"At most 20,000 people?" Higakurimiya Nohiko looked at Machijiri Yoshiki with gloomy eyes and asked, "Machijiri, do you think the information provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs Special High-tech Technology is credible?"

"Hayi!" Machijirikidun said first, "I think it's still credible."

"Shinozuka!" Higashinomiya Nianhiko turned his gaze to Yoshio Shinozuka who had just arrived at the headquarters, and asked, "Do you think it's credible?"

Yoshio Shinozuka pondered for a moment and said, "It's logically credible."

"Is that true?" said Higashinori Miyagi, "Shinozuka, tell me your logic."

"Hayi!" Shinozuka Yoshio paused, "Before the war, the total strength of the Chinese army in Wuhan was about 150,000, which is undoubtedly because this has been widely confirmed!"

After a pause, Shinozuka Yoshio continued: "The total strength of our Second Army is as high as 210,000! But how many people are left in our Second Army now?"

"100,000!" Higakuramiya Nianhiko replied, "plus 20,000 wounded!"

Yoshio Shinozuka nodded slightly and continued, "That is to say, since the war in Wuhan began, our Second Army has suffered 120,000 casualties!"

"No, Shinozuka-kun, you were wrong. To be precise, 150,000 casualties were killed or killed!" Machijiri Ioki said, "because there are at least 30,000 wounded people who have recovered from injury and returned to the team!"

"Hayi!" Shinozuka Yoshio paused and said, "Since the war in Wuhan, our Second Army has suffered 150,000 casualties. Even if we subtracted the casualties of our 10th Division and the 3rd Division in the first phase, our Second Army also suffered 90,000 casualties!"

In the first phase of the Battle of Wuhan, the 10th Division and the 3rd Division could only attack the heavy artillery groups of Guishan Fortress and Snake Mountain Fortress, so the casualties were huge, but the national army had almost no casualties!

In this so-called first phase, nearly 60,000 people were killed and killed in the 10th Division of the Japanese Army!

After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka said again, "In terms of the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army and the Chinese Army, the casualties of one to two are still credible. In other words, the number of casualties of the Chinese Army should be around 180,000, but the Chinese Army controls the battlefield and their wounded personnel can be treated in time, so their number of people recovering from injury should be more than that of the Imperial Army. If nothing unexpected happens, the number of people should be around 50,000!"

"180,000 minus 50,000, that's 130,000!"

"So, the actual number of deaths of the Chinese army should be around 130,000!"

"According to this logic, the remaining troops of the Chinese army should be around 20,000!"

After listening to Yoshio Shinozuka's analysis, Higakuramiya Nianhiko's brows finally stretched.

"Yo Xi!" Higashijiugu Nianyan said happily, "If there are less than 20,000 Chinese troops left in Wuhan, then things will be easier. Even if the Imperial Army is consumed, they can be consumed to death!"

After a pause, Higashinomiya Naihiko was about to order a force attack again, Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly said, "Your Highness!"

Higakurimiya looked back at Yoshio Shinozuka and asked in surprise: "Shinozuka, do you have anything else to say?"

"Hayi!" Yoshio Shinozuka paused and said, "Your Highness, although there are only 20,000 Chinese troops left in Wuhan City, the last 20,000 people must be elite, with strong combat power. If you just attack hard, the imperial army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties! So you have to think of a way to dampen their morale and weaken their combat power!"

Higashinomiya Nianhiko asked, "So, what are the opinions of Shinozuka?"

Yoshio Shinozuka said: "I heard that Zhong Yi followed His Highness and also created a hero list to make a name for Chinese snipers who have excellent performance on the battlefield. And I also heard that these Chinese snipers are very popular in the Wuhan defenders, and even the entire Chinese military and civilians!"

After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka continued: "In a sense, this sniper on the hero list, especially the ones at the top, has become a star in the entire Wuhan and even China!"

"Suoga!" said Higakure-Miya Nianyan, "In other words, as long as you kill these snipers, you can severely attack the confidence of the Wuhan defenders and undermine their sharpness, and their combat effectiveness will inevitably decline!"

After a pause, Higakurimiya Nohiko asked Machijiri again and said, "Machijiri, what is the name of the top of the China hero list?"

"Two treasures!" Machijiri Oki replied.

"Yes, second treasure." Higashinomiya Nianhiko nodded and continued, "What a cheesy name! Where is this guy?"

Machijiri Ryoki replied: "He is on the left-wing battlefield of Hankou!"

"Yo Xi!" Higashikuromiya Nianhiko nodded happily, and turned to Shigeo Yamamoto, "Yamamoto, your special operations brigade is a strategic-level armed force. Unless it is a strategic-level target, it is not worth your action. I fully agree with this, but it should be no problem to recruit you snipers, right?"

"Hayi!" Yamamoto Shigeo bowed heavily and said, "Of course there is no problem."

"Yo Xi!" Higashikuramiya Nianhiko said happily, "Then send a sniper team to the left wing of Hankou. It is best to lead Hojo Kwan himself to find this second treasure and kill him!"

"Hayi!" Yamamoto Shigeo paused and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I promise you that this second treasure will never live tonight!"

"Yo Xi!" Higashikuramiya Nianhiko nodded happily.

Yamamoto Shigeo paused his head toward Higashinomiya and left.

...

The headquarters of the Second Army's Special Operations Brigade.

Hojo Ji and two snipers with the best relationship are getting together to listen to the radio.

On the radio, a female host on nhk radio is reporting the latest results of the hunting list!

In the first few days, Higakuru Miya Nihiko personally reported the results of the hunting list, but a few days later, he no longer had this interest and was handed over to the people from NHK Radio to broadcast.

Moreover, this episode is also live broadcast for all of Japan and even the world.

"The Imperial Soldiers of the Second Army and the audience of the Empire, today is August 20, Showa 2013. Now I will report to you the results of the hunting list that have just been updated today."

"The number one on the hunting list is Nakamura Shun, the 39th Infantry Regiment, and the number of hunting is 118!"

Later, nhk's host said a lot of compliments, but Hojo Ji and the snipers around him were no longer in the mood to listen.

Hojo Ji said with great disdain: "In nearly half a month, he only hunted 118 Chinese soldiers, and the average number is less than 10 people a day. Such a result can even top the hunting list!"

"Yes." A sniper named Hiroshima echoed, "If you change to Hojo-kun, you will only take one day to catch up with this record!"
