As for how to deal with the cities on the Japanese island, Wang Laohu, the commander-in-chief of the bandit operations, has only one attitude:

Just wipe it off the face of the earth.

After informing Deputy Commander-in-Chief Cao Bin of his attitude, the staff of the General Headquarters and the Air Force quickly came up with a solution.

At 10:30 in the morning, a total of 600 bombers were divided into three formations and arrived at the three defense lines of the Japanese 16th Front in front of the landing site.

These lines of defense are based on coal cities, supporting and cooperating with each other, and there are also a large number of civilian volunteers in underground tunnels ready to launch suicide attacks.

It is not accurate to say that it is a city, it can only be regarded as a very small town.

There are large coal mines on the edge of every city, and various buildings are built according to the mines.

Regarding the fact that the Japanese like to dig holes, and especially like to use mine tunnels, the Air Force quickly came up with countermeasures to make bombing no longer a simple matter of scratching the surface.

Air Force Major General Bai Yunqing personally directed the erasure operation.

The 200 Super Fortresses at the front are loaded with Pangolin ground-penetrating bombs.

After the bombers arrived above the Japanese defense lines, the ground-penetrating bombs roared into the ground, making a series of pop-pop sounds.

Then the delayed fuse was activated, and the earth-penetrating bomb exploded underground.

The focus of the attack was on the Japanese mine fortifications.

A large number of brick bombs penetrated into the ground, and after the explosion, they completely changed the underground rock structure.

Due to years of coal mining operations, the surface of the mine is still intact, but the interior is riddled with holes.

The attack of the ground-penetrating bomb caused the mine that was already riddled with holes to completely collapse, smoke and dust rose into the sky, and the landscape was completely reshaped.

Mines collapsed one after another, and tens of thousands of Japanese people were buried in them.

These people thought that the mine tunnels were the safest and could prevent all bomb attacks.

But I never expected that Zhongxia would actually have a bomb called pangolin.

The collapse of the mine caused a chain reaction. The Japanese army's tunnels had lost their functions of quickly transporting troops and avoiding bullets and artillery fire.

The headquarters of the Japanese 44th Division was a reinforced concrete building. A group of middle and senior generals of the 44th Division watched with their own eyes as the mines in front of them collapsed one after another like building blocks.

Smoke and dust filled the sky from the ground. After the smoke and dust dispersed, the scene in front of us had changed dramatically.

The mountains marked on military maps have disappeared, and some ravines have been filled in with flat land.

The underground world was no longer safe, and Japanese soldiers and civilians frantically emerged from the ruins.

All of them had gray faces and frightened eyes.

After coming out, the scene in front of them left them stunned in place.

The first batch of bomber ships left, but the second and third batches followed.

The people who escaped had no time to rescue the villagers who were buried underground, and no time to feel sad. When they saw the new bombers flying overhead, they immediately dispersed.

The second and third batches of bombers carried incendiary bombs and white phosphorus bombs.

The purpose of the first round of bombing was to destroy mines and urban tunnels and drive out the Japanese hiding underground.

The next purpose is to attack the enemy's effective forces, including all regular troops and civilian volunteers.

Incendiary bombs and white phosphorus bombs became the most powerful weapons, capable of causing heavy damage to the Japanese who escaped and adding strong psychological shock.

"call!"

"boom!"

The incendiary bomb exploded violently when it hit the ground, and the roaring flames spread and flowed around.

The white phosphorus bomb exploded in the air, sending burning white ribbons into the air.

The Japanese who fled in panic looked up and saw the white light filling the sky, and then the white light hit them like raindrops.

The clothes began to burn the flesh, giving off a burning smell.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Many people could no longer run, lying on the ground wailing, their bloody hands scratching all over their bodies, as if they were suffering unprecedented pain.

The bones are destroyed and the marrow is destroyed!

The flames are flowing and white phosphorus is flying.

The screams were swallowed up by the roar of the burning fire!

The Japanese people who were buried in the ground waiting for rescue suddenly saw flames flowing in along the cracks in the rocks. They were stunned for a while, and then began to desperately pull at the surrounding rocks and coal mountains.

The bombings came one after another, each wave different.

Ogasawara escaped from the collapsed tunnel with his sharp reflexes. Before he had time to sigh that the mines had turned into flat ground, white raindrops began to fall overhead.

He instinctively felt the threat and used all his strength to escape from the white smoke.

I finally hid in a mud house of a miner's house, but I still felt scared.

After gasping for breath for a few times, he suddenly felt a heartbreaking pain in his arm.

When he looked down, a black hole the size of his index finger appeared on his muscles.

"ah!!!"

A shrill scream came from the broken earth house.

...

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the 26th Group Army, with an armored division of the 32nd Armored Group Army as the vanguard, began to advance toward Naofa-Yuqiao line in a mighty manner.

The sky ahead was obscured by the black smoke released when napalm burned. The Zhongxia soldiers at the front had to wear gas masks, otherwise the polluted air would burn their lungs.

Ground-penetrating bombs, incendiary bombs, and white phosphorus bombs did not completely eliminate the Japanese on the defense line. After advancing to the core area of ​​the defense line, the armored division began to encounter fierce resistance.

However, the Japs no longer have a tunnel through which they can launch surprise attacks, and they no longer have a desperate civilian volunteer team. In a face-to-face confrontation, they are no match for the Zhongxia army.

The wars of the past few years have proven this repeatedly.

Although the Japanese resistance was fierce, the 26th Army and the Armored Division were able to advance steadily.

The battle started at two o'clock in the afternoon and lasted until dawn the next day.

Before the sun came up, the 26th Army captured Ashiya City, Nakata City, Nogata City, Otake Town and other places on the first line of defense of the Japanese 16th Front Army.

Defeated the Japanese 44th Division, 77th Division, 73rd Division, etc., and captured more than 60,000 civilian volunteer members holding sickles, sticks, farm tools, iron drills, shovels, etc.

The buildings in the city were burned to ashes by napalm, and Nakata City, Nogata City, etc. were wiped out.

After it got light, the naturalized army led the newly formed local puppet army into the battlefield and began to collect corpses.

Ifo Mizukawa and Shinpei Fukuei saw countless scenes that shocked them.

Some of the corpses on the battlefield were left with only white bones; some turned into coke in the ashes and turned into powder at the slightest touch; some looked frightened and died in the most painful way; some died in the most painful way;

The mother protected her children, both of them turned into skeletons.

Next to the various corpses were crude and crude weapons.

The puppet soldiers who had been newly formed in the naturalized army were stunned when they saw this scene. It was hard to imagine what happened yesterday.

Io Mizukawa swallowed hard and was about to speak when the sound of a Hummer braking was heard behind him.

A messenger officer from the general headquarters quickly came to Mizukawa Ifo and said in a stiff voice:

"The commander-in-chief has ordered that the heads of all corpses be cut off and the bodies be disposed of in a centralized manner to avoid diseases."

Ifo Mizukawa and Shinpei Furong looked at each other, neither of them quite understood the order. The former asked:

"What are you doing with your head chopped off?"

"Seal it with lime and build the Jingguan!"

After the ordering officer finished speaking, he strode away.
Chapter completed!
