Age of Rebirth

Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, Lieutenant General, didn't understand the division commander's calm attitude, and he didn't care about the big event of the [-] Italian troops stationed in the Japanese archipelago. However, Zhao Yuhe couldn't be blamed for being nervous. For people of this era, the pressure brought to the Chinese by foreigners and the armies of foreign countries is the precipitation of nearly a hundred years, instinctive vigilance and heaviness, and Italy is one of them.

"What are you looking at me for?" Seeing Zhao Yuhe's eagerness for knowledge, Tang Qiuli interrupted his thoughts and said, "What should you do, don't hang around in front of me!"

Seeing what the teacher said, Zhao Yuhe had no choice but to swallow the words, and left full of doubts.

Five days later, General Faisald, who was full of confidence and had a savior mentality, led more than [-] Italian soldiers who were also very confident, and set foot on the land of Japan. He looked proud at the welcoming scene of the crowds on the pier With a smile, he ordered to the chief of staff: "Order all the soldiers to show the most powerful side of the Italian Royal Army. Remember, we Italians are gentlemen!"

For the arrival of the Italians, the Japanese showed the highest standards to receive them. Emperor Hirohito personally went to the port of Yokohama to greet them, and the accompanying guests, including all the senior officials of the base camp, Minai Koichi, as an old acquaintance of Admiral Feisald, before and after Busy, Zhang Luo introduced each other to each other.

Emperor Hirohito held a grand banquet in the palace for officers above the rank of major general of the Italian reinforcements. During the banquet, Emperor Hirohito used the most beautiful language to enthusiastically praise the urgent and righteous allies—the Italian brothers. Not far from Mussolini.Great and selfless Italian boys, a beautiful and powerful country on the Mediterranean.

It made Hirohito himself seem to be talking to Mussolini, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy.It's like a good friend for many years, in fact.The two of the world's three giants of fascism, so far, only know each other's name, and have never even met each other.

The enthusiasm of the Japanese and the delicious oriental cuisine fascinated Feisald and his senior generals, and the praise of the Japanese supreme ruler even fascinated the Italians.Of course, there are also petite and charming Japanese girls at the banquet, which makes these Italians who already have excess male hormone secretion feel that coming to Japan is almost like heaven.

As Mussolini's plenipotentiary representative, Admiral Feisald's speech was simple and full of confidence. He did not mention a word about the agreement reached between Italy and Japan.He also didn't ask the Japanese to sign any agreement on the spot, because it was unnecessary, and he knew very well that the Japanese would never dare to deny it.Otherwise, it will not be able to bear the anger of Italy.

At the end of his speech, Admiral Feisald said in a personable manner: "Our Italian army. This time we came to Japan to fight. We are here to solve the problems of our allies. Therefore, I implore His Majesty the Emperor and all of you, for our support. Simplification is welcome, and it will not be too late to celebrate when the Chinese are defeated!"

Admiral Feisald's words naturally won a burst of thunderous applause. The welcome banquet did not take long. This is still the proposal of the admiral. During the war, everything should be kept simple and there is no more time. Wasted on the wine table.

When leaving the palace, there were two more Japanese girls in the car of His Excellency General Feisald, and other high-ranking officers also returned with beauty. This was carefully prepared by the Japanese for their allies. The gift was also the real reason why he was eager to end the banquet. Your Excellency, the suave general, thanked the Japanese allies for their care and consideration.

The Italian walked away with the Japanese beauty in his arms, leaving behind a messy banquet scene. The smile on Emperor Hirohito’s face disappeared completely. The Italian general presided over the welcome banquet in person, with a flattering tone, no need to spend money on good words, and even sent beauties, just to win Italy's favor.

The person I greeted personally should be Hitler or Mussolini at the head of state level. As for this son-in-law Feisald, he is just a small army general, and it is enough for Mineiguang to be in charge of the reception. Oh, when did the Great Japanese Empire fall to such an extent, Emperor Hirohito felt humiliated, sat there for a while, and asked his attendant to call Minai Koichi.

"Minai Ai, tell me the truth, are the Italians really up to the task? Are they really the opponents of the soldiers under the command of the Chinese devil?" Emperor Hirohito had a gloomy face, staring at Koichi Minai with tired eyes like knives. , asked bluntly.

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor, who was still full of spring breeze just now, became cloudy in the blink of an eye, and called himself over, the refined Minai Koichi immediately understood what was going on, but Hirohito's question made him even more embarrassed.

