Bago, the temporary command of the Japanese Burmese Front. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoAfter the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army was completely annihilated by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, I trusted the commander of the Burmese Front, Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi, and only then did I receive the news.

With such a result, Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masafumi was also stunned. The attack on Naypyidore from the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was only two days. A division with a full strength of more than 18,000 people was thus resolved. You must know that before the arrival of reinforcements, there were only three such divisions in the entire Burmese front. This seems to mean that it is not very difficult for the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to defeat them.

As soon as he thought of this, Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masato couldn't help but shudder. He seemed to understand that the tactics of dividing troops and fortifying and resisting everywhere were simply a mistake. One that made it easier for the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army to solve their mistakes.

"Nakayong-kun, is our previous tactic really correct?" Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi asked.

"Your Excellency, I can only say that the people of China are stronger than we expected." Taro Nakanaga had a serious face. The 22nd Division was completely annihilated, which made their strength once again urgent. The remaining two divisions and two independent mixed brigades were still very difficult to deal with the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. Even if they end up failing.

"No, we can't stick to the old tactics anymore. Change has to be made. Otherwise, we will be defeated by the Shina people. Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi stood up and stood in front of the military map hanging on the wall, with a solemn expression.

Major General Nakanaga Taro nodded, as the chief of staff of the Burmese Front, his fate and the Burmese Front are naturally tied together. Last time, Lieutenant General Shigesei Aoki's commander Elder Burmese Front was wiped out, and he stayed behind in Mandalay and escaped. However, if the Burmese Front is wiped out again this time, he may not have such good luck. Therefore, he also needs to make the Burmese front win this war as much as possible. In this way, it is in his interest.

However, from Lieutenant General Yamauchi's decision, he also heard a little problem.

"Your Excellency, the Commander, the Chinese have just wiped out the 22nd Division at Nay Pyi Taw, and now they must have led their army south. Taungoo is only 100 kilometers away from Naypyidaw. The 29th Brigade is stationed there, and I am afraid it will be very dangerous. In addition, the 46th Division and the 26th Brigade were far west of the Bago Mountains. If you want to get to Bago, I'm afraid it will take a long time. This is very bad for us. Nakanaga Taro analyzed.

Lieutenant General Yamauchi's face suddenly looked a little unpleasant. Before that, he ordered all departments to divide their troops and garrison them to resist the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. Now, he has tasted the bitter fruits of his own planting.

"Nakayong-kun, we must resist the attack of the Shina until reinforcements arrive. I admit that I made a mistake before and spread out my forces. Now it seems that in that case, it will not be able to resist the attack of the Shina people at all. So, now we need to correct this mistake. The 46th Division and the 26th Brigade had to retreat to Bago. In this way, we can build a defensive line around Bago and hold back the attack of the Chinese people. By the time the reinforcements arrive, we will have enough troops to fight a decisive battle with the Yezhina. "Yamauchi will tell his own plan and plan in the text.

"Yes, Your Excellency, I agree with you. The problem is that we need time, though. Major General Taro Nakanaga said.

"Let the independent * independent mixed into the 29th Brigade buy us enough time. Send a telegram to Tanaka-kun and ask him to find a way to hold out in Tooo for three to five days. That way, we'll have plenty of time to shrink our forces. "Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi pinned his hopes on the 29th Brigade led by Major General Nobuo Tanaka.

However, the 22nd Division had only resisted the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army for two days before it was wiped out. The 29th Brigade was formed independently, but with more than 7,000 people, could it withstand the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army for three to five days?

"Your Excellency, there is no doubt that this is a great test for Tanaka-kun and the 29th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade." Major General Taro Nakanaga said. Obviously, he also doubted that the 29th Brigade would be able to accomplish this task.

"I believe that Tanaka-kun and the warriors of the 29th Brigade will be able to accomplish this task." Yamauchi will not know where the confidence comes from.

"Nakayong-kun, send a telegram to the 46th Division and the 26th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade, asking them to immediately abandon their previous garrison and retreat to Bago." Lieutenant General Yamauchi then ordered.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander." Major General Nakanaga Taro nodded, he knew that Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masafumi was planning to shrink his forces, and then desperately prepare for a decisive battle with the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

After Major General Taro Nakanaga left, Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi looked at the military map and fell into deep thought.

He had to admit that the pressure brought to him by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was too great. Although, after the Burmese Front led by Lieutenant General Shigesei Aoki was completely annihilated, he tried his best to overestimate the combat effectiveness of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. However, the 22nd Division was completely annihilated within two days, which once again made him see the strength of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Now, he had to shrink his forces to make it possible to insist that reinforcements arrived.

Although, in order to reorganize the Burmese Front, the Southern Army has decided to send two additional divisions and four independent mixed brigades to reinforce them. That's 60 million reinforcements. However, these reinforcements need to be drawn from the 2nd Front Army as far away as the Malay Peninsula and the 2nd Army as far away as the Indonesian archipelago. Coupled with the deliberate mischief of the Americans, the timing of the arrival of reinforcements was greatly affected. This made Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masato have to buy as much time as possible.

In order to buy time, so that the Japanese troops can shrink together as soon as possible. He would have to sacrifice himself to form the 29th Brigade. Although, this is very unfair to the independent mixed 29th brigade. But what can be done about it? For the sake of the Great Nichi* Empire, they had to sacrifice for it.

Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masafumi's mood couldn't help but feel a little better.

After the order of Lieutenant General Masafumi Yamauchi was issued, the 46th Division of the Japanese Army and the 26th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade, which were stationed west of the Bago Mountains, began to abandon their garrisons and march towards Bago. Of course, the generals and soldiers of these two divisions were also quite dissatisfied with this, thinking that Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masafumi was commanding indiscriminately. But the military orders were like a mountain, and they had no choice but to obey them. (To be continued.) )
