Republic of China game

Page 505

The date of the final attack was selected around November 1938, 11, almost 15 years earlier than in history, and the target also changed from a warship of the Pacific Fleet to the American island of Hawaii!And this day is nearly one month away from the time when China and Germany will start a war!At this moment, history will develop in a direction that no one can imagine.

Chapter 0788 attack (three) found the joint fleet!

In the carriage of the special train speeding northward, Luo Yaoguo stared at a yellow newspaper spread out on the table. There were a few short lines on the newspaper, which read: October 1938, 10, U24 The USS submarine found a Japanese aircraft carrier formation in the waters south of the Thousand Islands...

Is this the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet?With a buzzing sound in Luo Yaoguo's mind, three words came to mind—Pearl Harbor!If the main force of the Japanese Combined Fleet appears in the Thousand Islands at this time, it seems that there is no good place to go except to prepare for a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, right?Wouldn't it be the idea of ​​going to Vladivostok?Luo Yaoguo raised his head and glanced at a military map of the Far East hanging on the wall of the carriage. It was densely packed with symbols and arrows of different sizes. Most of them represented the Japanese army, but don't look at the lively markings on the map. , In fact, it is nothing more than 5 infantry divisions.It is really not an opponent of the millions of National Defense Forces stationed in the Northeast and Xing'an Province.If the Japanese want to attack China, the Far East coastal area and even the Korean peninsula will be stuck waiting for help, and it is impossible to launch any attack.In fact, the advantage of the Japanese is now at sea, not land, so their offensive should also be launched from the sea!

But who is the Japanese on the side of?Luo Yaoguo took out another document from the stack of documents on his desk, and looked at this information about Japan's participation in the "Anti-Fascist Alliance", his brows furrowed even more.

"A low-interest loan of 300 million pounds will help improve Japan's aero-engines and provide Japan with technical data and samples of the latest 'Spitfire' fighter jets. After the war with China broke out, Britain will provide Japan with 15 million pounds a year. Tons of oil, 1 tons of special steel, 1 tons of electrolytic aluminum, 100 tons of refined copper, [-] million tons of wheat... After the victory in the war, Manchuria, the Far East, and Mongolia will be handed over to the Japanese Empire for management!"

Luo Yaoguo smiled coldly, the British Empire is really the mainstay of the world's anti-fascist front!I really don't know what is the difference between them and Hitler and their own?He actually promised Japan both Manchuria and the Far East!It's no wonder that Japan is about to sign this alliance agreement, but do these Japanese devils really believe that they can compete with China and Germany by relying on Britain and France, two big trees that are about to fall?I really don't know how to live or die!

After returning the information to Wu Ziliang, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau who accompanied Luo Yaoguo back to Wuhan, Luo Yaoguo took a deep breath, pressed the index fingers of both hands on his temples and rubbed them for a long time, then smiled wryly, and said, "These Japanese devils still What trouble! What do they want to do? If I knew this, I should have listened to Zhao Hanyu and wiped out their combined fleet!"

"If the Japanese combined fleet really goes to the northeast, maybe it will be a good thing? Maybe the Japanese are going to poke the hornet's nest in the United States." Wu Ziliang smiled a bit strangely, "Third brother, Japan and the United Kingdom are now allies. Ah! If they raided Pearl Harbor, should the United States declare war on China and Germany? Or on Japan and Britain?"

Luo Yaoguo chuckled, raised his eyes and glanced at Wu Ziliang, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect my fifth younger brother to have a wishful thinking. The Americans declared war on Britain, France and Japan... Is there still a need to fight this world war? It's a pity they won't If there is such a good thing, Britain and France will definitely abandon Japan as soon as possible.”

"However, the relationship between the United States and Britain and France will inevitably cast a shadow." Wu Ziliang shrugged and shook his head indifferently. "Although the leaders of the United States will not blame Britain because the Japanese are crazy, it is hard to say that the common people in the United States would think so. There is the "British-Japanese Alliance" first, and now there is the "British-French-Japanese-Soviet Anti-Fascist Alliance". No matter how you look at it, Japan looks like the British side." Wu Ziliang's views are actually universal, and he didn't take the US-Japan war too seriously.

But Luo Yaoguo didn't think so. What really worried him was that the war potential of the United States would be maximized because of Japan's tricks.And once the United States transforms itself into a war machine and realizes its own strength, life will be difficult for China and Germany!

In addition, while Japan offended the United States, it also posed a huge problem to China and Germany. How should China and Germany treat Japan?Declare war on it?It is obviously unrealistic. This will hand over an extremely easy victory to the United States, and after the victory, the United States may take advantage of the victory to pursue and further get involved in Asian affairs. By then, China's troubles will never end.

