Chapter 511 512 Mission Change

"We are not here to land operations..." A young Marine said to himself Inserting an extra magazine into his tactical vest, he asked the officer beside him, "Damn it, why did you come here on a temporary mission?"

"I heard that the demons are massacred in Shakeburn. Go up and drive them away, get the civilians out." His Captain checked his M4 assault rifle with the grenade launcher, replied without looking up. He pulled the gun and heard a crisp sound, and then let the gun return.

"Those people are all supporters of demons, wouldn't it be better to let them die?" Another soldier hung the grenade on his chest and tidied up the pocket full of magazines on the side. .

The deck of the battleship they were on was full of UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters that had begun to rotate their wings.

Besides them, a landing craft had already started its engine, and the huge noise of the hovercraft made people have to shout.

This battleship is the only one amphibious landing ship carried by the Alanhill naval fleet going south this time. It can only carry a fully armed marine corps when it is fully loaded.

It also carried only one battalion of soldiers, as it was not expected to perform a landing mission.

After all, this time is going south, and the navy is carrying out a southward rescue mission. They are going to find a way to transport as many refugees as possible near Shackburn. Therefore, although this fleet carried more than thirty large transport ships, it did not arrange for a large number of soldiers to travel with them.

If you bring an extra soldier, you will need to bring 3 to 4 fewer refugees when you retreat. This is because soldiers need a lot of logistical supply and support resources, while refugees can be aggrieved and do not need weapons and other support.

However, the battle on the navy side was at first, and Laurens realized that if his ground troops didn't go up to fight, the demons probably wouldn't retreat immediately. The opponent will attack with Alanhill's navy, slaughter as many humans as possible before leaving.

In order to drive away the demons that have been chaotic, Laurens decided to land only one marine battalion and occupy the port to cover the retreat of those refugees.

"All soldiers hurry up and prepare! The fleet is cleaning up the enemy ships in the port, and it will be our turn soon!" Inside the broadcast, a majestic voice sounded, overshadowing the noisy machinery Voice.

"My God! No heavy armored vehicles, no tanks...no cover at all, landing stations full of enemy port cities...what a joke." He raised his chin and looked at the man above his head. radio speakers, a soldier complained.

They are just a light marine battalion, armed only with some light weapons, and what should have been performed this time is to maintain law and order on the transport ships and suppress the enemy forces that may infiltrate the civilian population.

"Shut up! Hurry up and organize your weapons and equipment, we are going to board the ship! A company may have already started to move!" The commander of B company came over at this time, holding a steel helmet After scolding, he walked towards the hovercraft that had already started.

In the hovercraft, several light armored vehicles have been roped to the deck, and the crew members are doing the final inspection work. On the sides of the hovercraft, behind the two automatic guns covering the landing, the gunners were ready and gave their thumbs up.

On the deck, the soldiers of Company A had already bent over and walked towards the Black Hawk helicopters whose engines had already started. In front of these Black Hawk helicopters, the Cobra gunships that have also started their engines have slowly risen from the deck, and the rockets mounted under the wings are majestic and imposing.

"Hurry up!" Standing beside a helicopter, the company commander of Company A waved his arms to signal his subordinates to move more neatly.

These soldiers, armed with weapons and carrying as much ammunition as possible, have mostly climbed into their helicopters.

The rear doors of the two CH-47 transport helicopters over there have begun to close, and the cabins are filled with various weapons, including anti-tank rocket launchers and anti-aircraft missiles, mortars directly under the company, and The ultra-light terrain vehicle responsible for transporting these.

The moment the tailgate closed, the CH-47 transport helicopter left the deck, followed the UH-60 helicopters that had already taken off in front, and flew into the distance.

Watching the penultimate helicopter take off, the company commander of Company A got into the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter beside him and gave the co-pilot in front a gesture to take off. This Black Hawk It also flew, and the fuselage continued to bump slightly with the rotation of the engine.

In the not-so-spacious cockpit, there are company communications equipment, as well as signal soldiers, as well as two super god puppets sitting silently on the plane.

While these helicopters took off, the 1st Support Fleet at Alanhill had been shelling for almost an hour.

They fired thousands of Tomahawk cruise missiles and at least 300 rounds of 406mm artillery shells.

