    Ito immediately issued the combat order.

    The cruiser "Yagi" hidden in the far distance immediately made all battle preparations. The non-combatants left the battleship along the rope ladder and gave a final salute before joining the army's battle sequence.

    After nightfall, it immediately starts the engine, rushes forward five or six kilometers, and then uses the 152mm front main gun to deliver firepower. If a US destroyer attacks, it will immediately launch torpedoes to counterattack.

    Throughout the night, a total of six 152mm artillery pieces will fire shells at Zamami Island, Aka Island, Keiryu Island and Oji Island regardless of whether they can hit the target.

    Every attack must be carried out with great momentum to inflict the most severe physical and mental trauma on the U.S. soldiers at the same time.

    The stars are shining and night is falling.

    In six hours, the US military established five large field hospitals, two supply centers, three rest camps and a battleship repair center on the Kerama Islands. A total of 2,900 soldiers were responsible for guarding the four islands and another 1,000  More than 300 logistics personnel and medical staff are scattered everywhere.

    The forward base will definitely be of great help for landing operations. One more foothold for soldiers will provide more security.

    ¡°The attack is underway, the ¡®Yagi¡¯ is launched¡­¡±

    Fang Tianlang stood in the tunnel, and Ito made a deep voice.

    It is absolutely tragic to see warships carrying out fatal attacks one after another. Although each warship can destroy more targets than expected, the navy really no longer has the ability and time to build such large warships.

    "Remember the battle record and the coordinates of the final sinking point. All imperial warriors will enter the Yasukuni Shrine in the future!"

    Fang Tianlang did not go to see the final firefight at sea.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out for others to watch, go back to the room and have a good rest for an hour or two and then wait for the anti-landing operations after dawn.

    Even if the forward base is bombarded, the U.S. military will probably launch a cross-sea operation. Dozens of large landing ships are already targeting the beach five kilometers away. When the sky gets brighter, there will definitely be another bloody battle.

    ¡°Boom¡­boom¡­¡±

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    June 1, 1945.

    "Your Excellency, General, the US military is shelling the beachhead between Gucha and Anfuzu, and it is expected to launch a landing operation in half an hour."

    "I know, how is the 'Yagi'?!"

    "The 'Yagi' was shattered and sank a US destroyer. The ship fired more than 270 large-caliber anti-explosive grenades and armor-piercing high-explosive bombs. According to the intercepted US military cables, there were a total of 500 missiles on the Kerama Islands.  More than forty American soldiers were killed, one hundred and forty British soldiers were killed, and the number of casualties exceeded four hundred.¡±

    "knew¡­"

    Fang Tianlang tidied up his military uniform and walked towards the highest command center.

    A light cruiser sank a destroyer, destroyed a large number of base facilities, and killed more than a thousand Allied soldiers. It was considered a qualified record. The remaining warships in Okinawa that could continue to fight were only the last six destroyers and seven submarines under the water.  , there are still opportunities to take the initiative, but they are bound to become less and less.

    The senior commanders in the combat command room are full of desire for battle. The opening of one more landing zone by the US military means more battle losses will occur in more time.

    Every inch of Okinawa is under strong firepower, and no matter where you land, you will be violently intercepted by the defenders.

    "The 24th Division is responsible for guarding this area. It can definitely destroy a sufficient number of Allied soldiers. European soldiers finally joined in. Our artillery fire yesterday killed and injured British soldiers."

    Ushijima stood in front of the map and gestured with his hand.

    "No matter where they are, soldiers will turn into corpses in the end. Yingguo guys are not good people."

    Fang Tianlang smiled and nodded. Killing more soldiers of the Ying Army at this moment can be regarded as an early revenge against the later Ying Kingdom's small tricks against the Huaxia Kingdom.

    "Today, today we have another chance to kill 10,000 Allied soldiers. In two theaters, the larger the fighting area, the better!"

    A senior commander was full of confidence and took out the chalk and wrote the latest date on the blackboard.

    "The tank unit is ready for combat, using deception tactics and smoke bomb cover. Pretend to be an Allied force and intersperse combat units, find an entry point to launch an attack, and a tank combat unit can destroy at least one Allied infantry battalion."

    Fang Tianlang showed a little evil smile. If he hadn't taken away the nine tanks, the attack force of the Okinawa defenders would have been stronger.

    ¡°Is it best to attack at night?!¡±

    "Yes! Not allAll the soldiers in the army know that we have captured the tank and covered it with artillery fire, and we can rush over in ten minutes.  "

    "Five main battle tanks and four fire-breathing tanks will kill any target they encounter!"

    "Hi!"

    The sea was calm, and despite being shelled at night, the Allied forces launched the landing operation as planned.

    Only by landing quickly can you find those warships and submarines hidden everywhere and then sink them quickly. The Okinawa defenders' tactic of hiding warships and submarines in offshore areas and then suddenly releasing them is simply frightening.

    There was thick smoke and dust on the beach, and dozens of dive bombers dropped a bunch of aerial bombs. The U.S. military commanders also knew that air strikes and shelling could not kill the Japanese soldiers hiding underground.

    Throwing more firepower and creating craters will give soldiers a place to avoid flying shrapnel.

    It is really unexpected that the Okinawa defenders have such a terrifying weapon system as the large-caliber multiple rocket launcher. If the Iwo Jima defenders also had the same weapon system, they would definitely kill more landing soldiers in the beachhead area.

    Eighty mechanized landing craft suddenly appeared on the sea. Behind the neatly arranged landing craft were sixty lvt amphibious landing vehicles, and further away were six large tank landing craft.

    The 96th Division of the US Army and two independent regiments of the British Army will conduct landing operations on the seven-kilometer-long beach. If they can successfully occupy the beachhead, they can attack the 107th Army of the Kwantung Army from the side and rear to form a pincer attack.

    The Allied forces were already unable to bear the huge battle losses that had occurred in the past five days. They had to speed up and cut Okinawa in half so that they could deploy more combat units to form a strength advantage.

    "Reload the ammunition! Five minutes left!"

    "Get ready to enter the position! Each gun fires rapidly in one minute!"

    Fireworks were scattered on the beach, and the artillery regiments of the 24th Division were preparing to carry out the first round of strikes according to the plan.

    A total of four sets of Type 5 multiple rocket launchers, twelve Type 96 150mm medium mortars, twelve Type 2 120mm medium mortars and six Type 99 105mm mountain guns will concentrate firepower on about one third of the target.  Landing area.

    Concentrate your firepower to attack one area, then hide to avoid the counterattack, and then bombard the next area.

    Artillery combat units are always the most reliable force for anti-landing operations and can produce obvious killing effects in a very short time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
