s: Asking for votes at the end of the month The Kalahari Basin is a major terrain area in central and southern Africa, with a total area of approximately 630,000 square kilometers.
It is the largest wide and shallow basin on the South African Plateau, located in the southern African plateau region.
It is located between the Orange River and the upper reaches of the Zambezi River to the north and south, and between the Zimbabwe Plateau and the Southwest African Highlands to the east and west.
The middle part of the basin is the Kalahari Desert, the largest desert in South Africa.
In the later generations of the original time and space, there was the famous Kalahadi Oryx National Park.
At this moment, on the northeastern edge of the Kalahari Basin, at the junction of Zimbabwe and South Africa in Japan's Iwase region, a large group of troops wearing khaki military uniforms is gathering here.
In this endless tropical desert, countless Japanese officers and soldiers are working hard.
They were wearing desert camouflage military uniforms, and the military hats were the kind with a back curtain, also known as the "butt curtain" hat.
For military fans of the original time and space, this kind of thing is very familiar.
In fact, this kind of "butt curtain" hat was invented by the French and is mainly used in the North African Army.
Its main purpose is to adapt to the tropical desert climate of Africa.
The "butt curtain" is used to protect the neck from exposure to the sun and sand and dust. of.
As for the fact that in the history of the original time and space, the Japanese also used this kind of military cap in other areas and even in the cold zone, it only shows that they have a lack of brains, but it is very suitable for them to use it here in this plane.
Of course, it is not only France and Japan that adopt this kind of "butt curtain" hat, almost all the powers with territory in the desert area have adopted it, including China.
The place where this army gathered was Manji in the Iwase Zimbabwe area, which was Mange hge in the original time and space.
After Japan succeeded, it was renamed "Manji".
In the Manji Basin, less than 70 kilometers away, there is the largest coal mine in Japan.
The quality of Wanji Coal Mine is quite good, with reserves of more than 15 billion tons, including more than 3.5 billion tons of high-quality coking coal, and most of them are open-pit and semi-open-pit coal fields, which are easy to mine.
After Japan got this place, it carried out large-scale construction here and developed coal resources.
As of last year, the raw coal output here has exceeded 37 million tons, accounting for about half of Japan's national output.
In the 21st century of the original time and space, the coal output of this place was only 3 million tons.
This is of course the reason why Black Millet lacks industrial skills, not because there is less coal here.
The Japanese army's concentration was mainly completed through this heavy-haul railway used to transport coal.
As the saying goes, "When the crowd exceeds ten thousand, the sky is boundless."
Once the crowd reaches ten thousand, it is very spectacular.
Only people who lack basic common sense would think that a small town could ambush 100,000 cavalry.
At this time, I saw that this endless tropical desert was densely packed with Japanese officers and soldiers wearing shit yellow camouflage and "butt curtains".
There are now more than 150,000 Japanese troops gathered on this land, and the mountains and plains are full of people.
Moreover, these 150,000 Japanese troops did not gather together in chaos, but acted in an extremely organized manner.
An organized crowd is far more powerful and intimidating than a scattered crowd.
Seen from the air at this moment, these neat Japanese troops have the feeling of migrating army ants.
The engines roared "buzzing", and countless trucks, off-road vehicles, and armored vehicles shuttled through the Japanese army's ranks, like a group of busy beetles.
There are also hundreds of armored fighting vehicles, infantry fighting vehicles, self-propelled artillery and other tracked vehicles mixed in.
They are carried by large flatbed trucks and wander like ancient behemoths among their shorter counterparts.
The "Shadow Bird" flying above had a clear view of all this.
"Hover around here and let's capture the whole scene," said the equipment man in the back seat.
"Okay."
The pilot agreed, then turned the plane around and circled the area below at a speed of Mach 095 and 1,100 kilometers per hour.
The pilot looked at the image on the screen and said: "There are at least 6 divisions.
I have seen signals from 6 division-level headquarters, and they are all mechanized troops."
There are radio detection systems and electromagnetic detection systems on the "Shadow Bird".
The former is to detect wireless communications, and the latter is to detect electronic communication instruments.
Their work includes wired communications, but they can only determine the working status and cannot analyze the content.
The communication volume of the divisional headquarters is huge, and the power of the equipment is also high.
Both the wireless signals and the electromagnetic fluctuations generated by the equipment are very strong, and there is no way to hide them from the detection equipment unless they are completely turned off.

At this moment, on the instrument screen, six groups of bright, blindingly bright crimson haloes clearly marked the location of the Japanese army's large headquarters.
In addition, near the six crimson halos, there are dozens to hundreds of smaller orange and yellow halos.
According to the experience of the scouts, these are the headquarters locations at the regiment, battalion and even company levels.
When the electromagnetic detection system is working, the synthetic aperture radar on board and more than a dozen cameras and video cameras with different media such as ultraviolet, infrared and optical are also faithfully recording everything on the ground.
"Shadow Bird" has a high degree of automation.
Scouts do not need to record these detection results.
