Chapter 470 is tragic

On May 1, the 32nd year of the Republic of China (1943), the Shah Alan landing campaign officially began!

At 7 o'clock in the morning, more than 800 Allied fighters roared over Shah Alan Beach and launched a large-scale aerial combat with the Japanese air force that had scrambled into the air to meet them.

At 7:40 a.m., more than 20 B-17 strategic bombers and more than 400 Mustang fighters carrying aerial bombs and rockets roared to the city and carried out carpet bombing of roads, bridges, and other military facilities between Kuala Lumpur and Shah Alan Beach, destroying almost all bridges, roads, and railways between the two places.

At 7:50, the airborne division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force landed in the deep area of Shah Alan Beach.

At 8:20 a.m., the huge Allied transport fleet approached Shah Alan Beach under the escort of the US Navy, and immediately the naval guns of the US Navy's battleships, cruisers, and destroyers began to carry out saturation shelling of Japanese targets that might exist on the coastline in order to cover the landing of infantry on the beach.

…………

Japanese positions on the coastline, underground bunkers of a certain artillery fortification.

Although the bunker was five meters deep, the shelling from the ground still made the entire narrow underground bunker tremble, and from time to time dust and gravel fell from the concrete-cast ceiling, until one feared that the reinforced concrete ceiling, which was half a meter thick, would not be able to withstand the tremendous pressure of the shelling and collapse.

Fifteen-watt incandescent lamps hung from the ceiling, rocking from side to side.

In the dim light, more than a dozen ghost soldiers crowded together, their faces were full of despair and fear as if the end of the world was coming, and the air was mixed with the smell of sweat, niào, body odor, and even feces.

Unlike most of the sluggish devil soldiers, Second Lieutenant Inoue Yasushi seemed very calm, and was even in the mood to write his diary during the rumbling shelling.

Dear Hanako, today is destined to be a tragic day.

Thousands of Allied warplanes almost obscured the skies over the beach, hundreds of warships almost crowded the open sea off Shah Alam Beach, Allied shells poured tons and tons on our heads, the sky trembled, the earth was there, and the faces of the once fearless Imperial warriors were now full of despair and fear.

Beloved Hanako, this may be the last journal I will write to you.

If nothing else, the Allies will soon be landing on Shah Alam, and due to the serious miscalculation of the intentions of the Allies by the Southern Army Command, our reinforcements will not be able to arrive in time, and with the strength of one of our divisions, we will not be able to hold the entire coastline in any case, and the defeat of the Imperial Army seems to be inevitable.

My beloved Hanako, I want to return to my hometown, gently embrace your soft delicate body into my arms, sniff the intoxicating fragrance emanating from your body, and warm my already cooled heart with your hot delicate body, however, I may not have such a chance, never again, because soon I will die on the battlefield.

I hated the title of samurai, and I never wanted to die fighting for someone.

But I am a soldier, a pure emperor, for the country, for the nation to die on the battlefield is my fate, my love, I hope that in the next life I can still keep the memory of this life, can find your existence from the vast sea of people, in order to continue the unfinished love in this life, farewell, my favorite, my flower child......

…………

Off Shah'an Beach, an Allied transport ship.

Private Xu Shaoyun took out a cigarette, but he didn't strike six matches in a row.

The excessive tension made Xu Shaoyun's hands extremely stiff, and the movements that were usually easy and simple to complete were so difficult to do at this time, when he finally struck the seventh match, the cigarette in his mouth fell to the cabin deck because of the trembling of his lips.

Xu Shaoyun couldn't help but be nervous, because this was his first time participating in actual combat.

Looking up at the huge hour hand hanging on the front wall of the cabin, the hour hand had already pointed to 10 o'clock in the morning, and the saturated shelling of the coastline by the US Navy naval guns had been going on for a quarter and forty minutes, and according to the combat manual issued before the war, the US Navy's shelling should be over in 20 minutes, and the infantry should have moved.

Without a second thought, a tall black soldier had already entered the cabin and shouted angrily: "GGG! ”

When Xu Shaoyun struggled to squeeze out of the cabin, he saw that the deck was already crowded with heavily armed expeditionary officers and soldiers, and then the soldiers descended to the assault boat docked next to the transport ship like dumplings down the soft ladder hanging from the side of the ship.

