Chapter 785 Do you believe me
The bomber was shot and smoke rose, and the pilot was hit on the face by broken glass, and his vision began to blur.
He knew that he could not do it anymore, so he pushed the pole and smashed the bomber directly into the Japanese destroyer.
The bomber had lost control at this time and was unable to directly hit the destroyer.
The bombers inside the bomber saw the bomber crashing into the enemy ship. They hurriedly dropped the bomb. The bomber plunged into the sea and sank after the explosion. All the crew members died heroically.
But two giant bombs fell down and hit the Japanese destroyer.
The giant bomb exploded violently, sending the destroyer directly into the seabed.
After the destroyer was sunk, the Japanese aircraft carrier was exposed, and other Japanese warships had no time to come.
A large number of bombers flew over the aircraft carrier. The pilots of the Golden Triangle and the Non-Fox Team continued to dive into the aircraft carrier in the fierce anti-aircraft artillery fire from the enemy ships. Giant bombs ignited the aircraft carrier. In the rolling smoke, the aircraft carrier began to tilt, and its huge body sank to the bottom of the sea little by little.
Other Japanese warships were also violently bombed by bombers, and those Japanese warships that had already started fled the coast of the Malay Peninsula.
Gao Jiu received a report that he had already dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese navy, so he ordered the air force to stop pursuing.
Originally, if he continued to attack the Japanese warships, it would cause greater trauma to the Japanese navy, but Gao Jiu did not want to do so. He did not want to force the Japanese navy to come and take revenge, nor did he want the pilots to suffer greater losses.
Gao Jiu sent a telegram to the commander of the First Navy Fleet, asking them to contact the commander of the Southeast Asian Navy Fleet through their relationship, telling them not to participate in the war between Gao Jiu and Fengwen of Yamashita, and that the water of the well will not violate the river in the future.
In Malaysia, the Japanese naval fleet was hit by Gao Jiu three times in a row, not only losing almost all of the carrier-based aircraft, but also sank six warships, including aircraft carriers.
Just as Gao Jiu sent bombers to attack the Japanese fleet, the fleet commander looked at the bombers flying in the sky, and felt very desperate at that time.
Later, the bombers turned around and left, and the commander of the Japanese fleet felt very glad.
When he received the news from the First Navy Fleet of Dalian, he realized that it was Gao Jiu who showed mercy to his fleet.
He had no confidence in defeating Gao Jiu and no longer wanted to continue to get entangled with Gao Jiu, so he decided to accept Gao Jiu's suggestion and ordered the fleet to withdraw from the Strait of Malacca.
When Yamashita Bongmoto saw the naval fleet leaving, his heart was filled with despair.
He knew that the large-scale attack of the coalition forces led by Gao Jiu was about to begin.
Sure enough, the bombers of the coalition forces flew over the Japanese position and bombed wildly, and then the coalition forces began to attack.
However, what puzzled Yamashita Tomoto was that the vanguard of the coalition forces had only advanced 3 kilometers and stopped, and even artillery no longer bombarded the artillery.
Yamashita Fengfu was already ready to fight to the death with Gao Jiujiu, but he didn't expect that the coalition forces would stop attacking. He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he ordered the troops to stop shelling. While asking the troops to repair fortifications, he sent scouts to figure out what Gao Jiu wanted to do.
Gao Jiu's actions not only confused Yamashita Fengwen, but also made George confused.
He found Gao Jiu and asked, "Mr. Gao, there is no threat from the Japanese Navy and Air Force now. Why not hurry up and kill those Japanese troops?"
Gao Jiu said: "Don't worry, wait and see."
George asked in confusion: "What are you waiting for?"
Gao Jiu said: "The Japanese Navy has temporarily withdrawn. I don't know if they will come to take revenge again. We must wait until the situation of the Japanese Navy is clear before we can launch a large-scale attack. Otherwise, the coalition forces will suffer heavy losses."
