Chapter 231: Crossing the River and Demolishing the Bridge

The General Staff's plan for the Nanyang Fourth Army and the Dongying Third Army to reinforce Africa made Zhong Yi a little uneasy, when did he start to have so many more troops under his command?

"Being an emperor also requires talent, obviously we are still good!" Hearing that even Dongying had formed three legions, His Majesty felt a sense of accomplishment.

The formation of the Third Army was not Japan, but Korea. When the six Japanese generals surrendered, the Korean governor Nanjiro was among them. To say that Japan has ruled Korea for 30 years, it has also done a lot of good things. Thousands of primary schools have been built, resulting in a significant increase in the literacy rate of North Koreans. Railways and hospitals were built, and the population grew from 13 million to more than 25 million.

"Twenty-five million?" Don't say you don't know, but be shocked when you say it. The fact that there are more than 25 million people on the small Korean Peninsula is really a great surprise to Your Majesty. The entire South China Continent has a population of just over 40 million, of which 30 million are Han Chinese.

"Nima, a small North Korea is similar to the Han people of our entire empire. North Korea, with so many people, only one legion, how can it be done? How can you make an army of a million! And Japan, when it surrendered, there were still millions of troops, why did you leave so many men? The whole country must be informed that the Dongying Governor's Office will organize at least two million more troops. Africa is so big, and it can't be done without an army. ”

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

"Huh?"

Jiang Yunzhi called out a few times before summoning His Majesty who was too void in the fugue. Everyone else is secretly wondering: Your Majesty is thinking about something good?

The two imperial concubines of Jinhua Hall are pregnant, isn't it that Your Majesty is worried about which celebrity you are thinking about?

"Your Majesty, look at the next phase of the battle plan for Africa......

"No, you don't! Yunzhi, I plan you to do it, I only ask to solve the British army in Africa and take the Suez Canal as soon as possible! Strive for next year, we want to end the war against the British! "Turning his senses from the resentment of the empire's underpopulation, His Majesty immediately returned to normalcy.

Several bigwigs looked at each other, and they all understood the meaning in each other's eyes: It will take more than a year to solve the empire where the sun never sets, and Your Majesty's appetite is so big!

"By the way, Yunzhi, I have a suggestion for you, I think there is still too little cooperation between our various services. Multi-service cooperation and three-dimensional warfare are not just talking, for example, the Suez Canal is not necessarily pushed over step by step. Do you have to take Cairo to control the canal? I think the British are entirely focused on the Egyptian-Libyan border, and then on the Gulf of Suez. And in fact, on the canal line, there are not too many defenders. We can send elite troops to surprise the various points along the canal, then send airborne troops and air cavalry divisions to support, and then it is up to you to decide whether to transport troops by sea or rush to cross the canal! Hey? What's wrong with all of you? ”

His Majesty said the most common way of joint operations in his previous life, but he saw that everyone's eyes widened.

Jiang Hei's face gave a thumbs up again, "Your Majesty, high!" It's really high! ”

The last four words were spoken in unison by a group of people......

It's not that Zhong Yi's suggestion is clever, it's just that this kind of joint operation method is still unthinkable in this era. Especially in the "Mercury" plan for the German paratroopers to be airborne on Crete, after a large number of paratroopers were sacrificed, the mustache even ordered the Germans not to allow the massive use of paratroopers in subsequent battles.

But there is no doubt that in the battle of landing on Honshu Island, the imperial army accumulated a lot of experience in paratrooper combat, especially the battle of the airborne Haneda airfield, which directly contributed to the surrender of the Japanese army.

Compared with the German paratroopers, the airborne corps of the Royal Guards Corps has a significant advantage in firepower, not to mention the flat desert type of Egypt, which is more suitable for airborne.

Jiang Yunzhi has already planned another large-scale airborne operation! After the expansion of the Guards, the army aviation unit has been organized into three corps, and the airborne division has also had six! Coupled with the previous airborne troops of the devils on the Dongying side, it is completely possible to carry out a large-scale campaign based on airborne.

……

The battle of the Yanzhou Army in the Gulf region did not go well, and the entire imperial army underestimated the 17th Group Army of the British and Indian Army, which was mainly composed of A-3 soldiers.

Under the command of the British officers, the Asan did not even need steel helmets, and dared to launch a frantic charge with a white cloth wrapped around their heads, and a fierce tug-of-war was launched in Najaf for a time.

Lieutenant General Mu Xingchen, commander of the Yanzhou Army, expressed his doubts that with such brave soldiers, how could a country as big as India be willingly ruled by the British for so many years?

After more than a month of hard fighting, close to New Year's Day, the Yanzhou army reluctantly pushed the front to the vicinity of Baghdad, and according to the order of Weiyang Palace, Lieutenant General Mu Xingchen picked up Gerani, who had failed in the coup d'Γ©tat and was exiled in Iran, and helped him organize an Iraqi army. Gallani and others then declared allegiance to King Fersa II and the Iraqi royal family in Basra, swore to drive out the British, and fought for Iraq's independence!

This move brought a lot of convenience to the Yanzhou army's operations in Iraq, and the Han army has always been very good in terms of military discipline, even in the occupation, it has always emphasized fair trade. Therefore, many Iraqis began to support the Yanzhou Army and the so-called Iraqi Free Army, and even many Iraqi businessmen relied on the logistics and supplies of the Yanzhou Army to do business, which made most Iraqis in the liberated areas think that the Han Army was sent by the true God to help Iraq. In their daily prayers, in addition to thanking the true God, they also added the phrase "Thank you to the Emperor Han!" ”

However, on the battlefield, the stubborn resistance of the British and Indian troops blocked the Yanzhou army south of Baghdad. This delayed the Han army's plan to open up the two river valleys and establish a land passage for the liberation of Syria, Jordan and Palestine.

