The Rise of Australia
Chapter 884 All-out Attack
Although the headquarters of these two C divisions possess a certain amount of anti-aircraft weapons, it is inevitably a bit impossible to shoot down Australasia's all-metal frame aircraft.
After some attempts, the island nation's army finally gave up the idea of using anti-aircraft weapons to shoot down the Australasian aircraft, and instead chose to completely hide its headquarters.
But the problem is, now that the headquarters has been exposed, it becomes very difficult to hide it.
In order to deal a fatal blow to the island country's army, the Australasian Air Force adopted the most arrogant strategy, which was carpet bombing.
The good news is that most of these fighters and bombers take off from aircraft carriers, and naturally they can also obtain ammunition supplies from aircraft carriers.
Although the ammunition of the aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier is also limited, it is still no problem to support this bombing.
After spending more than an hour replenishing ammunition, the Australasian Air Force launched a carpet bombing of the surrounding areas where the two C Division headquarters were located.
I don't care whether the bomb will hit the civilians of the island nation. For the Australasian Air Force, there is only one task at this time, which is to destroy the command headquarters of the island nation's army and leave their C-type divisions with already low combat effectiveness leaderless. All we can do is sit back and wait for death.
The bombing was still very successful. The carpet bombing successfully destroyed the headquarters of the two divisions, and killed the division commander of the division near the port, the Three Dogs on the Island, head-on.
Although the Australasian Air Force did not know who was killed by the bombing, the destruction of the command structures of the two divisions was still very important.
Without the timely command of the two division headquarters, the various infantry regiments of the division suddenly became chaotic.
Although there are infantry brigades above the infantry regiments, each brigade has two infantry regiments with a total of tens of thousands of troops. It is still very difficult to quickly issue orders for a combat plan involving tens of thousands of people.
The Air Force launched another air attack on this division, successfully disrupting the order of the entire division and even making some soldiers afraid to charge the enemy. The entire division had a tendency to collapse.
The islanders are indeed helpless. The Australasian air force was a great, even fatal, threat to them.
But the problem is that because their own air force has been eliminated by Australasia in advance, they have no means of countermeasures when facing an attack by the Australasian Air Force.
While launching a charge against the enemy's defensive positions, they also had to be careful about the threats posed by aircraft in the sky. This was simply too much for this C division to deal with.
For the soldiers of this division, it was a double torture. If they rush forward, the enemy's firepower will break them into pieces, and the bloody appearance of their comrades makes them frightened.
If you don't rush forward, the gendarmerie within the island country's military will not be a joke. Although the military police are small in number, they do have the power to supervise operations on the battlefield.
If any of the island's soldiers stagnates or even escapes, the gendarmerie has the right to execute them on the spot.
It is precisely because of the power of the military police of the island country that these soldiers are still very afraid of the military police. The gendarmerie was behind them, making these soldiers no longer human inside and out. They would die if they moved forward or backward.
Australasia does not care about the chaos in the island nation's military.
At this time, nearly three hours have passed since the attack, and the transport aircraft formation should have almost arrived in the northern Philippines.
This also means that they only need to hold on for more than three hours before they can wait for the support of another batch of more than 6,000 soldiers.
More importantly, Australasia never thought of relying solely on its own paratroopers. After the paratroopers gradually control the situation, a new round of landing battles will be launched, leaving the island nation's troops struggling to cope.
Sure enough, about ten minutes later, a new round of landings by Philippine and Kalimantan troops was launched.
It was past three o'clock in the morning, more than two hours before dawn.
In the darkness, countless soldiers launched a fierce and cruel war. The loser will fall into the abyss forever, and the winner will also face another gamble of fate.
Different from the previous attack. The previous landing battle was obviously carried out in a controlled manner. The purpose of Australasia was more to train troops rather than to quickly conquer the Ryukyu Islands.
But after dispatching paratroopers this time, Australasia obviously wants to attack the Ryukyu Islands with all its strength.
In addition to using the air force and army, in terms of navy, Australasia also dispatched a luxurious lineup of 6 aircraft carriers, 2 battleships, and 3 battlecruisers as the main warships.
The purpose of these navies is naturally to use powerful ship-based artillery to let the islanders feel the baptism of artillery fire.
Because it was a general offensive, the navy was not stingy. A large number of artillery fire tilted towards the station of the island country's army, like a particularly heavy rainstorm.
boom!
Bang bang bang!
The continuous loud noises were like thunder, and the explosion flames after touching the land and facilities were like lightning of judgment.
No one will underestimate the power of ship-borne artillery, even the artillery of battleships that were behind the times 20 years ago.
