736 The Battle of Los Angeles

736 "The Battle of Los Angeles"

"Protect the bulldozer!"

Jiang Yan let out a loud shout, pulled out a grenade with a sharp lunge, and threw it at the few American soldiers in front of him who were also about to blow up the bulldozer with a grenade. β€»β€»β€»β€»β€» I β€» I β€» β€»

Close combat, the comparison is speed and reflexes, these American troops didn't seem to expect that this strange-looking, tank-like thing was followed by infantry, and it was suddenly blown up in a blur of flesh and blood.

"Class 1, left!"

"Second class, right!"

"Machine guns, rack up the machine guns, watch out for the grenades that are still coming out of the trenches!"

In the shouting, the machine gunners of the two squads quickly occupied both sides of the road where the bulldozers were about to operate, and quickly set up light machine guns on the ground, and in the sound of clattering and whistling, they quickly suppressed the trenches in front of them, and the American soldiers in the trenches no longer dared to look up.

After seeing that the machine gun suppressed the enemy, Jiang Yan immediately took the remaining fighters, threw a string of grenades into the latter trench, and flew into it.

Because the U.S. troops were also afraid of being driven directly by tanks, each trench was 36 meters wide, far exceeding the obstacle width of the 3 Cheetah and 4 Siberian Tiger tanks, so it was necessary to use a bulldozer to clear the obstacle before filling in this section of trench before continuing to advance.

After a huge shovel plunged into the soft sand, and after a puff of black smoke erupted from behind the buttocks, the bulldozer using two high-horsepower gasoline engines immediately began to work.

The corpses covered in the trenches almost made Jiang Yan hesitate, and after staggering a few steps to get up, he immediately beckoned everyone to spread out to the two wings, because the trenches were very deep, and they were not straight, and there were all kinds of forks and hiding points inside, so they had to carefully walk along the wall.

"Grenades."

Jiang Yan shouted, and the soldiers behind him understood, and immediately pulled out a grenade and threw it into the left corner, and the explosion rushed out from the side with a puddle of mud and sand, and hit his face in pain.

The bodies of the two American soldiers were also brought out by the explosion at the same time, it is estimated that they were originally going to hide in the corner to carry out a sneak attack, but they did not expect the opponent to be so cunning, and they were not in a hurry to spread out to the two wings when they entered the trench, but cautiously walked against the wall of the trench, and when they met the branch road, they first returned the grenade, so they did not close their eyes when they died.

That's the experience!

Jiang Yan spat at the corpse, and said that combat experience, the Marine Corps must be one of the rich troops, he alone has experienced the rainforest war on the Southeast Peninsula, and then the Solomon Islands, Noumea, Australia, and the barrels of the guns have been changed several times along the way, if he hasn't even exercised this ability, then it is really time to retire.

Cleared the trench of sufficient width, Jiang Yan did not let the soldiers continue to attack on both flanks, but stubbornly defended to protect the trench from being recaptured by the American army, the important thing for him now is to protect the bulldozer, as long as this trench can be filled quickly, then the 1st Marine Division can quickly pass into the core of Los Angeles City.

From time to time, the bullets that flew grazed the scalp and clanged on the bulldozer, Jiang Yan and the soldiers were interested in firing back and forth a few shots, or they would defend this trench to the death, anyway, the bulldozer had rough skin and thick flesh, if you count the big shovel in front, you can't even hit the front of the 3 cheetahs, so you still care about a few small bullets.

Jiang Yan looked at his watch, it had been 6 hours since the morning, although the three trenches had not been fully occupied, but the gaps and roads had been filled by bulldozers, and the armored troops were cutting along these gaps, if it went well, the peripheral battle should be ended by evening.

However, this kind of battle can be left to the infantry division, and the goal of the 1st Marine Division and the armored division is to fight to the city of Los Angeles, but it is also a fatal mission.

Even if you break it all up, there are still many American troops in the rubble and dilapidated houses, and the dense streets and buildings will make the scalp tingle of every soldier who rushes in, because you never know which one of them will suddenly burst out behind so many windows.

Therefore, it is necessary to be vigilant.

Just when Jiang Yan was thinking about how to fight after entering the city, the bulldozer had already completed filling the pit, and it took exactly forty minutes to look at the watch, which was not slow, but it was this kind of sandy land, if it was placed in a place like West Siberia, it would not be finished in 2 hours.

The bulldozer finished driving to the trench next to it last night, and several 3 Cheetah tanks waiting behind immediately accelerated and rushed over the filled trench to the city of Los Angeles not far away.

