I have to admit that Terauchi Shouichi's mind is very clear, even under the premise that the situation is so complicated, he still accurately captured the fighters brought in the late stage of the battlefield, which proves that the special operations division will not be easy to advance.

But he still agreed with the views of Jun Imamura and Tada Jun - Jiang Haoran wants to fight Myitkyina, the reason is very simple, the serious shortage of supplies for the expeditionary force is the top priority at present, if Jiang Haoran does not return to China by going to the Savage Mountain, or retreating west to India, he must first solve this problem, although he can't get the food and materials he wants from the imperial army, but the most important thing is that Myitkyina has the only airport in northern Burma, and with this airport, the expeditionary force can be completely replenished by air, Then use the Irrawaddy River to fight against the imperial army, and as long as it holds out for two months, it will be completely able to drag the arrival of domestic reinforcements. In two months' time, the rainy season in Burma will arrive as scheduled, and the roaring Inovady River will become a natural barrier separating the imperial army from the expeditionary force.

Although the situation was very unclear, after losing air supremacy, reconnaissance planes could not be dispatched, and he knew nothing about the actions of the expeditionary force, Terauchi Shouichi still made a quick decision and immediately ordered all the 55th Divisions in Mangshi to go to the Hukang River Valley, and the 38th Division in Wan Town immediately moved behind Myitkyina and the Hukang River Valley, ready to support the two divisions at any time, once Jiang Haoran's expeditionary force launched an attack on Myitkyina. The 33rd Division immediately launched an attack on the Hukang River Valley, and then Yingduo's 2nd Division immediately set out from Khommarin to Mengguan, cooperating with the 33rd Division to outflank the expeditionary force in a roundabout way on both flanks.

?????? At about five o'clock in the afternoon, on the road from the Hukang River valley to Myitkyina, the new 38th Division was marching rapidly, although the road was winding in the jungle, but the woods were dense and impermeable, and the heat was unbearable, and the soldiers were out of breath, and although it was a road, it was very difficult to walk through the potholes, but fortunately, it was not the rainy season, and it was even more difficult to walk an inch on such a road, soaked by the rain.

The division commander Sun Liren sat on the jeep and staggered, feeling that his body was about to fall apart, so he simply jumped out of the car and walked.

As soon as his feet landed, a staff officer hurried over from the back of the line, saying that the army commander had lost his temper and scolded the new 38th Division for walking like a snail, and when would it arrive at Myitkyina at this speed.

Sun Liren snorted coldly and scolded: "Damn, he said it lightly, how can it be fast to search and advance in such a large area?" ”

scolded and scolded, but Sun Liren looked at his watch, and still ordered the signal corps to notify the search team in front to speed up the progress, and when he encountered the Burmese, he didn't need to be verbose, and killed him directly. Ensuring the secrecy of this operation is related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force, and extraordinary measures can only be taken.

In this attack on Myitkyina, the new 38th Division served as the main attack of the first echelon, Sun Liren also felt a lot of pressure, this time he faced the 16th Division of the Japanese army's permanent division, and the attack went smoothly and fortunately, although the three divisions of the entire 66th Army acted together, but who knows if they did not open up the situation, whether the two divisions behind could come up in time, and a little delay would put them in a desperate situation.

However, fortunately, this time the howitzer regiment directly under the Fifth Army was temporarily under his command, and he should still be able to hold down the position at the critical moment.

In a moment, the signal corps reported to him that the artillery regiment was less than ten miles behind them.

Hearing this news, Sun Liren secretly sighed, if there is an artillery in the siege of the city, he will have confidence, not to mention that it is still a 150mm howitzer, no matter how bad it is, it can break down a few front teeth of the Japanese army. It's a pity that although the 38th Division has six regiments with a strength of nearly 12,000 troops, there are only three regiments of his descendants, and three regiments are in the hands of Deputy Division Commander Yu Xueqi.

Just when Sun Liren was in reverie, Tang Chuyi, the newly appointed head of the 122nd Regiment, ran over out of breath, wiped the beads of sweat on his face, and said, "Master, the brothers really can't walk, take a break and drink some water before leaving?" ”

Tang Chuyi was the officer who blocked Jiang Haoran from going up the mountain at the foot of Geyue Mountain, but now he has been promoted to regiment commander, and he is a descendant personally promoted by Sun Liren in the 38th Division.

"Rest, you fucking think beautifully, the commander still thinks we're slow, and when the search team in front of us speeds up, our speed will also be raised."

"Ahh Tang Chuyi's face suddenly turned into a bitter gourd.

Sun Liren glanced at Tang Chu and said, "Don't worry, there is Lewa not far ahead, and it is only more than thirty miles away from Myitkyina, so we will rest in Lewa for three hours before setting off, and launch an attack on Myitkyina on time at six o'clock in the morning tomorrow." ”

"Really?" Although he only had three hours to rest, Tang Chuyi was also very excited.

Sun Liren ignored his happiness and said: "First year of junior high school, tomorrow's main attack task is handed over to you, you kid can't drop the chain with Lao Tzu, you must play the prestige of our new 38th division, don't let Jiang Haoran look down on us?" In the command headquarters, he didn't squeeze us, you kid must fight with Lao Tzu. ”

"Don't worry, Shizuo, I won't embarrass you, but you have to keep an eye on Yu Date wherever he is, don't let us press him and watch the show behind us, then this battle can't be fought?"

"Yu Date" is talking about the deputy division commander Yu Xueqi, because he is Dai Li's person, so the people on Sun Liren's side secretly call him Yu Da's spy.

Sun Liren said "um" and agreed, but there were really ripples in his heart.

Tang Chuyi chattered endlessly and continued: "Master, I really didn't expect Jiang Haoran to become our head seat, if you want to say that you still have the foresight, you told us not to use guns with Jiang Haoran on Geyue Mountain, otherwise we will be good-looking now?" I heard that he is a person who has revenge, the people of the Dai Mansion killed one of his orderlies, and he was able to transfer out the entire Dai Mansion spies and annihilate them all, and only he dared to do this awesome thing. ”

"Humph! If you had used a gun with his Snow Wolf Special Combat Team, do you think you would still be standing here? I don't know where it was buried, haven't you heard that his team can turn Wuhan upside down? ”

Tang Chu pouted and said: "I've heard about it, but I always feel that this matter is not as mysterious as the rumors outside, after all, it is a surprise attack by a small detachment, and it is impossible to clash head-on with the Japanese army. ”
