Chapter 1495 Preliminary opening of the situation

"Oh, Fark! These damn devils!"

Seeing that the American soldiers were suffering heavy casualties, they were blown up by the Japanese meat bombs and flesh and blood. Several tanks were even destroyed in the Japanese anti-tank grenades, magnetic anti-tank, and suicide bombings.

Nimitz's eyes suddenly turned red, and his hands that grabbed the telescope were emitting blue veins. He wanted to let the fleet shoot immediately, blowing all the Japanese soldiers who were like the devil of hell into pieces, making them die ugly.

But now the Japanese suicide squad has been fighting with the American soldiers, and the naval guns are simply unable to carry out accurate bombing.

As a beacon of human freedom and democracy, America will never make such an inhuman indiscriminate bombardment!

At this time, Nimitz and others could only watch the chaotic and bloody battle in the distance, begging their troops to be more powerful and try to die as little as possible.

In fact, those well-trained and well-armed American soldiers were not really lambs to be slaughtered. After a brief period of chaos and panic, they quickly found the feeling and resolutely fought against the Japanese suicide squad with their lives.

"Hurry up! Cover the fire immediately!"

Just as the US military was about to complete the counterattack, the Japanese commander took advantage of this opportunity and immediately issued an indiscriminate bombing.

Bang bang bang bang!

Da da da da da!

Immediately afterwards, dozens of mortars and more than a dozen heavy machine guns from the Japanese rear positions sounded one after another, and one after another, shells and a series of metal warheads storm a storm of death, and the US military suffered extremely serious casualties again.

On this inconspicuous island, the US military underestimated the Japanese army from the very beginning.

Because the island was too small, the Japanese army organized defenses at the front of the beach, and the US artillery equipment failed to destroy the fortifications built by the Japanese army on the solid cliffs.

The landing craft was launched too early, and it started to attack from more than 10,000 meters away, giving the Japanese army plenty of time to enter the fortifications.

When the US military rushed ashore and stood firm, it suddenly opened fire. The US commander was seriously injured and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. They were overwhelmed by the dense firepower on the beach.

Because the enemy and us are too close to each other, it is impossible to implement naval gun fire support.

Until a few hours later, the follow-up troops sent 81mm mortars and more tanks to the shore.

After a very difficult and bloody melee, all the Japanese suicide squads that counterattacked were eliminated by the US military and defeated the first Japanese beach front position.

The battle on the East Island finally came to an end, but the US military also suffered hundreds of casualties and more than twenty Sherman tanks.

After the fierce battle, the entire scene was filled with smoke, and the strong smell of blood filled every corner. Various corpses and broken limbs and broken arms were scattered all over the ground, and the corpses of officers and soldiers from both sides of the enemy and us intertwined!

The U.S. soldiers who survived the bloody battle had red eyes, gasping heavily, their bodies were still trembling, and their minds were still blank.

Among the dead, there were many dying Japanese soldiers. The American soldiers were wailing in pain, making this battlefield that looked like hell on earth even more bloody and cruel!

"I'm going to buy it! Hurry up, medical staff!"

"Come and save people!"

"Sergeant Ryan, you have to hold on! The medical soldiers will come soon!"

A moment later, amid the shrill howling, the American soldiers finally returned to their souls and began to search and rescue the wounded, calling on medical staff to rescue their dying comrades!

At the same time, facing the Japanese soldiers who were seriously injured and waiting to die, the American soldiers with good hearts not only did not re-sell the guns, but instead provided help to save them.

But unfortunately, the Japanese soldiers who were in danger not only did not be grateful, but instead took advantage of the opportunity of American soldiers to rescue and pulled the grenades on their bodies and continued to play with self-destruction.

Bang bang bang bang, several self-destructions occurred one after another. Unpredictable, more than ten US soldiers fell into pools of blood and died in vain!

"I'm! Shet! These damn devils are not worthy of sympathy!"

"Everyone must be careful not to easily approach the Japanese corpse. You can re-shoot the gun before confirming his death!"

After suffering losses, the US military commanders finally understood a truth: it turns out that war is so cruel and unlimited. It turns out that humanitarianism and the Geneva Convention on paper are not applicable on the battlefield!

After suffering a loss, one will become wise. After thoroughly trying the madness and cruelty of the Japanese soldiers, the US soldiers finally learned to be smart and no longer be kind or merciful.

When cleaning the battlefield, no matter whether the Japanese army is still breathing, as long as they find that the target is suspicious, they will fire a few shots first, and they will not care about humanity or inhumanity.

The Japanese army's decisive counterattack process lasted less than half an hour, but the subsequent battle and battlefield aftermath took four or five hours.

After the beachhead position was secured and more heavy weapons such as tanks and mortars came ashore, the US soldiers mustered up the courage to summon aircraft to provide aviation fire support under the cover of tanks, and then gradually began to advance in depth.

At this time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, less than four hours before dark.

For the Japanese defenders of Higashima, they achieved their expected goal, and they wanted to trade their lives with the craziest means and delay the speed of the US offensive to the greatest extent.

But then again, the US military was really bloody after this battle, so it was completely let go. Even if the next battle would be even more bloody, even if the Japanese army would resist to the end, the result of the battle was already destined in advance!

...

At this time, the Chinese Hub Marine Corps had all landed on Shangsha Island, firmly occupying one-quarter of the island's land area.

Artillery, engineers, and medical soldiers are stepping up their positions to prepare for further conquering the core Japanese positions on the Sand Island.

Because it was less than four hours before dark, in order to prevent Japanese troops from attacking at night, it was necessary to stabilize the occupied areas and build a good defensive position.

Sand Island is the largest island in Midway Island, with a low terrain that is only 12 meters above sea level, and the core position of the Japanese army is on this undulating mountainous land.

If the Allies had not occupied absolute air supremacy, they would have blown up the Japanese surface artillery on the island long ago. In the previous battles, the artillery and air force once again destroyed many emerging artillery.

Then the Hu Ben Army could only fight hard against continuous artillery attacks. Not only would it cost several times of casualties, but it would be impossible to blatantly build a defensive position on the island under the eyes of the Japanese.

And in the mountain not far away, the Japanese army built a large number of fortifications to turn it into a solid mountain fortress. It cannot be completely destroyed by artillery fire. In the end, it has to rely on manpower to bite it!
