Chapter 220: Listen to Me, You Can't Go Wrong

"This Japanese Navy is actually this formidable."

"This round of coordinated artillery fire is truly terrifying."

"That's right!"

"This is the first time I've ever seen the power of a navy be this great!"

"This is much more formidable than Marshal Liu Dashuai's naval forces!"

The Sichuan Army generals of the 144th Division were discussing it heatedly!

Now that the Water Mines were not detonating, they felt very strange, wondering what exactly was going on.

During the discussion between Yu Hua and Guo Xunqi.

It was far more formidable than they had imagined.

"Only then will they take the initiative to launch an attack!"

"They've come ashore and are all lying on the ground; what are they preparing to do?"

These countries are all powerful nations!

Their naval strength is actually superior to that of the Japanese.

"The water level is high right now, so the Japanese ships cannot hit the Water Mines."

There was still mist in the morning, and the Japanese Transport Ships quickly passed through the white fog and docked at the shore.

"It is only behind the United States and the British Isles."

That is, Marshal Liu Dashuai also once possessed his own naval forces.

But today, seeing the Japanese naval guns firing in unison.

To fire a second shot, they still have to re-anchor to stabilize the ship.

Yu Hua put down the Telescope in his hand.

A Regiment would likely be wiped out by the shelling in an hour.

Yu Hua saw the expressions of the crowd and smiled slightly, "Are you feeling very surprised?"

Just as Yu Hua was explaining to the Sichuan Army personnel, the first wave of Japanese.

Guo Xunqi saw the Japanese Transport Ships docking so easily.

"Division Commander!" Wang Dadan walked forward: "Should we let the Mortar units fire a few shots at those bastards?"

"Everyone, don't be impatient!"

Speaking of the navy, these Sichuan Army soldiers had seen it before.

There were over fifty of these first-wave Transport Ships.

Furthermore, if other ships approached, their speed would create waves.

"Brother Yu!"

Zhao Gongming looked at Yu Hua: "Adjutant Yu!"

They had all come ashore; over two thousand Japanese soldiers were all lying on the beach.

The Japanese Navy's power is quite fierce.

"After the tide goes out and the water level is shallow, if the Japanese transport troops again, they will definitely get blown up."

Therefore, everyone did not have a good impression of the navy.

The waters of Jinshanwei are too shallow.

Yu Hua waved his hand, "It is not yet time!"

After the Japanese naval guns stopped shelling!

One by one, the Transport Ships, filled with Japanese soldiers, began to sail toward the shore.

By blocking the Sichuan Army's interception, the follow-up troops could easily land at Jinshanwei.

That is, the naval forces' combat effectiveness was not very good.

No wonder Adjutant Yu told the Sichuan Army units not to place everyone on the front line.

This strength is indeed terrifying!

The soldiers of the Sichuan Army, upon hearing about the strength of the Japanese fleet, all gasped in cold air.

"You must not underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Japanese Navy."

"According to the Japanese command tactics, they want to assemble the strength of a Regiment."

They did not continue to advance forward!

Guo Xunqi and Zhao Gongming saw through their Telescopes the dense mass of Japanese soldiers lying on the ground.

Seeing Guo Xunqi's worried expression, Yu Hua patted his shoulder.

At a glance!

They saw the Japanese soldiers on the coast lying on the ground one after another.

Yanagawa Heisuke felt that a Regiment was safer; as long as a Beachhead Position was established.

And Marshal Liu Dashuai's navy was mocked by many shipping companies within Sichuan Province at the time.

For Yanagawa Heisuke!

Everyone nodded in unison!

"At the 1922 Washington Conference, the Japanese Navy was officially ranked third in the world."

If you encounter a naval vessel, you must take the initiative to stop and yield; if you sink a naval vessel, you have to pay compensation!!

Therefore, at the time, someone specifically wrote a doggerel poem to mock Marshal Liu Dashuai's fleet.

The Japanese inside climbed over the cabin again, waded through the seawater, quickly went ashore, and lay on the ground.

He believed that a force of one Regiment was appropriate for the first attack.

"Gentlemen!"

His brows furrowed slightly: "Brother Yu!"

"You previously had the Navy units lay Water Mines in the Jinshanwei Sea Area."

"You are the one with broad knowledge, Brother Yu; I am just a rough man with no culture."

Furthermore, according to intelligence, the Sichuan Army had also moved troops to the Jinshanwei area.

The Japanese transport ships that arrived at the shore one after another behind them—the Japanese soldiers inside also disembarked and lay prone on the shore.

The warships were truly fast, taking only seven days from Wan to Yu.

Warning the cedar boats along the river, the waves from the warships would cause them to sink and require compensation.

At the time, notices were specifically written to inform the fishermen and the people from the shipping companies.

This made Guo Xunqi find it hard to believe!

The remaining Sichuan Army generals were also staring at each other in blank dismay.

Even Guo Xunqi could not figure out what the Japanese were trying to do with this formation?!

"The Japanese are lying on the ground; if they aren't attacking, what are they doing?"

After the leading transport ships docked, the Japanese jumped down from the ship cabins.

Old Guo was aware of Yu Hua's previous plan.

Although everyone could not see the Japanese fleet in the Jinshanwei Sea Area.

Upon hearing this, Guo Xunqi suddenly realized, "No wonder!"

"Without the Water Mines to intercept them, the Japanese troop strength coming ashore later will be even greater."

The Sichuan Army generals' understanding of the Navy was all learned from Marshal Liu's Navy.

The transported force was over two thousand men, two battalions of Japanese.

"What kind of turtle-shell formation are these Japanese putting on?"

The engines of the transport ships were roaring "Boom—" on the sea surface.

So many countries in Europe, such as Gaul, Germany, Italy, the Russian state, and so on.

Everyone waited quietly for reinforcements to arrive; not a single Japanese dared to breathe loudly.

"Brother Yu, the Water Mines laid by the Navy units, they haven't failed, have they?!"

"These Japanese transport ships have all come ashore now; why haven't we seen the Water Mines explode?!"

Just as everyone was discussing this, several more transport ships passed through the white fog and docked.

After coming ashore, all the Japanese lay flat on the ground.

After these Japanese disembarked, they quickly waded through the seawater and rushed onto the land.

"The Japanese Navy is now third in the world."

The first wave of Japanese to come ashore were all light infantry, holding only Light Machine Guns and Rifles.

Encountering such bombardment from Japanese Naval Guns.

Regarding this point!

The Sichuan Army generals also knew that Marshal Liu's fleet had relatively poor combat effectiveness.

It could directly sink Marshal Liu's naval vessels, and to avoid sinking ships, Marshal Liu...

"Their Navy is actually third in the world!?"

The Sichuan Army had caused quite a stir in the Pingjin Region; the combat effectiveness of the Sichuan Army still needed to be re-evaluated.

"Only then will they launch an attack!!"

He turned his head to look at everyone: "This is also the Japanese's first time conducting a beach landing."

"Should we concentrate our firepower now and strike the Japanese in one wave?"

The 10th Army landing at Jinshanwei was a large-scale Landing Operation.

So many Japanese soldiers were like fish lying neatly on the beach.

After Zhao Gongming saw this scene, he felt it was very strange.

"The Water Mines laid by the Navy units in the middle of the night were laid during low tide."

The two of them wished they could fire a burst at him!

Every time Marshal Liu's naval vessels fired a shot, the hull would recoil a long distance.

This piece of news really frightened them.

The Japanese's large warships could not approach the land and could only use small transport ships.

"These are just the super-large warships I mentioned; I won't even talk about the remaining ships."

"What?!" Guo Xunqi widened his eyes: "The Japanese are an island nation."

Yu Hua said: "The Japanese are preparing to wait until the next batch of transport ships docks."

However, judging from the intensity of the Japanese fleet's shelling.

"The Japanese Navy now possesses 285 naval vessels, including four Aircraft Carriers, 9 battleships, and 25 cruisers."

This gave the Sichuan Army generals at the scene a big fright.

Slowly transporting infantry ashore, each transport ship could carry forty soldiers.

"Brother Guo, it is now five to six in the morning, the time of high tide."

Guo Xunqi looked at Yu Hua: "Are we really going to wait for the second batch of Japanese to come ashore?"

Yu Hua nodded heavily: "Brother Guo, listen to me, you won't go wrong."
