Tár, who commanded the Southern Advance Corps in Dingfuzhou (New Guinea), had already received orders to prepare to attack Australia, and not only did he fight for many days, but even the millions of Chinese immigrants in northern Australia armed him. As soon as the huge Manchurian main fleet moved south, Taal immediately began his sea-crossing operation to take a continent for Goxinga.

To put it bluntly, several Dominions under the Commonwealth have good combat effectiveness, among which Australia and New Zealand are particularly prominent. Today, warlike New Zealand has become a Chinese-speaking yellow nation, and Australia has become the number one fighting force among the Dominions under the British Commonwealth. If it weren't for Goshinga, Australia's Kangaroo Army would have made the Germans look good in North Africa, and 200,000 Japanese troops would have died in New Guinea. It's a pity that Goxinga disrupted everything, and the Kangaroo Army's fierce record will not appear.

New Guinea, Australia's most important barrier, has become the Dingfu of the Manchurian Empire, and the northern coast of Australia has also become a settlement area for Chinese immigrants, and the almost invincible American aid is no longer possible. The Kangaroo Legion had to have a fair showdown with the Manchurian Army on the mainland. The Australian soldiers, most of the fierce steppe herdsmen, and some brave prisoners punished by the British, they may have been much stronger than many of the Manchurian army of peasants and workers, but they were British dependents, and it was difficult to escape the sorrow of the small island nation after all.

Even without taking into account the Chinese immigrants from the north who were already fully armed, the first wave of the Manchurian Army dispatched 270,000 troops, which was almost a notice of death for Australia. At this time, the total population of white Australians was less than 1.6 million, and the Manchurian Army dispatched one-fifth of their total population. The millions of Chinese immigrants in the north were even more fatal, not only could they provide a large amount of supplies for the Manchurian army, but they could also mobilize more than 200,000 people to assist the Manchurian army in the war at any time. Defeating an army with a third of its population is too difficult for the Australians.

An enemy who is not more numerous than men and has an advantage in strength may not be invincible, but when compared with other aspects, this battle is even more difficult to fight. Europe, a country of small and widowed people, has defeated countless powerful enemies and made them its colonies, and their troops are often in tens of thousands or even thousands. But this is a premise, they are not fighting the natives of the tribal situation, or they have absolute equipment and institutional superiority, and they have never encountered an opponent who is evenly matched. When everyone is about the same, even if Daming is about to die, he can beat them casually. The current level of equipment and training of the Manchurian Army, as well as the organizational structure of the army, are far more advanced than those of the Kangaroo Army. If it does not have the full assistance of the ancestral family, Australia will die this time.

After Tal commanded the Manchurian Army to force a landing in Torres, Australia sent all 50,000 troops that could be organized to meet the enemy. The 270,000-strong army could not be transported ashore in an instant, and the Australian army was only facing an integrated division of the Manchurian Army. But this integrated division has no temper at all when it fights the Kangaroo Army, and the firepower of one of their divisions is actually stronger than the weapons of the whole of Australia. In particular, if multiple arms fight together, the Australian army will not be able to play. Before the battle began, the planes in the sky bombed with life, and Richard, the commander-in-chief of the Australian army, who was holding a telescope to observe the enemy's situation, was killed on the spot. After the battle began, the Australian army was like falling into a burning arsenal, everything around them was exploding, and ninety percent of the Australian troops did not see what the enemy looked like. It was easy to survive until the defeat, thinking that he could escape for his life with peace of mind, and the cavalry of the Manchurian army chased after him again. These cavalry from Mongolia chased the Australian army, which was known as a fierce folk style and a strong ability to survive in the wild, and there was no way to enter the sky, and many people were driven into the desert and no man's land.

After the crushing defeat of the Australian army, the progress of Thal's southern march was not very fast, because Australia was too big. Faced with this place, which is not much smaller than the whole of China, Thal also has to take it step by step, first to absorb and settle the Chinese immigrants in the north, and then to go south to completely solve the Australian self-government. This gives the Australian government a chance, they still have some troops, but if they fight again, they will die, and Australia's only chance of life is to ask for help, hoping that the motherland will not abandon them. This is also in Changchun's arms, Tal has been grinding, in addition to steady and steady, it is Guo Xinga who told him not to be in a hurry, to wait for the British and French expeditionary fleet to come to help.

This was very dangerous, because once the sea control was seized by Britain and France, the back roads and supplies of the Tahr would be cut off, but no one in the Manchurian Empire was worried about this, and their main fleet could not be defeated at all. The so-called main fleet of Manchuria is actually a mixture of the major elite fleets of the Manchurian Navy, including the South Sea Fleet, the Yangtze River Fleet, the Yellow Sea Fleet, the East China Sea Fleet, the Japanese Combined Fleet, the North Sea Fleet, and the Pacific Fleet. Led by the Yamato, there were 16 first-class battleships of more than 50,000 tons, eight second-class battleships of more than 20,000 tons, countless other cruisers and destroyers, and even an eight-submarine formation of 64 submarines. The British and French expeditionary fleets were no match in terms of number, tonnage, firepower, armor, etc., and the performance of the ships was incomparable. Moreover, in addition to the navy, the air force has also assembled more than 370 planes of various types at the three airfields in Dingfuzhou, and there is absolutely no possibility of losing a joint naval and air operation. The only thing the Manchurian army was worried about now was that the British and French expeditionary fleets did not dare to come.

