"In just fifteen days, thirteen of our twenty-three scattered squads have been attacked. The troops that went to attack the Wehrmacht routes, supply lines and towns had three of them all......"

"There is no evaluation of our way of fighting from the base camp, nothing. His Excellency General Otozo Yamada, the new commander-in-chief of the base camp, gave us the only order we were: Hold on to Yiju and maintain an offensive posture against the National Defense Forces......"

In the jungle, Tomoo Kodama is in a meeting with the officers of his command. All of them were wearing shorts and shorts, and they could no longer maintain their appearance in Yizhou City.

There's no way around it, it's hard to maintain your appearance in the jungle. Bugs, mosquitoes, leeches, spiders and poisonous snakes are everywhere.

These could kill the soldiers at any time, and at this time they were more concerned about how to stay alive than about those useless appearances.

"Since entering the jungle, our non-combat attrition has reached more than 2,100 people. Some of the soldiers developed dysentery, scarlet fever, malaria, ...... and other diseases......"

None of the staff officers reported was good news. Non-combat attrition was severe, while plans to attack the IDF were repeatedly thwarted. Even some of the squads of the Rì army were unfamiliar with jungle warfare, which led to their whereabouts being exposed and they were surrounded and annihilated.

After the resignation of Hideki Tojo, the base camp has obviously entered a period of rectification. The new chief of staff headquarters, Yamada Otozo, did not give any evaluation of their combat unit in Yizhou.

Even many times the telegram sent to Yizhou was simple and straightforward. The perfunctory in those words can be felt even by a fool.

It is nothing more than "fight valiantly for the empire, do not tarnish the prestige of Your Majesty and the emperor" and other official statements. Even, Kodama Tomoo thought that these telegrams were probably not sent by the chief himself.

He just gave an order, and naturally the staff officers of the General Staff Headquarters helped him draw up such a telegram and send it to Yizhou. Such telegrams, the General Staff Headquarters used to not know how many to issue every day.

But despite this, Tomoo Kodama still needs a telegram from the base camp to stabilize people's hearts. The troops of the Rì Army who are now staying in Yizhou are already lonely. What awaits them, in fact, everyone knows what is coming.

But no one is going to find fault with this fact, and the telegraph from the base camp is the only way for them to maintain their fantasized existence. Only telegrams kept coming, and they reached the soldiers of the Rì army.

Only then will they have the courage to continue fighting. But if this anger is deflated, then the entire Rì army in Yizhou will all fall apart......

"Aside from these, do we have any good news to hear......" Keishichiro, chief of staff of the Yizhou Garrison, rubbed his brows and sighed.

"If there's good news...... Maybe the local tribes in Yizhou that we contacted have agreed to fight with us, which may be good news......"

The staff officer paused and said, "Of course, they don't have any weapons. The best are just a hundred powder guns, all homemade. ”

Is that good news?! Maybe it's barely counted, these local tribes in Yizhou have been purged more than once, and most of the rest are more obedient tribes.

Moreover, most of these tribes live in the mountains. They are not familiar with the situation outside the mountain at all, which means that the reason why they are willing to help the rì army is completely because they were once afraid of the rì army.

If they had known of the existence and strength of the Wehrmacht, God knows if these tribes would have turned against the tide.

"Send our men into their villages, and all their men must come out to fight." Higuchi Keishiro was silent for a while, and said, "We have to catch their handles, these Yizhou tribes can't be trusted!" ”

"I also think we should do this, preferably by moving all their families to our neighborhood after their men follow us into the war."

Tomoo Kodama nodded and said in a cold voice: "If they dare to contact the Wehrmacht during the attack, then let the people left behind destroy all these tribes!" ”

"Then, I'll do this for you......" Keitharo Higuchi said fiercely, "If they don't obey, then I'll let them know what regret is!" ”

At the same time, Juhani was walking around anxiously in his bamboo building. It has been more than half a month since Mara Ousi went out, and there has been no news so far.

Juhani had his own sources of information, and he soon learned that Rìben had suffered a crushing defeat in other parts of Yizhou. More than a thousand troops of the Rì Army were annihilated.

The heads of the soldiers were cut off and hung from trees outside the towns. The rest of the tribes also learned about the situation one after another.

Tribes and tribes began to let go of their grudges and connect with each other. They can see that Rì himself is at the end of the road. Unwilling to be destroyed, they are now ready to pull some substitutes for the dead ghosts.

And these tribes of their own are the substitutes they see.

Juhani was eager to send some more people out to see if he could contact the Wehrmacht, but there were a large number of Rì Army troops living in the vicinity of his clan.

Obviously, Rì himself is not at ease with himself. This made Juhani dare not act rashly, for fear that once his actions attracted the attention of the rì army, it would bring disaster to the entire tribe.

The tribe had more than thirty rifles hidden in it, and five pistols of its own. The rest were all powder guns, and Juhani didn't think they could hold off the rì army armed to the teeth outside.

Those machine guns that have been erected only need to sweep around the stockade. Then there won't be much left in the whole stockade to breathe. At that time, Rì himself didn't even have to come in, just burn the stockade with a fire.

