"Idiot! Waste" kept coming from the Prime Minister's office in Downing Street.

The staff of the Prime Minister's Office was silent, since the outbreak of the war, the coalition forces have not achieved any decent victories, and there is no good news. How long has MacDonald's Socialist Workers' Party been in government? A series of failures have almost brought the party's political career to an end.

In the prime minister's office, Baldwin and Churchill looked at MacDonald, who was almost mad, and there was no sarcasm left, only pity and rejoicing. Such a situation was something they did not expect, and if it was a Conservative cabinet, it would be almost the same fate. They are glad that the Conservative Party was forced to step down, otherwise it would have been the same as the Social Workers' Party, and their support rate would have fallen to a freezing point. But now they don't have the heart to replace it at all, and even if they do, it's not now.

Baldwin finally said, "Calm down, Macdonald, no one wants this to happen." ”

MacDonald roared, "Calm down? How do you calm me down? The three divisions, with such a 'bang', were all gone. The loss of tens of thousands of people in a minute, tens of thousands of people! ”

Baldwin and Churchill smiled wryly.

MacDonald gritted his teeth and said, "Dannat knows that the situation is not right, but why did he send so many troops up. Well, Myitkyina we have to take it, we have to send people up, but can we not send a bunch of stupid idiots up there? The Chinese buried so many explosives in such a short time, as long as they were careful, they could find traces. Don't they all have eyes? ”

Churchill frowned and said, "Your Excellency, you also know that it is a battlefield. The eyes of the soldiers are on the enemy, and it was at night, understand at night? The strange atmosphere made the soldiers nervous, attracted the attention of the soldiers, the dark night covered the clues, it was difficult to detect, and no one had ever done this, who would have thought that the Chinese would use such a damn method? Admiral Dannatt is the best general in the army, and his decision is very correct. ”

MacDonald said angrily, "Correct? I heard a big joke. He was disobeying military orders, and he should continue to attack Myitkyina. Instead of running into the western mountains of Myitkyina to hunt. ”

Churchill shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister." What was the order given by the War Department to capture Myitkyina? The more fundamental purpose was to cut off the Chinese supply of their troops in Assam, so that they would not dare to attack the empty Gangetic plains of India when supplies were scarce. They were able to do the same by holding the lines of communication in western Myitkyina. The only advantage of forcibly capturing Myitkyina is to show people that the Chinese are not invincible. We have the power to defeat them. and even capture their strategic points. ”

MacDonald yelled, "Since that's the case. But why didn't Dannatt do it! ”

Churchill sighed: "Your Excellency, it depends. The reason why Myitkyina was attacked before was because there were enough troops to achieve two goals at the same time. But after falling for the tricks of the Chinese. We are already underarmed, and a forced attack may have a chance to capture Myitkyina, but it will also inflict heavy casualties on our troops. If we don't have enough troops, what are we going to do to hold Myitkyina? In the blink of an eye, it was counterattacked back by the Chinese, the troops were finished, and the Chinese reopened the supply line, what was the consequence? ”

The expression on MacDonald's face suddenly stiffened, and he was certainly not stupid to sit in the position of prime minister. What would be the consequences of that? The armored mechanized troops of China's First Route Army, which can crush hundreds of thousands of troops, will sweep across the Gangetic Plain of India, and even most of India

Baldwin sighed and said, "I think we should discuss organizing an expeditionary force to go to the Indian front as soon as possible, and Dannat's Anglo-Burmese army will not be able to support it for long." ”

"Okay"

In the conference room of the headquarters of the Chinese Ministry of National Defense, Li Bufan, Li Huashan, Duan Qirui, Xu Shuzheng, Yang Yongtai, and Wu Di all had ugly faces.

"Kraft candy! Dog skin plaster! Wu Di scolded, he didn't bother himself in the Ministry of Defense during this time, because his military quality was really nothing, and he didn't want to lose the face of the traverser. Unexpectedly, there was a problem in Myitkyina, and the Anglo-Burmese army was stalking like leper dogs on the lines of communication in western Myitkyina.

Li Bufan smiled bitterly: "The other party uses the jungle and mountains to fight and entangle, and it is difficult to clear it in a short time. Originally, we planned to use jungle warfare to entangle with the foreign powers, but we didn't expect it to be used on foreign devils, and they used this method to deal with us first. ”

The situation in the war is ever-changing, and there is no reason why you can take advantage of it, and I can't use it. Two or three hundred thousand troops insisted on fighting in the jungle, and if they wanted to solve it quickly, it was absolutely impossible to do it. Even if the communication line is forcibly opened, it is difficult to destroy the opponent in a short time, and the other side has too many opportunities to ambush and attack the supply team on the hundreds of kilometers of simple highway communication lines.

To put it bluntly, Admiral Dannatt's move is unsolvable, at least in the short term.

Duan Qirui frowned and said, "Then what should I do?" The First Route Army has been resting? ”

Xu Shuzheng said suddenly: "Isn't our bomber empty now?" We can fly in supplies. ”

Li Huashan sighed: "It's not just a matter of materials. If the main force of the First Route Army advances rapidly to the west, how many troops should we leave in Assam? If you leave less, what should you do if the British and Burmese army counterattack? There are too many left, and the offensive force is insufficient. In any case, although the Battle of Assam defeated the main Anglo-Indian forces in one fell swoop, there were 108,000 remnants of the defeated army, plus the local garrison or something, it was not completely without the power to resist. They only had to dwell on it for a while before reinforcements arrived. ”

"This, this" Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng also seemed to have no idea.

