Anti-Japanese War: The whole world is a base vehicle

The Japanese Navy Combined Fleet launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States, and the Pacific War broke out.

The news was like a bombshell, causing a huge storm around the world.

For Lu Yuhua, who was far away on the Asian battlefield and in the midst of the anti-Japanese war, this news also made him feel uneasy for a long time.

At this time, he was standing in front of the command center's combat map, tapping his fingers lightly on the Siam area on the map.

"The Japanese army has declared war on the American army, which means that the entire war situation will undergo tremendous changes." He whispered to himself, his voice was soft but full of power.

He knew very well that the Japanese army's actions in the Pacific battlefield would inevitably involve the forces of all parties.

And for the Chinese Expeditionary Force, this could be a huge crisis.

The British army's defense in Southeast Asia was already weak, and its attitude towards supporting the Chinese Expeditionary Force had always been ambiguous.

In Lu Yuhua's opinion, the expeditionary force is very likely to be harmed by the British army next.

"We must not let this happen. We must take the initiative." He made up his mind secretly.

After careful consideration, Lu Yuhua decided to increase the intensity of the attack, and the primary target was Siam.

Siam has an extremely important geographical location. It is located in the heart of Southeast Asia and is a transportation hub connecting many countries.

Taking over Siam would not only cut off some of the Japanese supply lines in Southeast Asia, but also create favorable conditions for subsequent rescue expeditionary forces.

"Pass on my order, all troops must prepare for battle and launch an attack on Siam in three days." Lu Yuhua's order was quickly passed down, and the entire army immediately entered a tense state of pre-war preparation.

The soldiers wiped their weapons, checked their equipment, and had determined looks on their faces.

Three days later, the sky was slightly bright, but the morning light had not yet completely dispelled the gloom of the night.

Lu Yuhua stood on the battlefield, looking at the troops in front of him who were ready for battle, his heart filled with emotion.

"Brothers, we are about to embark on a tough battle, but this is for the nation and for the thousands of compatriots behind us. We must move forward bravely and take down Siam!" His voice spread throughout the position through the loudspeaker, arousing the soldiers' high morale.

With the order, the attack began.

Shells rained down on Siam’s border defenses, with deafening explosions and flames shooting into the sky.

The Free Army troops rushed towards the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains, and their shouts of killing echoed in the valley.

Although the Siamese army put up a tenacious resistance, they gradually became unable to withstand the fierce attack of the Free Army.

At the critical moment of the battle, the officers of the Free Army took the lead and personally led the commandos to rush to the enemy's core position.

The officers held submachine guns and fired while shouting loudly to boost the morale of the soldiers.

After a fierce battle, the Free Army finally broke through Siam's border defense line and successfully occupied the frontier position.

However, Lu Yuhua did not relax his vigilance because he knew that this was just the beginning of a long battle.

In the next few days, the two sides engaged in a fierce tug-of-war.

The Siamese army continuously organized counterattacks to try to regain lost positions, but Lu Yuhua, with his excellent command and the tenacious resistance of his soldiers, repelled the enemy's attacks time and time again.

During a battle, Lu Yuhua discovered a weakness of the Siamese army.

Their supply lines were too long and their defenses were relatively weak.

So he decided to send an elite force to go around the enemy's rear and cut off their supply lines.

This elite force set out quietly under the cover of night.

They crossed the dense jungle, overcame numerous difficulties, and finally succeeded in reaching the enemy's supply line.

At a command, the soldiers rushed towards the enemy's supply troops like a ragtag force, catching them off guard in an instant.

With their supply lines cut off, the morale of the Siamese army suffered a severe blow.

Their supplies were running low and their fighting capacity was declining. Lu Yuhua seized this opportunity and launched a full-scale offensive.

During the fierce battle, the Free Army encountered a thorny problem as the conflict between the Siamese army and the Free Army had entered a white-hot stage.

The Siamese army set up a solid defense line on a high ground, using the unique geographical advantage of the high ground to build a seemingly insurmountable line of defense.

On the high ground, the soldiers of the Siamese army were ready for battle.

There was tension and vigilance in their eyes as they kept a close eye on the movements of the Freedom Army at the foot of the mountain.

