Chapter 883: All-Out Attack

Although the headquarters of the two C divisions possessed a certain number of anti-aircraft weapons, it was inevitable that there would be some fancies if they wanted to shoot down an all-metal frame aircraft in Australasia.

After some attempts, the island army finally gave up the idea of using anti-aircraft weapons to shoot down the Australasian plane, and chose to completely hide its headquarters.

But the problem is that now that the command has been exposed, it has become difficult to hide it again.

In order to deal a fatal blow to the island army, the Australasian Air Force adopted the most arrogant tactic, that is, carpet bombing.

The good news is that most of these fighters and bombers take off from aircraft carriers, and naturally they can also get ammunition supplies from aircraft carriers.

Although there are also restrictions on the ammunition of the aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier, it is still no problem to support the bombing.

After more than an hour of replenishment, the Australasian Air Force carpet bombed the area around the headquarters of the two C Divisions.

I don't care if it will bomb the civilians of the island country, for the Australasian Air Force, there is only one task at this time, that is, to destroy the command headquarters of the army of the island country, so that their already low combat effectiveness of the C Division has no leader and can only sit and wait to die.

The bombing was still very successful. The carpet bombing succeeded in destroying the command of two divisions and killing the commander of the division near the port, the island three dogs, head-on.

Although the Australasian Air Force did not know who was killed by the bombing, it still had a great effect on destroying the command of the two divisions.

It's different from the previous offense. The previous landing battles were clearly fought in a closed manner, and Australasia was more aimed at training troops than quickly attacking the Ryukyu Islands.

Sure enough, about ten minutes later, a new round of landings of Philippine and Kalimantan troops was launched.

But the problem is that because their own air force has been wiped out by Australasia in advance, this leads to them having no means of countering when facing the attack of the Australasian air force.

The purpose of these navies is naturally to use powerful shipborne artillery to let the people of the island countries feel the baptism of artillery fire.

It is precisely because of the rights of the gendarmerie of the island country that these soldiers are still very afraid of the gendarmerie. The gendarmerie was behind them, turning these soldiers into a state where they were not human inside and out, and they would die both forward and backward.

This also means that they only need to hold out for more than three hours to be able to wait for the support of another group of more than 6,000 soldiers.

Charging at the enemy's defensive positions while being wary of the threat posed by the planes in the sky made the Division C. exhausted.

If they don't rush forward, the gendarmerie within the army of the island nation is not a joke. Although the gendarmerie were small in number, they did have the right to supervise the battle on the battlefield.

But after this paratrooper dispatch, it was obvious that the Australasian side wanted to attack the Ryukyu Islands with all its might.

Australasia doesn't care about the chaos of the island's military.

For those soldiers of this division, it was a double torture. Rushing forward, the enemy's fire will break itself to pieces, and the flesh and blood of their comrades will be blurred, making them tremble.

The air force once again launched an air attack on this division, successfully disrupting the order of the entire division and regiment, and even making some soldiers dare not charge the enemy, and the entire division and regiment had a tendency to collapse.

The islanders are indeed helpless. The Australasian Air Force poses a great threat to them, even a mortal one.

At this time, nearly three hours had passed before the attack, and the transport plane formation should have almost arrived in the northern part of the Philippines.

Although there are infantry brigades on top of the infantry wings, each brigade has two infantry wings with a total strength of tens of thousands of people, and it is still very difficult to quickly issue orders for the battle plans of tens of thousands of people.

In the darkness, countless soldiers have waged a fierce and brutal war, the loser will fall into the abyss forever, and the winner will face another fateful gamble.

What's more, Australasia also never thought of relying only on its own paratrooper units. After the paratroopers gradually take control of the situation, a new round of landing battles will also be launched, leaving the island troops exhausted.

At this time, it was more than three o'clock in the morning, and there were still more than two hours before dawn.

In addition to the use of the air force and army, in the navy, Australasia also dispatched 6 aircraft carriers, 2 battleships, and 3 battle cruisers as the main warships.

If any of the soldiers of the island nation stagnates or even escapes, the gendarmerie has the right to execute them on the spot.

Without the timely command of the two divisional command departments, the various infantry wings of the division and regiment suddenly became chaotic.

Because it was the reason for the general attack, the navy was not stingy, and a large amount of artillery fire was inclined down towards the garrison of the island army, like a particularly heavy rainstorm.

Bang!

Bang bang bang!

The loud bangs were like thunder, and the flames of the explosion after touching the land and facilities were like the lightning of judgment.

