This banzai stuff wont help you in a modern war. They didnt know when to retreat and regroup – if they are overwhelmed they simply charged like mad men lol

Battle of Tarawa Atoll. US Marines 1696 killed. Japanese 4600. This was an assault on a fortified island across open water and a reef. Still the attacker lost less than defender.

It takes competent NCOs to ensure this. That is something a conscript force does not have and a veteran force has in abundance.

This is why Sun Tzu recommends leaving a visible escape path to the enemy.
