In 1939, the Japanese army directly entered the Indochina Peninsula from Guangdong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the Japanese army entered the Indochina Peninsula, there were not many Japanese troops left on the entire continent.

After the withdrawal of the Japanese army, the main body of contradictions in the country will also change.

At this time, the 18th Group Army had completely occupied the two provinces of Hezhibei and Shandong, and the two sides confronted each other with Xuzhou as the boundary.

To Chairman Chiang's astonishment, the 18th Group Army had developed so rapidly that in less than two years it had grown to the armed forces of four field armies, something he never dreamed of.

From the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in 1937 to this year, it has only been two years, and Lao Chiang's sense of crisis has become stronger and stronger.

Fortunately, now that the Japanese army has withdrawn from the mainland, the preconditions for sealing the heavens have expired, and Chairman Chiang has no constraints, and it is time to finally solve the problem.

Chairman Chiang was very confident that the government forces far outnumbered the other side, both in terms of the total number of troops and the size of the territory they occupied, and the balance of victory was still on Chairman Chiang's side.

While preparing for the war, Lao Chiang launched an invitation to negotiate and strive to occupy the commanding heights of public opinion.

For this negotiation between the two of them, Feng Tian is not optimistic at all, and a military contest will eventually be staged.

Feng Tian knows it in his heart, it doesn't mean that others also know it, in this regard, Liu Xiang and Long Yun, who are far away in the rear, have called to ask.

Feng Tian told them that the Armageddon of the Central Plains would break out soon, and they should not have any illusions.

Regarding Feng Tian's conclusion, Liu Xiang and Long Yun both understood in their hearts that it was time for them to make the final decision, and according to Feng Tian's prediction, Lao Jiang was not the ultimate winner.

Of course, the two of them didn't want to join the Eighteenth Army, let alone be an enemy of it, and Fengtian's side was the only way out.

Yan Xishan's joining the Fengtian camp was almost a sure thing, but Fengtian did not let Yan Xishan rush to withdraw, but gradually handed over and slowly transitioned, allowing the Eighteenth Group Army to gradually infiltrate.

Among them, Feng Tian and the other party did not conspire, that is a strange thing!

In this way, Chairman Chiang will be killed.

This is also a matter of no choice, standing on the winning side, that is the wisest choice, Lao Jiang was finally thrown aside by Feng Tian as an outcast.

Feng Tian has been paying close attention to the military movements of the Japanese and Japanese people, and when the Japanese army marches into the Indochina Peninsula, Feng Tian must also make the necessary military arrangements according to the needs of the situation.

In Han, a high-level meeting of the Northland Volunteer Command is underway.

The commander-in-chief Feng Tian issued the latest order: "The role of the Beidi Volunteer Army has changed accordingly, the main task in the past was to resist aggression and defend the country, but now, it is to go out and expand the living space of the Han people and open up the territory." To this end, the Northland Volunteer Army will set up the Indochina Peninsula Theater Command and appoint Wang Tiehan as the commander-in-chief of the Indochina Peninsula Theater. Political Commissar Qu Guangshui, Deputy Commander Feng Zhanhai. ”

"Yes, commander-in-chief, Wang Tiehan resolutely completes the task." Wang Tiehan and the three of them stood up all of a sudden, and they were extremely excited.

Feng Tian waved his hand, asked Wang Tiehan to sit down, and continued: "The Second Army and the Seventh Army are stationed on the peninsula, in addition to integrating the existing forces in the Indochina Peninsula, they must also take on the responsibility of reorganizing the Yunnan Army under Long Yun and the Sichuan Army under Liu Xiang, and prepare for the command to issue an order for a decisive battle. ”

"Wang Tiehan understands, commander-in-chief."

Feng Tian's appetite is indeed not small, this order means that the Northland Volunteers want to control the Indochina Peninsula in their hands, look at all the expressions present, you can know how shocking it is.

However, what was even more shocking was still to come, and Feng Tian once again issued a new order: "In addition to the formation of the Indochina Peninsula Theater, the combat objectives of the Northland Volunteers are also aimed at all the islands in the Pacific Ocean. Political Commissar Cao Minghui, Deputy Commander Navy Commander Chen Lei, Deputy Commander Navy Commander Gao Zhihang, Deputy Political Commissar Chu Xiaoyan, and members of the command are the commanders of all participating units. ”

One word shocked almost everyone, except for Chief of Staff Zhao Zhenfan, most of them couldn't close their mouths with their mouths open.

Prior to this, Feng Tian had already outlined an overview of the Pacific operation to Zhao Zhenfan, and the General Staff was closely following the Pacific war situation and adjusting and formulating an operational strategy.

After a short period of shock, He Lizhong quickly stood up and said, "Report to the commander, He Lizhong resolutely completes the task." ”

After everyone sat down, Feng Tian said: "The Pacific Theater is a joint operation of all arms of the armed forces, and it is also the first time that our army has tried the practice of integrating the tactics of sea, land and air. In future wars, however, there will no longer be the possibility of a single arm of the armed forces, and it will be either an integrated naval and air force or an integrated air and ground operation, and this operation will be an integrated operation of the sea, land, and air forces.

