Chapter 390: The Great Rescue of Saipan in Bloodshed I


The Allied landing fleet that had not broken the wind and waves had five white dragons on the sea, and only a few small Yihang let out a long breath after drinking a few bottles of beer.

Finally had a feeling of pushing away the dark clouds and seeing the sun, what reassured him was that Liang Chao's guy was still alive, although the Bison seaplane brought the radio, but the communication still could not be restored, Song Yuhang deliberately concluded that there must be a huge jamming station on Saipan Island that is as small as Longling in Myanmar at work, due to the heroic struggle of the landing force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the Japanese jamming station was forced to be exposed in advance.

When Song Yuhang witnessed it, there was still black smoke.

It was only when a big hole was broken in the deck of the New Enterprise that he realized the tragedy of the so-called Mariana Sea Battle, and the fact that there were two or three carrier-based aircraft with kittens on the deck showed that the losses of the American army were not light.

Song Yuhang didn't ask about the losses of the U.S. fleet in Turner, which was still good-looking, nor did he ask about the losses of the Japanese army, that battle report didn't mean much to him at all, in other words, Song Yuhang only cared about what he could, and within his purview, he still had some understanding of how much to worry about and not please, but from the fact that Song Yuhang was able to change from as many as 37 fire support ships to 21, I am afraid that the losses of American ships should be on par with the Japanese army.

When the US aircraft group with the main force of the fierce force once again rushed to Saipan, Song Yuhang had already begun to gear up, including two marine divisions are also sharpening their knives, they want to prove to the Ministry of Defense that they are no worse than the Chinese, of course, the Chinese expeditionary force is responsible for all the landing combat tasks They are welcomed with both hands, and the US military has recently been rumored internally that it may conduct a series of landing operations in Italy, compared with the Japanese in Saipan.

Beautiful Sicily, weak Italian soldiers, a handful of Italian beauties, it was a paradise for marines.

However, the U.S. bombing of Saipan was hampered, and returning reconnaissance planes reported that the Japanese had placed a large number of U.S. 27th Infantry Division prisoners around important targets, and that if the bombing were carried out, these U.S. prisoners of war would be the first to be killed.

More than 3,000 American officers and men, Turner and Spruance, did not dare to give this order, and even Nimitz, who had always been resolute, had to tell General Marshall.

After Marshall reported to the president, Roosevelt said that there will be sacrifices in war, but the proportion of this sacrifice should be within the range that we can accept, and the US government will never compromise with any enemy, even if it pays another blood, it will completely eliminate the evil forces, and the United States is estimated by God.

Marshall hated Roosevelt's ambiguous words so much that he was a soldier, and the most unacceptable thing was this kind of ambiguous order, Roosevelt's words in his understanding were that he could ignore these prisoners of war if necessary, but he had to make an appearance and rescue some of them, Saipanu had to fight, and the prisoners of war had to be saved, it depended on God's will.

What made Marshall most depressed was the 27th Infantry Division of the US Army, this damn unlucky army, damn Smith, why he couldn't insist on resisting like the Chinese which two supplementary regiments of troops were already on the road on the day the 27th Infantry Division surrendered, and the US Army could not sit idly by and watch the number of the 27th Infantry Division disappear.

What to do, what to do, almost all the Americans are asking this little question, and the combat staff of the American army was tormented all afternoon, because they could not come up with an effective solution at all, and the last Kingweis staff officer proposed to use commandos to rescue, and once successful, the Japanese army would definitely transfer the prisoners, and then take this opportunity to bomb and attack.

Kingweis's plan can be described as completely out of the sky, it was forced out, and when most of the plan was planned, Nimitz found out that he did not have a suitable commando team to undertake the rescue mission when it was reported to General Marshall for review.

In the end, Turner thought of Song Yuhang, and he suggested to Nimitz that maybe Song Yuhang had a suitable force to carry out this task.

Nimitz, Turner, Spruance and others found Song Yuhang, who was deploying beachhead support, with great hope, and Song Yuhang, who was born as a special forces in his previous life, faced Turner's so-called King's plan and put forward more than 20 questions in five aspects, such as landing methods, infiltration patterns, rescue support, communications, and retreat plans, and each of these problems accurately hit the weak points of Kingweis's plan.

In the end, Song Yuhang casually threw Jinweis into the sea and said, "I can't let my people take risks because of an assault plan made by elementary school students." ” The faces of Turner and the others were very embarrassed, but Nimitz was very happy, he waved his hand and smiled: "We all listen to you, you can directly transfer whatever you need, Turner and Spruance will fully cooperate with you, the US Navy and Army will be grateful to you, and the mother of those children will also be even more grateful to you."

