Island hopping. First the USA Navy invaded certain islands in the Pacific to try and force the Japanese back to Japan. They captured some islands with airbases, and from those islands, sent B-29s to Japan to burn a great many Japanese cities to the ground. Finally when the Japanese refused to surrender, instead of invading Japan, which would have cost hundreds of thousands of casualties, the USA dropped two atomic bombs, and finally Japan surrendered.
