The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 783 For the long-term interests

When Sir Smith came to the Bronze Command, he first found a senior general who was close to him, hoping that he could help him return to Malaysia.

After the discussion, his friend agreed to help him, so he went up and down in the Bronze Commander of the British Army to persuade other senior generals to hold a small hearing and let Sir Smith talk about his views on the situation in Malaysia.

Sir Smith has lived in Malaysia for many years and is very familiar with Malaysia.

He discussed Malaysia's important strategic position in the Strait of Malacca, an important sea transportation hub, and with detailed data, discussed the benefits Malaysia's rich economic resources and annual taxation brought to Great Britain. He believed that No matter how much we pay, we must retake Malaysia.

He thinks that the reason why Gao Jiu stays in the army must be because of interests. He has a close relationship with Gao Jiu's father-in-law, Sir Li.

To be honest, the Bronze Commander of the British Army originally did not consider re-activating Sir Smith. They planned to send a new governor there after retaking Malaysia, but they found several candidates, and everyone believed that there was a Japanese influence. range, felt that it was too dangerous, and tried every means to evade it.

Since Sir Smith is willing to return to Malaysia, everyone is willing to give him this opportunity, so they agreed that he go to Malaysia to do high school work.

Sir Smith was very happy to be the Governor of Malaysia again, and he was ready to go as soon as he returned.

But then he discovered a serious problem, that is how he went to Malaysia.

Fortunately, in other places, Southeast Asia is the sphere of influence of the Japanese army.The Japanese army has army aviation and naval aviation, which can intercept his plane at any time. It is very likely that he was shot down before he arrived in Malaysia, and fell into the sea to feed the fish.

He was worrying, but the British Governor in Myanmar sent him a telegram, telling him that Mr. Gao had already made arrangements for him to fly to Malaysia with confidence.

Sir Smith knew that Gao Jiu was a very trustworthy person, since he said so, there would definitely be no problem.

But just to be on the safe side, he still visited Sir Li and Li Shasha.

When Li Shasha heard that Sir Smith was going to Malaysia, she let him relax, saying that since Gao Jiu promised to guarantee his safety, there would be no problem.

She proudly told about her flight to Southeast Asia, saying that the Japanese Air Force there obeyed Gao Jiu's command, and she also prepared some gifts for Sir Smith to bring to Gao Jiu.

Sir Smith flew to Malaysia on a British transport plane. When he arrived in the South China Sea, he really encountered a Japanese fighter jet.

As a result, as Li Shasha said, these Japanese fighter jets had obviously been notified by Gao Jiu in advance. Instead of attacking the transport plane that Smith and the others were flying on, they escorted them.

Sir Smith and the crew of the transport plane, despite being sweaty from nervousness, also got a fresh and interesting experience, which was enough for them to show off for a long time.

After arriving in Malaysia, Sir Smith had a meeting with Gao Jiu, and the two parties quickly reached an agreement.

After Sir Smith's application, the Bronze Commander of the British Army agreed to give Gao Jiu's coalition troops another 1500 million pounds.Sir Smith also promised that Malaysia will conduct business with Gao Jiu's Golden Triangle in the future.

This time Gao Jiu was quite satisfied, so he commanded the coalition troops to attack the Japanese army.

However, Gao Jiu still did not dispatch ground troops, but ordered all large-caliber artillery to violently bombard the positions of the Japanese 18th Division, and at the same time sent bombers to bombard.

For several days in a row, the 18th Division of the Japanese Army suffered serious losses under the fierce artillery fire and bombing attacks of the coalition forces, losing at least one-third of its troops.

This morning, an even more terrifying sight appeared.

60 bombers flew in the sky at once, and the bombs dropped by these bombers this time were all 623kg giant bombs.The 18th Division of the Japanese Army basically lost its combat effectiveness.

Also participating in the defense of Kuala Lumpur was the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army. Seeing the tragic situation of the 18th Division, they all felt their scalps go numb, for fear that the coalition forces would strike them.

The 21th Division of the Japanese Army had dealt with Gao Jiu very early. At the beginning, the [-]st Regiment of the [-]th Division, under the leadership of the regiment leader Hyogo Nakajima, went to attack Taohuashan. Surrendered and became the first unit of the Japanese army to surrender to the enemy.

