On June 8, a week after Emperor Sakura succeeded to the throne, Sakura appointed Ishihara Waner as the commander of the Kwantung Army on the recommendation of the Toei Governor's Office, and went to the northeast to reorganize the Kwantung Army.

After Ishihara arrived in Shenyang (renamed in Mukden) on a special plane arranged by the Governor's Office, he immediately arrested Masatao Terada, the chief offender of the Kwantung Army's disobedience, on charges of treason and escorted him back to China to be tried by a military court. And the commanders of all divisions and regiments continued to lead the troops in order to make up for their mistakes.

The remaining units of the Kwantung Army were unified into 17 divisions, retaining the number of the original Kwantung Army's first-class Japanese divisions. Ishihara Wan'er was ordered by Concubine Sakura to report to Ye Weixun, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese battlefield, and officially led the Kwantung Army to join the ranks of the allies. After the award ceremony in Chang'an, Ye Weixun officially replaced Wang Yizhe as the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in the Chinese Battlefield.

It is said that the great changes in these days have not yet turned their minds to the allied generals such as Chen Shukang and Yu Xuezhong. How did an enemy who was supposed to fight to the death become an ally in a twist? Even if the new emperor of Japan becomes His Majesty's concubine, these devils are too undisciplined, right? Isn't it clamoring to fight the Allies to the death?

What's even more unpopular is the puppet Manchurian Emperor Kant (Puyi) in Xinjing (Changchun), what else is this messing with? The Japanese emperor has become the daughter-in-law of the Han Emperor, so what does the emperor of the Japanese have to call the Han Emperor? After Ishihara arrived at the Beiling airfield, the Japanese in Xinjing rushed to Shenyang to report to the new commander of the Kwantung Army. No one cared about the emperor left here, and Pu Yi was about to call his old and young people over to discuss whether they also needed to go to Shenyang to express their feelings, when a few loyal guards who had not escaped ran in and shouted: "The Han army has entered the city!" ”

The first to enter Changchun was Huo Lu's First Guard Division, but Master Huo really didn't have time to pay attention to the former Qing Emperor. The 1st Guards Division entered the city purely by passing by, and his goal was the grassland of Hulunbuir, the kingdom of pasture and the birthplace of Genghis Khan.

Of course, this ace armored unit of the Han Empire did not go to the prairie to drink horses and reins. In Hailar, near Hulunbuir City, there is a military fortress built by the Kwantung Army, which is one of the seventeen fortresses on the northeast border, and it is also one of the two largest fortresses along with Dongning Fortress.

After Ishihara began to reorganize the Kwantung Army, the Japanese troops in the various fortresses were ordered to stay behind and wait for the transfer of positions to the rest of the Allied forces, but only the westernmost fortress of Hailar could not be reached. Intelligence shows that the 80th Mixed Brigade of the Mongolian Xinjiang Garrison Army, which is subordinate to the Kwantung Army, was secretly in contact with the Transbaikal Military District of Soviet Russia when Masao Terada announced that he would resist to the end. Its commander, Major General Nomura Noborijiang, received a large amount of money from the KGB and was ready to hand over the fortress to the Soviet troops.

Ishihara was furious when he heard this, why did the Kwantung Army repeatedly have scandals? Even the mutiny and defection to the enemy appeared, and he immediately asked the commander-in-chief, General Ye Weixun, for instructions, and asked to personally lead the elite division of the Kwantung Army to Hulunbuir to quell the rebellion!

Ye Weixun smiled and waved his hand, "General Ishihara, our intelligence department has long been aware of the conspiracy of the big noses, you might as well watch it, and see what kind of drama those greedy guys in Soviet Russia can perform?" ”

The commander-in-chief did not say a word clearly: If the Soviet army is not allowed to enter our northeastern border, how can there be an excuse to declare war on the Soviet Union?

On June 12, the ambassador of the Han Empire to the Soviet Union submitted a letter of protest to Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov, solemnly affirming that the Hailar fortress in China and Mongolia was under the control of the Allies, and demanded that the Soviet troops must withdraw from the Chinese territory or bear the consequences.

As it turned out, the protest was not even a fart, and Stalin was busy consolidating newly occupied territory such as Poland and Estonia, as well as the movements of the German army, so he didn't bother to pay attention to the protests in China. However, he ignored that on the outer skin of the folder of the protest letter, it was not the blue sky and white sun in Chongqing, nor the red flag symbol of Yan'an, but the golden dragon and rain - the national emblem of the Han Empire.

In later generations, many scholars are keen to entangle this paragraph, thinking that it is impossible for Stalin to ignore the protest of the Han Empire, although both the Han and China use Chinese characters, but the big golden dragon logo on the cover is too obvious, and the text of the protest book also has the signature of Wilson, the foreign minister of the Han Empire! But in fact, Stalin just ignored it, he still thought that it was a protest letter sent by the weak China, and when Mongolia became independent, there were too many protest letters in Chongqing, and he threw it aside without looking at it carefully. In the opinion of Big Nose, no amount of protest from the sheep at the feet of the lion is useful?

This is a historical mystery, speculation and inference, but no one has ever believed that Stalin deliberately caused the war between the Soviet Union and Han. After the Allies took control of Northeast China, the Soviet Union was already quite unfavorable in terms of strategic situation, and was surrounded by the two major military groups in Europe and Asia.

