In September, the Japanese army, which had been suspended for a period of time, finally launched a second battle against Hunan Province, which was defended by the Ninth Theater. Compared with the troops raised last time, more troops were dispatched this time, and it seemed that they wanted to capture Xingcheng in Hunan Province in one fell swoop.

After receiving the battle report from the front, Hu Biao didn't feel any surprise. As far as the Japanese are concerned, if they were still worried about the Soviet Union's backtracking. Then at this moment, the Japanese army was completely relieved to send heavy troops to attack Star City again.

The reason is very simple, as long as there are forces from all sides that are concerned about the fighting between the Soviet and German armies, they will also be surprised, and the Soviet army, which seems to be no less powerful than the German army, has been defeated by the German blitzkrieg, and the front-line troops have suffered heavy losses.

In this case, the Soviet army still had the mind to open up another battlefield with the Japanese army, and it was true that the Japanese army would tear up the signed treaty. Fortunately, the Japanese army also knew that a thin camel was bigger than a horse, and it was quite unwise to provoke the Soviet Far Eastern Army at this time.

The Japanese army, which had already begun to plot a surprise attack on Menia, seemed to know that only by quickly resolving the Chinese battlefield could they free up more troops and time to deal with the remaining countries with colonies in Asia and their troops.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this consideration that the Japanese army planned to capture Xingcheng in Hunan Province, the gateway to the mountain city, and open a passage into Sichuan, so as to further force the Nationalist government to surrender or sit at the negotiating table. It was also the intention of the Japanese army to promote talks by fighting.

It's a pity that the other colonial governments are not stupid, and they have already seen that the crazy ambitions of the Japanese army are no different from the German invasion in Europe at the moment. In order to contain more Japanese troops, the colonial governments also increased their military aid to the Nationalist government.

Even the Soviet side, which had planned to cut off supplies, realized that the threat posed by the Japanese army was also not small, and resumed some military aid to the Nationalist Government. For a time, the Nationalist Government, which had retreated from the mountain city, seemed to be highly valued by all parties.

Regarding this sudden change in the international situation, the bigwigs from all parties who asked Hu Biao earlier also sighed: "That kid is still accurate, his grasp and analysis of the international situation does have its own uniqueness, and you can't admire it!" ”

Woe to blessing! These five words have exhausted the mood of many apprehensive people during this time!

Hu Biao didn't pay much attention to this, and received a telegram from the intelligence group stationed in North China that the Japanese army had secretly transferred two divisions from the Kwantung Army and was preparing to send them to the southwest, and Hu Biao also knew that the Japanese army was going to attack the southwest.

After receiving the relevant information, Hu Biao immediately issued an order to the front-line combat units to prepare for combat. The alert troops located on the front line have also begun to increase their patrol vigilance. All Japanese soldiers and civilians who entered the fighting zone were killed and arrested.

Some important military areas in the rear have also begun to carry out comprehensive camouflage, constantly erect and improve air defense early warning systems, and all of them have also started to implement all-day monitoring. Even Hu Biao and the Menia Flying Team in Chuncheng have established an intelligence-sharing mechanism.

is still the same sentence, if the little devil really raises troops to attack, Hu Biao still hopes that the flight team of Meinia will compete with the little devil's combat aircraft group. The flying team under the command of the wolf army is more responsible for vigilance.

After such a long period of repair preparations, if the Japanese army wanted to enter the Indochina colony from Haiphong City, it was afraid that it would be difficult to break through the defensive line deployed by the wolf army with only two elite troops of two divisions, which Hu Biao was very confident about.

Even if the Japanese army transferred the Kwantung Army, which is known as the strongest Fuso Army, Hu Biao is still not false at all. The climate and operational environment in the northeast were very different from those in the southwest, and the rainforest battle would also cause the Japanese army to suffer.

When sending a telegram to the 2nd and 3rd Divisions at the forefront of the defensive front, Hu Biao also said directly: "As long as the Japanese army does not attack from our defense area, then there is no need to pay too much attention to it." Let it suffer a little, and the Japanese army will find a breakthrough! ”

The meaning of this telegram was undoubtedly to tell the commanders of the two divisions to drive the Japanese army to the British colonies. When the Seawolf commando, which was responsible for maritime intelligence monitoring, sent the Japanese air formation into the South China Sea, Hu Biao immediately raised the strategic level.

Together with Brooke in Dagon, Hu Biao also quickly sent a secret telegram: "The storm is coming, please return to the house for a while!" ”

The telegram was just ten words, but it made Brooke feel the tension of the war about to be ignited. At this time, the British colonial army was also nervously deploying corresponding defensive measures, hoping to block the possible attack of the Japanese army.

A previously recruited divisional combat unit was also deployed in a position bordering the colonies of the two countries. In Nuvik's words, it was most appropriate for the troops to be placed in this position. In the event of an accident on the front line, this division can also quickly rush to reinforce or block it.

In fact, this division has always been deployed in the French colonies, and if something really happens to the British colonies, it is basically impossible to rescue them in a short time. And this is also Hu Biao's intention, the purpose is to make foreign devils suffer a little.

