After a whole day of fierce fighting.
The sunset that does not want to end is like being swept away by blood; Kind.
The Chinese Expeditionary Force and the two marine divisions of the US army have broken through the Japanese defense line and penetrated directly into the depth of the Japanese army, and the entire battle line has taken shape, with the two wings protruding and lagging in the middle.
I couldn't keep going, I had to stop.
The pause of the two Marine Divisions of the US Army led to the formation of a large salient in the defensive position of the Japanese Second Light Division, which attacked too quickly, and the Japanese Coastal Defense No. 1 Witch Garrison and the four-pound small brigade of the 1st Blade Division carried out several counterattacks on the 2nd Light Division, and the 2nd Light Division, which was exposed on the left and right flanks, did not stop the offensive and began to stabilize the existing positions and wait for the left and right flanks of the 2nd and 4th Marine Divisions of the US Army to cooperate with the troops in place.
Song Yuhang analyzed that the reason for this is that the Marine Corps is a unit specially formed by the US military to carry out landing operations, and not only has it undergone special training in amphibious warfare, but also its officers understand that landing operations are a battle against the water, and they must be sinister and abnormal.
The key to victory lies in acting quickly and decisively, based on this tactical thinking, its troops pay great attention to the cultivation of combat style and the training of fighting will in their daily training, so the tenacity of the fighting style and the tenacity of the fighting will of the Marine Corps have always been second to none among all the ground forces of the US military.
The later Iwo Jima offensive battle created brilliance in the fierce battle.
All of them are Marines On the other hand, the Army, in peacetime, overemphasized the avoidance of casualties during training, relied too much on artillery support, and encountered Japanese resistance, unlike the Marine Corps, which either attacked bravely.
Either by making a detour, but by stopping and waiting for artillery support, sometimes even a single point of Japanese machine-gun fire could stop the advance of a battalion of troops.
This is the difference between the services, although the 27th Division was attached to the navy and participated in the landing battle, it did not change the deep-rooted conservative tactics of the army, so it was most obvious in this campaign.
The performance of the 27th Infantry Division of the United States Army in the Battle of Saipan has become a disgrace to the United States Army, and Marshall, after synthesizing the reports of Turner and others, proposed to Roosevelt the necessary reorganization of certain units in the United States Army.
Marshall said that if they could have the fighting will of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, then the Battle of Saipan would not have caused the Army to fall into such embarrassment, at least it would have to show its past performance.
In the early morning of the old days, Song Yuhang stood in Fang Lin's forward command center, this was the first time he sat with Fang Lin and Liang Chao and drank a cup of tea after the start of the Saipan landing battle, there was no doubt about the battle of Saipan at this moment, and what Song Yuhang did now was to rely on the firepower of the US army to try his best to reduce the losses of the troops.
The Japanese troops in the surface positions around Tapocho Peak had all been driven into the underground fortifications, and even with the support of the Satan Spitfire tanks, the Japanese fortress group was destroyed in close proximity, and the Chinese Expeditionary Force's engineers suffered heavy losses.
Looking at Tapocho Peak, the highest peak of the Japanese army on Saipan, the faint mist made a playful smile appear on the corner of Song Yuhang's mouth.
In the early morning of the new day, the old ground artillery group of the US army and the four ground artillery groups of the Fengguo Expeditionary Force simultaneously carried out a non-stop shelling of Tapocho Peak, and Turner, according to Song Yuhang's request, sent five small transport planes to Calcutta to transport a batch of special supplies, and Turner did not make specific inquiries.
Because all ground command has been handed over to Song Yuhang, his role at the moment is to play a good future officer.
An infantry company of the 2nd Marine Division, escorted by a company of tanks, handed over the batch of up to 200 cylinders to the anti-chemical warfare company of the 12th Regiment of the 3rd Light Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
Turner asked Song Yuhang about this batch of special supplies, but Song Yuhang replied: "There are some things you still don't know better, I'm the commander of the face team, and I'm solely responsible for everything."
Feeling that something was wrong, Turner asked the pilots of the transport crew, who only said that the bottles were originally skulls with Japanese on them.
It was shipped with a fresh paint finish, and the skull and number were written on the bottom of the bottle.
At this moment, Turner already had a rough idea of the special materials that Song Yuhang was transporting and their general purpose, and Turner didn't feel disgusted with Song Yuhang at all at the moment.
On the contrary, I feel that Song Yuhang is a very negative "water and fire", and Turner is even grateful for not involving himself.
