What made Emperor Hirohito feel a little better was that the Imperial Army troops on the North American battlefield could finally be transferred to the Australian battlefield to counterattack the fierce offensive of the Chinese Independent Division troops. It was by no means because of the selfless help of the Germans now.

Compared with the benefits that Japan gave up in North America, the transportation assistance provided by the Germans is simply insignificant, and it is what the Germans should do. Hirohito does not appreciate it at all, let alone be grateful. He hates that little boy now. Hitler with a beard, this German guy who is about the same size as himself, is a typical villain who takes advantage of others when he is in trouble.

Hirohito, who is also a villain, hated Hitler very much. It can be seen that the Germans hurt Japan this time, but it was nothing more than hatred. Thanks to my close buddy, the German, for his help. This is also what makes Hirohito very depressed.

What made Hirohito gnash his teeth even more was that he received a secret message from Gensaburo Ito, the commander of the North American Combat Command, saying that the Germans had previously aided in attacking the United States with the high-tech equipment and troops using the equipment. The establishment was withdrawn, and it was not used by the Imperial Army at all. Among them, there was a high-performance military radar that made the Japanese Navy salivate.

In this regard, Hirohito could only express his speechlessness. Hitler made it clear that he had parted ways with the Great Japanese Empire. Now, Hirohito hated him to death.In addition to the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, Hitler, the head of state of Germany, was added.

If it is possible.Hirohito even agreed with the United States to settle their suspicions, shake hands and make peace, and jointly deal with the Germans.But it's just thinking about it. There is no possibility of reconciliation between Japan and the United States now. The two sides are enemies who fight to the death.

The Japanese, who were so aggrieved that they vomited blood, were forced to spit out the North American interests they had obtained, and joined hands with the Germans to beat the fat and strong behemoth of the United States to only half a tube of blood, the price the Japanese paid.Definitely bigger than the Germans, but in the end, they are about to enjoy the feast of the fruits of victory. There is nothing wrong with the Great Japanese Empire, and they are out early. This summer is a very painful and lost season for Emperor Hirohito and all Japanese.

Similarly, General Yamamoto, the commander of the Japanese Navy Combined Fleet who was resting in northern Australia.The mood is also quite unhappy. After the first air battle in central Australia, the opponent was still the land-based aviation unit that was happy, and it turned out to be the carrier-based aircraft group of the United Fleet.Hang up the free card and never show up again.

Hence, the prestige of the United Fleet.Among the Imperial Army troops, it plummeted.Especially Lieutenant General Morishita, the commander of the Imperial Army in Australia, was dissatisfied and contemptuous.Show it.

However, Admiral Yamamoto is in vain. After the three-day air battle in the Southwest Pacific battlefield, the battle damage of the United Fleet has not been replenished. The carrier-based aircraft and carrier-based aircraft pilots promised by the Ministry of the Navy have not been in place for a long time. So much so that it affected General Yamamoto's plan to go west to the East Indian Ocean and cut off the maritime supply line of the Australian Independent Division.

Admiral Yamamoto has also considered using the existing strength of the combined fleet to go west to the East Indian Ocean to implement the established combat plan, but he has considered again and again and dare not take this risk. The current resting position of the combined fleet is in the port of Darwin in northern Australia And the Gulf of Carpentaria, if it goes west to the East Indian Ocean, the first hurdle to pass is the land-based air force that plays a piano.

If the United Fleet forcibly goes west to the East Indian Ocean, a big battle will inevitably break out with the land-based aviation of the Independent Division. With the current strength of the United Fleet, Admiral Yamamoto is not sure of victory, even if he breaks through Le Yiqin's land-based air force. The interception of the air force, the next thing the combined fleet has to face is the huge fleet of the land-based air force of the independent division located at the naval and air force base in the Chagos Islands.

Thinking of this, Admiral Yamamoto was a little apprehensive, but it was not an option for the United Fleet to continue to rest in the northern port of Australia. The independent division troops on the Australian battlefield were aggressively attacking. Morishita sent 10,000+ troops to stop them, but they still couldn't stop them. Its offensive pace, step by step, struggled to support, although the battle line was slow, but it was unswervingly advancing towards northern Australia.

As a result, the role of the United Fleet seemed very embarrassing. It stepped forward to help out. The land-based aircraft fleet of the Independent Division Aviation in Australia is a strong opponent. The fleet, with more than a thousand carrier-based aircraft, is in the war zone but does not lend a hand to help, and sit and watch the Imperial Army being beaten to death by the China Independent Division. Loss.

The best place for the United Fleet is the Eastern Pacific Ocean, but where are there enemies? No, if the fleet of the China Independent Division appears in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, General Yamamoto will order the United Fleet to kill it without hesitation, but China is independent The division's fleet, I don't know where it went?

