Chapter 460: Responding to Changes in Japan
"You go straight to the next question, leave me alone." Chen Shao opened his mouth, sat directly on the chair after speaking, and closed his eyes.
"Chen Hong, intelligence content."
"Report to the commander, the intelligence content is: U.S. officials secretly arrived in Tokyo, and today Hideki Tojo received the U.S. representative."
"Call back, content: Always keep an eye on every move of the American representative and the top level of Japan."
This conversation took place in Chen Shao's mind, and in the eyes of others, Chen Shao was just closing his eyes and thinking about the problem. I would never have thought that under the ground where they were, there was another base, a base that belonged to Chen Shao alone.
This information from the spy agency hidden in Japan is very important, and although a lot of energy has been dragged to the Jask base in the past few days, Chen Shao has never relaxed his surveillance of Japan.
Others don't have the strength to be a wallhead, but at this time, Japan is fully qualified to be a wallhead. On the Allied side, as long as Japan has this idea, it will definitely try its best to win it over. After all, in the current world situation, with the accession of China, the allies have gradually been at a disadvantage. Especially now India is under the threat of China at any time, which makes the Allies need a new force to counter China.
And Japan, which has risen, has shown its strength with its fists in the past three years. The Allied forces were defeated and retreated, occupying vast lands. In terms of strength, Japan was already very worthy of the Allies.
Of course, the main thing is that if Japan does not have that idea, the Allies will have nothing to do. But Japan's recent actions are all indicative. A rift is gradually emerging in Sino-Japanese relations. Naturally, the Allies were eyeing Japan like a cat smelling fish.
Not to mention anything in terms of domestic public opinion, in the eyes of the government, as long as it is beneficial to the country, anything can be changed. As long as Japan was able to join the Allied camp, other issues were not important. The means of reversing black and white, in front of politicians, can only be said to be a small means.
Japan's move can be said to be completely unexpected by Chen Shao, and he just wanted to whip little Japan before, but Japan's reaction was too radical. Chen Shao really didn't expect this.
But. Now that things have developed to the way they are, we can only move on. In addition, the role of Japan in China is becoming smaller and smaller, whether to start a war against Japan. Chen Shao didn't think much about this. A little later has the benefit of being a little later. There are also benefits to being a little earlier.
It's just that once Japan is confirmed to join the Allies. That would have too great an impact on the situation around China. The situation in the Far East and the Siberian Plain will be rewritten, and the situation in Southeast Asia will become very delicate.
Thinking of this, Chen Shao opened his eyes. Come back to your senses. At this time, I happened to hear Chen Fuqin's voice.
"......, preparations for an offensive in the Southeast Asian theater have been completed, and it is time to launch an offensive against India."
"Wait." Hearing that he was going to attack India, Chen Shao spoke up: "The plan to attack India has run aground, so let Du Yuming put the main forces behind one by one and slowly concentrate them on the Burma Railway." Then send a telegram to Xue Yue of the Jungle Army, ordering him to immediately assemble his troops and wait for the order to attack. At the same time, Qian Sihai and Luo Rong, the Marine Corps and the Airborne Corps were ordered to be in a state of high combat readiness at all times and be ready to attack at any time. The navy and air force must also be on high alert, especially the front-line alert troops, and they must not let go of any traces. ”
"Your Majesty, is something wrong?" Chen Fuqin asked with some confusion.
According to the original plan, it was to attack India first, and a lot of preparations had been made for this, but Chen Shao's current words undoubtedly interrupted this long-prepared plan. This made the generals in the conference room very puzzled.
Chen Shao got up and nodded, glanced at the generals in the conference room, and said, "Our neighbors are about to move, and we have to guard against it." According to reliable information, the Allied side has sent personnel to secretly arrive in Tokyo, and a new storm is coming. In order to deal with everything that may happen next, the forces of the Southeast Asian theater of operations should not be lightly moved for the time being. ”
"Is it possible that Japan will fall to the Allies? You must know that Japan has choked the Allied forces enough, especially the Pearl Harbor incident, which has not yet been repaired. Wooing Japan, did the Americans agree? Cai Ye said with some puzzlement.
"Nothing is impossible, especially after we declared war on the Allies, and the Allies are having a hard time. Don't apply our thoughts to the ideas of other countries, no matter how many people think that as long as they can cause us trouble, other issues are not important. The starting point of everything is to win this war, which is related to the world pattern in the next 100 years, and no one can afford to lose. Chen Shao was a little emotional, this is the truth he really understood just now.
"As for the United States, I can tell you that the representatives of the Allied forces who went to Tokyo were none other than Americans. When it comes to Pearl Harbor, smart American politicians have their own set. I now seem to have some idea of what the United States will do next. Speaking of this, Chen Shao smiled slightly and continued: "At that time, our China in the white world may become synonymous with the devil." Ha ha!! ”
Everyone in the conference room didn't know what Chen Shao's last sentence was, but judging from the smile on Chen Shao's face, there was no sign of this vitality.
