Age of Rebirth

It’s all about this, even a person with a head full of dung knows what it means. It stands to reason that with a high-sounding excuse and the words of the two commanders of the Australian Allied Forces, even if MacArthur leaves now, he will No one dared to stop him, but he didn't leave immediately.

Lieutenant General MacArthur's heart and tolerance are obviously beyond the reach of ordinary people. General Fernandez's hostility and ridicule, and Lieutenant General Bachlisman's indifference and disapproval, he did not take it to heart at all. He thought it was a very decent smile, and said: "Two commanders, I am going to the West Indies in advance, which belongs to official business. I also ask the two commanders to order the air force to dispatch two transport planes for my use!"

"You also know that the military observation team of the Allied Forces in the Australian battlefield has a lot of personnel and confidential files, which are of great importance and cannot fall into the hands of the Japanese. In addition, you must also Order the Air Force to let it go!"

The faces of Lieutenant General Bachlisman and General Fernandez turned livid, their noses looked like boilers, and they were gasping for breath, almost exploding. There were cold lights in their eyes. The two looked at each other, and then looked at the calm and breezy Lieutenant General MacArthur, who didn't pay attention to the anger of the two, resisted the urge to swear, and cursed inwardly, "You're so fucking despicable and shameless!" , shameless to the highest level!"

Lieutenant General Bachlisman squeezed out a few words coldly, "Okay, I've fulfilled your request, please leave immediately!" He must immediately dismiss this beauty. Two clean bastards.Immediately disappear in front of my eyes, otherwise, I will definitely have the urge to draw the gun and blow the bastard's head.

The request is fulfilled.With another high-sounding reason to leave Australia, which is about to fall, Lieutenant General MacArthur walked away proudly, with a victor's smile on his lips.

Three planes took off from the Melbourne Field Airport, leaving the flames of war, more than 20 Allied soldiers, still struggling desperately.But Australia, which is doomed to fall, is on the plane, except for one inside.In addition to the members of the Allied Headquarters' battlefield observation team in Australia, the other two were filled with Lieutenant General MacArthur, who had been in Australia and the Philippines in recent years.Robbery of personal property.Finally, he thought of some incense and did not leave his colleagues behind.

Under the wing, the blue water of the Indian Ocean was undulating. Lieutenant General MacArthur leaned against the porthole and heaved a sigh of relief. He finally left this damned place and got rid of the shadow of death once again.He was secretly proud of his wit and luck.

Think of the faces of Bachlisman and Fernandez.Lieutenant General MacArthur couldn't help but sneered, "If it wasn't for the death order of the Australian Allied Forces Command, all aircraft would not be allowed to leave Australia without the approval of the two commanders. Would I be able to ask them? Look at the faces of the two dead people. , If you want to leave, they have no right to stop you!"

"Two self-righteous but ignorant fellows, let's live and die with Australia! I, MacArthur, have no responsibility to accompany you to meet God!" To be honest, he despised Lieutenant General Bachlisman and General Fernandez from the bottom of his heart. , knowing that the Australian war has no chance of winning, but insists on not withdrawing, looking for death can not blame others, ignorant of current affairs!

"Consultant!" Lieutenant General MacArthur, who escaped from the crisis-ridden Australian battlefield with a little trick and took away his personal property, was in a good mood. Calculated, he was probably the biggest winner, unscathed!

He called a staff officer of the observation team and solemnly ordered: "Send a telegram to Washington immediately, saying that Lieutenant General MacArthur, the leader of the Allied Headquarters' battlefield observation team in Australia, led the investigation after communicating with the Australian Allied Command. All members of the group have already flown to the West Indies to arrange military affairs in advance for the Allied forces that are about to retreat!"

Pre-emptive strikes, even if Bachlisman was lucky enough to save his life from the Australian battlefield, and later complained to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, his own actions are also preconceived. As for the extremely annoying British, whose mind is still full of the former glory of the British Empire, he has no idea at all. Take it to heart, the entire British Empire no longer exists, what punishment will the Joint Chiefs of Staff impose on itself because of an Englishman?

MacArthur's escape from the Australian battlefield was nothing more than an insignificant incident that happened on the Australian battlefield full of wars. The Allied soldiers who were still fighting the Japanese army did not know at all that an American lieutenant general, at the most critical time, , oiled the soles of his feet again, and slipped away disgracefully!

In early May, the situation on the battlefield in southeastern Australia became more and more serious. The defenders of the Australian Allied Forces Headquarters in various cities were already short of troops and lacked the necessary heavy equipment. The most terrible thing was that they were all The defeated soldiers withdrew all the way from the second line of defense in the northeast, and were beaten dizzy by Japanese combat aircraft and rapid ground troops, causing heavy casualties.

