Chapter 1800 Expand the scale

What? Ishihara Kaner was transferred to Kanto Army?" Zhong Yi's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he shouted in dismay, "When did this happen?"

Ishihara Kanr left Myanmar in disgrace and was transferred to the Kanto Army to serve. This is indeed good news for Zhong Yi and even the Chinese Expeditionary Force, but it is not good news for China.

Oh, no, this is not only not good news, but also great bad news.

Wang Geng was stunned by Zhong Yi's strong reaction. What's the situation?

Wang Geng said in surprise: "Chief, this is the information just provided by the Intelligence Department, but it is not a secret, and it has spread in Japan."

Stilwell also asked, "Zhong, is there any problem?"

"Of course there is a problem." Zhong Yi said with a dark face, "and it's a big problem."

Wang Geng and Stilwell were confused by Zhong Yi. What could be wrong with this?

Even if there is a problem, it is a good thing for the Myanmar War Theater and the Chinese Expeditionary Force, isn’t it?

Seeing that Stilwell and Wang Geng were still confused, Zhong Yi lamented and said, "Brother Slowing and General Stilwell, we have been dealing with Ishihara Kaner in Myanmar for a while. I believe you have also understood the character of this old devil, right?"

Stilwell and Wang Geng nodded at the same time.

Zhong Yi said again: "So what kind of person do you think this old Japanese man is?"

Stilwell said: "Ishihara Kan'er is actually very capable, at least he is much stronger than other senior Japanese generals."

Wang Geng also said: "And he has a very strategic vision."

"If it's bad, it's bad." Zhong Yi said, "Ishihara Kan'er, this old devil, is different from other old devils. He is a real vision, so when he arrives at the Kanto Army, he will definitely make a difference."

"When I was in the Kwantung Army, I must have done something?" Wang Geng said in surprise, "What does it mean?"

Stilwell also said in disbelief: "Can he dare to let the Kwantung Army attack the Soviet Union?"

"General Stilwell, do you think Ishihara Kaner is a person who is afraid of trouble?" Zhong Yi said.

"This..." Stilwell was speechless, and Ishihara Kaner was certainly not a person who was afraid of trouble.

Thinking of this, Stilwell's face finally changed. If Ishihara Kanir really ordered the Kanto Army to attack the Soviet Union, then the entire world situation would have a series of chain reactions.

And it is a bad chain reaction, a very bad reaction!

Zhong Yi said: "Think about it, if the Kanto Army really launches an attack, the Soviet Union will immediately fall into a desperate situation of fighting on both sides. At that time, the Soviet Union will not only not be able to obtain the supplementary personnel and materials from the Far East, but also have to draw personnel and materials from the already extremely tense European battlefield to reinforce the Far East. What will the final result?"

Wang Geng and Stilwell were shivering, and the scene depicted by Zhong Yi was too terrible.

After a pause, Zhong Yi continued: "If this is the case, the Soviet Union will definitely not last for two years."

Wang Geng said horrifiedly: "Two years later, if the Soviet Union is destroyed, the German army can free up their hands and go all out to deal with the Allies on the Western Front and the African battlefield. The Japanese government can also transfer nearly one million Kwantung troops from the Northeast into the pass. It is really hard to say whether the National Government can continue to persist in the war of resistance."

Zhong Yi said: "This is actually not the worst."

"Oh? Isn't this the worst?" Stilwell said dumbfounded, "What's the worst?"

"The worst thing is that the Japanese army can even free up their hands to directly attack the west coast of the United States!" Zhong Yi said, "The war will burn North America and affect the United States."

"Even if the Japanese army is not able to land, and if they are just dispatching air force to bomb, the impact is also fatal enough."

"At that time, the United States' industrial output will be hit hard. At that time, it will be hard to say whether the US government can still afford the supply of military supplies on the world's anti-*** battlefield."

Stilwell felt that the situation was more serious than imagined, so he asked Zhong Yi: "What should I do?"

"There is only one way," Zhong Yi said. "Build the Myanmar battlefield into a meat grinder, and consume the manpower, material and financial resources of Japan as much as possible on the Myanmar battlefield, so that it is not only unable to directly threaten the United States, but also forcing and giving up support for Ishihara Kanr's military adventures and reducing the scale of its attack on the Soviet Far East."

After pausing, Zhong Yi said again: "The Soviet Union has a complete industrial system in the Far East. If the Japanese army cannot invest enough troops and weapons, there is no hope of defeating the Soviet Red Army. Even if the Soviet army's focus is in Europe, those who stay in the Far East will be replaced and resting, and their combat effectiveness is no weaker than that of the Japanese army."

All Zhong Yi said is true. In another time and space, even when the Battle of Moscow was at its most critical moment, the Soviet Union always retained 1.5 million troops in the Far East, which has twice the strength advantage compared to the Kanto Army of Japan.

However, the Japanese army had the first-mover advantage, and the Soviet Red Army had too long defense lines in the Far East and was easily attacked, so the Japanese army had obvious advantages at the tactical level.

Overall, if the Kwantung Army wants to severely damage the heavy army group of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East, it must at least be equivalent to the force. If it wants to completely wipe out the Soviet army in the Far East, it will require at least twice the force, that is, 3 million.

Considering the Soviet Union's situation at this time, the Soviet army that severely damaged the Far East was equivalent to complete annihilation.

Therefore, as long as the Kwantung Army increases its troops to more than 1.5 million, the Soviet Union will be in danger.

When Ishihara Kanir was in office as commander-in-chief of the Kanto Army, he would definitely take military adventures, using one or two victories to stimulate the Japanese base camp and induce the Japanese base camp to expand its scale.

Therefore, the Chinese Expeditionary Force must forcefully switch to counterattack on the Myanmar battlefield and firmly attract the attention of the Japanese base camp on the Myanmar battlefield, so that the security of the Soviet Union and the security of the Allies can be ensured.

This principle is actually not complicated, Stilwell thought about it and then understood it.

At that moment, Stilvie said seriously: "I understand, Zhong, I will call Washington now and ask the Allied Command to transport the weapons and equipment originally planned to be assisted to the Myanmar War Zone, and still transport them to Myanmar as planned. Oh, no, it is not enough to follow the original plan. The scale of aid must be expanded, and yes, the scale of aid must be expanded."

After pausing, Stilwell said again: "By the way, the industrial zones in Myanmar must also be expanded to double the scale on the original basis. After the completion, the industrial zones in Myanmar must ensure that at least 3 million troops need to fight! We must strive to ensure that the Asian battlefield can not be supplied by the United States. If possible, the industrial zones in Myanmar must even feed back to Africa and Europe. That's it."
