The Tatmadaw military headquarters, Aung San and Min Aung and others have begun to move to underground air raid rooms. They don't know what the situation is outside, but the Sino-US joint air force has launched an air raid on Rangoon as promised, and the next expeditionary force will advance according to the original plan.

A wave of joy rose in Aung San's heart, the next thing is the expeditionary force to occupy Yangon, and with the loss of Yangon, the rear of the Japanese army will inevitably be empty, and the next is the expeditionary force to drive out the Japanese army, and the general trend of Burma will be decided.

However, the Chinese and Americans are not entirely credible, after all, they are allies with the British, will Burma continue to return to the British after this battle? I think even if the Americans agree, the Chinese do not necessarily agree, who wants to let others sleep soundly on the side of the bed?

Myanmar can take advantage of this gap to find a way to survive.

As Aung San pondered these things, he didn't notice that Min'ang was no longer in the bomb shelter. Along with Min'ang's dozen or so bodyguards, they disappeared.

In my panic just now, I didn't even notice that this guy was gone. Aung San was shocked, this guy shouldn't have any crooked thoughts, right?

"Guards! Guard! As soon as Aung San finished speaking, a crisp gunshot rang out. Aung San felt that he was not good, and without even taking the coat and military uniform that he had put on the chair, he grabbed a Southern Type 14 pistol on the table, held it in his hand, and tried to escape through the small door.

Suddenly, there was a dull slamming of the door, and Aung San was about to turn back, only to see several soldiers wearing Type 90 Japanese steel helmets rushing in, these men were holding Hyakshi*, and the muzzles of black holes were aimed at Aung San.

Aung San was surprised, but saw Min Aung come out from behind.

"General Aung San, there's a war going on outside, where do you want to go?" Min Angle asked, with a bit of smug arrogance in his words.

When Aung San saw this, he knew that his guards outside must have been leveled by these people. It seems that he was still careless, and sent all the soldiers out, even Kun Sha left, but he was relieved that Min Ang stayed in front of him.

"Commander Min'ang, kill me, how do you explain to the Chinese?" Aung San is still making his final struggle.

Min Aung sneered, "For Chinese and Americans, it doesn't matter whether it's Min Aung or Aung San, the important thing is that they need proxies in Myanmar." I'll kill you now, and no one will know. And I will become the commander of the Burmese army. ”

Aung San sneered, "If I die, the Burmese army will be torn apart, and the independence of Myanmar will be postponed indefinitely!" ”

Min'ang walked over to the chair in front of him and sat down, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the orderly behind him handed him a cut cigar cigarette, and he himself lightly struck a match and lit the cigar in his mouth.

"I'm not talking nonsense to you anymore. Come, take him out. Find a place where no one is and shoot indiscriminately. With a wave of his hand, several soldiers behind him stepped forward and pushed Aung San out.

Aung San broke free with both hands, "Lao Tzu can walk by himself!" ”

A few soldiers escorted Aung San out, Min Aung raised his hand to look at his watch, now the scheduled time was almost up, thinking that the ground troops of the expeditionary force had launched attacks one after another, he said to people: "Throw all the corpses out, and lie that it was the Japanese attack." The signal corps immediately contacted the expeditionary force! ”

After saying these orders, there was a rush of gunfire outside, and Min Aung sneered, and seemed to say to himself: "There is no more Aung San in Myanmar!" ”

……

News of the expeditionary force's attack gathered from all over the country to the underground command post where Shozo Riverside was. Now it is not only Yangon that has all kinds of headaches, because of the defection of the Burmese army, which has led to the porous defense line in many parts of Tonggu, and the expeditionary force has taken the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, and now the Tonggu defense line has collapsed, and the troops have been in chaos.

"Your Excellency Commander, the reinforcements of the expeditionary force have arrived, the new weapons they use, the offensive is sharp, and the airport, dock and other key departments have been lost. While they haven't attacked us yet, let's move around. Chief of Staff Saito walked over and said.

"Let me think about it." Riverside Zhengsan opened his right hand, five fingers scratched Tie Qing's scalp, and his eyes looked vacantly at an incandescent lamp not far away.

"Your Excellency, Commander, it's too late if you don't leave. We still have 100,000 troops in Burma, and a temporary loss does not mean our defeat, and we can regain it after we regroup. Another officer was a little anxious to persuade him, and Saito motioned for him to stop talking about it and let Kawabe Shozo think about it.

Kawabe Shozo was indeed thinking, and at the moment he felt a little lost and angry in his heart, but he clearly knew that this could not be the main domination of his emotions, otherwise he would make irrational judgments.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and then said, "Okay, let's transfer!" ”

When Saito heard this order, he immediately ordered the others to move. The garrison of the headquarters served as cover, and they all removed their ranks from their epaulettes, and began to come out of the dark passages under the escort of the guards, breaking through to the place where the large troops of the Tonggu line were located.

……

Gunfire rang out in Yangon City for a whole day, and the officers and men of the 1st Special Attack Regiment used helicopters to attack everywhere and sweep up the Japanese troops hiding in some buildings or on the periphery.

