Chapter 941 Book the battlefield
Looking at the Southeast Asian squadrons who were huddled in the fortifications like quails, the captain of Kitahara Squadron sighed helplessly. Although he had known for a long time that the combat effectiveness of these Southeast Asian squadrons would definitely not be enough, after seeing these squadrons, Kitahara still felt a little despair after seeing these squadrons.
Even those Guangzhou National Defense Forces who only know how to collect taxes are threatening to join the army, they are much better than these Southeast Asian monkeys! Beiyuanying thought fiercely that these monkeys are only worthy of being coolies!
The only thing they can do when they go to the battlefield is to add merit to the enemy. This is not just the idea of Beiyuanying, but in fact it is also the idea of the commanders of the entire Chinese Expeditionary Army front-line positions.
The combat effectiveness of these Southeast Asian troops is really bad. Even if the opposite national defense force is bombarded, they can scream and try to escape from the position.
Although these people have experienced more than once of battle, the group of people will subconsciously escape in private every time they are bombarded. This makes the Japanese commanders very angry, but they can do nothing.
The Japanese commanders above the corps commander of the base, all knew what these Southeast Asian threats came to join the army. To put it bluntly, they came to the Japanese army. If they were slaughtered or were too stimulating, they might not be sure that someone would surrender to the National Defense Forces right now.
Therefore, apart from being scolded, these Southeast Asian threats did not encounter any other harsh criticism. Even meals and rest were the same as regular soldiers, which was considered an incredible treatment.
You know, even if it is the threat of the Guangzhou Wang Zhaoming government to join the army, it will not be treated like this!
Speaking of Old Wang, he is now very tragic. Wang Zhaoming seemed to have been forgotten directly in the late stage of the Shanghai Battle. The messages they conveyed to the National Defense Forces did not receive any response.
At that time, Hata Shunruo seemed to have noticed Wang Zhaoming's thoughts and sent him to Japan directly in the name of "treatment and safety". Now Wang Zhaoming and his wife live in Tokyo like a prisoner, who is completely monitored in life in Japan.
The other former Guangzhou government officials also chose to flee in panic without receiving a response from the National Defense Force. It is obvious that the National Defense Force is not ready to accept them.
The only thing they can do now is to go far away and avoid disaster. The Japanese have their own considerations in this regard. If they still attack China in the future, these people can still play a role.
Therefore, these "masters" were kept in Tokyo like Wang Zhaoming. If it was useful, they would be activated. If the situation was unfavorable...
In Jianmen Port, Taizhou, a large group of people were constantly driven down from transport ships and warships like pigs. Their words were squirming and incomprehensible.
They all gathered at the dock under the Japanese army's drive. Then a set of new clothes were sent to their hands. Then a group of officer-like figures walked down from the warship.
Under the leadership of these people, the people who spoke the language lined up in a scattered queue and walked out of the dock. The newly built train station was nearby, and they boarded the train and were taken to the front line.
There, they will receive a batch of guns and ammunition. But they will not go directly to the battlefield. They are simply living with a group of troops from the same place as them.
The transport ships that had already gone into the air did not drive away directly, but saw a group of orderly Japanese troops stepping out of the barracks. Then they boarded the ship under the command of Japanese officers.
During this period, the reconnaissance planes on the escort aircraft carriers took off continuously, patrolling any movements hundreds of miles around. After more than half an hour of organizing the boarding ship, the ship finally drove away. Under the escort of the warship, it slowly left the dock.
Such a scene continued to be staged in the areas occupied by the Japanese army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and all the residents of towns near the docks were cleared. The Japanese army blocked the entire area. Only troops were stationed in these areas.
"Will we kill them or let them go?" Su Zongzhe kept lit the table in his command center, and in front of him were the best staff members of the entire National Defense Forces.
All the information and current situation have been sent to them. Through the intelligence of the Nanyang Military Region, Su Zongzhe has determined that the Japanese army was transferred to Southeast Asian troops to fight in China.
And the original Japanese troops would definitely take the opportunity to evacuate. So a huge question was placed in front of the National Defense Forces: Should we stop the Japanese troops or watch them evacuate?
If they were to stop them, the troops of the two major military regions in East China and North China must be moved now, march from Shanghai to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, tearing apart the Japanese defensive positions and knocking them out of their docks.
But if you fight like this, the losses will undoubtedly be huge. First of all, this time the Japanese evacuation operation directly used the entire Japanese Navy's joint fleet, and the command was the famous Japanese Navy general who sneaked into Pearl Harbor - Yamafiliu.
Although the Japanese Navy lost two aircraft carriers and four battleships, this was far from the point of causing the Japanese Navy to be damaged. The reason why the last attack was successful was also closely related to the Japanese Navy underestimation of the enemy.
This loss caused Japan to directly call its strongest naval general to carry out this retreat mission. The Japanese Navy now has twelve battleships, aircraft carriers, and light aircraft carriers.
The 18 heavy patrols were patrolled, and the 25 light patrols were patrolled. The destroyers reached nearly 100 terrifying! In order to evacuate smoothly, Shan Fifty-six almost drove all of these warships.
