Chapter 2259 The Troops Sent to Death

After Yamamoto heard his staff officer's report, he was also stunned for a moment, he did not calculate that the British side would sell weapons and ammunition to the Chinese side.

"Yaga!" Yamamoto was angry and scolded directly!

"Your Excellency, now that the Chinese side has received supplies from the British side, and once we withdraw from South Australia, those weapons and food will be handed over to the Chinese, and the pressure on their logistics line will be very small in the future, which is not a good thing for our army and navy!" A staff officer said to Yamamoto.

"I know!" Yamamoto stood there and said gloomily.

"Commander, I think we should do our best to deal with those Chinese aircraft carriers, and then let our navy participate in the battle, so that the coastal cities, and, according to what we know, the British food and weapons are in the coastal cities,

If we can take it, it will be very advantageous for us in Japan, and now, we must take those cities before the airports are repaired on the Chinese side! Another senior staff officer said. Yamamoto heard it, but still didn't speak.

"Commander!" The person next to him reminded him when he didn't speak.

"Well, send a telegram to General Eisenhower in the United States, telling them that the Chinese side can get a lot of supplies on the British side, and if we don't take the Chinese aircraft carrier, then we Japan won't be able to hold out for long on the Australian side, and I hope they can attack as much as possible!" When Yamamoto heard this, he immediately began to order.

"Yes!" The staff officer said immediately.

"Is there any intelligence that the Chinese side is attacking now, and how many troops are preparing to rush to the aid of Kalgoorlie on the Chinese side now?" Yamamoto asked, looking at his staff officers.

"Not yet, we only found a Chinese regiment, and one of our wings simply can't stop the attack of a Chinese armored regiment! We don't know about other troops, and we don't have any information about other things. I don't know how many troops are coming from the Chinese side! An intelligence staff officer said in a deep voice after hearing Yamamoto's question.

"Yaga!" Yamamoto heard it and cursed, while the other staff officers all lowered their heads,

In the past, the troops of a Chinese division were not necessarily able to resist the attack of a Japanese wing, but now that Japan's weapons and equipment have been strengthened, but. Even a Chinese armored regiment can't resist, which shows how fast the equipment on the Chinese side is developing!

"Try to find out how many troops the Chinese side has put into Kalgoorlie, and! The order is that the troops now in Kalgoorlie are not allowed to retreat, and must hold back the troops on the Chinese side for more than 10 days, and that our troops in the rest of the country should speed up their offensive and occupy those cities as much as possible, and we must do so before the Chinese take control of South Australia. Get enough supplies! Yamamoto commanded again.

"Hey! But in this way, the risk we face is very large, once the Chinese side of the troops are too much, then. We're in Kalgoorlie, and we're retreating here from other places, more than 30,000 people combined, and we're probably going to be wiped out! And as soon as the Chinese troops broke through our line of defense. Then, the troops that we are attacking in the rear are also very dangerous. Your Excellency, Prime Minister, it would be better for us to take a more prudent approach! A lieutenant general chief of staff looked at Yamamoto and said.

"Now we have no choice, if China gets those supplies, it will be a disaster for us, we can't let China get those supplies, so now we hurry up the time to attack, I would rather let the British burn those weapons than let the Chinese get them!"

Although we can't get it, if the Chinese side can't get it, the logistical pressure on them is very high, and we still have a chance! Yamamoto said resolutely as he looked at the chief of staff.

"Hey, I see!" The lieutenant general's chief of staff, hearing this, first bowed his head, then turned around and went to arrange.

"Hmph, if you want to destroy us, it's so simple there, Hu Hao, I'm stunned, what you think is too simple!" Yamamoto snorted to himself.

At this time, the division commander of Kalgoorlie was originally with other troops and was ready to continue to retreat, although he was only a division commander, but the troops withdrawn from Perth City were all under his management, so now he has more than 30,000 people in his hands!

"Report, telegram from the headquarters!" A communications soldier came to the division commander and handed him a telegram.

"A telegram from the headquarters?" The division commander heard this, frowned, and then unfolded the telegram and read it.

"Yaga, is this to send us to death?" When the division commander saw it, he scolded them directly, and ordered them to defend on the spot, and the troops of the Chinese attack for more than 10 days, let the troops in other places continue to attack those British cities! As soon as he finished speaking, several other brigade commanders looked at him puzzled.

