Infinite space for American dramas
Chapter 43 - Fortress - God's Light
"No!" Chekov shook his head: "You can't put your eggs in the same basket, especially on such a World War II battlefield with heavy artillery fire! The reason why Peleliu Island is famous is that it was the site where both Japan and the United States suffered casualties during World War II.
There is no battlefield with the highest rate of death. A full 15,000 American soldiers were killed or injured on Peleliu Island! The Japanese artillery fire or the sniper killing of the R team may lead to the death of the protagonist of the plot. We must protect both at the same time, any
No one can relax!"
Kirk nodded: "I agree with Boss Chekov. The more dangerous it is, the more we must protect the protagonist. If they all die, our main mission will fail. Then, our team will join the Army's First Division,
Responsible for protecting Eugene Sledge. The Sea Emperor Regiment will join the 1st Marine Division to protect Robert Leckie. Let’s split up!"
The lieutenant colonel nodded: "I hope you can continue to perform bravely, and I can have the honor to award you the medal again. Now you can disband. Our Pacific Fleet is speeding to the Palau Islands, with the goal of attacking Peleliu Island.
In about an hour, we will launch a general attack from the sea, land and air. The order given to us by the headquarters is to capture this island of extremely high strategic value within 4 days. I wish you good luck, gentlemen! Kick the Japanese hard.
Ass!"
The lieutenant colonel left the battleship, took a small boat, and returned to the flagship.
Crescent Moon and Wang Han posted a map of Peleliu Island to the team at the same time and gave tactical explanations.
"The instructor of the US military just mentioned the Japanese defense in vague terms, which fully shows that the US military did not conduct a detailed investigation of the Japanese army's intelligence and was full of carelessness in underestimating the enemy. This is one of the reasons for the disastrous defeat of the US military in this battle," Wang Han said.
: "According to history and plot, the Battle of Peleliu Island is known as the most tragic battle on the Pacific battlefield."
"The Japanese army has a very strong force on the island. The 14th Division Infantry Regiment's 2nd Regiment has three thousand elite infantry as its core. There is also the 14th Division's 15th Regiment's 3rd Battalion's 1,000 reserve troops. The 14th Division is
The main battle division that has just been transferred back from China has rich combat experience and a complete organization. It is not comparable to those empty-frame divisions that scare people. In addition, there is also the 1st Squadron of the 1st Maritime Mobile Brigade Transport Team.
250 people, 685 people of the 346th Independent Infantry Group. In the Navy, in addition to 2220 naval air base personnel, there are 400 people of the 45th Naval Guard, 500 people of the Navy Air Defense Team. Navy Korean Labor Camp Team
Around 2,200. The total number of Japanese troops on Peleliu Island is about 10,000. They are equipped with 5,000 rifles, 200 light machine guns, 58 heavy machine guns - 200 various mountain guns, infantry guns, mortars, and machine guns. The island
It is even equipped with 16 Type 95 light tanks! This island is not at all an empty island as the US military imagined, but a highly armed and heavily fortified fortress!"
Mengyue continued to add: "In addition to the strength of the army, the Japanese commander Shuo Nakagawa to be assassinated this time is also an extremely talented commander. He has learned from the failed experiences of the Solomon Islands, Marshall Islands and Mariana Islands.
Summarized a brand new anti-amphibious island defense plan. The early beach perimeter was abandoned.
The defensive and reckless "Long Live Charge" adopted a honeycomb system that complicated the island's terrain to construct an inner island defense chain, turning a blind attack into a continuous war of attrition against the U.S. military. He even took advantage of the rugged terrain,
A complex defense system composed of reinforced bunkers, caves, and tunnels was built.”
In the team channel, an island model similar to a 3D projection appeared, with the coast, foothills, caves, and underground bunkers clearly displayed. Crescent Moon continued to explain: "The main defensive fortifications of the Japanese army are located at the commanding heights of Peleliu Island - An.
