"W-isn't this a little too..."
After listening to Wei Wu's words, Jonathan hesitated.
"There is an old saying in China, which is that if you kill a bad person, you are a good person. No, if you kill an evil person, you are kind. It means that if you kill a bad person, you are doing a good deed."
"We are killing those fanatics now just to prevent them from doing bad things in the future and to save more people."
"We are saving the free world and helping more free people to liberate themselves from the clutches of the emperor."
Wei Wu whispered in Jonathan's ear.
After listening to Wei Wu's words, Jonathan felt that it seemed like that, but he also felt that something was not right, but for a while he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
"General Jonathan, are you an American general or a Japanese general? Shouldn't your position be to save the lives of more American soldiers? They are not a series of numbers. Each person's death represents a family. The brokenness represents parents who have lost their children, children who have lost their fathers, and wives who have lost their husbands.”
"Can you bear to see these families broken up? If that's the case, I can't help but doubt your position, General Jonathan."
Wei Wu stood up, leaned forward, and looked down at Jonathan, giving the latter a sense of oppression.
For a moment, Jonathan felt that the other party seemed more like an American general than himself.
I hope the Japanese will die.
"Perhaps it's because of his Ryukyu ancestry?"
Jonathan made excuses for himself.
Jonathan knew that he had to take a stand. If it was a little later, Wei Wu would label him as a defector.
"I didn't mean that. I think the Japanese are so unconscionable that they actually let people carry out suicide attacks. We want to expose their ugly face and let the people stand up on their own and overthrow their emperor."
Jonathan said.
"It's useless. In this environment, no one will stand up to oppose it. Do you think the situation in Japan is very good?"
Wei Wu sneered.
"Just this year, there was a rice riot. The front line was victorious, but domestic material supplies were insufficient. It's ridiculous, isn't it?"
"But in this case, how many people dare to stand up? The military police can easily solve it. Then everyone can just continue working."
"It's useless to expect them to stand up on their own. They can't do it, so we have to help them."
Wei Wu turned and walked towards the telegraph room: "I will report the situation truthfully to General Nimitz and give my opinions. As for whether to implement it, it depends entirely on what the other party wants."
After Wei Wu finished speaking, he walked outside.
Looking at Wei Wu's back, Jonathan had an illusion. He had never felt that Wei Wu's back was so tall.
It seems that Wei Wu is the warrior who dares to break through the darkness and face the monster.
Wei Wu came to the telegraph room and told Nimitz in an encrypted message that he had obtained information through the internal line of the base camp. The secret weapon used by the Japanese was a manned torpedo called the Kaiten torpedo.
And invented a lightning strike formation with destroyers as the core.
What Nimitz encountered before was the first test of the lightning strike formation.
According to the minutes of the meeting at Base Camp, the Prime Minister and the Emperor were satisfied with the test and were asking the Navy Ministry and shipyards to speed up construction and swamp the Pacific Fleet with massive Kaiten torpedoes.
In addition, the Army has been inspired to develop an aircraft version of the Kaiten torpedo, named Kamikaze. The attack method is the same as the Kaiten torpedo, and trials will be launched in the near future.
It is recommended that the Pacific Fleet strengthen anti-aircraft artillery, increase the firepower density of secondary artillery, and expand the defense circle to prevent the Japanese army from succeeding again.
Wei Wu wrote down his suggestions.
In fact, both Kamikaze and Kaiten Torpedoes are typical thin-skinned and large fillings.
In order to increase the power, the protective armor was reduced.
So if the American army wants to protect itself, the best way is to increase the density of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.
And sent more fighter jets to cruise in the sky.
As long as the firepower density is high enough, such a suicide attack can be thwarted.
Historically, Japan's suicide attacks have not achieved many results.
In addition to being activated too late, the main reason is that the firepower density of the American army is too high.
Those rookie pilots couldn't get in and were shot down.
Therefore, as long as you do a good job in defense, you can defend against most suicide attacks.
But there will definitely be fish that slip through the net.
In addition, Japan now launches suicide attacks three years earlier than in history. From a long-term perspective, the casualties caused to the US military are definitely much greater than in history.
Plus the islands in the Pacific that are armed as hedgehogs.
It was easy to arouse the real anger of the American army.
By that time, the blood feud between the two sides will become deeper and deeper, and it will not be easy to stop casually.
By then, the American army may actually attack the Japanese mainland.
That would be great fun.
After receiving Wei Wu's telegram, Nimitz was surprised and happy.
What is surprising is that Japan actually carried out suicide attacks, and they were carried out in both sea and air directions.
If he doesn't deal with it well, his Pacific Fleet will definitely suffer heavy losses.
Fortunately, Wei Wu was able to obtain this level of intelligence, which proved Wei Wu's ability and status.
With such people as internal responders, it will be much easier to fight Japan.
Nimitz looked out the window.
At this time, Ma Run from the two divisions had been sent to Saipan.
After suffering these blows these days, these Ma Run have learned to be smart.
Before advancing, call for artillery fire to clear all obstacles in sight.
Then a large number of smoke bombs were thrown to create shooting obstacles.
Send small groups of elite soldiers to search for enemy bunkers and tunnel entrances inch by inch.
Once you find one, throw all the bombs you can find into it, and then seal the hole with cement.
Although the speed of travel is slow in this way, the casualties are greatly reduced.
So far, a third of the island has been completely cleared.
If we persist for a while longer, we can completely capture Saipan.
Nimitz hesitated and decided to split the Pacific Fleet into two parts.
Part of them continues to stay here to support Ma Run in attacking Saipan.
Another part returned to Pearl Harbor to strengthen anti-aircraft firepower.
With the current military production capacity of the US military, this level of modification only takes two or three days.
The fleet's air defense will soon be strengthened.
In this way, if you encounter Kaiten Torpedoes or Kamikaze Agents again, your winning rate will be much higher.
After making the decision, Nimitz split the fleet in half, and one part began to turn and sail toward the depths of the ocean.
The movements of the Nimitz fleet immediately attracted Ohba Sakae's attention.
During this time, he has been observing the movements of the American troops on the island on the main peak of Saipan.
The steady advance of the American army gave him a headache.
After all, his bunker cannot be moved and he can only passively wait for the American army to attack.
It is easy to be defeated by the American army one by one.
If the American army continues to advance like this, I am afraid that the entire Saipan Island will eventually be lost.
Just when Ohba Sakae was anxious, he suddenly saw Nimitz's large fleet beginning to turn.
Ohba Sakae couldn't help but get excited: "Could it be that Nimitz couldn't bear it any longer and was preparing to retreat? Could this be a good opportunity to make a comeback?"
Ohba Ei's mind started to move.
