Chapter 169 169 Participation in the warAn airborne regiment was quickly assembled at the airport, and with the arrival of this airborne regiment, there were still a full 500 ground crew and their tools and equipment.
With the help of the paratroopers, the airport quickly became busy, and the ground crew was responsible for refueling the C-47 transport aircraft that had run out of fuel. it's ready.
The airport was busy, and because the planes were flying at a higher speed, Alanhill's paratroopers were the first reinforcements to arrive at Grecon.
A few hours later, Alanhill's Dragon Knight force also arrived nearby, along with them, the Eternal Empire's Dragon Knight vanguard.
Of course, because they belong to different forces, the two sides did not hoard together. Alanhill has its own camp, while the Eternal Empire's Dragon Knight troops are deployed further afield.
The second batch of fighter jets arriving at Gricken was Alanhill's fighter force. After the ground crews were ready, the hurriedly arrived P-51 Mustang fighter jets began to land on the runway of the field airfield in batches. .
Because of the lack of range, the ME-109 unit can only be obediently and honestly guarding the mainland. This time expedition, the air force of Alanhill, can basically be said to be an all-American aircraft force.
C-47s are used for transports and Mustangs are used for fighters. The bombers used the B-25 and B-17, both classic American long-range aircraft. Because of the range, the Air Force did not even bring the classic Il-2 attack aircraft.
"It's hard to imagine that the reinforcements of mortals are as fast as the Eternal Empire. In theory, they are farther apart, so this is really a miracle." Squatting on the hillside, just now The she-wolf said to a giant wolf with scars on her body who had just rushed back.
"I hope they can play a role in the battlefield... But looking at those flying machines, the speed is really fast." The giant wolf said with a hoarse voice: "With Children get out of here and back to the second line..."
"How can I leave you alone? This is our home and we should guard it." The she-wolf looks down on the huge airport , said.
The giant wolf was silent for a while, then said again: "This time, we may fail...so take the children and leave..."
"Dear, Look at those mortals, they have no reason to come here to fight for us at all, if we leave, what are they paying for?" The she-wolf licked the giant wolf's wound and said softly with her head against the giant wolf .
"They're fighting for themselves! Me too... That's why I asked you to leave with the children. This place is about to become hell." giant wolf sighed and shook his head. : "Listen to me..."
In the end, her eyes fell on the young wolves who were still playing, and the she-wolf choked up and said, "Well, if the situation gets worse, I'll take them out of here."
While they were talking, another C-47 transport plane landed on the airport, another group of soldiers pushed open the door and jumped out of the cabin, and Unlike before, these soldiers are wearing magic robes, they are Alanhill's own magic Legion.
"Open! Open the back door!" In another field airport not far away, a ground staff commanding unloading was loudly ordering his subordinates to lift the nose of a giant transport plane.
This ME-323 transport aircraft is the largest transport aircraft produced by Alanhill today. Its main purpose is to provide the transport of heavy weapons and equipment for paratroopers.
Just as everyone was watching, this huge ME-323 transport plane opened its huge nose, revealing the deep space inside. The two pedals were thrown from the plane, creating a slope, and a light tank slowly drove out of the cabin.
This is a support war chariot specially produced for Alanhill paratroopers, which is actually a German Panzer 2. Equipped with a 20mm caliber cannon, this tank, with three members, can provide important fire support and cover for the paratroopers.
After all, there is space to carry the radio, and there are not many tanks that can be stuffed into the ME-323 transport aircraft, and the special design is a bit redundant, so in the end Chris chose the No. 2 tank to serve as the paratrooper war chariot .
After testing, the performance of this light war chariot is still very good, the price is cheap, and the firepower is still enough. After the modification to use the 30mm caliber cannon, the battle strength has also been improved to a certain extent, and it can be used as a front-line war chariot equipment for paratroopers to perform combat missions.
A ME-323 transport aircraft can barely fit a No. 2 paratrooper tank. In order to fit a tank, Chris also made a little modification to the ME-323. This time the paratroopers reinforced Grecon, and the No. 2 paratrooper war chariot became the main force of the armored forces in the early support operations.
On another spare runway at this field airfield, another bloated and heavy ME-323 kicked up a cloud of dust on the runway.
