The defeat of a Japanese tank division and two Japanese standing divisions did not cause much trouble on the Kumamoto battlefield, in fact, such annihilation wars occurred from time to time, and Masatoshi Matsunaga in the Japanese command only smashed a few cups to vent his anger. Although there are high hopes for tank troops, but the reality is so, what can be done?

The statistical documents sent to him clearly showed that the troops were being greatly reduced every day, from more than 400,000 to 310,000 in five days. If it continues at this rate, let alone a counterattack, it would be a great fortune to be able to hold out for a month, and the order given by the military department was to hold out for at least half a year to provide time for the rear of Kyushu Island to rearrange the defenses.

"There are three checkpoints on the main road, a sentry in the woods at three o'clock, and another at nine o'clock. With the addition of three other arterial roads, it would be hellish if there were no cats in this dense forest! Song Hao stated in a low voice in the grass, his tone was calm, and his whole body was shrouded in auspicious clothes and grass and tree camouflage - low-key and restrained, by no means as exaggerated and ostentatious as the interpretation in a certain "special forces".

"Well, the target is almost here, the location provided by the headquarters coincides with here, the defense is strong, the radio signal is dense, and it should be where the Japanese headquarters is. Let's find a way to get closer, and it's best to find Masatoshi Matsunaga's headquarters and send electricity to the rear. Sniper Jiang Maosheng responded, he withdrew his Mauser sniper rifle, and the two slowly withdrew from the observation point.

The Chinese army was always looking for the location of the Japanese headquarters, and defeating it would leave the Japanese army isolated and fighting on its own. According to the electronic signals collected by the B25 reconnaissance plane, the headquarters suspected that this dense forest was the target, but the photos taken by the aerial reconnaissance could not be determined, so it had to send Jiang Maosheng and Song Hao, the "Grim Reaper," to investigate. Until electronics replace the naked eye, ground-based surveillance will remain an integral part.

The "Grim Reaper" partner has experienced a lot of wars over the years, and as he grows older, he no longer has the physical strength he had at his peak, but he has more experience. Before the Battle of the Japanese Islands, they were instructors in the special forces, and after the war began, they joined the front-line combat units, and they and more than 200 special forces shone in the battle for enemy bridges, the destruction of enemy logistics warehouses, the attack on convoys and the sniping of enemy commanders, and became a competitive branch of the army officers.

"It's a connoisseur who set up the defense, I haven't found a point that can penetrate, what can I do?" Song Hao and Jiang Maosheng replenished food and water in the temporary camp, and discussed infiltration methods by the way.

"The roads and woods are full of open and dark sentry posts and checkpoints, and maybe there are minefields, which is really not easy to manage, or we disguise ourselves as Japanese soldiers and sneak in?" Song Hao came up with an idea.

"Forget it, we are different from the little devils in height, temperament, etc., even if we master Japanese and passwords, it is easy to see the flaws, and some things can't be disguised. Did you notice that the Japanese were transporting trucks and wagons back and forth, and there were not large groups of soldiers passing by, and there were even a few tanks going back and forth. The most dangerous place is the safest place, let's get under the belly of the little devil! ”

Jiang Maosheng's words are inaccurate, in fact, he is hiding under the territory of the Japanese army's truck, and the American-style ten-wheeled truck used by the Japanese army is also imitated from the Huaguo truck, with a similar structure, and the two are very familiar with each other. They hid at a bend in the road, waited for a Japanese convoy to pass by and slow down, quickly got into it and clinged to the ground.

Fifteen minutes later, the two of them took advantage of the truck's slowdown to get out again, hid in the grass on the side of the road, and did not dare to move their bodies until late at night - this was already near the Japanese headquarters, and the dense Japanese soldiers and the tents and wooden houses not far away made the two of them dare not act rashly, which was considered to have completely penetrated into the stomach of the Japanese!

"I'm going to do it next time, and I'm almost found by the little devils on patrol several times!" Song Hao complained that it was true, once the boots of the Japanese soldiers almost stepped on the grass above the heads of the two men, if it were not for the darkness of the evening and the excellent camouflage of the two, they would definitely be discovered by the enemy.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger! You see, it seems to be an underground fortification, and at six o'clock it should be a gathering point for Japanese tanks. Let's take a look, I guess there will be a big harvest here. Jiang Maosheng also had palpitations, and the two took advantage of the night to move slowly, avoiding the Japanese patrol.

The harvest was great, and the two of them basically figured it out in one night. There are very few large open spaces in this dense forest, even the headquarters is located under large trees, several underground fortifications hide huge numbers of soldiers and supplies, and a large number of tanks are camouflaged and parked in the woods. The most important thing is that they found Matsunaga Masatoshi's headquarters, as evidenced by the huge communication antennas and a large number of electronic devices, and the soldiers and officers who came and went.

