The Boston soldiers were completely ineffective in the face of this purgatory-like horror, and they ran around trying to avoid the bombing of the planes, but to no avail.

Having lost the cover of the Navy and Air Force, these soldiers exposed on the beach could only be live targets. Tens of thousands of Boston soldiers were crowded on the small flat ground, and even the airport was completely occupied by soldiers, so that the density increased the lethality of napalm, and the Boston soldiers were killed one after another.

Some of the clever soldiers tried to hide in the tunnels, and they rushed towards the mouths of the various tunnels on the island, and the other soldiers soon came to their senses and rushed over as well. Their idea was good, but the mouth of the tunnel was so narrow that only one person could pass at a time, and if the soldiers had lined up and passed in good order, they might have been able to have more people survive.

If the Boston Imperial soldiers were well-disciplined, they could have survived, but this was only theoretical data, and under the threat of the terrifying flames of napalm, who would want to give in and let their comrades enter the mountain tunnels to take refuge first. Everyone rushed forward to enter the tunnel first to avoid death from the sky, but a serious stampede occurred near the narrow mouth of the tunnel, and many people with weak constitutions were pushed to the ground, and then stepped on countless feet, trampling him to death.

Seeing that they couldn't squeeze to the front, some of the Boston soldiers in the back went crazy, and they all picked up their semi-automatic rifles or submachine guns and fired at the crowd in front, trying to make a bloody way and escape into the tunnel. One man shoots, the situation cannot be stopped, more and more people shoot, and Boston soldiers begin to kill each other.

When an hour later, the Eastern Ocean Fleet of the Chinese Empire sailed close to Weil Island, which had become a world of charcoal, and all the soldiers contaminated with napalm did not escape the fate of being burned to charcoal, and those sailors who did not dare to go to the island after falling into the water became mostly the belly of sharks, and in the end, the Eastern Ocean Fleet was able to save only more than 300 Boston sailors.

There were more dead bodies in front of the tunnel, and the corpses were piled up from the foot of the mountain to the mouth of the tunnel on the mountainside, and this was the case near more than a dozen tunnel entrances, and the dense corpses were as many as several layers, almost blocking half of the exit of the tunnel mouth, and the flowing blood gathered together to form a small river composed of blood, which slowly flowed to the beach and then into the sea.

Those soldiers who managed to enter the tunnel, as well as the Boston soldiers of the three divisions who had to wait until the first to fight the 331st Regiment in the tunnel, narrowly escaped. It's just that these people also lost the will to resist after seeing the purgatory-like scene on the island, and they surrendered to the soldiers of the 331st Regiment of the Chinese Marine Corps, which were much smaller than their own, and the Chinese Navy submarines cruising nearby also surfaced one after another to help the fleet clean up the sea battlefield.

After disarming all the Bostonians and guarding them, Feng Ju landed on Weil Island with a group of guards and staff officers. "Report to the general, Feng Yucheng, commander of the 331st Regiment of the 11th Brigade of the 5th Division of the 3rd Marine Corps, reports to you." Feng Yucheng's appearance at this time was quite embarrassing, his head was wrapped in bandages, his clothes had been scraped into rags, and his face was blackened by gunsmoke, but he was still in a straight figure and saluted a military salute in the most standard posture.

Feng Ju patted Feng Yucheng on the shoulder and said, "I'm sorry for you, you are all good, where are the soldiers of the whole regiment?" ”

Feng Yucheng pointed back and said, "Report to the commander, they are all here." ”

Behind Feng Yucheng were more than 120 ragged soldiers, their faces were tired, almost all of them were wounded, but they all tried their best to stand up straight and salute Feng Ju, this is all the men and horses left of the 331st Regiment of 1,500 people after more than a day of brutal fighting.

Although the 331st Regiment fought relatively smoothly in the early battle, after the Bostonians increased their troops, their range of movement became smaller, and the casualties also skyrocketed, so now they are only left with these people. Qian Feng's legs were bandaged, and he barely stood in the line with the support of a rifle, his eyes full of tears, because in yesterday's battle, Chen Shou and Chen Lao Er both sacrificed their young lives to protect him.

"Report to the head of the regiment, Liu Quan, the captain of the 19th Island Flight Garrison, to request to return to the team." Liu Quan, who came out of the floating submarine No. 1085 and then landed on Vil Island in an assault boat, ran to Feng Yucheng's side, and behind Liu Quan were all the other thirty-three surviving pilots.

"General......" Feng Yucheng looked at Feng Ju.

Feng Ju nodded: "Allow them to return to the team." Liu Quan and the others saluted Feng Ju and ran to the ranks of the soldiers of the 331st Regiment standing straight.