As an old navy's insistence, Laurens insisted on attacking his enemy within sight distance. Although he had radar fire control, and even though he could fire safely at a distance of more than 100 kilometers, he was still Willing to beat his target at 20km.

With the support of the high level fire control system, the 406mm caliber naval gun has a very high accuracy, and every salvo will have the enemy's battleship hit and detonated, and the entire port of Shakeburn will be detonated , is now almost the cemetery of the demon battleship.

Launs, who was standing on the Cambridge admiring the destruction of his enemy, looked towards his adjutant again and asked, "Have the landing troops set off?"

" Yes! General! Our landing force has set off, and we have almost cleared the port." The adjutant looked at the scene in front of him and replied.

Within their line of sight, the demon battleship has few targets to fire, and more plumes of smoke rise in the city, and the sky is full of Alanhill's fighters. The demon bat, and the raging dragon, have disappeared.

The demons have indeed been suppressed, and they were designed to slaughter humans, and they did not plan to fight to the death with Alanhill's main fleet in Shackburn.

To put it bluntly, these demons are not here to fight to the death. From their configuration, it can be seen that this is simply not a real main demon army.

They don't have a Floating Void City fort, and they don't have more dragons. There are no large-scale engineering weapons on the ground that can kill a human city wall in seconds, and there are no hordes of magical high-level demons.

In terms of scale, this is just a normal army of demons, and the fleet is just the "leftovers" that survived Alanhill's attack.

When Laurens confirmed the landing force, his fleet opened fire again, smashing into a sieve the largest demon battleship that had already started to capsize.

The destroyer has started to fire at close range. The 130mm caliber naval guns equipped on the bow are constantly pouring shells at a demon battleship that has no power to fight back at a very high rate of fire. .

Each shell hits a thin steel plate, leaving an incomparable gigantic hole. The sea water poured into such a hole, and the demon battleship sank quickly.

At least in naval battles, the devil's naval fleet is only slaughtered when it faces the Alanhill battleship.

Soon, dozens of helicopters that took off one after another passed over the sea, passed the hovercraft that was moving fast under their feet, and arrived at the port that was full of smoke.

"My God...this is...too bad." An Alanhill soldier leaning against the window sighed in shock as he looked at the city that had been looted.

"That open space can be landed! The gunship has established a fire cover position in the vicinity! We will return after you go down!" The co-pilot in front of the helicopter turned back and was slightly nervous behind him. the soldiers shouted.

The leading officer gave him a thumbs up, and the UH-60 helicopter began to slow down above the hard-to-find clearing.

Then, the helicopter began to slowly descend its own height, and the cannon under the nose of the AH-1 Cobra gunship escorted by the side spit out fire tongues, aiming at the demons who were trying to approach the landing site in the distance. The dog swept out a dense cannonball.

Those shells hit the masonry streets, sending a cloud of white smoke. Several demon dogs fell to the ground, and the rest scattered as birds and beasts and disappeared at the end of the street.

"hua!" approached the ground, and the side door of the HU-60 Black Hawk helicopter was pulled open by the soldiers from the inside. When the landing gear of the helicopter just hit the ground, the marines in the cabin couldn't wait to rush off the plane.

"Find cover! Build a Defensive Array!" A squad leader subconsciously shouted to his soldiers as soon as he jumped off the plane.

There are still bloody corpses on the ground, some of which are demon dogs and demon soldiers killed by gunships, some are civilians, and some are soldiers of the southern kingdom in armor.

"Damn it!" A soldier just took two steps forward when he stumbled over the half corpse under his feet that the demon dog had eaten. He struggled to get up, and found that his palms were sticky and covered with blood that was about to dry up.

He looked down at his chest, and there was also a lot of blood on it. Cursed angrily, he reluctantly picked up his weapon and followed the footsteps of his comrades-in-arms.

"Set the highest point on that building over there! Turn on the identification device! Don't be killed by your own cannonballs!" After getting off the plane, the platoon leader of 1st row pointed to a distant one shouted the buildings that were not torn down.

Hearing his order, several soldiers standing beside him who arrived on the same plane lightly turned off the launcher, and then in groups of two, carrying heavy anti-tank missiles, they ran to the distance. that commanding heights.

A gunship swept over everyone's heads, and the rockets on both wings were constantly firing. The smell of burning gunpowder wafts across the battlefield, a smell that reassures every Alanhill soldier.
