Since the outbreak of World War II, with the expansion of Fuso in East Asia and the South Pacific, the contradictions between Meinia and Fuso have become increasingly acute, and the oil issue has also become prominent with the intensification of contradictions between the two countries.

After the outbreak of the war, Fuso faced a more serious oil problem than the German army. Fuso has almost no oil in its own country, and it does not have a large number of synthetic fuel plants like the German army, so all oil has to be purchased from abroad.

As an island nation, it cannot rely on land to transport oil, it has to rely on oil tankers to transport oil to its country through the Pacific Ocean. With this mode of transportation, it is easy for people to cut off the sea oil transportation line and deal a fatal blow to Fuso.

After visiting this time and space, Hu Biao finally understood why Fusang would launch a sneak attack on Menia, a neutral country, in the end. The reason is simple, they want to lift the noose that Menia put around his neck, and the consequences will only be worse if he does not fight.

As the Japanese army went to war everywhere, the Fuso government, which had already embarked on the point of no return to war, had no way to retreat at all. After the Meinia began to negotiate a sanctions embargo on Fuso, the Fuso government realized that it had to lift the shackles.

The Japanese army soon set its sights on the oil resources of the South Seas, which had been exploited in large quantities. If you want to occupy the South Seas, you must fight against Menia. Adhering to the principle of striking first first, the Japanese army finally secretly planned a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor.

Knowing that the general trend of history should not change much, Hu Biao accelerated the expansion of his troops while quietly paying attention to the military movements of the Japanese army. For Nanyang, Hu Biao has a heart but is unable to control it, so it is better to wait and see what happens!

As the Allied and German forces fought fiercely, Menia finally decided to provide war aid to England. As president, Roosevelt soon made a public speech, calling on the people to mobilize all forces to support England and other Allied forces.

This approach is hardly any different from declaring war on Germany. As allies of Germany, Fuso and Menia also became potential adversaries and enemies. Coupled with the fact that the oil embargo has begun to be imposed in Menia, Fuso is feeling the pressure.

Without oil, their navy, which has the second largest navy in the world, would be a pile of scrap metal floating on the sea, and none of the warplanes they produce will be able to take to the skies. The urgent need for oil undoubtedly prompted the Japanese army to finally embark on a desperate path.

Fortunately, the Japanese army also knew very well what the consequences of declaring war on Menia would mean. It's just that the Japanese know better that if they don't declare war, they will be even worse. Without the navy and air force, how could they cope with the war of aggression against China with their expanded army alone?

No one expected that the Nationalist Government, which had previously suffered a headache from the signing of the non-aggression pact between the Soviet Union and Japan, would soon receive an olive branch from Menia. For Menia and the Allies, they were also eager to contain more power from the Japanese army.

During this period, Hu Biao paid attention to the changes in the situation, and at the same time, he was also intensively deploying defensive combat strategies. When half a year passed, the troops drawn from all over the south were formed by Hu Biao into the Eighth Division of the Wolf Army.

However, this division was placed by Hu Biao in the border area to assemble and rest, and then transferred to the colony immediately when necessary. Occasionally hiding some strength, in Hu Biao's opinion, is also very necessary, so that others can not figure out the reality.

As the person in charge of external liaison, Brooke was extremely shocked and excited to expand Hu Biao's four main divisions within half a year. In his opinion, the stronger Hu Biao's strength, the more beneficial it will be for him!

Taking the opportunity to return to Zhenning Mansion, Brooke also said directly: "Hu, the War Department sent me a telegram, hoping that I can contact you, can you send a group of aircraft to join your air force?" ”

Faced with such an inquiry, Hu Biao thought for a while and said: "Brooke, I don't want to get too involved in this kind of thing, if you are willing to send a flight army to cooperate with the operation, I can receive a group of pilots, but there should not be many combat opportunities."

I think you can strengthen cooperation with the Nationalist Government, anyway, you already have an aviation school in Chuncheng, as long as you provide a group of fighters and pilots, I believe that the Nationalist Government should be happy to strengthen cooperation with you.

In addition, I don't know if your military has strengthened the collection of relevant intelligence. With the performance of your existing fighters, if you really encounter Fuso's new fighters, I am afraid that you will suffer heavy losses in the air battle! ”

"Are you referring to the Zero fighter that the Fuso just entered service?"

"Yes! The performance of this fighter is very good, if you don't take precautions early, you will suffer a big loss in air combat! ”

"Alas! I had mentioned this to the military a long time ago, but I didn't pay attention to it. For those aircraft manufacturers, developing a new fighter requires a lot of investment. Who would take such a risk in the absence of an order?

