    Fang Tianlang returned to the highest command center. The Japanese commanders in the combat command room were paying close attention to the battle situation in the distance.

    No matter how the war situation progresses, you must have a good meal at noon every day to ensure good health. The battles in the third landing zone and the central theater will not change suddenly, so the Japanese commanders can handle it themselves.

    Seventy percent of the soldiers and all command staff of the 9th Division were evacuated in advance. Even if the entire area was surrounded by US troops, there would not be much battle damage.

    The remaining 30% of the soldiers will not fight to the end but will choose to stick to or abandon their defensive positions according to the battle situation.

    "Aha! I eat while others fight!"

    The guards brought lunch, which was three bowls of rice, two bowls of soup and five dishes as usual.

    "Not bad! Huizi, let's eat!"

    The room was filled with aroma. The chef responsible for cooking for the senior commanders of the Supreme Command Center obviously had excellent skills. Many cans were reprocessed to make them more delicious.

    "You are outside every day, it is very dangerous, I have to worry."

    "Don't worry! I can't die, I have brothers by my side!"

    "I'm not your brother, I'm a woman, how can I be a brother?"

    "Hmm we'll discuss this issue later. It involves the multi-dimensional world of the universe. You don't understand it now"

    Fang Tianlang shook his head. Huizi¡¯s Chinese is improving every day but he still can¡¯t understand some complicated things. Fortunately, there is still a long time. If you keep studying every day, you will make progress step by step.

    After lunch, I took a nap. The sound of gunfire outside was separated by more than 30 meters of rock formations, and almost nothing could be heard.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The U.S. military encountered strong resistance and deployed warships to carry out ground bombardment.

    Even if there would be some accidental damage, we had to keep shelling until the tanks rushed to the beach. I never expected that the Japanese army's firepower would be so fierce. It was like they just joined the battle on the first day.

    Fifty-nine thousand U.S. and allied troops have been killed, but it does not seem to have caused much trauma to the Okinawa defenders. Every day, no matter where they attack, they will be covered and killed by intensive firepower.

    As Fang Tianlang fell asleep, dozens of tank landing ships that the US military turned around and left finally approached the beach and dropped more than a hundred main battle tanks on the beach.

    "Charge forward! Charge forward!"

    "Establish a machine gun position! Mortar! Shoot!"

    The American soldiers struggled to cross the beach, while the Japanese soldiers patiently waited for the opportunity to attack under artillery fire.

    Immediately after the suppression of naval gunfire overhead, a thousand soldiers will emerge from the tunnel and shoot with various weapons and ammunition.

    Five to six hundred rifles, a hundred machine guns, and dozens of small-caliber mortars and grenades. Although the intensive firepower could not destroy the advancing "Sherman" tank, it could kill the American soldiers accompanying the impact.  enough.

    At this moment, the main battle tanks that are struggling to advance on the beach will be fired by firemen to launch 150mm rockets for point-to-point bombardment. Two hundred 150mm rockets are prepared to destroy at least fifty targets.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    "How's the battle going?!"

    Fang Tianlang walked into the combat command room while rubbing his eyes, and a combat staff officer hurriedly walked forward.

    ¡°The landing zone controlled by the U.S. military is eight kilometers wide and 300 to 100 meters deep. Forty-five tanks have been destroyed. The U.S. military estimates that the number of casualties is between 2,000 and 2,500.¡±

    "Welleven if all this area is lost, 10,000 to 15,000 US soldiers can be killed."

    Fang Tianlang nodded, walked back to the table and wrote down the numbers in a small book with a pen. The number reported by the combat staff should only be the number of American soldiers who were shot on the beach. If the number of those who died on the sea is also included, at least  To break through four thousand.

    Fang Tianlang left the combat command room and entered the alley to use binoculars to observe the battle situation in the distance. The US military fought continuously for an hour and a half and finally managed to seize a beachhead, but it was difficult to move forward one step further.

    Both roads were blocked by Japanese soldiers with rapid-fire artillery and single-barreled rocket launchers.

    An armored fighting vehicle cannot overtake the infantry, and it is even more difficult to move forward. Leaving the road and heading from the river beach may be able to avoid some direct fire, but the tank tracks will obviously get stuck in the sand and gravel, which will slow down the forward speed.

    "There are paratroopers! There are paratroopers!"

    Dozens of dive bombers dropped bombs in mid-air, one wave at a time, exploding billowing clouds of smoke on a small hill.

    Two hundred U.S. paratroopers jumped out of the transport plane one after another. The U.S. commander took the risk of using paratroopers in the hope of knocking out several Japanese artillery positions from behind.The army can break through quickly.

    Occupy the commanding heights and then use machine guns to shoot from above. Only by eliminating direct fire can the armored fighting vehicles continue to advance. If more than 20,000 soldiers are crowded on the beach and covered by large-caliber artillery, hundreds of lives will be lost immediately.

    The U.S. military paratroopers opened their parachutes from a low altitude of 300 meters.

    A dozen Japanese soldiers suddenly appeared on the hill they planned to occupy, shooting into the air with small weapons.

    The submachine gun and Type 38 rifle fired in the air and quickly hit many targets, leaving blood dripping on the ground.

    It is also expected that the US military will conduct airborne operations. There will be submachine gunners on each hilly position to shoot into the air immediately, and at least two light machine guns will join the battle in a few dozen seconds.

    ¡°Da da da¡­ da da da¡­¡±

    Long tongues of flame erupted from the ground, and two light machine guns fired bullets into the air.

    More Japanese soldiers shouted slogans and quickly emerged from the ground and started shooting in the air.

    Capturing a corpse of an American soldier or a wounded person can quickly be turned into supplies. Many Japanese soldiers who fought head-on with the US military for the first time were full of excitement, as if what was falling from the sky was not paratroopers but boxes of cans or cans.  It's bottles of beer.

    The U.S. paratroopers in mid-air were shot one after another, and the U.S. commander in the distance closed his eyes in pain.

    The Okinawa defenders have soldiers deployed on every hill. They are not afraid of sudden attacks from the air. All paratroopers will either be killed or captured. Everything will be over in two minutes.

    "Report! Destroy a U.S. parachute attack!"

    "One hundred and forty-five American soldiers were shot and killed, and fifty-five were captured. Four of our soldiers were killed and seven wounded."

    The loud voice of the combat staff sounded in the combat command room, and the senior commanders had a look of satisfaction on their faces. In a random battle, they killed a large number of opponents while their own casualties were almost negligible.

    "Give me the order! Collect the corpses, take care of the prisoners of war, collect the parachutes, weapons and ammunition, and I'll go take a look. In addition, send a message to the US military and ask them to prepare food and supplies. With so many prisoners of war and corpses, at least fifty tons can be exchanged.  Food, each soldier participating in the war will be rewarded with two boxes of cans, a bottle of beer and five packs of cigarettes!¡±

    "Hi!"

    Fang Tianlang left the combat command room and walked quickly to the front. After collecting some parachutes, he might be able to use them at a critical moment. As long as they were weapons, ammunition or military equipment, he couldn't let go of even an engineer shovel.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
