Age of Conquest Reborn

Tang Qiuquan, commander of the naval fleet of the ** Division, who was commanding the escort fleet to escort the troop transport fleet to Australia, suddenly received an order from the division commander, "Order, the naval fleet will dispatch three additional aircraft carriers on the basis of the existing escort force.

Head to the Australian battlefield, and use fleet carrier-based aircraft as the core combat force to ensure retreat channels for the Australian allies in port areas such as Melbourne and Adelaide!"

After reading the telegram, Major General Xin Xiguo, chief of staff of the fleet, said very puzzledly: "Commander, the previous order of the division commander was that the fleet would not intervene in the Australian war, and even deliberately delayed its arrival in Australia. Why did it suddenly change now?

Order? Completely opposite to the previous order!"

With a playful smile on his lips, Tang Qiuquan said: "The sudden change in the situation on the Australian battlefield has become one-sided. Think about it, Japan's Southwest Pacific Expeditionary Force did not suffer much losses on the Australian battlefield.

Is annihilating all the Allied forces and occupying Australia consistent with the division commander’s intention for the Australian war situation?”

"Absolutely not in line!" Ge Zhenzhuang replied without hesitation, his heart suddenly enlightened. He is a senior general of the Japanese Army and is qualified to know certain core secrets. He naturally knows the strategic intentions of the division commander in Australia, that is, the Japanese army

After fighting with the Allied forces and losing both sides, and dying, the ** division troops took the opportunity to take over Australia. Now, the Japanese army has not suffered much attrition, which is obviously something the division commander is not happy to see. "

"This can easily explain the profound meaning of the commander's order!" Tang Qiuquan said with a smile, "Xi Guo, immediately ordered the Second Squadron on standby at the Yangon Navy and Air Force Base to quickly rendezvous with the First Squadron.

However, with our current carrier-based aircraft alone, we may not have enough troops. The division commander will have follow-up orders!"

In Singapore, where the ** Division Aviation Southern Flying Group Forward Headquarters is located, the commander, Major General Le Yiqin, also received an order from the division commander, "Southern Flying Group, immediately deploy no less than seven fighter regiments and four bomber regiments.

.Garrison the naval and air force base in the Chagos Islands and form an air combat group with the existing combat aircraft at the base. And assign the command of this air combat group to the combat sequence of the Fleet Headquarters!"

"Go to Australia to fight against the Japs! I have nothing to do with you! The division commander is partial! It's not fair. Why should I send troops and let the fleet fight against the Japs?" All the staff officers in the headquarters heard the commander.

There was a piercing wail in the office, and everyone jumped, looking at each other and wondering, what's going on, what stimulation did the commander receive?

On the Australian battlefield, the Japanese army's advance speed can be described as overwhelming. The Allied troops on the second Allied defense line that were breached are now in disarray. The entire front line has been cut into countless disconnected pieces by the Japanese army.

.But the strength of the Japanese troops surrounding them was far smaller than their own.

What's even more strange is that the surrounded Allied troops stayed in the encirclement obediently, neither breaking out nor holding on. They seemed to be waiting for something, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. There were more than 400,000 Allied troops.

The Japanese army soldiers were left behind the main force of the Japanese army that was eager to advance to southeast Australia. The Japanese army surrounding them had only a strength of more than 100,000 people. It was a typical encirclement with big stuff and thin skin.

Moreover, the Japanese army was eager to advance in depth. After tearing holes in the defense line, they roared past and had no time to pay attention to them. Most of these Allied troops still maintained a complete organization, and most of their weapons and equipment were well preserved. They were absolutely

Have the strength to fight again.

Under normal circumstances, the troops who still have the will to fight either break out of the encirclement or hold on to the enemy and fight a bloody battle with the Japanese troops surrounding them. They rely on their absolute superiority in strength to break through the Japanese encirclement, and then chase the Japanese troops southward.

If we fight, we might be able to make a comeback, but we don’t know?

But at this point, the Allied commanders at all levels who stayed to hold their positions, even if they were fools, no matter how deeply they identified with and were loyal to the United States and the British Empire, they probably understood in their hearts, "I'm afraid that I and my troops will become

The cannon fodder of the Allied Forces Headquarters in Australia, look at it, those troops are the ones left behind, and those people were the first to evacuate!"

If you think about it in one place, you will understand the whole thing. The Australian Allied Forces Command already knows that the Japanese army will inevitably launch a full-line attack, and the second line of defense cannot be defended at all. Therefore, the Americans, British and Australians

They evacuated early, leaving us to stop the Japanese army for them. What is even more detestable is that the order issued by the Allied Forces Command explained this as, "Normal troop mobilization in order to establish a third line of defense!"

Originally, the commanders of these Allied troops who were abandoned and used as cannon fodder believed the words of the headquarters, but the ruthless reality was definitely a wake-up call. Not only the bastards who ran away in advance, but also those who were originally on the second line of position

An American division and a British division also fled as early as the sound of Japanese artillery fire, apparently after receiving orders from the headquarters.

