The roar of the tank engine could be heard in the distance. The second batch of M4 main battle tanks landed ashore, covering four hundred soldiers who followed. It was the most basic tactic to use infantry to establish defensive positions and continue to expand the occupied area to the surrounding areas.
The entire Yangtze River defense line stretches for hundreds of kilometers, but if you open a hole, the whole line will collapse immediately.
The national army either fled immediately or faced death. Dozens of tanks of various types could kill three to four hundred light infantrymen with a single artillery salvo.
"Okay! The infantry is coming up!"
Fang Tianlang sat in the commander's seat and saw through the periscope the soldiers running rapidly in various directions.
Fifteen minutes into the battle, according to the plan, at least 2,500 to 3,000 soldiers should have crossed the river. The counterattack firepower of the national army was not yet known where.
Every ten minutes, two thousand soldiers will be added. The breach in front of us will only be one hundred meters wide at first and will be expanded to at least three kilometers in half an hour.
There were waves on the river, and occasionally one or two mortar shells were fired from a distance.
All small and large motor boats stopped transporting artillery and switched to transporting infantry across the river. The fifty-nine "special cargo ships" can carry nearly 2,500 soldiers in one wave and complete the crossing within five minutes.
The efficiency of mechanized ships is more than ten times more efficient than human transportation, which is enough to determine the outcome of the entire battle.
Seven to eight million participating troops are waiting to cross the river. The addition of mechanized ships will definitely shorten the waiting time of the troops.
"Charge! Charge!"
A large number of soldiers landed ashore, and the tank landing ship also completed the third round trip.
Four M4 main battle tanks staggered forward toward both wings to provide fire support for the charging infantry.
The next wave of large engine boats and tank landing ships will transport four M7 self-propelled artillery vehicles across the river together with a batch of military trucks.
Allowing some soldiers to move forward on military trucks can spread the troops to deeper and wider places faster, leaving the opponent no chance to counterattack.
The national army was unable to close the gap in the first hour, leaving only the possibility of fleeing.
"This battle! We will win again!"
"We have an advantage in firepower! We have an advantage in momentum! We also have an advantage in troop strength!"
"I hope many brothers from the national army will surrender! You are so stupid to resist at this time!"
Fang Tianlang took out chewing gum and stuffed it into his mouth. There was a brief exchange of fire on the flank but it was quickly suppressed.
When you hear the rumbling sound of artillery, you will know that it is the M4 75mm artillery firing. When encountering fire interception, you will immediately fire to suppress the fire to ensure that the infantry will not be killed by firepower.
¡¡¡¡
A misty light appeared on the horizon, and an hour passed quickly.
The 23rd Army of the Sanye 10th Corps all passed through the Yangtze River and launched attacks everywhere according to the planned attack route.
The entire Yangtze River defense line will become history in just an hour. The width of the landing zone has been expanded to 20 kilometers, enough to accommodate four to five hundred wooden boats to cross at the same time.
No matter how much the national army blocks it, it is impossible to block the fierce attack of an army. Once the twenty-day preparation is launched, the thousand-mile defense line will inevitably collapse at a certain point.
"Chief! I didn't run anywhere! Just on the river embankment! I'm very obedient!"
"Honestly, stay still!"
Fang Tianlang held the walkie-talkie in his arms, and the chief's voice came from the receiver.
"Yeah! Very good! Just wait, we'll cross the river in the afternoon! Let's eat braised pork together in the evening! The boat you robbed was a success again!"
Fang Tianlang put down the walkie-talkie and watched two large motor boats approaching at a constant speed. There was a jeep on each boat dragging a small-caliber anti-aircraft gun. It should be that the anti-aircraft firepower began to move forward.
"Chairman! Come to Taiyuan and play by yourself!"
"I won't come to Taiwan to liberate you. If I bring out the destroyers and battleships now, the world will be in chaos!"
Fang Tianlang looked at the bright sky. The battle after crossing the river must be the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. One army will cross every hour. In five or six hours, all the combat troops of the three fields will enter from the north of the Yangtze River to the south of the Yangtze River.
Sixty or seventy mechanized boats kept shuttling back and forth, which was the last straw that overwhelmed the Jiangnan National Army defenders.
The defenders of Okinawa never imagined that their ships would have the opportunity to show their strength to help the People's Liberation Army win a key battle a year later.
"Well! The mission is over! Have a good sleep!"
"Charge forward! Cover the infantry! Fight hard! Go!"
Fang Tianlang jumped out of the tank, and the whole tankIt's time to rush forward and join the fight.
¡¡¡¡
The light of the setting sun shines on the horizon.
The riverside is quiet, and the sun reflects charmingly on the water.
A large number of small wooden boats returned to the harbor. Only mechanized boats were still transporting baggage from the north shore to the south shore.
Military trucks, war horses, and heavy artillery must be transported by large ships. Although there are only a few large ships, there is no urgency because the national army has been beaten to a pulp by the frontier.
Even if the second-line troops and command organizations in the rear cross the river two or three days late, it will not affect the evolution of the war situation.
The cities in the south of the Yangtze River and the areas further away are already within your grasp. With a steady move, you can capture them without having to chase after them.
"After two months of sweeping the south of the Yangtze River and establishing a new country, I will go back to the Northeast to play in the mud"
Fang Tianlang walked out of the storage space. Several chiefs and more than a dozen guards came from a distance. A war had just begun but the outcome was already doomed. Nanjing and Shanghai would soon return to the embrace of the people.
It is definitely a great blessing for the entire country that the civil war that originally lasted more than three years ended in less than a year.
"Is it delicious? This is our first braised pork meal in Jiangnan!"
Several leaders waved their chopsticks and laughed happily at the dinner table. The cross-river operation was successfully completed with extremely few casualties, exceeding expectations.
"It's delicious. After a few more meals, I'll go back to the Northeast. There won't be a big war later."
Fang Tianlang nodded, seemingly filled with emotion.
"It is true that the war is gone, but a new front is still waiting for you, the diplomatic front. When you were postponed, you promised the chief, do you remember?"
One of the chiefs put down his chopsticks and said to Fang Tianlang.
"Remember, I have to go to Luda University before becoming a diplomat. Luda University is going to set up a military factory and is expected to produce small artillery shells. I think we need to work hard to make Luda University and the whole country produce large-caliber artillery shells." Don¡¯t worry. There will eventually be a war on the peninsula, and we can¡¯t do it without preparation in advance.¡±
Fang Tianlang nodded, and images of hundreds of sets of mechanical equipment obtained from the Czech arsenal flashed through his mind. With equipment and samples, the arsenal that originally could only produce small artillery shells could produce qualified large-caliber artillery shells.
"Oh, Tianlang, you are always thinking about the peninsula. It seems that the peninsula really needs to be guarded against."
"Well the Northeast has a heavy industry foundation, and it will support the national construction in the future. There are hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army hiding across the river, watching eagerly. Sooner or later, it will be a disaster, and the factories will not be able to operate at full capacity."
The chief nodded in agreement. The Kwantung Army hiding on the peninsula was indeed in trouble. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
