Qingdao, Siye General Headquarters.

When Yue Weihan and Jiaogong walked down the gangway to get off the special plane, General Wei Lihuang, General Huang Jie, Zuo Zong, and other senior generals of the four fields were already waiting by the runway.

The Central Military Commission has made a new division of the operational areas of the various field armies.

As of the beginning of April of the Republic of China, General Peng's First Field Army has completed the reorganization again, and after the reorganization, the First Field Army has jurisdiction over 10 group armies, each group army has jurisdiction over 8 motorized infantry divisions, heavy artillery divisions and tank divisions, and each motorized infantry division has jurisdiction over 3 motorized infantry regiments, tank regiments, automobile regiments and 105mm howitzer regiments.

In addition, the field army headquarters is directly under the jurisdiction of the air division, a special operations division and two aviation divisions.

The garrison area of the First Field Army was Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hebei, Hubei, Shandong, and the four eastern provinces, and the combat object was the remnants of the Kwantung Army on the Liaodong Peninsula and in the mountainous areas of North Manchuria.

After the reorganization, the Second Field Army has also completed the reorganization again, and after the reorganization, the Second Field Army has eight group armies under its jurisdiction: "one airborne division, one special operations division, and one aviation division, and the establishment of each group army is basically the same as that of the first field; in fact, the establishment of the four major field armies of the national army and the group army has basically been standardized.

The garrison areas of Erye are Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Taiwan and Guangdong.

At present, Erye has formed a semi-encirclement posture on the Indochina Peninsula, the base camp of the Southern Army, from three aspects: Siam, Guangxi, and Guangdong, and in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Central Military Commission did not order Erye to launch a general attack, but still used a long-term siege as the main strategy.

General Xue's Third Field Army also had a planing under its jurisdiction, a group army, an airborne division, a special operations division, and an aviation division.

Sanye's garrison areas are Sichuan, Xikang, Shaanxi, Gansu, Shanxi, Ningxia, Tibet, Qinghai, Xinjiang, Chahar and Mongolia, and the current combat object is only the Mengsui Front Army of General Yoshio Shinozuka for the time being, and the Mengsui Front Army has 2 chariot divisions, 8 mixed brigades, and a cavalry division with a strength of about 100,000 troops.

However, after annihilating Shinozuka Yoshio's Mengsui Front, Sanye was still obliged to recapture the territories that had historically been ceded to Tsarist Russia by the Manchu government, such as Wulianghai and Yili, although Mao and the Central Committee of the Party did not explicitly state at the Supreme Military Council that "everyone can see that in the near future, Sanye will definitely send troops to Siberia."

After the German invasion and division, Russia has experienced a rather serious decline in national strength, military strength, scientific research, and industrial manufacturing capacity, and is now firmly tied to the German chariot and has been mired in the quagmire of war in the Balkans.

As a matter of fact, Zhukov's Soviet partisans had already launched a counteroffensive in Central Asia and seized the northwestern region of Kazakhstan, and Zhukov had even sent a "telegram of request" to President Mao, asking China to support the Soviet Federation in forming a provisional government in the northwestern part of Kazakhstan to lead the resistance struggle of the whole "Soviet Union."

However, Chairman Mao did not agree to Zhukov's request, because China was not yet able to send troops to help the Soviet Red Army launch a large-scale counteroffensive, and if it rashly supported the Soviet Red Army in forming a provisional government in Kazakhstan, it was likely to lead to a shift in Russia's strategic center of gravity to the east and the transfer of heavy troops from Europe into Central Asia.

Yue Weihan's Fourth Field Army remained unchanged, and it still had eight group armies, an airborne division, a special operations division, an army aviation division, eight aviation divisions, and a naval corps." However, in order to ensure the success of the landing on the Japanese mainland, all 16 infantry divisions under the jurisdiction of the 3rd and 8th Group Armies were converted into heavy infantry divisions.

The main force of each heavy infantry division is considered to be an infantry brigade, an armored brigade and an artillery brigade, of which the infantry brigade has 3 infantry regiments, the armored brigade has 2 armored regiments, and the self-propelled artillery regiment, the artillery brigade has jurisdiction over the anti-aircraft machine gun battalion, the anti-aircraft artillery battalion, the combat defense artillery battalion, the 2 105mm howitzer regiments, and the 155mm howitzer regiment.

In addition, there are engineer regiments, medical regiments, automobile regiments, special operations brigades and communications brigades directly under the division, and the strength of each heavy infantry is as high as 25,000 people!

Regarding the first change of clothes of the 3rd and 8th Group Armies, although several commanders such as Song Xilian, Huo Yuzhang, Dai Anlan, Peng Bisheng, and Gao Shuxun were envious, they had nothing to say.

Liu Yi's 3rd Group Army is not to mention, the expedition to Burma, the surprise attack on Luzon and the landing on Taiwan and the second Battle of Songhu "Every time it was a tough battle, every time it was fought extremely beautifully, and the change of clothes can be said to be what everyone expected" The change of clothes of the 8th Group Army also makes people speechless, because Su Zong fought too beautifully in Jinzhou Bay" Almost all, the strength of a group army forcibly defeated the entire Kwantung Army, such a brilliant record, even the 3rd Group Army is dwarfed.

