encountered the Japanese and asked the Thunderbird to send a team to support. Heights 3-1-1 were reinforced by a large number of Japanese troops. Ask the Thunderbirds to send a squadron of reinforcements! ”

"Thunderbird understands and is on its way!"

"Attention all squadrons, divide into squads to participate in ground attack operations without tasks, and don't hurt your own people!"

"The first squadron understands!"

"The second squadron understands!"

……

Zhao Changzhi was very happy when he received the task, and immediately assigned a team and a squadron of Raptor ships to go to the target indication area to assist in the battle. The other squadrons dispersed, each looking for a Japanese stronghold to attack.

The 18 Hellfire ships of the 1st Squadron of the Firebird carried out high-speed dive bombardment at a wide angle of 70 degrees towards the 2-2-1 area of the No. 1 Heights, where the Japanese were stockpiling oil and ammunition depots. It is the key target of the Tang Army.

"Bah...... Creak...... Babble......"

The hellfire screamed with a soul-destroying sound, causing the Japanese officers and soldiers guarding the oil and ammunition depots to look into the sky.

"It's an enemy plane!"

The Hellfire was diving too fast, and the Japanese had just discovered that it was an enemy aircraft. Before they could react, one aerial bomb after another smashed into the perimeter of their position.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

With a loud thunderbolt on a sunny day, an aerial bomb weighing 500 kilograms exploded, and a great earthquake trembled in an instant. Rocks fall. The dust was flying, and huge pillars of smoke hundreds of meters high rose into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, within a radius of three meters from the center of the explosion where the aerial bomb landed, a concrete fortification up to two meters thick was instantly blasted into a huge hole, several meters deep. The blast wave of the explosion spread out in all directions, and it was a liliang that crushed everything, like the center of a typhoon passing through, and all the rocks and trees were razed to the ground. People and animals were torn to pieces, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

A 500-kilogram aerial bomb is enough to destroy everything within a radius of 100 meters. What's more, the eighteen Hellfire of the 1st Firebird Squadron dropped 36 500-kilogram aerial bombs at once, and the violent explosion was like an eight-magnitude earthquake, and the entire island of Daipla trembled violently in the sea of fire.

Although the Japanese army built it in a cave for the safety of the oil depot, a series of violent explosions caused a landslide, and the cave entrance and more than 100 Japanese troops were completely buried. The inside of the oil depot also collapsed, with boulders smashing through the tanks and blazing flames from the explosion igniting the oil.

Thundered!

There was a muffled sound inside the mountain, and it didn't take long for a flame hundreds of meters long to erupt from somewhere in the middle of the mountain, like a giant flamethrower, burning the woods below the mountain into a wall of fire dozens of meters wide.

"Boom !!"

There was a loud bang, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. There was a violent explosion at the oil depot, thousands of tons of fuel exploded, causing the small hill of Daipra Island to be shattered, and a huge pillar of fire with a diameter of hundreds of meters erupted out, like a volcano bursting, and the smoke and flames were sprayed up to thousands of meters, and countless fireballs fell in all directions from a height of thousands of meters.

The two Raptor ships were almost hit by the falling fireball, but the pilot hurriedly flipped over and dodged, but he couldn't help but marvel.

"Wow! It's spectacular! ”

The Tang and Japanese armies that were fighting at the bottom of the mountain were affected to varying degrees, the Japanese army was on the inside, and dozens of people were killed and wounded by the falling mountain rocks and fireballs, and the Tang army was on the outside, and only a few people were wounded.

"Brothers in heaven, do you need to make such a big move?"

Several wounded Tang soldiers suddenly raised their middle fingers at the sky, because hanging the lottery was not something that made them happy.

Tomomi Inada, the commander of the Japanese army in the fortifications of Garit Island, had been paying close attention to the battle situation, and he did not expect that the Tang army would have more than 10,000 people engaged in the battle to seize the island. The Tang Army was equipped with advanced equipment, and the M1 submachine gun was designed to defeat the Japanese army's 38 rifle when fighting in the mountains, and its powerful firepower output was enough to crush a platoon of the Japanese army.

But it was just a single weapon of the Tang Army, the Tang Army's green camouflage uniform was very easy to hide in the island jungle battle, and it was difficult for a few Japanese officers to find each other with binoculars, let alone ordinary Japanese soldiers, who stared at it and lost their target.

When the tanks of the Tang Army crushed everything and rushed to the Japanese position, the Japanese either chose to retreat, or were crushed to death, or were beaten into a meat sieve by the Tang soldiers behind with submachine guns.

What's even more terrifying is that the squad platoon of the Tang Army Marine Corps is equipped with sniper rifles, although the snipers are not as good as the snipers of the special forces to shoot headshots at long distances, but there are sights that can hit the body of the Japanese army hundreds of meters away, the bullet of the Tang Army is very lacking, the bullet is round, wrapped with a layer of lead, once it is shot into the torso of the Japanese army, no matter what position, the bullet will cause a large damage trajectory, the bullet will not penetrate the body, but stay in the body and turn a few corners, under such destruction, the internal organs are completely smashed to pieces. Even if it doesn't hit the torso, it hits the limbs, and heals it is a cripple.

This kind of bullet has been banned by international law, but the Tang army still uses it.

If you ask every soldier of the Tang Army why they use such inhumane bullets of mass destruction, they will answer without hesitation: "We use this bullet to fight animals, and it is not humane!" ”

If you ask them again if they are violating international law and will be sanctioned by the League of Nations, they will not hesitate to answer: "Fuck the League of Nations, who can they control?" (To be continued......)
