The Japanese strategy was unique for three reasons: 1) The Japanese didn't fight above ground. They fought the battle entirely from beneath the ground. They dug 1,500 rooms into the rock.

They planned not to survive. 3) Japanese strategy was for each soldier to kill 10 Americans before they themselves are killed.
