The Rise of Australia

Chapter 884: All-Out Attack

Although the headquarters of the two Type C divisions have a certain number of anti-aircraft weapons, it is inevitable that they want to shoot down the full metal frame aircraft of Australasia.

After some attempts, the island army finally gave up the idea of ​​using anti-aircraft weapons to shoot down the Australasia aircraft, and chose to hide its headquarters completely.

But the problem is that since the headquarters has been exposed, it becomes difficult to hide.

In order to give the island army a fatal blow, the Australasia Air Force adopted the most arrogant way of fighting, that is, carpet bombing.

The good news is that most of these fighters and bombers take off from aircraft carriers, and naturally they can also get ammunition supplies from aircraft carriers.

Although the ammunition of the aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier is also limited, it is still no problem to support this bombing.

After more than an hour of replenishing ammunition, the Australasia Air Force launched a carpet bombing on the surrounding areas where the headquarters of the two Type C divisions are located.

They didn't care whether the bombing would hit the civilians of the island country. For the Australasian Air Force, there was only one task at this time, which was to destroy the command of the island country's army, leaving their Type C divisions, which were already low in combat effectiveness, leaderless and waiting to die.

The bombing was still very successful. The carpet bombing successfully destroyed the command departments of the two divisions, and directly killed the commander of the division near the port, the three dogs on the island.

Although the Australasian Air Force did not know who was killed in the bombing, the destruction of the command departments of the two divisions was still very effective.

Without the timely command of the command departments of the two divisions, the various infantry regiments of the division suddenly became chaotic.

Although there are infantry brigades above the infantry regiments, each brigade has two infantry regiments with a total of tens of thousands of troops. It is still very difficult to quickly issue orders for the combat plan of tens of thousands of people.

The Air Force launched an air strike on this division again, successfully disrupting the order of the entire division, and even made some soldiers dare not charge the enemy, and the entire division had a tendency to collapse.

The islanders were indeed helpless. The Australasian Air Force posed a great threat to them, even a fatal threat to them.

But the problem was that because their own air force had been eliminated by Australasian in advance, they had no means of counterattack when facing the attack of the Australasian Air Force.

While charging the enemy's defensive positions, they had to be careful of the threats from the planes in the sky, which simply made this Type C division exhausted.

For the soldiers of this division, it was a double torture. If they rushed forward, the enemy's firepower would smash them into pieces, and the bloody appearance of their comrades made them terrified.

If they didn't rush forward, the gendarmerie within the island army was not a joke. Although the number of gendarmerie was small, they did have the right to supervise the battle on the battlefield.

If there were soldiers from the island who stagnated or even escaped in battle, the gendarmerie had the right to execute them on the spot.

It was precisely because of the power of the island gendarmerie that these soldiers were still very afraid of the gendarmerie. The military police were behind them, making these soldiers in a state of being neither human nor human. They would die if they went forward or backward.

The Australasian side would not care about the chaos of the island army.

At this time, nearly three hours had passed since the attack, and the transport aircraft formation should have arrived in the northern Philippines.

This also means that they only need to hold on for more than three hours to wait for another batch of more than 6,000 soldiers to support them.

More importantly, Australasian has never thought of relying solely on its own paratroopers. After the paratroopers gradually control the situation, a new round of landing battles will be launched, leaving the island troops exhausted.

Sure enough, about ten minutes later, a new round of landings by the Philippine and Kalimantan troops had already started.

It was more than three o'clock in the morning, and there were more than two hours before dawn.

In the darkness, countless soldiers launched a fierce and cruel war. The loser will fall into the abyss forever, and the winner will also face another fate gamble.

Different from the previous attack. The previous landing battle was obviously fought with restraint. Australasia's purpose was more to train troops rather than to quickly break through the Ryukyu Islands.

But after sending out paratroopers this time, Australasia obviously wanted to break through the Ryukyu Islands with all its strength.

In addition to using the air force and the army, Australasia also dispatched a luxurious lineup of 6 aircraft carriers, 2 battleships, and 3 battlecruisers as the main warships in the navy.

The purpose of these navies is naturally to use powerful shipborne artillery to let the islanders feel the baptism of artillery fire.

Because it was a general attack, the navy was not stingy. A large amount of artillery fire tilted down towards the island army's garrison, like a particularly heavy rainstorm.

Bang!

Bang, bang, bang!

The continuous loud noises were like thunder, and the explosions and flames after contacting the land and facilities were like lightning of judgment.

