Age of Conquest Reborn

The first thousand two hundred and eighty-three chapters give MacArthur a problem

--go-->Liu Xinlan, who had not slept all night, accompanied Tang Qiuli to prepare for the war. She first participated in two consecutive meetings and served as the meeting recorder. She also had to take care of the breakfast of these big bosses, and then ran out to give

The commander of the naval fleet, Tang Qiuquan, sent a telegram. Just after returning, Tang Qiuli had another telegram to send. Liu Xinlan was full of energy, and she was enjoying being with her beloved, but she also felt a little tired.

She gave Tang Qiuli an angry look, pursed her lips and said, "Qiu Li, are you going to exhaust me to death? It's really hard to be your confidential staff officer. Otherwise, I'll go back to the staff office!"

After saying that, she sat opposite him coquettishly and kept rubbing her shoulders.

Tang Qiuli's mind has been fully devoted to the plan for the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet. His brain is running at high speed, thinking about various possibilities, existing risks, the complicated situation in Southeast Asia, and the available resources.

Opportunities are constantly being arranged and combined in my mind. Although the general outline and main plan have been determined, no one can replace myself in terms of the details involved, as well as the timing. This should be the advantage of being a man of two generations.

Bar!

This battle can be said to be a big gamble. Originally, the chance of victory was certain, and he controlled the rhythm of the battlefield. Ito just passively responded. Now, there is an additional third fleet of Kiyoshi Hasegawa. This unexpected factor is the most critical

Yes, he still has to capture the Third Fleet, one of Japan's four main fleets, and the difficulty can be imagined.

This plan involves a lot of risks. If it is a land battlefield, Tang Qiuli can strategize and gallop around. With an army of nearly one million, he can look down on any Japanese army. But on the sea, it is only the Japanese and himself.

Compared with China's maritime military strength, it cannot be said that it is at a disadvantage.

In the battle to capture the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet, Tang Qiuli used all his cards. The biggest bargaining chip was Brother Qiuquan's naval fleet, which had been dormant for two years and was fighting for the first time. It had to face such a powerful opponent.

During the match, Tang Qiuli was very worried.

All external forces must be used. Tang Qiuli's thinking has expanded to this Southeast Asian region, and he has also thought of that person and the forces behind him. This time, it is not only a touchstone, but also to pull him into the water. He has a plan in mind, and naturally

My name is Liu Xinlan.

His girlfriend's sweet complaint brought Tang Qiuli's mind back to reality. He was stunned for a moment, then held Liu Xinlan in his arms and gently stroked her long black hair. Liu Xinlan hugged his waist tightly, and for a moment

, neither of them spoke. For some reason, Liu Xinlan had a sense of responsibility to share the joys and sorrows, and share weal and woe. Yes, everything about herself has been intertwined with this man and cannot be separated.

Shaoqing, Tang Qiuli held Liu Xinlan's face with both hands, looked at her clear eyes, and said softly: "Xinlan, follow me. You have endured hardship. I think you should go back to the staff office. I will choose again."

A confidential staff officer, I

I can't bear to have you stay with me like this all the time. If time goes by, you will get old!" After saying that, he kissed her smooth forehead. Tang Qiuli said the truth. Mei Ting and Mei Xue did not bear any responsibility.

through such complicated work.

Although the two of them were by his side, their workload was very relaxed, but Liu Xinlan was different. As his confidential staff officer, she had to send and receive a large number of messages every day, running back and forth between various departments in the division. Some time ago,

During several operations on the Yangon battlefield, the number of messages, various orders, and instructions sent and received by the division headquarters can be described as massive.

Hearing Tang Qiuli's words, Liu Xinlan opened her eyes wide, like a child who made a mistake, and hurriedly defended: "Qiu Li, you want to drive me away? I won't leave. Are you just saying a few words? Really?

You are so petty, tell me, Sir, what are your orders?" After saying that, he took out his notebook seriously and got into work mode.

Tang Qiuli smiled silently. The feeling Liu Xinlan gave him was different from that of his two wives and Xiaoling. How should I put it? With Liu Xinlan beside him, his heart felt very happy and quiet. Looking at Liu Xinlan's appearance,

Tang Qiuli said: "Counsel Liu, Secretary Liu, record it!"

"General MacArthur, First Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces China and Southeast Asia Theater, received intelligence information that the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet and local reinforcements will soon pass through the Strait of Malacca and pass through the Andaman Sea to support the Yangon battlefield. In order to

Securing the Rangoon War

In order to achieve the goal of completely eradicating Japanese power in Southeast Asia, I urge you, General, to take all necessary means to block the Strait of Malacca, prevent the Japanese reinforcements, and ensure that our ** Division troops launch a general attack on Yangon.

It went smoothly.”

Liu Xinlan stood at attention solemnly, "This is the teacher's seat. I will send out the telegram immediately." Tang Qiuli was furious. He went over to use his claws and rubbed the girl hard. Liu Xinlan's face turned red and she screamed and ran away in a hurry.

Leaving behind a string of crisp laughter like silver bells.

