Chapter 1005 Change Strategy
1005 In Australia, on the Japanese base camp, the emperor sat high above and looked at the ministers below, and felt very angry. Of course, he was not angry with the ministers, but with the Chinese.
Originally, Japan thought that even if their new weapons could not be sent to China in a short time, they could not block Chinese troops. After the Chinese troops reached the Heilongjiang border, they would definitely not continue to fight forward, because after crossing the border, it would be the Soviet land.
The Soviet Union and China's relationship, due to the treaty signed between Japan and the Soviet Union, once reached its coldest moment. No one expected that the Soviet Union and China had signed a new agreement. The Soviet Union gave up the land they occupied for hundreds of years and returned the land to China.
Now, Japan knows that China will not stop when it hits Heilongjiang. They will definitely continue to attack north, which means that their millions of troops in the Far East will face the danger of attacking on both sides.
Chinese troops attacked from the south, while Soviet troops were still defending the west, and Japanese troops had to face two powerful enemies at once. The most important thing was that this time, China's vanguard was actually Hu Bin's team. This person who was afraid of all Japanese generals, as a vanguard, would immediately make the generals unstable their morale.
"What should we do now? Chinese troops may go north to attack our troops at any time. I got news before that the troops in Jilin seemed to have no confidence to stop Hu Bin. I heard that Hu Bin has newly formed an armored force, and is it true that the troops in Germany are the same troops?
If it is true, I would like to ask you, can our empire beat China, when will our new weapons be mass-produced? Now our troops are suffering ahead. Are the warriors of our empire not good? Or are you not doing what is going on?" The emperor sat on it and said sternly.
He has a complex relationship with China. He wants to defeat China so that he can prove that Japan is strong, prove that Japan is the number one in Asia, and say no to being suppressed by China for thousands of years.
There was hope, but unexpectedly, it was turned over by China in just a few years. The Emperor himself knew that if it weren't for Germany, Japan might have been fully attacked by China.
Whether they can stop it is a huge question. Therefore, he is very angry about the current situation, and is very angry at the people below.
"Your Majesty, now we must adjust our strategy. The Soviet Union has arranged a large number of troops in the Far East. It is unlikely that we can invade in one go, and China's threat is very close.
I wonder, should we arrange for troops to retreat, or send people to China to talk to China, but I guess it will be difficult to talk, and China will not give us any chance." A minister knelt down there and spoke.
"Retreat? Are you thinking about retreating if you can't win? Caochangchen had already thought about retreating before, saying that he couldn't win against China's armored troops. Is our troops not equipped with anti-tank weapons?
Why did they think of retreating at the first time? The Empire has suffered enough casualties in China. You also know that the population of the Empire is declining seriously. If it retreats, how should we explain to the warriors who are broken in China?" The emperor was very dissatisfied with this suggestion. He would never allow retreat.
Hideki Tojo and Kiichiro Hiranu who were kneeling below looked at each other, and then Hideki Tojo said, "Your Majesty, maybe we can still have time. China may not attack the troops in the Far East so quickly, after all, we attack the troops in the Soviet Union.
If the Soviet Union and China reached a secret agreement, it might be possible, but now, I think, there are not many Chinese troops in Manzhouli, and they may not have the strength to attack our troops. It is very likely that they will wait a few months to attack our troops!"
"Are you sure?" the emperor asked, looking at Hideki Tojo.
When Hideki Tojo heard this, he didn't know what to say. Who can be sure of this matter? Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly and can start fighting at any time.
"What I want is that you can come up with an effective plan to defend China from attacking our Far Eastern troops, rather than asking for your guess!" The emperor said at the people.
Those people heard it and didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty, the new aircraft has been sent, and the tank troops can also be sent to the Far East in half. I think that by then, we and China will not be able to fight.
Now when we fight with China, we are actually suffering from the loss. When we were defending Fengtian, the first one to break through our position was Hu Bin's troops, and the troops from other places also persisted until the time we scheduled.
After all, Hu Bin's troops are limited. According to our latest information, Hu Bin is currently a commander and his troops will not exceed 100,000. Even if Hu Bin's troops can fight ten, I think our troops in Manzhouli can block them!" Kiichiro Hiranuma also spoke.
