Chapter 1096: Plans to go north

Qiao Youhua and Zuo Quan couldn't help but be taken aback when they heard this, reached out and took the message from Wan Ying'er, read it again, and handed it to Zuo Quan, who was full of anxiety on the side.

"Which one is this singing, little devil? At this juncture, do you still plan to open up the Pacific theater? Tired of living? As a time-traveler who is familiar with history, Qiao Youhua couldn't help but speculate secretly in his heart.

At present, it can be said that more than 780 percent of the land forces of the invading Japanese army have been disabled by themselves, and the rest can only rely on the strength of their navy and air force to bully and bully the poorly equipped and low-combat strength of the national army in the coastal areas south of the Yangtze River and South China, where the water network is dense.

Of course, the low combat power of the national army is relative to the Dragon's Tooth Corps.

At this time, the Dragon's Tooth Corps can basically be called a semi-mechanized army, even if the Little Devil Army was in its heyday a few years ago, it can't be compared, let alone the Central Army.

And just like that, it is really unexpected that the Japanese devils even went to the attention of the Southeast Asian colonies.

Britain, France, and the Netherlands, the traditional European powers, are now being beaten all over the ground by the German army, and they don't have time to take care of themselves, but the world's largest power, in the next few decades or even longer, the navy, land and air force will dominate the United States of America's Pacific Jiang Dan, but it is cruising in the Pacific Ocean with a tiger's eye.

If there is no conspiracy in this, then the little devil must be crazy.

Benefiting from its unique geographical environment and historical opportunities, US imperialism has developed its war potential into the world's number one special power, not to mention the fact that Germany and the Soviet Union are now surprisingly large and almost invincible in Europe and Asia.

However, once it faces the United States, I am afraid that only if the Soviet Union and Germany become one, it is possible to fight with it, and the odds of victory are still five or five.

If it weren't a last resort, Qiao Youhua wouldn't even want to fight the Americans at this time, after all, the two sides are not of the same magnitude now.

Zuo Quan is not a traverser, and his knowledge of the United States is at most through some newspapers and other channels, and the weakness is negligible, so he will not think about it in this way.

Instead, he wondered: "What is the Japanese imperialist attack on the French Indochina colonies for a sudden attack?" ”

Qiao Youhua thought for a while and said: "It's nothing more than two, one is that in order to divert domestic contradictions, the current Japanese army urgently needs a big victory to give an explanation to its domestic people and boost the morale of the stable army."

Second, in order to plunder strategic resources such as rubber and oil in Southeast Asia. ”

"Is there a lot of oil and rubber in Southeast Asia?" Zuo Quan didn't know much about the situation and asked.

Qiao Youhua nodded and said: "Yes, but the French Indochina colony that the devil attacked this time basically only has other materials such as rubber and grain, and the oil and gas resources are controlled in Dutch East Indochina, that is, the Indonesian archipelago, the Malaysian archipelago, Brunei, and Sumatra." In other words, if the devils want to get oil in Southeast Asia, it is not enough to attack the colonies of the French, but also to attack the colonies of the Dutch and British.

And now the Dutch themselves are difficult to protect themselves in the European battlefield, and they have almost been de facto wiped out by the Germans, and the Dutch East Indies has actually become the Yankees' sphere of influence, and if the Japanese army wants to get involved, it will inevitably clash with the American army. ”

In any case, Qiao Youhua understands that at this stage, China's armed strength is still very weak in general, and as a traverser, he understands that even though he knows all the world's important oil producing areas, everything is empty talk until there is no strong enough navy and air force.

Therefore, the most pressing task at the moment is to do everything possible to build up its own industrial and military basic industries, and with China's huge potential, it will develop rapidly, rise in the cracks of war, and when the time is ripe, it will not only recover the South China Sea, Taiwan, and Gulf Islands, but also turn the entire Pacific Ocean into the backyard of the Chinese Navy and Air Force.

Garrisons in the Japanese archipelago, the Goryeo Peninsula, and the Indochina Peninsula were all necessary. Guam and the Hawaiian Islands will also become China's overseas territories.

The bases of the Chinese army will be located all over the world.

Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, now Qiao Youhua is eager for the little devils to go to war with the Yankees, once they go to war, the United States will definitely cut off the export supply of all strategic materials to Japan, and the little devils will not be able to jump for long at that time.

Moreover, the Yankees will also be dragged into the quagmire of war because of this, which is a rare good opportunity for the Dragon Tooth Corps, for the Eighth Route Army and even for the whole of China.

Zuo Quan didn't know what Qiao Youhua was thinking, and asked, "Then should we take some action?" ”

"If the Japanese capture the Indochina Peninsula, then it will be connected with South China, and it will be a great threat to Chairman Chiang, and the headache is Chongqing, so we don't need to worry, in this case, immediately ask the head of the headquarters for instructions, and we will immediately march into the Goryeo Peninsula, and first expel the devil's army from the Northeast Asian continent, and then make plans!" Qiao Youhua said.

"Then we're not going to fight south?" Left Authority.

"At this time and then, if Northeast China and North China are still in the hands of the enemy, then once the Japanese devils capture the Indochina Peninsula and then attack Burma, they may completely block the communication between China and the outside world. What else do we have to worry about? The head of the headquarters will not fail to understand this with great foresight. Expelling the Japanese army from the Northeast Asian Peninsula is a kind of security guarantee for us to build Northeast China into an industrial base. Qiao Youhua said.

"Okay, I'll go and call the headquarters for instructions." Zuo Quan nodded, and then took the order to leave.

Qiao Youhua continued to draw his designs.

On the Indochina Peninsula, 50,000 Japanese troops, covered by the powerful ground-air fire of their naval fleet, swept through Vietnam in less than a week, and the French army was crushed and retreated to Cambodia and Laos, and even to the colonies of the allies in Burma.

By this time, the French army had already been completely annihilated by the German army, and de Gaulle, the former deputy secretary of defense in Petain's cabinet, went into exile in England and formed a government-in-exile, but the French colonies and their overseas territories were subordinated to the pro-German Vichy government supported by the Germans.

However, the armies and officials of these overseas colonies were only superficially obedient, but their hearts were inclined to the British and American allies, so the Japanese army landed, and the French army resisted, but they were the opponents of the Japanese army after a long battle.

The little devil can't beat the Dragon's Tooth Corps, it's still very easy to fight these French young master soldiers who have enjoyed themselves for a long time, easily defeat the French army's resistance, and land smoothly, and then push all the way, the French have done a lot of evil in the Vietnamese colony, so the Japanese army is under the banner of liberating the local aborigines, which makes the local aborigines when the French and Japanese armies are fighting, they have risen up to attack the French army, help the Japanese army transport supplies, and serve as guides.

This put the French army in an even more disadvantageous position, and it is not surprising that it was quickly defeated.