This July, General Yamamoto's mood was similar to that of Emperor Hirohito. He was extremely irritable and depressed, and his temper became extremely irritable. Seeing what was wrong with his hands, it was not only some staff officers of the headquarters who were reprimanded and scolded. Even the second person in the United Fleet, Lieutenant General Matsuda, the chief of staff, was reprimanded repeatedly, which affected the morale of the troops, and the entire United Fleet was in a gloomy state.

Finally, there was a chance for General Yamamoto to get rid of the embarrassing position in the Australian battlefield. The headquarters of the General Staff and the Navy Department jointly issued an order, "Currently, the empire is mobilizing a large number of troops from the North American battlefield to go to the Australian battlefield. In view of this, the huge The sea voyage of our troop transport fleet from North America to Australia requires a strong naval force to escort, and I hereby order your fleet to carry out escort missions from now on!"

After reading the order, Admiral Yamamoto immediately felt relieved. A few hours later, nearly a thousand ships of various types in the United Fleet left northern Australia and headed for the Eastern Pacific Ocean.

Before leaving, General Yamamoto left in a hurry without saying hello to Lieutenant General Morishita, the commander of the Australian Army. After receiving the report, Lieutenant General Morishita spat hard, and in front of his chief of staff He cursed rudely, "Coward! Coward! Humph, this is the so-called invincible combined fleet of the Imperial Navy? This is Yamamoto 56, who is known as the third God of War in the Empire? Shit!"

The current Lieutenant General Morishita is not at the beginning of the independent division's offensive, when the pressure is the greatest, and there are more than [-] troops in his hand. Although the combat effectiveness is not the strongest, there is still no problem with the arrival of reinforcements to support the North American battlefield. of.

The [-] reinforcements from the North American battlefield are already at sea, and Lieutenant General Morishita is confident. He knows that as long as he can withstand the attack of the independent division and ensure that northern Australia is not lost, he will be a great achievement.

Therefore, Lieutenant General Morishita issued an order to his troops to fight for every inch of land. He must defend a certain place at all costs. For those who still have soldiers who can fight, those who lose a place are subject to military law. If there are no jade fragments, the officers and soldiers will be shot on the spot!

Under the strict orders of Lieutenant General Morishita, the Australian Japanese army fought fiercely. The Australian combat troops of the Independent Division, which was divided into four offensives, had a great impact on the speed of advancement. At the same time, the casualties of the troops were also increasing. The front line in the central part is fiercely unfolding, the artillery is booming all day long, and the gunpowder is filled with smoke.

Lieutenant General Morishita ordered the troops to defend the central part of Australia. Not only did he have such a little thought, he had a bigger idea. The Empire and Germany signed a treaty on the division of interests in North America. Judging from the area controlled by the Empire, at most 160 to 150 soldiers would be enough Well, then, of the more than [-] million elite imperial troops on the North American battlefield, at least more than [-] million were transferred to the Australian battlefield!

Coupled with the existing more than 200 imperial troops stationed in Australia, the total strength of the imperial army on the Australian battlefield will reach about [-] million. For such a large and heavy army group, the position of its commander is of great importance. It goes without saying.

After much deliberation, Lieutenant General Morishita feels that he is the most suitable candidate and has natural advantages. He has stayed in Australia for several years and is familiar with the local conditions. Moreover, he is commanding the Imperial Army and fighting fiercely with the China Independent Division. The reason for changing generals!

With all the advantages added together, the position of the commander of the Imperial Australian Army is none other than myself. The epaulettes of the lieutenant general should also be replaced by the epaulets of the general. Now, Lieutenant General Morishita is fighting hard. He braved the artillery fire and went to the front line to cheer up and boost the morale of various troops.

The changes in the situation on the Australian battlefield, the strengthening of the Japanese army's will to resist, and the increasing casualties made Tang Qiusheng aware of the problem. On the one hand, he ordered the four-way attacking troops to slow down the attack speed and fight steadily, focusing on eliminating the vital forces of the Japanese army. On the one hand, he reported the situation to the teacher Tang Qiuli in detail.

The Japanese were busy mobilizing troops from the North American battlefield, and Tang Qiuli was not idle either. According to the order of the division commander, all the corps on the Southwest Pacific battlefield began to prepare for the assembly in southern Australia. After the directly subordinate corps, they attacked Kaliman. The Feng Jiwu Corps of Dan Island became the second unit to be transferred to the Australian battlefield.

Major General Zhou Yushan, the deputy director of the logistics department of the division who was still desperately hoarding supplies to southern Australia, had just sent away the troops directly under him, and soon another main corps was going to be shipped to Australia. Zhang Quan, the minister of the region, please come back.

After receiving Zhou Yushan's telegram, Lieutenant General Zhang Quan, who was full of white hair, energetic and in good health, took a plane from East India and flew back to Yangon, where the logistics department is located, to meet Zhou Yushan. More politely, Zhou Yushan, who had just arrived at the logistics department with a sad face, showed Zhang Quan the order from his master.
