Jagged Germany

   Manila, Island Army Southern Command.

  In the past few days, General Hisao Nishio, the commander of the Southern Army, is in a pretty good mood. The Lantian-Indian Front Army has successfully landed in Borneo, and officially launched an attack on the German army. Although, the battle may be a bit difficult. But General Nishio Shouzo believes that all this will be a good start. After the island nation's army continuously lands on Borneo, the balance of victory will definitely tilt towards them.

  In addition to paying attention to the battle of the Lanyin Front Army in Borneo, General Nishio Hisao is also urging the 14th Front Army to hurry up and land on Borneo. In addition, the 7th Front Army and the 18th Front Army under the Southern Army also had to speed up to the Philippine Islands. Once the island army has completely occupied Borneo, the next step is to attack Indochina and Australia. At that time, more troops will need to be invested.

"After the 14th Front Army lands on Borneo, with the strength of the Lanyin Front Army and the 14th Front Army, it should not be a big problem to defeat or even eliminate the German 23rd Army. At that time, only the German army in the Indochina Peninsula will be left The 11th Army and Australia's German 12th Army and 24th Army.

  The 11th Army is one of the elite German armies. It is powerful. If you want to destroy them, it will be very difficult. Our casualties will not be small. After all, that is the first-line troops of the German army! However, if you want to completely occupy Nanyang, you must eliminate them! No matter how high the price is, we must ensure victory! General Nishio Hiszo looked at the map and said secretly.

  General Hisao Nishio knew very well that if the island nation wanted to occupy Nanyang and Australia, it had to eliminate the four German armies deployed here. And it is necessary to eliminate these German troops in the shortest possible time. Otherwise, once the time drags on, it is very likely that there will be variables. And this is exactly the problem they need to face.

"The two armies of the German army in Australia are even more difficult to deal with. The area there is too large, and if you want to occupy it all, you need to invest a lot of troops. Besides, Australia's flat terrain is very suitable for armored forces to fight. And these are all Our disadvantage!" Admiral Hisao Nishio continued his analysis.

  The army of the island country does not invest much in armor power, which makes their armor combat power completely at the third-rate level among the world's armies. The tanks equipped are small tanks with weak armor, and they may be able to deal with infantry without anti-armor weapons. But if you want to engage in an armored battle with the enemy's powerful armored forces, you will undoubtedly seek your own death.

   These are all things that worry General Nishio Hiszo. Their enemy is the German Army, which is known as the number one in the world. Apart from the superiority of troops, the island army seems to have no other advantages at all.

   "Bang bang!" There was a knock on the office door.

   "Come in!" General Nishio Hiszo said.

  The Chief of Staff of the Southern Army, Lieutenant General Tsukada Gong, walked in with a serious face.

   Seeing Lieutenant General Tsukada's appearance, General Nishio Hiszo suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

   "Tukada-kun, what happened?" General Hisao Nishio asked.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the battle in Borneo has changed. The elite armored units of the German 23rd Army suddenly appeared in Kinabatangan and launched an attack on the army of the Lantian Front Army that was besieging Kinabatangan. Against the attack of the German armored forces with hundreds of tanks and a large number of armored vehicles, the troops of the Lanyin Front Army may not be able to withstand the attack!" Lieutenant General Tsukada said.

"What? How did this happen? Didn't the information I got before say that the main force of the Germans is still in Brunei? How could it be possible to suddenly appear in Kinabatangan? What did those intelligence personnel do?" Hisao Nishio The general cursed.

"Your Excellency, the Germans may have premeditated this. When we just launched the landing operation, their armored forces secretly arrived at Kinabatangan. After they were ready, they arrived at Kinabatangan. Hong Kong and Lahad Datu retreated. All of this is a trap. But the Lanyin front army probably didn’t realize it at all. So, now they have fallen into the trap of the Germans.” Lieutenant General Tsukada said with a sad face.

  General Hisao Nishio's face was also very ugly, because not only the Lanyin front army did not expect that this would be a trap for the Germans. Didn't even they think that all this is a trap? However, this would be a devastating blow to the Lanyin Front Army and even the entire Southern Army.

"Once the Lan-Indian Front Army is severely damaged or even wiped out by the Germans, the consequences will be unimaginable. Even Siena Port and Lahad Datu will be recaptured by them. Therefore, Commander, we must make preparations early! "Said Lieutenant General Tsukada Gong.

  General Hisao Nishio nodded his head. If the Lanyin Front Army is severely injured or wiped out, the consequences will indeed be very serious. If Sennaport and Lahad Datu were recaptured by the German army again, it would really make things worse.

"Send a telegram to Honma-kun to let the 14th Front Army speed up. In any case, we must ensure that Senna Port and Lahad Datu are in our hands! In addition, send a telegram to Kawabe-kun, even if they all die in battle, we must Keep Sennaport and Lahad Datu!" General Hisao Nishio ordered.

  If Sennaport and Lahad Datu are recaptured by the Germans, they may have to fight another tragic beach landing. Also, that would take a lot of time. This will be very unfavorable to the island army.

   "Hi, Your Excellency Commander." Lieutenant General Tsukada immediately went to send a telegram.

  The 14th Group Army of the Island Army has already started its landing plan in Borneo. The 35th Army and 41st Army under the 14th Group Army will land in Sinar Port and Lahad Datu respectively.

The 35th Army is a powerful infantry army with four divisions and an independent mixed brigade. Although the 41st Army has only one 8th Division, there are several corps and detachments under its command, and its strength is also not to be underestimated. watch for.

   It's just that the news that the Lanyin front army was unfavorable in the battle in Borneo and suffered a devastating blow was spread back to the mainland of the island country almost immediately.

  After the new Prime Minister Mitsumasa Minai learned of the news, he was furious and demanded that the army must come up with a countermeasure. After all, the Lanyin Front Army is a powerful force with more than 200,000 people. Now it has almost lost everything, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the island army. At the same time, this is also related to the next operations of the island army, and it must be dealt with carefully.
