Every minute counts in war, let alone an hour. Within an hour, the amphibious company of the Maritime Resistance Army had successfully landed.

Bai Chongfu, the company commander of this amphibious company, is a native of Guangxi, who has been following Li Guang for three years and has been in the army for six or seven years. Many officers did not understand the setting up of amphibious battalions in the Naval Resistance Army, believing that there was no need to set up a unit specializing in amphibious operations, and that all units could be competent with a little training.

But Li Guang is different, Li Guang has always believed that professionals do professional things.

Bai Chongfu's name is very similar to Bai Chongxi, a Gui giant, although they are both from Guangxi, but if there is a relationship between the two, they are just fellow countrymen. Bai Chongfu can serve as a company commander, and he has 16 landing craft of 250 people under his command, and there is no doubt about his ability. However, all along, the amphibious company has not been able to fight at all, although Li Guang has always said that good steel is used on the blade. But looking at the majestic appearance of the brothers' troops on the battlefield, Bai Chongfu was anxious in his heart.

Today's landing battle went very smoothly. The process of logging in the amphibious company was like an exercise, and there was almost no obstruction. Sixteen landing craft quickly crossed the waterway and were already on the pier.

Bai Chongfu has been a soldier for a long time, and it is not the first time he has been on the battlefield, but it is the first time he has commanded a battle as an officer, and he is a little nervous in his heart.

When he jumped on the dock, his nervousness eased a lot.

"A row to the left, the battery. The second platoon cleaned up the remnants of the port. Bai Chongfu issued orders in succession in accordance with the battle plan.

"Three rows, four rows, follow me." Bai Chongfu was well aware of his mission. Under the huge cannon attack of the Atlantic, the Italian battery has not fired a single shot so far, and it is estimated that the Italian army has abandoned the battery. As an amphibious company, the most important task is to ensure the safety of the landing site.

The reconnaissance of the Maritime Resistance Forces was very good, and the reconnaissance planes took thousands of photos in Berbera alone. Correspondingly, Bai Chongfu's mission is also very clear - there is only one place to occupy and defend, which is a road from the dock to the city.

The terrain around the port is flat, and there is no geography to draw on. In backward Somalia, there are not many sturdy buildings. All Bai Chongfu could do was rely on a seafood processing factory a kilometer from the wharf--- with a few brick and stone houses and a semi-enclosed compound.

Without a second of delay, Bai Chongfu took more than 100 brothers and rushed desperately towards the aquatic product processing factory.

By occupying this place, the Italian reinforcements will have a position to rely on.

In the training of the amphibious company, the most important thing is to land on the beach and defend the landing site. In today's battle, the beach-rushing landing was very smooth, but the key to success or failure lies in whether or not the landing ground can be held.

Colonel Bellini had the same goal as Bai Chongfu at the moment, and he was also leading the Black Shirts towards the aquatic product processing plant.

The huge guns of the battleship Atlantic continued to roar, and both the Italian batteries on the left flank and the Italian port positions on the right flank had been bombed. The Atlantic battleship is not the Pacific Ocean, and Zheng Xuechang is very picky about the use of naval guns. You must know that this battleship only had less than 700 shells, and the total number of shells that Yuan Ran got in Africa was less than 1,200. And there is no place to buy such shells with money. (Secret, Zheng Xuechang did not know that Li Guang had plans to trade with the Germans, so as to obtain this kind of shell.) ）

For the Atlantic, this battle was both training and combat. THE TWO QUADRUPLE 330MM GUNS ON THE ATLANTIC, IN ORDER TO SAVE AMMUNITION, DID NOT FIRE A SALVO, BUT ONLY FIRED IN TURNS FROM A SINGLE GUN. By this time, the Atlantic had no target and had stopped shelling.

In the early morning sun, Bai Chongfu and Bellini found their opponents almost at the same time. The two armies marched in opposite directions on the road.

At the first time, at a distance of several hundred meters, both sides immediately opened fire. Bai Chongfu's scalp was a little numb, there were too many enemies, and there were five or six hundred people in a large area of black pressure.

But at this time, he could not be allowed to retreat. At this moment the landing craft has returned to pick up the people, and the amphibious company is actually unable to retreat. The distance between the two armies from the aquatic product processing plant is about the same, and both Bai Chongfu and Bellini know the point.

Seizing the aquatic product processing plant is even more critical for Bai Chongfu. Without a position, his 100 or so men could not stop the attack of the elite of the Italian army.

Among the combat missions of the amphibious company, there were two at any cost. The first is to seize the landing site at any cost, and the second is to hold the landing site at any cost. At any cost, these four words are bright red blood and fresh life on the battlefield, which is majestic in words, but in fact it is extremely cruel. So far, this is the first time that Li Guang has used these four words on the battlefield.

"Four rows, roundabouts, occupation." Bai Chongfu's order was concise and clear.

The leader of the fourth platoon said: "Yes." "Without hesitation, lead people to seize the aquatic product processing plant from the sand dunes on the right flank.

One platoon, sixty people. In the face of five or six hundred opponents, the pressure can be imagined. However, Bai Chongfu did not think that he was at an absolute disadvantage, you must know that the Maritime Resistance Army had twenty-four water reconnaissance planes hovering in the sky. (Thirty-six, actually, and twelve warplanes on the Atlantic have not yet taken off.) ）

Less than a minute after firing on the ground, twenty-four water reconnaissance planes of the Maritime Resistance Army had already spotted the Italian reinforcements. Although these pilots were not as good as Liu Gensheng and Tu Yuanchao's fighter squadrons, they were more than enough to deal with ground targets that had no air defense force.

The air forces of the Naval Resistance Force now have a style of fighting, and the bombs dropped on the ground are all dive-dropped. Although the technical proficiency of these novice pilots is difficult to compare with that of fighter squads, they are also decent. More than 20 60-pound bombs exploded one after another on the sandy beaches and Gobi, and the violent explosions stirred up the sand and soil in the sky, and soon enveloped the entire battlefield.

On the ground, Bai Chongfu's troops were not defensive, but continued to attack. Bellini's troops were overwhelmed by the air strikes. Bellini was not a fool in the Italian army, and during the war, he also detached a detachment of troops to make a roundabout advance towards the aquatic product processing factory.

To Bellini's dismay, twenty-four warplanes were ploughing back and forth across the battlefield. For half an hour, the bombs and machine guns did not stop for a moment.

When the fighters withdrew, Bellini found that his elite black shirt army had lost half of it in half an hour. The battlefield was full of stumps and broken arms, black and red blood seeped into the sand, and the air was disgusting and bloody except for the smoke of gunpowder.

If it were any other Italian unit, it would have suffered such heavy losses, and the whole army would have collapsed long ago. However, Colonel Bellini was a young officer who had been personally received by Mussolini, and he had a fanatical support for Mussolini in his mind.

Bellini brandished his pistol, kicked and punched the soldiers, shouting: "Rush up, rush for me." ”

The two squadrons of water reconnaissance planes of the Maritime Resistance Army were indeed not mature enough, and the young man was hot-headed when he participated in the battle for the first time. In just half an hour, all the bombs and machine-gun ammunition were squandered.

This little mistake made Bai Chongfu's troops fall into an embarrassment again. The fourth platoon commander is now engaged in a battle with the troops of an Italian company at the seafood processing plant. And Bai Chongfu was pressed by the main force of the Italian army on the sand, and it was difficult to advance an inch.

In the fierce battle, Bai Chongfu's radio station was also damaged, and it was difficult to contact Zheng Xuechang for a while, and it was difficult to call for artillery support. The situation immediately became critical.

As the commander of the landing battle, Zheng Xuechang was standing on the air defense command platform at this time. The Atlantique's mast is tall, a full thirty meters high. The position of the command bridge was a little low, and Zheng Xuechang was worried that he would not be able to see it, so he climbed to the air defense command platform. The air defense command platform is 22 meters above the sea surface, which can be described as a high altitude and a distant view, and can clearly see the battlefield more than 10 kilometers away. Zheng Xuechang's caution saved Bai Chongfu's critical situation, he saw Bai Chongfu's pressure, and the twelve water transport planes on the battleship Atlantic quickly rose into the air.

For fighters, a dozen kilometers is actually equal to no distance. A few minutes later, the fighters began to suppress the battlefield again, and the Italian army, which had just been preparing to attack, was once again slaughtered.

Taking advantage of the gap in the support of fighter planes, Bai Chongfu finally occupied the aquatic product processing factory. But before Bai Chongfu could catch his breath, the twelve fighters ran out of bullets again, squandered the shells, and withdrew from the battlefield.

This tactic of naval fighters is a matter of course for the navy. Against the enemy's warships, it must be continuous intensive bombardment, and it is natural to retreat without bombs. But for the Army it is not so appropriate. It is precisely because of the differences between the navy and the army, and because of the young and inexperienced pilots of the navy and air force, that such a powerful air force has not been able to form a continuous protection of the battlefield, which is something that the officers of the navy and the army have not taken into account.

At this moment, Bellini's troops had been crippled, and only about 200 of the 700-strong troops could participate in the battle at this time. Bai Chongfu occupied the aquatic product processing plant, and the battle was even more unfavorable to the Italian army. But the ensuing battle situation was actually still unfavorable to Bai Chongfu.
