The discussion with the think tank basically set the tone for the negotiations, but it is still necessary to wait for the situation to change, Japan has only expressed an attitude by banning the Black Dragon Society, but there has been no substantive action yet, so the battle on the battlefield is still the mainstream.

The battle on the 6th was basically over, with Renji as the center, there were traces of the battle everywhere within a radius of more than 100 miles, a large number of Japanese soldiers surrendered, and a few days of decisive attacks completely consumed the morale of many temporary brigades and regiments in Japan, when the high-level fled with the 14th Division, the Japanese soldiers who lost their command finally decided to surrender, but a considerable number of soldiers changed into civilian clothes and hid.

Most of the mobilized soldiers of the temporary brigade came from all over Kyushu Island, and after they hid themselves, the Chinese army was unable to distinguish which soldiers were and which were civilians, and now there were more important tasks than that.

In addition to the armored brigade and three marine divisions, the 1st and 2nd armies of the Chinese army pushed north, into Kumamoto and Miyazaki prefectures, with the goal of eventually occupying the entire island of Kyushu.

The armored brigade returned to Kagoshima to recuperate, while the marines rested in place and awaited follow-up orders. In the barracks of the armored brigade in the western suburbs of Kagoshima, the commander of the first armored battalion was sitting in his room writing a report, and the battle summary, battle exploit summary, and tank situation had to be reported in a timely manner.

At the entrance of the armored brigade barracks, a military jeep with the air force logo was stopped, and a heavily armed sentry walked up to the car, and after experiencing it, he asked: "Please show your ID, explain your identity and the reason!" ”

Pulling up the handbrake, Captain Bai Zhai took off his sunglasses, handed over his military ID, and then said: "Air Force Captain Bai Zhai, come to find He Guangsha, the commander of the First Armored Battalion." ”

"Wait a minute!" The sentry saluted again, and ran back to the camp gate to verify. After waiting for two minutes, the sentry handed back the identity documents, and then with a wave of his hand, the barrier at the camp gate was opened, Bai Zhai put on sunglasses, saluted in a dashing manner, and then ran into the armored brigade barracks in a jeep.

After coming in, I remembered that I didn't know where He Guangsha's kid was now. So I asked along the road, and finally stopped the car in front of the battalion headquarters, found the battalion commander's office, sorted out my clothes and knocked on the door.

"Enter!"

Bai Zhai pushed the door in, and saw He Guangsha frowning and writing something, and he didn't look up to see who it was.

"Report to the battalion commander, the Japanese chick was not found!"

He Guangsha raised his head at this time, and when he saw Bai Zhai, he was first startled, and then laughed. Bai Zhai also walked over with a smile, the two hugged each other, and then after they separated, He Guangsha punched Bai Zhai hard.

"When did you kid learn to be oily, by the way, have you been flying over my head these days?"

"Needless to say, seeing that your armored brigade is surrounded, of course, our air force must exert revolutionary unity to relieve you from the siege. Or I won't see you now! Bai Zhai picked up the cigarette on He Guangsha's table, lit one and laughed unknowingly.

Bai Zhai poked He Guangsha's sore spot this time. glared at Bai Zhai fiercely, and then asked, "Why do you have time to come over, you and our armored forces are strictly secret units, how did you find the armored camp?" ”

"What can we hide? You can see it clearly in the sky, not to mention your armored brigade camp, even the palace of Emperor Meiji's kid! Bai Zhai took another kick from He Guangsha for his showmanship. That's when he spoke more seriously.

"How's it going, does it feel good to fly a plane?"

"Just like that, we can't touch the enemy's planes at all, and now we have a formed air force in China, and there are very few planes in other countries that can even fly into the sky. Not to mention against us, I think the time for me to become an ace pilot will drag on for a few years. ”

"It's true, our technological superiority is too great, for example, our armored brigade, not only Japan, but I'm afraid that the armies of the great powers will not be able to block the surprise attack of the armored brigade. However, previous battles have shown that equipment alone is not enough, war is a systematic project, all are indispensable, and without the cooperation of infantry, armored brigades can easily fall into heavy encirclement. ”

"When I was at the academy, I asked the instructor that from the moment our air force and armored forces were made public, the speed of upgrading weapons and equipment in the world will be accelerated, such as enemy aircraft, anti-aircraft guns, and anti-aircraft machine guns against aircraft, and local armored forces, anti-armor guns, and individual rocket launchers against armored forces, not only in terms of equipment, but also in terms of establishment, changes in combat methods, and so on. If we are arrogant and staggered in our new equipment, we will definitely be surpassed by the great powers, after all, the people's heritage is much deeper and their industrial capacity is stronger. ”

