Vol 3 Chapter 436: Attack Indonesia (middle)

January 21, 1 Mantan Island (Remember our l
Although Indonesia covers an area of ​​2 million square kilometers, the terrain is very complicated, mainly the terrain of the island country's mountains. However, the land is scattered, like a strip surrounding the Malacca Strait.
The main territories, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Java, Sutera and many other large islands, are located in the main thoroughfare of Malacca.
This is also the only direction that the Japanese troops in Southeast Asia can retreat. Any other direction is a dead end. Further south is the vast sea and Australia. The east and west directions are Chinese and their air force that firmly controls the strait. , Even if the Japanese army intentionally fled to the Allied sphere of influence, they could not escape on a large scale.
However, although Indonesia's area is not small, it actually faces the problem of territorial dispersion and excessive scope of defense
According to the policies formulated by the Japanese army, about 200,000 Japanese troops were scattered to various regions of Indonesia, and the remaining 500,000 Japanese troops entered the largest island in Indonesia and Kalimantan, the third largest island in the world.
Although Kalimantan Island is only a few kilometers away from the Chinese Hanzhong Province, the island area is large and the terrain is very complicated. The island area of ​​more than 700,000 ordinary kilometers can provide a large strategic depth.
Perhaps the land area of ​​700,000 square kilometers is not obvious at first glance. It may be just that the emperor team led by Zhang Shusheng captured the land area in half a month. However, compared to Japan, it has a completely different meaning.
Because the entire area of ​​Japan is less than 400,000 square kilometers
The Japanese army chose to weaken the defense in other parts of Indonesia, so that the Japanese army in those places dispersed into the mountains and forests in the form of guerrillas, while Kalimantan Island concentrated its troops in the jungle in order to fight the squadron that must land on the island to the maximum extent possible. Delay time for Chinese to calm Southeast Asia; make Chinese pay as much as possible
This is a Japanese Supreme Command hidden in the mountains and forests. Matsui Ishigen's headquarters is not located in the city. In order to withstand the Chinese bombing, the Japanese army took the main force to hide in the mountains and forests; blocked the main roads and left some troops to defend the city. The timid Indonesians only need a very small number of Japanese troops to manage and deter, and the Japanese troops hiding in the mountains are to counter the Chinese landing at any time.
Where the Japanese Command is located, a small house deep in the banana forest is where Matsui Ikane lived.
Evening Indonesia is also rainy in winter; heavy rain washes the banana forest
Matsui Ikone is making tea silently, the so-called Japanese tea ceremony
"Under the Commander"
In the distance, three Japanese military officers came over in the rain and holding umbrellas. Advancing was Japan ’s Southeast Asian General Staff Chief Lieutenant General Nakajima and two senior Japanese generals.
Matsui Ikone continued to be immersed in the tea ceremony, raised his hand to signal that they were sitting, and did not speak; until the tea was finally brewed, he got up and motioned to everyone to taste
"Thirty Chinese New Year; Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve"
Matsui Ishigen said lightly, and finally provoked this unavoidable topic, the Chinese military threat
"The inspection under the commander went well"
All of you present here are high-ranking Japanese and Southeast Asian troops; Nakajima today did not shy away and asked directly
"If the Chinese attack these places, it should take a year or even longer to complete," Matsui Ishigen said lightly. The Japanese troops mentioned in the tone seemed to be dead.
In his vision, these Japanese troops are already completely abandoned objects, of course, not only them, these Japanese troops on Kalimantan Island will also be eventually abandoned
A very cruel question, unless the Japanese here can support the Allied forces' victory on the battlefield of World War II; then, they will be the last ones, waiting to die.
However, with the increasing preparations of the Chinese people across the strait, including the Matsui Ishigen, it is very clear that the Chinese will not let the Japanese troops in Southeast Asia wait for the Allies to reverse the situation; instead, they will concentrate their forces to solve the last remaining Southeast Asian The Japanese army
"Recently some officers are talking about when the Chinese on the other side will call. When the commander is absent, I have ordered the arrest of several officers and shot them in public."
Nakajima said seriously now that he thinks it is necessary to deal with rumors at this time.
Ishigen Matsui nodded, saying that he knew the matter, but said, "The Chinese should be coming soon. They will have the discussion and the normal warriors of the empire are all brave. What they fear is unknown. Not fighting "
"Under the commander, according to your judgment, when will the Chinese attack?"
I asked Nakajima
Matsui Ikine took a sip of tea, thinking a little bit, and said halfway, "If it was five years ago, if I encountered a similar problem, I would definitely answer that the Chinese would take action after the festival, but they have given us too much these years. Accident, so I think if they do n’t attack tomorrow, they may postpone the attack until after the 15th of the first month
Although the festival is of great significance to China, it also has a great impact on the Chinese people in defeating the Japanese Empire and occupying Indonesia. "
There was silence for a while, tomorrow?
Tomorrow is the first day of the Chinese Lunar New Year. Is it the most festive day for the Chinese. Will the Chinese really choose to attack Indonesia tomorrow?
