After listening to Zhong Yi¡¯s explanation, the entire conference room instantly became silent.
After all, except for Zhong Yi, no one here is a time traveler, so they lack the most basic imagination for the severe situation described by Zhong Yi.
In the eyes of these senior generals, after all, the United States is a world power, and Britain is a superpower with unparalleled military strength. How can their military be as unbearable as Zhong Yi said? impossible.
After more than ten seconds of silence, Chen Shi pretended to understand and said: "I understand Zi Ren's mood. He is just worried about the only remaining life channel of the Burma Highway. But having said that, if the Japanese army can I don¡¯t believe that such a powerful combat power can sweep through Southeast Asia in such a short period of time and defeat the US Army stationed in the Philippines and the British Army stationed in Malaysia, Singapore and Borneo.¡±
"Yes, I don't really believe it either." He Yingpei shook his head and said, "This is simply impossible."
"It's impossible?" Zhong Yi asked, "General He, how long did the British troops in the Shanghai Public Settlement resist? Eight hours? It seems like less than four hours?"
Just two days ago, the day after the Japanese Navy's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese Thirteenth Army and the Twenty-first Army launched attacks on Shanghai and Hong Kong at the same time. The British troops in the Shanghai Public Concession only resisted the attack. At four hours, he immediately announced his surrender and threw all the shame into his grandma's house.
"This cannot be compared." He Yingpei said with some embarrassment, "Shanghai has long become an isolated island, and the number of British troops in the public concession is also small, so the defeat is completely reasonable."
"It's not surprising that the battle was defeated. What's strange is that it only lasted four hours!" Zhong Yiran said, "And as far as I know, the Japanese army used to attack the public concession only had half an infantry brigade with more than 500 people stationed there. The British army in the public concession has at least one group of more than a thousand people, and if the armed merchant group is included, the number will be more than 5,000 people! However, what is the result? "
"With just one charge, a whole regiment of British troops were defeated by the Japanese army!"
"This" He Yingpei was speechless. He really couldn't find any words to beautify the British army's performance.
Chen Shi still said: "This is just a small-scale battle. It is just a special case and cannot explain the problem."
"Yes, Director Chen is right. This is just a small-scale battle. It is a special case and cannot explain the problem." Zhong Yi smiled slightly and said, "Then the Japanese-British battle in Hong Kong can always explain some problems, right?"
"Of course." Chen Shi said, "The Japanese army used a division to attack Hong Kong, and there were more than 10,000 British troops stationed in Hong Kong. This was already a large-scale offensive. If the Japanese army wanted to It is simply impossible to replicate the miracle of the Battle of Shanghai in the Battle of Hong Kong."
Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "I don't think so."
"Oh?" Chen Shi said, "So Ziren thinks it will take several months for the Japanese army to capture Hong Kong?"
"How many months?" Zhong Yi said with a hint of ridicule, "It doesn't take a few months, it will only take three days at most. If nothing happens, the Japanese army should be able to capture Hong Kong today."
"What are you talking about? The Japanese army can capture Hong Kong today?" Chen Shi was stunned when he heard this.
A few seconds later, Chen Shi suddenly burst into laughter, followed immediately by He Yingpei and others.
Looking at that, it felt like they had heard the funniest joke in the world, but then again, they really felt that Zhong Yi was telling a joke.
With more than 10,000 British troops defending the fortified city, how is it possible for a Japanese division to capture Hong Kong within three days?
Britain is the only superpower, and the British Army is a long-established and powerful force. Whether the Japanese army can win is a matter of course. It is nonsense to capture Hong Kong within three days.
Zhong Yi didn¡¯t say much.
The reason why Zhong Yi came to this conclusion is basically based on sufficient facts.
In another time and space, the British troops in Hong Kong persisted for almost half a month.
But in this time and space, the British army in Hong Kong will never be able to hold on for such a long time. The reason is very simple, because the Japanese army is more prepared and the air force is stronger!
In another time and space, the Japanese army received very little air support in the Southeast Asian battlefield.
But in this time and space, the Japanese Air Force, which has become a separate service, already has more than 10 aviation divisions, and can already provide sufficient air support to the Japanese Army and Japanese Navy!
Therefore, facing the three-dimensional attack of the Japanese army, navy and air force, Hong Kong'sIt is absolutely impossible for the army to persist for half a month like in another time and space! This time, I¡¯ll stick to it for three days at most!
After all, the British army in Hong Kong is just a servant army!
Most of the soldiers in these servant armies come from Canada, Australia, India or Egypt. The number of British soldiers who actually come from the UK is very small!
Chen Shi laughed for a long time and then said: "Everyone can understand Ziren's mood. In fact, you and I don't have such thoughts in our hearts? After all, our national army has been fighting the Japanese army on the Chinese battlefield for three years. If the Japanese army can Defeating the British army with overwhelming force, doesn't it prove that the combat effectiveness of our national army is actually stronger than that of the British army? This subjective wish is good, but it is just a subjective wish, not a fact"
Before he finished speaking, an aide-de-camp suddenly came in and handed a telegram to Principal Chang.
Principal Chang had a smile on his lips, but after reading the telegram, the smile immediately solidified.
Soon, more than a dozen senior generals in the conference room also noticed that Principal Chang had a different expression, and they all stopped talking.
Bai Chongbei seemed to realize something and asked: "Principal, whose telegram is this? What does it say?"
Principal Chang took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone: "The British Governor in Hong Kong, Peter Yeung, has just announced his unconditional surrender to the Japanese army. Hong Kong has fallen!"
"Huh?" Chen Shi was stunned for a moment.
He Yingpei and other senior generals were also confused.
"How is it possible?" Chen Shi said almost in a dream, "The British army is so vulnerable?"
"Yes, could this be a mistake?" He Yingpei said, "This is the British army?"
"How powerful do you think the British army can be?" Zhong Yi said suddenly, "Don't forget that the British army in the Southeast Asian battlefield is not actually the real British army, but just a servant army recruited by the British government from various colonies. How much fighting spirit can a group of servants with little sense of honor have?"
"This" Chen Shi was speechless.
He Yingpei was also speechless. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
