Menggong River Valley.

On the improvised road leading to Menggong Town, the teams of the 200th Division, the Tank Regiment, the Artillery Regiment and the Automobile Regiment of the Fifth Army were marching forward in a mighty manner, and Yue Weihan's jeep was also among them.

"Crunch!" With the screeching of brakes, the jeep was already parked on the side of the road.

Yue Weihan and Luo Zhuoying woke up suddenly, and when they looked at it urgently, they saw that Yue Weihan's attendant adjutant Chu Zhongtian was already standing upright outside the car window, and Chu Zhongtian immediately stood up and saluted: "General, the new 38th Division has occupied Myitkyina, the 113th Infantry Wing of the Yue Army stationed in Myitkyina has been completely annihilated, and the facilities of Myitkyina Airport are intact!" ”

"Okay." Yue Weihan said happily, "Sun Liren did a good job, and the new 38th Division did a good job!" ”

"Oh, this new 38th Division will definitely fight." Luo Zhuoying said, "And this Sun Liren, he really deserves to come out of the United States Military Academy at West Point, and he is a good hand at fighting." ”

When saying this, Luo Zhuoying also deliberately looked at Yue Weihan twice.

Luo Zhuoying's mind was very insidious, he wanted to see how Yue Weihan gave him a step?

Before the new 38th Division set out, Yue Weihan promised in public that as long as the new 38th Division successfully captured Myitkyina Airport, Yue Weihan would kneel down and apologize to all the officers and men of the New 38th Division in front of the 80,000 officers and men of the expeditionary force!

Yue Weihan didn't react to Luo Zhuoying's vague reminder, as if he had forgotten about it.

"Well, Sun Liren really lives up to his reputation!" Yue Weihan smiled slightly, and immediately instructed Chu Zhongtiandao, "Zhongtian, immediately report to the Military Commission and the Allied Headquarters, and then ask Sun Liren and all the officers and soldiers of the new 38th Division for credit." ”

………… Yangon, the headquarters of the 15th Army Corps.

Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida, the commander of the corps, got up early in the morning and danced the sword technique, and just took the towel from the adjutant and wiped his face, the chief of staff of the corps, Major General Haruki Isayama, had already walked into the backyard with a black face, and immediately suddenly retracted his feet and stood upright: "Your Excellency, the 113th Infantry Wing stationed in Myitkyina has been collectively shattered, and Myitkyina has also been lost!" ”

"What!?" Iida Shojiro Huo Ran turned his head and said in disbelief, "Matsui United's collective jade shatter? ”

"Hello!" Isayama Haruki bowed his head suddenly, and said with a solemn expression, "More than 2,200 people from the Matsui United, the collective jade is broken!" ”

"Yaga!" Shojiro Iida said angrily, "What about the 14th Tank Wing? Where did Ikeda's chariot wing go? ”

Isayama Haruki shook his head and said with a hideous expression: "Matsui Hideji fell for the strategy of the Shina Army to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, thinking that the Shina Army was going to attack Menggong Town, but as a result, the chariot wing was transferred to Menggong to block the main force of the Shina Army, but the new 38th Division of the Shina Army suddenly appeared in Myitkyina, and the Matsui Wing was caught off guard, so it was ......"

"New 38th Division?" Iida Shojiro said awe-inspiringly, "The Shina troops who defeated the 214th Wing at Renanqiang? ”

"Hello." Haruki Isayama bowed his head abruptly and replied in a solemn tone, "It is the 113th Infantry Regiment of the New 38th Division, which defeated more than 1,000 people of the 214th Infantry Wing of the 33rd Division in Ren'anqiang, and rescued more than 7,000 British troops besieged by the Imperial Army, as well as more than 500 American missionaries and journalists captured by the Imperial Army. ”

"What? One regiment defeated more than 1,000 people of the main force of the 214th Infantry Wing!? Iida Shojiro said in shock, "From the perspective of combat effectiveness, this should be the elite troops of the Chinese Army, but there seem to be only a few elite troops of the Chinese Army, except for the Xue Yue Corps and the 39th Group Army, it seems that there is only the Fifth Army, where did this army come from?" ”

Isayama Haruki could only shake his head when he heard this, the number of the [***] team has always been varied, endless, a unit has multiple numbers, or multiple troops share the number is not uncommon, which is unimaginable for the Imperial Army, although the agents of the Great Empire are powerful, but they have never been able to figure out the number system of the [***] team.

At that moment, Iida Shojiro hurriedly scrubbed, put on his military uniform and came to the war room of the headquarters.

Haruki Isayama took two steps forward and brushed the ground to pull back the curtains on the wall, revealing a huge military topographical map.

Iida Shojiro walked to the map in two steps and asked in a deep voice, "Isayama-kun, where have the main forces of the 18th Division and the 33rd Division going north along the Manmi Railway arrived?" ”

"Here." Haruki stepped forward and pointed to the map and said, "Mengyang Town, about ninety kilometers away from Menggong. ”

"Command!" Iida Shojiro gritted his teeth and said in a cruel voice, "The 18th and 33rd divisions immediately speed up their march, and must recapture Myitkyina within two days!" ”

………… Imphal, the British garrison.

