Chapter 496: Paratrooper's theater

This is the largest airborne operation in human history, and it is also a joint airborne operation involving multiple arms.

As the paratroopers entered the war zone, the magician unit cooperated with the air force fighter unit and began to fully control the air superiority of the theater.

The magicians flying in the sky and fighter jets formed a perfect cooperation from high altitude to low altitude, driving all enemy troops that could threaten the paratroopers to places where they could not function.

At the same time, the second assault echelon in the rear began to move, and a large number of troops, including the Dragon Knights, lifted into the air, and began to use vertical projection to reinforce the area controlled by the paratroopers.

Not only the Dragon Knights, the second batch of troops also has a large number of engineers and equipment, and even a large number of transport helicopters carrying military materials such as quick-drying cement.

Once these troops reach the front line smoothly, they will use the fastest speed to build military airfields in areas controlled by paratroopers to create convenient conditions for subsequent material transportation.

Subsequent reinforcements will be followed up by a full 2 ​​heavy infantry divisions. These units are directly transported by transport aircraft and will quickly arrive at the front-line airfield as a supplement to the paratroopers.

At the same time, the 6th Army Group will keep advancing at a speed of 100 kilometers a day, advancing forward for 7 consecutive days, reaching the area controlled by the paratroopers, and opening up the ground transportation line.

The entire plan was drawn up by the General Staff, and it can be said to be a very limited airborne operation. Lanhill also has his own considerations for choosing such a tactic.

Because the devil has already begun to invade the southern kingdom, it is possible to attack the Kasik empire west at any time. In order to avoid the devil's destruction of mankind, the senior Lanhill decided to take time to rescue the civilians who could not resist the devil's invasion.

This is of course the official statement. In fact, the essence is that Lanhill hopes to obtain a larger control area with less loss and faster speed, so as to realize more war benefits and give back to a stable rear society.

Therefore, the war is once again guided by the economy. A battle that ends the war as soon as possible, does not destroy the infrastructure as much as possible, and can eliminate conflicts to the greatest extent, is drawn up in this way.

As a result, the rain plan officially began. Before receiving the letter from Emperor Harriet of the Kasik Empire, the airborne operation officially began under the push of many parties.

The first Lanhill paratrooper landed, he quickly climbed out of the parachute covering him, and then took off the parachute backpack on his back.

Then he knelt on one knee and began to organize his belongings, ignoring the companions who continued to land around him.

The surroundings seem to be very quiet, and they are still a few kilometers away from the nearest target. It is impossible to have opposing forces in this kind of wilderness, so the battle hardly broke out.

After checking his own things and found that everything was no different from training, the Lanhill paratrooper raised his rifle and made a forward gesture to the soldiers who were also ready around him.

Several paratroopers nodded slightly, arched their weapons, stepped on the white parachute cloth, and cautiously began to move forward.

After theirs, more parachutes are landing, and many transport planes are returning. The loud engine sound obscured other surrounding sounds, and the entire paratrooper landing area was noisy.

"Liu Yu!" When two paratroopers of similar size met, the action command was called out.

The other party has actually seen their own people wearing camouflage uniforms here, after all, their enemies do not have such professional combat uniforms and weapons. But they still shouted out the password and confirmed their share: "Bloom!"

The leading officer took over the command. This was a captain of an airborne unit. He looked down at the satellite navigation equipment he was carrying and confirmed his position.

Then he checked with his fingers on the map pulled apart by the two soldiers on the side, and gave a direction: "The nearest village is less than 2 kilometers northwest. Our landing position does not deviate much."

After speaking, he used his finger with a tactical hand to point in another direction: "Satellite reconnaissance, there is a castle over there, there may be 100 or 200 enemy troops!"

"I am the company commander of the second company. Our company's mission is to encircle this castle and capture this strategic node!" The captain put away the somewhat bulky satellite navigation equipment, and said to the soldiers in front of him: " But now I only gather 30 people, do you want to act with me?"

"Yes." Another second lieutenant officer nodded. He is in the first company. However, at this time, Lanhill's paratroopers have strict cooperation regulations, and he is obligated to help the friendly army complete combat tasks within his ability.

"Then let's go! It's best to meet a signal soldier! Then we should be able to call air support in an hour." Looking at his watch, the captain began to move towards his goal.

Carrying weapons, carrying heavy bags, and some people carrying various professional equipment and heavy weapons, this team marched toward the castle in such mighty power.

The battle had just begun, and just as they were about to advance to the castle, a giant dragon roared and swooped down not far away.

"Enemy attack!" All the soldiers on the ground became nervous, because they learned from the battlefield information training before the airborne that their dragon knights are all painted with reflective paint.

The giant dragon in front of him was obviously not an ally, because it was breathing fire at a paratrooper who hadn't landed yet, and it instantly burned the hapless paratrooper into charcoal.

With the shouts, all the paratroopers took up their weapons, and the m4 assault rifles spewed out of flames, intertwined on the ground, like stars.

In the sudden intensive gunfire, the dragon flew away sideways, seemingly unwilling to attack these ground targets that already had the ability to counterattack.

It seems to be more interested in the targets hanging in the sky, and it knocked over a parachute with its own wings during the flight.

"Damn it! Have you seen the anti-aircraft missile distribution box?" The empty magazine was returned, and a new magazine was drawn from his front and inserted into the m4 short-barreled assault rifle. The captain said loudly. Shouted.

"No!" The one who answered him was the only machine gunner in this unit. At this time, with the help of others, he had installed the mg-42 machine gun on a simple tripod, pointed it at the sky, and pulled the bolt.