After the airport was occupied, the fighters of the two squadrons of the Sino-US Joint Air Force flew and landed, and although the Yangon airport was damaged a lot in the air raid, most of the supplies were still retained. In this battle, nearly 20 Japanese fighters were captured at the airport alone, as well as abundant equipment and materials such as gasoline and ammunition.

The battle between the various units was extremely fierce, and although the Japanese troops in the city fought separately, they resisted stubbornly. Zhu Jingxing, with the officers and men of the special service battalion and a company of the Burmese army, attacked the Japanese Changze Brigade, which was the only formed unit of the Japanese army in the city, and although it was badly damaged by the air raids, they still put up organized resistance. These guys occupied the houses in the city, set up machine guns at the windows, and used various fortifications in the early stage to resist. The special service battalion led by Zhu Jingxing was equipped with the latest American-made bazookas, and in the battle of attacking the city, the machine gunners took cover, and the bazooka hands knelt on one knee and aimed at the window with one shot, which immediately blew up the Japanese army beyond recognition.

This style of play surprised the Burmese army, but Zhu Jingxing said a little unwillingly: "The ground troops did not come in, the tank troops came in, and these buildings were all bombed together, why did there be so many things." ”

The troops began to advance to their respective targets in an orderly manner, and it was not until it was dark that the gunfire gradually dimmed, but there were still sporadic Japanese troops in the city, and the Chinese and Burmese troops formed a search force and began to search and arrest the whole city.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Huang Zheng, the front-line commander of the expeditionary force, Zhu Jingxing, the commander of the special service battalion, as well as the liaison officer Khun Sha, and many Burmese army generals gathered together.

Zhu Jingxing came over and reported to Huang Zheng: "Hu Liqun took people to the Japanese headquarters, but after attacking it, there was no one inside. The brothers discovered the secret passage and thought that Shozo had already escaped when he came to the river. ”

When he said this, Zhu Jingxing felt a little ashamed, if he caught the Hebian Zhengsan gang, this war might be able to end earlier, he added, "I have already sent someone to search." ”

Huang Zheng felt that it was nothing, he waved his hand and said: "It is already beyond my expectations to be able to take Yangon in less than a day, as for the riverside Zhengsan, this time I ran and next time I will see where they are going?" We have overcome all kinds of inconveniences in command and communication in this battle, and it is very good that we can fight like this. ”

These words of encouragement made Zhu Jingxing feel better, he didn't ask for any promotion to make a fortune, after fighting a bad battle, he was already very lucky to survive intact.

At this time, Khun Sha came over and said to Huang Zheng, "Colonel Zhao, General Aung San is here. ”

"Hmm." After Huang Zheng nodded, he lifted the military hat on his head, dragged the training uniform on his body, and then walked towards Aung San with a group of officers.

"Hello, General Aung San! Thank you for planning ahead of time. Huang Zheng walked over with a cordial attitude, and shook hands with Aung San without humility or arrogance.

Aung San also stretched out his right hand to shake hands with him and said, "Colonel Zhao has an overreputation, the Chinese and Burmese army is an allied force, and it is also our responsibility to cooperate with you in the war." ”

Khun Sha on the side was in charge of translating, but when he translated this, he was secretly scolding Aung San in his heart that this guy is really a politician, and he had to put a gun to his head this morning, if he hadn't forced him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have raised an army.

At this time, I talked with the general of the expeditionary force about what the two armies are allied forces, and they are like a mother.

"Colonel Zhao, please!" Aung San waved his hand, quite the demeanor of the master.

Huang Zheng was also polite to him, and led a cadre of generals into the hall of the Burmese army headquarters with a smile.

I have to say that Aung San is still very meticulous, and at such a critical juncture, he has taken down all the Japanese military flags from the main hall of the Burmese Army Headquarters and replaced them with the Chinese national flag, which can be described as a deep intention.

Aung San and others guided Huang Zheng and his entourage into the conference room, there were too many things at the moment, and there were many things they needed to discuss, so the senior generals entered the conference room to discuss, I am afraid that they would not be able to come out for a while.

Huang Zheng might as well sit directly at the opposite side of the conference room, and Aung San sat down at the front seat here, but fortunately, the table in the conference room is long, so there is no distinction between priority and priority.

"General Aung San, time is pressing, there are many things, so I won't be polite. Let's get straight to the topic, let's talk about the common defense of Yangon first. Huang Zheng went straight to the point, was not polite or formal, and asked questions directly.

Aung San naturally has nothing to say, he said that Colonel Zhao is an expert in urban defense, so please arrange it.

Then, he asked General Ng Teng Win to summarize the situation of the Burmese army in the city, and after listening to the situation of the Burmese army, Huang Zheng deployed to the map.

The meeting lasted nearly three hours, and everything from Yangon's urban defense to liaison and manhunt was resolved. At the meeting, Huang Zheng said: "The main generals and personnel of your army are here, so I think it is better to establish an independent government of Burma." ”

As soon as these words came out, Aung San and the others were surprised that their jaws were about to drop.