Mu Blog Mountain. That is a complete
A small mountain composed of hills and cliffs. From the top of the mountain, you can overlook most of the island, including the airport on the south side of the island. There are more than 500 limestone caves on the mountain, and there are passages connecting each other. Most of these caves are mines.
Then it was used by the Japanese army and built as a defense
Fortifications - Engineers installed sliding armored iron doors at the entrance of the cave to set up cannons and machine guns. At the same time, the Japanese army also placed 81mm and mortars, 20mm twin machine guns, and anti-tank and anti-aircraft equipment at other fortifications on the mountain.
Team. To defend against flame jets
weapons and grenades, and the entrance passages to the caves where the Japanese troops were stationed were all on upward slopes. These caves and bunkers formed a huge defense system throughout the central area, which was very conducive to the Japanese army's tactical retreat and reoccupation of these areas, and was very good
This greatly consolidated the Japanese defense line."
"Nakagawa Shunan did not forget to take full advantage of the terrain on the beach. There is a 9.1-meter-high promontory at the northern end of Peleliu Island, which just overlooks the landing beach below - this place was later called "The Point" by the US military, that is,
The second main mission we want to complete. On this small promontory, the Japanese army set up a 47mm anti-tank gun and 6 2
0mm twin-link machine gun and blocked the entrance, leaving only a narrow gap for the machine gun mouth. The Japanese army also built the same fortification on another similar terrain 3 kilometers away. At the same time, the Japanese army also buried the entire beach.
Thousands of landmines and heavy artillery shells were constructed, with modified fuses that would explode whenever a person or armored vehicle walked over them.
In the end, the Japanese army left a large group on the beach to resist the landing US troops, but in fact their main job was to slow down the landing speed of the US troops and lead them to the Japanese defenses on the island."
Xiaopang took a breath of air: "This is not an island. This is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den! Don't forget, there are also those bastards who are entrenched on the island."
"But" Kirk opened his eyes: "There is a so-called opportunity in a crisis. If we can make good use of the U.S. military's strength, we can also effectively weaken the advantages of the R team and blast them into rubbish."
"How to take advantage of the situation?" Mengyue asked: "You know, the current plot of the Pacific battlefield has been greatly changed, and the Japanese army has occupied a favorable situation. The main force of the combined fleet still exists, and the Japanese army's momentum of swallowing thousands of miles at the beginning of the war is still there. This shell
The external traffic of Liliu Island has not been interrupted. The Japanese army can replenish troops and manpower to the island at any time! It can even encircle and cut off the sea traffic of the US military attacking the island! This is the biggest difference between the plot and history!"
Everyone was silent.
In history and the plot of "Pacific War", in 1944, the U.S. military had destroyed the main force of the Japanese combined fleet through a series of naval battles such as the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Mariana. It cut the Japanese forces on the Pacific Islands into pieces that were unable to reach each other.
Then, they adopted leap-frog tactics, bypassing strongholds with no strategic value, attacking weak links in Japanese defense in a roundabout way, and greatly accelerating the pace of attacking the Japanese homeland. In a word, the Americans achieved absolute superiority in land, sea and air.
But in this world that has been painstakingly managed by the R team and greatly changed the plot, the Japanese army has not been injured at all, and has gained a great advantage. Not only is the main force of the Japanese combined fleet still there, but for Kirk stealing the cipher machine and the password
Even Yamamoto Isoroku cannot die!
You can imagine how difficult it is to rashly attack the opponent's densely defended and painstakingly built solid fortress without cutting off the opponent's sea, land and air supply lines.
Even if the two teams have masters of conspiracy, there is no use for it. Because in one hour, the US military will start a general attack. This is a plot stipulation. There is no time and no trump card. How can history be changed?
Kirk looked at the Bronze Star Medal in his hand and smiled slightly: "The R team has worked hard and the advantages are indeed obvious. But to say that we are facing a desperate situation, I don't think it is necessary. First of all, the space does not want us to die."
