Chapter 218: Island Capture Landing 2

Rumble......

Five minutes later, with the last minute of the naval artillery shells falling, the frantic naval artillery bombardment came to an end. The late night seems to have returned to its former tranquility, and the sound of whirring can be heard when the river breeze blows.

"Baga, go back quickly, the enemy is about to land."

When the bombardment ended, the captain of the Devil Wing knew that it would be too late if he didn't go back. Such an obvious landing signal will be known to anyone with a little limited operational common sense.

Whew......

The devil, who had just evacuated his position in disarray, began to turn around again and began to run back with his gun. They must get into position before the enemy rushes to the beach, or the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Hurry up and ......"

Puff ...... Puff ......

After the bombardment ended, the marines in charge of the landing also drove their boats to the shallows on the river. The boat could no longer move on, and the warriors jumped into the water and began to run quickly towards the shore. The junior officers, on the other hand, were organizing the landing and urging the soldiers to speed up the landing. Because as soon as the ship's guns stop, the devils will enter the defense in full state, and there is not a lot of time left for them.

Hurry up and ...... Puff ......

The warriors also knew that time was pressing, and one by one they picked people into the water like monkeys, and then quickly rushed to the shore.

"Quick, find favorable terrain to establish a position, quickly."

The commander of one of the battalions who had reached the shore first shouted loudly, and the soldiers also ran quickly towards the woods on the shore.

"Yaga, the enemy is coming, speed up, fast."

The captain of the Devil's Wing, who was struggling to rush back, saw with his binoculars that dense black dots had appeared on the shore, and he knew that the enemy had successfully landed on the shore, and his side had not yet fully entered the position. In order to prevent the enemy from landing as much as possible, he began to shout loudly, constantly urging the soldiers to be faster.

"Hurry, hurry, speed up, hurry."

The officers at the grassroots level stood in one place, constantly waving their arms, constantly pushing the soldiers who passed by, urging them to speed up their pace. The most important thing is speed.

"Yaga, get into the position, quickly."

The vanguard of the devils finally rushed back, and the leader of a squad immediately ordered the soldiers to enter the previous position and prepare to launch a blockade.

"Devil, call me."

Da Da Da ...... Da Da Da ......

A company commander who had already entered the bushes on the shore found the returning devils, and in order to prevent the devils from successfully preventing the landing, he immediately launched an attack on the returning devils without asking for instructions.

Tweet ...... Yes......

The devils who hurried back did not know that the enemy was very close to their previous position, so as soon as the gunfire rang out, they were immediately caught off guard. Those who have not yet entered the territory, and the devils who are standing on the trenches continue to be shot and fall. In just a few minutes, dozens of people were wiped out.

"Baga, the enemy is in front, quickly enter the position, quickly."

The squad leader immediately reminded the remaining soldiers loudly, telling them that the enemy was already within range, and asked them to turn into time to enter the position, start to block the enemy, and buy time for reinforcements from the troops behind.

Da-da-da, da-da-da

"Hurry up, you can't let the devil stand on your feet, hurry, attack."

This company commander naturally also knew that the front was the defensive position built by the devils before, and if the devils successfully held the position, then a large number of devils would enter the position next, and Zhejiang would bring great trouble to their follow-up landing troops, and it would also increase their casualties. So they began to race against the devils, preparing to drive the vanguard of the devils out of their positions before the big army of devils arrived.

"Did the Marines land?"

Chen Jinghui, who was in the Jiujiang headquarters, was anxiously walking around the headquarters at the moment towards the ants on the hot pot. The landing operation was the first since the establishment of the Marine Corps, and he sweated against the new unit.

"Commander, the landing battle started half an hour ago, and the marines have already landed one after another."

When Chief of Staff Xu saw Chen Jinghui asking, he also knew what he was worried about, and the more immediately he answered his question.

"The report, the latest report of the Marine Corps, that they have successfully landed two regiments, and the remaining one regiment is also close to the shore. And the vanguard that landed first had already cried fire with the devils, and the two sides were engaged in a fierce battle. ”

As soon as Chief of Staff Xu finished speaking, the operator brought the latest battle report of the Marine Corps.

"Haha...... Well, order them to land all of them within an hour, and make sure to give me the islands before 12 midnight. ”

Hearing that most of the troops had landed, Chen Jinghui laughed happily, and the stones in his heart finally fell.

"Hurry up and reinforce the troops at the head of the line, quick."

At this moment, the follow-up units of the Marine Corps were already approaching the battle site one after another, and a regiment commander who had just landed immediately ordered the troops around him to go to reinforce the company that was still fighting fiercely with the devils.

