Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 2472 Respect for life or greed for life and fear of death
The attack came and went quickly, and there was no Japanese army after the explosion, which made Wynn heaved a sigh of relief while rushing to humiliate him.If the Japanese army took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack, he could not imagine what would happen.In order to establish this landing field, the Chinese and French sacrificed nearly 2000 people. Now if it is recaptured by the Japanese, who will admit this responsibility?The John Regiment of more than [-] people did not have a lot of casualties, only more than [-] people were killed or injured, but considering that all the tanks and armored vehicles were left behind, this loss was huge.This is still secondary, the key is that after this battle, the commander of the John Regiment was killed, and the remaining officers and soldiers also looked distraught, which means that the regiment has actually lost the ability to continue fighting.In the first charge, he handed over a regiment, but he didn't even see the enemy's shadow. Wynn turned his head and glanced at the Huangdi aircraft carrier, and suddenly felt an unusually heavy feeling in his heart-what should we do next?Do you want to ask for a Chinese or a Frenchman?That is not a matter of losing face, but that the United States may lose its current position among the Allied forces. "Shit! Why did it become like this?" Wynn rubbed his nose fiercely, and said in his heart that for the sake of beauty, he worked hard!Then he had to call the Marine Corps Headquarters and ask Bai Liusu for fire support again.

Bai Liusu didn't respond to any request this time: "General Wynn, before we find the traces of the Japanese army, is air fire support useful? Or, we can directly level the Wuming Highland? But in that case, what will happen in the next battle? You should know Wuming The significance of the high ground to us. General Wynn, if you can't do it, then withdraw, I will let Wang Huo's people go up!"

Wynn's face was flushed red, and he cursed angrily in his heart, "shit! shit!" He said slowly, "the Japanese built underground fortifications. We don't have heavy weapons to tear open the underground fortifications. We just need to tear one open for us." Kick, we can kill the little devil!"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"I, I will trust you again. You all retreat to a safe area!"

The mobile fleet of the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet and other ships equipped with large naval guns were already lined up and ready for bombardment. After obtaining Chen Shichang's consent, Bai Liusu personally commanded these ships to bombard the unnamed highland and surrounding areas.This round of shelling lasted for half an hour, and the altitude of the unnamed highland was lowered by no less than three meters.After the shelling stopped, Bai Liusu said to Wynn: "General Wynn, one-third of the ammunition stored in the fleet has been consumed. I hope you can take down the unnamed highland before dark. If you can't, I'm sorry. I can only let Wang Huo and Steve's people go."

Wang Huohu is a division commander of the Chinese Marine Corps, and Steve is the supreme commander of the French Restoration Army following the Huangdi aircraft carrier fleet. Both of them have enthusiastically asked for a battle before, hoping that the unit will take on the vanguard mission.Wynn knew this. He heard what Bai Liusu said, and he also knew that if he couldn't win it in the future, he would have no face to take the vanguard position again.Gathering all the school-level officers together, he said to everyone with a stern face: "Gentlemen, I think you all know that our inaction in Australia has aroused strong dissatisfaction from the President and the people in the country. Before coming, General MacArthur specially Talk to me, he said that the government has invested a lot of money for the Pacific Ocean and Australia, now is the time for us to return a victory. If I can't give him a victory, then Guadalcanal Island will be the end of my military career Point. So I want to say yes to you, either win or stay in Guadalcanal forever! We Americans can't afford to lose, but the premise is that we try our best, and we have done our best for the honor of the soldiers. Your efforts... General Bai Liusu just gave me an ultimatum, requiring me to take down the unnamed highland before dark. Now, follow the order, one regiment after another. Don't worry, if none of you can win, finally And me!" Speaking of "I'm still there in the end", Wynn patted his chest with his hands and said loudly: "Even if we fight to the last person, we will never say defeat!"

It is even more unacceptable to suffer heavy casualties without seeing the shadow of the enemy than to be defeated face to face.But now listening to Wynn's tone, he is ready to fight. "Even if we fight to the last person", this is both Wynn's attitude and his determination.

The same enemy, why is it that the army of students can be destroyed when confronted, but the U.S. military is struggling to fight against it.MacArthur and Wynn have also discussed this issue in depth.They used to think that it was caused by the gap in equipment, tactics, Americans don't think that their tactical literacy and command level are worse than the Chinese.Later, after witnessing too many failures of the U.S.-Australian coalition forces and the victories of the student army, they finally admitted that they were defeated by the fact that their fighting will was not as good as that of the student army.To put it bluntly, American soldiers are not as fearless as Chinese soldiers.The understanding of the right to life is different, or the attitude towards life is different. Although Americans are not afraid of sacrifice, they pursue meaningful sacrifice more.What they don't know is that it's all too easy to confuse the so-called meaningful sacrifice with the avoidance of sacrifice.Therefore, respecting life often becomes an excuse for them to avoid tough and tragic battles.

According to the practice of the armies of all countries in the world, no matter whether they win or lose a war, they will sum up their experience afterwards.Once, the Americans concluded that the main reason for the repeated defeats against Japan was the Japanese attitude of disregarding life, coupled with the fact that they had enough South Asian indigenous cannon fodder.Therefore, "our commander does not want to make unnecessary sacrifices" has become an excuse to shirk responsibility.But they don't think, from the perspective of respecting life, Americans must be superior to South Asian natives and Japanese?

Finally, in the face of a large number of cruel facts, MacArthur had to admit: Compared with Chinese soldiers, American soldiers are indeed lacking in bravery and fearlessness.Then he looked for the reason, thinking that maybe it was because they were not fighting in the local area, and the soldiers had a low sense of national mission, which caused them to worry about gains and losses on the battlefield and refused to fight to the death.

The reason is found, but how to improve it has become a problem.After all, some things in the depths of a person's soul cannot be changed overnight.From the perspective of national dignity and morale, MacArthur was unwilling to admit that the reason why they could not defeat the Japanese was because the soldiers "respected life"-to put it nicely, they respected life, but who can say that they were not greedy for life and afraid of death? Woolen cloth?
As MacArthur's favorite student, Wynn was aware of the troubles the teacher was facing in this area, and for a time he actively helped to make suggestions and wanted to help solve this problem.But now, under Bai Liusu's ultimatum, in the face of national dignity, he no longer takes the meek theoretical route, and decides to adopt a rough strategy!Perhaps in his mind, American soldiers are not inferior to soldiers from any country in terms of not fearing death!
Is the truth really like this?
