"It's done, sir, Joey's armored division has broken through the Japanese defense line in Lamphun Province, the enemy army has been routed, and the armored division is continuing to move south." The combat staff officer who had just received the first battle report couldn't close his mouth with a smile, but he didn't expect that in less than two days, the armored division commanded by Joey had already broken through the enemy's interception line. Don't look at it as just a small line of defense, but as long as it breaks through, the road for the armored division and follow-up troops to go south has been opened, and the Japanese-Thai alliance can no longer stop the advantage of the armored division in the plains.

Joey has always reported good news and not bad news, and the battle report is not very detailed, but then the battle report sent by the mercenary unit made Zhao Zhi and the other combat staff officers immediately puzzled. Letting Wangchai go back to the Thai royal family to bring a message to claim compensation is simply a trick that Zhao Zhi discussed with everyone, the purpose is to confuse the enemy, and at the same time that Wangchai was put back, the armored division that confronted the Japanese-Thai coalition army also immediately retreated 5 miles, all of which was to make the enemy think that Thunder entered Thailand for the sake of profit.

Of course, the Thais and the Japanese are not so easy to coax, Joey's armored division only made such a posture, the Qinglongping commando team that has been renamed the skeleton commando and a sweeping team of more than 500 people have also arrived in Lamphun Province, when the armored division retreated to attract the attention of the enemy, the more than 700 mercenaries who joined the army also quietly took advantage of the night to go around the mountains and forests to the flank of the Japanese and Thai forces, their task was to sneak attack the Japanese artillery positions, and the large-caliber artillery brought by the Japanese army was the enemy of the armored division, Only by knocking them out will Joey's Panzer Division have a chance to break through the mountainous terrain.

After a long night of rapid marching, the mercenary unit had already searched the Japanese artillery positions, and the battle took place at dawn. The Japanese-Thai forces never thought that the Thunder would really retreat, they deployed a lot of anti-tank fire on the defensive line, and dug a lot of anti-tank trenches, but they never expected that they would be subjected to their own artillery fire after the battle began. More than 700 mercenaries, armed to the teeth, easily took the artillery positions that the Japanese army thought were impregnable, and the large-caliber artillery that readjusted the shelling coordinates made the Japanese and Thai troops in the forward position suffer greatly in just one round.

"Attack, attack from the front." Looking at the large clouds of smoke and fireballs rising from the position, Joey was in a good mood, and 12 light stalker armored vehicles were the first to rush out of the attack formation, and the heavy machine guns on the stalker were responsible for suppressing the ground fire of the Japanese army, and then the sappers who followed up used explosives to destroy the anti-tank trenches and fortifications dug by the Japanese army under the cover of tanks. After the explosions of "boom", "boom", "boom", the anti-tank trenches dug by the coalition forces were blown up beyond recognition, and the "attack, attack" Tiger tanks crushed the trenches that were mostly covered with soil and rushed into the coalition positions, bombing the firing points arranged by the coalition forces in the positions into bomb craters one by one.

Breaking through the coalition army's anti-tank position, the armored division that opened the offensive formation smashed into the enemy position as if no one was in a no-man's land, and the dense gunfire rang out, and the coalition forces that were quickly broken through by the armored division used all the weapons and means they could come up with to counterattack, but it was a pity that the large-caliber artillery group that could restrain the armored division had been captured by the mercenaries, and the infantry guns and heavy machine guns on their positions alone could not stop the attack of the armored division. The battle lasted less than an hour, and under the continuous bombardment of large-caliber artillery groups, the coalition forces began to retreat, first the Thai army and then the Japanese, and after the Tiger tanks entered the coalition position, a huge rout inevitably occurred.

"Chase, Tiger Tank went to protect the artillery group, leaving 300 people to clean up the battlefield and collect heavy weapons, and the other squads continued to pursue the enemy." This group of Japanese-Thai troops brought a lot of good things, there were dozens of heavy machine guns and infantry guns alone, how could Joey give these good things to the Jewish troops who followed up. The Light Stalkers were faster than the Japanese trucks, so it was perfect to use them as a striker to pursue the scattered enemy, and the other tanks could follow the enemy army and continue south, and by the time they deployed their forces to intercept the Panzer Division again, it was estimated that the Stalker team would be able to rush to Phra Phu.

In fact, just as Joey expected, the Stalker team that received the order to pursue rushed through the village and through the town until it reached Phra Phu and was intercepted by a large number of Thai troops. If there were covering infantry or tank squads to follow, maybe the Stalker team would have exchanged fire with the Thai army, but now they only have 12 light Stalkers, and the large force of the armored division is still clearing the enemy rout that they let go of on the way, so the Stalker team has to set up a position to block the enemy's rout and retreat.

