    "Your Excellency General! The naval reinforcement fleet has arrived! Disguise is in progress!"

    "Very good! When the US troops land, as long as one warship finds the opportunity to open fire, it can destroy fifty landing craft in a few minutes, which means that a thousand US soldiers will become corpses!"

    ¡°Be flexible! All commanders¡¯ minds must be flexible! They must not be rigid!¡±

    Fang Tianlang crossed his hands on his chest and asked the Japanese army to arrange the warships along the coast and hide behind the islands, which could maximize their firepower and become extremely valuable collections at the last moment.

    Rather than letting the battleship be blown into scrap metal on the seabed by US warplanes using aviation ammunition, it would be more meaningful to serve as a fort.

    " If the Japanese army wants to defeat the strong with the weak, every weapon and every ammunition must be effective. A warship that suddenly opens up to full firepower is undoubtedly an unimaginable nightmare for the landing troops.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Battleships are scattered throughout Okinawa.

    Thousands of soldiers used canvas and branches to camouflage the warships to deceive U.S. aerial reconnaissance.

    U.S. military commanders would never imagine that large warships would hide behind small islands to serve as fixed firepower points. This is not the style of the Japanese Navy at all.

    For a long time, there have been huge conflicts between the Japanese, Japanese, Navy, and Army, and they simply cannot cooperate so closely.

    The Japanese navy always feels that it is superior to the army. It is difficult for the huge battleship to become an accessory of the small army.

    Transport ships and transport aircraft continue to enter Okinawa.

    Ships and aircraft coming from the mainland theater mainly transport soldiers, while those coming from the mainland mainly transport weapons and ammunition. The Japanese army has a huge stockpile of weapons and ammunition on the mainland to support Okinawa without reservation.

    ¡°Twenty days later, Okinawa¡¯s ammunition reserves will be at least ten times greater than those in historical Okinawa, enough to last for a year.

    ¡°What¡¯s in here?!¡±

    "Report to your Excellency, General! These are 150mm artillery shells! Six hundred in total!"

    "Be careful! Be careful! These are our treasures! Please! Only these shells can hit twenty-five kilometers away. This is our decisive weapon!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Okinawa is accelerating its stockpile of weapons, ammunition and various supplies.

    In the Taiwan theater more than a thousand kilometers away, the U.S. fleet launched a landing operation after a day of firepower preparation and defeated the defenders' interception at the beachhead area within 12 hours.

    The battle quickly moved from the beach to the deep areas and then turned into a less intense encirclement and suppression operation.

    Most of the soldiers in the garrison could only resort to suicide attacks as they watched the tanks charging towards them, but none of them had much effect.

    Taiwan¡¯s defenders had all their heavy artillery and almost 90% of their ammunition withdrawn. They were able to hold on for three days against hundreds of armored fighting vehicles, which was their limit.

    The smoke is spreading and corpses are everywhere.

    The U.S. military suffered heavy losses on Iwo Jima, but after half a month, they easily captured Taiwan and regained some confidence and fighting spirit.

    From now on, the Japanese army has no way to transport various strategic materials from the Nanyang region back to the mainland. The gradually depleted Japanese islands cannot withstand the full force of the North American continent.

    The main battle in the Taiwan Theater was completed in two days.

    The defenders of Okinawa have no response to the battle reports coming from Taiwan.

    Losing Taiwan and gaining ten days is a good exchange. Anyway, there may be a chance to regain it in the future.

    In the past two days, a total of 6,700 soldiers from the 126th Division of the Kwantung Army entered the Okinawa theater, and more than 540 tons of ammunition entered ammunition storage centers across the island.

    A large amount of ammunition is continuously delivered every day, which increases the confidence of the Okinawa defenders day by day. Originally, only a small amount of ammunition could last more than two months of fighting, let alone this moment when the amount of ammunition is increasing sharply.

    "Excellent! This is the most ideal state!"

    "Phobia of fire! Add at least fifty artillery pieces every day! Only in this way can I overcome my fear! Haha!"

    Fang Tianlang watched a transport ship slowly approach the dock, and the sea water rippled slightly.

    A total of twelve Type 94 75mm mountain guns, 200 artillery soldiers, and 4,000 artillery shells will be dispersed and hidden throughout the island in two hours.

    As a commander, the happiest thing before a war is to see reinforcements and various ammunition in place. One more shell may affect the outcome of a battle at a critical moment.

    " will??Your Excellency!  A telegram from the military!  The newly developed anti-tank rockets will be shipped in two days, with the first batch totaling 1,200 70mm rockets and 800 90mm rockets.  "

    "Let General Ushijima Mitsuru call back and increase the number! We have a thousand launchers, and each launcher must prepare at least fifty rockets, fifty thousand rockets. As long as there are so many rockets, the US tanks can be  Pieces become scrap metal.¡±

    "Remember! Ask for ammunition from the mainland! As much as you have! If the ammunition depot can't fit, dig a new ammunition depot! If it can't be loaded, let the soldiers carry it on their backs! Ammunition! Ammunition!"

    "Hi!"

    Fang Tianlang responded hurriedly, and the staff members saluted and left quickly.

    ¡°Although Xiaoniben is manufactured in a handmade workshop, hundreds of thousands of households should be able to produce a lot of ammunition if they are fully operational.¡±

    "Okinawa must destroy at least 2,000 US military tanks, 1,000 military trucks, and 1,000 military jeeps! Otherwise, such laborious preparations are completely meaningless."

    Fang Tianlang faced the sea breeze. On the springboard dozens of meters away, four soldiers were dragging a Type 94 75mm mountain gun slowly down to the dock and lined up to wait next to it.

    "Be careful! Thank you for your hard work!"

    "It's not hard work! Defend Okinawa! Defend the homeland!"

    "Okay! Everyone is a warrior of the empire! Come on! After killing a thousand American soldiers, I will treat you to a drink!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The US military easily captured Taiwan, and capturing Okinawa immediately became its only goal.

    Hundreds of commanders summarized the gains and losses in the Battle of Iwo Jima to prevent the tragedy from happening again on Okinawa.

    One Okinawa island is at least equivalent to the combat effectiveness of more than a dozen Iwo Jima islands. If the combined fleet is not mentally prepared enough, it is not impossible to be severely damaged or even destroyed as a whole.

    U.S. military commanders are still planning how to launch an attack on Okinawa.

    One by one, the warships have turned their heads and slowly headed towards Okinawa, which is more than a thousand kilometers away.

    The seven Magnesium State task forces and one Ying State task force combined have a total of nearly 1,300 ships, 1,800 carrier-based aircraft and nearly 500,000 combat personnel.

    The battle before us will undoubtedly be the last battle in the Pacific.

    Standing on Okinawa, the entire southern part of the Nihon Islands will appear in front of the US military without any obstruction. The next step will be to land on the main island of Nihon or bomb various industrial areas. No matter what the first step is, Okinawa must be taken down first.

    Okinawa, as the southwestern gateway to the Nippon Islands, was destined to have today's final battle since it was finalized hundreds of millions of years ago.

    By controlling Okinawa, the U.S. military can more easily take off bombers to bomb all armaments companies in the Kyushu region, causing serious damage to Japan's war machine.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
