回复 蒸汽装甲舰 的帖子
我承认一处炮垒对整个战局不会有帮助，但炮垒不是那么容易被航空兵或战列舰所击毁的。以下是“兄弟连“作者对Pointe du Hoc海岬炮垒攻坚战报导的第一段：
It was a nearly 100-meter-high cliff, with perpendicular sides jutting out into the Channel. It looked down on Utah Beach to the left and Omaha Beach to the right. There were six 155mm cannon in heavily reinforced concrete bunkers that were capable of hitting either beach with their big shells. On the outermost edge of the cliff, the Germans had an elaborate, well-protected outpost, where the spotters had a perfect view and could call back coordinates to the gunners at the 155s. Those guns had to be neutralized. The Allied bombardment of Pointe-du-Hoc had begun weeks before D-Day. Heavy bombers from the U.S. Eighth Air Force and British Bomber Command had repeatedly plastered the area, with a climax coming before dawn on June 6. Then the battleship Texas took up the action, sending dozens of 14-inch shells into the position. Altogether, Pointe-du-Hoc got hit by more than ten kilotons of high explosives, the equivalent of the explosive power of the atomic bomb used at Hiroshima. Texas lifted her fire at 0630, the moment the rangers were scheduled to touch down....
大意是说在犹他与奥马哈登陆海滩之间的这处海岬，其100米悬崖顶端被德佬修了一座强化混凝土炮垒，放列了六门法制155加农炮。从D日前一星期开始，英美重轰就开始空炸。由于位置的重要，艾克同时责付美军第2突击兵营在D日首先攀岩攻坚，务必成功。D日6时30分进攻前德州号BB也以主炮陆轰255发为突击兵掩护。合计海空对他丢下了等量于广岛原爆威力的炸弹，炮垒基本完好....以后的故事看过“最长的一日“的朋友都是知道的。 |
