The peaceful days were instantly broken by artillery blasts.
The U.S. military concentrated naval artillery and ground firepower to severely bombard the Okinawa defenders' defense lines.
Twenty minutes after the detonation, let the armored fighting vehicle launch a key impact. If the distance between the fighting vehicle and the line of fire can be kept only 100 meters, there is a chance to directly crush it.
Countless fireworks rose from the Japanese defensive positions, and almost no one could be seen on the defensive positions. At most, the U.S. military's shelling could only blow up the civil fortifications on the surface or collapse the entrances and exits of some underground fortifications.
Ninety percent of the Japanese soldiers were waiting in tunnels or stronger alleyways to fight back. All soldiers were accurately informed that a battle with the US military was equivalent to a battle with tanks.
By doing everything you can to knock out the tank, your opponent will never be able to move forward.
?The artillery fire came one after another, and the ground kept shaking.
Sixty modified "Sherman" tanks began to launch a cluster attack, concentrating firepower to attack one point. After the entire defense line of the Okinawa defenders broke through one point, it would become much easier.
The shelling showed no signs of abating, and tanks in the distance crossed the US military's own defense line and entered the hollow zone between the two sides.
"Two hundred meters forward, you can crush the Okinawa defenders' defense line, and then the American soldiers accompanying the battle can enter the trenches and shoot all the Japanese soldiers with submachine guns.
"Ready to shoot!"
Fireworks spread across the Okinawa garrison position, and Japanese soldiers pulled out four "two-unit 150mm rocket launchers" to aim at the US tanks that were still attacking.
"Boom!"
Fireworks exploded into the sky, and a "two-unit 150mm rocket launcher" was torn into pieces by an exploding shell before it had time to fire out the ammunition. The three gunners fell in a pool of blood in a state of fragmentation.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
The Japanese commander hurriedly shouted, and the remaining rockets passed through the misty smoke and exploded on the body of the US tank. Four of the six 150mm rockets missed and only hit two "Sherman" tanks, causing scattered smoke and dust.
The extremely poor visibility coupled with the fact that there are always explosive bombings in the surroundings makes the shooter's shooting accuracy significantly reduced. Unsurprisingly, the US military's artillery cover tactics have achieved some results.
"Reload ammunition! Hold your position!"
"Order the Type 92 infantry artillery to fire! The fireman is ready to fire!"
The Japanese commander issued instructions repeatedly, and the artillery shells fired by the US military once again covered the entire position. The second rocket launcher was directly blown away and could no longer fire horrific ammunition.
"Whooshboom!"
The Japanese soldiers fired tenaciously, and four 150mm rockets exploded 80 meters away. Two "Sherman" tanks were hit by three and immediately stopped in place with fireworks.
"The fireman attacks! Block the tank!"
More than a dozen firelights were shot out one after another. Two sets of 150mm single-barreled rocket launchers and a dozen sets of 90mm rocket launchers destroyed three more "Shermans" with a sudden salvo.
Fang Tianlang expected that the US military would launch a powerful attack. Two days ago, he required each position to have not only two 150mm rocket launchers, but also some single-tube launchers and the previous two types of medium-caliber rockets.
The cluster firepower formed by simultaneous firing of rockets of various calibers and horizontal artillery fire can inflict sufficient heavy damage even if it cannot destroy the entire impact cluster.
"Boom! Boom!"
There was a sudden roar about 300 meters behind the Japanese defense line. Four Type 92 infantry guns and two Meiji 38-year-old 75mm field guns flattened their trajectory and spewed shells outward. On the side of the defense line, there were two 47mm rapid-fire guns. The gun continuously fired armor-piercing grenades to attack the tracks of the US tanks.
Different types of ammunition attack different positions. Fang Tianlang and senior Japanese commanders once carefully studied how to make each shell detonate at the most appropriate position.
Dense artillery shells hit the US armored cluster, and explosions continued one after another.
U.S. tanks have been modified to increase their tonnage and reduce their traveling speed, making them more likely to be hit by counterattack fire.
The tanks at the back not only had to avoid the craters on the ground but also the tanks in front that had been hit by interception fire. The Japanese interception firepower was as fierce as ever and was not reduced much because it was suppressed by firepower.
¡°Da da da¡ da da da¡¡±
The Japanese army used heavy firepower to intercept the swarm attack of "Sherman" tanks.
Suddenly, more than a dozen machine guns on both sides of the defense line were aimed at the American soldiers accompanying the attack behind the tanks and fired scorching bullets, knocking out the accompanying infantrymen hidden underground.The soldiers dared to get out and attack the slow-moving tank at close range. A Molotov cocktail hitting the back of the tank would basically turn it into burning scrap metal.
U.S. soldiers were shot one after another, and screams could be heard everywhere.
Two covers suddenly opened on the hot ground, and then two Japanese soldiers exposed half of their bodies and threw several Molotov cocktails directly at the nearby US tanks.
"Boom!"
Fireworks shot into the sky, two Sherman tanks were hit by incendiary bottles and burst into flames. Ten tank riders jumped out of the tanks and were immediately shot dead by Japanese machine gunners from a hundred meters away.
"I hit it! I hit it!"
The Japanese soldiers who succeeded in the attack jumped back into the tunnel, and the attack was immediately diverted.
Fang Tianlang did not want to see soldiers risking their lives in exchange for the opportunity to attack. The US military rushed through several tanks and would have been destroyed bit by bit if there were no soldiers accompanying them.
When the U.S. commander saw a dozen tanks destroyed behind the battle line, he immediately ordered the continued fire projection. Only by extending heavy artillery fire and mortar hoisting to suppress the Japanese firepower could the remaining tanks have a chance to fire shells.
The defensive position in front of us must be taken down, otherwise it will definitely put a huge pressure on morale. The attack launched after two days of rest still cannot penetrate the Japanese defense line, no matter how hard we try, it is useless.
Dozens of U.S. military mortars sprayed shells wildly outwards. The Type 92 infantry guns and Meiji 38-year-old 75mm field guns behind the Japanese defense line had to retreat into the tunnels under the impact of dense shrapnel.
If short-range firepower cannot suppress the opponent, ammunition will be projected from a farther position.
The thousands of large-caliber artillery pieces in the hands of the Japanese army showed only one percent. Until this moment, the US military commander did not have an accurate understanding of the firepower intensity of the Okinawa defenders.
"Fire at full speed! Soldiers evacuate their positions! Don't be accidentally injured by your own artillery fire! No one is left, all withdraw! Hurry!"
"Hi!"
Ushijima Mitsuru gave the order forcefully, and the combat staff picked up the phone to connect to the forward command center.
About six kilometers behind the fighting front, heavy firepower is ready to be projected. Twelve Taisho 4-year-old 150mm field guns will intensively fire shells to cover the US armored cluster in one minute.
Three minutes of volley fire and then rapid retreat into the tunnel. A row of bullets falling down can at least cause a fatal blow to the US armored troops arranged in a dense formation.
