Chapter 512: Strange Crazy

Chinese soldiers are delicious and well-lived on the Australian battlefield, and they are also the main force of the Japanese army, one of the strong Asian troops. They are really sad now. //《》.com》//

Adding it between the two major powers of China and the United States, both sides are exposed to the anger. No matter who it is, you can swing your fists and have some fun on this soft little man.

Now the most anxious about the US military landing in Wright Bay is not the Chinese or Americans, but the Japanese Army left in the South Pacific.

At this point in the war, many Japanese senior officials have already smelled the breath of failure, and the strength of the Japanese navy and air force has been basically exhausted. At this time, there were only more than 200 major warships in the Japanese navy, with more than 1.2 million tons. This strength is simply not enough to challenge any country in China and the United States.

The speed of the United States producing warships far exceeds the efficiency of Japan's sinking, while the military ships produced by China have combat power that surpasses the Japanese navy due to their superb technological level. Japanese senior management has long known this.

However, the US military had more than 600 ships and 2.5 million tons in the Pacific. However, the Japanese base camp still planned to resist stubbornly. Before the US military landed on the Bay of Wright, the Japanese army used its last force to transfer ten divisions conscripted from the country and the Korean Peninsula to the Philippines.

The Japanese base camp upgraded the 14th Army in the Philippines to the 14th Front Army. In addition to the 16th Division stationed on Leyte Island, the Japanese army transferred the 12th Tank Division of the 88th Division to Luzon Island, the Philippines.

The 103rd and 105th Divisions recruited by North Korea were sent to Luzon Island, near Manila. In addition, the Japanese army recruited from previous crazy immigrants in the Philippines and formed the 109th, 108th, 113th and 114th Divisions.

By early April, the 14th Front Army in the Philippines had eleven divisions, seven brigades, and 330,000. In addition, there were 60,000 Air Forces and 50,000 Navys on Luzon Island, and 30,000 replenished troops, totaling nearly 500,000 troops.

But this is not all the Japanese troops in the Philippines. The armed immigrants used by Japanese Yamashita Tomoto in Singapore continue to be used on every Japanese immigrant on Luzon.

The Japanese military told every immigrant in a vicious way that the Chinese had massacred all Japanese immigrants in Singapore, and that the Americans cut off all the heads of all the surrendered Japanese soldiers during the battle for these islands in Guam.

If you don’t want to die, then you can only join the Japanese army, pick up the weapons you can pick up, and continue to fight against the two enemies of China and the United States!

This kind of armed deception and mobilization of the Japanese army is very effective, and if this set is not easy to use, they will immediately use the Japanese spiritual leader loyal to the Emperor to coerce and induce people, and at the same time cut off the food source of the rejectors. This ruthless move made many Japanese immigrants who began to refuse to participate could only pick up bamboo guns to participate in the battle.

Because the people around them have almost joined the Japanese armed immigrant army, if they do not participate, they will not be able to compete with these armed immigrants for food.

You should know that the military now distributes some food to armed immigrants every day, but at most it can only survive. If you want to get more calories to support human activities, you must move around and look for it.

As a last resort, Japan unknowingly appeared on the island with the most immigrants in Luzon, an island with more than 500,000 troops and nearly 600,000 armed immigrants, and became the largest strategic group of the Japanese army besides the local area.

The US troops attacking the Philippines were the Southwest Pacific troops commanded by MacArthur, with a total of 500,000 troops from the army and navy. In April, the US troops landed on the island of Leight, and the Japanese troops on the island of Leight were at all unable to resist and were forced to retreat inland.

However, the Japanese army then launched a fierce counterattack on the landing US troops. However, at this time, the United States was covered with overwhelming frontal propaganda, and the background with MacArthur's heroic figure and imaginative imagination were stamped everywhere. The Japanese army missed the best opportunity to make things difficult for MacArthur.

Although I missed the best opportunity to drive the US troops out of the beach, the Japanese base camp still did not change its mind and reinforced Leight Island.\\

.com First release\\The Philippines is in the rainy season, and the super rainstorm that has lasted for several days has imposed the same restrictions on the transportation capacity of both sides.

Compared with the US mechanical transportation troops trapped in the mud, the Japanese devils' infantry overcame many difficulties and continued to reinforce. The Japanese Navy, which had previously performed poorly, also fought desperately to carry out transportation reinforcements. Taking advantage of this excellent time difference, the Japanese army took the opportunity to send three divisions and other units to Leyte Island.

Among the reinforcements, there is a 88th Division who is not an ordinary person. It is a veteran unit formed by veterans who participated in the war of aggression against China. Among them, it is the Kwantung Army that retired from Northeast China as its backbone force, and it can be regarded as the elite among the elite.

After reinforcements, the Japanese army on the island had reached 70,000 troops. However, by the end of April, the weather in the area improved slightly. The US military deciphered the Japanese code and learned that a fleet of Japanese transport ships sailed from Manila to Omoke Bay.

