    After many years of battlefield career, commanders at all levels of the division have developed their own skills. Tang Qiusheng is undoubtedly the most outstanding one. He came up with the tactics of combining air and ground artillery fire to specifically attack Japanese officers, precise sniping in the air by fighter jets, and artillery fire.  Under the guidance of the artillery observation post, artillery shells landed accurately next to the Japanese officers, exploding into a cloud of blood mist and blowing away several Japanese soldiers.

    Although such tactics only killed a large number of Japanese officers, the deterrent effect was huge. With each Japanese officer holding his command knife high, he might become a soldier with blood holes all over his body.  The corpses, or exploded into pieces of meat flying in the sky with a loud noise, and the troops lacking the command of officers were just a pile of scattered sand, which shook the morale and morale of the troops.

    The Japanese charge formation was in disarray, and their originally numb but firm steps were in disarray. I don¡¯t know which troop was it. It couldn¡¯t hold on first and retreated. It was like opening a hole in the long embankment, growing from small to large, and then  What followed was a complete rout, and the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops were shaken as a whole. No one could really ignore the fighter jets hovering in the sky and the roaring artillery shells.

    The retreat of some of the Japanese assault troops caused a retreat across the entire front. Tang Qiusheng breathed a sigh of relief, put down his binoculars, and said to Major General Yu Guanghan, chief of staff of the Sulu Mobile Corps: "Guanghan, order the artillery to add another fire, and the artillery attack  The Japanese troops at the front, drive them back!¡±

    The shells roared down, causing the ground to tremble, and fireworks were everywhere. The bodies of the Japanese soldiers were shattered in the explosion. On the battlefield in the northwest of Honshu Island, the last desperate struggle of hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers was shattered, leaving behind several  Thousands of corpses were once again driven back to the original encirclement.

    Encirclement battles on two battlefields on Honshu Island.  On the fifteenth day, sporadic Japanese soldiers began to appear in the encirclement.  Taking advantage of the darkness, he ran to the division's position with bare hands and surrendered.  These Japanese soldiers who took the initiative to surrender all had leaflets in their arms. As soon as they entered the position, they hurriedly took them out of their arms, shouting loudly for fear of being shot.

    Over one night, on the battlefield in the northwest of Honshu Island, Japanese soldiers came over and surrendered.  There were actually thousands of them. These Japanese prisoners were all gathered together and detained. After dawn, Tang Qiusheng led his staff and guards to the temporary prisoner of war camp.

    An open space was surrounded by a temporary barbed wire fence, which was only half a person tall. Its symbolic significance was greater than its practical effect. Thousands of Japanese soldiers were captured.  They sat on the ground dejectedly, their eyes dull and their faces dull.  Seeing Tang Qiusheng approaching surrounded by many entourages, the Japanese prisoners were in a commotion and more of a fear.

    Tang Qiusheng¡¯s eyes were cold, filled with inexorable disgust and hatred. In his opinion, the miserable appearance of these Japanese prisoners of war was indescribable. They were just a group of bastards wearing ragged military uniforms, with sallow faces and dull eyes.  A few years ago, it was raging across China and occupying the entire Northeast.  Invading North China and Songhu, what a turn of events!

    At this time.  A Japanese prisoner suddenly ran out like crazy and quickly rushed in front of Tang Qiusheng. The low barbed wire fence could not block him at all. The guards immediately raised their submachine guns. Tang Qiusheng waved his hands. He wanted to see  Look, what tricks can this Japanese prisoner do?

    This Japanese prisoner of war, whose rank on his collar insignia indicated he was a captain, ran to the barbed wire fence and suddenly fell to his knees, shouting loudly and waving his hands in the air nervously, "Translator, what's going on?" Tang Tang  Qiu Sheng said to the translator.

    The translator asked a few questions and then said: "Deputy division commander, this Japanese captain said that he and thousands of soldiers voluntarily laid down their weapons and surrendered, and should enjoy the treatment of prisoners of war!"

    "Ask them what kind of treatment they want?" Tang Qiusheng said calmly.

    The translator spoke to the Japanese captain and said, "Deputy division commander, this Japanese prisoner of war said that he needs water and food. They haven't had food for several days!"

    "Satisfy them!" Tang Qiusheng said: "After the Japanese prisoners of war have eaten their fill, gather together the officers above second lieutenant among the prisoners of war and escort them to my headquarters!"

    On the way back to the headquarters, Chief of Staff Yu Guanghan was very puzzled and asked: "Deputy division commander, what do you see these little Japanese prisoners doing?" Jing Zhanqi, deputy commander of the 29th Corps, was equally puzzled.

    Tang Qiusheng said somewhat mysteriously: "Put these prisoners back!"

    "Huh?" Yu Guanghan and Jing Zhanqi looked at each other, neither understanding what Tang Qiusheng meant.