In another battlefield, the Jiaozhou army led by Wang Yizhe also encountered many troubles.

After completing their assembly on Natuna Island, they chose to land at Binh Tai and Ha Long Bay at the mouth of the Red River in order to first open up northern Vietnam, which borders China.

The army of the Free French government (exiled in Britain) was not strong-willed, and the battle on the beach ended quickly, and the Han army named after Jiaozhou was also regarded as the "ancestral homeland", Vietnam and other countries, in the ancient Han Dynasty, all belonged to Jiaozhou, the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

But then, Wang Yizhe and the Jiaozhou Army encountered kraft candy resistance from the Vietnamese colonial army, and in the Red River Delta, which is less than three meters above sea level, swamps and depressions everywhere make the transportation of heavy equipment a big problem, and tanks may climb the nest at any time.

Wang Yizhe also admitted that this was his mistake. As for the choice of the landing site, it was too hasty to achieve quick success, and the closest site to Hanoi was chosen, without sufficient consideration of other conditions.

But the bigger trouble was that the Vietnamese were not friendly to the Han army, and the Vietnamese army that supported the "Emperor Bao" carried out a variety of raids and harassment warfare against the Jiaozhou army.

The Jiaozhou army paid heavy casualties, and the Vietnamese army made full use of the advantages of the terrain and topography, and in the farmland, in the dense forest, in the mountains, and behind the houses, it seemed that there were Vietnamese everywhere to shoot coldly. And when the Jiaozhou army sent a search team, all they could find were some ragged women and children.

After several attacks, they finally found out that it was the seemingly poor women and children who shot coldly. The angry soldiers retaliated, and many villages on the plains near Baan An Nhence were set on fire by the Bingzhou army, which of course provoked the Vietnamese to revolt.

On New Year's Day, the Bingzhou army finally conquered Hanoi, an important town in northern Vietnam, which had long been bombed into ruins. In total, the Air Force dropped 40,000 tons of bombs on Hanoi, which was even more than the bombing of Tokyo.

And in order to rent an airport on China's Hainan Island and bomb Vietnam, there was a little skirmish between the empire and the chairman.

Originally, the General Staff of the Imperial Army greeted Nanjing in accordance with normal procedures and wanted to lease the Ledong Airport on Hainan Island, which was built when the Japanese attacked Hainan Island and prepared to use Hainan Island as a springboard to attack the South Seas. Later, because the Han Dynasty declared war on Japan, it attacked it first without waiting for Japan to come, and Ledong Airport was also abandoned.

However, the chairman of the committee firmly disagreed with Lend-Lease, and said that during the Chinese Civil War, he would not participate in the wars of other countries. For the war between the Han and Vietnamese, China remained neutral!

These seemingly high-sounding words immediately angered Zhong Yi, "When Nima resisted Japan, why didn't you say neutral? When you sent your daughter-in-law to Chang'an to engage in lady's diplomacy and make peace, why didn't you say neutrality? In the Chinese Civil War, the Han didn't plan to participate at all, at most he couldn't get used to you hooking up with Lao Mei and supporting Beipingdian equipment! ”

-- If you let the bald head hear this, I guess even my nose will be crooked. Even the aircraft carrier was sent, and it was still called a support point? At present, on the domestic battlefield in China, whether it is the air force or the navy, Nanjing is looking for food.

In the Huaihai Battle a year ago, the Nanjing army was defeated in Xuzhou, and hundreds of thousands of elites said that they would be gone, if it wasn't for Xiao Zhuge not dropping the chain at a critical time and holding Xuzhou, the chairman would have to move the capital again. Perhaps, this time it will not matter if you go to Chongqing -- the Beiping People's Liberation Army has already surrounded Xiaogan and is approaching Wuhan!

"! Is this still a little bit of support? If there were more support, would the two field armies be able to directly take Nanjing? Don't borrow, don't borrow! If you have the ability, let the Han Emperor also start a war against me! ”

The bald head is completely broken and broken, and he doesn't even listen to the advice of Chen Cheng, who he trusts!

"Go to war, go to war! If it weren't for Aunt River Crab being too fierce, would he really think I wouldn't dare to touch him? "Your Majesty is also anxious.

In fact, the defeat of the chairman of the committee is not unjust at all, and the words on the second floor of the Nanjing Presidential Palace can be transmitted to the Han Emperor, and it is difficult to be undefeated! However, "Mou said, this is the last time to pass on information!" Before we rescued Zhang Hanqing, she refused to pass on any more information to me! Mu Yu hesitated for a moment, but still said a sentence of "plotting" on the intelligence. It seems that this is a bit of a misery for Wang Yizhe.

Sure enough, His Majesty was furious after hearing this! "His king Yizhe's war is unfavorable, how can I save it? Also, did she really think she could threaten me? If it weren't for ......, what would be the difficulty of destroying Nanjing? She thought that if she passed on a few words of Jiang Guangtou, she would be qualified to make irresponsible remarks with us? ”

......, Director Mu's dead face also flashed a hint of color, "Your Majesty, ...... like this"

"There's a fart!" Recently, the war has been a little bad in various places, and I haven't heard any good news for a while, and His Majesty's tone is obviously a little impatient.

"Ugh!" can also say foul language, proving that His Majesty is not really angry, Director Mu said "hehe" twice, "Let's treat 'Mou' like this, is it a bit suspicious of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?" ”
