Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 3157: Here comes the cannon fodder

Lieutenant General Zhao Yuhe, the chief of staff, did not understand the division commander's calm attitude and did not take the important matter of 100,000 Italian troops stationed in the Japanese archipelago at all. However, Zhao Yuhe cannot be blamed for being nervous.

For people of this era, the pressure that foreigners and the armies of foreign countries have brought to the Chinese people is the result of nearly a hundred years of accumulation, instinctive vigilance and heaviness, and Italy is one of them.

"What are you looking at me doing?" Seeing Zhao Yuhe's thirst for knowledge, Tang Qiuli interrupted his thoughts and said, "Go and do what you have to do, don't hang around in front of me!"

Seeing what the teacher said, Zhao Yuhe had no choice but to swallow the words when they came to his lips and left full of doubts.

Five days later, General Feisald, who was full of confidence and had a savior mentality, led more than 100,000 Italian soldiers who were also very confident and set foot on Japanese soil. He looked proud at the welcoming scene of huge crowds of people on the pier.

With a smile, he told the chief of staff: "Order all soldiers to show the most powerful side of the Italian Royal Army. Remember, we Italians are gentlemanly!"

Regarding the arrival of the Italians, the Japanese received them with the highest standards. Emperor Hirohito personally went to the port of Yokohama to greet them. They were accompanied by all the senior officials from the base camp. As an old acquaintance of Admiral Feisald, Koichi Mineuchi,

They were busy in front and back, making arrangements to introduce each other.

Emperor Hirohito held a grand banquet in the palace to entertain military officers above the rank of major general of the Italian reinforcements. During the banquet, Emperor Hirohito did not hesitate to use the most beautiful words and enthusiastically praise the Italian brothers, his eager-to-do and righteous allies.

Never leave Mussolini. The great and selfless Italian boys, a beautiful and powerful country on the Mediterranean.

It makes Hirohito himself seem to have been good friends with Mussolini, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy, for many years. In fact, these two of the three fascist giants in the world only know each other's names so far.

Never seen a single face.

The enthusiasm of the Japanese and the delicious oriental food intoxicated Feisald and his senior generals. The praises of Japan's supreme ruler also intoxicated the Italians, who definitely felt elated. Of course, in the banquet room

Petite and charming Japanese girls are also indispensable, making these Italians who already have excess male hormones feel that coming to Japan is almost like paradise.

As Mussolini's plenipotentiary, General Feisald's speech was simple and full of confidence. He did not mention a word about the content of the agreement between Italy and Japan. He also did not ask the Japanese to sign any agreement on the spot, because there was no agreement.

It was necessary, he knew very well, and the Japanese would never dare to deny it. Otherwise, they would not be able to withstand Italy's anger.

At the end of his speech, General Feisald said gracefully: "We, the Italian army, came to Japan this time to fight. We came to solve the problems of our allies. Therefore, we sincerely ask His Majesty the Emperor and all of you to support us."

We welcome simplicity in everything, and it will not be too late to celebrate when we have defeated the Chinese!"

Admiral Feisald's words naturally won a burst of thunderous applause. The welcome banquet did not last long. This was the proposal of His Excellency the Admiral. During the war, everything was kept simple and there was no more time.

Wasted on the wine table.

When leaving the palace, in the car of His Excellency General Feisald, there were two more Japanese girls who could be regarded as characters. Other senior officers also returned with their beauties. This was carefully prepared by the Japanese for their allies.

The gift was also the real reason why he was in a hurry to end the banquet. Your Excellency, the elegant and elegant general, was very grateful to the Japanese ally for their carefulness and consideration.

The Italian left with the Japanese beauty in his arms, leaving behind a messy banquet scene. The smile on Emperor Hirohito's face completely disappeared. He was filled with panic. As the majestic Emperor of the Empire of Japan, he, for the sake of a small

The Italian admiral personally hosted the welcome banquet, trying to please Italy, offering nice words for free, and even sending beauties as gifts, just to please Italy.

The person he came to greet in person should be Hitler or Mussolini at the level of head of state. As for the son-in-law Feisald, he was just a small army general, and it was enough for Minai to take charge of the reception.

Well, when did the Japanese Empire fall to this level? Emperor Hirohito felt humiliated and sat blankly for a while. He asked his attendant to call Koichi Yoneuchi.

"My dear Minai, tell me truthfully, are the Italians really responsible? Are they really the opponent of the soldiers under the devil's command?" Emperor Hirohito stared at Koichi Minai with a sullen face and a tired look like a knife.

, asked nervously.

Seeing His Majesty the Emperor, who had been so cheerful just a moment ago, clouds had gathered in his eyes in the blink of an eye, and he even called himself over. Koichi, who had become a man, immediately understood what was going on, but Hirohito's question made him even more embarrassed.

After murmuring for a while, Mineguang said after careful consideration: "Your Majesty, regardless of whether the Italian army is as brave and good at fighting as they said, after all, the imperial army has never fought with them, but one thing is that it is the victory of the empire.

