Chapter 31 The Battle of Guadalcanal Island

"It seems that the Americans are going to fight with the Japanese on Guadao!"

Nancy Green, who was in charge of European intelligence, came to Tang Yunyang. At this time, in order to comfort this little fairy who was rushing around the world, Tang Yunyang was often willing to accompany him to Truke Naval Base for a vacation if the situation permitted.

This place is now a busy military port. With the 15-year operation of the Federation of China, the land area has expanded 10 times. The use of garbage reclamation means cannot be said to be cheap, but the expansion of this island and its strategic location have undoubtedly brought huge benefits to the Federation of China.

For the time being, this military port rental group is used by the Second Navy Fleet of Japan, and Truk Atoll has expanded more than 10 times larger than in the past. Now, if the Truk Atoll looks from the sky, you will find that the so-called military port looks like a moon that is about to be full moon.

The lake, which acts as a military port in the middle, is still there, but there are more mooring points. The reefs on the seabed were completely removed. The shore, which was like a full moon, has now widened to a width of 100 kilometers. The two large airports can park all aircraft, including fighter jets and airships, and the civilian one is used to send tourists to the nearby Paradise Island. If it were wartime, it would naturally be a reserve military airport.

Truk Atoll, which was "made" according to the drawings using garbage caissons, not only has a comprehensive submarine-launched long-range torpedo system, but also has long-range anti-ship missiles completely controlled by the control center installed on the shore.

If Truke used to be unable to see through it because of military use, then even if he lets him in, he will be unable to observe it at all.

The defense methods here are similar to those in Area 51. Equipment including shore defense heavy weapons and anti-aircraft guns were all placed in special weapons rooms. When not in use, they were completely underground. In the so-called "garbage cement caissons", many of them were components of the underground military base on Truk Island at that time. With the expansion of the island, the entire underground includes garrisons, garrisons, warehouses and complete submarine bases have been completed.

The wide shore is similar to other territories of the Chinese Federation, and the tall wind turbines provide clean and nearly infinite power to the entire island. The desalination plant provides enough fresh water, which not only supplies the nearby Paradise Island, but also supplies the needs of the entire Japanese Navy Second Fleet.

Nancy Green, who was driving the old-fashioned "Rose" biplane, had long blonde hair flying in the air. She still looked full of youthful beauty with sunglasses. The smile on her red lips showed that she was very satisfied with Tang Yunyang's care.

Although this was just an ambiguous and indulgent afternoon after inspecting the military base, for Nancy Green, he seemed to prefer such a taste of life.

Originally, Tang Yunyang pursued Nancy again. After Green succeeded, he solemnly proposed to marry, but who would have thought that he, who was originally confident, would get such an answer.

"Do you want to tie me to your side like Elena and the others? Don't you feel that your possessiveness is so strong that I'm a little scared! So I would rather you be my lover. If I'm not satisfied, maybe I'll consider changing you!"

Tang Yunyang didn't expect this to be the result at all, so he had no choice but to indulge her to continue to enjoy the ambiguous relationship she liked. But no matter what, in the clear weather, flying a plane, looking down at the rippling sea, and watching the indulgent sandbank of love get closer and closer, all Tang Yunyang was relieved of the tense, busy and stressful life of the wartime president.

"Hey, I'm going to dive!"

With the long blonde hair blown by the wind, Nancy Green's shouts came. Tang Yunyang looked down from the side of the fuselage. The beach with only a few coconut trees still looked so white and the sea water was still so blue.

"No wonder so many people like to live on the island. I really hope this pleasing life can last longer!"

That being said, the words Nancy Green told him just before boarding the plane, "It seems that the Americans and the Japanese are going to fight on Gua Island!" He still had to consider the future of the Pacific War.

The Japanese First Fleet, which undoubtedly suffered serious losses, will not have the strength to stop the Americans from attacking the Pacific Ocean for the time being. The Americans undoubtedly intend to take this opportunity to compete with the Japanese on Gua Island, but this time the Gua Island battle will have more bloody scenes.

