Just as the Japanese generally do not understand why the traitors become so excited when they suppress their compatriots, Jiang Dahe and others also generally cannot understand why the Japanese traitors can be so confident and proud of their current status. "If they were really not afraid of death, they would They are obviously a group of cowards, so why can they show such courage at this time? Could it be that the Japanese are really proud of their identity as the Ryukyu National Liberation Army?" Afterwards, Jiang Dahe and his men The brothers have discussed this issue in depth. Of course, this discussion is destined to be fruitless, and in Chen Shaokuan’s words, there is no need for results, “We are soldiers, we just have to fight the war. Political matters have to be considered by the Prime Minister and others. ,Besides, don’t you feel relieved when the Japanese do this?” Of course, this farce can only be solved by Chen Shaokuan. It was already decided that the Ryukyu National Liberation Army would be the main force. From a military point of view, Chen Shaokuan was only worried. Whether the Japanese would really execute the order truthfully, he didn't even consider other things. The Japanese boarded the landing craft and the landing ship and set off grandly. Jiang Dahe looked at the offshore coast that had been silent due to the bombardment of naval guns and missiles. Suddenly The place became lively and the sound of gunfire continued. He picked up the binoculars with mixed emotions and looked over. After a while, a heavy look of confusion appeared on his face.
The battle between the Ryukyu National Liberation Army and the island defenders was quite fierce. The Japanese regarded the Ryukyu Islands as the last barrier for homeland defense. Not only did they transfer an unprecedented large amount of cement and steel bars from the mainland, but they also reorganized the First Guards Division. The regiment was transferred over, and the Japanese were born with the characteristics of gophers. In that time and space, the Osaka Fourth Division, known as the world's most useless division, received an unprecedented award for its performance in civil engineering work. Ishigaki Island , Miyako Island, Okinawa and other places were under the operation of the Japanese army, and the islands were all covered with bunkers. Therefore, although the previous artillery bombardment and missile bombing by the Higashiyama Fleet almost destroyed the defenses of the offshore hell on Ishigaki Island and the offshore floating forts, But it failed to cause much damage to the defenders of Ishigaki Island. For Japan, Ishigaki Island, Miyako Island, and Okinawa are immovable sea aircraft carriers.
The attack of the Ryukyu National Liberation Army did not go smoothly. Although the defenders on Ishigaki Island only had one regiment, they were from the 1st Guards Division. The 1st Guards Division was originally the elite of the Japanese army and suffered a defeat in the Battle of Taiwan. From then on, both the Ministry of War and the division commanders below regarded it as a shame. Under their strict requirements and training from top to bottom, the combat effectiveness of the Guards Division was greatly improved. The Yamato nation has ethnic characteristics. That is, they like to find spiritual support. This is also the fundamental reason why the emperor system is deeply rooted in Japan. In terms of national structure, the Japanese are willing to find a mythical figure to worship. In other aspects, the Japanese also have this habit, so there is the Nagato battleship in front of them. , and later the Yamato aircraft carrier, which are regarded by the Japanese as spiritual sustenance and a symbol of the country's strength. However, the Japanese navy headed by Yamamoto Isoroku were too unsatisfactory and failed to live up to the high expectations of the Japanese again and again. , Japanese talents had to find a new spiritual idol. The Japanese Army people seized this opportunity. At this time, the reorganized Guards Division made its public appearance to Japanese society. Although the Japanese Army people unanimously denied it, everyone in the industry But everyone knows that the Guards Division was reorganized after the mechanized division of the Xuebing Army. The Guards Division, with a mechanization level of up to 70%, is weaker than its mortal enemy Xuebing Army in terms of tanks and self-propelled artillery. A little above, but standing with the traditional Japanese army, it is absolutely outstanding. At a time when the Japanese people's hearts are fluctuating, such a team that shines with metallic light from the inside to the outside appears in front of them. How can they not be "thrilled" ,,
The Nokura Regiment of the 1st Guards Division is stationed on Ishigaki Island. As a three-three regiment, the Nokura Regiment has three mechanized infantry brigades and one self-propelled artillery brigade. Each mechanized infantry brigade has two
A mechanized infantry squadron and a tank squadron were assigned to the 1st Guards Division to defend the Ryukyu Islands. This proposal caused a heated debate in the Japanese military department. The negative side was led by Kanji Ishihara. They believed that the regional characteristics of the Ryukyu Islands determined
The place is not suitable for mechanized operations, so moving the Guards Division to station is a waste of resources; but those who hold a positive opinion use the importance of the Ryukyu Islands and the empire's need for a victory as reasons that non-Guards Divisions are not qualified.
,
The high-level debates have affected the morale of the First Guards Division to some extent. For example, the company commander of the Kurane Regiment, Colonel Kuragen Noo, was full of resistance to the deployment to Ryukyu and believed that mechanized troops such as the First Guards Division should be used.
Giving up the advantage of mobility and fighting a complete defensive battle would allow them to use their own shortcomings to counter the enemy's strong points. On the first day of arriving at Ishigaki Island, he even said harsh words in front of his subordinates, saying: "Those gentlemen in the base camp, they
I only know how to do it on paper, so I think we should let them experience it first."
Although he was reluctant in his heart, but in line with the honor of a soldier, after the garrison on Ishigaki Island became a reality, Kurageno had to make bold statements in order to stabilize the morale of the army, saying: "The Chinese may win in the end, but they
When the blood of a hundred thousand cadets is ready, we, His Majesty the Emperor's most valiant and capable Guards Division, will make them bleed a hundred meters for every meter they advance."
After the Guards Division was reorganized, both the combat quality and equipment of the troops have been greatly improved compared to before. Kurane Noo and others are also more motivated. They think that the only people who can defeat them in China's army are Xuebing.
Army, and even if the student army wants to defeat them, they will definitely pay a bloody price, because this idea is deeply ingrained, so when the enemy charges towards their position, they say "kill, give, give" and other familiar Japanese
When the shouts came out, Kuranenoo was stunned at first, and then became completely angry and even became hysterical.
Just as the Xuebing Army hates the traitor troops more than the Japanese army, the Japanese also hate the Japanese traitor troops more than the Chinese army. Kurane Noo's rank makes him qualified to access some military secrets, so although most Japanese
He didn't know that there was a Japanese puppet army like the Japanese Peace Army, but he knew the situation of the Japanese Peace Army quite well. The vast majority of the Ryukyu National Liberation Army were Japanese. How could Kurane Noo know clearly?
The Japanese immediately sent an order to the entire army through the walkie-talkie: "The Japanese traitors who are attacking us now, gentlemen, the Japanese Empire will never allow Japanese traitors to exist. We must destroy them. We will not take any prisoners in this battle."
