Lion City, the headquarters of the Japanese Southern Army. Since the news of the almost annihilation of the 18th Front Army and the surrender of the 4th Division came www.biquge.info the atmosphere of the entire headquarters has become very solemn.

The staff officers and soldiers of the headquarters tried their best to slow down their steps when walking, so as not to disturb General Terauchi Shouichi, who was in a fit of rage. Before, someone had already been punished by General Shouichi Terauchi hatefully for speaking loudly, and then demoted to feed the horses. Others don't want to follow in such footsteps!

In the office of General Terauchi Toshiichi, Lieutenant General Kuroda Shigetoku, Chief of Staff of the Southern Army, Lieutenant General Takahashi Tan, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Southern Army, Lieutenant General Yoshio Kamitsuki, Commander of the Japanese 2nd Army, and Lieutenant General Machijiri Miki, Commander of the Japanese 38th Army, were all gathered here.

After learning of the crushing defeat of the 18th Front, General Terauchi Toshiichi specially ordered Lieutenant General Yoshio Kamitsuki and Lieutenant Commander Machijiri to meet him in the Lion City. Because, General Terauchi Shouichi felt that the situation on the battlefield in Thailand had reached a very critical point. If you don't do it well, the Japanese army will lose completely. Therefore, General Terauchi Shouichi attaches great importance to the next Thai campaign.

"Ladies and gentlemen, by now, the Thai campaign is halfway underway. But, unfortunately, in the first half of the battle in Thailand, we lost completely. Judging from the current situation, the 18th Front Army, in addition to the 29th Brigade and the 5th Engineer Corps Headquarters, the 4th Division, the 15th Division, the 22nd Division, and the 56th Division were all killed in battle. Of course, the group of cowards of the 4th Division are not worthy of being warriors of the Great Day * Empire at all. They are all a disgrace to the Great Nikchi Empire. I will ask the Native to punish those who surrender to Japan* themselves.

In addition, Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura, Lieutenant General Seiji Moriya, Major General Kuntaro Yamada and others all committed suicide by seppuku. They are all role models for my generation. I hope that you will learn from them in the next battles. ”

General Terauchi Shouichi calmly recounted this, without any angry expression. But in fact, the anger in his heart has not diminished much at all. It's just that the current situation is critical, and he needs to calmly find a way to win this battle, instead of getting angry at these generals. If this battle is lost, the consequences will be truly unimaginable.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." All the Japanese generals replied.

These generals have always been very worried in their hearts. The 18th Front was in Thailand, and it was fighting really badly. So much so that they are worried that they will be implicated. However, judging from the current situation, it is they who are overly worried. General Shouichi Terauchi still controlled his emotions very well. This also made these generals breathe a sigh of relief. After all, no one wants to be a subordinate to a moody person.

"Your Excellency Commander, that guy from Sekihara Roku actually betrayed the Dainichi * Empire and surrendered to the Shina people, and he must be severely punished." Last month, Lieutenant General Yoshio was the first to speak.

The rest of the generals also expressed their positions. After all, this was definitely the first general of the Southern Army to surrender to the enemy, and it really had a bad effect.

"I'll talk about Sekihara Liu's affairs later. Now, what we have to do is to defeat the people of China as much as possible. Otherwise, once Thailand is lost, we will be in big *trouble. General Terauchi said coldly.

If he could, of course he would want to shoot Lieutenant General Sekihara with his own hands. But alas, now he has to focus on how to win this battle.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." All the generals replied.

"Your Excellency, Commander, after the crushing defeat of the 18th Front Army and the Thai Army, the people of China will inevitably drive straight into Bangkok. From Samut Prakan to Bangkok, it is only more than 200 kilometers. With the speed of the Chinese advance, I am afraid that in ten days at most, they will be in Bangkok. Lieutenant General Shigetoku Kuroda looked worried.

Now, they don't talk about exterminating the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in northern Thailand. If we can defeat the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army on the battlefield in Thailand, it will be a great luck. As for the rest, it's all empty words.

"Last month-kun, how many troops of the 2nd Army have arrived in Bangkok?" General Shouichi Terauchi asked.

Next, the 2nd Army and the 38th Army are the main forces on the battlefield in Thailand.

"Your Excellency, the 5th and 32nd Divisions have arrived in Bangkok. The next 35th Division, the 36th Division, the 57th and 128th Brigades, as well as the 2nd Marine Mobile Brigade, the 4th Engineer Corps Headquarters, will arrive within a week. If the Chinese dare to attack Bangkok, we will be in Bangkok, and we will be ready to defeat the Chinese people. "Lieutenant General Yoshio last month, a look of affirmation.

Admiral Terauchi nodded with satisfaction, after he personally communicated with the navy, the navy had already accelerated the speed of transporting these troops. This allowed the troops to arrive within a week.

If the 2nd Army could all reach Bangkok within a week, then General Terauchi Shouichi believed that it would not be so easy for the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to take Bangkok. If the 38th Army could arrive in time, they would even be able to launch a counterattack in Bangkok.

"Machijiri-kun, what about the 38th Army?" General Shouichi Terauchi asked.

"Your Excellency Commander, the 38th Division under the 2nd Army will arrive in Thailand tomorrow. However, the 21st Division, the 37th Division, the 55th Division, and the 34th Brigade will not be able to arrive one after another in the next half a month. I've already urged the Navy. However, their answer is that there is not enough capacity right now. The submarines of the Americans, who attacked our merchant ships on the ocean, caused heavy losses to our merchant ships. Lieutenant General Machijiri reported.

Admiral Terauchi Shouichi frowned, although he was a little dissatisfied. However, he also knew that there was no way around it. The navy is so ineffective, it can't let these troops swim directly from the sea. Fortunately, if the 38th Army can all arrive in Thailand within half a month, it will not be too late. If the Japanese army and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army had fought a decisive battle around Bangkok, it would certainly not end in a short time.

"On the navy's side, I'll urge them to speed up as soon as possible." General Shouichi Terauchi said.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Lieutenant General Machijiri nodded and said no more.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura has become a god. So, on the battlefield in Thailand, a new commander is needed. General Shouichi Terauchi changed his words and threw out this question.
