After the Japanese occupied the city of Dagon, they quickly divided their troops into three routes to pursue the retreating British colonial army north. The 33rd Division of the West Road launched an attack from the Dagon area along the Ilova River in the direction of Renqiang City.

Its intention was to quickly occupy the oil field area in Renqiang, and to cooperate with the Japanese army on the east and middle routes to clear the colonial troops in the colony and cut off the material transportation routes for foreign troops to assist the Nationalist government.

When Hu Biao encircled and annihilated the Japanese 55th Division pursuing from the middle, the vanguard of the Japanese 33rd Division had already passed through Magway south of Renqiang City, and captured Kova and Sadan in one go, covering the main force of the division to make a detour north of Renqiang City.

In the face of the overwhelming Japanese army, the colonial army that could not resist immediately asked the expeditionary force to take over the defense of Shawa, Devanyi, and Mawei on the Western Front to cover the retreat of the colonial army. It's a pity that the colonial army still underestimated the speed of the Japanese army's advance.

Receiving the telegram from Steve and Wei Junru, Hu Biao sneered: "These colonial troops are really a bunch of pigs!" It wasn't until the little devil was under his nose that he realized that he had to retreat. Is it too late to support at this moment?

Forget it, call back to the front finger, and order the nearest Sun Liren department to rush to reinforcements immediately. Then send a telegram to General Sun, telling him to be sure to delay the Japanese attack. Then send a report to the front commander, and transfer more vehicles and armored vehicles to Sun Bu. ”

"Yes, wolfhead!"

Originally, when he received this telegram, Qin Tianyou, as the chief of staff, was very curious: "Wolf head, why don't we go to war?" ”

After the end of the battle against Tonggucheng, the independent division rushed to the vicinity of Renqiang City in advance and waited for help. In Qin Tianyou's view, Hu Biao seemed to anticipate the changes in the battlefield situation, and he could always anticipate the enemy's opportunity and bring the troops to the most critical position.

But what surprised Qin Tianyou the most was that Hu Biao knew that the Japanese army was about to form an encirclement of the colonial army, but he still did not move. On the contrary, the new 38th Division Sun Liren, who was far away from Renqiang City, attacked, which was somewhat puzzling.

In the face of Qin Tianyou's inquiry, Hu Biao did not hide it: "For these colonial troops, this colony is like chicken ribs, if they can not give up, they will definitely not want to give up, so that they always want to wait and see."

There was an oil field in Renqiang City that the colonial government cared about, but they didn't know that this oil field was also extremely important to the Japanese army. Although the colonial army stationed many troops here, it was still unable to withstand the strong attack of the Japanese army.

The guns were all on their noses, and they remembered that they wanted to run away, how could they run past the little devils? Only by letting these colonies completely die will they obediently return to the Indian colonies. And this side is bound to become the main battlefield.

Previously, I had rallied all parties to form an expeditionary army, hoping that the country would take precautions as soon as possible. In my opinion, we must resolutely push back the two lines of the little devil's north and east roads, and prevent them from going further and threatening our strategic passage.

But in the middle of the road, I plan to let go completely, and let the little devil continue to chase along the route of the colonial army's escape. In this way, it will not only relieve our pressure, but also make the colonial army understand that escaping will not solve the problem. ”

As Hu Biao expresses his plans, if he is someone else, Qin Tianyou will definitely say 'You are so insidious'. can be Hu Biao's descendant general, Qin Tianyou knows better than anyone that Indochina and the British colonies have long been targeted by Hu Biao.

Keep the little devils in the British colonies and prevent them from continuing to expand their occupation zone. Let the little devils do a good job in the British colony for a while, and the wolf army and the colonial army will encircle the Japanese army on three sides.

In general, it is Hu Biao in the next big game of chess, and when the chess game is revealed, even if someone reacts, I believe that nothing can be changed. At that time, the wolf army had already established itself, and it was not afraid of the colonial army and other forces fighting back.

After receiving the telegram from the former finger, Sun Liren's department, which was closest to Renqiang City, quickly assembled. Not long after the troops set off, a team wearing the same military uniform found Sun Liren who was on the march.

After reading the documents, Sun Liren was also very happy and said: "Major Zhou, your supervision team is really everywhere!" ”

"In order to monitor the little devil's every move, our supervision team has been lurking all over the colony for a long time. We received an order from the division, so we came over to join you. I hope that in the future, we can have a happy cooperation! ”

"That's nature! I talked to General Dai earlier, and he admires your supervision team very much! ”

"That's what we should do! General Sun, time is pressing, and with the current marching speed of your troops, I am afraid that it will be difficult to reach the battlefield on time. In order to effectively delay the Japanese attack, we deliberately collected some cars.