The computer will automatically record all detection results and then send them to the headquarters through a data link.
Therefore, it is very easy to fly the "Shadow Bird".
You just need to fly the aircraft in a circle over the target.
When the "Shadow Bird" circled twice and flew away, the Japanese troops on the ground were still at a loss.
Japanese military headquarters.
"What's the situation on the other side?"
Gen.
Sugiyama asked.
He is the commander of the Western Group.
This guy is the most positive about South Africa's behavior this time.
Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Tadamichi Kuribayashi reported to him: "Commander, according to the investigation, the South African army on the opposite side has not made any changes and has not increased its troops."
"What about the United States?"
Wangi is also adjacent to the American state of Namibia.
Some time ago, the relationship between the United States and Japan was tense, and the United States also had heavy troops on the border.
However, now the main force of the United States has gone north to Congo state to fight East African sorghum.
Even the heavy bombers used to threaten Japan were transferred away.
“No changes found” "Okay, let's wait for the Yamashita side."
Sugiyama Yuan nodded and said to everyone in the conference room: "We are ready.
Once war is declared, we will rush across the border."
Sitting under him were a group of senior officers, including several war criminals who were familiar to Chinese people in later generations of the original time and space, such as Matsui Iwane, Umezu Yoshijiro, etc.
Ironically, these war criminals from the original time and space happened to be the "revolutionary-minded" category of the Japanese army in this plane.
Otherwise, even if they escaped the gallows of the great purges after the revolution of the new Japanese government, they would still have to Go home and eat old rice.
Komatiput, South Africa.
Komatiput was a famous tourist city in later generations and was the entrance to Kruger National Park.
But at this point it was just an ordinary border town.
The Komati River passes through here and enters Moshan Mozambique.
Due to the convenience of water transportation, it is an important market for border trade between the two countries.
After the deterioration of relations between the two countries, business here does not seem to be affected, and a large number of Japanese still enter Komatiput to do business every day.
But today, it is destined to leave its mark in history.
At this time, hundreds of soldiers from the two countries were confronting each other on the border between the two countries.
There are less than 50 people on the South African side, while there is an entire battalion on the Japanese side.
"Our people are missing.
They are on your side.
Get out of the way.
We are going to look for them."
Teruzo Ando, the Japanese colonel who led the team, said in stiff English.
The leader of the South African side was a major.
He said angrily: "Nonsense, I have been here today and I have not seen a single Japanese soldier at all, and we do not allow armed personnel to enter."
"Assholes, you don't admit it."

Teruzo Ando immediately called a man dressed as a civilian over and said, "Look, this is a witness.
Come on, tell me what you saw."
The Japanese civilian said hesitantly: "I went to Komatiput to buy crocodile meat this morning, and I did see a Japanese officer in the town, who seemed to be a lieutenant colonel."
"Look, is it this person?"
Teruzo Ando took out a photo and asked.
"Yes, yes, that's him."
"Is he still holding a briefcase?"
Teruzo Ando motioned to the soldier to take out an officer's briefcase.
The Japanese civilian thought for a while and said: "Let me think about it, yes, there seems to be such a bag."
Ando Teruzo shook the photo in his hand at the South African major: "Okay, you saw it.
This is one of our lieutenant colonel staff officers named Tsuji Masanobu.
He disappeared in your town today.
We received a call from our superiors.
Order, he must be found.
I will give you five minutes to think about it now, otherwise we will forcefully enter and search."
"You are deliberately provoking me and I will never allow it."
Major Thomas was so angry that stars appeared in his eyes.
Although he has fewer people in his hands now, the pride from the white people prevents him from showing weakness.
Does the yellow-skinned monkey still dare to come here?
Ando Teruzo's attitude was very tough, and Major Thomas refused to give in.
The atmosphere in the armies of both sides was extremely tense, and both sides aimed their guns at each other.
Well, this time Ando Teruzo and his gang really didn’t know the plan from above.
The order they received was that a staff officer of Tsuji Masanobu was missing.
However, this girl still had important military secrets on her body, so she must Find it out.
So he was really anxious.
"Bang!"
At this time, a gunshot came from inside Komatiput.
"Bang bang" followed by several more sounds.
Then they faintly heard calls for help in Japanese.
"Colonel, this is the voice of Staff Officer Tsuji," a major staff officer sent to assist said quickly.
"Okay, as expected, you must have kidnapped him."
Ando Teruzo quickly imagined a scene in his mind of Tsuji Masanobu being trained by a group of white-skinned burly men in a secret room.
After hearing gunshots and calls for help, Major Thomas and his men were a little unsure.
What's going on here?
Before he could answer, Teruzo Ando on the opposite side gave the order to take action.
"subdue them" The Japanese soldiers, who had been ready to move for a long time, pounced on them, one by one, ready to capture the opponent.
Teruzo Ando didn't even think of shooting.
"Bang!"
A South African soldier fired in panic, while a Japanese soldier covered his head.
This was so serious that the already nervous Japanese soldiers also fired:
