The end of the military era
Page 176
Now even if the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire draws a batch of warships from the Spike Fleet, Blood Wolf Fleet, and Blue Wolf Fleet from the Spirit Race world, it is impossible to assemble an expeditionary fleet comparable in strength to the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Han and Tang Empire.
“叶戈尔,如果给远征舰队配备14艘全主炮战列舰、16艘全钢制战列舰、20艘大型装甲巡洋舰、30艘轻巡洋舰和30艘驱逐舰。
Coupled with the Third Fleet that has already withdrawn from Pusha Island, is it possible to defeat the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire? "
Yegor, the Deputy Minister of the Navy Department of the Silver Wolf Empire, hesitated for a while and said to Governor Igna: "Governor, if the quality of the personnel on both sides is considered, our Royal Navy still has the possibility of winning.
However, there are too many main gun battleships and battlecruisers in the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires. Even if our Royal Navy can win, it will inevitably be a miserable victory.
Based on the current situation of our Royal Navy, we really can't accept too much loss, otherwise it will have a very big impact on the safety of the empire's sea area. "
Governor Igna understands the meaning of Yegor, the Vice Minister of the Navy. If the Royal Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire loses too much in the battle with the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empire, it will not be able to deal with the several spirit races who have been hostile to the Silver Wolf Empire. The country will take the opportunity to add insult to injury.
Even the Flying Leopard Empire, which has signed a 20-year non-aggression pact with the Silver Wolf Empire, might not be able to sit still if it sees that the Navy of the Silver Wolf Empire is no longer a threat.
Every orc country has done a lot to tear up the treaty.
Governor Igna sighed, "Now we can only see what the Golden Lion Empire and Red Tiger Empire have to say."
Yegor asked: "Governor, haven't the Golden Lion Empire and the Red Tiger Empire replied yet?"
Governor Igna sneered and said: "These two countries may want to wait for our Silver Wolf Empire and the three towns of Jiedu Mansion in the Han and Tang Empires to fight for a lose-lose, so that the two countries can take advantage of it later."
After a pause, Governor Igna asked, "Can the fortifications of Pusa Island withstand the attack of so many battleships and battlecruisers with all main guns from the southwestern coastal defense fleet of the Han and Tang Empire?"
Yegor said: "Don't worry, Governor, Pusa Island has been built for many years and can be called an island fortress.
And because of the existence of the eight forts on Pusha Island, the all-main-gun battleships and battlecruisers of the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet of the Han and Tang Empires did not pose much threat to the entire defense system of Pusha Island. "
"Pusha Island must never be lost. If Pusha Island falls, there is no need to worry about forming an expeditionary fleet. The Third Fleet can be withdrawn directly."
Chapter 157 The Commando
At around 1 o'clock in the evening on January 27, the Southwest Coastal Defense Fleet gathered the capital ships and secondary capital ships of several formations, and began to bombard the beach north of Pusa Island.
Immediately, thousands of wooden rowboats began to row slowly towards the beach.
On top of these thousands of wooden rowboats are the 72 infantry regiments and 3 guard battalion of the 1nd Brigade of the [-]th Division of the Zhenwei Army.
Originally last night, the 72nd Brigade was the second wave of landing troops, but due to the strong firepower deployed by the Silver Wolf Empire Army on the northern beach of Pusha Island, the 72nd Brigade landing troops had to return halfway.
The 72nd Brigade is the first wave of landing troops tonight, but it is not the real protagonist tonight.
The commando led by Xie Dong, commander of the 71st brigade, was swimming towards the cliff in the southwest of Pusha Island.
The entire commando team was selected from the 5 infantry divisions of the Zhenwei Army. There are more than 700 people in total, all of them are warriors, basically officers above the second lieutenant, and they must be able to swim.
Xie Dong has now been promoted to a mid-level martial artist. When selecting the commando team in the afternoon, Xie Dong took the initiative to ask to lead the team.
Regardless of the reason, the 71st Brigade lost the battle last night anyway.
Get up wherever you fall.
Xie Dong hoped that he could lead the commando to successfully capture the three fortresses on the highest peak of Pusha Island, which would also be considered a comfort to the souls of more than 71 fallen soldiers of the 4800st Brigade.
The cliffs in the southwest of Pusa Island are very steep, as if they are erected mirrors, and the shortest place is nearly 300 meters.
To be honest, the defense system built by the Silver Wolf Empire Army on Pusha Island was mainly to defend against other orc nations. It never occurred to them that there would be a human army that would attack Pusha Island one day.
