Chapter 108 Kamikaze Special Attack Operation

For three consecutive days, the Datang Naval Air Force bombed the Japanese fortifications in the harbor area, paralyzing the Japanese fortifications and severely damaging the Japanese garrison troops.

Three days later, taking advantage of the favorable cover of the fire in the Fortress and the thick smoke covering the sky, the Tang Army's First Marine Division and the Second Marine Division began to carry out a beach landing battle in Dalian Bay.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

More than 30 Tang army light cruisers and destroyers lined up along Dalian Bay, and the main guns were aimed at the beachheads of the coast and opened fire violently.

The sound of artillery roared, and a round of artillery shells roared, exploding on the coast, destroying the anti-landing obstacles arranged by the Japanese army, suppressing the defensive firepower of the Japanese beachheads, and covering the Tang army's landing troops approaching.

As Tang army landing ships approached near the coast, Tang Marines climbed down from rope ladders and took assault boats to charge quickly towards the beach.

Although most of the fortress artillery in Lushun Fortress were destroyed, the Japanese army from Jinzhou brought two more heavy artillery regiments to strengthen the coastal defense of Dalian Bay.

At this time, when the Japanese army learned that the Tang army had begun to land, they immediately stopped hiding, and pulled out a cannon and opened fire in the direction of the coast.

The Japanese artillery shells exploded on the sea, stirring up huge water columns. The sea water sprinkled in the sky fell into the assault boat, slapped on the Tang army's helmet and made a crackling sound.

For the officers and soldiers of the Tang Marine Corps, they were well-trained, and they had fought with the Japanese army for many years. They had experienced more than once this kind of military operation of landing on the beach and had long been used to it.

However, when they occasionally saw the assault boats of their nearby companions being destroyed by Japanese artillery shells, they were still a little scared.

No one is not afraid of death, even the elite troops. However, the Tang army's assault boats were extremely fast, and few Japanese artillery shells could hit accurately. In most cases, they exploded around and huge waves knocked over the assault boats.

Soon, the first batch of assault boats had already arrived, and the Tang soldiers jumped off one after another, alerting and launching a deep attack. The Japanese defensive forces around them were clear.

A small hill suddenly burst into flames, blocking the way the Tang army advanced.

It was a machine gun castle with six machine guns. It was only activated at a critical moment. It caught the Tang army off guard and suppressed a whole company of Tang soldiers behind a pile of huge rocks on the beach.

Faced with such a machine gun castle, it was difficult for the Tang army to take it down in a short time, and they had to wait for heavy equipment to come up.

Compared with the assault boat, the amphibious tanks of the Tang Marine Corps advance speed is like a snail. Under the attack of Japanese artillery fire, a number of tanks were submerged in huge waves, causing the engine to fail and break down.

The sky was filled with smoke and the visibility was very low. It was not until an hour later that the Tang army locked the Japanese artillery position, and a dozen Hellfire heavy carrier-based bombers flew over to destroy it.

Then the sea surface of the landing area calmed down a little, and Tang army's amphibious tanks came ashore one after another.

The roar of the chariots led the way for the Tang army landing troops. The Japanese Type 97 machine gun bullets hit the chariot's armor without any effect, and they watched helplessly as the steel giant beasts kept approaching them.

The 88mm tank gun fired, and with one shot, it destroyed the machine gun fortifications in the hill. Then another chariot drove over with a six-unit flamethrower and sprayed flames at the Japanese machine gun fortress that had just been bombarded. The Japanese troops who might have survived were burned to death in case they fired cold guns at the Tang soldiers.

These are all experiences. The Tang army summarized it for many years. In the past, they were often attacked by Japanese troops like this, causing unnecessary casualties to the Tang army.

The Japanese army did not have many defensive positions on the beachhead, and were quickly destroyed under the bombardment of the Tang army's naval guns, aircraft and tanks. The Tang army deployed three landing sites A, B and C in Dalian Bay, all of which completed the landing operation within half a day and controlled the entire Dalian Bay.

Then, temporary water pontoon bridges were built, and the Tang army landing ships were berthed directly, transporting heavy equipment ashore to prepare for the upcoming attack on the Lushun Fortress.

The Tang army captured Dalian Bay and was about to launch an attack on the Lushun Fortress. This naturally could not be hidden from the eyes of the Japanese army, which made the entire Japanese Kwantung Army and the Japanese base camp frightened.

