Bulgarian Empire
Chapter 98, The Explosion of Pit Huo Attributes
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? When Britain and France were busy suppressing the colonial rebellion, they did not forget to check the Japanese spy issue, especially after the outbreak of the Philippine rebellion.
Although the Japanese government has ordered overseas espionage organizations to suspend their activities, and the military has also ordered espionage organizations to shrink their scope of activities, they are used to treating government orders as toilet paper, and these organizations are obviously not so obedient.
The intelligence organizations directly under the government or the military are okay. They all became honest after receiving the order, but other messy intelligence organizations are different.
Even some intelligence organizations have never received orders at all, and their existence is kept secret from the government and military.
Against this background, Japan's industries in Southeast Asia were immediately hit by a devastating blow. Mr. Churchill, who had suffered a lot in China, had the second fire after he came to Southeast Asia, and it burned on the heads of the Japanese.
How is it possible to put down the rebellion in a short period of time without sending reinforcements in the country?
You must know that the main counter-insurgency army belonging to Mr. Churchill is still being formed. So far, all he can use is tens of thousands of troops from the Southeast Asian colonies, and the Royal Navy can provide cooperation.
To deal with island rebellions like those in the Visayas, there was a burst of bombardment first, and then a counter-insurgency army landed. An island could be recovered in as fast as ten days and a half a month, and as slow as two months.
But the rebellion that has spread to Malaysia is different. It is easy to defeat them, but it is difficult to eliminate them.
They have also learned the art of war. Relying on the dense jungle, they come out to attack several cities from time to time. Mr. Churchill, who is short of troops, just came to light the first fire of the new official, and was taught how to use soldiers.
After fighting a few battles, he accepted his fate, and it was impossible to suppress the rebellion in a short time.
Under his astonishing strategic deployment, in just one month, he lost 20,000 troops, the scope of activities of the rebels doubled, and almost Singapore fell.
Mr. Churchill also knew that he was afraid. If the fight continues like this, it is estimated that all Southeast Asia will be lost before the counter-insurgency army arrives.
Insufficient military ability does not mean that political ability is also ineffective. The Dutch government can find someone to cover the tank and push its own responsibilities. Couldn't Mr. Churchill do it?
You know, he is a professional player in this field. Looking around, he found that it is most reliable to blame the Japanese, since they already have criminal records anyway.
Then, the British Southeast Asian colonial government, under the order of Churchill, the colonial minister, began to sweep up Japanese industries, and had to find out if there was no problem.
If it doesn't work, they will frame it. Anyway, the officials of the colonial government are like grasshoppers on the same rope with him.
Tokyo
The Japanese government has been furious. If John Bull hadn't been a little too strong at this time, it is estimated that the two sides would have fought long ago.
This is really bullying. In order to find out the Japanese spies, tens of thousands of Japanese nationals were arrested in just over half a month, and there were not a few of them who were wiped out.
Protest, must protest!
But at this time, Mr. Churchill didn't care about the Japanese protests. The problem of the Southeast Asian rebellion was too big, and he fought a series of defeats. More than twenty thousand.
In order to stabilize the situation, he mobilized domestic relations, borrowing two divisions from Australia, one division from New Zealand, and two divisions from India.
Coupled with the troops in the original colony, he can barely stabilize the situation. All the larger islands in the Philippine Visayas have been lost and are still being recovered.
More than half of Malaysia fell, but the main cities were still in the hands of the colonial government. There was also a rebellion in Brunei, and the rebellion in Singapore was suppressed.
There was a rebellion in Sri Lanka, Burma began to be unstable, and the Bolshevik party appeared in Bangladesh.
However, the anti-flag has not yet been raised.
According to the current situation, Mr. Churchill was surprised to find that even if his counter-insurgency army arrived, he would not be sure to suppress the colonial rebellion.
For this reason, he also specifically studied the historical rebellion situation in Southeast Asia, and was surprised to find that it was not that they did not work hard, but that the rebels had evolved.
It's not the same as in the past, as long as the city is breached, they will start looting, and when the looting is over, they will disperse, and continue to attack new cities after the loot is exhausted.
It's different now. Although the mob is still the vast majority, a small number of them are already organized.
They know how to take advantage of the terrain and know how to lure the enemy deep. Basically, as long as the British army chases the enemy into the jungle area, they will be beaten all over the ground in the end.
If the pursuit is too hard, the entire army will be wiped out. The British army who is not familiar with this combat mode will naturally be recruited.
So why did the combat effectiveness of these rebels soar in a short period of time?
Apart from the support of external forces, is there any other possibility?
