Chapter 404 The 1st Marine Division Is Coming

[404] The first marine division is here

In the lighthouse on Bawei Island, the Thompson waterproof gun reflects the moonlight, giving off a simple black light.

For Captain Eugene Clark, even though he has carried out many secret missions, his nerves have always been strong, but now it is really torture to watch the clock every second.He imagined the worst ending, constantly deduced the failures he might face, and was mentally prepared to face any unexpected situation.

Because he knew so much, he had to wear a suicide grenade in his belt in case he had to deal with it himself.

Finally, the midnight of August 8th came. Clark, who had not had a good night's sleep for more than half a month and was exhausted and excited, lit up the eight-tailed lighthouse tremblingly with the kerosene lighter in his hand. Made in France The moment the large oil-burning navigation light was lit, it made a "tiger" sound.

On the lighthouse, the reflector that Clark reconnected to the battery slowly rotated, and the bright beam of light slowly danced outside the port of Incheon in the night sky.This light, for ships at sea, can be clearly seen even 40 kilometers away.Not to mention night flights.

Seeing the rekindling of the Balmido Island Lighthouse, the People's Army in Incheon Port suddenly became agitated. After the early warning telegram was sent out, the Deputy Commander Cui Yongjian of the People's Army knew that the U.S. military was coming.

Two days ago, the U.S. military dispatched F4U Corsair fighter jets and used 64 napalm bombs weighing 150 pounds and a total of 9500 pounds to blow up Moonmid Island, which Captain Clark reported in his telegram, to have a defensive force.

In fact, this operation has reminded the People's Army that the intelligence of the Chinese comrades is completely correct, and the enemy has begun to perform aerial surgery on Incheon according to the landing steps.

Regarding the situation beyond his control, Deputy Commander Cui Yongjian could only pray silently that the defenders on Yuewei Island could cause as many damages to the US troops as possible.

The task force headed by the U.S. Seventh Fleet, which had been waiting anxiously on the Yellow Sea outside Incheon, immediately corrected its course when the lighthouse was lit, and headed straight for Incheon Port.

In the first wave of [-] warships, four cruisers and six destroyers acted as the lead and rushed forward in a single file, advancing into the Flying Fish channel. While using naval guns to destroy all visible buildings on the shore that might conceal the army, they extended their bombardment. , pouring shells on the road connecting Incheon in the distance, with the intention of cutting off all traffic between Incheon and the outside world.

On the task force flagship "McKinley Mount", MacArthur pointed to the lighthouse lit on the eight-tailed island in the distance, and proudly told the accompanying reporters and generals, "That is a gift for us."

All of a sudden, when the moon was lit up, a piece of artillery began to resist. This was the People's Army who survived the US air strike. According to the order, they were asked to continue to hold on to the Moon Island.

The U.S. military did not feel the slightest discomfort with this firefly light. As the 19 warships of the Naval Gun Fire Support Group led by Major General Higgins fired fiercely, in 45 minutes, the U.S. military consumed 2845 rounds of shells on Yuemido Island. After the napalm bombs of the naval carrier-based aircraft, Wolmido was plowed again. After 2845 shells, there was no trace of the solid concrete bunkers built during the Japanese occupation on Yuewei Island. There were deep bomb craters everywhere, and the low-level soil that had not seen the sun for thousands of years was dug out, and the smell of gunpowder was everywhere. And the fishy smell of Xintu.

However, the artillery fire of the People's Army's fortress never ended under the US naval guns. Several well-concealed 120mm howitzers on Yuewei Island were pushed out of the artillery holes by the defenders, and sporadic shelling sounded from time to time.Therefore, General James, the interim commander of the task force, ordered to dispatch three rocket launchers to attack Moonmid Island.

The rocket strikes by the three rocket launchers continued until dawn. A total of 1000 rounds of 125mm rockets were evenly scattered on Yuewei Island within an hour. In a short while, the air on the island was almost drained.