Otherwise, when Hu Biao wants to talk to them about the conditions later, they will know what it means to be powerless and can only be slaughtered by others. If the allies invited the Nationalist government to send troops into the country to fight, Hu Biao would not stop him.

Again, at this stage, Hu Biao only wants to protect the Indochina colony, even if he gives up some coastal areas, he can still obtain corresponding strategic materials through the port of Daman, and will not be stifled by the Japanese army.

Moreover, Hu Biao, who had already built several mines in various colonies, was able to ensure that many of his factories needed ore to ensure self-sufficiency. In addition, there is a purchase agreement signed with the owner of the colonial mine, and he really has no shortage of raw materials.

Hu Biao, who returned to Zhenning Mansion to take command of the overall situation, began to pay close attention to the Japanese military intelligence sent by the Shuo Rat Intelligence Group every day. Some of these encrypted emergency information can also make Hu Biao more aware of where the Japanese army has gone.

When the Japanese air formation reappeared near Qiong Island, Louis, who was in Dagon, soon received a secret invitation from Peake, who had been promoted to major general, to prepare him to evacuate at any time. He feared that the Japanese would attack the British colonies.

Looking at Pique, who was secretly visiting, Louis was also very nervous: "Really? How dare Fuso declare war on England? ”

"Why not? Those Fuso people are crazy! Like Hitler, they were war maniacs. On top of that, didn't you see that Vic the White Bear is also pulling out his mercenary troops, ready to pick him up at any time to evacuate? ”

With Pique's persuasion, Louis also had a headache and said: "If we withdraw again, where can we evacuate?" ”

"The Ivan farm, which is already beyond the distance bombed by the Fuso Air Force, should be able to ensure safety. There, we re-established our governing bodies and continued to exercise control over our colonies. And I, too, will stay and continue to fight! ”

After some persuasion by Pique, Louis finally chose to evacuate early. Even so, to the displeasure of the English colonial governors. But for Louis, he also bluntly said that Dagon's side is not safe, and he does not want to take risks easily.

Even before leaving, Louis persuaded the English colonial governor that it would be better to move the colonial administration farther to the rear. Dagon is a bustling place, but it is within the bombing radius of the Japanese Navy and Air Force at any time.

In the face of Louis's kind reminder, the Governor of England smiled bitterly: "Fuso has declared war on you, but they have not declared war on us. Now that the fighting has not broken out, I can't choose to run away, then I will be executed? ”

It is true that Louis, the governor, is currently only on orders from the Franco-Lance government in exile in England. The puppet government, supported by the German army, could no longer command Louis. At the end of the day, Louis is also betting on a chance to survive.

At this stage, the French colony can still operate normally, and it is more maintained by mercenaries recruited by White Bear Vicky. In contrast, the British colonies had a large number of troops, and it was impossible to retreat on all fronts without fighting, right?

As an empire on which the sun never sets, the citizens of England are also extremely proud. As the number one naval power, even if their naval strength in Asia is limited, they will not easily bow to the Japanese army. As a governor, it is impossible for him to collapse without a fight.

With his responsibilities, the governor could not retreat in advance, but he could reserve a way back for his family in advance. After some negotiation, the white bear vicky who was found soon recruited a lot of employment businesses to escort these rich and powerful people to secretly transfer.

For such a hiring task, Bai Xiong Wei also patted his chest angrily and said: "Please rest assured, we have collected your money and will definitely escort people to the rear properly." If the war comes, I'll stay until the end! ”

"Thank you! Vicky, no matter how things change in the future, you will always be our most loyal friend in England! ”

"My pleasure! In fact, my father is grateful for your help, and if it weren't for your trust, my people would still be in exile. On my father's farm, they were all living very freely, and they were very grateful.

If I don't need to pay a commission to my subordinates, I'm willing to provide you with mercenary services free of charge. When your people get there, if they still don't feel safe, you can always ask me again to move them to a safer place. ”

“OK！ If you need it, we will definitely ask you for help again! Also, how is the mercenary recruitment going? ”

To the surprise of the two governors, Nuvic, who had always been full of confidence, smiled bitterly at the moment: "It's getting harder and harder!" As you all know, the Japanese army has recently started a new round of major battles, and many troops over there have participated in the battle.

In order to recruit mercenaries with combat experience, they must be recruited from units that have fought against the Japanese. If the fighting over there is over, maybe I can think of another way to recruit more mercenaries who have retired from the battlefield and have actual combat experience.

Now, if we want to recruit a large number of troops to help us in the battle, we may need to contact the mountain city. In my opinion, if we can't hold it on our side, it will have a big impact on them. After all, we have a common enemy, don't we? ”

Such a suggestion, if the Japanese aircraft carrier formation did not appear, perhaps neither country would consider it. They all knew in their hearts that the occupation of these colonies in the early years had actually had conflicts with the Nationalist Government. Here, in the early years, it was also a subsidiary territory of China.

Now invite the Chinese anti-Japanese troops to come in, who knows if they will come and not leave? If that happens, and they don't have strong support from home, won't that make the situation even worse?
