The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army (AAA) was massing heavily in southeastern Burma and was about to launch an attack on Thailand, which made the Japanese 18th Front Army and the Thai* army entrenched in Thailand very nervous. Affected by www.biquge.info the terrain, there was only one way for the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to attack Thailand, and that was to cross the Ta Non Thaung Mountains from Mae Sot. So, the Japanese army also focused its defense there.

The four divisions and regiments under the 18th Front Army of the Japanese Army, one independent mixed brigade, and one engineer corps headquarters, except for the independent mixed 29th brigade and the 5th engineer corps headquarters deployed in Yangon to control the overall situation, the remaining four divisions and regiments were all deployed on the front line of the Ta Nien Ta Weng mountain range, preparing to block the anti-Japanese national salvation army. Not only that, but the main forces of the Thai * army were also pulled to the front by the Japanese themselves. They did this with only one purpose, that is, to resist the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, so that the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army would hit their heads in front of their defense line and bleed, preferably with heavy losses. Then gather superior forces, defeat the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and completely eliminate them.

Mae Sot is next to the Don Ong River, although it is only a small river with a width of only thirty or forty meters. However, the Japanese built a strong defensive line along the river. Together with the Wangbin River, 40 kilometers east of Mae Sot, the Japanese were able to build multiple lines of defense with the help of favorable terrain. Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura, commander of the Japanese 18th Front, even claimed that they had deployed a steel defensive line.

"Your Excellency, Commander, in accordance with your orders, the 15th Division and the 22nd Division have been deployed to the front line of the Dangweng River. The 4th and 56th Divisions were deployed along the Wangbin River. In addition, the 1st and 2nd armies of the Thai Army are deployed on the front line of the Don Ong River. The 3rd Army was deployed along the line of the Wangbin River. We relied on rivers and mountains to build a strong line of defense. If the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army dares to attack, we will surely let them bleed in front of our defensive line. Major General Kunitaro Yamada, Chief of Staff of the 18th Front, smiled.

"Yo Xi, very nice. This time, we have built a steel defense line and are waiting for the Shina to attack. I was very much looking forward to seeing the corpses of the Shina piled up like a hill in front of our defensive line. Let their blood stain all the waters of the Danongg River red. As for the Wangbin River, will they be able to hit it here? I seriously doubt it. Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura looked proud. It was as if the defense line they had built had successfully resisted the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

"Nakamura-kun, our defense line is already strong. The defense line is dozens of kilometers long, and more than 200,000 people are deployed. If the Chinese want to break through our defenses, it is almost unlikely. The commander of the Japanese-Thai forces, Lieutenant General Moriya Seiji, also had a look of confidence.

He was originally the chief of staff of the 18th Front, but after Thailand defected to Japan, Japan himself coerced the Thai army to accept the leadership of Japan. And Moriya Seir was promoted to lieutenant general and became the commander of the Japanese-Thai forces. 600,000 Thai* troops, all under his command. However, the combat effectiveness of the Thai* army was so bad that Lieutenant General Moriya Tsir believed that tens of thousands of men of the 18th Front Army would be enough to easily defeat the Thai* army. Therefore, this time to deal with the offensive of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, the 18th Front Army is still the main force.

"Well, Moriya-kun, in this battle, the Thai* army must fully cooperate with us. It will take some time for the 2nd Army to arrive. So, we can't afford to take it lightly. Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura said.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Lieutenant General Moriya nodded repeatedly. Even though the two have the same military rank, in terms of position, Lieutenant General Moriya Seiji still belongs to the leadership of Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura.

"Send a telegram asking Shibata-kun and Isata-kun if their troops are ready for battle?" Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura ordered.

The 15th Division and the 22nd Division were both divisions that were wiped out on the battlefield in Burma, and the current two divisions, from officers to soldiers, are all newly rebuilt. Soldiers were recruited from the Japanese mainland, and officers were drawn from the mainland and other units. These two divisions have only been formed for a short time, they are still in the run-in period, and their combat effectiveness has not yet been formed. If it weren't for the military emergency, Lieutenant General Nakamura Akito would not have been willing to send these two divisions to the battlefield.

However, the 2nd Division will need time to be transferred from Ram Yin to Thailand. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army pressed forward step by step, and did not give them time to prepare at all. Therefore, when there was no way, they could only take the two newly formed divisions on top.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander." Major General Kunitaro Yamada nodded, and immediately sent a telegram.

"Nakamura-kun, when will the 2nd Army arrive? Any news? Lieutenant General Moriya asked.

Relying solely on the strength of the 18th Front Army and the Thai* Army, it may be able to withstand the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. However, it may not be so easy to defeat the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and annihilate them as much as possible. If the more than 90,000 elite troops of the 2nd Army arrived, their chances of victory would undoubtedly be much higher.

"It's not clear yet, but the chief of the temple has already given the order. However, they came from Lanyin and it took time. It is expected to arrive by the middle of next month. Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura said.

"Then it doesn't seem like a problem. It will take us a month to make the people of China shed their blood in front of our steel defenses. Then, when the 2nd Army arrived, it launched a counterattack and defeated the Chinese in one fell swoop. He even invaded Burma in one fell swoop and completely wiped out the Chinese people. Lieutenant General Moriya said.

"Yo Xi, that's exactly what I want." Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura nodded repeatedly.

If they can wipe out the main force of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army on the battlefield in Thailand, and then invade the territory of Burma and take the whole of Burma in one fell swoop. Then, they will become the saviors of the Southern Army and the heroes of shame for the Southern Army. The future career is even brighter. Maybe you will soon be promoted and become a general.

As soon as he thought of this, Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Damn the Shina people, come and attack. Our defense line is ready, just waiting for you to bang your head and bleed! Lieutenant General Akito Nakamura muttered.

For their defensive line, these Japanese generals were undoubtedly full of confidence. However, this is nothing more than what they think. Whether it can really withstand the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will not be known until after the battle.