However, it is irrational to stand up and endorse Japan. It is not that the strength of China and Germany will not beat the United States.In fact, although the gap between the current industrial strength of China and Germany compared with that of the United States is not small, it is not irreparable.After Germany seized Ukraine, it possessed almost a half of the industrial strength of the Soviet Union. With a little repair, Germany's steel production could easily exceed the 2000 million tons mark.China's heavy industry is still in the process of rapid growth, especially Anshan Iron and Steel in Northeast China, Longyan Iron and Steel in Hebei (the Shougang in history), and Taiyuan Iron and Steel in Shanxi will increase their production significantly in the next few years... China's steel production exceeds 2000 Ten thousand tons is what happened in the past few years.

What Luo Yaoguo was really worried about was that the U.S. military would take advantage of the opportunity of fighting against Japan with the United Kingdom to enter Australia in large numbers!At that time, if China wants to expand in Australia, it will have to face a war with the United States!And China and the United States will definitely become nuclear powers in the next few years!Thinking that the vast and rich Australia might say goodbye to China forever because of Japan's irrational behavior, Luo Yaoguo had the urge to bomb Tokyo with an atomic bomb.

At this time, Natalie's sweet voice sounded from outside the carriage door: "Fu Wen, Minister Chen of the Navy is here."

"Please come in." Luo Yaoguo stood up, walked to the door of the carriage with Wu Ziliang, and greeted Minister of the Navy Chen Si.After welcoming Chen Si into the carriage, Luo Yaoguo didn't care about the pleasantries, so he directly handed over the information about the discovery of the Japanese aircraft carrier formation. "Hualong, the submarine has spotted a Japanese aircraft carrier. They have appeared in the waters south of the Thousand Islands and are heading northeast. The target is probably Pearl Harbor, the home port of the US Pacific Fleet!"

Chen Si looked calm. It seems that the Minister of the Navy has already been reported. He replied with a faint smile: "Assistant Marshal, the Japanese are going to cause trouble for us, but how big the trouble will be depends on the Japanese. If they can win a big victory in Hawaii, or even take down this archipelago... we can move more freely in Southeast Asia. Even East Australia is not hopeless, but we must act quickly!"

"Then Japan will have something..." Speaking of this, Luo Yaoguo himself smiled, and said, "Don't worry about Japan, let them fight the United States to the death, oh, Hualong, just now you said that Japan Possibly taking the Hawaiian Islands?"

"They should be able to do this." Chen Si pondered for a moment, and then said: "If Japan does not take Hawaii, even if it annihilates the Pacific Fleet, it will not be able to maintain its advantage for long, at most six months, if they take Down in Hawaii...the United States will temporarily disappear from the Pacific battlefield for a while before retaking the archipelago."

"Hualong, then do you think we should join Japan in the war with the United States?" Director Wu Da of the Military Intelligence Bureau suddenly interjected.

"No!" Luo Yaoguo and Chen Si replied at the same time.The two looked at each other, and Chen Si explained: "The United States is separated from us by the Pacific Ocean, and it is a large country with a vast territory and extremely developed industries. Wan! If we want to defeat the United States, the only way is to land on their west coast before the United States completes its wartime mobilization, and strive for a quick battle..."

"That's impossible!" Luo Yaoguo rejected Chen Si's idea without even thinking about it.

Chen Si shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "I also know it's impossible...the army may have no problem, but our navy has no possibility of transporting millions of troops to the other side of the Pacific Ocean, and there is also the logistical transportation to afford them. It is completely impossible. When we have this kind of power, the United States has already mobilized and trained millions of troops. So in this battle, we are destined to be invincible to the United States, so why bother to declare war? It is better to just give a small aid Japan, let them stand in front of the mine. Of course, the premise is that Japan can capture Hawaii! Only when the Japanese occupy Hawaii and turn it into a fortress, can they maintain the war. Our assistance can value.

... In addition, Beizhi also suggested that once the United States regains Hawaii, we will immediately declare war on Japan, and we must seize the Japanese mainland before the United States!The United States must not be allowed to turn Japan into an unsinkable aircraft carrier against us China. "

What he said made Luo Yaoguo's eyes brighten, and he said with a smile: "Hualong, your analysis is exactly what I want, Japan's geographical location is very important to us, as long as we control Japan Basically, you don’t have to worry about the safety of mainland China, otherwise it’s hard to say.” At this point, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a cold murderous look flashed in his eyes.