However, the warriors of the orc race are short in flexibility, so the army of the Silver Wolf Empire did not consider at all that someone would climb up from the cliff in the southwest of Pusha Island.
However, the army of the Silver Wolf Empire placed several high-power searchlights on the fort on the highest peak, and two of the searchlights were designed to illuminate the sea on the side of the cliff at night.
So to achieve the effect of concealment, the commando team led by Xie Dong can only swim a distance of about [-] meters.
In order to avoid the searchlights, the members of the commando cannot wear life jackets or carry life buoys. When the searchlights come, the members of the commando have to dive into the sea.
In addition, the members of the commando have to carry weapons and ammunition wrapped in plastic sheets and some ropes on their bodies. Even if the members of the commando are all warriors, when they swim to the bottom of the cliff in the southwest of Pusha Island, they will all be exhausted. It was so bad that there were even more than a dozen commando members who had an accident on the way.
Standing on top of a sea rock, Xie Dong waved to the 18 commando members. The 18 commando members, who were carrying a bundle of ropes on their backs, immediately began to climb up the steep rock wall.
The 18 members of the commando team had collected medicine in the deep mountains and old forests before, and had certain experience in climbing cliffs. Each of them was wearing climbing aids on their hands and feet.
But because the cliff here is too steep, 6 members of the commando fell down during the climbing process and fell on the sea stones below the cliff. None of them survived. In the end, only 12 members of the commando successfully climbed to the top.
The 12 commando members then connected the ropes on their backs, and from the top of the cliff, three long ropes went straight to the bottom of the cliff.
As more and more commando members climbed up the cliff along the long rope, more long ropes were hung down, and soon the entire commando team climbed the cliff.
After the entire commando successfully boarded the cliff, Xie Dong immediately sent someone to send a signal to the transport ship on the sea.
According to the previous arrangement, once the commando successfully boarded the cliff, the 91 transport ships carrying the entire 8st Brigade of the [-]th Division of the Zhenwei Army would venture towards the cliff to support the commando.
Xie Dong looked at the three forts that were continuously firing shells a few hundred meters away, and said to the two lieutenant colonel leaders of the commando team: "Lao Gu, you lead the first team to capture the No. [-] fort.
Lao Xie, you lead the second team to capture the second fort, and I will bring the third team to capture the third fort.
Remember, at least the turrets must be blown up, and these three turrets must not be allowed to fire on the 91 transport ships carrying the 8st Brigade! "
The head of the lieutenant colonel known as Lao Gu immediately said: "Brigade Commander Xie, don't worry!
The brothers joined the commando team with the determination to die, if you don't succeed tonight, you will be benevolent! "
The three forts on the highest peak of Pusha Island each have a battalion of the Silver Wolf Empire Pusha Island Coastal Defense Brigade, but the wolf officers and soldiers of these 1 battalions are almost all artillery, and many of them are not even equipped with guns.
Almost every member of the commando had a Czech ZB26 light machine gun, and the surprise attack made the ensuing battle almost turn into a massacre.
Soon the three forts on the highest peak of Pusa Island fell into the hands of the commando, and the 24 220-caliber [-]mm coastal defense guns inside were also intact.
Among the members of the commando team, a lot of artillery was specially arranged, so soon the coastal defense guns of the three forts began to shell the beach to the north of Pusha Island.
Rofer, the commander of the [-]rd Marine Division of the Silver Wolf Empire, couldn't believe his ears when he learned that the three forts on the highest peak had been seized by the human army.
Could it be that those human armies flew up?
Rofer then immediately began to organize his troops in an attempt to retake the three forts on the highest peak.
However, the positions of the three forts are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Under the strong defense of the commandos, the first counterattack of the Silver Wolf Empire Army was quickly suppressed.
At this time, eight transport ships carrying more than 91 officers and soldiers of the 8st Brigade had already reached the sea below the cliff. Some officers and soldiers of the 91st Brigade were climbing to the top of the cliff along the long rope left by the commando.
In the temporary headquarters of the Third Marine Division of the Silver Wolf Empire, Inar, the deputy commander, said in a panic: "Master, what should we do now?
If those three forts fall into the opponent's hands, Pusha Island will not be able to defend at all! "
The division commander Rofer said with a grim face: "Immediately order the 33rd Marine Brigade to organize a second wave of attack immediately, and take back those three forts at all costs!"
It's a pity that as more and more officers and soldiers of the 91st Brigade climbed onto the cliff, the army of the Silver Wolf Empire let alone counterattack the three forts.
