Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 1064 1065 Chaotic Beach

 A Type 63 amphibious tank ran over the corpses on the ground and fired a shot at the bunker in the distance. The huge explosion spread in the thinning white fog, reflecting the faces of the advancing Marines.

"Thud, tug, tug!" The Tang Army marines carrying Type 56 assault rifles swept across the Mirage defenders in the trenches. From time to time, someone stepped on the booby traps and died. Soon some Mirage soldiers carrying submachine guns appeared, barely holding on from the side. The Tang army attacked.

On the front, within the thick cement fortifications, Mirage soldiers were firing at the beach with Maxim heavy machine guns. Their vision had become much better, but the targets in front of them had also become much more complicated.

There are advancing amphibious armored vehicles on the beach, as well as amphibious tanks that have landed. More Marines have landed, and machine gun fire can no longer continue to threaten these fragile targets.

"Keep firing! Keep firing!" In the bunker, the Mirage officer slashed forward with his command knife, which was not much longer than a dagger, shouting crazily.

The Mirage soldier holding the handle of the machine gun with both hands stepped on the bench, pouring ammunition at the target in the distance from a high position.

To be honest, there are few troops that can attack the Tang Empire's troops so brazenly. These goblins have indeed taken advantage now. They have killed a large number of Datang Empire soldiers that they might not have been able to kill in a previous battle.

“Chug, chug, chug!” The Maxim machine gun kept firing, and tracer bullets streaked through the thinning smoke. The bullets hit the steel plate of the landing craft, the armor of the tank, and the bodies of many Tang Army soldiers.

The Tang Army infantry who had already opened the gap were expanding their victory. An amphibious armored vehicle covered another group of soldiers approaching the reef. Following the gap in the trench next to the reef, soldiers from the Tang Empire swarmed in and rushed into the Mirage Army's defensive position.

"For His Majesty the Mirage Emperor! Long live!" The Mirage soldiers with bayonets inserted into their guns shouted crazily and rushed towards the Tang Army soldiers who were not yet firmly on their feet.

However, dense assault rifle bullets swept over their faces, driving back these fanatical converts.

With the cover of the armored tanks, the Tang Army's attack speed became faster. A thin-skinned and large-sized 63 amphibious tank twisted its fat body and ran over the broken mirage trenches.

The tracks knocked over the piled sandbags. As soon as the bullet-riddled Type 63 amphibious tank passed by, a goblin holding an explosive pack pounced on the Tang Empire tank from behind.

The next second, a huge explosion engulfed the tank, and then the Type 63 amphibious tank exploded. The explosion blew away everything around it, leaving only a twisted and deformed steel wreckage.

 Both sides were already red-eyed, and they were fighting desperately in a very small area. The soldiers of the Tang Empire were advancing along the trenches one meter at a time, while the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom were desperately fighting back against the attacking soldiers of the Tang Empire.

 From the beginning, only the soldiers of the Tang Empire were bleeding, and now it has evolved into the fact that soldiers from both sides are bleeding. Everyone is killing like crazy, desperately trying to put each other to death.

 “Grenade!” After obtaining a better firing position, the Marines of the Tang Empire began to take advantage of their weapons and equipment.

A row of soldiers knelt on one knee, picked up the Type 56 assault rifle with a grenade attached, and shot the grenade away with a high-throwing gesture.

A few seconds later, these grenades fell from a high altitude and landed near the trenches where the Mirage defenders were stationed like mortar shells, raising dust that covered the sky.

"Again!" Under the command of the commander, these grenadiers took out the grenades from the satchels on their waists, stuffed them into the muzzle of the grenade launcher from the front, and fired another round.

The place where the explosion had just occurred in the distance once again raised mud. This time, the Mirage defenders really couldn't hold on.

There were more and more Tang Army tanks on the beach. Although many were stuck in the sand, and some were destroyed by mines and artillery shells, there were still tanks approaching their positions.

The Tang Army on the side is also fighting more and more. They have opened a huge gap along the trench, and more and more Tang Army soldiers are coming ashore from the gap.

Even though the smoke was about to dissipate, the Tang Army had no intention of replenishing the smoke bombs. However, as the field of vision improved, the Tang Army's attacks became more accurate.

The Tang Empire snipers hiding in the corner were killing the Mirage soldiers who showed up. The number of Mirage machine gunners killed began to increase, and the entire defense line began to shake.

The defense line built up by relying on numbers was no longer effective. The Mirage soldiers holding Cyric 1 rifles suffered heavy casualties. Their follow-up was weak and they were gradually unable to rely on counterattacks to continue to exert pressure on the Tang army.

