Chapter 203, Attack on the Ryukyus
Although Japan received some news, moved the warehouses, modified the fortifications, etc., but did not expect the Allies to come so quickly, a large number of planes, rushed towards the Japanese army, and carried out various bombardments on important Japanese sites, for a time, the Japanese losses were very heavy, and the Allies took the opportunity to start attacking.

Although the Japanese army, which suffered heavy losses, was able to hold off the onslaught of the Allied forces for a while, it could not withstand their continuous onslaught at all.
The collapse of the defensive line means retreating and losing resource points.
Japan is embattled, really embattled, the US army in the south is about to Jigong itself, Southeast Asia in the southeast is retreating step by step, Alaska in the northeast is forced to withdraw, Siberia in the northwest is about to be driven back to the stick, the defeat is a foregone conclusion, but the Japanese army is still dragging, they are still gambling, and they have gone to Lu Qiang to get credit, but they were frightened by this condition, and they actually wanted to cut their Osumi Islands and Tugara Islands, how could they agree, and they were also very angry Lu Qiang's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, In the future, will you still want Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island.
The conversation failed, and Japan failed to get anything on credit, so it walked away in disgrace.
After the Japanese representative left, Lu Qiang sneered, didn't he just want to pull him into the water, and even threatened him to release the news of Lu Qiang's supplies and equipment to them, which was really frightened when he Lu Qiang was scared.
Japan had no gain, and they were unwilling, so the news was naturally released, and their resources came from the Xiling Empire.
The Allies were well aware of this news, especially the United States, which often saw Xiling's cargo ship running towards Japan, although they knew it, but they were helpless, and warned them not to stop at all, no matter what, the other party just said: Have I joined the Allies?
Indeed, the Xiling Empire did not join the Allies at all, nor did it sign any covenants, and the Allies had no reason to care about him, as for the threat, hehe, if he was forced to the Axis powers, then the Macau Allies would be finished, so the Allies also turned a blind eye to this, but they didn't expect to be shaken out by Japan.
The people were in an uproar, and they were very puzzled by the Xiling Empire's funding of Japan like this, but the high-level leaders of the Allied countries were a little excited, since Japan had exposed the news, it was estimated that they had fallen out.
Soon, the official of the Xiling Empire spoke, and they were very angry at Japan's unwarranted slander and wanted to punish them severely.
As for the means of punishment, it is nothing more than the direct use of troops, of course, Lu Qiang has a better one, which can show the good things in the house, of course, it is none other than the mushroom bomb, he is waiting for the long-range intercontinental missile to come out, carrying a nuclear warhead to Japan, so that the world can see his long-range nuclear strike capability, deterrence is just now.
Then, the Xiling Empire declared war on Japan, and the Japanese high-level body vomited blood, and originally wanted to threaten it, but the other party did it directly, and got on the plane and artillery without saying a word.
Say what you say, fight as you say, and make a lot of money in Japan, now it's time to turn your face and not recognize people.
The First Fleet, which has been serving as a training for new recruits, has set off in a mighty way, and the whole fleet is excited not to want it, and the Second and Third Fleets have something to do every day on the European side, and they are at home with their children, and they have long been impatient, and their bones are rusty.
The fleet departed, and the first mission was the Ryukyu Islands, which are now theirs.
The landing ship then carried the fighters and prepared to land on the beach, taking the Ryukyus before the arrival of the American troops.
At the end of World War II, Japan massacred about 260,000 people in the Ryukyus in order to stop the U.S. military, second only to the Nanjing Massacre. Speaking of which, at this time, Ryukyu still had some sense of belonging to China.
Therefore, Lu Qiang wanted to return the Ryukyus to its original owners, and also avoid killing the inhabitants of the Ryukyus after the U.S. troops landed.
When the First Fleet sailed for the Ryukyus, the Japanese were a little panicked and immediately organized a defense.
The navy did not immediately start the attack, but had to wait for the landing force to come up, and they covered the landing force and destroyed the Japanese defensive positions.
The U.S. military was also very interested to see that the First Fleet of the Hiling Empire had actually preempted them and began to attack the Ryukyus, and they were very curious to know what the Chilling Empire, which was known as the strongest army, was like.
In late December of '43, five ducks stopped on the outskirts of the Ryukyu Islands, and planes on three aircraft carriers were ready to move.
The large 403mm pipe on the duck slide was raised, aiming at the Japanese position from a distance.
"Boom, boom~~" The ** on each duck slipped sounded continuously, the huge cannon roared, and the huge warhead smashed towards the Japanese position.
Its majesty is earth-shattering, and the five duck slippery rows are cannon battles, which is unprecedented, and you must know that the U.S. military has only built a total of three Iowa-class battleships.
The explosion of gunpowder was deafening, and violent explosions came and went one after another on the Japanese position, blowing up pillboxes, flying artillery, scattered parts, not a single intact corpse, and the Japanese coastal defense position was in shambles.
However, even in such a fierce shelling, there are still some permanent fortifications that have been preserved in this condition, such concrete fortifications built four or five meters thick, even under the shelling of 45 403mm large-caliber guns.
But the Japanese soldiers inside were not happy, and the shock caused by the explosion shocked a large number of Japanese soldiers hiding in the fortifications in the bunkers to death and deafness.
Looking at the broken leaves covered by such fierce artillery fire, they would not think that the Japanese army could survive, but for the sake of security, after the duck slip shelling, the F8F on the No. 3 aircraft carrier took off, and the load was not an ordinary bomb, but a cloud burst bomb known as a small mushroom bomb, and then cleaned up a wave of the Japanese army, and then let the infantry land, they believed that under the cloud burst bomb, there should be no Japanese army to survive, and even Xiaoqiang could be roasted to death, not to mention them.
F8F came to the Japanese position, did not encounter any resistance, the Japanese native planes will not come to the Ryukyus, which has been abandoned by them, and now the Ryukyus have been used as a front line for Japan to block the American army, delaying time and making them prepare more locally.
The F8F, which did not encounter any air defense, dropped the cloudburst bomb very smoothly.
The U.S. troops, who were watching not far away, saw the shocking shelling of the five duck slips, but before they could react, they saw another wave of explosions that shocked them even more.
A large number of cloudburst bombs exploded on the Japanese position, raising small mushroom clouds, and the explosion sound was very low, not as deafening as ordinary bombs, after all, cloudburst bombs mainly burned, not exploded.
Although the American GIs didn't hear much of the explosion, they would know that this thing was not simple when they looked at the mushroom clouds rising over the Japanese positions. (To be continued.) )
