Before coming up with the idea, Makino had never realized that he could be so vicious. He didn't know if it was the Japanese part of his body that was at work, or the American part. Of course, maybe it's just reason at work.

He has chosen two places so far, one is the Mukden arsenal and the other is the Pyongyang arsenal, which seems to have advantages given that North Korea has uranium mines and a 300,000-kilowatt hydropower plant, but he prefers to build an enrichment plant in China, south of Shanhaiguan, which is purely strategic, and he thinks that this will be more restrictive to a potential adversary, if that adversary exists. He is roughly forty percent sure of his judgment, and it has not yet exceeded half. Although the anti-submarine aircraft reported a discovery and dropped a *, after all, there was no further feedback after the launch. The Wyvern has not suffered any attack and is currently in Rabaul for minor repairs and is ready to return for overhaul.

In fact, he often asked himself whether the nuclear submarine was just speculation, because if you speculate from the opposite direction, the signs of the submarine's non-existence are even more obvious, such as the fact that she has never clearly demonstrated the power that all the powers of this era fear. However, his intellect also told him that the ingenuity of his opponent may lie in hiding in the shadows, because the essence of a submarine is to hide. So, after weighing it, they didn't make the inevitable choice like Asano's straw bales - to surface and show off their might. If so, then this gang is simply destined to be the nemesis.

V1* is just the first step. This crude weapon was still in a state of secrecy in Nazi Germany, and Hitler refused to provide V2 technology, but his scientific advisers thought that V1 was not so advanced, and they sent all the technical information, drawings and engine prototypes, as well as a few physical bombs, to Japan through U-boats, in exchange for rare metals and a foothold for supply submarines in the Indian Ocean, but the foothold promised by Japan is still under Dutch control, Because the original plan to attack Dutch Borneo gave way to the Indian Raiders, Imamura's 16th Army was still empty, and the troops originally scheduled for him were split between the 17th Army in New Guinea and the 15th Army here in Burma, which was essentially Asano's strategy.

Makino didn't think about strategy, he knew that Asano's trick on the staff of the military department was particularly useful, because the military department tended to increase the stakes, so they would inevitably hit it off, but he didn't believe that without changing the strength of the country, relying on these crooked ways to revise history could play a decisive role, he felt that Asano's idea was very dangerous, and if it was self-defeating, he would even lose even worse.

Makino believes that if there is one thing that can change history, it can only be nuclear weapons, and it is not a few warheads in the Kasuga bilge, but a complete nuclear industry capability. The countdown to Japan's nuclear bombing by the United States had begun, and he had to delay the collapse of the Japanese army, and if the American forces could not advance to Tinian in 1945, they would not be able to attack the Japanese mainland. Therefore, when the scientists of Imperial University carried out theoretical research and carried out industrial planning, he also had to make a few killer moves on conventional weapons to delay the formation of the advantages of the allies as much as possible. He was an industrial triumphant, so he never believed that the real victory or defeat would have been a failure like the one at Midway, and even if Midway had failed, the Pacific Ocean would have been Japan's domain throughout 1942. The pressure came from the first quarter of 1943, when the United States began to build warships, Essex far more powerful than a few Yorktown, and carrying more powerful fighters. This is not something that Asano's opportunism might be up against.

The biggest drawback of the V1* is that it is too slow, about half the speed of sound. He had been involved in the design of the Japanese anti-ship* and knew that he could make effective improvements to this crude flying machine, so he could increase the speed to at least 750 kilometers, and by continuing to modify the engine, he could tap the potential of this early jet pulse engine to increase the speed to more than 900 kilometers at the end of the flight.

In addition, he planned to increase the range by adding external fuel tanks to the axis position, which was even more important in naval warfare, so that Yamamoto's intentions could be realized. Of course, in his planning, the second stage has to add the function of using the ship's rail launch. By the third stage, the radio remote control function (controlled by the bomber) was added, changing the essence of the suicide machine. At the fourth stage, after the maturity of autopilot, radio altimeter and radar technology, the capabilities of sea-skimming flight and self-propelled search are added. Refining this weapon is enough to counteract the speed of the US fleet's advance into the Japanese mainland, of course, that will inevitably allow the United States to invest resources in Chinese mainland, use the airfields there to bomb, and increase the strength to arm the Chinese army, even if he hates Asano, he also hopes that Asano's absurd plan can be realized.

Mutaguchi received an order from Kamimine to block the attack, but did not explicitly tell him where the enemy might go. His follow-up force had originally stopped at Indo, because he felt no need to go north, and was ready to go to India at any time. Now I'm blind.

Masanobu Tsuji sent him a telegram strongly advising him to defend to the east to prevent the expeditionary force from joining forces with the 74th Army in the east. But Mutaguchi was a veteran after all, and he judged that the enemy should not go to the east, and he would go early. Because before, the new 38th Division opened a passage to India from near Indo, so it is more likely that they are going to India. Moreover, the Chinese army is currently on the west bank of the Irrawaddy River, and if it goes to Lashio, it should occupy the east bank, and I don't know how Staff Officer Tsuji came to such a counterintuitive conclusion.

He scattered his last three brigades and divisions directly under the division, and only sent one brigade to collect the east, and the rest was deployed in Yingduo, using the fortifications originally built by the Chinese army to slightly repair and expand the troops.