Da ......Da Da

"Haha, brethren, our reinforcements are coming, rush......"

Hearing the gunfire behind them, it began to intensify, and the rockets had already begun to explode on the positions of the devils. The company commander, who was still fiercely capturing with the devil, knew that his reinforcements had come up, but at this moment, the devil's reinforcements had not yet arrived.

The opportunity was rare, and he immediately ordered the troops to start charging, preparing to swoop the positions in front of those pairs and block the devils from the position.

"Baga, ask the wing leader when the follow-up troops will arrive, quickly."

Seeing that the gunfire of the enemy's attack began to intensify, and there were also shell explosions, the leader of the devil's squad also knew that the enemy's follow-up troops were coming. If the follow-up troops on his side don't arrive, the hundred or so people of his own team will have to be explained here.

"Report, the wing said let's hold on for another ten minutes, and they'll be there right away."

"Baga, I'm holding on."

Rumble......

As soon as he finished shouting, a rocket landed beside him, directly lifting him out, and his flesh hung on the branch of a small tree next to him.

Kill......

Immediately afterwards, deafening shouts of killing followed, and countless fighters rushed to the devil's position. The devils, who were still holding their positions, saw the enemy rushing forward, and immediately turned around and prepared to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the soldiers.

It's a pity that they thought wrongly, and the warriors didn't mean to start hand-to-hand combat with them, but directly broke them all with guns.

"Get into position, quick."

After eliminating the scattered devils on the position, the company platoon commanders began to arrange for the soldiers to enter the positions built before the devils, preparing to meet the devils who arrived later.

"Hoarse, hoarse."

Beat...... Da-da-da, da-da-da

The captain of the devil wing kept urging the soldiers to speed up, and saw that the position was in front of them, but unfortunately they were not greeted by the previous line troops, but countless bullets with the breath of death.

"Baga, pay attention to concealment, quickly."

Seeing the countless fire snakes on the battlefield spewing bullets with flames, a large number of devils who ran in the front were eliminated in an instant. The Devil Wing Captain quickly ducked behind a tree, and then loudly reminded the soldiers to hide.

Bang bang

A few minutes later, the dodging devils began to use tree trunks and stones as cover to shoot at the fighters on the position.

"Bazooka, kill that devil's machine gun for me."

Chirp...... Yes......

A rocket flew in the direction pointed by the company commander, hitting the back of the stone directly, blowing up the devil hiding behind the stone, and the stone was also blown in half.

"Quickly build an artillery position, and give me a bang."

It turned out that the last regiment was slow because they brought three cannons at that time. This was also deliberately arranged by Chen Jinghui, in order to eliminate the devil defenders on the island as quickly as possible.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Half an hour later, the sappers had set up a proposed artillery position on the shore, and three 100mm heavy guns were quickly opened fire after they were erected. The huge cannonballs began to fly towards the crowd of devils as if they had eyes.

"Baga, pay attention to concealment, enemy shelling."

Seeing the huge fireball flying in the night sky, the Devil Wing Captain knew that the enemy had brought the cannon to the island. However, at the beginning, his cannon was bombarded by the ship of the Flying Fox, and none of the scum was under him.

Yes...... Yes......

Although he warned the soldiers in advance, if there was any place in the jungle to hide from the shells, the best way was to lie on the ground and not move. But despite this, there are still a lot of devils who have been hit by cannons. Moreover, they met the resistance when they arrived in a hurry, and the troops had not yet fully deployed, and as soon as the cannon exploded, one died at once. Near the point of the shell explosion, the stumps of the corpses of those devils can be seen everywhere.

"Yaga, turn in, fast. Immediately asked the Nanjing Headquarters for help and asked for support. ”

Seeing that his troops had suffered heavy losses under the fierce running and bombardment of the enemy, it had only been more than an hour of fighting, and more than half of a wing had already been lost. He had to abandon the idea of retaking positions and began to organize the retreat of the remnants. At the same time, the situation here was reported to Nanjing and Nanjing was requested for support.

"Report, Marine Corps report, the devils have begun to retreat to the northeast of the island."

"Okay, hahaha...... The Marines did a good job, ordering them to catch up quickly and not let a single devil go. ”

Hearing this battle report, Chen Jinghui looked at the time and found that from the beginning of the attack to the retreat of the devils, the total attack took less than two hours. He was happy with the result, but he was not carried away by the victory. The devils evacuated to the northeast, thinking of finding an opportunity to withdraw to the other side of the Yangtze River.

If he let the devils retreat to the other side, wouldn't it add resistance to his follow-up plans, and how could he easily let go of these devils.
