Chapter 1456: Landing on Midway Island (2/2)
This 40mm gun has blossomed everywhere and has become a general-purpose gun for Germany. Although its caliber is not big enough, its rate of fire is enough to make up for its shortcomings, because it is a continuous fire weapon!
The artillery shells flew past, hit the beach, hit the anti-aircraft artillery position, the anti-aircraft artillery that had not been deployed, the gunners were still nervously adjusting the shooting at Zhu Yuan, and the terrible artillery shell flew.
”Boom!” The tractor in front was blown up, the fire light illuminates the beach and other antiaircraft artillery, and the island navy's attack is even more fierce.
In addition to the naval guns that landed on the ship's surface, the naval guns of the escorting heavy cruisers also started shooting. One after another, the shells pierced the night sky and opened fire violently toward the beach.
”Boom!” The 203 mm naval gun fired. With just one shot, a large hole was blasted. The entire beach position was shaking violently. They didn't know what they would bring to their troops by doing so. Consequences, this is digging a hole for yourself!
”School, we can't resist it anymore, we have to retreat!” An adjutant shouted loudly beside Lord School. He covered his head with his hand, lying on the side, not far away, with a 203 mm naval gun. The explosion of his shells gave him too much shock.
Under the bombardment of islanders like this, we will suffer heavy casualties on the unsafe beaches~~No, we have to stop here. ”Lord School said: ”If we can't prevent the islanders from landing, then we lose. ”
There are not many troops on the island at all. Only by blocking here and preventing them from landing can they defend the island. If the islanders come, they have no other choice but to surrender.
Although their shelling was fierce, it would not last long because they were also about to land.
Sure enough, the shelling stopped for only three minutes. At this time, the landing ship in front of it had already rushed towards the beach.
what happened?
It's not reasonable! Ordinary landing ships stop far away from the beach, and then the sailors will jump into the water and rush towards this side. When they are wading through the water, they have the best chance to destroy them with a machine gun.
But no. At this time, the fire light has illuminated the beach. When they saw the landing ships, they rushed fiercely, not afraid of running aground!
Landing on the beach directly sends the troops to the beach, which can greatly reduce the casualties of the troops on the charge, which is the significance of the existence of the landing ship.
The foremost landing ship quickly wiped the beach and rushed forward. The bottom of the ship rubbed against the beach and made a squeaking sound. Then, it stopped.
The front hatch opened, and the inner fire boats moved out.
The internal fireboat is an amphibious tank and the main force of the island navy's equipment. Since it does not need to float on the water and directly ashore, it has no additional pontoons. After the hatch is opened, they drive out quickly.
Landing on the beach, with tanks, landing is much easier!
The foremost inner fire boat drove more than 30 meters, and then disappeared with a bang.
