Chapter 312: Adding fuel to the fire
As the situation became brighter, Hu Zhiyong was about to pack up the Japanese troops in Maluku Province when he received distress letters from Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. They all know the situation in Myanmar, and they all envy the people there who live in freedom.
"You want me to send troops?" Hu Zhiyong had to go to meet him, and it was the three young men of the Hu family who were named to be met.
"Young Master, let's send troops!" Hou Dashun was so anxious that he wanted to take advantage of the devil's bad luck and secretly kick it from behind!
"No way!" For the three countries with many mountains, many ravines, and many forest belts, he did not have so many troops to deal with the Japanese army. Besides, you must have plenty of benefits to help them drive away the invaders in your own desperate way!
The three countries came from all private organizations of patriots, and Hu Zhiyong was surprised: "Which of you can represent the country?" War is the exchange of steel and life for victory, I don't know what you have! ”
The Cambodian visitor was a young man of 20 years old. He stood up and said excitedly: "Sanshao, I am the Prince of Cambodia, and I can represent my country!" ”
"Sihanoukville!" Hu Zhiyong was excited, this is an old friend of the Chinese people, he didn't expect to be so young and handsome!
"You know me?" Sihanouk was stunned, he had just graduated from school, and was studying at the Sommel Cavalry and Armored School in France, and had only been on the throne for a year after returning home from the war.
"Of course, you're a Cambodian hereditary royal family." Hu Zhiyong smiled: "Tell me your request." ”
"Help me get rid of the islanders!" Sihanouk said resolutely.
Hu Zhiyong hesitated for a moment, he could not answer this question well, because fighting a war is not as simple as talking about it. But he still opened his mouth and said: "You want weapons, Hong Kong has them, can't you form your own army?" ”
Sihanouk said angrily: "The islanders have occupied our land, and I don't even have a place to train troops!" ”
"Hahahaha!" Hu Zhiyong laughed: "Cambodia has a land area of 181035 square kilometers and a population of nearly 10 million. As long as you are sincere in resisting Japan, it is impossible for the little devil to control every inch of your land! ”
"I'd rather take out my family business and savings and let your troops go and be my instructor!" Sihanouk stood up: "We are ready to form an air force, tanks and army, and I have already brought the gold!" ”
Cambodia's mineral deposits mainly include gold, phosphate, precious stones and oil, as well as small amounts of iron and coal. The largest production is forestry, with precious tropical forests such as teak, ironwood, red sandalwood, ebony, and white mao, as well as a variety of bamboos.
Thinking of this, he motioned for Sihanouk to sit down and said kindly, "I can meet your requirements!" If you don't want Cambodia to be at war for many years, you have to build your own direct army! ”
"Okay, this is the amount of gold and the amount of jewelry, please go and ship it back!" Sihanouk was very anxious, and he wished that Hu Zhiyong would send troops over at this moment.
"Hou Dashun!"
"Here!"
"Lead a division of troops, cooperate with the navy and an army of Huang Jinshan in Burma, and quickly attack Phnom Penh!" Hu Zhiyong made up his mind and immediately decided to implement the thunderbolt method.
"Yes!"
Hou Dashun smiled, he was acting together by land, sea and air, although he did not lead so many troops as usual, but he could personally command the navy to participate in the war, this was the first time.
The Cambodian people are gone, leaving the Vietnamese and Thai people. They looked at each other and said embarrassedly: "We are a civil organization, we have no gold and no power. ”
"I can support you with a batch of infantry weapons, and I hope you can build your own territory. Vietnam and Thailand have their own specialties, and they have been developed to exchange for more valuable weapons in my place! ”
Of course, Hu Zhiyong will not send troops in vain. Between countries, there are only eternal interests and no eternal friends. Empty gloves white wolf, he wouldn't be stupid enough to give these people cutting-edge weapons for nothing.
When these people heard that they could support their weapons, they rejoiced: "How many? ”
"The armament given to your two divisions is quite a lot, isn't it?" Hu Zhiyong smiled sweetly: "I hope I can see your abilities!" ”
The South China Sea Navy consists of four missile boats, two destroyers, and a giant industrial ship. Fifteen transport ships, full of tanks and armed men, began to move westward.
The Tianhua Navy suddenly sent troops towards the Gulf of Thailand, which frightened the Japanese army. They watched cautiously, to determine where the men would start. The commander-in-chief of the 18th Front Army of Cambodia and Thailand, Akito Nakamura, and the commander stationed in Cambodia, General Mamoto, have already understood that they are going to attack the small country in the northern part of the South China Sea!
When the Japanese army entered Burma, it declared that they would come to Burma to eliminate the rule of British imperialism, liberate the Burmese people, and establish the 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere'. Therefore, when Tojo declared that "the first anniversary of the Japanese army's expulsion of the British army will be the time when Burma declares independence," the Burmese people cheered and welcomed the invading Japanese army.
Some of the Burmese voluntarily led the way to the British army, some reported the news, some spread anti-British rumors, and some even formed the 'Burmese Independence Army' to fight together with the Japanese army. But in less than two months, the actions of the Japanese army began to be distorted.
First, the Burmese demanded silver coins from the Burmese with worthless Japanese military tickets, and then the Burmese witnessed the Burmese being transported back to their home country in the same way as the Japanese and British troops. It turns out that the heart of the imperialists, whether their skin is white or yellow, is black.