No one would underestimate the power of shipborne artillery, even the artillery of battleships that were outdated 20 years ago.

You have to know that the caliber of the ship-borne main guns of that era was also extremely exaggerated, over 300 mm.

Such artillery was used to bombard land troops, which was like a cannon hitting a mosquito, and it could only be said to be devastating.

Even the defensive positions and artillery positions built by the island army based on the terrain are as fragile as tofu when facing the bombing of such large-caliber artillery.

What's more terrible is that the width of the Ryukyu Islands is not vast, and basically the entire archipelago is within the bombing range of the navy.

For the island army stationed on the Ryukyu Islands, from this moment on, it is their most terrible and painful moment.

Perhaps the two island country C-type divisions stationed around the city and the port should be thankful. Because the Australasian army has been fighting with them at close range, the navy's bombing list does not include their place.

Otherwise, what the shipborne artillery destroyed was not their beliefs, but their spirit that they had always adhered to on the battlefield.

When the spirit is destroyed, that is when they turn from normal people into lunatics and psychopaths.

Such examples are not unheard of. Because the battlefield is too cruel, many recruits who were originally ordinary farmers, even if they survived the battlefield by chance, will suffer from post-war syndrome and other battlefield-related diseases.

The mild ones are nervous and restless in their lives, unable to concentrate and have difficulty sleeping. The severe ones may even become crazy and be tortured by the cruel scenes of the battlefield day and night.

It is obvious that the psychological endurance of ordinary people is limited. Even trained soldiers will be shocked when they suddenly face more cruel scenes.

Of course, in areas bombed by ship-borne artillery, it is very difficult to have broken legs and arms.

Large-scale artillery of this caliber can sink battleships with full steel armor, not to mention ordinary people with only blood and flesh.

Generally, after being bombed by this kind of ship-borne artillery, there will be basically nothing left except a small amount of clothing fragments.

"Go! The general said that everyone will have fresh steaks to eat when they enter Naha today! The first infantry formation to enter Naha will be rewarded!" Commanders at all levels in the Philippines and Kalimantan shouted frantically.

For these Filipinos and Kalimantans, there are only two things that attract them the most, one is delicious food, and the other is generous rewards.

Food can fill the stomach, and rewards can be brought home to the family to improve their lives.

After all, the economy of the Philippines and Kalimantan was not very good at that time, and the living environment of the Filipinos and Kalimantan people was naturally not very good.

Joining the Australasian army will have enough meat to eat, and their families can get a better life. This is why they are willing to work for Australasian.

Of course, Australasian's control over their government at all levels is one of the reasons why they have to join the Australasian army to work.

Especially in the Philippines, which has a higher level of education, this war has been promoted as a life-and-death war between the island country and the Philippines in the Philippines.

Because Australasian has controlled the public opinion in the Philippines, the reports of the Philippine media have described the importance of this war to the Philippines, and emphasized how cruel the island country is.

In other words, for these Filipinos, they are not fighting for Australasian, but fighting to defend their own country.

What's more, there are practical benefits for them to participate in this war. Once they have made contributions, their children will have the opportunity to study in Australasian and become the best in the Philippines.

After several years of development, Australasia has already had a very tight control over the Philippines.

Every year, a small number of Filipinos who successfully graduate from Australasia and return to the Philippines are definitely superior people with superior status and position.

It is precisely this huge improvement in status and position that makes many Filipinos look forward to studying in Australasia, and even their lifelong dream.

But unfortunately, it is very difficult to study in Australasia.

In addition to the small number of places that Australasia opens to senior Philippine officials every year, ordinary Filipinos who want to study in Australasia either have to bear a lot of expenses or have talents far beyond others, that is, geniuses.

This also makes the opportunity to study in Australasia very popular in the Philippines. Even those Hispanics who are already Filipinos generally hope to study in Australasia.

Because in Australasia, they can obtain the top academic environment and teaching resources in Oceania and Asia, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is world-class and top.

Except for a few universities in Europe that have been established for a longer time and are more well-known, the universities in Australasia can be said to be no less than any other schools.

For Arthur, if he can gain the loyalty of the Philippine army by paying a certain amount of study abroad quota, it would be perfect.

The study abroad quota is not expensive for Arthur, after all, those wealthy Filipino businessmen also provide a lot of funds for the universities in Australasia every year.

And the students trained by these study abroad quotas, who are more capable, will also be sought by Australasia to stay in the country.

In other words, such behavior will not only not become a financial burden for Australasia, but will also attract more people to Australasia, which is basically a sure win.
