The 1st Regiment had retreated to Pingmana and joined up with the rest of the troops.

The Fifth and Sixth Armies had already arrived at the intended location.

Reconnaissance personnel sent out by the command sent a telegram saying that the 56th Division of the Japanese army had entered Moltke and was advancing in the direction of Rauikao.

The 55th Division of the Japanese Army also set out from Dawei and advanced towards Alamman.

The 11th Army of the entire Japanese army has been dispersed and has become a three-way army.

The commanders of the expeditionary force were all impressed by Li Lei's prediction.

The movements of the Japanese army are exactly the same as those analyzed by Li Lei, and they are simply divine.

The entire troop movement of the Japanese army seemed to be under Li Lei's nose.

That's amazing!

It's hard to win a war like this!

For Li Lei's command and judgment ability, David simply admired it.

This was an eye-opener for David.

Super Lei actually completely judged the battle plan of the Japanese army!

It's simply unbelievable.

Now everything is going according to the predetermined plan.

According to the current marching speed of the Japanese army, the Japanese army will be able to reach the Pingmanna area in almost a day.

The time of the day, that's very fast.

David was now in front of the map, pointed to Tang Ji in the northeast direction of Pingman, and said, "Head Li, I'm still worried about Tang Ji.

If the Japanese 56th Division had advanced too quickly, they would have reached Tangji in three days. ”

Li Lei nodded and said: "If you follow the normal marching speed of the Japanese army, it will take three days.

If they had made a hasty march, they would have been there in about two days. ”

David was stunned for a moment: "Commander Li, in this case, we need to annihilate the 11th Division of the Japanese army within two days, which is very difficult!" ”

Difficulty?

Li Lei was laughed at by David's words.

It's more than difficult!

It's just very difficult!

But that's not impossible!

Now the headquarters is in Pingmanna, and the troops of two armies have been released.

There is also an absolute main force for the time being.

The combat effectiveness of the temporary regiment is stronger than the combat effectiveness of an army.

The current 1st Provisional Regiment, except that it is not as large as the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, is stronger than the 11th Division of the Japanese Army in other aspects.

There are more tanks than it, more planes than it, more artillery than it.

Together with the Fifth and Sixth Armies, it was completely capable of annihilating the 11th Division of the Japanese army.

The only question is, how long will it take.

It was not important that the Japanese 56th Division occupied Tangji.

As long as the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Army can annihilate the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, it can completely turn over and attack the 56th Division.

As long as the 11th Division of the Japanese Army was annihilated within two days, this plan could be realized.

At this time, in the headquarters of the 15th Army of the Japanese Army, Shojiro Iida was looking at the map.

His three divisions have already been deployed on the battlefield, and it is very smooth.

And the 18th Division has also assembled in Dawei and is ready to march to Ringanqiang with the 55th Division.

Judging by the current situation, the war is progressing well.

The 11th Division reported that they had a wing, which was annihilated at Tonggu.

Although it was a bit of a surprise to him, on the whole, he was completely acceptable.

From the beginning of the war to the present, they have only lost a wing of troops, which is very satisfying to him.

If the Fifteenth Army, under his command, can quickly occupy this place, then his reputation can be raised to a higher level.

Although I was not asked to go to Southeast Asia to command the war, it seems that my luck is not bad.

If this place can be taken down quickly, then Yamashita Fengwen will be compared to him.

Ha ha...

By now, there were troops of the expeditionary force everywhere.

The Fifth and Sixth Armies were fully deployed, preparing to attack the Japanese 11th Division from both flanks.

On the front of Pingmanna, a temporary regiment of howitzers and other artillery pieces were ready.

More than a hundred tanks of the 5th battalion have been assembled.

Chennault's Flying Tigers, and Wang Han's Flying Brigade, were already assembled in the air and stood by.

Their planes did not carry bombs for the time being, and their goal was to take out the Japanese planes.

The Japanese Fifteenth Army, which had almost a hundred planes, had to be killed.

Otherwise, it would be a great threat to the expeditionary force.

Li Lei's advantage was that the Japanese army still did not know that the temporary 1st regiment had entered the battlefield.

I didn't know that Li Lei had hundreds of planes in his hands.

This is very beneficial for Li Lei.

When the time comes, a sneak attack on the Japanese planes will surely be defeated by the Japanese planes.

Li Lei had ordered Wang Han and Chennault's planes to lie in ambush in the airspace above Pingmanna.

