The castle was built during the Mangyinglong era of the Dongwei Dynasty to spy on the Arakan people of Rakhine, and its strategic location is naturally very advantageous. There is a winding road to go up. The Burmese, the Arakanese, the Portuguese, the British all occupied the area, and now the Japanese.

One of the things that Major Brooke is most proud of is that after the staff map is updated every day, he can stand next to him for more than ten minutes, and he can write down some of the locations and troop deployments of the two sides that have changed hands, so as to update the map in his head, so that he can answer questions and never make mistakes. This is not only the quality of professional soldiers, but the quality of professional staff officers, and the hateful thing is that Chu Tingchang never asks about the enemy's situation, so he can't display his talents.

His love for maps has almost become a hobby of his; Chu Ting's long hanging, pretending to be mysterious, and being so unrigorous is the object of his hatred. He hated Chu's unplanned approach of moving cleverly in front of the enemy. He even suspected that Pavilion Chief Chu's behavior was actually to cover up the fact that he had no ability to read maps at all; Another of his comical disguises is that he always carries a cowhide map canister, but never opens it. In fact, Major Brooke had never seen Chief Chu in front of a map, watching carefully for more than 30 seconds, nor had he seen him take a compass. Many times, he relied on asking his follower Zhou Youfu to grasp the position.

"We can follow the army and take some footage of the Japanese." Capra is not young, but he maintains an optimistic childlike heart. He was eager to get as close as possible to the enemy.

"Director, you can follow us 100 meters away, but I can't guarantee that you will be able to photograph the Japanese."

Brooke was about to refute his nonsense. Chu Aiyun had already entered through the small security door on the side of the 221 tank. He ordered Zhou Youfu to drive up the mountain road at a low speed and advance towards the ambush area of the devils.

"Sun Tzu, you are going to court martial, and I swear to testify that it is your command responsibility."

Chu Aiyun turned off the radio, and his ears were not upset. He knew that it was difficult for his hands and feet to be clean today, especially in front of a professional soldier like Brooke, it must look weird, and there was only a layer of paper between him and his appearance. This was all forced by the Japanese. The Japanese are well aware of the initiative in war, and they will always attack earlier than the defenders think. It took four years for the national army to adapt to the rhythm of the Japanese army, and the British were even more inadequate, and even he felt that he could not bear it.

A gunshot rang out, and a bullet hit the side fender and bounced off.

Zhou Youfu hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but there was a mountainous slope here, and there was no backward vision, so he didn't dare to change the reverse gear to dodge, so as not to slip down the mountain edge out of control. The chariot can only be parked on the road and become an immobile target.

"Don't be afraid, little thing."

Chu Aiyun said calmly, he knew that there would be this shot 30 seconds in advance, because it was shot by Ma Qiang.

On the top of the mountain, Lin Xiuxuan used a telescope to observe the chariot that slowly climbed up, with a Japanese steel helmet on his head, the battle on the hill had been resolved, and the three of them took 5 minutes to kill all 8 enemies. Now I have to cooperate with Chu Tingchang to perform this play, so that he can enter the play more naturally.

"How dare you really hit an armored car? What to do if it is pierced. Lin Xiuxuan said angrily.

"Jeep in the rear, jeep in the rear, stay safe." The voice of Chief Chu sounded on the radio in his hand, and he had been locking this channel since just now. Chu Aiyun seemed to be reminding the US troops behind to be careful, but in fact he was hinting that his own people on the hill could beat the Americans.

Lin Xiuxuan patted Ma Qiang's back.

"Change the machine gun to shoot a short shot at the jeep, and be careful not to hurt people."

Ma Qiang propped up the crooked handle on the side, took a slight aim, and shot a short point near the photographer's car carrying the machine, Kakaka, and the bullet landed on the side of the jeep, and the dust flew nearby.

In a panic, the photographer fell from the car and the camera fell to the ground. However, in the process of falling, he was well photographed of the cover for the sudden shooting on the mountain, which made the most perfect shot of this trip to Myanmar and realized the director's long-cherished wish to shoot the Japanese.

"I'm going to fight back, I'm going to fight back." Chu Aiyun said on the radio.

Lin Xiuxuan patted Ma Qiang, and the two dropped their Japanese steel helmets and slipped away. Xu Chong squatted in the other direction, carefully monitoring the movement of Japanese troops in the distance, he was worried that the Japanese who were lining up in an attacking formation a kilometer away would be frightened back by the sound of gunfire, but the shooting was very restrained, and they did not hear it.

Chu Aiyun moved the machine gun, fired indiscriminately at the bushes, and then motioned for Zhou Youfu to move forward.

"All follow me."

Zhou Youfu stubbornly shifted one gear and slowly moved upward. He saw the counterattack just now through the gap in the armor, and it did hit the enemy's hiding place, but it was very reluctant, and maybe there would be other enemy fire nearby. He was most worried about the grenadiers of the Japanese army. He was speeding up the trail and could easily be hit by the thing.

Zhou Youfu secretly prayed that all the immortals plus Chu Tingchang could bless him, hoping that he could be peaceful and peaceful, just like the situation since he and Chu Tingchang partnered, everything was magical. He saw crooked guns and three Japanese corpses. The battalion commander used a short strafing fire to take out one of the enemy's machine-gun crews, two of whom were shot in the head.

