Chapter 854 Officially Landing on the Air Defense Position
"Also, the fighter formations on the four aircraft carriers must immediately enter a level one combat readiness state and be ready to take off and fight at any time." Liu Chengxu turned his gaze to the aviation commander and spoke firmly and forcefully, "We must ensure that we have sufficient counterattack force as soon as the enemy launches an air strike."
"Understood, Commander!" The aviation commander immediately conveyed the urgent order to the flight decks of the aircraft carriers through the internal communication system. Soon, the fighter planes on the aircraft carriers slid off the runway one after another and took off into the air, like eagles spreading their wings and ready to fight, ready to meet the upcoming air battle.
On the sea level, fourteen huge troop transport ships were moored side by side, their hulls swaying slightly with the gentle waves, and their hatches slowly opened with a roar.
"Attention all units, the pontoon bridge construction operation has officially begun!" Wang Ting, commander of the 312th Air Defense Division, stood on the deck of the command ship, holding a walkie-talkie, and his voice spread to every ship through radio waves.
His eyes were sharp, staring at the distant coastline, which was the other side of victory and also the starting point of the test.
"Engineer Company, immediately disembark in groups according to the predetermined plan, and ensure that every operation is accurate and correct!" Wang Ting continued to issue orders.
On the other end of the intercom, Li Hao, the engineer company commander, responded quickly: "Understood, commander! The engineer company is ready to go and will ensure the completion of the mission!"
As the order was issued, engineers on the troop transport ships poured out like a tide. Dressed in camouflage uniforms and carrying various equipment, they quickly and orderly boarded the speedboats and small landing craft that had been prepared long ago and headed for the designated sea area.
On the sea, speedboats shuttled back and forth, creating layers of waves. They were like nimble fish, shuttling between the waves.
"All teams, please note that upon arrival at the designated location, immediately deploy the pontoon components and make sure to keep communications open and cooperate with each other!" Wang Ting emphasized again.
In a tense yet orderly atmosphere, the engineers began to build the pontoon bridge.
They used an advanced floating bridge system to quickly assemble huge pontoons and connecting devices to form a solid channel that reached the shore.
At the same time, the logistics support troops are also working intensively to ensure that all supplies can pass through the pontoon bridge smoothly to support the front-line combat operations.
"Report to the division commander, the middle section of the pontoon bridge has been stably connected and is undergoing final debugging!" Li Hao's voice came again, with a hint of imperceptible fatigue but more of the joy of success.
"Very good, continue to strengthen monitoring to ensure the safety and stability of the pontoon bridge. Chariots, tanks and other heavy units prepare to land!" Wang Ting gave the order decisively. As the order was issued, landing ships loaded with heavy equipment slowly approached the pontoon bridge, ready to send a torrent of steel to the battlefield to meet the glory and challenge that belonged to them.
Wang Ting stood on the bridge of the command ship, holding a telescope, scanning the sea and the distant coastline with a sharp gaze, and issued a key order via radio:
"Air Defense Command, order the anti-aircraft tracked vehicle formation to start immediately and pass through the pontoon bridge as the vanguard to ensure air superiority in the initial stage of the landing. At the same time, notify the 377th Regiment to prepare assault boats, implement flank landings, quickly establish anti-aircraft positions, and cover the main force."
On the other end of the intercom, air defense commander Zhao Lei responded quickly: "Received, division commander! The air defense tracked vehicle formation is ready to go immediately. The 377th Regiment is also ready for assault boat landing to ensure the completion of the mission."
As the order was delivered, the sea became busy again. The anti-aircraft tracked vehicles roared their engines and slowly drove towards the pontoon. They were heavy and equipped with advanced anti-aircraft weapon systems, and were an important force to ensure the safety of the landing troops.
The drivers kept their eyes fixed ahead and drove the vehicles carefully to ensure a smooth passage across the floating bridge.
At the same time, the soldiers of the 377th Regiment quickly boarded the assault boat. Towed by the speedboat, the assault boat shot through the sea like an arrow and headed straight for the flank landing point.
"377th Regiment, pay attention to the terrain of the landing point, quickly occupy advantageous positions, and establish air defense positions. Form a cross-fire network with the anti-aircraft tracked vehicle formation to ensure there is no air threat." Wang Ting emphasized again, and his voice was clearly transmitted to the ears of every soldier through radio waves.
Under Wang Ting's precise command, all tasks were carried out in an orderly manner. The anti-aircraft tracked vehicle formation successfully passed the pontoon bridge and quickly deployed to form a solid air defense barrier.
The 377th Regiment also landed successfully, using the mobility of the assault boats to quickly occupy several key positions and establish effective air defense positions. The entire landing operation, under the careful planning and command of Wang Ting, demonstrated a high degree of professionalism and coordination.
An hour later, as the last rays of morning glow faded from the horizon, everything on the sea seemed to become clearer and more urgent.
Ting stood in the communications room of the command ship, staring at the radar screen, picked up the encrypted communicator, and calmly reported to the headquarters:
"Commander, this is Wang Ting, the commander of the 312th Air Defense Division. I'm reporting to you that, after the joint efforts of all the soldiers, our division has successfully completed the landing mission and established a solid air defense position in the designated area. The air defense tracked vehicle formation has been fully deployed, and the 377th Regiment has also occupied a key position, effectively covering the airspace security of the landing area. At present, we have acquired preliminary defense capabilities, providing solid protection for the subsequent landing of large forces."
Commander Liu Chengxu's voice came quickly from the other end of the communicator: "Wang Ting, well done! Your actions were quick and efficient, and you won us precious time. Now, I order you to immediately coordinate the follow-up large forces to carry out an emergency landing, and ensure that the landing process is safe and orderly. At the same time, you must pay close attention to the enemy's dynamics, especially the air threat, and do not slack off in the slightest."
"Yes, Commander!" Wang Ting responded quickly, then turned to the combat staff beside him and issued a series of instructions: "Immediately notify the follow-up landing troops to accelerate the assembly to the landing point according to the predetermined plan and prepare for an emergency landing. At the same time, notify the engineering troops to immediately start building a temporary radar station to ensure that we can monitor the airspace in real time and detect and respond to any air threats in a timely manner."
The operations staff quickly recorded and conveyed the order, and the entire command ship became busy again. The signalmen were busy operating the equipment to ensure that every instruction could be accurately transmitted to the front line.
Wang Ting continued to stare at the battlefield situation map, constantly analyzing the changes in the situation of both sides, and making careful preparations for the next battle.
"Report to the division commander, the construction of the radar station has started and is expected to be put into use within half an hour." An engineer commander reported via radio.
"Very good, keep up the efficient work." Wang Ting nodded to show his satisfaction, and at the same time reminded, "All units, pay attention, be vigilant, and be ready to respond to emergencies at any time. Our goal is not only to land successfully, but also to gain a firm foothold on this land and lay a solid foundation for the final victory."
As Wang Ting's orders continued to be issued, the soldiers of the 312th Air Defense Division once again engaged in intense and orderly work, making final preparations for the upcoming large-scale landing and subsequent battles.
