The Thunder troops that entered Thailand advanced very smoothly, and it took only one day. The Jewish forces and Burmese servants advanced more than 100 miles, and their advance was not simply to capture territory, but to clear the Japanese army and drive all the Thais living there deep into Thailand. The opening of the Henan passage made it possible for Thunder to no longer have to go through great trouble to recruit refugees, and a large number of hungry Henan refugees followed the designated route south to Yunnan, and Thunder only had to pay very little food and supplies to the local government, and these refugees would be safely sent into Myanmar.

Zhao Zhi now has people, what he lacks now is the land that can feed these people, northern Myanmar is mountainous, there is not a lot of land suitable for farming, those jungles that cover the sky are still very useful, Zhao Zhi is still reluctant to cut them now. Occupying the land in Thailand to open up the land and plant has become Zhao Zhi's main means of resettlement of subsequent refugees, not to mention that the smaller the population of Thailand, the more beneficial it is for Thunder to take over Thailand, rather than waiting for his troops to be attacked by Thai civilians, it is better to drive them away directly, and giving the Thai royal family a headache is also one of Zhao Zhi's means against the enemy.

In the early stage, hundreds of thousands of refugees planted sweet potatoes in Myanmar have already harvested a bumper harvest, and the harvested sweet potatoes are enough for millions of refugees to eat for half a year, as long as they can survive until the rice harvest season this year. Thunder has more than 3 million Chinese refugees in Myanmar.3 million people are not much if they are placed in China, but this is Myanmar, after Thunder recruited a large number of Burmese young men to join the army, Myanmar's current population is less than 5 million, and more than two-thirds of the 5 million Burmese people are old and weak, women and children, if Thunder expands faster in South Asia than Zhao Zhi expected, maybe the number of young and strong people in Myanmar will continue to decline, because Zhao Zhi needs more Burmese mercenaries to fight with the Japanese army.

The smooth expansion of Jingdong Airport also allowed a large number of Thunder fighters left in Taunggyi and Mandalay to Jingdong, and now except for the two fighter squadrons and one bomber squadron left in Qinglongping, Shanxi, all the fighter units of the Thunder are concentrated in Jingdong. "Boss, let me tell you, the Japanese army must have an airfield and fighter plane unit in Thailand, although my pilots don't know much about Japanese planes, as long as you can get me Japanese planes, my pilots will definitely be able to fly them into the sky." The old Hans, who was in charge of the fighter planes, had been pestering Zhao Zhi for the past few days, lobbying Zhao Zhi to keep an eye on the Japanese planes for the fighter troops.

The victory in the naval battle allowed the United States to regain control of the Pacific Ocean, and even American warplanes began to take to the air to bomb Japanese targets in the Philippines. Before Pearl Harbor, Japan claimed to be able to produce more than 100 fighters a week, but now they can't produce 100 planes a month, and this productivity simply can't keep up with the rate of loss of aircraft.

The resumption of the route allowed the Nationalist government to receive long-awaited American military aid, and the Thunder also received the supplies stipulated in the employment agreement, and the arrival of 30 P-51 Mustang fighters and 20 B-29 bombers made the elder Hans happy for a week. But the problems that followed were also apparent, the number of pilots recruited by the Thunder abroad was far greater than the number of fighters they currently had, and after the elder Hans racked his brains to equip each fighter with a chief and a co-pilot, he had more than 100 pilots under him who had to serve as ground crew.

Lang wasted resources was shameful, so at the moment when the fighters were nervous, Old Hans hit the idea on the Japanese fighters, and he didn't know where he knew that the Japanese army had a military airfield in Thailand, so he ran to pester Zhao Zhi to predetermine the Japanese fighters that might be captured. Not only did Zhao Zhi feel helpless, but even the combat staff officers in Zhao Zhi's command were amused by the persistence of the old Hans, this is not even a word, this old boy has already taken the fighters of the Japanese army as his own, no wonder Mr. will hand over the fighter troops to him to take charge of.

Helplessly, Zhao Zhi persuaded Old Hans to go back with a smile, these are all technical arms that Thunder must rely on, not to mention that Old Hans is indeed a qualified air combat commander, so no matter what, Zhao Zhi has to be polite to Old Hans. "Contact Mo Lun and ask him to immediately organize food and ammunition to come to Jingdong, the army is about to start a large-scale war, and it is necessary to ensure the smooth flow of logistics and supply." Yu Dazhi sat in Mandalay, the liberated Mo Lun returned to take charge of Thunder's logistics and supply, and the food and drink of hundreds of thousands of troops had to be handled by Mo Lun, Zhao Zhi estimated that when this battle was over, Mo Lun would be able to lose a lot.