, successfully dragged the Italians into this war between us and the Chinese. After that, even if the Italians want to stop, it will probably not be easy!"

In fact, Koichi Yoneuchi's answer was simply to avoid the truth. It did not solve Emperor Hirohito's inner doubts, but it scratched his itch and successfully tied the Italians onto the Japanese Empire's chariot. It was a huge

Victory, it no longer matters whether the Italian soldiers can fight or not.

The greedy Mussolini would not have watched more than 100,000 Italian soldiers being wiped out by the troops of the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli in Japan. He would naturally have a steady stream of blood transfusions. It would be impossible to stop and throw away. Thinking of this, Hirohito

The emperor's sallow face showed a satisfied smile and said: "Thank you for your hard work, my dear Minai. If we can defeat the Chinese invasion this time, you will be the first to contribute!"

Minai Hikaru happily left, and Hirohito called over to Prince Zai Ren. He was still very relieved about this scheming younger brother. Hundreds of thousands of Italian soldiers were added out of thin air. He still had to ask what Zai Ren's plan was.

Zai Ren is the person in charge of local defense.

When Zai Ren arrived, Hirohito asked directly without any nonsense: "Zai Ren, how are you going to deploy the more than 100,000 Italian soldiers?"

Zai Ren smiled slyly and replied: "Brother Emperor, since the Italians are full of confidence, I am going to put them in the most advanced positions at the east and west ends of Honshu Island to block the landing force of the China Division.

The one who can do it will work harder! I think the Italians will be happy to show their strength!"

Hirohito laughed at that time. This cunning brother wanted to put the Italians at a strategic position for the China Division to cross the sea and land. To put it bluntly, he wanted to use the Italian soldiers as cannon fodder to weaken the offensive spirit of the China Division soldiers.

As long as you understand it in your heart, of course you won't say it out loud.

"Okay, go ahead and make the deployment, but don't make it too obvious. Provide what you should provide as much as possible. After all, the Italians are here to reinforce us!" Zai Ren looked at his brother with satisfaction and said in a lecturing tone.

"Please rest assured, brother, there will never be any mistakes!" Zai Ren was even more confident. Using his own scheming, it was a piece of cake to plot against the coquettish Feisald. All he needed was a few kind words and a few compliments.

Hat, you can win it in minutes!

Emperor Hirohito didn't know, and neither did Zai Ren, that the Japanese were arrogant again. They were making a fatal mistake. They regarded the Italian army as a traditional European power. It could become one of the two strongest teams on the European continent.

1. The Italian army, which has been doing well so far and is on par with Germany, is no better. How much worse can it be?

Emperor Hirohito and Prince Zaihi had never dealt with the Italians. They didn’t know what these bully-assed young men were like. Koichi Mineuchi, who rushed to the North American battlefield to negotiate, had no dealings with Takami, the commander of the German South American Army Group.

He could not and did not dare to contact Marshal Er. He was poaching, and it was too late to avoid the Germans!

If Koichi Mineuchi had come into contact with Rommel and listened to the German god of war's evaluation of the Italian army, Koichi Mineuchi would not have invited these Italian princes as saviors even if he risked having his head chopped off by Emperor Hirohito.

Japan.

As for Rommel, how could he not know that the top boss of the Japanese military, Koichi Yoneuchi, sneaked to the North American battlefield and jumped into the arms of the Italians. He disdained and did not want to have contact with the Japanese. Between the Japanese and the Italians

He didn't want to know what was going on, and he didn't even want to know that the Japanese had invited away the Italian troops that he was tired of to death, and it was too late for him to thank them!

Many factors were intertwined. Due to a combination of circumstances, Prince Zai Ren, who was responsible for the defense of Japan's mainland, handed the two most important defense directions into the hands of the Italians. One of the directions was chosen by Tang Qiuli.

One of the key landing areas is the line from the southernmost Yamaguchi of Honshu Island to Hiroshima across the Korean Strait from Busan on the Korean Peninsula.

The Italian army rested for three days in the Tokyo area. After feasting on the delicious oriental food, with nostalgia for the Japanese girl in Ginza, Tokyo, the Italian army divided into two groups and marched to the defense location designated by Prince Zain to serve as a guard for the Japanese.

Cannon fodder.

Three days later, a huge fleet appeared in the waters near the Ogasawara Islands. Following the fleet was an even larger troop transport fleet, the Southern Fleet of the Division, the Korean Marine Corps, and most of the Sulu Mobile Corps.

, the southern assist force formed by the army arrived here within the planned time.

After leaving Australia, the sea voyage for more than a week was uneventful. I did not encounter a Japanese navy warship, a Japanese reconnaissance aircraft or a patrol aircraft on the way. Therefore, the whole of Japan would not know that a Japanese navy

The division fleet and the fleet carrying hundreds of thousands of soldiers have approached the southern part of Japan's Honshu Island.