Natalie's voice came from outside again: "Fuwen, Mr. Zhou from the Chinese Communist Party has just sent a telegram. He, Mr. Nehru and Mr. Bose, the leaders of the Indian National Congress Party, have arrived in Wuhan. The two Indian guests want to meet you."

Luo Yaoguo frowned, and in his heart he complained about the great Zhou revolutionaries, but he still said kindly: "Okay, Natalie, call Mr. Zhou back, and I'll talk to him in the living room of the General Staff Headquarters." Two Indian friends meet."

……

In Friedrichstraße Railway Station, Lieutenant General Manstein was smoking a cigar one after another, his thick golden eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and he turned a blind eye to the soldiers coming in and out around him. His cheeks were tense, as if he had encountered something embarrassing.

The well-dressed German soldiers lined up neatly and flowed past him in an orderly manner. Everyone would unconsciously glance at the German lieutenant general, and the slightly skinny man in black military uniform beside him, A middle-aged general with a mixed face.These German soldiers who came down from the Eastern Front could recognize at a glance that this kind of military uniform belonged to the elite Chinese armored force, and this force was probably the most capable force on the entire Eastern Front.In the two wars before and after the demise of the Soviet Union, the Chinese 8th Armored Division performed well, and its edge even surpassed all 12 German armored divisions!

So much so that after the battle on the Eastern Front was basically over, Hitler specifically asked China to send three more armored divisions to Germany to help Germany break through the British and French defenses in northern France...

"Bebel (An Sihua), I didn't expect you to become the commander of China's First Armored Army. It's really great to fight side by side with you."

It was Manstein who spoke. He and An Sihua used to be classmates in the military school and stayed together for several years at the Grosslichfeld Senior Military Academy outside Berlin.But there is no deep friendship, after all, An Sihua's oriental face has kept him in a relatively isolated position in this military academy.

"After all, the German Empire is also my motherland." An Sihua nodded, his eyes swept over the densely packed German soldiers, and his heart was full of emotions.It seems to be back in 1914. At that time, he was still a junior officer of the German Imperial Army. He also went to the battlefield like these young people, preparing to teach his old enemy France a lesson, but the result was regrettable.

"Hehe," Manstein smiled slightly after hearing An Sihua's words. They are both old men in their 50s, and such words are just deceiving each other.He pulled An Sihua, and the two walked side by side to a luxury Mercedes outside the station.After getting into the car, Manstein asked again: "Is the terrain of the Ardennes Forest generation passable for tanks?"

"Well, there is no problem, it should be possible to pass." An Sihua went to the west of Germany and the border area between Belgium and France to inspect the terrain in the past few days.Manstein recently submitted to the German headquarters a plan to raid France through the Ardennes forest area. According to this plan, Germany will use at least one armored army and several army groups to pass through the Ardennes forest, which is weakly defended by the French army, and attack the French army by surprise. In the rear, the main force of the Anglo-French coalition forces assembled in northern France was separated from the rest of France.However, this plan was suspected by some high-level German troops. They were mainly worried that the armored forces would not be able to pass through the complex terrain of the Ardennes Forest, so Manstein turned to Guderian and Answald for help, hoping to pass their on-the-spot investigations. Confirmed that armored forces can pass through the Ardennes Forest.

"I will write a report and submit it to the German headquarters and Mr. Hitler in the name of China's First Panzer Army. I hope it can help you convince them to adopt your plan." An Sihua thought for a while and said: "You The key to the success of this plan is that Belgium and the Netherlands must fight well to attract the attention of Britain and France. I think... our Chinese armored forces will appear there, right?"

Manstein smiled and said: "If the base camp adopts my suggestion, it is estimated that such an arrangement will be made. Compared with the battle against the Soviet Union, your 8th Armored Division performed so well, and it will definitely attract some troops. eyeball."

An Sihua looked at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the window, and smiled wryly, "It seems that being too famous is not a good thing. But it doesn't matter, let's compete with the British and French armored divisions! By the way, When will the war start?"

"Next spring, right? It should be May." Manstein pointed to the car window and said, "It's already October, and we haven't fully expanded on the Western Front, and winter is coming soon. The battle will be fought in winter. So it should be next spring, and the enemy will have a few more months..."

"Why can't we fight in winter?" An Sihua smiled and said, "Compared to the British and French, the armies of our two countries have been trained in the ice and snow of Russia, so are we still afraid of the French winter? ? Besides, sending troops in winter is also a surprise!"

……

"Supplementary text."

At 10 o'clock in the afternoon on October 26, Natalie pushed open the door of Luo Yaoguo's office in the General Staff Headquarters, walked to Luo Yaoguo's side and whispered: "Zhou Enlai of the CCP has arrived with Nehru, Lu Yi, and Boss. We are now waiting for an interview in the reception hall."