"Yosi, can our planes and tanks be delivered to the front line as soon as possible?" The Emperor felt a little more comfortable when he heard him say this.
"Hi, it's not impossible to send it in advance, but the combat effectiveness is not guaranteed. After all, our soldiers are not fully familiar with the equipment, so they are sent to the front line like this. I'm worried that we will suffer greater losses." A minister in charge of equipment spoke.
"Yeah!" The Emperor remembered again when he heard him say this.
"Your Majesty, the German Head of State sends a telegram." At this moment, a servant of the Emperor came over with a telegram and handed it to the Emperor. When the Emperor heard about it, he looked at it.
"Baga, we don't know what to do now. Germany actually asked us to restrain the Chinese and Soviet troops and wait until they attacked Moscow! Germany said that they could take Moscow within one month!" The emperor saw the telegram sent by Germany and cursed, but he still told the ministers to listen.
"Your Majesty, if you have one month, I think we will have no problem!" Hideki Tojo said.
"Yo Xi!" The Emperor nodded when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, if Germany can really take Moscow in one month, then China may not dare to attack our Far East troops, because the Soviet Union was defeated.
China faces the attacks of two countries alone. I think it is unrealistic for China to develop just now. "Tianichiro Hiranuma also started to speak.
"Well, but we still need the front-line troops to try our best to block Hu Bin's troops and not let Hu Bin's troops pose any threat to our Far East." The Emperor said.
"Hi!" When the ministers heard this, they nodded and responded.
On the way to Jilin, Hu Bin was sitting on the command car, holding a telegram in one hand and staring at the map hanging inside the command car.
Hu Bin and his team have been marching for more than 5 hours now. Xiang Feng's troops have arrived in the Qinghe area at this time. They have cleared the Japanese strongholds there and are waiting for the arrival of the large troops behind them.
According to Hu Bin's order, tonight, the entire army's troops will rest in the Qinghe area and start attacking Siping's defense tomorrow morning.
"Brother Bin, the telegram from the command center!" Mo She handed it to Hu Bin with a telegram. Hu Bin heard it, took it, and looked at it carefully.
"Commander Peng asked us to intersperse directly, not to care about Liaoyuan and Tongliao's troops, saying that these troops were handed over to other troops to fight. Now our other troops have also begun to march here!" Hu Bin took the telegram and said to Ye Xiaohua. Now Ye Xiaohua is following Hu Bin in a car.
"Is this OK? Didn't we speculate before? Japan deployed its troops like this in the hope of locking us up and then siegeing our troops?" Ye Xiaohua immediately asked Hu Bin after reading the telegram.
"I don't worry about surrounding me. Our troops are not worried about surrounding and breaking through. I am thinking now that if we drive straight in, will it put too much pressure on the troops behind us?
Siping, if the battle goes well tomorrow, we will take this place in one day, and then continue to advance northward to attack the troops in Heilongjiang. I guess that after we have fought the troops in Heilongjiang, the troops behind may not have eaten the Japanese from other places. In this way, we will come back to kill them?" Hu Bin sat there and said.
"What do you mean by Commander?" Ye Xiaohua looked at Hu Bin and asked.
"You call back to Commander Peng and say, if we can win Siping tomorrow, then we will not be in a hurry to continue attacking forward.
I want to attack Liaoyuan, and then not attack Gongzhuling. I want to go around from Yitong to Jilin, first control the airport there, and then according to the conditions and time requirements of the front line, I will consider whether to continue attacking or assist our other troops in the attack!" Hu Bin said to Ye Xiaohua.
"Yes!" Ye Xiaohua heard it, nodded, and then looked at Hu Bin, wanting to hear what Hu Bin could tell him about this deployment.
Ye Xiaohua is now quite humble. Although he has not figured out Hu Bin’s current deployment, others have told him that he will keep his opinions first, and you will know after the fight is finished.
"What's wrong?" Hu Bin saw Ye Xiaohua staring at him, and asked in confusion.
"I think, I want to know what else you have to explain to me? We are armored assault troops, not ordinary troops. Is participating in the siege inconsistent with our purpose of forming this troops?" Ye Xiaohua looked at Hu Bin and asked.