    Tang Qiusheng said with a smile: "It was the inspiration given to me by the division commander in the order. Think about it. Let the thousands of Japanese soldiers who surrendered voluntarily go back after having a full meal. This will relieve the worries of the Japanese soldiers after they surrender."  , life is not in danger, and secondly, you can tell the Japanese soldiers that if you surrender, you will have food and water to avoid?Starve to death and die of thirst, psychological offensive? If you want to capture more prisoners, this move is more effective than cannonballs and bombs!  "

    After eating and drinking enough water, dozens of Japanese junior officers were brought to Tang Qiusheng's headquarters. Through a translator, he simply told these junior Japanese officers, "I will let you go back immediately, and you will be given back."  You take away enough food and water, and you don¡¯t need to do anything. You just tell other Japanese officers and soldiers what you have experienced! Of course, you can also refuse, but it will not affect your release!¡±

    After listening to the translator, these junior Japanese military officers could hardly believe their ears. They knew that the Chinese general in front of them was the one who decided their lives. It was not until the translator urged them repeatedly that these junior Japanese military officers came with  Thousands of surrendered Japanese soldiers passed through the forward positions and returned to the encirclement.

    Tang Qiusheng watched the surrendered Japanese officers and soldiers disappear from sight, and said to Chief of Staff Yu Guanghan: "Guanghan, contact the Theater Joint Logistics Department immediately to prepare a large number of ships to transport Japanese prisoners. During the next period,  We are busy now. In addition, we will transfer the 13th Brigade of the Southeast Mobile Corps to take on the task of escorting prisoners of war, and notify the rear area to establish a prisoner-of-war camp in the Datian area, with a scale of about 500,000 people!"

    "Deputy Commander, are you so sure? The little Japs must be lining up to surrender?" Yu Guanghan said with wide eyes and disbelief.

    Tang Qiuli smiled calmly and said, "Facts speak louder than words, let's wait and see!"

    What happened next verified Tang Qiusheng's words. After thousands of well-fed and drunk Japanese officers and soldiers returned to the encirclement, it caused a chain reaction. Within a few days, Japanese officers and soldiers continued to come to surrender.  , at first, it was a spontaneous and sporadic act, but later it evolved into an organized Japanese soldier, lining up to surrender. On the largest day, more than 30,000 Japanese soldiers surrendered.

    What's interesting is that in different directions and on different battlefields, Tang Qiuli also adopted the same method to disintegrate the Japanese soldiers in the encirclement. The methods he used were more active, not only giving food to the Japanese officers and soldiers who surrendered, but  After having enough food and water, he personally came forward and used proficient Japanese to lecture the surrendering Japanese troops.

    Tang Qiuli did not hide his identity, "You must be all curious. I am Tang Qiuli, vice chairman of the Military Commission of the Chinese National Government and commander of the North China Division. By the way, you Japanese soldiers gave me a nickname, '  China Devil! 'Yes, it's me. I also have another position, the supreme commander of the millions of Chinese troops attacking Japan!"

    The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, the name of the China Devil Tang Qiuli is a household name in Japan, to the extent that it can make children cry at night. Especially in the Japanese military circles, this nickname is as scary as a ferocious god.  , I don¡¯t know how many famous Japanese military generals and Japanese troops were destroyed in the hands of this person, and it was this person who killed the mainland. Now, I finally see the true face, which is completely different from what the base camp advertised.

    The siege battles on the northwest battlefield and the northeastern battlefield of Honshu lasted for nearly a month. Except for the first ten days, which were bloody and bloody, in the remaining two weeks, the only thing the division troops did was  The mission of the Japanese Army was to receive a large number of Japanese officers and soldiers who came to surrender every day. Both battlefields became huge temporary prisoner of war camps.

    At this time, Tang Qiusheng ordered the prisoner-of-war camp established in the stay area in advance, which played a huge role. It was impossible for so many Japanese prisoners to stay where they were. Therefore, some of the fleets of the Joint Logistics Department transporting supplies and ammunition were busy and could not go back and forth.  Unloaded, boatloads of Japanese prisoners were escorted to prisoner-of-war camps on the Korean Peninsula and began their prisoner-of-war career.

    In the encirclement of the northeastern battlefield and northwest battlefield of Honshu Island, there were originally more than 900,000 Japanese troops. According to statistics, more than 700,000 Japanese officers and soldiers surrendered one after another, and more than 100,000 people starved to death.  The remaining 100,000 people are all diehards who still cling to the little obsession in their hearts. They will not leave even if they are given a way to live. They end their lives in various ways and are loyal to their bullshit emperor. Of course  , most of them commit suicide by caesarean section.

    Later, when the soldiers cleaning the battlefield, they saw a bloody scene after hundreds of thousands of people committed suicide. It was similar to a slaughterhouse. There were corpses everywhere, guns and ammunition were discarded randomly, and there was nothing to eat.  The bark of the tree was completely stripped off.

    The two largest battles in the attack on the Japanese mainland, the northwest battle of Honshu Island and the northeastern battle, ended in this way. The battle lasted for nearly two months, and a total of more than 1.9 million Japanese troops were annihilated and more than 700,000 were captured.  People, the two largest heavy military groups of the Japanese army were completely destroyed, and the Japanese lost their biggest capital.

    In this battle, the participating corps of the division suffered a total of more than 100,000 casualties, including more than 40,000 killed in action. The ratio of losses between the enemy and ourselves was nearly 200,000.First, it was a glorious victory. On the third day after the battle, Tang Qiuli issued a new combat order to all the troops, "Each regiment, immediately use the fastest and most violent actions to completely encircle Tokyo!"
