In the Battle of Peleliu, there were only 30 Japanese troops left in 1 100 million.

Battle of Peleliu Island: Japanese army 100000 people, and finally only 30 people were left. In World War II, the whole world was enveloped in a bloody war. The Japanese army launched the war of aggression against China and invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the battlefield of China. At the same time, the relationship between Japan and European countries continues to deteriorate, and Japan is isolated internationally. Britain and the United States imposed economic sanctions on Japan and cut off the import of Japanese war materials.

As an island country surrounded by the sea, Japan is very scarce in resources. In order to find a breakthrough in the periphery, Japan launched a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, which also marked the official start of the Pacific War. At will, the United States officially declared war on Japan, although the military strength of Japan and the United States is very different.

However, the Japanese army adheres to the spirit of militarism and the soldiers swear to death. Therefore, it is still very difficult for the US military to confront the Japanese army. The Battle of Peleliu Island is definitely the most tragic one in the Pacific War. The Battle of Peleliu, also known as Operation II, was encountered on Peleliu Island in Palau.

The commander of the US military is Major General William Rupert, the division commander of the Marine Corps. He expects to occupy the island in four days. In fact, the war lasted for more than two months, far exceeding expectations. This is definitely a fierce and cruel war.

The Japanese army summed up the experience of the past battle to seize the island and put forward a brand-new defense plan. Instead of blindly taking suicide charge, it established a defense plan suitable for Peleliu Island in combination with the geographical location of the island. It can be said that this defense is perfect.

And the Japanese army is always ready to meet the US military, and the equipment advantage of the US military should not be underestimated. The American army has the latest warships and shells, and concentrated its fire on bombing this island with only 6 square miles. Under such intensive bombing, the Japanese army still has the strength to fight back, which shows that the Japanese army is terrible.

Instead of rushing out to fight back as before, the Japanese army relied on its own official duties and tunnels to hide from the bombing, and arranged a large number of snipers to kill in the dark. After the bombing, the American troops began to land, and they were strongly countered as soon as they came up.

At one time, the American army suffered heavy losses, but with the continuous efforts of the American army, it kept approaching the island, and the situation was very fierce. The first division of the US Army was unable to fight again, and the US Army 8 1 Infantry Division took over to continue fighting, and the casualties were still very heavy. Soldiers on both sides are determined to die.

There were about 10,000 American casualties, while all Japanese troops guarding the island were killed, and countless lives were buried on this island. This battle is called the most cruel one in the Pacific War. It is still one of the most controversial battles in World War II.

Because Peleliu Island is of little strategic value in the "island-seizing tactics" of the whole US military, the number of people killed is very high, but in terms of the number of people who participated in the war, the casualty rate of Peleliu Island Battle can be said to be the highest in the Pacific War, and it is called "the most intense marine battle in the war" by the National Museum of the US Marine Corps.