After a long wait of twelve days, the Air Force reconnaissance planes finally brought back good news, and the British and French expeditionary fleet finally left the port of Mumbai and prepared to bypass the Nanhan Islands to reinforce Australia. The entire Manchurian Navy was very excited, and the fighter plane they had been waiting for finally arrived. Goxinga was also very happy, as long as the British and French expeditionary fleets were killed this time, the sea would belong to the Manchurian Navy within ten years, and they would not encounter any more challenges. Unfortunately, the Manchurian Empire, which was too excited, ignored a small piece of information, and the day before the Anglo-French expeditionary fleet left Bombay, ninety-nine warships of the German High Seas Fleet also left their home port.

The navy doesn't care about European affairs, and Bodon, who finally took command in person, just wants to prove himself. Unfortunately, after the British and French expeditionary fleets bypassed the Nanhan Islands, a thick fog suddenly rose on the sea, and the enemy was lost at once. The submarine formation searched several back and forth on the enemy's possible routes, and the destroyer formation also swept several suspicious areas with radar and sonar, but the British and French expeditionary fleets were nowhere to be found, and not even the slightest trace could be found.

"In addition to the submarine formation and destroyer formation, the Japanese Combined Fleet is also out to search for the enemy's traces!" Considering that the destroyer's radar radiation range was limited and might allow the enemy to slip out of his nose, he sent the relatively useless Combined Japanese Fleet to search. Both the Yamato and Musashi have high-powered radars, and their search range is much larger, making it easier to find enemies.

The commander of the Japanese Combined Fleet, Kozo Tsuboi, accepted this order very indifferently. The Japanese Combined Fleet is quite elite, but it has always been discriminated against by its colleagues and has the nickname of the Companion Fleet. He, the commander of the fleet, also had to be under the control of political commissar Xu Chongming, and basically had no autonomy. However, Tsuboi Kozo, who was born in the Choshu Domain, is a person who accepts his fate, and a person like him who was born in the Southwest Strong Domain, can survive until now, and there is still a fleet commander to be the commander, this is the grace of Emperor Heisei, otherwise he is also a seppuku life. So whether he can make meritorious service or not, he doesn't care, no matter how meritorious he is, he can't be promoted to the Manchurian Navy Command, just do whatever the boss tells him to do!

"Your Excellency Commander, we are about to enter the Banda Sea, the hydrological situation here is complicated, can we take a little rest!" Akiyama Shinyuki, who personally formulated this plan to lure the enemy, has been promoted to Nakasa, and has also become the operational staff officer of the fleet, and he is the most popular person at the moment, and everyone is privately discussing that he will be the next commander of the fleet.

"Hmmm! Let's drop anchor! Let's all take a break and continue looking tomorrow! "Anchoring in wartime is to be punished, but Akiyama Shinyuki wants to rest, Xu Chongming also looks approveful, Tsuboi Kozo simply came to take a big break, anyway, they just came out for a walk, and the British and French expeditionary fleets may have gone to South Africa.

"It's night, the commander has nothing to do, let's go talk about it!" Xu Chongming has to seize all the time to educate Pingjing Hangsan, so everyone else is resting, and he has to continue to work.

"The political commissar has this Yaxing, and the three hangers should be accompanied!" Tsuboi Hangzo annoyed this guy who brainwashed himself every day, but he couldn't help it, this is life.

Xu Chongming's chess skills are not good, and the so-called chess is mainly based on chatting, and the two stumble to play Go like a backgammon. But as soon as he arrived in the game, Mayuki Akiyama ran in with a look of urgency.

"Report, Your Excellency Commander, Your Excellency Political Commissar, the radar suddenly found a large number of suspicious targets near the island to the northeast, and it is impossible to determine what they are!" Akiyama Shinyuki let everyone else rest, but he himself has been in the radar room.

"Anchor and prepare for war!" Tsuboi Kozo is depressed, but he doesn't want to die, which is a dangerous signal.

The Yamato, which had advanced performance and was ranked at the top, was the first to complete the maneuver, in order to buy time for the fleet, and at the same time to confirm what was on the opposite side, Tsuboi Kozo ordered the Yamato to move in a northeasterly direction. The radar could only lock onto the target, but it could not tell what the target was, and Tsuboi Kozo was very suspicious that they had encountered the merchant fleet of Nanhan or Lan Fang. At night, the line of sight was not good and foggy, and it was impossible to see the other side clearly, so Tsuboi Kozo ordered the Yamato to get close to the target and asked the other party for his identity with a signal light. But when the distance between the two sides was less than 3,000 meters, the other side suddenly attacked, and the overwhelming artillery fire came towards the Yamato, and the deck of the Yamato was washed in an instant. Dazzling fireworks exploded on the Yamato, and everyone who saw all this thought that the Yamato was finished, and the Yamato, which was hit with hundreds of shells in an instant, was definitely going to explode.

"The Yamato is really resistant to beating!" Tsuboi Kozo in the command tower smiled at the political commissar Xu Chongming, except for the loss of a dozen sailors on the deck, the Yamato was almost nothing.