Infantry can roam the mountains and fields around the fire of the Stalker squad, and those who carry supplies in trucks can only drop their things and flee empty-handed. When the follow-up troops of the armored division and the stalker team converged, the materials intercepted by them were piled up in most of the passage, not to mention the rout of the Japanese-Thai coalition army, and even the armored division itself could not pass. The continuous victory over the enemy army made Joey's mood extremely good, but fortunately he did not lose his mind because of this, the follow-up troops' failure to follow up on time was the Achilles heel of the armored division, after sending a battle report to Zhao Zhi, Joey ordered the armored division to rest in place and wait for the follow-up troops to follow.

"Very good" Regarding the record of the armored division, Zhao Zhi just said two words lightly, the armored division is equipped with the most powerful weapons of the thunder, the armored Tiger tank, the light stalker with a speed faster than the military truck, the heavy stalker rocket artillery vehicle, and the number of British and French tanks, these things are not available in the Japanese army, not to mention that Joey still has the cooperation of more than 700 mercenaries. If it weren't for the purpose of attracting and containing more Japanese troops, Zhao Zhi would not have ordered the armored division to go south to Thailand, and if Joy could not break through the interception position of the Japanese-Thai alliance, then Zhao Zhike would have to consider changing the commander of the armored division.

"Honey, there's news from the United States." Rowling, who hurriedly walked into the headquarters, had joy in her eyes, called Zhao Zhi to the inner room, and handed Zhao Zhi a telegram marked with the word confidential. "Three days ago, the Polish Legion and the French Legion on the Eastern Front confronted the Soviets, and the Soviets took the opportunity to organize more than 20 divisions to put the German 200,000 troops into the encirclement, and the battle is not over yet, but our people said that the Soviet army has a good chance of winning this battle, and when they sent a telegram, the Soviets mobilized 5 divisions to join the battle, and it is estimated that the German army will be defeated."

Hitler's attack and death exposed the long-hidden problems within the German army one by one, and the ownership of military power is the source of these problems, Hitler said when he was alive that for the interests of Germany, all forces in the German army had to listen to him as the party leader, but now that Hitler is gone, Goering is also under house arrest, and Goebbels, the propaganda minister who succeeded Hitler in charge of the Nazi Party, is a little powerless for those generals in the army. If it were not for the support of the SS and SA, Goebbels might not have been able to retain his position as party leader.

The more problems were exposed, the more obvious the conflict of interests in the German army became, as evidenced by the Polish and French rebellions. When Hitler was in power, he listened to Zhao Zhi's opinions, and always trusted the Foreign Legion, and also cared for their families. But now the Foreign Legion is often assigned the most dangerous missions, and their families are not guaranteed to live in the rear, which, combined with the propaganda of the Resistance and the encouragement of American intelligence agents, has contributed to the defection of a large number of the Foreign Legion.

"Grandpa said that the US landing force has been assembled and trained, and once the Philippine battlefield is stabilized, the landing force will set off immediately, and our ships have been leased to the US government for special use to transport US troops to land on the South Asian battlefield, and the new weapons hoarded in Florida will also be transported together." The time when the US troops landed in France has always been Zhao Zhi's greatest concern, and now the Soviet Union's large-scale counteroffensive is a good time, and Zhao Zhi is already planning how to bite the piece of the cake that belongs to the thunder.

Things seem to have returned to the right track of history, the American army landed in France to declare war on the German army, but now there is no Britain as a springboard for the American army, and the famous Normandy in history is destined not to appear. The current landing plan of the United States is that the fleet will depart from the Florida harbor and cross the entire North Atlantic into the Bay of Biscay to land in France, and at the same time, a fleet will enter the English Channel in advance to seek an opportunity to land in Britain to attract the attention of the German army and create an opportunity and time for the fleet to land in France. Zhao Zhi was not very interested in the landing plan made by the US military, the Bay of Biscay did not have the terrain suitable for a large fleet as a landing ground, but it was not his thunderous soldiers who participated in the battle, and Zhao Zhi had nothing to stop.

"Tell old Rhodes that I have people in England and France, and if you need help, the Thunder can lend a hand." When Zhao Zhi helped the German army capture Britain and France, he once supported the Italian gangsters, and when Zhao Zhi evacuated, he left a large part of the supplies to the gangsters. With the help of Zhao Zhi's relationship with the German army, the gangsters who had expressed their allegiance to Zhao Zhi had established a lot of power in the port cities of Britain and France, and if the American army needed Zhao Zhi's help, these Italian gangsters were the best helpers.

Zhao Zhi, who saw off Rowling and looked at the map alone in the inner room, was overjoyed, "Today is really a good weather, and the good news is coming one after another, and the good days of thunder are coming." Zhao Zhi didn't care about the news of the landing of the US troops in Europe, he cared about the timing of the US troops landing in South Asia. Once the U.S. troops landed in South Asia, they were bound to become the great enemies of the Japanese army, and when the U.S. troops and the Japanese army were fighting on a large scale, the opportunity to fish in troubled waters with thunder came. Under the banner of containing the strength of the Japanese army, Zhao Zhineng easily annexed small South Asian countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos. When the U.S. military frees up, Thunder, which has completed the merger of the forces below, will naturally have the strength to share the benefits after the war.