"Damn it! We were betrayed by the Americans and British! The lives of Americans and British are valuable, but our lives are not valuable?" the betrayed commanders at all levels of the Allied forces cursed angrily.

.

What a chill! Subsequently, the order issued by the Allied Forces Command to "stop the attack on the spot and never allow half a step back!" was regarded as fart by these heartbroken officers at all levels. No one ignored it, and the order became

I made a pile of scraps of paper and scattered them in the Pacific wind!

The most terrifying thing on the battlefield is that the army has no fighting spirit and morale. The most desperate thing is to be ruthlessly abandoned by the master. The most helpless thing is to be used as cannon fodder to block the enemy without knowing the fate of Lieutenant General Bahlisman and General Fernandez.

The despicable practice and its consequences were finally exposed.

How could Allied officers at all levels who were extremely desperate for the Americans and British return their lives to the masters who had abandoned them? The officers had no fighting spirit, and the ordinary soldiers at the bottom were even more unbearable. General Ito was full of confidence and expected

As a result, it appeared.

"Commander-in-Chief, great news!" Major General Yamaguchi, Chief of Staff of Japan's Southwest Pacific Expeditionary Force, shouted as he excitedly came to General Ito's tent, "Commander-in-Chief, your judgment is really clever!

I sincerely admire you!"

"Commanders at all levels of the divisions responsible for encircling the Allied troops have reported that the Allied troops in the encirclement have begun to surrender unconditionally in large numbers. So far, nearly 300,000 Allied soldiers have surrendered.

, their only request is that the surrendered Allied soldiers and officers be treated as prisoners of war!"

"Hahaha!" General Ito smiled reservedly, but his pride was palpable, "Yamaguchi-kun, there is nothing surprising. It is expected. I conclude that within three days, the surrounded Allied soldiers will

All surrendered unconditionally. You, the chief of staff, will be very busy in the future. Just managing the prison camp is a complicated job!"

"Hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war, hum... Yamaguchi-kun, you shouldn't put all your energy into such trivial matters. You also need to assist me in commanding the troops. The staff can set up a special organization to manage prisoners of war!

"

"Yes! Commander-in-chief, the staff understands!" Major General Yamaguchi replied respectfully, and then hesitantly said, "The few division commanders who stayed to surround the Allied troops thought that so many Allied prisoners of war were of great use to us.

It is a huge burden and difficult to manage, especially now that the war in Australia is not over yet. They suggested that we should solve the problem on the spot and shoot them all!"

"No, no, no!" General Ito's head shook like a rattle, "Yamaguchi-kun, we must clearly tell the division commanders that shooting prisoners of war is not allowed unless they are deliberately escaping. We must

It is clear that after the empire takes over Australia, it will carry out large-scale construction to make Australia a logistics base for the empire to support larger-scale wars. Hundreds of thousands of Allied prisoners of war are free labor and a work machine that creates value for the Japanese Empire!

"

"Australia, which has a vast territory and a vast territory, is short of labor force. The imperial army's campaign in Australia is not to destroy this place. We must keep this in mind. Yamaguchi-kun, do we have any reason to destroy the machines we have already obtained? With the headquarters

In the name of the Communist Party of China, I will issue the order I just issued to all levels of troops. Prisoners of war will never be shot. Any violation will be severely punished!"

Major General Yamaguchi fully understood what General Ito meant, and his admiration became even stronger. Your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief, is really far-sighted!

Major General Yamaguchi then reported: "According to reconnaissance information, we learned that there are about 200,000 Allied troops who retreated early, all Americans and British, and some Australians, who are rapidly heading towards southeastern Australia.

The purpose of retreating in various cities is obvious, just as you feared, trying to rely on the cities to resist stubbornly!"

"With the current pursuit speed of the Imperial Army, it is difficult to annihilate the Allied forces in the wild before they escape into the city! In addition, according to intelligence provided by lurking Imperial agents, in several major large cities in southeastern Australia, the Allied forces

Citizens are being mobilized to build a large number of street fighting fortifications!"

"Humph!" General Ito sneered repeatedly, "The Americans and British have good plans, but how can they succeed? Noda of the United Air Force, isn't he complaining? There is no chance to participate in the war. Send a telegram to Noda, United Air Force

Deploy all combat aircraft, conduct non-stop bombings on the retreating Allied forces, destroy all bridges and roads, and use all means that can slow down the Allied forces' retreat!"

"Tell Noda not to worry about the losses of the United Air Force in the battle with the Allied Air Force, but to inflict maximum damage on the Allied forces that have not been attacked by the Imperial Army before they escape into the city. In addition, order the pursuing troops.

, mobilize all vehicles, carry light weapons, form a number of rapid detachments, get in front of the Allied forces at all costs, and occupy all important cities!"