Our army's greatest advantage is that it has advanced weapons that the enemy does not have, and it is necessary to make full use of our army's powerful superiority in electronic technology and communications technology to occupy the commanding heights of war and destroy the enemy. To this end, all branches of the armed forces must fully run in during the period before the war. ”

Yes, this is where Fengtian's confidence lies.

With the continuous application of various technologies, communications technology, radar technology, electronic countermeasure technology, and missiles are gradually installed in the army, and they can completely defy any opponent.

Fengtian was preparing, but the Japanese army did not stop, and the war to attack the Dutch East Indies began.

The Dutch East Indies were the main battlefield for the Japanese army and the British, American and Dutch Netherlands, and the Dutch East Indies were rich in oil, so in order to prevent the Dutch and Indian authorities from destroying the oil facilities, the Japanese army was eager to quickly occupy the Dutch East Indies.

The Dutch army in the East Indies totaled about 10,000 men and had 200 aircraft, but it was scattered over more than 3,000 islands, large and small, and the force was quite scattered. In addition, the Anglo-Dutch combined fleet had limited naval forces, so the defense of the Dutch East Indies was extremely weak.

On November 2, 1939, the Itaguchi detachment of the Japanese 16th Army occupied Balikpapan in southern Borneo. The Eastern Detachment of the 16th Army captured Ambon Island on 3 November and Timor Island on 10 November, thus completing the encirclement of Java from the east.

The 38th Division of the Japanese 16th Army captured Singapore and completed the encirclement of Java from the west. At the same time, a Japanese paratrooper unit occupied Palembang, an oil field in Sumatra.

In this way, the Japanese army formed a situation of encirclement of Java on three sides.

At dawn on November 26, the Japanese Western Route Army, consisting of 56 transport ships, escorted by one aircraft carrier, seven cruisers, and two destroyers, advanced to a distance of only 250 nautical miles from Java; The Japanese Eastern Route Army, consisting of 40 transport ships, escorted by 1 cruiser and 7 destroyers, advanced 200 nautical miles from the eastern tip of Java.

At noon that day, 2 Allied planes discovered the Eastern Route Fleet. The Allied Command ordered Rear Admiral Dorman, commander of the combined Anglo-American-Dutch fleet, to track and pursue the Japanese fleet and wipe out all the Japanese troops.

At 2:30 p.m. on the 27th, Rear Admiral Dorman led 5 cruisers and 10 destroyers to meet the attack. At 3:30 p.m., the two armies met.

The Allied fleet was the first to fire from the Japanese guns. Then the two fleets launched a fierce artillery battle at a distance of 250,000 meters, and the accurate artillery fire of the Allied forces hit the Japanese ships one after another, and the Japanese ships were beaten into puffs of black smoke.

At 6:05 p.m., the Japanese ships secretly fired 43 torpedoes at the Allied fleet, but all of them failed due to the long distance. As a result, the Japanese ships carried out hand-to-hand attacks and rushed towards the Allied ships. Undaunted, Dorman commanded the ships to fight back.

After an hour of fierce fighting, both sides suffered heavy losses. The Allied ships "Cordnal" and "Electra" were sunk, and the "Exeter" was heavily damaged and withdrew from the battle. The Japanese ships "Asahun" and "Fengyun" were heavily damaged. At 6:59 p.m., in order to ensure the safety of the landing force and look forward to the night battle, the Japanese ships took the initiative to withdraw north.

Despite the heavy losses, Dorman did not want to retreat. He began to blindly search for Japanese transports. Unexpectedly, at 10:30 p.m., an Allied destroyer was sunk by its own mines.

At 0:40 on the 28th, the Allied warships discovered the Japanese ships "Nachi" and "Haguro", and the two sides were less than 6,000 meters apart. A few minutes later, the Japanese ship suddenly turned north and fired 12 torpedoes at the Allies from an excellent position of 7,200 meters away and 70 degrees in azimuth. The Allied warships were caught off guard and, in a panic, the cruisers "Rut" and "Java" were torpedoed. The two ships then sank into the black waters of the Java Sea. Major General Dorman, who fought in the north and south, was buried at the bottom of the sea along with 366 officers and soldiers on the flagship.

In the Battle of Java, the Allied fleet sank 2 cruisers, 3 destroyers, and wounded 1; The Japanese lost 5 troop carriers, wounded cruisers, and many destroyers. As a result of this battle, the Allied naval forces that relied on to defend the island of Java gradually collapsed, and it can be said that defeat was assured.

The remaining 10 Allied ships arrived in Jakarta and Surabaya at dawn. The next day, the 4 US ships requested to flee to Australia, which was granted. At about 5 o'clock in the morning, it quietly sailed out of the port of Surabaya and passed safely through the narrow Bali Strait in the dark. That night, the "Perne" and "Huston" left Jakarta and were sunk by Japanese ships on the way to escape. The last British warships, HMS Exeter and two destroyers, attempted to escape through the Sunda Strait in the dark, but were all sunk with the assistance of Japanese dive bombers.

On December 5, the Japanese 16th Army landed in Jakarta and immediately occupied the Strait of Java and Sumatra. On the 9th, the Dutch commander ordered all troops to lay down their arms.

The local radio station in Bandung broadcast the last sad news: we stopped resisting...... See you in the future. Goodbye Queen!