Xu Shaoyun, whose eyes were dull and his movements were stiff, almost landed sideways into the cabin of the assault boat.

“redy？ g！ Seeing that the people had arrived, the American GIs driving the assault boats immediately set sail.

Xu Shaoyun bent his legs, curled himself up into the corner of the cabin as much as possible, and looked around, the high steel baffle completely separated the cabin from the outside world into two worlds, except for the occasional fighter plane flying in the air, the whole world seemed to be only the 12 soldiers crowded in the cabin, and the American soldier who drove the assault boat.

Xu Shaoyun looked at his comrades-in-arms one by one, and only the old squad leader looked calm.

The old squad leader is a real veteran, who once participated in the Battle of Wuhan and chopped two devils on the battlefield.

The old squad leader still retains the blood mark of that battle on his stomach, and a terrible scar almost cut his abdomen in half, and the old squad leader often told them that it was a miracle that he survived, even the Lord of Yama was not used to the devils, so he deliberately left him to cut a few more devils.

As if sensing Xu Shaoyun's gaze, the old squad leader sitting at the front suddenly turned around, threw an encouraging glance at the youngest but most educated private in the class, and immediately shouted in a thick voice: "After the cabin is opened, everyone don't think about anything, follow me and rush forward, keep rushing, do you hear?" ”

"I hear you." The soldiers, apparently distracted, replied in a vague manner.

The old squad leader was furious, and immediately repeated the roar in a thunderous voice: "Did you hear that!? ”

"I heard you!" This time the old squad leader's roar seemed to have played a role, and the soldiers' answers were loud and neat.

…………

At 10:20 a.m., after two full hours, the saturation shelling by the US Navy finally ended.

As soon as the sound of the artillery stopped, Second Lieutenant Inoue Yasushi hurriedly took a dozen soldiers of the entire artillery team up to the ground fortifications.

The artillery observer grabbed an arrow step in front of the artillery mirror, looked out through the artillery mirror, and saw that the sea several kilometers away was already covered with black pressure beach-grabbing assault boats, the number of which was as many as thousands, the observer casually chose a target, and roared angrily: "12 o'clock direction, the distance is 3200 meters, and the shè angle is minus 5 degrees!" ”

The gunner quickly adjusted the horn and immediately filled the shell.

Immediately, Second Lieutenant Inoue Yasushi pulled the saber forward fiercely, and the gunner pulled down the gun fiercely, only to hear a loud bang, and the battle defense gun weighing more than 1 ton trembled violently, but a 37mm caliber battle defense shell had already carried a piercing scream, and went towards the sea in front of him.

On the sea ahead, an assault boat that was speeding forward was disintegrated in an instant.

Unfortunately, the artillery shells of the devil soldiers hit the fuel tank of the assault boat, and in the huge explosion, 13 Allied soldiers, including the American soldiers who drove the assault boat, instantly turned into severed limbs and stumps in the sky, and the broken steel fragments suddenly rose into the sky, and then tumbled and flew out hundreds of meters away.

"Yo Si." Second Lieutenant Yasushi Inoue lowered his binoculars and turned back to the artillery observer and the gunner, nodding appreciatively.

The artillery observer's expression was greatly lifted, and when he was re-selecting the target to be attacked, a UFO suddenly appeared above the field of vision, and when he looked at it urgently, it was an Allied fighter jet roaring towards him, and at this moment, the devil observer could even clearly see the eight hideous rockets hanging under the wings of the Allied fighter plane!

"Baga Yalu ......" the artillery observer said, turned around and wanted to run.

However, before the artillery observer could take two steps, a rocket had already broken away from the Allied fighters and rushed down towards the Japanese artillery fortifications, instantly piercing through the thick concrete walls of the artillery fortifications and then exploding, including Second Lieutenant Yasushi Inoue and the Mén battle defense gun, all the people and things in the fortifications disintegrated in an instant.

When the dust settled, a broken diary tumbled and fell from the air, and between the title pages, a yellowed black-and-white photograph quietly fell from it, in which the NV people in the photo were dressed in kimonos, looking thousands of charming, and on the back of the photo was written a line of juanxiu xiǎo characters in Japanese: Wish Inouue-kun a speedy triumph, xiǎo and Tian Hanako.

