Chapter 667: Leaping Horse into Tokyo (1)

Hitler, as the Führer of Germany, committed suicide that greatly contributed to the course of the world anti-fascist war. The victorious end of the Battle of Berlin marked the complete extinction of German fascism and was an important milestone in the process of victory in the anti-fascist war around the world.

In fact, in the final stages of the war, Hitler was still making unrealistic illusions, and he said to the commander of the Berlin garrison, Weidlin, "The situation will improve, our 9th Army is about to arrive in Berlin, and together with the 12th Army, carry out a counter-assault on the enemy, and the Russians will suffer the worst defeat in Berlin." ”

However, Hitler could not have imagined that the German generals had always "reported good news but not bad news" to Hitler, so that Hitler did not understand how bad the situation outside had become, and the 9th Army under the command of General Busch, which had been deployed southeast of Berlin with high hopes from Hitler, had been divided and surrounded by the Soviet army at this time, and could not move towards Berlin. The 12th Army, which was defending the Elbe River southwest of Berlin, was desperately approaching Berlin under the leadership of General Winck, but was finally pinned down by the American army and blocked by the Soviet army, and could no longer advance after advancing to the Filch area. Hitler, who was almost isolated from the rest of the world, stayed in the underground bunker of the Chancellery, not knowing the above situation, but continued to send out wireless telegrams signed by him and dispatch troops. In fact, some generals are no longer so resolute in carrying out his orders.

It was not until the Soviets entered the 9th district of Berlin that Keitel sent a telegram to Berlin telling the truth, acknowledging that the 12th Army could not continue and that the 9th Army could not break out of the encirclement. Hitler's last glimmer of hope was dashed. The commander of the Berlin garrison, Weidlin, proposed to Hitler a plan for the defenders to break through from the capital. And guarantee the "safe evacuation of the head of state from Berlin." He also reported that there was only enough ammunition for 2 days and nights, and that food and medicine were almost exhausted. The Chief of the Army General Staff, General Klebus, supported Weidling's proposal for a breakout, believing that from a military point of view, the plan was possible. However, Hitler realized that he had lost the war he had started and refused to leave Berlin, where he would hold out until the very end of his life.

Subsequently, Hitler announced that he had been waiting for him for twelve years. Braun had a wedding. After the wedding, Hitler dictated his will. Appointing Marshal Dönitz as his successor, he decided to commit suicide and wanted the remains of the couple to be cremated at the Chancellery. At 3:30 p.m. on the 30th, Hitler and his wife, who had only been married for a day, committed suicide by poisoning themselves in their dormitories in the underground bunker. While taking poison, Hitler also raised his gun and pulled the trigger on his temple. Goebbels and others then carried the bodies of Hitler and Eva to a bomb crater in the garden of the Chancellery and doused them with gasoline for cremation.

The most devastating of Germany's surrender was Mussolini and Emperor Hirohito of Japan, whose fate was no different from that of history, and he was still hanged in Piazza Milan. But no one knows where Japan's fate will go, including Han Yunhua.

At this time, the United States had not yet succeeded in developing the atomic bomb, and it would certainly not give the Japanese such a big shock, and the Japanese government at this time was still planning a decisive battle on its own territory and 100 million jade pieces, so no one could guess what the final outcome of Japan would be.

On August 19, Han Yunhua and his entourage returned to Beiping. He also reported the details of the Yalta meeting to the chairman and others, and at the same time put forward a suggestion that the central authorities immediately send a delegation to Outer Mongolia to discuss with the current leaders of Outer Mongolia on matters related to the return of Outer Mongolia.

The chairman and others did not expect that Han Yunhua would be able to take Outer Mongolia out of the mouths of the Soviets, and in addition to being surprised, there was no reason not to agree, and the chairman immediately made a decision and ordered the Government Council to immediately form a delegation to Outer Mongolia.

