Invincible from the sword

Chapter 460 Better Be Careful

Just when Yamaguchi Tamon was formulating the sneak attack plan, Pipe Mike, who was on Guadalcanal Island, was already preparing to hold a huge press conference on the island.

For this press conference, Pipe Mike even prepared the speech script.

For this speech, Pipe Mike revised it more than a hundred times.

Lao Fan, the commander of the First Marine Division next to him, grinned.

I drop mom.

This guy, Pipe Mike, is really good at doing this.

He was stunned to take the credit for occupying Guadalcanal Island to himself.

This skin is too f-cking enough.

In fact, the reason why their First Marine Division was able to successfully occupy Guadalcanal Island was largely due to Zhang Lei's intelligence.

Before the war, Zhang Lei told him that the Japanese army on Guadalcanal would not exceed [-].

And they are basically Japanese engineers with very rubbish combat effectiveness.

This has been confirmed after his Lao Fan's First Marine Division landed.

The combat effectiveness of the Japanese troops stationed on Guadalcanal was indeed rubbish.

And there are very few.

It was no match for his troops at all.

Occupy the airfield above Guadalcanal without even firing a shot.

Although the Japanese army carried out a sneak attack at night, the ability to attack can only be regarded as tickling.

His first marine division has lost only a hundred people since landing.

The Japanese army has lost more than 2000 soldiers in the rainforest and on the beach.

This is what they found.

There must have been many Japanese soldiers who died due to injuries or diseases.

The current Guadalcanal Airport has been officially put into use.

The name of the airport was also changed to Henderson Field.

This is what Nimitz strongly requested.

The reason for taking such a name is to commend Lieutenant Colonel Henderson of the Lighthouse Navy for his outstanding performance in the Battle of Midway Island.

Although the Japanese army's combat effectiveness was rubbish, the quality of the airports they built was very good.

Basically, it can be put into use without modification.

The airfield on the island is even capable of taking off and landing long-range bombers.

Taking off those fighter jets is even easier.

But as the commander of the First Marine Division, Lao Fan was very vigilant.

Zhang Lei had told him that the landing was easy, but the following battles were not easy to fight.

The strategic location of Guadalcanal is important.

The Japanese army will not give up easily.

At that time, it is not impossible to send a division to land and compete for this small island.

As the commander of the Lighthouse Navy, Lao Fan's trust in Zhang Lei is almost unconditional.

no way.

The entire Pacific Fleet of the Lighthouse Country is like this.

Up to Nimitz, down to ordinary soldiers, they trust Zhang Lei even more than their Jesus.

All naval soldiers know that as long as they fight according to Zhang Lei's plan, they will definitely win.

So at this time, Lao Fan was very opposed to Pipe Mike's approach.

Now this small island has not been completely taken down.

In the tropical rainforest of the island, there are still some Japanese troops.

Holding a press conference at this time is purely for death!
In this case, if he was shot black, who would he turn to for reasoning?

Hold a press conference?

Open a few! !

But Pipe Mike is his immediate boss now, although Lao Fan is very upset, he can only endure it.

He ordered the troops to be vigilant.

To prevent the Japanese attack.

Meanwhile, Lao Fan contacts Spruance at sea.

Ask his task force to protect the waters near Guadalcanal.

If the Japanese fleet took advantage of the loophole, then his First Marine Division would be in trouble.

If the Japanese warships ran back to bombard Guadalcanal, his troops would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

The power of the large-caliber naval gun of the battleship is not covered.

Especially the main gun.

One shot hit the past, and the killing area was as large as half a football field.

Just thinking about it makes your scalp go numb.

On this issue, Lao Fan also specifically reminded Pipe Mike.

But Pipe Mike thinks that Old Fan is too cautious.

Pipe Mike held the big corncob pipe in his mouth, pinched his waist and said disdainfully: "Old Fan, the Japanese navy has retreated completely.

What we have to do now is to insert the flag of the lighthouse country on the mainland of the island country.

do you understand?

The Japanese army is not our opponent at all. "

Speak very confidently.

As if he was the one fighting the war.

If it wasn't for Lao Fan's good temper, he might have slapped him.

How dare you say it.

Just open your mouth to talk nonsense.Also the Japanese army is not our opponent...

If Zhang Lei said this, then he is old Fan Xin.

But you, Pipe Mike, are you qualified to say so?

At first, it was driven from the country of Filipino servants to the country of kangaroos by the Japanese army.

He was driven from the kangaroo country to the mainland of the lighthouse country.

Not to mention other people, Lao Fan despises them very much.

Now that he is saying such nonsense, why doesn't this bastard know how to blush?
The soldiers of the First Marine Division are all ready to fight.

Don't dare to be careless at all.

Although it is quiet on Guadalcanal now, they are still on the first level of alert.

The several small-scale battles on the island have already given the soldiers of the First Marine Division a preliminary understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.

The Japanese army's desperate attack left a deep impression on these soldiers.

So in their view, Lao Fan's order was correct.

It's better to be careful.

And the Japanese army on the island is indeed planning a counterattack.

In the depths of a tropical rainforest on the island, the commander of the Japanese army, Ichiki, looked very ugly.

His wing has suffered heavy losses since landing.

It was completely beyond his expectations.

When his wing reinforced Guadalcanal, his superiors told him that the troops of the Lighthouse Kingdom on Guadalcanal were only a small force.

One of his supervisors, coupled with the engineers who were already on the island, was enough to retake the entire island.

Ichiki, the commander of the Japanese army, also thought so at the beginning.

In his opinion, those soldiers in the Lighthouse Country were not suitable for war at all.

As long as his troops attack a little, the opponent will be defeated.

But when he landed on the island with his troops, Kazuki was shocked to find that he had been deceived.

Horse's.

The other party actually placed more than [-] troops on this island.

And there are a lot of planes parked at the airport.

What's even worse is that all the ships floating in the ocean near the island are the opponent's warships.

Don't talk about hitting.

It's depressing to watch.

How to fight this?
Kazuki has a feeling of being cheated.

His alliance landed at night.

Therefore, the situation of the entire sea surface cannot be seen at all.

But after landing, it was too late to retreat.

Although the Japanese engineers on the island did not exchange fire with the soldiers of the lighthouse country, they had a very high casualty rate because they retreated into the tropical rainforest.

Coupled with the shortage of food, more than 2000 Japanese military engineers died of starvation alone, and hundreds of them died.

In addition, many people died of infection from insect bites.

Two-thirds of the more than 2000 engineers had already died when the Ichiki Regiment landed.

Watanabe, the engineer captain of the Japanese army, is no longer human.

When I saw Ichiki United, I was so excited that I cried.

The loved ones are finally here.

If you don't come, we will all be destroyed.

During this time, Watanabe has been frightened by the tropical rainforest on the island.