At dawn in early May, five transport ships carrying the direct troops of the 35th Army of the Japanese army and the 71st Division, a total of more than 10,000 people, were attacked by more than 200 US aircraft, and all transport ships and four escort destroyers were sunk. The more than 10,000 Japanese troops were almost drowned, and all military supplies were also lost.

As a last resort, after losing the final reinforcements, the remaining Japanese troops fought a desperate battle with the US troops on Leyte Island.

But the special environment and climate of Leight Island are more suitable for short Japanese soldiers, as well as the damn weather, dense rainforests, and even the ubiquitous mosquitoes in the sky, which are called enemies of American soldiers. Many American soldiers complained: "We have to dig mouse holes and go as we dig."

The meaning of this sentence is to drive a road out of the dense rainforest, because the machinery and equipment are trapped in mud pits. American soldiers could only jump out of leisurely tanks and use the machete in their hands to make a way in the jungle. They set off road in the jungle and often walk less than a mile a day.

It is better to say that the troops that go deeper and farther can only rely on the airdrop supplies of the US Air Force transport aircraft. This increases the difficulty of US military combat that relies heavily on logistics.

Leight Island is different from Guam and other islands before. Although Leight Island is also a concept of an island, the area of ​​Leight Island is far thousands of times larger than that of Guam. Its deep resources and available space are completely incomparable to the tunnel war that Guam must fight for inch of land.

At the same time, don’t forget what unit the 88th Division is, it is a unit composed of Japanese veterans who have participated in the war of aggression against China. These Japanese defeated soldiers have also summarized their experiences from being harassed by various local troops in China.

They found that using the advantages brought by their short bodies in the dense forests, they could unexpectedly appear in any direction of the marching US military. Moreover, many Japanese veterans found that as long as they did not use the dogmas in the single board "Infantry Practice" to restrain themselves, the cold gun battle with one shot and one stab at the other is quite useful to them.

The US military quickly discovered that they found that these Japanese devils would not yell and rushed towards them with a bayonet, but instead hid in ambushing in any place you could not imagine, and they would definitely not stop and retreat immediately after firing a shot.

This is different from the Japanese corpses who would have just stopped there and continued to shoot. In the battles between Guam and other small islands, the US military could easily find Japanese soldiers who were thrown foolishly and continued to shoot manually, and then concentrate all their firepower and use hundreds of bullets to shoot them into sieves.

Suddenly being hit by such flexible harassment military operations, the US military cannot quickly counterattack the other party. Faced with such sneak attacks, the best way is to quickly grab the other party and fight before the other party evacuates, and use its own firepower advantages to annihilate it.

However, the opponent himself does not intend to appear in battle, and he will never fight with one shot. This kind of fighting style that is similar to a sniper cannot quickly get close to the opponent or discover the opponent in the dense jungle, and the heavy firepower cannot provide help. As a last resort, he can only reduce the dispatch of small-scale troops.

The US military's senior command has issued new combat orders to allow more soldiers to gather together as much as possible to act, and be alert to a tree and a clump of grass around you at any time.

As the American soldiers also concluded their experience, that is, the Japanese army would never shoot cold guns within fifty meters, because the distance is too close and it is easy to be entangled by the opponent's dense rain of bullets.

Once the distance is widened, although the dense rainforest increases the difficulty of chasing and discovering targets, it also gives Japanese shooters the opportunity to be difficult to shoot. The dense trees and plants are good shelters.

To this end, when the US military squads marched, they would give priority to determining which places are suitable for the Japanese shooters hiding. If they could, they would clean up the bullet rains there. Even if they could not, they would try to avoid that place. This brought considerable difficulty to the Japanese sneak attackers, and casualties began to gradually decrease.

However, such a battle will inevitably seriously affect the speed of the march. Due to the Japanese army's tenacious resistance, the US army's progress is slow. At the same time, the mosquitoes in the tropical rainforest, as well as the high temperature, humid and hot weather and harsh geographical environment have also begun to cause the US army to frequently suffer non-combat reductions.

The skin ulcer caused by long-term wet clothing close to each other is everywhere here. Heavy rains that may occur at any time will make it difficult for you to change dry clothes to wash clothes, and those mosquitoes that are pervasive and blood-free, leeches, and various unknown small insects also make American soldiers unable to guard against.

Mosquitoes are the best transmission body of viruses that spread many diseases, especially these mosquitoes in the vast primeval forests and rainforests, which are even more terrifying to the US military. However, since the US military has the upper hand after all, and the medical conditions can ensure that the wounded can have sufficient treatment, many American soldiers can get timely treatment and healing.

But even so, many American soldiers kept complaining about why their commanders sent them here to fight, what is there? In addition to the quagmire and dense forest that can never be walked through, there are still quagmire and dense forests.

If there were Japanese devils hiding in the dark and setting cold guns, and the mosquitoes that would always wander around you, in addition, there were only mud, typhoid fever, malaria, dysentery, fatigue, rotten feet, and sores on their bodies. What would happen to the Japanese if these American soldiers with good logistics supplies were so embarrassed?

Can all the things here make the style of the five-star general of the Army more eye-catching? Damn, in the hearts of the US military's inherited sergeants and soldiers, they really want MacArthur to stay here for an hour, and maybe he will leave here faster than before.

