Chapter 1075: Yang Mou

Sugiyama Moto, who was in India, quickly got the news, and when he got the news, he could only smile bitterly. The 21st and 36th divisions were originally the units he intended to use to hold back the Wehrmacht.

Now that it has been swallowed all, there is not a single bone residue left, which is understandable. But what he didn't expect was that the Japanese soldiers in the entire Southeast Asian region would defect so quickly overnight.

Bao Da and Qiang Zheng, these two poor creatures who were originally playthings in the hands of the Japanese, took real power overnight. King Rama VIII, the poor king who had to live in exile in Switzerland, now rules Thailand.

Not to mention that those unknown groups jumped left and right, and they cooperated with the Wehrmacht to take over the whole of Southeast Asia.

Only then did Sugiyama realize that Southeast Asia, which he thought was impregnable, had already been infiltrated by the Wehrmacht like a sieve. Thinking of this, Sugiyama couldn't help but smile bitterly. This battle is not unjustly lost......

At this time, Japan, which had lost its strategic resources in Southeast Asia, was forced to abandon the open seas under the condition that its navy was severely damaged and it was completely reorganized. It only takes all its naval forces back to the waters of Qiong and Bay for defense.

Although it was said that the Japanese Navy had suffered a heavy blow, the Wehrmacht Navy could only give priority to escorting weapons, equipment, and combat personnel to Southeast Asia for defense due to its own lack of strength.

At present, except for the remnants of Sugiyama Moto's Southern Army, the rest of the Japanese troops have all shrunk back to the home area and are preparing for local defensive operations.

The entire base camp of the Japanese army has lost the confidence to attack again. Their only operational idea now is to hold Japan up until the end of the war.

Both Qiongdao and Wan Island were hoarded with large numbers of troops for the upcoming Wehrmacht landing battle. In the Pacific, the main bases for defense were Iwo Jima and Guam.

There is a gloom in Japan, and everyone has to admit it, even though they don't want to admit it. In this war, Japan has stepped aside. What they can do now. Only waiting for the end of the war.

Without enough resources to support it, even if they repair their warships and complete the production of fighters, they do not have enough fuel to support their navy to carry out an ocean-going campaign.

This is the tragedy of small countries, which are unable to sustain a war on their own once their resources are constrained. When they were at war with the Qing Empire, the European and American powers would not block their resources. And at the time of the Russo-Japanese War, they could win the war with American resources and Jewish loans.

During World War I, they sent almost no troops except for sending cruisers to Europe to assist in anti-submarine operations.

It can be said that they won these wars very lucky. Or rather. They are very lucky to win on the tip of the knife. But this luck will not be endless.

The biggest mistake of the Japanese is that they have won the war because they are lucky and think that this luck is their own. This kind of arrogant, complacent, and arrogant mentality occupies almost the entire Japanese leadership.

This kind of blind arrogance eventually sent Japan to hell and could not turn over. China's 918, because of the appearance of the slaughter of the tiger, completely failed. And the entire Chinese battlefield. Japan, which had been planned to end in three months, was eventually forced to withdraw from the battlefield.

And the war has been going on until now, and even the resource land previously occupied by the Japanese army has been forced to give up. It can be said that Japan was completely defeated in this war. Their only hope now was that the Axis powers, led by Germany, would win the war.

Otherwise, Japan's fate can be imagined.

The United States and other allies have stated that they will leave all Asian affairs to China. And in the case of the Philippines, most of the allies did the same.

From these things. Japan is already seeing the clues. To put it simply, the fate of the whole of Japan is now in China's hands. Of course, this was based on the premise that the Allies would win.

"Tell Sugiyama Moto, no matter what price he pays, he must rush to the Moscow battlefield!" Hirohito combined the judgment of all the staff members. Ordered to Xianyuan Gong Zairen: "Germany must win the war, this is the only way for us to get out of Chinese control......"

"Once the Allies won the war, then the fate of our Great Japanese Empire ......"

Hirohito didn't say the next words, but he understood in his heart. What did the Japanese do on Chinese soil. They know it.

The hatred between the two countries can be described as undying, and the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht has already captured the germ bombs of the Japanese army. At the same time, he did not hesitate to announce. These bacteriological bombs will be used in Japan.

The entire Japanese leadership knows what the Wehrmacht will gain if the war drags on and the Wehrmacht receives resources from Southeast Asia and technical support from Europe and the United States.

And what will Japan face as China grows stronger?

"The rise and fall of empires, the survival of royalty are fought here. If it wins, the empire will create a century of prosperity. If it is defeated, the empire will not be able to turn over for a hundred years......"

What Hirohito said is not impossible. The vast territory and abundant resources of China were almost completely devastated after the First Sino-Japanese Naval War. If it were not for the Wehrmacht and Tu Mengben, the rise of the Chinese Navy would have been long and distant.

But without a strong navy, it would be impossible to deter Japan at all. They may not even be able to secure their own coastlines, and their territorial waters will be violated.

"Chirp...... Rumble! Rumble!! Boom ...... "Tukhachevsky has forgotten that this is the first time he has increased his troops, and he has forgotten how many times he has asked the rear to send troops to the front.

