The situation was gradually improving, and when Hu Zhiyong was preparing to deal with the Japanese troops in Maluku Province, he received letters of distress from Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. They all knew about the situation in Myanmar, and they all envied the people there living in freedom.
"You want me to send troops?" Hu Zhiyong had to go to meet him, and the person he wanted to see was the third young master of the Hu family.
"Master, send troops!" Hou Dashun was extremely anxious and wanted to take advantage of the enemy's misfortune and secretly kick him from behind!
"No!" For the three countries with many mountains, many ditches, and many forest belts, he did not have that many troops to deal with the Japanese army. Besides, he must have sufficient benefits to help them drive away the invaders!
The people from the three countries were all private patriot organizations. Hu Zhiyong was surprised: "Which of you can represent the country? In war, victory is achieved with steel and life. I don't know what you have!"
The visitor from Cambodia was a young man who was only 20 years old. He stood up and said passionately: "Third Young Master, I am the Prince of Cambodia, and I can represent my country!"
"Sihanouk!" Hu Zhiyong was excited. This is an old friend of the Chinese people. He didn't expect to be so young and handsome!
"Do you know me?" Sihanouk was stunned. He had just left school and was studying at the Sommel Cavalry and Armor School in France. It had only been a year since he returned to China to inherit the throne due to the war.
"Of course, you are a hereditary royal family of Cambodia." Hu Zhiyong smiled: "Tell me your requirements."
"Help me drive away the islanders!" Sihanouk said firmly.
Hu Zhiyong hesitated for a moment. It was difficult for him to answer this question, because fighting a war is not as simple as just talking. But he still said: "If you want weapons, Hong Kong has plenty of them. Can't you form your own army?"
Sihanouk said angrily: "The islanders have occupied our land, and I don't even have a place to train troops!"
"Hahahaha!" Hu Zhiyong laughed: "Cambodia has a land area of 181,035 square kilometers and a population of nearly 10 million. As long as you sincerely resist Japan, it is impossible for the little devils to control every inch of your land!"
"I would rather spend my family property and savings and let your troops serve as instructors for me!" Sihanouk stood up: "We are preparing to form an air force, tanks and army. I have already brought the gold!"
Cambodia's mineral deposits mainly include gold, phosphate, gemstones and oil, as well as a small amount of iron and coal. The forestry industry produces the most valuable teak, ironwood, rosewood, ebony, white sandalwood and other tropical forest trees, as well as a variety of bamboo.
kind.
Thinking of this, he motioned Sihanouk to sit down and said kindly: "I can meet your request! If you don't want Cambodia to be in war for a long time, you must establish your own direct force!"
"Okay, this is the amount of gold and jewelry. Please use your plane to transport them back!" Sihanouk was very anxious and wished that Hu Zhiyong would send troops there at this moment.
"Hou Dashun!"
"arrive!"
"Lead a division and cooperate with the navy and an army from Huang Jinshan in Myanmar to quickly attack Phnom Penh!" Hu Zhiyong made up his mind and immediately decided to implement thunderbolt measures.
"yes!"
Hou Dashun smiled. He was acting together on land, sea and air. Although he did not lead as many troops as usual, this was the first time that he could personally command the navy to participate in the war.
The Cambodian people left, leaving only the Vietnamese and Thai people. They looked at each other and said awkwardly: "We are a non-governmental organization, we have no gold and no power."
"I can support you with a batch of infantry weapons, and I hope you can establish your own territory. Vietnam and Thailand both have their own specialties. They can develop them and exchange them with me for more valuable weapons!"
Of course Hu Zhiyong would not send troops in vain. Between countries, there are only permanent interests and no permanent friends. He would not be stupid enough to give cutting-edge weapons to these people for nothing.
When these people heard that they could support their weapons, they said happily: "How many are there?"
"The weapons given to you two divisions are quite a lot, right?" Hu Zhiyong smiled sweetly: "I hope you can let me see your abilities!"
The South China Sea Navy consists of four missile speedboats, two destroyers and a giant industrial ship. There are fifteen troop transport ships, full of tanks, and armed personnel began to drive westward.
The Tianhua Navy suddenly sent troops to the Gulf of Thailand, which frightened the Japanese army. They watched carefully to determine where these people would attack. Cambodia, the Commander-in-Chief of the Eighteenth Front Army of Thailand, Akito Nakamura, is stationed in Cambodia
The commander, General Mamoto, has understood that they are going to attack the small country in the northern part of the South China Sea!
When the Japanese army entered Myanmar, they claimed to come to Myanmar to eliminate the rule of British imperialism, liberate the Burmese people, and establish a "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere." Therefore, when Tojo announced that "the first anniversary after the Japanese army drove away the British army will be
When Burma declared independence, all Burmese people cheered and lined the streets to welcome the invading Japanese troops.
Some of the Burmese took the initiative to lead detours to the British army, some tipped off information, some spread anti-British rumors, and some even formed the "Burmese Independence Army" to fight together with the Japanese army. But within two months, the Japanese army's actions began to go out of shape.
First, they used the worthless Japanese military coupons to extort silver coins from the Burmese people. Then the Burmese people witnessed the same as the Japanese and British troops, transporting wood, oil, and grain, no matter how much, back to their country. It turns out that the imperialists do not care about skin.
Whether it is white or yellow, the heart is always black.
