Myanmar is the largest country in the Indochina Peninsula, since the 80s of the 19th century has been a British colony, Myanmar is adjacent to Yunnan in the northeast, British India in the northwest, Thailand and French Indochina in the southeast, and the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea in the southwest.

Of course, Myanmar was not a unified country like Myanmar in later generations, but the British successively incorporated the tribes in this region and the seized Chinese territories in order to colonize and facilitate management.

Of course, these were decades ago, and it is better to dwell on the past than to look to the future for the various ethnic groups that have been annexed. Today's matter is also related to one Chinese, no, it is related to all Chinese in China.

Three days ago, Wang Hanzhang crossed over here, crossed over to a platoon commander of Dai Anlan's 200th Division, and it took a long time for Wang Hanzhang to figure out the situation, and Wang Hanzhang now understands that it is the period of the first expeditionary force in 1942.

Wang Hanzhang is very clear about the final outcome of this expeditionary force, a liberal arts student, and is very interested in history, especially the several battles in which many devils were eliminated in China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

Thinking of the tragic encounter of the expeditionary force in history, especially the encounter of the 200th division, Wang Hanzhang sighed, the survival of the 200th division is related to his own life! However, he is only a small platoon commander, even if he is working hard to fight, he will not affect the general trend, if the 200th Division is allowed to follow the development of history, then his own life may be explained.

It's not that Wang Hanzhang is afraid of death, but it seems that the traversers don't all want to turn the tide, rewrite history, and save the Chinese nation from fire and water? Wang Hanzhang also hopes that since there is such a good opportunity, it should be like this, the most painful thing in life is that you know the result, know the process, and there is nothing worse than this, but you have no way to change, at least not at present, so Wang Hanzhang is now in deep distress.

Wang Hanzhang is thinking that the first expeditionary force can hold Burma, then maybe the situation of the domestic war of resistance will be significantly improved, maybe China can counterattack in advance, and now Britain is being ravaged by Germany, this time is the weakest time for Britain, if the expeditionary force can hold Burma now, then there will be enough time to digest Burma and make Burma a part of China, but this is just thinking about it in Wang Hanzhang's head.

There is no way to defeat the Japanese now, what can we talk about controlling Burma, and even if the Japanese are defeated, how can we persuade the central government to offend the British to control Burma, I am afraid that the central government does not have the courage, and I know from history that Lao Chiang is an indecisive person! Nothing but the civil war. Wang Hanzhang is now very envious of the fact that there was a Stalin in Soviet Russia and a Hitler in Germany. As for China, forget that Brother Mao is still fighting guerrillas, and now I definitely can't count on him, and after 1949, the world situation has long been turned upside down, and the opportunity has long been missed...... Distress......

After the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance against Japanese aggression, China's political and military center moved westward, and the southwestern provinces became the rear of the people's protracted war of resistance. Myanmar is the gateway to southwest China and plays a very important strategic role in the Chinese government's strategy of protracted resistance to war. The Japanese invasion brought Britain closer to the Nationalist government, and Burma had not been a problem to worry about until then. As early as the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the Nationalist Government negotiated with the British to build the Yunnan-Burma Highway in order to obtain imported supplies.

Myanmar is divided into two parts according to the mountains, rivers and economic and political conditions: north of Mandalay is Upper Burma, Mandalay is the political center of Upper Burma, holding the transportation branch hub, and choking the confluence of waterways, which is a battleground for soldiers in history. To the south of Mandalay is Lower Myanmar, and Lower Myanmar is to Yangon as the throat, which is a new commercial port with modern port equipment. Later he was the capital of Burma.

There are railways and highways running through the north and south of Upper and Lower Burma, and the Yunnan-Burma Highway is the highway that makes full use of the railway from Yangon to Mandalay and the road of Lashio, Mandalay. The Yunnan-Burma Highway runs from Kunming in Yunnan Province in the east to Lashio in Myanmar in the west, with a total distance of 1,146 kilometers, including 959.4 kilometers in China.

Along the highway through the Hengduan Mountain Range, across the Nu River, Lancang River, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, the water flow is rapid, the route height difference is more than 1,300 meters, the terrain and climate are very complex. However, tens of thousands of Chinese migrant workers and technicians completed the entire road in just nine months, which was highly praised and praised by public opinion circles and experts at home and abroad. On December 1, 1938, the Yunnan-Burma Highway was officially opened to traffic, which played an important role in maintaining the economy of the rear area, stabilizing the situation on the battlefield, rearmament, and persisting in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

After the start of the all-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, our army suffered heavy losses in soldiers and equipment, with 1.1 million casualties in the first two years alone, and most of the loss of aircraft, tanks, and artillery. In order to maintain the situation of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, in addition to the current political, economic, military and other factors, the import of a large number of necessary materials along the international transportation lines is also an important factor. The opening of the Yunnan-Burma Highway resolved the dilemma of the shortage of materials caused by the Japanese army's capture of Wuhan and Guangzhou, which brought about the scarcity of supplies caused by cutting off the supply lines in South China.