Rice purchased from the Kunming Jewish gathering point was given priority to the troops, and canned food produced by Jewish factories was also given priority to the troops, and there were dozens of Jewish military factories serving Thunder, and military uniforms, military shoes, underwear, and military blankets were all ordered products. The war is too expensive, even if Zhao Zhi learns the debt order model of the United States, and has a large number of Burmese gold and jewelry as a backing, by now, Zhao Zhi has already owed those Jewish businessmen ** debts, if they force Zhao Zhi to repay the debt, Thunder will immediately declare bankruptcy.

If you can't figure it out, you won't just count it, anyway, Zhao Zhi is now in debt, and those Jews living in Kunming still have to rely on the power of thunder to survive, if Zhao Zhi is forced to be anxious, as long as Zhao Zhi says a word, the Nationalist Government will immediately drive them, the Jews who have lost their nationality, back to the sea to feed the fish. The United States and the Soviet Union had already gone to war with Germany, and all the British and French colonies had organized armies to fight the Germans, and the Jews brought to China by Zhao Zhi did not have to struggle to survive in the war.

The Jewish merchant community liked to hold together, and with their rich pockets, with their various small workshops, the Jews in Yunnan were prosperous, and in just two years, all kinds of objects produced by Jews filled the streets and shops of Kunming. A large number of machine tools brought back by Zhao Zhi from Europe made machines and parts for the Jewish factories, and more machines and parts were transported to the Kuomintang by road, while the Jewish arsenals produced weapons and ammunition in large quantities, the arsenals in the Kuomintang areas were also opened one after another, and machine guns and cannons could not be made for the time being, but the use of Hanyang-made in the front-line troops of the Nationalist army has been alleviated, and a large number of Chinese rifles have begun to be assembled for the troops.

More than 2 million Jews converted the barren hills in the settlements into fields, and from the second year onwards, the Jewish settlements were not only self-sufficient in food, but also had surplus food to supply the troops, and it was precisely for this reason that Zhao Zhi dared to recruit refugees into Burma when the grain harvest was poor. Food in the war-torn season is more effective than any other big truth, and if Zhao Zhi has no food in his hands, no matter how desperate the refugees are, they will not go south to Myanmar.

Refugees and food are Zhao Zhi's two trump cards to control Myanmar, the purge policy of Myanmar has caused a sharp decrease in the number of adult men in Myanmar, the number of Burmese natives in northern Myanmar has been less than 300,000, and the influx of a large number of Chinese refugees has made northern Myanmar now no different from China. The refugees still work according to the habits in China, speak Chinese, wear Chinese cardigans, and celebrate the New Year according to the same customs in China, and even the refugees who have migrated from the whole village have built ancestral halls in northern Myanmar, and if nothing else, they will continue the clan inheritance in Myanmar.

The first cut off the bloodline inheritance of the Burmese natives, this is the first step of Zhao Zhi in charge of Myanmar, the second step is the subtle influence, the arrival of Chinese refugees has brought the impact of traditional Chinese culture, especially the Southwest Associated University in Myanmar The use of Chinese language teaching, if you want to learn culture, you must be able to speak Chinese, and Zhao Zhi is also ready to vigorously promote Chinese characters in Myanmar, and so the Burmese people can't even keep the script that belongs to them, they can only choose Chinese characters as the official language.

A solid rear is extremely important to the Thunder, and without the flickering rear, the tactics that the Thunder are good at cannot be played. Zhao Zhi originally only wanted to have a place to stay, relying on his memory of being decades ahead of others to make a fortune, Shanghai is where he started, but the United States is the place he wants to go to the most, the United States before World War II is not enough, but by making war money, the United States after World War II quickly rose to become a military power. Zhao Zhi also cited a certain statement in the Internet forums in his previous life, saying that the United States secretly colluded with Germany in the early days of World War II, or the British and French coalition forces would not have lost to the German army so easily, and the reason why the United States rose so quickly was precisely because of the benefits of the fisherman.

It is precisely because of these memories that Zhao Zhi wants to catch the express train of the United States, and the formation of the mercenary force was just for self-preservation, and only strength is the guarantee of survival in troubled times. However, with the change of the situation and the emergence of the Lockman family, the blood in Zhao Zhi's bones burst out again, and the growth of thunder and the expansion of territory allowed Zhao Zhi to see the arrival of a brilliant experience. It doesn't end well to be a separatist warlord in China, but if Zhao Zhi is more than enough to be a separatist leader in South Asia, even in the era before Zhao Zhi crossed, there were many separatist warlords in small countries in South Asia.

Obtaining the duke status recognized by the British royal family, Zhao Zhi has the qualification to be in charge of Burma, regardless of whether the Japanese army surrenders or not, Zhao Zhi will not lose reason in the general truth. Zhao Zhi wants to build Burma into a stable rear of thunder, as long as his plan is completed before the surrender of the Japanese army and Germany, even if Britain comes to find the account after the end of World War II, Zhao Zhi can ignore it, and the United States and France are in front.
