"Onward! Forward! Forward! Our team is facing the sun, stepping on the land of the motherland, shouldering the hope of the nation, we are an invincible force・・・・・・"

On the various roads leading from Yunnan to Burma, military flags are hunting, soldiers are everywhere, and passionate and majestic songs are constantly floating in the mountains, and the people of western Yunnan have never been so elated as today. In the middle of the road www.biquge.info, there is a truck full of young Chinese soldiers, with heavy artillery towing behind it, and on both sides of the road are infantry marching in a single column on foot. They were all dressed in grass-green military uniforms, and their morale was like a rainbow and they marched all the way south.

It is no wonder that the people of western Yunnan are so excited, for many years, they have only seen the foreigners' army flaunting their might on Chinese soil, going in and out, bullying the Chinese on Chinese soil as if they were visiting their own back garden, when have they ever seen the Chinese army go abroad? Now that he finally has such a mighty and majestic army, he can raise his eyebrows in the future.

To say that for this dispatch, the most excited and excited people belong to those border people of all ethnic groups scattered in the border areas, and among them, the head of the Lili tribe, Le Moduo, and the head of the Jingpo tribe, Yao Zhongke, are the most. Their ancestors had lived here for generations, and they lived and rested at sunrise, but when the British came, their peaceful life was completely shattered. Therefore, when the British army invaded Pianma, they first insisted on the front line, and it was the people of all ethnic groups on the border led by the Lili and Jingpo who carried out armed resistance. At this moment, how can they not be excited when they see their own army breaking out of the country and recovering the lost territory?

"We are the children of the people, we are the armed forces of the people..." In the midst of the crowd of farewells, a middle-light man sang the military song of the Southwest Army in a low voice.

As a senior reporter of the "Declaration," Liao Chenghong, who has been in Yunnan for more than half a month, once heard the statement issued by the Southwest Autonomous Government, relying on his sense of smell as a senior media person and his previous understanding of the Communist Progressive Party, he deeply felt that it was not easy for him to rush all the way from Kunming to Tengchong. Originally, he was going to rush to Lushui, but as soon as he arrived in Tengchong, the counterattack war had already begun.

Like most people in China, Liao Chenghong has a strong curiosity about the fast-rising Communist Party. They both belong to the camp of the revolutionary party, but the actions of the Kuomintang and the Communist Progressive Party are completely different. The Communist Party is typical of talking less and doing more, which can be seen from the busy construction sites along the way, the enthusiastic people, and what they have seen and heard along the way; The Kuomintang, on the other hand, is a typical empty mouth full of empty artillery, and big words and clichés are flying all over the sky.

And it is precisely because of this curiosity that Liao Chenghong came to the southwest alone to explore the birthplace of the Communist Party after applying to Shi Liangcai, the new general manager of the "Declaration".

After crossing the high mountains, you can count the border and set foot on the territory of Myanmar. On both sides of the border, there are two completely different worlds, on the north side of the Chinese people, singing and dancing to see off their soldiers, while on the south side there are only a few Burmese standing sparsely watching the excitement.

Meng'a is an ordinary town in China on the Yunnan-Burma border in the Linjiang region of Yunnan Province, and since the beginning of the border war, the peace of the town was quickly broken by the coming and going of soldiers. And since the offensive of the troops went smoothly and captured several cities in Burma along the way, Luo Peijin set up the headquarters of his 4th Division here.

"Although our army has been overwhelming all the way and has captured several cities, the enemy is only about a regiment to destroy. For the British army, the size of the two divisions in front of us, it was far from achieving the goal of inflicting heavy losses on its troops. According to the information we have obtained, a division of the Anglo-Indian army that we are facing has gradually begun to shrink towards Kulashio, and a division of the Anglo-Burmese army has withdrawn south to the line of Dagao. Although the cities of Lashio and Tago are well stocked, the British army has become a frightened bird, and as long as we deploy properly and act quickly, we will surely win a great victory. The new chief of staff, Guo Songling, pointed to the map.