It can be seen from the posture where it landed that the aircraft also has a heavy No. 2 tank inside the body - if you want to transport people, it is obviously more suitable for the C-47 .
A dozen No. 2 tanks that have been unloaded are gathering towards the high ground on the side of the airport, accompanied by a battalion of paratroopers unloaded here at the same time.
In fact, the paratrooper commanders of Alanhill did this arrangement: they insisted on using ME-323 to transport Panzer 2 and C-47 to transport personnel. Anyway, the number of C-47 is large, so there is no need to worry about waste.
In addition to being unable to transport tanks, the amazingly capable C-47 transport aircraft can transport almost anything.
It can carry paratroopers, can also carry weapons and ammunition, and can also transport heavy weapons and equipment, such as rocket launchers, such as large-caliber mortars.
On the first day, the incredible Alanhill Air Force delivered 3,000 paratroopers and 50 tanks to the Grecon.
Meeting the Dragon Knight forces that arrived later, Alanhill's paratroopers took control of the entire area, forming a solid bridgehead. They were ordered to station here to cover the arrival of subsequent troops.
On the morning of the second day after learning of the arrival of the Alanhill reinforcements, the magician Vivian, who was in charge of contacting the Alanhill Empire, came to the Defensive Array of the Alanhill paratroopers and briefly explained the current situation.
"The situation is very bad, we are losing every step of the way...Yesterday, two more high-level magicians like me fell." Vivian said very disturbedly about the front line. matter.
She glanced at the Air Force Paratrooper Commander George Hart, who she didn't know, and pointed to the Defensive Array of paratroopers in the distance: "I need you to move forward about... your distance unit. , 12 kilometers, build a defense line along the river, and then try our best to hold the river."
"12 kilometers, on foot, we need about 3 hours, if we need to prepare well... ...We need about 10 hours." Looking at his watch, George Hart replied.
"We will hold back those demons. They are mainly troops composed of low-level demon dogs. The number is very large, about...about 100,000." Vivian blushed and said: "Very Sorry, you've only just arrived in Grecon, and you're going to take part in such a high-intensity battle."
"We have no problem, in 10 hours, I will establish a defense line on this river. Air Force dispatched bombers to cover. We, after contacting the enemy, I can specifically analyze how long we can hold on." Pointing to the rough outline of the map, Air Force Commander George Hart, the division commander of the Alanhill 1st Airborne Division in charge of commanding these paratroopers, said. said.
Vivian nodded, the face behind the mask is full of exhaustion, she has been in the battle for nearly ten hours now, the magic reserve in her body has been consumed by bits and pieces, and the magic robe on her body has also been exhausted. It is full of dust, and it has long lost its elegant appearance.
But she was still polite, maintaining a high level magician etiquette, saying thank you: "No matter what the outcome is, I still want to thank you for being able to help!"
Ha Te didn't say much, just nodded his head lightly, turned around and shouted to the six battalion commanders waiting there: "One regiment and three battalions stay to protect the absolute security of the airport! Establish a circular line of defense!"
"The rest of the troops, only carry 1 day's rations and all the ammunition they can take away! Set off within 10 minutes, head west to this place on the map called the Boer River, and build a defense line along the river. !"
"Take all the weapons you can! We don't know how powerful the demon army is! So carry bazookas and mortars as much as possible!"
After he issued a series of orders, he looked towards Vivian: "We need you to cover for a while to ensure that our weapons are effective against demons, and you can leave."
Vivian Wei An nodded, looking towards the giant wolf with scars behind him: "I will stay here with Mr. Boken from the wolf clan, we need time to recover, but there is no problem with helping you deal with the demon dog."
Behind Hart, the paratroopers loaded with ammunition had already started their journey. The No. 2 tank was filled with heavy ammunition boxes and staggered forward.
These paratroopers sang high songs, carried their fully automatic weapons, and walked to their battlefield in neat steps.
"Are they fighting for the first time?" Squatting on the side of the road, giant wolf Boken asked Vivian beside him a little uneasy: "Do you think they are reliable?"
"It's not what I said, it depends on their performance..." Vivian was also not sure, these mortals who participated in such a terrifying war for the first time. Whether they have the courage to face what they are about to face.
