Fall back?

After hearing Tanaka's words, the chief of staff of the Japanese army was stunned for a moment.

Now that their troops have been surrounded, where else can they retreat?

Tanaka Shinichi said: "You pick a squad of troops, our headquarters, and withdraw from the gap of the opposing troops. The large army cannot be withdrawn, but it is impossible for the other party's encirclement to be free of any gaps. As long as we move fast enough, I believe our command can be withdrawn. ”

Shinichi Tanaka's idea is very simple, since others can't save him, then he can only find a way to save him.

As for the 18th Division...... Okamura doesn't care, I'm still a fart!

Let's ask for more blessings, everyone.

The chief of staff of the Japanese army was not stupid, and immediately understood what Shinichi Tanaka meant.

Soon, a squad of strong fighters was assembled, along with ten trucks.

In order to be able to retreat as soon as possible to save his life, the chief of staff of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army also fought hard.

After preparing this, Tanaka Shinichi got into the truck, and quickly looked for a place to retreat with the Japanese officers and a squad of Japanese officers from the headquarters.

A cigarette left for the other devils.

As soon as Tanaka Shin ran, the devils of the 18th Division immediately lost the will to fight, and under the powerful offensive of the temporary 1st regiment, they were quickly crushed.

The encirclement is getting smaller and smaller.

By the time it got dark, the entire 18th Division of the Japanese Army had been compressed into an area of about a few square kilometers.

At this time, in the headquarters of the 15th Army of the Japanese Army, Okamura was completely blind.

He gave the things, and he sent a telegram, and the other party replied with a telegram that they had withdrawn their troops, and made way for the 18th Division to retreat to country T.

But until now, there is still no news from the 18th Division.

Could it really be that the radio station is broken?

Okamura is still not at ease.

He walked around the command with his hands behind his back, extremely irritated.

Aoki, chief of staff of the Japanese army, said: "Your Excellency, commander, do you think the other party will not be trustworthy?" Took what we had and still launched an attack on our troops? ”

Well???

Okamura glanced at Aoki sharply, and his eyes rolled around, this possibility ......

Not big, right?

Then he thought about it again and thought it was unlikely.

All the telegrams he and the other party had in plain code.

If the other party does not keep his word, it will be condemned by everyone.

The other party is a soldier and will definitely cherish his reputation.

Perhaps, the 18th Division, it's really just that the radio is broken.

"Send our planes to reconnoiter immediately, and report immediately if you laugh at the 18th Division."

Aoki said: "Your Excellency, our planes are gone, and now there are only two transport planes here. ”

"The transport plane is also going to be dispatched, I must know the news of the 18th Division!"

Okamura's face was gloomy, he had never failed so completely.

A hundred fighters, and they were gone.

A Japanese transport plane took off humming from the Manshui River.

The Japanese pilots on the transport plane were terrified.

Damn, am I driving a transport plane?

Why was I given such a dangerous task as aerial reconnaissance?

Transport...... If you encounter the opponent's combat power, you can't run away at all!

He really wanted to say no if he could.

It's a pity that if he dares to say a word, he will be beaten to death immediately.

Okamura watched the slowly disappearing transport plane, trying to calm himself down.

Wait a little longer, there will be news of the 18th Division soon.

There were not many devils left in the encircled 18th Division of the Japanese Army, and two or two hours after Shinichi Tanaka fled with his headquarters, the 18th Division of the Japanese Army was beaten by more than 1,000 people.

It was a matter of time before it was wiped out.

At this time, Li Lei suddenly heard the roar of an airplane in the air.

Well?

Li Lei listened to the roar of the plane and felt very unfamiliar.

A soldier ran over: "Report to the regiment commander, there is a big plane in the sky!" ”

Big planes?

Li Lei walked out of the command headquarters and looked up.

This is a devil's transport plane!

How did you get here?

Isn't this looking for death?

"Regiment commander, do you want Wang Han to shoot down the Japanese plane?"

Li Lei was about to agree, and then suddenly thought, what is this devil's transport plane doing here?

Now that the Japanese army has no fighters, isn't it looking for death to send a transport plane over?

"No, let Wang Han send a few planes to monitor the back, look at this devil's plane, what do you want to do?"

Li Lei feels that things are not so simple.

This Okamura is not stupid, and he must have his purpose in sending a transport plane over.

Li Lei thought for a moment, and then smiled.

The reason why a transport plane was sent was probably to see how the 18th Division of the Japanese Army was doing now, right?

Okamura has now lost contact with the 18th Division, and if he wants to know the situation of the 18th Division, he can only send planes to investigate.

The problem is that now the Japanese army has no other aircraft to use.