Everyone's spirits were shaken.
Chekov asked: "What other ideas do you have?"
Kirk smiled: "After R used [Duel Golden Gloves] to change the mission difficulty to team combat mode, and stipulated harsh conditions for failure of the main mission to be wiped out, and failure of the team battle to be wiped out, Space did two things. One was to mediate,
Provide a 24-hour ceasefire period. The second is to adjust the difficulty of the task. The main
The online mission penalty was changed to paying a fine. This is equivalent to abolishing the [Duel Golden Gloves] of the r team! From the perspective of space, the r team used the [Duel Golden Gloves] and has crippled the Sea Emperor Regiment. It is enough. It is also greedy.
It’s not enough to kill two birds with one stone and solve our two teams, which exceeds the bottom line of space tolerance.”
Chekov said impatiently: "What does that mean?"
Kirk smiled: "In other words, even if we fail this mission, we will only have to pay 300 large crystal stones. The total fine is up to 60 million. Can our two teams not afford it?"
Xiaopang's eyes lit up: "That's right! The rules of space are to let us go!"
Kirk nodded: "Indeed, we must first break through the inertia of thinking that we must complete the main mission and think about the problem from another angle. Since space allows us not to complete the main mission, we must make full use of this advantage. For us, the main mission is completed
No, it doesn’t matter, the biggest enemy is still the R Team, which is more powerful than us! We can’t just rush to the beach and let the Japanese artillery, machine guns, tanks and R Team shooters kill us!"
"Therefore," he revealed a sinister smile: "We must make good use of these 60 days to weaken the strength of Team R to the greatest extent."
"But in one hour, the US military will launch a general attack!" Chekov said: "If once we land, artillery fire flies everywhere, and the two protagonists die in battle, why don't we obediently pay 60 million survival points and get back to space?
?”
He chuckled: "I don't feel bad about the money. It's just that I suffered a loss for no reason and was given an advantage over Team R, which makes me very unhappy."
Kirk nodded and said: "That's true. The first thing we have to do is to get the US military to give up this unintended general attack and use their energy where it's most beneficial to us!"
"What's the best place for us?" Chekov asked.
"The most advantageous thing?" Kirk pointed at the map and said: "It is to make the U.S. military realize that the Japanese troops on the island are not silver pewter gun heads at all, but real elite main force. Let the U.S. military give up their illusions and mobilize the army.
blockade by sea and air
Island, and provide the most powerful troops and fire support. Those who die on the beach can be groups of US soldiers, but they must not be our members. We must use an endless sea of US soldiers to rush down this island, saying
Maybe there’s also Team R!”
"That's good!" Sulexi nodded. After the test of group destruction, he had an unspeakable fear of group destruction. Kirk's idea of borrowing the power of the US military to reduce team casualties suited him best.
"Why?" Chekov asked.
"This is the medal we got." Kirk held the Bronze Star Medal in his hand.
"C-level fire or artillery support? Three elite Marine Corps soldiers?" Chekov laughed loudly: "C-level fire support, with a maximum of three American bombers dropping a dozen bombs.
The three Marines are good helpers, but unfortunately a few bullets can kill them on the battlefield."
"But you must not have noticed two things." Kirk smiled: "First, the one who won the Bronze Star Medal this time is me, and Natasha from your team! There are names engraved on it."
He picked up the Bronze Star Medal, and sure enough, his name was engraved on it. Natasha took out her own medal and also had her name engraved on it.
"What does this mean?" The driver was confused.
"This shows" Crescent Moon came to her senses: "Each of us can receive these medals from the US military headquarters!"
"I took the time to inquire about this medal system." Kirk chuckled: "If you have a personal contribution of more than a thousand points, you will get the Bronze Star Medal, a C-level artillery fire or 3 elite marine followers. 5,000 points, you will get the Silver Star Medal.
