Age of Rebirth

General Ito Yansaburo, from this information, can see the following facts. Tang Qiuli and the British continued to fight against each other. The battle in northern Burma was protracted. , has become a new battlefield, and the battlefield is gradually shifting to East India, what does this mean?

It is absolutely beneficial to the Great Japanese Empire, great good news, Tang Qiuli put all his attention and energy on the British, on the Malay Peninsula, especially on the imperial troops dispatched in Southeast Asia in Singapore , it will be reduced to the lowest level, a person's energy is always limited, Tang Qiuli will never make the low-level mistake of fighting on two fronts.

The farther away the main combat corps of the independent division is from the Malay Peninsula, the more favorable it will be for the implementation of the empire's next plan. At that time, even if the Americans ask Tang Qiuli for help, his troops will drive from the remote border of India and Burma in northern Myanmar. Coming back, the war in the South Pacific Islands may be the final situation. Moreover, judging from Tang Qiuli's relationship with the Americans, he may not lend a helping hand.

That MacArthur, I hate it so much, Ito Yanzaburo must thank the British, without them instigating the war in northern Myanmar, there would be no great opportunity for the Japanese Empire to attack the Americans without worrying about the future.

At the same time, Yanzaburo Ito also shook his head secretly at the actions of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. In his opinion, this was the most stupid and overreaching decision made by the British, recklessly provoking Don Qiuli's psychological bottom line, however, has helped the Great Japanese Empire a lot. This stupid mistake of the British will change the pattern of Southeast Asia. [

In Ito's eyes, Tang Qiuli, who is known as the devil of China, even the most brave and combative Imperial Army troops of the Imperial Japanese Army shunned. Many famous imperial generals were lost in his hands, and he was the luckiest .Keeping the blood of the Southeast Asian dispatched army, as for the defeated British, it is not enough to look at.

Ito said to Major General Kawashima, the chief of staff who came to send the information: "Kawashima-kun, immediately send this information. In the form of top secret, the photographer sent it back to the mainland, and presented it to His Majesty the Emperor and the base camp, and behind the information, Adding the opinion of our dispatched army headquarters, this is a golden opportunity, taking advantage of Tang Qiuli's favorable situation in fighting the British. The empire should immediately start implementing the battle plan against the Americans."

Major General Kawashima picked up the information carefully, as if he was holding a rare treasure, and Ito suddenly said with emotion and a little sadness: "If this battle against the Americans achieves the expected results, the sun flag of the Empire of Japan, it will be planted On the land of the islands in the South Pacific, the intelligence and technical departments of our dispatched forces are the first to contribute. Without their sacrifice and wisdom, there would be no such intelligence."

Kawashima nodded sympathetically, what Ito said was the truth.The counterintelligence department of the Independent Division wiped out Japan's intelligence network in the Indochina Peninsula. In order to obtain intelligence, the Japanese had to make plans on the American territory and decipher the American code. The intelligence department of the Southeast Asian dispatch army, Lost several good agents.

However, the price paid was very worthwhile. Kawashima replied: "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief. Their sacrifices are for the great cause of the Great Japanese Empire. The Empire will not forget their achievements. This is the honor of every warrior of His Majesty the Emperor Your glory, you better not be too sad!"

Ito smiled and looked at his chief of staff.Said: "Mr. Kawashima, let's do it. We finally have something to make His Majesty the Emperor happy. The great cause of the Japanese Empire to conquer the South Pacific may have begun from this. I am very eager to take on this honor. It’s just that I don’t know what will happen to His Majesty the Emperor and the headquarters.”

The flattery of Ito Gensaburo was very hot. In Tokyo, Japan, Emperor Hirohito received the information sent back by a special person from Southeast Asia. People are preparing for war, especially the navy. Its main fleets are all ready to go to the intended attack target area.

In terms of the army, the newly formed elite divisions are all in a state of ready to go. The six first-class divisions, three tank brigades, and two heavy artillery brigades that were supplemented to the Southeast Asian Expeditionary Army have been turned into some time ago. They were broken into pieces and entered Singapore in batches, which did not alarm the Americans.

Everything is ready, what is owed is not the time and determination to attack the Americans. Ito's information came at the right time, and Emperor Hirohito's last hesitation was wiped away by this information. Kong, this is a gift from God Amaterasu to the Great Japanese Empire!