The saturation attack of artillery fire continued until dawn, and Wolmido Island, the artillery fortress outside Incheon Port, has been completely changed so far.The pilot who was in charge of the air raid on Wolmido Island recalled that when he came to the air raid again in the early morning, there was no trace of green on the island that was originally verdant.Margaret, a reporter from New York's "International Herald Tribune", said that when she passed Moonmid Island with the warship in the early morning, "it seems that this place has just been ransacked by a forest fire."

So far, the defenders of the artillery fortress on Yuemido Island have basically been wiped out. The world-leading U.S. Navy has shown its mighty dominance at the edge of the sea. They have proved with artillery fire that all places bordering the ocean are covered Under the control of his unrivaled naval firepower.

With the first ray of dawn in the morning, the US landing ships filed in and began to land.

Hundreds of F77U pirate fighters and attack planes taking off from the Boxer, Forge Valley, and Sicily aircraft carriers under the 4th Eastern Aircraft Carrier Task Force also began to carry out ground attacks on the entire Incheon Port under the brighter and brighter morning light , All moving objects will be blown to death by rockets and napalm bombs, and machine guns are mercilessly sprayed over the entire Incheon sky.

After the U.S. fire support fleet almost destroyed more than half of the loaded artillery shells and ravaged Incheon to its fullest, the People's Army never returned fire.The US destroyers began to withdraw from the flying fish channel.

Although the People's Army sank two old merchant ships in the Flying Fish Channel before, due to the high tide, the water level rose sharply, and the soft mud in the channel was too deep, the tonnage of the sunken ships was too small, and did not pose a threat to the passage of US warships.

The U.S. military also found some sea mines on the near-shore soil above the Flying Fish Channel. This is the desperate effort of the People's Army. With the capabilities of the People's Army, it is impossible to complete deep-water mine operations. above the mudflats.

After the destroyer withdrew from the channel, 232 landing ships of various types began to send the soldiers of the US-South Korea coalition forces to the beach one by one by virtue of the rising tide.

The Tenth Army of the U.S. Army, composed of the 17st Marine Division and the 4th Infantry Division, plus the newly formed 75000th South Korean Infantry Regiment and [-] Marine Corps Battalions, with a total strength of [-], began to fight at sea. Forced landing under the cover of full artillery fire by the Air Force.

After the U.S. Army launched an amphibious landing on Okinawa on April 1945, 4, the first large-scale U.S. landing operation after World War II officially began.

As the dock landing ships continued to dock, the 9st Tank Battalion of the 26th Marine Regiment of the 1800st Marine Division of the United States rumbled in a row of [-] m-[-] "Pershing" tanks, and broke into Incheon as a pioneer. The [-] infantry of the Second Battalion of the Fifth Marine Corps followed the tanks and began the battle to occupy Incheon.

The landing battle lasted from early morning to dark, and 12 hours later, the US army captured Incheon.

After occupying Incheon, the U.S. military went straight to Seoul along the Gyeongin Highway without stopping.

The Deputy Commander Cui Yongjian of the People's Army ordered that the Beijing-Ren Highway blocking battle officially started.

Facing the mobile attack of the U.S. Army, a tank company of the People's Army, six T34 tanks and an infantry company of 250 people were ordered to attack, starting the first battle of the blocking war.

First, the super bazooka rocket launcher of the 70nd Marine Battalion of the 34th Marine Regiment of the 9st Marine Division showed its power, destroying a T26 [-] meters away, and then the US recoilless guns also opened fire, and the mortars were roaring. After that, [-] M[-] Pershing tanks rushed up, and the whole battalion of light and heavy machine guns accompanied the tanks to shoot.

Five minutes later, the battle ended. The U.S. combined firepower completely smashed all 5 T6s of the People's Army, killed 34 people of the People's Army, and won a complete victory. Only one person was injured in the Second Battalion of the Fifth Marine Regiment of the First Division of the U.S. Marine War.

This is the combat effectiveness of the US Marine Division [-], the most powerful permanent mobile force of the US Army, an army group ready to go to any battlefield in the world at any time.

Can the volunteer army who is about to come to aid challenge such an opponent?

Or, can such an army break through the blocking positions of Deputy Commander Cui Yongjian in the future?
