Chapter 1062: Where did 1063 come from?

 Chapter 1062 Where did 1063 come from?

At dawn, Xiang Ziyu and the others finally arrived with their reinforcements. Another company of paratroopers arrived at Leping Village and saw the results of their battle.

 Some soldiers were disposing of the corpses. One of them was killed and two were injured last night, but they captured Leping and eliminated about 400 goblins.

The entire village is now littered with corpses, and a 75mm field gun has fallen over next to a courtyard wall. The goblin troops blew it up, seemingly fearing that it would be used by the Tang army.

The commander of the 3rd company looked at Xiang Ziyu, pointed to the building over there where the flames had been extinguished but were still smoking, and asked: "That's pretty cruel. Did you burn it?"

"No, they hid in it and couldn't come out. They lit a fire and burned it." Xiang Ziyu answered truthfully.

"Yes, that should be said." The 3rd company commander nodded and said in agreement: "The battalion headquarters will be here soon. We need to build a defense here to prevent goblins from passing here and reinforcing the seaside."

"I'm telling the truth." Xiang Ziyu explained again, and then he had no energy to argue with the 3rd company commander: "I am preparing to build a defense line. The road must be destroyed and set up on the small high ground outside the village. The defensive position forms a mutual support state with the village.”

"No problem, which side should I guard?" The commander of the 3rd company magnanimously asked Xiang Ziyu to choose first: "You have been fighting all night, and the troops are not all ready yet, so you choose first."

“Then I will defend the village.” Xiang Ziyu was not polite and directly chose a position that was easier to defend.

The commander of the 3rd company was not pretentious. Since he asked Xiang Ziyu to pick first, he was ready to defend the high ground.

The two companies quickly dispersed. The 3rd company with more troops began to build fortifications on the small high ground outside the village, while Xiang Ziyu's troops established a defense system in the village.

 The heavy machine gun team climbed up to the roof and found a good place inside the spire. The window on the roof had a good shooting range and could suppress enemies trying to get close to the village.

Of course, the disadvantage here is also obvious: if the opponent has heavy artillery and the like, once the shooting position is exposed, they will be killed by artillery shells.

Soon a messenger on a motorcycle arrived in Leping and delivered some good news: their paratroopers had taken control of Dongshan Village and Bridge No. 1, completing the tasks assigned to them by their superiors before the war.

Now, they will face the enemy's counterattack: if the enemy confirms the direction of the landing force's movement, a large number of armored forces will definitely come over.

"Hurry up and rest! Don't waste your energy! Try to eat something, don't go hungry!" Xiang Ziyu walked through the defensive position of his men and asked the soldiers to recover quickly to prepare for the fierce battle behind them.

At this moment, on the sea, the destroyer of the Tang Empire discovered a mirage fishing boat. Soon the destroyer opened fire and sank the mirage ship that did not know where it came from. But before it was sunk, the fishing boat The captain did send an "enemy ship sighted" message to Mirage's headquarters.

Combining the numbers and positions of the fishing boats, Mirage Wuzhong discovered the location of the main fleet of the Tang Empire at dawn: he found that he had guessed wrong.

The enemy's fleet is obviously closer to the southern beach, which means that the Tang Empire's fleet chose a landing site other than the Great South Bay.

Mirong Wuzhong, who realized that he was wrong, immediately realized that Dongshan Village, Leping Village and Bridge No. 1 were the only way to reinforce the southern beach.

"We must recapture these places! Order the 2nd and 3rd Armored Divisions to advance to No. 1 Bridge and Leping respectively! Capture these places at all costs!" The angry Mirage Wu Zhong gave the order: "Let the south The defenders near the beach are on alert! All troops are ready to fight!

“Also! Take off the plane and go to the southern beach! Sink these **** Datang Empire battleships!” Clenching his fists, Mirage Wu Zhong added the order through gritted teeth.

 A few minutes later, following Mirage Taketada's order, the Mirage coast defense troops resting in the barracks behind them immediately began to enter the defensive position. The siren echoed in the various fortifications and bunkers built by the Mirage Kingdom. The Mirage soldiers rushed towards their bunkers and bunkers along the trenches and dark tunnels.

　　When these mirage soldiers looked toward the sea from the shooting holes or gaps in the sandbags, they were instantly stunned by the sight in front of them.

The sea surface they could see was completely filled with ships of all sizes. They were all ships as far as the eye could see, and warships were rotating their turrets and pointing their dark muzzles at them.

They had not seen any warships yesterday evening, but now a large fleet was unfolding in front of them.

Countless small landing craft are docked on both sides of the large transport ship, and densely packed Marines are climbing down.

