Chapter 1579
Ouyang Yun concluded that the British army would surrender because he was familiar with this period of history.Although the Japanese army entered the Indian Ocean a year earlier than that time and space, and the attack sequence was completely reversed, the fundamental factors that determined the outcome of this battle were not different—the British had not fought for a long time, while the Japanese were The blood bubbles big, and each other is weak and the other is strong. When the sea and air forces that the British army relied on most were defeated by the Japanese army, in fact, its outcome was already doomed.

For the Japanese, the Japanese army's strong attack on the Indian Ocean is the best way to solve the growing shortage of domestic combat readiness resources.Not only that, but if they can capture Vietnam and Burma as they wish, they will be able to open up a new front, so that their troops will point directly at China's rear.This is also the reason why the Xuebing Army had to send elite troops into Vietnam despite the huge pressure from the North Korean puppet army on the frontal battlefield.For Western countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States that maintain huge colonial interests in Southeast Asia, the Japanese's actions can be said to have stabbed a poisonous needle in their hearts.The British are the most depressed, because before that, Britain and Japan have maintained a non-aligned ally relationship, and even the Japanese navy still has a strong shadow of the British teacher.This time, the Japanese swung the stick without saying a word, and the British caught off guard and ate several sap sticks. This has become a joke in the world's diplomatic circles.The anxiety of the Dutch and French is not much worse than that of the British, but their homeland has already fallen into the hands of Germany, so the way to express their anger is rather single and boring.Because of the relationship between Ang Boss and other soldiers, the French took a clever countermeasure. They reached an agreement with the cadet army to get what they needed, and won the military support of the cadet army. One of the countries that kept its colonial interests.Among people from Britain, France, the United States and the Netherlands, Americans have the most tangled and complicated emotions.On the one hand, because the U.S. government focused on Europe and did not want to go to war with Japan, although there were endless protests, it did not take any substantive actions; After sweeping away, the Philippines occupied by the United States will be hard to show. The US government is anxious and always thinking about doing something to feel at ease.It was under the leadership of this kind of thinking that the Americans quietly became the shadow fourth party outside the "China, Britain and France" tripartite alliance, and began to use their huge commercial transport fleet to provide military aid to China in exchange for China's military strength in Southeast Asia Export, and help the British mobilize military supplies from the mainland to the Indian Ocean, always thinking that they can contain the advance of Japan, a war beast, at the lowest cost.

In addition to the United States, Britain, France and the Netherlands, the Australian government also maintained 11-point vigilance against Japanese troops entering the Indian Ocean.As a member of the Federation of Empires on which the sun never sets, Australia is obliged to help the British resist foreign aggression, and in Singapore, the Eighth Australian Division and the No.[-] Indian Division are fighting for the British.

When a wolf tooth named Cui Lin under the wolf head group left Phnom Penh with seven brothers and started to march towards the Malay Peninsula, Ouyang Yun and his generals gathered around a huge sand table and were discussing how to do as much as possible. Many Chinese and overseas Chinese trapped in the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula were rescued.

"I hope the British can hold on longer. In that case, we can rescue more local Chinese. When the country was most difficult, they donated money and airplanes. Now, it's time for the country to repay them! If necessary, I will dispatch an army to rescue them," Ouyang Yun said solemnly after the meeting started.

"It's very difficult!" Guo Kui said: "Not to mention that we don't know when the British will surrender, but how can we get them out if we have this time? If we send troops directly into the Malay Peninsula, the Japanese army will With an aircraft carrier providing air support, it is useless to infiltrate if the scale is small, but if the scale is large, it will make the Japanese seize the opportunity.”

"The British are too stupid to be successfully attacked by the Japanese in Segamat. It is impossible to expect the British and the Japanese to do their best. Apart from surrendering, the British probably have to ask the Americans to help them transfer. The problem is, the Americans Are you willing to take the risk?" Chu Tiange said.

Ouyang Yun: "Even if it's an adventure, the British will try to do it. Don't forget, not long ago, they just completed a Dunkirk retreat that attracted worldwide attention. And this will be our only chance As long as the Americans are willing to help the British, then we can organize a fleet to mix with the American fleet and transport as many local Chinese and overseas Chinese as possible. But before that, we must stir up the sea in Southeast Asia. It needs to be more muddy!"

In the Malay Peninsula, the British have not given up resistance.On the one hand, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill asked the U.S. government to put pressure on the Japanese government, hoping to defeat others without fighting through negotiations.On the other hand, he appointed General Wavell, the commander-in-chief of the British Army Command in the Middle East, as the commander-in-chief of the British Army in India, and hoped that Wavell would be able to rebuild his feats like he defeated the Italian army in the Middle East.After Wavell rushed to India, he immediately gathered all the land-based and sea-based fighters he could mobilize to bombard the Japanese bases in the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, and destroyed several oil wells on Sumatra.

The most fundamental purpose of Japan sending troops to the Indian Ocean is to obtain oil resources on Sumatra Island.It can be said that Wavell hit their weakness in doing so.Yamamoto 56 immediately mobilized two aircraft carrier fleets to station in the Java Sea, and regularly dispatched fighter jets to cruise.And he made this arrangement on the front foot, and on the back foot Wavell commanded two divisions of the British army to storm Segamat from Negeri Sembilan.The two sides immediately launched an offensive and defensive battle around Segamat.

The war in Segamat was raging, and two Song-class submarines with a displacement of 1250 tons left the pier at Haikou Base of the Xuebing Army Navy, fully loaded with fuel and weapons.The Song-class submarine is a new generation of conventionally powered submarine independently developed by the Xuebing Army, representing the most advanced technology of the Xuebing Army's naval armament.Three submarines of this type have been produced by the Xuebing Army so far, and they have no actual combat experience before.Ouyang Yun dispatched two ships at one time, and let them carry out long-distance voyage missions to deal with the unprecedentedly large Japanese-Western conquest fleet, which shows his determination to save the Chinese in Singapore.

Coincidentally, on the same day that the two Song-class submarines sailed to the Indian Ocean battlefield, the aircraft carriers converted from two Japanese Yamato-class battleships were launched at the same time.So, when Yamamoto 56 received a domestic secret telegram and smiled happily when he learned that the "Yamato" and "Musashi" aircraft carriers were officially launched for sea trials, adding two new forces to the Imperial Navy's aircraft carrier group, he didn't know, The two submarines of the Xuebing Army were pointing their swords at the Gulf of Thailand, quietly showing their bright fangs.
