Anti-Japanese War: The whole world is a base vehicle

Chapter 79 I suspect he is the illegitimate child! (Make up for yesterday's!)

When Ribbentrop received the telegram from Eugen Otto, he was completely paralyzed.

So many heavy artillery?
Who on earth did this?

Why is there no news at all?

He still remembered that Admiral Keitel had assured him that not a single artillery piece would be exposed.

result?

what is this?
170mm cannon.

240mm heavy artillery.

There is also the Panzer III.

Even the Type 4 tank that was under testing appeared in the Far East, which was really incredible.

This is an absolutely confidential weapon.

"Are these all true? There are even Soviet tanks? Who are they? Freemasons?" Admiral Keitel was full of disbelief after reading the telegram.

"It should be true. Colonel William swore on the honor of the Prussian Officer Corps that he saw all this with his own eyes." Ribbentrop said quickly.

Hearing this, Admiral Keitel seemed silent, and everyone knew what this meant.

If these tanks were not sold by them, it means that they leaked the drawings and the other party produced them themselves.

No matter which one it is, it proves one thing, that is, the other party possesses a terrifying force.

"Admiral Keitel, do you think it is credible?" Ribbentrop asked again when he saw that Admiral Keitel remained silent.

"It should be true. Since William swore on the honor of the Prussian Officer Corps, it must be true." Admiral Keitel nodded.

"I'm now curious about what they're trying to do."

The fact that such a new tank was brought out at this time made him very suspicious about the other party's goal.

Provoke a new world war?

At this time, Germany had not thought so much. What they wanted was revenge and to wash away the shame imposed on them by the last war.

However, there was one sentence in the telegram that was very true, that is, relying on this tank, it is possible to sweep across the entire European continent.

"Perhaps they want to provoke a new war and make war profits, Admiral Keitel, I believe you should know something about this mysterious organization." Ribbentrop said meaningfully.

"Well, I know a little about it. If they want to make money from the war, it is possible. According to Colonel William's statement, they sold almost a division's equipment in our name, and the price was far higher than what we sold to the Far East before the war." Admiral Keitel sneered, pointing at the content of the telegram.

"This is normal. After all, all external communication channels in the Far East have been cut off by the Japanese army. Prices have soared, and the prices of weapons have skyrocketed. This is normal." Ribbentrop thought it was normal.

"Well, that's true, but it will affect our future strategy. Now our potential ally, the Japanese army, is very dissatisfied. How do we solve this problem?" Admiral Keitel asked.

"This is indeed a problem. We still need the Japanese army to distract the attention of Britain and France. If we offend them too much, it may be detrimental to the alliance." Ribbentrop also felt the situation was difficult.

If this problem is not resolved properly, I'm afraid the alliance will have to be postponed.

But now the war is urgent, and Admiral Keitel knows that taking action against Poland is imminent and can no longer be delayed.

"Never mind all that for now. Let's find a way to get this Soviet tank. It can easily destroy our Type 4 tank. If we can get this tank, our combat effectiveness will be greatly enhanced." Admiral Keitel said with a deep breath.

"But the conditions they put forward are a bit high. In addition to various industrial equipment, they also want us to help them train officers. What will the Japanese army think if they know this? I'm afraid this alliance can't be discussed further." Ribbentrop shook his head and said.

"Don't worry about these for now. Let William calm the other party down. I will give you a reply in one day." After saying that, Admiral Keitel left with the telegram.

Not long after, a special military meeting was held.

"We can give you industrial equipment, including these steel mills, but I don't agree with the training of military officers." Someone directly raised his objection.

"Can this tank really improve our combat effectiveness? And why doesn't our intelligence department have any news about it?"

"Does the Soviet Union have the industrial strength to build such advanced tanks?"

"I know William. He wouldn't lie." said an artillery general.

"But this requirement is too high. More than a thousand officers from various branches of the military. This is enough to open a military academy."

