Elbo Beach, a flat beach on Bermuda Island, although there is no pier, it is very close to Hamilton, the largest city on the island, only a few kilometers away. If German marines successfully land here, then an attack on Hamilton can be launched. After taking Hamilton, the remaining troops of the 1st Division of the German Marine Corps will be able to go ashore continuously through the port. At that time, the German army will easily sweep the entire Bermuda Island and the Bermuda Islands.

The US Marine Corps has only one regiment in the entire Bermuda Islands. Except for the 3rd Battalion, which was deployed on St. David Island and St. George Island, the rest of the troops were concentrated on Bermuda.

Elbo Beach has also become a beach that the US Marine Corps focuses on defense. On this beach, the US Marine Corps has deployed a battalion of troops.

It's just that the 2nd Battalion, 2nd Regiment, 3rd Division of the US Marine Corps stationed here suffered heavy losses during the previous heavy shelling by the German Navy. Their defense zone was like being plowed by the German artillery fire. Not only were the fortifications completely destroyed, but casualties were also very high. Of the three infantry companies, two had suffered more than half their casualties. The remaining company also lost a lot. The battalion headquarters company and the firearms company also suffered a lot of losses. Not only were a lot of equipment destroyed by the artillery fire of the German Navy, but the casualties were also very high.

"God! What is that?" A U.S. Marine Corps soldier drove a helicopter flying towards them in the sky, dumbfounded.

Although the German Army has already invested heavily in helicopter operations on the Russian battlefield. However, on the Atlantic battlefield, Germany used this weapon for the first time.

"Those new German planes? But why don't they have wings?"

"Idiot, that's a German helicopter! Open fire, shoot down their helicopter. Otherwise, we will die!" A company commander cursed loudly.

"Da da da!" Several machine guns on the ground began to fire at the helicopters in the air, trying to shoot down these helicopters.

But the first battles are armed helicopters with relatively thick armor. It is very difficult for ordinary machine guns to penetrate the vital points, and it is very difficult to shoot down these armed helicopters. Unless it is a heavy machine gun with a caliber of 12.7 mm, or an anti-aircraft gun. Otherwise, it would undoubtedly be very difficult to shoot down these planes with ordinary machine guns and rifles.

"Shhhhhh!"

A helicopter gunship opened fire, and the suspended rocket launcher began to fire rockets.

Intensive rockets fell on the US military position, covering almost the entire position. Many American soldiers were torn to pieces in the explosion.

Amphibious assault ships of the German Marine Corps, each capable of carrying up to 40 helicopters. Including 12 armed helicopters, 12 utility helicopters and 12 transport helicopters respectively. There are also four helicopters in reserve. The dock landing ship can carry up to six helicopters, which are two armed helicopters, two general-purpose helicopters and two transport helicopters.

The amphibious assault ships and dock landing ships of the German Navy took off all the armed helicopters in the first batch. A total of 16 armed helicopters are enough to slaughter the US troops on the entire beach.

Follow-up general-purpose helicopters and transport helicopters are also taking off one after another. These helicopters are equipped with heavily armed soldiers. They will cooperate with the Marine Corps on the landing craft to break through the US defense line on the island in one fell swoop.

"Sir, the position of the 3rd company has been severely attacked by the Germans. They have dispatched a large number of helicopters. The 3rd company has suffered heavy losses and is about to fail." An officer reported to the battalion commander.

"Damn it, do the Germans really want to land from us? Order the 3rd company and hold it no matter what. Let the 2nd company rush to reinforce immediately. The battalion headquarters company and the firearms company deal with the German helicopters!" Major Battalion Commander ordered.

"Da da da!"

Faced with the German helicopter attack, the U.S. military suffered heavy losses. However, they also did not give up resistance. In particular, the battalion headquarters company and the firearms company are equipped with rockets and heavy machine guns. Among them, the battalion headquarters company is equipped with 3 anti-tank guns, 4 machine guns and 8 rocket launchers. The firearms company is equipped with 6 81mm mortars, 11 heavy machine guns and 7 rocket launchers.

"Da da da!"

Two 12.7mm heavy machine guns are attacking a German helicopter. The two heavy machine guns were concealed and were not discovered. Otherwise, it would have been destroyed by German helicopters with rockets.

Dense bullets enveloped the helicopter like a torrential rain. The 12.7mm heavy machine gun bullets were so powerful that they easily damaged the helicopter.

"God! We were hit, pull up immediately and get out of here!" The helicopter pilot yelled in horror.

However, it was too late.

"Boom!"

An explosion sounded, and flames quickly enveloped the entire helicopter inside.

This is the gas tank was hit, causing a fire.

The entire helicopter fell directly to the ground like a fireball.

"Haha, we shot down the German helicopter!"

"Long live, long live!"

The American soldiers on the ground cheered.

Before, when the German helicopters massacred them, these American soldiers not only suffered heavy losses, but also their morale plummeted, almost on the verge of collapse.

Now, they actually shot down a German helicopter, which undoubtedly only cheers them.

However, they seem to be happy too early. The war has only just begun, and the U.S. military just shot down a German helicopter. It is still very early before they defeat the German army.

"Damn, go to hell, Americans!" Another gunship immediately launched an attack.

"Shhhhhh!"

The rocket roared down, quickly wrapping the two heavy machine guns of the US military inside. In the violent explosion, the two heavy machine guns were blown into parts, and the machine gunner was completely torn to pieces.

"Da da da!"

Facing the attack of the German helicopters, the U.S. troops on the ground also continued to fight back. They attacked these helicopters with heavy machine guns, light machine guns and even rifles. But the effect is very limited.

Countless American soldiers were hit and killed by German helicopters with rockets or machine guns. These German helicopters have even dominated the battlefield. The U.S. military suffered heavy losses under the attack of German helicopters and was completely targeted for massacres.

When the armed helicopters showed their skills and massacred American soldiers, the follow-up general-purpose helicopters and transport helicopters also rushed to the battlefield.