And the same problem is now facing Zhang Shusheng
Everything is ready, Chief of Staff Jiang Baili, Minister of Operations Su Yuren quietly awaiting the chairman's decision
Zhang Shusheng lit a cigarette. He didn't know the benefits of the New Year's Eve attack, at least to make the Japanese hurry.
But remembering those millions of expeditions who shed blood and sweated millions, he felt that even with thousands of reasons and excuses, the empire still guilty of them
The meaning of New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve to the Chinese is not just a festival. It also contains a strong affection and a strong Chinese heritage. It is the first festival of the Chinese nation from ancient times to the present.
Delaying the offensive time may encounter a lot of difficulties, but if you increase the intensity of the air strike, it will only pay a little military expenditure, and delaying the offensive will not affect the operation in essence.
Not only the empires and soldiers in Southeast Asia, but also the millions of Chinese sons and daughters. They are far away from other countries and even thousands of miles away from their hometowns. They have given blood and life to the empire. The empire should at least return them a peaceful Section
"Order the New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve during the National Army Festival, and suspend all offensive operations in the three days of the second day, so that everyone can have a good time. The logistics departments around the festival will increase the supply during the festival and double the supply of food, sweets and vegetables
Zhang Shusheng finally made a decision. In his tone, he expressed his deep concern for the soldiers. "Let everyone have a good holiday, listen carefully, and watch the festival party.
When the war in the theater is over, let them take turns to go home and see their parents. "
Barracks, Emperor, Kapo, Southeast Asia
Here is the commander of the Indonesian Combat Operations Command to the Indonesian Combat Forces in Jun.
During the Battle of Southeast Asia, Admiral Wang Jun was commanded by the 19th Army of the Ruishan Group Army because of his outstanding performance and was promoted to commander of Southeast Asian operations against Indonesia and commander of the 19th Army, while Lieutenant General Jopson was in charge of commanding the 28th Group Army, which is an army adapted from the original field jungle forces in Myanmar. The ratio of local soldiers to soldiers in Southeast Asian provinces has reached 1 to 2.
In addition, the 9th Army under the command of Zhang Zhizhong edited the 33rd Army under the command of General Qi Xueqi, the 162th division commander of the former 9th Army, and the 32nd Army under the command of General Luo Chengjun. Fighting Indonesia
That is to say, a total of five full formations will be used in this battle against Indonesia. The 19th formation is the sharpest mountain jungle formation in the emperor formation, the 9th formation is an old force, and the 28th formation is an old mountain formation. A team based on Di Rui, the 32nd Army, and the 33rd Army are the formation
However, although the 32nd Army, the 33rd Army, and the 35th Army are all composed, the soldiers are not soldiers. They are all assembled from the emperor army and Southeast Asian provinces, especially the Burmese army. Their loyalty is very high. The battle is very fierce. After brutal training and baptism of the battlefield, those Burmese soldiers have already been sharp mountain jungle troops. The battle is fierce and they are not afraid of death. They are also very satisfied with the high treatment and high reward of the emperor.
Six group forces, a total of nearly 800,000 troops will participate in ground battles against Indonesia
Among them, General Jopson will command the war in the western region of Indonesia, General Zhang Zhi will direct the war in the direction of Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, and General Wang Jun will personally command the war in Kalimantan Island, which is heavily constrained by Japanese troops.
In the direction of western Indonesia, the 28th Army Corps of Jopson will be used to move towards Central Jakarta
In the face of the fighting, Lieutenant General Zhang Zhi will command the 9th Army to attack Jakarta, and respond to the 28th Army ’s offensive in the west. After consolidating the 28th Army, it will head to the east of Indonesia.
The battle on Kalimantan Island is the most important. General Wang Jun will be responsible for commanding the 19th Army, the 32nd Army, the 33rd Army, the 35th Army, and a total of four army groups. The most powerful regional warfare
"General"
As soon as Wang Jun and his party walked into the barracks, they saw a hot scene
In this regiment-level military camp, when Wang Jun arrived, the soldiers were placing tables, chairs, and benches on the open space of the military camp.
"General"
"General"
"General"
Everyone saw Wang Jun coming and happily stopped to salute the report
"Today is the thirtieth year of the New Year. It will be a big dinner right away. Everyone is so busy. Don't worry about me, haha."
As Wang Jun walked and watched, some soldiers were attached to the barracks, and some soldiers were ready for firecrackers. Although the barracks had various regulations, on the notice of their superiors, they could make an exception on this special festival.
There is no problem in safety. After all, some fraternal units do not rest. They are on duty 24 hours a day, and the airport and radar station are on alert all the time. It is because they have exchanged holidays for these fraternal units.
In the barracks in Kapo, there are also several units that remain on alert 24 hours a year, even in the thirtieth year of the New Year. There is no way to celebrate the holiday. They need to both press the place and warn the enemy of any damage and sneak in.
Walking in the barracks, for the first time, Admiral Wang Jun temporarily put aside the continuous thoughts about the war, and he is now an ordinary officer, a soldier who thinks about himself.
