December 22nd
The reaction speed of the Magnesium Army after suffering a heavy setback was quite fast.
Within four days, the next main parachute area and a backup parachute area were determined. Another 165 C-47 transport aircraft also entered the designated airport to stand by.
In one wave, 4,200 soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division were deployed to occupy four hills about eight kilometers away from the forward confrontation line and then launch an advance operation in the direction of the front.
The frontal combat unit will launch an attack with full firepower after the parachute is successful.
Paratroopers do not necessarily need to rush into the firefighting area to fight. They can attract the firepower of the volunteers from the sides and rear, which can reduce a lot of resistance in frontal attacks.
Without heavy firepower, it is difficult for paratroopers to become the main force in a battle.
The commander of the Magnesium Army believed that the loss of two thousand paratroopers in order to penetrate a line of defense was an extremely reasonable price.
If you can cut the opponent's defense line in half, you will have the opportunity to cut off the communication line behind it and put the opponent into a situation without ammunition and various supplies.

"Beep¡"
"Hmm! Why are there so many radar signals!? The Americans are starting to parachute!"
Fang Tianlang was sleeping in the storage space. He woke up from his sleep and rushed into the radar control room.
The cxam-1 long-wave early warning radar on the heavy cruiser "Indianapolis" emits a chirping alarm, which means that an opponent's fighter plane is approaching.
A spot of light on the A-type oscilloscope is equivalent to a fighter plane, and there are at least more than a hundred of them densely packed in front of you.
"Yeah! It's a parachute drop! There's still time!"
"Mei Guoguo! This is your own radar! Lock yourself in!"
Fang Tianlang ducked out of the storage space with a faint smile on his face.
The detection range of the cxam-1 long-wave early warning radar exceeds 80 kilometers, which means that there is at least a 15-minute warning time.
Before the Magnesium Army paratroopers start to parachute, all the volunteer tanks will spread out to cooperate with the infantry to attack. It is best to capture the paratroopers, and if not, they will be destroyed directly.
"All ministries are on the highest alert! The Magnesium Army will implement parachute operations in ten minutes! If you can capture prisoners, capture them; if not, shoot them to death!"
"The frontline units are temporarily withdrawing from their positions! Avoid the bombardment of the Magnesium Army! Hurry! There are still nine minutes!"
"yes!"
Several combat staff officers grabbed the phone and issued instructions, and urgent voices rang one after another.
After a phone call, a military command center received the order and quickly issued it level by level.
From the army to the division, from the division to the regiment, from the regiment to the battalion, from the battalion to the company and then to the soldiers at the bottom, more than 300,000 soldiers all entered combat status in five minutes and dispatched elite troops according to the plan to prepare for anti-parachute operations.
"Coming in!"
Fang Tianlang took the time to sneak into the storage space, looked at the graphics on the oscilloscope and walked out quickly.
¡¡¡¡
"One by one! Hurry! Boys!"
Umbrella flowers suddenly appeared in the night sky, and magnesium army paratroopers jumped out one after another from the open hatch.
Underfoot is a completely unfamiliar land and cold air that can freeze people alive. Any commander who decides to start the war in winter should be sent to a military court.
Even Alaska further north is not as scary as the peninsula¡¯s winter.
The first batch of U.S. paratroopers landed on the ground a minute later. Deadly fire suddenly appeared in the darkness. A dozen light and heavy machine guns were spraying ammunition wildly a few hundred meters away. There were also no less than ten small-caliber mortars firing shells.
"We were discovered! Damn it! How come it's so fast!"
"Get down! We were ambushed! The volunteers are too cunning! They didn't shoot in the air! They were waiting for us to parachute!"
The sound of explosions quickly suppressed the shouts of the Magnesium Army paratroopers on the ground.
As soon as the second group of paratroopers jumped out of the cabin, they saw the fireball exploding on the ground and immediately showed a horrified expression.
"Boom! Boom!"
Sharp shrapnel shot in all directions, and the Magnesium Army paratroopers fell painfully in the detonation airflow.
Three su-122 self-propelled artillery and four t-26 tanks swing their muzzles and fire shells outward without aiming at all.
Shooting the most shells in the shortest time can cause a devastating blow to the opponent. Shooting two hundred shells across a wide area in five minutes can kill at least three to four hundred of the most elite paratroopers.
"It's the country guy! Shoot! Shoot!"
¡°Da da da¡ daDa da¡"
An infantry company and a machine gun platoon rushed into place for reinforcements. Hundreds of semi-automatic rifles and four heavy machine guns fired bullets like raindrops on the Magnesium Army paratroopers.
What was happening in front of them was a one-way massacre that did not give the Magnesium Army paratroopers any chance to counterattack.
Every two or three minutes around the parachute area, a few more tanks or self-propelled artillery fired shells with full firepower. It was a miracle that a hundred soldiers survived after the small parachute area was covered by a thousand shells of various types.
"If you hand over your gun, you won't kill! If you hand over your gun, you won't kill!"
"Give up! you won't be killed!"
"lay down your arms! you won't be killed!"
A BT-7 fast tank equipped with a loudspeaker rushed forward, and the tank driver in the tank announced loudly in English.
Living prisoners of war are the most valuable while dead prisoners of war can only be used in exchange for supplies.
It is best for the opponent to surrender, but if he resists, he will destroy them all. Thousands of paratroopers have absolutely no chance of winning when facing dozens of tanks, self-propelled artillery and more and more volunteer soldiers.
The parachute area is surrounded by uninhabited wilderness. Even if you break out, you will be captured sooner or later because there are no supplies.
The magnesium army paratroopers were suppressed by fierce firepower, and the magnesium army commander decisively canceled the forced assault operation.
¡°If the volunteers can respond quickly to the parachute drop, they will definitely make corresponding deployments on the confrontation line. At this time, artillery bombardment will definitely have no effect and is a complete waste of ammunition.
The sound of gunfire in the wilderness became increasingly rare, and illumination bombs rose into the night sky.
The paratroopers of the Magnesium Army heard the surrender broadcast and saw more and more tanks surrounding them, and then they chose to surrender.
Continuing to resist will only lead to more violent firepower projection. Parachute operations require an absolutely safe time of no less than ten minutes to gather enough soldiers to attack the target.
The parachute in front of you was attacked by machine guns, mortars, tanks and artillery in turn in the first minute, and it was destined to be unable to form any attack.
"Fire twenty more flares! Take away all the prisoners!"
"Weapons, ammunition and supplies! And the wounded! Take them all away! The commander will see them tomorrow!"
The shouts rang out in the cold wind. Hundreds of soldiers rushed to the firefighting area to capture prisoners and collect various trophies. There were blown-up corpses everywhere. It was impossible to calculate how many targets had been eliminated. They could only wait until dawn to take a closer look.
"very good!"
"Everyone, get some rest! You can report it again tomorrow morning. It won't take more than half a day. Be careful at night. There may be fish that slip through the net. Be vigilant! Don't be attacked!"
Fang Tianlang put down the phone and rested peacefully.
The magnesium army was beaten so hard that it took a few days to be honest at least. After dawn, we will know which army was so unlucky to be thrown down first. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