"Baga, their target is Cambodia!" Nakamura Akito saw that the warship was about to dock, and of course he saw where Hou Dashun was going to attack.
"Your Excellency, what shall we do?" General Mamoto is very sad, he only has one brigade in Cambodia, and more than 3,000 people to deal with this tank fast force armed to the teeth can only be moths to the fire!
"Withdraw!" Nakamura Akito had a gloomy face and warned Mamoto: "Restrain your subordinates, don't rob Cambodia anymore." Once we annoy them, our hundreds of thousands of troops in Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos will all be crushed! ”
"Hayi!"
"The Japanese army has withdrawn!"
"The king has returned with a great army!"
"Cambodia is independent!"
Hou Dashun's troops were greeted by bursts of cheers. The mighty tank division marched in formation and drove towards Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. Phnom Penh, a city in the delta between the Mekong River and the Tonle Sap Lake, has long been walled by millions of people for dozens of miles.
The royal palace is a group of buildings surrounded by golden roofs and yellow walls, including more than 20 palaces of all sizes, such as the Zeng Chaya Palace, the Golden Palace, the Silver Palace, the Dance and Music Palace, the Treasure Palace, etc., and the cloister is the relief carving of imitating Angkor Temple.
Zeng Chaya Hall carved beams and painted buildings, glazed tile roof, and the left side of the golden light of the Pole Mo Rokot Stupa echo each other, the scenery is spectacular. There is a treasure hall in the golden hall, which is dedicated to the display of treasures.
Of all the buildings in the palace, the Silver Palace is the most ornate, with more than 4,700 pieces of openwork silver bricks on the floor. The main hall enshrines a Buddha statue carved from a whole piece of jadeite about 60 centimeters high, crystal clear, and is a treasure of Cambodia, so the silver palace is called the green jade temple again. There are also two large and small Buddha statues made of pure gold in the silver palace.
"Thankfully, fortunately!" Sihanouk listened to the old prince's account of the Japanese army's launch, and knew that this place had not been plundered and burned. He wiped his sweat and said to Hou Dashun: "You can let the troops enter the city." ”
"We don't go into town." Hou Dashun smiled slightly: "Prince, you have a lot to do, first arrange the officials from all over the country, hurry up and give me an excellent youth, and I will help you build your own troops." ”
didn't catch the battle, Hou Dashun was still very happy. If it weren't for the mighty navy and sophisticated tank troops, the little devil would never have quit so "modestly"!
Huang Jinshan personally brought two divisions over and met with Hou Dashun at night. Today's 6th Army is really like an elite army, Hou Dashun said with a smile: "Old regiment commander, they are all trained in the mountains?" ”
"Yes!" Huang Jinshan happily: "There are many mountainous areas in Myanmar, and we are training while cracking down on those trouble-making parties. The Burmese army has formed 400,000 troops, and I have reduced the Sixth Army and the 66th Army into four elite divisions and two logistics divisions. ”
"Leave me a division, you can take this division back!" Without a battle, Hou Dashun did not want to leave too many troops behind.
"Okay, that's going to take the pressure off your logistics." Huang Jinshan waved his hand and asked the commander of the first division to come over: "Xiao Wang, you stay." ”
"Yes!" Xiao Wang used to be the captain of Hu Pengsheng's team, and he was very familiar with Hou Dashun.
Seeing off Huang Jinshan and the Second Division, Hou Dashun said to Sihanouk, who came to the country: "The first step we have to do is to build an airfield and a transport terminal. ”
"I've arranged it." Sihanouk was excited, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly. But he knew that these people would not live here forever and that they would have to build up an army of their own.
"Commander Hou, my plan is the same as that of Burma, to raise four or five hundred thousand of my own troops. In addition, I need 3,000 transport cars, 100 off-road jeeps and 10 cars, please calculate the price. ”
Hou Dashun laughed: "You can send a Minister of Commerce to Hong Kong, and Commander Long has the right to do these things!" ”
"Okay, I still need a lot of supplies, so I'll just handle them all in Hong Kong!" Prince Sihanouk nodded excitedly, ready to let his father handle the matter.
"Your Excellency, you must develop your own resources, so that everyone has food, clothing, and housing, and as long as they can live well, there will be no more civil strife! Cambodia has the advantages of cash crops such as rubber, pepper, palm sugar, tobacco, hemp, cotton, etc., and is rich in precious tropical forests such as teak, ironwood, red sandalwood, ebony, and white mao. It's a little better to export in exchange for our supplies than to buy them with gold! ”
Hou Dashun has followed Hu Zhiyong for so many years, of course he understands what he needs. Opening mines and selling equipment is a matter of the future, and what they need to do now is to buy the best things here, so that their business can take a big step forward!
"Don't worry, I will learn from the model of Myanmar, and the workers, peasants, businessmen, and soldiers will carry out practical actions in an all-round way!" Sihanouk choked back tears: "The French and the islanders are here to plunder our resources, only you, use materials to make a fair deal!" ”
"We are neighbors!" Hou Dashun smiled weirdly: "Of course, we are businessmen, and we must do fair trading!" ”
"I envy you guys!" Sihanouk smiled, and he sent fruits and food to Hou Dashun's troops, as well as a large amount of meat and white rice: "Tomorrow, the first batch of recruits will arrive, and those who are not qualified will resolutely do not, I will build a unit like you!" ”
