Biquge EbookFREE.me, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!
Let ’s turn the clock back to July 15, 1938. On a quiet and sloppy morning, several children from civilian homes on the northwest coast of Australia were playing on the beach. They were used to chasing the waves and giggling with laughter. The entire beach, and those trenches and forts that have been abandoned have become a good place for them to play.
Suddenly, a disturbing voice came from far away from the sea level, where a thin, unsettling black line appeared. Several children looked into the distance like a cloud cover, put down the small sand shovel and wooden blocks in their hands, and ran quickly towards their home.
At 8:30 in the morning, this thin line has become a fleet that cannot be seen at a glance on the sea. The huge battleship bow in the fleet is decorated with golden chrysanthemum patterns, and the tall mast has red stripes. The white sun flag is flying in the wind. The large Japanese Imperial Joint Fleet escorting the Japanese Army's landing fleet finally appeared near Australia.
"Boom!" The artillery of the Japanese Navy greeted them, and the first shell was dropped on the poor, empty beach. The power of the shells falling in the sand was reduced a lot, and only a yellow sand was lifted, accompanied by thick black smoke.
After about half an hour of artillery preparation, the Japanese Army soldiers began an amphibious landing operation. The navy ’s huge and terrible transportation efficiency was fully demonstrated here again. Thousands of civilian ships and military transport ships The soldiers were sent to the unfamiliar coast.
The Japanese navy soldiers were unloaded from the warships and began to transfer to landing craft and boats. They marched towards the beaches of Australia. The waves swayed the warships. The soldiers shouted slogans and approached their targets little by little.
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" A Japanese military officer shouted hoarsely, holding back the vomiting sensation in his mouth. He drew out the command knife from his waist while staring fiercely at his men.
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" All Japanese soldiers raised their hands high, even though the long-distance sea voyage had made these soldiers white and white, and although they had been swayed by seasickness and the sway of the waves, they still used their own ability. The loudest voice that came out shouted the slogan.
With the shouting on the small boats, the coastline was close enough, one after another the Japanese Army jumped into the sea from the boat, regardless of the possibility of being drowned in the sea because of the heavy equipment.
They have been drifting in the sea for too long, longing for the taste of land, and their hometown is too small. Like hermit crabs, they want to find a spacious new home for their growth.
"Rush!" A Japanese soldier Cao stepped in the sea and lurched toward the land he was about to conquer. Behind him, the Japanese soldier carrying the Japanese flag also ran upside down. Farther away, there are already faster people climbing up the nearby reef and waving the Japanese military flag to show their bravery.
"Matsumoto Sasuke, the left wing has not been attacked by the other party. It seems that they have abandoned the trenches and fortifications." A Japanese officer wearing a major general's uniform pressed his own command knife in one hand while looking at the war zone held by his assistant in the sea breeze. map. As the commander who accompanied the first wave of decisive forces to the beach, he had his own perseverance and pride.
"General Ogawa, the landing went very smoothly. The other party showed no signs of counterattack. It seems that the Great Japanese Empire has crushed the group of Americans, and they have given up on Australia." Shao Zuo, named Matsumoto, proudly pointed to a village in the distance : "In a few minutes, we will be able to occupy there."
"The navy is as timid as a rat. We feel that our declaration of war against Germany is enemies everywhere. Although they played well in the naval battle against the United States, they still need our army to come out to win the war, right?" General Ogawa pressed With a command knife, he led his entourage and guards to the shore in the sea.
On the coast that had been controlled by the Japanese, there were teams of Japanese soldiers gathering together. They lined up neatly and then named. Then they marched in groups towards the villages in the distance, and above their heads came from naval aviation. Aircraft flew at a low altitude, with a strong taste.
On the Japanese navy battleship in the distance, an Osa is reporting the progress of the landing to Yamamoto 56: "The resistance of the other party is minimal. Except for the three army soldiers who died after drowning due to early departure from the ship, the rest of the troops have little loss."
Another officer ran over, handed the message to Yamamoto, and then asked: "Kuri Kurada calls the phone and asks whether to continue the bombardment."
