At eight o'clock in the evening of May 29, 1942, Bai Shujie gave an order, and 48 Nulong transport planes loaded with the Second Airborne Regiment of the Marine Corps took off from the airport on Timor Island, flew south over the 500-kilometer-wide Timor Sea, and swooped directly over the city of Darwin.

Ke Mingxiang's 2nd Airborne Regiment had one mission: to seize the airport in Darwin according to the photographs taken by the reconnaissance plane, and then hold on to the airfield.

The city of Darwin is actually a small corner of the peninsula jutting out to the west, and the city is not very large, so the real airport is not in Darwin City, but near the entrance to the "Little Point" where the city of Darwin is located. That place is called Naros.

Australia has an army, but not to protect itself, but to defend the British Queen.

When Hitler, the German mustache, began to attack Britain, he was originally preparing to force Britain to surrender through air raids, but this goal was not achieved. And the naval power of Hitler, the mustache of Germany, was much worse than that of the British, so the German Army did not dare to cross the English Channel.

What to do?

Hitler, the German mustache, shook his mustache, so he took it to heart: "Lao Tzu is timid and does not dare to cross the English Channel, but Lao Tzu can rob your colony in the Mediterranean Sea and turn your British into an isolated island in Europe." ”

As a result, Mussolini of Italy, the unsuccessful little brother, saw that the boss Hitler had something to say, but he understood the wrong meaning, and took the lead in Greece when the German mustache had not yet completed the strategic adjustment.

However, four divisions went up in a row, but they were beaten by a group of Greek guerrillas and lost their armor and were crushed. Mussolini saw that the general situation was not good, and hurriedly called Hitler, a super-old bearded man, to come and "pull the brothers".

Unexpectedly, the German army was not nearby at all, and the mustachioed Hitler was also beyond the reach of the whip. Mussolini saw that there was no hope, so he decided to break the jar and break it: "If you want to play, you can play a big one, and if you want to lose, you will lose cleanly." ”

In order to relieve the four divisions of the vanguard, Mussolini sent out an army of one million in one go. As a result, it was defeated by Greece in less than three months, and more than 500,000 troops were in danger of being surrounded by Greek troops and swallowing them in one gulp.

If you want to talk about Hitler with a mustache, that's really buddy.

Seeing that the younger brother was being bullied, he had to give up the battlefield in the north and sent twelve divisions of German troops to help.

Unexpectedly, the almost invincible Greek army in Mussolini's mouth, under the command of the German commander Field Marshal Liszt, occupied the whole of Greece at the end of April 1941 in only three weeks. Greece was fortunate enough to be invaded by Italy first and was the last country to be occupied by Germany in World War II.

After the German occupation of all of Greece, Italy and Bulgaria picked up big bargains. Greece was divided into three parts, occupied by Germany, Italy, and Bulgaria.

Among them, Italy occupied nearly 70% of Greece, and Germany, because it wanted to concentrate its forces on attacking the Soviet Union, occupied an area that was not as large as the Bulgarian army, and the remaining troops were mainly deployed on the island of Crete, near North Africa.

Churchill looked at it: "I'm cāo, you mustache is too lacking in virtue." The jewel in the British Queen's crown (referring to Hong Kong) has been snatched by the Japanese monkeys. The Mediterranean Sea is the heart and soul of the British Queen, if this is swept away by your mustache, and the British Queen doesn't even have to wear a skirt, will she go out to meet people with her bare ass in the future? ”

Is it tolerable or intolerable?

If you want to ensure that the British Queen is not just a butt in the future, she must send troops to Africa to "maintain law and order" and declare her own existence.

However, the British Empire had no troops to send, so what should be done?

The shameless Churchill had a way, and at the sound of an order, the 6th, 7th, and 9th Divisions, the absolute main force of the Australian Army, plus the 48 squadrons of the Air Force, were immediately ordered to go out for the Middle East battlefield. Then he moved on to the Middle East and North Africa, "fighting for the skirt and ass of the British Queen."

Unexpectedly, the Japanese devils, under the command of Yamashita Fumi, suddenly attacked the Sumatra Islands and Java Islands. Although the British, Indian and Australian Eighth Divisions carried out the "desperate resistance" that the Hamekha British desperately beautified in later generations, it only took more than 50 days for the little devils to advance 600 kilometers and encircle Singapore.

Holding on to Singapore for less than seven days, the British commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Percival, decided to surrender, and more than 134,000 British, Indian and Australian troops laid down their arms.

Among them, more than 15,000 Australian Brigadier General Maxwell and soldiers were captured, and now they are all in Bai Shujie's prisoner of war camp, and the Australian Eighth Division no longer exists.

The huge cluster of more than 130,000 people did not withstand the seven-day attack of more than 40,000 people from the two divisions of the little devils. Australia has lost a main division, and the homeland is already in danger.

The situation has developed to the present, and it is a big question whether Australians want "the skirt of the British Queen" or their own nest.

The Sumatra archipelago, the Java archipelago, and the Brahman Islands all fell in less than two months, and nearly 140,000 people could not resist the attack of more than 40,000 Japanese devils and surrendered, which shocked the whole world.

British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, although shameless, now knows that the situation is very bad, so he said with deep sorrow: "The fall of Singapore was the largest surrender and the worst disaster in British history."