Later, General Sun was asked to pick an elite main regiment and set off in advance by car! Send this main regiment over first, and then I will let the automobile battalion return, and then send the rest of your troops over one after another, which should be able to catch up. ”

Hearing this, Sun Liren was very amazed: "You have so many cars? ”

"I managed to collect some, and then the colonial army allocated some of them. Quickly projecting the strength of a regiment is not a big problem. In the future, our division has asked the colonial army to hand over a regiment of armored tanks to your unit. ”

"What? Equip me with an armored tank regiment? ”

"Yes! Didn't the general tell us earlier that he wanted to form a fully mechanized army? ”

Listening to the words of Captain Zhou of the supervision team, Sun Liren also became full of joy. For him, there is a real preference for commanding mechanized troops. But he never thought that Hu Biao would remember a sentence in the casual conversation earlier.

In addition to being grateful in his heart, one of the regiment commanders under Sun Liren quickly ordered: "Liu Fangwu, your regiment will immediately rush to Renqiang City by car, and Major Zhou's subordinates will lead the way for you." What you have to do is to contain the Japanese army for a while. ”

"Yes, Master!"

"In order to strengthen the firepower of your regiment, I have transferred a batch of machine guns from the remaining two regiments of the division headquarters to you. After arriving at Renqiang City, remember to consult with Major Zhou's subordinates. If there is any situation, report to the division headquarters at any time! ”

"Yes, Master!"

After accepting the order to fight the vanguard, Liu Fangwu ordered the troops to board the car without saying a word. Looking at the cars driving out of the dense forest mountain road, the officers and men of the new 38th Division were dumbfounded, feeling that the number of cars was beyond imagination!

At the same time as the troops boarded the car, the ammunition supplies carried by Liu Fangwu's regiment were also loaded onto the car. This also means that on the way to Renqiang City, they only need to stay in the car and do not have to trot and march at all.

The extra car, Major Zhou also handed over to Sun Liren to deal with. With these cars, the new 38th Division, which carried a lot of ammunition and supplies, also became a lot easier, and could run with small steps free of its hands and feet.

When the car drove for a long time, the car at the head saw the person waving the flag on the highway and quickly said: "Captain Liu, it's time to get there!" Drive further ahead, and you'll run into little devils. Next, we have to go back, take care! ”

"Thanks, brother!"

Liu Fangwu, who got out of the car, immediately shouted: "The whole group gets off!" Start packing your gear and get ready for battle! ”

In the process, the officers and men of the automobile battalion in charge of transportation took out a jack from the cockpit one after another, placed it at the bottom of the car, and soon shook it desperately, the car was jacked up.

As the driver pushes the car, the front and rear of the car make a U-turn on the road in an instant. Liu Fangwu, who was originally worried about how so many cars would turn around, was completely stunned when he saw this scene, and felt that these car soldiers were so good!

"It seems too easy for this car to turn around!"

The rest of the officers and men who went out to see this scene also felt that today was an eye-opener. But they didn't know that this was just a routine operation of the wolf army's transport troops. For these drivers, this is a subject they often train.

After the salute, the car soldiers who transported Liu Fangwu and others to the outside of Renqiang City quickly disappeared from everyone's sight. The supervisory team members who came with Liu Fangwu quickly reported the situation in Renqiang City to Liu Fangwu accordingly.

After listening to the situation report, Liu Fangwu also frowned and said, "The little devil is so fast!" ”

"To be exact, the speed of the little devil is actually not high, it can only be said that the retreat speed of the foreign devil is too slow. At present, there are nearly 10,000 colonial troops in the city, including many foreign journalists and missionaries.

It's getting late now, and it's going to be difficult to get them out. Earlier, we received an order from the division headquarters, and he ordered your troops to lurk behind the Japanese troops first, and when the time is ripe, launch a surprise attack, and try to attract the attention of the Japanese army.

We will then contact the colonial forces and have them launch a counterattack against the encircling Japanese forces, flanking them in front of them to try to open a retreat route. In a few hours, I believe that the rest of your division will almost arrive one after another. ”

"Good! It's just that I need to report this to the division! ”

"Of course!"

After obtaining Sun Liren's consent, Liu Fangwu asked the troops to replenish dry food on the spot, and then carried weapons and equipment, and lurked behind the Japanese encircling troops under the leadership of the supervision team. In front of Liu Fangwu, there was a unit of the Japanese wing.

At this time, the colonial army that was blocked in Renqiang City also received a secret telegram from Hu Biao. There are only a few short words on it, which is to prepare for the breakout and wait for the next telegram.

Srem, the general of the colonial army stationed in Renqiang City, was very puzzled: "Before the reinforcements arrive, how can we break through the siege?" Why such a telegram? When you break through, send us a telegram again, does this guy want to command us remotely? ”

"General, this General Hu is very powerful, he led his troops to annihilate a Japanese division on the periphery of Tonggu City. He made a special note in the telegram that let's keep this a secret. Come to think of it, I was afraid of leaking the news in advance. ”

Thinking of the recent arrest from the colonial army, the officers who had sent a message to Fuso, Srem didn't say anything more. After thinking about it, he still ordered the troops to start sorting out supplies and be ready to break through at any time.

At this time, Liu Fangwu, who was lurking behind the Japanese army, was ordered to rest on the spot. According to the order sent by Hu Biao, their regiment rested in the middle of the night. Wait for the second half of the night, and then launch an attack on the Japanese position, and meet the colonial army that has broken through!