Tang Qiuli knew too well that with this telegram, he could not persuade MacArthur, who was as cunning as an old fox, to attack the Japanese reinforcements. He even thought about MacArthur's expression when he received his telegram. He would definitely give him a

Innocent and childish comments, and they will laugh at and despise themselves in their hearts.

Although preventing the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet and reinforcements from passing through the Strait of Malacca, it was just a simple task for MacArthur. Without dispatching warships and aircraft, the US military's large-caliber, long-range shore artillery on Sumatra Island could reach the other side of the strait.

We went to Singapore to block the Strait of Malacca, just for fun.

Tang Qiuli clearly understood MacArthur's intention to play both sides, to gain benefits from both sides, and to sit back and watch the fight between the Japanese and himself. However, he had to send this telegram to MacArthur. According to the Allied Supreme Military Conference in Manila,

, signed the Alliance Military Mutual Assistance Agreement, the Americans had no reason to refuse to attack their Japanese opponents passing through the Strait of Malacca.

Tang Qiuli wanted to throw such a big problem to MacArthur and see what he said with this hot potato in his hand. In theory, he would be "first" and also for Qiuquan's fleet, he would tighten the exit of the Strait of Malacca.

, laying the groundwork, the situation in the Strait of Malacca is complicated, with Singapore occupied by the Japanese army on one side, and Sumatra Island occupied by the Americans on the other side.

He did not want his only fleet to be in a dangerous situation of being attacked from both sides. MacArthur did not take action to block the Japanese reinforcements, and the Japanese division fleet sailed to the Strait of Malacca as a matter of course. Although the Americans were reluctant, they had no excuse to stop it. Besides,

If the Americans really agreed to his request, and Tang Qiuli was really reluctant, it would ruin the plan to move Kiyoshi Hasegawa's Third Fleet into the Andaman Sea.

Tang Qiuli had figured out what MacArthur was thinking and would never take action against the Japanese. What he wanted was to see how MacArthur would reply to him, so that this extremely selfish and cunning American would have a headache!

When Tang Qiuli was very concerned about Hasegawa Kiyoshi's Third Fleet, there was a quarrel between the commander-in-chief of Japan's Southeast Asia Expedition Force, General Ito Genzaburo, and the commander of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet, Lieutenant General Hasegawa Kiyoshi.

It was very unpleasant. Although due to their different identities, the tone of the exchanges and messages was as courteous and peaceful as possible, but the tit-for-tat and the strong smell of mutual reluctance were clear to everyone in their hearts.

The focus of the disagreement centered on the choice of where to land the reinforcements. Hasegawa Kiyoshi insisted on his opinion and landed in Bangkok in the Gulf of Thailand. The fleet would provide artillery and air support to ensure that the army captured the beachhead. Hasegawa Kiyoshi's reasons, and

Tang Qiuli analyzed the same thing: save time so that reinforcements can be put into the battlefield as soon as possible.

In fact, Hasegawa Kiyoshi had his own plans. This reinforcement and escort mission made the arrogant Japanese Navy Vice Admiral very unhappy, "What? Did the General Staff make a mistake? Ordered the Third Fleet to return to Ito Yanzaburo.

Are you kidding me, the old guy is taking command? Does Ito understand the navy? Can he command warships in naval battles? The General Staff is really messing up!" Since receiving the order from the General Staff, Hasegawa Kiyoshi has been so indignant along the way.

think.

I felt unhappy and had to be commanded by an amateur, Ito, who was usually not very good at it. Hasegawa Kiyoshi was not at all enthusiastic about this mission. At least he escorted the army's reinforcements to the battlefield of Indochina, even if the Third Fleet

The task was completed,

In this case, it is convenient to disembark there and take a detour to the Andaman Sea. It will take an extra seven or eight days of bumpy seas and cross the Strait of Malacca under the eyes and noses of the Americans. It is thankless and a bit dangerous.

I, Kiyoshi Hasegawa, will not do this.

Besides, if the army wins in Rangoon, the navy will not get any credit or honor. For the sake of the interests of the empire, I, Kiyoshi Hasegawa, will neither hold back nor provide help in times of need, and send reinforcements ashore.

After everything is over, we have to wait for that old guy Ito to yell around, or let the navy take the lead.

After receiving a telegram from Kiyoshi Hasegawa, Ito was not furious to death: "Is this guy who floats on the sea all the year round and has no roots, stupid and naive, or is he deliberately going against himself? The reinforcements and fleet are still floating in the South China Sea.

You just started fighting with me in the ring, you are such a bastard, you bastard!" Ito cursed angrily.

In Ito's opinion, Hasegawa Kiyoshi's opinion was ridiculously naive. He could not imagine that landing from the Gulf of Thailand would be a main force of Tang Qiuli's army there, with a strength of 150,000 to 600,000 troops. How many reinforcements would there be?

?The four first-class divisions only have about 100,000 people. Could it be that this fool Kiyoshi Hasegawa asked the troops to reinforce Yangon to kill 150,000 to 60,000 people in the ** division first, killing every one of them, and then drive straight into hundreds of people?

Kilometers, join the Yangon battlefield?

"What a stupid pig and idiot" Ito couldn't help but cursed again. --over-->