After muttering for a while, Mineiguang thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, regardless of whether the Italian army is as brave and good at fighting as they said, after all, the Imperial Army has never fought with them, but one thing is the victory of the Empire." , and successfully dragged the Italians into this war between us and the Chinese, after that, even if the Italians want to stop, it may not be easy!"

In fact, Minai Kouichi's answer was simply to avoid the truth, and it did not solve the doubts in Emperor Hirohito's heart, but it scratched his itch, and successfully tied the Italians to the chariot of the Great Japanese Empire. Victory, as to whether the Italian soldiers can fight, is not important anymore.

That insatiable Mussolini would not see more than [-] Italian soldiers being wiped out by the troops of the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli in Japan, and he would naturally continue to receive blood transfusions. It is impossible to stop and throw away. Thinking of this, Hirohito A satisfied smile appeared on the emperor's sallow face, and he said, "Miner Aiqing has worked hard. If you can defeat the Chinese invasion this time, you will be the first to do it!"

As soon as Mi Neiguang left happily, Hirohito called Prince Zain again. He was still very relieved about this scheming younger brother. There were 10,000+ Italian soldiers out of thin air. What is Zain's plan? I still have to ask him. Jen is in charge of homeland defense.

When Zai Ren came, Yu Ren didn't talk nonsense, and asked straightforwardly: "Zai Ren, more than [-] Italian soldiers, how are you going to deploy them?"

Zai Ren smiled slyly, and replied: "Brother Emperor, since the Italians are full of confidence, I am going to put them on the east and west ends of Honshu Island, the most forward positions, to prevent the Chinese Independent Division from landing. The role of those who can do more work! I think the Italians will be very happy to show their strength!"

Hirohito laughed at the time. This cunning brother wanted to put the Italians in the key position where the China Independent Division crossed the sea and landed. If you understand the matter in your heart, you can do it, and of course you won't say it out loud.

"Okay, you go to deploy, but don't be too obvious, what should be provided, try to provide as much as possible, after all, the Italians are here to reinforce us!" Zai Ren looked at his brother with satisfaction, and said in a lecture tone.

"Brother, please rest assured, there will never be any mistakes!" Zai Ren was even more confident, and used his own scheming to plot against the cowardly Faisald. Hats, take it off in minutes!

Emperor Hirohito didn't know, neither did Zairen, the Japanese had committed the problem of arrogance again, they were making a fatal mistake, treating the Italian army as a traditionally strong European army, and they could become the two sides of the European continent. One of the strongest, so far it has been enjoying a good life. The Italian army, which is tied with Germany, is no matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?

Emperor Hirohito and Prince Zaihito have never dealt with the Italians, so they don’t know what these bastards are like. Minai Koichi, who rushed to the North American battlefield to negotiate, did not have a relationship with Ryumi, the commander of the German South American Army Group. He couldn't and didn't dare to contact Marshal Seoul, he was going to poach the wall, and it was too late to avoid the Germans!

If Koichi Minai gets in touch with Rommel and listens to the German god of war's evaluation of the Italian army, Koichi Minai will not invite these Italian sons and daughters as saviors even if he risks being beheaded by Emperor Hirohito Japan.

As for Rommel, how could he not know that Koichi Minai, the number one leader of the Japanese military, sneaked into the North American battlefield and plunged into the arms of the Italians. He disdains and does not want to contact the Japanese. He didn't even want to know what's wrong with the time, the Japanese sent away the Italian army who was so tired of him, and it was too late for him to thank him!

Many factors were intertwined, and by accident, Prince Zairen, who was in charge of Japan's homeland defense, handed over the two most important defense directions to the Italians, one of which was Tang Qiuli's choice. It is one of the key landing areas of Japan, and Busan on the Korean Peninsula, across the Korean Strait from the mountain pass at the southernmost tip of Honshu Island to Hiroshima.

The Italian army rested for three days in the Tokyo area. After tasting the delicious food of the East, with nostalgia for the Japanese girl in Ginza, Tokyo, the troops divided into two groups and went to the defense location designated by Prince Zain to serve the Japanese. Cannon fodder.

Three days later, a huge fleet appeared in the waters near the Ogasawara Islands. Behind the fleet was an even larger troop transport fleet, the Southern Fleet of the Independent Division, the Korean Marine Corps and the Sulu Mobile Corps. The South Assistance Force formed by the Ministry of Defense arrived here within the planned time.

After leaving Australia, the sea voyage for more than a week was without any surprises and dangers. On the way, I did not encounter a Japanese navy warship, a Japanese reconnaissance plane or a patrol plane. Therefore, the whole of Japan would not know that a The independent division fleet and a fleet full of hundreds of thousands of soldiers have approached the southern part of Japan's Honshu Island.
