Chapter 237: World War II in progress
Since Japan wants to take a ride on the Axis powers, the Republic of China cannot cheapen them in vain and ask them for treasure islands. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Japan of course didn't want to give, but as soon as the Republic of China threatened to let Jian Mingyue come to talk to them, they relented, so they had to grit their teeth and agree, but they couldn't give it in vain, and asked for an extra piece of territory in Southeast Asia that had not yet been defeated, and the two sides reached an agreement.
Immediately after the alliance between the two countries, they sent troops to Southeast Asia together. The Republic of China took the land route and attacked Vietnam, Burma, Thailand and other places, while Japan took the sea route and attacked the Philippines, Malaysia and other places. Historically, when Japan sent troops alone, it beat the British and Americans to the wolves, and now the two countries are even more powerful when they work together.
After Jian Mingyue's rectification, coupled with the equipment of German weapons, the army of the Republic of China has changed greatly, at least in terms of equipment, it is not weaker than the powers. Moreover, the commander-in-chief of this dispatch is Jian Mingyue, she is not one of those generals of the national army who still has to obey Lao Jiang's remote control, and she does not have a-stirring stick like Stilwell, so she is unstoppable all the way. In just three months, he occupied all the land of the Southeast Asian subcontinent and joined Japan across the Strait of Malacca. After a short rest, Jian Mingyue waved his army westward and attacked the hinterland of India.
Known as the jewel in the crown of the Queen of England, India is far less important than Southeast Asia, and has a very large number of troops. It's a pity that the British army here is still only a garrison force, and it has been peaceful for a long time, and its combat effectiveness is not strong. Under the command of Jian Mingyue and under the leadership of generals such as Sun Liren, Dai Anlan, and Liao Yaoxiang, the fighting spirit was high, but the British army was still defeated and lost, a small number of troops were annihilated, most of them were captured, and India fell into the hands of the Republic of China.
Just India is enough to cover the whole of Southeast Asia, but it is allocated in advance, and Japan can only attack those islands, and it can't say anything. But the greed of the little devil cannot be contained, and after occupying Malaysia, he has set his sights on Australia.
This time it invaded Southeast Asia, and Japan did not know whether it was because it was emboldened with the companion of the Republic of China, or because it had other considerations, so it did not attack Pearl Harbor first, but directly attacked Southeast Asia. In Southeast Asia, the United States has only one colony, the Philippines, with more than 20,000 troops stationed, and the commander is none other than MacArthur, who later became famous. Although the U.S. military was quite numerous, it was not prepared for war at all, and the deployment of troops was very scattered, coupled with the strong strength of the Japanese army, MacArthur was soon beaten and escaped with his wife and children on a submarine.
The Philippines was occupied, and the United States also had a reason to enter the war, and immediately sent its navy to Australia to prepare for a counteroffensive based in Australia. But before they could counterattack, the Japanese attacked first. The U.S. Navy was really inferior to the Japanese Navy in terms of quality, and it was beaten to the ground as soon as it came up, so Australia was also lost. At this point, there was no place for Westerners in the whole of Southeast Asia, and all of them were divided between the two countries.
At this time, Italy, an ally of the Axis powers, also sent troops to rob the colonies of Britain, France and the United States, and they sent troops to attack North Africa. Jian Mingyue was very greedy for the oil resources there, so she discussed with Germany to continue to attack West Asia and help Italy.
Unexpectedly, the mustache refused Jian Mingyue's request, and instead asked the Republic of China to turn around and attack the Soviet-United Nations, and fight with Germany. At the same time, Lao Jiang and others also believed that the Persian Gulf region was a desert and worthless. Moreover, it is too far away, it is not easy to control it, and it is very expensive to send troops to garrison it, so it is better to attack the Soviet-United Union according to the requirements of Germany, not only to recapture the actual occupied Mongolia, but also to recapture the land ceded by the Qing Dynasty, which is of great significance.
Jian Mingyue pondered, he couldn't be too eager, after all, the Persian Gulf was closer to Europe, and if he let the mustache realize that he valued it so much, he would definitely not let himself get it easily. Now there are still many places where the Republic of China needs to rely on Germany, and it can't turn its face with them yet, and there is still time, so let's put it aside for the time being, and go to fight the Soviet-United Nations first.
There are almost no online articles that cross over to the Republic of China that do not fight the Soviet-Union, the reason is that Lao Maozi has always acted domineeringly, and the position he occupies is condescending, and there are too many places bordering the Republic of China. There is such a neighboring country that no one in power can sleep. The only way to remove this danger is to snatch Siberia and drive the Soviet-Coalition back to Europe. Now is the time to seize Siberia, and Jian Mingyue does not want to miss it.
Handed over the military power of Southeast Asia to Li Zongren, who was old and heavy, Jian Mingyue returned to Nanjing by herself and began to form a large army for the Northern Expedition. The Republic of China began to prepare, but Germany grinded and did not fight the Soviet-Union, but attacked Britain first. The German navy, on the other hand, could not cross the narrow English Channel, so it could only bomb non-stop with aircraft. However, the bombing could not defeat the British, especially the current British Prime Minister, Churchill, who was known for his toughness, would never surrender even if it was difficult, and let Germany's attempt fail.