The huge firepower of these warships ensures that they can provide strong firepower support to the ground forces. The fighter jets on those aircraft carriers will also cause huge damage to the National Welfare Forces.
If you choose to cut off the Japanese army's retreat, the National Defense Forces will likely face an extremely difficult battle. After rigorous tactical deduction, the staff of the General Staff concluded that the three major military regions of North China, East China and South China lost at least 50% of the war, and they could not completely annihilate these Japanese troops.
The conclusion of the Air Force is that it is necessary to do a good job in combating more than 500 fighter jets to be sure to withstand the Japanese attack. The Japanese army deployed this time had the lowest aircraft carriers that could carry more than 50 aircraft, and the highest one was able to carry nearly 100 aircraft.
After all, the Japanese army can use more than a thousand fighter jets this time. The complete industrial chain is the basis for the Japanese army to continue fighting with the National Defense Forces.
After obtaining the resources from Southeast Asia, Japan's industrial chain began to explode. New fighter jets were manufactured and sent to various troops.
The Navy was allocated more resources due to the excellent performance of Mount Fifty-Six in the Pearl Harbor attack. Part of these resources were converted into warships and part of them were converted into fighter jets.
"Difficult!" A staff officer sighed and said to Su Zongzhe: "Chief of Staff, if we fight hard, we will suffer a lot of losses. At least three legions and the Air Force will be impossible to restore combat effectiveness within half a year."
That's it, but it's time to watch the Japanese take off from under his nose. None of the rooms is willing to do so.
You come to my house to kill someone and set fire, and pat your butt and want to leave?! Where is such a cheap thing?! After eating it, I have to spit it out! I have to take it and I have to pay it back!
Those who kill and set fire should not think of living in peace. Without their blood to pay tribute to those who died in battle and died in vain, none of these veterans of the National Defense Forces would feel that they were living in a smooth life.
"War, the losses are huge. Let go, I am not willing to give up..." A staff officer lamented and said what everyone was thinking. The people here are veterans of the General Staff of the National Defense Forces. None of them has been gradually promoted without experiencing actual combat.
No one in the Defense Forces can compare with their own combat effectiveness and the understanding of the Japanese army. This tactical deduction has been carried out countless times. Even the most optimistic estimate is that the three major military regions of the Defense Forces will have to lose more than 30% of their troops to barely eliminate most of the Japanese army.
The Japanese army can evacuate most of their troops from China with their powerful navy and massive transport ships. It is even possible that they are doing this now.
Until now, the industrial capacity of the National Defense Forces has not been compared with that of the Japanese that have developed, prepared for war, and experienced several wars. With the effective support of resources, the Japanese can produce nearly 2,000 fighter jets and more than 100 artillery pieces per month.
With the effective support of Southeast Asian resources, Japan is constantly expanding its production capacity, such as medium-sized tanks. It has now been issued a requirement that it must produce more than 500 vehicles per year.
After several years of combat, some of the Japanese troops had been consumed. In order to maintain the battle, Japanese had to choose to continue recruiting troops. At this time, the population of daily and local governments was 73.14 million, and most Japanese women had to choose to work in order to increase production capacity.
Although there are now 10 million women participating in work every day, only more than 2 million are participating in military industry manufacturing. However, this number is increasing, and the agricultural and forestry resources in Southeast Asia are greatly liberating the labor pressure of the land. Women who were originally engaged in agricultural and forestry work have begun to gradually transform into military industry production.
The United States and Europe's abandonment of Southeast Asia and support for Southeast Asia have caused Japan to acquire more resources than in history, which are constantly transfusions to Japan through transport ships.
On the other hand, the National Defense Forces, on the one hand, are not equipped with skilled workers. Secondly, a large number of resources are too wide to be distributed, and many require transportation to arrive at the factory. The efficiency and performance cannot keep up with the Japanese. The losses are relatively large... and other willingness has caused the current production capacity of the National Defense Forces to be far lower than that of Japanese.
In the word of the game, it means that the daily blood recovery is fast and the National Defense Forces recover slowly. However, the National Defense Forces have a thick blood, so the daily life can only take advantage of special terrains.
"The commander-in-chief is here! Salute!!" Suddenly, a shout came from outside the door. Everyone was stunned. When they heard the sound, they knew that it was their commander-in-chief who was here.
Everyone stood up quickly and welcomed the arrival of Tu Mengben, the commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces.
"Hahaha... I'm still worried about the sluts in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?!" As soon as I came in, everyone saluted Tu Mengben. Tu Mengben smiled and asked these staff members to sit down, and then sat in the main seat without hesitation.
"Commander..." a staff officer said, "We have been deducing many times, and the best result is that the three major military regions have lost 30% of their troops, and the losses of at least 300 fighter jets in the Air Force can barely withstand the counterattack of the Japanese."
"If we continue to fight, we will undoubtedly suffer huge losses. And we will not be able to resume the battle for a long time. But if we don't fight, we are not willing to accept it!"
Tu Mengben looked at these young staff members and laughed, saying, "Do you think so alone, or do everyone think so?"
The staff members were stunned and looked at each other and didn't know what their commander-in-chief wanted to express. Looking at their performance, Tu Mengben couldn't help but sigh.
