"We have sent the fighter assessment back to the battalion, and according to the report submitted by Mitsubishi, it will take at least a month for them to improve the Triplicate. At the same time, during this time, the Empire will step up production of fighters......"

At the time of the Wehrmacht meeting, the Japanese Southern Army was also holding a meeting. Sugiyama had already moved the enemy's front command of the entire Southern Army to Annam-Hanoi.

In order to command the nearest battle. Of course, there is another unspoken reason in his heart, even if the war is not good, it is better to run by himself".

Under the escort of the navy, their own safety is still guaranteed. Anyway, it will not be directly compensated here in Southeast Asia, and let a marshal die in battle, believing that the navy will not dare.

"The battalion demands that we must withstand the Wehrmacht's attack, at least until the Reich's resources and production are fully on track next February. Ensuring the supply of resources in Southeast Asia......"

After a pause, Shigesei Aoki, chief of the general staff of the Southern Army, opened the pieces and said to the generals present: "The first batch of materials has been sent back, and the machinery sent by various companies has also been assembled. But it will take at least a month to produce ......"

"The supplies sent to us by the Empire this time can support us to fight against the two military regions of the Wehrmacht for about three months. And the battalion has promised to send us another 400 fighters next month. At the same time, a batch of experimental anti-tank weapons will be delivered......"

As for the current battle situation, the Japanese generals present were relatively satisfied. The strongest air force unit of the Wehrmacht, has been contained. Meantime. On the ground, although Muzhou lost nearly two wings and two divisions of the Annam National Army.

But after all, he held the third line. The University has already begun to organize three divisions of the Annam National Army, and at the same time, the 20 divisions of the Indian National Army have been prepared for deployment. After seeing Annam and India forming armies, the Thai side also began to ask for the formation of troops to support the Japanese army.

That's a good thing. Sugiyama had no reason to refuse. So the Thai side organized five divisions and prepared to follow the Japanese into battle. Of course, these five divisions are still being formed because of the lack of weapons and insufficient training.

As long as there were no other accidents, the Wehrmacht would not be able to directly break through the Japanese positions for the time being. Fushou, Fu'an, and Bac Giang, including Haiphong and Ha Long, all began to build fortifications on a large scale after learning the lessons of the defeat of the Shanghai Campaign.

At the same time, large-caliber Type 90 240cm long-range guns were also delivered and began to be assembled. This cannon was originally commissioned by Japan in 1926 with the French company Snyider, and was completed and shipped back to Japan in March two years later. This was followed by a shore defense gun that entered service in 1930.

At that time, its position was placed in Tokyo Bay as a defense against enemy warships. But now the Japanese felt that the Wehrmacht had endangered their interests in Annam, and at the same time believed that the chances of an attack on the Gulf of Tonkin were not great.

Thereupon. They delivered the cannon to Annam and began assembling it in Haiphong. In order to increase the firepower of the Japanese army in Annam, and at the same time to stop the offensive of the Wehrmacht.

"How's the construction of the fortifications going?!" This is the issue that Sugiyama Gen is most concerned about now, and the strong offensive capability of the Wehrmacht is a chariot that makes Sugiyama Moto's heart palpitate.

Those fortifications became his last reliance, so he was most concerned.

"Our fortifications are progressing well. And it was thanks to the British prisoners. Chief of the General Staff Shigemato Aoki grinned. "The Annan people are also very hard-working, and they are now in charge of supervising the work of these white-skinned pigs. I believe that no one will be lazy. ”

Sugiyama nodded in approval. The British left the Japanese with 80,000 captives in Gapo, and these captives could do a lot of things. And don't care if they live or die.

The capitals of the British Empire are occupied by their own allies, what can these Britons do?! They may have lived with hope before, but since they heard on the radio that London, the capital of the British Empire, had been occupied by the Germans, these soldiers and even their officers had been turned into walking dead.

Whatever the Japanese tell them to do, they do. There was no resistance, and even some Japanese soldiers pulled them out and beat them after learning about the American segregation bill, but they did not see any reaction.

"Don't worry about how many people will die. The purpose of these white-skinned pigs is to build fortifications for us. "Sugiyama was very proud of these achievements of the Japanese army.

In modern times, it is almost always white people who are fighting Asians. Only I, the Great Sun Empire, can turn these white-skinned pigs into captives. Let them work like walking dead.

"Ladies and gentlemen, during this time, everyone has entered their respective defense zones. Our task is to ensure that the Wehrmacht is not able to cross Hanoi until the Reich is back to productive forces. ”

Sugiyama Mototo, knocking on the table and said, "India's twenty divisions of the National Army, I will let them attack the Wehrmacht in Myitkyina, Taubal and other places." ”

"It will take about a month for Thai divisions to develop combat effectiveness. Now we are able to support our operations only five divisions of the Annam National Army. Saying that, Sugiyama Yuan paused and said, "I will stay in Hanoi as a reserve." The rest of you take it with you to use as a front-line unit......"

