Chapter 024: The Despicable and Shameless Briton Is Here Again

I returned to Lashio very quickly, and I came back in two days, and I was familiar with the road, and I didn't need to deal with anything, and nothing happened to the garrisons in Nankan, Xingwei and other places. Now it seems that the toasts do not dare to act rashly, and Wang Hanzhang also needs the army to make a breakthrough, lest there be any action in the future, or the action is very large, these toasts can't accept it.

And Tusi did not oppose Wang Hanzhang's garrison, the first is because there are not many garrisons, and secondly, Wang Hanzhang just said that the garrison is to supervise them not to owe taxes, of course, the third and ultimately important point, the name of the 200th Division, the people nearby have long been thunderous, they are afraid, worried that the garrison will not be allowed, the 200th Division, that is, Dai Anlan's 88th Army will come over, they think that there is no way to resist, even the Tusi who originally colluded with the Japanese, did not dare to act blatantly, and they turned to wait and see.

In addition to the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the Japanese are also actively spying on the intelligence of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which is of course understandable.

But the victory of the squadron made the British red-eyed and jealous, the British wanted to return to Burma, they wanted to send administrative staff, continue to collect taxes, and leave the security to the squadron. If there is any disadvantage, then they can immediately retreat, leaving the trouble to the Chinese.

Ever since the great victory of the Chinese Expeditionary Force in Burma, and especially after the United States inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese Combined Fleet at Midway, the Japanese could not sit still, they felt that they had to act, and they could not let China rule Burma, otherwise when the war was over, Burma would be British.

In order to be in case the British Governor in India decided to send a British brigade and two Indian divisions into Burma, taking advantage of the fact that China did not have the energy to digest Burma, and the main force of the squadron was still confronting the Japanese army in the central and southern regions, they decided to station in Ringanqiang first, there are rich oil fields, and the army here They feel easier to deal with, and there is a Sun Liren who saved them before here.

And Myitkyina, Mandalay, and Lashio all have Chinese heavy troops stationed, I'm afraid it's not so easy to enter, and the British are also weak-minded, before they repeatedly betrayed their teammates and escaped by themselves, but they were laughed at by countless people in the world, and now if they are stationed in the central and northern parts of the rear, I am afraid that they will be misunderstood, and they have no reason to justify.

And Magway

Ren'anqiang is different, there are acquaintances here, and Ren'anqiang is located in the south, close to the strategic location of the coast, even if it is tempting and dissatisfied, the British can also say that they want to assist the defense of the ** team, and he also brought the queen's medal to Sun Liren, so that the two-pronged approach, although it is relatively reluctant, but Myanmar was originally a British colony, and no one can say anything at that time.

On July 1st, more than 20,000 British and Indian troops set out from Imphal, India, and this time their equipment was better than before, and most of them could travel in cars, which were the supplies that the Americans had provided to the British.

The British spared no effort this time, Chiang's troops, built like an armored unit, but they felt that it was humiliating to escape before, so they wanted to use this luxurious lineup to save face.

The British and Indian troops did not encounter the obstruction of the squadron along the way, because in the southwest of the Chindun River to the Ringanqiang area, it is not the focus of defense, the local people in the city here are self-governing, although the British are gone, but the people here did not make any trouble, because the local Burmese army is still loyal to the British king, although the Burmese traitors are making waves, but they have not turned out any storms.

On July 4, the British and Indian troops arrived at Ringanqiang, the day before they arrived, in order to prevent accidents, they wanted the squadron to send a report, during which they were not discovered, and the expeditionary force was also awakened, this is a huge loophole, if the Japanese, then suffer, but they have no way, the Burmese are unwilling to cooperate, they feel that there are very few sources of intelligence in Burma, and the manpower is very insufficient.

Wei Lihuang also felt deeply about this, and now he feels that Wang Hanzhang established the administrative system, maybe not a bad thing, but a lot of benefits, which makes him can't help but think of **, when he was in the battle of Xinkou, he had a lot of contact with **, and the veteran dismissed his official before he was also very close to **.

Wei Lihuang has been summarizing, why ** is very well-equipped, but it is always defeated like a mountain, and **Although there is no big victory, but there are many Japanese invaders eliminated, and ** is very popular with the people, at least most of the people like ** army to force ** more, ** The intelligence sources are also very sufficient, in fact, the urban people provide, in the words of **, all the people are soldiers.

** Compared with the situation in Myanmar, Wei Lihuang understood what the people's war was all about, he was a Chinese before, commanding the army in China, and he didn't have much experience, but now he finally has an experience.

