Invincible from the sword

Chapter 458 Are You Serious?
It is very clear in the telegram of Shouichi in the temple.

Anan's only No.15 Army was annihilated by the opponent in Winton. Two divisions.

In addition to the No.30 Third Division of the Japanese Army that was wiped out in Birdsville, the current No.15 Japanese Army has only one division, the Third Division.

Such a force, no matter how powerful it is, cannot defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Lighthouse Kingdom.

So now Anan Weiji's No.15 Army has fully shrunk its troops.

All troops retreated to Darwin Port.

And set up three lines of defense there.

This is the very right thing to do.

To advance can be attacked, and retreat can be defended.

As long as Darwin Port is still in the hands of their island country, their troops can land calmly.

When the time comes to defeat the lighthouse country's troops, there is still hope.

Moreover, Shouichi Terauchi had already dispatched the Second Division and the Fourth Division.

Judging from the time, it will take another five or six days at most for these two divisions to reach Darwin Port.

In this way, the No.15 Army can regain its combat effectiveness.

However, facing the troops of the Lighthouse Country, the strength of the troops is still a bit stretched.

In Tojo's view, if he wants to completely occupy the Kangaroo Country and kill the troops of the Lighthouse Country, he must use Thunder Strike.

Use the absolute superiority of the troops to overwhelm the troops of the Lighthouse Kingdom.

The original No.15 Army had only four divisions, and such a force was too small.

If five or six divisions can be sent in the past, then the occupation of the Kangaroo Country will be a certainty.

"Send another five to six divisions!?"

Hata Shunroku looked at Tojo in shock.

The boss with staring eyes.

As soon as Tojo's thought came out, Hata Shunroku was startled.

What the hell!

Old Dong!

Are you serious?

Now on the mainland of our island country, there is no way to form a new division.

In the mainland of the island country, as long as they can hold a gun, they are frankly incorporated into the army.

Even those devils who had been discharged from the army were added to the division again.

The entire island country now has no soldiers to use except for a few home defense divisions.

You can't include the girls from the island country into the division, right?
"I object! Tojo-kun, in our island country, we have almost run out of men.

It is simply not realistic to form another five to six divisions. "

Naotomi Hattori also nodded.

"Lao Hata is right, Tojo-kun, the situation in our island country is not optimistic.

There are not many troops available.

Your idea is difficult to realize. "

Tojo shook his head.

It is impossible to reorganize the division.

Even if there are really enough troops, the time is too late.

Tojo frowned and said, "Everyone, of course it's not about reorganizing the division.

It's not necessary either.

Some time ago, we formed [-] divisions again.

Enough for us to use.

Most of these eighty divisions were added to the Kwantung Army, the North China Dispatch Army and the Central China Dispatch Army, except for a part of the No.15 Army.

Now, it is time to transfer some divisions from these places into the Pacific battlefield.

The situation in the Eastern battlefield is currently stabilizing.

The army of the old man in Shancheng has formed a stalemate with the army of our island country.

Although the troops of the Eighth Route Army pose a great threat to us, they have not yet posed a sufficient threat to us due to insufficient troops.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I don't think it's a big problem to transfer troops from the Eastern battlefield to the Pacific Ocean.

Although Shouichi's Southern Dispatch Army has a lot of troops, the area he needs to defend is too large.

Serious shortage of troops.

Now the No.15 Army has wiped out three divisions.

If this continues, our advantage in the Pacific battlefield will slowly disappear.

Such a result is absolutely not allowed.

If our island nation switches to defense on the Pacific battlefield, it will be a devastating blow to us.

We have invested nearly 200 million troops on the eastern battlefield for several years.

The entire island country will be wiped out.

The current island country can no longer stand a protracted war.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have fallen into a huge crisis in the eastern battlefield.

If we lose the initiative in the Pacific battlefield, it will be basically impossible for our island countries to win this war. "

Tojo spoke seriously.

The entire island cabinet is not very good-looking.

Because what Tojo said was not wrong.

At first they thought that three months would be enough to occupy the entire East.

For them, if they want to win the war, they must make a quick decision.

Otherwise, with the national strength of their island country, they would not be able to maintain it at all.

The island nation is too poor.

Resources are also extremely scarce.

But now that the war has been fought for several years, Tojo and a group of people in the island country were shocked to find that, not to mention taking advantage of it, they were getting poorer and poorer as they fought.

In the past, I could go to Maicho Street every now and then.

Now I can only play masturbation at home.

The war resources prepared by their island country for more than ten years have been exhausted.

The most elite troops have also been consumed in the east.