A large number of Soviet troops rushed to the German positions again and again, and were covered by German fire in front of the positions again and again. Soviet artillery was constantly firing at German artillery positions in an attempt to suppress German artillery fire.

But what they met with was an even more fierce counterattack from the Germans. It was not only the Soviet army that suffered heavy losses. The British and American armies were no better.

Patton organized several charges in an attempt to break through the German positions. But every time it came back with a feather. The Germans were placed in a large number of anti-tank positions, and at the same time there were armored units at all times.

After losing more than a dozen tanks, Patton had to choose to withdraw.

There were not many troops Montgomery had brought with him from Canada, and the faces that had once been familiar were gone. Batch after batch of soldiers were brought in from the Canadian mainland.

Every day the list of those killed in battle was long, and Montgomery was even numb to it. The fighting has reached such a terrible level. I can't help but think of Verdun in Montgomery.

It was a nightmare for the Anglo-French and German armies, when France committed seventy-five divisions and 1.14 million men. The German army, on the other hand, had 50 divisions and 1.25 million troops.

The battle resulted in more than 530,000 casualties for the French and 430,000 for the Germans.

The brutal fighting had a huge psychological impact, which almost led to the French soldiers choosing to mutiny on the battlefield. In the end, however, the French command at the time issued an order promising the soldiers not to take part in any harsh battles against the Germans in the future, so that the mutiny did not really take place.

And now, the intensity of the war here is obviously many times stronger than Versailles. The Allies have gathered more than two million troops here.

And the three-way army that the Germans gathered before and after the front and back also exceeded 1.5 million in total. The firepower available to both sides includes fighter jets, bombers, tanks...... Even train guns!

It's just the British army. As many as 150,000 people have been killed in this position. The casualties of the American army were heavier than those of the British. Only the casualties of the Soviet Union were not announced.

But both Montgomery and Eisenhower roughly guessed that their casualties were at least 300,000 or more. The Soviets were constantly replenishing their forces with at least one division a day, and these forces could be lost in just one day.

Then, the Soviets continued to recruit new soldiers from the rear to go to the battlefield. Constantly wear and tear on the battlefield.

On the part of the Germans, although there are no exact figures. However, according to the estimates of both sides during the offensive and defense, they also lost at least more than 200,000 troops.

The reason why the Allies and the Germans suffered so much was because everyone knew that it was almost winter. The USSR in winter, will be a nightmare for all enemies who attack it.

Logistics are likely to be interrupted in the snow and ice, and tanks and warplanes are often unusable. Severe cold will bring a lot of non-combat attrition, while snow will make it more difficult to attack.

So, the Germans have been desperately attacking in an attempt to storm Moscow before winter comes. The Allies were constantly trying to withstand the German onslaught, trying to prevent the Germans from entering Moscow.

Both Churchill and Roosevelt gave strict orders to their respective troops. It was necessary to hold the Germans in Moscow. As soon as Moscow is gone, then the spirit of the entire Soviet Union will be drained.

When the time comes, the Allies will most likely face the collapse of the entire Soviet Union. Obviously, the Soviets also knew this, so they did not dare to take a step back despite the casualties of desperately defending this position.

"Sugiyama Gen was defeated in Southeast Asia. His troops have been withdrawn to India. According to the analysis given to us by the Wehrmacht, it is likely that the Japanese will have this remnant army join their Soviet expeditionary force and be responsible for the attack on Moscow together with the Germans......"

At the Allied Operational Conference, Patton reported to Montgomery, Tukhachevsky, and Eisenhower. It wasn't originally his job. But Eisenhower chose to make a debriefing in order for him to appear at a meeting of the Allied leadership.

"According to the statistics of the Wehrmacht. Sugiyama Moto's Southern Army now had at least five divisions of more than 100,000 troops. This included the Japanese artillery and tank units......"

The captured Japanese soldiers did not hesitate to confess everything they knew, and even the Wehrmacht honestly confessed to them without too much interrogation.

They were terrified by the Wehrmacht's brutal methods, the piles of corpses, the Kyokan made of human heads, and the Japanese soldiers who wailed that their throats had been cut.

This all frightened them. Therefore, when they choose to survive from the bottom of their hearts, it becomes natural to explain these situations.

"And Sugiyama Moto, according to the analysis, he will most likely be appointed commander of the Japanese Expeditionary Force. The 100,000 troops he has will reach more than 150,000 when combined with the Japanese Expeditionary Force. In other words, our flanks are likely to be threatened by more than 150,000 Japanese troops......"

After the briefing, Patton closed the document and nodded to the three Allied Supreme Commanders, "That's roughly the case. ”

Montgomery and the others were silent after listening to the report. More than 150,000 Japanese troops, threatening the Allies from the flank, this is not a trivial matter. The Allies are now a little too busy to take care of the Germans on the main position, why should they spare their forces to deal with the Japanese?!

But if they were allowed to get close to Moscow and cooperate with the Germans in launching a full-scale campaign, resulting in the Allies' rear route, it would probably lead to the collapse of the entire war.

