Chapter 534: Bloody Battle in Tokyo I
In the waters bordering the Seto Inland Sea and the southeast coast of Japan, hundreds of large and small warships of the Third Fleet of the National Revolutionary Army Navy and more than 2,000 large and small fishing boats and sailing boats collected from the coasts of Taiwan, Ryukyu, Penghu Islands, Fujian, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang are riding the wind and waves.

In the sea and in the air twenty or thirty nautical miles away from them, dozens of Chinese submarines and warplanes provide them with all-round escort cover.
More than 2,000 ships, large and small, carrying more than 100,000 soldiers, were tasked with the sacred mission of storming Tokyo and capturing Emperor Hirohito alive.
In order to be able to transport 100,000 army officers and marines at one time to launch this strategic assault on Tokyo, the Nationalist Government collected almost all the large and small ships on the southeast coast. */w.="">
Thankfully, the owners of these ships and tens of thousands of boatmen learned that their country's army was going to attack Little Japan, and they all volunteered to sign up and volunteer to steer the ships for the Nationalist Army for free, transporting the soldiers to fight Little Japan.
It is very dangerous if a small fishing boat rushes out to sea and crosses the sea.
But now more than 2,000 large and small fishing boats are traveling at the same time, and they are all taking care of each other, although they are all fully loaded, they are also extremely safe.
What's more, there are huge national warships sailing with them outside them, and even if something happens to a single ship, other ships can help in time.
On the side of underwater submarines, about twenty XXI submarines escort them.
In this attack on Japan, more than 280 XXI submarines, except for more than 20 left in the South Pacific, the rest were all used in the Japanese campaign.
Of the remaining 260 ships, 20 were ordered to escort Wang Tiehan's landing force, and the rest were all cruising in the waters northeast of Japan to guard against the Americans' Pacific Fleet.
Due to the almost complete loss of the Japanese navy and air force, the loss of air and sea supremacy, coupled with the strict blockade of the Chinese navy, air force and submarine forces.
So the Japanese were fed up with such a large naval fleet and were advancing in the direction of Tokyo in their coastal waters. I don't know anything about it.
The attention and attention of all Japanese troops and citizens were drawn to the front lines of Honshu and Shikoku, which were engaged in fierce battles with the Chinese army.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Tokyo City, the Imperial Palace of Japan.
Ishihara Wanji and Itagaki Seishiro, two good friends, were reporting the battle situation to Emperor Hirohito with solemn expressions.
"Your Majesty, in the direction of Shikoku Island, the people of Shina have captured the Cape Sayama Peninsula and are advancing towards the Hachimanhama area.
In the direction of Honshu Island, the Imperial Army is fighting bloodily and has successfully blocked the Shina people in Shimonoseki City.
However, the Chinese had absolute superiority in the navy and air force, and they bombed indiscriminately every day, and the imperial army suffered heavy casualties. Itagaki Seishiro lowered his head with a look of guilt on his face.
Emperor Hirohito's face was blue and purple. It's not pretty.
After a long time, he looked at Ishihara and asked:
"Ishihara-kun, will the Americans go to war?"
Ishihara hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, the Americans do not agree to participate in this war between us and the people of China, and they are not willing to shed blood and sacrifice to defend our homeland. ā
When Emperor Hirohito heard this, he immediately gritted his teeth and scolded angrily: "Yagayalu, hateful and despicable American! ā
Ishihara continued: "Your Majesty, Mr. Roosevelt, President of the United States, through his private secretary, has revealed to our ambassador that he himself is willing to fulfill the alliance agreement signed with us.
Now he is citing the protection of American businesses and expatriates in Japan. The Pacific Fleet, which has already ordered the Americans, to go near our waters, and at the first opportunity, he will immediately declare war on the Chinese.
Thus ordering the Pacific Navy Combined Fleet to directly intervene in the war with the combat power of the US Navy.
As long as they go to war. It is absolutely possible to seize air and sea supremacy, as long as they can cut off the connection between the Chinese army that landed on the island and the rear.
Then we will be able to wipe out all the troops that landed on the island in one fell swoop, and it will be absolutely possible to recover Kyushu Island at that time. ā
"Really? What kind of opportunities do Americans need? Is it possible to find a way to create such an opportunity as soon as possible? When Emperor Hirohito heard this, he asked eagerly.
Ishihara said, "Your Majesty." This opportunity is beyond our control and happens, everything depends on the Americans, if they have the heart to provoke. Then there will definitely be a war between the people of China and China. ā
Emperor Hirohito nodded as if he didn't understand, and after instructing Ishihara and Itagaki Seishiro, he drove back to the palace to find his empress.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
On the battleship Huo Quai, Wang Tiehan, the commander-in-chief of the attack on Tokyo, was standing on the deck holding a telescope accompanied by a group of adjutant staff officers, looking at the endless waves and sea.
"Boss, the chairman is calling." A communications staff officer held a telegram in his hand and climbed onto the deck to salute Wang Tiehan.
"Read." Wang Tiehan didn't reply to the order.
The chairman of the committee ordered in a telegram that the success of this attack on Tokyo mainly depends on whether or not troops can be quickly dispatched to surround the entire city of Tokyo and cut off its contact with the outside world after the successful landing on the beach.
Commander Wangwang carefully considered it, and in addition, when your troops launched an attack on Tokyo, I would send two airborne regiments to assist you in encircling Tokyo and blocking the Japanese reinforcements that might be bound for Tokyo.
The Battle of Tokyo is related to the overall strategic situation, and it is related to the life and death of millions of soldiers of the National Army, and I hope that the 100,000 soldiers who will go out this time will be determined to fight to the death, win glory for the country, be loyal to the nation, and strive to take the city of Tokyo in one fell swoop and capture Emperor Hirohito alive! Long live the Chinese nation! Long live the heroic Chinese soldiers! ā
After Wang Tiehan heard this, he turned around and said to the adjutants and staff officers behind him: "The chairman's telegram order, everyone must have heard it, right?"
I, Wang Tiehan, am a rough man, I won't speak politely and politely like a commissioner, I just say a word, this attack on Tokyo City, we have no way out, if we can't take Tokyo City, everyone can only die in battle.
Therefore, whether to take the city of Tokyo and establish the immortal feat, for the pride of 40,000 people, or to be driven into the sea like ducks by the Japanese to feed the fish, buried in the belly of the fish.
It's all in our thoughts! ā
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent! Fight to the end! Swear to take the city of Tokyo and capture Emperor Hirohito alive! ā
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent! Fight to the end! Swear to take the city of Tokyo and capture Emperor Hirohito alive! ā
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent! Fight to the end! Swear to take the city of Tokyo and capture Emperor Hirohito alive! ā
The adjutant staff officers and the surrounding guards shouted their determination in unison.
Wang Tiehan nodded with satisfaction, took the lead and left the deck, and walked towards the headquarters below.
