Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1151 Dilemma

The Japanese Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force was severely defeated. It retreated from Ubin in northern Myanmar to Libao. If it hadn't been for the ** Division troops, who suddenly stopped attacking, your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief, might have been on his way back to the Malay Peninsula at this moment.

After Ito returned to Mandalay, he couldn't figure out why he was defeated so miserably. He had more troops than Tang Qiuli. To say it was a strategic mistake, Ito didn't admit it. When he fought against the British, Ito

Use Eastern strategy to its fullest potential.

Mandalay was surrounded by three men and one was missing, an ambush was set up in the Libao Grand Canyon, and the Yindun River cut off the British army's retreat. More than 400,000 British people were beaten to less than 50,000, thus ending the British rule in Indochina for several decades.

In the ten years of history, these battles are all remarkable. Why are they defeated as soon as they encounter the troops of the Japanese Army?

Moreover, he was still defeated at the hands of a little-known Tang Qiusheng. How could Ito deal with it calmly? After thinking painfully for two days, Ito came to the conclusion that this defeat was not due to military strength, but to military strength.

They were defeated not by strategy, but by the superior firepower of the Army Division. From the number of tanks to the number and caliber of artillery, their own troops were inferior to Tang Qiuli's troops:.

After encountering the overwhelming artillery fire in Ubin, Ito had a profound understanding of the equipment of the Imperial Army of Japan, which he was usually proud of. There was a huge difference. After retreating to Mandalay, Ito's biggest

He was worried that Tang Qiuli's troops would continue to attack. He was not sure whether the already wounded dispatched troops could stop the attack of Tang Qiuli's troops under such circumstances.

Aware of the crisis he was facing, Ito finally wrote a battle report to the base camp. It was not bad. In the report, Ito did not mean to shirk responsibility at all, nor did he blame the general. In fact, there was no one to blame, and he was eager to

The rash Lieutenant General Nomura turned into a lonely soul in the Banmao Mountains.

Lieutenant General Nanyun, who looked down on Tang Qiuli, was torn into pieces by the enemy's artillery shells in Degang. His successor, Major General Zhongze, became a pile of ashes in the Degang Canyon.

At this moment, Major General Koizumi, the chief of staff who prompted him to make the wrong decision, was sent to the logistics department to look at the warehouse. Think about it, there is no one who can share the responsibility for him.

Ito's battle report was written slowly, with difficulty, and racked his brains. He had to truthfully explain the situation of the battle, the situation in northern Myanmar, and the difficulties he faced, without making himself look too incompetent and stupid.

It requires the understanding of the base camp and His Majesty the Emperor, and attracts the attention of the country. It cannot be said to be too pitiful, and the dignity of the general of the Japanese Empire must be maintained.

Oops, it’s so hard for General Ito Yanzaburo. Even when he wrote a love letter to his wife, Ito didn’t spend so much time on it. Ito locked himself in the room and thought hard about the battle report to the base camp. His head was several times bigger.

, in the Wubin frontline headquarters of the ** Division, it was another situation.

Tang Qiuli asked Tang Qiusheng with a smile, "Brother Qiusheng, according to your judgment, does Ito Yanzaburo still have the ability to continue to invade Myitkyina north?" Tang Qiusheng shook his head and said: "Ito has already broken his muscles and bones, and now

, he is not considering whether to continue committing crimes in the North

, but he is worried every day, worried about whether we will continue to attack Mandalay. Ito is not stupid. With his current strength, he is definitely not an opponent. If he still wants to take action, I am afraid he will have to ask for troops from Japan. How many troops are there?

It will happen in a few months, :.”

Tang Qiuli nodded and said: "The Japanese are now placing their bets on Southeast Asia, in the Northeast, and on the outer Xing'an Mountains in the Far East. Zhukov's Soviet Far East Army is containing Japan's largest overseas combat group, the Kwantung Army.

Brother Tiehan's troops are marching to the western Liaoning Peninsula, with their eyes fixed on the hinterland of Northeast China. The Japanese military strength in the north does not dare to be reduced at all."

"As a result, if the Japanese want to increase their troops to Southeast Asia, they will have to form new troops at home. This cannot be done overnight. The Japanese have been fighting a war against China for more than three years, and they have lost everything on the Chinese mainland.

With at least more than one million troops, their domestic reserve forces should be stretched thin, and they cannot open up new battlefields. I hope the Japanese can retreat and withdraw their troops from Indochina. This will save me a lot of energy.

"

These last few words, Tang Qiuli said almost to himself, Tang Qiusheng and Chang Feng understood clearly. They are the core senior leaders of the *** division, so they naturally know the division commander Tang Qiuli's strategic deployment in Southeast Asia. However,

No one answered the call, they were all thinking about the problem quietly. Chang Feng had a question in his heart: Are the Japanese really willing to fail in Indochina?

Tang Qiusheng was really right about the content of Ito's report on the Northern Burma Campaign to the base camp. At the end of the report, Ito made a long list, asking for soldiers, artillery, tanks, aircraft, etc.

Supplies, everything was needed, especially artillery. As soon as Ito opened his mouth, he asked for ten brigades.