After entering the city to set up defenses, the shock was still undecided, and the breath was breathed out evenly. The more than one million Japanese troops chasing after them surrounded more than a dozen cities from all directions, so that not even a fly could fly out.

The city is the best battlefield for street fighting, but there are insufficient troops, lack of heavy equipment, and it is a defeated army with low morale and low fighting spirit. In addition, the Japanese army is heavily surrounded and cut off all ties with the outside world. It is an isolated army, an isolated city, an allied army The soldiers are panicking. Does such an army still have combat effectiveness?

General Jeffrey, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, overestimated the current combat effectiveness of the Australian Allied soldiers. Tang Qiuli also overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Allied soldiers. He originally wanted to rely on the city to fight street battles with the Japanese army. They fought against the fast-advancing Japanese troops to buy some time for the naval fleet to reach Australia, but things went against expectations, and the city street fighting that had been placed on high hopes never happened.

On May 95, the [-]th Division of the Ninth Army of the Japanese Southwest Pacific Expedition Army and the Shimamoto Brigade with more than [-] people, under the cover of firepower from a mixed Japanese bomber and fighter fleet, after five hours, it was not a fierce battle at all. In the battle, Orange was captured. There were more than [-] Allied defenders. Except for more than [-] people who died in the battle, the rest surrendered to the Japanese army, and Orange fell.

On the same day, the 47th and 49th Divisions of the Japanese Fifth Army that attacked Ararat entered the city from the north and west. The barricades built between the fortifications, under the rumbling artillery fire, the houses in the urban area collapsed, and the blood and flesh flew everywhere. There were more than [-] Allied defenders, and more than [-] people died in battle. The rest surrendered to the Japanese army. fall!

On May 110th, the 110th Division and the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army, under the cover of more than [-] tanks, broke into the urban area of ​​Benyugo head-on. Sadly, the one after another in Ararat and Orange The fall frightened the Allied defenders in the city. When the Japanese attacked, there were more than [-] Allied defenders in the city without any resistance. Next, surrender to the Japanese army, and Benyugo immediately declares the fall!

In the expected urban street fighting, Japan's Southwest Pacific dispatched troops did not suffer much loss, and swept across cities in southeastern Australia like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, setting a record of several cities in one day.

The overwhelming victory has further increased the confidence of General Ito Yanzaburo. He issued an order to boost the morale of all troops, "The first brigade or division to capture several port cities in the southeastern coast of Australia, the general headquarters will Please submit to His Majesty the Emperor, and ask His Majesty the Emperor to grant him the title of 'Guardian Brigade or Guard Division'!"

As soon as this order came out, the various units of the Japanese army, which had been fighting like a rainbow and fought extremely smoothly, pounced forward with red eyes and heads held high, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Most of the cities in the southeast were captured by the Japanese army, and encountered little resistance.The situation of the Australian Allied Forces was gone, and they sent 10,000+ prisoners of war to the Japanese.

A few days later, the forward troops of the Japanese army, which were riding in vehicles, had approached the periphery of Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and other places respectively. The assembly point, among them, the nearest Japanese army, a rapid detachment of more than [-] people, approached the Albury area less than [-] kilometers north of Melbourne.

At this time, the Australian Allied Forces, plus the civilians who were urgently mobilized into the army, were only more than [-] people, and they had to guard several port cities. The commander, Lieutenant General Bachlisman, and the deputy commander, General Fernandez, Desperate, they have already prepared for the worst, if the Chinese troop transport fleet has not arrived in Australia within five days, then the only way to go is a deadly battle!

Surrender is impossible. Like that bastard MacArthur, abandoning soldiers who are still fighting is also an approach that two people despise. Lieutenant General Bachlisman and General Fernandez, who have reported their will to die, jointly signed the Australian The current situation on the battlefield was truthfully reported to the Allied Army Headquarters.

The content of the telegram was tragic and painful, but the two were obviously gentlemen, and they did not report that MacArthur had run away again. At the same time, they reported that after learning of the news, Roosevelt and Churchill expressed doubts about whether the Australian Allies could persist until the Chinese The fleet arrived without any hope.

At this time, Lieutenant General Tang Qiuquan, the commander of the Navy Fleet of the Independent Division, commanded the escort fleet and troop carrier formation, which were still sailing rapidly in the Indian Ocean. There were still more than three days away from Australia. Whether the remaining Allied troops can last for more than three days, but judging from the actual situation in the Australian battlefield, it may be very difficult

At the same time, General Ito also sent a short telegram to Emperor Hirohito and the base camp, "The command of the minister will definitely end the war in Australia before the end of this month!"