"This is really asking for too much and it is hard to accept."

"Can't we build more advanced tanks?"

After all, the feeling of being controlled by others is very unpleasant.

It’s just that it’s a seller’s market now, and they can only bear the consequences.

Or maybe the Japanese could defeat the enemy, in which case they might be able to get these things.

Do not!
Perhaps the price paid at that time will be even greater.

"Wait, it says here that they can provide information on 406mm naval guns and aircraft carrier drawings." Admiral Raeder, who had been silent, couldn't help but speak.

"Our naval gun technology has been at a standstill for nearly 380 years. We have been using 406mm naval guns all along, and have not done much research on 406mm naval guns. The gap between us and the Royal Navy's battleships is too big. I think we must acquire mm naval guns."

The 406mm naval gun is not only more powerful than the 380mm naval gun, but also has a range that far exceeds that of the 406mm naval gun. If they can really get it, then their battleships can also be equipped with mm naval guns.

So, he must fight.

When the others heard this, their faces turned unhappy.

Your navy has swallowed up so many resources, and you still want 406mm naval guns?

But everyone knows that the navy has been in a 406-year gap, and now that they finally have mm naval guns, they naturally want to fight for it.

Doesn’t the German army want to produce large-caliber naval guns?

Yes I do!

But Krupp couldn't do it.

Due to technical limitations, being able to produce 380mm naval guns is already their limit.

As for the 406mm naval gun, there is really no clue at all.

Because the larger the caliber, the more difficult it is to produce, Tirpitz and Bismarck were equipped with 380mm naval guns.

If it can really be replaced with a 406mm naval gun, the combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved.

Even when facing the battleships of the Royal Fleet, they have the courage to fight.

So Raeder felt that he must obtain the information on this naval gun.

He doesn't care about aircraft carriers or anything like that.

But he had to take down the battleship's guns.

Even if it costs a huge price, it is worth it.

"If that's the case, the cost will probably be even greater. The other party has completely controlled us." Someone said unwillingly.

One thousand officers is enough to expand a division.

There are also those industrial equipment. Although they are only steel mills with a capacity of millions of tons, they are still not small.

It may even affect the subsequent alliance.

They have to take these factors into consideration.

"Humph, what do you know? 406mm naval gun, even if we are willing to pay the price, will the British give it to us? These prices are worth some money in your eyes, but for the British, they are nothing. Even if you move a mountain of gold to them, they will not agree to sell it. This is a national treasure." Marshal Raeder said with great sorrow.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment after hearing this, because there was nothing wrong with it.

If the 406mm naval gun can be taken down at this price, I'm afraid the navy will be really happy.

Looking at the still silent expressions of the crowd, Redel knew that he had to pay a price.

"If you can get the 406mm naval gun, our navy can reduce the share of diesel, so that your army can be equipped with more tanks. If you don't agree, our navy will not give up a single drop of diesel." Raeder said lightly.

After these words were spoken, the expressions of many army generals froze, and then they exchanged glances.

Diesel is a good thing!
Don't they know the benefits of diesel engines?
Do not!
They knew, but because diesel was limited, it could only be supplied to the navy first, so the army had to use gasoline engines.

But the shortcomings of gasoline engines caused the army a lot of headaches.

If the navy can really give up part of its share, the army can indeed be equipped with some diesel engine tanks.

"Okay." After General Keitel looked at a group of army generals, he immediately agreed to this plan.

As for the Air Force?

I've been watching the show all the time because it has nothing to do with them.

But I am a little interested in aircraft carriers. The reason is that the carrier-based aircraft on aircraft carriers are under the control of the Air Force.

Why was there no follow-up to the Zeppelin aircraft carrier? Wasn’t it because the Air Force was unwilling to allocate fighter jets?

In other words, they don't agree with the navy owning fighter jets.

They believe that the fighter jets should belong to the Air Force.

