Chapter 375: Thai Chinese
The transport ships and merchant ships of the 35th and 36th Divisions of the Japanese Army were almost all sunk by the carrier-based aircraft units of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army in the Gulf of Thailand. Except for a few merchant ships, all the rest of the ships were sent to the bottom www.biquge.info of the sea. All but a few of the more than 30,000 Japanese officers and men on board the transport and merchant ships were overboard.
Of course, it is almost impossible for these Japanese officers and soldiers to come back from the rescue. There were a considerable number of landlubbers in it who did not know water, and these Japanese soldiers were drowned directly after falling into the water.
The remaining Japanese officers and soldiers who knew the nature of water had no way to escape back to the shore. After all, that's a few dozen kilometers away! It's almost impossible to swim back. Not to mention, there are many sharks in the sea that are attracted by the smell of blood on these Japanese officers and soldiers. For these sharks, these days* themselves are a rare delicacy.
Although, there were a lot of Japanese officers and soldiers who fell into the water, enough for many sharks to have a full meal. But those sharks didn't stop eating when they were full. Even if they were full, the remaining Japanese soldiers would be killed by them mercilessly.
Therefore, those Japanese soldiers who fell into the water can be regarded as bad luck. Many Japanese soldiers were killed by shark bites, and there were countless corpses floating on the sea. The entire sea was about to be stained red by the blood of these Japanese soldiers.
"Amaterasu! Do you just look at your people like this, slaughtered like this? On a lifeboat, Lieutenant General Sakanishi Kazura looked at the Japanese soldiers struggling in the water, with a sad and indignant face.
Lieutenant General Jing Guan did not say a word. There is no doubt that this time, they lost too badly. Even Thailand was annihilated by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army before it arrived. At the same time, this means that it will not be safe to travel to Thailand by sea. This will further empty their military presence in Thailand. It is undoubtedly more difficult to defeat the powerful Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army by relying on those armies. Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Jing couldn't help but sigh.
"Jing Seki-kun, what's wrong?" Lieutenant General Kazura Sakanishi asked.
"Bannishi-kun, I'm worried about the situation in Thailand! If the Chinese have planes to block the sea route, our reinforcements will not be able to go to Thailand at all. At that time, will only the 2nd Division, the 5th Division, the 32nd Division, and the 29th Brigade and the 5th Engineer Corps Headquarters be able to withstand the attack of the Chinese people? Lieutenant General Jing Seki looked worried.
Hearing Lieutenant General Iseki say this, Lieutenant General Sakanishi Kazuyo's face suddenly became very ugly.
Indeed, if this is the plan of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. Then, the Japanese army on the battlefield in Thailand may become even more difficult.
"Yaga! Despicable Chinese people, they don't dare to fight us in a dignified manner. Lieutenant General Kazura Sakanishi scolded.
But is there any other way for him to vent his anger than this?
The news that the carrier-based aircraft unit of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army had solved a large transport fleet of the Japanese army was quickly reported to Qin Shou.
After Qin Shou received the news, he laughed even more.
"Great, this can be regarded as hurting the day * himself. The final battle of the Battle of Thailand had not yet begun, and they had suffered heavy losses. This is a good sign! Qin Shou's face was full of smiles.
The current situation can be said to be more and more favorable to the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army's grasp of taking Thailand is getting higher and higher. As long as the battle of Thailand can be completely won. Then, no one can stop the rise of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
"Commander, our intelligence department has also received information about this convoy that we have taken out. The troops they transported were the 35th and 36th Divisions of the Japanese Army from the island of Java. This time, these two divisions can be regarded as finished. Chief of Staff Liu Shiquan had a smile on his face.
"Well, let the intelligence department continue to work hard to find out more information." Qin Shou commanded.
Although, the Directorate of Military Intelligence has just been created. However, with the support of sufficient manpower and funds, the development has been very rapid. The Chinese have a very broad base in Nanyang, which also enables the intelligence bureau of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to extend to the entire Nanyang with the help of these Chinese.
The life of the Nanyang Chinese was already very hard. However, the sudden rise of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army seemed to give them new hope.
"Commander, I have suffered such a big loss this time. They should not dare to transport troops to Thailand by sea anymore. In this case, their troops in Thailand alone may not be able to resist our attack at all. Liu Shiquan said with a smile.
"Well, whether or not Japan himself will transport troops by sea, this will not hurt us at all. If they continue to take the sea route, then let the carrier-based aircraft force continue to send them to the sea to feed the fish. If they don't go by sea, but by land. So, by the time they arrived in Thailand, I had already taken the whole of Thailand. ”
In any case, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has already gained the upper hand on the battlefield in Thailand. No matter what method the Japanese themselves adopted, they could not prevent the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army from occupying Thailand.
"Commander, after the occupation of Thailand, do we still need to go on a killing spree? The number of Chinese in Thailand is quite large. Even the current Thai Prime Minister Phibun Songkhan is, in a sense, Chinese. Liu Shiquan was a little worried.
The number of Chinese in Thailand is much larger than that in Myanmar. They have formed a close connection with the whole of Thailand. Moreover, the Chinese almost controlled the economy of Thailand. Even in Thai politics, the Chinese have a deep weight. It's just that many Chinese in Thailand have long forgotten their roots.
This can be seen from the fact that during this invasion of the south by Japan, a group of people led by Phibun Songkhan immediately fell to Japan* himself.
"I've figured out how to do things in Thailand. Although, there are many Chinese in Thailand. However, I don't recognize those who have forgotten their roots, forgotten their ancestors, and recognized thieves as their fathers. I also believe that those Chinese are a small minority. The vast majority of Chinese people remember their identity. Qin Shou said.
Of course, after the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army occupies Thailand, on the one hand, it will hold high the stick and suppress all opposition forces. At the same time, it will also attract a considerable number of people. In this way, the rule of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in Thailand can be ensured.
