Third Reich: I took over power
Chapter 495
Off the coast of New Rodney, the Third Reich Navy was still frantically throwing cannonballs at the Imperial Army's positions where the sun never sets. Explosions sounded one after another. Amidst the violent explosions, the defense line of the 12th Army under the Imperial Army's 1st Group Army was turned into ruins at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Countless officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army were killed in the bombing.
On the sea, officers and soldiers of the 1st Marine Division of the Third Reich waited on the transport ship for the order to attack.
The 1st Army Marine Division has three infantry regiments and an artillery regiment, as well as an amphibious tank battalion and a helicopter group.
The amphibious tank battalion is equipped with sixty amphibious tanks. These amphibious tanks are modified on the basis of Wolf light tanks. Although the combat effectiveness is not strong, they can also provide the Marine Corps with good armor combat capabilities.
The helicopter brigade is equipped with 40 Odin helicopters, deployed on two amphibious assault ships. Provide fire support to Marine Corps soldiers during landing operations.
The amphibious assault ships of this era are not as tall as the amphibious assault ships of later generations. They are just warships with direct access to the deck. They are similar to small aircraft carriers and have a displacement of only more than 5,000 tons.
The first deck is the helicopter take-off and landing deck, and below is the hangar for parking helicopters.
The entry of helicopters into service allowed the Marine Corps of the Third Reich to receive more powerful fire support during landing operations. Although the Third Reich is still developing larger transport helicopters that can directly transport personnel. Once successful, the landing operation will undergo a huge change, from the current plane landing to a vertical landing.
"Aren't these guys in the Navy afraid of blowing up all those Anglo-Saxons? In that case, we still have to fight! Just go up and collect the bodies for them!"Major General Herman, commander of the 1st Marine Division, looked unhappy.
"General, the entire Imperial Army's 12th Army has 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers. Although the navy's cannons were powerful, it was impossible to kill them all. After we landed, we were still able to catch a lot of big fights." said Chief of Staff Colonel Nix.
"snort! Those guys in the Army have been waiting for the opportunity for a long time. After we go ashore and establish a solid beachhead, those guys will be eager to go ashore and take the initiative on the battlefield away from us."Major General Herman said.
Colonel Nix looked a little helpless:"General, there is no way to do this. Who makes our power too weak. If we can defeat the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets alone, there will be no need for the Army to intervene. Major General Herman shook his head:"
This is simply impossible!" The Empire on which the Sun Never Sets is a big country, and we cannot sustain it. We must rely on the army. If it is to deal with some small countries, maybe it can be done! In the future, maybe you can try it."
The fierce bombardment of the Third Reich Navy soon lasted for half an hour.
The defense line of the 12th Army of the Imperial Army, where the sun never sets, was almost destroyed by the fierce bombardment of naval guns.
And the Third Reich Navy's The naval guns also began to strike in depth.
"Order all the ministries, it's our turn to take the field. The 1st and 2nd regiments immediately attacked to open up a landing site. Amphibious tank battalion and helicopter brigade, ready to go!"Major General Hermann ordered
"Yes, General!"Colonel Nix immediately took his life.
The two marine regiments, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately launched a boarding battle.
One by one, the landing craft rushed towards the shore.
These landing craft, powered by diesel engines, had a piece of land in front of them. The baffle has an additional layer of armor. Although it is very weak, it can withstand direct machine gun fire. Each landing craft can carry a squad of soldiers.
Hundreds of landing craft rush towards the beach intensively.
In order to cover the navy The Marines landed, and several destroyers of the Navy even approached the sea only two or three kilometers away from the coast. They used naval guns and rapid-fire cannons to wildly bombard the Imperial Army's positions where the sun never sets, providing direct fire support for the Marine Corps.
"boom! boom! boom!"
The artillery shells hit the positions of the Empire Army like raindrops, tearing into pieces the soldiers of the Empire who had just entered the positions.
"Damn it, get into position quickly, the Germans are starting to land!"
"If you don't want to die, pick up a weapon and fight like a warrior! Don't act like a coward. That will only make you die faster!"
"Get into position quickly and prepare to fight!"
"Fight with the Germans for the empire on which the sun never sets!"
The officers of the 12th Army of the Imperial Army, where the sun never sets, drove the soldiers into the position like animals. As soon as the soldiers entered the position, overwhelming artillery shells came down, killing many soldiers of the Empire where the sun never sets. They were blown to pieces
"Fire!"
A low-level officer from the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Da da da!"
A heavy machine gun fired wildly, and the bullets hit the sea, causing splashes of water.
More heavy machine guns, light machine guns and rifles joined the shooting.
Dense bullets hit the baffle in front of the landing craft. , making a ping-ping-pong-pong sound, and sparks flying.
But these machine gun bullets were unable to penetrate the baffles of the landing craft, let alone harm the Marines inside.
"Artillery fire!"
A colonel officer from an empire where the sun never sets, his face was livid.
Although the artillery on the defense line had suffered heavy losses, some artillery survived.
In addition, the artillery deployed on the second-line position could also shoot into the sea.
These artillery They opened fire one after another, and the shells hit the sea one after another. After the explosion, high water jets were splashed.
"boom!"
A landing craft was hit by a shell on the spot and exploded. The fragile landing craft was torn apart in the explosion.
The heavily armed Marines suffered heavy casualties, and those who were lucky enough to survive also fell into the sea. Under such circumstances, they almost There was no possibility of survival.
Under the bombardment of the artillery of the Imperial Army, several landing craft in a row were sunk.
Fortunately, the landing craft of the Third Reich were small, and each one could only carry one squad of soldiers, so the losses were not significant. Not much.
If according to the original design of the Marine Corps, a landing craft had to carry a platoon of soldiers, the loss would be much greater. Spreading the soldiers out, although it will cost more money to build landing craft, But it can effectively reduce casualties._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