After the Fifth Division arrived in Singapore, they also knew that Gao Jiu was in the Golden Triangle, which was not far from Singapore. The division head had always been worried that Gao Jiu would call over one day, but his worry was still fulfilled.

When Gao Jiu led the coalition troops into Malaysia, Yamashita ordered the Fifth Division to cross the Denver Strait to Malaysia.

The head of the fifth division was unwilling in his heart, but he couldn't disobey Yamashita Fengwen's order, so he had to bite the bullet and came to Kuala Lumpur.

After this stage of the battle, Gao Jiu beat off the Japanese naval fleet, the coalition forces had air superiority, and launched a violent bombing of the Japanese army. The head of the Fifth Division felt that something was wrong.

He didn't want to fight Gao Jiu, and once thought about getting in touch with Gao Jiu secretly, but he didn't have such a channel.

At this moment, a young man in local costume came to the forward position of the Fifth Division.

He said to the Japanese frontline commander: "I am the negotiator sent by Gao Jiu, and I want to see your division commander."

The commander of the Japanese army did not dare to make a decision, so he sent someone to the division headquarters.

Hearing that Gao Jiu sent someone to come to the door, the head of the division hurriedly asked someone to block the news to avoid being known by Yamashita Fengwen, and then secretly received the messenger sent by Gao Jiu.

The head of the division asked: "This gentleman, Mr. Gao sent you, what do you want to say?"

The messenger said: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Fifth Division has dealt with the Taohuashan guerrillas. When your ministry invaded my Taohuashan, Jiuye showed you kindness. Not only did you allow your troops to surrender, but also I put them all back, and from then on, our two sides have never interfered with each other, and there has been no conflict again.

My Jiu Ye is not a militant, and now Taohuashan maintains a good relationship with your Japanese army in Shandong, and basically there has been no conflict between the two sides.

Now Master Jiu doesn’t want to have a conflict with your 18th Division. You have also seen that the coalition forces are targeting the [-]th Division no matter whether it is bombardment or aircraft bombing. Not a single shell fell on your position. It is enough to prove the sincerity of my ninth master. "

The head of the fifth division knew that what he said was true. Gao Jiu had never attacked the troops of the fifth division from the beginning.

He nodded and said, "I have already seen this point. Please continue."

The messenger said: "My family's Jiuye has created a foundation in the Golden Triangle, and has maintained a good relationship with the surrounding Japanese troops. The two sides do not interfere with each other.

The reason why Master Jiu came to Malaysia was mainly to target Fengwen Yamashita.

Yamashita Fengwen was full and went to attack the Golden Triangle, but was severely taught by my Jiuye.

This time, the coalition forces formed by Lord Jiu are to eliminate Yamashita Fengwen.

As long as your fifth division does not participate in the war, the coalition forces will not attack your fifth division. "

The head of the division was already moved, and he asked: "If the Fifth Division does not participate in the war, how will Mr. Gao treat us?"

The messenger said: "Mr. Gao said that he can allow the Fifth Division to cross the Denver Strait and continue to occupy Singapore. After that, we will face each other across the sea, and if you want, we can do business.

Golden Triangle has a large number of best-selling industrial products, which can be provided to you at a suitable price to ensure that you can obtain huge economic benefits. "

The head of the fifth division said: "I understand Mr. Gao's meaning. Please go to rest first. Let us discuss it and give you an answer."

After the messenger left, the head of the fifth division called the chief of staff and several trusted generals to discuss the terms Gao Jiu offered.

To be honest, none of the generals of the Fifth Division wanted to fight Gao Jiu.

Back then, Gao Jiu was just a small bandit in Taohuashan, and the Fifth Division was beaten to the ground by others, and the entire regiment raised its hands and surrendered.

Today's Gao Jiu's strength is no longer the same as it was back then. Yamashita Fengwen, known as the Malay Tiger, was still beaten to the bum by Gao Jiu.

The Fifth Division simply had no strength to compete with Gao Jiu. Not to mention the powerful coalition forces launching an attack, even the bombers sent by Gao Jiu could blow up the entire division.

Only a fool is willing to fight such a battle with no hope of victory in sight.

