89. Landing at Cape York

The most cruel battle encountered by the 50th Division was on July 9. On this day, the enemy's offense can be described as crazy. The 150th regiment launched a full offensive, and on the other side, the 147th regiment and the reconnaissance camp hit the 7th Division's attack on the Australian 7 Division. After three days of blood battles, the victim of the 50th Division exceeded one -third.

The enemy's plane also launched a bombing again and again to the Republican positions. The Republican Army was not willing to show weakness. Better updates and faster!. It turned out that the dense jungles and grasslands between the mountains turned into a large piece of black mud. Potching was exposed, and it was difficult for yijing to see how many Lusè.

Wei Chengdong was sitting in a covered trenches and panting. The Australian soldier who was rushed up on the belly of the Vietnamese guy stabbed, but Méiyou injured the internal organs. The blood was exuded out, and the boy's life was really big. Wei Chengdong's engineer broke through the steel helmet, and the pick was inserted on a Australian guy's head. After a tragic melee combat, the second battalion finally retreated the enemy's offense. On the position, the position. The corpse of the soldiers of both sides is full.

Nowadays, there are only more than 300 people in the second battalion of more than a thousand people. Wei Chengdong has only him in his class. Wang Guosheng and Huang Chongwu, the squad leader, died on the second day of the battle as early as the battle. During the battle, the only six comrades in the class were killed, and the remaining three were all injured.

Wang Guosheng's arm was shot on his arm, and Wei Chengdong's forehead was cut by the shot. And the right foot was also injured by the bombed stones. The army was divided by the enemy on several high ground, Yijing lost contact with each other, and the reinforcement troops did not have zhidàoshimeshihou to arrive.

Although severe casualties appeared on the position, the United States and Australian forces still broke through their blocking lines.

At this time, in Darwin, the headquarters of the Republican Southern Pacific Army, General Jiang Chengyu was closely concerned about the war situation of the Mabuia Peninsula. Dare to compliment, because the front line of New Guinea was urgent. MacArthur actually ignored the defense weakness of the Jokko Peninsula. From here, the three divisions of the three divisions reinforced the Jinháng of the Papua Peninsula.

In the strategy formulated by the General Staff, it is to mobilize the enemy and then make a fatal blow to the York Corner.

Now the 1st Division and the Fourth Army of the Army have long been prepared to prepare for the ship. It is ready to log in to the United States and Australia's defensive weakness of the United States and Australia at the York Corner.

MacArthur fell into the "trap" set by the Republican army in New Guinea. As the three divisions were transferred to Papua. The weakness of insufficient defense forces in the north became more and more obvious. For military and industrial power, the British will pay a painful price for them to only know the colonial policy of squeezing wealth in the Oceania.

At present, the Australian army's total troops have reached 900,000 people. This Yijing is the limit that the agricultural country with less than 9 million people can bear.

yijing gave up resistance.

At dusk on July 9, more than 50 large landing ships equipped with more than 30,000 officers and soldiers in the landing war began from Kima'an.

At the same time, the fleet of the 10th Armored Division of the Fourth Army of the Army and the 4th Cavalry Division also started from Darwin and Gaden.

The landing location selected by the Republican Army is the front line of the Michel River that defended by the 41st Division of the United States.

Lieutenant Song Shijie's Navy led 4 battleships, 3 fleet aircraft, and 6 escort aircraft modified by large merchant ships, 6 cruisers, and 16 destroyers.

The troops yijing carefully marked the important defense work of the landing point on the map. The battle fleet and the cruise fleet covered the expected three login points of the expected login at the early YIJING area.

The Republican army selected the landing location to the south of the Michel River, which is relatively weak in the United States and Australia. Australia was originally a country with Méiyoushime defense. In the two years of Shijiān, it was impossible to build a complete permanent defense.

The U.S. -Australian troops concentrated the main defensive forces of York horns between the northernmost prince Island and Simuatt to Weipa, and there were three divisions defense from Vippa to Galbres.

There is a 41st Division left.

The sky is bright, and more than 2,200 land -based fighters take off from the Anadham Lowland and the dozens of military airports on Draque Island, which starts to start a large scale for more than a dozen military airports located in the U.S. coalition in York Horn.

Air strikes, the number of fighters that are dispatched with excess are the largest since the outbreak of the war.

The 150 plus bombers who took off from the three aviation ships and 6 escort ships also began to continue to bomb the scheduled beach head. After preparing for the firepower for 3 and a half hours, more than 180 landing ships began to rush to the beach head.

With the opening door of the ship's header, Nénggou's load -bearing 35 tons of landing in a 15 -meter -long landing sirlery extended to the coast, the 1st Division of the Marine War, the officers and soldiers of the 10th Division and the 4th Cavalry Division took the water tank, a crawled amphibious landing car and the

The infantry landing crafts began to rush to the beach.

The latest "Lianyungang" tank landing ship of the Republican Navy is 4750 tons, and the full -load displacement can reach 8,000 tons. One time Nénggou transports 12 water land tanks and ten amphibious tanks and 350 infantry ashore.

Nénggou accommodates 12 infantry landing crafts and 2,000 tons of combat supplies, plus a 25 -meter -long ship -sanctuary springboard. When landing on the beach at 2 degrees, the front end of the springboard is very shallow.

Login and combat requirements in the sea area.

The "Lianyungang Class" landing ship is also equipped with two four -door 37mm high -firing guns and two 2x4 joint 127mm rocket launchers. Nénggou provides opposite shore firepower support and some short -range air defense firepower.

At 7:19, the first batch of water and land tanks opened a springboard from the landing ship, and then drove towards the shore.

It was difficult, but Méiyou was counterattacked by the enemy's artillery fire. The enemy's defense was weak, and the strength of the enemy was limited. Only some machine guns and sporadic mortars were fired towards the coast.

In this area, Méiyou's shore -defense work, and not many army artillery was destroyed during the preparation of the firepower.

Go ashore smoothly and start to advance in depth.

MacArthur, this shihouyiJingmingbái of the Republican Army, is successfully landed by the Republican army. Nàme will turn into a bubble on any effort on the Papua Peninsula.

Tens of thousands of US -Australian coalitions will also fall into a desperate situation.

MacArthur ordered all the Air Force forces in North Australia to concentrate on all fighters on the Republic's landing fleet Jinháng.

The fleet entered the Kamakaya Gulf's landing fleet Jinháng attack.

Of course, Harmers will not execute such a crazy order, but it still means that all the aviation warships on their hands support the York -horn Jinháng air in Kanens, but his main force is currently in Luguville and Santa Cruise.

It takes at least two days of shijiān to rush to the battlefield.

The U.S. military dispatched more than 1,500 fighters in North Australia to attack the Republican landing fleet Jinháng, and the Republican Army was unwilling to show weaknesses. Thousands of planes in the middle of Jinháng in the middle of York Horn have an extremely Jiliè air war.