"In that case, do the Germans know?" Jiang Baili said with some doubts.
Chen Shao didn't know this either, and there was no clear explanation in the intelligence, but it was estimated that the German would be very angry about this matter.
"I don't know, but they'll know sooner or later, maybe we can tell this old friend."
"We don't care about the German side, once the matter of small Japan defecting to the Allies appears, then do we have to strike first and take back the land in the northeast first." Chen Fuqin didn't care about Germany, he only cared about what the military would do next.
"There is no need to be anxious about this matter, as long as the three armed services do a good job of alertness, especially our aircraft carrier battle group, we must be careful and careful, and the radar must be turned on 24 hours a day to monitor the movements of the Japanese Navy and Air Force." Chen Shao has not yet thought about whether to strike first, as long as he controls Japan's sea and air forces, then no matter how Japan is jumping, China will not be afraid. I am afraid that Japan's naval and air forces will suddenly attack the Chinese mainland and cause unnecessary casualties.
"I will personally send a telegram to the North Sea Fleet so that their ship groups are always on high alert, and the land-based warning radar along the coast will also monitor the sea and air situation at all times, and will definitely not let Japan take advantage of it." Chen Shaokuan said.
"Also pay attention to the situation around Jeju Island and the Ryukyu Islands, if Japan once it surrenders to the Allies, there is a high probability that these two places will be attacked first, after all, these two places are closest to Japan. In peacetime, it is better, but in the event of war, these two places will become a thorn in the heart of Japan. Chen Shao thought for a while, and then said: "How is the evacuation of overseas Chinese in the United States going?" ”
Everyone felt a little strange about Chen Shao's leapfrog thinking today, and how could he suddenly turn to the evacuation of overseas Chinese in the United States when he talked about Japan just now.
"Since we declared war on the United States, the evacuation of overseas Chinese has been carried out in accordance with the war doctrines established by the Empire. Although several months have passed, there are still many Chinese people staying in the United States. Except for some stubborn ones, the evacuation work will be completed in about a month at the latest. ”
"Don't force those who don't come back, but tell them in detail that if something happens, the empire can't help them. Hopefully they'll think it through. For those Chinese who do not return to China, Chen Shao is not reluctant, and the evacuation is for their safety. He didn't want the Chinese to become laborers in the United States like the Japanese in the United States.
Just now, he just thought that after Japan joined the Allied Powers, Britain and the United States would definitely do everything possible to slander the Chinese Empire, so as to offset the repercussions of winning over Japan at home. In addition, if you are in a belligerent country, the future life of the Chinese in the United States will become very difficult. It's not a leap thinking, but in Chen Shao's view, the lives of Chinese people come first.
"I see."
Half an hour later, the meeting ended. After walking out of the conference room, when Chen Shao learned that Xie Yuxin was in the command center, he also walked directly to the command center. As soon as he walked into the door of the command center, he saw Xie Yuxin, whose eyes were slightly red.
"What's going on?" Chen Shao asked directly to the guards who were following Xie Yuxin.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother just saw the casualty report, and the result... It is the subordinates who are not doing well, please punish Your Majesty. The guard bowed his head and stood right.
"Go down!" Chen Shao didn't intend to blame him, he just sighed in his heart, waved his hand, and let him go down.
"What's going on, Queen Mother?" Jiang Baili and Cai Ye, who followed Chen Shao in, also saw the tears on Xie Yuxin's face, and asked in unison.
"It's okay, you guys go get busy!" Chen Shao replied.
The two of them nodded at the same time, and went about their business with a puzzled expression.
"Come with me!" took Xie Yuxin into the room where he usually rested in the Ministry of Defense, and closed the door. Looking at Xie Yuxin's face, Chen Shao said helplessly: "You really shouldn't come here, it's better to know some things." ”
"In just a few months, there have been 20,000 casualties, and I really don't know how many more people will die in the future, and how many people will have to be in wheelchairs. Brother Shao, I'm really scared, will Yun'er ......?"
Xie Yuxin's very sad words made Chen Shao's heart ache, and when she said Yun'er, Chen Shao directly interrupted her and said, "Yun'er, you don't need to worry, she hasn't entered the combat unit." And I will arrange someone to protect her secretly, there will be no danger. ”
Xie Yuxin was still a little lonely, lying on Chen Shao's chest, and muttered: "I hope everyone can go home safely, although this is very extravagant, but I really hope that there will be fewer deaths." ”
Chen Shao didn't speak, and hugged her tightly. After half a ring, Xie Yuxin said again: "I want to join the condolence group to visit the families of the fallen soldiers. ”
"Alas!" Sighing, Chen Shao nodded. (To be continued.) )