The news that the British had sent more than 20,000 people to Ringanqiang immediately flew around the world like wings, but only two countries were happy, one was Britain and the other was Japan.

Britain has the reputation of being an ally Italy, which means that the British will not only not help anyone who joins, but will cause trouble for the party that joins, and a lot of big trouble.

Yamashita Bongbun smiled in Mawlamyine, smirking, he had taken over the power since the Burmese Front was defeated and almost completely annihilated, but he had to do it for the sake of attack or defense.

Yamashita was very shrewd, he knew that only the United States could pose a threat to Japan, and China was great, and it could only hit North Korea, but it would never be able to swim in the strait between North Korea and Japan.

However, the industrial strength and naval strength of the United States are terrifying, judging from the two naval battles, if Japan does not send a large number of land forces to hold on to the islands in the Pacific Ocean and form an island defense chain, then the Americans will soon be able to directly cross the Philippines and Taiwan and directly attack the Japanese mainland.

Naturally, a large number of his troops had to be sent to the Pacific theater to serve in their place, so that his plan could not be started, although these people had served before, but they were not comparable to those who had been in the army for 5, 6, 7, or 8 years.

In addition, the soldiers have not arrived, and now the navy is very busy, and it has to send troops to the Pacific Ocean, and it has to transport domestic recruits to various places to replenish, and after these recruits arrive, there will be a month of adaptation, and Yamashita believes that the counterattack on Burma will need to wait until September.

If it takes so long, the fortifications of the squadron will be stronger, and if you attack again, I am afraid that the loss will not be small, although you can sacrifice their honor for the country, the soldiers read so at night, but Japan is not China, there are 4 or 500 million people, these people are dead, who will guard these territories!

Originally, a squadron would immediately go into a counterattack, but the squadron did not, which made the meat grinder prepared by Yamashita Fengwen for the squadron useless, it is indeed very disappointing, the most painful thing in life is that you are ready, your enemies suddenly do not come, and what is even more painful is that they do not leave, but are there to watch you.

And the British suddenly appeared in Burma, Yamashita Fengwen felt that the cost of his counterattack might be much smaller, the disharmony between China and Britain, the British were afraid of death and always betrayed their teammates, and the situation of repeatedly falling into the ** team and being surrounded and annihilated is a world civilization, don't countries around the world still say that Britain is the Italy of the Allied Powers!

The arrival of the British made the corners of Yamashita Fengwen's mouth full of smiles from time to time, and his subordinates could no longer see that kind of cold face, but Yamashita Fengwen preferred that it would be better for the squadron to attack before his recruits completed the training, in that case, he would have already had a way to make the squadron suffer heavy casualties in advance, and his troops were counterattacking, in that case, when attacking, the casualties of the troops would definitely be much smaller.

Yamashita believes that after such an attack, those recruits who have not killed anyone will quickly grow into a veteran, but his subordinates obviously have more ways than him, that is, to catch people to practice bayonets, so that the recruits can see blood, so that they will not faint blood, and they will not be afraid of the first killing on the battlefield, and then hesitate, because with hesitation, the opponent's bayonet will stab into your body, this trick is in China, they often practice, this is the best way to make the recruits grow quickly.

The Japanese did this, and the unfortunate thing was that Burma recognized it, because this is the territory of Burma, although Thailand is close, but Thailand is a nominal ally ally after all, if you use other people's people to practice bayonets, it will definitely not be reasonable, not to mention that you need the Thai army to assist in the attack. If the Thais can't, then only the Burmese.

At first, Yamashita Fengwen was opposed, because this would push the Burmese into the arms of the Chinese, Yamashita Fengwen is not a fool, at this time the Burmese are inclined to Japan, but the subordinates also have his reasons, the war has been fought for so many years, the elite is getting fewer and fewer, if the recruits do not see blood in advance, then the Chinese elite on the opposite side will not hesitate to kill them, Japan is not China, there are so many people there can be sacrificed.

Yamashita Fengwen finally had to acquiesce, just asking them not to go too far, but once the beastliness of the Japanese army attacked, there was so much control, the soldier's ** could not be controlled under the connivance of the officer, and the atrocities in China once again befell the Burmese, and the Thai army also joined the ranks of violence after learning about it, Myanmar has invaded Thailand many times in history, and now it still occupies some territory of Thailand, and there is such a good opportunity to take revenge, so the situation is getting worse and worse, and it is uncontrollable, Myanmar, which is under Japanese control, became a hell on earth for a while, and the Burmese did not expect the Japanese to turn their faces when they said they would turn their faces.