"Yaga, why us!" While the division commander was scolding, he sent the telegram to one of the brigade commanders.

"Nani, defend in place?" When the brigade commanders heard this, their faces immediately changed, they were completely frightened by this order, and they never dreamed that the headquarters would issue them such an order!

"Xiaozhujun, what should we do now, do we want to send a telegram to the headquarters, if we defend the place, it is possible that the whole army will be wiped out, and the troops behind the Chinese side will definitely follow!" A brigade commander looked at the division commander and said.

"I know, but no, this is an order issued by His Excellency the Prime Minister, and we can only carry it out! Damn, why us! The division commander Kotake Ichiro said depressedly, and when the others heard it, they all sighed in their hearts, this order was sent by the prime minister, and they didn't dare not carry it out at all!

"Xiao Zhujun, since this is the case, then let's start arranging, now it is about 5 kilometers away from the previous 117 Brigade, let's arrange a second line of defense nearby, just so that the 117 Brigade can buy us more time, we can repair the defensive position!" One of the brigade commanders built yƬ road.

"Yes, Your Excellency Division Commander, now we can only do our best to repair the fortifications. Once the armored forces on the Chinese side come, then we just want to hide and have nowhere to hide! Another brigade commander also said.

"Let's have a meeting and start arranging the line of defense, since the anger is already like this, we have no other choice but to do this!" Kotake Ichiro looked at them and said.

"Yes! I hope their air force won't come so soon, if their air force does, we may not be able to hold out for ten days! Said one of the brigade commanders.

The armored regiment in China was advancing rapidly, and when they reached the periphery of Kalgoorlie, they saw that the British in Kalgoorlie in the distance were all looking at this side with weapons from afar.

"Wave our flag and let them know that it's our Chinese army coming!" The regimental commander said to his communications corps when he saw the Englishmen in the distance with their guns and looked at this side with their guns.

Soon, the armored one at the front immediately raised the Chinese five-star red flag. The five-star red flag is driven by the high-speed driving of the tank below, fluttering in the wind!

"It is the flag of China, is it possible that the Chinese army has come to our side to reinforce it?" At this time, in the city of Kalgoorlie, a British major held a telescope and watched the tank in the distance maneuver forward quickly, and his heart was quite strange.

Before, when the Japanese devils who attacked Kalgoorlie suddenly retreated, they were very surprised, and they didn't know why those Japanese troops were retreating! Now seeing the Chinese army coming, they can't believe their eyes!

"It's the Chinese army! Come on, change into a salute and welcome the Chinese army! At this time, one of the brigade commanders in Kalgoorlie, who is also the supreme commander here, shouted to his staff officers.

"Yes!" ,

Soon, from inside the city of Kalgoorlie, a roaring shelling was heard.

"What do you mean! Fire, hit us? "The heavy machine gunners on top of the tank could hear the distant shelling.

"It's the sound of a salute! Attention all the tanks, the target, the hill in front of us on the left, shoot one shot, like those soldiers in the city! "The regiment commander understood that this was Britain welcoming his country's army over, and he couldn't help but return the British salute, so he immediately ordered his tank troops to start saluting back!

"The first battalion is ready!"

"The second battalion is ready!"

"The three battalions are ready!" Several battalion commanders immediately reported.

"Put!"

"Boom, boom, boom!"

As soon as the regimental commander's words fell, all 70 Type 41 main battle tanks of the armored regiment opened fire. Immediately, there was an explosion on the mountain bag on the left, and there was the smoke of the explosion!

"Oh!" Soon, the British in Kalgoorlie City cheered when they saw the Chinese salute in return, and they knew that they had really been saved, and the Japanese troops would not dare to attack them!

And the commander had been observing the Englishmen in the city.

"You are lucky, back then, there were soldiers from your country in Shanghai, but when you saw us being beaten by the Japanese, not only did you not help, but also sold strategic materials to them! Ay!

We're for those who rise, or else, save you guys! Damn! The regimental commander put down the telescope as he spoke, and he didn't want to look at it!

"Commander, don't think so much, it's over!" At this time, on the radio, a battalion commander persuaded him.

"No, can you miss it? In our company, in the battle of Songhu, in just one day, there were 7 people left, and all the officers were sacrificed! Damn, I'm the only one left in our class! The regiment commander was on the radio and said in a depressed mood! (To be continued......) R1292
