"Sir, there is a telegram from Chongqing, saying that the Nationalist army is preparing for a counteroffensive in Central China and hopes to get our support." The Thunder organized the Jewish troops to land in Japan for the second time, allowing the Nationalist Government to see the dawn of the early end of the War of Resistance Against Japan. With the strong support of Chiang Kai-shek, the Ministry of Military Affairs finally came up with a counteroffensive battle plan for Central China, but they also needed those Burmese mercenaries arranged in Jiaodong by Thunder to be cannon fodder again to attract the attention of the Japanese puppet army in Central China, so that the troops participating in the war could be interspersed and assembled.

Zhao Zhi was not surprised by the Nationalist Government's assessment of the situation, Chiang Kai-shek was not a good military strategist, but he could be regarded as a politician. Politicians are extremely sensitive to changes in the situation, and if Chiang Kai-shek could not see the situation that Japan is now facing, then he, the chairman of the Nationalist Government, would have worked for nothing for so many years. "Did they say how many troops were sent to counterattack Central China?" Zhao Zhi frowned and asked rhetorically.

Zhao Zhi was not afraid that the Nationalist Government would use the Thunder cannon fodder troops to attract the attention of the Japanese puppet army, but he didn't want those Burmese mercenary troops to be wasted in the flames of war, even if they had to sacrifice those Burmese natives, they would have to pay for it. The intelligence staff officer shook his head at Zhao Zhi, the telegram sent by Chongqing did not mention these contents, it was not so much a coordination telegram as a briefing, as if Chongqing had recognized that Zhao Zhi would definitely agree.

"Promise them that the Nationalist army's counterattack on Central China will also be beneficial to us, at least they can contain a part of the Japanese army, and they can also cut off the passage for the Kwantung Army to continue southward." Zhao Zhi thought for a while, and felt that he still couldn't refuse this proposal of the national government. Thunder's territory in the domestic battlefield is currently only the eastern section of Jiaodong, Yu Dazhi has returned Zhangwu County, including Qinglongping Airport, to the control of the Nationalist Government, and whether it is the U.S. Army or Thunder itself, the Nationalist Army needs the Nationalist Army to contain the Japanese army in the domestic battlefield, and the Nationalist Government only wants the Burmese mercenary troops who have been withdrawn to Jiaodong to rest, and compared with their final plan, those Burmese are nothing at all.

With the Lockman family's ocean-going fleet, Zhao Zhi's Jewish troops and mercenary troops in Jiaodong were being sent to Kyushu Island in a steady stream to occupy Shimonoseki and the entire North Kyushu Bay, and Zhao Zhi had actually turned Kyushu Island into a war fortress for the Thunder Attack on the Japanese mainland. Zhao Zhi's main battle force has exceeded 100,000 people, if the Japanese army wants to drive Zhao Zhi out of Kyushu Island, it can't do it without 200,000 elite troops, not to mention that the U.S. military is also preparing to send ground troops to land on Honshu Island.

The air raid siren suddenly sounded, and the reluctant Zhao Zhi was surrounded by his guards and mercenaries and went down to the underground bunker to avoid the bombing of the Japanese fighters. Unbeknownst to Okamura Ninji, he not only withdrew the Kwantung Army Division that was supposed to deal with Zhao Zhi from Kyushu Island to block the US army, but also transferred a large number of fighters from the Chinese battlefield and North Korea to return to China to help in the war. More than 2,000 Japanese planes of various types fought with the carrier-based aircraft of the U.S. fleet for several days, and by the time the Thunderous Jewish troops successfully landed in Fukagawa, the Japanese army had more than 2,400 warplanes of all kinds on the island of Honshu.

2,400 fighters is definitely not a small number, and if it weren't for Zhao Zhi's earlier order of the Sleeper troops to carry out an attack on the airfield on the Japanese mainland, I am afraid that this number would have doubled. After experiencing a nationwide attack on airports, the Japanese Defense Agency has strengthened its inventory of airports, bridges, arsenals and ports in the territory, and the army has also strengthened its defense forces against these places.

The loss of air superiority did not have much impact on Thunder, because both the Jewish troops and the mercenary troops were very good at fighting at night, and this time they were fighting in Japan, and the Thunder soldiers who were not afraid of accidentally injuring civilians naturally had a lot less scruples. As soon as the guard mercenaries closed the steel door of the underground bunker, the roof of the basement had already begun to fall dust with the shaking of the ground, and the dust was falling more and more, making the staff officers in the basement look grim, it seemed that the Japanese bombardment was not small, but Zhao Zhi's face did not show any expression.

The Japanese air raid lasted for more than ten minutes before it ended, and Zhao Zhi, who returned to the ground, was anxious to know the casualties of the ground troops, in fact, Zhao Zhi's worries were a little redundant, the target of the Japanese bombing was only those ships docked in the port, and their purpose was only to delay the speed of the Thunder troops crossing the sea from Kyushu Island into Honshu Island, and those Thunder mercenaries and materials and equipment hiding under the camouflage net were not their main targets. There were 12 casualties, of which 1 died in the bombing and 11 were injured to varying degrees, and this was the result of the 10-minute bombing by Japanese fighters just now.

