Chapter 208 The first domino (fourth update, please subscribe)

Ask questions.

How do you use 1200 people to occupy a country with hundreds of thousands of troops?
  Without him, it’s just internal conquest.

Late at night on the 27th, two hours after the top brass of the Thai army launched a military coup to overthrow the so-called "pro-Japanese government" to avoid being severely punished by the allies, the plane coming from Borneo roared down with the roar of the plane. at the airport.

When the Me 323 "Giant" transport plane landed, the Thai soldiers at the airport all looked at these huge and even ugly aircraft in amazement, but when the "Cicada" tank drove out of the cabin of the transport plane, they could not help but They were either shocked or confused, and almost watched helplessly as the blond and blue-eyed "American troops" disarmed them.

In fact, they had received an order early in the morning - to fully cooperate with the Allies!
  These blond and blue-eyed "US troops" acted very quickly. While disarming the Thai troops at the airport, they also quickly took control of the airport.

After the Thai troops at the airport were disarmed and imprisoned, the C54 transport plane carrying the airborne troops began to land.

At this time, those who got off the plane were not the blond "US troops", but a group of commandos with oil paint on their faces. Although they were dressed the same as the US troops, their armbands had red stripes on a black background. hydra armband.

This is the first time Hydra has been shown publicly, in a very special way.

Of course, for the Siamese people at this time, they had no idea that Siam would become the first stepping stone on the road to the rise of "Hydra".

This day is the debut of "Hydra".

In the following decades, it can even be said that throughout the Cold War, the black-and-red-striped Hydra appeared again and again in hot spots. Coups, conspiracies, assassinations and the like were always related to the "Hydra" Get involved.

Countries were subverted one by one, colonies gained independence, agents were supported, and agents of other countries were assassinated. Behind these actions, when people see Hydra, they always trace the source from "hail hydra" and the phrase "Long live Hydra" to Siam and their first appeared once, but the mystery will always remain a mystery.

People have never found the answer, who is Hydra?
  Where did Hydra come from?
  Who supports Hydra?

But what is certain is that Hydra appeared after the demise of the Third Reich, and that Hydra has close ties with the Third Reich's intelligence agencies.

However, sometimes some things are so unbelievable, because the Hydra first appeared in Siam, and it appeared on this night. This was the first time that the Hydra appeared in front of the world. However, how did they get here? ? How did all this happen?

There is no solution to this mystery. But on July 45, 7, in the capital of Siam, people only thought that "Hydra" was the Allied Forces. "hail hydra" is just the beginning.

No one knew how much HYDRA would be able to do around the world in the coming decades. Let the American emperor drink his hatred and make the Soviet Union shed tears.

"Mr. Colonel, according to Mr. Panongi's order, we have prepared 150 trucks."

Major Lasson, who was in charge of liaison, looked at the Allied colonel in front of him.

The Allies actually sent a colonel to command this operation!
  Of course, he could never know that the colonel in front of him was actually what Churchill called "the most dangerous man in Europe", the kind who could be sent to the European War Criminals Court.

"Where are those people?"

"They're all waiting for you at the War Department, sir."

"To go to the War Department, there are our people all along the way, and now it is our people who control the entire capital."

Soon, under the leadership of Skorzeny, the Allied convoy entered the capital by car. The convoy drove directly to the War Department. At this time, the generals in the War Department who were looking forward to whitewashing did not know. The important thing is that they are also the targets of the coup.

However, unlike when they dispatched Thai troops to arrest government officials, it was the Allied forces who arrested them this time. When they learned that the Allied advance team had arrived at the Army Ministry and came to greet them excitedly, they never thought about waiting. Theirs turned out to be the black barrels of the guns, and the wide smile of Skorzeny's scarred face. “Gentlemen, congratulations on becoming members of the Allied Forces...”

While speaking, he paused deliberately and looked at the smiles on the faces of these dozens of generals before speaking.

"Allied prisoners of war!"

The next moment, the gun was pointed at them.

When they were arrested, everyone opened their eyes in shock, full of confusion and confusion.

They have obviously launched a coup, so they should be the ones to do it!

Obviously the Allies have given them a promise!

How could the Allies break their word and contradict their words?

In fact, they will never know that the Allies have never made any commitments, and this operation has never been included in the Allied Command's combat plan.

At [-] o'clock in the morning the next day, Billy Payron made a radio speech in the name of the Provisional Committee, announcing that Siam had abolished its alliance with Japan, calling on the Thai army to defend Siam and drive away the Japanese invaders who invaded Siam. At the same time, he also invited Allied forces enter Siam.

At the same time, just after the generals ordered their troops to surrender to the Allied forces and the Free Thai guerrillas at gunpoint and hand over their weapons, these generals were executed collectively in the backyard of the War Department.

After learning the news, Skorzeny was stunned for a while and then said.

"It's just their own business."

In fact, he is also very clear that sometimes some things are inevitable, especially in this case, the biggest obstacle for those who want to fully grasp the power is these soldiers.

That morning, the tens of thousands of troops of the 93rd Division stationed in the northern border area, led by Major General Lu, launched an attack across the border. Last year, he used one division to repel the attack of two Thai divisions and set fire to several of them. Ten tanks drove the Thai army out of the China-Myanmar border.

On the 28th, Major General Lu led two regiments to storm the First Division of the Thai Army. After a brief resistance, the First Division of the Thai Army announced its surrender, and the British army immediately invaded Siam from the Myanmar-Thailand border. Japanese troops stationed in the Siam border area fled toward Malaysia.

In one day, Siam, as an ally of Japan, completed its journey of abandoning darkness and turning to light.

However, in the following days, Siam did not calm down much - as punishment for Siam's joining the Japanese alliance, on the 30th, the Allied Command ordered the disbandment of the Thai army, and arrests began to be carried out within the army. A large number of The military boss was arrested as a war criminal. The arrest operation with the backing of the Allied forces went extremely smoothly. There was almost no resistance. In fact, they could not resist. After all, the Allied forces were already stationed here and were helping them drive away. While the Japanese invaders were being driven away, of course, some things also needed to be corrected.

Overnight, the Siamese military, which had held power in Siam for more than ten years, as a party that had deeply cooperated with the Japanese army, was naturally cleaned up and disappeared completely in the long river of history. And a Siamese army with the Free Thai guerrillas as the main body also stepped onto the stage.

In the days that followed, while Siam repeated its old name of Siam, the closed Chinese newspapers resumed publication, and Chinese schools were reopened. At the same time, the rule that Chinese language teachers must have studied Thai for four years before they were qualified to teach was abolished. . Many pro-Japanese officials were arrested, executed, or simply disappeared from the world.

What happened here that night?
  No one knows, not even the President of the Republic of Siam himself, who is involved, has never revealed anything to the outside world. After all, sometimes, secrets always stay secrets. Even the parties involved regard these things as secrets, so naturally, outsiders will be even more so. can not say it clearly.

But one thing that is certain is that what happened on this day profoundly changed the Indo-China Peninsula. Of course, the more changes were for Siam. Everything here has undergone subversive changes. The exiled The king never came back. Of course, for him, this was also lucky. He avoided death. For Nanyang, this was just the beginning of drastic changes. At least at this time, no one thought that this place was just The first domino to fall. Sometimes, some things are just like this. People always realize it afterwards. Even the planner himself never thought of all this, nor realized that the first domino fell. What does it mean to fall down...
