On 7 April, when the 52nd Regiment of the 53rd Division of the Army was threatening the Portuguese in Macao, the base camp in Beijing was already busy. Today, the squadron's operation in the Nanyang region will begin, and nearly 200,000 troops are ready to go.

"Is everything ready? Have the units reached their assigned positions? Where did the fleet of the Navy go? Wang Yuze also personally went to the base camp to pay attention to this combat operation.

"Your Majesty, the troops have reached their designated positions and are ready to attack at any time. The navy's fleet of battleships 'Zhonghua' and 'Huaxia', as well as two heavy cruisers and several light cruisers, has already escorted the marines to their departure, and at present, the fleet of the 5th Marine Brigade has reached the South China Sea and will be able to enter the Strait of Malacca tomorrow to launch an attack on Singapore. The 1st Marine Brigade was able to land on Kalimantan today and attack the British ** team on the island. Chief of the General Staff Xiong Wu reported to Wang Yuze. After more than half a month of preparation, all the troops participating in the Nanyang operation were all ready.

"Very good, order the troops, and launch an attack at the scheduled time!" Wang Yuze nodded. The British Far East Fleet fleet was wiped out, and the entire South Sea region was no longer threatened by the British Navy, and the French Far East Fleet had already fled the South Sea and retreated to Africa. The armies of various countries in the South Seas are not China's opponents at all. For the squadron, the threat posed by the natural environment is probably greater than that posed by the enemy. Fortunately, two years ago, the squadron had already started training for operations in jungle areas, although it was not necessarily very proficient. But it will definitely not be inferior to the elite troops of various countries.

"Yes. 陛xià! Xiong Wu replied. In this war. The main direction of attack of the army is mainly Russia in the north, the South Seas region, Japan, and a possible landing in the United States. Now, on the Russian battlefield, the squadron is winning one after another, and the Russian army is not the opponent of the squadron at all. The colonial armies of Britain and France in the South Seas would not pose much of a threat to China. After the war in these two places has laid the foundation for victory. It's time for the squadron to land in Japan and completely solve Japan. As for the landing in the United States, it will be up to the subsequent development of the war. After all, it would be very difficult to strike the United States militarily across the entire Pacific Ocean, even with Hawaii as a forward base.

"In the South Seas operation, it is especially necessary to ensure the logistics of the army. Especially for the troops fighting in Burma, the pressure on logistics and supplies will be very high due to transportation constraints. Be sure to do a good job in logistics! Wang Yuze explained in particular. The traffic between China and Myanmar is very bad. There are just some old roads, or even just forest paths. This is for the march of large troops. It can cause a lot of stress.

"Your Majesty, the weapons and ammunition of the troops, we will try our best to ensure it. But in terms of food, we hope that we can agree to the troops to collect grain and grass on the spot! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said.

"Collect grain and grass on the spot?" Wang Yuze frowned. Of course he understood that. The number of troops fighting in Burma will reach more than 70,000 in four divisions, and it will be very difficult for such a large force to transport grain and grass from the country. The so-called local conscription is to collect grain and grass from those in Burma, buy it, or even directly requisition it by force to obtain supplies for the troops. If this is done, Wang Yuze is a little worried that it will provoke the Burmese people to resist, which may have a very bad impact on the subsequent war.

"What if the Burmese revolt is provoked? The Burmese natives are accustomed to fighting in the jungle, which may cause unnecessary trouble. If there is logistical pressure, airships can be used to transport them. Now that the battle in Vladivostok is over, the airship unit can be used to support the South Seas operation! Wang Yuze said.

"Yes, Your Majesty! However, if you can collect grain and grass on the spot, the pressure will be much less. As for the Burmese revolt, we can solve it. There are quite a few Chinese in Myanmar, and we have been in contact with these Chinese and they will support us when the time comes. In addition, there are many ethnic minorities in Myanmar, and in addition to the Burmese, who account for more than half of the population, there are hundreds of ethnic groups. Most of these ethnic groups have contradictions with the Burmese people, and we can support them in exchange for their support for us. At this point, the Military Intelligence Agency has been deploying for a long time, and it has achieved very good results, and several ethnic groups have agreed to cooperate with us! Chief of the General Staff Xiong Wu said.

"In that case, do what you planned! After defeating the British, I hope to establish a Chinese-dominated state in Burma that can become a subject state of the empire. When the time comes, the imperial army will ensure the security of Burma, and all the ethnic groups that resist must be severely suppressed! Wang Yuze said. For those ethnic minorities in Myanmar, it is now available. But when China reveals its ambitions for Myanmar, these Burmese will surely become China's enemies. When the time comes, it is very necessary to support some pro-China Burmese people and brutally suppress those ** Burmese people.

