"Shut up, I will never surrender to the Japanese," the general snapped. "Someone, give me his gun."

The guards came up, seized Hamid's weapons on the spot, and prepared to push him out and escort him to the gendarmerie company.

"Don't tie him up." The general suddenly stopped the guards, "You go and find the commander who just blocked the Japanese tank, I have to give him a medal." Apparently he was just afraid that the other party was carrying a weapon, and seemed to want to talk to this one again.

Two guards stood in the doorway, and the rest went out to find the commander of the blockade.

"So, you think the Japanese are on the safe side?" Alexander's voice softened noticeably.

"General, I have suppressed Jewish partisans in the Middle East, fought the Italians and Germans in North Africa, what kind of enemy have not seen?"

The general did not speak and sat down.

"IMHO, it is impossible for us to defeat the Japanese, they are far superior to Hitler's army."

"It's just your opinion."

"I think you will agree with me that two well-trained Punjabi soldiers can be exchanged for a German soldier. The Germans had better fighting skills, but the Indians had the upper hand in bayonet battles. ”

The general was silent and nodded slightly.

"And the combat effectiveness of the Indian soldiers is twice as strong as that of the Burmese soldiers; 3 to 5 times stronger than those beggar-like Chinese soldiers. Such an exchange ratio was commonly used by the General Staff before the war when conducting routine statistics. ”

"Well, almost."

"However, even Rommel's army was still not comparable to the Japanese army. We can't count the Japanese in this way. ”

"What do you think?" The general asked, holding his head on his hands.

"A Japanese soldier is not to be feared, but a group of Japanese soldiers cannot be defeated, they can march in the jungle for days without eating, drinking, sleeping, and then immediately go into battle. IMHO, they are a catastrophe from heaven in this era, and their strength is perhaps comparable only to Genghis Khan's army, and even a professional Punjabi soldier like me is proud of himself. ”

Hamid's words were not taught to him by the Southern Authority, but he himself realized it from the recent series of failures.

Although the general had only intended to hear what the traitor had to say, it did touch the fear in the general's heart. When he retreated from Dunkirk, he was in danger, because his superiors had hinted that the Germans would stop at the last minute. For what reason, the superiors were secretive, and he didn't guess. But now the situation is very different, he is facing the most vicious enemy, except that he has not heard of the Japanese army cannibalism, and has done all the other most terrible things.

"I'll be there at dawn when the reinforcements arrive."

"Do you really believe that those Chinese who do not have a martial tradition and a sense of military honor can save you? No kidding. ”

"I believe our alliance is reliable." The general said categorically.

"Come, take him down." He waved his hand to let the guards not far away, "You don't have to use handcuffs, you can lock up the guard company first." Give him something to eat. ”

Hamid smiled and followed the guards away, knowing that the general's heart was shaken, and the main reason preventing him from giving in was only the last vestige of poor pride. All it takes is a little more pressure on Iida's army, and the British lord will kneel and beg for mercy. When he walked out, he took a look at Lin Xiuxuan, who was standing outside waiting. Hamid, who is 6 feet 2 inches tall, squinted his eyes and glanced contemptuously at Lin Xiuxuan, who was a little shorter.

Lin Xiuxuan and Lieutenant Pierce walked into the headquarters together, and Alexander was taken aback, he did not know that there were Chinese soldiers in this encirclement.

When he shook hands with Pierce, his eyes looked at the identity tag on Lin Xiuxuan's chest.

"You're from Division 96?"

"Yes."

The two shook hands.

"Who commanded the battle?"

"It's a Chinese captain." Pierce replied truthfully.

"Do you have anti-tank experience?"

"No, I just used flares to indicate the target for the anti-aircraft guns, and there weren't really many Japanese troops interspersed with them." As he spoke, another burst of gunfire rang out outside, and the conversation was interrupted for a moment.

"Your English is very good, better than all the Chinese liaison officers I've ever met."

"General, we don't have much time, we must launch a counterattack immediately." Lin Xiuxuan didn't want to talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"I'm thinking about a counterattack plan."

"Fighters must immediately take off from Achab and attack every Japanese pontoon bridge on the Irrawaddy River."

"It's so late that the pilot can't see the bridges." The general waved his hand, he didn't like the junior officers to talk about tactics, "However, I have arranged for the plane to take off at dawn to attack. ”

"It was too late then, and I promised the Japanese that the pontoons were brightly lit and the planes could see it. Otherwise, how did they get here? ”

Of course, he knew that the pontoon bridge was brightly lit, and Ma Qiang could see the fire and traffic there from a distance of two kilometers.

The general hesitated for a moment, feeling that what this person said also made some sense, but he couldn't change his order in front of him, that would be too shameless.

"I know your Division Commander Yu, what regiment are you in the 96th Division?" Alexander politely digressed the subject.

"At the moment, every minute that passes, the hostile situation is getting serious. Immediate action must be taken. "Where does Lin Xiuxuan care about these politeness, he has no position in the 96th Division, and the military uniform is from the Japanese guns.

"Captain, I have a complete wing of the enemy in front of me, and there is only a way to wait for dawn and wait for the cooperation of our troops on the periphery." The general spread his hands, and he casually mentioned the enemy situation, hoping that the junior officer would stop pestering the command.

