Yuren felt like he was going crazy.
The situation was originally very good, but the ambition of Tanaka's memorial was about to be realized.
As a result, the Army pulled a big one for itself in a blink of an eye.
Millions of square kilometers of occupied territory were quietly lost.
By the way, more than two million elite troops were killed.
It even includes the Kwantung Army, the core essence of the army, the First Division, the Tank Division, etc.
All gone.
This is almost like breaking the army's backbone.
It's okay if the Army pulls the strings. If he punishes his incompetent subordinates, sends out a batch of postcards, and makes the people miserable, he can still get another million-strong army together.
Although the quality cannot be compared with the previous elites, it is always no problem to make up the numbers.
The most important thing is that Japan is an island country.
It doesn't matter if the army pulls away. As long as the navy can maintain its strength, it will be invincible.
As long as the Navy is still there, sooner or later it will make a comeback.
As a result, he was just about to choose a new prime minister from among the admirals.
The candidate pulled himself a bigger one.
World War I destroyed half of the Navy's aviation combat effectiveness.
Almost cutting off a leg of the navy.
Is this still a human being?
Looking at the pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes, Nanyun Zhongyi and Tojo Private, Yuren almost went crazy.
"Damn Nagumo, four aircraft carriers were ruined in one battle, why doesn't he die!"
"I am ordering Nagumo to commit seppuku and throw his body into the sea. He will not be allowed to set foot on Japanese soil for the rest of his life."
"Shoot all his family members and go with Tojo!"
Yuren roared angrily.
"yes!"
No one among the current attendants dares to disobey Yuren's orders.
Who knows who Yuren will implicate in his anger.
They all carried out Yuren's orders honestly.
The military police set off again, arresting Nanyun's family members throughout the city and taking them to the shooting range to be shot.
The whole of Tokyo fell into chaos again.
When Tokyo was in chaos, Wei Wu led his people to land in Chiang Mai.
At this time, Thailand had been fully occupied by Japan.
The King of Thailand and the Thai army are not much different from the Royal Association Army, and they have been helping the Japanese maintain order.
Many poor Japanese came to Southeast Asia to make a living. With the help of the occupying forces, they occupied local people's shop resources and shared the dividends of the war.
Wei Wu took the people all the way to Bangkok by car.
This is the location where the headquarters of the Westward Expedition Corps was established.
Wei Wu led people directly to Mutaguchi Lianye's office.
At this time, Mutaguchi Lian was also furious: "Trash, a bunch of trash, you can't even make a battle plan, what's the use of you!"
"Lieutenant General Muta, what made you angry?"
Wei Wu pushed the door open and walked in.
"Who are you?" Mutaguchi Lian was a little curious when he saw an unknown lieutenant general.
"I am the division commander of the independent transport division, Takeshi Higashino. I was transferred from the Northeast by Prime Minister Tojo. I am specifically responsible for the logistics work of your westward marching corps."
Wei Wu said vaguely.
"It turned out to be the elite of the Kwantung Army."
After hearing that Wei Wu said he came from the northeast, Mutaguchi Lian also subconsciously thought that Wei Wu was the Kwantung Army.
Needless to say, the Kwantung Army's status in the Japanese army is the elite among the elite.
Mutaguchi Lian naturally took a high look and immediately pulled Wei Wu to the sand table.
"Lieutenant General Higashino, this group of staff is such a waste. They can't even come up with a combat plan. They just say that the roads in the Myanmar jungle are slippery and muddy, making it difficult for vehicles and tanks to move, and making it impossible to attack. Don't you think this is shirking responsibility?"
"What if it delays the empire's plan?"
"You are from a logistics background, let's see if there is any good way."
Mutaguchi Lian also asked quickly.
"Is that so? Let me take a good look."
Wei Wu quickly lay down on the sand table and pretended to look at the terrain, but in fact his mind was spinning rapidly.
Judging from the current situation, the 100,000 westward marching regiment in Mutian's hands is the last elite that the Japanese army can draw.
If these 100,000 people could be buried in the rain forests of Myanmar, the elite soldiers trained by Japan before the war would be completely exhausted.
There are more than two million remaining soldiers. Although they seem to be a large number, they are all new recruits after the war.
The combat capabilities are not the same as those of veterans trained before the war.
Therefore, as long as these 100,000 Japanese troops are consumed, the army will basically be at the end of its war effort and will no longer be able to make any big splash.
"This is easy to handle."
Wei Wu immediately raised his head.
"When the German army attacked France, everyone thought that the Ardennes Forest was an insurmountable natural danger. But what was the result? Guderian led the armored division through the Ardennes Forest and advanced all the way to the sea, cutting off the Allied forces' retreat and forcing France surrenders."
“Now, Myanmar’s rainforests are like our Ardennes forests in East Asia.”
"The locals say it's impassable because the locals are lazy and unwilling to endure hardship."
"However, we Japanese are not afraid of hardship. What is a rainforest? It is just a forest with more water."
"As long as we pass through the Burmese rainforest, the British and Indian forces on the opposite side will definitely not expect that we will suddenly attack. Given the weakness of the British, they will panic and run away, and those Asan will only go on a hunger strike to protest."
"We can easily occupy the vast Indian subcontinent."
"I heard that Indians like gold and silver the most. There are hundreds of tons of gold hidden in those temples. As long as we can capture the Indian subcontinent, all of us will make extraordinary achievements and be promoted to the next level. It’s a small matter, and maybe you can be promoted to marshal because of it.”
Wei Wu painted big cakes for everyone.
"Marshal!" Mutaguchi Lianye's eyes shone with excitement.
He considers himself a brave and capable warrior.
He was not promoted to marshal entirely because there were not enough battlefields for him to perform.
Otherwise, we would not have taken the initiative to provoke the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.
As a result, most of the benefits were taken away by other direct line officers, and until now he is just a lieutenant general.
Now, he saw a huge opportunity falling in front of him.
If we can really cross the Burmese rainforest, we can directly take over the Indian subcontinent.
The achievements are innumerable.
Not to mention being promoted to one marshal, being promoted to three will still make you rich.
"However, Myanmar's jungles are densely wooded and the roads are slippery and muddy, making cars impassable. How should we transport supplies?"
a staff officer asked.
"This is simple."
Wei Wu waved his hand.
"Cars can't travel, so we can use cattle, sheep, horses and donkeys to transport our supplies. Moreover, these animals can be slaughtered when they arrive and turned into our rations."
“Wouldn’t this save a lot of transportation capacity?”
"You just need to bring the ammunition you need."
"The rations are rice balls, and the rest are replaced by cattle, sheep and other livestock."
"When we get to the front line, if the supplies are not enough, I will find a way to deploy planes to airdrop them to you."
"I am a professional in logistics. If you can't trust others, how can you not trust me?"
"If others can cheat you, can I still cheat you?"
Wei Wu said bewilderedly from the side.