Looking at the busy officers and soldiers, he couldn't help but remember that his hometown was at the border of Sichuan and Yunnan; the customs were more local than the customs in Sichuan. During the New Year, killing pigs and killing pigs, and making Chinese New Year's grass and rakes, and potting Sausages, etc. are very lively
He also fought in the out-of-town soldiers. He had not returned to his hometown for two years. Although his wife was an army doctor and a military doctor, the old man in the family could not follow his army's parents who were nearly seventy years old. Maybe the war in Southeast Asia will soon end; then you will have a vacation and you can accompany the elderly
The officers and men were busy, the howling of pigs, the sound of yelling, the collision of pots and pans ... and soon the new year's dinner was prepared, pots and pans of running dishes were served. Table, everyone sat around the table and had a big meal
Wang Jun casually found a table to sit down. There was no military seat in the military tradition; even if there was a small stove in the cafeteria, he had to pay. He held up a rice wine cup with a quantified share and said loudly
"Brothers, today is a big meal. My Wang Junwei said, thank my brothers for their outstanding performance on the battlefield in Myanmar. Every time during the holiday season, I think twice. I don't talk much today, just two good news to tell you.
First, the chairman has decided that from now on, during the two-month rest period of the troop after the war in each theater, everyone can go home to see their parents, wives and children.
Second, just at noon today, the cable from Jiapo to the country has been connected and commissioned. After you have eaten large meals, you can go to the communication room of the Youth League to line up. You can call your parents. Call the village and anyone you can think of. You can call any of them. The 300 brand-new machines in each regiment are the supplementary machines ordered by the chairman to be used in the next level of government affairs in Southeast Asia. This is our special trial "
"Long live, long live the chairman ..."
Many people, especially local soldiers, have left their hometown for the shortest time in a year, and have not returned home for two years. Although the letter has been written, the telegraph has not been broken, and the military battalion also calls the empire part of the house on a monthly basis. , But the thought of home has never faded
After the dinner was over, military festivals began to be broadcast on the open space of the barracks, while the soldiers enthusiastically lined up in front of the temporary communication room, watching the show while waiting to fight.
"Uncle San, it's me, I'm Wei Yuan ... Ah? I'll fight you in Jiapo ... It's true, haha, uncle, Happy New Year's Eve; ... help me call my parents ... "
"Dad, it's me, my second child ..."
"Mom, it's me. I'm giving you a New Year's greeting in Kapo. Well, the chairman said, after the battle is over, I can go home and see you ..."
"Jaw, I haven't been in contact for a long time ... Yeah, I'm assured in Jiapo that our casualty rate is very low, we can't eat guns all the time ... If you are disabled, you won't be afraid to do business with compensation I can still play a small card with you ... "
"Brother, it's me ... what about my nephew? ..."
Admiral Wang Jun didn't hit the first one, but waited, listening quietly to them and his family, pulling homely, speaking different dialects, but having the same greetings, until the soldiers were all done, It is half past midnight
He and some senior military officers came forward and picked up the online connection. Before they were able to fight with their loved ones like other soldiers, they could not hear the voices of their loved ones. Until today, the line from Myanmar to the country was officially commissioned. Finished, got a chance
After dialing, it quickly passed
"Dad, I'm San Er ..."
Admiral Wang Jun spoke, only tears could not help but slip down
Listening to that, his father's trembling voice was different from ordinary soldiers. Wang Jun felt a great responsibility. He knew that the day after tomorrow would start a full-scale attack on Indonesia. He could only succeed and not fail for himself or for himself. To bring those lovely soldiers home
According to the combat plan, Indonesian combat base was given high attention.
Only a few high-ranking military officers, including Wang Jun, knew that the Chairman of UU Books, www.uukanshu.com, personally ordered the deployment of a variety of weapons of mass destruction, including gas bombs and special cloud bombs, incendiary bombs, Numerous special equipment including large and vehicle flamethrowers for Indonesian operations
The chairman personally instructed that in the course of fighting against Indonesia, there is no need to pay special attention to the casualties of Indonesians, that is, no need to pay special attention to civilian casualties. Second, the Japanese army does not need to attack, it can be dominated by siege, and it can even be difficult to destroy directly Rushing into the mountains with barbed wire, bunkers, and minefields. If you ca n’t do it, you can set the mountain on fire. Anyway, as long as you can destroy the ghost, you can use it.
The mountainous terrain of this tropical jungle in Indonesia is very complicated, and it can't cause huge losses because of the mentality of winning quickly.
The eclectic offensive against Indonesia will be a standard for future jungle warfare. Wang Jun will use his rich commanding experience when fighting in Myanmar, with a high and overall commanding ability, and the leader will launch on the third day of the new year. Total offensive against Indonesia
Three days on a business trip, I came back and felt that I had lost my status. I did n’t dare to read the book review area. I waited until the end of these two or three days to see the criticism.
Writing is a bit slower, and the state has not been good in the past two days, but it is not too prison 1