But the Navy absolutely disagreed to hand over the aircraft carrier it built to the Air Force.

So the two sides have been arguing.

.........

"The 76th and 49th Divisions are facing off against the Japanese th Division."

"The 99th Army was blocked at Gaofeng Pass."

714th Garrison Regiment, Lu Yuhua listened to the report of the communications staff, frowning slightly. "The 36th Army has already entered Nanning City and is cooperating with our troops to expand the results of the battle."

"So far, the Japanese casualties have exceeded 2,000. It is estimated that Nanning City will be captured in two days."

"Too slow, another two days?" Lu Yuhua was slightly dissatisfied, but he also knew that this was the greatest help Zhang Fakui could give at the moment.

The other miscellaneous troops might not be able to arrive for a while.

Especially the Japanese 18th Division in Pumiao Town, where there is also the 1st Guards Brigade, with a considerable number of people.

Even if the two divisions had tens of thousands of people, they probably wouldn't be able to break through the defense line so quickly.

"Lu, move the heavy artillery positions forward and target the Japanese 18th Division in Pumiao Town. Now the Japanese haven't received the news that Nanning City has been breached. When they receive the news and are bombed again, they will definitely choose to retreat." William added at the right time.

"Why not attack Gaofengai?" Lu Yuhua asked puzzledly.

"The only hope for the Japanese army now is the 18th Division. If we inflict heavy damage on the enemy, the Japanese army will completely lose its resolve to resist."

"Destroying their fresh forces will have a huge impact on the entire battle situation," William reminded.

"What we need to do now is to take over Nanning City as soon as possible. This is the fastest way. We must not waste too much energy in street fighting."

"According to statistics, your troops have lost more than 500 men in just one day. This is already a huge loss of life, but what is admirable is that your men show no signs of collapse and continue to attack."

“I’m curious how they did it.”

Hearing this, Lu Yuhua glanced at him calmly and then said.

"I have always used the German-equipped division to challenge them. Even if all of them are killed, they must fight to the last moment."

William was surprised to hear this.

Only Lu Yuhua knew about it. He felt very distressed, but there was nothing he could do. Street fighting was a game of attrition. Whoever couldn't hold on first would lose.

Lu Yuhua could still accept a casualty ratio of one to four.

"Heavy artillery alone is not enough. It's time to send out fighter planes and let the Japanese see the power of the Stuka bomber." Lu Yuhua felt that the twelve fighter planes he had just accumulated could be sent out.

"Then let them attack the 18th Division." Colonel William suppressed his doubts and pointed to the map.

"Order: Send out fighter planes to target the positions of the Japanese 76th Division in Pumiao Town to assist the th Division. Also send them a telegram to tell them that fighter plane support will be available soon." Lu Yuhua said.

"Yes."

"Brother Lingyun, the 18th Division is worthy of being a Type A division. Its firepower is too strong. One of my battalions is almost wiped out." At the frontline position outside Pumiao Town, Li Jingyi said to Wang Lingyun with some heartache.

Wang Lingyun, who was standing by, pretended not to hear anything and he felt very uncomfortable too.

The 76th Division also suffered heavy losses and there were not many people left.

I originally thought that I would get some replenishment and be able to take a break.

Who knew that they would receive another order from the theater headquarters to rush to the rescue of Nanning City.

As soon as they arrived at Pumiao Town, they were ambushed by the 18th Division.

An infantry battalion was almost wiped out in less than twenty minutes.

At this rate, I'm afraid that by the end of the day, the more than 10,000 people gathered by their two divisions would be gone.

"Have we really captured Nanning city? Otherwise, why are the Japanese still standing here motionless?" Seeing that Wang Lingyun didn't say anything, Li Jingyi asked unwillingly.

"Brother Jingyi, stop guessing. Since this is an order from the theater commander, it must be true. We just need to follow the order." Wang Lingyun shook his head. He was now concentrating on fighting the war.

