", QВ (5), cOm/Cultural Revolution, the principal also belongs to Yan Dele Battle VI "Yu Ji was careful to talk about Zhaonuodong, he was a little worried in his heart, Chiang Kai-shek called a few days ago. It was suggested that they take advantage of the powerful terrain of Mandalay and organize a battle here to thwart the arrogance of the Japanese army. "Our priority now is to preserve the army. Explain the situation to the principal, and the principal will naturally understand. Zhuang Jihua frowned and said, he didn't like others to interfere with his command, but Chiang Kai-shek's tone was gentle, and he did not give a direct order, this is also for Zhuang Jihua, if he wants to change someone else, I am afraid that he has already gone to Burma to inspect the army.

"Then how did Shi Qianwei reply?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Regardless of his ...... Zhuang Jihua hesitated before saying that he could deal with Alexander unscrupulously, but he could not deal with Stilwell like this, after all, the United States is the main supporter of China.

Keeping the communication with Tonggu smooth, Dai Anlan sent a battle report every half a day, and Yu Chengwan in Darcy was also nervous, because he was worried that Dai Anlan would be surrounded, he ordered a brigade from Pingmanna's new 44th Division to go out to the north of Mula, and then reported to Zhuang Jihua, asking for command in Pingmanna. The New Eighth Army was temporarily commanded by Shi Guanjiu, deputy commander and chief of staff, and Zhuang Jihua also agreed.

"Tang Ji is also called Dongzhi Fortress, and he has not found the enemy?"

After Tangji was on the north side of Tonggu, Loikaw was an important place between Burma and China near the Thai-Burmese border, and the new 28th Division was responsible for guarding this area.

"Director He called, but no trace of the Japanese army was found." After Xiao Yisu finished speaking. He also reminded: "Do you want to telegraph our latest deployment to Director He?"

"Don't send a telegram, send someone." Zhuang Jihua nodded: "The telegram is not safe, tell He Wei that if Tangji is attacked by the Japanese army, he must hold on for three days." In addition, supplies must be shipped quickly. There can be no delay, "Is Lu Houde here?" Zhuang Jihua turned his head and asked, Lu Houde was originally the commander-in-chief of the Yunnan branch of the logistics department, and Zhuang Jihua also transferred him to the expeditionary force this time. Take care of the logistics and let Hong Junqi send someone else to replace him.

No, he went to Pingmanna and Gong Chu replied.

"What is he doing in Pingmanna?" Zhuang Jihua frowned and asked.

"The British army has two warehouses in Pingmanna, and it is said that there are 500 cannons alone, as well as about 20,000 barrels of gasoline and diesel, and he rushed over to have a look." Gong Chu said.

"The supplies here have to be rushed as soon as possible. The Japanese army was counting on these things. Zhuang Jihua said: "Deputy Chief of Staff Gong, you are responsible for this matter. You can do whatever you want. ”

After Zhuang Jihua finished speaking, he wrote down a warrant and handed it to Gong Chu, Gong Chu took it and turned around and left, and when he arrived at the door, he was meeting Stilwell and Alexander who came in, he paused and let them go out before going out.

"Zhuang, I think we can talk about it again." Stilwell said: "General Alexander has just contacted the front, and Humble has indeed lost the position, and he has not received a report before this, and it was handled by Chief of Staff Hudun." ”

Zhuang Jihua looked at them coldly, Shi Bianwei's expression was grim, and Alexander still maintained his aristocratic arrogance, holding a well-crafted crutch technique in his hand.

"Zhuang, I'm sorry" Alexander's expression did not look like an apology at all: "I hope to forget this unpleasant incident as soon as possible, we must stop the Japanese in Mandalay." ”

"There is no need to talk about Mandalay. Our army came to Burma for only one purpose, to eliminate the Japanese, but from the beginning of entering Burma, your country has set up many obstacles, resulting in our army not yet fully assembled, and now I have found out. Your country does not have the confidence to defend Burma, and what you are thinking about is how to withdraw to India as soon as possible, so that our army can attract the Japanese army to attack and bear all the pressure. Therefore, I have ordered the cancellation of the battle of Mandalay, and the gradual withdrawal of our troops to the north, and I am here to formally inform you. ”

Zhuang Jihua's expression was grim, and now he didn't plan to go around in circles with Stilwell, let alone give Alexander face. Stilwell suddenly lost his temper, and he rushed forward a few steps.

Zhuang, the Battle of Mandalay was negotiated by the allies, and you can't just cancel it. And I am the Chief of Staff of the Chinese Theater of Operations, and the Battle of Mandalay cannot be canceled without my consent."

"General Stilwell, I have always respected you, but I cannot carry out this order, my troops are still scattered along the Burma Highway, and the transport force is simply insufficient, and where is the air cover promised by the British? Let's talk about the British ** team, we have seen a lot of British ** teams along the way, can you see that they have the will to fight? 50,000 people defended Rangoon, but only for two days, can such an army fight? Zhuang Jihua is very angry, and his voice is louder than Stilwell.

