"Your Excellency, this is a telegram from General Miyamoto." Just as Momotake Haruyoshi was worried that something might go wrong with Miyamoto's letter, the communications staff handed over a telegram and witnessed tens of thousands of artillery shells being fired at Miyamoto. The scene where the division was smashing through, and then thinking about the fact that it was impossible for Miyamoto's division to cross the minefield at this time, Hyakutake Haruyoshi's heart sank instantly. He glanced at the communications staff officer and saw that his face turned pale. With fear in his eyes and a low sigh in his heart, Hyakutake Haruyoshi opened the folder.
Only seeing these two lines of words: "...Our unit was severely damaged, almost the entire army was destroyed..." Baiwu felt a buzz in his head, and then his vision turned bright red, and a mouthful of blood spilled from his mouth. Come on, he forced himself to calm down and swallowed it hard, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a full minute or so, he opened his eyes and said to the communications staff officer who became more frightened and uneasy: "Call the headquarters. Just say that the entire Chinese army will be dispatched, and the Southern Front will hold on to the last man."
At that moment, Koizumi Toshiichiro suddenly couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up with a "squeak" sound. Because of the excessive exertion, his left foot suffered a sharp pain. He almost fell on the chair. He held the table with both hands and used Yin Prey. He glanced at the people around him and asked in a hoarse voice: "Miyamoto hasn't sent back the battle report yet."
On the east side of the unknown position, after the adjutant reported that the battle report had been sent to the Southern Front Army Headquarters and asked him if he wanted to send a message to the headquarters, Miyamoto looked away, glanced at the adjutant indifferently, and shook his head, "What a nightmare. ." He murmured to himself and looked at the "Sensi" class vehicle behind him. This lucky "Sensi" class vehicle should be the best preserved among the several tanks nearby. Even the original parts of the vehicle body can still be seen. The color, in Miyamoto's eyes, seems to be a huge irony no matter how you look at it.
One moment I was ambitious and full of meaning, and the next moment I was disheartened and soul-crushing. This kind of experience can be described as a nightmare. Once you consider that the southern front army has failed due to the failure of the raid, the southern front army will It was no longer possible to withstand the frontline of the Chinese Army, and the military industrial base east of Kambang would also face collapse. Miyamoto's heart felt as if it had been cut out in the cold wind, so cold that it almost stopped beating. .
"Why, why is this happening?" Suddenly, he shouted like crazy, and with a "swish" sound, he pulled out the command knife with his right hand.
"Your Excellency." The adjutant rushed up as soon as he saw it. Then, he suddenly saw a flash of white light, and all the strength in his body suddenly drained out of his abdomen. He looked down at his abdomen and saw Miyamoto's command knife stabbing there. His eyes instantly widened, and he let out a miserable howl that didn't sound like a human voice, and his knees went weak and he knelt down.
"Am I not working hard enough? Am I greedy for life and afraid of death? Am I embezzling military pay..." Miyamoto roared, his eyes widened like bells, his face angular and ferocious, and he waved the knife crazily with both hands.
The Japs around him watched in horror as he chopped the adjutant into pieces with his command knife, screamed strangely, or turned around and ran away, or got into the armored vehicle and drove out immediately. In their hearts, a voice screamed: " The general (commander, division commander) is crazy." Soon, everyone left Miyamoto alone there.
Miyamoto was indeed crazy, "Come on, come on, you cowardly China pigs, duel, let's duel." He continued to roar and rushed towards a tree trunk that had been blown bare by artillery fire.
Koizumi Minichiro had already realized that something was wrong before he received the telegram from Hyakutake Haruyoshi. Even so, when he learned from the telegram that Miyamoto's division had been destroyed at the hands of the Chinese heavy artillery force, he still could not control himself. Emotionally, he cursed angrily: "Miyamoto, this bastard."
As the only pure armored force organized by a division under the Japanese Army in Southeast Asia, everyone can feel how much hope Koizumi places on the Miyamoto Division, not to mention the investment required to build a pure armored force of such a scale. Well, you know, after losing contact with the mainland and being cut off from the outside world by the Chinese army, everything the Japanese army in Southeast Asia needed could only rely on self-reliance. In this case, a large amount of steel manufacturing was obtained from the navy The new "Agility" class tank is actually a huge investment gamble.
From the design to the production of the "Min" class tank, Koizumi was involved in the entire process. In Koizumi's view, this type of tank certainly cannot compete with the mandrills of China, but in terms of adaptability to the environment in Southeast Asia, it is definitely better. Any Chinese tank today.
Regarding the "Min"-class tanks and the Miyamoto division, Koizumi expected them to help him counterattack the Chinese army. However, the first battle between the "Min-class" tanks and the Miyamoto division would end like this. , the whole army was completely destroyed without even being able to come face-to-face with the Chinese tanks.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. What made Koizumi even more unacceptable was that the Miyamoto division had no chance to resist throughout the whole process.
"The Chinese have mobilized their entire army. Could it be that they want to accomplish everything in one battle? Your Excellency, the unknown position must not be lost. I have an idea. Should the Northern Front also mobilize its entire army to capture Gan Bang? We still have the strength now." Advantage, if we can capture Ganbang, we can cut off the China Army and bring the China Army into the encirclement." Inoue Narumi said.
Koizumi Toshiichiro had a gloomy face and was noncommittal. If Miyamoto's division was still there, no matter whether they broke into the unknown position or not, Inoue's strategy was worth a try in this situation. But now, the Miyamoto division's entire army was destroyed, and With the loss of most of the Yamato Spirit Team, Koizumi had to think about this question, that is, what if the China Army gave up the breakout and insisted on advancing eastward. Even though there were several divisions supported by the Eastern Front Army in the area west of Singapore, they could not Can they effectively contain the China Army's tank assault? The most worrying thing is that the Singapore area is their foundation in Southeast Asia. Even if they can repel the China Army's attack or even completely annihilate the China Army, if the surrounding areas are If the area is completely destroyed, what will they do in the future? It took him more than two years to build the military industrial base east of Ganbang into what it is now. After this battle is over, Ouyang Yun will give him another Two years?
Many questions were swirling in his mind. After thinking for a full ten minutes, he asked Inoue: "Have the Americans responded to the matter of building a factory in Australia?"
Inoue Narumi didn't expect that he was still in the mood to care about this matter at this time, and shook his head in astonishment.
"Hurry up and contact the Americans. I hope to get a reply as soon as possible. In addition, call Jiang Shang and ask him to speed up the attack. Before dark, I must get the exact news that the entire South China Sea Fleet of China has been destroyed."
