Chapter 59
Tanks and infantry fighting vehicles crossed the Liuhe River through the pontoon bridge.
The 14th Division no longer had any hiding at this time.
The heavy artillery hidden in the rear also began to launch a large-scale artillery attack on the Liuhe pontoon bridge.
They were reinforced by a heavy artillery regiment.
A total of 24 150mm heavy cannons and 12 150mm heavy howitzers.
It has to be said that the Japanese were really patient.
During the three days of shelling, their guns were not moved once.
If these heavy artillery suddenly counterattacked, it would still cause some trouble to the left-wing army.
Especially at night, the air force could not be deployed.
The Japanese obviously knew this.
The reason why they did not move was that they did not want to expose these heavy artillery and wanted to use them at a critical moment.
And now is the critical moment for them.
Their sudden artillery attack still caused some casualties to the crossing troops.
A pontoon bridge was affected on the spot, and a section was directly blown up, and two Guardian main battle tanks were thrown into the river on the spot.
The sudden counterattack of the Japanese army did not make Ling Liang panic.
She looked at the rising water column of the Liu River and said,"Keep crossing the river. With the air force, they can't make any waves."
They have absolute air superiority.
The Japanese army's hidden artillery can't really make any waves.
""We found a large-scale artillery group behind the Japanese army and destroyed them.""
Suddenly, a series of MiG fighters and Intruder attack aircraft roared towards the rear of the Japanese army.
During this period, they also encountered some low-density anti-aircraft fire counterattacks.
The Japanese army still prepared some anti-aircraft weapons this time.
But they were basically anti-aircraft machine guns, which did not pose any threat.
The Intruder is a professional ground attack aircraft of the Red Alert Corps.
Its performance is a very good attack aircraft even in the late World War II.
In particular, it is equipped with an advanced aiming system. This thing has a high-precision gyroscope as an auxiliary, and the attack accuracy is quite high.
When performing a 45-degree angle posture, its accuracy is not worse than that of a dive bomber.
Faced with the swarming aircraft, the Japanese heavy artillery was also a little panicked.
Although all their heavy artillery had shelters.
But facing the 500KG-level bombs, they still couldn't stand it.
The air force fighters licked the ground and suppressed the Japanese heavy artillery.
At this time, 12 railway guns also joined the ranks.
A 450mm caliber shell, even if it is dozens of meters away, is enough to destroy their artillery fortifications.
After all, this is not Iwo Jima, but a plain area without complex terrain.
"Let the 15th Regiment go to reinforce and stop them."
Matsugi Naoaki roared in a low voice with his eyes red.
The Liuhe River was easily broken through, which filled him with panic.
After crossing the river, the Guardian main battle tank was invincible on the battlefield. It easily opened up a safe crossing site.
When a certain number of multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles gathered, they began to attack the Japanese front-line positions.
In this terrain, the advantages of the armored forces were fully utilized.
However, the Japanese army was also very crazy.
Their suicide attacks also made the tank troops dare not rush too fast.
Some guardians who broke away from the cover of the multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed by the Japanese suicide attacks.
Although the Guardian main battle tank is thick-skinned and comparable to the King Tiger, it can't withstand the detonation of a large number of explosive packs in turn.
""Steady and steady, steady progress."
This is the strategy formulated by Ling Liang.
He has an absolute advantage in equipment, so he just needs to crush them steadily all the way. There is no need to rush for success and increase casualties.
The Japanese reinforcements also came up through the tunnel fortifications.
The two sides began to fight on the Liuhe defense line.
The 1st Division also fought one stronghold after another, trench after trench.
"Let the Second Division go as well."
After the crossing route was completely stabilized,
Ling Liang decisively issued an order.
The Second Mechanized Infantry Division, as the general reserve, also joined the war.
Now he not only has equipment advantages and air advantages, but also advantages in manpower.
The battle reports from the front line were transmitted to Jiang Fan like snowflakes.
In fact, there is no need for battle reports. Through the Red Alert Base, he can clearly see the situation on the front line.
When he is free, he basically stays in the base to watch the live broadcast.
Not to mention, the crossing of the river in Liuhe made him excited.
He wished he could be a part of it.
But this is just a thought after all.
It is absolutely impossible for him to go to the battlefield, but he can find time to inspect it.
Of course, it must be done in absolute safety. Under full guarantee.
Ling Liang is in charge of Xinmin himself, so it is only a matter of time to take it down.
It depends on how many days the 14th Division can hold out.
In Xinmin, the two sides launched a fierce battle around the Liuhe defense line.
Xie Ning did not let the troops rest.
Instead, he launched a general attack on the Japanese 10th Division in the direction of Anshan.
Compared with Xinmin, the terrain of Anshan is more complicated.
On one side is a plain, and on the other side is a mountainous terrain.
The Japanese army built a large number of fortifications based on the mountainous terrain of Anshan.
The most troublesome of them are the two highlands of Shuanglong Mountain and Dong'anshan.