The reason is that this time, the defenders on Guadao had very strong strength.

Just as Tang Yunyang and Nancy Merlin were flying over their "ambiguous sandbar", the Japanese Ono Division led by Commander Ichiro Ono had already entered Guadacanal Island. In addition to the infantry team that needed to rely on their legs to reach their defense positions, the soft airship on the transport ship was acting as a crane, transferring heavy equipment and personnel to those strategic points.

This is a garrison division with a population of up to 35,000, and also includes an engineer regiment, a heavy artillery regiment and a jungle regiment from Vietnam.

The airport is the core of the entire defensive operation. The heavy artillery that cannot be maneuvered in the jungle is now being transported to their positions by airships. As the 203mm self-propelled heavy artillery eliminated by the Chinese Federation, the Japanese army has special preferences.

When cooperating with the combat of the garrison division, this kind of artillery will be assigned to some sturdy artillery barriers that cannot be climbed and are strongly protected on the high ground. They rely on cableways hidden in the jungle to supplement their supplies. Building a strong artillery barrier with ammunition depots and military garrison holes for them is the main task of the engineering regiment.

Fortunately, those cement components are "fast front" and modular. You only need to clear out enough sites, and then use excavators, bulldozers and other mechanisms to dig out the appropriate gun positions. Then, assembled cement plates are installed. As for the defense of camouflage nets and those multiple sandbags, the artillery soldiers naturally have to do it themselves.

There is nothing to say about the infantry fronts, but they are bunker groups composed of "fast fronts" and underground tunnels. Unfortunately, because the jungles on Guadao are too dense, these bunker groups have to form isolated strongholds.

As for the construction of the airport, there is nothing more than a standard airport appearance. The defense system composed of bunker groups protects up to 700 combat aircraft of various types, including razor rotor attack aircraft. The engineering regiment that is under construction will be directed to the entire airport in the future. They will not evacuate here until the second garrison division arrives and completes the defense system according to the plan.

If the US military wants to attack this island, the first thing it needs to do is to destroy these fighter jets. Otherwise, this time the First Marine Division (Sea Magician) will not be so easy to capture this island.

The information on the construction of an airport on Guadao has attracted the attention of the US military's decision-makers.

If Guadalam Airport is completed, the combat radius of Japanese aircraft will be expanded rapidly. The aircraft taking off from this airport can reach the front lines of Saint Espiritu, Efate Island, and New Caledonia, seriously threatening the maritime transportation line from the United States to Australia.

Therefore, the US military decided to counterattack in the Pacific, starting with the attack on Guadalene occupied by Japan. After half a month of dispute with the country over the war plan, MacArthur began to prepare for the battle. The United States mobilized troops and weapons to the South Pacific, built ships, aircraft, reserve equipment and supplies, and built sea and air bases in New Caledonia and New Hebrides.

The US military was about to counterattack here, and Maji, who was trapped on the island, and his partner Niya did not know. They lost their observation point during their last escape and had to hide in the hiding place deep in the woods.

There were some reserved food and supplies there, so that they could persist before the US military counterattack. They went out quietly every night to reconnaise the Japanese's defense.

When Maji went out to scout, Kaya practiced her ability to be a wife at home.

Their hiding place is located in a wooden house deep in the jungle. The wooden house built on high is much more hygienic than the ground. The screens also block mosquitoes from the outside. As for the ubiquitous mice, it is not difficult for them, such as the descendants of Australian natives and the coast guard posts trained in jungle survival.

On the contrary, these little guys who went on one after another provided them with quite good food supplements. The only thing that made Kaya a little worried was that although she and Maji could hide among the indigenous people in Guadalam, according to their reconnaissance, the Japanese seemed to have no good feelings for those indigenous people, and they sometimes forced them to requisition them to do some physical work for them.

Of course, this is not a problem. Maji has also intervened in the Japanese airport for reconnaissance, and the intelligence was sent to the US military through the radio station.
