In the original history, most of the Japanese power was dragged into China, and the Soviet Union also blocked Germany, preventing the Axis powers from uniting. The two main forces of the Axis Powers, Germany and Japan, have a very huge shortcoming: lack of resources! Especially oil. So they were ultimately defeated at the hands of the Allies. But this time, because of someone¡¯s random interference, the Axis powers are stronger than ever. In particular, Germany, led by Hitler, not only easily captured Ukraine, the breadbasket of Europe, but also seized a large amount of reserves from the Soviet Union. And most importantly, Germany not only had an oil base in Libya, but also seized the Caucasus oil-producing areas from the Soviet Union. . Therefore, at this time, the Third Reich, which was facing a difficult situation due to the failure of the Battle of Stalingrad and had to prepare to launch a so-called "total war", could not only mobilize troops from the Soviet Union to deal with the Allies in North Africa, but also use a large number of The weapons and baggage went to support Japan. Once Germany and Japan join forces or conduct further joint operations, the situation of the Allies will inevitably be extremely disadvantageous. You must know that from the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, Japan's logistics supply was quite tight, and it had to implement the so-called "war to support war" policy. But as the war progressed, this policy began to be unable to support the Japanese military's operations. The Japanese's arrogant fighting style that spread on all sides simply could not last long. As long as its opponents persist, it won't be long before the Japanese are the unlucky ones. But now, Germany has provided Japan with a large amount of funding It is said that the first batch of luggage is enough to equip ten Japanese divisions. After hearing the news, everyone was worried. The offensive momentum of the National Revolutionary Army, which was "recovering lost territory on a large scale", was actually frustrated. Many leading frontline officers even asked Chiang Kai-shek to stop attacking the Japanese army, retreat and organize defense. Chiang Kai-shek actually agreed with this and brought the issue to the Military Commission for discussion. certainly. Perhaps Chiang Kai-shek did nothing wrong. The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is clearly there. The reason why Japan is able to advance all the way now is that, in addition to its increased strength in the past two years, another important reason is the insufficient supply of supplies to the Japanese army. Ishihara Kanji, who is in charge of strategic planning, and others People were unwilling to let the Japanese army's strength be wasted, and strongly advocated shrinking its military strength. But now that the Japanese have received support from the Germans, their strength has recovered and even increased, who knows whether they will launch a counterattack? Although he was reluctant to part with the territory he had taken back, he was even more reluctant to part with the troops. To know. During the "turf grab" some time ago, the Central Army was on the front line and grabbed the best territory. Once the Japanese army counterattacks, they will definitely bear the brunt. And if the army is gone, how can we counterattack? How to regain the lost territory and drive away the invaders? Although the National Government also had support from Britain and the United States. But British and American ships had to first go south along the west coast of Africa to the Cape of Good Hope. Then it goes diagonally from the Cape of Good Hope through Malacca, and then from the South China Sea to Guangzhou This is much more difficult than the Germans transporting things from the Trans-Siberian Railway. After all, although the Chinese Air Force is powerful, it can only protect Malacca and the South China Sea. There are still many Japanese warships in the Indian Ocean blocking it. However, just when Lao Jiang and others were planning to risk the disapproval of the world. When the public's enthusiasm for "counterattack" was rising and they were preparing to retreat a certain distance, something big happened over there in Siberia: the first supplies of German aid to Japan were intercepted! And the one who carried out this "black hand" was actually the Eighth Route Army, which had not been showing off much in this period of time! Starting from Khalkha Mongolia, we pass through the mountains between Khalkha and Siberia. Bypassing the Japanese defense line, they suddenly broke out among the mountains of Sui Mountain When the Kwantung Army stationed in Chita and Ulan-Ude to guard against the Eighth Route Army hurried over, the Eighth Route Army was already carrying horse-drawn horses. The goods were hauled hundreds of miles away. The Kwantung Army hurriedly organized a pursuit, and the two armies pursued and fought all the way to Kyaktu, the border between Khalkha and Siberia. But here, the Kwantung Army was blocked by the Eighth Route Army and could no longer advance even half a step. This move of the Eighth Route Army was extremely brilliant. After the news came out, it also greatly aroused the goodwill and enthusiasm of the Chinese people. However, their approach also offended four people at the same time. Three of them are Japanese generals: Umezu Yoshijiro who is in charge of the Northeast, Ueda Kenkichi who is in the Far East, and Nishio Hiszo who is in Siberia! The fourth one is Lao Jiang. Although the Kwantung Army in the hands of the three Japanese generals was no longer as large as before, they still organized four divisions to attack Outer Mongolia immediately. Apart from these, they A large number of troops from the puppet Manchukuo were also gathered, with a total strength of 200,000. As for Chiang Kai-shek, he also helped these invaders intentionally or unintentionally. He ordered Fu Zuoyi, Hu Zongnan and others to cut off all contact between Khalkha and the outside world. He also rejected Qin Wei's suggestion of air support, and even Because he was worried that Qin Wei would make his own decisions, Qin Wei's air force command was temporarily suspended. For a time, eight roadsThe army seems to be trapped in a situation of "embarrassment on all sides". " But Chiang Kai-shek has obviously forgotten what kind of team the Eighth