In the conference room, Yue Weihan's eyes swept away, only to see Bang Gong, General Wei Lihuang, Huang Jie and Zuo Zong on the left and right, and then Song Xilian, Huo Yuzhang, Liu Yi, Dai Anlan, Peng Bisheng, Gao Shuxun, Xu Zong and Su Zong and other commanders of the eight major group armies, but it was General Chen Shaokuan, commander-in-chief of the navy, who was sitting.

"You may be seated." Yue Weihan's hand was under false pressure, and everyone immediately sat down together.

Yue Weihan sat down at this time, and the suburban prince first conveyed the latest instructions of the Central Military Commission, and then Yue Weihan directly cut to the topic, and the commanders of the eight major group armies immediately cheered up, because next, Siye must be counterattacking the Japanese mainland, and the task of this main attack can no longer be robbed by others.

However, Yue Weihan's next words directly poured cold water on the heads of several people.

"You don't have to grab this main task." Yue Weihan said, "This counteroffensive is on the Japanese mainland, and the 3rd and 8th armies are the main attackers, landing from the Miura Peninsula on the left side of Tokyo Bay and the Boso Peninsula on the right. ”

Song Xilian and other six major divisions were a little discouraged, but after thinking about it, they were relieved, the reason why all the motorized infantry divisions of the 3rd and 8th armies were reequipped with heavy infantry divisions was "isn't it just to counterattack the Japanese mainland?" Moreover, with the 3rd and 8th armies taking the lead in the main attack, they also had nothing to say.

Yue Weihan paused, and said: "After Tokyo is won", if Emperor Japan announces unconditional surrender, that is, the war will end, and if Emperor Japan stubbornly resists, then the other six major armies will also land in Tokyo one after another, until the entire island of Honshu is occupied, and the government of Japan announces unconditional surrender! ”

"Damn, it's better to resist to the end!" Yue Weihan's voice fell," Peng Bisheng said viciously, "Lao Tzu hasn't enjoyed it yet, no matter what, we have to let our 5th Army also go to Tokyo for a round, right?" Otherwise, this battle will be too boring," right? ”

"What kind of are you?" , Yue Weihan frowned and said, "If you fight, you have to die, what's the good of a dead man?" What's so bad about ending the war sooner? However, if you want to take the troops to Tokyo for a round, this is very simple, and after the surrender of Japan, I will let your major group armies take turns to garrison Japan, and rotate every three years. "Hey, hey. Peng Bisheng grinned and didn't say anything more, he just complained.

Yue Weihan then said to General Huang Jie, Chief of Staff: "Chief of General Staff Huang, from today's start of the division, the Air Force can begin to carry out large-scale bombing of major ports and industrial cities in Japan, such as Tokyo and Dayuan. ”

"Yes." Huang Jie stood up and saluted again.

Yue Weihan waved his hand and said to General Huang Shaokuan, commander-in-chief of the navy: "Brother Houfu, the navy headquarters must not only strictly block the sea lanes of Japan, but also urge the Yangon Shipyard and Jiangnan Shipyard to speed up the production of transport ships and armed merchant ships. ”

General Chen Shaokuan stood up and said solemnly: "Commander-in-chief, rest assured, the sea route between Japan and the outside world has been completely blocked by our navy." As for the transport ships and armed merchant ships, please give me another three months" After three months, two heavy loader infantry divisions can basically be transported to carry out the beachfront landing! "Okay, then I'll give you three months. Yue Weihan nodded happily and said, "If there is any difficulty, just mention it to the headquarters!" ”

After saying that, Yue Weihan stood up, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and said loudly: "The rest of the group armies must also step up training, and there must not be the slightest relaxation!" The senior generals attending the meeting immediately stood up and agreed with a bang.

『Day』 Tokyo, the Imperial Palace.

Emperor Hirohito was asking Hideki Tojo and Yukishu Anami about the deployment of the plan for a decisive battle on the mainland.

Anan Wei knelt down on the right side of Emperor Hirohito, and introduced with a respectful expression: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the minister has divided the entire Japan into two major military regions, east and west, and set up a general headquarters respectively, each of which has 10 front armies, and each front army has 15 infantry divisions, once the Shina army implements the plan of landing on the imperial mainland, they will face 300 infantry divisions and more than 4 million loyal imperial soldiers!" ”

"4 million?" , Emperor Hirohito frowned and said, "Are there still so many samurai in the Empire?" ”

"Hello." Anan Weiji bowed his head suddenly, and said cheekily, "In order to defend the empire and His Majesty the Emperor, men from seventy to fourteen years old in the Yamato nation can be samurai, and women in the Yamato nation can also become excellent warriors, so it is definitely not a problem to recruit 4 million warriors, and if necessary, even tens of millions of warriors can be recruited!" ”

Emperor Hirohito was silent when he heard this, but he inevitably felt a faint pain in his heart, the sacrifice paid by the empire for this holy war was indeed too great, and it was especially sad that this holy war had completely lost the possibility of victory, and for the current Great Japanese Empire, the best outcome was to hold the homeland and not fall.

There was a long silence in the Changdi Palace, and the three monarchs and ministers were relatively speechless.

Suddenly, a terrible air defense siren sounded outside the main hall, and the Chinese Air Force was finally going to bomb Tokyo!
