Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

The news that the Jin-Sui Military Sub-district was going to launch a large-scale counter-offensive could not be kept completely hidden, and the headquarters and the mountain city authorities also learned of it.

Due to communication difficulties, the headquarters and the mountain town were unaware of the scale of the counterattack and were unable to provide sufficient assistance.

In addition, the Japanese launched several major battles in succession, causing heavy losses to the headquarters and the mountain city. The expeditionary force also suffered repeated defeats. Under these circumstances, the counter-offensive by the Jin-Sui Military Sub-district was even less favored.

Not to mention the Third Battle of Midway, where the Allies and the Japanese were engaged in fierce fighting, and the prelude had already begun. The Allies lost one aircraft carrier, one battleship, three destroyers, and two cruisers.

In contrast, the Japanese suffered far fewer losses, losing only one battleship, one cruiser, and one destroyer in total.

The situation in the Pacific theater has changed dramatically from the original history. After acquiring some of Lin Zhenhua's technology, the Japanese have greatly improved the performance of their fighter jets and the production of their warships, which has indirectly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the Japanese navy.

Compared to the other timeline, the number of Japanese naval vessels nearly doubled, putting immense pressure on the Allied navies, leading to a fierce war of attrition between the two sides in the Pacific theater.

The United States has increased its production capacity to 90%, and if the situation still cannot be resolved, it is estimated that it will really have to operate at full capacity.

The clever Japanese adopted a strategy of exhausting resources, drawing large numbers of able-bodied men from the colonies, even sending thirteen- or fourteen-year-old child soldiers to the battlefield. For them, the more able-bodied men the colonies lost, the better.

The news of the major counter-offensive in Northwest Shanxi even reached the ears of the Allied forces. The Allies even planned to send representatives to provide the Northwest Shanxi Military Sub-district with some weapons and ammunition, hoping that Lin Zhenhua and his men could hold off more Japanese troops and relieve pressure on the Pacific theater.

"College students, this is a telegram just sent from Chongqing. The United States is willing to provide us with 1 million cans of beef, 1 million servings of compressed biscuits, 300 81mm mortars, 10,000 shells, and 10 million bullets."

"This is definitely a generous gesture. It seems the situation in the Pacific theater is more serious than we imagined, otherwise the Allies wouldn't have given us so much aid."

Chu Yunfei told everyone about the call he had just received from his old superior, and everyone's faces were filled with shock.

"Damn, the Allies are too generous! So many supplies, that's no small amount of money, and they just give it to us like that, all we have to do is send transport planes to pick it up."

"It seems the college students' analysis of the situation was very accurate. The Allies are really backed into a corner. As long as we fight this battle well, we can get more aid."

"Perhaps we can acquire not only various supplies, but also a large number of machine tools and other equipment. Although we are capable of manufacturing machine tools with our current technology, our production capacity is still not satisfactory."

"We can't miss such a good opportunity. It would be a fool not to take advantage of it."

"College students, don't hesitate any longer, name your price! If you don't ask for more now, you might not have another chance!"