The current stalemate is what Ito least wants to see. Passive defense is not the core of the Southeast Asia strategic plan formulated by the base camp. Even if Ito wants to defend, the base camp will not agree. What's more, in the eastern part of the Indochina Peninsula, Tang Qiuli

There are two main corps approaching towards northern Myanmar.

If you want to defend, do you think you can hold it? It’s not like Ito hasn’t thought about it. With the existing troops, part of them can contain the ** division troops opposite Libao, and most of the troops can cross the Salween River eastward and develop towards the southeast of Indochina Peninsula.

Tang Qiuli's two main corps were on the Salween River, like two tigers, blocking Ito's ambition to advance eastward.

Attack westward, cross the Irrawaddy River, and pass through the narrow corridor in western Myanmar, which is the border of India. Should we go to India and fight the British again? Ito became discouraged after thinking about it. Not to mention the complex geographical environment, the vast

In the eastern part of India, just attack the remaining 300,000-odd troops and scatter them so that not even a shadow can be seen. Other book friends are reading:.

What's more, this is forcing the British to fight with themselves, and the base camp will not agree. It completely violates the established Southeast Asia strategy of the base camp. No matter what aspect he considers, Ito feels that choosing to attack Myitkyina in northern Myanmar is the most practical.

, which is in the best interest of the empire. After the British were driven out of the Indochina Peninsula, the only enemy of the empire was Tang Qiuli's army.

Only by completely defeating or eliminating this Chinese devil will Indochina Peninsula be permanently included in the overseas territory of the Japanese Empire. However, Ito's current capital is not enough. If all the supplements he requested are in place, Ito will use them as soon as possible.

Swordsmen rushed to the north of Burma, killing Tang Qiuli's army, rewriting the shame of Wubin's defeat.

Ito was like a wounded wolf, hiding in the corner, licking his wounds while looking at Ubin, Myitkyina, Northern Myanmar, and Tang Qiu with cold and hateful eyes.

Lift away and quietly sharpen your teeth.

After Ito's report on the Battle of Northern Burma was submitted to the Japanese base camp, it immediately caused extreme shock among the top brass of the Japanese military. General Ito Yanzaburo, who had beaten the British to death in northern Burma, was eaten by the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli.

The battle was severely defeated, with one-third of the troops lost, and they were forced to retreat to Libao in central Myanmar. They would face fierce attacks from the Chinese Army Division at any time.

First of all, Emperor Hirohito lost his temper again. He simply couldn't imagine why all the famous imperial generals always lost when facing Tang Qiuli? From North China to Songhu, from southern China to Myanmar,

One by one, high-ranking generals fell into disgrace. Could it be that this was the fate of the imperial generals? Is this China devil Tang Qiuli an obstacle that they cannot avoid? Is he the nemesis of his dream of a greater East Asia?

Hirohito also read Ito's report. To be honest, His Majesty the Emperor's head was so big for this big-mouthed guy. What he wanted almost wiped out the country's military potential. So, what about Manchuria? Far East

What about the Xing'an Mountains? What about the islands in the South China Sea? What should I do?

So, His Majesty the Emperor cursed General Ito in the most vicious language in his palace, and greeted all his female relatives countless times, completely forgetting that just after the victory of sending troops to Southeast Asia to drink Dune, he gave Ito Yanzaburo

Those words of praise made the military attachés tremble with fear, fearing that the Emperor would be angry and punish this famous general who defeated the British for the empire. Other book friends are reading:.

They thought wrong. After Emperor Hirohito lost his temper, he ordered to go down and immediately convene a military meeting to study the issue of dispatching troops to Southeast Asia. Of course Hirohito would not deal with it. General Ito, who had made military exploits for the empire, was such a general who could win the war.

, he still couldn't bear it, mainly because Hirohito felt distressed.

The nearly one million Kwantung Army troops maintaining the Xing'an Mountains in the Far East and confronting the Soviets have already strained the Japanese government's finances and resources. Otherwise, Hirohito would not have set his sights on Southeast Asia, which is rich in natural resources.

Ito went to war with Britain, the old capitalist power. Ito defeated the British, but was defeated by the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli. Now, even if Hirohito wanted to stop, it was impossible.

The imperial military meeting did not go well. The senior generals who participated in the meeting were divided into two groups with different opinions. It was still the old tradition. The army and navy could not pee in the same pot. The army advocated that they should immediately follow Ito-kun's request.

, dispatch troops to Southeast Asia and replenish all troops, equipment and supplies.

The Army's reason was that it had already fought against the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli's troops in Burma, so it was impossible and not allowed to stop. Otherwise, the empire would have to revise its overall strategic plan for Southeast Asia and hand over the Indochina Peninsula to the Chinese. This would be very important to the empire.

It is not just a simple humiliation, but also a loss of strategic materials and energy base.

The navy's opinion is exactly the opposite. Instead of entangled with the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli in Indochina, and with no hope of victory in a short period of time, no general in the army is Tang Qiuli's opponent.

Therefore, the Navy advocates developing towards the South Pacific and competing with the Americans for control there.

Then, there was a quarrel without giving in. Hirohito's eyes were gloomy and gloomy, and he silently looked at the noisy and red-faced dozen or so senior generals of the army and navy, whose faces became increasingly ugly.
