Regardless of the exhaustion of the one-day inspection, Forrestal inspected the three divisions of the Chinese Expeditionary Army Amphibious Marine Corps in succession. With a refreshing feeling, what surprised him the most was that Chinese soldiers actually cut their fingers and wrote blood books, asking to participate in the battle?What kind of spirit is this?The Chinese soldiers rushed to go to the front line. It was completely different from the trembling and helpless expressions of the American soldiers when they mentioned the island landing battle. Song Xilian, Commander of the Amphibious Marine Force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, met with them to hear their specific tactical plans and arrangements. %&*";

After all, the purpose of attacking Iwo Jima is to allow the b29d super sky fortress to install more bombs to carry out more violent air strikes on the Japanese mainland, completely destroying all the Japanese military production capacity and their will to resist. Fei's words are to kill all the Japanese, and do everything possible to kill all the Japanese. Only extermination-style casualties will make the Japanese completely give up resistance.

Before Forrestal went to Saipan for an inspection, he had a two-hour meeting with Marshall, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and President Roosevelt. The decisive battle is conceived physically, and within this conceived plan, China will be the most steadfast friend of the United States, because once the disputes between China and the Soviets in the Far East defeat the Japanese and Germans in the future, the relationship between China and the Soviet Union will change. To be more subtle, the extremely arrogant Stalin would never sit back and watch the Soviet Union lose such an important barrier in the Far East from his grasp. %&*";

Therefore, how to win over China, which can contain the Soviet Union in international strategy, is a problem worth studying for the Americans. Gao Fei is building industries in the Northeast, manufacturing alloy steel, and designing new tanks and fighter jets so that Americans can There is a refreshing feeling that a large number of Chinese students and experts studying in the United States have returned to Northeast China to invest in comprehensive development and construction. This is also acquiesced and supported by the US government. Americans do not have the concept of so-called allies. In the eyes of Americans There are only benefits, just like the Cairo Conference in history, China has value for use, so it has repeatedly promised that China will lose its value for use, and will sell China out at the Yalta Conference without hesitation.

Gao Fei checked the battle plan reported by Song Xilian in the headquarters of the Chinese Youth Army in Changchun. Gao Fei was quite satisfied with Song Xilian's agreement to use poison gas as the main means of attack. It caused heavy casualties to the U.S. landing troops.Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 941

However, there are still three days before the new year, that is, three days later, the Iwo Jima landing battle is about to start. For this purpose, Gao Fei prepared [-] rounds of shells and organized the four newly formed heavy artillery divisions and two rocket artillery divisions of the Chinese Youth Army. Get up, deploy them all on the border between China and North Korea, and prepare to send a cordial New Year greeting to the Japanese across the Yalu River on New Year’s Eve, so that the Japanese who are already too poor to eat and wear pants can experience the deep friendship of the Chinese people. The old people buried their heads and forgot to dig holes, and the Chinese people have not forgotten them, the groundhogs of the Yamato nation.

On January 1944, 1, under the command of Rear Admiral Brandy, the U.S. landing fire protection formation concentrated a fire support formation consisting of six battleships, sixteen escort aircraft carriers, ten cruisers, and 1 destroyers to leave Saipan. The island went to Iwo Jima, provided fire cover for the landing force, and attacked the Japanese fortifications on Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima.

Before the strike formation meeting, the b29d super sky fortress bomber group stationed on Saipan Island of the US military dispatched 390 bombers to carry out the first air bombing on Iwo Jima. The second wave of more than 260 b17 medium bombers and b24 medium bombers will use napalm incendiary bombs to attack the Japanese fortifications on Iwo Jima again.

However, under the command of the Japanese garrison commander Su Lin, most of the bunkers of the Japanese army were built with a second-layer fire compartment, equipped with mobile supplementary troops and spare weapons. Even if the bunker fortifications were destroyed, they could quickly be reorganized Although the artillery fire and bombing of the U.S. military were extremely violent, the Japanese army suffered minor losses due to their solid underground fortifications.

The officers and soldiers of the Chinese Expeditionary Force amphibious landing operations drank the sake captured by the Japanese army on Saipan, ate the dried beef and dried fish transported by the US military, and watched the roaring artillery fire of the battleships. What is there to resist?On the U.S. military side, Turner was also very happy that the amphibious landing force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force did not insist on the ten-day shelling, and the Chinese soldiers seemed eager to try.

Iwo Jima was almost completely submerged by the gunpowder smoke from the U.S. military’s fierce ground-to-air firepower bombardment. The Japanese troops defending could only hide in the tunnels and could not move. Thousands of firepower points have been built, especially the observation post on the top of the mountain, which overlooks the entire east coast from a high position and can accurately guide and correct the shooting of deep artillery fire.

At the same time, in order to keep Iwo Jima, a crucial point in the absolute defense circle, the Japanese navy invested all the remaining warships. The Japanese and allied forces invested in a surface fleet force with a gross tonnage of more than 200 million tons. The largest naval decisive battle in human history.

A total of 47 aircraft carriers, 31 battleships, 52 cruisers, and 220 seven destroyers were invested in Japan, the United States, and China, and the Japanese army dispatched more than 20 combat aircraft from the army and navy to participate in the battle. On the other hand, the Allied Forces invested in the Seventh Air Force, the Tenth Air Force, the No.[-] Air Force, and the China-US Joint Air Force, the Chinese Air Force, and the Chinese Expeditionary Army Navy Escort Aircraft Carrier Formation, including naval and army shore-based combat aircraft. There are more than [-] aircraft, both in terms of quantity and quality, and even the level of pilot training far exceeds that of Japan.

It can be said that after the Allied forces captured Saipan, the Imperial Japanese Navy was already at a disadvantage. However, after losing battles in Saipan and the Mariana Islands, the Japanese have realized that if they lose again For the Philippines or Taiwan, the lifeline of the southern line of the Great Japanese Empire to send resources to the mainland will be cut off, and the connection with North Korea and the mainland in Southeast Asia will be cut off.
