A military meeting, which ended in a quarrel between Chen Dao and Wavell, failed to reach any consensus. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Everyone walked out of the conference room, and Wavell, Eisenhower, and others hurried back to the headquarters and sent a telegram to the country.

Chen Dao and Admiral Batista looked at each other and smiled goodbye to each other.

Chen Dao walked up to the open-top Mercedes-Benz and said to the two beautiful secretaries behind him: "In the past few days, you two have been chattering and complaining behind my back, saying that you didn't join the army to serve tea and pour water to sort out documents. Today, I give you permission to go to the battlefield, and when you return, you will report to the mountain division of Prince Eugen. However, as a responsible superior, before you set out, I want to take you to experience the horrors of the battlefield, so that you know that the battlefield is not so warm and veinous, but more terrible than hell. ”

Knowing that their wish was about to be fulfilled, the two beautiful young and beautiful secretaries jumped into the VW82 barrel car behind them, followed Chen Dao's Mercedes Benz, and drove deep into the city of Kolkata.

"Where are we going? Are there any Japanese in the city? Ensign Jonge asked.

"It may be that there were Japanese prisoners captured in past battles." Ensign Denisha said.

The barrel car followed the Mercedes all the way around, and Ensign Denisa suddenly sniffed, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.

"What smells so bad? Did you fart? ”

Ensign Jonge glared and reached out to Ensign Denisa to his waist.

"You're farting."

The two lieutenants screamed and screamed, each holding a handkerchief to his nose.

The convoy finally stopped by a wide river, Chen Dao jumped out of the car, walked to the barrel car, and said to the two beautiful female ensigns: "Misses, welcome to the Ganges, hell is beckoning to you. ”

The two beautiful secretaries stepped out of the barrel cart, covered their noses, frowned, and followed Chen Dao to the Ganges, with Major Lorenz and the little brother Sharon walking at the rear.

As the group approached the Ganges, the two beautiful secretaries slowly slowed down, their bodies stiffened in place, their mouths slightly open, and their frightened eyes swept over the river.

The gray-yellow water of the Ganges River flowed in front of them, and on the left side of the river in front of the two of them, there was a hill of garbage piled up, exuding a foul smell.

Not far from the garbage dump, on the surface of the river, floats the body of an Indian sacred cow.

On the corpse, two crows jumped around, pecking at the carrion on the corpse of the sacred cow.

But that's not the point, another corpse floats down the rushing river, and from a distance, it looks like a frog with its white belly drying on its back to the sky.

Chen Dao "kindly" took off the binoculars on his chest and handed them to Second Lieutenant Jonge.

"Look closely, what is that?"

Under the pressure of Chen Dao's majestic gaze, Second Lieutenant Qiongge looked at the river with a telescope, and after a few seconds, Second Lieutenant Qiongge put down the telescope and turned his back.

"Vomit ・・・・・・"

Ensign Jonge clutched his stomach and vomited.

In the distance, there was not a frog floating on the surface of the river at all, but a whitened corpse blistered by the river, covered with black spots, and countless flies crawling all over the corpse.

"Ah・・・・・・h

Seeing the true face of the floating corpse, Second Lieutenant Denisha did not last any longer, and vomited with Second Lieutenant Jonge.

Chen Dao gestured to Major Lorenz behind him, and Major Lorenz ran to the side of the car, took out two bottles of Sprite from the car, and gave one bottle to each of the two beautiful secretaries.

When the two beautiful ensigns rinsed their mouths, Major Lorenz walked up to Chen Dao and whispered, "Are you too heavy?" ”

"This is the price that must be paid for growth, and if you adapt to the magnificent scenery of the Ganges, you can adapt to the tragic battlefield." Chen Dao said and turned his head to look at the two secretaries, and then said: "This is just the beginning, they can't bear it, I overestimate them." Let me see, is there anything more heavy? ”

After squinting his eyes and searching the river for a while, Chen Dao saw the two secretaries finish the first wave and said with a straight face: "You two, come here, look over there." ”

"I don't want to see it, let's go back." Second Lieutenant Jonge said with a sad face.

Chen Dao mercilessly rejected Second Lieutenant Jonge's request: "No, you must see, this is an order. ”

The two lieutenants had to look in the direction pointed by Chen Dao, and saw a small wharf on the other side of the river, where a crowd of people gathered in twos and threes.

"They actually wash their clothes and face in this river・・・・・・ and they drink the water from the river?"

Ensign Jonge saw what the crowd on the other side of the river was doing, and his little face was pale, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world.

"Laundry? That's not the point, I'm showing you the guy next to the laundry, the location of the black dog, and you take a closer look with a telescope. ”

Ensign Jonge had a premonition that the situation was not going to be good, and handed the telescope to Denissa.

"You read it first, tell me what it is after reading?"

Seeing that Ensign Jonge was unsympathetic and wanted to cause trouble, Denisha hurriedly flashed aside.

"I don't look at it, you watch it first."