Zhuang Jihua was angry, Stilwell calmed down, he and Alexander exchanged glances, Alexandre didn't care about Zhuang Jihua's opinion of the British army, he calmly pushed the gold wire glasses: "General Zhuang, our performance in the early battle is indeed not good, but now it is different, our army has been reorganized, and the morale has been completely restored." The officers and soldiers are now eager to fight and wash away the shame, as for your ** team, as far as I know, two of your ** corps have already arrived in Burma, and the main force of the third army has also entered Burma, so we have concentrated 200,000 troops, which is completely enough to fight in Mandalay. ”

"In Mandalay?" Zhuang Jihua sneered: "We are here to fight, General Alexander, I want to ask you first, when will the air cover promised by your country arrive?" Also, how do you plan to command your team? ”

Alexander Shen Ning regretted that the Royal Air Force is now supporting the Burma war, and the Royal Can military industry wants to be in Europe, but the mission of the army is to destroy the enemy on the surface, and no air force can also destroy the enemy. ”

He stood there and waved his cane very magnificently, and his tone was sonorous and powerful, if he hadn't seen their details clearly, Zhuang Jihua would probably really think that the British wanted to seriously compete with the Japanese here.

"Tonggu call" Xiao Yisu received the telegram from a staff officer, and then reported to Zhuang Jihua, Zhuang Jihua did not reply to the head and said that he read it, Xiao Yisu picked up the telegram: "In the afternoon, the fierce battle continued on the whole line of Tonggu, and the Japanese 18th Division attacked Ekechun and Tantabao respectively with two brigades under the cover of aircraft and tanks, and our army relied on the preset position to resolutely resist and killed more than 200 Japanese soldiers; Another about 2,000 Japanese troops bypassed Chai Kechun and attacked Keyonggang Airport, but were repulsed by the 786th Brigade and the Mongolian Regiment. Yu led the division headquarters to continue in the city, and our army suffered few casualties

"General Zhuang, your subordinates are still fighting, you are ready to retreat, ready to escape, are you worthy of your subordinates?"

Stilwell is now very quietly angry, and Zhuang Jihua is no longer the commander of Nanjing and Xuzhou. A brave and tenacious commander, but a general who fears the enemy like a tiger and is as timid as a mouse.

"Many". Zhuang Jihua snorted lightly and was about to fight back. Yu Jishi was worried that the relationship would be too stiff, so he hurriedly interjected: "General Stilwell, General Alexander." Since it was a joint operation, we would like to know the deployment of the British army. ”

Yu Jishi's interjection made Alexander and Shi Qiwei have a delusion, Zhuang Jihua's anger just now was just a pretentious gesture, and the ultimate goal was to raise the price.

"Despicable has been lost, but our army is still in Alain Lang, Yorktapo, Obangwe, and Shask. Bewai, Dongdunzhi, and Ren'anqiang, set up three lines of defense, and the last main position was set up in Chok Padang, after the consumption of the three lines of defense, we were able to teach the Japanese to be ruthless. Alexander looked confident.

Zhuang Jihua was about to open his mouth to object, but Yu Jishi hurriedly said: "In this case, how many troops does your country plan to invest?" ”

Four divisions, one division is on the way, the total strength is about 100,000 men, if the fifteenth division can arrive in time, the total strength can reach 120,000 Alexander is confident: "I have removed a group of timid and cowardly officers. The soldiers, led by the new officers, were fighting high and were waiting for the Japanese to come

Zhuang Jihua was a little puzzled, how could this British nobleman open his mouth to tell lies, it seems that this is a necessary quality of the aristocracy, what kind of fighting spirit, despicable did not fight much and lost, the Japanese army came out of Burma, it only took four days to conquer the despicable, four days, even marching with the battle, walked more than 500 kilometers, I really don't know how high the morale is, in order for the Japanese army to play such an outstanding record.

Yu Jishi looked at Zhuang Jihua and glanced at him. The meaning is clear, let him say a few words casually. It's over fooling these two people away, as for how to fight, how we should fight and how to fight, and it's uncertain who will sell who when the time comes.

I didn't expect Stilwell to be mistaken, and when he turned his head, Alexander said: "The battle some time ago proved that General Hudun's ability is not enough to command such a big battle, can you personally command your ** team?" ”

It stands to reason that Alexander was Stilwell's superior. Stilwell was only the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force" Alexander was the commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in Burma, but the situation was different now, and the British had to rely on Stilwell's power to achieve their goals.

"General Shi Qiwei, I will personally go to the front to command the troops, and we will definitely be able to block the Japanese south of Chokpadang." Alexander replied without hesitation.

Stilwell immediately struck while the iron was hot and looked at Zhuang Jihua eagerly: "General Zhuang, you have heard General Alexander's words, I don't know what else is preventing us from teaching the Japanese here?"

Zhuang Jihua looked at Shi Qiwei and then at Alexander. Very helpless and very angry in his heart, he was about to refute, when suddenly he saw a trace of smugness on Alexander's face, and his mind was in a flash.

"Damn the British, so you're here to set up a trap on Lao Tzu." Zhuang Jihua figured out in vain why Alexander insisted on it. The kid thinks as long as he insists on fighting. Well, no matter what, he is invincible.

If there was a real battle, the British would be on the Western Front. It can be withdrawn to Erdu at any time, leaving the squadron to engage the Japanese army, and the responsibility for the loss of Burma is borne by Stilwell; On the contrary, if Zhuang Jihua resolutely opposed the battle, then the British army would naturally withdraw to India, and the sinner who lost Burma was Zhuang Jihua. He won't suffer either way.

Zhuang Jihua sneered in his heart, since this is the case. Then don't blame me for being unjust. "In that case, I agree to meet the Japanese at Mandalay, but I hope that General Alexis will personally command the British army, and that the prestige of the general will boost morale. As long as you can hold the Western Front, we can hold the Front and the Eastern Front. My headquarters is in Mandalay

Stilwell finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Alexander was proud in his heart, and he said solemnly: "Please rest assured General Zhuang, I will personally command the British army to save the situation in Burma." ”

There was something temporary yesterday, and it was too late to update, so I made up for it today.
