Chapter 14 Planning
Zhuo Fei shook his head again and again at Chiang Kai-shek's comments and said, "You are wrong this time, I not only want to attack the Japanese mainland this time while taking the opportunity to weaken the number of South Asian natives, but also reduce the number of Japanese native population, especially their males, this is a trick to kill three birds with one stone." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Hearing that Zhuo Fei implicated ordinary Japanese in this battle plan, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't help but be stunned, and then secretly laughed at his own inconsiderateness.
"Telling you this plan, it's not that I have to bring the national army to fight together, but there is a great benefit waiting to be given to you." Zhuo Fei, who chuckled, took out a document again and handed it to Chiang Kai-shek. "This is what we know about the distribution of industrial construction in Japan through various means, and once we start attacking the Japanese mainland, these industrial facilities will be dismantled on the spot as soon as they are controlled, and the national reconstruction is imminent, and I think you will need these industrial facilities very much."
Chiang Kai-shek looked at Zhuo Fei with some puzzlement, and the umbrella gave such a big gift, and Chiang Kai-shek was somewhat puzzled in his heart. "You are always too careful, the industrial facilities of the Japanese are much stronger than those in China, but they are not as good as the equipment of Europe. In addition, we do not have the idea of building a large number of industrial facilities at present, especially if they are left to the Japanese or left in place to be exposed to the sun and rain and become waste, it is better to directly cheapen the country. Zhuo Fei explained happily, and Chiang Kai-shek understood Zhuo Fei's intentions.
"The ambition of the Japanese wolves, only when they are completely hurt and scared, can the aggressiveness hidden in their bones be completely wiped out. Therefore, our umbrella has decided to simply send the Japanese back to the agricultural era this time, and the reason why the umbrella will export a large number of new weapons and equipment to Britain and the United States is that they know how to shut up at a critical time. He had already sensed Chiang Kai-shek's hidden worries, and Zhuo Fei solved Chiang Kai-shek's doubts in a timely manner.
Knowing that Zhuo Fei had already reached some kind of agreement with the United States and Britain, so that the United States and Britain would not drag their feet when the umbrella went all out to attack the Japanese mainland, the big stone in Chiang Kai-shek's heart could be regarded as completely falling to the ground. Zhuo Fei and Chiang Kai-shek chatted for a long time, although there was no detailed specific steps and tactical arrangements for attacking the Japanese mainland, but Chiang Kai-shek had already seen from Zhuo Fei's attitude that the protective umbrella was really going to do something against the Japanese mainland this time.
"At present, more than 700,000 troops have been dispatched to the south, and more than 500,000 have entered Myanmar, and there is still a second echelon on standby in Ruili's training camp. I don't know what the total number of troops you plan to attack will be, but I can guarantee for now that the movement of domestic forces will be prioritized to match the operations of the umbrella, but I want you to assure you that you will be able to take the Japanese mainland. When Chiang Kai-shek said the last sentence, his eyes were firmly on Zhuo Fei, and his face showed a serious look.
"I want you to promise that you will be able to take the Japanese mainland, even if all the troops under our umbrella are exhausted." Zhuo Fei also straightened his face, got up and stood up while solemnly reassuring Chiang Kai-shek. After Chiang Kai-shek heard Zhuo Fei's affirmative answer, he didn't say much at all, so he immediately asked his attendant to send a telegram to Dai Anlan, who was far away in Shenyang, ordering the new First Army commanded by Dai Anlan to change its clothes and cross the Sino-Korean border to the south and rush to the Inchon line, and quietly replace the Dangkou army originally stationed on the Inchon line.
Chiang Kai-shek did not accept Zhuo Fei's retention to stay in Burma for a long time, and after a face-to-face conversation with Zhuo Fei, Chiang Kai-shek returned to Chongqing by military plane the next day. "Boss, we are a mercenary company, there is no war, how can we feed so many mercenaries in our company?" Vivian didn't understand Zhuo Fei's attempt to prevent the civil war from happening, and in Vivian's opinion, only by constantly appearing wars could the Umbrella Company have a chance to grow further.
"No, Vivian, you don't know China, and you don't know the Chinese. Although there are signs of imminent civil war in China, in reality, not many Chinese hope for civil war. Moreover, China's national conditions are not suitable for mercenaries to survive, as long as we firmly control South Asia, which is now under our control, the future of the umbrella will definitely not be bad. "There are some things that Zhuo Fei can't say to Vivian, but Zhuo Fei has never given up influencing Vivian in his own way.
"Okay, you're the boss, and we'll all listen to you." She was already accustomed to acting according to Zhuo Fei's orders, and suddenly hearing Zhuo Fei say such things, Vivian was still a little uncomfortable. Seeing off Chiang Kai-shek, Zhuo Fei also laughed at the idea of returning to the Korean Peninsula, because in a few days, the American and British officer corps headed by Sir James would rush to Burma from Australia.
promised to help the British army to fight in North Africa, the troops were provided by the Chinese government, and the British provided weapons and equipment from the paratroop base for overall rearmament, but Zhuo Fei had no way to solve the problem of the lack of a large number of grassroots officers for a while. The time left for the umbrella was not sufficient, and Zhuo Fei, who had no time to train grassroots officers for the whole training unit, had to ask Sir James for help in Australia.