Sure enough, the reconnaissance of the plane gradually verified his assumption, the Chinese army did not have any extra tricks, that is, all the way to kill here, and now he was facing the main point, how to use more than 2,000 men and horses to stop at least 50,000 enemies (he also did not accurately grasp the number of expeditionary forces)

The first to be killed was the 49th Division of the 6th Army, and the other two divisions of the army had already been routed by the Japanese near Jingdong, leaving only the military headquarters and a disengaged division of less than 6,000 people. Becoming the vanguard in the retreat sequence, the unit immediately ran into the Japanese elite blocking line, collapsed at the first touch, and fled back with only a dozen corpses.

The defending Japanese army also wondered, it was rumored that tens of thousands of Chinese troops suddenly counterattacked, and Commander Iida commanded improperly, and the whole battle situation was about to turn around as if the sky was falling, and how it was crushed as soon as the opponent was beaten.

Lin Xiuxuan hid in the mountains, watching the Japanese troops rushing north from the distant road, he was not in a hurry at all with a hand of information, and knew the approximate number of the enemy coming. In the end, no more than 4 brigades, or 5,000 people, will form a blockade. This is all the belongings that the 18th Division can organize in a day or two, and the other troops are still far away.

Looking at it, Brooke and Tao Mingzhang came over behind him, both in a hurry, not as firmly as he sat on the Diaoyu Tai. The vanguard of the expeditionary force had just encountered a blockade 40 kilometers to the north, and it seemed that it could not get through. As for how many Japanese troops there were, they did not know. In the entire Burma battlefield, both sides have not figured out the specific strength of the opponent so far, and only Lin Xiuxuan's team knows it best.

Brooke had just found his father-in-law on the radio, and knew that the advance troops of the new 38th Division had crossed the Qingdun River, indicating that it was feasible to go to India, but it seemed that he could not get over here. Obviously, as long as the retreat is blocked, the Japanese troops from all sides will soon arrive. That would be a dead end. He exchanged views with Tao Mingzhang and felt that he should attack immediately and concentrate his forces to give the Japanese army from behind, so that he could rescue the expeditionary force.

They said this idea, but Lin Linqi disagreed, he thought that the time had not come, he hoped that the enemy would assemble and fight another battle of annihilation, if the headquarters of the 18th Division could be eliminated once and for all, so that the possibility of the enemy entangled all the way and the determination of the 15th Army to attack Assam in the next month would be minimized. There were 80,000 people in total, and less than 5,000 enemies were flanked in front and back, so of course he was sure, but it was a pity that others could not have such a clear grasp of the enemy's situation.

Of course, the idea can't be said directly, because he can't explain the source of his reconnaissance, he can only use the excuse that Zhou Youfu's task of collecting cars is not good, and the responsibility is put on Lao Zhou.

The expeditionary force accompanied by thousands of wounded, if there were not enough cars, it would inevitably drag down the team, so he handed over the matter to Lao Zhou, originally Du Yuming dropped a lot of American and British cars nearby when he retreated, many of them were simply destroyed, the Japanese repair troops were particularly diligent, and they collected a lot of parts and repaired a lot, Lao Zhou was planning to attack the repair institute and rob him of a batch, because he didn't want to expose his strength too early, and he didn't move.

Here, the expeditionary force replaced the 28th and 96th Divisions to attack the defense line of the 5th Division in turn, but unfortunately there were no heavy weapons, and they ran into the most stubborn enemy, and they were never able to break through. In the afternoon, the 200th Regiment of the 599th Division entered the battle and once broke through the enemy's defensive line, but Mutaguchi quickly transferred the troops directly under the division and restored the position.

In the headquarters of Taze's 15th Army, Iida Shojiro's heart hanging in his throat was slightly lowered, fortunately, there was a Dinghai God Needle like the 18th Division to turn the tide, otherwise it would really make the Chinese turn over, and now the reinforcements from all directions in the south are about to arrive, and the chasing troops will also be caught up in 1 day. Then it will be difficult for the enemy to fly with wings.

If this battle was completed, the enemy's abandonment of Myitkyina's fortified city and flight south would be self-defeating, and it would save his own time, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice when he thought of this. He knew that the characteristics of the Chinese army's offensive attack were generally exhausted in one go, not to mention the report from the front that the enemy really had no heavy weapons and no tanks. Only US planes came to drop bombs when they saw the stitches, and it was better than nothing.

"Finally blocked, Commander," said Chief of Staff Shiokawa beside Iida, "Staff Officer Tsuji has been really confused recently, and he has tried his best to let the 18th Division defend the east, but fortunately, Mutian has seen through the enemy's strategy of attacking the east and west, and now the Chinese army will regret such an impulsive attack to the south." Once we block them in the unsupported area, in a day or two, they can be eliminated. ”

"That's what I said, but I still can't be careless." Shojiro Iida nodded, his tone a lot more relaxed.

"Commander, the past 10 hours have been the most stressful moment of my life."

Iida nodded silently, he was not used to conclusions when the warrior was undecided, but his expression was quite proud.

Someone came and put a new flag on the map, and the Onoda brigade arrived, and now the number of troops blocking the opponent has increased considerably. And in the statistics of the past hour, the * fired by the enemy has also been halved.

"It seems that the battle in Burma can be over, and only two brigades of the British army and one division of the Chinese army will run away in the end. Reducing the number, there are already 140,000. Shiokawa said, "Although we were the last to end the battle in several battlefields in the South Seas, the number of enemies destroyed was not small. ”
