Genius remembers it in one second and provides you with wonderful reading.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Explosions kept ringing on the Japanese positions, and the shells for fighting against Japan and rescuing the Japanese were constantly smashing on the Japanese positions, just like they didn't have money. Explosions were everywhere, and Japanese soldiers were killed everywhere. The tragic situation of corpses being torn into pieces everywhere. The entire Japanese army's control area was like a Shura hell.
The Japanese soldiers hugged in trenches or lay on the ground, looking for places to hide everywhere. However, their current control area is almost a river beach. Except for a small forest, the rest are flat mudflats. This makes them have nowhere to hide in the face of the artillery bombardment and bombing of fighting against Japan and rescuing the Japanese and rescuing the country, and they can only bear it passively.
"Baga! Why do those Chinese people have endless shelling? Do they want to blow all of us by just shelling?" A Japanese soldier roared angrily. If possible, he wanted to break out of the trenches and launch an attack. Even if he died, he would die on the way to charge. Instead of waiting for the time to be killed by the anti-Japanese and rescued shelling.
"Kun Kawaguchi, are we dead? Now the Chinese have surrounded us and can destroy us at any time." A young Japanese soldier looked frightened.
"No, Aso-kun, we will not die. Amaterasu will bless us and continue to fight against the Chinese people. Although we are temporarily surrounded here. However, the squad leader has said before. The Southern Army has sent troops to reinforce us. As long as we persist, we will be saved soon. At that time, we can fight back against the Chinese people. I swear that before returning to Japan, I must kill more than twenty Chinese people with my own hands." Kawaguchi said swearingly.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a sharp whistle came from above his head.
"Damn it, the Chinese shells." Kawaguchi's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly wanted to run out of the trench.
However, it was too late. A shell fell directly beside them. After the shell exploded, Kawaguchi and Aso were both blown to pieces.
During the shelling and bombing of the anti-Japanese rescue, countless Japanese soldiers were killed and injured. Of course, those injured by the bombing would soon die due to lack of medicine and treatment.
The casualties of the Japanese army began to rise sharply, while their morale was constantly falling.
"Damn the Chinese, they didn't plan to attack, they were bombarding and bombing all the time. Obviously, they wanted to use their firepower advantage to get rid of us all." Lieutenant General Shigemasa Aoki's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot.
Their temporary command center is located on the edge of a forest. The Japanese engineers dug a simple underground bunker here, covered with branches as camouflage. As long as they are not directly hit by shells or bombs, there should be no problem in safety.
"Commander, when will our reinforcements arrive?" asked Lieutenant General Akiyama Yoshidui. Now, his 54th Division has become the main force of the surrounded Japanese army. This has also increased his voice a lot. However, these are useless at all. They will soon be eliminated by the anti-Japanese rescue.
"The reinforcements sent by the general of the Temple are already on the way. The 15th Division, the 22nd Division and the Independent Mixed 29th Brigade will soon enter Myanmar. The 46th Division and the Independent Mixed 26th Brigade will take a boat to Yangon and then support us on their backs." Lieutenant General Shigemasa Aoki replied.
However, Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemaki didn't know how long it took for those reinforcements to arrive.
Suddenly, a trace of doubt appeared in the minds of the Japanese generals in the command center, that is, can they really insist on the arrival of reinforcements? Maybe they will be killed before the reinforcements arrive.
"Your Excellency Commander, generals. I have a bad news to tell you about it." Colonel Katakurazuka suddenly said.
"What news?" Lieutenant General Shigemasa Aoki asked with a dark face.
"When we retreated, we not only gave up heavy weapons, but also our supplies. Therefore, we don't have much food anymore. I'm afraid we can't hold on for much time." Colonel Katakurazuma said with a tough bullet.
"What?" Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa suddenly changed his face.
The other Japanese generals also looked very ugly.
If the fierce shelling and bombing of the anti-Japanese and rescued the *** will cause them to suffer heavy losses. However, they are confident that they can hold on for a while. But if there is no food, the consequences will be very serious. At that time, the Japanese officers and soldiers will probably starve to death.
"How long can our food last?" asked Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa.
"Two days, up to three days. The soldiers have very little dry food left." Colonel Katakurazuka replied.
"No, from now on, the food supplied every day will be reduced by half. If we subtract the food that the soldiers who died will consume, we should be able to last for more than a week." Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa made the decision.
"Commander, now each soldier can only get two rice balls a day. If it is cut in half, it may not be able to maintain the consumption of one day." Colonel Katakura was very worried.
At that time, the Japanese soldiers will not be full and have no strength, so how can they continue to fight with guns?
"Let's make arrangements like this first. If it really doesn't work, then find a way." Lieutenant General Aoki Shigemasa said.
"Hi, Commander." Colonel Katakura nodded and stopped saying anything more.
Soon, the Japanese soldiers who were standing on the defense line discovered that they could get less and less food. Even from morning to night, there was only one rice ball. Some Japanese soldiers were extremely hungry and could only drink a few more sips of river water.
This has caused the physical strength of the Japanese soldiers to continue to decline. At the same time, their morale is about to fall to the freezing point.
The fight against Japan and rescue ** still sieges without attacking. Apart from using artillery and bombardment to deal with the Japanese army, no troops were sent to launch an attack at all.
Of course, if the Japanese army wanted to break through, it would be impossible. The Anti-Japanese and Rescue ** also built a simple defense line at a distance of 15 kilometers outside the Japanese army's defense line. Although the defense line was simple, it could completely prevent the Japanese army from breaking through.
After several attempts, the Japanese army ended in failure and finally had to give up breaking through and continue to be trapped.
Three days later, the Japanese army was already at the point where they were out of ammunition and food. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users please browse m to read for a better reading experience.
