"Now broadcast the Ming Emperor's message to the people of all countries in the Indian subcontinent..."
"Da da da......"
Dammasik Island, at the forefront of the defense line in the Johor Strait, has been filled with the sound of radio broadcasts and the sound of machine guns for the past two days.
Of course, the sound of this broadcast came from the loudspeaker of the Ming Army in the north of the Johor Strait. It said two things. First, it used twenty or thirty dialects of the Indian subcontinent, and also borrowed dozens of names and surnames. In the name of the Indian prince, he fabricated a very true lie - William died and India was divided!
The reason why this lie is true is not that William is dead and Indy is divided. But William is going to die sooner or later, he has no legitimate son to take the throne, and his first presumptive heir, Princess Victoria, is a 12-year-old girl... This is India!
Can this Indian Asan accept a 12-year-old girl as the emperor?
Therefore, the issue of Emperor William's succession has always been a thorn in the hearts of knowledgeable people in India!
If the British Empire is still strong and can firmly suppress India, then anyone can be the emperor, even if the British bring a dog, they can still be the emperor of India. But now the UK is not that strong. The UK must get the support of the "high Indians" in order to maintain India's stability while fully mobilizing India's financial, material and manpower.
In this case, if William dies, Victoria comes, and Ming Dynasty and Jin Dynasty work together to cause harm, it will be unreasonable if India does not collapse.
The second thing in the broadcast was "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty's Letter to the People of All Countries in the Indian Subcontinent". The content of this "Message to the People of India" is of course completely true. Mu Zhongjun and Zheng Guoxian would never dare to create a fake "Message to the People of India" to deceive people. It is a fake imperial edict!
However, this "Message to the People of India" was drafted with reference to Humphrey's suggestions. It removed all content related to "liberation", "equality" and "equality", and also highlighted the need to "revitalize the people of India". "Destroy the country, inherit the peerless world, and make contributions", that is, all Indian countries that were destroyed and subdued by the British Empire must recover and become independent! If a successor can be found among them, he will be restored. If he cannot be found, then he will choose another worthy person with the help of the Ming Dynasty... As for the meaning of meritorious officials, of course it means the Indian A who abandoned the British and surrendered to the Ming in the process of rise and fall. Third, they are all meritorious officials who can be granted the title of Chai Mindar, and from now on they can become landlords who can exploit all kinds of untouchables in India!
Faced with this despicable and shameless psychological warfare, Viscount Beresford sent an urgent telegram to Bombay to inquire about His Majesty's health... Don't really die! At the same time, he issued an order requiring all British and Indian officers and soldiers not to believe the rumors of "William's death and India's division", and any offenders would be shot to death!
But how do the British masters know what those Indian Asans are thinking? And even if you knew, it would be difficult to convict! Therefore, it is difficult to carry out the order to kill someone if they believe it.
Therefore, Viscount Beresford came up with what seemed to be a very clever method, ordering machine guns to be fired continuously on the front line positions to cover up the broadcasts on the other side with the sound of gunfire. In this way, Indians cannot hear the rumors and naturally they will not believe them.
This method of covering up rumors with gunshots was quite effective, because the mood of the Indian Asan stationed on the Johor Strait defense line had obviously calmed down. From the day after the Ming army started broadcasting, the Indians behind various positions began to No more crying, but doing what you should do under the command of the British officer.
Obviously, the Ming Army's rumor broadcast had no effect... But in the next ten days, the Ming Army's broadcast did not stop. The hundreds of loudspeakers placed in front of the formation continued to play over and over again. Lies repeated over and over again. The British and Indian troops on the other side of the strait had no loudspeakers to use, so they fired machine guns non-stop.
Under the cover of broadcasts and gunfire, preparations for a forced crossing of the Strait of Johor are also underway!
Because the Ming Dynasty-Japanese coalition forces used light troops to attack quickly, constantly making detours and advancing rapidly, they advanced to the north shore of the Johor Strait in a very short time. But to break through the strait, which is tightly fortified by the British and Indian troops, Japanese light infantry alone cannot do it. Therefore, the powerful Tenth Army of the Ming Army could only move forward from its stations in Songkhla and Pattani with all its heavy artillery and a large amount of ammunition.
After more than half a month of preparation, more than 100,000 Ming and Japanese soldiers, as well as hundreds of artillery pieces of various types, had quietly arrived amidst the commotion on the front line. Cannons raised their long necks on the northern shore of the Johor Strait. The battle position was piled full of ammunition. The infantrymen of the brigade entered the starting position on the north shore of the Johor Strait with rubber boats and assault boats used for sea crossing and landing.
At the same time, the Ming army's airships and SsangYong aircraft kept circling over the British and Indian army positions, and took tens of thousands of photos. The staff officers and photo analysts of the Corps Headquarters in Malacca City studied and judged these photos day and night, and also used the results of the research and judgment to create a sand table of the British and Indian defense lines.
After careful study by the staff, they found that the depth of the British-Indian defense line was not deep enough, and the fortifications were not considered strong. Only on the front line, a continuous array of barbed wire fences was built based on the seawall, and a dense fire network may also have been deployed. But as long as a breakthrough can be achieved, victory should not be far away.
However, crossing the sea, landing, forming a breakthrough, and building a bridge across the strait are not easy in any way... If the previous psychological warfare fails, then tomorrow's allied forces will inevitably face an unprecedented battle. The hard fight!
