At 3 p.m. on June 7, 1942, Hawaii time, and at 7 p.m. Beijing time on June 8, 1942, the Japanese army concentrated six armies and began to divide its troops into five routes and start a general offensive against all parts of Southeast Asia. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

-- Saigon

Saigon was the headquarters of the Japanese Southern Army at this time, and the commander-in-chief, Terauchi Shouichi, was listening to reports from all sides.

"Report! At 1:57 a.m. Tokyo time, Kota Bharu made a successful landing. ”

"Report, our army successfully attacked the airfield in the north of the Malay Peninsula, and our army only lost four fighters!"

-- Malaysia

Near Kota Bharu on the northeast coast of the Malay Peninsula, three large Japanese transport ships anchored in the moonlight, and the 18th Division of the Army led by Major General Tomi had already washed up on the beach at this time, and countless yellow figures waved rifles and flags in the moonlight, sweeping towards the Malay Peninsula, and in front of them, there was not even a trace of British troops, only a few fishing boats in the distance watched all this in amazement. It was not until thousands of people rushed onto the beach that the guns rang out on the British defensive positions.

"Order the troops to attack in a roundabout way, the task force will go through the dense forest, find their airfield, order the naval artillery cover, and the second team will prepare to attack!!" Major General Tomi glanced contemptuously at the British position opposite, he could hear from the sound of gunfire, there were not many people on the other side, these whites had been comfortable in Asia for too long, even though the homeland was constantly being bombed by the Germans, it was still a scene of horses and horses.

The commander of the British forces in Malaysia, Lieutenant General Percival, and the commander-in-chief of the British forces in the Far East, Air Admiral Popham, had always been unconcerned about the possibility of a Japanese attack, believing that Japan could only fight a dozen countries like China, which had no industrial strength, and would never dare to offend a real European power. What's more, there are nearly 90,000 troops in Malaysia to defend it, of course, due to the war in Europe, the troops here are not as good as the troops in the European battlefield in terms of training and equipment, but in their minds, this is definitely not the object that the Japanese army can challenge. When they got that only 10 of their 158 planes in the northern part of the Malay Peninsula remained, and that the Japanese had begun to land in Malaysia, they were left stunned and unable to think of a way forward.

"Report! The Songkhla landing was successful and did not meet the resistance of the British troops. ”

"Report! The 15th Army called, our army's advance force has entered Thailand, the Thai government has no resistance, and it is expected to arrive in Bangkok tomorrow! ”

-- Thailand

When the Thai government learned that the Japanese army had entered Thailand, there was also a dispute internally, but in the end it was decided to use a compromise method, that is, to agree to the Japanese army's request to borrow the road, and at the same time not to declare war with Britain and the United States, and not to sign any military alliance treaty with Japan, but can a piece of paper really restrain the actions of the Japanese army? Is it true that the Japanese army is just going to borrow the road? The Thai government will naturally feel how honest their friends really are.

In Songkhla, the territory of Thailand, near the Kra Isthmus, the flag of the rising sun had been raised, and the northern part of the British army, which had been intended as a barrier, had become a bridgehead for the Japanese attack, and Yamashita Bongbun could already rush directly from here to Singapore with his tiger and wolf power.

"Report! A telegram from Taiwan said that our army had launched a large-scale bombing of Hong Kong, and the airspace over Hong Kong had been controlled by our army. ”

"Report! The 38th Division sent a telegram saying that our army had launched a land attack on Hong Kong, and the British garrison in Hong Kong was resisting, and the fighting was expected to end within three days. ”

-- Hong Kong

Hong Kong, which is regarded by countless people as a place to escape from the war, is still the iron hoof of the Japanese army in the end, Huang Jinrong in Hong Kong looked at all this, shook his head and said to the people next to him, "If the British are driven away this time, they will never want to come back... Let's get out of here, Hong Kong is over. ”

-- Saigon

"Report! General Takahashi Iwang called, our army has carried out air strikes on the Philippines, and the US military airfield and naval base have been severely damaged by our army! ”

"Report! General Honma telegraphed that our army had captured the Batan Islands, north of Luzon. The landing attack on the Philippines will begin in two days! ”

-- Philippines

MacArthur, the defender of the Philippines, received the news that the Japanese army would attack the American army before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, which improved the defense level of the Philippines, but such preparations were so powerless in the face of the unprecedented attack of the Japanese army, MacArthur looked at the battle reports from all over the place, and only felt as if he was standing on the edge of a cliff.

