Section 2 The First Battle III

Zai Anlan rushed to the Mozambican Army City Defense Headquarters with four Wei Shi. \.qβ Five, Com didn't go far before Major Eddington was striding on the meteor.

"Wow, Dai, did you rob that son of a bitch?" Aldington looked at the heavily armed jeep in amazement, he knew that in order to carry more people, this train was not loaded with any vehicles, except for people, a few mountain guns, and the slot guns were all on the road.

Aldington was very dissatisfied with Field's attitude, he moved with the new 39th Division, knowing the price they had to spend on the journey, but it was easy to get to Tonggu, and the Englishman actually refused to get out of the car. It really doesn't make sense. "The British are very wealthy, and they don't want such cars, so we have to pick them up and use them." Halberd Anlan didn't answer, but the chief guard answered for him, stretching out a hand to pull him into the car. Then the jeep drove towards Tawa Avenue in a puff of smoke.

"Yo. , they didn't plan to fight here. Aldington was disappointed to see what was happening along the way, and a number of British soldiers appeared in the streets, most of them empty-handed, or carrying suitcases from unknown sources. There was a look of panic on his face.

"Hey, hey, what troop are you? Where are the Japanese now? Aldington called out to a sergeant. The sergeant stared blankly at him, and Aldington asked again, but the sergeant shook his head blankly.

"Let's drive, he's scared." Dai Anlan said lightly that these soldiers made him very familiar, and at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War Network, some soldiers of the Chinese army were like this, and they didn't know anything. I don't know where the enemy is, but if I hear the gunshots, I will definitely flee in the opposite direction of the sound. No one can pull it back.

When they were approaching Tawa Street, another group of refugees appeared from the south, and a dozen British soldiers were wrapped in them, only half of them had guns, and a lieutenant on the side of the road was trying to gather them, but these soldiers pretended not to see them, and kept their heads on the road.

"Lieutenant, where is the City Defense Command?" Aldington asked, and the lieutenant glanced at them. He gave Aldington a military salute and replied, "You can see it if you turn right ahead." ”

Dai Anlan's face was cold, according to international custom, the salute should first salute the highest rank, but the lieutenant didn't seem to see the Venus on his shoulder, he snorted heavily: "Drive." ”

The chief guard did not understand these etiquette, so he started the jeep and left, but he knew that the chief was not happy. With a slight swing of the rear of the car, the lieutenant scrambled to dodge.

Aldington didn't know why Diane was angry, but after turning the corner, he understood why the lieutenant said he could see it, in front of a three-story building, four or five trucks were parked there, soldiers were busy loading, papers were thrown all over the ground, and the soldiers standing guard at the gate saw the jeep and didn't care about letting them drive into the yard.

Aldington grabbed a red-faced sergeant and asked the commander where he was, the sergeant gasped and pointed upwards, and Dai Anlan and his party shook off the others. Go directly to the commandant's office on the second floor.

"Tell them that it will be twelve o'clock today at the latest. Let's go, the Chinese don't care if they don't get to me, I can't let my soldiers fight in this situation. ”

While I was still in the corridor, I heard a very energetic voice shouting from inside: "Those leather monkeys are behind, if you don't leave, we will be all finished!" ”

Dai Anlan understood part of the English, and he glanced at Aldington, who looked embarrassed. Aldington pushed the door open. A major was pointing fingers in the room, shouting at one. Lieutenant, see Aldington and Diane pushing the door in. Immediately look vigilant.

"I am Major Aldington, the liaison officer of the U.S. Army, and I accompanied General Dai Anlan of the Chinese Expeditionary Force to contact the defense." Aldington's tone was a little stiff.

The major's face immediately relaxed, Aldington felt that he was obviously relieved, he cursed in his heart, and the major immediately stood up and saluted Dai Anlan: "I am Major McPherson, the commander of the British army and the ancient city defense. I have been informed by the new commander-in-chief of the Imperial Burma Army, General Alexander, that the squadron will take over the defense of Tonggu, and we are waiting for your arrival, General, I have been ordered to hand over the defense of Tonggu to your army. ”

Dai Anlan said expressionlessly: "I am Major General Dai Anlan, commander of the newly formed 39th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, and I was ordered to take over the defense of Tongcheng City. ”

Neither side had any intention of holding a handover ceremony, so Dai Anlan immediately occupied McPherson's desk and asked, "Major, tell me what you know." ”

"After our army abandoned Bago, one part withdrew to Tonggu, and the main force withdrew to Yangon, originally intended to hold Rangoon, but before our army reached Yangon, the Japanese 56th Division and 18th Division landed in Rangoon, Rangoon was lost yesterday, the 17th Division and the 7th Armored Brigade that were originally scheduled to withdraw to Rangoon are withdrawing to Plome, and some troops are withdrawing to Tonggu, and they are expected to arrive in two days."

