Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army
Chapter 713: Battle with Australia (3)
Chief of Staff Hou Zhuangzhuang walked to the map and reported:
"Commander, the landing troops have taken control of an area of about 50 kilometers around Hedland, from Strala in the east to Kaindi in the south, and annihilated an Australian infantry battalion. This battalion was a garrison unit of the Australian 3rd Division, and the entire division had been annihilated in North Korea!
According to the reconnaissance of the aircraft, the entire west coast of Australia is sparsely populated, and the enemy forces within a radius of 1000 kilometers are basically very scattered, and there is no threat! "
Ding Shan pointed at the map and said,
"Starting tomorrow, we will follow the planned main force to move south along the railway line. The first target is the iron ore in the Hamersley area, and the second target is Perth! However, don't be in a hurry. Just advance 50 kilometers a day. Remember, we need to build an airport every 500 kilometers or so!"
Before Ding Shan came, Yin Xinjun had already laid out all his ideas: slowly eroding Australia and attracting US troops to land in Australia to fight. This is the best strategy!
Of course, if the United States really gave up Australia, it would occupy all of this place. With such a large piece of land, the agricultural area on the southern coast alone can easily feed hundreds of millions of people. Coupled with the world's largest iron ore reserves, with this rich land, Yin Xinjun's chances of winning against the United States will be even greater!
This is definitely a decisive battle of the century that cannot be rushed. According to Yin Xinjun's idea, it is divided into three stages. The first is to gain a foothold in Southeast Asia, the second is to occupy and operate Australia for a long time, and the third is to slowly consume the opponent's strength from the economic and military levels, thereby squeezing the United States' living space!
We are currently in the second stage!
Canberra,
Prime Minister's Office, Australia
The atmosphere was extremely solemn.
Prime Minister Menzies is holding an emergency meeting.
Foreign Minister Casey said angrily,
"Haizhou sent a note, indicating that the two sides have been in a state of war for a long time. They had already declared war on all Commonwealth countries half a year ago!"
Commander-in-Chief John McEwen added:
"After the fierce battle between Haizhou and the British fleet, they did issue a declaration of war, but nothing happened afterwards. I guess everyone has forgotten about it!"
Menzies asked,
"Kathy, what is the current attitude of the United States?"
"The issue of sending troops to Australia is still under discussion and voting in the Senate and the House of Representatives, but US Secretary of State Acheson said that even if the resolution to send troops is passed, it will take at least two months for them to raise personnel and supplies!"
McKelvin said,
"According to intelligence, Haizhou State has deployed two aircraft carrier battle groups, at least 500 aircraft, and 7.5 ground troops. Now the main force of the US military is in North Korea. They must mobilize troops from their homeland and Europe!"
This attack by Haizhou Kingdom made the Australians somewhat desperate. First of all, their only strong force was the army, but on the Korean battlefield, Australia had lost 60% of its army!
The navy and air force are too expensive, which is the weakness of the Australian military. They don't even have an aircraft carrier or a battleship! They only have more than 100 old aircraft. In terms of quantity and quality, they are at an absolute disadvantage!
Therefore, facing the offensive of Haizhou State, Mengxisi's meeting has been held for a whole day, but there is nothing he can do! He can only hope that the Americans will come to help them!
An officer came to the presidential conference room and handed a telegram to the commander-in-chief, McEwen.
After reading it, McKelvin's face turned pale. He held up the telegram and said,
"The war has expanded again. Just now, the Pers military airport was attacked again, and 27 planes were destroyed! We only have less than 5000 people resisting on the front line, and they continue to attack southward!"
Casey said worriedly,
"If the Americans don't come, Australia will be destroyed in less than a month!"
Menzies said hastily,
"Send another telegram to the US government, saying that the situation in Australia is extremely urgent and asks the US military to come to support us as soon as possible. In North Korea, we have spared no effort to help them!"
New Magnolia City,
In the aircraft workshop of the arsenal,
The huge space is filled with various advanced equipment and aircraft parts being assembled.
Haizhou President Yin Xinjun and Aviation Minister Kang Huaifu entered the workshop accompanied by everyone. Their eyes were instantly attracted by the bustling scene before them.
The two first came to a naval carrier-based Yue Fei fighter that was being assembled. The main frame of the fighter had been completed, and the workers were busy installing the wings and engines.
Yin Xinjun gently stroked the fuselage of the fighter, feeling the cold metal texture, and turned to ask Guan Zheng, the director of the New Mulan City Arsenal beside him: "How many aircraft can the factory produce every month?" Guan Zheng hurried forward and answered respectfully: "Mr. President, our arsenal has just started production, and it is expected to produce 150 aircraft per month! In the future, as the workers become more proficient in operation, the output should increase significantly!"
Yin Xinjun nodded slightly, a satisfied look on his face, and said: "The New Mulan City Arsenal mainly produces various types of aircraft, and in modern warfare, there is no chance of winning without air superiority. I hope you can strictly control the quality and continue to provide more aircraft to the front line!"
The New Mulan Arsenal is also the third arsenal started in Haizhou State. According to Yin Xinjun’s plan, the entire Haizhou State will successively build nine arsenals, and the latter ones will mainly focus on the production of aircraft!
The war with the Americans is imminent. This will be an unprecedented war, and Yin Xinjun hopes that the monthly production of aircraft can reach 1000!
Then, the two walked to an aircraft parts production line, where workers skillfully operated precision machine tools to process pieces of metal raw materials into parts of various shapes.
Kang Huaifu picked up a newly processed part, carefully examined its craftsmanship, and said to the workshop manager beside him: "The quality of these parts is directly related to the overall performance and safety of the aircraft. You must strictly control the quality during the production process, and there must be no carelessness in every link."
The person in charge of the workshop quickly said: "Don't worry, Minister, we have established a complete quality inspection system. Every component must go through multiple inspection processes to ensure that there is no problem.
Yin Xinjun said to Kang Huaifu,
"Lao Kang, the war is imminent. As long as our nine major arsenals are put into production, the number of aircraft should be able to keep up with consumption. I'm just worried that the pilots can't keep up. The aviation school has to speed up the training!"
Kang Huaifu Road,
"This year, our new Mulan City Aviation School and Yalujiang City Aviation School will begin recruiting students, so we will have four aviation schools. In addition, the domestic support is also very strong, so we will definitely have more and more pilots!"
