Chapter 344: Historical Correction

Under the cover of night, the American troops poured into the beachhead like a tide, and they were pleasantly surprised by the sudden halt of artillery fire. οΌˆοΌ‰

The Americans suffered too many casualties in this battle, and in the first two months they carried out many landing operations, but the Japanese always let them in easily.

And then...... It's hell.

The Japanese took advantage of every mountain range, every hole in the ground. They are elusive, and they would rather die than give in.

At first, the Americans took prisoners, but when several Japanese soldiers in a row became human bombers, the Yankees no longer dared to be careless.

They went straight to the slaughter, and there was not a single living person left in front of them.

Even so, the advance of the American troops on the island of Okinawa was still very slow, and they had to be careful with every bullet, and every time a gunshot rang out, they were always scared to the ground, and then the bullets were fired out as if they didn't need any money, until all obstacles in front of them were cleared.

In order to speed up the progress of the campaign, the command once again arranged this landing, with the goal of cutting directly into the rear of the enemy army, leaving them exposed to the enemy, and always hastening the collapse of the Japanese.

Now it seems that the start is good, the losses in the landing operation are not large, and the casualties of dozens of soldiers are far lower than the command estimates.

The front-line command camp was arranged on the top of a hill on the coast, and under the lights, Colonel Fei Xiaotong was arranging tactics.

In the distance, the battleship USS Missouri was still cruising there, and another aircraft carrier appeared in the group, the USS Princeton.

Because of the suicide tactics of the Japanese kamikaze commandos, the Americans were caught off guard at all, they did not expect the Japanese to die to this point, so under the meeting, the American troops suffered heavy casualties.

A large number of warships or aircraft carriers were damaged and sunk, and aircraft carriers in particular became the main targets of Japanese aircraft.

As a last resort, the United States had to strengthen its air defense, arranging more air defense forces around the aircraft carrier, and this is how the USS Princeton aircraft carrier was arranged.

It carried more than a dozen aircraft, and the Princeton became the main weapon to blockade the skies of Okinawa, and the aircraft carrier Princeton fulfilled this mission perfectly.

Colonel Fei Xiaotong looked at the fire on the ocean in the distance, the Japanese kamikaze commando went out again, and a sky-high fire broke out on the sea, it was a cruiser that was hit by a Japanese plane in the fuel depot, and the warship was finished.

Fei Xiaotong sighed, and then gave an order to the soldiers in front of him:

"This, this, and this, you three detachments must take control of this place before dawn and set up a communications base station.

The large army will depart after dawn, and our task today is to sweep these areas, and you will have six hours to lose support from the rear, and everything is up to you.

Do you understand? ”

β€œyessir!”

The voice of the answer was bold and neat, and when these figures, covered in the smell of gunsmoke, disappeared into the tent, Fei Xiaotong sighed again:

These young faces may not be able to come back, but as their commander, Fei Xiaotong has to send them to death.

With the breeze gently caressed, Zhang Binhui and the others withdrew from the US military command team and flew to the top of the mountain.

Ma Tianyuan looked at the military camp below and muttered secretly:

"Yankees, Yankees, you are fighting these Japanese to the death now, but you would never have thought that your juniors would call them brothers and sisters, and even reorganize their arms.

Your fate has been lost in vain. Kamikaze commandos, you hate it, don't you? Seventy years later, the Japanese will still use it to declare their inheritance!

Your juniors did not say anything, but we Chinese are helping you to oppose it, is it a shame?! ”

Zhang Binhui smiled and patted him on the shoulder:

"Forget it, don't complain, Americans are the biggest utilitarian beneficiaries in the world. Haven't you heard their quotes?

There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Little Japan might have done it again in the future, and he remembered it at that time. ”

Ma Tianyuan spat fiercely below:

"Grandma, we're at a loss. Helping them eliminate the Japanese artillery position, and those lurking bunkers, how many fewer people did these guys have to die? When I think about it, I feel that it's not worth it. ”

Ma Tianyuan said that he had no intention, but Mo Yingxuan listened to it intentionally, and this matter was a little strange.

So she asked in a whisper: "Did the Americans suffer a lot of casualties in this war?" ”

Ma Tianyuan nodded affirmatively:

"Of course. In this battle, the Americans had 32 ships sunk and 368 damaged, including 13 aircraft carriers alone, 10 battleships, 5 cruisers and 67 destroyers.

In addition, the Americans lost 763 carrier-based aircraft and killed 1. 30,000 people, including 4,600 in the Army, 4,900 in the Navy and 3,400 in the Marine Corps.

The wounded servicemen reached 3. 60,000, of which 1 is the Army. 810,000 people, Navy 4900 people, Marine Corps 1. 360,000 people, and another 2. 60,000 non-combat casualties.

This battle was the deadliest battle of the American army in the Pacific War, and it can be said that the Japanese on the island of Okinawa beat out their nosebleeds. ”

"That's weird", Mo Yingxuan thought for a while: "You destroyed a lot of Japanese fortifications just now, and you cleaned everything on this island.

The most important thing is that the artillery position is very hidden. If the Americans really want to take them all, they are afraid that they will lose an unknown number of people.

In this way, can your participation be regarded as changing history? ”

This question really stopped Zhang Binhui and them. This day and night, although Lingdoudou and they did not interfere, but the two of them had a lot of fun, and occasionally Zhang Binhui also made a move, and after all, it really helped the US troops below.

Isn't that going to change history?

Zhang Binhui scratched his head: "This is one of the outlying islands of Okinawa, maybe the Americans have lost a lot on its main island before?" ”

Mo Yingxuan shrugged: "Maybe, anyway, your participation must have changed something."

We have also studied the theory you mentioned, which was developed by a human sage 2.1 million years ago: time will automatically mend itself, and history will be revised.

I don't know what kind of arrangement the time will make. The good fortune of the Americans will certainly not last because of your help, and I do not believe that these American troops who rushed to the island will be able to get out of the way. ”
