On the afternoon of April 19, 1942, the news came that the newly formed 38th Division, under the leadership of division commander Sun Liren, deputy division commander Qi Xueqi and 113th Regiment commander Liu Fangwu, regained Ren'anqiang, and rescued more than 7,000 British soldiers and more than 500 captured British and Burmese officers and soldiers, American missionaries and journalists who were besieged by 2,000 Japanese troops for three days.

Wang Hanzhang's mind was much clearer at this time, and he knew that in view of the heavy casualties of the Japanese 33rd Division in the Battle of Ren'anqiang, General Sun Liren was ready to gather the whole division to counterattack the enemy in front of him, and at the same time reported the plan to Stilwell's headquarters, but unfortunately the British were frightened, not only did not cooperate, but fled quickly, and did not know the new 38th Division.

Of course, the most infuriating thing was that he also sent false information to the headquarters of the expeditionary force, which caused Wang Hanzhang's 200th division to run a 500-kilometer unjust road, delaying the time for a full three days, so the eastern front was defeated and retreated in order to provide timely support. The Japanese army calmly seized Lashio, and the main passage for the expeditionary force to return to China was cut off, and after the Japanese army occupied Lashio, it then went north to occupy Ba Mo and Myitkyina, and the way for the expeditionary force to return home was completely cut off.

On April 20, the British army really despicably and shamelessly sent false information to the headquarters of the expeditionary force, saying that they had encountered the Japanese army of Dagu and asked Stilwell to send reinforcements, as in history, as the only mechanized force in China, the 200th Division took on this important task.

On the morning of April 20, the 200th Division received an order to rush to the front line of Ren'anqiang to rescue the British army.

After Wang Hanzhang reported to the company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander, he immediately went to find Dai Anlan, although at first these Wang Hanzhang's bosses did not agree and wanted to report to them first, but there was time there, Wang Hanzhang repeatedly insisted on reporting to Dai Anlan first, and he was telling them when he came back, or they could go with him to listen.

Seeing Wang Hanzhang's anxious look, they agreed that Wang Hanzhang would go to Dai Anlan, but Dong Han, the commander of the 600th regiment, that is, the regiment where Wang Hanzhang was located, followed Wang Hanzhang to find Dai Anlan.

Dong Han was very afraid that Wang Hanzhang would do something out of the ordinary, so he wanted to come to the round when necessary, and he also wanted to know what Wang Hanzhang was going to say to the teacher.

With the leadership of the regiment leader, Wang Hanzhang did not encounter any trouble, and met Dai Anlan smoothly, looking at this anti-Japanese hero who will die soon, Wang Hanzhang felt a sadness in his heart, the people at the top made mistakes, and the consequences had to be borne by the people below, this is the sadness of the little people.

After Dong Han wanted Dai Anlan to salute, Wang Hanzhang also wanted Dai Anlan to salute, and Dai Anlan also wanted Wang Hanzhang to nod his head, and then said: "If you have anything to look for me, you can tell the regiment commander about small things, if you delay the military plane, you will have to deal with it by the warlord." Dai Anlan gave Wang Hanzhang a dismount at once, although he said it with a smile, but Wang Hanzhang knew that it was true.

Wang Hanzhang said: "Don't worry! Shizuo, my head is used to fight devils, but I don't have nothing to do to test military law when I am full. ”

Dai Anlan and Dong Han smiled, Dong Han didn't expect that there would be such a bold person under his hands, seeing that the division commander was not afraid, and made a little joke, Dong Han was stunned unconsciously.

Dai Anlan said: "Time is pressing, let's get down to business!" ”

Wang Hanzhang saluted again: "Yes," and then began to say: "Division, regiment, according to my analysis, the British obviously sent false information to the headquarters, and the British did this because they were frightened by the Japanese, the British let us go over just to let us take over their positions, so as to cover their escape to India, and the British occupy the center in Europe, Burma is dispensable, as long as there are hundreds of millions of people in one place, they can continue to provide supplies for Europe, So they didn't want to fight the Japanese to the death in Burma. ”

Dai Anlan and Dong Han didn't speak, they still looked at Wang Hanzhang, and Wang Hanzhang continued: "According to my judgment, from the perspective of the situation, if I am the commander of the devil, and now the defense of Lashio and Myitkyina is empty, then I will definitely attack here, Lashio is not only the logistics base of the expeditionary force, but also the main channel for the expeditionary force to return to the country, if this place is cut off, then we will not be able to return to China." Therefore, what we need to do now is not to go south to cooperate with the lies of the British, but to immediately go north to support Lashio, otherwise once it is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable, not only will the invasion of Burma fail, but at the same time, it is difficult to say how many of the 100,000 expeditionary troops will return to China alive in the end. ”

Dong Han said sharply: "Han Zhang, don't talk nonsense. ”

