Chapter 154 Burning Okinawa (2)

The Chinese army of the crazy army still had a certain understanding of the deployment of the Japanese army on Okinawa, so the first wave of strikes came very fierce and precisely. Ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, heavy ground-boring bombs and even shock wave bombs took turns to destroy the strategic fortifications hidden underground at any cost. As for the must-fight place of Okinawa, Naha Port, it was blown into a sea of ​​fire. After a fierce bombing, dozens of transport aircraft covered the sky and spread the umbrella flower cloth, and the 15th Airborne Army came on stage.

The 15th Airborne Army played an important role in landing war. An airborne regiment was responsible for seizing Ie Island, which was horned with Okinawa's main island, and destroying heavy artillery on Ie Island. The other three airborne regiments were airborne in Anbo Chashan and Yaeyu Mountain, and they were like nails to penetrate into the depth of the Japanese army's defense to cover the landing of the Marines. Their supplies were under the responsibility of the Second Air Assault Division. It is not difficult to imagine how heavy the burden on these airborne soldiers was. It can be said that from the moment their toes touched the ground, they were surrounded by the Japanese army. However, paratroopers were born to be surrounded, right?

In order to ensure the smooth airborne of Yijiang Island, under the command of Major General Liu Yunrui, the Neptune's maritime platform continuously fired several temperature-pressure bombs into the airborne field. The power of the 460mm naval gun was imagined. The majestic high-temperature air waves wiped out the vegetation of the entire Yijiang Island, and there were no ants. The airborne troops controlled the paragliders to fly flexibly and agilely to the landing ground where the heat waves were tumbling. Except for the sporadic anti-aircraft machine gun firepower, they did not encounter any more powerful obstacles. Japan's air defense power had been destroyed by those temperature-pressure bombs.

Opened to the airborne troops, the paratroopers of the 15th Airborne Army landed very smoothly and began to eliminate the remaining enemies. The pterosaur turboprop fighters and large armed helicopters hovered over their heads. Once the target was found, there was no need to say anything. Several tracer fire bombs hit the target and the low-altitude killer immediately rushed down and used anti-tank missiles and simple guided aviation rockets to name the remaining fortifications one by one. Under the joint strangle of paratroopers and army aviation, the Japanese army on Yijiang Island was beaten so hard that they could not lift their heads. Soon several commanding heights were lost. The 15th Airborne Army gained a firm foothold on Yijiang Island.

The airborne on Okinawa Island was not so smooth. In the early stages of the airborne, Yae Yatsuyama and Anba Chashan were silent, allowing the Yunshen transport plane to spread umbrella flowers on his head, as if the people below were dead. However, after the main aircraft group entered the field, a sudden alarm sounded loudly, and groups of air defense missiles rose up from the ground and shot at the transport plane group in a row. Several transport planes were shot and exploded in the air. The debris of the air force and the broken limbs of the paratroopers flew all over the sky, falling like raindrops. The commander of the 45th Airborne Division's eyes turned red and he let out a wild roar: "My soldier!"

These anti-aircraft missiles were just a prelude. Then, dense anti-aircraft machine guns emerged and spewed poisonous flames into the sky. Countless fire chains crossed and rolled over, and clusters of blood mist kept blowing out in the blue sky. The broken parachute fragments fell like snowflakes, and together they were covered with blood rain. These two strategic points turned into hedgehogs covered with thorns, and the umbrella flowers floating towards it broke and withered in the roar of the anti-aircraft machine gun...

Faced with the extremely dense air defense firepower, the paratroopers had to manipulate the parachutes to leave the center of the metal storm. Only a very small number of paratroopers luckily penetrated the layers of firepower nets and successfully landed onto Yale Mountain. Then they started a fierce melee with the Japanese army emerging from the underground, and eventually all casualties were all. The paratroopers landed at the foot of the mountain were also firmly nailed by the mortar fire and small-caliber naval gun fire from the mountain. They wanted to advance but couldn't retreat but couldn't, and the action to seize these two commanding heights failed.

Neptune's sea platform was furious, and the 460mm naval gun kept roaring, and mushroom clouds as big as basketball courts were blown up on Yaeyue Mountain and Anbo Chashan Mountain. The mountains collapsed and the ground broke, and the rocks turned into powder. Forty shells were fired in a row, and the barrels were red. These two commanding heights had been turned into hornet's nests, and finally fell into silence. The paratroopers took the opportunity to launch an attack, rushed to the middle of the mountain in one breath, and they were about to reach the top of the mountain. A machine gun emerged from the cracks of the rocks, and fierce firepower swept across the hillside. Many paratroopers were shot one after another and rolled down with the rocks. The whole day, the paratroopers were fighting fiercely with these machine gun fire points that were everywhere and could emerge behind them at any time.

