Chapter 729 You don’t think you can really succeed, do you?
Southern Annan.
The firepower of the naval guns has completely destroyed the few firing points and coastal defense artillery.
On the densely packed landing craft, the Marines armed with rifles and machine guns, with the assistance of naval guns and anti-aircraft weapons, struggled to the beach.
"Look, what a beautiful picture! If I had a camera, I would definitely record this wonderful day."
On the left bridge of the Izumo, Xiao Ya, wearing a cape, looked at the landing craft struggling forward in the blue water. Without even seeing the soldiers' faces, she could sense what kind of mentality these people were in.
There must be a determined smile on their faces.
After listening to Xiao Ya's words, Gao Qiaoyi silently looked at the general beside him whose face had turned dark.
In the end, the general made a wise choice according to his wife's wishes, which was to attack the coastal city.
He had also asked himself why he did this. In a word, it was completely out of helplessness.
First, the Marines have been driven to extremes by the chaos caused by Takeshita Shun and Miyamoto Shigeru. If they return directly without attacking, it might cause a mutiny.
Second, the lady’s goal was to massacre Annan as well. Of course, the lady never mentioned this, but that was what she meant.
The General, who had boarded the now weak ship of the Yamashiro, had no choice at all.
"You should behave like a human being." Hase Kiyoshi looked at Xiao Ya with a dark face. He really couldn't see why this was worth recording. As a qualified navy officer, was it really honorable for him to engage in such banditry of murder and robbery?
"General, don't you think that if such a passionate photo were published in your local newspapers, it would be exciting news? Don't you think that publishing such a photo would make the people admire your navy's efforts for the empire even more?"
"I think so." Takeshita Shun forced a smile and took over Xiao Ya's words, looking at the troops just as they were landing. "My Imperial Navy, braving the enemy's fierce artillery fire, charged forward with all their might, regardless of casualties, fighting for the Empire's glorious path. How heroic!"
Too lazy to say anything.
Hasegawa Kiyoshi thought that he was eloquent in the past, but in front of Xiao Ya and Takeshita Shun, he felt that his eloquence was actually a joke.
He looked at the smoke-filled battlefield, put his hands behind his back, and slowly turned back to the command tower.
Out of sight, out of mind. If you don’t see it, just pretend nothing happened.
He wanted to hide, but Xiao Ya walked in accompanied by Alice.
Chang Guqing, who had put out the fire after picking up his teacup, glanced at her and said, "Now that this is over, shouldn't you guys go back?"
Xiao Ya nodded. "Yes, but before that, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Kowloon. I've thought carefully and decided to temporarily set up the perfume factory in Kowloon. This will make it easier for us to obtain raw materials. Another point is that the Third Fleet will be stationed here permanently. With you watching over it, no one will dare to act recklessly."
Chang Guqing believed this absolutely. He nodded and said, "Okay, just let me know where you need it."
As he was speaking, the Izumo's communications director came up to him. "General, this is a secret message from headquarters."
Hase Kiyoshi received the message and was told to leave, then he opened the code book.
Xiao Ya came over slowly. Chang Guqing looked up at him and said, "How about I give you one?"
"No, this is for your navy, what would I do with it?"
Then why don't you come over and take a look?
Hase Kiyoshi rolled his eyes and lowered his head to continue translating.
After a moment, he finished reading the translation and said to Xiao Ya, "I'm afraid you're going to be in trouble."
"What?" Xiao Ya, who had returned to the sofa and sat down to drink tea, raised her head and answered.
Alice didn't wait for Hase Kiyoshi to say anything and went over to take the telegram.
Berlin is gathering troops across the Channel and may launch an attack on the British mainland. The Third Fleet should be prepared to attack southern South Asia, annihilate the enemy's South Asian fleet and escort the army.
Naval base.
After reading the content, Xiao Ya put it aside and nodded. "It is indeed a problem. If Berlin attacks the British mainland, they will be unable to cope with it and will definitely withdraw fleets and main forces from all over the country to return to rescue. Then you will have a chance, and once you control the eastern Indian Ocean region."
Xiao Ya didn't say anything else. After all, everyone understood, so he didn't need to explain it too clearly.
Chang Guqing nodded. "Well, you can't conquer these places. Once we control them, we will encircle your mountain city from South Asia and Southeast Asia. From then on, this vast territory will be under our control. You will have no chance of winning."
"I see that your chest seems to have straightened a lot. You don't think that you can really accomplish this, do you?" Xiao Ya saw him sitting up straight, put down the teacup and chuckled.
"I don't see what else you can do. At Dunkirk, the Allied forces of over 400,000 men were surrounded by Guderian's army, and the navy that came to the rescue was attacked by the Berlin High Seas Fleet and the Air Force. They lost no less than 200 transport ships and warships. I really don't see how they can stop the Berlin landing."
"Your calculations are quite good, but my Lord General, have you forgotten one thing? We in Shancheng will not allow you to act without a plan. If you do so, then what's the difference between us and just sitting there waiting to die?"
Hasegawa Kiyoshi lit a cigarette. The roar outside no longer affected him. After all, the fighting outside was more exciting than the news here.
Today he wanted to see how the mountain city could be broken in such a situation, and whether Xiao Ya in front of him really had a solution or was he just pretending.
"I can't think of any way you can stop this. After all, the purpose of Berlin's attack is to sweep across and control it. Then, then, they can attack the North Soviet Union. In this way, my Empire and them can divide the world equally."
"That's a good dream." Xiao Ya chuckled and walked over to Chang Guqing and said with a smile, "General, you are right. If it goes according to plan, it will indeed be so. However, you have forgotten one thing."
"What?" Hasegawa Kiyoshi dragged a chair over and pointed. "Sit down and tell me. Why are you standing so high up? How can I influence you? Don't put pressure on me."
Xiao Ya sat next to them, but Alice went to get some red wine and poured it for the two of them.
In such a game, if there is no alcohol to accompany it, it seems that something is missing.
"Pour yourself a glass." Xiao Ya had never considered Alice her secretary, because she knew that, to use the ancient term, Alice was a political marriage, and the object of this marriage was her own Ah Wen.
"Thank you, Madam." Alice responded, poured a glass of red wine and sat next to Xiao Ya.
After Alice sat down, Xiao Ya looked at Hasegawa Qing with a faint smile. "You actually said the answer yourself, didn't you?"
