At about ten o'clock in the morning, Yingdo, the headquarters of the expeditionary force.

Jiang Haoran sat on the chair like a dog, grinning and smiling happily.

The victory of the Mi army in Malacca had already reached here, and even before the Mi army's action, Jiang Haoran had already received the news that when the Mi army's planes attacked the Japanese army, the 40th Army Flying Group and the 14th Air Group also immediately launched their actions.

More than 300 fighters took off from the Baoshan base and nearby airfields and arrived in the skies over Yingduo at the time when the Japanese carrier-based planes withdrew from the battlefield to help.

Because in today's bombing mission, the Japanese army has included Homarin in the bombing target to clear the obstacles for the 18th Division in advance. The skies over the entire Yingduo area were full of Japanese planes, and in addition to the naval carrier-based planes, it is estimated that all the planes of the Japanese Fifth Flying Group were dispatched.

After the flight group and the 14th air group of the 40th Army arrived in the airspace of Burma, they immediately divided their troops into three routes, all the way to Homalin, all the way to the southeast to intercept the retreat of the Japanese army, and the middle road to the front line of Meng Gong, Yingduo, and Sidang. The long car in the middle goes straight in, and the wings are outflanked.

Soon, fierce battles were fought in the sky over Myanmar, with the sound of machine guns and cannons endlessly, and the sound of volley explosions was even more shocking.

Since the Japanese navy's carrier-based aircraft withdrew from air combat, the flight team of the Sino-Militane coalition has been significantly superior to the Japanese army in terms of the number of planes and in terms of performance, although the pilot's skills may be slightly inferior to the Japanese army, but the superiority of the air radar aircraft can completely make up for this; no matter which direction the Japanese planes attack or retreat from, the radar planes can detect it in time and immediately mobilize nearby fighters to intercept or support. It is clear that it is no longer at the same level, and it is faster and faster to act.

In less than an hour, the Japanese planes were completely defeated, and the 500 planes of various types of the Fifth Flying Group took part in the air battle, and it is estimated that less than half of them fled back, while the Sino-Michiel Coalition Flying Team lost no more than 40 fighters.

At this point, Chiang Haoran completely controlled the air supremacy of Burma, and it was impossible for the Japanese army to recapture it in a short time.

In the next second of regaining air supremacy, Jiang Haoran immediately ordered Ye Zhaofeng to go all the way down the Inovady River to find out all the Japanese inland river guns and eliminate them one by one.

At the same time, more than eighty helicopter gunships launched a frenzied attack on the Japanese 2nd Division at the front of Sidang. Of course, it was only to repel the enemy on the defensive line and reduce the pressure on the 200th Division on the front line, and there was no large force to follow up and launch a full-scale attack on the enemy, after all, the second division of the Japanese army was also strong, and the strength of the expeditionary force on the defensive line was not enough to achieve the ability to take the initiative to attack.

Because the Sino-Mimetry coalition regained air supremacy with a thunderous momentum, so that the expeditionary force completely bid farewell to the threat of being bombed by the Japanese army from time to time, all the soldiers saw that the sky of Yingduo was exceptionally blue, and their mood was much happier, and there was a round of helicopter attack on the front, which forced the Japanese army back for several miles, and the soldiers inside and outside were even more jubilant.

Even from time to time there was a burst of heartfelt laughter in the command headquarters, and the officers were of course talking about the air battle just now; for a long time, the officers and men of the Nationalist Army have not been wreaked havoc by Japanese planes, and today they have seen Japanese planes crash and flee under the attack of our planes, and the long-standing grievances have been released at this moment, and this feeling is indescribable.

The long-term depression made everyone's nerves tense, and Jiang Haoran was happy to let everyone relax, although the noise made the headquarters a bit like a vegetable market, but Jiang Haoran did not come forward to stop it, standing alone by the windowsill, looking at the green outside the window in a daze, no one knew what he was thinking.

"Soza, what are you thinking?"

Chief of Staff Huang Zhuo appeared beside Jiang Haoran, handed Jiang Haoran a cigarette, and asked with a smile.

"Hehe, you didn't think about anything?" Jiang Haoran glanced at Huang Jie, took the cigarette and said with a smile.

The two lit cigarettes, stood at the window and spit out the clouds, Jiang Haoran pointed out the window, and said casually: "Turning over this mountain is Ruigu, right?" ”

"Yes, over this mountain and across the Inovady River is Ruigu, why did you suddenly think of where?" Huang Jieqi said.

Jiang Haoran suddenly asked thoughtlessly: "You said that if you build a steel bridge from Yingduo, how long will it take?" ”

"Build a steel bridge to Rigu?" Huang Jie was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "What are you kidding, let's not say that the Irrawaddy River is flowing rapidly, and both sides are cliffs, how easy is it to build a steel bridge, on the other side of the river, from Ruigu to Bamo, and then to Wan Town and Longling, at least four divisions of the Japanese army have been hoarded, and they can let you build a steel bridge on the Inovady River?" ”

Jiang Haoran glanced at Huang Jie and said, "I didn't ask you whether the Japanese army was willing or not, I asked you how long you think it will take to build such a bridge." ”

Huang Jie seemed to be a little uncomfortable with Jiang Haoran's whimsy, but he still answered his question, "The Huitong Bridge has been built for more than a year, and the Nu River is not as wide as the Inovady River, so I guess it will take more than a year to two years, right?" ”

Jiang Haoran shook his head and said: "The Huitong Bridge is not good, the load is only a few tons, and it can barely cross the truck, what I want is a steel bridge that can cross the tank, not that kind of gadget." ”

"Ahem, ahem!" Huang Jie was obviously shocked by Jiang Haoran's words, and inhaled all the cigarettes into his lungs, choking him so much that he didn't recover for a long time.

Jiang Haoran, who had no heart and lungs, had no patience anymore, and said: "Forget it, asking you is tantamount to asking in vain, I still have to find a Mao worker for this matter?" After speaking, he left Huang Jie, who was still coughing and coughing with a red face and a thick neck, waved his hand and left.

Of course, Mao Gong refers to Mao Yisheng, the chief engineer of the 331 base and the Baoshan base, and this kind of thing is really not a second person except to ask him. However, at this time, the Mao workers were still far away in Baoshan, and if they wanted to ask at this time, they could only ask through the radio. No one knows why Jiang Haoran suddenly remembered this stubble at this moment, this matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with the current battle situation, even in the long run, it seems to be too urgent.

Just when Jiang Haoran ordered Mei Xiang to draft a telegram for him, Leng Rushuang hurriedly came, bringing a telegram sent back by Liu Bao, the telegram reported that they found the forward troops of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army fifty miles away from Homalin, and the Japanese troops were riding bicycles and advancing rapidly along the east bank of the Wanjiang River, and they asked whether to block or let the Japanese forward troops pass.
