Seeing that there were too many opponents, the semi-automatic rifles and mortars in the hands of the fighters began to shoot, and for a while, the whole battlefield was full of gunfire and dust, and the bullets of the soldiers were rapidly consumed.

"All artillery is replaced with shrapnel to attack the Japanese charging team." With the command of the artillery, all the guns pointed their guns at the charging team of the Japanese people.

A roar of artillery rang out, and shells were smashed towards the charging team. These shells did not fall to the ground, and when they were still two meters above the ground, the air detonation fuse suddenly detonated the explosives in the body of the bomb, and countless small steel balls in the warhead were scattered and scattered by the explosive gas, instantly covering a distance of 15 meters, and the Japanese soldiers within this range were directly beaten into a sieve.

Shrapnel exploded in the crowd, and each explosion of the shell cut a large hole in the dense charging team, and the casualties of the Japanese people skyrocketed, and the battlefield was full of blood, and the corpses that fell to the ground made the charging team behind stumble and have to slow down.

The reduction in the speed of the charge allowed the machine gun fire to be more exerted, and the dense bullets knocked down the already overwhelmed Japanese civilians in droves, and those Japanese civilians finally realized that it was a blessing to be burned to death sometimes, and they turned around and ran back despite the fire burning in the city behind them.

The retreat of the civilians disrupted the charging formation of the Japanese soldiers behind, and these Japanese soldiers were blocked by the retreating civilians, and the charge came to a standstill. It is most dangerous to stop on the road of the charge, and on the open ground, the Japanese soldiers who stop can only be the target of the Chinese army.

"All charge." With the commander's order, a loud charge horn sounded. The soldiers, who had been in the trenches, jumped to their feet, opened the folding three-edged bayonets on their semi-automatic rifles, and rushed forward quickly. The 1st Marine Corps launched a charge on the whole line, and the Japanese soldiers, who had already suffered heavy losses, no longer had the fighting spirit, they fell to their knees and surrendered, and when they saw that the troops had begun to surrender, those civilians also knelt down with their heads in their hands.

In this battle, the First Marine Corps killed and captured nearly 50,000 Japanese soldiers and captured more than 100,000 civilians with almost zero casualties. However, there were pros and cons to this method of fighting, Hirosaki Castle was destroyed by fire, the Chinese army did not receive any booty, and as many as half a million Japanese civilians were burned to death or died in the way of the charge.

Fang Xiaoyu, who received the news, scolded the commander of the First Marine Corps severely, saying that this kind of combat method was too cruel, and it was easy for foreign reporters to seize the handle, and it was also easy for the civilians of the Japanese Kingdom in other cities to have the idea of desperate resistance.

Seeing Fang Xiaoyu lose his temper, Feng Shichang persuaded: "Young Master, this battle has also been fought, although the international impact is not good, but at least we have reduced the casualties to a minimum. ”

Fang Xiaoyu said: "Is it just a matter of public opinion? Do you know how much a white phosphorus bomb costs? He used more than 30,000 pieces for me in one go. And all the booty in the city has been burned, do you think you don't need money to fight? Is it necessary to fight to feed the war in order to know the Tao for a long time? ”

Fang Xiaoyu asked a series of questions, and Feng Shichang, who said it, was speechless for a while, and he said in a low voice: "Young Master, now that the matter has come out, let's think about how to minimize the negative impact." ”

Tobul on the side interjected: "I have already greeted the press department and asked them to block the news, and in addition, I have asked the troops to bulldoze and bury this Hirosaki Castle, as long as there is no solid evidence, we can not admit it." ”

Fang Xiaoyu rolled his eyes and said, "Anyway, it's not allowed to use white phosphorus bombs like this in the future, tell these losers, if you give me such a lot of money, you will all be demoted to a non-commissioned officer to guard the island." We are not in a hurry to fight against the Japanese war, but after a few months, we will let all units of the National Defense Force go to training in rotation, feel the atmosphere of the war, and make preliminary preparations for our future intervention in the world war. ”

With sufficient material support, Sun Zhonglian's troops made rapid progress. After capturing Aomori Prefecture and destroying Hirosaki Castle, the army continued to advance southward, aiming for Iwate Mountain Castle.

Compared with the well-supplied northern army group, although the southern army group landed relatively early, the progress was relatively slow, after the attack on Tokuyama Castle, the Japanese army stationed on Kyushu Island suddenly attacked, they took fishing boats out to sea, with weapons in their hands to attack the transport ships of the Chinese Empire, and with small boats full of gunpowder or oil for fire attack, within a few days three transport ships were burned, tens of thousands of tons of material was lost.

In the face of these small fishing boats, the navy did not have a very good way, and in the end, some sailors installed small-caliber machine guns on the transport ships, anyway, the Japanese army did not have any real warships, and these machine guns were enough to destroy those Japanese fishing boats.