Greed is the biggest source of evil, Soviet Russia took advantage of the European war in full swing, the German army on the Western Front and Britain and France had no time to look east, sent troops to annex the three Baltic countries, as well as cede Finland and other small brother countries, and also with the German army in Poland to deal with each other, the great appetite of the Russians finally angered the complacent German Führer, and the "Barbarossa" to guide the offensive on the Eastern Front was put on the agenda of the German General Staff, and it was almost carried out for a time.

However, because of the import of a large number of ghost fighters and the introduction of the D-4 production line, the Luftwaffe quickly regained its disadvantage in the air battle of the British Channel, and the frequent battles also gave birth to a large number of air force aces, such as the black devil Hartmann, the butcher killer Kittel, the sharpshooter Rudolfler, and the king of kings, Günter Lahr, etc., who quickly surpassed the records held by the aces of the Han Royal Air Force.

The Americans organized the Flying Eagle Squadron, claiming to be volunteers in their own name, and they flew fighter planes codenamed Thunderbolt to join the confrontation with the ghosts. F-84 Thunderbolt is a single-seat single-engine fighter modeled by the American MacDonald company based on the Dahan J36 swept wing dragon, and it is claimed that the maximum speed can reach 944 kilometers per hour.

In the skies over the English Channel, the Thunderbolt had a slight advantage over the Ghosts of heavy fighters in terms of speed and agility, and the firepower of six Coaxial Machine Guns and two cannons was also quite ferocious, and the Luftwaffe did not fall behind with the large number of Ghosts and the yellow-eyed Penguin air-to-air missiles.

Although the Luftwaffe had a certain advantage, Britain, with the support of the United States, the number of fighters was increasing and increasing, and the pilots of the defeated countries in Europe were concentrated in England, and the British Air Force was still in combat strength.

It was the German Navy that really influenced Hitler. On May 27, the battleship Bismarck, the symbol of the German Navy, was sunk by the Royal Navy in the Danish Strait, and although the Luftwaffe then bombed the British naval fleet, the sinking of the battleship Bismarck was irreparable for the German Navy.

The outcome of the Battle of the Danish Channel completely shook Hitler's confidence in landing in Britain, and the mustache once stood on the coast of Calais in France, lamenting that his dream of unifying Europe was actually cut off by this strait only 33 kilometers wide.

The Italian Navy was even beaten to by the British Mediterranean Squadron in the Mediterranean, except for the Battle of Crete, when the Mediterranean Squadron was attacked by the Luftwaffe and the Italian Navy and lost several destroyers, the Italian Navy, which was full of confidence before the war, could be said to have gained nothing.

"Why does Germany always choose the wrong ally?" For Italy's incompetence, the mustache has lost his temper, the Mediterranean Navy is not good, the North African Army is not good, and the Italians don't seem to be going to do anything else except eat macaroni and play football.

"We must ally with the Great Han, the great German army can be invincible on land and in the air, but we need allies at sea, and we need the ship-and-air carrier battle group of the Han Empire!" At the highest-level Joint Chiefs of Staff meeting in Berlin, Hitler made a rare remark that "we need allies."

The excellent performance of the British aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal in the Danish Strait stimulated the Führer. The Führer did not forget that the British Mediterranean Fleet, which had beaten the Italian Navy to, was still beaten in the South Pacific a few years ago, when the Han Empire had not yet been founded, and the Han Emperor Zhongyi was just a "small warlord" on Kangaroo Island. And now, the best aircraft carrier in the world is the Han Empire, well, the United States is not bad, "But the Yankees are as hateful mongrels as the British!" ”

Without the support of the Americans, "the great German Army would have landed in England long ago!" ”

"Inform me Ribbentrop that as long as the aircraft carriers of the Han Kingdom can bomb the British fleet to the bottom of the sea, we can all agree to whatever the Han Emperor needs!"

On June 22, 1941, Adolf Hitler, the head of the Third German Reich, Benito Mussolini, the head of Italy, and the Han Emperor Zhongyi signed the Treaty of the Triple Alliance of Han, Germany and Italy at the Shenwu Hall of Weiyang Palace, establishing the Iron Alliance.

Three days later, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Romania and other countries in Europe announced the Iron and Steel Alliance, and then the Kingdom of Judah, the Islamic Kingdom of Morocco, the Sultan of Sulu, Japan and other countries in the Asia-Pacific region also joined one after another, and the number of countries in the Iron and Steel Alliance reached 16.

The establishment of the Iron Alliance was tantamount to a bolt from the blue for Britain, and with the addition of the Han Navy, Churchill could count down the time for Britain's demise; As far as the United States, the Soviet Union, and other big countries sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and are ready to make profits, Germany's excessive strength is not what they want to see. In particular, the Han state, which has exclusive interests in the Asia-Pacific region, whether it is the South China Sea and the Indochina Peninsula and the United States, or the Far East and the Soviet Union, the disputes in the strategic sense are almost irreconcilable.

Sitting back and watching the alliance between China and Germany was almost like a disaster for Roosevelt and Stalin. In line with the principle that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, no one mentioned the matter of guarding against the red tide, and the United States and the Soviet Union immediately began to look at each other, and held a meeting in Cape Town, South Africa, in July, at which Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union decided to continue the "Triple Entente" of victory in the First World War, except that the United States replaced the defeated France, and issued the "Cape Town Joint Declaration", declaring that the three countries would unite to resist all unjust acts of aggression. This declaration was echoed by the government-in-exile of many defeated countries, and a number of Commonwealth countries and their traditional allies announced their accession to the Treaty.

The Cape Town Joint Declaration meant the formal establishment of a second military bloc after the Iron Alliance, and the Second World War would enter a new phase in which more countries participated and the battlefield was more extensive.