"Boom......."

A huge explosion exploded from the front, and the shock wave lifted Jiang Yan and several fighters who were just about to climb the trench, but fortunately the distance was still relatively far away and was not swept by shrapnel.

Judging from the power of the explosion, it should be the large-caliber heavy artillery on the harbor side, and the infantry is no problem with these guys who turn their heads, and the army can't gnaw on them, but this guy won't live long, and the night owls hovering in the sky will swoop down to kill it after being exposed.

Jiang Yanzhong climbed into the trench and followed closely behind the fanned tank company with his infantry reconnaissance company. In terms of troop equipment, the First Marine Division is completely equipped according to the standards of the infantry division, and because of the special combat objectives of the Marine Corps, it is equipped with far more recoilless guns and mortars than the infantry division in light support fire weapons, and there are a lot more machine guns, and the reconnaissance company is the strongest of the strong, so the combat effectiveness is almost less than that of the seals.

"Check the ammunition." Jiang Yan kept turning his head and shouting to the soldiers while artillery: "The front is Los Angeles, give me 12 points of spirit, my eyes widened!" Once you're on the street, try to stick to the wall, and if you don't have one, lean next to tanks and armored vehicles, the body will help you block the bullets from behind, so you can concentrate on the enemy on one side! ”

"All classes should pay attention to cooperation, and shout loudly to me when they encounter something!"

"Besides, I'll remind you later!" Jiang Yan kept shouting and reminding everyone: "Remember the order before departure, anyone with a gun is a shooting target!" ”

"Yes!"

The tanks rumbled and rushed towards the city with billowing sand and dust, and when the troops arrived in the neighborhood, in an instant, as if a huge hornet's nest had been pierced, countless shells, machine guns and grenades rushed out from everywhere.

"Boom, boom, boom......, boom

"Trebuchet, call trebuchet! District 4 Main Street needs support. ”

"The 6th company was suppressed at the entrance of the street, Zhang Bin, immediately let the 2nd Tank Battalion support them!"

"Rollers, let the rollers concentrate on the shelling of area 11, where there are strong fortifications!"

"Warhammer, order Warhammer to move over the trenches and towards the edge of the city."

"Send all the tanks up!"

In the communications center of the front headquarters, the non-commissioned officers kept shouting, although it was a cold winter season, but the scorching California sun was shining on everyone, making everyone sweat profusely.

"Report, the first part of the US army, began to move towards San Bernardino, and the Air Force reconnaissance found that there were very many of them!" After the staff officer saluted, he handed the telegram to Luo Feng and Ouyang Xiu, who were standing quietly in the corner, the troops had launched a full-scale attack, and at this time, their senior officers could not help, in the final analysis, in addition to good planning and command, the victory of the war required the soldiers to fight it with flesh and blood.

"Why, don't you command it yourself?" Ouyang Xiu smoked hard, raised his eyebrows and squinted at Luo Feng, who was holding the telegram.

"What's there to go, I'm not a division commander." Luo Feng glared back at Ouyang Xiu angrily, and originally wanted to mix two sentences to relieve the atmosphere, but when it came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything, and only spit out four words: "It's hard to fight when you enter the city." ”

"yes."

Ouyang Xiu nodded, for the army, urban and street warfare is a problem, but the small city of Los Angeles is already so intense, if it is changed to a big city on the east coast of the United States, it is really tricky.

"Wait." Luo Feng raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "If you can't open the situation before sunset in the evening...... then let the reserves go." ”

"Evening ......." Ouyang Xiu raised his head and looked at the sky, the sun had begun to gradually deviate from the overhead, and at this time, he really hated that he couldn't personally lead the troops into the city.

"Report." After the staff officer saluted, he suddenly quietly walked to the two of them and said in a low voice: "The chief of the general staff is here." ”

"The Chief of the General Staff is here?" Seeing that the staff officer was so mysterious, the two couldn't help but feel a little weird, it stands to reason that Chen Ping shouldn't be so mysterious when he came to the front line, could it be ......!

looked at each other, and the two suddenly guessed a little.

"On the left, watch out for the machine gun!"

As soon as Jiang Yan shouted, a string of bullets suddenly came out from behind the rubble, chirping under his feet, and he quickly turned around and hid behind the cheetah.

The 37-mm assault gun quickly spun over, aimed at the firing point, and suddenly pulled out a long tongue of fire, and in the sound of the gunning, the American machine gun point was quickly resolved.

"Rush, rush!"