Then Mr. Churchill directly targeted the Japanese without any evidence. This is the conclusion he drew from his direct reasoning, and it has also been recognized by the local colonial government.
You don't need to look at anything else, just investigate the composition of the rebel army. This is very simple. The British have been operating in the local area for so long, and there are a lot of locals who are willing to cooperate with them.
Preliminary investigations found that there were no whites in the leadership of the rebel army, so it must not have been done by European and American countries.
Besides, rebellions broke out in the colonies of France and Bulgaria. It is impossible for them to join forces with themselves. Apart from them, which other country in Europe and the United States has the courage to challenge the British Empire?
After excluding European and American countries, Mr. Churchill turned his attention to other parts of the world, and there were not many independent countries.
First of all, it is impossible for the Republic of China, where the warlords fought, to join forces, and they do not have the strength to do such a big thing in Southeast Asia.
Secondly, Thailand was also ruled out because it also lacked the strength.
In the end, only Japan is left. They have strength, motives, and criminal records. If they are not them, they must be them!
Anyway, even if the Japanese were mixed into the rebel army, they would not be able to tell them apart unless they looked carefully. What Mr. Churchill is doing now can be said to be to force the local Japanese expats back.
As long as Japanese expatriates join in, he can tell the country that the Japanese government sent troops to mix with the rebels and disrupt Southeast Asia!
Then it is reasonable for him not to be able to quell the rebellion in a short period of time. After all, Japan is also a world power, and its strength cannot be won by a few colonial troops.
As for the consequences of doing so?
What does it matter to him?
The big deal is that the British Empire beat up the Japanese, or launched a round of sanctions. Aren't these all small problems?
Compared with history, it is really not worth mentioning that it pushed the British Empire into a world war ahead of schedule!
In short, the Tokyo government was furious. If they hadn't considered the strength gap between the two sides, they would have gone to war long ago.
Now there have been massive anti-British demonstrations in Japan, the British embassy in Tokyo has been blocked, and British diplomats are afraid to go out.
London
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin was also in a very bad mood. He finally understood Churchill's cheating nature, and he could cause trouble wherever he went.
He bet that if he ordered Churchill to be recalled now, then Churchill would immediately throw away the mess in his hands, happily return to London, and then push all these responsibilities out.
In any case, although Churchill's approach this time was a bit rough and created more wrongful and false cases, the members of the Japanese intelligence organization arrested were also real.
Thousands of spy statements were recorded, including commercial spies, government spies, and military spies, and there were even more weapons and ammunition inspected.
Well, Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin still doesn't know that ninety-nine percent of these evidences are fabricated. Otherwise, no matter how efficient it is, it would be impossible to achieve such amazing results?
Especially after inspecting more than 100,000 rifles and thousands of tons of weapons and ammunition, when did the Japanese government become so proud?
This look is deceptive data, but the British cabinet just didn't find the problem, just refer to the supplies they provided to support Nicholas Jr.
That year, they didn't help them with hundreds of thousands of rifles, and didn't give them hundreds of thousands of tons of ammunition? Compared with this, the performance of the Japanese can be regarded as petty!
Of course, judging from the mountains of guns and ammunition photos, there is such evidence, even if they turn against the Japanese government, they are justified.
In this world, the reasonable British Empire is invincible, and they will not fear any enemy!
Tough, we must take tough measures against the Japanese government!
This is also because the pixels of this era are low, and nothing can be seen in long-distance photos. If you take a closer look, it is estimated that everyone will feel very familiar, and then ask a question, why are these weapons and ammunition produced in the UK?
However, these problems will not be a problem soon. All these weapons and ammunition will be consumed in the counter-insurgency war, and there will be no last bullet left. It doesn't matter whether they were captured from the Japanese.
In this regard, the colonial government officials have a lot of experience, this is their usual normal business, otherwise there is no benefit, who wants to leave the bustling British mainland and go to the colony to suffer?
With the aggrieved Japanese government on one side and the furious British government on the other, is it possible for the two sides to make concessions?
Obviously impossible!
As long as the Japanese government does not want to be punished by heaven, it must fight against the British; and the arrogant British government thinks that it has gained the truth, but the Japanese still refuse to admit it, and even want them to make concessions. Is it possible?
Even the Dutch dared to face the Japanese government forcefully. If Stanley Baldwin dared to admit defeat, where would the face of the British Empire go?
Britain and Japan suddenly confronted each other. Ferdinand had already prepared melon seeds, made tea, and was ready to watch a play.
If it wasn't for the fear of accidents, he would have wanted to provoke the two sides to fight again.
If Britain and Japan fought a war, Ferdinand had no doubt that the British would win the final victory. However, as a price, the position of the British world hegemony will also be shaky.