"The collection of grain cannot be slackened, and now the empire is running on the supplies we bring back. The most important thing is food. Sugiyama Yuan paused and said, "Fortunately, there is a lot of grain in Annam and Thailand, and the collection must be carried out quickly." This must be done well......"

Sugiyama gave a bunch of orders piecemeal, and these orders included industrial, agricultural, military, and even some personnel appointments and dismissals.

Now the Southern Army is equivalent to the Emperor of the Soil in Southeast Asia, except for the National Defense Army that is still blocked in Muzhou, Myitkyina and not far from Liangshan, the rest is their territory.

"Gentlemen! The future of the empire is in our hands. For the sake of the Empire, for the glory of our soldiers! Please! After giving the order, General Sugiyama stood up and bowed to the Japanese generals.

"Hay! We will live up to the trust of Your Majesty, and we will not live up to the trust of Your Excellency the Commander!! ”

The meeting on the part of the Wehrmacht has been completed, and for the time being, the Wehrmacht will enter a period of recuperation. No war against the Japanese will be waged for a week.

This is also forced by Nai. Without the assistance of the air force, a rash assault on the Japanese positions would only increase casualties. Fortunately, the Third Army Corps of the Southwest Military Region has already transferred another corps to the front.

By the latest week, the artillery, tiger roar, and heavy bombing of the deployed artillery will be enough for the Japanese army to drink a pot. And after Gao Zhihang replenishes the fighters and pilots, he will definitely let the Japanese military law have an advantage in the air.

"What?! Still feel angry?! "When the meeting was over, everyone left. Only Gao Zhihang and Pao Ye were left in the conference room. Gao Zhihang was the first person to come into contact with the Wehrmacht when he was still in the corps.

The gun master also admires this air warrior. Therefore, Master Pao has always been the one who takes Gao Zhihang as his nephew.

"No~ Uncle Cannon, I'm just thinking about when our fighter will come out." Gao Zhihang knew that Master Pao stayed with him to care. He said softly: "Judging from the situation of this battle, the Japanese fighters have improved a lot. From the power of the engine, to the ability to protect against it, but also the caliber of the weapon...... Wait a minute. ”

"If we don't follow up, we're going to lose our advantage." Gao Zhihang said, took a deep breath and said: "If you fall behind, you will be beaten!" We can't afford to lose this battle......"

"Hahaha...... You're smart! Everyone else is stupid?! Pao Ye was very satisfied with the vision of the former commander-in-chief of the Air Force, who was favored by himself and selected by Chen Haihua as his successor.

"Don't worry! These questions you think about, the commander-in-chief and Chief Engineer Jia have taken them into account! Just put your heart back in your stomach, it's not a problem. Pao Ye paused and said mysteriously: "What we are developing is a good thing." Wait! Brat! ”

Although Gao Zhihang did not get the complete news, it was enough to know that the Wehrmacht had begun to take countermeasures against the Japanese army.

"Hmm...... You didn't send fighter planes to rob the Japanese during this time, and that's right. "Master Pao first affirmed Gao Zhihang's tactical arrangements during this time.

Since occupying the two positions of the Japanese army on the Muzhou front, the Wehrmacht has never sent warplanes to the front line to assist in the operation. Even the ground forces, after a tentative offensive, died down.

Coincidentally, it seems that the Japanese suffered too many losses last time, so they did not send their air force to fight at the front. Even the ground forces are on the defensive.

The 52nd Division does not attack, and they do not counterattack. That's how everyone is doing.

"But don't be idle during this time, pick some good seedlings in the army. Let's see if we can train some pilots. Pao Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "Our air force is still too small." ”

"Uncle Pao, this pilot is not cultivated just by training! It takes time, and it takes systematic learning......" Gao Zhihang couldn't cry or laugh, and said to the cannon master: "Even if I pick a good seedling now, this far water can't save the near fire!" ”

"I don't want them to learn formations and tactics, you just see if there is a suitable one. If you have one, you can teach them how to pull up the enemy, shoot and parachute. "Master Pao is also in a hurry, and more than 20 aviation schools have been built by the National Defense Army.

But it takes time to train pilots. And what is most lacking now is time.

"The men in our Wehrmacht, they are all fought in the sea of corpses and blood. And they are all literate, better than the students you recruit outside! You just pick whether there are good seedlings or not, and let your people train them on the spot. It's best to train pilots on the ground! "To be continued......)
