Chapter 182 Yamamoto's Difficult Decision

Undoubtedly, Chiang Kai-shek's decision this time was quite wise - anyone who still considers himself a Chinese will never forget the glory of his ancestors. Feiyao thought about how majestic and glorious it was when the country enjoyed the name of the Celestial Dynasty when all nations came to visit it.

.However, with the advent of the first and second industrial revolutions, the country missed the opportunity to keep pace with the times and has since become a nominal big country. It coincides with the loss of the country and the national situation is in dire straits. If there can be a country like the past

The subject country once again expressed its intention to submit. What an encouragement this must be to the morale of the people.

Just when Chu Tiange's troops were advancing further towards Bangkok and preparing to attack the city, Ouyang Yun of Bang Nanbiao County was woken up by Liu Kui after two hours of sleep: "Commander-in-Chief, the Military Commission is calling."

After sitting up and receiving the telegram, Ouyang Yun glanced at it and thought about it, then curled his lips and sneered. Then he got up and went to the headquarters next door, and said to the staff inside: "Call Commander Chu and ask them to postpone the attack on Bangkok."

Then he came to Guo Da and asked about the battle situation in Chachoengsao.

Baojun and Byun Jiansheng launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army of Chachoengsao three hours ago. Masuda Tomikawa only had the Okamoto Brigade of the 1st Division and a regiment directly under the front army. There was no strength advantage. In addition,

After Bang Nam Pyo District was captured by the Xue Bing Army, he was worried about being surrounded, so he sent a regiment to defend Pai Sarakham, 25 kilometers northwest of Chachoengsao, in order to maintain the communication point with the 2nd Division. As a result,

Being suppressed and beaten by the three brigades of Baojun and Bian Jiansheng, Ouyang Yun had lost three outlying towns in a row before Ouyang Yun took a break.

Ouyang Yun was very "vicious". He did not immediately lead Guo Da's First Division to evacuate the Japanese army's retreat in Chachoengsao in order to leave room for the Japanese army to retreat, and then make it convenient for Baojun and Bian Jiansheng to move from town to town.

Push forward and use artillery fire to turn Thai towns along the way into ruins.

Guo Da: "Commander Bao called half an hour ago to report that they have captured all the Japanese strongholds in the east, west, and south directions outside Chachoengsao City, and they should now be attacking Chachoengsao City with all their strength."

"Did Willie get in touch with Wavell?"

"Yes, Xiao Song reported to me that Willie asked Wavell about apologizing to us, and his words were quite fierce. Commander-in-Chief, are we pushing the British too hard? The British are used to being arrogant -"

Ouyang Yun took out a pack of cigarettes, handed him one, and then suddenly interjected: "Lao Guo, do you know the French Far East Fleet?"

Guo Da shook his head.

Ouyang Yun lit up a cigarette and took a puff and said, "I'm attracted to the French Far East Fleet."

"Ah, Commander-in-Chief."

Ouyang Yun smiled: "What are you worried about? Are you afraid that I will destroy the current situation of the Indochina Federation by taking it by force? If possible, I don't mind doing it. But the problem is that the French Far East Fleet is now in the Bay of Bengal. If you want to get it

The Far East Fleet must have the help of the British. I originally wanted to seduce Wavell with our advanced weapons and equipment, but there is no need now. Two battleships, three battleships, and twenty-six other battleships of various types, with a total tonnage of fourteen

More than 10,000 yuan—what a bargain!”

Guo Da was thoughtful.

Ouyang Yun was concentrating on planning the French Far East Fleet, but Yamamoto Isoroku in Singapore became restless like an ant on a hot pot. One after another, Kansong sent emergency telegrams, and his tone became increasingly tense.

Not good, and then Masuda Tomikawa passed back the intercepted information that "Ouyang Yun was out of danger", and he realized that he had been fooled. In fact, it was not that he was fooled. When the Marine Corps was first established, the quality of the soldiers was like this, plus the strength of the troops.

It does not have an overwhelming advantage, and its weapons and equipment are far inferior to those of the Xuebing Army. The Thai army is completely incapable of doing anything. These factors combined, it is destined that once the Xuebing Army launches a major offensive, failure will only be a matter of time. But the problem is

, they must not lose the springboard of Thailand, otherwise if they can only open the western expedition front in China from Myanmar, how much price will they have to pay?

The old Japanese thought again and again, and after talking on the phone with Koizumi Minichiro for more than two hours, he finally made up his mind. He first recalled the Hosho aircraft carrier fleet and Ryujo aircraft carrier fleet that had arrived in the Gulf of Thailand waiting for the attack order, and then immediately sent Masuda Tomikawa to

Ordered him to immediately lead his troops to retreat to Prachinburi, join the Second Division there and then retreat to Thongpapong. After gathering the main force of the First Army, he went to Mawlamyine and took over the Fifth Division there to take charge of the battle against Myanmar.

Action. After personally signing the telegram to Masuda Fikawa, the old Japanese sat on his chair and stared at the roof for five minutes, then gritted his teeth and drafted a telegram to Kansong, saying that in order to protect the interests of Thailand, an ally, he was willing to postpone it.

Implement the relevant agreement on the "Japan-Thailand Military Alliance" so as not to give the student army an excuse to continue to invade Thailand. At the end of this telegram, the old Japanese quoted Koizumi's words and wrote shamelessly: "The Empire of Japan will take care of its allies.

It is best reflected through this incident. I believe that through this incident, everyone in your country will be able to better understand who is a friend and who is an enemy."

There are sudden differences in the Thai cabinet's attitude towards Japan and Japan. The military agents who have been lurking underwater can detect it, and the Japanese agents who are active on the water are naturally no problem. It is based on this phenomenon that Koizumi made a judgment.

If the imperial army cannot help Bangkok resist the invasion of the student army, then the pro-Thai cabinet forces will inevitably be strengthened, and may even overthrow the leadership of Phi Phi Kansong. In that case, the status of the Japanese army in Thailand will be embarrassing, and it may even be

Being besieged by Thai troops. Rather than being driven out of Thailand in this situation, it is better to retreat voluntarily. In this way, the excuse for the Xuebing Army to invade Thailand is gone, which is equivalent to helping Kansong. And as long as Kansong

If the Song cabinet does not fall, it is only a matter of time before Japan and Thailand re-allocate. Even if the Kansong cabinet is overthrown, it is not afraid. Once the strength of the Western Expedition fleet increases, how can the Thai army's combat effectiveness prevent the entry of the imperial army. "Your Excellency, the Empire

There are actually only three main enemies in China, China, the Soviet Union, and the United States. Among them, the United States should be the number one enemy. The Soviet Union has its own Germans to deal with them. We only need to send troops to the Far East at the most appropriate time. China, the Xuebing Army

The rampage of a warlord army will not help the overall situation. In time, as long as we control the Pacific, it will be a matter of hands to completely defeat China. Our biggest enemy is the United States. Before defeating the United States, we will let the warlord army run rampant for a while.

Okay," Cheng Koizumi, who spoke on the phone, expressed this view on Japan's current and potential enemies.

It was extremely humiliating for Japan to use its martial arts power to show weakness to an enemy country, especially the Xuebing Army, the enemy currently hated by all the people of the empire. Yamamoto was very hesitant for a while, but it was after hearing this opinion that he made up his mind.