"Baga, their target is Cambodia!" Akito Nakamura saw the warship approaching the shore, and of course he could see where Hou Dashun was going to attack.
"Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do?" General Zhenben was very sad. He only had one brigade in Cambodia, and more than 3,000 people were trying to deal with this fast tank force armed to the teeth. They could only be moths to the flames!
"Withdraw!" Nakamura Akito warned Mamoto with a sullen face: "Restrain your subordinates and stop robbing Cambodia. Once you piss them off, our hundreds of thousands of troops in Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos will all be smashed to pieces!"
"Hayi!"
"The Japanese troops have withdrawn!"
"The king has returned with his army!"
“Cambodia is independent!”
Hou Dashun's troops were greeted by bursts of cheers. The mighty tank divisions marched in formation towards Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. Phnom Penh, a city in the delta between the Mekong River and Tonle Sap Lake, has already been occupied by millions of people.
There was a human wall lined up for dozens of miles.
The royal palace is a group of buildings with golden roofs and yellow walls, including more than 20 large and small palaces such as the Zencharya Hall, the Golden Hall, the Silver Hall, the Dance Hall, and the Treasure Hall. The corridors are imitated by the reliefs of Angkor Wat.
The Tsengcharya Hall, with its carved beams and painted roofs and glazed tile roof, echoes the shining golden light of the Polemolokot Pagoda on the left, and the scenery is spectacular. There is a Treasure Hall in the Golden Hall, which is dedicated to displaying treasures.
Among all the buildings in the palace, the Silver Palace is the most gorgeous. The ground is paved with more than 4,700 carved silver tiles. In the main hall, there is a Buddha statue about 60 centimeters high, carved from a whole piece of jade, which is crystal clear and is a treasure of Cambodia.
Therefore, the Silver Palace is also called the Green Jade Temple. There are also two large and small Buddha statues made of pure gold in the Silver Palace.
"Fortunately, fortunately!" Sihanouk listened to the old prince telling the story of the Japanese army's launch, and knew that the place had not been plundered and burned. He wiped his sweat and said to Hou Dashun: "We can let the troops enter the city."
"We are not entering the city." Hou Dashun smiled slightly: "Prince, you have a lot to do. First arrange the officials from various places, and quickly give me outstanding young people, and I will help you build your own army."
Hou Dashun was still very happy without a fight. If it weren't for the mighty navy and sophisticated tank force, the little devil would never have quit so "humbly"!
Huang Jinshan personally brought two divisions over and met with Hou Dashun at dark time. Today's 6th Army really looks like an elite unit. Hou Dashun smiled and said: "Old commander, they have all been trained in the mountains?"
"Yes!" Huang Jinshan said cheerfully: "There are many mountainous areas in Myanmar. We are fighting against those troublesome parties and conducting training at the same time. The Myanmar army has established 400,000 people. I have reduced the Sixth Army and the 66th Army into four capable divisions, two
A logistics engineer."
"Leave one division for me, take this division back with you!" Without the war, Hou Dashun did not want to leave too many troops behind.
"Okay, this can reduce your logistical pressure." Huang Jinshan waved his hand for the commander of the First Division to come over: "Xiao Wang, you stay."
"Yes!" Xiao Wang used to be Hu Pengsheng's squad leader, and he was very familiar with Hou Dashun.
After seeing off Huang Jinshan and the Second Division, Hou Dashun said to Sihanouk who came: "The first step we have to do is to build an airport and a transportation terminal."
"I have arranged it." Sihanouk was very excited. He did not expect that things would go so smoothly. But he knew that these people would not live here forever and must build their own armed force.
"Commander Hou, my plan is the same as Myanmar's, to form an army of four to five million. In addition, I need three thousand transport vehicles, one hundred off-road jeeps and ten cars. Please calculate the price."
Hou Dashun laughed loudly: "You can send a minister of commerce to Hong Kong. Only Commander Long has the authority to do these things!"
"Okay, I still need a lot of supplies, so I might as well get them all in Hong Kong!" Prince Sihanouk nodded excitedly, preparing to ask his father to handle this matter.
"Your Excellency, you must develop your own resources so that everyone has food to eat, clothing to wear, and housing to live in. As long as they can live a good life, there will be no more civil strife! Cambodia has cash crops such as rubber and pepper.
It has the advantages of palm sugar, tobacco, hemp, cotton, etc., and is rich in valuable teak, ironwood, rosewood, ebony, white sandalwood and other tropical forest trees. Exporting it in exchange for our supplies is better than buying it with gold!"
Hou Dashun has followed Hu Zhiyong for so many years, and of course he understands what he needs. Opening a mine and selling equipment will be a matter for the future. What they need to do now is to buy the best things here, so that their business can take a big step forward!
"Don't worry, I will learn from Myanmar's model, and the workers, farmers, merchants, students, and soldiers will carry out practical actions in an all-round way!" Sihanouk burst into tears: "The French and the islanders are here to plunder our resources. Only you can use the materials to make fair transactions!"
"
"We are neighbors!" Hou Dashun smiled strangely: "Of course, we are businessmen and we must do fair business!"
"I really envy you guys!" Sihanouk smiled. He sent fruits, food, and a large amount of meat and white flour rice to Hou Dashun's troops: "Tomorrow, the first batch of new recruits will be here.
When we arrive, we will definitely not accept those who are not qualified, I will build an army just like yours!"