…………

The assault boat is still galloping forward, and the distance of these few kilometers is so long!

Xu Shaoyun has never been seasick, but at this time, he felt a whirlwind of the world, and there was a strong vomiting desire in his chest, but he bit the tip of his tongue desperately to forcibly suppress this vomiting desire, because of the strong dizziness and excessive tension, Xu Shaoyun's face looked extremely pale, without a trace of blood.

The faces of the comrades-in-arms were similar, and several of them were even sweating profusely.

"Boom!" A huge explosion suddenly sounded not far away, and then the assault boat began to shake violently, obviously another assault boat was destroyed in the explosion just now, which also meant that more than a dozen comrades were sacrificed, and the faces of Xu Shaoyun and his comrades in the same class became more and more bloodless.

"Poof." A bloody thing suddenly fell from the sky and fell in front of Xu Shaoyun.

Xu Shaoyun instinctively picked up the object, and when he looked at it, it was a half-bloody broken leg, and suddenly, Xu Shaoyun's stomach began to churn violently, and then he vomited with a wow, someone started to start, and the rest of the soldiers also joined the vomiting uncontrollably, and the entire cabin was soon full of filth and mess.

"Bang dang!" At this moment, the assault boat hit the obstacle heavily and ran aground.

“g！ g！ ggg！ The American GI piloting the assault boat roared loudly, and immediately opened the front compartment.

As soon as the front compartment was opened, a heavy machine gun bullet had already whizzed, and in an instant it exploded the head of the American GI, and the American GI fell headlong in the driver's seat without saying a word.

"Go, go, get down into the water, quick!" The old squad leader stood up suddenly, raised his arms and roared.

The soldiers still did not break free from the tension and fear before the war, the most direct manifestation was that their eyes were dull, their movements were stiff, and their brains were several times slower than usual.

Xu Shaoyun was the last to get out of the cabin, and the corner of his eye suddenly saw another assault boat behind the side, the front cabin of the assault boat had just opened, and the devil's heavy machine gun bullets had already poured out like water, and before more than a dozen officers and soldiers could make any reaction, they had already been beaten into a blood sieve, and all of them died heroically!

Xu Shaoyun's eyes suddenly straightened, and he couldn't retract his eyes.

"Leave them alone, mind yourself!" The old squad leader roared angrily and kicked Xu Shaoyun into the sea.

However, just as the old squad leader was about to jump into the sea, a rifle bullet had already whizzed, piercing the old squad leader's neck with great accuracy, and the old squad leader's strong body slammed down, and then slid out of the cabin under the action of gravity and habit, and plunged headlong into the icy seawater.

Besides, Xu Shaoyun sank into the water nearly two meters deep before he began to rise again.

Just when Xu Shaoyun was desperately struggling to lift his hands, he suddenly saw the old squad leader stretching his limbs and sinking stiffly from the water, Xu Shaoyun's hands suddenly stopped, and he looked at the old squad leader who was once extremely familiar with him in a daze, only to see a tent of red blood mist gushing out of the old squad leader's neck, and the old squad leader's once extremely sharp gaze seemed empty and sluggish at this time, and he was angry.

The whole world suddenly became dead silent, Xu Shaoyun couldn't believe it, the old squad leader who was still alive just now, kicked him into the sea and died like this, in the eyes of Xu Shaoyun and the new recruits in the class, the old squad leader was an immortal veteran, but now, the immortal veteran is dead, really dead!

"Wow." Under the action of buoyancy, Xu Shaoyun finally surfaced.

Suddenly, the sound of a huge explosion, the sound of a sharp bullet breaking through the air, the hoarse roar of the officers, the wailing of the dying comrades, and the whistling of the fighter planes in the sky, all the sounds poured into Xu Shaoyun's ears like cháo water in an instant, and the whole world came back, and Xu Shaoyun, who was originally dull in his eyes and stiff limbs, also came back to life.

"Don't stop!" Xu Shaoyun, who seemed to have died once, took over the command of the old squad leader without thinking, and roared angrily at the comrades who were huddled behind the obstacles and shivering, "It's a gentleman who rushes with me, rushes to the beach, these *** Japanese devils, avenge the old squad leader!"