Although the current island country still looks powerful on the outside, as the leader of the island country, Tojo knows it very well.

This is all an illusion.

Their island country is now at the end of its strength.

Because resources can't keep up, there are huge problems in the island country's weapons production.

Tank production has essentially stopped.

The quality of the manufactured aircraft has also declined greatly.

Basically the same as a piece of paper.

The combined fleet of the island nation also suffered heavy losses.

Now the shipyards of the island country do not have enough steel and funds to build new warships.

The battleship Yamato is the last new battleship of their island country.

The following battleships were all refitted from cargo ships and cruise ships.

no way.

It's really not going to work.

What worries Tojo the most is that almost all the young and middle-aged people in their island country have been pulled out.

To form a new division, it is really like Hata Shunroku said, let the girls from the island country go.

Tojo was a little confused.

This is completely different from what he expected.

The most important thing right now is to continue to maintain their island nation's strategic offensive advantage in the South Pacific.

Only in this way can there be any hope of victory.

Therefore, it is necessary to draw troops from the eastern battlefield.

When he heard that he was going to draw troops from the Eastern battlefield again, the six bosses, Jun Jun Hata, were not happy.

He refused directly.

"Tojo-kun, if you do this, we will lose nothing in the end.

Shouyi in the temple sent troops to the south, and there were not many troops.

When it was formed, it had 40 troops!

Now the No.15 Army has only lost three divisions.

Don't be so nervous.

Isn't there still No.14 Army, No.16 Army and No.20 Fifth Army in the hands of Terauchi Shouichi?

It is enough to draw troops directly from these three armies.

I suggest that the No.20 Fifth Army be sent there directly.

The No.20 Fifth Army is the elite force of our island country.

The main force is all drawn from the Kwantung Army of our island country.

That fighting power, I know too well.

It can be said that it represents the highest level of our island nation's troops.

No.20 The Fifth Army is in Malaya, so there is nothing wrong with it.

Putting four divisions there is too wasteful.

In my opinion, it is enough to put a division in Malaya.

The other three divisions can be reinforced to Kangaroo Country. "

Hata Junroku was really scared by Tojo.

As long as it comes to mobilizing troops, Tojo can think about his Kwantung Army of Shunroku Hata.

Let Hata Junliu very helpless.

It doesn't matter to him to transfer other troops.

This Kwantung Army is the biggest capital for Junro Hata to gain a foothold in the island country.

If the combat effectiveness of the Kwantung Army declines, then his position in the island country will not be secure.

From Tojo's first transfer of the Kwantung Army to the present, almost half of the Kwantung Army's elite troops have been transferred to other places by Tojo.

And these troops have basically become cannon fodder.

Although the current Kwantung Army has maintained its strength at around 70, its combat effectiveness has dropped by half.

Half of the troops were either recruits with no combat experience.

Or the retired old devil was recalled again.

Don't think that the old devil's fighting power is very strong.

That's not the case at all.

Most of those retired old devils are almost 50 years old

Barely being a cannon fodder is okay.

If it is really a large-scale battle, these troops will not work at all.

Now Tojo is going to mobilize his troops again, which makes Hata Shunroku's heart aroused all of a sudden.

When Hata Shunroku said this, Naotomi Hattori immediately expressed his opposition.

Naotomi Hattori: "Old Hata, you are wrong to say that.

As far as I know, the No.20 Fifth Army is under great pressure in Malaya.

They not only undertake defensive tasks, but also provide our island country with a large amount of strategic materials such as rubber and iron ore.

If the main force of the No.20 Fifth Army is taken away from Malaya hastily, the strategic resources of our island nation will be even scarcer.

I think it is more appropriate to draw troops from the Eastern battlefield. "

hiss! !

Naotomi Hattori said so suddenly, which surprised Shunroku Hata.

Confused.

Hata Shunroku scolded Naotomi Hattori in his heart.

I am Nima.

This is a matter of our island country army, you Naomi Hattori are so stupid!
This is a taboo for the island cabinet!

I, Hata Toshiroku, have never made irresponsible remarks about the combined fleet of Naoomi Hattori, have I?
If Naomi Hattori is doing this, how can I be the boss in the future?

Hata Shunroku is not just for nothing, he said disdainfully to Hattori Naotomi: "Old Fu, I didn't blame you.

Now is the time, stop staring at me with your chrysanthemum eyes.

Your United Fleet has not moved at all until now.

Was it fooled by Nimitz's Pacific Fleet?

That fellow Yamamoto vowed to destroy Nimitz's Pacific Fleet in the Guadalcanal area.

Why is there no fart now?
The last battle of Midway Island completely lost the face of our island nation. "