George said: "Didn't the Japanese Navy's fleet have been withdrawn? What are you worried about?"
Gao Jiu said: "That's not necessarily the case. Do you guarantee that they won't come back if they withdraw?"
George knew that Gao Jiu was wrong, but he had no way to refute it because he could not guarantee whether the Japanese Navy would come back.
He was very depressed and had to report the situation here to the British Bronze Commander.
The British Bronze Commander was very happy to hear that the Japanese naval fleet had left the Strait of Malacca. When they were expecting Gao Jiu to quickly take Malaysia, they received such a telegram from George. They were immediately angry and thought that Gao Jiu would not fight at all. This was a typical delay in combat. Moreover, they also heard that Gao Jiu had the opportunity to deal with a greater blow to the Japanese naval fleet, but they voluntarily gave up.
They felt that Gao Jiu's behavior was incredible, so they sent a telegram to George, asking him to question Gao Jiu on behalf of the Tongshen.
George told Gao Jiu about the British Bronze Commander's doubts about Gao Jiu.
Gao Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to him, but Wang Zhankui turned against him.
He said, "You British people know nothing, you can only sit there and talk sarcastic words. I ask you, you said you are responsible for dealing with the Japanese naval fleet, what is the result? Did you fight the Japanese naval fleet away?
After killing the Japanese naval fleet, do you know how many pilots, fighter jets and bombers we lost? All the equipment and logistics support of the coalition forces here are provided by our Golden Triangle. What did you British do?
There are two divisions in Kuala Lumpur now, with more than 50,000 people. If you ask the coalition forces to fight, how many people will die? You must have the ability and try fighting yourself.
You British are so stingy. You provided 10 million pounds, but do you know how much money we have spent now? Attacking Malaysia is to fight for you British people, and they have to sacrifice the lives of our soldiers and spend our money. Do you do such a stupid thing? For the sake of the anti-Japanese war, we do not care about any price to fight against the Japanese army. You can't help with anything. I'm still talking here. If you believe it or not, we will return it to Thailand now?"
Wang Zhankui asked a series of questions, leaving George speechless.
Although he was very angry, after thinking about it, he felt that what he said was indeed reasonable. They would not do such a thing if they were replaced by British people.
After thinking about it, he asked, "Is this battle in Malaysia still going to be fought? I am just a liaison officer. Can you give me an accurate message and report to the British Bronze Commander."
Gao Jiu said happily: "General George, you don't have to worry. We will never be vague in the fight against Japan and the devils. However, when to launch an attack, we must decide according to the situation."
After listening for a long time, George still couldn't understand what Gao Jiu was going to do. He left with confusion.
He knew that the British commander in the coalition had a good relationship with Gao Jiu, so he came to ask the British commander for advice.
The British commander agreed to George and he went to Gao Jiu to ask what the situation was.
After hearing the British commander's words, Gao Jiu asked, "Do you believe me?"
The British commander said affirmatively: "I absolutely trust Mr. Gao."
Gao Jiu said: "We want to conquer Malaysia. We face the Japanese army, the Fifth Division and the 18th Division. These two divisions are the absolute main forces of the Japanese army, and their fighting will is very tenacious.
Now that we attack them, they have no way out. In this case, they will definitely fight to the death. Of course, the coalition forces also include your British army and the Myanmar army under your command. Think about it, even if this battle is won, how many people will die? How many soldiers can you have left under your command?"
The British would never underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. It can be said that since the war started, they have been suppressed and defeated by the Japanese army, and they can even be said to have been defeated repeatedly. The British commander, who followed Gao Jiu, continued to win the battle with the Japanese army.
He nodded and said, "Mr. Gao, you are right. I think you must have a way to deal with the Japanese army."
Gao Jiu said: "We have some proverbs in China that when you go urgently, you should eat rice bite by bite. In short, the meaning is the same, that is, don't be too hasty when you encounter something.