Wu Di sighed and said: "'People are shameless, the world is invincible', I can be regarded as a teacher, the world's number one power is also playing tricks, since they can afford to lose this person, what else do we have to say?" After a pause, he said to Li Bufan, "Boss, didn't we plan so far away?" It's a big deal to go according to the original plan. ”

Yang Yongtai immediately said: "'God does not take it, but suffers from it'." We can't help but eat this fat meat in our mouths. After taking the Indochina Peninsula, according to a rough calculation, the amount of property and real estate that can be used is as high as tens of billions of yuan, mainly because many of us overseas Chinese and pro-Chinese families with Chinese blood cannot be moved, otherwise it will be no problem to turn over them. Northeast India is the essence of India, the business area around Kolkata, and the production area of the Ganges Plain. ”

Tens of billions of wealth, what is that concept? At this time, China's annual fiscal revenue was one billion, which was equal to the total fiscal revenue accumulated after decades of not eating or drinking. With this money, not only do we not have to worry about the funds for fighting a war, but there is no problem in building while fighting a war, and China has no shortage of population, so it can be completely done, even if 10 million soldiers are conscripted, it will only be 50 to 1, and it will not affect construction at all.

With such a huge wealth in front of them, but they were stuck and couldn't be eaten, Duan Qirui, Xu Shuzheng and Yang Yongtai were so uncomfortable that they hated Dannat and his Anglo-Burmese army.

Halfway through, Li Bufan said in a deep voice: "It's not that there is no way. ”

"Huh!?" Everyone was taken aback.

Li Bufan got up and opened the curtain behind the conference room, revealing a huge map, pointing to the Bay of Bengal and saying, "Let's go over here." I know that the traffic here is quite bad, and many places are not accessible by car, but the primitive shoulder-mounted horse-drawn horse is no problem. I think that's enough for the First Route Army to transfer mechanized tank units and one corps to cooperate with the Third Route Army in attacking. ”

Xu Shuzheng smiled bitterly: "The British will soon send troops to reinforce them, maybe they have already come, I'm afraid that time will be too late." ”

Li Bufan thought for a while and said, "This is not a big problem. The British want rapid reinforcements, then there is only sea transport, and we can send submarine forces to the Indian Ocean to wait for them. ”

Wu Di was overjoyed, and jumped up and said, "Good way!" Let Li Hengshan go, keep them all to the Indian Ocean and leave to feed Wang Ba. ”

"No way!" Li Bufan immediately vetoed it, others didn't know what Li Hengshan meant, but he knew. Li Hengshan, as his adjutant, is with a base car, and now Li Hengshan is escorting the transport in Southeast Asian waters, specifically to attract the submarines of the great powers, so as to clean up the submarines of the great powers, calculate the time, the submarine forces of the great powers should almost arrive.

Li Hengshan's anti-submarine with the base car, that is, in order to slaughter the great powers cleanly, so that the great powers are afraid, and they no longer dare to send submarines to send them to death, so that China's sea supplies will be much safer from then on, and the holographic scanning of the base car within a radius of 100 kilometers, the submarines of the great powers will have absolutely nothing to hide.

Wu Di naturally knew about this plan, and he was still involved in the planning at that time, so he had to pout his lips and say no more.

Li Huashan said: "The most suitable scope for the operation of our submarine force is in the western Indian Ocean, and if the British army lands in the ports around Bombay to Karachi and takes a train to reinforce the front line, it will also cause us a lot of trouble." We have always been in contact with the anti-colonial forces on the Indian side, and we can give them a little sweetness and let them destroy railways, roads and bridges. ”

"Good! That's it. ”

Dannatt is a famous general in the British army, not only proficient in Western tactics, but also studying traditional Chinese military techniques, even in extremely bad situations, he can repeatedly counterattack. If it weren't for the fact that the Anglo-Indian Assam bloc was defeated so quickly and so badly, it is hard to say what the war would have developed. If he interspersed western Myitkyina with the Assamese side and cooperated with the Assamese Front to besiege the Chinese First Route Army, it would not be impossible for a million-strong army to fight a war of annihilation.

But no matter how the battle situation develops, the high-intensity battle is basically over. Although the Anglo-Burmese army failed to fully achieve its goal and failed to prevent the Chinese from advancing towards India, it undoubtedly delayed a little time and succeeded in containing a large number of elite Chinese troops (to be continued......

PS: Some book friends say that they are engaged in helicopter combat, but in fact, there are already a lot of cheats. In fact, I have researched a lot of information, and the technology at that time was not enough to complete the construction of helicopters. The power of the helicopter was the power of a high-speed oil extractor and a pot wheel axle, which could not be built with the technology at that time, and the materials were not up to par. Personally, I think that writing a book considering the background of the times, in addition to specific cheats, to be powerful, only the effective use of resources will seem more realistic.
