Chapter 564: Battle of Nanjing (2)

u?

As soon as the landing ladder was lowered, the tanks and combat vehicles on the landing ships first rushed through, covering the bullets flying everywhere with steel armor, and the infantry in the rear followed closely behind, with the fire support of the landing ships, with the armored vehicles seizing the beachhead, and quickly occupied various strategic points.

These sudden landing ships were like a wedge, the first to scuttle into the devil's river defense front, and the subsequent ships began to quickly land in the occupied areas, and the follow-up troops poured in.

"Bring them down!" Zhao Sanwan roared angrily while using a one-meter-heavy machine gun on the left side of the bow of the ship to strafe the devil's position on the shore.

The attacks of the vanguard army were not all smooth sailing. Zhao Sanwan and his company took the LM type mechanized landing boat, and this landing boat did not need to take a landing ship to cross the river at all, and could drive directly from Jiangbei to Jiangnan. It could have carried a 30-ton tank and combat vehicle, but at this time it was carrying only one LV-4 amphibious combat vehicle.

But before they could get on the shore, the devils on the other side launched a frantic blockade.

A 37 mm anti-tank buried in the bunker hit the wheelhouse, which was protected by 6 mm of high-elastic steel, with only two shots. Two of the three crew members in the wheelhouse were killed and one was injured, and the pilot's control was lost, and the landing ship could only stop on the river and drift.

"Damn, why didn't you lose it with so much artillery fire before?" Zhao Sanwan shook his hand and raised his helmet sharply, and said angrily. However, he also knew in his heart that no matter how dense the firepower was, he would not be able to attack every inch. This dark bunker of the devil has made a very solid anti-artillery improvement, and as long as the heavy artillery from the opposite shore is not directly hit, it will not cause much damage.

As a result, the people and the vanguard army fought more, and the research on anti-artillery became more and more sophisticated. If it weren't for the fact that their river fire prevention point had been clearly detected by various means such as vanguard military spies in advance, and they were bombarded with heavy artillery and giant cannons one by one, I am afraid that crossing the river this time would not be so easy. Even with detailed reconnaissance, there will still be leaky fish like this bunker.

Although the reinforced concrete confession from a huge crater in the distance has been destroyed by the giant artillery, the remaining two bunkers are horns of each other, controlling this more convenient landing beachhead, four heavy machine guns are not much of a threat to the landing ships, but the two 37 anti-tank guns are very threatening.

When Zhao Sanwan saw that the landing boat had lost control and stopped, he realized the danger, and if he was hit by the devil's anti-tank artillery again, the loss would be even greater. The two LM-type mechanized landing boats also rushed up, suppressing the devil's position with a four-meter heavy machine gun, but obviously the devil's bunker had been set up, in fact, they were not afraid of the suppression of the heavy machine gun, and their anti-tank guns aimed at the uncontrolled landing boat that Zhao Sanwan was riding and began to bombard.

"Boom!" A loud bang exploded around Zhao Sanwan, and the heavy machine gun in front of him was also dumbfounded.

"Company commander! It's leaking! Zhao Sanwan wiped the blood on his face, and just shook his head, which was a little dizzy, when he heard Zhang Erniu behind him exclaim.

"Shout a bird, what's so scary!" Zhao Sanwan also had some drumming in his heart, half of the more than 50 people on the boat didn't know how to water, and that Zhang Erniu was a typical landlubber. Even though the ship was prepared with lifebuoys and life jackets produced by the pioneers, although the water of the Yangtze River was not frozen in February, it was still cold and biting, and even if it swam to the shore, it would have lost half of its life.

"Call for artillery emergency support!" Zhao Sanwan saw that although the rockets fired from a mechanized landing boat did not hit the target, the smoke and dust from the bombing made the devil's dark fortress firepower decrease slightly, and he regretted that there were not many rocket devices on the landing ship this time, only one or two chances, for the sake of safety, Zhao Sanwan still called for artillery support from his superiors.

A few minutes after the communication behind him called, Zhao Sanwan and their landing boat began to tilt after another shot, they heard the roar of an airplane in the sky overhead, penetrating the billowing gunpowder smoke and getting closer and closer, a gust of wind rolled up smoke and dust, and two Il-10 attack planes appeared in people's field of vision one after the other.

"Da Da Da!" The Type 92 anti-aircraft machine gun, which was equipped with an anti-aircraft machine gun mount on the devil's position, was the first to shoot into the sky. But its 7.7mm bullets were clearly tickling the thick-armored Il-10, and as the Il-10 in front of it dived, two 23mm chains of bullets slammed into the anti-aircraft machine gun position, immediately crushing the fire.

These actions did not stop the bomb of the Il-10, and a 100-kilogram bomb was dropped towards the coordinates.