No one underestimates the power of shipboard artillery, even the guns of battleships that were outdated 20 years ago.

You must know that the caliber of the shipborne main guns of that era was also extremely exaggerated more than 300 mm.

Such artillery is used to bombard the land army, which is simply like a cannon hitting mosquitoes, which can only be said to be devastating.

Even the defensive positions, artillery positions, etc., built by the army of the island country based on the terrain, are as fragile as tofu in the face of the bombardment of such large-caliber artillery.

What's worse is that the Ryukyu Islands are wide and vast, and basically the entire archipelago is within the bombing range of the navy.

For the army of the island nation stationed in the Ryukyu Islands, from this moment on, it will be their most fatal and painful moment.

Perhaps the two island nation divisions stationed around the city and port should rejoice. Because the Australasian army had already fought them in close proximity, the navy's bombing list did not include their location.

Otherwise, what the ship's artillery destroyed was not their faith, but their spirit of sticking to the battlefield.

When the spirit is destroyed, that is, when they go from normal people to crazy and insane.

Such examples are not uncommon. Because the battlefield was so cruel, many recruits who were originally just ordinary peasants, even if they were lucky enough to survive the battlefield, would suffer from post-war syndrome and other battlefield-related diseases.

The lighter ones are nervous, inattentive and have trouble falling asleep in their own lives, and the heavier ones can even become crazy people and be tormented by the brutal scenes of the battlefield day and night.

It is clear that there is a limit to the psychological endurance of ordinary people. Even trained soldiers are psychologically strong when they are suddenly confronted with a more brutal scene.

Of course, in areas bombarded by shipborne artillery, it is very likely that there will be a broken leg and a broken arm.

With a large-scale artillery of this caliber, it is not a problem to blow up and sink a battleship that is all steel armor, let alone ordinary people who are just flesh and blood.

Generally bombarded by this kind of shipborne artillery, apart from a small number of fragments of clothing, there is basically nothing left.

"Rush! The shogun said that if you attack Naha today, everyone will have fresh steak to eat! The first infantry formation to step into Naha is rewarded for all! Commanders at all levels in the Philippines and Kalimantan shouted frantically.

For these Filipinos and Kalimantans, there are only two things that appeal to them the most, one is the delicious food, and the other is the abundant reward.

Food can be fed, and rewards can be taken home to families to improve their lives.

After all, the economies of the Philippines and Kalimantan at this time were not very good, and the living environment of Filipinos and Kalimantans was naturally not very good.

Joining the Australasian army has enough meat to eat and a better life for their families, which is why they are willing to work for Australasia.

Of course, Australasia's control of all levels of their government was one of the reasons why they had to join the Australasian army.

Especially in the more educated Philippines, the war has been propagated as a life-and-death war between the island nation and the Philippines.

Because Australasia has controlled public opinion in the Philippines, Philippine media reports have described the importance of this war for the Philippines, and highlighted what kind of cruel country the island nation is.

In other words, for these Filipinos, they are not fighting for Australasia, but for defending their country.

What's more, there are tangible benefits to their participation in this war. Once they have made a contribution, their children will have the opportunity to study in Australasia and become masters in the Philippines.

Over the years, Australasia's grip on the Philippines has become tight.

Every year, a small number of Filipinos who successfully graduate from Australasia will definitely be a superior person in terms of status and status as long as they return to the Philippines.

It is precisely this huge improvement in identity and status that makes many Filipinos look forward to studying in Australasia, and even their lifelong dream.

Unfortunately, if you want to study in Australasia, it is very difficult.

In addition to the small number of places open to high-level Philippine officials in Australasia every year, ordinary Filipinos who want to study in Australasia either have to bear a lot of expenses or have talents that far surpass others, that is, geniuses.

This also makes Australasian study abroad opportunities very popular in the Philippines, even those who are already Filipinos generally want to study in Australasia.

Because in Australasia, they have access to the best academic environment and teaching resources in the whole of Oceania and Asia, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are world-class and top-notch.

With the exception of a handful of older, better-known universities in Europe, Australasian universities are arguably not inferior to any other school.

For Arthur, it would be great if he could gain the loyalty of the Philippine military by paying only a certain number of study places.

The study abroad places are not a big cost for Arthur, after all, those wealthy Filipino businessmen also provide a large amount of money for universities in Australasia every year.

And the international students cultivated by these study abroad places, with better ability, will also be fought by Australasia to stay in the mainland.

In other words, not only will such an act not become a financial burden for Australasia, but it will also attract more people to Australasia, which is basically a safe profit.