In relatively safe areas, the large-caliber mortars equipped on the modified Type 77 amphibious armored vehicles have landed. They can provide soldiers with more accurate and timely fire support. The hidden but not very strong machine gun positions in the mirage I began to lose my footing. Accompanied by the sound of engines, carrier-based aircraft of the Tang Empire appeared over the battlefield. These Stuka dive bombers with their wings swept upwards suddenly brought the officers of the Mirage back to their horrific memories.

Many Mirage officers had witnessed the terror of Stuka dive bombers during the Battle of the North Abyss. The way they dive down and drop 500 kilograms of bombs has always haunted the minds of these mirage officers like a nightmare.

There are also some Mirage officers who participated in the Battle of Fengjiang, and they have all seen the process of their Stukas killing the enemy: these vulture-like aircraft will swoop down from the sky, and then they will appear on the enemy's position. A huge plume of smoke rose up.

"Damn...how do they have planes?" A Mirage commander heard the sound of the engine, raised his head and saw the figure of Stuka, and cursed subconsciously.

 As he cursed, a Stuka dive bomber flew almost vertically to the ground and dropped a 500-kilogram bomb on the position where Mirage soldiers were stationed.

The impact point was less than 5 meters away from a reinforced concrete bunker. The huge crater directly destroyed all nearby trenches.

The bunker was also affected by the explosion, and part of the area collapsed directly. All the Mirage soldiers inside were also shocked to death. In an instant, the Mirage Army lost another fire support point.

As aerial bombs fell from the sky one after another, the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom felt that the ground beneath their feet was shaking.

The attack by the soldiers of the Tang Empire seemed to have stopped, because the landing marines were busy unfurling national flags or lighting red burning sticks in the areas they controlled: they wanted to instruct their bombers not to drop bombs On one's own head.

The two escorting pirate fighter jets started strafing targets on the ground with their 20mm cannons. The cannon shells plowed deep ravines on the ground. The vicinity of the ravines was littered with corpses of Mirage soldiers.

"Boom!" Just when the Mirage soldiers were busy looking up at the sky and firing guns into the sky in an attempt to drive away those annoying aircraft overhead, a violent explosion occurred at a Mirage position.

 25 kilometers away, the muzzle of the 380 mm caliber main gun on the battleship Dongwan No. 1 was still emitting light smoke.

 In the closed turret, soldiers were operating machinery to clean the gun barrel and prepare for reloading. While they were busy, the tail of another artillery gun on the left suddenly sat back. Even through the thick armor and earplugs, the artillery operators heard the deafening bang.

A shell rushed out of the muzzle of the 380mm heavy gun, passed over the transport ship loaded with supplies on the sea below, then passed over the giant ship that was unloading soldiers, and then passed over countless densely packed landing craft and landing ships.

 It began to fall, losing height and speed. When it was about to hit the ground, it was almost vertical. Finally, it hit an open space and suddenly exploded several meters deep underground.

The surrounding ground trembled, and the nearby bunkers and trenches were shattered, deformed, collapsed and destroyed in an instant. The soil was thrown nearly a hundred meters into the air, and when it fell it seemed like a rain of mud and sand.

After the tragic explosion, the nearby battlefield seemed to have calmed down. The huge crater spanned the two trenches, even squeezing the two trenches out of shape.

"The coordinates are offset by 0.1 to the left! Repeat, the coordinates of the impact point of the artillery shell are offset by 0.1 to the left!" On land, the liaison officer responsible for correcting the impact point of artillery shells grabbed the intercom on the walkie-talkie and loudly reminded the fleet.

  Even closer, the Tang Empire Navy destroyer squadron, which had been lined up in a straight line offshore, was violently pouring out its ammunition.

A loader wearing a heavy insulating suit pushed a shell into the bore of his main gun. The breech immediately closed automatically, and the gun fired and recoiled, followed by ejecting the steaming shell casing.

 Another loader was already in position holding the cannonball. He pushed the cannonball in his hand into the gun breech. The destroyer's main gun fired again, and the muzzle once again spurted out blazing flames.

On the bridge, the liaison officer nervously tore down a message, then walked to the artillery commander: "No firing in areas 56-74!"

"Cease fire! Cease fire! You hit the shells on your own heads! Turn the muzzle! Coordinates 82-91" the artillery commander hurriedly grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted loudly!

The destroyer next door continued to fire, and further away, more destroyers were also desperately firing shells at the already smoking mirage position. In fact, there are no targets visible over there, and there is smoke everywhere, but the fleet responsible for artillery support still has no intention of ceasefire.