, can be exchanged for one C+ level artillery fire or 5 elite marine followers. 10000 points, get the Gold Star Medal. B- level one artillery fire.
10 elite marine followers. Their contribution value is over 10,000. And they have lost a limb. They have received the Purple Heart Medal, b+ artillery fire once. 15 elite marine followers. Over 50,000, they have received the Congressional Medal, a- artillery fire once, 20
Elite SEALs. Over 100,000, Medal of Honor, A+ gunfire once, 30 elite SEALs.”
"The best thing is that medals can be upgraded." Kirk pointed to the two groups of reincarnators present: "There are 28 of us. If each of us gets a medal of honor, we can call 28 A+ artillery strikes. Each
The level of artillery fire is increased compared to the previous level.
Add 30% firepower. A+ level artillery fire. You can dispatch 12 heavy bombers at one time, or fleet artillery salvo once! If exchanged for US soldiers, 30 SEALs will join, and 28 people are equal to 840 SEALs!
"
"These forces, in the hands of the US military, are not very powerful," Kirk concluded: "But in our hands, used in the right places, they are enough to make the R team pay a heavy price. The R team has used Japanese forces twice before.
To deal with us, I believe we will use merit points to redeem them."
"What exactly should be done?" Chekov asked.
Kirk suddenly opened his eyes: "We are going to make the first landing of the US military fail miserably! Not only will it be defeated, but it will be extremely miserable, even worse than in the plot! The worse they fail, the better prepared they will be for the next attack.
The more time you give us to increase our contribution points. Anyway, we have one month to capture Peleliu Island. In the last hour of the last day, we will be considered a victory if we complete the task."
"But we still have to protect the two protagonists of the plot?" Xiaopang asked: "If we don't take action, will they die?"
Wang Han said: "Didn't we divide our forces? One team is watching over one protagonist. Is there any way that can't slow them down, including illusions, control, and persuasion? In short, if you don't go to the most dangerous place, you won't die."
Only then did everyone understand the full extent of Kirk's plan.
Chekov stood up: "So be it. In this first wave of general attack, we did not work hard, which made the US military's failure even more violent."
Just at this time, a space prompt sounded: "The main mission [Gunshots on Peleliu Island] will start in 10 minutes."
"Contractor No. 04444, you have chosen to join the First Division of the Army and participate in this battle with the heaviest casualties in the Pacific battlefield."
"You must rush to the landing ship immediately and follow the landing force of the Army's First Division to land on the west coast of Peleliu Island."
At this time, 11 aircraft carriers in the U.S. fleet took off 400 carrier-based aircraft, and together with the Army heavy bombers taking off from the Mariana Islands, they began to bombard Periho Island indiscriminately. The entire sky was filled with bombers diving.
sharp
Whistling sound. On the sea surface of Perio Island, 3 U.S. battleships, 25 cruisers, and 30 destroyers launched a fierce bombardment on Perii Island and prepared firepower. The fierce bombardment caused the entire island to be completely covered with flames.
Shrouded in black smoke.
Under the cover of artillery bombardment, the US Navy's minesweeper drove to a place less than 1 kilometer away from the shore of Perio Island to conduct minesweeping and other operations.
At this time, it was 6:15 a.m., and under the faint morning light, the US landing troops were divided into two groups.
Under the cover of fierce naval gunfire, the landing force of the 1st Navy Division rushed to the beach on the west coast of Perisio Island in amphibious combat vehicles and landing craft. Chekov of the Sea Emperor Regiment led more than 20 reincarnations, following the 1st Navy Division.
Robert Leckie's 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division boarded the landing ship together and rushed to the beach where the Japanese army was heavily fortified.
The 1st Marine Division of the US Army is scheduled to land on the west coast and take 2-3 days to control the island. Kirk's team is in this division.
When the soldiers of the 1st Marine Division boarded the amphibious armored vehicle, everyone was in a relaxed mood, talking and laughing.