"Patriarch! Patriarch! At that moment, shouts came from outside the door. Juhani opened the door and walked out of the bamboo building, but saw a middle-aged man dressed in Juha costume downstairs anxiously saying to Juhani who came out.

"Patriarch, the army outside has asked us to gather all the men to fight them. From fifty to fifteen years old, no one is allowed to be missing! Patriarch, what now?! ”

Before Juhani could ask anything, the man spoke in one breath. Juhani, who heard the news, sighed.

It's time to come after all, what else can I do now?!

"Inform everyone in the stockade, let's gather......" Juhani, who was silent on the bamboo tower for a while, said helplessly: "Let everyone gather...... After a while, I went over and talked to them......"

Juhani said and walked down the bamboo building. He glanced at the forest across from his bamboo building. Only he and the few elders in the village knew that the forest contained the biggest secret of the village—more than thirty rifles and five pistols.

This is the biggest reliance of this stockade, and it is also the secret that the stockade cannot expose. The origin of those guns is not above board. There was even a part of it that Juhani led his men to hunt the soldiers of the rì army in the area of other stockades.

For these guns, a number of people died in the stockade. However, the stockades near the disappearance of the rì soldiers were directly slaughtered by the rì army. The whole stockade was turned into a scorched earth.

The first shot was because a lone drunk soldier wanted to rob them of the wild boar they had shot. The angry man accidentally killed this rì soldier.

In order to deal with the aftermath, Juhani had to take someone to dispose of the corpse of this rì soldier overnight. And a gag order was issued. When the corpse of the rì soldier appeared near the other stockades, the stockade was cleaned up by the rì himself.

It was from then on that Juhani became determined to keep looking for guns. He led his men and searched for lone soldiers of the Rì Army near other stockades.

Then get rid of them and bring the guns back to the stockade. Over time, the number of guns in the stockade has reached its current level.

"Mara OS...... You have to find a way out for the village! Otherwise, our clan will be finished......" Juhani thought as he walked downstairs again.

There were many patriarchs who thought like Juhani, but Keishiro Higuchi didn't bother to pay attention. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

He believed that the machine guns he set up in front of the stockade would make these natives of Yizhou sober up. If they weren't sober yet, Keishichiro Higuchi wouldn't mind killing a few chickens and telling them how to sober.

He is now counting exactly how many people can join his coercion. Those who had been engaged in jǐng cha work during the rì period were now also wanted and hunted down by the Wehrmacht.

It is better to say that there is no human life on the hands, at most they are treated with hard labor. And those who had assisted the rì army in encircling and suppressing the village were almost all shot directly.

A large number of Yizhou natives who used to be Jǐng Cha chose to bring weapons to join the rì army in the mountains and forests. These people are desperate, and their only option now is to follow their own path to the dark.

In this respect, these people are much more reliable than those in the village. It is a pity that the Wehrmacht's encirclement and suppression efforts are too strong. The only people who fled to the jungle and could still find the Rì army were only more than 2,000 people.

"Distribute our weapons, and ammunition. As for the natives, we don't have to give them anything. Higuchi Keishichiro held the statistical table in his hand and said in a deep voice, "This time we are attacking Mongjia, and we must ensure the success of the operation. ”

"There is a large amount of supplies there, and as long as we fight it, we will be able to continue to support the operation." After a pause, Keitharo Higuchi said fiercely, "As for those natives...... Let them do the gun blockers! It's an honor to be able to block some bullets for the warriors of the Empire! ”

The battle plan was made a long time ago, and Tomoo Kodama did not personally precinct it. These orders were all given by Keishiro Higuchi.

"Hay!" After recording the order, the staff officer handed it over to Keishiro Higuchi. It was only after obtaining the latter's signature that he was able to relay these orders.

Keishichiro Higuchi rubbed his eyebrows and sat down in his chair without saying a word. Seeing this, the adjutant wanted to say something, but was driven down by Keitharo Higuchi with a wave of his hand.

Rìjun's current situation is terrible, and neither Kodama Tomoo nor Keitharo Higuchi knows how long they will be able to hold out. Wehrmacht troops have landed and are pursuing the Rì Army in Manyizhou.

The jungle is the best hideaway, but it's also a deadly place. There are countless snakes, insects, rats and ants, each of which can easily kill the soldiers of the Rì Army.

Keitharo Higuchi even calculated it himself, even if the Wehrmacht did not encircle him. Support for a year at most, and the rì army itself will collapse. In the unfed, dark jungle. It's a strange thing that the troops don't fall apart.

In order to be able to sustain itself, it is also to replenish provisions. Tomoo Kodama and Keitshichiro Higuchi devised this plan to attack Mongkai. This plan was not opposed by anyone.

Maybe all the officers of the Rì Army have such a thought in their hearts, since they are all going to die, why don't they die happily?! Rì's own natural gambling is once again reflected in them.

In this attack, they either captured the armor to obtain a large amount of supplies, and at the same time were able to support it. Either that, it was completely annihilated by the Wehrmacht and then disappeared from Yizhou.