Speaking of Guo Songling, we have to talk about his resume. Guo Songling, whose name is Maochen, is a native of Liaoning. In his early years, he graduated from the Fengtian Army Accelerated School and the Beiyang Army Second Town Suiying School with excellent results. When he served as the commander of the Fengtian Defense Army, because of his rigorous leadership and diligence in his duties, he won the appreciation of Zhu Qinglan, the commander of the army, and later Zhu Qinglan was transferred to the Sichuan New Army, and Guo Songling entered Sichuan with him. Later, when the revolution broke out and the Communist Party entered Sichuan, Guo Songling at that time had been promoted to the position of battalion commander. Because of the surrender of Sichuan Governor Zhao Erfeng, like many officers of the same level, Guo Songling also defected to the Communist Party.

Then by chance, Guo Songling began to enter Xiao Mubai's eyeliner. For this young soldier known as "Guo Devil" in the original time and space, Xiao Mubai still has a good impression. Just when Xiao Mubai was thinking about how to arrange him, it happened that because the former chief of staff Zheng Kaiwen was transferred to the post of commander of the 10th Division because of his outstanding performance, there was a vacancy in the post of chief of staff of the 4th Division. Naturally, Guo Songling, who was very optimistic about Xiao Mubai, officially took over the position under his recommendation.

Luo Peikin nodded, expressing satisfaction with the new chief of staff. This person is worthy of Chairman Xiao's favor, with clear thinking, quick response, and can find the generals of the fighter from the clues.

"Myanmar is mountainous and jungled, and it is difficult to form a dense defensive line. After all, we are fighting across borders, and it is extremely difficult to replenish supplies, so it is better to say that food can be collected locally, but ammunition and military supplies are impossible. Political Commissar Zhang Nailiang also shook his head with a wry smile.

"Order Huang Yucheng of the 10th Regiment to show his elite momentum, don't procrastinate, and immediately march towards Lashio, and be sure to give me the complete annihilation of India and the occupation of Lashio within two days." After a long groan, Luo Peijin finally spoke, "Order the 11th Regiment and the 12th Regiment to consolidate the defensive line after annihilating the British and Burmese troops in Dagao, and deploy them in situ to guard against the British army heading north from Yangon-Taunggyi." ”

"Division commander, Lashio is surrounded by mountains, and it is not conducive to attacking, and only one regiment is attacking, is the strength too weak? And there is only a half-crippled Anglo-Burmese army on the front line of Dagao, and the British defense of Taunggyi is even more empty. Obviously, Guo Songling didn't understand the meaning of why Luo Peijin made such an arrangement.

Regarding Guo Songling's rhetorical question, Luo Peijin didn't care, but said with a smile: "Maochen, although Lashio is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a British and Indian division to defend, but the combat quality of the soldiers in this department is low, and the heavy weapons are scarce, and their combat strength is only the level of a regiment. And Dagao is different, although now there is only a half-crippled Anglo-Burmese division, but we cannot ignore the replenishment ability of its rear. You must know that Rangoon is a large port city in Burma, and it is necessary that the reinforcements drawn by the British army will land here. ”

"Thank you for your advice." Guo Songling is colorful.

When Luo Peijin said in his speech, Guo Songling should have figured it out no matter how stupid he is, not to mention that he is not a stupid person. Compared with Luo Peijin, what he lacks at this time is just a problem of vision in a high position.

Cai's front-line headquarters was still set up in Baoshan, and the 30,000 Chinese troops marched from Yunnan into Burma by three routes, and the offensive was swift and invincible. After the 18th Regiment of the 6th Division conquered Myitkyina, Huang Yucheng's 10th Regiment also lived up to the high expectations of the division commander Luo Peijin, and successfully captured Lashio within two days.

Subsequently, the various units of the Chinese army began to boldly divide their forces, marching all the way along the communication lines in Burma, attacking and plundering the entire territory of northern Burma. The British army was losing ground and could barely hold off the Chinese offensive by relying on rivers and swampy forests. Within a week, all of northern Myanmar had fallen into Chinese hands.

The British troops who lost their armor and lost their armor along the road were all chased and beaten by the Chinese troops who entered the country to fight. After destroying the road traffic along the way, the remnants of the British army hastily withdrew to Mandalay, Taunggyi and other cities in south-central Burma, and some of them even planned to trap coastal cities such as Yangon. They were really scared by the Chinese squadron, not to mention the heavy artillery shell that can reimburse dozens of people, that is, the rifle in their hands, compared with other people's, it is not even as good as a burning stick, the continuous firepower output, the kind of sky-breaking bullet rain, they don't want to see it anymore.

The situation in Myanmar was in a full-fledged crisis, but the British government in London was still undecided.