The biting cold wind howled across the high ground, blowing their slightly worn military uniforms.

The weapons were polished to a shine in the hands of the soldiers, and the metal parts of the guns flashed a cold light under the gray sky.

"Listen to me, if the Free Army dares to charge up, don't let any of them go!" The commander of the Siamese army stood on a high place and shouted at the top of his voice.

His voice was a little hoarse in the wind, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.

The soldiers nodded one after another, their expressions becoming more determined.

On the other hand, the morale of the Free Army was high, and despite facing the obstruction of the high ground, they had no intention of retreating.

The soldiers were dressed in simple but neat military uniforms, their eyes burning with desire for honor.

Carrying their bags and holding their weapons, they advanced steadily towards the heights under the leadership of their commander.

"Comrades, we fight for freedom. This high ground cannot stop us from advancing!" The commander of the Free Army rode a vigorous black horse, shuttled through the ranks, and encouraged the morale of the soldiers. The soldiers responded like thunder, "For freedom! For freedom!"

As the Free Army approached the heights, the Siamese army opened fire decisively.

The dense gunfire instantly broke the original silence, and bullets poured down on the Free Army like raindrops.

The Free Army fighters looked for cover one after another. For a moment, dust was flying, and the sounds of shouting, killing, and gunfire were intertwined.

"Hide! Hide quickly!" the commander of the Free Army shouted loudly, pulling out the pistol from his waist and shooting at the enemy on the high ground.

The Free Army fighters took advantage of the terrain, sometimes crawling forward and sometimes counterattacking with the cover of boulders.

However, the terrain of the highlands was too steep and the Siamese army occupied an advantageous position, so the Free Army's attack was greatly hindered.

Many soldiers fell in the hail of bullets, and their blood dyed the land red.

"We can't go on like this. We have to find a way to break through their defense line." A deputy commander of the Freedom Army said anxiously.

The commander frowned, thought for a moment and then said, "We will send a small team to attack from the flank first to attract their firepower, while the main force will concentrate its firepower on the frontal attack. Remember, we must act quickly and not give them too much time to react."

So, according to the plan, a small group of Free Army soldiers quietly bypassed from the flank. They shuttled through the dense jungle, carefully avoiding the enemy's sight. The main force in front increased its firepower output, trying to suppress the Siamese army on the high ground.

The Siamese troops on the high ground soon discovered the Free Army's flanking movement.

"Oh no! They're trying to outflank us! Send some people to deal with the enemies on the flank!" The commander quickly gave the order.

For a moment, the firepower on the high ground was dispersed.

The main force of the Free Army took the opportunity to launch a fierce charge.

The soldiers shouted slogans and bravely advanced towards the heights, ignoring the enemy's hail of bullets.

"Charge! For freedom!" The voices of the Freedom Army fighters resounded through the sky.

Their figures were looming in the smoke, and like a steel torrent, they attacked the enemy's defense line.

In the fierce exchange of fire, the Free Army's flanking squad also engaged in fierce fighting with the Siamese army.

Although they were small in number, they successfully attracted part of the enemy's firepower with their tenacious fighting spirit and flexible tactics.

"Hold on! The main force will be here soon!" The captain of the flank squad shouted loudly while shooting.

The team members gritted their teeth and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.

On the front battlefield, the Free Army paid a heavy price for its charge. Many soldiers fell during the charge, but the soldiers behind them did not hesitate at all and continued to advance on the bodies of their comrades.

Finally, they broke through the Siamese army's first line of defense and successfully climbed the heights.

"Fight them!" Seeing the defense line was breached, the commander of the Siamese army, with red eyes, led the soldiers in close combat with the Free Army.

On the battlefield, the flashing of swords and the shouts of killing shook the sky. The faces of the soldiers were covered with blood and sweat. For their respective beliefs, they fought a life-and-death battle on this high ground.

The Free Army fighters gradually gained the upper hand with their tenacious will and outstanding fighting skills.

The Siamese army began to waver, and fear and despair were revealed in the soldiers' eyes.

"We can't lose! Keep fighting!" The commander of the Siamese army was still making his last struggle, but his voice already sounded a little weak.

