Chapter 453: 453

However, the Japanese army's fighting style is shocking, and it is hard to imagine how difficult the task this army could perform after learning advanced tactics. They generally conducted very precise shooting training, attaching importance to bayonet fighting and charge tactics. To be honest, according to the standards in the early stages of World War I, this army was very combat-effective.

Of course, in the face of the offensive or defensive system composed of tanks, artillery and machine guns, the Japanese army's combat methods are obviously outdated. The consequence of their repeated use of rigid and backward tactics to fight bravely is that there is nothing worth boasting about except for the high number of casualties.

The performance of the Japanese air force was also very disappointing, they fought with Soviet fighter forces for air supremacy, and at the beginning of the war, they listened to the valuable advice of our Luftwaffe observers and attacked the Soviet front-line airports, but after this successful operation, their performance could be described as stupid.

They did not take advantage of their air supremacy and did not take off a large number of aircraft to support ground combat. Air raids were only limited to taking off bombers to carry out hasty bombings in a certain area. They did not repeatedly take off a small number of aircraft to continuously provide ground suppression firepower for frontline troops, just like our Luftwaffe.

The direct consequence of doing this is that in addition to the loss of part of the artillery in several bombings, the Soviet artillery that lost air superiority can fight without pressure in most cases, which directly led to the failure of Japanese artillery operations.

It is worth mentioning that Japan has won a series of victories in mainland China. The Chinese team seemed to be retreating in an organized manner on the front battlefield, abandoning some areas that are not developed but are huge. This also further deteriorated the situation in the Far East. More people in Japan turned to support continued expansion. Originally, because of the setback in China's offense, some people within Japan began to think that the offense should be stopped and seek peace with China, but now it seems that this voice is very weak, and Japan's possibility of continuing to expand the war is very high.

Now we all know that it seems unlikely that Japan will go north, so the Japanese Navy's southward combat policy is worth our attention. This combat plan includes the entire Southeast Asia region, and will obviously conflict with the interests of the United States, Britain and even our Germany. Please prepare early in the distant Berlin.

In the far east, I miss my great motherland all the time. I hope God bless you, my head of state, bless you for good health, and wish you all the best and the early victory of the Empire's battle against Britain.

——First-level military officer of the Third Reich Consulate in Japan, Hadlit von Bollet

After reading the telegram, Akado put the documents on his desk, and looked at Blaucici and Augustus.

"The Japanese really used bayonets to cut Soviet tanks in Nomenkan?" Blauchic obviously didn't believe in the final result of this battle: "Japan's combat effectiveness during the Russo-Japanese War should not be underestimated... Why is it so unbearable now?"

"If you know that Japan is building its fifth aircraft carrier, you know that they are not as weak as you think." Akado looked at the stack of combat capability analysis of the Japanese Navy in the upper right corner of the table, rubbed his nose and said, "Fighting inland is not Japan's strength."

"Will Japan go south next?" Augustus asked with a frown.

"It's already started to move south." Akado smiled wryly and pointed to the intelligence on the table and said: "The two Japanese troops have entered Myanmar and have fought fiercely with the British troops under General Mountbatten. The accurate news just obtained this morning was that the British team in Hong Kong was forced to surrender."

"So?" Augustus raised his eyebrows.

"That's right. It's only a matter of time before Japan and the United States go to war. Although the two countries are still shouting peace between the United States and Japan, as long as they are not idiots, the war will completely break out within one year." Akado nodded and said, "The honeymoon period between us and Japan is over. After the battle of Nomonkan, Japan will not have any impact on our next strategy. Any requirements for dealing with Japan in the future should be dragged as the core response."

"My head of state, can you ask a question with sensation?" Blauxichi thought for a while and said, "You seem to have no good feelings for Japan in the choice of allies. You must know that Japan's current steel production is 100 times that of China. If you choose a stronger ally, we should stand on the side of Japan."

Akado was stunned, and then laughed: "China has no chance of winning against Japan alone. After all, China's current industrial foundation is too backward. But what if there is an United States?"

Augustus also stood up and patted the shoulders of Blauxiche, who was stunned and didn't know how to answer the conversation: "This is why you are just a marshal, and the head of state is always the head of state... In the head of state, Japan has always been a bargaining chip with the United States, not an allies. As for China... that is the fatal blow to stab the United States in secret."

"Then how do you reply to this telegram?" Boluoxiche knew that he could not see through the twists and turns of these politicians, so he stopped exploring it and asked.

"This lieutenant colonel has completed his mission well and has a chance to be promoted." Akado looked at the telegram again and said with a smile: "Now the situation in the Far East has attracted the attention of the Soviets, and it can at least delay the war for a few months. With these few months, we can patiently wait for the outcome of the British local war."

Winston Churchill, this familiar name. Akado looked at the name written in floral characters on the paper and felt a little emotional: Goebbels, Goering, Hitler, I guess this Churchill will be added now - another familiar person is about to leave the stage of history, who will be next?

I remembered the place where the cannons were heard in the distance, the Prime Minister's office deep underground, and thought about Churchill Acardo, who was sitting in a dark corner, raised his lips and smiled. The scene he imagined in his mind was really familiar: in another time and space, Hitler looked like this in the last moment, right? It was also a dim basement, poison and pistol, and was also waiting for his final ending in despair.