"They must be stopped, we need troops to cut off the offensive line of this Japanese army. It's best to annihilate them. The worst is to keep them out of Moscow......"

The first to speak was Marshal Tukhachevsky of the Soviet Union, and if there was any pressure on the Allied generals present, then there would be no doubt that it would be Tukhachevsky.

From the beginning of the campaign, however, Trotsky did not put any pressure on him. But as the commander-in-chief of the Soviet army, no one was more distressed than him when he watched a large number of Soviet troops lose on the battlefield like this.

With each loss, Tukhachevsky knew what effect this would have on the post-war development of the Soviet Union. With each loss, Tukhachevsky knew that the vitality of the USSR had been depleted by another point.

It was now the most critical moment of the campaign, and as long as it was winter, the Germans would slow down their offensive even if they were unwilling.

Even without strong logistical support, they could only be on the defensive and unable to attack. The Soviet Union in spring was covered with mud after the snow melted. Tanks, logistics will be greatly affected.

That is, as long as it could hold out until the winter, the USSR would have won several months of respite. In these months, with the huge military assistance provided by the United States and China, the Soviet Union can use these weapons and veterans who have survived the battlefield to arm a powerful army.

It was not until the end of the spring and the resumption of war that the Soviet Union had a chance to compete with Germany on a relatively equal footing.

"My advice. It is to urge the commander of the Pacific Theater of Operations, General Tu Mengben, to send his troops to the Soviet Union to support our operations......" Tukhachevsky looked at Eisenhower and said: "Now we can't draw out our troops, only he has just finished the campaign in Southeast Asia and has a lot of troops on hand." ”

And his troops also have a lot of experience fighting the Japanese army. I believe that he can definitely stop the Japanese army from moving towards Moscow. Even, his troops may completely annihilate the remnants of the Japanese army......"

There were things that Tukhachevsky did not say, Eisenhower knew but he would not say. None of you are stupid. The reason why this Japanese army was able to flow to India and even join the Japanese Expeditionary Force must have been due to the Wehrmacht's release of water.

Although they did not fully understand the situation in the Southeast Asian battlefield, they still knew the general course of the battle. The Wehrmacht concentrated more than 500,000 troops in the two military regions and directly crushed the entire Japanese front in Southeast Asia.

From Myitkyina to Annam. The Wehrmacht launched a series of offensives that tore apart the entire Southeast Asian front of the Japanese army in a matter of months. At the same time, they also launched the Philippine lurking troops to take the Philippines in one fell swoop.

He then used the arrogance of the Japanese Navy to lure them into launching the Battle of Manila Bay. In this battle, they completely inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese naval fleet. Due to the lack of resources, this trauma led to the Japanese Navy being temporarily recuperated.

Tukhachevsky, Montgomery and others knew in their hearts that under this superiority, the Wehrmacht could completely annihilate Sugiyamamoto's Southern Army. Even if you can't wipe them all out. At the very least, it can be severely injured. It will not lead to the evacuation of more than 100,000 people without blocking.

Moreover, the governments that quickly formed after the occupation of Southeast Asia by the IDF and the pro-Japanese factions that were purged in large numbers also testify to the covert control of Southeast Asia by the IDF.

Under these circumstances, it is unlikely that the Wehrmacht was not aware of the Japanese withdrawal at all. Nor can it be impossible to stop it. After Sugiyama evacuated, they either stayed in India and other places and waited to be pursued by the Wehrmacht, or they went to the Soviet Union to join the Japanese Expeditionary Force and fought desperately to survive in the Soviet Union.

The only explanation for this situation is that the IDF deliberately did so. The benefits of doing so for the Wehrmacht are clear. As early as when China announced its entry into the circle of allies, they had already promised to enter the Soviet theater to assist the allies in the war after the end of the Southeast Asian campaign.

And now on the most important battlefield of the Soviet Allied Army, the German army has gathered more than 1.5 million elite troops. The Soviets, Britain, and the United States suffered heavy losses on this position, and their heads were broken and bleeding.

Obviously, the Wehrmacht was reluctant to touch the mold. But he promised to enter the Soviet battlefield. In this case, Sugiyama and his southern army became the best excuse for him to divert his attention.

More than 150,000 Japanese troops, too much, too little. Now the Allies are trying their best to deal with the German army on the opposite side, and there is no time to separate. This 150,000-strong Japanese army formed a certain threat on the flank.

Under these circumstances, even if the Allies were no longer willing to do so, they could only ask the Wehrmacht troops to come and stop the Japanese troops. With this blockade, the Wehrmacht would be able to prevent the loss of its main forces on the most brutal battlefield in Moscow......

"Three cannons~ Your hands are really dark...... "Lin Sen, the imperial capital of China and chairman of the coalition government, came to visit the son of the commander-in-chief's newborn. The three artillery, who listened to the chat while analyzing why he deliberately let go of Sugiyama Moto's Southern Army, couldn't help pinching his beard and eyebrows.

"My name is black?! Those white-skinned pigs burned and looted on our land back then, so it's not dark?! I'm kind of that! Master Pao pursed his lips and hugged his grandson with a smile.