Hirohito said to the chief of staff of the base camp, Prince Ren: "The time has come, order all the imperial troops to launch a full-line attack on the Americans on the 31st of this month. The South Pacific dispatched army is ready, as for the commander, my decision is that Ito Yanzaburo, the current commander-in-chief of the Southeast Asian dispatched army, will be in charge. At the same time, the designation of the Southeast Asian dispatched army will be revoked, what do you think?"

When Emperor Hirohito said these words, his expression seemed to be a little melancholy and lost. As the chief of the general staff, Prince Hiroshi naturally knew, what was the melancholy and lost in his brother, the emperor's heart?

The Empire of Japan’s Southeast Asian Dispatched Army, as the name suggests, was formed to occupy Southeast Asia. Now, the designation has to be revoked. That is to say, the attempt to occupy Southeast Asia is far away, Prince Ren, is the participation and formulation of all combat plans Or, revoked the designation of the Southeast Asian dispatched army, and he felt uncomfortable.

From another point of view, it is also the failure of his benevolence. In Southeast Asia, there is a figure that all the generals of the Great Japanese Empire regard as a nightmare. The Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, as long as he occupies the Indochina Peninsula, Southeast Asia will be forever It will not become the land of the Great Japanese Empire. From a certain point of view, turning to attack the Americans is a choice that has to be made after the failure of this plan.

In other words, it is a major adjustment of the strategic direction of the empire, and all of this is due to the existence of the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli. Lost, the wise Prince Ren will naturally not bring up this matter, so as not to magnify the sadness of His Majesty the Emperor.

However, for the Great Japanese Empire, apart from the Kwantung Army, the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the largest overseas combat group, Prince Ren, is not willing to fall into the hands of Ito Yansaburo. The reason is very simple. An important figure in the Yiyi line, and Koichi Minai is the arch-rival of His Highness the Prince. The discord between the two is well known in the Japanese government and the public.

The huge army is divided into two camps, each of which recruits many front-line generals in charge of military power. Because of this, the army, which could have been dominated by one family, has never been able to gain the upper hand in the wrestling with the navy. Prince Ren , wanted to snatch the title of commander-in-chief in the hands of his own people, but in a hurry, there was no suitable candidate, so he had to give up.

After Emperor Hirohito's order was issued, the entire country of Japan began to act vigorously, and the army and navy troops tasked with attacking the Americans went to the target theater in an extremely concealed manner.

Tang Qiuli commanded two main field corps and encircled Alexander's tens of thousands of troops in the Sido area on the Indian-Myanmar border, causing a chain reaction. The British were furious. Prime Minister Churchill decided to use all the remaining troops in the Indian army On the one hand, it will rescue the besieged Alexander's troops. On the other hand, it will keep the independent division troops that invaded East India and Dongba from the South Asian subcontinent.

General MacArthur, commander of the US Southeast Asia and South Pacific Regional Headquarters, and General Stilwell, chief of staff, are worried. In the long run, Tang Qiuli will become an unstoppable strong presence, which will threaten the interests of the Americans in Southeast Asia. The worry was that Tang Qiuli and the British vowed not to give up. In a short period of time, France promised to launch a fatal blow to the Japanese army under Ito's troops in Singapore on time before the end of May. [

But both MacArthur and Stilwell had to admit that they could not understand the steps and actions of the Chinese Tang Qiuli more and more, and they couldn't keep up. Take the case of Xiduo's encirclement of Alexander's troops as an example. It was completely beyond their expectations. As for the reaction of US President Franklin Roosevelt and the US Congress, it is still unknown.

After the situation was reported to China, MacArthur and Stilwell waited hard for an answer, but there was no movement, and the happiest ones were the Japanese. Tang Qiuli and the British never stopped, which directly gave birth to the Japanese Emperor Hirohito. The decision is to take action against the Americans before the end of May.

All parties are turbulent and have their own plans, but none of them is sure what Tang Qiuli will do next. The actions of the British are not to prevent problems before they happen. The worries of the Americans are due to their habitual thinking Considering that, the Japanese hoped that Tang Qiuli would fight with the British for as long and intensely as possible, but Emperor Hirohito did not think that Tang Qiuli would attack India.

There is only one reason. His Majesty the Emperor himself, who controls a country with rapid development, all people are soldiers, full of aggression and conquest ambitions, has never thought of doing this. No matter how big it is, it is impossible to swallow Southeast Asia and the South Asian subcontinent in one gulp.

On the evening of May [-]th, facing the brilliant sunset glow and the warm westerly wind, Tang Qiuli led the division command staff and formed a capable command team to leave the western foot of the Hukang River Valley and enter the East India region. From this point of view , Tang Qiuli is now on the territory of the British.