After several days of rapid marching, Stilwell and his party finally made their way out of the tropical jungle on the Indo-Burmese border.

At the British garrison, Stilwell again met Alexander, the commander-in-chief of the Anglo-Burmese army, who had "retreated" to Imphal.

This Admiral Alexander was born into a famous family, with a straight posture and a graceful demeanor, as if no matter what the occasion, he would not leave his aristocratic temperament, and as for the record, he was most proud or the only thing he could do was to command a world-famous defeat, or retreat, that is, the Dunkirk Retreat!

Thanks to Alexander's efforts, 400,000 British and French troops retreated safely to the island of England, preserving their strength for the continued resistance of the British and French exiles.

"Oh, my friend, you look terrible."

"General Stilwell, I'm so worried that the jungles of Burma will swallow you."

"I think your Mr. President should have airlifted 20 infantry divisions to protect you."

After a few simple words, Lieutenant General Slim, commander of the 1st Anglo-Burmese Army, Major General Wells, commander of the 1st Division of the Anglo-Burmese Army, and Sir Smith, the Governor of Burma, began to sneer at Stilwell, and the British were very dissatisfied with the fact that the American political axe had only sent a few generals and hundreds of advisers to the Burmese battlefield but had not sent any infantry division.

In fact, the British mentality of the British in this era was generally complicated when it came to Americans.

This has to start from the historical origins of the United States and Britain, from a racial point of view, the British Commonwealth is the son of the Anglo-Saxon family, and the United States is just the son of this old guy.

After more than 100 years, Lao Tzu finally got old, and his once strong body began to fall, one was not as good as the other, but the concubine was thriving, and there was a faint posture of replacing Lao Tzu as the patriarch of the Anglo-Saxon family, Lao Tzu naturally would not easily give up the throne of the patriarch, but before the father and son fought, the Yuerman family in the neighboring village came first.

In order to deal with the common enemy, the father and son had to let go of their previous suspicions and reconcile, although Lao Tzu had acquiesced in his heart to the fact that the concubine would inherit the throne of the patriarch of the Anglo-Saxon family, but this was not a taste in his heart after all, and this ...... It was the British of this era who looked at the general mentality of Americans.

In addition, a few days ago, Stilwell put pressure on the Allied Command through the US political axe, forcing the British and Indian troops to mobilize tens of thousands of engineers and more than 100,000 Indian men to put on a posture of rushing to repair an improvised highway near the Tingjiang Airport in eastern India, which aroused great dissatisfaction among Alexander and other British generals, believing that the Americans would follow the Chinese in a blind and poor toss.

Alexander immediately offered to cancel the futile attempt to repair the road, but Stilwell sternly refused.

"General Stilwell!" Alexander frowned, and said in an unkind tone, "Do you think that the Chinese Expeditionary Force can really hold northern Burma and hold out until the day when the Indo-Burma Highway is opened to traffic?" ”

Stilwell said: "If the Chinese Expeditionary Force can seize the Myitkyina airport, I don't think it's impossible. ”

"Seize Myitkyina airport?" Major General Wells shrugged his shoulders and said abruptly, "Oh God, just that rabble who have been frightened by the devils? Can they also seize Myitkyina, which is heavily garrisoned? If the Chinese team really wants to have such combat effectiveness, it will not lose most of the country in just one year. ”

Although Major General Wells's 1st Division was saved by the new 38th Division, and he was grateful to the new 38th Division, this did not mean that he agreed with the combat effectiveness of the [***] team.

"General Stilwell, I bet you that the squadron will withdraw to India in half a month, and will throw away all weapons, even steel helmets!" Lieutenant General Slim is even more desperate, when the British and Burmese troops retreated, it can really be described as a mountain of defeat, the soldiers of the British Empire even ran away with their boots, let alone guns and ammunition, how good can the Chinese be?

When Stilwell was about to sternly refute, a graceful female British officer suddenly walked in with a twisted waist and hips, and immediately stood tall and reported to Alexander: "Sir, the Allied Command has sent an urgent telegram, the new 38th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force has recaptured Myitkyina, and more than 2,000 people of the 113th Infantry Company stationed in Myitkyina have been completely annihilated!" ”

"What?"

"God, this can't be!"

"No, no, no, this must be something wrong!"

"Miss Linda, did you copy the wrong message? Yes, it must have been a mistaken message! ”

Alexander, Slim, Wells, and Smith were stunned at first, and then they exploded.

Whether emotionally or intellectually, Alexander and others did not dare or want to believe the true surname of this telegram, the powerful Royal Army of the British Empire lost to the Yue Ben army on the battlefield in Burma, how could the Chinese [***] team, which had been weak for a hundred years, defeat the Yue army that defeated the British army?

"Miss Linda, are the facilities at Myitkyina airport in good condition?" Stilwell, on the other hand, was more concerned about Myitkyina's airport.

"Oh yes." The pretty British female officer smiled apologetically to Stilwell and replied, "The airfield facilities in Myitkyina are intact, and the Allied Command has ordered Chennault's Flying Tigers to send a flying squadron to urgently station Myitkyina airfield through the Chinese political axe." ”
