The Island Army Air Force deployed four air forces in Southeast Asia, and one air force each in Java Island, Sumatra Island, Borneo and Luzon Island. However, in the previous confrontation with the Luftwaffe, the Army Air Force of the island country has always been at a disadvantage, and the troops suffered heavy losses.

   This time, the Luftwaffe added three tactical aviation clusters and three strategic aviation clusters to Nanyang and Australia, bringing the German Air Force's strength in Nanyang and Australia to 6 tactical aviation clusters and 3 strategic aviation clusters. A total of more than 5,400 fighters of various types. Moreover, the fighters of the three newly added tactical aviation groups are all TA-152 fighters, and the fighters in the previous three tactical aviation groups are also FW-190 fighters. Follow-up also began to supplement TA-152 fighters. This makes the power of the German Air Force in Southeast Asia and Australia completely superior to the army air force of the island country.

  Before launching the offensive, the Luftwaffe found almost the locations of the airfields of the island army air forces on Sumatra, Java and Borneo. When the tactical aviation group assisted the navy in attacking the island army's fortifications on the coast, the three strategic aviation groups of the Luftwaffe, also under the protection of their own fighter jets, began to bomb the airport of the island army air force.

   Destroy the enemy's airport first, defeat the enemy's air force, and seize air supremacy. This has become the common sense of the German army before launching a large-scale offensive. Compared with the German Air Force, the Army Air Force of the island country lacks experience in this area. This also made the island country's Army Air Force suppressed by the Luftwaffe from the very beginning. Moreover, this will cause the Japanese army to lose air supremacy. In the future, it will only continue to be at a disadvantage.

  General Terauchi Toshiichi learned that except for the air force located in Luzon Island that was not bombed, the other three air forces were bombed. After suffering heavy losses, he immediately became furious.

   "Baga! Don't those **** have any defense at all? How could the Germans succeed so easily?" General Toshiichi Terauchi was very angry. He knew very well that after losing the air supremacy, it would be even more difficult to continue to resist the German attack.

   Lieutenant General Tsukada Gong lowered his head and said nothing. This is the end of the matter now, and it is useless to say anything else.

   "Report!" A communications officer stood at the door.

   "What's the matter?" General Shouichi of the temple scolded.

   "Sumatra and New Guinea were heavily shelled and bombed by the Germans," the officer reported.

   "Baga! Did the Germans launch an attack on Sumatra, Java and New Guinea at the same time? Their appetite must be too big!" General Toshiichi Terauchi's expression became very ugly. He knew that the German army was launching a large-scale offensive. This also means that the entire Southern Army will now be in a bitter battle. Except for Borneo and the Philippine Islands, other major defense areas have become battlefields.

   "Send a telegram to all the ministries, and the German attack will definitely be resisted!" General Toshiichi Terauchi ordered.

   "Yes, Your Excellency, Commander." Lieutenant General Tsukada Gong hurriedly sent a telegram. He didn't want to stay here any longer to bear the wrath of General Shou in the temple.

New Guinea Island, the coastline near Port Moresby, two 'Derfflinger-class' battlecruisers of the German Navy's Pacific Fleet lead a fleet of cruisers and destroyers, and are conducting a war on this coast shelling. This was originally a German colony, but after the fall of Dutch Indonesia, the German army voluntarily abandoned it. This made the entire island of New Guinea fall into the hands of the island nation. However, the Solomon Islands were still under German control.

  The German army started to fight on three main battlefields at the same time, which undoubtedly put the main force of the southern army of the island country army in fierce battle.

  The Southern Army Command also reported the news of the violent attack by the German army to the country as soon as possible. However, the telegram sent to them from home was asking the southern army to stand firm and resist the German attack. As for support and others, nothing was mentioned.

  In the northwest of Sumatra, the defense line of the 14th Front Army under the Southern Army of the island country was severely damaged by the heavy shelling of the German Navy and the bombing of the Air Force. A large number of fortifications were destroyed, and the island army on the front line suffered heavy casualties. Many island country army soldiers were even buried alive because the air-raid shelters and air-raid shelters were destroyed.

  The fierce shelling and bombing by the German Navy lasted for a full two hours before coming to an end. When the shelling and bombing ended, the island army's defense line was already in a mess. The whole beach seemed to be plowed by someone with a plow.

   "The German shelling and bombing stopped, and the troops were ordered to enter the position and prepare for battle!" General Fengwen Yamashita, commander of the 14th Front Army of the Japanese Army, issued the order immediately.

  So, after receiving the order, the island army on the front line began to enter the position one after another, preparing to resist the German landing.

  However, what puzzles the island army is. Although the German army put down a large number of landing craft on the sea, it has not started to attack for a long time.

   Ten minutes later, the island army will know what the Germans want to do.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The German fleet once again launched a fierce shelling, and heavy shells roared and hit the island army's position. Almost the positions that have been destroyed can no longer provide decent protection for the officers and soldiers of the Japanese Army. In other words, even if these fortifications are intact, they will not be able to withstand the bombardment of large-caliber naval guns at all.

  For a while, the shells of the German navy fell like raindrops, causing great casualties to the island army on the position.

  At the same time, the German Air Force launched another bombing, which further increased the losses of the island army.

  After General Yamashita Fengwen heard the news, he almost vomited blood with anger.

  At the same time, the German army also adopted the same deception tactics on Java Island and New Guinea Island. This caused the loss of the island army to soar. Before the German army started to land, the island army had suffered a lot of casualties. This undoubtedly added a shadow to this war.

   "Baga! Cunning Germans, they are so despicable and shameless!" General Toshiichi Terauchi couldn't help cursing after learning about the situation on the front line.

   This time, the German shelling lasted only half an hour before it began to extend to the depth of the island army's defense. The German Marine Corps began landing operations on Sumatra, Java and New Guinea.