Feng Ju patted Feng Yucheng on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, I didn't disgrace your father." ”

Before the battle, who could have known that the commander of the Marine Corps, who was under tremendous pressure and stuck to Weil Island, was the son of Feng Shichang, the former chief of the general staff of the army, and before the war, when some officers proposed to exchange Feng Yucheng for an airplane, Feng Yucheng resolutely resisted, and as a soldier, he must not abandon his brother as a deserter.

Feng Yucheng smiled, and white teeth appeared on his dark face: "I know that I haven't done anything to show my face, and now my father won't say that I'm useless." ”

Feng Ju nodded, he took a few steps forward, walked in front of the many officers and soldiers guarding the island, and said with tears in his eyes: "It was my wrong command that caused you to suffer such a heavy loss, and I apologize to you." Saying that, Feng Ju bowed deeply to the officers and soldiers guarding the island.

The officers and soldiers guarding the island stood there straight, and at the same time stretched out their hands and saluted again. Feng Ju raised his head and said, "You are all good, you are the best officers and soldiers of the Chinese Empire, and I am proud of you." Please do not grieve for your fallen comrades, because veterans do not die, the spirit of the army does not die, and their fighting spirit will live on forever. ”

"Veterans don't die, and the soul of the army doesn't die." Hearing Feng Ju's words, all the officers and soldiers guarding the island shouted selflessly, and they seemed to think of their comrades who had already died, and of the days and nights of hard fighting a few days away.

Soon the officers and men of the Chinese Empire on the entire island shouted in unison, followed by the officers and men on the warship and the officers and men on the submarine. "Veterans don't die, and the soul of the army doesn't die." The shouts resounded in the sky and circled over the island of Veil for a long time.

After learning about the hard fighting experience of the 331st Regiment of the Marine Corps, Fang Ruijun was also greatly moved, and he immediately ordered the 331st Regiment to be named the Panshi Regiment, and at the same time wrote seven big characters in his own hand, sent them to Weil Island, and instructed the engineering team to erect a monument on the island and write these words on it.

After the end of the World War, the Chinese Foundation sent a professional engineering team to build a stone monument on Veil Island. This stele is composed of granite, ten meters high, around the base of the stele, engraved with the names of the soldiers of the 331st Regiment who died in this battle, and on the front of the stele, engraved with seven big characters written by Fang Ruijun.

Later, the island of Vail became a tourist destination, and many people came to visit the tunnels left behind by the great war, as well as the tall stone monument. Since then, every visitor who has landed on Veil Island will see the tall stone monument for the first time, and the seven bright red characters of the stele are also clearly visible, so that people can see the seven big characters written by Fang Ruijun himself from a distance, 'Men are as dead as iron'.

Feng Ju's beautiful naval battle completely annihilated the entire ocean-going fleet of the Boston Empire, 45 aircraft carriers, 59 battleships, hundreds of cruisers and thousands of destroyers, hundreds of supply ships and thousands of merchant ships were completely destroyed.

In addition, 100,000 naval officers and soldiers and more than 100,000 army soldiers were killed or captured, causing the Boston Empire to lose most of its naval elite, and at this time there was no longer a single large surface ship on the west coast of the Boston Empire. All that can now defend the west coast of the Boston Empire are hundreds of small gunboats and torpedo boats, as well as dozens of submarines that will be spotted by the sonar of Chinese naval ships as soon as they go to sea.

Feng Ju spent two months, relying on strategic deception and excellent command ability, and after paying heavy casualties, he completely annihilated the Boston Imperial Ocean Fleet, but Fang Ruijun's face was blue after receiving the military expenditure report: "What are you kidding, you actually used so many missiles, and the cost of a campaign was as high as 100 million Chinese yuan, did he want me to go bankrupt?" ”

Zhang Haiyang, the commander of the navy on the side, said with a smile: "Little young master, it's not expensive to exchange 100 million Chinese yuan for the entire ocean-going fleet of Bostonians." ”

Fang Ruijun sighed and said, "Yes, we still made money." ”

Prime Minister Lin Feng on the side took out another document and said, "Little Master, this is a report on the need for overhaul and replenishment of battle-damaged carrier-based aircraft on the ships of the Eastern Ocean Fleet. Hearing that it would cost another money, Fang Ruijun immediately had a black line on his face, stretched his shoulders, and said with a smile: "I said this is not expensive." ”

The great victory in the Battle of the Eastern Ocean made the situation of the Chinese Empire in the Eastern Ocean very good, and the Eastern Ocean Fleet of the Chinese Empire completely controlled the sea control of the entire Eastern Ocean, and a large number of troops defending in the eastern coastal areas could finally be withdrawn and replenished to the Western Front to cope with the major battle in the spring of next year.

The northern hemisphere is dormant because of ice and snow, but in the southern hemisphere it is the height of summer, and McLean, who has been promoted to lieutenant general, has just taken over the position of lieutenant general Craig.
