Others continued to look at him silently, Okamura Neiji said: "What has always hindered the empire from conquering China is Britain, France, and the United States. It is only with the strength of these three countries that the European and American countries dare to compete with the empire, and when the three countries think about it,
The more cowardly Britain and France behave today, the more hope the empire has to dominate Asia. Judging from their performance, there will be no hope for the empire to conquer China in the future.
If threatened, the most they can do is protest. The United States is a country that puts interests first. As long as we don’t directly offend them, they might even help us. The Soviet Union is hostile to all countries in the world. Although it is powerful, in a short period of time
They will not become the enemy of our country, so we should conquer China in the shortest possible time to avoid future troubles, and we cannot allow China to continue to develop!"
Shanshan Yuandao: "Okamura-kun, your idea is very good, but I hope you can make a plan for me."
Okamura Neiji was overjoyed to receive the attention of the military boss. He bowed ninety degrees to Shanshan Yuan and said: "Hey!"
The reaction of the Japanese was just an interlude. The Japanese military department just continued to work hard. Anyway, the Xikang Army should not let the Xikang Army have a good life. It could do as much as it can.
Because of the war against Siam, Wang Jiuling flew to Xiangshi. Although the French did not agree to send troops, it did not mean that they did not care that Siam was occupied by the Xikang Army. Eastern Siam was entirely within the French colonial sphere of influence.
After Pierxon reported the situation to the governor of the colony, he wanted to ask for instructions at home.
The French colonial governor clearly told Wang Jiuling that he did not want Siam to be occupied by the Xikang army, and the British did not want Siam to be occupied. Therefore, he hoped that Wang Jiuling would stop and make any demands. As long as Siam was not destroyed, otherwise everyone would have to go to war.
See you
Wang Jiuling called France and told France that the Xikang army just wanted to seek justice. After the criminals were dealt with, they would leave Bangkok and would not occupy Bangkok. At the same time, Wang Jiuling also told the French governor that Xikang's strength was difficult to compete with that of a country, let alone impossible.
We are fighting against the two most powerful countries in the world, so I hope the French don't have to pay too much attention to it. Xikang gave Siam a chance. For half a month, the Siamese people don't know how to show appreciation and are shameless. So since the army has gone out, they have to get something back.
, otherwise it will be a joke. At the same time, I hope that French expatriates in Siam will stay at home and not wander around, otherwise accidents will inevitably happen.
After getting Wang Jiuling's guarantee, the French communicated with the domestic government again and felt that Wang Jiuling's words were credible. Wang Jiuling was not strong enough to fight against Britain and France. They instructed the French colonial authorities not to get involved in this matter.
The French have not yet recovered from the economic crisis, and the domestic political situation is unstable. A large part of the reason why they bet with Wang Jiuling in the first place is that the people are too fanatical. In addition, this gamble can be said to be a guaranteed profit.
It's just that the cycle is relatively long, so they agreed. However, although France has money, it is all in the hands of capitalists. Wang Jiuling took away three billion US dollars, and the French government will be poor. That is not a small amount. If it breaks out
There is no benefit to winning a large-scale war, so the French are determined not to do it.
Therefore, as long as Wang Jiuling does not threaten France's core interests and the French do not want to fight, and Wang Jiuling does not want to provoke Britain and France at this time, Japan is the most important enemy to kill. They want to destroy China.
Luang Phibun visited the ambassadors of Britain, France and Japan and learned that France and France were unwilling to help Siam. Japan was powerless and the situation in Britain was unknown. He thought that Siam seemed to be finished. No other country had sent troops. How could it be done with words alone?
Resist the Xikang Army's attack
As the decision-maker of this anti-Chinese campaign, he knew that the Xikang Army would not let him go, so he could only hide. However, if there were soldiers everywhere outside, if they knew that he, the Minister of Defense, had escaped, the morale of the army would immediately be shattered.
I will probably never return to Siamese politics again.
In the end, Japanese Ambassador Suzuki Iotong gave him advice and hid in the Japanese Embassy. I believe that the Xikang Army did not dare to do anything to the Japanese Embassy, and Luang Pibun's safety could also be guaranteed.
Suzuki Iito did this so that when Wang Jiuling annexed Siam, someone would come out to call on the Siamese people to resist and create trouble for Wang Jiuling.
As for Luang Phibun, the pro-Japanese deputy commander-in-chief of the army, the defense minister was the best candidate. Luang Phibun thought about it and accepted Suzuki's suggestion. However, he still needed to go out and stabilize the morale of the army. If he could resist, he would resist. If he couldn't, he would resist.
If they resisted, they fled to the Japanese embassy.
At 5 pm on November 20, 1934, the armored division of Sun Chuanling's Second Army arrived at Don Mueang Airport. Without stopping, under the cover of the air force, it launched an attack on Don Mueang Airport. It defeated the enemy in ten minutes and then began to organize defense.
and patching up airport runways.
Half an hour later, the first transport plane landed at Don Mueang Airport, carrying the gasoline needed by the armored division, followed by the second, and the third...
At this time, the cavalry division had also arrived, but they did not stay, leaving one battalion to assist a battalion of the armored division in defending Don Mueang Airport.
The other people added something and then followed the armored division to surround Bangkok. As the capital of Siam, Bangkok also has the National Bank of Siam. Wang Jiuling believed that Siam always has some gold and silver reserves, and he must have some.
It was placed in Siam, so he instructed Sun Chuanling to find the gold no matter what.
In order to prevent Siam from transporting the gold, the Air Force patrolled Siam around the clock when it was sure that no aircraft could threaten them. Whenever they saw groups of people or cars and carriages, they would bomb them or use machine guns to shoot them, and
Many leaflets were dropped over Bangkok, clearly telling Bangkok people that in order to ensure their safety, they must stay at home, and if they dared to come out, they would be eliminated. Soon after some people who did not believe in evil were killed, all the people in Bangkok were gone.
Dare to walk on the street
They hid in their homes fearfully, as if the end was coming. At the same time, they cursed those anti-Chinese people in their hearts. The Chinese have not done anything bad. They have nothing to do with anti-Chinese. Now they have to suffer the consequences for ordinary people like themselves.
I don’t know when the Xikang Army will come. If their planes keep flying in the sky and the Xikang Army doesn’t come, then if they don’t come for four or five days, won’t ordinary people like us starve to death!
And some people know that planes can't fly at night, and even if they fly at night, they can't see the ground. Many people have already prepared their things and are ready to leave.
At the same time, Siam's supporting navy also sailed away from the coast or the Chao Phraya River under the attack of the Xikang Army and Air Force. Many of them were far away and I don't know where they hid.
At this time, the armored division and the cavalry division arrived at the outskirts of Bangkok, and the original soldiers in Bangkok were hiding somewhere. Maybe they escaped under the bombing, or maybe they fell into the homes of citizens. Anyway, the planes had already seen them in the sky.
There are no armies from other countries other than the Xikang Army.
