Jagged Germany

"General Umezu Yoshijiro? He is not a suitable candidate. General Umezu Yoshijiro has just been appointed as the commander of the Kwantung Army, and at the same time, his rank is only lieutenant general. The Southern Army's operations in Nanyang are related to the fate of the empire. A more suitable candidate will do!" Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen retorted.

  Although General Nishio Hiszo, who was previously recommended by General Prince Xianyuan Gongzairen, did not do very well in the position of commander of the Southern Army. However, besides General Nishio Hiszo, he also had other candidates.

   "General Ueda Nobuken, the former commander of the Kwantung Army, is more suitable to be the commander of the Southern Army. I believe that after Ueda-kun takes office, he will be able to open up the situation!" said Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen.

  Hata Toshi's six generals couldn't help but frowned. Neither Umezu Yoshijiro nor Ueda Nobuken was obviously not the object of his approval.

"His Royal Highness, Yamada-kun. The Germans in Nanyang are very powerful. If we want to defeat the Germans, we must send a general with outstanding abilities. Personally, I think General Juichi Terauchi is the most suitable person!" Hata Toshi six generals said.

  Prince Hanin Gongzaijin and General Yamada Otozo were both silent. Then, they all chose to compromise. Because the six generals of Toshiro Hata, as the minister of the army, undoubtedly occupy the leading position in the army. The chief of staff and the director of education in the two of them must also give face to the six generals of Jun Hata.

  Of course, if General Toshiichi Terauchi failed to bring victory to the island army in his position as the commander of the Southern Army, they could justifiably request the removal of General Toshida Terauchi.

   "General Terauchi Shouichi is a good candidate, he should be qualified for the position of commander of the Southern Army." General Yamada Otosan said.

   "I also agree. General Terauchi Shouichi performed very well on the China battlefield. Although the Germans are very strong, General Terauchi Shouichi will definitely win the Nanyang battlefield!" Said Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen.

   "Very well, since His Royal Highness and Yamada-kun have no objections, then it is decided that General Terauchi Shouichi will replace General Nishio Hiszo as the commander of the Southern Army." General Hata Toshi said with a smile on his face.

   "Then, what will General Nishio Hiszo do after he returns to China?" General Hata Jun-six then asked.

  After some discussions among the three of them, it was decided that General Nishio Hiszo would go to a idle job to provide for the elderly. For the defeated generals, it is already very good to have such a result. After all, the generals of the island country army, once defeated, would often ask for seppuku. It is already a very good result to be able to save their lives.

"His Royal Highness, the Southern Army has experienced several disastrous defeats. So far, the remaining total strength of the Southern Army is only more than 500,000. Such a small force is obviously not enough to fight against the brutal Germans. Therefore, I hope that the General Staff Headquarters can reinforce the Southern Army in the shortest possible time!" said the Sixth General Hata Toshi.

  Terauchi Toshiichi is the commander of the Southern Army recommended by him to take office, so he will naturally provide support to him as much as possible. Otherwise, if General Toshiichi Terauchi still failed to bring victory in his position as the commander of the Southern Army, but instead failed, then he, the Minister of the Army, would probably be ashamed.

"The Lanyin Front Army under the Southern Army, and the 18th Front Army, which has just been nearly wiped out, have retreated to the Philippine Islands for rest. The country is sending a large number of troops to the Philippine Islands. If necessary, the 14th Front Army can be dispatched to the Philippine Islands. The Front Army and the Seventh Front Army also retreated to the Philippine Islands for rest!" said Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen.

General Hata Toshi shook his head: "The newly mobilized troops have limited combat effectiveness. Even if they are supplemented, it will be difficult to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time. Besides, we can't stop attacking the German army before these front forces recover their combat effectiveness. Attack? The current situation is very unfavorable to us. The longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to us!"

  Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen couldn't help but frowned. He understood the meaning of the six Generals Hata Toshi. He just wanted to transfer other troops to join the Southern Army, so that the strength of the Southern Army could be quickly restored. Look, in order to support General Kotobuki in the temple, the six generals Hata Toshi did not hesitate to pay. However, Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace can also understand. After all, once General Kotobuki in the temple loses, the consequences will be disastrous.

   "Your Excellency Lu Xiang, what do you mean?" Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace asked.

"His Royal Highness, directly transfer a few front troops or troops, and join the Southern Army! The Germans are in Southeast Asia and Australia, but there are still hundreds of thousands of them. Without enough troops, it is difficult for us to defeat them. Only by defeating the Germans, Only then can we occupy Nanyang and Australia. Only in this way can we use the resources of Nanyang and Australia to become even stronger!" said General Jun Hata.

   "Okay, Your Excellency Lu Xiang!" Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace nodded, not entangled in this issue. As a general of the royal family, he certainly hoped that the Japanese Army would win.

   General Yamada Otosan did not speak on this issue. After all, although the director of education is one of the three officers, his authority is not as good as that of the secretary of the army and the chief of the army general staff.

   In the next two days, after discussing with the six Generals Hata Jun and Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen, they confirmed the plan to reinforce the southern army.

  First, mobilize a large number of newly mobilized troops to the Philippine Islands to restore the strength of the Lanyin Front Army, the 18th Front Army, the 14th Front Army and the 7th Front Army.

  In addition, from the island country, the 5th Front Army, the 8th Front Army, the 10th Front Army, the 4th Army, the 31st Army and the 34th Army were transferred. The three front armies plus three armies have 20 divisions and 24 independent mixed brigades under their jurisdiction, with a total strength of more than 700,000 troops. If these troops are added to the troops originally under the Southern Army, once those damaged troops regain their strength, the total strength of the Southern Army of the Island Army will exceed two million.

  In addition, in order to further provide support to the Southern Army, the six generals of Toshiro Hata also decided to strengthen a large number of field artillery regiments and heavy artillery regiments to the Southern Army, further enhancing the strength of the Southern Army.

   It can be said that in order to allow General Toshida Terauchi to lead the Southern Army to open up the situation on the Nanyang battlefield, the six generals Hata Toshi undoubtedly spent a lot of money. If under such circumstances, the Southern Army still fails to win, then it is time for them all to commit seppuku.
