It is not a good thing for the helicopter to be exposed in advance, but the fact is exactly the opposite. Flying
Isoroku Yamamoto had already decided on the exact date for a combined land and water attack to launch a landing campaign in Vietnam. However, Yashiro Yukichi suddenly called and reported that he had discovered a new type of fighter aircraft in the Gakuin Army. This type of fighter aircraft can hover in the air and provide ground troops with
Fire support is equivalent to a tank with flying capabilities. He hesitated and postponed the attack date.
"We cannot fight an uncertain battle. We must understand the exact parameters of the new fighter aircraft of the Gakuin Army before launching an attack," he said to Soma Masaru, intending to wait until Toshiichiro Koizumi arrived before making a decision.
This wait lasted more than half a month.
During this period, because the French Far East Fleet returned to the Far East, the situation in the Indochina Federation suddenly became strange. The French Far East Fleet, under the command of Far East Navy Commander Jean Degoux, returned to the North Atlantic in March last year, originally for the purpose of supporting
The mainland resisted the German invasion. However, with the defeat and surrender of France and the establishment of the Vichy government, in order to avoid getting involved in the disputes that threatened the government and Free France, and at the same time, he was also worried about being hunted by German submarines, so he self-righteously entered the Caribbean, and then in
It has been shrinking there for more than half a year.
The Far East Fleet suddenly lost news, and the Commander-in-Chief of the French Army of the Indochina Federation, Martin, lost news after returning home. This gave Ambos, Roland and others the opportunity to stand out. The Xuebing Army entered the Indochina Federation and began to "brutal suppression"
"France borrowed the plantation owner. This news was widely reported by the British and Japanese media and reached Degoul. Under the instigation of the British, Degou was determined to save his own people from fire and water, so he led a fleet through the South Atlantic and entered the Indian Ocean. France
After the Far East Fleet docked at the British dock in the Bay of Bengal, Degu first went to Pondicherry in French India. After meeting with Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army Wavell there, he took a plane provided by the British and landed in Kengtung, Myanmar.
Then he rushed to Hanoi under the escort of a regiment of British troops, preparing to persuade Ang Bos and other army generals to let them tear up the agreement reached with the cadet army and cooperate seamlessly with the British army to expel the cadet army to resist the Japanese army and protect the French territory.
Rights and Interests of the Indochina Federation.
Regardless of his qualifications and strength, after Martin, Degoudou can be regarded as the first person in the French army of the Indochina Federation. Wavell was also ill and sought medical treatment. When his own Far East Navy was weak, he hoped to use the French Far East Fleet to regain peace with Japan and the West.
Only with the capital to challenge the conquest fleet can he encourage the Germans to move eastward, hoping that he can use his prestige to regain control of the Indochina Federation without bloodshed, and then reshape the British-French military alliance.
When planning the "Great Retreat from Singapore", Wavell underestimated the strength of the cadet army and was defeated. In the three-way struggle between Japan and Britain, Britain became the unluckiest one. This time, he planned to
He made complete preparations. Realizing that the Xuebing Army might have fully taken control of the French Army of the Indochina Federation after suppressing the French planters, he asked his most elite "Gomande" to go to Burma with Degu.
, in Keng Tung, Burma, and a regiment of British troops waiting here dressed as Tak Ku's escort troops and followed him into the Indochina Federation.
The English meaning of "Gomand" is commando, which is another name for the British special forces. Tracing its roots, "Gomand" first came from the British army's name for a small group of Boers who were good at raids in the Boer War. The British Army founded
The "Gomande" didn't last long. There were only two platoon-sized "Gomande" under Wavell's command. In order to help Degu regain control of the Indochina Federation, he spent a lot of money and dispatched it all at once.
A platoon.
The British made this series of arrangements in secret. In order to keep it secret, they did not even let Degu know that "Gomande" was involved in this operation.
Wavell underestimated the ability of the intelligence department of the Xuebing Army. He thought that the matter was unnoticed. However, he did not know that more than a thousand "French troops" escorted more than ten French talents into Muang Sin, the northernmost city in Laos.
The intelligence personnel of the army detected it. But they had just arrived at Sangnu, and Ouyang Yun's opinions on how to deal with the matter had already reached Huang Haifu's desk.
So, when Duc Gou was still fifty kilometers away from Hanoi with more than a thousand "French troops", a scene that shocked him extremely appeared. One after another, fighter planes flew from the east and circled at low altitude for several times above their heads.
After that, they formed a formation and "escorted" them along the way until Ang Bos's supporting army joined them, and then Shi Shiran left.
This is not over yet. There are still ten miles away from Hanoi City. A huge mechanized force rumbled over from the opposite side of them. Tanks, armored vehicles, off-road vehicles, self-propelled artillery, military trucks... And when this force came over, they greeted them.
The French army actually ordered the car to drive to the side of the road to let the other party pass first.
Looking at the tanks passing by and the unswerving, majestic young soldiers wearing pen and gun cap badges on the military cards, Degou couldn't help it any longer and asked the top commander of the French army who came to greet them.
Brigadier: "They are the Chinese military's cadets?"
The brigade commander did not hide his envy and said: "Yes. General, what do you think? Isn't it very tough?"
Degu gently exhaled the breath he was holding in his chest and said, "When did the Chinese army have such advanced equipment?"
The brigade commander thought about it seriously and replied: "I can't answer this question, but according to them, it should have happened two years ago."
"Two years ago?" Degu and the British commander, a major general whose rank was hidden, looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
"The report is wrong. Didn't it always be said that the Chinese people are seriously lacking in advanced equipment and they still don't have their own automobile factory? But according to my observation, their tanks are even comparable to those of the Germans," Degu said
, frowned, seriously lacking confidence in whether this trip could make any achievements.
The British were always brooding over the failure of the "Singapore Great Retreat". Wavell always wanted to win back the victory, so he asked one of his major general staff officers to dress up as a colonel and lead a regiment dressed as French troops to escort De Gu into Indochina.
The Federation was only willing to use the "Gomande". But they never expected that the reason why they would receive such high-level courtesy was because Ouyang Yun had his eyes on the French Far East Fleet.
Although the French Far East Fleet is almost nothing compared to the Japanese Expeditionary Fleet, it does contain two battleships. Battleships, a powerful weapon in World War I, seem to have lost their former glory and majesty, but if they are used
For ocean landing battles, it is still the best fire support platform. Why did Ouyang Yun spend so much effort? In the final analysis, it is to attack the Japanese mainland. For efficiency reasons, he will never build another battleship, but this does not prevent him from thinking about it.
Taking the battleships of other countries as their own. Looking at the intelligence agencies of various countries, Hu Tong's qualifications are still relatively young, so until the French Far East Fleet showed up on its own, it has not been able to detect relevant information. Now, since Degu himself came to the door
, if Xuebingjun doesn’t accept it, it would be a shame for Guo Muyi to sacrifice his image to earn a reputation of “cruelty”.
Shocks came one after another, and there were still more when entering Hanoi City.
In the temporary military camp prepared by Ampos for De Gu and his party, De Gu and others saw a group of French officers and soldiers actually training under the guidance of the cadets. Those Gallic roosters who were usually so arrogant that they wished they could put a comb on their heads, actually
Those trainees with the rank of lieutenant were able to curse and fight with fists and kicks without fighting back. They were completely dumbfounded, and they didn't wake up until the drool dripping from their wide-open mouths wet their clothes.