Chen Dao stopped the two ensigns' pushing, and said with a cold face: "Both of you have to watch, and no one is allowed to escape." ”

Seeing Chen Dao staring at him with an unkind expression, Second Lieutenant Qiongge trembled and raised his binoculars to look at the location of the black dog on the other side of the river, and clearly saw that the black dog was gnawing on a corpse by the river.

The body was a woman, lying on her back on the shore, wearing an orange and white dress on the lower half of her body.

The black dog gnawed mercilessly, and the corpse's face revealed white bones on the left and right.

"Vomit ・・・・・"

Ensign Jonge shoved the binoculars to Denisha, pinched her throat and turned away, and began a second round of dark vomiting.

Seeing Chen Dao staring at her, Dinisha had to pick up the binoculars with tears in her eyes and look across the river・・・・・・

Seven or eight minutes later, the two beautiful ensigns helped each other back to the barrel car, and then leaned back on the back of their seats, staring blankly at the sky.

"Why didn't God come and save these people?" Denisha muttered.

"It's not under God's control, you can reminisce about the magnificent scenery here, and when you go back, I will treat you to a barbecue."

Chen Dao threw down a sentence and turned around and walked towards the Mercedes Benz.

In the evening of the same day, under Chen Dao's strict orders, the two second lieutenants ate a painful barbecue dinner, and then followed Chen Dao back to the Ramgarh military camp by train.

Ten days later, Chen Dao was notified.

Field Marshal Wavell was transferred back home, and he was succeeded by Lord Mountbatten of Great Britain.

Lord Mountbatten held the rank of Marshal of the Royal Navy and served as Governor-General of India and Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces.

On 15 January, Marshal Mountbatten arrived in Calcutta and immediately convened a new military conference in Calcutta.

At the beginning of the meeting, Marshal Mountbatten first made a few opening remarks, and then said: "I have studied the battle plan submitted by General Eisenhower, and I believe that the situation facing the Chinese allies is very serious, and we must attack as soon as possible.

The Chinese Expeditionary Force and the German Expeditionary Force were the Northern Route Army, which started from the Ledo region on the northern border and crossed the Hukang and Mong Gong valleys, aiming directly at Myitkyina, which was under the command of General Rosen. ”

Seeing Chen Dao nodding in agreement, Mountbatten continued: "The Southern Route Army takes Imphal as its starting point, under the command of British, American and Italian armies, and is commanded by General Eisenhower, whose goal is to attack the three divisions of the Japanese army on the front line of the Chindun River.

I will contact Mr. Chiang in China, and their troops will also work together, and all troops must be ready to leave on February 15 and attack by March 1 at the latest. ”

There was no ambiguity among the people present at the meeting, and they all agreed with Marshal Mountbatten's decision, Chen Dao knocked on the table, smiled and asked: "Mr. Marshal, in the Chinese art of war, there is a saying that there is a wind forest volcano, have you heard of it?" ”

"What is a windforest volcano? I do not know. Marshal Mountbatten shook his head and said.

"The wind forest volcano refers to the wind as fast, Xu as a forest, as aggressive as fire, and as immobile as a mountain, but in the previous battle to lose Burma, the British troops commanded by Field Marshal Wavell added a new definition to the four words."

"Oh? What is it? Mountbatten asked with interest.

Chen Dao first showed a gloomy smile to Mountbatten, and then said: "The retreat is as fast as the wind, outflanking Xu Rulin in a roundabout way, endangering the people and plundering like fire, and the friendly army is as immobile as a mountain. Of these four points, your army has done a very good job in retreating and moving forward and in the difficulties of friendly forces, which our Chinese allies are well aware of, and we hope that in the new battle, you will be able to put an end to this bad habit and not betray your comrades. ”

Marshal Mountbatten's face instantly fell, and Eisenhower's gaze circled vigilantly between Chen Dao and Mountbatten, and then looked at Stilwell, who was sitting beside him.

The British still have this vice? After returning by himself, it is necessary to ask how the British sold their teammates in the previous battles.

Field Marshal Mountbatten said unhappily: "General Rosen, I don't know why you are so prejudiced against our army, but I want to say that in the future battles, we can only achieve victory if we are sincerely united." ”

"Well, hopefully I'm just biased." Chen Dao said.

The details were discussed again, and at the end of the meeting, Marshal Mountbatten invited everyone to a sumptuous dinner.

The next day, everyone set off to return to the station.

After the launch date of the operation was determined, two brigades of the German Prince Eugen Mountain Division, the 1st Airborne Division, and the 101st Special Air Service Regiment set out one after another and went to the Ledo area of Assam, India, to join up with the new 38th and 22nd divisions of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which had already been stationed there.

Chen Dao, together with Stilwell and others, relocated the headquarters to the Ledo area.

On 28 January, just as the Allied forces were rearming themselves in preparation for the upcoming Burma campaign, bad news reached Stilwell's ears and then spread throughout the Allied forces.

The commander-in-chief of the German Expeditionary Force, General Heinz von Rosen, was unfortunately confronted by Japanese snipers while surveying the terrain on the front line of Ledo, and was seriously injured and hospitalized, and his life was in critical condition.