The battle was extremely difficult. The strength of these two strategic points was beyond their imagination. No matter how the naval guns bombarded, the firepower did not weaken at all. The paratroopers with red eyes sent a large number of muskets and found that the machine gun fire point was blowing fire inside. On the hillside covered with charred floating soil, the hollowed-out mountains became purgatory. The bodies of the dead paratroopers accumulated on the hillside and at the foot of the mountain, and blood dyed brown spots on the mountain. In the underground fortifications, the corpses of the Japanese army burned to charcoal were also erect. Some of the corpses had their eyes raised high and their faces were bluish and extremely terrifying. This was the oxygen grenade thrown in from the ventilation hole and was suffocated to death. I believe no one would like to try this way of death.

Late that night, the paratroopers who were standing on Yaeyue Mountain and Anbo Cha Mountain were shocked to see groups of Japanese troops emerging from the back slope of the mountain. The dense bayonets reflected the moonlight, emitting a dim and cold light. The bare mountains were immediately covered by the steel jungle! The paratroopers urgently called for air support, and the swaying napalm bombs submerged the Japanese troops in large areas in the sea of ​​fire. However, many Japanese troops who were splashed with gasoline were still rushing towards them with bayonets. The fierceness and madness made the paratroopers instinctively feel a hint of chill. Because the Japanese troops were at a high position, the impact came extremely rapidly. In a few minutes, the two sides met in close combat and had just stopped.

The fierce battle lasted for several hours again. The automatic rifle submachine gun made the shells splash, and strings of bullets flew into enemies dozens of meters, dozens of meters or even a few meters away. The heavy machine gun swallowed the bullets on the ammunition belt at an astonishing speed, and then turned the pellets swallowed into a terrifying metal storm and poured out. The high-explosive grenades burst out from each other. The blood flowers were extremely charming against the backdrop of the flames and the explosion fire. Then they withered at an astonishing speed, announcing the end of life. The two sides were completely melee, and the air support was unable to be launched. Over and over again, a helicopter and turboprop fighter could only watch the rising signal flares anxiously.

This was undoubtedly a bloody battle. In just a few hours, both sides fought hundreds of lives on these two commanding heights. When the flares rose into the sky, those who could still stand were shocked to find that they were surrounded by corpses. Yes, they were all corpses lying across the ground, and in the corner of the fiercest battle, the bodies even had six layers of corpses. The Japanese army failed to defeat the paratroopers, and the paratroopers also failed to capture these two commanding heights. When the dawn broke through the boundless night, the Japanese army retreated into the fortifications of the tunnel, and the paratroopers put machine guns on the chest wall made of corpses and stared at their blood-spreading eyes and gasped sharply.

The Japanese military contacted the commander of the paratrooper regiment: "You can send helicopters to transport away the wounded soldiers and bodies. We promise not to attack, but we hope you can also help transport the bodies of our dead soldiers to cremate."

The commander of the 15th Airborne Army agreed. More than a dozen large transport helicopters rose and fell, and carried the bodies of the paratroopers and the Japanese army onto the plane to transport them away. After transporting them for more than a day, the plane was covered with black and purple plasma.

The Japanese army did not attack.

Some people complained that this was equivalent to giving away several hours of breathing opportunities to the Japanese army in vain, but the commander insisted on doing so. He could not watch the remains of his soldiers being blown into powder by naval guns and aviation bombs. People could not take them back, but at least they had to take them back and could not throw them in a foreign land. The bodies transported down were placed by the sea, washed away blood, wrapped in white cloth, and cremated, and then put them in an urn, engraved with the names of the dead and the time and place of the death, and sent them to the plane. The remains of the Japanese army were the same. They tried to engrave names on the urns to facilitate handing over to their families after the war.

After transporting all the remains away, the Second Air Assault Division organized an air assault and used a transport helicopter to send a downward infantry company to the top of Anbo Chashan, hoping to give the Japanese army a center to blossom. At the beginning, it was quite smooth. They successfully stood firm on the mountain and repelled several counterattacks of the Japanese army. However, under the tenacious blockade of the Japanese army, the paratroopers pressed on the hillside could not rush up to meet the downward infantry company. The distance of only a few dozen meters or hundreds of meters was as far away as from the earth to the moon. Late at night, the heavy mortars of the Japanese army were in a small woods several kilometers away.

A row of flying shells exploded the top of the mountain into a boiling crater. The flames of each shell exploded by flashing by, and the Japanese army could be seen roaring and roaring. The cruel night battle began again. After a whole night of hard fighting, the ridge was completely obscured by the bodies, and the paratroopers nailed to the hillside suffered heavy losses, but the Japanese army still failed to knock them down from the mountain. Everything was like a replica of the Battle of Shangganling, but in this arduous battle, the 15th Army, which had once hit the United Nations army on Shangganling, was the bloody 15th Army.

ps: Swearing, besides cursing, I'm curious, where are you so angry? I said that I had a day off yesterday. Could it be so sinful to stop and rest for a day after I was tired of writing and couldn't write anymore? Well, I will stop and rest for a day every Sunday from now on. Long live the understanding of what I can understand. If I can't understand, go out and turn left, don't leave, don't send it. Also, don't report it to me. Damn!