120 junior officers and sergeants below the rank of major, this is already the result of Sir James's best possible search and call, if Zhuo Fei agrees, Sir James is also ready to bring in a group of naval officers who are idle on the island of Australia to fool Zhuo Fei. Sir James only came to bring 120 junior officers with combat experience, and Zhuo Fei had no choice but to concentrate these 120 borrowed American and British officers in the same unit and serve as junior officers at the battalion company and platoon level.
The reinforcements Sir James had helped to find had arrived, but with them new problems had arisen, and not many of the officers and men from the Nationals could speak English. But these did not stump Zhuo Fei, after recruiting a large number of English translators from Southeast Asia, Zhuo Fei changed the weapons and equipment for the first batch of national officers and soldiers who passed the screening and selection, and ordered them to go north to the Jiaodong area. Zhuo Fei's plan to attack the Japanese mainland was not hidden from Sir James, because in the future, Zhuo Fei also needed Sir James' full assistance.
"Sir, I have obtained authorization from Chongqing, and as long as we need it, Chongqing will continue to transfer troops to Burma, on the premise that we can get the weapons and equipment to equip these troops." On the square table between Zhuo Fei and Sir James, a map was spread, and on the map was Japan pointed by several red arrows. "Before the operation, the troops going to North Africa will set off with great fanfare, and I will order the servants to wear the uniforms of the Chinese army to confuse the Japanese."
"Until then, the Umbrella Army, which was originally deployed on the Korean Peninsula, will be quietly replaced by Chinese New Army troops, who will use the port of Incheon, which is already under our control, to transport the Bandits to Jeju Island at night. The same is true for the expeditionary force and servant army units that go north from Burma to Jiaodong, and they will also use the night to quietly transfer to Jeju Island to stand by. Once you move here and divert the attention of the Japanese, Jeju Island will become a bridgehead for us to attack the Japanese mainland. Zhuo Fei said as he used the red pen in his hand to mark Jeju Island in a red circle.
"Originally, I was going to establish an advance base at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula, but unfortunately it was still in the area controlled by the Japanese army, so I could only place the forward base on Jeju Island, which is relatively close." As the red pen in Zhuo Fei's hand moved, a red arrow appeared from the location of Jeju Island on the map, pointing directly at Kyushu Island. "At that time, our modified bomber group will directly cross the strait and go straight to Kyushu Island, using super bombs to first carry out devastating bombing of Kyushu Island's coastal defense fortifications."
"Jeju Island is less than 1,000 kilometers away from the Japanese island of Kyushu, and the troop transport fleet responsible for transporting ground troops will depart early to launch a landing battle when the bomber group covers the west coast of Kyushu. As long as we can send our troops to Kyushu Island, Kyushu Island, where the Japanese army is relatively weakly defended, will definitely not be able to stop our attack. Zhuo Fei roughly told Sir James about his actions, but in some details, Zhuo Fei brushed them aside.
"Zhuo, what do you need me to do? I don't want to just be sent to get the attention of the Japanese monkeys. After listening to Zhuo Fei's rough explanation, Sir James suddenly found that his task seemed to be dispensable, and Sir James, who was very competitive, couldn't accept it for a while, and then proposed to Zhuo Fei that he wanted to take on a more difficult task.
Zhuo Fei muttered to himself for a while, and pointed his finger at the location of the Philippines on the map, "Here, our temporary fleet is here, and the key to the entire offensive plan is to blockade the battle off the coast of the Japanese mainland." The submarine squadron provided by the US Government has already arrived in Australia, and I am ready to mix the submarine force with our temporary fleet and use the high-speed torpedoes equipped for the submarine force to blockade the seas and ports of the Japanese mainland as much as possible, and in particular, to avoid a sneak attack on our troop transport fleet by Japanese warships. ”
"I don't think General MacArthur will be happy that I've pulled out the temporary fleet, and maybe you can help me convince General MacArthur. If there were no sea forces capable of threatening the Japanese mainland, relying only on our bombers, perhaps the landing operation would not have had a chance of success at all. Sir James, who had been deceived by Zhuo Fei, could not care about other things, patted his chest again and again, and promised Zhuo Fei that he would persuade MacArthur to agree to the departure of the temporary fleet.
"If everything goes in the direction we expected, as long as our ground forces can take Kyushu Island as soon as possible, the Japanese army will be shaken and its combat strength will be unstable. I have prepared more than 500,000 troops, even if I use bombs to smash and fill with human lives, I will also take Kyushu Island. Zhuo Fei waved his fist vigorously, and the red pencil in his hand pierced a hole in the map, which happened to be the location of Kyushu Island.