Now we have made great progress, eliminating the threat from the Japanese Navy and Air Force and forcing the Japanese army to concentrate their main force in Kuala Lumpur.
The next thing is to divide and disintegrate the Japanese army, prevent them from rushing to jump to the wall, fight with the coalition forces, and try their best to reduce casualties in the coalition forces.
You and I are all men who lead the troops. As commanders, we cannot just consider whether we have achieved the goal of combat? We must consider more how to reduce the lives and safety of the soldiers who follow us and trust our people.
You can rest assured, I naturally have a way to deal with the Japanese army."
The British commander said: "Mr. Gao, my British soldiers and I have absolutely trust in you and obey your arrangements."
Gao Jiu said: "We have fought side by side for so many years, and have been comrades who share life and death, friends, and brothers.
As the commander of the coalition forces, of course I want to seek greater benefits for all the coalition soldiers participating in the war. If you believe me, you also hope that you will cooperate with my next actions."
The British commander said, "Mr. Gao, just give me your orders. I will obey your arrangements in everything."
George had been waiting in the British command center. When he saw the British commander come back, he hurriedly asked, "What does Mr. Gao mean?"
The British commander said: "Mr. Gao has always been determined to fight against the calendar. You have also seen that Mr. Gao not only sent troops to Malaysia, but also drove away the Japanese naval fleet. He had already made up his mind to attack Kuala Lumpur, but this matter was in some trouble."
George asked, "What's the trouble?"
The British commander said: "Mr. Gao has worked hard to provide a lot of equipment for the coalition forces and the Malaysian guerrillas, and has also lost a lot of aircraft and pilots in the process of attacking the Japanese fleet. Mr. Gao didn't say anything about such a huge loss, which is really admirable.
However, you also know that Mr. Gao’s own troops only have more than 1,000 guerrillas in Taohuashan, and the rest are coalition forces.
We are the British army, and as the British army, we have no choice but to serve the British army. However, those Thai troops, the Guo army, also the Myanmar army under our command, do not need to shed blood and sacrifice for the interests of British. It is entirely for Mr. Gao's face. If they do not give them enough benefits, they will not be willing to serve the British. If the coalition forces have different ambitions and are not united, if they really launch an attack on the Japanese army, it may be difficult to win and may be eaten by the Japanese army. Mr. Gao is having a headache about this matter."
George said: "Didn't they have given them £10 million and the mining rights for those gold mines?"
The British commander said, "You are right. Mr. Gao is a trustworthy person. He has no objection, but think about it, who would like to share such a little benefit with all coalition forces, compared with the price they paid for their bloody sacrifice?"
George knew that the British commander made sense, but he had no authority to provide more benefits to the coalition forces attacking Malaysia. He hesitated and did not know how to explain to the British Bronze Commander.
The British commander said: "General George, actually, I think the British Copper Command has a lofty strategic vision. Think about it, how much benefit can the British again control Malaysia? The economic income of a year is astronomical. If Malaysia cannot be recovered, how much will the British lose? Why can't we provide some more benefits to the coalition forces so that they can willingly work hard for the interests of our British?"
George understood and thought the deal was cost-effective, but he couldn't open his mouth when he asked him to talk about this matter with Tongshen again.
As a liaison officer, when he does things at this level, he will have the impression that he is unfavorable and will affect his future in the future.
Seeing George worried, the British commander said: "General George, I will ask you a question. Who is the person who is most familiar with Malaysia in our UK and the person who cares most?"
George's eyes lit up when he heard this.
He said happily: "I understand, thank you for your reminder, I will draft the telegram now."
London.
Sir Smith turned out to be the British Governor to Malaysia. After the Japanese army occupied Malaysia, he was forced to flee back to Britain.
He lost his fiefdom like an ancient lord, and was in a semi-retired state in London. He was unwilling to give up and always hoped to return to Malaysia and become the local emperor again.
