The Western world took the lead in launching a counterattack in India, and the Chinese [***] team was "defeated" one after another.

Although the Western forces did not take advantage of the offensive and suffered heavy losses from the powerful infantry fire of the Chinese side, the overall situation was that the Western coalition forces were still advancing and "regaining" a large amount of lost territory.

The news of the victory at the front flew like snowflakes to Europe and the United States, sweeping away the decadence of the previous crushing defeat of the entire Western world, and greatly boosting morale. Originally, some small countries that had retreated were only forced by the pressure of public opinion in the entire Western world to send only a small number of troops to participate, but at this moment, because of the continuous "victories" and unleashed bold words, they have mobilized troops one after another to send the main force to the front line on a large scale.

In less than three months, the Chinese National Defense Forces (NDF) had almost completely withdrawn from eastern India and built a relatively solid defensive line along the Tibetan South River (Brahmaputra River) and the Tisda River. This area is actually a narrow strip of land where the Bay of Bengal and the Indochina Peninsula plate meet, and the defense line is built on the natural hazards of large rivers, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Admiral Hagrid, commander-in-chief of the Indian side of the coalition forces, received a great honor and became a man of the year in the entire Western military circles.

However, in the headquarters of the Indian Front of the coalition forces, General Hagrid, the deputy commander of the front army, American General Marshall, and the chief of staff, the famous French general General Xia Fei, were not happy, although this attack had fought with the Chinese side, but almost did not experience too fierce large-scale battles, the Chinese retreated cleanly, not even the bodies of the dead officers and soldiers were left, at least can be buried before retreating, where is the reconquest, it is simply the territory "let out" by the Chinese.

"In my understanding of the Chinese art of war, this is called 'luring the enemy deeper', and its purpose is to lengthen the enemy's logistical supply lines and shorten our own supply lines." Unlike the more optimistic attitude of Western generals, Seishiro Itagaki, who was finally activated by the British, was extremely nervous in the face of such a situation.

In Itagaki Seishiro's view, Li Bufan's mastery, understanding and application of the Chinese art of war are simply superb. Looking at his domestic struggle for hegemony, the use of troops against Yueben, and the southward attack, he has gained the essence of Sun Tzu's art of war: immobility is like a mountain, action is like the wind, aggression is like fire, and movement is like thunder. All Li Bufan's enemies, every battle was quickly defeated by Li Bufan with the momentum of thunder, including Yue Ben, who was completely powerless to fight back under the attack planned by Li Bufan last year.

In a series of wars of the Chinese [***] team, it seems that the national defense force built by Li Bufan is rarely in a defensive position, but Itagaki Seishiro knows that when Li Bufan's East China political axe and Beiyang direct line turned face, Li Bufan sent the number one general Li Songshan to defend the front line of Xuzhou, and withstood the continuous onslaught of Beiyang general Wu Peifu's troops several times, and it was still as stable as Mount Tai. It was this defense that bought Li Bufan time, and Li Bufan personally commanded the troops to pretend to return to the division to quell the rebellion in East China, but in fact ambushed the main force of the pursuing Huguang Beiyang Army, and it can be said that this battle laid the foundation for Li Bufan's unification south of the Yellow River in one fell swoop. This battle won the defense in Sun Tzu's Art of War as "immobile as a mountain"; The march is mysterious and "difficult to know as yin"; The attack was fierce and "moved like thunder", and outflanking the rear of the Hunan army at that time was "aggression like fire". It's a perfect showcase of the art of war.

For example, the Third Route Army not only quickly swept away Siam, but also quickly interspersed and captured southern Burma, forming an outflanking encirclement of the British and Burmese forces, otherwise the British and Burmese troops would not have had to take risks and be annihilated in the end. The speed of its march perfectly demonstrated the essence of Sun Tzu's Art of War, "its speed is like the wind", and its large-scale southward march defeated the British, French and American armies of nearly two million in one fell swoop with less than one million elites, and the thunderous blow has shown the "movement like thunder" to the fullest, and the military parade in Nanjing to welcome Duan Qirui is the perfect embodiment of "its Xu Rulin".

The Chinese [***] team has a commander like Li Bufan, and anyone who understands the Chinese art of war will immediately be afraid before fighting. Since the Warring States Period, Takeda Shingen used part of the Chinese Art of War to summarize the essentials of the military "Wind Forest Volcano" and achieved a series of great victories, since then the military has been madly worshiping the Art of War, which is almost a must-read for generals. Ishihara Waner and Itagaki Seishiro were among them who learned better, and they were praised by the military as a handsome man for a while, and they were well-known in the military circles.

