Chapter 2509 Bloody Coast 5

The Japanese had been hiding giant cannons for the first time were covered with American blood during the first attack! The first destroyed tank landing ship was hit by four shells and broke into two pieces! A raging fire spread rapidly from the hull. A few minutes later, accompanied by the violent explosion of fuel and internal ammunition, a storm swept across the beach hundreds of meters. At this time, other landing ships that had already rushed to the beach were waiting for the butcher knife flying from a distance like lambs to be slaughtered.

"God, save the US Army!" Marshall, who was still in the fleet at this time, couldn't help but sighed at the burning landing ship in the distance. "No, we must do something! Contact the Navy immediately. I hope they will suppress the Japanese long-range artillery positions for the United States at all costs. We cannot watch the US Army officers and soldiers landing on the beach being driven into the sea like this!" Marshall said to the navy's liaison officers.

"Sir, this is impossible. Even if our 14-inch gun is used to charge, it will definitely not hit the Japanese heavy artillery position hidden behind the mountain. Their location is too tricky, and it is in a dead corner of fire." The naval liaison explained.

"Then we can't watch our people be killed by the Japanese like this, absolutely not!" Marshall roared angrily.

"Listen to me, the first step is to contact the aircraft carrier-based aircraft troops immediately and let them carry bombs to suppress the Japanese artillery positions in the distance, without asking for destruction, but seeking to be unable to shoot for the time being. The second step is to immediately order the US troops who have already landed to launch an assault! If you do not want to be driven into the sea or be killed, then you must let your soldiers rush into the Japanese defense line, and then use your light weapons to tangle with the Japanese army in the trenches. The tank troops move to open land. There are no landmarks in these places, and the Japanese cannot easily complete the shooting settlement. Moreover, the hit rate of moving tanks with long-range artillery attacks is very low. The Japanese will definitely not do this." Major General Karls said on the side.

At the most critical moment, the performance of the Germans was still worthy of the Americans' rewards. After a comprehensive analysis of the battlefield situation, Major General Karls gave the best solution under the current situation! The naval gun cannot reach it, so it can only be suppressed by carrier-based aircraft. Although Major General Karls did not know how the Japanese gun positions were arranged, he knew that even if they were shooting at such a long distance, even the 220mm Holy King Kong artillery or the 194mm GPF artillery would be very high. The Japanese could not build a rotatable closed turret at a large elevation angle. Therefore, the most likely result was that the Japanese built an open-air reinforced concrete cannon nest on the gun positions and finished it!

It is difficult to directly destroy a heavy artillery position with modern aircraft. However, because the operators are in the open air, it is possible to use bombs and machine guns to suppress them. Therefore, sending carrier-based aircraft to suppress them and alleviate the pressure on the front line is the most realistic way!

What about the current landing troops? It is impossible to withdraw. If the conditions do not allow it, the US military will not allow it to fail in the first wave of landing. So good, if you cannot retreat, you can only attack! At one time, you use the firepower of the battleship to detonate the minefield and suppress the Japanese howitzer, and then the armored troops and infantry forcefully attack the Japanese defense line.

As long as the infantry can occupy a section of the Japanese position, there is no need to worry too much about the Japanese ultra-long-range artillery, because after all, this is the Japanese, not on the Western Front. The Japanese do not have so many long-range artillery and shells to cover every inch of land. The infantry uses the Japanese trenches to stabilize their position, and then develop their infantry firepower advantages to continue moving forward. As for the tanks? Let's stay on the beach to find a hidden place. Anyway, the tanks are quite solid. Unless they are hit directly, nothing can threaten these iron guys, at least the wolf tanks are like this!

As for how to get up the subsequent troops, how to solve the Japanese long-range artillery? The previous question is easier to answer. It is inconvenient during the day, so transport it at night. As for the Japanese long-range firepower? At present, only carrier-based aircraft can be suppressed, and it is not easy to completely remove it. Naval guns cannot reach it, and the bombs of a single-engine carrier-based aircraft are really not enough for a 220mm heavy cannon with a weight of more than 20 tons...

"Very good, that's it, I'll contact the navy immediately." The naval liaison officer on the side quickly began to prepare for relevant work, and Marshall on the side also began to adjust the landing plan. At least before the Japanese long-range artillery was suppressed, the troops that were subsequently riding on the landing ship to the beach could no longer go!

The Japanese really cherish their shells. After destroying several landing ships that were unloading, half of the terrifying long-range artillery stopped firing. Although there were still a large number of American soldiers on the beach, and although some tanks had already been put into battle. This situation not only surprised the Germans, but also made the Americans a little weak. After all, according to the principle of the Western Front, let alone Xu Jin's barrage during the attack, even before the battle started, it would be normal to suppress the firepower for more than one day!

"Start an attack now!" Taking advantage of the rare opportunity, the commander of the front line issued an offensive order. But after the long-range naval guns cleared the remaining minefield, he rushed up first! However, when he approached about 400 yards, a large number of firepower points suddenly appeared, causing Patton's armored forces to suffer the second large-scale reduction in today's current period!

Accompanied by the sound of high-speed metal collision and explosion, Patton felt that the front of his eyes suddenly became dark, and then the entire tank was trembling. Then, one after another, one after another, the shells flew out of the corners and hit the tanks rushing in front. The harsh sound of the shell impact caused by the impact, and the sound of the twisting and breaking of the armored back plate filled Patton's ears. At this time, the tank was like a small boat shaking in the waves, which could capsize at any time under the continuous attack.

Inside the shaking car body, Patton finally grabbed the handrail inside the turret, and then quickly pulled a handle next to it with quick eyes! Bang bang! With a few sounds of undetectable explosions, several smoke bombs were shot out. After a few seconds, a ball of smoke covered the front of the tank, which gave the driver the opportunity to withdraw from the battle in the tank that had been hit by several cannons.

The Japanese controlled the distance very accurately. When the tank was evacuated 800 meters away, no more artillery fired at Patton, so that Patton could even quietly stretch out his head to check the tank's losses.

"How is the situation? It's really not easy for us to survive just now. I felt that the god of death was floating above my head, but he still survived." The gunner said.
