Manila, German military Pacific Theater Headquarters.
After German military took over the entire South Seas, Pacific Theater Headquarters moved here.
Minister of War and Chief of Staff Field Marshal Manstein assumes the role of Commander in the Pacific Ocean theater, responsible for commanding the Germany army in Pacific Ocean's operations against Island Nation.
Now, German Army has won South Seas, and German Navy has eaten Island Nation Navy's Combined Fleet. This leaves this war with only the attack on Island Nation's Mainland.
In the Pacific Theater Headquarters conference room, Germany generals from the Pacific Ocean army, navy, and air force in the Pacific Ocean theater gathered here. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. Because everyone knows very well that this battle is about to end.
"Everyone, the only thing we have left to do in this battle is to attack Island Nation's Mainland. Once we capture Island Nation's Mainland and destroy Island Nation, this battle will be over. I believe that everyone has been looking forward to this day for a long time." Field Marshal Manstein said.
"Your Excellency, after we defeat the Island Nation people, we can go back to the country to visit the Christmas. I haven't returned to the country for two years." said an German military general.
The other generals also agreed.
Since Island Nation's Army attacked South Seas, German military's troops deployed in South Seas and Australia have never returned to the country. Now, Island Nation can be defeated immediately, and they have naturally been looking forward to it for a long time.
Field Marshal Manstein nodded. "It's already late August. There are still four months until Christmas. I think it should be possible to destroy Island Nation in four months!"
"Your Excellency, we will definitely destroy Island Nation within four months!" Marshal Rundstedt said.
The other generals also nodded. In their opinion, it would take less than four months to destroy Island Nation.
"Everyone, I know that everyone is eager to return home. However, His Majesty the Emperor has warned us that we must be particularly careful in the battle against Island Nation, especially the attack against Island Nation's Mainland. That's it. After fighting against the Island Nation people, it must be clear that the Island Nation people are a very crazy nation. They don't seem to be afraid of death at all. If we attack Island Nation's Mainland, we will face tens of millions of Island Nation people. In other words, tens of millions of crazy Island Nation people who are not afraid of death. This means that we must. We have to be careful. Otherwise, we are very likely to suffer a big loss in Island Nation's Mainland and pay a heavy price. I think this is what no one wants to see!" Field Marshal Manstein said.
"Your Excellency, Island Nation civilians will also be so crazy? They should know that facing the fully armed Empire soldiers, if they participate, it is no different from seeking death." Marshal Bock said.
"According to the information we have obtained now, the Island Nation people are already frantically expanding their army. Their local army has expanded to eight million people. Although most of them are mobs, even ants can still kill an elephant if they are large in number. In addition, Island Nation The government has also begun to mobilize the people and distribute weapons to them, so that they can attack the Empire* soldiers after the Empire* army attacks Island Nation's Mainland. "So, we have to be prepared," Field Marshal Manstein said.
"God! The Island Nation people are really a crazy nation!" Marshal Rundstedt sighed.
Almost all the other German military generals have the same expression.
"Everyone, no matter how crazy the Island Nation people are. Our mission is to destroy them. Your Majesty has authorized it. After logging in to Island Nation's Mainland, Empire's Soldiers have the right to attack any target they think poses a threat to themselves! In order to avoid large casualties in the troops, I hope that every soldier in the Empire can do this well." Field Marshal Manstein said.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" All the generals replied.
Although, they know that this will cause very large killings in Island Nation's Mainland. However, if someone from Island Nation died, that would be much better than if one of our own people died.
"Everyone, let's go back and prepare. In five days, we will launch an attack on Okinawa. After conquering Okinawa, we will directly launch an attack on Island Nation's Mainland!" Field Marshal Manstein ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency." The generals replied one after another.
On August 25, Imperial Navy Atlantic Fleet, Pacific Fleet and Indian Ocean Fleet launched an attack on Okinawa.
Hundreds of Carrier-based aircraft bombed airfields and other military installations on Island Nation Army Air Force on Okinawa Islands.
Although Island Nation Army Air Force resisted, German carrier-based aircraft group quickly completed the task given the huge gap in strength between the two sides.
Subsequently, German Navy dispatched more than twenty Capital Ships ships and launched a fierce bombardment on the Island Nation's Army's military facilities in Okinawa. Under the fierce bombardment of large-caliber heavy artillery, the military facilities of the Island Nation's Army were severely destroyed. The troops garrisoned on the island also suffered heavy losses.
That afternoon, German Marine Corps dispatched five divisions to land on various Okinawa islands.
There are only more than 50,000 people in the Island Nation's Army and Okinawa. Although these soldiers of the Island Nation's Armys are very brave. When they fight, they often fight to the death. Even after the position fell, they were able to launch a counterattack without fear of death under the leadership of the officers.
But even so, it still cannot save the defeat.
Before sunset, German military captured the southern part of Ryukyu Island, and several other islands also fell into German military's hands. Island Nation's Army on the island pushed into the mountains to resist.
But German military still didn't let go of these Island Nation's Army. With the support of our own Naval Gun and Carrier-based aircraft, German Marine Corps wiped out Island Nation's Army in the mountainous area.
Three days later, almost all of the Island Nation's Army's troops in Okinawa were wiped out by German military, and only a handful of the Island Nation's Army escaped. But they can only move in mountainous areas and can no longer pose a threat to German military.
After German Marine Corps captured Okinawa, seize the time to repair the airport on the island. Next, German Air Force will launch a large-scale bombing of Island Nation's Mainland. At these airports of Okinawa, German Air Force fighter planes will all be parked to provide escort for Bomber of German Air Force. In this case, German Air Force's heavy-duty Bomber taking off from the north of Luzon Island can bring the south of Island Nation into the bombing range. What's more, German Air Force can also use Russia to bomb Island Nation's Mainland from the airport in Russia. In this case, the entire Island Nation will be under bombardment by German Air Force.
