"It might be a good idea to hit Kyushu, but have you ever thought about the islands around Kyushu? Those islands are garrisoned by Japanese troops, and if they use planes to intercept your flying group or fleet, the damage will be too great. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info "Chiang Kai-shek's military command ability is not very good, but he is not a complete layman in military affairs, and immediately reminded Zhuo Fei to pay attention to the islands outside Kyushu that were strictly controlled by the Japanese army.

Zhuo Fei chuckled and said, "It's okay, MacArthur's side has almost made sense, when the time comes, the United States and Australia will first implement a complete blockade of the Philippines, and then deploy troops and ships to carry out a full-scale attack on the islands off the coast of Japan." Zhuo Fei marked several locations with a red pen on the map one after another. The Americans could not sit still, they were afraid that the umbrella would steal their limelight, and MacArthur had come to steal the credit, lest they would not gain any benefit from it after they had dealt with the Japanese. ”

Zhuo Fei's words were obviously dissatisfied with the United States, but Chiang Kai-shek did not say anything to stop him, but just pondered silently. "They want to keep us contained." After pondering for a while, Chiang Kai-shek finally understood the key point, and then pointed to the location of Japan on the map and said to Zhuo Fei. "Japan's position is too critical, and if we get rid of Japan, China's access to the Pacific Ocean will be completely opened. The Americans are so anxious to get involved, obviously they want to take advantage of Japan's geographical location to continue to contain China, and perhaps they don't want to see Japan surrender to us at all. ”

Not perhaps, but not at all, Zhuo Fei muttered in his heart, but at the same time he admired Chiang Kai-shek's keen political sense. "Don't worry, don't worry, it's not me boasting, waiting for MacArthur to command his US-Australian coalition forces to solve those islands on the periphery of Japan is simply after the Year of the Monkey, if his US-Australian coalition forces were so powerful, MacArthur would not have lost the Philippines in the first place."

Chiang Kai-shek glanced up at Zhuo Fei when he heard this, in fact, when Zhuo Fei said this, he had already revealed his sinister intentions. Using Sir James to persuade MacArthur to divert his attention from the Philippines to the Japanese mainland, this was simply a trick used by Zhuo Fei to lead the enemy, Zhuo Fei's original intention was to let the United States and Australia first fight with the Japanese mainland army, and then fish in the troubled waters from the umbrella to launch a strong attack on Kyushu Island.

Knowing that Chiang Kai-shek had somewhat seen through his careful thoughts, Zhuo Fei no longer wanted to hide from Chiang Kai-shek, and immediately told Chiang Kai-shek all his ideas and arrangements. "My intention was to take advantage of MacArthur's desire for control, and since he would not return my fleet, let the British persuade him to send troops. As long as MacArthur fights with those islands on the outskirts of Japan, it will inevitably attract the attention of the Japanese army, and we just need to calm down and fish in troubled waters. ”

"The Umbrella is open 24 hours a day at the shipyards in Kuala Lumpur, and the British will support a group of our merchant ships, which will become armed ships ready for war as long as they are refitted as necessary. In addition, we have obtained more than 100 heavy bombers from the British aircraft factory in Australia, and these heavy bombers can also be used as transport planes for airdrop troops, plus the original transport planes of the umbrella, as long as we fly in one formation, we can airdrop more than 6,000 soldiers and the necessary weapons and equipment into Kyushu Island for combat. ”

"Jeju Island is only a thousand kilometers away from Kyushu Island, and our transport planes can easily fly back and forth in one night, which means that as long as we want, it only takes two nights for us to send a 13,000-strong airborne assault division to Kyushu Island with weapons and equipment." The umbrella formed an airborne troops, this matter has always been the top secret of the umbrella, Zhuo Fei said the news at this time, so that Chiang Kai-shek felt depressed for no reason.

"There are 13,000 troops in the Airborne Assault Division, and they only need to occupy a key point on Kyushu Island to defend it, plus our material airdrop as support, which is equivalent to planting a nail in Kyushu Island. The Japanese did not have a large number of troops deployed on Kyushu Island, and once the airborne assault division controlled the coastline suitable for landing, our attack plan would be more than half successful. Zhuo Fei's words caused Chiang Kai-shek to ponder again, and after a while, Chiang Kai-shek promised to cooperate accordingly according to Zhuo Fei's tactical deployment.

Within a week of this secret meeting between Zhuo Fei and Chiang Kai-shek, the reshuffling of forces in China's areas close to the southeastern coast was almost frequent. A large number of troops with battlefield combat experience were assembled and transferred to Burma for recuperation, and they were replaced by some new troops, some of whom were not even fully armed. The Ministry of Military Affairs was very angry about this, and He Yingqin found Chiang Kai-shek many times, but he did not get the answer he wanted.

