Chapter 205, it's better to have a cloud burst bomb

The rapid loss of the beachhead caught the Japanese army off guard, and he thought that he could hold out for a while, but he didn't expect it to be gone in less than an hour, and the beachhead fell into his hands. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The current Ryukyu Japanese army had no choice but to attack, hoping to slow down the pace of the other side and speed up the retreat of the main force, and they could not hold the Ryukyu.

The counter-offensive of the Japanese army made the soldiers a little puzzled, at this time, it was not good to dig a good position and wait for them to attack, and they actually did what kind of counter-attack, there must be a demon when things went wrong, and the Japanese army must be making some moths.

The news was reported, and soon there was a clear message that the Japanese were preventing the retreat, and these Japanese troops were using the method of delaying their footsteps.

I see, since this is the case, it is clear, they don't have to worry about what conspiracy the Japanese army is doing, and they will directly attack the Japanese army.

The Japanese army withdrew its troops, and it was inevitable to go to sea, but the fleet did not intercept it, and let them withdraw, anyway, Lu Qiang's purpose was only to take the Ryukyu Islands, and it would not be a big deal if the unnecessary war could not be fought, although even if it was fought, it would not be a big deal.

If the Japanese army is allowed to withdraw its troops, there will be fewer Japanese troops on the Ryukyus, because the Japanese army sees the hope of being able to survive, so naturally there is no need to die, which is the same as the reason for the siege of Sanqueyi.

Therefore, the Japanese blocking force did not fight desperately, but fought and retreated, which brought the advantage that the loss of troops landing on the island would be less.

However, the attacking troops were wrong, and it was not that the Japanese army fought and retreated in order to retreat, but that it was delayed for the rear defense troops to do fortifications, and the entire Naha became a Japanese fortification.

"If I knew that I would have landed directly from Naha, it would have saved me such trouble." Receiving the news from the front, the General Staff Officer looked at it and said lightly.

"That's going to have more casualties, and you can't blast bombs into Naha! If it is thrown down, it is estimated that the entire Naha, both military and civilian, will be killed. ”

"Isn't that bad? They're all Japanese anyway! ”

"I can't say that, before Guangxu, Ryukyu was still our China, and the people above were Chinese, but they were occupied by Japan, just like Taiwan, but the residents of Ryukyu were about to be exterminated by Japan."

"So what to do? Street fighting? ”

"Let's not fight Naha for the time being, let's take all the islands first, and put Naha last! Let them live a few more days. ”

"yes, I understand!"

Since Naha will not be attacked for the time being, the battle plan must be revised and the island capture operation will begin.

On several relatively large islands, Japanese troops were stationed, and they all dug fortifications, semi-underground fortifications, caves, etc.

If such a fortification is allowed to be fought by an ordinary army, it will never be able to be taken without heavy casualties, and it may not even be able to be taken after the battle is finished, but for Xiling, it is not a big deal, a wave of cloud bursts of bombs will go down, and the people on the Japanese position will almost die, and the infantry will go up to clear the field.

On some of the surrounding islands, there were only Japanese troops, and the local residents were either killed by the Japanese army or driven to Naha for unified management.

Okinawa is relatively large, and there are cliffs on the island, so it is impossible to dispatch a large-scale army, and the mechanized army cannot go up, and then there is the so-called bloody hacksaw ridge.

However, this is not a matter for Xiling, the reason why the US troops are difficult to attack is because they do not have suitable weapons, and for Xiling, no matter how complicated the fortifications dug by the Japanese army, it is just a matter of throwing a few more cloudburst bombs.

The No. 3 aircraft carrier F8F took off, the helicopter of the No. 2 aircraft carrier was ready to fight with the infantry, and the Nimitz of No. 1 was still standing still, although it was already equipped with F14, but there were only a few of them, and they had not yet formed combat effectiveness.

And this has another meaning, this Nimitz was originally American, and now it is in the hands of Lu Qiang.

The United States was really shocked to see Nimitz, who was huge and covered in steel, and someone even took a picture of Nimitz's appearance and took it back for analysis.

After showing off in front of the United States, as the No. 1 aircraft carrier, she was protected, surrounded by several frigates, air defense and anti-submarine destroyers on the periphery, and submarines under the water, which can be described as a lot of protection.

The F8F that took off flew briskly over Okinawa Island, and from the air, the Japanese positions on the ground were clearly visible, all the roads were full of trenches, and there were pillboxes every 100 meters, which seemed to be very well defended.

No matter how strict the Japanese army's fortifications were and how well they dug them, they were all scum under the cloud burst bomb, and the title of small mushroom bomb was not for nothing.

"Dada~"

Suddenly, some anti-aircraft machine guns on the ground opened fire into the sky, and 20mm bullets flew in the sky.

The sudden anti-aircraft machine guns really scared them, but fortunately, the Japanese army did not have many anti-aircraft machine guns, only a dozen, and the threat to the F8F was not great.

After finding a suitable position in the f8F, which was churning in the air, it dropped the bomb, and the cloudburst bomb fell off the hook and fell towards the Japanese position, and some people even deliberately threw it at the Japanese air defense position.

A dull explosion sounded, and I don't know how many more Japanese soldiers became the ghosts of the bullets.

However, they suddenly discovered the fact that the defenders of the beachhead on Okinawa Island could not drop bombs, and Okinawa was full of Japanese positions.

One wave is not enough, so let's have another wave, F8F went around in circles and returned to the aircraft carrier to re-hang the bomb.

However, when I was waiting for me when I landed, there was an accident, a plane ploughed the ground, the nose and the deck were in close contact, causing an accident in an instant, the cause of the accident was very simple, the wing of the plane was hit by the Japanese anti-aircraft machine gun a few holes, but the pilot did not feel anything, and landed normally when landing, but there was a problem, because the wing was injured, did not grasp the direction, the fuselage turned sideways, resulting in one wing being broken, the nose hit the deck, fortunately the pilot was fine.

When a propeller plane lands, there are many problems, because the fuselage is light, and it is easy to have accidents such as rollover.

After such an accident, this aircraft carrier cannot take off and land for the time being, and it has to wait for the deck to be cleared, but these planes in the sky can't help but land, so forget about Nimitz, and now Nimitz is a spare aircraft carrier to receive these F8F.

On Okinawa, the area where the cloudburst bomb was burned was pitch black, in stark contrast to the place where the cloudburst bomb was not.

Because of the air raid, the Japanese troops who were hiding crawled out of the hole and prepared to fight, they thought that the other side was about to start attacking, but the Japanese army found that no one came out of the bombed place, and they didn't know what was going on, so the Japanese commander hurriedly sent someone to take a look.

This is a terrible look, and the Japanese soldier who sent this one almost peed his pants. (To be continued.) )
