The five-day bombardment time is the time that all the Japanese troops on Saipan have won.

As originally planned, the shelling of Saipan would take only forty-eight hours, with the unprecedented firepower of the basalt fleet, and forty-eight hours of shelling and ninety-six hours of shelling, which was not much different.

But the sky gave the Japanese army on the island and won 72 hours.

As early as a month ago, a submarine of the Red Guard Navy was lurking around Saipan, collecting the most detailed plagiarism information.

As an island in the heart of the Pacific, the data of tides and falls is changing every day, and the number is completely different.Sometimes it is time to stop for three hours, and it is time to retreat; sometimes it hardly rises, so that the ship is in a hurry.

The meteorological department of the Red Police Navy conducted a large number of calculations, using the central computer on the command ship White Tiger to calculate, and finally determined the best landing time.

The factors of the tide and the tide are very related, especially the Red Police Navy needs to send a large number of tanks and armored vehicles to the beach, and it is also related to whether the amphibious garrison can successfully send soldiers to the landing site, and the depth of the sea brought by the tide is also related to the time of continuous landing operations.

The Second Marine Corps requires that the landing site be kept at least three hours at the time of landing.

The tide on Saipan was at 5 a.m., and it was dark to see the beach head, and the landing was early;

At 5 p.m., it was too late to land, and it was not appropriate to unload and establish a beachhead defense area.The rest of the time is small tide, and the fluctuations are not regular.

There are two kinds of small tides: high and uncertain tides - that is, the tide that should not retreat, the low tide of uncertainty - the tide that should not rise.

After five days of shelling, it is the time of the full moon, if the gravity of the moon is three days in advance of the impact on the flow of water near Saipan, once - high tide of uncertainty, then the landing craft can rush to the reef disk, soldiers can avoid wading, the tank can be early into battle.And have more suitable duration for landing.

And this is also the reason for the delay in landing time, according to the Red Police Meteorological Department's calculations, this time there is really a high tide of uncertainty.

The rhythm of the war was like turning gears and relaxing, delaying for several days and increasing shelling of Saipan.

Guided by the Black Fox Special Commando, all the exposed targets on the island have long since been destroyed.

However, the Japanese army on the island also established many cement bunkers with dark castle structures, which will become a difficult point after the landing.

Although sufficient bombardment time can destroy as many targets on the island as much as possible, it is undeniable that these times also give the Japanese army on the island, the time to strengthen the hidden defense line, the war is a matter of seconds, the weather is often a lot of unsatisfactory impact on the rhythm of the war.

Throughout the pace of war in history, the use of war tactics rarely really cost-effectively.

It was like a great wind in the Korean Strait that Kublai Khan’s fleet called the kaminoon, and what Napoleon’s artillery had suffered in Waterloo.

Under the calculation of the Red Police Meteorological Department and the computer, the Red Police Corps did not encounter weather that was not conducive to its own, and Saipan began to rise as calculated.

On the amphibious assault ship near Saipan, a large number of officers saw that the tide was really rising, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, the signal lights in each battleship flashed, and it was five o'clock in the morning, and the sky was bright, and for the Japanese soldiers on Saipan Island, the fleet looming on the sea was still quiet.

But in the fleet, in the flashing lights, a large number of soldiers began to assemble inside the landing gear.

The Red Guard Marines did not need soldiers to climb off the ship, get on board, and then land as the ship did in this era.

A amphibious hovering-mat landing craft was quietly opening the dock to prepare, a rhino amphibious tank made a low roar, and in the multi-purpose amphibious tank, neatly lined up armed soldiers, quickly entered the tank, locked and closed to the boarding door, and the closed valve was as thick as a submarine door, capable of isolating all the seawater.

The Marine Corps is the most technologically integrated of all the combat units of the Red Guard Corps, and although it has not yet reached the luxury of wearing radios for every soldier, a combat class must have three radios.

The first radio is in the squad leader, through the radio can be the first time to understand the situation of the battlefield, know where to need support, but also quickly call the ship gun or carrier-based aircraft to attack the infantry difficult to destroy the target.

The other radio is on the class fire crew, usually the machine gunner or the 40 fire operator, and the third radio is on the sniper.

A squad of the Red Guards Corps Marines consisted of ten fixed men, one sergeant-in-arms, one sergeant-in-command, one single sniper, two-person fire crew, and five ordinary soldiers.

The snipers of the Red Guards are snipers from high-ranking units, and even the snipers of the most ordinary combat units are from the senior service.

A general combat firepower, completely up to a Japanese combat group, and even in the Marine Corps' class combat force, all from the senior service, not ordinary soldiers of the regular army.

Marines are high-cost troops, and as the future of the enemy is more and more tough, coupled with the huge force structure, the resulting combat costs of the Corps, Fan Yize also intends to no longer intend to expand the size of the expeditionary corps in the future, but will improve the individual quality of the expeditionary corps as much as possible.

Perhaps in a few years, every soldier in the expeditionary corps, even the most ordinary logistics soldiers, came from the senior army and was a very good special soldier.

At present, such a structure is only implemented in the elite army.

Because of the recruitment of senior services, a cost problem is good to say that for Fan Yize, who already has a world resource, this cost can be fully affordable.

In terms of recruitment time, the recruitment speed of the senior service is twice as fast as that of ordinary soldiers, and ordinary soldiers, a barracks, can recruit one a day, but a senior barracks and a barracks can recruit one for two days.

The doubling of the time cost is not practical for the Red Guard Corps in the early stage of development.

Now that the total strength of the Red Guards is close to five million, it is time to take some elite routes, and the opponents to face in the future are also elite.
