Age of Rebirth

From [-] to the end of September, during this period, apart from the few bosses in the Independent Division Command, Lieutenant Colonel Bai Luoyu, director of the Intelligence Analysis Center of the Intelligence Department, was the busiest.

This talented student who graduated from the intelligence department of the Military Academy in Berlin, Germany, was so busy that he didn't even have time to fall in love with his fiancé, Major General Battelle, the commander of the Armored Forces of the Independent Division. No, just received a piece of intelligence from the United States. After sorting it out quickly, according to the procedure, only one officer from the intelligence department was needed to send it to the division.

But Bai Luoyu's heart suddenly moved, "I haven't seen Battelle for several months, will he be at the teacher's finger?" So, she decided to send the information to the teacher herself, and she couldn't bear to see him again. That rascal?

Just in his twenties, full of youthful breath, white feather feathers in military uniform, radiant and radiant, wherever he goes, he will attract those young officers, pay attention to them with admiring eyes, and walk on the road to the teacher's guidance, no exception , immediately attracted attention.

However, the young officers of the Independent Division all know that this astonishingly beautiful Lieutenant Colonel Bai Luoyu not only has excellent conditions, but there are only a few top students at the Berlin Military Academy in the entire Independent Division, and he is also famous. Yes, the fiancé is the so-called "Blood Knife!" in the independent division. He is now the famous armored commander Major General Battelle. Same as brother.

Walking in the sunshine of October morning in Yangon, Bai Luoyu felt very comfortable.With a tinge of expectation, he was already used to the attention salutes of many young officers.When she arrived at the door of the teacher's office, she calmed down and raised her hand to knock on the door, "Bang bang bang!"

"Come in!" Chief of Staff Zhao's voice came from inside the room.

Bai Luoyu opened the door and came in. With a quick glance, he saw the division commander, deputy division commander Tang and Chief of Staff Zhao.But she didn't find Battelle, so she felt a little disappointed, but she concealed her emotions very well.Raise your hands in salute, and then report crisply: "Reporting to the commander, Bai Luoyu, the director of the intelligence analysis center of the intelligence department, is here to deliver the information!"

Tang Qiuli saw his brother's fiancée coming.He said gently: "It's Luo Yu. Why, is there no one else in the intelligence department? Do you want to send it yourself?"

Bai Luoyu's face was slightly red. She said that she wanted to meet Battelle, so she had an idea and replied: "Report to the teacher, because this information is very important. Therefore, Director Yu made a temporary decision. I will hand it over to the teacher personally." !"

"Very important information?" Tang Qiuli took the file bag from Bai Luoyu's hand, but did not open it right away, but said, "Recently, your intelligence analysis center has been very busy. I heard from your sister-in-law Mei Ting that, In recent months, you haven't eaten at home, are you so busy?"

"By the way, some time ago, Battelle went to the Hantie Army on Hainan Island, you know?" As he spoke, seeing Bai Luoyu blushing, he shook his head.

He became a little angry, "Why, when he was leaving, he didn't tell you where he was going? This kid is just careless. How can he treat girls like this? Is he still in love? When he comes back, I will Make sure to clean him up! Specially approve him for a few days off, to accompany you!"

Tang Qiuli treated Battelle and Bai Luoyu just like his own brothers and sisters, and didn't think too much about it, so he just said it casually, but Bai Luoyu was so shy that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in. There were not only There is the eldest brother, as well as Deputy Teacher Tang and Chief of Staff Zhao!

Looking at the smiling eyes of Tang Qiusheng and Zhao Yuhe, Bai Luoyu stammered and said in panic, "Master, Master, I'll take my leave first!" After speaking, he turned around and wanted to run.

"Wait a minute!" Before Bai Luoyu could move, he was stopped by the teacher again. Tang Qiuli lowered his head and took out three cans of milk powder in tin cans from the cabinet, and said, "This is a foreign product, good milk powder, look at your face." Something is wrong, I stayed up all night, take it back, and drink it when you are hungry, it is nutritious! If Battelle comes back and sees you like this, don’t blame me, my elder brother, for not taking good care of you!” Then he said Stuffed the powdered milk into Bai Luoyu's arms.

After Bai Luoyu walked away with the milk powder in his arms and his eyes were red, Tang Qiuli picked up the file bag. After opening it and reading it, he couldn't help but frowned. This was about the number of the troops that the US military was moving to the west coast. As well as the information on the organization and weapons and equipment, it is very detailed. Yu Deshui's intelligence department is still very efficient in its work.

Tang Qiuli passed the information to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, and said, "Brother Qiusheng, Yuhe, take a look, what do you think?"

Zhao Yuhe read it carefully first, then handed it to Tang Qiusheng, and then said: "Master, according to the current deployment of the US military and the situation of weapons and equipment, it may be very difficult for the Japanese to land on the west coast of the United States. If they land, they will be counterattacked by the U.S. military!"

Tang Qiuli turned his gaze to Tang Qiusheng and asked, "Brother Qiusheng, what do you think?"

