Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 2840 Squeeze the vitality of Japan
Ding Yi seemed confident about whether he could hold Changchun before the arrival of reinforcements, because of the additional air assistance from the HNA force.However, with the arrival of midsummer in 1945, when the weather began to remain above [-] degrees Celsius, something happened that gave him a headache.Because the continuous fighting for nearly two weeks resulted in a large number of deaths on both the offensive and defensive sides, most of these dead were not restrained, and now they began to rot, Ding Yi had to worry about whether there would be a plague.

The relevant situation was reported to Ouyang Yun. Ouyang Yun did not dare to take it lightly, and immediately ordered Tie Linfei to mobilize medicines from all over the country and air-drop them into the Changchun theater. At the same time, he urged the second, third, and eighth armies to speed up their offensive rhythm. , Be sure to drive all the Japanese troops out of China by the end of October.

One day at the end of August 1945, when Koizumi's representative and the US representative began to sign the secret agreement in Melbourne, an unprecedented battle broke out between the Chinese and Japanese armies near Changchun.The reason why it is called unprecedented is because this battle aimed at fighting for Changchun, China and Japan invested a total of more than 300 million troops. The two sides fought fiercely in the five battlefields of Changchun, Fuyu, Shenyang, Tongliao and Dalian. Every day It will cause tens of thousands of soldiers from both countries to die in battle.

Not only in the Chinese battlefield, in order to create trouble for the Japanese army and ease the pressure on Ding Yi's troops, Ouyang Yun also gave Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi orders to strengthen their offensive in Japan at this stage.

Calculating the time, it has been almost four months since the Chinese army sent troops to Kagoshima and set foot on the Japanese mainland.But to the great disappointment of the Chinese people, so far, the Chinese army has not made substantial progress in Japan. The Supreme Command replaced the command led by Chen Ce.

The performance of the Ryukyu Group Army and the Pacific Fleet in Japan was indeed poor, but this was not due to the slackness of the frontline officers and soldiers, but Ouyang Yun's order.

Since Japan began to recruit troops on a large scale in the mainland and transport them to North Korea continuously, Ouyang Yun ordered Chen Ce to slow down the pace of the attack, and the reason he did this was because he saw the hope of wiping out the Japanese army's vital forces on the Korean battlefield.As long as this can be achieved, then even if the Japanese government wants to struggle at the last moment because of the lack of fresh troops, it may not necessarily cause too much trouble for the Chinese army attacking the Japanese mainland.

Regarding Ouyang Yun's intention, both Chen Ce and Bai Chongxi did not take it seriously.They are not time travelers like Ouyang Yun, so they can't see what will happen decades or even a hundred years later, and naturally they don't think that their current "close allies" will one day become China's most powerful enemy.Furthermore, having experienced more wars and seen more deaths, they have long looked down upon soldiers dying on the battlefield, and even think that this is the best destination for soldiers.So in their view, as long as the goal can be achieved, there is not much difference between killing more people and killing fewer people.

Of course, Ouyang Yun is the supreme commander, even if they have doubts about the supreme commander's order, they can only seriously implement it.

Previously, the troops attacking Japan had not been able to perform to their full potential due to orders from the Supreme Command. At this time, they suddenly received an order to fight. From Chen Ce, Bai Chongxi, to ordinary soldiers, they all went crazy.

On the day when Ouyang Yun's order was issued, the Ryukyu Group Army's vanguard of about one division and one brigade flew [-] kilometers under the cover of bombers about the size of an aviation division, and hit Kumamoto in one fell swoop.

The Chinese army did not move, but moved like a storm, which frightened the Japanese government.On the same day, Hirohito summoned Hideki Tojo urgently and asked him about it.

Because of Koji Tojo, Hideki Tojo, who came on stage again, is a completely different person compared to before.Not only has he repeatedly made constructive measures in the military, but he has also made many pioneering achievements in the politics of people's livelihood. Even his deadly opponent Kanji Ishihara now has to admit that "Mr. Tojo has made progress, and may really be able to lead Japan out of the current predicament."

Tojo's outstanding performance won him the trust of Hirohito, which is why Hirohito summoned him as soon as he heard that the Kagoshima front had changed.

Hirohito didn't know that when Hideki Tojo first received the front-line battle report, his reaction was the same as his panic, thinking that the Chinese army was finally about to launch a full-scale offensive.And the reason why he was able to face Hirohito with a calm expression was because he had been explained by his nephew Koji Tojo before the meeting, and after listening to the latter's analysis of the current war situation, he was sure that this was just the result of the Chinese army's response to the war in Northeast China. Only by doing the strain can we maintain a normal state of mind.

"You mean that the Chinese army did this only to support the Northeast battlefield, but what if the Chinese army really launched an offensive because of the weak resistance of the frontline troops?" Hirohito was not a military idiot, and Tojo's answer copied from his nephew did not convince Satisfied, he pressed.

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing will not happen. Although we have moved the main force of our troops to North Korea, we still have more than 300 million troops in the mainland, and as long as you agree, I can organize more than 500 million troops within a week." Wan's army. Your Majesty, in order to defend the honor of you and the Great Japanese Empire, our soldiers can die with the Chinese soldiers at any time. The Chinese army in Kagoshima has a total of only more than [-] troops. They can withstand this Consumed? So, you don’t need to worry at all.”

Tojo's answer did not satisfy Hirohito, because the latter knew exactly what the so-called 500 million troops were.He frowned and said: "I don't need to assume, now that the Chinese army has conquered Kumamoto, do you have any solution to this? After Kumamoto, the Chinese army will definitely attack Saga, which was our important military port before. If the Chinese army Occupying there will mean that they will have an extra military port..."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Chinese army cannot occupy Saga. In Saga, we have assembled an army of more than 50. They will definitely be able to stop the Chinese army."

"Is that right?"

"Your Majesty, please trust me and your soldiers, we will not let you down."

Tojo’s words are not false. In order to deal with the threat of the Chinese army to the Japanese mainland, the Japanese government not only mobilized all the people to organize an unprecedented scale of troops, but also gathered manpower to build a strong fortress between Kumamoto and Saga, which was based on a large number of bunkers. line of defense.According to gossip, in order to build this line of defense in a short period of time, more than [-] Japanese died on the construction site alone. Among these people were middle-aged women and elderly people, as well as teenagers and even children.

It can be said that in order to win this homeland defense war, the Tojo cabinet is squeezing out all the energy of Japan like milking.