In the early hours of the next morning, the two men ventured out of the truck again to send electricity to their superiors three kilometers away from the dense forest, and they showed with their successful actions that the special forces were very boring, and that in many cases they did not even need to shoot, and they drilled around like poor rats. For both of them, it was perfect to complete the task alive.

Thirty-five minutes later, in the early morning, more than 100 Chinese military planes appeared in the sky. The two could not see clearly from the ground, it was fifteen escort P51 fighters and eighty-five B25 bombers, the bombers were loaded with terrible solidified ******.

When the Chinese planes began to drop bombs, extending from one side of the dense forest to the other, and when the flames set off by the bombs could be clearly seen from three kilometers away, Jiang Maosheng and Song Hao not only trembled slightly. They were veterans of the battle, and they knew which planes were carrying what kind of bombs, and they knew the power of those bombs, and they knew even more about how many Japanese were in that dense forest. There is no pity for the enemy, but only the power of war is intimidated and proud of it - such a powerful weapon, but with its own help to achieve the goal!

The arson brigade is very skilled in this work, and their ranks are constantly growing, and now they have 350 B25 medium bombers and 55 B17 heavy bombers, and they have traveled all over the Japanese archipelago under the escort of P51 fighters. From Kyushu Island, Shikoku Island, Shimonoseki, to Tokyo Bay, Honshu Island Industrial Zone, and even military targets in Hokkaido have become targets. They ran rampant in the Japanese archipelago, and not a single Japanese fighter dared to take to the air to intercept it, nor did it have the ability to intercept it. The arson brigade applied to the headquarters to bomb major cities in Japan, but it has not yet been approved, not because of pity for those little devils, but because most of the military targets and strategic targets such as dams and industrial zones have not yet experienced fires, and the task of the arson brigade is heavy and long.

The little devil in the jungle seems to be in hell, and the luckiest one is Masatoshi Matsunaga, the old boy who did not have to endure the tragedy of the burning fire, and the place where he was hiding was directly hit by a bombshell shortly after the bombing began. Countless little devils were in pain after being contaminated by the sparks, but they had no means to extinguish the flames, they ran and jumped like crazy, trying to alleviate the pain, but they were contaminated with more targets, spreading the range of the flames.

The Japanese soldiers in the underground fortifications were even more miserable, the flames not only devoured people's lives, but also consumed most of the oxygen, and suffocation became the main way of death for the Japanese soldiers in the underground fortifications. The tanks of the 2nd Tank Division, which were hiding in the dense forest on the ground, were ready to start when the Chinese planes landed, but they did not escape the pursuit of the bombs, and in the end only more than 30 Japanese tanks fled from the place.

In addition to the more than 30 tanks, more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers scattered and fled, and were finally annihilated by the surrounding Third Panzer Army. This battle marked the loss of the ability of the Japanese army to counterattack, the loss of unified command, the loss of the most elite part of the army, and the destruction of the remaining 300,000 little devils was only a matter of time.

In the Miyazaki direction, too, a large number of Japanese troops were massed, and they used the mountainous terrain as a cover and relied on the towns to prepare for resistance. For the Chinese army, this is the best battlefield for training its own mountain troops, and the two well-prepared mountain divisions, the 1st Mountain Division, the 2nd Mountain Division, and the Taiwan Army Corps, entered this mountainous area with the assistance of the Fifth Army.

The Chinese army of nearly 60,000 mountain troops, more than 200,000 infantry, and more than 300,000 Japanese soldiers gathered in this narrow mountainous area, and the form of combat was almost a battle for mountain positions. The brutality of the battle was beyond imagination, with tens of thousands of soldiers killed and wounded every day, trees burned, grass turned to ashes, and even rocks became hot.

The difference was that most of the losses were on the side of the Japanese army, whose fortifications were not perfect, lacking bomb shelters, anti-artillery holes and perfect trench barbed wire, lacking underground fortifications, and the contact between the troops could only rely on soldiers to shuttle from the surface. They lacked artillery and ammunition, and with the exception of a few elite units, most of the reserve army was under-armed, not to mention ammunition and heavy firepower - and the breakthrough of positions was often due to the collapse of the reserves.

The wounded soldiers were not treated because there were too many of them, too few doctors, and there were not enough medicines, and several valleys became the graves of the dead and wounded Japanese soldiers, who were thrown there to rot and stink. And many more soldiers had to dump their corpses in the wilderness because they were not all corpses. The mountainous terrain and defensive posture were easily broken by the Chinese army, and the heroic mountain infantry and Taiwanese Gaoshan soldiers broke through the Japanese positions one after another, compressing them little by little.
