Chapter 696: News from Ningji Okamura
After Yamashita Tomoyuki's strategy received full support from Emperor Jindong, the entire Fuso Empire seemed to be injected with new vitality, and various plans began to advance rapidly and in an orderly manner. Although the remaining strength of the Asian Sea Fleet was not as glorious as before, it still fought hard on the sea, using its familiarity with the sea and clever tactics to continuously delay the progress of the Chinese Fleet and buy precious time for the defense of the homeland.
At the same time, the scene in Nagasaki was particularly solemn. The rhythm of life of millions of people was completely disrupted, and they had to face a cruel reality - emergency migration. The air was filled with reluctance and helplessness. Every household was busy packing their bags. The elderly, children, young men and women, everyone, with uncertainty about the future and deep attachment to their hometown, embarked on a difficult journey to Fukuoka.
Opposition voices were heard in the streets. People were reluctant to leave the land where they had lived for generations, and were reluctant to give up their familiar lifestyle and environment, but the shadow of war was imminent, and they had no choice but to drag their families and embark on an unknown journey. Yamashita Tomoyuki was well aware of the waves this decision would cause among the people, but he was even more aware that only by completing the migration of the people and the deployment of the army as soon as possible could Fuso have a chance of survival.
Therefore, he kept sending messengers to various places to personally urge his men to speed up the progress. Within the Kyushu Corps, military orders were as firm as a mountain, and the soldiers worked day and night to ensure that every line of defense was solid and reliable, and every fortification could play the greatest role. At the same time, they were also responsible for assisting the migration of the people to ensure that everyone could arrive in Fukuoka safely.
In the tense and orderly atmosphere, time seemed to be accelerated. The ports, docks, and roads in the Nagasaki area were full of busy figures. People walked, drove, or took boats, slowly moving towards Fukuoka. Although their hearts were filled with sadness, their eyes also revealed their desire for survival and their expectations for the future.
Yamashita Tomoyuki stood on a high place, looking at these scenes, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that his decision had brought great pain and inconvenience to the people, but he believed that it was for the future of Fuso and for more lives to be saved. He prayed silently, hoping that all these efforts could be transformed into a solid shield against foreign enemies and protect every inch of tranquility and peace on this land.
The sea breeze was blowing gently, the waves were lapping gently, and the flagship Leader was sailing steadily on the blue sea. However, the conference room in the cabin was filled with a solemn and tense atmosphere. Su Zhengyang stood in front of the conference table, his eyes were sharp, and he held tightly in his hand an intelligence document that had just been sent from an encrypted channel. This document, like a heavy bomb, was about to explode in the conference room.
"Everyone, I just received a very important intelligence." Su Zhengyang's voice was deep and powerful, instantly attracting everyone's attention. He gently placed the intelligence document on the table. The word "top secret" printed on the document was particularly eye-catching.
Gudean, Stein, Zhou Weiguo, Liu Kangding and others quickly gathered around, their expressions changed from puzzlement to seriousness, and everyone realized that this intelligence was unusual. They took the document one by one and read it carefully, their eyes quickly scanning between the lines, looking for key information points.
As they read deeper, their faces became more solemn. It turned out that the intelligence revealed an astonishing fact: Ningci Okamura, who was forced to act as a secret agent to assist Su Zhengyang in rescuing the people in the concentration camp, not only returned to his homeland safely, but also became a core general of the Kyushu Army and mastered important decision-making power. This so-called "Japanese traitor" secretly colluded with the CIA's intelligence liaison office in Nagasaki, Kyushu, and leaked all the latest movements of the Kyushu Army.
Gudean, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, stood in front of a large strategic map in the conference room. His eyes were as sharp as torches, penetrating the mountains and rivers on the map and reaching the core of the strategy. He gently stroked the landmarks representing Nagasaki and Fukuoka, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he had foreseen the upcoming changes in the war situation. "What a great Yamashita Tomoyuki," he said slowly, his voice steady and powerful, "Nagasaki is located in the western plains of Kyushu Island. The terrain is open, and it is the stage for our armored forces to show their prowess. There, they will be like an unstoppable steel torrent, showing our military might and strength with a crushing force."
Upon hearing this, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Stein nodded in agreement. He walked to Gudean's side, his eyes also focused on the map. "From Fuso's perspective, abandoning Nagasaki and concentrating forces on Fukuoka is indeed a bold and wise decision." Stein's tone revealed his recognition of Yamashita Tomoyuki's strategic vision. "Yamashita Tomoyuki, this Fuso general known as the Tiger of South Asia, is indeed worthy of his reputation. He can find a ray of hope in a desperate situation. His military talent should not be underestimated."
However, at this moment, Su Zhengyang's voice broke the silence of the conference room. There was a hint of chill in his sneer, as if he had seen a different picture of the battle. "Let the North Sea Fleet speed up," he ordered decisively, "We must seize Nagasaki Port as soon as possible and annihilate Fuso's naval forces there. Only in this way can we ensure that our troops can land smoothly and quickly gain a foothold in the Nagasaki area."
Su Zhengyang's eyes became extremely deep, as if he had foreseen the scene of victory. "Yamashita Fengwen thought that he could stop our troops with the help of complex terrain? He was wrong!" Su Zhengyang's voice was full of confidence and determination, "We not only have powerful armored forces, but also elite air forces. I believe that our air force will use the force of thunder and lightning to teach those enemies hiding in the mountains a lesson they will never forget. Let them know that in the face of absolute power, any terrain advantage is useless!"
As Su Zhengyang finished speaking, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became heated. Every general seemed to be ignited with fighting spirit, their eyes were bright, and they were full of confidence as they prepared to face the upcoming decisive battle.
In the endless mountains of Fukuoka, Yamashita Tomoyuki personally supervised the battle and commanded the Kyushu Army to build an airtight air defense system. Huge anti-aircraft artillery positions were scattered in various strategic locations, and the radar scanning network covered the entire sky, like an invisible giant hand, tightly guarding the air gateway of this land.
However, under these layers of defense, Yamashita Fengwen never expected that Su Zhengyang had already made sufficient preparations for this highly anticipated war of annihilation. In a secret base far away from the battlefield, rows of bombers loaded with destructive weapons were ready to go. In their cargo holds, they hid the "big killer" that was enough to scare any enemy - the mother of bombs, the father of bombs, and even the more mysterious ancestor of bombs.
Su Zhengyang stood in the command room, staring at the image of the Fukuoka area on the screen, his eyes flashing with a cold light. He had long expected that Yamashita Tomoyuki would strengthen the air defense force, but this did not shake him at all. On the contrary, he smiled faintly, because he knew that when those weapons that were enough to shake the world fell from the sky, every Fuso would feel a tremor from the depths of their souls.
