Age of Rebirth

"What's the matter?" Tang Qiuli couldn't answer his cousin's concern and surprise. He couldn't open his mouth to tell his future generations about the anti-Chinese incident that happened on Indonesian land. Even if he said it, would his cousin believe it?

But this is the pain that Tang Qiuli will never forget. Those indigenous residents of Southeast Asia absorb the nourishment of the mother's milk of the Chinese nation on the one hand, but on the other hand hate and reject China from the bottom of their hearts. It is really a heart-wrenching paradox!

What the hell is the title of "Imperial Association Army" full of traitors, which should have appeared in northern China during the Japanese invasion of China in history, but now it appears in Kalimantan Island inexplicably, thanks to the Japanese thinking of it come out!

It seems that although the direction of history has changed because of his appearance, a certain department still stubbornly follows the old path. However, since Tang Qiuli's murderous intentions, the independent division will inevitably occupy the islands in the Southwest Pacific, This so-called "First Corps of the Indochina Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire" is a very good chicken, the goal of Liwei!

"Brother Qiusheng, it's nothing. I recalled some past events, and I'm a little distracted!" Since he couldn't tell the truth, he buried it in his heart forever. Facing his cousin's concern and inquiries, Tang Qiuli could only say it in a concealed manner.

Tang Qiusheng's eyes flashed, as if he felt that his cousin, what's on his mind, and he was still in pain, with a strong killing intent, was it just because of the little devil's puppet arm?But he was smart enough not to press on.

"Yuhe, call Chutian right away and keep an eye on me. This is the armed forces of the First Corps of the Indochina Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire. Find out all about their situation and how important they are to you. It is the same as the Japanese troops stationed there!" Tang Qiuli solemnly ordered Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe to arrive.

"Isn't it just a local indigenous armed force, the Japanese's minion, worthy of the teacher's attention?" Zhao Yuhe was full of doubts, but seeing the teacher's face, he replied concisely: "Yes! Teacher, I will immediately Send a telegram to Captain Chutian!"

General Yamamoto, commander of Japan's North American Operations Command, and General Minano Osuyama, chief of staff.Bring the "Hurricane Landing Operation Plan" that has been painstakingly formulated and rush back to Tokyo to report.

The two partners stayed in Tokyo for more than a week. During this time, the two had their only mission.Just in accordance with the orders of Emperor Hirohito, humbly listening to the opinions of all parties, the "Hurricane Landing Operation Plan" has undergone the most stringent nitpicking.

Those who are qualified and important enough to participate are all important figures in the Japanese military circle.for example.Minister of the Army and Chief of the General Staff of the Base Camp, General Mitsuichi Yonei, Minister of the Navy, Admiral Nagano Shuyama, Deputy Commander of the Imperial Homeland Defense Command, Prince Zain, Chief of the Operations Department of the General Staff, Lieutenant General Yonekura, Chief of the Navy, Nakazu Suzuki will wait.

There is another person, Yamamoto and Nanye, who never thought of it, is the former deputy commander of the North American Combat Command who was called back to China.General Gensaburo Ito, the current Vice Minister of Military Affairs of the base camp.

After Admiral Ito returned home in an extremely bad mood, Emperor Hirohito had no idea how to arrange his duties.It's also a headache. It's too high. Several bigwigs in the imperial world firmly occupy important positions, and they are deeply intertwined. They can't be afraid of that. When the empire is about to launch a full-scale attack on the United States, even if you are the emperor , he did not want to cause turmoil in the military circles.

The assigned position is low. I'm sorry for the military exploits made by General Ito. Besides, it will also make him feel resentful. Emperor Hirohito misses the general who brought Australia to the empire very much. He temporarily let Ito rest for a while, but he feels that such a It is a loss to the empire for a commander with great military exploits and considerable talent to be left idle.

After weighing it carefully, Emperor Hirohito felt that there was no famous general in the southwestern Pacific occupied area of ​​the empire, and he always had no idea, so he called General Ito into the palace, intending to let him serve as the commander of the imperial southwestern Pacific. The post of the commander of the Defense Command, unified command of the troops in various places, is also a good job!

However, General Ito rejected His Majesty's kindness in a tactful but firm manner. In his own words, "I have been fighting abroad for many years, from mainland China to Australia. After decades of military career, I am quite tired of the battlefield. At present, I just want to stay in Tokyo, do what I can, and sort out my gains and losses over the years, but I can only disappoint His Majesty!"

Emperor Hirohito did not feel any displeasure because of General Ito's refusal. He also knew that Ito would inevitably have some resentment in his heart when Ito was called back from Hawaii. , he appointed General Ito as the Deputy Military Affairs Officer of the headquarters to assist the Chief of General Staff Mitsuko Miuchi in his work. This position is also quite important and has a great say!

