At 9 o'clock in the evening of 10 February, Lin Yuan's troops sent small boats to break the Japanese minefield, because the Japanese long-range artillery position was relatively far away from the minefield, so the artillery was not able to strike at the boats of Lin Yuan's troops.

The commander of the Japanese army was the commander of the 7th Division, Mizuta Mingyuan, when the minesweeper of Lin Yuan's unit was searching for mines on the sea with a coulter minesweeper, the beachhead observation post called the headquarters of Mizuta Mingyuan, Mizuta Mingyuan was a diligent guy, and recently saw Lin Yuan's warship cruising on the sea all day long, so he ate and lived in the command center, and he answered the phone as soon as it rang.

The Japanese officer on the phone said: "Report to the division commander, Lin Yuan's troops have sent minesweepers and are breaking minefields!" As soon as Mizuta Mingyuan heard the news, he immediately led his attendants to the front headquarters, which was located on a high hill and could overlook the three landing fields.

Mizuta Mingyuan saw the fire flashing on the sea from time to time, and he knew that it was the light emitted when the mine exploded, and then the chief of staff Sakamoto Yoshiyoshi said: "Division commander, is Lin Yuan's troops going to attack us?" ”

Shuitian Mingyuan said: "Probably not, isn't Lin Yuan going to fight Hamgyong Mountain?" He has already concentrated all the troops there, does he still have the strength to fight on another front? ”

Sakamoto Yoshiyong said: "Division commander, Vladivostok's industrial strength is strong, and the first division stationed there is a strong division, so it is not impossible for them to launch an attack here. ”

Mizuta Mingyuan said: "Now that Hamgyong Mountain has become an arena of national dignity and national spirit between China and Japan, Lin Yuan will not ignore the national honor and national dignity, give up attacking Hamgyong Mountain, and instead attack Cheongjin Port, so the current mine-sweeping operation is just a test and harassment of Lin Yuan's troops, but it cannot be ruled out that Lin Yuan intends to fight on two fronts!" ”

Yoshiyoshi Sakamoto nodded and said, "The division commander's analysis is really reasonable, so how should we deal with it?" ”

Mizuta Mingyuan said: "Inform the troops, have a good rest tonight." ”

Yoshito Sakamoto asked in surprise: "Division commander, Lin Yuan's troops are opening up a minefield, and the attack is imminent, so we don't let the troops be vigilant, but let them rest well, what is the reason?" ”

Mizuta Mingyuan said: "It will take at least one night to open out of the minefield, so the time for Lin Yuan's troops to really launch an attack will be tomorrow during the day, to be exact: it is at ten o'clock in the morning, that time is the climax of the landing field, the sea height is the largest, and Lin Yuan's troops have the shortest beach rush distance, so they will definitely attack at that time, if the warriors are very tired tonight, how can they resist the attack of the Shina people tomorrow?" Alright, let's go and rest. ”

The next day, at 6 o'clock in the morning of February 11, Shen Xin ordered the fire support ships to launch an attack on the high ground and beachhead fortifications where the Japanese long-range artillery was located.

The fire support ship is a type of battleship newly equipped by Lin Yuan's troops, this kind of battleship is very similar to battleships, with a full load displacement of up to 30,000 tons, and the main armament is large-caliber artillery, the whole battleship is equipped with 12 305 mm guns and 24 203 mm secondary guns, and the firepower of one battleship exceeds the total firepower of the two army divisions of Lin Yuan's army.

The reason why Lin Yuan wanted to put such a type of warship into service was because in previous actual battles, Lin Yuan found that the combat object of his navy was not the enemy's warship, but the enemy's beachhead and fortress, and when dealing with these targets, missiles were useless, but warships equipped with large-caliber artillery could exert their power.

So Lin Yuan asked the arsenal to build such a type of warship, and called it "fire support ship", the name of the ship is adhering to Lin Yuan's tradition of using the name of the ship to promote Chinese culture, called "martial arts class fire support ship", the first batch of four warships in service were named "Taiji", "Xingyi", "Baji" and "Wing Chun", all of which are the names of boxing in traditional Chinese martial arts.

Shen Xin's order, the four fire support ships immediately used the ship's 305 mm guns and 203 mm guns to strike at Japanese targets, both types of guns used bottom row extended range grenades, so the range reached a terrifying forty kilometers!

For a while, the Japanese positions rained down like bullets, but Mizuta Mingyuan did not panic, because he knew very well in his heart that their fortifications were very strong, as long as the shells of Lin Yuan's troops did not fall on the fortifications, the fortifications would not be damaged, and the shells could not be accurately aimed, and it was impossible for every one to hit the fortifications!

Although Mizuda Mingyuan was not panicked, the Japanese soldiers on the beachhead were different, and they all had a sense of panic in their hearts, because of the mist on the sea, they couldn't see the fleet of Lin Yuan's troops, and those shells seemed to come from the void.

As the shelling progressed, the high tide continued, and the sea level rose little by little, and the hearts of the Japanese soldiers rose to their throats, thinking: "Lin Yuan's troops are about to attack, we must beat them back!" ”

At ten o'clock in the morning, Shen Xin issued an order to the actual attack group outside the rocky beach: "Air cushion landing craft, attack!" With one order, the Star-class amphibious landing ship immediately opened the hatch and lowered the air-cushion landing craft into the sea.

This type of landing craft was named by Lin Yuan after ancient Chinese scientists, so it is called "scientist-level air-cushion landing craft", this kind of landing craft is designed by Lin Yuan's experts with reference to the "European Bison-class" air-cushion landing craft in Lin Yuan's era, the "European Bison-class" air-cushion landing craft is the largest air-cushion landing craft in the world in Lin Yuan's era, with a load capacity of up to 150 tons, while the American air-cushion landing craft LCAC of the same level has a load capacity of only 60 tons.

Although the carrying capacity of Lin Yuan's air-cushion landing craft is not as high as that of the "European Bison-class", it is as high as 100 tons, which means that a "scientist-class" can carry four fully loaded TK-96 tanks or six BZ-96 infantry fighting vehicles!

Each landing ship carries three air-cushion landing craft, and eight landing ships are dispatched together to send a mechanized armored regiment to the shore at once! The air-cushion landing craft entered the water, at first it was in the water, but soon the operator on board started the gas turbine, and the powerful air flow was blown under the boat, and the landing craft was quickly held in the air, separated from the water, and broke into the rocky beach.

Although the Japanese army believed that it was impossible for Lin Yuan's troops to land near the rocky beach, they still set up a reconnaissance post on the high ground near the coast, and due to the obstruction of the mist, the Japanese soldiers in the reconnaissance post did not see the landing ship, they only saw the air-cushion landing craft.

When a Japanese scout saw Lin Yuan's air-cushion landing craft, he immediately turned around and smiled: "Hurry up and come and see, the people of China sent a boat to the rocky beach to send them to death!" ”

Another also said: "Yes, now that the tide is rising and flooding the reef, the people of China still think that they can sail here!" ”

At this time, the captain frowned and said, "A few days ago, a ship of the people of China hit the reef and sank here, is the people of China stupid?" And to die! ”

Everyone laughed and said, "Captain, the people in China are stupid pigs!" ”

The captain's face changed suddenly, and he pointed to the landing craft in the distance and said, "Don't you see the strangeness of that thing?" ”
