"Hold on to the land and fight to the last man!" This is a secret telegram from the military headquarters, and Matsunaga Masatoshi handed the secret telegram to the chief of staff and walked out of the headquarters himself. The headquarters is located in a dense forest, which has the advantage of being highly concealed and convenient for evading aerial reconnaissance and bombing by the Chinese army, but the disadvantage is that it is inconvenient to command, the communication situation is poor, and radio waves come and go. However, after receiving this secret message, Matsunaga Masatoshi did not need to conduct detailed commands, as long as this secret message was transmitted to the troops below, those officers knew what to do.

Matsunaga Masatoshi's temporary headquarters was in this encirclement, and the war had reached this cut-off, and he was ready to kill himself. The current situation is very bad, the 32 divisions and 430,000 men of the Kumamoto Group Army Group are divided into two parts, east and west, although only 12 divisions belong to the standing divisions, and the artillery, ammunition, food, and other materials are not sufficient, but the number is the greatest advantage of the Japanese army.

"Send a telegram to all divisions and convey the order of the military headquarters, I want to make Kumamoto Prefecture the grave of the Chinese army! However, the Chinese army can be interspersed with encirclement, and we can also order the 1st Tank Division to attack Wumu from the southwest, and the 19th and 55th Divisions to protect the left and right flanks. ”

"Is the commander going to cut off the armored forces of the Chinese army from their main forces? Sure enough, it was the wise and martial commander Masatoshi Matsunaga, who had been hiding the tank troops, and launching an attack at this critical time would definitely interrupt the offensive of the Chinese army, and maybe destroy the armored force of the Chinese army! The chief of staff couldn't help but admire, most of the generals advocated dispersing the tank troops in the positions defended by the infantry, but did not get the consent of Matsunaga Masatoshi, as a veteran who had fought many battles with the Chinese army, he knew that the tank could only be used intensively to exert its greatest power.

Thirty-five kilometers west of Wumu, there is a huge area of low mountain forest, the Chinese army suspected that there were Japanese troops hiding here, and many times organized reconnaissance without success, and the bombers also carried out several reconnaissance bombing, but also did not find the enemy, and finally had to give up. In fact, Matsunaga built two huge fortifications in this forest, including an underground material storage warehouse and a semi-underground chain of fortifications. There are two divisions of standing army soldiers, the most elite 1st Tank Division is also stationed here, and Matsunaga Masatoshi is also based here.

Preparations begin as soon as the order is transmitted to the troops, with the soldiers refueling the tank, loading ammunition, and checking parts such as engines and gearboxes, and the officers receiving orders from their superiors and passing them on to the junior officers and soldiers. As the most elite tank troops, these officers and soldiers enjoyed a lot of envy and jealousy, and under the boasting, the pride of invincibility in the world arose in the hearts of these people. They believed that even the Chinese tank units were no match for themselves, and they would teach the Chinese a hard lesson with the Type 08 and Type 05 tanks, and drive the Chinese out of Kyushu Island with the tank's 45 mm guns and 33 mm guns.

Masatoshi Matsunaga looked at the tanks of Japanese soldiers coming and going in the jungle, and suddenly felt full of pride, how long can the Chinese hold out in the Japanese archipelago where everyone is a soldier?

Commander Li Fei of No. 114 knew that he could hold out for a long time, his Leopard tank could hold out for a long time, and the grenadiers who followed behind could also hold out for a long time. The Chinese soldiers are the authentic inheritance of oriental civilization, and when it comes to patience, the Chinese are not much worse than the Japanese.

"Boom!" At a distance of 500 meters, the Leopard's long-barreled gun accurately hit a Japanese machine-gun position, sending parts, sand and human stumps flying in the air. After the position was resolved, there was no heavy fire point in the Japanese position in front, and the Leopard tank accelerated forward, jumped into the trench in front of the position, and its huge body appeared above the heads of the Japanese.

An MG42 machine gun made a rhythmic sound of tearing linen under the skillful operation of the grenadiers, and it was difficult for the Japanese soldiers to get up and return fire until a chain of bullets was gone. More than 40 grenadiers bent down and followed the Leopard tank in a careful assault, and when they reached the Japanese position, they attacked the Japanese trench from both sides of the tank more than ten meters before they reached the Japanese position.