Since they could not defeat the British and could not cross the English Channel, the Germans had to turn their attention to the north and prepare to attack the Soviet-Union. However, by this time it was already the end of 1940, and when it was fully ready, it would be June 1941.
Jian Mingyue really thanked the flowers she was waiting for, which made her extremely resentful of the mustache, and she couldn't wait to fly to Germany, pulling his collar to make him start quickly. But when Germany really launched, she was not in a hurry, but waited for Germany and the Soviet Union to fight happily, so that the Soviet Union transferred a large part of the troops in the Far East to Europe, and then suddenly waved its troops north and broke into Siberia.
At this time, the Soviet-United League was neither easy to fight. They are said to be easy to fight because Stalin purged the army of most of the generals who could fight, and the rest were rubbish who could only shout slogans. It is difficult to fight because of the political movement for many years, which has made the lower-level soldiers become crazy people with extremely firm beliefs. However, Jian Mingyue will not be afraid of them, no matter how crazy the soldiers are, they will be given for nothing in front of machine guns and cannons, but they will take the initiative to die because they are too crazy.
The only trouble was that the commander of the Soviet army turned out to be Zhukov. He was a very clever military strategist, and with him, the battle against Siberia would be very troublesome. He would have been appreciated by Stalin for the Battle of Normenheim, promoted to general, first to Kiev as commander, and then to Moscow as chief of the General Staff. However, with Jian Mingyue, the Japanese did not fight the Battle of Normenhan, and Zhukov did not have the opportunity to show his talents, and remained in Siberia. But others don't know how powerful he is, how can Jian Mingyue not know? In order to relieve the trouble, Jian Mingyue did not hesitate to send two doppelgangers to assassinate Zhukov before the war began.
Since a doppelganger was sent to assassinate him, he couldn't kill just one Zhukov, and Jian Mingyue simply killed all the high-ranking officers of the Soviet Army who could be found. In this way, the Soviet army was completely disorganized, and when the national army came, it could only fight on its own, and then it was divided and surrounded, and annihilated one by one.
Jian Mingyue fought very smoothly, and the troops made great strides until they reached the Ural Mountains before stopping. At this time, the German army was being blocked under the city of Moscow. Jian Mingyue actually has the strength to go on the offensive, but the mustache doesn't dare to let them continue to fight, the key is that Jian Mingyue's record is too strong, if she is allowed to enter Europe, what if she doesn't leave? The mustache didn't dare to say that he could kick her out.
Germany doesn't let Jian Mingyue enter Europe, and Jian Mingyue doesn't want to go yet. The essence of the Soviet-Union was in Europe, and Stalin could have given up Siberia, but he would never have given up the European part. If he had to cross the Urals, Stalin would have to fight hard, Jian Mingyue was not interested in fighting with them, Siberia was already rich enough.
Since she did not enter Europe, Jian Mingyue turned to the elimination of the Soviet partisans who remained in Siberia. Although the guerrillas could not inflict much damage on the Nationalist army, it was quite annoying that there were always flies buzzing in their ears. And against the guerrillas, the methods of the little devils are still very useful. When the little devils occupied the northeast, they almost wiped out the entire army of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and when Okamura Ninji was the commander-in-chief of the North China Front, he also suffered huge losses in the Eighth Route Fight. Jian Mingyue can completely take the medicine according to the prescription and use it to deal with the Su-Lian people.
When the Republic of China was busy cleaning up the resistance forces in the occupied area and consolidating its rule, the Japanese were not idle, and after occupying Australia, they were afraid that the Americans would fight back, so they finally sent troops to attack Hawaii. Hawaii is a transit point in the Pacific Ocean, and if the United States wants to counterattack, it must start from the west coast of the United States and cross half of the Pacific Ocean. At such a distance, if nothing else, the fatigue of the soldiers alone was enough to reduce their chances of victory by two layers. Combined with other factors, it can be said that half of the losses were lost before the fight. So the United States must keep Hawaii at all costs.
The Americans stubbornly defended, and it was difficult for the Japanese to defeat them, and they fought repeatedly for a long time, but there was no result, and because of this, they also provoked a large number of reinforcements from the Americans. So the navies of the two countries fought again.
The Americans lost the last naval battle, and this time they still failed to win, but it also restrained most of the Japanese army's energy, and their plan to attack Hawaii was not realized. The Japanese army could not attack for a long time, and it was also exhausted, and it could only retreat first and accumulate strength for the next battle.
Taking advantage of the truce, the Americans desperately built ships and soon expanded the size of the navy several times. Because the Japanese army threatened the mainland of the United States, and Hawaii was also considered the mainland of the United States, this time the United States did not play the strategy of Europe first and then Asia, but changed to Asia first and then Europe, and after accumulating enough strength, it launched a counterattack against the Japanese army. The third naval battle between the United States and Japan finally ended with the victory of the American army, and the Japanese navy suffered heavy losses.
The Japanese army suffered huge losses, and they felt that they were too disadvantaged to resist the US army alone, so why did the Republic of China live leisurely in the rear? Therefore, the Republic of China was asked to send troops. But Lao Jiang spread his hands and said that the Republic of China Navy only has a few old-fashioned destroyers, so what to send troops? Japan said that you don't need to send too many people, as long as Jian Mingyue is enough. (To be continued.) )