The commander of the Free Army seized the opportunity and shouted loudly: "Comrades, victory is at hand, charge!" The soldiers were encouraged and their morale was boosted, and they launched a final charge towards the enemy.

Under the fierce attack of the Free Army, the Siamese army finally collapsed.

They dropped their weapons and fled.

The Free Army pursued the enemy and drove them out of the high ground.

After the battle, the battlefield was in ruins.

The bodies were lying all over the ground, and the smoke had not yet completely dissipated.

The Free Army fighters sat on the ground exhausted, their faces showing both the joy of victory and the sorrow of losing their comrades.

"We won, but we also paid a heavy price." The commander of the Free Army looked at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings.

The soldiers bowed their heads silently and mourned for their sacrificed comrades.

They knew that this victory was hard-won and was won with the lives and blood of countless comrades.

In the following days, the Free Army rested on the high ground and began to clean up the battlefield.

They buried the bodies of their comrades properly and erected tombstones for them.

Each tombstone represents a hero who fought for freedom, and their deeds will be remembered forever on this land.

As the battle continued to advance, the Free Army gradually approached Bangkok, the capital of Siam.

The Siamese government fell into extreme panic and kept asking the Japanese army for help.

At the Japanese Southern Army Headquarters, an urgent telegram broke the apparent calm of the headquarters.

Terauchi Hisaichi picked up the telegram and just glanced at it. An expression of disbelief instantly appeared on his originally calm face.

The telegram clearly stated: The Free Army began to attack Siam, and the Siamese army suffered successive defeats on the battlefield.

Siam has vital strategic significance to the Japanese army.

It was not only an important channel for the Japanese army to move south to Malaya, Singapore and other places, but also a key stronghold for the Japanese army to obtain rich local resources.

Siam's strategic materials such as rubber and tin were continuously shipped to Japan, providing power for the Japanese war machine.

At the same time, Siam was also an important ally of the Japanese army in Southeast Asia. A series of cooperation agreements were signed between the two countries, and Siam cooperated with the Japanese army's military operations to a certain extent.

"How could this happen? How could the Siamese army be so vulnerable!" Terauchi Hisaichi angrily slammed the telegram on the table. His voice echoed in the command center, making the surrounding staff shudder.

Terauchi Hisaichi knew very well that once Siam was lost, the Japanese strategic layout in Southeast Asia would face a huge crisis.

First, the Japanese army's supply lines will be cut off, and the troops fighting on the front line will be isolated and helpless.

Secondly, this will greatly boost the morale of the anti-fascist forces and make the Japanese rule in Southeast Asia shaky.

Moreover, the neighboring countries may have a new view of the Japanese army because of the fall of Siam, and may even side with the Allied forces, which will put the Japanese army into a more passive situation.

"Gather all staff immediately, I want to discuss countermeasures!" Terauchi Hisaichi gave the order.

Soon, a group of officers in military uniforms and with serious expressions gathered in the command center.

"Everyone, the situation in Siam has reached a critical juncture. We must take action, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous." Terauchi Hisaichi said straight to the point.

A staff officer stood up and said cautiously: "Commander, we are currently deployed in various battlefields, and our troops are already quite tight. If we want to support Siam, it is a problem where to draw troops from."

Terauchi Juichi frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Pull some troops from the 15th Army. They are closer to Siam and can reach the battlefield quickly. At the same time, order the 25th Army to be ready and provide support at any time."

Another staff officer expressed his concern: "But in this way, the 15th Army's defensive strength in the original defense zone will be weakened. What if the Allies take the opportunity to attack?"

"We can't care about so many things! The safety of Siam is related to the entire Southeast Asian war situation. If Siam is lost, we will lose our foothold in Southeast Asia." Terauchi Hisaichi said firmly.

After a heated discussion, the plan to support Siam was finally decided.

In addition to withdrawing troops, Terauchi Hisaichi also decided to send the Air Force to provide air support to Siam and cover for the ground forces.

At the same time, the navy was ordered to patrol the coast of Siam to prevent the Free Army from landing from the sea. (End of this chapter)
