MTL - Jagged Germany

"Marshal, the 3rd Army has defeated the 56th Corps, the 3rd Armored Division, and the 21st Mechanized Infantry Division of the Japanese Army. The troops directly under the Front Army are advancing eastward. The 25th Army Group is landing." Marshal Bock, commander of the F Group Army Group, reported.

   Marshal Manstein nodded. After the German army successfully landed on Kyushu Island, it was almost impossible for the island country army to stop the German army. Next, the German army will quickly capture the entire Kyushu Island. And the resistance of the island army will be completely crushed.

   "Are you ready for the landing on Shikoku and Honshu?" Marshal Manstein asked.

"Your Excellency, Marshal, the 27th Army will land on Shikoku Island tomorrow. The army of the island country deployed on Shikoku Island has only 4 divisions, an independent mixed brigade, an artillery headquarters and two tank regiments. With the strength of the 27th Army, it is enough to sweep them away! The 28th Army will land in Xiaguan the day after tomorrow, and advance to Honshu Island from here!" Marshal Bock replied.

   "Well, let's implement this plan!" Marshal Manstein said.

   "Army Group G ready?" Marshal Manstein looked at the commander of Army Group G, Marshal Keitel.

"Your Excellency the Marshal, the entire G Army Group is ready. The 4th Army will land tomorrow in Ise, Ise Bay, and the 16th Army will land in Hamamatsu. After that, the other groups of the G Army Group will They will land one after another, sweep across the entire Ise Bay, and send part of the army to attack north and south." Marshal Keitel said.

   Marshal Manstein nodded. The arrangement of the Pacific Theater Command is that the F Group Army Group will land from Kyushu Island and then attack north. Army Group G landed in Ise Bay and attacked south and north respectively. In this case, the southern part of the island country can be occupied. As for the northern part of Honshu Island, this is also the focus of the island nation's defense. Army Group H and Army Group E of the Imperial Army will launch an offensive later.

  Although the German navy and air force are very powerful, it is undoubtedly very difficult to support the actions of the German army on a large scale at the same time. Therefore, after both Army Group F and Army Group G have landed, their own firepower will be enough to crush the islanders. In this way, the Imperial Navy and Air Force will be able to fully support the actions of Army Group H and Army Group E.

  Kyushu Island, Kumamoto City.

  The main force of the 13th Army of the German F Army Group began to attack the island country army entrenched in Kumamoto. The 127th Infantry Division and the 128th Infantry Division under the Group Army are responsible for sweeping the towns and villages around Kumamoto City, clearing the island army in these places, and ensuring the safety of the logistics supply line.

  During the ten days since the German army landed on Kyushu Island, there have been many attacks on the German logistics supply line by Japanese military forces and even civilians.

  The strength of the German army is inseparable from its firepower. Without strong firepower, the German army's powerful combat power would be greatly reduced. But powerful firepower requires a lot of supplies. This also makes the protection of the logistics supply line the first priority for the German army on the battlefield.

  North of Kumamoto City, Kikuyo-cho.

   A brigade of the 109th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Island Army stationed here was defeated, and the remnants fled to the mountains. The main force of the 1st Regiment of the 128th Infantry Division of the German Army continued to pursue and at the same time sent a company into the village to ensure that there were no island soldiers and other armed personnel in the village.

  When the German soldiers entered the village, they found a village with closed doors. The islanders here seemed to be frightened.

   "Knock on the door, check the houses one by one, and don't let any island soldiers and armed personnel go. Remind again, pay attention to safety!" The captain and company commander ordered.

   "Yes, sir!" The German soldiers replied one after another.

   "Open the door, open the door!"

  Two German soldiers held semi-automatic rifles and forcibly pushed away a wooden house.

   Inside was an old man. The old man looked in horror at the German soldiers who pushed the door in, and seemed to be frightened.

   "No armed men, go to the next room!"

   A German soldier said.

  Another German soldier nodded and turned to leave.

   But at this time, the old man took out a pistol from his arms.

   "Bang! Bang!"

   The pistol fired, and two German soldiers were hit and fell to the ground.

   "Shit! Kill him!"

   A German squad leader roared loudly.

"Da da da!"

  Squad opened fire with a machine gun, and the island old man was directly beaten into a honeycomb.

   "Remind again, pay attention to safety! Shoot immediately if you find a threat! Don't care about the lives of these islanders!" The German captain and company commander gave the order with a dark face.

  The elite soldiers under his command were not killed on the dangerous battlefield, but died here, which is really worthless.

   "Yes, sir!" The German soldiers replied with a chill in their hearts.

   "John, push open the door of that thatched hut, and I will cover behind you!" A young German soldier aimed a rifle at a thatched hut.

   "Okay, Hans!" John nodded and pushed away a thatched hut.

  After the door was pushed open, an island boy looked at him indifferently.

   "Hi, boy!" John greeted with a smile. Then he turned around and said to Hans, "There's no danger, it's just a child!"

   "Oh, God! John, lie down!" Hans was terrified.

  John turned his head suspiciously, and saw a grenade smoking in the boy's hand.

   "Oh, **** it!" John yelled.

   "Boom!"

   The grenade exploded and the boy was blown to pieces. John was also killed.

  After the German army entered the village, they were constantly attacked by the islanders. Although these islanders were civilians, now they have turned into thugs.

  Whether they are men, women, old or young, they all seem to be crazy. They took rifles, pistols, grenades, and even agricultural tools and kitchen knives to attack the German troops who entered the village.

  Some German soldiers did not open fire immediately because the opponent was a civilian. But they paid a heavy price for it. Many people died in the attacks of these islanders.

  The German army was constantly attacked by these islanders on the mainland of the island country, and even more German soldiers died at the hands of these islanders than those who died in the hands of the island army on the frontal battlefield.

   "Bastard! Order the frontline troops to stop being kind to those islanders! Being kind to them is to be cruel to yourself!" Marshal Manstein issued such an order with a dark face.
