In order to control those officers who are ambitious and talented and want to be promoted, Chiang Kai-shek also made it public, as long as anyone can encircle and annihilate a division of devils in the future, no matter what rank, no matter what method you use, you will be promoted to general immediately, and it is this article that makes those who originally had something to say obediently shut up, if you dare to say Dai Anlan, people will immediately say that they have the ability to annihilate a division of devils by themselves, and most of the people who pay attention to ideas are figures above the division commander, but they have nothing to say, Dai Anlan's strength is also a division, and it is also a division that is not satisfied, encircling and annihilating a division of devils, no one in the whole of China dares to say that he has a division, or that he will give you a corps of 100,000 people, you dare to pat your chest and say that you can encircle and annihilate a division of devils, no! What is the combat effectiveness of the devil, everyone knows very well, it is definitely not muddy, and everyone can only envy Dai Anlan's good luck.

Dai Anlan was promoted to general, the army was going to be expanded into an army, the original regiment commander was going to be the division commander, the battalion commander was going to be the regiment commander, naturally everyone was going to be promoted, and everyone was smiling, and Wang Hanzhang was directly promoted to colonel staff officer, Dai Anlan thought that no matter whether it was speculation this time or not, no matter what happened in the future, at least this time Wang Hanzhang was indispensable, enough to be qualified for the post of colonel and staff officer. Dai Anlan thinks that Wang Hanzhang's overall view is still very good, and he will stay by his side to cultivate and cultivate, and he will have a lot to do in the future.

Dai Anlan called someone to call Wang Hanzhang over and said: "Hanzhang, this time you did a good job, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to annihilate a division of devils in my life, let alone a battle to eliminate a division of devils." Since the First Sino-Japanese War, he Dai Anlan has set a precedent for the squadron to completely annihilate a division of the Japanese army, and his vanity has been greatly satisfied.

Wang Hanzhang said: "Master's seat...... Oh, no, you are too polite, I just analyzed it, this is not necessarily correct, if the analysis is wrong, it will lead the brothers of the 200th division to hell, so the military seat listened to my advice, and naturally it was decided after combining all the previous things, which requires the military seat to strategize and understand the current situation in order to make the right choice, so the credit is not mine. ”

Dai Anlan said with a smile: "Han Zhang, you are too polite, if it weren't for your words, I'm afraid I would have really gone south, maybe the outcome of the expeditionary force is really like your analysis." ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "Junzuo, everyone is working hard for the Chinese nation not to become a slave to the country, so don't be polite, your credit is your credit, no matter what merit you make, you should be, we soldiers are to protect the family and defend the country." ”

Dai Anlan looked at Wang Hanzhang appreciatively and said: "Very good, with Han Zhang's talent, there will inevitably be greater achievements in the future, Han Zhang, from today onwards, you will be the colonel staff officer of our military department!" ”

"Thank you, Commander!" After being promoted, Wang Hanzhang was naturally happy, the greater his power, the more he could affect the entire war situation, and China's fate might be better.

Wang Hanzhang has also become the fastest person in the history of the Republic of China to be promoted by military merits, a month ago he was a small platoon commander, and today he is a colonel and staff officer of an army, he has been promoted five or six levels in a row, and Wang Hanzhang is naturally happy when he is promoted, the higher his position, the more he can grasp history and rewrite him.

Unlike the jubilation of China and the Allies, Japan was filled with the smell of defeat, which was the biggest defeat since the war was launched, although there were times when it was delayed in advancing half a step in the past and the number of people lost more, but it was the squadron of hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops fighting with the Japanese army of hundreds of thousands, even if 20,000 or 30,000 people were wiped out, it was not a big deal.

But this time is different, the 56th Division is known as the Dragon Division, the winning division, is the trump card of the Japanese army's trump card, this time not only the whole army was wiped out, but also was wiped out by the enemy's division of less than 10,000 people in one day, which is unthinkable at any time, even against the 100,000 American soldiers, it is also impossible, but today they were actually the most despised squadron ** did it, they really can't accept it, but whether you admit it or not, this is an indisputable fact.

As for saying that the squadron uses stratagems and the like, you are not convinced, but those countries in the world only look at the results, and China does not use weapons restricted by international law, so you have nowhere to say anything. Looking at Japan's jokes internationally, people in Japan can't forgive the Japanese army, everyone uses stratagems, does Japan want to declare at home that the squadron is despicable and shameless, and used stratagems to annihilate the 56th Division? What's the difference between that and calling yourself a pig?

At the same time, since the declaration of war on the United States last year, Britain and the United States and other countries have been fighting in the wild, and the Japanese army is invincible in the Pacific, and this time the Dragon Division was completely annihilated, which cast a shadow on the heads of the Japanese troops fighting in the Pacific, and many people have sobered up from their fanaticism, and the Japanese imperial family has further moved the members of the imperial family behind the scenes and no longer appear in the public eye, in order to try not to endanger the imperial family when the war really fails.

Although a considerable part of the Japanese military headquarters was hit hard by the annihilation of the 56th Division, they formulated a more crazy battle plan, and in their opinion, as long as the supply of the squadron was cut off, then China's surrender would not be far off.

Their battle plan included the reorganization of the Burmese Front, and the Southern Burma Army, which had been advancing all the way, was also stopped because of this plan, and they were also worried that the squadron would have any future moves, which gave Wei Lihuang enough time to rectify the defense and military affairs of the front line of Mandalay, and laid a solid foundation for the later Battle of Mandalay.

On the other hand, the Japanese army's battle plan was to wipe out the remnants of the United States in the Pacific Ocean and wait for an opportunity to seize Australia, so that American supplies could only be transported to China through the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, which were too long, and at the same time there were a large number of German submarines in the Atlantic, and after seizing Australia, the Indian Ocean could also be blocked by the navy.

At the beginning of 1942, the Japanese Combined Fleet was still basking in victory. The tasks of the first phase have been overfulfilled, but the tasks of the second phase have not yet been finalized. In Japan's view, although the economic potential of the United States is great, it will take a while to move to wartime regulations, and it is expected that the United States will not be able to organize a counteroffensive until the summer of 1943, and Japan will have time to advance further, expand its occupation, drive the British and American forces out of the western Pacific, and then establish a consolidated defensive circle, of which control of Australia is the most critical step.

The Japanese Army and Navy agreed that Australia would be the largest base from which Britain and the United States would counterattack, but because they were deeply entangled in China, the Japanese Army could not afford to send troops to land in Australia, and the viable option was to cut off its connection with Pearl Harbor.

The defeat in Burma did not affect Japan's established strategy much, and for the behemoth of Japan, that loss was nothing.

The Battle of the Coral Sea, which lasted only a few days, but the previous preparations and various other things were not independent, they were closely related, and the naval battle ended in a great victory for the United States.

The victory or defeat of this naval battle all the more reflects the huge differences between the United States and Japan in terms of strategy, tactics, and national strength, and it is also doomed that Japan, which is fighting on all sides, will not be able to win the war.

This naval battle was the second victory in the Pacific, and the first was naturally the 200th Division encircling and annihilating the 56th Division in Burma, and their strategic victory was of far-reaching significance, which directly affected the course of the subsequent war and had a very great impact on the war between the two countries.

The Burma and Coral Sea victories were also hailed as the beginning of the Allied strategic counteroffensive in Asia, but what happened after that was too shocking and dramatic, so what was it? ――