"Yes, Your Majesty! We'll arrange it. There are not many Chinese in Burma now, and when we wait until after the war, we can emigrate to Burma to ensure the rule of Manchuria! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said.

Wang Yuze nodded, very demographic. Although northern Myanmar is mountainous and has harsh natural conditions. However, if the Burmese people, who make up the majority of the Burmese population, can be suppressed and the Chinese will be able to secure their rule over Burma. When the time comes, whether to treat Myanmar as a colony or directly incorporate it into China, you can slowly consider it. However, this task is still very arduous, the total population of Myanmar is now tens of millions, and there are at least 6 million Burmese people, and these Burmese people occupy the most elite areas in the face, and it will be a very big task to get rid of these Burmese people. It's just that there will definitely be a lot of free labor in China at that time. In addition, there are the colonies of Indochina and the Malayan region, where the indigenous population of more than 10 million people combined, and the Chinese in these areas are only a very small minority, and in order to ensure the rule of the Chinese in the Nanyang region, it is necessary to resettle, and at the same time to adopt some means to reduce the situation of these indigenous people.

Of course, these are all post-war matters, and at this stage, it is necessary to defeat the Nanyang region first.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the squadron deployed on the border of Yunnan and Guangxi provinces began to attack Burma and the French Indochina colonies. The 7th, 28th and 52nd Divisions of the Southwest Military Region set out from Ruili and moved south to attack Lashio, and advanced all the way to the south. The 30th Division set out from Tengchong and attacked Myitkyina, sweeping through northwestern Burma before moving south. The British ** team that these four divisions had to face was only more than 30,000 people, in addition to more than 50,000 Indian troops urgently dispatched from India by the British, and more than 50,000 indigenous troops from Burma. Although the total has reached more than 100,000 people, it really has combat effectiveness, that is, the more than 30,000 British ** team. Whether it is the Indian Asan or the indigenous Burmese people, they are all vulnerable.

The 22nd, 24th, and 31st Divisions of the South China Military Region, as well as the newly formed 71st and 72nd Divisions, set out from Guangxi to attack the French Indochina colony. These armies will be divided into two routes, one with the 22nd and 31st Divisions as the main divisions, attacking Lang Son from Pingxiang, Guangxi, then south to attack the city of Thai Nguyen, an important town in northern Vietnam, and then south to attack Hanoi. On the other hand, the 31st Division and the newly formed 71st and 72nd Divisions attacked Vietnam's despicable Mong Cai from Dong Xing, and advanced south along the South China Sea, with the support of the navy, all the way to Saigon. As for the hinterland of Indochina, it is progressing gradually. As long as the French ** team concentrated in Vietnam is eliminated, the Indochina colony will be in hand. After the rise of China, in order to defend the Indochina colony, France successively sent more than 100,000 people to the Indochina colony, mainly concentrated in Vietnam. In addition, it also includes more than 200,000 indigenous troops of Indochina. It's just that the French, who are romantic by nature, may have a high talent in the field of art, but in war, they are not so adept. The General Staff planned to defeat the French and colonial forces in Indochina with five divisions, supported by the navy.

The British had only a regular army of just over 10,000 men in the Straits Settlements, and they were mainly concentrated in Singapore. For the rest, there are more than 20,000 colonial indigenous troops. The 5th Brigade and the 1st Brigade of the Marine Corps were enough to sweep away these British ** teams.

At this moment, the fleet of the Navy has escorted the two Marine brigades to the South China Sea. The 1st Brigade of the Marine Corps can land on Kalimantan today. And the 5th Brigade of the Marine Corps will not be able to launch an attack on Singapore until tomorrow.

After the battle broke out, it was very smooth. The four divisions of the Southwest Military Region inflicted heavy losses on the British ** team in the editing area, annihilated more than 10,000 British ** troops and more than 30,000 indigenous troops, and entered Burma in one fell swoop. The troops of the South China Military Region also defeated the French ** team and the indigenous army of Indochina at Lang Son and Mong Cai respectively, annihilating tens of thousands of enemies and entering Vietnam.

The 1st Marine Brigade, escorted by the Navy, landed at Bandar Seri Bega, defeated the British ** team defending the area, and began to clear out the British army and the indigenous army on Kalimantan. The war began to move in favor of China. (To be continued.) )