"understood."

Luo Yaoguo uttered three words coldly, but he didn't show any intention of getting up.Apparently, he wanted the ah Sans to fully feel his indifference, so that they would make less wishful requests.He was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Natalie, you go and ask Mr. Zhou to come first, I want to settle some issues with him first. It's enough for a few asan to meet, I don't have the time Go and negotiate with them."

"Okay." Natalie smiled, nodded, and turned to leave.

Luo Yaoguo separated the scattered documents on the table, then straightened his military uniform, got up and walked to the office door to wait for Zhou Enlai.

To be honest, he is not very interested in India. India's greatest value is actually its large population, but it doesn't mean much to China.After defeating the United Kingdom, how to deal with this land is really a headache.If it is directly annexed like East Siberia.Wouldn't the hundreds of millions of Asan have become Chinese?At that time, won't China's huge territory be shared by Indians?This is obviously not acceptable, but if India becomes a vassal state, it seems inappropriate to rule like the Central Asian Republic.India's problems are too complicated and messy.If it is entrusted to the local elites to govern, it will inevitably be troubled by China in the future. If it is governed by the Chinese... those senior members of the Kuomintang must not have this kind of ability!That's why he thought of letting the CCP lead the cause of the liberation of the Indian people. However, after Nehru suddenly raised the issue of the McMahon Line some time ago, Luo Yaoguo had a new idea...

Chapter 0789 attack (four) the origin of the South Asian Warring States!

Luo Yaoguo didn't have to wait for a long time, the door of the office opened again, Natalie walked in from the outside, behind her was Zhou Enlai with furrowed eyebrows.

"Brother Enlai, please follow me." Luo Yaoguo did not greet Zhou Enlai either, but led him to a small door next to him.Zhou Enlai didn't ask, but followed him silently.After entering the small door, Zhou Enlai raised his eyes and took a look. It was originally arranged as a study room. There are bookshelves full of books on both sides of the room. There is a large desk by the window, and a large desk has been spread out on the desk. A huge map.Zhou Enlai took a closer look and recognized that it was a topographic map of the British Indian Empire.

"Brother Fuwen, what do you mean?" Zhou Enlai discovered that India on this map was divided into several parts with red and blue pencils, and various names were marked in Chinese.It looks like an independent country!

Luo Yaoguo did not answer this question, but walked directly to the front of the map.Asked rhetorically: "Brother Enlai, is the mission of your party and the Eastern Bureau of the Communist International in India to help the people of all ethnic groups in India get rid of the colonial rule of the British Empire and move towards independence and freedom?"

Zhou Enlai was taken aback when he heard the words, and then looked at the map carefully. On it, India was divided into twelve countries!They are: Republic of Hindustan, Republic of Pakistan, Republic of Bangladesh, Republic of Punjab, Republic of Gujarat, Republic of Rajasthan, Republic of Assam, Republic of Orissa, Republic of Maharashtra, Republic of Naga, Republic of Sri Lanka Republic, Bangalore - Republic of Imbatore.In addition, the Maldives Islands and Andaman Islands above the Indian Ocean are marked with blue sky and white sun!

"What does this mean?" Zhou Enlai took a deep breath and looked up at Luo Yaoguo. "How is India divided into 12 countries? Whose idea is this? Have you considered the wishes of the Indian people?"

Luo Yaoguo smiled slightly, and said: "The current Indian Empire was imposed by the British colonists on the people of all ethnic groups in the South Asian subcontinent. This country did not exist before the arrival of the British colonists! At that time, the people of all ethnic groups in India had their own country." , live in harmony on the South Asian subcontinent, and have lived happily for thousands of years..."

"This is not the real history at all!" Zhou Enlai glanced at Luo Yaoguo, and shook his head dumbfounded. He didn't know whether the other party really didn't know or not. Not all ethnic groups have their own countries. North India has been repeatedly conquered by Islamic warlords from Central Asia or Afghanistan, while South India is ruled by some Hindu princes, and they have never lived in harmony and happiness.

"This will be the real history! Because the history is written by the victors." Luo Yaoguo sneered, and continued on. "We do want to help the Hindustan ethnic group with the largest population on the South Asian subcontinent to strive for independence, but we definitely do not want the Hindustan ethnic group to replace the British to enslave other ethnic groups on the South Asian subcontinent! The major ethnic groups on the South Asian subcontinent should have their own motherland, their own It is the language, our own culture, and we can no longer let the English imposed on the people of South Asia by the British colonists continue to poison the people of South Asia after gaining independence."