MacArthur calmed down and said, "The Japanese army has not yet landed in the Philippines, we still have a chance, now what we have to do is to prepare for a beachhead decisive battle, haven't we called back from the country yet?" ”

After Roosevelt, Marshall, and others got the news of the attack on the Philippines, they just sent a telegram that was waiting for reinforcements, saying that reinforcements were being organized, of course, if MacArthur knew about the tragic situation at Pearl Harbor at this time, he would not believe that there would be any reinforcements.

MacArthur was chewing his pipe, constantly cheering himself up, and he suddenly remembered that people had been leaving the Philippines in recent times, and he immediately exclaimed, "Damn it!" Those Chinese know to fight! They must have known that those guys didn't even inform us!! ”

-- Saigon

"Report! The 25th Army called, and our army successfully launched the bombing of Singapore, in which our army found traces of British battleships. ”

-- Singapore

Singapore, known as the Lion City, was full of cries and shouts at this time, the sky was full of Japanese planes, Japanese planes dropped bombs and low-altitude strafing from time to time, and the British troops guarding Singapore looked at this apocalyptic scene, their morale was almost extremely low, and the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns were even more unsightly, and Singapore became a hell on earth.

Yu Qiaqing, who was watching this scene at the window, sighed, and said to Chen Jiageng next to him, "Fortunately, we prepared early, most of the children have been transferred, otherwise this catastrophe will be over, and the property of our overseas Chinese in Nanyang will be counted, and the loss of this person will be too great." ”

Tan Kah Kee nodded and said, "Once the British are lost, I don't think they will be able to come back here... Singapore, whatever the final outcome, can no longer be a white man's world. ”

The successive victories of the Five-Way Army relieved Hirohito and others in Tokyo, and Hirohito smiled at the cabinet members who had been sitting quietly for a day.

"Your Majesty! What a victory!! This is the heavens to help the imperial country, our army has been able to win victory after victory, according to this way, within three months, the Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Circle will be completed! Hideki Tojo's tears of excitement were about to come out, God knows how much pressure he felt in his heart, this adventure was almost single-handedly promoted by him, if he failed, he probably wouldn't end well.

Hirohito nodded and said, "Then prepare to declare it to the people, and prepare to declare war on various countries, Asia is the Asia of the yellow race!" It's my Asia! ”

Report! A call came from Shanghai that our army had entered the concession, and the British and American troops in the concession were resisting, and the fighting would definitely end within two days. ”

Another good news came, Tojo Hideki and the others nodded with a smile, and behind them, a guard slowly pulled up the British and American flags on the Shanghai Concession on the huge sand table, and there was no suspense in the battle.

At 12 o'clock in the afternoon Tokyo time, Japan issued a declaration of war against Britain and the United States to the world:

We declared war on the United States and Britain, and the generals of the army and navy fought with all their might, and all the officials and officers of the country did their duty, and they must work together to give full play to the total strength of the country in order to achieve the goal of the war.

Ensuring the stability of East Asia and benefiting world peace is indeed the grandeur of our ancestors and ancestors, and I have never forgotten it. And the friendship with all countries and the joy of sharing the common prosperity of all nations, it is also the Empire's consistent foreign policy... (See the full text of this chapter book review, no water)

The edict was announced in Hirohito's voice, and the Japanese emperor's responsibility for this war is self-evident!

-- Washington

This day and night was something that Roosevelt will never forget, and the constant feedback from various places indicated that Japan had launched a general attack on the entire Pacific region, whether it was the Philippines or Singapore, whether it was Hong Kong or Malaysia, there were traces of Japanese planes in the skies everywhere.

The American people, at this time, are full of a mood of sadness and indignation, which has never happened in the entire history of the United States, from the east coast to the west coast, from the south to the north, the Americans are using all the methods they can think of to convey the news, the specific loss of Pearl Harbor has not been counted clearly, but the anger of the Americans has reached the highest value. The humiliation and anger constantly pounded into their heads, making them want to vent in any way they could.

He Ankang and others immediately took action, and all the newspapers and magazines in the hands of the Sage Society frantically exaggerated the public opinion of revenge, and even the stockings, medicines and other goods sold in the stores were hung out: "For every dollar sold, five cents will be turned into a bomb and fall on the heads of the Japanese!" slogan. As for how the hell it came to be.... He Ankang said he was ready to open a military factory.