And in Australia, from government officials to ordinary people, they were simply stunned.

They never expected that the British troops in Singapore and Malaya would be as vain as termite-eaten wood, and that Singapore, known as the fortress of the East, would be so vulnerable.

Known as the "patron saint of Australia" for hundreds of years, the invincible "Mother of England" turned out to be a pile of sand that collapsed with a little finger stretched out by a family and touched it lightly.

There is still an advantage to being a slave - that is, you can choose your master at any time.

In this regard, Australians are setting an example for the world.

It is obvious that Australia at this time has suddenly changed from aiding "the skirt and ass of the British mother" to a poor worm in urgent need of "mother's" rescue.

The reason why British Prime Minister Winston Churchill is shameless is that he has repeatedly sworn that "when Australia is threatened, Britain will immediately do everything in its power to help." "But now there's not even a fart.

Australian Prime Minister Curtin asked Britain to withdraw Australia's troops to defend their country.

British Prime Minister Winston Churchill did not say no directly, but promised again and again that Britain would do its best to strengthen the defensive line from Burma to Darwin.

Curtin, who only became prime minister in October 1941, was not impressed by the shameless Churchill this time.

Because he knows all too well how dangerous the situation is and what it means for Australia to continue to listen to beautiful promises.

Subsequently, Curtin published his first statement since taking office in the Melbourne "Courier", and also made public Australia's historic decision:

"I want to make it clear that Australia can't count on the UK, we have to count on the US. To get rid of the soreness that comes with the traditional kinship with the UK. ”

"We know the difficulties of the UK, we know that she faces an invasion at any time, we know the danger of dispersion, but we also know that the UK can hold on without Australia."

"So we're determined not to let Australia fall into the hands of an adversary. We will make every effort to build a U.S.-led strategy. ”

Curtin's remarks marked not only a strategic shift for Australia in World War II, but also a pivotal point in Australia's history: from relying on and following Britain to relying on and following the United States.

What is Minion? Then there is a sentence: "If you have milk, you are a mother." ”

Curtin, as a politician, is certainly well aware. At this moment, Australia is falling into the arms of the United States, which is not wishful thinking, because the United States also needs Australia.

The sudden attack of the Japanese devils caught the Americans by surprise and they retreated one after another.

After the Philippines occupied by the United States was lost to the Japanese devils, they needed to establish an impregnable base in the western Pacific and use this as a basis to launch a counteroffensive against the Japanese devils.

When MacArthur fled Manila and arrived in Melbourne in disgrace, he was greeted by the locals as if they were heroes, and his vanity was somewhat satisfied.

Welcoming MacArthur is secondary, and the key is that the Australian people see MacArthur as a symbol of American support for Australia, and the arrival of the American general has brought a sense of security to Australia.

When MacArthur came, then there was no need to look at the faces of the British. Lieutenant General Bremen, the supreme commander of the Australian Army, was recruited from the Middle East by Prime Minister Curtin, along with the 6th and 7th Divisions of the Australian Army.

MacArthur took the initiative and directly appointed Bremen as the commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in the southwest Pacific, commanding the US-Australia coalition forces and the US-Philippine coalition forces in a unified manner.

Now, Ke Mingxiang's airborne regiment is going to raid the airfield in Darwin, and the defense force is the Sixth Army Division under Bremen.

However, Bai Shujie knows that although the Australian Air Force does not have outstanding fighters, it can be called the fourth in the world.

Throughout World War II, the Royal Australian Air Force had a maximum of 182,000 personnel, with a total of 61 squadrons and 6,200 aircraft.

Because of this, if you want to defeat the Australian army, you must first be able to fully suppress the opponent's air force, so Bai Shujie's airdrop this time is only 700 kilometers away, so in addition to using the Nulong heavy transport aircraft to airdrop 48 armored vehicles, 12 Crazy Dragon helicopters and 12 Mi-2 helicopters also came.

For the "pseudo-strong army" of the American army, the British army, the Australian army, and the French army, it is much worse than a little devil, and Bai Shujie has never taken it seriously.

For such a "second-rate level strong army", absolutely do not make any tentative moves with them, the most important thing is to punch him, he must be smashed to the ground, and then wait to capture the prisoner.

Before Ke Mingxiang set off, Bai Shujie had already given a face-to-face lecture: "The US-British coalition, the US-Philippine coalition, and the US-Australia coalition army, they first care about whether they can survive, and then they think about other things, and they value their own lives more than their ancestors." ”

"So if you attack, you have to kill them directly. Don't hesitate to look ahead. As long as you show your indomitable momentum, the rest of them will have to surrender. ”

Zhang Mingxiang and the others were airdropped at Coonawarra, 3 kilometers south of the airfield, and it is said that such a close distance will definitely alarm the enemy.

But just the opposite, because the Australian 6th Division was defending the coastline, there was no defense against the enemy from behind.

Zhang Mingxiang personally led 24 helicopters from the air to the airfield, followed by 48 armored vehicles in the lead, followed by a large force.

“Youhavebeensurrounded，surrenderedwithoutkilling!” (You are surrounded, surrender and do not kill!) After all, what happens next, let's see how it breaks down next time.
