Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 1595 Yashan called back

The frontier positions were abandoned by the Indian and Australian troops, and the Dutch army directly surrendered to the Japanese army. Now if the Japanese army launches an offensive to Singapore, it will be able to drive straight into the city.The situation has become like this, it can be said that the British asked for it.If they don't withdraw all their troops, if they don't use force to seize the life of the Chinese in Singapore and Malaysia, then even if the forward position is lost, they can immediately integrate the troops and establish a second line of defense.But now?The order of troops was disrupted by the Xinghua Volunteer Army. The most deadly thing is that the middle and senior officers were severely damaged in this armed conflict. Two divisions were captured alive or killed by the Volunteer Army because of the division commander. The brigade commander and regiment commander Several more were killed by snipers, and now they have completely become stragglers.As for those independent brigades, their situation is not optimistic. The worst thing is that because one of the regiments formed a rebellion and became the so-called "British Volunteer Army", the officers and soldiers questioned the orders they had previously executed. , and even began to doubt the character of the supreme commander Bai Sihua and Percival, which was a fatal blow to morale.

"I have already asked all the officers in the headquarters to gather troops. It should not be a problem to concentrate the current forces. It should be no problem to gather 2 people. This is enough to resist for a while. However, I don't want the soldiers to make unnecessary sacrifices, so surrender It's inevitable in the end," Percival whispered in Bai Sihua's ear after he was awakened.

Bai Sihua nodded awkwardly, and then said firmly: "I'll go talk to the Chinese! If they don't agree, then we'll fight to the death!"

Percival gritted his teeth, gave him a big hug, and then watched him lead a dozen of his men towards the Chinese crowd in the distance.

Yamamoto 56 personally sat on Wangjiali Island to direct the Japanese offensive against Singapore.Just after nightfall, he received a report from his subordinates that a fierce battle had broken out in the city of Singapore. At first, he was at a loss as to what kind of mystery the British were making.Soma Masamune was with him. He speculated whether the local people responded to the call of the imperial army and erupted in an uprising, and happily asserted: "Your Excellency, it seems that our propaganda policy is very effective. If things go on like this, for example, Vietnam, Burma, Perhaps the French and the British would have been driven out without the imperial army coming."

For his statement, Yamamoto 56 smiled and posted it-Yamamoto has always been a pragmatic person. He clearly knows that although the so-called National Independence Army and National Insurrection Army have provided an excuse for the imperial army to enter Southeast Asia, But at least for now, its meaning is just an excuse.The old devil tapped the table in front of him with his right hand, stared at the map of Southeast Asia by his side, and suddenly stood up a few minutes later and said: "The 'Wei Shan' reported that there were as many as forty ships in the US evacuation fleet, and there were many tens of thousands of them. Ton-class merchant ships, cruise ships, Soma, don’t you think there is something strange about it?”

Soma was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized, and said, "Your Excellency, do you mean that the British want to escape Singapore with the help of the Americans?"

"It's entirely possible! Soma, call Lieutenant General Hashimoto immediately and ask him to launch a tentative attack. I need to know the specific situation on the front line."

"Hai, I'll do it now."

"By the way, send another telegram to Yamada, asking him to immediately lead the Kaga aircraft carrier fleet to approach the coast of Singapore, and prepare to intercept the US evacuation fleet."

"Your Mightiness?"

"Execute it, don't worry, I know this may be a British conspiracy. However, we can't just watch the cooked duck fly. We don't want to provoke the Americans, and the Americans should also dare not provoke us. Take care scale, boarding inspection is no problem."

"Understood!"

At around ten o'clock, Yamamoto 56 received a telegram from Hashimoto Jun, saying that the Dutch army had surrendered to them.Then, only 10 minutes later, he received another telegram. Hashimoto Jun reported in the telegram that he had figured out the number of the front-line enemy army, which was the Indian and Australian retinue army, and had been defeated. He requested to directly attack Singapore. .

At this point, Yamamoto believed that the British really wanted to escape by sea with the help of the Americans.Putting down the telegram, he said to Soma Masamune: "Do the British really want to escape from the sea? Are they still fantasizing about another 'Dunkirk retreat'? Delusion!"

Soma Masamune was very excited, and said: "Your Excellency, let Lieutenant General Hashimoto let them attack! First take Singapore, cut off the British army's life on land, and then let Yamada-kun intercept them from the sea. Hehe, the British army There are a total of 10 to [-] troops in Singapore, right? Including their retinues, there are a total of [-] people. If they are all captured alive, what a great feat! Your Excellency, after this battle, our navy will have one more marshal Already!"

If the British Army in Singapore can really be captured alive, this credit will be enough for Yamamoto 56 to be promoted to the rank of Marshal.Yamamoto couldn't contain his excitement, and he let out a sigh of relief: "As long as the empire's Southeast Asian policy can be implemented smoothly and the current predicament can be improved, what is my personal honor and disgrace? Soma, call Hashimoto Jun back, and go west to the fleet The general headquarters agreed to their request and ordered them to take Singapore by noon tomorrow. Call Yamada to avoid falling into the trap of the British, and be more humble to the Americans. Well, to prevent Thomas, Bai Sihua and Percy Val hid among the American expatriates, and some other generals, just let it go if they can't be caught, these three people must not allow them to slip through the net!"

"Hay!"

Almost at the same time, in Phnom Penh, in the headquarters of the Xuebing Expeditionary Army, Pan Meiren suddenly stood up, hissed with relief, and said, "'Yashan' called back!"

"Okay!" Ouyang Yun said, then sat down heavily, and snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.

"Yashan" only replied two words "Understood", but it was enough.

When the Chinese from Singapore and Malaysia started to board the ship, Zhang Liangfeng sent a confidential telegram to the headquarters.When Ouyang Yun and others learned that the British army had attacked the Chinese in Singapore and Malaysia and wanted to use "martial arts" to deprive them of the opportunity to escape from Singapore, they all cursed in anger.Everyone was tired of scolding, calmed down, and then thought of a very serious problem-the Xinghua Volunteer Army and the British Army were fighting fiercely in Singapore, and the Japanese could not be unaware.Yamamoto 56 is not a stupid person, and he will definitely think that there is a problem with the "American evacuation fleet". So what countermeasures will he take?At this time, whether "Yashan" can make a contribution and successfully attract the attention of the Japanese army is extremely important.

Just when Yamada defined the "Kaga" aircraft carrier as the flagship and led as many as 3000 warships to the waters off the coast of Singapore where the "Weishan" frigate was located, the two Song-class submarines of the Xuebing Army had already arrived. Quietly lurking on the seabed about [-] meters away from the "Wei Shan", ready to attack.

The commander of "Yashan" is Xu Kai, the supreme commander of the submarine force of the Haikou Fleet.It was the first time for this young admiral of the cadet army to lead an army. He was driving the most advanced naval weapon of the cadet army, and the mission they were performing was also unprecedentedly difficult.