On August 25, President Roosevelt sent a telegram hoping that China would send troops to participate in the landing on the Japanese mainland, and at the same time demarcate an occupation zone for China. In return. The U.S. military will donate to the Chinese Navy 25 warships of various kinds that captured Japan, including an escort aircraft carrier.

Originally, the central government was not very interested in landing in Japan to fight, because China at this time was in great need of recuperation, and decades of continuous war had already brought down the entire nation and the entire country. But Han Yunhua knew. Japan as a country must fight to the end, and Japan's military-nationalist ideology must be completely eliminated from the roots. Otherwise, there will be a resurgence one day.

Han Yunhua, as the vice chairman of the Military Commission, is also the military general with the largest number of troops under China's command at this time, and his words still carry a lot of weight in the entire Military Commission, Han Yunhua insists on sending troops to fight against Japan, and he also has to station permanent troops in Japan, even if it is an infantry division.

In the end, the central authorities decided that Han Yunhua would take command and select elite troops from all over the country to form the Chinese Expeditionary Group Army, which was divided into three arms: the army, the navy, and the air force, with the largest number of land forces, 280,000 people in 13 infantry divisions of the entire four group armies, and although the air force had only one aviation brigade, it was all composed of B29 Aerial Fortress bombers supported by the United States, and more than 100 ships of various types in the navy.

This is China's largest military cluster in overseas operations, with a total strength of 450,000 troops, in addition to military considerations, the central government has also taken into account the political influence, the damage brought by the Japanese to China is too great, China //.no advertising // people need a vent from the bottom of their hearts, of course, this vent is not a retaliatory vent, but an awakening of national self-esteem. Fighting on Japanese soil does not need to be as brutal as the Japanese treat the Chinese, but fighting on Japanese soil can improve the self-confidence and cohesion of the Chinese people, so this war is imperative.

The formation of the unit was quickly completed, and the chief political commissar of the expeditionary force was Nie Rongzhen, and the chief of staff was Du Yongming. The commanders of the four group armies were Li Dingguo, Li Dayong, Wang Jian, and Xu Shiyou. The troops mainly came from the old foundation of the former Inner Mongolia Military Region, and three infantry divisions were also transferred from Du Yuanming's expeditionary force to be incorporated into the expeditionary force.

On 2 September, 35 troop carriers of the Sino-US joint navy, escorted by dozens of warships, sailed into the port of Shanghai, and the troops boarded the ship and went to the Ryukyu Islands to assemble and stand by. In addition, Han Yunhua also had the task of recovering the sovereignty of the Ryukyu Islands on this expedition. Although the Japanese army on the Ryukyu Islands has been completely wiped out. However, the sovereignty of the entire archipelago is in the hands of the Americans, and Han Yunhua wants to take back the jurisdiction of the islands this time, and in addition, he will establish government departments and armed forces on the archipelago.

The Americans did not have much idea of the strategic position of the Ryukyu Islands, so after receiving a note from Han Yunhua, Roosevelt decided to immediately return the sovereignty of the Ryukyu Islands to China after consulting with the Secretary of State, but hoped that China would temporarily designate the Ryukyu Islands as a military port for the Allies until the end of the war, because the Ryukyu was the most important forward base for the Allies to attack the Japanese mainland.

This request was reasonable, so Han Yunhua agreed to the request of the Allied forces, but demanded that the Allied soldiers only operate within the designated area. Allied soldiers are absolutely not allowed to cause trouble on the island at will, and in particular, it is strictly forbidden to prohibit Allied soldiers from committing crimes on the island. Han Yunhua knows that the American GIs are so good, and there are constant sex scandals everywhere, and it is still necessary to get vaccinated in advance for some things.

In order to completely defeat the Japanese invaders. By 15 September, the Allies had reformulated their plans for landing on the Japanese mainland, codenamed "Tempest".

Landing on the Japanese mainland to fight is also a last resort, in fact, the Allies are now not a few people willing to fight, continuous years of war has caused the world to suffer huge casualties and property losses, many soldiers and officers believe that as long as Japan surrenders, occupy the occupation of the ...