"Tell him to stop the shelling, and the opponent didn't even have a decent counterattack. Why are we playing so hilariously on this side? Is it shameful to the Navy?" Yamamoto fifty-six said angrily: "Next time, after the Army calls for reinforcements, start shelling again! "
"Hi!" The officer was inexplicably scolded and had to bow his head and answer in a loud voice.
Unlike the forced landings on the islands of Philippines and Malaysia, this time the first troops of the Japanese Imperial Army landed in Australia hardly encountered any resistance. These troops easily landed on the beach. The only soldiers encountered The trouble is that the shoes are filled with sand.
The first batch of the 19th Division of the Japanese Army on the beach originally prepared some equipment for strong attack. As a result, these weapons were quickly thrown on the beach. The soldiers easily gathered together to chat, and some even had jackets. He took off, and shirtlessly welcomed the officers and men of the 13th Division who landed later.
"Welcome to Australia! This place has been occupied by us!" A Japanese soldier carrying a rifle carrying two curtains behind the helmet swinging back and forth in the wind smiled and said to his companions: "Americans are cowards, they even There is no courage to fight, we have won this war! "
His words drew cheers. Many Japanese soldiers gathered together and giggled at the field photographer with their arms raised. The Japanese prepared many things for this massive landing operation, such as being stuck at this moment. A Type 89 tank that couldn't move on the beach.
"Hurry and let the engineers land! Hurry up! If the high tide is over! Let them get the tanks trapped in the sea cement sand! Hurry!" A tank officer of a Japanese Type 89 medium tank got out of his tank, He jumped off the tall chariot and ran a long way to find the infantry unit in the same unit responsible for covering them.
Like the Italian chariot, because the welding technology is unqualified and the design concept is lagging behind, the Japanese tank is covered with dense rivet structure. This structure has been proved to have a very strong influence on the structural strength, which will be caused by being hit by shells. The rivet collapsed and caused secondary damage. However, because the Japanese Army was overwhelmed by the Navy because of production quotas, it could only use such derelict tanks that were in fact outdated.
A group of Japanese soldiers swaggered into the village and began their usual sweeping process, robbing from house to house and intrusion, instantly making this peaceful Australian fishing village jump. The unscrupulous Japanese soldiers did not mean to converge at all, smirked and drove the local white women, and for a moment they forgot that they were no longer in the land of Southeast Asia.
"Boo!" A gunshot awakened everyone. A tall and burly man in Australia killed a Japanese soldier who rushed into the house with a shotgun, so the peaceful landing operation like a tourist evolved within a few minutes. It became a massacre in mode.
No one thought that it was not the Australian army that fought back, but the local unarmed civilians. Although it was a bit exaggerated to say that these people were unarmed, they did not have the advantage of equipment compared to the Japanese landing troops. However, the ending of the battle was shocking. The Japanese soldiers who were used to bullying civilians in the occupied area were driven out of the village by the Australians who fought back. Six Japanese soldiers were killed and one was pierced. Called for the doctor to help.
After receiving the news, the frontline commander of the landing force, Matsumoto, dropped his tanks that were stuck on the beach and immediately organized a 200-person force to attack the village again. The locals immediately urged them. Paid the price of blood. More than 130 civilians were killed, and only a few children fled in a car under the of several men.
However, the good days of Japanese soldiers ended with the expansion of landing operations. In fact, many Australians choose to stay on their own and guard their hometown. Many recruits did not leave with the Americans leaving, instead they organized their own defense forces. These defense forces have as many as three divisions, but they think that the territory of Inner Australia is too large for these forces to hold the long coastline.
After consolidating the defensive position on the landing beach, some reconnaissance units of the Japanese forces encountered these remaining Australian troops on the way to the Australian hinterland. The two sides fought fiercely on several important roads.
The Australian soldiers in North Africa who let the German Wehrmacht squat down in the trenches and wait for their captives, but this time they faced the Japanese Army with great bravery. They did not retreat until they were attacked by Japanese aircraft. Landed at the landing point and captured all nearby villages.
But when the Japanese drove full force to advance inside Australia, they found that it was not the enemy's army that lay in front of them, but a desert with no end in sight. Yes, the desert is a terrain they have never seen before.
