Chapter 888: Heavy Casualties

In the nearby land, the most likely place for people to hide was this seemingly dense forest.

The forest stretched to a small hill not far away, with weeds and dense shrubs, and the lush leaves made it clear this was the best place to hide.

It was for this reason that the forest, along with the nearby hill, became a focal point for the Australasian Air Force bombings.

And because it was a focal point, the bombing had to be precise.

Just the small area of the forest at the foot of the hill alone was targeted with hundreds of bombs and dozens of missiles, leveling the forest to the ground.

After the bombing, not to mention finding a tree, it was nearly impossible to find even a complete branch. The air was filled with smoke and the smell of blood, and the ground beneath the forest had been plowed several times by bombs, exposing charred, moist soil emitting white smoke.