The jokes and complaints of the American soldiers will naturally not fall into the ears of the noble officer who is lofty, but these American soldiers cannot imagine that in fact, the situation of the Japanese soldiers on the same island as them is even worse.

Since the five transport ships directly under the 35th Army and the 71st Division, a unit of more than 10,000 people were attacked by more than 200 US aircraft, and all transport ships and four escort destroyers were sunk. Not only did the more than 10,000 troops almost drowned and could not reinforce, but it also meant that all military supplies were also lost.

The last and only command that the supreme commander of the troops left on the island can obtain from the radio station will always be to stick to the last moment.

After repeated applications for evacuation or reinforcements failed, the Japanese base camp even ordered the battlefield commanders on Leyte Island to "continue the mission until the ammunition is exhausted. If your arms are broken, use your teeth. If your breathing has stopped, fight with your soul. Lack of weapons is not a reason."

After receiving this order, several last senior Japanese officers found a place with good feng shui and committed suicide by committing suicide by cutting off their caesarean section, leaving only the remaining Japanese soldiers who were at a loss and at a loss continued to struggle in the vast primeval forest.

After experiencing the early battles, many of the Japanese troops who were left on Leyte Island, many of the Japanese troops who were dispersed retreated into the primeval forest with the veterans of the 88th Division. According to post-war data, about 30,000 Japanese soldiers retreated into the primitive forest.

These Japanese soldiers had no reinforcements, no support, no food, no ammunition, and no medicine. Some of them could only carry guns and ammunition on their bodies before retreating into the primitive forest. In the harsh primeval forest environment, more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers died of illness in the first week. Most of the dead soldiers were injured in previous battles and could not get timely and effective quality after entering the primeval forest. In addition, wound infection caused by harsh environments.

In the later stages, the same environmental disease as the US military made the remnants of the Japanese army feel extremely painful. According to the memories of the surviving Japanese army, dengue fever and foot rot are the most common diseases.

Dengue fever is mostly transmitted by mosquitoes. If you pay attention, you can try to avoid tightening your clothes and reducing the exposure area of ​​your skin. Although it is a stupid method, it is better than taking off all your clothes and waiting to get blood.

However, foot rot is not so easy to prevent, and many times, mud that must be passed everywhere is to step on your feet into the disease. These mud and places that have been soaked in unknown dirt for a long time may cause your feet to be infected with foot rot.

Japanese soldiers who suffered from dengue fever and foot rot at that time were sentenced to death. Dengue fever had a sudden onset, high fever, pain in the whole body, bone marrow and joints, and extreme fatigue. Some of them may have rashes, bleeding tendencies and enlarged lymph nodes. Death will occur in just a few days.

Japanese soldiers suffering from foot rot disease are even more painful, and they will gradually experience itchy feet, rotten feet, redness, swollen and unbearable pain. Without medical treatment, these places will gradually spread to the entire footsteps, with redness, swelling, papules, blisters, and even erosion.

The sick soldier feels itchy, burning, and pain and can't help scratching, which increases the spread of germs and may even spread to his hands. What will happen to a soldier who loses his ability to work his hands and feet?

When the Japanese sergeants cannot fight, they will no longer carry waste that will only consume food. And they will leave these soldiers behind easily cross-infection again under harsh conditions. What nonsense about staying in camps to cook and wash clothes is needless to say, who will wear clothes washed by your hands full of scars and ulcers and eat things cooked by your hands with pus?

In addition to dengue fever and foot rot disease, "return fever" is also the most terrible disease in the tropical jungle. The patient has a periodic fever, usually for seven days when he had a first fever, and then for seven days when he had a second fever for five or six days, and then for five or six days when he had a second fever. The third fever repeated, and tortured the sick Japanese soldiers to death.

At the same time, the interval time is getting shorter and the fever is getting more and more frequent, so it is called "return fever". I don't know how many Japanese soldiers were repeatedly tortured by "return fever", drying their qi and blood, and tragically died when they were no longer invisible.

In addition to the above major damages, hunger is a bigger enemy.

Without food supplies, Japanese soldiers could only obtain food from the primitive deep forest all day long. Tens of thousands of Japanese officers and soldiers who infiltrated the jungle became a terrible force to compete with animals in the jungle. They were like a group of big locusts, wherever they passed, the bark and grass roots were all affected, and birds and beasts fled in panic.

In addition, it is also a good thing to ambush the US military squad to obtain food from the opponent's corpses. At the beginning, the Japanese devils were able to succeed in sneak attacks.

When the US military gradually adapted to this tactic, although it was not impossible to completely prevent the other side and could completely effectively prevent it, a large number of US military dispatched with platoons as the smallest combat units, which also prevented the Japanese army from cleaning the battlefield after killing the other side.

The most important thing is that the Japanese army's ammunition is getting less and less. After gradually losing the ammunition supplies and seizing the opponent's weapons and ammunition, the Japanese army began to reveal their ugly nature and focused their attention on the bodies of their dead soldiers!