"It's too good to complain and prevent heartbrokenness. You should always look at things! You are still looking at affairs with your old eyes. How can this happen?!" Tu Mengben lit the table and said to these staff members.
"In his "Xiaoyan Second Movement of Capital to Establish a Vandal Fence": Since ancient times, those who do not plan for the whole world are not worth planning for a while; those who do not plan for the overall situation are not worth planning for a territory. As a counselor of the National Defense Force, you can't even compare with the vision of an old man in the late Qing Dynasty?!"
As soon as Tu Mengben said this, Su Zongzhe muttered in his heart. Chen Danran is not a simple person. He was able to write at the age of 9 and was extremely intelligent since childhood. Later, he took the exam in Tongcheng, among thousands of people. He could even surpass all the celebrities. Then he passed the imperial examination in one fell swoop in the 19th year of Guangxu.
"The battle between us and those sluts is not a battle of a city or a land, nor a moment of fighting!" Tu Mengben said, his face becoming serious.
"Indeed, we can pay a certain price to keep most of the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops. But is this price worth it?" Tu Mengben's words made the staff members think.
They also vaguely felt that this price was not worth it. Indeed, it was a good thing to kill the Japanese army in large quantities. But their own losses, the damage caused by fighting on the country and the reconstruction after the war were all things that the entire coalition government and the National Defense Forces need to consider!
For example, in the recent battle of Shanghai, a fierce attack on Shanghai was defeated, but the entire Shanghai was also destroyed. The former financial center of China and the entire Asia financial center, known as Shanghai in Paris in the East, is now the only remaining remains of broken eaves and walls.
The new mayor sent to Shanghai was in tears, and he could not work in a wet office building, but he didn't have a penny. Now the coalition government is mainly concerned with military industry and agriculture. It is impossible for the roots to have large amounts of funds for reconstruction for Shanghai.
The most important task of the poor mayor now is to lead the citizens to clear the ruins and sell the various shrapnel and warheads found in the ruins to the coalition government for funds for urban reconstruction.
In addition to training, the troops of the two major military regions in East China and North China were also forced to join the big cleanup activity. The battle was so exciting, but it was really painful to clean up after the battle.
If the coalition government had not prepared for it, many of the military tents had been removed, and many citizens who had been bombarded in ruins had to tremble in the cold wind.
And a good Eastern Paris was ruined. It was so satisfying to kill more than 300,000 Japanese troops. However, reconstruction became extremely painful.
"We have a chance to annihilate these sluts!" Tu Mengben looked directly at the staff officers and said, "But it is not worth fighting like this on our country."
"In the past, there was no way. These gangsters planned not to leave when they came. So we had to fight to the death. But now they were leaving. Why do we still have to fight on our own territory?! If we want to fight, we will go out to fight. If we break it, we will not lose it even if we beat it up, right?"
If the staff members have not reacted after hearing this, they are not worthy of being called the elite of the National Defense Forces Staff. The commander-in-chief's words made them realize it suddenly.
It’s not that we don’t fight, but we have to take into account our own losses after fighting. The current strategic purpose of domestic combat is to completely drive the Japanese out of the country.
Now they are leaving themselves, why do they have to work hard and fight against them for great losses?! This is a great victory, but after the fight, they still have to spend money, spend time to rebuild, right?!
The battlefield is not limited to China. The National Defense Forces have already sowed seeds in Southeast Asia and have reached consensus from Europe and the United States. Simply put, the National Defense Forces should now turn their attention to Southeast Asia.
There is the battlefield for the decisive battle with the Japanese army. Anyway, Southeast Asia is not in China, and even if the steel storm is wiped out, the National Defense Forces do not have to pay attention to the reconstruction work.
"Besides, the Japanese kindly sent us so much coolies. Isn't it a waste of their hearts if they don't accept it?!" Tu Mengben laughed and looked at the staff officers and said.
"We have a lot of basic projects to build! Think about it, Tibet, Xinjiang, Mongolia, etc., our railways have not yet been connected, which is extremely unfavorable to our transportation of materials..."
Speaking of this level, it is enough. It is obvious that these Southeast Asian threats with low combat effectiveness have been booked by the National Defense Forces to do engineering labor.
Whether it is Tibet, Xinjiang, or even Mongolia, it is undoubtedly necessary to build a large number of railways. If it is their own compatriots, no one will be willing to die.
But these prisoners of war...hahaha.
The United States' railway network that connects the whole United States was built with the blood and tears of Chinese workers. Now, the National Defense Forces and the Union Government have decided to use the blood and sweat of these Southeast Asian and Japanese prisoners of war to compensate for the damage caused by their invasion.
"Do you understand now?" Looking at the expressions of these staff members, Tu Mengben knew that they had understood their thoughts. But he still asked subconsciously.
"I understand!" the staff responded loudly.
"Okay! The American engineers have arrived. I specially selected technicians from the factory to repair and produce the aircraft carrier." Tu Mengben said directly to these staff members: "And your mission is to improve our offensive plan against Southeast Asia as soon as possible! There is the battlefield where we fight these sluts in decisive battle!"
Chapter completed!
