Anti-Japanese blood sacrifice mountains and rivers

After the annual meeting, I forgot the power supply of my laptop in the hotel

Song Xilian hesitated for a moment and said, "At present, the U.S. military's intelligence agency has no geological intelligence reports on Iwo Jima. Our army is now using aerial reconnaissance photos. The Japanese army's ground anti-aircraft firepower is very fierce, and reconnaissance planes cannot conduct reconnaissance at low altitudes. i^"

Shen Yingxiong thought for a while and said: "Iwo Jima is such a palm-sized place, and the U.S. military has prepared quite violent artillery fire and bombing. If we simply analyze the data, the Japanese soldiers on the island can get a few shells or bombs. According to With this kind of firepower density, we don’t need to land and fight at all, and we can just collect the Japanese corpses directly.”

Song Xilian was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect Shen Yingxiong to be so optimistic. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Even if the US Pacific Fleet can organize fierce firepower and block the Japanese fighter planes taking off from the Tokyo area of ​​Japan, but in the fierce Under the firepower, the Japanese troops can only suffer a certain degree of loss. Even under the carpet bombing, there will still be Japanese officers and soldiers surviving. The island landing battle is a last stand. The Japanese also know the captive policy of our Chinese expeditionary force, so they stubbornly resisted. It's very possible."

Shen Yingxiong nodded, and suddenly changed his tone: "The commander-in-chief was also worried that you would have arrogant thoughts and underestimate the enemy. The Japanese army's fighting will is very strong, especially in this desperate situation, the Japanese army will definitely attack in large numbers. Deploy veterans with combat experience. Before our army discovered through aerial reconnaissance that the Japanese army had transferred veterans with combat experience from the Korean army to return to Japan, and sent them to the Philippines and Iwo Jima. The actual strength of the Japanese army on Iwo Jima should be higher than that of the United States. The information provided is much more. i^" Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 939

Song Xilian was taken aback when she heard this, because before that, the combat and landing plans of the six divisions under the jurisdiction of the Chinese Expeditionary Army Amphibious Marine Force were formulated based on the information provided by the United States. If the information provided by the United States was inaccurate, the landing operations We will encounter major resistance. The most important thing is that the commanding height of Iwo Jima is Mount Suribachi. Although the mountain is not high in altitude, it overlooks the entire Iwo Jima. In addition to several hills in the Wonsan area, the artillery positions deployed by the Japanese army on it It is possible to use firepower to cover any location on the island, especially the beachhead, which makes Song Xilian feel very difficult to deal with.

Shen Yingxiong arranged ten consecutive days of U.S. bombing photos and aerial reconnaissance photos by date, pointing to these ten consecutive photos and said: "For more than ten days, the U.S. military has taken off the B29 Super Sky Fortress heavy bomber from Saipan. A saturated bombing was carried out on Saipan, and the airport repaired overnight by the Japanese was almost razed to the ground. The docks and all exposed fortifications built by the Japanese army on the island were intensively bombed, but judging from the photos, the dense The bombing did not cause much damage to the Japanese army, and it is planned to burn the camouflaged fortifications of the Japanese army by dropping napalm incendiary bombs, destroy their camouflage, and then use the battleship's large-caliber main guns to destroy them."

Song Xilian looked at the photos lined up by Shen Yingxiong and said: "The Japanese army has stockpiled tens of thousands of troops on a small island with an area of ​​only more than [-] square kilometers, so the Japanese army must build a large number of solid underground fortification systems. Mount Suribachi is a volcanic rock area in the Wonsan area that can be excavated by the Japanese army. If the Japanese army built a solid fortification system on Mount Suribachi and Wonsan, it would be difficult to completely destroy the defense system of the Japanese army by bombing and shelling alone.

Shen Yingxiong smiled slightly and said: "The tactical commander in chief of the Japanese army will dig Mount Suribachi. After seeing the sand table made by the aerial reconnaissance photos of Iwo Jima, he concluded that the Japanese army will definitely dig a tunnel connecting Mount Suribachi and Wonsan. If After this tunnel is really dug by the Japanese army, the Japanese army guarding the island can attack the troops landing in the middle of the island from two directions, and our army landing on the beach will be under the direct firepower of the Japanese artillery position on Mount Suribachi. , and the Japanese army built and excavated a large number of fortifications inside Mount Suribachi. If we want to completely wipe out the stubborn Japanese troops, our army must go deep into the Japanese army fortifications on Mount Suribachi and enter the preset battlefield of the Japanese army. Heavy casualties."

Song Xilian took a deep breath and said, "The napalm bombs and cloud explosives used by the U.S. military seem to have little effect in the battle against Iwo Jima. Today, the U.S. military used cloud bombs to attack Iwo Jima. But from the evaluation point of view, the effect is not satisfactory, the commander of the Japanese army seems to be different from the previous command method, and the US intelligence agencies are collecting intelligence information about the commander of the Japanese army defending Iwo Jima."

Shen Yingxiong nodded and said: "The Japanese army on Iwo Jima may adopt new tactics that we have never seen before. This time, the commander-in-chief asked me to bring you [-] tons of mustard gas, phosgene and other poisonous gases. The Japanese army seized the spoils of war between the Northeast and the Far East, and Commander-in-Chief Gao suggested that after the successful landing of our army, we should use a large number of poison gas shells on the Suribachi and Wonsan areas of the Japanese army.”

Song Xilian was slightly taken aback and said, "The large-scale use of poison gas does not conform to the Geneva Convention, right? And will the Americans fully support our army's use of poison gas shells in the Iwo Jima area?"

Shen Yingxiong waved his hand and said: "Neither the United States nor Japan is a signatory to the Geneva Chemical Weapons Limitation Treaty. The Japanese use chemical weapons on our territory unscrupulously. What humanitarian considerations should we take into account? It is you who want to minimize the casualties of the troops." The commander's responsibility, the victor will not be condemned, and these weapons are all made by the Japanese themselves, isn't it just right to leave them to those stubborn Japanese troops?"

Song Xilian and Shen Yingxiong are discussing how to use chemical weapons to attack the Japanese army on Iwo Jima. In the tunnel of Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima, a Japanese lieutenant general covered in dust is inspecting the dug out bunkers and fortifications one by one. , A group of Japanese army and navy officers who followed him were also disheartened.

Since the main naval and air forces of the Japanese army suffered devastating blows in the naval battle of the Mariana Islands, they were no longer able to provide sea and air support for Iwo Jima. The anti-landing operations on Iwo Jima were to be carried out with almost no sea and air support.

As the commander of the Japanese garrison on Iwo Jima, Abayashi was an excellent professional soldier in the Japanese army. He once served as the head of the Imperial Guard Division of the Imperial Guard. With absolute sea and air superiority, beachhead operations are difficult to be effective. It is advocated to rely on the favorable terrain of Mount Suribachi and Wonsan and rely on solid fortifications to implement defense in depth.
