Chapter 1235 Shrinking the Battlefield

Both Zhansen and Jiang Anhua have a strong sense of gratitude for the mysterious webmasters directly under them.They were able to jump from the small and middle level of the captain level to the current divisional level leader and were awarded the rank of major general in the army. This was entirely from the recommendation and support of the station leader.

Achievement is not the most important thing. The key is also related. There are too many officers of the Military Statistics Bureau who are stuck in the rank of colonel, and not everyone can have the opportunity to enter the general rank.

To say the credit, it must be the credit of the station. The first and second intelligence offices were originally the foreign agencies responsible for supervising the agents of the May agency. As a result, the stalls became bigger and bigger. With increasing staffing, it turned out to be an expatriate agency of the Military Statistics Bureau spanning four provinces.

Zhan Sen and Jiang Anhua are in Hangzhou and the other is in Suzhou. The distance between the two places is not far, and they always find a way to meet twice a year.

Although he is now a major general of the Military Statistics Bureau, he governs more than a dozen intelligence teams and action teams in four provinces, and controls the destiny of hundreds of people, but none of them dare to cock their tails.

Since this mysterious webmaster has a way to bring them up, he has the ability to kick them out, and the best way is to be a straight line.

"Seeing that this war will be over in another year and a half. The headquarter of the bureau will definitely be rewarded by merit. We also have two field offices, one in North China and one outside the customs. It is considered that the direct subordinate station is the military unit. The bureau's well-deserved first major station is far more powerful than the military-incorporated Shanghai area that year." said the telecommunications section chief.

The super-high class of the Japanese military police seems to be less crazy than before. The Political Security Bureau is more like a frosted eggplant, with no energy at all. The policemen of the Wang puppet government dare not be so impoverished. The units are in the mood to start discussing the post-war situation.

"This person, sometimes it really depends on luck. The North China Intelligence Office and the Customs Foreign Intelligence Office are both field agencies that we directly established in the later stages of the station. The two directors are the old subordinates of me and Jiang Anhua!"

"It is because they restore the local intelligence network for the Military Command, and keep fighting behind the enemy line. There is no credit and hard work. After the victory of the War of Resistance, they have to be promoted to major general. Look at the luck of others!" Zhan Sen said with a smile.

May 8th is a very important day when the German government unconditionally surrenders to the Allies!The US warships on the sea near Okinawa each fired three artillery shells at the Japanese positions to celebrate.

But the joy was sorrowful. At 18:40 on May 24, the Japanese army dispatched 12 planes to carry out an airborne raid on the U.S.-occupied airport on Okinawa. Four planes returned or forced to land due to malfunctions. Four planes approached Okinawa as they approached Okinawa. It was shot down by US anti-aircraft artillery and all the people on board were killed. Only four of them arrived at their destination at 22:00.

The Japanese transport plane landed on the two airports by way of belly landing. The commandos did not wait for the plane to completely stop before jumping out of the cabin and throwing grenades and incendiary bombs at the planes parked on the airport.

Although the U.S. military acted quickly and eliminated 56 Japanese soldiers on duty, it also suffered 20 casualties, seven aircraft were destroyed, 26 aircraft were injured, and more than 70,000 gallons of aviation gasoline was destroyed. Burnt down, the fire at Kadena Airport was not extinguished until 20 o'clock on the 26th. The loss was staggering!

At the end of May, the two battles launched by the Japanese came to an end. The Twelfth Army of the Japanese Army basically achieved the expected goal and completed the destruction of the Laohekou Airport. However, the 20th Army of the Japanese Army, which launched an offensive to the west of Hunan Province, was defeated. And ended, the battle ended on June 8.

In this battle against Xiangxi, the Japanese army killed more than 15,000 people and wounded more than 20,000 people by the Shancheng government army. Its main infantry division, the 116th Infantry Division, was severely damaged since the end of the battle. , The Japanese army never launched a large-scale battle.

In June, the Battle of Okinawa also came to an end. On June 18th, Lieutenant General Buckner, the commander of the Tenth Army of the U.S. Army, went to the front line to supervise the battle. However, the Japanese army’s first shell was actually The commander of the lieutenant army was killed.

The strange thing is that there has been no shelling in this place for a long time, and Lieutenant General Buckner has also become the highest-ranked general who died in the entire Pacific War.

On June 19, Lieutenant General Udoman sent his final farewell telegram to Tokyo Base Camp in the cave tunnel numbered 89 in the defensive position at the southern end of the island, and then instructed his subordinates to make the final decisive attack.

At 4 o'clock in the morning on June 23, Lieutenant General Udoman knew that the U.S. military was about to occupy the tunnel he was in, so he took off his military uniform and changed into a kimono. He toasted with the staff around him one by one, drank his final farewell wine, and then had a laparotomy. suicide.His chief of staff followed him to commit suicide by caesarean section, and some officers also committed suicide.

At this point, the large-scale organized resistance of the Japanese army came to an end. The sporadic resistance of the Japanese army continued. The work of clearing the remnants of the Japanese army continued until the end of June. On July 2, the Battle of Okinawa was officially declared over.

The battle was doomed to failure from the beginning. The Japanese killed more than 40,000 people and more than 10,000 were captured. About 100,000 people died on the island, 783 aircraft were lost, and 16 ships were sunk. , Damaged four ships, and the Japanese Navy's combined fleet basically lost its combat capability and almost wiped out the entire army.

In the Battle of Okinawa, the US military suffered more than 30,000 casualties, lost 763 aircraft, sank 36 ships and injured 368 ships.This is the largest, longest, and heaviest loss in the US and Japanese operations in the Pacific Islands, and of course, it is the last battle.

"Chen Jun, according to the instructions of the base camp, the dispatched army must reduce the concentration of troops on the battlefield, and work with the Southern Army and the Kwantung Army to respond to possible offensives by the US, Soviet and Shancheng government. To this end, the dispatched troops have made extensive adjustments. , Shrink the battlefield and withdraw a large number of troops."

"In particular, the Sixth Front Army will withdraw eleven divisions and six brigades from Guangdong, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guangxi provinces. Most of them will be used as mobile forces in Central China. I have received The command of the headquarters prepares the necessary logistical support for a large number of troops." Matsui Takuro said.

This mobilization plan is that after the successful landing of the U.S. forces on Okinawa, they did not approach the coast of China’s southeast coast. Based on these circumstances, Neiji Okamura and the staff of the dispatched army command believed that coastal defense against U.S. landings has lost value. , Should shrink the battlefield area, gradually withdraw the coastal defense forces in these areas, and focus on the next new situation.

This proposal was approved by the Japanese base camp, agreed to the request of the dispatch army headquarters, and a new round of mobilization began.