Historically, in the pre-World War II period, China's military comprehensively studied Western military strategy, but was defeated by the Chinese army using the tactics of "Sun Tzu's Art of War". Itagaki Seishiro even used the tactical essentials of "The Art of War" "It is as fast as the wind and moves as thunder" to defeat Yan Xishan's hundreds of thousands of troops with a rapid attack and thunderous strike with half a division. After that, the offensive of the Yue army mostly adopted the essentials of Sun Tzu's art of war "aggression like fire" in addition to the frontal attack, and divided the troops to outflank the [***] rear road, so that [***] morale collapsed, and the continuous rout, and finally China lost half of the country. In later generations, there were many military "brick families" who said how tactics Xiao Yueben invaded China, in fact, it was just a half-hung Sun Tzu's Art of War plus a little bit of Western military, but at the level of Xiao Yueben, it also beat Britain, France and the United States in Southeast Asia to the north, and later Lao Mei insisted on relying on firepower more than ten times stronger than Xiao Yueben to smash Xiao Yueben down.

Seishiro Itagaki and Ishihara have the same opinion, they don't care how many people die from the Western powers, they just want to take revenge and even restore the country through the hands of the Western powers, and they never dreamed that the southern powers of China would be defeated so quickly and so badly.

Seishiro Itagaki believes that it is no longer possible to allow the Western coalition forces to suffer another crushing defeat, and if there is another fiasco, the Western world will most likely lose the courage to fight against China.

"Supplies?" Admiral Hagrid frowned, any qualified general knew the important surname of the supply.

Marshall said solemnly: "Your Excellency, the Chinese and the Indian rebels have colluded, and our logistics and transportation railways have been almost constantly destroyed and paralyzed. Originally, we planned to use traditional transportation and automobile transportation to transport materials to the Ganges, and then use the Ganges shipping to ensure logistics, but the Chinese occupied the Ganges area and almost all the ships were gone. Our logistics have indeed become very difficult, and if the Chinese suddenly concentrate heavy forces at this time and launch a fierce counteroffensive, we will fight very hard. ”

Xia Fei smiled and said: "General Marshall, there is no need to be so subtle, you can directly say that if that happens, we will probably lose miserably again." After a pause, he said to Admiral Hagrid, "This is not the first time we've worked together, old man, and I think we do need to be on guard. After ensuring logistics, it is not too late to attack. ”

Admiral Hagrid nodded, "Okay." We have to mobilize a number of ships from Europe that can sail on the Ganges, and we are afraid that there will be a lot of delays. ”

Itagaki Seishiro said seriously: "I think it is most appropriate to deal with an excellent commander like Li Bufan in the middle of the country, after all, our current air force is still at a disadvantage, and the new aircraft on the coalition side are only the first prototypes, and time is in our favor." In fact, he said this more vaguely, in the face of Li Bufan, a military wizard who is proficient in the Chinese art of war, resourceful as the sea, deceitful as a fox, and fierce as a wolf, these so-called Western generals want to win with tactics, and sooner or later it will become Li Bufan's dim sum, and he will not know how to die.

Itagaki Seishiro believes that the best way for the coalition forces to deal with an enemy like Li Bufan is to fight steadily and steadily, step by step, relying on the strong industrial capacity of the West, concentrating the world's forces and powerful firepower, and pushing the past flat, so that the other side can not use any tricks, and force the other side to fight a decisive battle head-on.

Speaking of the Chinese Air Force, the faces of several generals of the front army were gloomy, since the outbreak of the war, all the officers and men who escaped from the battlefield have been full of fear of China's air force, not only the army, but also the navy. The warships destroyed by Chinese aircraft are enough to form the world's largest superfleet of the century. The Western world is sure to suppress China in many aspects, but China's air force can't do it, the Chinese's aircraft are too advanced, so advanced that they can only look up.

Michelle said suddenly: "Since our counteroffensive, the Chinese Air Force has basically not made large-scale sorties, and even if they do, they are only to cover and guarantee the retreat of their army." Judging from a series of combat examples of the Chinese [***] team, the Chinese Air Force will launch a large-scale bombing and suppression of the opponent's heavy weapons every time it fights, and it seems that there is indeed a conspiracy. ”

"Chinese Air Force"

While the Indian Front of the coalition forces stopped advancing and waited to ensure logistics, the Chinese side was also preparing for the comprehensive creation of a strategic time, place and people, and Li Bufan's plan to build "harmony" was being carried out in an orderly manner.

Throughout Southeast Asia, countless indigenous people from Indochina, Sumatra, Borneo and the Philippine Islands have migrated by ship or ground action, and all military families in China can have a quota to set up a family of relatives to immigrate to Indochina and the first island chain, and these migrant households will be divided into land and housing, of course, military families moving south, that will be doubled the treatment of land sharing.

In the words of Li Bufan and Wu Di, soldiers should be the first to share the national dividends for the expansion of the country's territory. This opportunity is relatively equal, why didn't you sign up for the army when you wanted to have the opportunity to expand the army? If you don't take the lead in giving it to the military and military families, can you still give it to those idle people, [***] elements or those white-eyed wolves? As for those consortia and businessmen who support the political axe, isn't the order of the political axe a kind of dividend?

This is a large-scale migration on an unprecedented scale, but it also has a murderous plan (to be continued). )
