Chapter 213 must be fought

Watching Zhang Zhang go away, Zhang Ziwen also walked into the warehouse of the British army.

As soon as he entered the warehouse, Zhang Ziwen wanted to scold his mother, it was not that the British army had emptied the warehouse, but that the warehouse was full of weapons.

Zhang Ziwen picked up a rifle, which was the most used Lee Field rifle in the British army, and there were also a large number of M6 handleless grenades.

Dai Anlan said directly: "With such a sophisticated and large number of weapons, the British army did not dare to fight, and it was simply inferior to a miscellaneous army."

The generals and colonels present denounced the cowardice and incompetence of the British army, but Zhang Ziwen knew a little bit about the inside story.

The reason why the British army was not able to fight was only because they wanted to hold not Burma but India.

In this way, it is better to consume troops in Burma than to gather heavy troops and the Burma-India border and wait for the Japanese army to attack.

Dai Anlan didn't care about the actions of the British army in his heart, but worried that the British army would not "fund the enemy" on the front line.

And the British army did this, and in Rangoon, the British army only burned the supplies aided by the United States, and the weapons and ammunition in their own warehouses were directly left to the Japanese because the Japanese were chasing too fiercely and fighting too quickly.

Dai Anlan shook off the thoughts in his head and said, "Zheng Tingji, convene the regimental commanders of Ye Daxi's two regiments to hold a meeting together."

Because of the train, only one regiment of the 200 division went out of Tonggu, and Zhang Ziwen only brought one battalion and teaching team.

The British army retreated too quickly, and the defense was not explained clearly, and the meeting was not held until ten o'clock in the evening after everyone had finished eating.

Dai Anlan sat on the throne and said, "Judging by the attitude of the British, the Japanese invaders are close at hand, and there will be a fierce battle with the ancient times. It was also the first time that our expeditionary force had confronted the Japanese invaders in Burma, so we had to be fully prepared and not have any illusions. Everyone has seen the situation in Tonggu, and if you have any ideas, please let us know at the meeting. ”

Zhang Ziwen has not received the news yet, which means that the Japanese army should have at least one day before attacking Tonggu.

Zheng Tingjian was the first to express his thoughts, and he pointed out sharply: "It can be seen from the attitude of withdrawing from the ancient British army: they asked our army to enter Burma, not to fight side by side with us against the Japanese invaders, but to use us as a shield so that they can retreat calmly!"

Dai Anlan closed his eyes, this is already obvious, but now he can't say it clearly, Zheng Tingjian said that Guo Qi and several regiment leaders also expressed their anger.

Dai Anlan opened his eyes, straightened his body and said: "Don't complain, everyone, the British army is indeed using us as a shield, but once we come, we will be safe." No matter where the Japanese are, we will fight, even if it is decades later. In addition, if the Japanese army is allowed to control Southeast Asia, the situation in our country will be even more erosive. That's why I'm determined to fight the Japanese invaders in Tonggu, and I don't have to say anything else. This is the first battle we fought abroad, and it is the first time in hundreds of years that our dignified China has handed out the sword soldiers out of the land of China. I have only one request for this battle, I ask everyone to face the battle with the determination to die, if there is a person who is ineffective in combat, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The 200 divisions had a total of five regiments, one motorized infantry regiment, one engineer regiment, and three infantry regiments with one armored battalion.

Lin Chengxi is the head of the motorized infantry regiment and has always been regarded as Dai Anlan's "own son", so he dared to say that this time he was the first to stand up and speak, saying:

"Now the enemy situation is unknown, it is a blind man's war; The flanks of our army are empty, and the backup has not yet arrived, and it is a lone army to go deep, which is taboo for soldiers!"

Li Shuzheng, the commander of the engineering regiment, did not show weakness, and also stood up to speak:

"The ancient fortifications are not perfect, and there are many places that must be reinforced, otherwise it will be difficult to resist the Japanese attack."

Dai Anlan waved his hand irritably, and he almost roared.

"Sit down—sit down! The military seat has arrived in Lashio, and the headquarters is being set up. The new 22nd and 96th Divisions soon came into motion. The Sixth Army came one after another, and the Sixty-sixth Army will also arrive one after another and enter the battle, with a total strength of no less than 100,000.

The fortifications were not strong and could be reinforced while fighting. In short, the current conditions are like this, the war must be fought, and nonsense will not help. We can only settle for the sake of ugliness and deal with the Japanese invaders under the current conditions!

As for the blind man's battle, it may not be possible, Brother Zhang's teaching team has also seen it along the way, it is suitable for fighting in the mountains, and now they have all gone out to investigate the situation. ”

After saying that, Dai Anlan glanced at the chief and deputy commanders of several infantry regiments sitting there. However, they lowered their eyes one by one, obviously refusing to express their position, and even Guo Qi, who Peng Bisheng valued the most, bowed his head and was silent, Dai Anlan couldn't help but slap the table and shouted:

"What, all bears? Is this like the soldiers of the 200 divisions who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, and they sent us here to hide under the umbrella of foreigners and pose for the Japanese to see, and whoever is vague immediately proposes it, I will send a special car to send him back to China!"

Zhang Ziwen saw that Dai Anlan was really angry, and hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Dai, the two hundred senior brothers are all brothers who were born and died, how can they be afraid of Japanese devils, but I am just a little worried in my heart."

After Zhang Ziwen finished speaking, he glanced at Gao Jiren and Guo Qi, and Gao Jiren immediately said: "Yes, don't worry about saying it boldly." If you have any opinions, you can speak up and discuss them together. The meaning of the division seat is to be based on fighting this battle, and you should also speak based on fighting this battle. Our 200 divisions will not produce a single misbreed, nor will there be a deserter. ”

Guo Qi still didn't speak, but Huang Jingsheng, a lieutenant colonel and deputy head of the regiment next to him, stood up and said impassionedly:

"The meaning of the division is very clear that the conditions are like this, but this battle must be fought, and we have no choice. I can't think of any reason why the commission lined up my 200 divisions to enter Burma as the vanguard force, except for the good and brave fighting of my 200 divisions, from the moment we entered Burma, the commission held great hopes for my 200 divisions, hoping that we would stabilize the situation in Burma and allow more supplies to return to China through the Yunnan-Burma highway, UU read books to support the brothers on the front line, so how can we let the commission down?

The conditions are difficult, but Commander Zhang's powerful detachment also has several thousand people, and there is also an elite teaching team, I don't believe that we, the elite of the army, will not be able to contain Tonggucheng.

When the Whampoa Military Academy was established, the Father of the Nation talked in his speech about the Guangzhou Uprising on 29 March in Xinhai year, when there were 50,000 or 60,000 Qing soldiers in Guangzhou, but only a few hundred revolutionaries, only 300 stormtroopers with weapons, Qing soldiers with spears and cannons, and revolutionaries with only pistols and bombs.

The revolutionaries attacked the Yamen of Taiwan and drove out the governor of Liangguang, although the 72 martyrs died, and achieved such a result with 300 to 60,000, which can be described as a great success! The Father of the Nation called on Whampoa students not only to be a hundred and a thousand, but also to fire at the great powers and warlords with an unstoppable momentum! Two Eastern Crusades, swearing to the Northern Expedition, and seizing the pass will be like a bamboo!

Today, the heavy duty of our Whampoa soldiers is to fight against Japan, and we must carry forward the fearless spirit of the revolutionary martyrs and fire at the Japanese invaders with an unstoppable momentum!"

Zhang Ziwen also applauded, this guy is a talent, he pulled the matter above the righteousness at once, and put everyone on the cart, and now Dai Anlan has to fight even if he doesn't want to.