Another day came, Roosevelt and others came to Congress, this was the first time that Congress was convened so urgently, many congressmen arrived by plane last night, and the United States entered a state of emergency.

Dressed in a dark blue navy cloak, Roosevelt stood on the podium and began his most memorable speech.

He looked at the silent crowd and said, "Yesterday, June 7, 1942, a day of shame that will always be remembered by the United States, on this day, the United States of America was attacked by the Imperial Japanese Navy and Air Force, and Pearl Harbor, the home port of our Pacific Fleet, suffered heavy losses. Troops to Hong Kong! Troops to Thailand! Troops to Singapore! Send troops to the Philippines! Today, the Japanese army is attacking our Wake Island and Midway, and we will always remember what this attack represents, we, a country and a people who are bent on peace and avoiding war, have been dragged into war by an evil and despicable country, then, let us tell them that no matter how long it takes, and how long it costs, we must rely on the forces of justice, reliable allies, to completely defeat these enemies, and completely destroy them physically and spiritually! I request -- Diet declares: From the moment the Japanese Empire unprovoked this war was launched by the Japanese Empire on Sunday, June 7, the United States and Japan are officially at war, and at the same time, to deprive Japan of all its assets in the United States, and to form an alliance with Britain and other countries that have also been attacked, to jointly destroy this evil country of Japan, may God bless America! ”

The members of Congress fell into a discussion, and Roosevelt squinted slightly at this time, yes, he cheated, Germany at this time has not yet declared war with the United States, he just wants to force those who are not willing to go to war with Germany to vote for this, this time, if anyone votes against, then as long as the propaganda is out, all Americans will tear him apart! Roosevelt knew the power of the populace well, better than anyone else in America!

The result of the vote was one abstention, and all others were in favor, and American isolationism seemed to die overnight, and the roar of war resounded throughout the North American continent.

Jiang looked at the telegrams sent by various countries, and said to Chen Bui with a smile, "It's time, you can declare war!" ”

When the newspapers and radio in Chongqing told everyone the news of the war between the United States and Japan, the whole Chongqing fell into a state of jubilation, and even many people took out firecrackers and set them off, Eisenhower in Chongqing looked at such a picture, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said to the people next to him, "I don't know how to evaluate this matter, the people here seem to be on the Japanese side, and the last time I saw such a scene seemed to be the armistice day of the last war." ”

On the same day, Chiang received a telegram from Churchill: "Your Excellency, both the British Empire and the United States have been attacked by Japan, and we have always been friends, and now we have a common enemy!" ”

-- Bangkok

Looking at the gloomy smile of the Japanese officer in his eyes, Thai Prime Minister Luang Phibun Songkhan smiled bitterly and nodded helplessly.

After the Japanese army left, only Luang Phibun Songkan's cronies were left in the office, and one of them immediately whispered, "Prime Minister, although Japan's strength is very strong, the strength of Britain and the United States is not weak, if we get involved in such a big war, victory is good, once lost, our country's independent power that has been insisted on for a hundred years will be destroyed in one fell swoop!" ”

Luang Phibun Songkhan glared at him and said, "Don't I know? ... Is Prince Subbaswad Swastiwad still in the UK? ”

One nodded and said, "Yes, due to the outbreak of the Anglo-German war, he has not returned home. ”

Luang Phibun Songkhon whispered, "Immediately inform the ambassador in the United States and the Prince of Great Britain by reliable means. Let them dissociate themselves from us, France has a free France, so why can't we have a free Thailand in Thailand? ”

Everyone nodded in surprise, indicating that they understood.

On June 10, 1942, Thailand declared war on China, Britain, the United States and other countries!

On June 10, 1942, China, Britain, and the United States declared war on Thailand!

Declare war! Declare war! Declare war!! War has been declared everywhere in the world, diplomats are constantly on the move, and the changes in diplomatic relations around the world in the past few days have made anyone's head spin.

The world war has officially broken out, and at this moment, more than three-quarters of the world's population is involved in this unprecedented battle, and more than 30 million troops are fighting around the world, and this number is still rising rapidly. Countless young men and women began to enlist in the army, and no one knows what the outcome of this war will be, the only thing that is known is that it was the largest war in human history.