I suspect that the military asked me to contact you this time, probably because they also wanted to use your flight unit to fight against Fuso's air force, so as to test the performance of the new Japanese fighters. The generals of the military are all cautious! ”

Hu Biao didn't say much about such an answer. Again, it is okay to receive the volunteer pilots sent by Menia, but these pilots must obey Hu Biao's command. Hu Biao will not give up the dominance of the operation.

On the other hand, on the side of the Nationalist Government, Hu Biao believed that Shancheng would give in, and even wished that Meinia would provide fighters and pilots. In that case, they sit on the wall and watch, no matter how big the loss is, they don't feel distressed.

But in Hu Biao's view, how can this kind of air force unit that relies on others for a long time cultivate and train oneself? When Menia leaves it alone, it will be more difficult for the air force to defend the blue sky in the future, and it will start from scratch again.

After receiving the telegram from Brooke, the general of the Menias side also began to think: "It seems that our friend in the southwest is still very cautious!" It is estimated that it is not easy to get him to stand in front. ”

"It can be seen from the fact that he would rather spend money on weapons and equipment than accept military aid from us, that this person is very difficult to control. But the current situation is that if we want to contain more Fuso troops, we must strengthen cooperation with him.

Based on what we know so far, this person secretly raised at least a regular army of more than 100,000 people in the colony of Indochina. Moreover, these troops are all veteran units with rich experience in jungle warfare and actual combat.

If Fuso launched an attack on Indochina in the later period, it was basically hopeless to count on the colonial army to stop the Japanese army. So in this situation, we have to do more to support this friend. At least, we're working well with each other right now! ”

It is not difficult to hear from the words of these generals that the Meniah military is also wary of Hu Biao. When it comes to national interests, I believe that no one will take it lightly. At this point, Hu Biao also sees it more clearly than anyone else.

Fortunately, in a short period of time, Hu Biao believed that Meunia still needed his assistance. Although the Nationalist government could also help, the Meniya military generals felt that Hu Biao seemed to be more powerful in dealing with the Fusang army.

From what we know so far, Hu Biao has never been defeated in the battle against the Japanese army. On the contrary, the Japanese army was repeatedly defeated in the hands of Hu Biao, not to mention the loss of soldiers, and was beaten by Hu Biao. This kind of ability makes these generals even more important!

As Hu Biao expected, knowing that Hu Biao was unwilling to relinquish operational command, the Meminian military finally chose to cooperate with the Nationalist Government to form a flight unit dominated by Meminian pilots.

Hearing the news, Hu Biao didn't say much. For him, the stationing of this flying unit in Yunnan Province can also reduce the air defense pressure of the wolf army. I believe that it won't be long before the little devils will also notice this newly formed flying unit.

Taking advantage of the fact that all sides seemed to be accumulating strength to deal with the possibility of a new war breaking out at any time, Hu Biao also inspected his military factories again. Seeing the new weapons and equipment being tested, Hu Biao is also full of expectations.

During the meeting with the scientific researchers, Hu Biao also said earnestly: "I am still very satisfied with the progress of your development and testing. But I hope that you will continue to work hard to speed up the testing of these weapons.

As I am sure you all know, equipping our troops with new equipment a day earlier will reduce the pressure on our front-line troops. The power of these new weapons is well known to you. When it comes out, I believe it will also shock the world. ”

"Please rest assured, we guarantee that these new equipment and weapons will be tested in the shortest possible time!"

"That's good! Again, you are experts in scientific research, and I can only do a good job of logistics for you. If there is anything that cannot be solved, you can send me a telegram at any time. The military industry is the foundation of our existence, understand? ”

"Understood!"

With the expansion of the control area and the increase in the number of military scientific research personnel recruited, the research and development of several new weapons conceived by Hu Biao is progressing smoothly. Even though many of them are beginners, they can get a head start on this.

When others discovered that these equipment could exert such great power and effect, the military scientific research team under Hu Biao had already begun to carry out research and development tests of a new generation of equipment, and could still maintain its R&D advantages in this field.

Even if only a few countries such as the United States and the Soviet Union are currently conducting nuclear physics research, Hu Biao is also carrying out relevant secret experiments. In Hu Biao's view, it is also very necessary for the wolf army to master such a killer weapon.

As long as the wolf army can successfully develop the corresponding weapons, anyone who wants to fight the idea of the wolf army must also think twice. In the final analysis, nuclear weapons can play more of a deterrent role, and I believe that there will not be too many countries that really dare to use them in war.

Especially when the opposing side also has this kind of weapon in its hands, I believe that everyone will be afraid of three points. If there is really a super bomb like this dropped on the territory of the country, I believe that no one will feel good. It is also extremely important to reserve relevant R&D technology.

In short, Hu Biao, as a traverser, understands the development process and direction of future weapons better than many people today. Although a lot of things have to accumulate technology, and then break through step by step. But here in Hu Biao, he can avoid a lot of detours!