"Is that what the instructor said, that means that our upper echelons can see it very clearly, and we don't have to worry about it, our troops will still have a generation advantage for a while. It's just that I'm afraid it will be difficult to use our armored brigade in the next battle, and now there are no formed enemy troops in Kyushu, and the 14th Division has also been reduced to zero, I believe that the next stage will be dominated by anti-guerrilla operations, just like Burma, I hope we can do better than the British army. ”

"In that case, your armored troops might as well return to China, and a lot of logistics and transportation forces will be consumed here. Our air force will definitely continue to stay here, you know, the second field airfield was repaired soon, and the above meaning is obvious, that is, to continue to play the role of the air force in reconnaissance and ground support, and it is not good for the Japanese to make a few planes to let Lao Tzu shoot well! ”

He Guangsha looked at the flamboyant Bai Zhai dumbfounded, he wasn't like this before, could it be that the Air Force is a group of such elites? Or is it the habit of Bai Zhai's kid Beijing gangster?

Bai Zhai didn't stay here in He Guangsha for too long, first, he knew that Lao He had a lot of paper work to do, and second, he came here just to catch up on the old days and have some fun by the way. The so-called fun is to laugh at Le Fei and Dong Dashan, who are training hard in China with He Guangsha, they have always been fighting on the front line before, and now the feng shui is turning, and it is finally their turn!

Bai Zhai, who walked through the barracks and was about to leave, found that the barracks were full of busy soldiers, most of the soldiers were repairing and cleaning the vehicles, and it seemed that the armored brigade was really going to return home.

The timing of returning to the air base was just right, and after Bai Zhai changed into his military uniform, he got a briefing on the operation, and then held a brigade meeting to explain the situation. After that, Bai Zhai led his squadron to heaven and went to the front line.

The content of the briefing was very simple: the army's logistical supply line, which was advancing towards Miyazaki and Kumamoto, was attacked by Japanese guerrillas, three transport teams were attacked, a large amount of ammunition and other supplies were looted, and the transport team suffered heavy casualties. The Air Force was asked to assist the ground forces in finding the guerrillas and to cooperate with the Army in the fight against those guerrillas.

The matter is not so simple, the intelligence shows that the so-called guerrillas are completely organized by the mobilized soldiers of the escaped temporary brigades, they have a certain military ability, and they have a deep local popular base, coupled with the dense population, many villages and towns, crisscrossed roads, and dense mountains, forests and rivers, which are very conducive to the guerrillas' hiding.

At present, the Chinese army only controls the area near the communication line, and has little military presence in the area outside the main roads, which makes the guerrillas swell rapidly in a short period of time, and they take the transport team as the main target, and the Chinese army is caught off guard and is successfully attacked by the guerrillas. More than 20 soldiers were killed or wounded in the three convoys, and such casualties caused the upper echelons of the group army to be furious, and immediately ordered the recuperating marines to protect the convoys and form a detachment to encircle and suppress the guerrillas.

Lu Liang remained silent after receiving this information, he was still too merciful to the Japanese, the Chinese army and the Japanese army were on the same footing, even if they treated the local people in Kyushu well, they would still be resisted by the guerrillas, this is a life-and-death war between countries, there is no distinction between civilians and soldiers.

As a result, a secret order was transmitted to the headquarters of the Kyushu Group Army, and the operation codenamed "Avenger" was launched, which was ordered to be top secret, and it was the 1st Marine Division that carried out this operation.

After the frontal battle was basically over, the Chinese army captured about 80,000 Japanese soldiers, who were originally ordinary civilians in Kyushu and Honshu, and were mobilized to form temporary brigades to serve as cannon fodder. The Chinese army set up more than a dozen temporary concentration camps in Muyuan and other places to guard the prisoners, but no decision has been made on what to do with them.

After the 1st Marine Division took over the camps, it ordered more than 20,000 prisoners of war to dig 17 huge pits more than 40 kilometers east of the pasture. It is a sparsely populated area of low mountains and dense forests, and it has been a national park in Japan for generations. It was not until July 19 that all the pits were dug up, and much of the time spent was spent on secrecy work, and the Marines kept the road from the camp to here, and the vicinity of the pit was placed under martial law.