As for this transport plane, it is estimated that it is still preparing for the retreat of Okamura.

In this way, if this plane had not been shot down, the Japanese transport plane would have finally flown to the headquarters of the 15th Army of the Japanese Army.

Thinking of this, Li Lei hurriedly ordered: "Tell the ground troops that they are not allowed to fire at the Japanese planes."

Wang Han was ordered, so the plane immediately took off and stood by in the air. When the Japanese transport plane returned, it followed. As soon as the Japanese command was discovered, bombing was carried out. ”

After hearing Li Lei's words, Zhao Gang slapped his thigh fiercely.

Yes!

Now Mawlamyine has been beaten down by them.

The planes flying in the sky could only come from the Japanese command.

As long as you keep up, you will definitely be able to find the headquarters of the 15th Army of the Japanese Army.

When the time comes, there will be a large-scale bombing, and Okamura will have to shed his skin if he does not die.

At the same time, Li Lei ordered: "Order the troops, within an hour, to kill the remaining strength of the Japanese army, all the troops, and prepare to enter Mawlamyine." ”

The fifteenth army of the Japanese army has been completely finished, and now Li Lei is thinking about what the temporary regiment needs to do next?

Also, what to do with the five captured Japanese warships?

The five battleships are still stuck in Mawlamyine, and how to return home is a big question.

Now almost all of Southeast Asia is full of Japanese troops, and the sea is also full of Japanese warships, and it is not easy to want these five warships to go back.

To this end, Li Lei asked David for advice.

What David meant was that although almost all of the Japanese warships were on the sea, that was only in Southeast Asia.

The five warships of the temporary regiment could completely bypass it, and if they set out from Mawlamyine, they would definitely not be able to pass through the Strait of Malacca.

Now the Strait of Malacca has been occupied by the Japanese army.

The safest way to do this is to go around to Java, from Java to Port Moresby, replenish supplies, and then go all the way north to Wake Island and then to Midway.

Midway has their country's naval fleet, and when the time comes, it will be completely mixed with their fleet, waiting for the opportunity to return home.

Li Lei thought about it, this is the only feasible plan.

But the problem is that, after all, this is not a warship of David's country, and if Chen Anping and them get to Midway, there will definitely be a lot of difficulties.

David was a smart man and quickly understood Li Lei's concerns.

He said that he would definitely make proper arrangements for Chen Anping's seven battalions and those five warships.

"Commander Li Lei, don't forget, I'm a naval colonel. Moreover, I also have an identity. ”

And another identity?

Li Lei was stunned for a moment, what is his identity?

David blinked mysteriously: "Commander Li Lei, have you heard of Chrysler?" ”

Chrysler?

Li Lei was stunned for a moment, isn't that a car? "David, isn't that a car manufacturer in your country? Is there anything wrong with this? ”

David snapped his fingers proudly and whistled: "That's right, Commander Li Lei." But now the car company has begun to produce tanks, artillery shells and airplanes. Even light warships, will be made. ”

This sentence reminded Li Lei.

David is right, now his country, all the industrial enterprises, should be converted to military use.

But what does this have to do with my Seventh Battalion?

Li Lei still didn't understand too much.

David pointed to himself: "Head Li Lei, this company is one of my family's industries. ”

What's that?

David's words completely shocked Li Lei.

That factory is your family's industry? Do you have a score or a score for talking??

"David, this is no joke. You mean, you're a boy? ”

Dude??

When David heard this, he waved his hand repeatedly: "Oh no, no, no. Commander Li Lei, I don't like this title. The reason why I want to tell you this is to let you understand that I am fully capable of properly accommodating your five warships and Battalion Commander Chen.

Commander Li Lei, you are the most intelligent and courageous commander I have ever met.

I admire you so much that I would love to do something for you.

Don't worry, I'll be in touch with our people right away and tell them to be prepared not to accidentally damage your five warships. ”

If this is the case, then Li Lei is much more at ease.

Li Lei looked at David in surprise, this big man who is not good-looking, is not small!

"David, your factory, in addition to producing tanks, airplanes, etc., produces guns and ammunition?"

When Li Lei heard that David's family actually had an arsenal, he immediately became interested.

I have a good relationship with David, so it should be possible for him to find a way to get me some equipment or something, right?

David nodded: "Of course, now in my family's factory, there are three production lines for the production of M3 submachine guns, as well as for the production of automatic rifles." ”

Hearing David say this, Li Lei suddenly felt that this David was also quite handsome.

"David, can you call the shots with these arsenals?"

David shrugged: "I've never been interested in those. You know, I'm a soldier, not a businessman. ”
