Why would Sasha, who was always observing the movements on the sea with a binoculars in his hand, need someone to remind him?

Sweat dripped down his temples, and his lips moved: "With such strong destructive power, it also has such defensive performance..."

"Such a warship..."

His throat seemed to be choked by a piece of iron and he couldn't utter the second half of the sentence.

After finally waiting for the enemy ships to approach under the bombardment, Sasha hoped that the gunners could inflict some damage on the enemy ships as they advanced. However, what he saw now was that the enemy ships were approaching the coast in broad daylight, and the effect of their own shells was too small.

Even though some shells hit the target, it was far from enough. To sink their warships, at least hundreds of shells would be needed. But under such terrifying fire suppression, could the gunners accurately fire hundreds of shells at an enemy ship?

Taking the hit rate into account, how long would it take to fire so many shells?

And at this moment, there are hundreds of enemy ships rushing over!

Will they give this shooting time?

Sasha gasped for breath, sweat dripping down his chin, and he said with difficulty:

"There's nothing we can do... We can't stop them from landing..."

"They will be landing soon..."

"But we still have one last line of defense. After they land, we must kill them on the beach."

Having said this, he clenched his teeth and roared:

"Aim all your shells at the beach! As soon as they land, fire all your shells at them!"

"The infantry formation needs to build a defense line! We must strangle them on the beach and never let them break through the defense line!"

-

"Prepare to land!"

"There is no shelter for us to hide from the shells after we go down, and we need to launch an attack on those bunkers immediately and occupy their fortifications as quickly as possible!"

"be quick!!!"

In the cabins of the Yan State warships that had already arrived at the coast, commands were issued one after another in each warship. As the anchors were dropped and the warships came to a steady stop, the infantry vanguards who had been ready swarmed out.

The battleships that provided them with long-range fire support had also advanced a long way, which allowed them to fire their shells farther and pushed the fire coverage area much further into the island. However, the enemy fortifications along the coast were still intact, and these fortifications could only be fought over by the infantry.

As soon as the Yan soldiers stepped onto the land, artillery shells were fired from all directions. It was the enemy's last means of blocking.

The Yan soldiers had already prepared themselves mentally. They did not march in a line, but dispersed immediately after stepping on the land and rushed up from several directions.

Without shields, cover or any other means of defense, the Yan soldiers could only rely on the guns in their hands.

"Quick! Charge forward!!"

"Seize those bunkers!"

Amid shouts, they stretched out their legs and ran rapidly.

The bunkers on the high ground were launching artillery fire downwards, but under this scattered charge, their artillery fire was difficult to be effective, so the Goths responded immediately. The infantry formed several horizontal rows, built a defense line and began shooting.

These Gothic infantrymen who were firing in a line helped the Yan State warships anchored on the coast find their target, and they aimed their artillery at the infantry defense lines.

"Shoot! Shoot!"

The gunners roared and fired shell after shell, while the soldiers operating the light machine guns aimed more accurately at crowded areas and fired continuously.

The Gothic infantrymen who were firing in horizontal rows had now become targets. Although some rows were hiding behind cover, as long as there was no cover above their heads, the explosive bombs would work!

Just like this moment!

Explosive bombs fell on the defense lines one after another. The intensive bombardment caused the defense lines to collapse in almost an instant. The Goths who had just emerged from the bunkers suffered heavy casualties.

Although there were still infantrymen in the bunker firing with guns, the Yan army's infantrymen who were running wildly had already completely dispersed. Unable to organize a formation and fire in unison, their bullets with a pitifully low hit rate could not stop the Yan army's attack at all.

In just two quarters of an hour, the Yan soldiers had already begun to merge into the group of bunkers to attack, and the defenders in the bunkers were engaged in a tug-of-war with them in a panic.

All Goths understood that these fortifications must not be lost. If they were lost, the consequences would be catastrophic.

When the Yan Kingdom infantry launched an attack on the bunker, artillery pieces were gradually transported down from the warships. The reason why these artillery pieces were transported down a little later was to prevent them from becoming the primary target in the most violent counterattack of the Golts at the beginning of the landing.

Now is the best time to transport the artillery when they are in chaos. These artillery will play a vital role in the subsequent advancement.

The offensive and defensive battle in the bunker was fierce, and Sasha, who was supposed to be on the tower to overview the battle situation, could no longer stay there with peace of mind.

He came to the rear and began to personally command the battle on land.

During the previous bombing, Sasha had already determined that the enemy would definitely land on the coast this time, so he had already deployed all the artillery brigades on the island to the front line early on.

This was by no means a desperate tactic, but he knew that once the coastline was lost, it would be difficult to contain the enemy once they spread to the island.

Ever since he saw the enemy soldiers charging in a skirmish line, Sasha knew that he had done the right thing. These enemies had far more sophisticated weapons than his side, so they could fight in this way. If he could not stop them here, he would surely lose everything later.

He made every correct arrangement, but even so, the battle situation was still heading towards a disadvantage.

"Sir! Their bombardment is too intense!"

"Two artillery brigades have been defeated. It is difficult for our shells to form an impact on them..." A soldier was reporting to Sasha, but Sasha interrupted with a sullen face:

"I've heard enough bad news!"

"No matter what casualties we are suffering, we must withstand their attacks!"

"You can't capture this island without stepping over our dead bodies!"