Nimitz ranked the army behind the navy, Song Yuhang just smiled slightly, it seems that within all the national armies, the battle between the arms and services exists, "Even if the United States has such a strong manufacturing capacity, the arms and services compete for each other After dealing with Song Yuhang, Nimitz finally understood the main reason why the British hated Song Yuhang, because this guy can be called bold, and it is his ability to sit on the ground and raise prices, and the Chinese expeditionary force is directly dispatched by the president.

The status is equivalent to that of the strategic reserve of the Allied forces.

So even if Song Yuhang knocked on the bamboo, he also knocked Roosevelt, and he even had some expectations for Song Yuhang's bamboo Nimitz, so he quickly helped Song Yuhang convey his request to Roosevelt.

Song Yuhang's request was very simple, that is, to send Chinese naval personnel to Calcutta, India, for training, in the hope that the US Government could allocate some transport ships for the use of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and Song Yuhang's reason was that if the Chinese Expeditionary Force fully undertook the task of landing operations, the size of its troops might exceed five formed armies, and it would be very inconvenient for such a scale if it did not even have some support ships.

Nimitz's consideration was the Saipan landing, which lost more than 2,800 sailors due to the landing craft and perched armored transport troops.

This loss is more than the Battle of the Marianas, if the Chinese government can really produce a fleet of naval transport ships and landing craft on its own.

The U.S.

Navy's casualties are bound to be minimized.

As for whether Roosevelt could accede to his request.

Song Yuhang was a little apprehensive, Zhuo actually had a strong coercion in his so-called request, and he didn't say hello to China about this matter, but it was just the reconnaissance company of the special operations brigade that the Americans wanted to use, which made him feel very uncomfortable, so he must also make the Americans not too comfortable.

When Song Yuhang was in China, he had a relationship with Admiral Chen Shaokuan, commander-in-chief of the navy, he vaguely remembered that the middle-aged man who was not tall, but extremely well-dressed, was wearing a very old navy uniform, He Yingqin refused to approve torpedoes because the navy did not have torpedo boats, Chen Shaokuan waved his fist excitedly and said to He Yingqin: "What's the matter, although my navy has become an air force", but without a boat, I will use people to operate torpedoes to hit Japanese ships, I will go up in person, as long as there is one person left in the Chinese navy, We will not be defeated, even if we will all fight to the death.

The spirit of our Chinese navy, which would rather die and resist the war to the end, will live on forever in the world, and in the end, He Yingqin was very ashamed, and the torpedo was approved in the end.

Although the number is insufficient, Chen Shaokuan seems very happy.

Later, when Song Yuhang was in Kunming, he recruited the remnants of a Marine Corps that were scattered.

The navy, which had no warships, really tied itself to torpedoes and drifted down the Yangtze River to attack Japanese ships.

At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the establishment of the navy, the number of ships, the quality of equipment, and the number of officers and men could not be compared with the strength of the Japanese navy, and the two could not be compared with the strength of the Japanese navy, and the total displacement of the navy ships was 10,000 tons, while the ships of medium size and above of the Japanese navy at that time accounted for more than 10,000 tons, and the total number of officers and men of the navy was about 10,000 people, which was only one-sixth of the 70,000 people in the Japanese navy.

In the course of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the navy's operations against the Japanese invasion of China were heroic and tragic.

At that time, the navy was extremely weak, and it fought against the Japanese army, which claimed to have one of the most powerful navies in the world, and the navy was all heroic and tenacious, and many heroic deeds emerged during this period.

During the eight-year all-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Navy made outstanding contributions to the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

However, it was this extremely weak navy that bravely took up the heavy task of defending the Chinese nation and established immortal feats.

Now that he has the opportunity, Song Yuhang naturally wants to help them, and he hopes that one day there will be warships belonging to the Chinese Navy in the firepower formation cluster shelling Tokyo in Tokyo Bay, and they will not be rude.

Since the little devil shelled Nanjing, the capital of China, along the Yangtze River, the Chinese navy should naturally shell his Tokyo as well.

Moreover, this landing suffered from the arrangement of US landing craft and armored personnel carriers.

Therefore, Song Yuhang took the opportunity of the US side asking him to send people to rescue the officers and men of the 27th Infantry Division who had been captured.

A small request to Roosevelt was a fairly reasonable request.

When Nimitz conveyed Song Yuhang's request to Roosevelt, he found that Roosevelt was not surprised at all, and Roosevelt said humorously: "On the contrary, if he does not make any demand, it is really surprising." ” In view of the replenishment of ships, aircraft, and personnel of the Pacific Fleet after the Battle of the Marianas, as well as the output of several major shipyards on the east and west coasts, Roosevelt believed that it would be possible to give the Chinese side a few newly finalized 4,000-ton large multi-purpose destroyers, of course, under the condition that the Chinese side has its own personnel who can pilot and operate to form combat effectiveness.

Nimitz knew that the large multi-purpose destroyers that Roosevelt was referring to were Type 21 destroyers designed and built for the Atlantic escort only according to the latest drawings provided by the British