Such frequent troop movements in China initially attracted the attention of the Japanese cabinet and military, but after some investigation and understanding, the Japanese cabinet and military unanimously believed that the Chinese mobilized troops to help the British fight in North Africa. Sir James was also very cooperative at this time, and a large number of modified troop carriers continued to send the servant troops wearing the uniforms of the national army to the African continent, and the unsuspecting Japanese intelligence officers mistakenly thought that those servant troops were real national troops.

In just one week, Sir James sent more than 400,000 troops to the African continent, but of these 400,000 troops, no more than 40,000 were originally national troops, and the rest were South Asian servant troops recruited by the umbrella. A large number of nationalist troops transferred from the country were disorganized and integrated, and then they were sent to more than a dozen training camps established by the umbrella in the mountains and forests of northern Myanmar for training, while more nationalist soldiers who were not suitable to continue serving in the army were directly dismissed from the military and became one of the many immigrants who went south.

The Nationalist government's apparent reshuffle of troops also attracted the attention of the Chinese communists, who immediately strengthened ties with the Kuomintang and sent personnel into Burma to conduct intelligence investigations. Zhuo Fei had no interest in the civil war, and even less interest in the struggle between political parties, so the CCP intelligence officers who were screened by the umbrella internal security forces were only sent out of the country as a gift, and the umbrella did not use this to blackmail the CCP or flatter the KMT.

"It seems that our little friend is ready to make a big move, in my opinion, let's send a weighty comrade to meet this little friend, after all, our previous cooperation was quite close." ***, who learned of this, immediately made a decision and sent Zhou Enlai to lead a team to Myanmar to try to understand the next move of the umbrella. The protective umbrella fought fiercely with the Kuomintang, but it did not hate the CCP because of this, which gave the CCP great expectations, and if it can pull the umbrella to its side, it may also be a great help to the future development of the CCP.

Zhou Enlai rushed to Myanmar, but learned that Zhuo Fei had already gone to the Umbrella's training camp in northern Myanmar, and continued to ask, but no one told Zhou Enlai the location of the training camp. The training camp where Zhuo Fei went was obviously a secret camp, and Zhou Enlai didn't know that the secret training camp he asked to inquire about was actually the garrison of the Umbrella Airborne Assault Division in northern Burma. In the base of the airborne assault division, because of the arrival of Zhuo Fei, the airborne assault division has entered the stage of combat preparation.

In accordance with the provisions of the operational regulations, the various detachments of the airborne division were receiving military supplies, and Zhou Yuanfei, who was in charge of logistics, was very busy. Although this combat preparation was only a routine training, because Zhuo Fei was personally in charge this time, the top and bottom of the airborne assault division did not dare to slack off, and they had completely regarded this training as an actual battle. The expeditionary force has only been formed for a long time, but this airborne force has been secretly formed as early as the end of 42. The more than 13,000-strong Airborne Troops have been training in Vietnam and have only recently been redeployed to set up camps in northern Myanmar.

Clauser, from Germany, was appointed chief of this airborne unit, and the deputy chief was two officers from the American 101st Division. Sir James originally proposed to appoint the two American officers from the 101st Division as the commanders of the Airborne Assault Corps, but Zhuo Fei still chose Clauser for no other reason, only because Clauser's wife was Jewish, and their family were refugees who had left Germany at the beginning, and it was impossible for Zhuo Fei to hand over the airborne troops he had worked so hard to build to two American active duty officers under the command.

At first, most of Zhuo Fei's understanding of the Airborne Forces came from vague memories in the depths of his memory, but as the Airborne Forces improved step by step, Zhuo Fei discovered that although the technical content of the Airborne Forces was not high, there were many miscellaneous things. According to the regulations of the US Airborne Forces, the soldiers' daily equipment is used for training, and after the announcement of "combat service preparation," they are required to wear another set of new equipment, which includes a paratrooper helmet, a spare pair of combat shoes, and a combat backpack.

The backpack contained a military blanket, a new set of clothes, a nylon raincoat, a pack of cigarettes, a pack of chocolates, two canned meats, two packs of biscuits, and a first aid kit. The first aid kit contains anti-inflammatories, antiseptics, hemostatics, analgesics, anti-diarrhea tablets. In addition to this, the skirmishers carried a paratrooper knife, a shovel, a flashlight, a military kettle, and a base number of ammunition: four grenades, 5o pistol rounds, 2ooo rifle rounds.

If it is a combat need, paratroopers also need to carry other ammunition, such as mines, explosives, machine gun bullets or rocket launcher shells, because paratroopers are different from ordinary infantry, once they are put into the battlefield, it is difficult to ensure logistics supply, the most reliable way is to carry all the necessary things with them. So some people desperately took things, and then carried parachute bags and weapons on their shoulders, and the whole person could hardly stand up.