A rifle bullet hit one of the grenadiers in the shoulder, and he fell to the ground screaming, his Garand rifle still on the sidelines. The comrades around him continued to charge, and if they didn't want to fall to the ground like him, they had to hurry into the enemy trenches. A grenadier dragged the casualties into a crater in the back and shouted: "Hygienist, hygienist!" "When the field doctor can come over depends on luck, fortunately, at this time the offensive has just begun, there are not many wounded, the health officer quickly rushed to the wounded soldier, after a brief examination, got up to take out the first aid tools from the backpack, did not want a bullet to pass through the health officer's steel helmet, drill a small eye - the bullet will not hide because you are a health officer, in fact, there is no humanitarianism at all in this war, the Chinese army frantically slaughtered Japanese soldiers, almost no prisoners, the Japanese army desperately resisted, almost will not surrender. The two Oriental countries, both of which are in the period of national ascent, brought the Oriental civilization into full play in the war.

The problem is that the Japanese army is so desperate and there are some helpless factors, they lack firepower, lack artillery, tanks, aircraft and rapid-fire guns, and even the machine guns at the core of infantry tactics are greatly inferior to the Chinese army, and they are suppressed by the Chinese army everywhere, so they can only use the spirit of bushido and militarism to paralyze the soldiers, and use the flesh and blood of the soldiers to fight against the tanks and artillery of the Chinese army.

And what about the Chinese army, why did it have to annihilate the Japanese army in the encirclement? Why don't you besiege them and kill them? The food supply of more than 400,000 troops will collapse them in a few months! According to Lu Liang's statement in the General Staff, the Japanese archipelago will become a training ground for the Chinese army, and he wants to exchange 100,000 to 150,000 Chinese casualties for 2 million or more elite Chinese soldiers. And these elite soldiers will be the basis for the future operations of the Chinese army.

The battle for the Japanese archipelago will also temper China's logistical support capability and industrial mobilization capability, and make the army's mobilization and organization mature. In general, this war is the last mock test before the college entrance examination, and there will be more severe tests waiting for the Chinese people in the future.

The Chinese government has a perfect system of assistance for retired soldiers, disabled soldiers and their families, and generous pensions and good jobs can slightly alleviate the grief in the hearts of those disabled soldiers and their families. Compared to the pain of losing a loved one, those things are nothing, this is the pain that the rise of China must bear, and those families who have lost their loved ones will bear these pains together.

The dense sound of submachine guns and shotguns meant that the Japanese position was about to be breached, that the grenadiers were about to carry out another killing, that there were not a single Japanese prisoner and that there were no casualties among the four grenadiers.

After landing on Kyushu Island, the death of the first grenadier allowed his companions to learn to bend down and fight, and at the end of the first battle, the grenadiers learned to dodge artillery fire and machine gun fire, and when a company of more than a dozen grenadiers was killed or wounded, the soldiers of this company have become experienced elites.

The Japanese soldiers in the trenches tended to fight to the last man, and their blind and fanatical obedience to the orders of their superiors was rooted in faith in the emperor. They will not flee from the trenches and retreat because of the disadvantage of the soldiers, nor will they raise their hands to surrender to the Chinese soldiers, they even hope for death, such an opponent is very strong.

Car No. 114 provided strong fire support, coaxial machine guns and course machine guns were constantly strafing, and a large number of exquisite bullets turned into honest shells, and the bullets were swayed on the Japanese positions, occasionally rushing into the bodies of Japanese soldiers, taking away a large piece of flesh and blood, sometimes directly half of the corpse. The large-caliber machine gun bullets were so powerful that the Japanese soldiers had to fight under machine gun fire until the machine gun ammunition carried by the No. 114 tank ran out.

"Ah!!h A Japanese soldier slowly moved along the side of the trench, dodging machine gun bullets, holding an explosive bag in his arms, and finally approached the hateful tank, and was about to jump out of the trench and rush to the tank track a few meters away, when several bullets flew from more than ten meters away and drilled into the Japanese soldier's body.

The Chinese grenadiers were not only elite infantry, but also experts in infantry and tank cooperation, and protecting tanks had become their subconscious behavior, without these simple and tenacious grenadiers, Li Fei's No. 114 tank would never dare to rush to the Japanese position single-handedly.

It is difficult to find an anti-tank gun position on the Japanese positions that have experienced the baptism of Chinese aerial bombardment and artillery, and then attacked by Leopard assault guns and Leopard tanks, and a few infantry guns may have survived, but they will not pose much threat to the Leopard tanks. Most of the damaged Leopard tanks were destroyed by anti-tank mines and explosive packs, and the lack of superior equipment such as large-caliber anti-tank guns and individual anti-tank rocket launchers made the Japanese army's combat extremely difficult.

Under normal circumstances, the tanks of the armored forces can easily rush to the Japanese positions with the cooperation of the grenadiers, the MG42 and tank machine guns carried by the grenadiers suppress the Japanese firepower, the grenadiers enter the trenches to sweep, the tanks cover the surface positions, and a Japanese position defended by 50 people will be broken through by the Chinese army in ten minutes, and the price paid by the Chinese army is only a few people.