Prepared for both, they were ready. Now they are just waiting for the moment when the answer is lifted, life or death is like that.

"It seems that the gambling of these people has swelled again, and they are even thinking of attacking Mongjia?!" Luján sneered with intelligence in his own command.

I have to admire the intelligence gathering ability of the General Staff, even if there is still an inside line of the General Staff in the current Yizhou Rì Army. Before those rì troops were dispatched, their situation had already been figured out.

The defeat of the army during this period has to be said to be the credit of the intelligence department of the General Staff. More than seventy percent of the rì army's attack, and the intelligence was obtained. It is a pity that the inner line has not figured out the location of the main force of the Rì army.

This time, it was also the main force that was gathered, and this insider was able to get in touch with the position of the main force.

"Commander, they're finally out of hiding! Let's take this opportunity to kill it well?! An Sibo, commander of the First Army Corps of the South China Military Region, was extremely excited.

After returning from the Southeast Asian battlefield, Lao An has never fought a good victory. This made him very regretful. The landing battle on Qiongdao and the landing battle on Yizhou were both fought by the marines.

After the South China Military Region came over, it basically carried out some tasks to suppress bandits. That little bit of blood really made Lao An feel that it was not enjoyable enough. Finally, Rì himself couldn't hold back and was about to jump out, how could this not make Lao An excited?!

"If they want to die, then let's let them die." Lu Han smiled and said, "Let the wind go, I've been staying in Mongjia recently......"

As soon as Ansibo heard Lu Han's words, he immediately gave a thumbs up. The commander of the South China Military Region of the Wehrmacht is in Mongjia, which will undoubtedly make Rì himself even more excited.

If the commander of the South China Military Region is killed, the whole of Yizhou will be in chaos. And the Wehrmacht Navy Combined Fleet has now withdrawn from Yizhou, and the Marines have also withdrawn.

Now in charge of Yizhou is the South China Military Region. If Lu Han is killed, it is inevitable that the entire Yizhou and even the Minjiang River, northern Guangdong and other places will inevitably fall into a period of chaos.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the Rì army can completely fish in troubled waters. A large amount of supplies were looted from the areas where other national defense forces were stationed in Yizhou. Of course, after the chaos, they will face the all-out encirclement and suppression of the Wehrmacht.

However, to be able to take out a military commander of the Wehrmacht, I believe that Rì himself will not think too much.

"Xiao An, you go and call everyone to a meeting." Lu Han sneered and said, "Since Rì himself is coming, let's not entertain us well, that's not our hospitality!" ”

The rì army of Yizhou was under the idea of attacking Mongjia, while Tu Mengben was under the idea of landing on Rìben. The three landing operations were actually for the Navy and the Marine Corps to accumulate experience.

The landing operation for the final attack on the mainland is the most important thing for the Wehrmacht to carry out its strategy!

"How's the situation in Fukuoka now?!" Tu Mengben was reading the telegrams sent by the navy, they had replenished supplies in Shanghai and were coming to Seoul.

Once the Combined Fleet and Marines have all arrived, the countdown to the landing on the mainland will begin.

"More than 80 of the ground buildings in Fukuoka have been destroyed, and we have been bombing their fortifications on the beach." After a pause, Chief of Staff Su Zongzhe said: "But the Rì Army still has a lot of air-raid shelter systems, and almost all of Fukuoka's troops are hidden there......"

At the same time, the Rì army built several fortifications in the direction of Fukuoka towards Tokyo. And along the way, a large number of tunnels and caves were built, which shows that the base camp of the Rì army seems to want to fight a protracted war with us......"

Tu Mengben sneered and didn't squeak. It's already this level, and Rì himself still doesn't give up. Or rather, they are not reconciled.

"Is there any news from the United States?!" Tu Mengben has been paying attention to the U.S. reaction to Rìben's offer to surrender to them, but the U.S. has not made a statement until now.

"At present, the United States does not have an obvious attitude, and there is a lot of controversy in their Congress about this matter...... Su Zongzhen said with a wry smile: "President Roosevelt and General Marshall are obviously opposed to this proposal, but some forces in Congress seem to think that we should be curbed to a certain extent." At the very least, to limit the fact that we cannot threaten the interests of the United States in the Pacific......"

"It is precisely because this matter has not been determined that the US military units that were originally scheduled to attack Iwo Jima are still staying on Guam." Su Zongzhen said, glanced at Tu Mengben and said, "They said to the outside world that they were repairing supplies, but we knew that they had just received an order to suspend the attack. ”

"The Pacific Ocean is very big, and they can accommodate us." Tu Mengben sneered and said: "The only food in the Pacific Ocean, Americans have eaten it for so many years. It's also time to spit it out. ”

"They don't fight, we do!" Tu Mengben replied very simply: "Isn't the US fleet still parked on Guam?!" Then let's fight Iwo Jima ourselves! ”

"The General Staff has drawn up a plan, and the Combined Fleet will attack the Navy head-on after the landing battle on the Honhon!" Tu Mengben said coldly: "Defeat Yamamoto Fifty-Six!" Tell the Americans, whether they want it or not. Pacific, we will all come! ”