Wang Hanzhang said very respectfully: "Tuanza, don't be angry first, in fact, you and the division of our expeditionary force's predicament, including Chairman Jiang, know it well, and Chief Du also knows it in his heart, only Stilwell and Commander Luo don't understand." Needless to say, Commander Luo, he is a good man, and he was sent to coordinate by the commission, in order not to let the relationship between Stilwell and Chief Du become too stiff, and he can't do anything in the real war, he will only cater to Stilwell. And Stilwell is not ambitious in the United States, so he wants to show his strength in the expeditionary force, so he has always wanted to seize the military power of the expeditionary force, he took the set of things in the United States to Burma to use, in fact, the main military force in Burma is Chinese, but it is a British colony, he did not take into account the ideas of the two governments, so he actually does not understand China, nor does he understand the British, everything is too simple in his ideas, idealized, always think for the best, and do not plan for the worst, Therefore, it was easy to deceive the British. ”

Dai Anlan pondered for a while and said: "The soldier should take obedience to the order as his duty, since the above has ordered us to support the British army, then we must go, even if he deceives us, then we as allies have also fulfilled our due obligations, and the rest of the matter will be handled by the above, if we don't go, I'm afraid we will be manipulated." ”

Wang Hanzhang didn't expect Dai Anlan to be a diehard, but he couldn't yell at him, Wang Hanzhang didn't know what he thought, maybe it was really as he said, or was it a test of Wang Hanzhang? Wang Hanzhang was full of doubts, but now he could only be a very stubborn person who was Dai Anlan, so he could only try his best to convince him.

Wang Hanzhang said anxiously: "Master, is there any force in my analysis, or you don't understand, you know that I haven't read any books, lack of expression skills, if you have any questions, you can say it, what do you need me to do, you just say it, anyway, you must listen to me this time, if you make a mistake in judgment, if I don't die at that time, it's good to shoot me, as long as I can be the 100,000 brothers of the expeditionary force, it's worth killing me." ”

Dai Anlan didn't speak, but a middle-aged man wearing a major general's uniform on the side said, "Your name is Wang Hanzhang, right?" ”

Wang Hanzhang saluted solemnly and said, "Report to the chief, I am Wang Hanzhang," and then turned to smile and said: "You should be the deputy division commander General Gao Jiren, right?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded yes, and Wang Hanzhang immediately said: "Deputy division commander, you should persuade the division, this is related to the lives of 100,000 brothers in the expeditionary force, although everyone has long put life and death aside after becoming a soldier, but I think the deputy division commander doesn't want to die in vain, our life is a devil and there is no regret, if we are betrayed to death by the British, it will be more unjust than Dou E." ”

Gao Jiren smiled lightly: "Why are you so sure that the British are spreading false information, and you are not a British, right?" The British know about it and have something to say again. ”

Wang Hanzhang said: "Division Vice, you are a famous general in a hundred battles, since last year, we have negotiated with the British to jointly defend Burma, we have been ready for a long time, but the British have not let us station, if they actively cooperate with us at the beginning, Yangon will definitely still be in our hands now." Looking at the Battle of Tonggu and the series of battles in Burma before, which time was not the British holding us back? In fact, we should not ignore the relationship between countries, that is, there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests. The British can span a hundred years, play this set, they have already become fine, the British are now doing this is nothing more than to sacrifice us to save India, before they still want to sacrifice us, to preserve their colonies in Southeast Asia, for this reason also closed the Yunnan-Burma road, but after the outbreak of the European war, the Japanese ignored their painstaking efforts, under the strong request of the Americans, they agreed to cooperate with us, in fact, if we are destroyed, his India will never be able to keep, this they also know, But they are also afraid that we will rise in the war and threaten their rule in Burma and other places, so they have repeatedly stumbled us, and the history of Britain for hundreds of years is hundreds of years of despicable and shameless history, and they used to calculate only in Europe, and before World War II, they still wanted to sacrifice small European countries to win the favor of Germany, so that Germany would not attack them, and in the end Germany still attacked them, so we really can't trust the British anymore, otherwise they will really play to death. ”

Wang Hanzhang said so much in one bite, looking at Dai Anlan and Gao Jiren and Dong Han without speaking, his eyes seemed to be hesitating, Wang Hanzhang knew that they were pure soldiers, if they disobeyed orders, it would be more uncomfortable for him than killing them, this feeling is like asking a man with a serious virgin complex to marry a black fungus as a wife.

Wang Hanzhang decided to add a fire and said: "Division, deputy division, regiment, I know that you have no intention or go back when you come to Myanmar, and your personal life and death have long been put aside, but I think you are here to defend the country and fight against Japan, not to play monkeys for foreign devils, we don't have the energy and time, not to mention that after playing tricks, the consequence may be the annihilation of the 100,000 expeditionary force, everyone is a family member, relatives and friends, if we die more unjust than Dou E, how sad our family should be!" For the sake of the country, for the sake of the Chinese nation, for the sake of the 100,000 brothers of the expeditionary force not dying in vain, and for the sake of not allowing the imperialist conspiracy to succeed, I believe that you will certainly be able to make the right choice. ”