He is not a direct descendant of Li Jingyi who has a backer.

As long as you don't make big mistakes, it's fine.

The other party can disobey orders, but I can't.

But no one dares to disobey orders now. The cancellation of two numbers can be regarded as a warning to others.

Therefore, they really dared not disobey Zhang Fakui's orders.

"But, are we just going to watch our troops being consumed?" Li Jingyi felt sad as he looked at the battlefield ahead that was filled with smoke and artillery fire.

I looked up at the gray sky again, feeling very depressed.

"Continue the attack. You and I are both soldiers, and it is our duty to obey orders. Otherwise, you and I will be punished by military law." Wang Lingyun advised kindly.

"Yes, I know." Li Jingyi naturally did not dare to disobey the order.

Even though he is a direct descendant, he is a marginal figure. Unless something unexpected happens, he will have no future.

"Commander, the 714th Garrison Regiment just sent a telegram saying that fighter planes will support us soon and help us open a channel for attack." At this time, the communications staff came trotting over with a telegram to report.

"What, fighter plane?" Wang Lingyun and Li Jingyi looked at each other and were also confused.

Are there any fighter planes?

Is Shancheng so generous?

etc?
Why did the 714th Garrison Regiment send them a telegram?
What a joke.

When will a garrison regiment still have fighter planes?

"Brother Jingyi, could this Lu Yuhua be an illegitimate child?" Wang Lingyun couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know. I've never heard of it." Li Jingyi looked confused.

He had never heard of any illegitimate children.

"If this isn't an illegitimate child, then this power is too great, right? And there are fighter jets?" Wang Lingyun couldn't help but complain.

"Commander, will there really be air support?" Someone finally couldn't help but ask.

If there was air support, this battle would be much easier to fight.

Especially the 49th Division, they have experienced the pain of being bombed by fighter planes.

After all, compared with infantry support, air support is not as effective.

Look, the air support is here, so how far can ground support be?
"How would I know? Maybe there really is a plane." Wang Lingyun didn't know either.

To be honest, after fighting for so long, we have only encountered air support a few times.

But they were soon repelled by Japanese fighter planes.

Therefore, there is no such thing as an all-round air advantage.

This is also what surprised Wang Lingyun.

Normally, fighter jets are only deployed on a campaign-level scale.

The key issue is that there are no fighter planes in the Fourth War Zone.

Could it be a special approval from Shancheng?

"Who can tell me why the Chinese army suddenly launched an attack?" asked Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake at the headquarters of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army.

He felt that being the division commander was a trap.

It was almost nothing like the outstanding military achievements he had expected.

Just after getting familiar with the 18th Division, we were attacked.

This is unprecedented. In the past, they always took the initiative to attack the Chinese army.

Now it was the Chinese army's turn to launch a counterattack.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake felt that there must be something he didn't know.

"Haven't you contacted the military yet?" Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake asked again.

"No, we think something must have happened in the military." said the communications staff officer.

"Where is the signalman? Why hasn't he been sent out yet?" Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake roared angrily.

"Hai, it has been sent out, but no reply has been received yet." The communications staff explained reluctantly.

Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake took a deep breath. He had a strong premonition that something must have happened in Nanning City.

But he didn't understand what had happened.

Did the Chinese army capture the city of Nanning?
It shouldn’t be!

There are nearly tens of thousands of defenders in Nanning City.

And what method did the Chinese army use to make them lose contact in the first place?

Did it hit the military directly?
Just then, bursts of roars were heard in the distance.

Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake's first reaction was to look for opportunities, and he immediately led his subordinates out of the division headquarters.

"Mr. Commander, look, what is that?" Someone pointed at a black shadow in the distance and said tremblingly.

Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Momotake looked up subconsciously and saw several black shadows flying from the north, obviously coming towards them.

"What?" Haruyoshi Momotake's brain froze instantly.

what is this?
Chinese Air Force?

How can it be!