You know, the caliber of the ship-borne main guns of that era was also extremely exaggerated at over 300 mm.
When such artillery is used to bombard land armies, it is like a cannon hitting mosquitoes. It can only be said to be devastating.
Even the defensive positions, artillery positions, etc. built by the island nation's army based on the terrain are as fragile as tofu when faced with bombardment by such large-caliber artillery.
What's even more terrible is that the width of the Ryukyu Islands is not vast, and basically the entire archipelago is within the bombing range of the navy.
For the island troops stationed on the Ryukyu Islands, starting from now is their most fatal and torturous moment.
Perhaps the two island country C divisions stationed around the city and port should be lucky. Because the Australasian army was already fighting them at close range, their location was not included in the navy's bombing list.
Otherwise, what the ship-based artillery destroyed was not their beliefs, but their spirit that they had always adhered to on the battlefield.
When the spirit is destroyed, that is when they turn from normal people into madmen and psychopaths.
There are no such examples. Because the battlefield is so cruel, many recruits who were just ordinary farmers will suffer from post-war syndrome and other battlefield-related diseases even if they are lucky enough to survive the battlefield.
The milder ones will be nervous and restless in their own lives, unable to concentrate and have difficulty sleeping. The more severe ones may even directly turn into a madman, tortured by the cruel scenes of the battlefield day and night.
Obviously, there are limits to the mental endurance of ordinary people. Even if they are trained soldiers, their strong psychology will be affected when they suddenly face a more cruel scene.
Of course, in areas bombarded by ship-based artillery, it is highly unlikely that legs and arms will be broken.
It would not be a problem for a large-scale artillery of this caliber to sink a battleship entirely covered with steel armor, let alone ordinary people who are just flesh and blood.
Generally, when bombed by this kind of ship-based artillery, there will be basically nothing left except a small amount of clothing fragments.
"Come on! The general said that if we attack Naha today, everyone will have fresh steaks to eat! The first infantry formation to enter Naha will have rewards for everyone!" Commands at all levels in the Philippines and Kalimantan The officer shouted wildly.
For these Filipinos and Kalimantans, there are only two things that attract them most, one is delicious food and the other is generous rewards.
Food can satisfy the hunger, and rewards can be taken home to the family to improve their lives.
After all, the economy of the Philippines and Kalimantan is not very good at this time, and the living environment of Filipinos and Kalimantan people is naturally not very good either.
If they join the Australasian army, they will have enough meat to eat and their families will have a better life. This is why they are willing to sacrifice their lives for Australasia.
Of course, Australasia's control over all levels of their government was one of the reasons they had to join the Australasian Army to serve their lives.
Especially in the Philippines, which is more educated, this war has been publicized in the Philippines as a life and death war between the island country and the Philippines.
Because Australasia has controlled public opinion in the Philippines, reports in the Philippine media have described the importance of this war to the Philippines, and focused on what a cruel country the island nation is.
In other words, for these Filipinos, they were not fighting for Australasia, but to defend their country.
What's more, there are tangible benefits for them to participate in this war. Once they have made meritorious service, their children will get the opportunity to study in Australasia and become masters in the Philippines.
After several years of development, Australasia has tightened its control over the Philippines.
Every year, a small number of Filipinos who successfully graduate from studying abroad in Australasia, as long as they return to the Philippines, they will definitely be superior people with status and status.
It is this huge improvement in identity and status that makes many Filipinos full of expectations and even their lifelong dream to study in Australasia.
But unfortunately, it is very difficult to study in Australasia.
Except for the small number of places that Australasia opens to high-level Filipino officials every year, ordinary Filipinos who want to study abroad in Australasia must either bear a large amount of expenses or have talents that far exceed others, that is, geniuses.
This also makes study abroad opportunities in Australasia very popular in the Philippines. Even Hispanics who are already Filipinos generally hope to study abroad in Australasia.
Because in Australasia, they can access the top academic environment and teaching resources in Oceania and Asia. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is world-class and top-notch.
Except for a few universities in Europe that have been established longer and are more famous, Australasian universities can be said to be as good as any school.
For Arthur, it would be great if he could gain the loyalty of the Philippine Army by paying only a certain number of study abroad places.
The cost of studying abroad is not large for Arthur. After all, those wealthy Filipino businessmen also provide a large amount of funds to Australasian universities every year.
And the international students trained by these study abroad places, those with relatively good abilities, will also be strived by Australasia to stay in the country.
In other words, such behavior will not only not become a financial burden to Australasia, but will also attract more people to Australasia, basically making money without losing money.
