Chapter 202 Heart-to-heart

When the winter sun reached its highest point, Zhang Ziwen also embarked on the journey with the second and fourth battalions.

Mao Wenguang has finally hung up the rank of lieutenant colonel as he wished, and his hind legs are like Lu Wenqing, following Zhang Ziwen on the left and on the right.

"Lu Wenqing, pass the order, rest in Huishui today, set off at six o'clock tomorrow, and must arrive in Anshun before four o'clock in the afternoon."

Lu Wenqing ran to arrange things, and Mao Wenguang followed with acquaintances.

It was windy in Guizhou in winter, so Zhang Ziwen didn't sleep well all night, and set foot on the road with dark circles under his eyes the next morning.

When he arrived in Anshun, Zhang Ziwen rested for a day, and it was not until noon the next day that the herald ran into the headquarters.

"Commander, our regiment has already discovered the troops of the newly formed 38th Division on the outskirts of Anshun, and the brothers have gone up to inquire about it.

The newly formed 38th Division is followed by 200 divisions, and it is estimated that they will rest overnight in Anshun this evening. ”

Zhang Ziwen didn't mind that the three days that Dai Anlan said became four days, so he waited.

By the time the sun went down, the 38th Division was already stationed in the small Anshun with the supplementary regiment.

Many of the brothers in the 38th Division were fellow villagers, and they even came out of a recruit company, so the two units got along very well.

At this time, Dai Anlan entered the city with two hundred divisions, and Zhang Ziwen had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Dai Anlan farewell, he greeted him.

Dai Anlan saw Zhang Ziwen walking towards him, and waved to his adjutant.

When Zhang Ziwen arrived a year ago, he opened his mouth and said: "By passing on the order of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Zhang Ziwen is now appointed as the colonel commander of the Burmese guerrilla detachment and is under the command of guerrilla commander Huang Xiang."

Zhang Ziwen was a little puzzled, but he still took the order.

"Brother, let me tell you, this is clearly listening to Brother Huang Xiang, but you are the same colonel as him, so you only have to go with our two hundred divisions, don't bother with him."

Zhang Ziwen's first reaction was a pit, and his second reaction was that it was a big pit, but he had already gotten on the thief ship and could only pinch his nose and admit it.

"Come brother, you know that we are fighting in Burma, but there are some things you need to know, this is something that my adjutant has sorted out, you can take a look."

Zhang Ziwen turned the documents handed over by Dai Anlan.

The Chinese Expeditionary Force was organized on the basis of the Sino-British Military Democratic League, which was established in 1941.

After the outbreak of World War II in Europe in 1940 and the defeat of the British and French armies at Dunkirk on 4 June, the British Isles were in danger, and Britain wanted to borrow the great strength of the Chinese people's long-term war of resistance to support its military in the Far Eastern colonies, especially Burma (Burma), India (India), and Malaysia (Malaya), to save the crisis in the rear of the Far East.

At the same time, on the Chinese side, in order to achieve the final victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it was also necessary to ensure the last international transportation route of the Yunnan-Burma Road.

Therefore, from October 1940 onwards, Britain first opened the long-blockaded Yunnan-Burma Road, and then brewed the Sino-British Military Democratic Alliance.

In the spring of 1941, Britain invited the "China-Burma-India-Malaya Military Investigation Delegation" to Burma, India, and Malaya for military investigations.

After several consultations, on 23 December this year, the "Sino-British Agreement on Mutual Defense of the Yunnan-Burma Road" was signed, and the Sino-British military alliance was established.

According to the opinion of the China-Burma-India-Malaysia military inspection mission, the Sino-British military alliance should have been established long ago so that the squadron could have entered Burma as soon as possible to set up defenses.

Now our army can only go to Kunming and wait, waiting to enter Burma at any time.

Zhang Ziwen almost exploded after reading it, and he asked us to wait like dogs.

Zhang Ziwen couldn't help but feel a little worthless: "Senior Dai, isn't this our hot face sticking to our cold ass."

Dai Anlan was a little embarrassed, this metaphor was too explicit and a little difficult to answer.

"There's no way, don't talk about anything else, we have to work hard just on the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

Otherwise, not to mention the war, these armored vehicles will not be able to run, and if there are no bullets in the guns, then there is really no way. ”

It's not that Zhang Ziwen doesn't know this, it's just that Britain's attitude doesn't have any alliance posture at all, which is treating China as a dog.

Whoever wants to be a dog, no one wants to.

"Senior Commander Dai, why don't you see Deputy Senior Commander Peng?"

Dai Anlan laughed when he heard Zhang Ziwen in advance.

"Brother Peng is not the deputy division commander anymore, now he is the major general and deputy division commander of the 49th Division."

Zhang Ziwen thought about it, Huang Xiangdu, who he had never heard of at the beginning, became a colonel guerrilla commander, and it was reasonable for Peng Bi to give birth to 200 divisions to serve as a major general and division commander of other units.

"Brother doesn't have to sigh, this is not a great opportunity, as long as he makes military achievements this time, I believe that Chairman Jiang will not be stingy.

The number of a division, a major general, and the division commander are still given, as long as the Japanese are beaten out of Burma, if the chairman does not give it to you, I will give you the commander of the two hundred divisions, how about it. ”

"I can't take the position of Division Commander Dai, Division Commander Dai has not been promoted to army commander, how dare I be promoted to division commander."

Zhang Ziwen saw that Liao Yaoxiang's face was about to change at that moment, if he really took the next words, he would not be offended to death.

"Haha, you kid ......"

The group walked directly to the banquet arranged by Zhang Ziwen.

An hour ago, Zhang Ziwen had already sent someone to invite Sun Liren, the commander of the 38th Division, but he didn't know if he would come or not.

Zhang Ziwen walked into the room and saw a big man with a Chinese character face and the rank of major general on his shoulder.

"Master Sun, I've kept you waiting."

Dai Anlan pressed Zhang Ziwen's shoulder from behind and signaled not to care.

"Brother Liren, I couldn't drink one in Guiyang, borrow Brother Ziwen's field, let's drink one."

Dai Anlan didn't wait for Sun Liren to respond, and sat directly next to Sun Liren.

Zhang Ziwen had to sit down with him, and when the commanders of the regiments of the 200 divisions arrived, the lights were already on.

"Brother Liren, let me introduce you, this is Zhang Ziwen.

Brother Ziwen is the 103rd Division, You also know He Shaozhou, but I appreciate Brother Zhang, this time I took Brother Zhang into Myanmar, and even Chief He didn't give me a good face. ”

Speaking of He Yingqin, Sun Licai glanced at Zhang Ziwen, but under He Yingqin's hands, except for Guan Linhui, there are few who can fight.

Even He Shaozhou, who has studied in many places, is just a relational in the eyes of his Sun Liren.

I am here today to give face to this fierce general Dai Anlan, and Zhang Ziwen is a treater.

At least there is a glass to change on the wine table, because the next day there is going to Kunming, and no one is drunk.

"Brother, my brother can't stand you, but I can't help it."

On the way back for Dai Anlan and Zhang Ziwen, Dai Anlan suddenly said.

"The two hundred divisions have suffered heavy losses in several battles, and they are said to be elite, but in fact, they have lost half of their original combat strength.

This time into Myanmar, the elder brother still has to rely on you, I hope you don't hold a grudge against the elder brother, the elder brother you want will try his best to help you fight for it, but I really can't count what I said this afternoon. ”

Liao Yaoxiang was not there this time, but Zhang Ziwen did not admit it, and it was rare to be able to tell the truth to himself.

With the starlight and the northwest wind, the day passes again.