Seeing the machine gun ignited, Jiang Yan shouted and rushed to the rubble pile with a few soldiers, and after a few shots killed the American soldiers who were not yet dead, he just pasted a brick wall behind him, and a few sparks burst out on the wall, only to see a few American soldiers poking out of the window on the second floor opposite.

"Grandma!"

A bullet hit the wall next to Jiang Yan's steel helmet, and the exploded stone hit his face, and immediately pulled out a blood mark, and he was angry and immediately aimed at the window and shot a point, and then raised his hand to the soldier opposite.

A young soldier across the street understood this, immediately pulled out a grenade, took a breath, rushed into the street, and then turned around and threw the grenade into the second-floor window.

"Boom......."

The explosion exploded from the second floor, and several American soldiers who were hiding there flew out in the billowing smoke, and as soon as they landed, they were shot several more times by the soldiers.

The little soldier who threw the grenade clenched his fist excitedly, and just as he was about to return to the squad, a dozen American soldiers suddenly appeared at the intersection of the front street in the distance, dragging a 75mm gun to a halt.

"75 guns! Lie down! ”

Jiang Yan's eyes were bloodshot, and at the same time as he shouted to lie down, the sound of the cannon had already sounded, and the front end of the cheetah that was out of reach suddenly exploded into a ball of sparks, igniting a raging fire, and the little soldier was also blown to the ground by the explosion, and the shrapnel was inserted in his back It was particularly scary.

"Help, save!"

"Medic!"

"Medic!"

"Machine guns, suppress! Come out, come out. ”

Jiang Yan quickly ran to the burning tank to rescue the tank crew who crawled out of it, such a close range of 75mm shells is fatal to the cheetah, especially this kind of narrow street that cannot move at high speed.

Seeing that the raid worked, the American soldiers did not like to fight, and immediately dragged the cannon back to the street corner, and the bullet did not hurt them except for hitting a US soldier running behind.

"Company commander, I can't see them, I can't see them!"

The leader of the second squad held a rifle with a scope and shouted loudly, if this cannon is not killed, the entire company will be suppressed here and unable to move, so Jiang Yan saw that the American army ran away with a single shot, and he was so angry that he stomped his feet, and shouted to the soldier carrying an oversized sniper rifle behind him: "Big head, above, kill them!" ”

When the big head saw the company commander pointing to a windmill tower not far away, he immediately beckoned two comrades to rush over, but when they pushed open the door and walked to the top of the tower, they found that two Yankees, who looked like civilians, were holding a machine that looked a bit like a movie in the army, and shot at the street.

Mel was so frightened by the Chinese soldiers who suddenly broke in that he cried out, huddled in the corner holding a white flag and kept shivering, Griffith was also frightened, but he was anxious to protect the camera, and hurriedly threw himself on it and shouted: "Civilians, we are civilians, no guns!" ”

"What are they shouting?"

"Hell knows!"

"Shut up!"

"Shut up! Go to the edge! ”

After kicking Griffith and Mel into the corner, the big head really didn't have the heart to deal with the two Yankees who had not yet raised the white flag, and after letting one of them watch them, they immediately ran to the air window and set up the heavy sniper rifle that had just been equipped with the reconnaissance company of the elite troops.

Holding the camera still spinning, Griffith quietly pointed the camera at the large head of an oversized rifle that he thought was strange, with a cap on the muzzle and a large shape.

After pulling the bolt of the gun and pushing a thick rice bullet into the chamber, the big head immediately searched for the position of the 75 gun close to the scope.

The location is not very good, and he can only see some faintly, but a disc thing still makes his eyebrows skip a beat, and he shouted: "Tell the company commander, don't go forward, they still have a disc!" ”

The disc is the soldier's nickname for the Lewis 77mm rifle, because the machine gun has a strange shape and a large round ammunition disc on it.

The comrades-in-arms next to him immediately stood up, gesturing the shape of the disc with their hands to the street below, and Jiang Yan, who was still thinking about impacting once when he saw the gesture, immediately asked everyone to squat down.

The machine gun is a big threat to the infantry, much more powerful than the artillery, so after the tank is unusable, no one can pass without destroying the machine gun.

Griffith looked at the three Chinese soldiers curiously, but he didn't dare to move anymore, because a gun was still pointed at him, and even for the sake of Mel, he didn't want to provoke the other party at this time.

The big head carefully searched for the target, and when a small blowhole appeared in the scope, revealing half of the heavy's head, he slammed the trigger.

"Bang......."