Tang Qiusheng said calmly: "Yuhe's point of view is reasonable. As far as the current equipment of an infantry division of the US army is concerned, it is several times more than that of a first-class division of the Japanese army. During the war, the casualties of the Japanese army will be very heavy, and they will not be able to gain a firm foothold on the landing field at all!"

"Moreover, as far as the current sea transport capabilities of the Japanese army are concerned, it is impossible to transport more than 50 troops at one time, carry out a landing attack, and then suffer heavy casualties. It is not easy to seize the bridgehead. The US military has several areas suitable for landing. There must be solid fortifications built, if the U.S. military continues to carry out high-intensity counterattacks, it is possible to drive the first batch of Japanese landing troops out of the Pacific Ocean before the arrival of the second batch of Japanese landing troops!"

Tang Qiusheng’s words are very objective and practical. In the U.S. Army around [-], the organization and firepower of an army division still had a great advantage compared to a first-class division of the Japanese army. The Japanese army, but with much stronger firepower.

An infantry division of the U.S. Army has between 5000 and 7000 soldiers. Most of the soldiers are equipped with semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns. The artillery of the division is an artillery regiment equipped with 105-caliber howitzers, with a total of 36 artillery pieces. One is equipped with 155-caliber howitzers. The artillery battalion has twelve artillery pieces. These large-caliber artillery can provide front-line troops with powerful fire support in front and in depth.

In addition, it is also equipped with 68 anti-tank guns, 120 mortars, and more than 32 light and heavy machine guns. Each infantry division is also equipped with a tank battalion equipped with [-] heavy main battle tanks, and one equipped with [-] The air defense battalion equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns surpassed the firepower of two or even three first-class divisions of the Japanese army in terms of firepower equipment.

No wonder Tang Qiusheng and Zhao Yuhe were not optimistic about the Japanese landing on the west coast of the United States.

Tang Qiuli shook his head and said, "I don't think so, brother Qiusheng, Yuhe, have you forgotten that Hitler gave free aid to the Japanese, enough to equip ten first-class divisions with the latest German weapons and equipment, In terms of firepower, it surpasses the current US infantry division, and with Yamamoto 56's tactical command ability, he will not fail to use these new equipment on the Japanese troops in the first round of landing assault!"

"Also, one of the biggest shortcomings of the U.S. military now is that the navy has lost the ability to actively attack the Japanese troop transport fleet and escort fleet in the waters off the west coast of the United States. It can only passively wait for the Japanese army to attack, and the defensive force is being mobilized. Among them, the defense system along the west coast has not yet been fully established, you see..."

Then, Tang Qiuli walked to the large map, pointed to the west coast of the United States and said: "The west coast of the United States is long, and there are possible landing sites for the Japanese army everywhere. That Yamamoto 56 will not be so stupid as to put the main direction of attack on Los Angeles, San Francisco and other places heavily defended by the Allied forces, he will definitely choose a breakthrough that is most suitable for landing, nothing more than in Eureka, Portland and Tacoma!"

Tang Qiuli's judgment was accurate. General Yamamoto had indeed chosen Portland as the main direction of his landing and assault. If General Yamamoto knew that Tang Qiuli, the devil of China in the Indochina Peninsula, had already passed away across the vast Pacific Ocean. If you see through his battle plan, will you break out in a cold sweat?

"Teacher, what is another shortcoming of the U.S. military?" Zhao Yuhe asked urgently. In his heart, he was not completely convinced by the teacher's analysis, while Tang Qiusheng was thoughtful.

Tang Qiuli smiled, and continued: "It is the U.S. military's air supremacy, which is gradually being lost!"

"Yamamoto 56 is a tactical genius. He cleverly coordinated the Japanese land-based air force and the naval carrier-based air force, and played a set of beautiful combination punches, plus the latest radar provided by the Germans. Help, the Japanese are even more powerful!"

"Look at Yamamoto's tactic, which is to use uninterrupted large-scale air battles to gradually consume the strength of the US air force and wring out the blood of the Americans. The air battles that took place on the west coast of the United States have been fought for more than three months. The Japanese have basically According to Yu Deshui's intelligence, the U.S. Army Air Corps, which is responsible for the air defense of the west coast, has suffered heavy losses and has reached an unsustainable level!"

"The main division of the Japanese army with German-style equipment, coupled with the mastery of air supremacy, the combined fleet of the Japanese Navy, can also provide powerful fire support from nearby naval guns, and choose a landing site with weak US defense forces. With this combination, the Japanese army will surely land successfully. ! As long as the follow-up troops can keep up, there is absolutely no problem for the Japanese army to control several bridgeheads!"

Tang Qiusheng nodded, obviously fully agreeing with Tang Qiuli's analysis, but Zhao Yuhe still argued: "Master, your analysis is reasonable, but in terms of the current combat effectiveness of the U.S. Army Aviation Corps, it is still quite powerful. Don't forget, the strong industrial strength of the United States is enough to make up for the loss of combat aircraft! I'm still not optimistic about the little devil's landing operation!"
