Chapter 1318 Repression

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

In Sennaport and Lahad Datu, the cannons are rumbling. All the artillery of the two infantry divisions of the German army tried their best this time. Howitzers of all calibers, field guns, infantry guns and mortars were firing. A large number of stored shells were thrown at the island army without money, causing the island army to pay heavy casualties.

It is estimated that the island army has never seen such a style of play. It was completely suppressed on the beach, and its losses continued to rise. It was as if the Germans were trying to overwhelm them with shells.

The division headquarters of the German 225th Infantry Division, the division commander, Major General Eric Hansen, was frowning. The fierce battle is still going on, and the sound of guns has never stopped, which shows how fierce the battle is. The island country army invested four infantry regiments at one time, and nearly 15,000 people launched a landing operation. Such a scale also made the 225th Infantry Division feel great pressure.

The 225th Infantry Division of the German Army has 3 infantry regiments and 1 artillery regiment under its jurisdiction, plus other troops directly under the division headquarters, with a total strength of more than 18,000 people. In addition, the German army has always been well-equipped and powerful. This made the German army's combat effectiveness very strong. However, in this battle, they still felt tremendous pressure.

"General, the islanders are too crazy. Although they have been temporarily suppressed by us, they are not afraid of death at all when they fight. According to reports from the front line, there are often islanders who are not afraid of death in the face of our intensive firepower. That kind of will to fight is really terrifying. The two regiments on the front line are under a lot of pressure!" said Brigadier General Michael, the chief of staff of the division.

Major General Eric Hansen nodded: "The islanders have always been crazy and disregarded life. Otherwise, they would not have defeated powerful enemies one after another with such brave tactics. However, if the islanders think that It would be a big mistake to defeat us in this way. This time, we will let them bleed on this beach."

"General, there is no problem in fighting during the day. Relying on strong firepower, we can suppress the islanders and continue to inflict casualties on them. However, once night falls, our air force can no longer be dispatched. At that time, the island nation People will definitely launch a night attack. Their military advantage can also be maximized. This will be very difficult for us!" Brigadier General Michael reminded.

"Well, this is indeed a problem. If we want to stop the islanders, then we have to completely defeat them during the day and make them pay extremely serious losses. In this way, our pressure at night will be less .In addition, the heavy artillery brigade will arrive at night. Three battalions will come to support us. The other three battalions will go to the 228th Infantry Division. Thirty-six 210mm heavy artillery pieces are probably enough for the islanders to drink a pot. "Major General Eric Hansen had a smile on his face, as if he had seen the scene where the island army suffered heavy losses in front of the German heavy artillery.

"With the support of the heavy artillery brigade, we can undoubtedly make the islanders pay a higher price. However, it may be difficult to completely resist the attack of the islanders. After all, the islanders still have many transport ships and ships at sea. Merchant ships. I’m afraid there are still quite a few troops on those transport ships and merchant ships. Their strength is too great.” Brigadier General Michael sighed.

"There is no way around this. Who made our main force now confined to the battlefield of Bu Russia? After we defeat Bu Russia, we will have enough troops to support us. At that time, we can easily Defeat the islanders. Your Excellency Commander's order is also very clear. He does not require us to stick to this place, but only asks us to make the islanders pay a heavy price as much as possible. In this case, when we launch a counterattack in the future, the difficulty will be Much smaller," Major General Eric Hansen said.

Brigadier General Michael nodded. Under unavoidable circumstances, the German army can only retreat. There is no other way.

The battle on the beach was very tragic. The island army launched several attacks in an attempt to break through the German defenses. However, they were all beaten back by the German army with powerful firepower, leaving a large number of corpses on the beach and suffering heavy losses. The blood of the islanders almost dyed the entire beach red. Even the gravel was soaked in blood and turned into mud.

"God! Those islanders are so crazy. I killed at least a hundred islanders today." Between battles, a machine gunner boasted while smoking a cigarette.

"One hundred? Are there that many? I only killed thirty-two of them. However, seven of them are officers, and there are nine machine gunners!" The sniper leaning on the edge of the trench said disdainfully.

Because the army of the island country fought fiercely without fear of death, such tactics enabled the German army to achieve good results. Of course, the battlefield is undoubtedly very bloody, if Shura hell is the same. Seeing such a scene, some unsteady people even vomited out their overnight meal. Many of the rest are already very numb to this. When the island army launches an attack, they only need to mechanically pull the trigger. The dense bullets will kill those island soldiers.

"Warriors of the Empire, charge! Defeat those Germans and kill them all!" A lieutenant and squadron leader of the island army led the remaining hundred soldiers under his command and launched a charge.

These island soldiers, even in the face of the powerful firepower of the German army, did not change their expressions, as if those bullets would not hit them at all.

But in reality, that's simply not possible. On the battlefield, bullets don't have eyes. A fragile human body is simply vulnerable to bullets and can easily be pierced through.

"Puff! Puff!"

The sound of bullets shooting into the human body continued to be heard, and one by one the soldiers of the island army fell to the ground, ending their sinful lives.

"Grenade, shoot!"

The grenadiers of the island army were also firing crazily. Because it was a landing operation, their heavy artillery could not go ashore, so the fire support relied entirely on mortars and grenades.

It's just that the Japanese army's grenadier had just fired, and it was counterattacked by the German army. Several mortar shells fell one after another, submerging the place where the grenadier was located.

Soon, all the officers and soldiers of the attacking island nation were shot, and the beach calmed down again. However, everyone knows that this is only temporary, and the islanders will launch a new offensive soon.