Griffith only heard a more gunfire than usual in his ears exploding, and then the seemingly solid wall on the street corner in the distance was shattered.

Cold sweat ran down, this is a cannonball? Or bullets!

"Mom!"

Seeing that he had missed, he scolded his mother again and again, quickly filled the second bullet, endured the pain in his shoulder, and aimed at the American machine gunner who was about to run.

Bang!

Another shot rang out, and Griffith saw only that the American soldier holding the machine gun had his body cut open as if something had cut it, and his upper and lower bodies burst open, and blood and flesh were sprinkled all over the street.

"Oh God!" Seeing this scene, Mel was already so frightened that he was wetting, and Griffith was also trembling all over, he didn't know if the camera had captured this scene, but he believed that the soldier in front of him who was lying on the ground and operating an oversized rifle was really terrible, and if he pointed the muzzle of the gun at himself, he was afraid that he would .......

"Old!"

Seeing the meritorious service, the big head licked his lips and quickly pushed in the third bullet, and the comrades around him immediately re-touched a magazine and stood by.

Bang.

In the third shot, the American soldier who saw only one probe had just revealed a little steel helmet brim, and the bullet directly penetrated the wall of the street corner and hit him on the head, and when the body fell forward on the street, Griffith found that his head was completely gone, and the blood in his neck was gushing out like a spring.

Since the Mi sniper rifle magazine can only hold three bullets, the big head had to stop changing the magazine, but fortunately, the American troops were also frightened by these two shots and hid on the street corner and did not dare to probe again.

"Boom, boom, boom......."

Just as the big head had just changed the magazine, the 80mm recoilless gun opened fire, aiming at a series of three shells on the street corner, and suddenly made a hole in the wall of the street corner.

The big head's eyes are red, and his vision is so good! So he immediately aimed at the American troops next to the 75-mm cannon and fired a fourth shot.

Bang. The shoulders and head were directly flattened.

Bang, the fifth shot. Broke a thigh.

Bang, sixth shot. It was crooked, and it hit the gun mount, and suddenly the gun mount scattered and fell to the ground.

The seventh shot, the eighth shot .......

Griffith's hands and feet were cold, staring blankly at the big head that fired, changed magazines and fired again, this is a good opportunity to see the Chinese soldiers up close, it is simply watching an extremely cruel killing show!

Especially that big gun, which is almost synonymous with death, whether it is a stone wall, a brick wall, or steel, as long as it is targeted, it will be penetrated without exception, as for the ...... soldiers who were hit, no one could survive at all, not a stump or a broken leg, or simply a head was blown up, or broken in two!

God, Jehovah!

Two dive bombers finally solved the whole problem, and 250 kilograms of high-explosive bombs exploded along the entire street, and hundreds of American soldiers were all bought under the rubble without even shouting.

After the three tanks in the back came up, the big head stood up with satisfaction, rubbed his shoulders, swept past the two frightened Yankees, looked at the white flag again, and cracked his yellow teeth: "I'm in a good mood today, I decided to abide by the military regulations and not kill the prisoners, let's go!" ”

When Griffith followed Mel, who was holding the white flag, out of the windmill tower where he was hiding under the muzzle of the terrible big gun in the big head, he was completely frightened by the scene in front of him, only to see the plane hovering overhead, and a terrible scream kept coming.

Explosions reverberated throughout the city of Los Angeles, littering every street with dead bodies, and the explosions pushed houses in patches and buried tens of thousands of American soldiers in the rubble.

Shouts, screams, and flames illuminate Los Angeles in the evening.

Suddenly, he came up with a name for his film.

An hour later, Griffith and Mel were taken away by a jeep with the camera, and a few years later, a World War documentary filmed on the front lines was approved for release by China.

The name is.

"The Battle of Los Angeles".

On January 5, 1917, after paying the price of 7,331 dead and wounded (including 1,200 killed and more than 3,600 injured in the tragic street fighting alone), Los Angeles, an important deep-water port city in California, was breached five days ahead of schedule.

In the fierce battle of two days and two nights, a total of 110,000 American troops were killed, 130,000 were captured, and countless supplies, weapons and ammunition were captured.

At this point, the Chinese Army has laid a big wedge between San Diego and San Francisco, the two major fortress cities on the west coast of the United States!

On 9 January, the second batch of 88 minesweepers arrived off the coast of Los Angeles, and the Chinese General Staff demanded that the sea transportation channel must be opened within 12 days to prepare for the arrival of the main force and a full-scale attack.

The West Coast is suddenly stormy!
