Hypocritical Iwo Jima

Demarco 2022-04-22 07:01:16

When the U.S. military attacked Iwo Jima, the Japanese devils were almost finished. The quality of the soldiers replenished by the army was getting worse and worse. The soldiers could dig trenches and dig a stomach of resentment. It has been beaten to pieces, and the sea and air are under the control of the US military. The conventional anti-landing combat mode in the previous battles on other islands has brought disaster to the Japanese defense forces. By the time of the battle on Iwo Jima, I already had enough experience and lessons. I knew how to abandon the beachhead, let the US military land, and use the terrain on the island to evade the US military's aircraft and naval guns. This correct approach made the US military miserable. Victory is no problem, because the Japanese devils guarding the island have been cut off from food, ammunition and freshwater supplies, but the US military needs to take down Iwo Jima as soon as possible, and will pay a heavy price for this. In fact, some islands are surrounded and not beaten to death. In the Japanese army, the lazy soldier in the film said that his stomach was uncomfortable, which is a common phenomenon. There is insufficient food and fresh water. Eating seafood is easy to have diarrhea. There are also those who attacked without authorization. In the second half, various memory killings, family shows, and even escape and surrender were made. The Japanese Imperial Army, which fought to the end in history, was smeared like this, without the assistance of Chinese anti-Japanese dramas. In the end, it's going to be desperately sensational as the ending. The Japanese themselves have blackened their martyrs in this way, we can't still feel sorry for others. One star 2 points.
