ACT627: Acceptance

The last time Starburg left the Shattered Star Sector was during the Spanish Civil War. At that time, the Zhao ship, which only had King Kong, a "high-speed battleship", had to pull out the main base to fill the number, and with the help of the optical camouflage that was not mature at that time, the Star Castle quietly flew to Venus.

And now that Star Castle has gone on the expedition again, it has long since ceased to be Wuxia Amon.

The focus of the three-phase renovation project jointly completed by Chavier and Thor is on the "fortressing". The huge body of the Star Fort allows it to accommodate more and larger weapons than battleships, and the defense adopts the double insurance of composite armor + position, and the overall combat power has made a qualitative leap.

Of course! As the main base, the Star Fort is not its job to fight wars.

Surrounded by the front and rear of the main fleet, the "thick-armored squid" of Star Castle flew through the second star gate to the Jupiter Domain. Its appearance immediately frightened the civilian ships and Japanese patrol fleets wandering near the Star Gate, and this side completely ignored their existence.

The goal of the Star Fort Fleet's trip was to "save" the Japanese civilians from the dire situation. While it's unclear if Europa's derailment is related to Ghost Fortress, the current frequency of major earthquakes is 100% of its blame. With it continuing to make noise in the core, the whole of Europa has not stopped.

However, the operation of "Planet Piercing" sounds too unbelievable, so before the operation begins, Hiromi repeatedly confirmed the details of the operation to Zhao Jian.

"Zhao Jun, if according to the battle plan you conceived, you want to open a big hole deep into the earth's core on the surface of the planet, will it really not cause a devastating blow to Europa?"

"No, Hiromi! It's not a big hole for the whole planet, it's like a needle, and the pinhole heals quickly, but I can't guarantee that there will be no casualties among civilians. ”

"I know that...... Thank you, Jun Zhao! ”

Two hours later, the Starfort and the escort fleet arrived at the expected interception orbit. It joined up with another detachment of the Tang Army, which had been waiting here for a long time. When the two fleets united, they did not immediately approach Ganymede, but first sailed to nearby Ganymede.

This humble planet was rewarded by the Tang Dynasty to a number of vassal countries in Southeast Asia in the early years because of its hot and humid climate. Later, during the rebellion of the Six Kings of the Tang Dynasty, the colonists found that the southern part of the planet was rich in oil and suitable for large-scale rubber cultivation, so it became an important resource source for the Netherlands outside the country, and it did not fall into the hands of Japan until two years ago.

Today, on this planet, the Japanese garrison has only 7 army divisions and less than 130,000 soldiers. The garrison fleet was transferred back to its hometown to transport people. It was a time when the defenses were empty. Zhao Jian planned to take advantage of this opportunity to persuade these abandoned Japanese troops to surrender.

Long before the start of this operation, Zhao Jian had already negotiated the relevant conditions with Datang for Yumi. Moe Sect openly supported Hiromi and recognized Federal Japan as the legitimate regime. But at the cost of gaining support, the new Japan had to conclude a security treaty with the Datang side.

This treaty ostensibly puts the future Japan under the protection of the Tang Dynasty, but in fact it is a vassal relationship in disguise, but the nominal alliance relationship sounds more pleasant.

So Hiromi and the federal government under her command need to have their own troops, and when they take Ganymede, they will also need a large number of vigilantes to maintain order and provide disaster relief. Star Fort has a relatively limited ground force, and these troops that have been deliberately abandoned by the base camp can be said to be just right.

From the point of view of intelligence, among these seven divisions, only the Osaka 4th Division and the 109th Division are relatively commendable. The former is the only Division A regiment stationed in Ganymede. The soldiers are neatly staffed and relatively well-equipped. The latter was because the division commander was Kuribayashi Tadamichi, so Zhao Jian gave them a special look.

In another time and space, Kuribayashi Tadamichi's appearance on Iwo Jima can be said to be one of the few bright spots of the Japanese Army in the entire Pacific War. This "pit digging maniac" is using more than 20,000 old, weak, sick and disabled. I have been fighting with the US military, which is several times my size, for more than a month.

Moreover, this guy is still one of the few foreigners among the megalomaniacs at the top of the IJA, and he has been to many really developed countries, and he knows the gap between the same class of powers in Japan. If the other party can understand the current affairs. It's still quite possible to turn around.

Unhindered, the fleet easily entered the atmosphere of Callisto and flew over several of the main Japanese military positions. In the face of a sudden and strong enemy, the various divisions and regiments completely revealed their combat qualities at this moment.

The 109th Division, stationed in Manila, was the most responsive of the seven divisions, and they had been building underground fortifications in the city for months. Therefore, as soon as the battleships of Star Castle appeared over the city, Kuribayashi Tadamichi took refuge in the tunnel with his troops, preparing to resist stubbornly to the end.

The Osaka Division, which was stationed in Luzon, simply abandoned the city and then broke into pieces and burrowed into the dense rainforest, as if intending to fight guerrilla warfare. If it weren't for the fact that Starcastle could have listened to their radios, I almost thought that these vendors would have broken up in fright.

In contrast, the reaction of several other divisions was a little dazed and overwhelmed.

"It's funny, these Osaka people are pretty slippery."

"Humph! These shitties are simply a shame on the imperial soldiers! ”

In the main command room of Star Castle, Zhao Jian looked at the picture transmitted by the drone with a smile...... One by one, the "humanoid heat source" is carefully hiding under the canopy of trees that shade the sky. And Saigo Takamori on the side scoffed at these Osaka guys who retreated without a fight.

In the eyes of most Japanese, the Osaka Division's fighting style can be said to have no samurai spirit at all, hence the name "wreck". But in fact, this army was actually not weak, at least during the Tang-Japanese War, the Tang army gave a fairly positive evaluation.

"These devils will use their brains to fight!"

This is the summary made by the 66th and 88th divisions of the Tang Army, which were against them at that time, after the war.

Compared with the stunned onslaught-like onslaught style of other Japanese ground troops, the tactical characteristics of the Osaka Division highlight the word "slippery"! Like a nimble loach, the Osaka soldiers never went head-to-head with the Tang army, which had the advantage of firepower, and used the rugged mountains and jungles to carry out Zhou Xuan throughout the process.

Of course! These guys are not without black spots, and the code of conduct of "saving life first" makes them still unwilling to launch a fierce attack on the opposing Tang army even in the later stage of the war, when the Japanese Combined Fleet has already achieved space superiority.

As a result, the war ended, and the Osaka Division suffered the least casualties, which made the other troops very unhappy.

Judging from the current movement of the various divisions of the Osaka Division, the other side obviously wants to repeat the old tricks, but they are facing the Star Fort troops with overwhelming technical superiority, and the dense jungle cannot block the "clairvoyance" in the sky, and their every move is under the watchful eye of the drone.

Not going to waste time with these guys, Zhao Jian took out what he had prepared a long time ago...... (To be continued......)

PS: The Japan-U.S. Security Treaty was set up with reference to the Japan-US Security Treaty, and the father-son relationship was established.