"What about the Japanese army?" Dai Anlan asked.

"The Japanese army, the situation of the Japanese army is not very clear" McPherson said, "as far as I know. After the capture of Yangon, the 56th and 18th Divisions of the Japanese Army were resting in the city, and the 2nd and 55th Divisions were also resting in Bago

Aldington was very disappointed, the situation was too vague and most likely wrong, the Japanese army was resting, our army was fleeing for their lives, God, Burma was our gift to the Japanese.

"Where are you going?" Aldington asked disdainfully.

"When you arrive, I will lead my troops to retreat to Ringanqiang, and the headquarters will order us to assemble there." McPherson didn't seem to notice Aldington's expression. After finishing speaking, he was relieved, and he said in a relaxed tone: "General, now Tonggu is yours, I hope you can have good luck." I've heard that those yellow-skinned monkeys are very difficult to entangle. ”

"I've been dealing with them for four years, and I know exactly what they are." Dai Anlan had nothing to say.

McPherson smiled faintly, he was very satisfied that he had escaped from this dangerous city in time. He saluted Diane and Aldington and turned to leave, but Halberd Anlan asked him to leave the map, the British map was very accurate, and the Chinese were still a little rougher. Macpherson regarded this as an honor for the royal army, so he did not refuse, but on the contrary despised it even more.

Diane and Aldington were admiring a map of England, a map of the same ancient era, very neat. Mountains, rivers, churches, monasteries, everything. None of the same: armed. Judging from the map, the British had only made a simple defensive arrangement at the airfield, and there was nothing in the rest of the area, and Dianlan even doubted whether explosives had been installed on the Pew River bridge.

"If you travel with this map, you won't get lost." Aldington sarcastically. Dai Anlan smiled slightly. His mood was still relatively relaxed, and it seemed that the Japanese army would not arrive today, so he had at least two days to arrange defense.

Suddenly, there was an angry roar outside the window. The two hurriedly went to the window, and McPherson was in distress and scolded at the two Indian soldiers: "Xian, do you know what this is? This is an antique from the XVII century! A representative of the Burmese civilization! It will be destroyed in your hands! You two stupid pigs! ”

On the ground, a pile of porcelain pieces that have been beaten to shreds can be vaguely seen as painted Buddha statues. After Dai Anlan saw it clearly, he turned to leave, and Aldington couldn't help but scold: "If the British want to hold Burma, they must first shoot such bastards." "Do you still want to fight with them now?" Dai Anlan moved his chair to the map, looking at it and asking. Aldington was speechless, he was the same as Simmons, and he went further. It was even hoped that the new 39th Division would join forces with the British to launch a counteroffensive against the Japanese army. Of course, this request was resolutely rejected by Dai Anlan.

After a pause, he looked up at Dai Anlan thoughtfully. He somewhat understood what these Chinese thought, they had long known that the British were unreliable, so they preferred to slow down, preferring to risk losing Rangoon rather than to be with the British, but this sacrifice was the situation in Burma.

Just as he was about to speak, there was another noise in the yard, he walked to the window angrily, pushed open the window and was about to scold McPherson who was only about to flee for his life, but saw a group of ** people pouring into the yard, filling the yard to the brim, and the chief of staff Huang Zhenzheng commanded people to carry the equipment into the building.

"Chief of Staff Huang, don't lift things inside. I'll come down. ”

Aldington turned his head to see that Dai Anlan had arrived at the window at some point, and was shouting below. Huang Zhen immediately stopped those people and waited in the courtyard.

Diane ordered the chief guard to take the map down, then glanced at the ornate and messy office, sighed softly and left, Aldington following him, not knowing what he was going to do.

"Japan is going outside the city. First of all, you have to take a shell here, and the command can't put it here. The first thing Dai Anlan said to Huang Zhen was the location of the headquarters: "There is a villa at the back of this street, the terrain is good, and the manor is strong enough, let's go there." ”

"Here?" Huang Zhen hesitated, he looked at the building, this is a concrete building. The British were still very particular about housing construction, and the houses were built extremely strongly, and such a place was suitable for the headquarters.

Seeing his reluctance, Dai Anlan said lightly: "The Japanese must think that our headquarters is located here, and once they start attacking the city, this will be the focus of their attack." ”

Aldington suddenly had confidence, and he felt that these Chinese were familiar with war. Having a wealth of experience, the previous outward performance was only because they did not trust the British, in fact they were prepared for how to fight in Burma, and may even have a comprehensive strategy, and the prospects for fighting in Burma may not be so pessimistic. Maybe they can surprise everyone in Myanmar.

Half past ten in the morning. Deputy division commander Zheng Yinong led the troops by road to Tonggu, and the whole division of the new 39th Division arrived at Tonggu and fully defended Tonggu Town.
