    When Adachi Twenty-san took Hattori Hiroshi and a guard squadron to the No. 1 exit of the cave where they were hiding, they found that most of the cave entrance had been watered.

    The methods used by the Chinese military are very destructive.

    They did not choose to blow up the cave entrance directly because previous experience had told them that blowing up the cave entrance directly would only make the cave entrance bigger and bigger.

    Therefore, this time the Chinese army chose to bomb the mountain above the cave entrance.

    And this also has the advantage of avoiding the obstruction of the Japanese army.

    The Chinese army first dug several large holes in the mountain on top of the cave entrance, and then buried a large amount of high explosives.

    With just one blast, less than half of the mountain on top of the cave entrance collapsed. Millions of square meters of soil and stones suddenly fell down, blocking most of the entire cave entrance.

    However, if it is just earth and stone, the Japanese army can still clear it.

    So, pour the concrete immediately!

    Due to the obstruction of the earth and stone, the Japanese army's horizontal firepower in the cave became a display, not to mention the direct firepower.

    So the only thing Anda 23 could do was to put in infantry to charge outside the cave, trying to seize control of the cave entrance, thereby preventing the Chinese from continuing to pour concrete at the cave entrance.

    However, the reality is extremely cruel.

    The Chinese army has already been prepared and deployed a large number of machine guns at the entrance of the cave.

    The result was that as soon as the counterattacking Japanese troops rushed out of the cave, they were met with intensive machine gun fire. Under the brutal firepower, the Japanese troops who fought back were quickly killed and injured.

    Then, these dead Japanese soldiers were poured directly into the concrete.

    In just one day, all six exits of the cave where Anda 23 was hiding were blocked with concrete by the Chinese army.

    When the last entrance to the cave was blocked, the cave became completely dark. Although there were diesel generators, candles and other lighting objects in the cave, Anda Twenty-Three and the hundreds of Japs behind him had fallen into eternity.  in the darkness.

    ¡­¡­

    In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

    The code of Han Lin, the acting commander-in-chief of the 22nd Army, was finally removed and he became the real commander-in-chief, but his military rank was still only major general.

    There is no difference from the other nine division commanders under him.

    This is also a distinctive feature of the Myanmar Theater or the Chinese Expeditionary Force.

    Although the war is not over yet, Zhong Yi has already begun to try to separate job titles.

    To put it bluntly, the commander-in-chief of the group army is just a position. It is only temporarily established when there is a combat mission. In normal times, there is no such position.

    Normally, the division is directly under the commander of the war zone.

    In other words, the commander¡¯s department directly manages 40 infantry divisions, 10 artillery brigades, 10 armored brigades, plus one aviation division.

    But soon, 40 infantry divisions will become 80 infantry divisions.

    Because 1 million strong men recruited from the country have arrived in Myanmar.

    These 1 million young men will undergo a three-month period of high-intensity training, and then 500,000 of them will be eliminated. Those 500,000 eliminated young men who want to return to China will be given 10 yuan in ocean tolls, and those who are willing to stay,  They will be incorporated into overseas Chinese farms or work in factories in northern Myanmar's industrial zones.

    The remaining 500,000 strong men will be mixed with the existing more than 400,000 veterans.

    After the mixed formation, the Chinese Expeditionary Force will have 80 infantry divisions, 20 artillery brigades, 20 armored brigades, and 20 aviation groups.

    Of course, the artillery brigade, armored brigade and aviation group cannot be fully staffed at once.

    This also requires relying on the Northern Myanmar Industrial Zone to be put into production as soon as possible and to continuously provide weapons and equipment to the expeditionary force.

    As for the U.S. government, it has stopped continuing to provide weapons to the Asian battlefield and has instead shifted its focus to the African battlefield and the European battlefield.

    But it¡¯s still a little early to say this.

    At the moment, the Chinese Expeditionary Force has just wiped out the Japanese 27th Army.

    And strictly speaking, it has not been completely eradicated. There are still some caves that hide unknown entrances, or the Japanese troops in the caves have found their exits. So from time to time, Japanese troops will appear and attack those stationed in the Arakan Mountains.  The expeditionary force launched an attack.

    Of course, such an attack has nothing to do with the overall situation.

    Generally speaking, the Second Battle of Mandalay or the Battle of Burma has come to a real end.

    This battle was extremely brutal, and the Chinese expeditionOn the other hand, more than 500,000 troops participated in the war, more than 50,000 were killed and more than 200,000 were injured!

    The attrition ratio actually reached 50%!

    "It's just that the Japanese army was even worse.

    The Japanese Army participated in the war with 500,000 people from five armies and 20 divisions. In the end, only the right-wing 30th Army had less than 5,000 people who crossed the Thai-Myanmar border and fled into Thailand.

    The other 495,000 people were all buried in Myanmar.

    A large group of senior generals with rich command and combat experience, including Adachi Twenty-three, Sasaki Yuichi, Mutaguchi Renya, Honma Masaharu, and Okabe Naosaburo, were all buried in Myanmar.

    In this battle, it is no exaggeration to say that the Japanese army was really exhausted.

    ¡­¡­

    The battle in Myanmar has come to an end, but fierce fighting is still going on in the African battlefield and the European battlefield.

    Especially on the African battlefield, with one million German troops and a large number of tanks and heavy artillery arriving in Africa, Rommel finally had the powerful weapons he had dreamed of.

    Rommel, armed with heavy troops, immediately launched a fierce attack on the American and British coalition forces.

    Therefore, the reason why the U.S. government canceled aid to Asia is actually out of helplessness.

    Because the German army put too much pressure on the Allies in the African battlefield, and the Soviet Red Army on the eastern front of Europe was also in danger, the U.S. government had no choice but to increase investment in these two directions.

    However, even with the all-out support from the U.S. government, the U.S-British coalition forces were still overwhelmed by the German-Italian coalition forces on the African battlefield.

    So far, the U.S. and British coalition forces have been suppressed in the Alamein area by the German army and are unable to revive.

    Fortunately, due to the U.S. government¡¯s investment in Africa regardless of cost, domestically produced fighter jets, artillery, and tanks were put into Africa for free, causing the firepower density in the Alamein region to reach an extremely terrifying level.

    Because of this, the German army is also very uncomfortable now. For the German army, the last remaining Alamein area has become a copper pea that cannot be steamed, cooked, smashed, or hammered flat!

    In short, the African battlefield has fallen into a terrible balance.

    Whether Wulun is an Allied force or an Axis Allied force, a huge amount of manpower and material resources must be invested every day, and in a short period of time, it is impossible to see which direction the balance of victory and defeat will tilt.

    The only variable is the battlefield on the Eastern Front in Europe.

    With the German army investing more than 200 infantry divisions on the Eastern Front battlefield, the Soviet Red Army finally showed signs of weakness.

    As the pressure on the European battlefield continued to increase, the Soviet high command was forced to continuously mobilize troops from the Far East to Europe.

    By early July 1941, the number of Soviet troops in the Far East had dropped to less than 500,000, and the number of artillery, aircraft and tanks had also dropped to a low value.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