But no one will know that the root cause of Ito Yanzaburo's refusal to serve as the commander of the Southwest Pacific Defense is not what he said, but just an excuse. Who is the opponent of the Imperial Southwest Pacific Defense Command——Chen Bing Tang Qiuli, the devil of China in the Indochina Peninsula, and his more than two million elite soldiers and generals, where is the goal, the empire's southwest Pacific occupied area!

General Ito is absolutely unwilling to face this daunting opponent again. In other words, he has already developed an instinctive fear of Tang Qiuli, the devil of China. When he thinks of fighting against this person, he feels a deep feeling in his heart. , There was a strong sense of powerlessness, and the fiasco in the south of the China mainland had become a lingering nightmare for him.

Unable to fight the enemy, he had no choice but to evade. Although the position of Vice-Minister of Military Affairs of the base camp was not his favorite position, he also talked about it for comfort. General Ito put away his ambition to fight for His Majesty the Emperor and the Japanese Empire, and devoted himself to his new position. superior.

Because of the addition of General Ito, who is proficient in infantry command operations and tactics, the review of the "Hurricane Landing Operation Plan" has become more rigorous. However, General Ito is not picky, deliberately making things difficult for General Yamamoto. With a heart for the sake of the empire, he put forward many insightful revisions on the issue of the army's future deep combat in the United States!

General Ito's sincere attitude is by no means a dismantling speech, but it surprised General Yamamoto and General Minano. At the same time, he also changed his bad impression in his heart, but it is far from repairing the deep cracks. not enough.

After being honed by so many masters in the base camp, the "Hurricane Landing Operation Plan" was more perfect and impeccable. A week later, with a small number of revisions to the operation plan, at the end of September, General Yamamoto and General Nanye returned to Pearl Harbor by special plane excitedly. From then on, the countdown to combat operations against the United States began!

From the beginning of October, with a large number of German-style preparations in place one after another, General Yamamoto and General Minano completely built the first batch of nine first-class army divisions that landed into the first batch of heavy armored assault divisions of the Japanese Army. General Yamamoto is more and more confident that he can successfully land on the west coast of the United States and obtain a bridgehead.

The Japanese are in the Eastern Pacific, dispatching troops and generals, sharpening their knives, staring at the west coast of the United States with blood-red eyes, that murderous look, floating across the vast waters of the Eastern Pacific, even the most dull Americans can feel it. It turned out that Roosevelt, who was far away in Washington on the east coast, naturally felt the imminent crisis. He ordered the Joint Chiefs of Staff to speed up the deployment of the army to the west coast.

According to Roosevelt's request, before the end of October, the U.S. Army's defensive strength on the west coast should reach 30 infantry divisions, with a scale of more than 65 people. It will reach more than [-] people.

And the original West Coast Defense Command was upgraded to the General Command. The commander-in-chief was Lieutenant General Penrak, commander of the US Army No.15 Army, and the deputy commander was Lieutenant General Brennan, commander of the Army Air Corps. Rear Admiral Woolsey, commander of the Defense Command, was transferred to the post of chief of staff of the West Coast Defense Command to facilitate the coordination and command of the Marine Corps forces.

At the same time, Roosevelt felt that the Army Air Corps was at a disadvantage and suffered heavy losses when they fought against the Japanese Army and Navy Air Corps. Although he was not a professional soldier, he also knew what it meant to lose air supremacy when fighting at home.

Roosevelt tried his best to meet the requirements of Lieutenant General Brennan, the commander of the Army Aviation, gritted his teeth, and desperately gave blood transfusions to the Army Aviation who had lost too much blood, and ordered the wartime logistics department to rush to produce combat aircraft day and night to meet the requirements of the Army Aviation Force. He is distressed about consumption, but the growing shortage of pilots cannot be solved by industrial production.

This is already the most luxurious defensive lineup that President Roosevelt, who is the supreme commander of the United States during the war, has almost drained more than three-fifths of the U.S. Army’s assets, and the remaining less than two-fifths. The army troops are all deployed on the US-Mexico border to guard against the bigger and more ferocious tiger——Chen Bing's more than 100 million murderous German army on the southern border of Mexico!

Tang Qiuli in Yangon is not only focused on the Japanese-occupied islands in the Southwest Pacific, the Japanese army in the East Pacific is sharpening their knives, and the U.S. military is busy mobilizing troops to establish a defense line on the west coast. The Mexican border area is constantly moving, and it is increasingly putting enormous pressure on the United States, which is also the focus of his attention.

Yu Deshui, the director of the intelligence department, spent years of painstaking efforts and a huge amount of money to build a huge intelligence network, like a tightly woven and wide-ranging spider web, collecting all the information about Japan, the United States and Germany.

Then, a large amount of information was sent to Tang Qiuli's desk through the collection and analysis of the intelligence analysis center of the intelligence department, so that he knew everything that happened in the Eastern Pacific and the North American continent in detail!