After learning that the casualties were only mixed soldiers who had been transferred to the port to help, Zhao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, most of the mercenaries had physical exhaustion and collapse after half a month of continuous combat, and the mercenaries under him who could continue to fight were getting fewer and fewer, and before the 200,000 reserve mercenaries in the training camp arrived on Kyushu Island, Zhao Zhi wanted to ensure that these mercenaries had a chance to survive now.

Wouldn't you be at sea without ships? Of course it is impossible, the ships that were blown up in the harbor by Japanese fighters were all captured by the Japanese army in Thunder, and Zhao Zhi still had a batch of American-style landing craft in his hand. Although the delivery speed of the landing craft is not comparable to that of the big ship, as long as it is transported uninterrupted for two nights, Zhao Zhi can also send all the Thunder mercenaries on Kyushu Island to the opposite Honshu Island. The 20 captured Japanese soldiers have been brought to the port, and Zhao Zhi has a very important thing to hand over to these prisoners to complete, although the prisoners of war are not very reluctant, but this can save their lives.

"I have here a letter to your emperor, and I need you to take this letter to Tokyo and give it to your emperor." Zhao Zhi was holding an envelope in his hand, and the mouth of the envelope was also stamped with a seal. "Do not try to run away or open this letter without permission, for you know how many of your companions are being held in my prisoner-of-war camp, and if I do not hear from the Emperor within five days, I will begin to kill those prisoners of war until your Emperor responds to the letter."

The 20 suspected Japanese prisoners of war were loaded into a military vehicle, and one of them drove the truck out of the Thunder's control zone and toward the Japanese lines. The area west of You has been controlled by Zhao Zhi's Jewish forces, two groups of more than 90,000 Jewish troops that have landed on Honshu Island from Fukagawa Bay, and the vanguard of the Jewish forces has already entered Akiyoshidai, and their next target will be Yamaguchi City.

"It's nothing more than a chance to give the Japanese Imperial Family a chance to save the dignity, and if they can't even seize this opportunity, then when our reserve troops arrive, it will be when we storm Honshu." Faced with the incomprehension of his staff officers, Zhao Zhi seemed a little mysterious. It was the idea of the staff group to write a letter to the royal family, and the European war is now in full swing, and the United States can no longer afford to resist the consumption of two-front operations, not because the materials cannot keep up, but because the supply of troops is seriously insufficient. After fighting with the German army for more than a year, the American army has not yet taken Paris, and the strength of the German army makes it difficult for the American military and government to ride the tiger, and this is a good opportunity for the thunder.

The Rockman family's arms business is booming, and many members of the Congress have been attracted to speak for them, but the Rockman family still lacks military power, so it is a good opportunity for the Thunder to enter the European battlefield as soon as possible. The Rockman family has prepared more than a dozen family children to serve in the army, and can get the help of Thunder, I believe that these family children will be smooth sailing in the army, if the Rockman family can not win enough chips in the European war, it is difficult to guarantee that the Congress will not attack the Lockman family after the war.

It was precisely for these reasons that Zhao Zhicai adopted the advice of the staff group and wrote a letter of persuasion to the Japanese emperor, believing that as long as the Japanese emperor was not a fool, he would be able to see what the situation facing Japan was now. Zhao Zhi himself did not have much hope for the blessing of that letter, he just wanted to use that letter to confuse the Japanese emperor and release a false signal that would be more conducive to the US military to gather their ground forces, because just half an hour ago, Zhao Zhi had just contacted the commander of the US fleet, and the voluntary withdrawal of the US fleet would definitely be regarded as the sincerity of the Japanese imperial family.

Zhao Zhi's Japanese prisoners of war on Kyushu Island include more than 4,000 soldiers of the Fourth Division and the Korean Division, counting the scattered Japanese soldiers, the actual number of Japanese prisoners of war in Zhao Zhi's hands has exceeded 16,000, Zhao Zhi only needs to lie that these prisoners of war ** attacked the guards, and they can be killed logically. The weight of the bargaining chips was not small, and the Japanese emperor or cabinet would not ignore the lives of these prisoners of war, and the thunderous Jewish forces were currently pressing on the interior of Honshu.

"Sir, the shark has sent a telegram saying everything is going well." As soon as Zhao Zhi walked out of the temporary headquarters, he encountered the intelligence staff officer who came in a hurry. Shark is the code name of another lurker attack team, their forward position is in Tokyo Bay, and they also maintain a one-line contact with Zhao Zhi like the Fukagawa team, this attack team of less than 30 people is the strongest team among all the lurker troops, and they also have only one mission like the Fukagawa team, that is, to infiltrate Tokyo Bay and hide as much as possible, once Zhao Zhi launches a follow-up plan to wake them up, the only follow-up task of this team is to contact the lurkers to receive the landing force to attack Tokyo.

"Call back to the shark and dawn in five days." Just a few words seemed to consume too much of Zhao Zhi's strength, and Zhao Zhi, who was a little staggering, waved away all the guards, and came to the beach alone to sit on a reef and look at the sea view. Once this plan is launched, Thunder will really have no way to retreat, and if it does not attack, it is possible that none of these troops that Thunder landed in Japan will survive.
