As everyone knows, judging from the battlefield performance in World War II, the Japanese army did have the capital to be arrogant; after the defeat of the war, many soldiers and officers committed suicide by seppuku, which is amazing. Although these actions are a bit stupid, they also illustrate the madness of the Japanese army.
However, as an arrogant and barbaric army, the Japanese army seems to be not afraid of anything, but it also has times when it is extremely cowardly, especially the following 4, which it still does not want to mention.
First, the bloody battle of Taierzhuang in 1938, the victory of the Battle of Taierzhuang was the biggest victory since the Anti-Japanese War, and the Japanese army suffered more than 20,000 casualties. The battle was of great significance, as it killed and injured the living forces of the Japanese army on a large scale, completely shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese army, and made the Japanese army extremely embarrassed. The Japanese had the advantage that they could have mobilized more reinforcements for a decisive battle and then won the victory, but because the Japanese army was too arrogant, they were finally hit by our army.
The second, the Battle of Kunlun Pass in December 1939, was the first victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese arrogantly believed that in addition to the Chinese army defending and sneak attacking, the Chinese did not dare and could not launch an attack. As a result, to Japan's surprise, China really took the strategic location of Kunlun Pass. The battle lasted nearly 20 days, and the Japanese killed more than 4,000 people and captured 100. After the battle, a Japanese army grave was built under the Martyrs' Cemetery Hill, and two large characters were engraved on the tombstone: "Wazuka"!
Third, in the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944, the Japanese aircraft carrier force was completely destroyed. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese army had also lost naval battles before the battle, but the Japanese army basically still had a strong naval force. However, the Battle of Leyte Gulf wiped out the main naval force, and the situation of Japan's future war took a sharp turn for the worse. In fact, Japan's naval strength in the later period was much worse than before, and it should have fought a naval guerrilla war, but the Japanese army had to fight hard, and the result was a failure!
Fourth, in the decisive battle of the Northeast in August 1945, the Japanese Kwantung Army was completely annihilated. In August 1945, the U.S. military dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, which made the Soviet Union see a crisis, and the United States had the strength to deal with Japan alone. Therefore, on August 8, the Soviet Union launched a carpet attack on the Kwantung Army entrenched in northeast China, and the battle was like a devastating momentum, killing 84,000 Japanese troops and easily capturing 600,000 Japanese Kwantung Army. In this battle, Japan really fought to the extreme.
Of course, there are also some battles related to the Japanese army's nest, such as the "Battle of Changsha", the "Battle of Kuah Island", and the incident of the crocodile on Langli Island eating more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers, etc., all of which made the Japanese army very nested. Frankly speaking, the Japanese army is more than a nest, and we are not only happy, but also feel a little sad, because the Japanese army's nest is all bought by many martyrs with flesh and blood!
What do you think about the nest of the Japanese army?