Major Brooke hid behind the jeep down the hill and looked up with a telescope, he did not expect a real battle, and even saw one or two Japanese soldiers flashing by the thorns on the mountain, which he confirmed were the long-sleeved uniforms and foliage-covered steel helmets of the Japanese army, not the short-sleeved uniforms and pennies of the Anglo-Burmese army. Looks like this guy has hit the wrong place again.

The ensuing scene made him even more dumbfounded, he saw Chu Tingchang carrying a silver glittering pistol, jumping down from the small door on the side of the chariot, and began to examine the corpses of Japanese soldiers. Then he stood straight on the top of the hill, like a documentary hero, brandishing the 1911 pistol and signaling the people behind him to speed forward.

Major Brooke was almost certain that, within a few seconds, a sleek, fierce Japanese in a dirty military uniform would emerge from nearby and kill the fool with a bayonet, and he waited almost with bated breath for the scene, but it never happened. Chu Tingchang went into the broken city wall alone.

2 minutes later, a gunshot rang out in the hilltop fortress, it was the sound of Chu Ting's long pistol, the shooting speed was even, like a continuous shot at a row of wooden targets, and there was a 20-second pause in between, which was about the time it took for a new hand to change * in a hurry. During this time, there was no sound of other weapons returning fire. Then, a few more shots rang out, and the battle seemed to be over.

Major Brooke stared at it suspiciously, almost forgetting to blink.

Chu Tingchang reappeared on the hill and threw down a Japanese flag. Because the photographer broke his leg, this scene was not filmed, or the audience who came after him would have suspected that it was probably a pose.

"The enemy is cleared, there is an important discovery, you come up, major."

Chief Chu Tingchang used the radio to call Colonel Brooke below. It is not without benefit that there is a group of Americans following, and now they can endorse themselves and even photograph the movement of the Japanese army.

The major drove, quickly up the road, and a thought lingered: if the Japanese reconnaissance troops were so wasteful, how did they secretly occupy this pillbox?

He stepped up the stone staircase over two corpses, each shot in the back of the head.

When he rushed to the top of the pillbox, he was about to split his head and condemn Chu Tingchang for acting rashly as a commander, but he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him. A long dragon was moving slowly in the distance, and he hurriedly ran to Chu Tingchang's side and observed it with his binoculars.

Heavily armed Japanese troops were coming out of the woods, where a large number of baggage troops were gathered, sappers were building bridges over the river and filling in the craters on the roads. They figured out the pattern of the Allied reconnaissance planes, and the timing was so wonderful.

Small infantry guns were being pushed out of bunkers, and heavier mountain guns were hung behind horses. Everything was quiet and orderly, as if they were ready to happily receive the positions left by the British soldiers for the change of guard.

"Attack after nightfall." Chu Tingchang said, "Look at those mountain artillery, they are not ready to fight at all. ”

"My God, there are at least two brigades, there should be a wing behind. This is impossible, and their material preparation is still very inadequate. ”

"Which of their attacks was launched with what your staff considered to be fully prepared?" Chief Chu asked rhetorically, which did make Brooke speechless for a while; The Japanese attacked early each time, using the most demanding schedules in order to catch their opponents off guard. This way gave them a taste of sweetness, because it was always the Japanese army that won.

Panting, Lapla arrives with a camera on his shoulder, and after the photographer breaks his leg, he is determined to go into battle himself.

Seeing everything in front of him, he naturally shut up and silently photographed everything in front of him. This is the first time in the history of human cinema that a large-scale assembly of hostile countries has been filmed in its entirety. Previously, only reconnaissance aircraft were able to take sporadic photographs, not continuous footage.

A strong sense of mission welled up in Capra's chest, and he silently recorded on film how the invincible Japanese army assembled and unfolded, their ranks and order, the location of the headquarters and the efficiency of the engineers. This film will play a key role in the tactics of the Japanese Army in the future when the Allies used artillery to disintegrate and prepare for the Japanese Army.

"What are we going to do?" Brooke asked subconsciously.

"Report to command. Let's see if we can mobilize the artillery to hit first. ”

"But, perhaps, an all-front attack. The defense line of the British was not yet complete. It's just the artillery that can't stop them. ”

"I will report to Chief Du and ask him to transfer the reserves to a position that is convenient for support in advance."

He and Lin Xiuxuan had been thinking about the grim situation for a few more hours than Brooke, so the whole of Burma was in his mind, the trump cards 200 and 22 divisions in Du Yuming's hands, and the 38 divisions of the 66th Army deployed later were all strong troops, which could roughly carry a B division head-on for a few days. Once these troops were properly mobilized, it was conducive to the slow retreat of the Allied forces, thwarting the quick victory of the Japanese army, and the most terrible thing was that the British army was about to collapse at the touch of a button.

"They will definitely carry out an amphibious landing at the same time, then it will be bad." The major said. He went to the Alexander headquarters every day, listened to all kinds of pessimistic opinions, and took the assumptions of the Japanese landing in Rakhine very seriously.

"You stupid, where did the Japanese land so many ships? It was imperative for Alexander to withdraw his troops from the coast. ”

Inside the U.S. Naval Hospital in Darwin, Australia. Captain Glenn, covered in bandages, lay on his hospital bed, staring blankly ahead. A doctor shines a small flashlight in his eyes and finds that his pupils are unresponsive.

"Can you feel anything, Major?"

"Nothing. It's still white. ”

"I've been in this situation before," the doctor turned to a silent officer on one side, "usually caused by the act of observing the sun with a telescope." A similar situation would be caused if the periscope was pointed at the rising sun at magnification. ”