"My God...so many ships." A Mirage soldier sighed in a low voice. Beside him, a Mirage veteran wanted to light a cigarette, but found that his hands were shaking. "If anyone comes ashore, shoot! Let them know how powerful we are!" The Mirage officer walked through the trench carrying his command knife that looked like a dagger, reminding his soldiers to fight bravely: "For His Majesty the Mirage Emperor! Fight to the bitter end. !”

In a bunker built of sandbags and logs, the Mirage machine gunner pulled the trigger and pointed the muzzle of the Maxim machine gun at the open space on the beach.

They are all waiting, waiting for the enemy to rush onto the beach and rush into their shooting range. Then a massacre will begin, and their bullets will cut down the Tang Empire landing troops like wheat.

The silence was broken by the sound of a cannon, and then countless cannonballs pierced the air and landed on the beach and the mirage defenses near the beach.

"Boom!" A huge explosion hit near the trench, and the flying soil almost buried the goblins in the trench. The main guns on at least 20 destroyers fired non-stop, and the shells fell on the Mirage's defenses like they were free.

 Some artillery shells blew away the barbed wire fence in front of the Mirage Army's position, and some landed on the reinforced concrete bunkers, only destroying some hard cement blocks.

Then the artillery troops of the Mirage State began to fight back. Although there was no accuracy, the shells fell on the water, and the huge water column stirred up was inspiring to see.

In the sky, twenty emergency Zero fighter jets flew past at low altitude and rushed towards the Tang Empire warship floating on the sea.

 Over their heads, in the clouds, ten pirate fighter jets rolled down and dived towards these targets.

For a time, the sound of the plane's engine rang through the sky. The Mirage soldiers in the trenches and the Tang soldiers on the ships all raised their heads, nervously watching the **** battle in the sky.

"Where did the plane come from? Where did they get the plane from?" Passing by a pirate fighter jet with an inverted gull wing, the Mirage Goblin flight captain piloting a Zero fighter asked loudly while controlling the plane to dodge the incoming bullets. .

"I don't know, sir! I don't know either!" The wingmen following him also didn't expect that they came over aggressively and prepared to bully others, but in the end they encountered someone else's plane.

And... looking at it like this, these planes that look like Stukas... seem to be flying faster than their planes.

“Escape! Escape!” Seeing that the dragon-slaying bombers following him were scattered by the Tang Empire’s pirate fighter jets, the Goblin flight captain in charge of frontline command shouted desperately.

"It's over! Get rid of these **** guys first! Let's get to 3,000 meters before we talk!" Seeing a Dragon Killer bomber falling into the sea dragging thick black smoke, he had to order the escorting Zero fighter jets to quickly regain altitude.

At the beginning, they were not prepared to fight with the Tang Empire's air force: they did not expect that the Tang Empire would have aircraft to participate in the battle, so they thought of low-altitude strafing to give the Datang Empire's navy a disincentive.

But they never expected that just when they appeared above the landing site on the southern beach, the Tang Empire's air superiority fighters would come over to kill them.

Those pirate fighter jets with bent wings are extremely flexible in the air, relying on their speed to attack unscrupulously. The bulky Dragon-Slaying fighter jets were unable to maintain their formation, and were shot down one after another.

The goblin pilots piloted the Zero fighter and tried to bite the tails of these pirate fighters, but as soon as they bit them, they found that the opponent began to perform a vertical roller maneuver. When the Zero fighter followed this action, its speed would quickly decrease.

Immediately afterwards, the opponent's wingman will cut in and fire at a very tricky angle. The Zero fighter, which has almost lost its speed, cannot avoid it at all and will be shot down soon.

And if the Zero fighter jets are not fooled and do not chase these pirate fighter jets, then these pirate fighter jets will use their speed advantage to cut into the formation of the dragon-slaying bombers and kill the slow-moving dragon-slaying bombers like wolves in the herd.

 For the naval aviation pilots of the Tang Empire, this was simply like a game. They know all the weaknesses of the opponent, and they just need to seize the opportunity to deal violent damage when the opponent reveals their weaknesses.

The goblin pilots who flew the Zero fighters felt helpless. No matter how they operated, there seemed to be nothing they could do against the fighter jets that looked similar to the Stuka.

“Are they playing tricks on us?” The Goblin Flight Captain roared angrily as he watched a Zero fighter jet being shot down by a pirate fighter jet using the “Sachs-Scissors” tactic.

 Amid his roar, the landing ships of the Tang Empire Navy began to release amphibious tanks and amphibious armored vehicles. These armored combat vehicles followed the landing craft and began to attack the coastline of the Mirage Kingdom.