However, after the Japanese captured Hainan Island in early 1939, the situation changed, and after the occupation of Hainan Island, the Japanese army increasingly exposed its attempts to occupy Vietnam, Thailand, and Burma. If the Japanese army captures Burma, it can attack western Yunnan by returning to the north, not only threatening Kunming, but also Sichuan cannot be stable, and the defense of the Yunnan-Burma Highway will begin to affect the hearts of the Chinese authorities with this Burmese defense. However, Burma was Britain's sphere of influence, and Britain did not declare war on Japan, so China had to strengthen the defense of the Sino-Burmese border.

When the European War broke out in '39, Japan was forced to declare that "the empire will not intervene and focus on the China incident" because of the bleak prospects of the Sino-Japanese war, but its ambition to dominate Asia has not diminished in the slightest. When the Japanese army launched the offensive against Guinan and Changsha, it was always concerned about the changes in the European war and the decline and decline of colonial power in Southeast Asia. In the summer of 1940, Japan's foreign minister delivered a speech on the establishment of the so-called "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere," and the attempt to invade Southeast Asia was undoubtedly exposed.

For the current China, the weakness of the British is fatal, although the British appeasement policy in Europe has completely failed, and suffered from Germany, but the British still adhere to this policy in Asia, in the face of Japan vainly want to rely on weakness, compromise, concession to make up for the lack of military strength, has always said that he will fight to the death with fascism to the end, and will never surrender, after coming to power, he also fantasized about using this two-faced method to perfunctory Japan, in order to protect his rear in the Far East colonies, This is particularly evident on the issue of the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

On June 14, 1940, after the surrender of France, Japan took the opportunity to coerce Britain to close the Yunnan-Burma Highway, and the British government actually agreed to Japan and signed a road closure agreement, stipulating that from July 16, three months to prohibit the transfer of arms, ammunition and railway materials through Burma to China. Immediately, Japan sent Saburo Watanabe and Yoshitaka Ohno to Shoshitaka and four other army officers to Yangon to supervise the blockade of the Yunnan-Burma Highway.

The Yunnan-Burma Highway was blocked, the Sino-Vietnamese line was directly exposed to the threat of the Japanese army, and the two international routes were paralyzed, and the Chinese War of Resistance entered an even more difficult phase of stalemate.

History has proved that Britain's attempt to keep Britain's colonies in Asia at the expense of China was wishful thinking, and Japan did not take into account Britain's painstaking efforts, but took advantage of Britain's fear of war to gain an inch. In September, the Japanese army invaded Vietnam, the transportation road from China to Vietnam was completely closed, and Japan signed a "friendship treaty" with Thailand, and the pace of Japanese expansion had penetrated through the British colonies in South Asia.

In order to get more land as soon as possible, Japan sent a large number of spies to use the anti-British sentiment of the Burmese to shake the British colonial rule, which is why the Burmese are now very repulsive to the squadron, they feel that the squadron is helping the British to fight the Japanese, it is the British who have allies, the British used to be in Burma as a prestige, bullying them, and the squadron also helped the British to fight the Japanese, that is, the enemies of the Burmese, so these Burmese are now not only not providing intelligence for the squadron, but helping the devils, Provide information to the devils.

Therefore, the situation of the expeditionary force now can be described as extremely dangerous. In addition, the shameless betrayal of the British, the materials would rather be destroyed than to the squadron, everyone in Burma regards the squadron as an enemy, Wang Hanzhang has no hope for the victory of this expeditionary force, although he has the advantage of a traverser and knows the direction of history, but he is not a soldier, he does not know how to fight, and now he does not control any large troops, and this life does not seem to be a rich child with a prominent family, so there is no way to turn the tide, and now Wang Hanzhang is just thinking about bringing the expeditionary force out of the predicament, don't go to the savage mountain again, Eaten by ants and locusts, do your best to preserve the strength of the expeditionary force, in order to fight again in the future, as long as Wang Hanzhang succeeds, then you can save at least 5 or 60,000 more elite soldiers of the expeditionary force.

Yes, that's it, Wang Hanzhang made up his mind in his heart, the current idea is the most realistic, everyone wants to rewrite history and let China dominate the world, but at present, Wang Hanzhang has that mind, but he doesn't have that strength, so he can only take one step at a time.

Wang Hanzhang figured it out, suppressed his inner thoughts, picked up a pen and paper, and wrote the direction of history, of course, in an analytical tone.

The reason why Wang Hanzhang did this was because he was just a small platoon commander, and he would encounter a devil fight at any time, and he would be hit by a bullet or a stray bullet flying from somewhere at any time and kill him, but Dai Anlan went to the headquarters for a meeting, so even if he wanted to find him now, he couldn't find it, and he couldn't leave his post without permission, otherwise he would be shot directly.

Therefore, write down the words first, and if you have enough time, write a few more copies, and give them to the people in the division to help them hand them over, even if you die, I believe that these letters will still be useful.