Route Army is, and how many times the predecessors of this army have been surrounded by heavy sieges This kind of situation is very familiar to him! Under the personal command of Mao Zedong and Zhu De, the Eighth Route Army blocked Nishio Shouzou in the north of Sayan Mountains; at the same time, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army fought and retreated, luring the Japanese and puppet troops personally commanded by Umezu Meijiro to the grassland Again Then, unexpectedly by Umezu Yoshijiro, an armored force composed of dozens of tanks and chariots broke through the Japanese defense line, and behind this force was an overwhelming cavalry! The invasion is like fire! Umezu Yoshijiro did not expect that the equipment of the Eighth Route Army was no worse than theirs, and its fighting was even more fierce than the Kwantung Army, which was always known for its elite and bravery. It could only retreat again and again. As a result, he was chased all the way by the Eighth Route Army. He tried many times to organize a defense but failed, and was ultimately defeated. This is a jaw-dropping battle. Originally, many people thought that even if the Eighth Route Army would not be wiped out by the Japanese army, it would at least be severely damaged. However, they did not expect that the Japanese army would be the unlucky one in the end. As for the Eighth Route Army, a seemingly weak "weak", after this battle, its leading troops fought through the Greater Khingan Mountains, and then cooperated with the Anti-Japanese Alliance that was originally active in the Northeast. For a time, the entire three northeastern provinces were stirred up. "Lao Jiang was scared. The Eighth Route Army has received a large number of weapons and supplies from the Germans to support Japan, including armored units. Now it has revealed its "ambition" for the three northeastern provinces But he still has no solution. Because the Eighth Route Army at this time was no longer something he could easily deal with. At least, Hu Zongnan and Fu Zuoyi, whom he placed south of Khalkha, would never be able to resist the sudden increase in strength of the Eighth Route Army. What's more, the power displayed by the Eighth Route Army also greatly surprised the British and American allies. If he hadn't been there to stop him, the Americans would have sent people to Khalkha to contact the Communist Party for cooperation. Therefore, it is impossible to take the initiative to attack, but it is also impossible to seek trouble in a roundabout way The most he can do is ask Hu Zongnan and Fu Zuoyi to cut off the connection between Khalkha and North China, but now they have basically opened the door to the three eastern provinces. The passage between It was too late for the Japanese to concentrate their forces there, so how could they disperse their forces to cut off the Eighth Route Army's various channels? The more he thought about it, the less he could do against the Eighth Route Army, and the more anxious and angry Chiang became And in the end, he finally vented his anger on Qin Wei. Because in Lao Jiang's view, it was precisely because Qin Wei messed around in the negotiations with the Japanese that gave the Japanese the opportunity to possess armored forces that the Eighth Route Army easily won this battle. Therefore, it was Qin Wei who caused the current situation. So, in a rage, he dismissed Qin Wei as commander-in-chief of the air force. Qin Wei didn't bother to pay attention to the bald man. After being removed from the air force rank, he returned to Kunming without even saying hello to Chiang Kai-shek. Then he didn't care about anything and just discussed with He Zhonghan all day long about emigrating to northern Myanmar, Laos, North Vietnam and other places. And soon, Chiang Kai-shek discovered that he had done something wrong After Qin Wei resigned, he was immediately favored by the Guangxi, Yunnan, and even Qianchuan warlords who had just fled to Tibet and settled in Tibet. Even Yan Laoxi'er, who was hiding in southern Shanxi, frequently sent people to contact him. And as the connection between these people and Qin Wei became closer, the Central Army's operation to regain the lost territory began to become difficult because most of Qin Wei's intelligence was sent to these miscellaneous hands. For a moment, Lao Jiang wanted to kill Qin Wei, but he did not dare. Because not long after he had this idea, there were rumors about this in the outside world It was okay for the public opinion to be fierce, and it was okay for those bastards to cause trouble, but the Air Force, which he now regarded as his ace, suddenly became chaotic. Zhou Zhirou, the commander-in-chief of aviation, could not suppress him. In addition, the navy was also extremely dissatisfied with this. Two navy chiefs, Chen Shaokuan and Chen Jiliang, even came to ask him in person, thus expressing the navy's support for Qin Wei. support. In desperation, Chiang Kai-shek could only give up that unrealistic idea. In order to repair the relationship with Qin Wei and not lose face, he awarded Dai Li, who had not been seen for a long time, the rank of admiral and appointed him as the Minister of the Navy. . Not long after that, Dai Li "commanded" the only fleet of the Chinese Navy to block the Japanese Indian Ocean Fleet that had just returned from the Indian battlefield in the South China Sea. It was the "Yamato" aircraft carrier with a full load displacement of 70,000 tons. Flagship of the fleet. After a naval and air battle that was said to last only two or three hours, the Chinese Navy drove the "Yamato" and half of the Indian Ocean Fleet back to the Hainan port at the cost of losing a cruiser and damaging a battleship. "The Great Demon King" Dai Li's reputation is once again famous both at home and abroad. However, just when Dai Li was enjoying great glory, someone hit him hard: the Eighth Route Army, which had been dormant for several months, marched south from Khalkha and laid out its plans.There is a tendency to cross Inner Mongolia and go south to North China. But just when Chiang Kai-shek was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Fu Zuoyi to set up a formation to meet the enemy, the Eighth Route Army suddenly swung its tail and captured the Chifeng where the Japanese army was stationed. Then, the troops advanced to the bottom of Jinzhou City! (To be continued)
