Chapter 1447 I can't sit still
Thailand's Tak Province, the war room of the Myanmar Expeditionary Army General Headquarters.
Senior Japanese generals of Okamura Yasuji, Kimura Hitaro, Kawabian Masazo, Anda 23rd, gathered together, and were idle and used the Myanmar Chinese Expeditionary Force as an imaginary enemy to conduct sand table flag deduction.
The Myanmar Chinese Expeditionary Force was originally the mortal enemy of the Japanese Myanmar Expeditionary Force, and it was the fundamental significance of the existence of the Myanmar Expeditionary Force.
But here, the Chinese Expeditionary Force in Myanmar is called an imaginary enemy, because the Japanese government has given up its fantasy about Myanmar and has drained half of the Burmese Expedition Force.
The Myanmar dispatched troops naturally did not have the ability to take the initiative to attack Myanmar. Their mission has become a gateway to defend against the attack of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and defend the Japanese-occupied areas in Southeast Asia.
However, the Chinese Expeditionary Force occupying Myanmar was not interested in attacking the solid defense system that Okamura Yasuji spent countless efforts to build, but was just devoted to training troops and elite troops!
This made Okamura Nagaji and others who were eager to take revenge and make achievements very distressed, especially after receiving the order from the base camp some time ago, they all felt particularly disappointed and depressed!
"Hisser General, Chief of Staff! We have just received an important piece of information from the North African battlefield!"
At this moment, a Japanese staff officer rushed in and handed a document to Okamura Yiji with great respect, "The Battle of Matrul has ended, the German and Italian allies have suffered a crushing defeat, and the North African Allies have won a great victory!"
"Nani Rommel was really defeated?"
Hearing this, Okamura Yasuji's expression changed drastically. He grabbed the documents quickly and quickly browsed them.
After carefully looking at it three times, Okamura Nishi said in a very heavy voice: "It will be like this in the end. Damn Yang Fan, how did you do it? Are you really a devil?"
After Kimura Hitotaro took the document and read it, he praised Okamura Yiji and said, "Your Majesty, you are so amazing, you have really come true! You expected it half a year ago."
"No, how could the German allies be defeated so badly?"
"Yes, didn't it mean that Rommel's African Legion has more than 1 million troops, countless tanks and planes?"
"How come the damn Chinese Expeditionary Force can't even win the German allies?"
"Baga! This news is really bad for the Axis camp and the Great Japanese Empire!"
"How can we defeat this hateful Chinese commander?"
The senior Japanese generals of Zheng San and Anda, the 23rd class of the river, were all so angry that they were about to vomit blood. They were beaten by Yang Fan to only have a pair of shorts left, and they almost burped.
Over the past few days, they have been looking forward to it, hoping that the German and Italian coalition forces could kill the Chinese Expeditionary Force led by Yang Fan, so that this great disaster would be completely killed.
But things went against my wishes. Yang Fan once again turned the tide against the wind, turning the precarious North African battlefield bit by bit, and completely changed the situation on the North African battlefield today.
Thinking that even the powerful German chariot that was invincible in the world was defeated by Yang Fan, Okamura Yasuji, Kawabian Masazo and others all felt a sense of fear and powerlessness.
After a while, Okamura Yasuji gritted his teeth and said, "The Chinese army is getting stronger at an unprecedented speed. The Japanese Empire can no longer raise tigers. It must concentrate its efforts to resolve the China Incident."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Okamura Yasuji shook his head, because what he said just now was completely nonsense. It was not that the Japanese government did not want to give priority to solving the "China Incident", but that it was not able to solve it completely.
Everyone knows that the National Government declared war on Japan after the Japanese army launched the Pacific War and joined the Allied camp.
Japan did not declare war on China until the end of World War II.
The war was not declared at the beginning because Japan lacked resources, and a large number of materials such as oil, steel, machinery and equipment were heavily dependent on imports. If war was declared on China, it would be subject to international sanctions and would be unable to continue to support the war overseas.
But the war has not been declared on China until now, because after the War of Resistance entered a strategic stalemate, Japan began to change its strategy and alleviate its dilemma in China by supporting the Wang Puppet regime.
The Japanese identified the Wang Puppet regime as the only legal government in China and established "diplomatic relations" with it.
Japan does not recognize Chiang Kai-shek's National Government's representative to China, so there is naturally no need to declare war on the National Government. Therefore, the war against China is collectively called the "China Incident".
Not only Okamura Yasuji and others were anxious and unable to sit still, but after hearing the news, Japanese Emperor Hirohito was also shocked and sweated in a cold sweat, and quickly summoned a group of military and political officials to hold a meeting to discuss.
Hirohito has always had a small plan and has always adopted the strategy of sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. He most hopes that when the German allies will fight with the Allies, the Japanese Empire can take advantage of this.
But there is a prerequisite here, that is, the Allied camp must die very ugly, and it is definitely not that the Allied forces will win a great victory and have a full advantage, especially the Chinese anti-Japanese armed forces must not have a good life!
The fact is exactly the opposite. Now that the Allies on the North African battlefield have won a great victory, the Chinese Expeditionary Force has shined again.
During the battle of the Eastern Front in Europe, the Soviet army rekindled and showed extremely strong resilience. The German army was forced to fall into a protracted war of attrition.
On the Pacific battlefield, the Americans began to get ready and gradually had the ability to counterattack.
The power balance between the Axis and Allies is changing, and it seems that the reversal is about to occur!
Combining these factors, Hirohito suddenly felt extremely urgency, and he was really afraid that the Allies, especially the Chinese Tiger Army, which was close at hand, would become an invincible force.
Although the Japanese government has long decided to concentrate all efforts to resolve the "Huaxia Incident" and has transferred 600,000 Myanmar sent troops to China to participate in the war, Hirohito suddenly felt that it was not enough and he needed to further increase his weight!
"You guys, I believe everyone already knows what happened on the North African battlefield, so I won't give more explanations!"
After everyone arrived, Hirohito went straight to the point and said, "Even the powerful German allies failed because of the joining of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. I really want to know what everyone thinks about this matter?
What kind of enlightenment and lessons can the Great Japanese Empire get from it? How should we deal with the current war situation?"
"His Majesty!"
Tojo pondered for a moment and spoke first, "I am very clear about all aspects of the battlefield in North Africa. Judging from the results of the war alone, it is indeed very surprising and even very unpredictable.
But after careful consideration, it is actually not terrible. The Germans lost a lot. If they didn’t make a fatal mistake at the beginning, they would definitely lose the Allies, not the Germans!”