"Boom!" A burst of flames rose into the sky, and a dark castle immediately flew into the sky.

The Il-10 that followed closely behind him also dropped the bomb, although it did not hit directly, but it also made the 37mm anti-tank gun of the bunker disappear. But the two dissatisfied Il-10s still did not let it go, and after another round of bombing, until the remaining bunker was bombed into the sky, they were satisfied with the same party and left.

"Rush for me!" Zhao Sanwan, who was holding back the fire in his belly, shouted loudly, the two most difficult bunkers were bombed away, and the remaining little devils could not resist the fire suppression of the heavy machine guns on the other landing boats and the crushing of the landing amphibious combat vehicles, and finally when Zhao Sanwan and most of their sunken landing boats were dragged and stranded in the shallows by the river, the surrounding positions had been conquered.

The devil is crazy to fight back, and there are a lot of such hard bones. But most of these premises soon disappeared with the fire support of the landed ships and the heavy artillery onslaught of the opposite shore and the bombardment from the air. Even some of the stubborn ones were crushed into pieces by the vanguard tanks and tanks that rushed up from other positions around them.

The vanguard army that crossed the river to attack would not be stopped at all, and the whole line of mercury broke through the devil's river defense.

……

"It's rare to see the pomp of this million-strong teacher crossing the river!" Guo Moruo stood on the lion ridge and sighed as he looked at the battlefield in the distance.

The recovery of the old capital is a major event, and people from all walks of life are also moved. In addition, Meng Xiang also came to the north of the Yangtze River, and representatives from all walks of life flocked to Jiangbei to express their condolences to the vanguard officers and soldiers who were waiting for the battle.

The vanguard army also actively received representatives of all walks of life in these labor forces. In the future, when Huaxia is about to be involved in a storm, being able to unite all the forces that can be united is the premise to ensure that the big ship of Huaxia can sail smoothly to the other side. With the vanguard army in control of the situation, Jiangbei is a relatively peaceful place, as long as it is not those military centers, it can allow these people to watch the battle from afar.

As soon as the war began, the delegates who had heard the news climbed the nearby Ping'an Heights one after another and looked at them with great sight.

Although the smoke of the battlefield obscured the sky at this time, and the sky was still a little gloomy, the sky was bright.

Climb high and look into the distance, under the river breeze, the gunpowder smoke is torn apart, and the river surface is unobstructed, and the scene of thousands of boats competing on the river surface is lu. From the 1095-ton LM medium landing ship to the 387-ton LLI large infantry landing ship, to the 12-ton LV vehicle personnel landing boat, large ships are spread all over the river.

Looking from afar, the old sails carrying supplies, the thick smoke of the diesel engines of the mechanized landing boats carrying tanks and combat vehicles mixed with the smoke of the battlefield, obscuring the sight of the people from afar, but the roars of those thoughts resounded on both sides of the Yangtze River.

At this time, looking from a high place, thousands of boats are competing for the ferry, as if rolling up a dark cloud of hundreds of kilometers from the north of the river to the south of the river.

"Great!" Liu Yazi next to him also responded. At this time, he felt that all the language was a little white, not enough to describe the scene of the army crossing the river in front of him.

"In this situation, how can there be no poetry and wine to help the fun?" Liu Yazi moved for a moment, and sighed without hitting the knot.

"Good!" Guo Moruo replied.

After he spoke, some people from the literary and artistic circles around him also responded. Although Meng Xiang doesn't look down on Lao Guo's character, Lao Guo is also one of the people who are in charge of this world at this time. Under the literary and artistic ideas of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending put forward by the vanguard army, Meng Xiang actually does not interfere with various trends of thought in the literary and artistic circles, and naturally does not interfere according to his own likes and dislikes.

And Liu Yazi is a veteran figure of the Central Party, and after the proposal of the two at this time, a group of literati began to make ink on the Shiling Ridge where they watched the battle.

Just as everyone was chanting poems and doing the right thing, at this time, someone on the periphery shouted: "Commander Meng is here!" ”

The arrival of these representatives, even Meng Xiang did not dare to ignore it, compared to the vanguard army has already controlled the Jiangfang in the south of the Yangtze River, the relieved Meng Xiang moved, walked out of the headquarters, and hurriedly met with the representatives from all walks of life who were not far from the headquarters.

Meng Xiang's arrival immediately caused a sensation among everyone, and his arrival made everyone excited, but there were also people from all walks of life, and there were people with other purposes when Meng Xiang asked everyone about the situation, and used the name of this poetry club to inexhaustibly compliment Commander Meng, who was ridiculed as a warlord, also came to a song.

Meng Xiang didn't know the purpose of some people, and there was still an indifferent smile on his face, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: "I'm sorry, great man, I'm going to plagiarize again!" ”ro@