Although the Japanese army's sneak attack by sea was contained, due to the lack of large ports in the area controlled by the southern army group, there was a frequent shortage of supplies, and they did not have Ezo Island, which was as close as the north, as a supply base, so logistics supply was quite difficult.

Therefore, Zhang Zhonglin decided to suspend the attack on the main island of the Japanese kingdom, first concentrate his troops on Kyushu Island, and wait until the Japanese army on Kyushu Island was eliminated and used it as his logistics base, and the supply speed could be greatly improved.

After a period of operations, the headquarters also found out that the Japanese army strength is heavy in the south and light in the north, in order to reduce the difficulty of Zhang Zhonglin's operation, the country again transferred three armies of the national defense force for him, in addition to 100,000 Ezo troops from the country, as a supplement to the force, seeing the arrival of these reinforcements, Zhang Zhonglin was extremely excited, he was ready to start to eliminate the Japanese soldiers stationed on Kyushu Island.

The three newly arrived Wehrmacht troops were sent directly by Jang Chung-lin to the vicinity of Kurume Port, which was not far from the sea route of Hanpyeong-gun, and although it was not as close as Mutsu Port and Ezo Island, it was only about 200 kilometers in a straight line.

There is a strait between Kyushu Island and the main island, and without the support of the navy, the Japanese military top brass did not dare to deploy too many troops on the island, so the huge island of Kyushu was garrisoned by only 10 divisions, and there was only one wing of more than 4,000 people in Kurume Port.

Under the cover of naval guns, the marines forced their landing in the area of the pier. The coastal batteries guarding Kurume Port were unusually rudimentary and open, and they could not defend themselves against the attacks of large-caliber naval guns, not to mention that those shore fortifications with a maximum caliber of no more than 250 mm were no match for the 305 mm guns of the Chinese-class battleships.

Since the guns of the Japanese could not penetrate the armor of the Zhonghua-class battleships, several battleships boldly fired at close range, and soon destroyed the artillery positions on the turrets one by one. Without the threat of shore defense artillery, the light destroyers dared to break into the harbor and destroy the infantry positions of the Japanese defense coast with rapid-fire naval guns.

Although the caliber of the destroyer's naval guns is not large, it is also for the navy, if for the army, the 152 mm main gun is already considered an absolute heavy artillery, under the bombardment of this artillery, the civil structure of the Japanese positions were blown up one after another, some of the Japanese soldiers who had just joined the army and had not received any strict training threw away their weapons in horror, jumped out of the trench and hugged their heads, but then they were cut into several pieces by the flying shrapnel.

A large number of wooden ships with a small draft approached the port and suppressed the fire of the Japanese army with a large number of machine guns and mortars erected on them. This time, Zhang Zhonglin improved the landing method and increased these fire support ships when the Marines launched an attack with assault boats.

This tactical change had a very good effect, and the Japanese soldiers who were suppressed by the dense rain of bullets could not raise their heads at all, so they could only stick their guns out of the trenches and shoot aimlessly, so that the shooting method without aiming could protect the safety of the shooter, but its accuracy was only known to the old man.

Without much damage, the assault boat quickly approached the pier, and the marines, who had been ready, jumped to their feet, wearing military leather boots, and quickly stepped onto the stone pier of Kurume Port. The number of marines who landed was increasing, and they quickly gathered to outflank the Japanese positions from the rear, and under the attack from both sides, the Japanese soldiers stationed on the coast were quickly eliminated by bullets from behind.

The Japanese soldiers in the city did not dare to rush to the docks to support the coastal garrison, because they knew very well that once they left the shelter of the city, the shells of the large-caliber naval guns would easily tear them apart.

This time, Zhang Zhonglin learned the lesson of the last time, and as soon as he came up, he occupied a wharf that was enough to support the unloading of large merchant ships, and as long as he completely controlled this port city, he did not have to worry about the materials for the follow-up attack.

Sun Zhonglian's dilemma, Zhang Zhonglin also knew that this attack on the city he also divided the troops into a large number of tactical squads of a platoon of the Chinese army, a ban and a platoon of the Ezo army, with such a combination, the sneak attack of those armed Japanese people is no longer useful, the fierce Ezo people do not care about the life or death of the Japanese people, as long as they resist, they will be shot over, and the Japanese people in the city have already retreated a little after the worst.

Marine vehicles also followed the infantry into the city, and they existed as support firepower for the infantry. Unlike the Wehrmacht's infantry, artillery, and truck models, and the Grizzly 1 equipped by the Guards, the Marine Corps has its own unique Weasel 1 light tank.

Since the Marines have been stationed on soft islands for a long time and often carry out beach-grabbing landing operations, the weight of their combat vehicles cannot be too high.

The Weasel 1 light tank had 30 mm thick front armor and a 140 horsepower engine, in order to be able to drive in the water and land on the beach, this light tank was only 11 tons, while it could reach a top speed of 60 kilometers per hour, each tank had a crew of three, and controlled a 20 mm 38 times diameter gun and a 7 mm machine gun.