The Japanese 11th Division attacked Pingmanna, and Japanese planes would take off from Mawlamyine to support.

When the Japanese planes flew over the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, Wang Han and Chennault's planes would suddenly attack.

The Japanese planes were all loaded with bombs, and their maneuverability would be much worse.

After encountering Wang Han's plane, it was a live target.

If the Japanese planes wanted to fight in the air, they had to drop the bombs.

And underneath their planes was the 11th Division.

There is simply no way to drop the bomb.

Hey, hey, it's all dead!

Shojiro Iida sent a telegram to Ishizo Sakurai, and when he arrived in Heimanna, he immediately attacked.

Their planes in Dawei are ready to provide support.

Sakurai Ishizo's 11th Division, near dusk, finally arrived in the area south of Heimanna.

It's coming soon.

His 11th Division, in order to get here, made a rapid march.

Now that it had finally arrived, the troops had to rest for three hours, and after they had eaten, they had to attack.

"Order, the troops will start eating immediately, and in three hours they will immediately launch an attack on Pingmanna!"

Aha, infantry division of country Y, from now on, you are mine!

Where the 11th Division was stationed, it began to bury pots and cook rice.

Li Lei's reconnaissance unit soon discovered the shadow of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, and was surprised to find that they were eating.

After receiving this news, Li Lei immediately ordered the heavy artillery unit to launch an artillery bombardment on the position of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army.

At the same time, the 5th Battalion and other units advanced in coordination and immediately launched an attack on the 11th Division of the Japanese Army. Ishizo Sakurai is eating with relish.

Today's dinner is fried pieces and urine yellow miso soup, Sakurai Ishizo's favorite.

He was eating Zhengxiang, and suddenly, the sound of cannonballs came from the sky.

Meat!!!

Meat!!!!

Meat!!!!!

One is more poignant than the other. This terrifying voice made Sakurai Ishii's three scalps tingle when he listened.

And the devils of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army raised their heads strangely.

Where is this gunshot?

Sunset.

Under the warm sunlight, countless gray smoke appeared in the sky.

Flew over in a long trajectory.

The whole scene is spectacular, it is simply a feast for the eyes.

At the top of the smoke was a huge flame.

Flames wrapped in huge cannonballs and roared.

Like a meteorite swarm falling.

As far as the eye could see, the entire sky was covered in smoke and smoke.

The huge flame ball quickly smashed towards the 11th Division of the Japanese Army.

Rumble!!!

A shell fell to the ground, and immediately there was a violent explosion.

The shock wave generated by the explosion immediately spread rapidly to all sides, directly blowing up a bunch of devils.

At the same time as the explosion was generated, the orange flames spread rapidly, and the devils who were not blown up were immediately engulfed by the flames.

The chopsticks in Ishizo Sakurai's hand fell to the ground with a click.

There are enemies!!

This is the shelling of the enemy!!

Sakurai Shizo chuckled in his heart.

He was tempted to tell his troops, to get out of the way.

But he simply didn't have time to say it.

More shells smashed over.

The explosions were echoed.

There were explosions everywhere, and there was simply nowhere to hide.

Every shell fell, and the surrounding Japanese troops were killed or wounded.

Sakurai Ishizo's headquarters, at the very rear of the division, the shells have not yet extended, and they can't blow him up for the time being.

But even so, Ishizo Sakurai could still feel a strong tremor.

He looked at the cannonballs that exploded like fireworks in the distance, and his whole body was blinded.

What kind of cannon is this?

So powerful, so powerful?

The power of American large-caliber howitzers, Sakurai Shizo has seen it for the first time.

He was shocked.

The chief of staff of the Japanese army hurriedly said to Sakurai Shizo: "Division commander, we must retreat immediately!" The artillery fire of the other side is too fierce! One of our brigades has been blown up to the ground, and the losses must have been very large. Our troops here, must retreat.

The enemy's artillery fire will soon be extended! ”

Sakurai Ishizo reacted, his face was very dark.

The gloomy face was full of anger.

"No, order the troops, move forward at once. The enemy's artillery fire extends here, and our troops will advance rapidly. In this way, their artillery fire will not hurt us.

Yaga!

The other party succeeded in angering me.

Order your troops to attack Pingmana at once!

It is simply too arrogant to dare to sneak attack the troops of our empire! ”

Sakurai Ishizo immediately ordered.

The devils in the Japanese command were stunned, division commander, are you serious?