At this time, the situation in Southeast Asia changed again. Mr. Churchill's goal was achieved, and he successfully pulled the Japanese into the water.
It's just that for this big drama, he, the director, just finished filming the beginning, and then the investors quit, and the plot began to get out of control.
After the furious Japanese joined the rebellion, the flames of war began to spread outward again. There are many Japanese expatriates in Southeast Asia, and the quality of these people is not comparable to that of the natives.
Many of them are retired officers and soldiers with rich training experience. With the addition of these professionals, the combat effectiveness of the rebel army has reached a new level.
Now the Japanese government doesn't need to be wronged. The stimulated Japanese decided to show the British a little color.
Didn't they say they supported the rebellion in Southeast Asia? Then support them!
Of course, these were all done secretly by the Japanese military. The senior Japanese government is still rational, knowing the strength gap between the two sides, and dare not directly force it.
The Japanese army wanted to do something, it was too easy, they recruited a group of middle and second officers and soldiers in the army, asked them to retire directly, and went to Southeast Asia in their own name.
Mr. Churchill, just felt that he was having fun and shouldn't force the Japanese expats back. The ten Indian divisions he requested were already in place, and it was time to counter the rebellion.
Unfortunately, the result is that he still feels that the troops are insufficient, and the newly formed Indian Colonial Division can't beat the rebels!
That's right, when fighting head-on, he was directly defeated!
Of course, this is only Mr. Churchill's opinion. These British officers don't think that their combat effectiveness is poor and they cannot defeat these rebels.
In their view, if it weren't for the large number of rebels and Mr. Churchill's great strategy, they would not have lost!
Why divide the troops? Is it not good to recover one place after another?
Launching counterattacks from all directions at the same time, the prestige is prestige, and the political propaganda is also in place, but the problem is that the strength of the troops has also been diluted?
Do we need to stay behind the recovered lost ground?
Is there even a need to ask?
The cowhide has already been blown out. If it is lost again, it may not matter militarily, but what about politics?
Since a politician has served as the commander, for the sake of political correctness, it is necessary to fully defend and consolidate the fruits of victory!
The Japanese didn't exert their strength, and Mr. Churchill couldn't stand it. But it doesn't matter, he can call someone!
Now that the London government believes that the Japanese government is supporting the rebellion, it is of course impossible to refuse Mr. Churchill's request for help.
Don't look at Churchill's military ability is not good, but his talent for political struggle is perfect!
Take his recorded passionate speech and find someone to send it to Congress. Successfully aroused everyone's emotions and persuaded members of Congress to agree to increase troops, and it was not an increase of 10,000 to 20,000 troops, but a one-time increase of 200,000 troops!
It really doesn't work if there are fewer people. Didn't the Netherlands next door keep suppressing the rebels after mobilizing 200,000 troops to counter the rebellion?
The British Empire can also learn from their successful experience!
In addition to these main forces, colonial troops are also indispensable. Ten more Indian colonial divisions, one Canadian division, and the three North American countries have also assembled a reinforced division.
Learning from a pitfall and gaining wisdom, Mr. Churchill summed up the reason for his failure, that is, too few troops. So this time he desperately asked for reinforcements from the country and from the self-governing government of the Commonwealth of Great Britain.
If all the reinforcements arrive, Mr. Churchill will end up with 20 Indian divisions, one North American reinforced division, one Canadian division, one New Zealand division, two Australian divisions, thirteen main divisions of the British Army and his own expansion division. Fifteen Southeast Asian colonial divisions.
In the end, there were fifty-three divisions in total, and there were even three tank divisions among the domestic reinforcements this time. I don’t know if Mr. Churchill knew that the tanks equipped by the British army are not yet capable of jungle warfare!
In any case, there are a total of fifty-three divisions, with a total strength of nearly 800,000 troops. This is obviously not for suppressing the colonial rebellion!
In order to persuade Congress to increase troops as much as possible, of course he has to exaggerate appropriately, for example: fabricating rumors that the Japanese government may attack Southeast Asia to put pressure on Congress and public opinion.
Another example: If the Anglo-Japanese War broke out suddenly, how should the British government respond?
In short, under his flickering and public opinion building, he successfully attracted the attention of the Congress. In order to prevent the Japanese sneak attack in advance, he first increased his troops in Southeast Asia.
As long as the reinforcements come, there is no need to ask the country for instructions on how to use them in the end. As the supreme commander of the local area, Mr. Churchill of course has full powers to command, and counter-insurgency is naturally indispensable!
As for whether war will break out with the Japanese, Mr. Churchill is not worried at all. Even if there is a fight, won't there be a Royal Navy? Can the enemy swim over?
