Chapter 865 Watson is gambling
"There's no combat mission, why do you want me to go there?" Takeshita Shun glanced at him and asked.
Ono was furious. "The navy started fighting. This morning, they suddenly attacked an important port in southern Burma. If nothing unexpected happens, the Japanese army will launch an offensive against Burma. At this time, you are not going to help your sister quickly grab some money to expand our business, but you are still sleeping here. How can you have the nerve to sleep here?"
Takeshita Shun stood up and looked at Ono; "Where did you get the news?"
There was no news here yet, but Ono knew about it.
"I ran into Deng Yaoxian on my way back just now. Deng Yaoxian said, 'Hurry up! Time is money, time is life. Right now, what we need to do is hurry up and get the money. This is the purpose of our independent brigade.'"
"If what Fourteenth said is true, then it must be true. Takeshita, perhaps Xiao Ya has already learned of the standoff between us and Watsontown and persuaded Hase Kiyoshi to test the waters there. Regardless, the Navy has already made a choice for the headquarters. We must quickly assist them in advancing quickly and let Watsontown know one thing: the British army they may have to rely on is a typical example of useless people."
"From a short-term perspective, we're aiding the enemy, but from a long-term perspective, we're considering the future of the mountain city." Before Zhou Weiguo could finish his long speech, Takeshita Shun raised his hand to stop him. "I'm leaving now to reunite with my sister."
He stood up and left, and Ono added behind him: "If you can't grab a million in supplies, don't come back."
The Yamashiro General Headquarters would receive the news first, and military and foreign affairs could not be separated, so after the headquarters learned of the Japanese army's movements, it immediately told the foreign affairs department.
"The Third Fleet suddenly launched an attack on the southern ports of Myanmar three hours ago. Did you say that this was your eldest sister's consideration or the decision of the Japanese army?" Fatty Kong, who was having dinner with Asaka Hideki, looked up and asked.
Chaoxiang Xiuling took a bite of her food. "The headquarters didn't make a decision so quickly. I think this was probably a test move made by the eldest sister after she learned of the confrontation between Nanny Wang and Watsonton. Or maybe she was forcing the headquarters to make a choice."
"So, the Japanese army will soon fully resume their previous plan and continue to occupy Southeast Asia." Fatty Kong took a sip of soup; "Should we go find Robert and the others?"
Fatty Kong didn't understand military issues and didn't want to understand them. He just wanted to know whether action was going to be taken here.
"Brother Kong, there's no rush. Come, have a chicken drumstick." Chao Xiang Xiuling tore off a chicken drumstick and handed it to Fatty Kong before taking another one in her hand and taking a bite. "If we go there now, it's called begging. If we wait for them to come to us, it's called asking for help. It's your choice. After all, you're the person in charge and I'm the deputy. I'll listen to you."
The fat on Fatty Kong's face trembled before he swallowed the chicken in a few big mouthfuls. "Then let's take a look at their situation."
I watched it for six or seven days.
For six or seven days, Watsonton did not take any action, and the Japanese army did not seem to make any greater choices.
"What are you doing?" Fatty Kong put his chubby hands behind his back and paced back and forth in the room.
Chaoxiang Xiuling, who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, saw him spinning around and couldn't help but put the newspaper down. "Can you please stop spinning around like a top? I'm almost fainting."
"You're about to faint, and I'm about to explode. Watsonton hasn't made any movement yet. What do you think they're planning? They're not really thinking that if the Japanese attack over there, it's a way to contain them and leave us out, right?"
Asaka Hiderei hummed. "That's a possibility. After all, everyone knows that Southeast Asia and South Asia are the two places that Britain regards as its second homeland. They can give up their interests in Canada, but they will not let go of the Southeast Asian forward observation post in South Asia. Because if they lose it, South Asia will be exposed to the Japanese army."
"Are they gambling?" Fatty Kong turned his head and asked.
Chaoxiang Xiuling nodded: "Yes, their local troops can stop the Japanese attack."
The Ninth War Zone Commander Headquarters also knew about the situation in Myanmar.
At the command center, Xiao Zhuge, with his arms folded, looked at the Japanese army's situation and asked Zhou Weiguo beside him, "What do you think of this matter, especially since Watsonton hasn't made a decision yet?"
"They are betting that the 18 British troops and 5 local troops blocking the way there can stop the attacks of the th Division, the th Division, and the Imperial Guards Division.
The Imperial Guards Division suffered a heavy loss in the Ninth War Zone and certainly could not go back as they would be easily beaten. Therefore, the headquarters kept issuing orders to keep them away from the place that caused them pain and transferred them to Malacca to form the 18th Army with the 5th Division and the 4th Division. Its commander was Terauchi Hisaichi.
This is his current organization, but according to Zhou Weiguo's idea, this is only temporary and this force will be expanded in the future.
"The Japanese are no longer in a strong position in terms of numbers and weapons, so it's understandable that they have this view." Chief of Staff Wu took a sip of tea from the sofa. "We need to break this situation, because it's not just Watsontown that's gambled and waited, but Tokyo as well. Don't forget, Tokyo hasn't made the right choice yet."
Little Zhuge returned to his seat and sat down. "The command has fully entrusted the liaison with Watsonton to Fatty Kong and Chaoxiang Xiuling. Fatty Kong has taken a huge risk this time and made a promise in front of them."
He looked at Zhou Weiguo who was sitting next to him; "Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand. I won't let Lord Kong down. Takeshita Shun has already set off a few days ago and should be reunited with Xiao Ya now. I believe they will work together well and handle this matter properly."
Zhou Weiguo narrowed his eyes after he finished speaking and said, "Useless people are useless. Just because their numbers increase, they won't get rid of the fact that they are useless."
"The head of the family is right," Minamizo Akiko, who had been acting as a constant companion, echoed enthusiastically. "We don't need to worry about what Watsonton is thinking. As long as we know a little, we can rest easy and just eat and drink. As for the rest, it's all just a passing cloud."
"Oh." Little Zhuge glanced at Minamizō Akiko. "Tell me about that point."