"I'm afraid it's more than that. The 14th Tank Wing has already joined the 214th Wing. At dawn, their forces will also be strengthened by a regimental Araki detachment. ”

"But the current organization of our army is very chaotic and needs time to reorganize." The general stumbled out the truth of his weakest of things.

"It's too late to regroup, but your Australian Brigade and the Anglo-Burmese Division's cavalry regiment can still fight. The Indians are unreliable and are planning a rebellion, and they need to send troops to arrest all the officers. ”

"How do you know?"

The general was taken aback. The person in front of him said that the enemy situation was the same as the truth, but he could not confirm it, but when he mentioned the British troops who were still capable of fighting, it was all true, and it was a secret that Alexander did not dare to show to anyone, and he had not yet grasped the unreliable things of the Indian army.

"I ...... As I passed by the Indian troops, I saw a brief shootout at their headquarters. Lin used a far-fetched reason to try to confuse the past, but in fact, Qin Xiaosu listened to the radio station of the southern organ and learned that the Indians were waiting for news from Hamil.

"Let me think about ......"

The general became nervous, and the Indian army of several thousand people rebelled, which meant that his success rate of breaking through changed from small to zero.

"I have an elite army that can go and suppress the Indians."

"You can send my gendarmerie troops."

"When they see the gendarmes approaching, they will get into trouble in advance, but they will not guard against the Chinese." Just give me the Indian Major who just walked out. ”

"What do you want him to do?"

"Let them know they're afraid, of course."

"Does it work?"

"This is the Chinese way, you wait and see." Lin said and looked at his watch, "It's still too late, in an hour, I can suppress the Indians, at least so that they don't dare to make trouble when they break through." ”

Lin Shuo was full of confidence, and he couldn't help but believe it, although he had only seen this strange Chinese captain for a few minutes, but he broke a few things, giving him a strong sense of trust.

"Good. I'll give him to you. ”

Hamid was holding his coffee, waiting for the results in the guardhouse, confident in his incorruptible tongue. Hearing the footsteps outside, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, it seemed that the British pride was nothing more than that.

Lin Xiuxuan kicked the door open, came up and slapped the coffee off his hand. The two men in the back held down the cow-tall Indian, and Lieutenant Pierce came up and put a cloth bag on Hamid's head.

"What are you going to do......

No one paid any attention to him, and several soldiers pushed him into a jeep, and then the convoy quickly passed over to the place where several hundred Chinese troops were stationed. Along the way, there were constant gunfire all around, and small Japanese troops continued to infiltrate and harass, and the situation was rapidly deteriorating.

Lin's car drove to the station, Tao Mingzhang and several other platoon commanders were anxious like ants on a hot pot, as soon as Lin Xiuxuan left, they felt that they were missing the backbone, and as the gunfire approached, everyone began to worry about whether this guy would be like Chen Zhiping, throw them down and slip away.

"Sir, did you think you weren't coming?" Tao Mingzhang hurriedly greeted the jeep.

"I don't have time to go into details, the situation is urgent, let everyone bring the weapon truck, follow me to the Indian brigade headquarters, and get ready for battle."

"Who's the head-covered guy in the back of the car?" The lieutenant's sharp eyes saw a man sitting in the jeep with his hands and feet tied and his face covered.

"Oh, just a dead man."

Lin didn't explain much and jumped into the passenger seat of the truck.

A slitch of trucks headed for where the Indian troops had stopped. At present, the army is not ready to mutiny, and most of the soldiers do not know the intentions of the upper echelons, but the leading officers have gathered to wait for Hamid, which was revealed in their correspondence with the Southern Agency, and it is a good opportunity for Lin to catch them all.

On the side of the road, about 200 heavily armed Indian soldiers are gathering in roughly company formation, apparently the core of the personnel ready to participate in the operation. A string of trucks drove up to them, alerting them, but it was not the Englishman who saw them disembarking. It seems to be just Chinese passing by.

From inside the tent of the headquarters, a dozen junior officers came out, and they wanted to come out to see what was going on. I saw that several machine gun teams quickly controlled the commanding heights, and the muzzles were aimed at themselves. That's when they realized that things had changed. The Chinese soldiers, who jumped from the back of the truck, quickly took control of the situation and surrounded the officers. The soldier with Thompson* burst into the tent and arrested several of the communications personnel who were delivering the message. Someone tried to pull out a gun, but immediately the soldier next to him hit the head and bled out, and the rest did not dare to move.

Lin walked to the front, followed by a few British soldiers, pushing a big man with a hooded head and face in front of everyone.

"What's going on?" A second lieutenant spreads his hands and makes a gesture of innocence.

Lin ripped the cloth cover off Hamid's head.

"My compatriots, don't hesitate, leave me alone, and rise up and resist." The major, who had been tied up in rice dumplings, shouted, but his incitement went unanswered. This Chinese force is indeed very good, and there is no time to deploy the action of seizing the commanding heights, Lin only roughly explained his intentions, but he did it really cleanly. At gunpoint, no one dared to move a single bit.