The senior generals of the Fifth Division quickly unified their thinking and decided to accept Gao Jiu's conditions.

The head of the fifth division was relieved to see that everyone agreed, and he was even secretly happy in his heart.

This is because, if Yamashita Fengwen died, he would be the commander of the division with the oldest qualifications in the Japanese 25th Army, and he was most likely to succeed Yamashita Fengfumi and be promoted to the commander of the 25th Army.

The head of the division made up his mind, so he asked someone to call the messenger sent by Gao Jiu, and asked him to go back and tell Mr. Gao that the Fifth Division would definitely cooperate with the coalition forces in their operations.

The messenger left the radio contact information for the head of the fifth division, and then went back to report to Gao Jiu.

After completing the work of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, Gao Jiu began to attack the Japanese Army.

The coalition forces opened the way with hundreds of armored vehicles and attacked the positions of the Japanese 18th Division.

Seeing this situation, Yamashita Fengwen hurriedly ordered the Fifth Division to enter the position of the Eighteenth Division and launch a counterattack against the coalition forces.

Unexpectedly, the Fifth Division refused to carry out his order. Instead of going to the 18th Division's position, they retreated directly into Kuala Lumpur.

After entering the city, the Fifth Division directly closed the city gate and set up machine guns on the city wall to prevent the headquarters of Yamashita Fengfumi outside the city and the troops of the 18th Division from entering Kuala Lumpur.

Tens of thousands of coalition troops rushed to the position of the Japanese 18th Division, quickly wiped out the remnants of the enemy, and then surrounded the headquarters of Yamashita Fengfumi.

After an hour of fighting, the Japanese army was completely defeated, and Yamashita Fengwen and the commander of the Japanese 18th Division were captured.

The commander of the [-]th Division took over the command of Yamashita, and he ordered all Japanese troops in Malaysia to gather at the port west of Kuala Lumpur.

Gao Jiu didn't stop them, and let them cross the Denver Strait and enter Singapore.

Yamashita Fengwen admitted that he had failed completely. He proposed to see Gao Jiu, and wanted to see with his own eyes what Gao Jiu who had defeated him looked like.

Gao Jiu was not interested in this, and directly handed him and the Japanese prisoners of war to Sir Smith.

In this way, the coalition forces led by Gao Jiu took over the whole of Malaysia at the cost of more than [-] casualties.

With such a small price, the coalition troops won a big victory and won a lot of real money. All the officers and soldiers were very happy.

The happiest ones are of course the British. They only paid some economic costs to take back the whole of Malaysia, which greatly boosted the morale of the British people to defeat Japan.

The fly in the ointment is that Singapore was not captured this time.

The Bronze Commander of the British Army sent a telegram to Sir Smith, hoping that he would negotiate with Gao Jiu and help the British Army take Singapore.

Without even thinking about it, Gao Jiu directly refused, and led the coalition forces to withdraw from Malaysia.

Wang Zhankui asked with some puzzlement: "Master Jiu, I think Malaysia is a good place, why don't we take it for ourselves? And why do we let the Japanese army stay in Singapore?"

Guo Hengming, Li Chengwu and others also didn't understand why Gao Jiu did this.

Gao Jiu had his own ideas in doing this. First of all, he was not that greedy, as long as he firmly occupied the Golden Triangle, that was enough.

The reason why Malaysia was taken down was handed over to the British army. There is no other way.

He knew the situation after the war. For a long time, Ying and Mi were very powerful. Gao Jiu didn't need to get into trouble. It was better to establish a good relationship with them so as to facilitate business with the Golden Triangle.

The reason why the Japanese army in Singapore was retained was to allow the Japanese army and the British army to continue to contain each other, so as to highlight the status of the Golden Triangle among the British.

The British army needs Gao Jiu, so that they can strive for greater benefits for the Golden Triangle.

Golden Triangle.

After this battle, Gao Jiu felt a little tired.

He wanted to go out to relax, and this time he called Long Guobi to accompany him on a trip.

Long Guobi was very happy, and immediately went to prepare for the trip.Soon after, they came to Kunming.

They first went to meet the Wang and his wife of Yunnan.Hearing that the daughter and uncle are coming back, the whole Dragon House is beaming with joy.