The strategic position of the brigade is extremely important. Once the loss is unimaginable, more than one million Japanese troops will be completely trapped in the three northeastern provinces. The Japanese Army Department originally thought that the Lushun Fortress could last for at least one or two years. After all, it took nearly four hundred days to seize the fortress from Tsarist Russia. The Japanese Army, which thought it was stronger than the Russian army, thought it could hold on for a longer time. However, when the damage report of the Lushun Fortress was sent to the Tokyo Base Camp, 95% of the fortress artillery was damaged by the Tang army's bombing, which shocked the Japanese Army. Not to mention holding on for a year or two, I am afraid that it would not be able to defend it for a few days.

The Japanese army underestimated the power of the Tang army bombers and thought that the Tang army bombers carried 500 kilograms of aviation bombs, but they didn't know that it was something that happened many years ago. The Tang army knew that the Japanese army had prepared for a long time and built many fortifications that could resist 500 kilograms of aviation bombs. Therefore, the Tang army used a more powerful 1,000 kilograms of aviation bombs this time, directly destroying the so-called invincible defensive fortifications of the Japanese army.

"Let the navy support quickly!" Kato sighed immediately. For the sake of the present, he could only let the navy rush to reinforce, hoping to restrain the Tang Navy and win time for the Japanese Kwantung Army to reinforce the brigade.

Although the Onodera Wudi Fleet is very important, the brigade is even more important, which is related to the life and death of more than one million Japanese troops. Kato could only lose his car and protect his commander.

"At the same time, let the Kwantung Army be prepared to withdraw from North Korea!" Kato added, worried that the Great Fortress would eventually be out of guarantee, so the Kwantung Army should prepare for the response in advance.

After Kato's telegram was sent out, Okamura Yasuji, the headquarters of Fengtian's Kwantung Army, roared and mobilized the entire four divisions of the Vulcan to reinforce the brigade. They were all elite Kwantung Army, and he was going to fight the Tang army to the death.

At the same time, the Japanese Navy aircraft carrier battle group, which was on standby in the Tsuma Strait, also received an order from the Navy Department. Onodera Gonomi sighed and ordered the entire fleet to go to the Yellow Sea, and also prepared to fight to the death with the Tang army, because he knew very well that it would be difficult to escape if he encountered the Tang navy, but he had no choice. He knew that the Tang army's attack on Lushun was a shocking trap, and it was finally coming for his fleet.

"General, please allow me to carry out the Kanyu Special Attack!" At this time, Major General Takijiro Oshiki suddenly came to find Onodera Gonori.

The Kamikaze special attack operation uses one man, one aircraft, and one thunder to hit enemy warships by suicide to achieve the corresponding tactical battle purpose. This is also the last tactic that the Japanese Navy was forced to come up with Takijiro Oshiki, hoping to turn the tide.

"We have not yet fought the Tang Navy to do so, so don't consider this tactic!" Onodera Gonomi knew that this was a cruel tactic, and he didn't want to use it unless he had no choice.

"God General, can't you see the current situation?" said Takijiro Oshiki: "Why did our fleet hide and dare not fight head-on with the Tang army? It's not because our Type 96 fighter jets cannot compete with the Tang army's Raptors and Hellfire. This time we go to the reinforcement brigade, there is a situation where we go without returning. The base camp knows, we know, and the soldiers know that there are too many pilots in our empire, which is worse than the Tang Dynasty. Unfortunately, our planes are not as good as others, and we lose in the fight."

Onoji Gonori sighed and said, "If we have three more years, our most advanced Zero fighter jets will be in service. Then we will no longer have to be afraid of the raptors and hellfires of the Tang army."

"But we haven't had three years after all!" Takijiro Oshiki continued: "In a day, we will inevitably encounter the Tang Dynasty Navy. Even if we are completely wiped out, we will seriously damage them! Please allow the use of the Kamikaze Special Attack!"

Onoji Wuji looked complicated, and finally nodded helplessly and said, "Then please give me!"

"This is our honor!" Oshiki Takijiro replied firmly. He was a fanatical guy, and now he can finally realize his most fanatical dream.

Takijiro Oshiki immediately deployed and provided brainwashing education to the Japanese pilots, asking them to be loyal to the Japanese emperor and to sink the Tang army's aircraft carrier like a devil.