Song Yuhang's plan was very simple, Tapocho Peak was the commanding height of Saipan, as the highest ridge of Saipan, the belly of Tapocho Peak had been hollowed out by the Japanese, and he did not believe that the Japanese technical and material support could maintain the operation of the ventilation system of such a huge underground fortification for a long time.
Moreover, Ye Chuan also reflected that he felt very depressed when he infiltrated the Japanese army headquarters.
Song Yuhang realized at that time that the Japanese army's fortifications in the belly of Tapocho Peak on Saipan Island actually had the same purpose as the ventilation system used by the fortifications they built in Songshan, and since the Japanese army used the self-priming main ventilation system to use auxiliary fans as a means, he could use hundreds of bottles of various poison gas from a batch of Japanese biological and chemical weapons captured in Burma to give the Japanese army a big enema.
Governing others in the way of others is what Song Yuhang is most willing to do, but because he is under the command system of the allied forces, Song Yuhang clearly realizes that he must change his previous practices and styles, everything must be low-key, and the impact must be minimized.
The simplest example is that in the past, Japanese prisoners of war could be trained to bayonet at will, and they collapsed.
But now we have to pull it to a place where no one is around.
After the collapse, I had to dig a pit and bury it, and the way and practice of dealing with it had changed greatly, and the process was much more cumbersome.
The Chinese Expeditionary Force cannot always be in a passive position at the political level, which will seriously offset the achievements of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and it is easy to leave a murderous and barbaric image on the Allies side, which will become an obstacle to the subsequent development of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the benefits it deserves, after all, no one wants to entrust their territory to an army comparable to the barbarism and ferocity of the Japanese army, which is the Allies' side.
It is also something that the League of Nations did not expect to see after the war.
Therefore, Song Yuhang must change the fighting style of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and change the blatant black hand behind the back, which is the so-called black hand behind the back, which is infinitely fun.
Song Yuhang taught the senior officers to learn to enjoy the pleasure of a similar conspiracy succeeding or shooting a black gun in the back, not to always do things in a blatant manner, at least to make face passable.
Song Yuhang held a meeting with the officers above the regimental level of the 2nd and 3rd Light Divisions, but the engineer brigade directly under the corps, under the cover of four artillery groups and one battalion of smock Sherman tanks, laid hoses and transported cylinders from the cleared south side to the summit of Tapocho Peak.
Because the south side of Tapocho was relatively gentle, most of the Japanese army's firepower points were almost completely destroyed when the U.S. troops used special incendiary bombs, and the remaining Japanese firepower points were all destroyed by the Satanic Spitfire tanks in a close manner, but the south side of the flat Tapocho Peak had little to do with the east, west, and north sides where the Japanese army's firepower points were dense and could echo each other, and the Japanese army's defense focused on the main peaks in the east and north directions, so the Japanese army did not pay much attention to the loss of the relatively flat south side of Tapocho Peak.
On the evening of the Kouyuedao Evening, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Engineer Brigade directly under the Corps completed the laying of six pipelines and the transportation of steel cylinders, and had already found a suspected Japanese concealed vent on the mountainside valley wall of the main peak on the east side.
Located in the Allied Headquarters in the forward village of Chuchulan.
Song Yuhang looked at the watch on the table with a serious expression, and his tightly knit brows made all the staff officers in the headquarters hold their breath and not even dare to breathe, after a while, when the hour, minute and second hands of the watch all coincided in the position of the leading point, Song Yuhang took a deep breath, he needed to bet once, if the Japanese fortifications were all poison gas isolation measures that led to the failure of the offensive, or the poison gas could not be injected into the Japanese fortifications in large quantities, Then the Allied offensive had to be halted by the massive spread of poison gas.
Song Yuhang knew that according to the estimation of poison gas experts.
If the cast fails, with the typical low-pressure climate of the Pacific islands of Kouyue, it will take a large amount of poison gas to completely dissipate and volatilize to a healthy value that can breathe normally, and what kind of changes will occur in the battle of the knife hour Song Yuhang could not predict, it was obvious that the prolongation of the battle would not be beneficial to the allies.
But the time has come to make up your mind.
Song Yuhang slowly turned his firm gaze to Wang Chongxian, who had been holding the phone, and said, "You can start."
Captain Sapper after putting down the phone.

Took a deep breath: "Brigade seat, the commander's department ordered to start" In the main fortifications of Tapocho Peak, the haggard Saito Yoshiji was smoking a cigarette by himself, while Takashi Otamura stood in front of the sand table and stared closely at the location of the latest identification of friend and foe, feeling weak and powerless for the Allied troops Takatsu Takata, who was approaching step by step
