Although the command posts of these two Type C divisions possessed a certain amount of anti-aircraft weaponry, wanting to shoot down all-metal frame aircraft belonging to Australasia was inevitably nothing short of a fantasy.

The problem, however, was that since the command posts had already been exposed, trying to hide them anew became fraught with difficulty.
In order to deal a fatal blow to the Island Nation Army, the Australasian Air Force adopted the most lavish tactical approach: carpet bombing.
The good news was that most of these fighter planes and bombers took off from aircraft carriers, and naturally could also be resupplied with ammunition from those same aircraft carriers.
Although the ammunition carried by aircraft aboard aircraft carriers was also limited, it was still fully capable of sustaining this bombing campaign.
After over an hour spent replenishing ammunition, the Australasian Air Force launched carpet bombing runs across the surrounding areas where the command posts of the two Type C divisions were located.
They no longer cared whether they might hit Island Nation civilians; for the Australasian Air Force, there was only a single mission at this moment, which was to destroy the command posts of the Island Nation Army and leave their combat-ineffective Type C divisions leaderless, with no choice but to await their doom.
The bombing proved quite successful. The carpet bombing successfully destroyed the command posts of the two divisions and directly blew apart Shimou San'ken, the division commander of the division near the port.
Although the Australasian Air Force did not know precisely who the bombing had killed, destroying the command posts of two
