Everything was planned. A squad quickly jumped off the landing craft along the open springboard. Except for a recruit who fell to his feet, the others stepped on the beach smoothly, and then the second squad! The colleagues on the landing craft next to him also began to rush out of the landing craft. The destroyer in the distance began to release smoke bombs to cover the landing. Everything was so orderly, breathing the air full of gunpowder and the sea flavor. Platoon Leader Homan felt extremely quiet, but the strange sounds from afar aroused his alert. Then, a long-lost sense of crisis surged into his heart!

"Leave the landing craft immediately, as soon as possible!" Homan shouted and jumped out of the side of the ship. At the moment he had just landed, a dazzling red light hit his landing craft. Then, with an explosion, a large piece of the landing craft was gnawed off, and several American soldiers who could not dodge were smashed into pieces. A few seconds later, a fire flashed from a distance, and the second shell flew over!

"Do not get rid of the landing craft, hurry up! This is the British 6-pound cannon! Don't come back, there are no living people on the ship!" Homan finally remembered this weapon that he had seen in the exercise field. At that time, in order to familiarize them, the instructors from Bavaria specially collected some of the seized items from the seized items and brought them to the United States. This 6-pound naval cannon that can be used to launch armor or anti-infantry is naturally among them. It is small in size and light in weight. After removing the shield, the barrel can almost be said to be close to the ground. The firing rate is as high as more than 15 rounds per minute! It is very fatal to infantry without protection.

Fortunately, the power of the 6-pound gun is limited and it uses high-explosive bombs, which is difficult to penetrate the entire hull. Therefore, Homan and his subordinates who came down first could quickly transfer to a covered area by relying on the cover of the hull. When the Japanese 6-pound rapid-fire gun fired a shell, the horn of the Japanese counterattack was finally blown, and countless bullets and small shells flew into a fire net in the air. Their first target was to rush to the landing craft on the beachhead, and then the US soldiers who could not dodge.

"If you can't find a suitable cover on the battlefield, then jump to a nearby bullet crater. In a battle, the probability of being hit by shells in a place twice in a row is very low. If you encounter it, it doesn't matter, it means that God is not going to let you go." Homan recalled what his instructor once taught, and the God of Luck did not abandon him in the end. There was a huge bullet crater not far away. It seemed that it was at least 8 inches of cannons. People don't have to worry about showing up when they stand inside!

"Damn it, now I'm the squad leader?" Homan looked at his colleagues around him, his nose was almost pissed. His platoon was a reinforced platoon. In addition to the three squads, there was also a Browning machine gun team. However, in the battle just now, at least 20 people stayed on the landing craft and did not run out. Looking at the landing craft that had been fired in the distance, the Japanese rapid-fire gun no longer attacked, it was estimated that the people above should be dead. Nearly two squads ran out, the worst thing was that the machine gun team was thrown inside. Homan and his colleagues only had rifles and 3 BARs in their hands.

The previous plan was impossible to try. According to the original plan, a company was equipped with an engineer squad. The former was responsible for clearing obstacles and the latter was responsible for covering and following up. Homan was the first platoon in his company to land. As a result, half of it was reimbursed within 5 minutes after he was on the court. More importantly, the engineer squad was also caught off guard and most of the firepower was killed, and the blasting equipment was lost! You can't go there, right?

"Collapse the troops and prepare to suppress the firepower points on the opposite side. In addition, find a few clever people to see if they can collect some weapons and ammunition around them." Homan was still very clear in the face of this situation. He knew that if he continued to recklessly, he would definitely hang up all the people. He took out a small mirror and picked it on the bayonet and looked through the reflection. Countless fire snakes were flying on the battlefield. Countless firepower points pressed almost all the landing US troops on the beach.

The rapid-fire guns that were firing in the distance kept attacking the stranded landing ships. Their locations were very hidden. The navy behind them could not know the locations of these rapid-fire guns. In this era, radio technology was still very backward, so it was not realistic to call for the support of the naval guns. The first wave of troops was suppressed, so the only chance was to look at the second wave! Because there were tanks in the second wave of landing troops!

"Damn it, why didn't the Navy use shells twice to land on the entire landing ground and then landing? These hateful guys." A soldier cursed and spit out the sand in his mouth. The US Navy in this era is still a little immature and lacks in all aspects, both in terms of quantity and quality. Because of the existence of the Japanese fleet, the US Navy must be careful about every shell, such as the support ships equipped with artillery, mortars and a large number of rocket launchers in World War II. At this time, the US Navy had no one. There was no reason, and I didn't expect it!

The former Fearless Battleships and Armored Cruisers of the four teams performed a fire suppression mission of 45 minutes before landing. According to the US military's plan, the main gun fire suppression time of the main ship shall not exceed 1 and a half hours! Otherwise, they will wipe out all the high-explosive bombs on the warship today!

The U.S. soldiers who landed were cursing the navy's inaction in anger. In fact, the navy has done a good job. In addition, the Japanese army has some problems in deployment. The howitzers above 100MM that were emerging at the beginning have been destroyed or suppressed. Therefore, the US military on the beach can now shrink into the wreckage of the landing craft, and survive between the craters and sand dams. Otherwise, if the Japanese medium-caliber howitzers could still be used, the people who survived would probably have to make a slight discount!

However, even so, with only machine guns and small and medium-caliber rapid-fire guns left on the first line of defense, the US military was still being pressed and fired. Even if there were destroyers' artillery less than 1,000 meters away from the shore, they were still supporting the army brothers who were fighting. In order to help these army brothers who were fighting, the US Navy was still very hard-working. At the risk of being attacked by remaining land guns, these small boats with a displacement of only 1,000 tons bravely rushed up and fired wildly with 127MM and 105MM artillery. However, due to the shooting boundary problem, the effect was limited. When a destroyer hit the remaining mine and was directly cut in half, the American destroyer did not dare to continue to approach the support. At this time, the cruel battle had just begun!
