"Three dayster, Army Group E, Army Group F, and Army Group G of the Imperial Army attacked Sumatra, Java, and New Guinea respectively to destroy the ind army entrenched here. Then theyunched an attack on Borneo and the Philippine Inds. In one fell swoop, the southern army of the ind nation’s navy will be eliminated. The navy and air force will fully assist the imperial army’snding operations. Moreover, the navy should destroy the main force of the ind nation’s navy as quickly as possible, which is rted to the next battle.” Marshal Manstein said.


    "Yes, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff." Marshal Lundstedt, Marshal Bock, Marshal Keitel and Marshal Rolf Karls replied.


    The main force of the southern army of the ind country army is now assembled in Sumatra, Java and New Guinea. Among them, Sumatra and the Indochina Penins are only separated by the Strait of a. The army of the ind country has repeatedly attempted to cross the strait to attack the My Penins and the Lion City. Java Ind and New Guinea Ind are the main bases for the army of the ind country to march to Australia. In the past, the army of the ind country also attempted to cross the Timor Sea and the Arafura Sea andnd in Australia with the assistance of the ind navy.


    But unfortunately, none of the ind army''s offensives were sessful. They were all resisted by the German army, and the losses were not small.


    Now, with the German army gathering in Southeast Asia and Australia, the army of the ind country is urgently shrinking its troops and strengthening its defenses to resist the attack of the German army. As for the navy of the ind country, it quickly withdrew from this sea area and retreated to the waters east of the Philippine Inds. Obviously, the navy of the ind country knows that if they continue to stay in the South China Sea while the main force of the German navy is moving eastward, they will be courting death.


    After Marshal Manstein issued the order, all the armies of the empire,nd, sea and air began to hurry up and prepare. Three dayster, it was time for the Empire tounch a massive counter-offensive. In the past, the empire was on the defensive in Southeast Asia and Australia because of the serious shortage of troops. Now, the empire can finally mobilize arge number of troops tounch a counterattack. The good days of the inders are over.


    Indonesian archipgo, Java Ind, Batavia. This is the former capital of Dutch Indonesia and thergest city in Southeast Asia. After the ind country army upied the entire Indonesian archipgo, the headquarters of the ind country''s southern army also moved from Man to Batavia.


    Originally, the government of the ind country expected that the Southern Army would continue tounch an offensive and take down the entire Indochina Penins and Australia. In that case, the ind nation would be able to upy the entire Southeast Asia and Australia. They can plunder the resources in this area, so that the military strength of the ind country can also expand to the peak. But unfortunately, the many attacksunched after that failed to seed, and instead lost troops.


    This made the ind country have to draw reinforcements from the country to reinforce the Southern Army, and at the same time reced the Southern Army Commander again.


    General Toshiichi Terauchi took over as themander of the Southern Army one month before the defeat of the United States. After taking office, General Hisashi Terauchi was equally ambitious and wanted to organize the army tounch an offensive in order to achieve breakthroughs on the Indochina Penins and the Australian battlefield. However, when the Southern Army was not ready, a bad news came. The United States, which was extremely powerful in the eyes of the ind nation, copsed under the attack of Germany. This startled the inders. At the same time, General Shouda''s attack on Jinhua was hastily stopped. General Sugiyama Moto, Chief of Staff of the Japanese Army, even issued an order in person, asking the southern army to switch to a defensive state from now on. He also repeatedly asked General Kotobuki, if the German army took the initiative to attack, he must do his best to resist the German army''s attack.


    Terauchi Toshiichi was very aggrieved, and the attack n that he was going to continue waspletely aborted. At the same time, all the troops had to be ced on the defensive. But General Toshiichi Terauchi knew it was the right thing to do. After all, after the Germans have dealt with the United States, they will undoubtedly attack them next. Even, the main force of the German army will gather throughout Nanyang. This is a huge pressure on the southern army, and even the entire ind country.


    Although General Toshiichi Terauchi thinks that the army of the ind country is very powerful. The entire ind nation is also at its strongest stage ever. However, he didn''t think they had much chance of winning against Germany.


    In the following period of time, the southern army of the ind country entered the stage of full defense. Arge number of Japanese military forces began to build defense lines along the coast. The inds of Sumatra, Java and New Guinea are even more important ces for defense. General Shouyi in the temple also visited the front line many times to inspect the defense line. He is very clear that for the southern army, the most difficult period ising soon. If they cannot withstand the German attack, then what awaits them will be destroyed. And he, themander of the Southern Army, is estimated to be thestmander of the Southern Army. The final result will naturally not be much better.


    On July 20, General Hisashi Terauchi, who had inspected the front line of defense, returned to Batavia.


    In the afternoon of the same day, General Toshiichi Terauchi called all the armies under the Southern Army, and themanders of each army held abat meeting. He could vaguely feel that as the main force of the German army had already moved to Southeast Asia and Australia, the German offensive would definitely kick off in the near future. This will be a great challenge for the southern army of the ind country army. Although, the total strength of the Southern Army is almost three million. However, General Toshiichi Terauchi had no idea about whether he could withstand the German attack.


    The ind army wants to think highly of itself, but even so, they dare not underestimate the German army. You know, the German army''s title of number one in the world was earned through one battle after another. Countries that were once extremely powerful were defeated by the German army one after another. Even the country was destroyed. This makes the Japanese army have to pay special attention and vignce.


    At two o''clock in the afternoon, General Toshiichi Terauchi walked into the conference room. All themanders of the Front Army and the Army under the Southern Army of the ind country stood up and saluted.


    After returning a gift from General Shouda in the temple, he sat down in his seat.


    Those front troops and armymanders, just sit down now.


    Terauchi Shouichi nced at these generals. From their faces and eyes, Terauchi Shouichi could clearly feel everyone''s nervousness. Obviously, everyone knows what kind of opponent they will face this time. There is also a lot of pressure on everyone. Everyone knows very well how powerful the enemy they want to defeat this time is. It can be said that the odds of winning will be very, very low.
