The 114th Regiment covered the Engineer Regiment and had taken Hin Beyang, and the Engineer Regiment was now going to continue to pave the way to Dabanga, but the Japanese army harassed the expeditionary force from two directions, to the east was Dabanga, where a squadron of the Japanese army was stationed, plus more than 1,000 Burmese Defense Forces; They had complete fortifications and bunkers.

Dabanga's Japanese army Feng Ye didn't care, and when the road was built two kilometers further, the infantry could get close to reconnoitre, and use walkie-talkies to call the 155mm heavy artillery regiment and aviation to carry out fire bombardment, so that the devil died in the fortifications.

What made the 114th Regiment uncomfortable was the direction of Dro from the south, from where the devil's Nagart attack team kept harassing the flank of the engineer regiment, and the 114th regiment had to fight hard with the devil on this line to cover the flank of the engineer regiment.

"Regiment commander, this is the jungle, there is no way to build a defense line, the Japanese and Burmese can shuttle here at will, the simple defense line built by the 114th regiment cannot be held at all, the devils will attack from any direction, and many of the brothers who died in the battle died in the tunnel......"

In two directions, the six squads in front and back have brought back intelligence, the direction of Dabanga does not matter, the devil is the gesture taken, and the main difficult thing to solve is the Nagart attack team in the direction of Delo, they are the main attack.

"What about the casualties of the brethren?"

Feng Yi's front-line headquarters is in Xinbeiyang, and the rain in the sky has not stopped today, and he can't hear the gunfire in the forest here.

"Two of them were injured and have been sent to the hospital."

Rhoda sighed, it was really bad luck today, I fought in the woods with the enemy who didn't know where I ran out, and as a result, two scouts were dragged back, if it wasn't for the brothers behind to support them quickly enough, their casualties would probably be even greater.

"What about the enemy?"

"There must have been people who were shot, but we didn't see the bodies, and after the encounter, we kept retreating."

Roda shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

"How many mines do we have now that we can use?"

Feng Yi raised his head and looked at his quartermaster, the American liaison officer Leanoton, that's right, the gunsmith who had cooperated with him in Lashio has now become his liaison officer, which was sent by General Haig, and it is precisely because they have cooperated with each other.

"Two hundred classes of anti-infantry mines will arrive in two hours."

Linorton looked at the time, it was only a day since they arrived here, and it was not easy to bring in so many mines, because on this side of the battlefield, because the Japanese army lacked armor strength, they did not prepare mines in large quantities, and this was the case with the British.

"It's not enough, at least a thousand mines need to be brought over."

Feng Yi shook his head, saying that this bit of landmine was not even a drop in the bucket.

"What do you want so many mines for? What are your plans? You know, mines are buried in the ground, and after a long time, they will cause harm to ourselves. ”

Lenodon frowned, planting mines in the jungle, hurting not only the enemy, but possibly himself.

"This forest in the south, it is unrealistic to rely on us to defend it, the casualties are too great, I am going to block this forest with mines, the Japanese want to come, let's use the corpses to explore the way!"

Feng Yi raised his head and said his plan.

"Counterattack Burma, we may also have to send supplies from here, you can't do this, you can't do it......"

Linotton shook his head, not agreeing at all.

"I'll leave safe passages, and when the time comes, they'll be marked for you, and mines are mostly used where we can't take care of them; Please rest assured of this. ”

Feng Ye patted Linoldon on the shoulder, indicating that he also knew that he was powerful.

"Take advantage of the fact that the mines are not coming, Rodda, you take a team, cross this forest, and go to the area of Dero to see where the devil's base is, and we will deal with them once and for all."

Feng Yi slapped the map, he hoped that the base of the devil's attack force was in Delo, which would make him have a lot less trouble; In his mind, since the devils were attacking them under the cover of the jungle, then their base should be on the opposite side of Dro, and their supplies and transportation of the wounded would not be too far away.

"Yes!"

Rhoda nodded, to pass through this jungle, it was easy to find the base of the devils, the jungle was full of roads, as long as they didn't deviate from the direction, they could get out of the jungle.

"Alright! I will report your request to General Haig, and if he agrees, there is no question of mines. ”

Lenoldton nodded, as long as Feng Yi's tactical thinking was passed, a thousand mines would not be difficult for Britain and the United States.

There is a safe passage, and this passage will only be in the hands of the expeditionary force, there is nothing that Haig and Stilwell cannot agree with, their main task now is to open the road to the new Pingyang, let the troops occupy the area east of the Tanai River, establish an offensive starting base and a logistics supply base here, and then climb the cross-country mountain, with strong firepower and outflanking detour tactics, break through the Hukang River Valley and the Menggong River Valley; As for how to fight after this, even Stilwell is still thinking about it.

After daybreak, Rhoda set out with a small team, carrying six days' worth of dry rations and a base of ammunition; The standard ammunition for the commando team to go out on a mission is two bases, but they are not going to fight this time, mainly to reconnoitre, in the jungle, nothing is more important than food.

"Be careful, we encountered the devil here yesterday, seal this piece first."

In the jungle, a squad of brothers is slowly touching forward, they are carrying dozens of mines, of course, they will not directly bury mines in situ, they have to touch forward, the mine defense line, of course, the farther away the better, they will have enough reaction time when defending in the back in the future.

"Be quiet, and don't litter the soil you dig up."

"Get some grass and cover this piece and we'll keep watch here for hours."

dozens of mines, blocking a distance of more than fifty meters on the lateral distance; It rained for only a few hours, and even the most seasoned hunter could not tell that it had ever been dug up.

"Sudden Sudden ......."

"Boom, boom......"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Inside the jungle, dense gunfire rang out, and the battle in the jungle was like this, once encountered, it must be a crazy fire tilt, suppressing the enemy, and thinking about anything else.

"If you encounter an enemy on the left, be careful."

It was Wang Ning's second battalion and third company that was laying mines, and a platoon commander with a company was on a mission, and when he heard the gunshots, he did not immediately bring people to support.

"Company commander?"

A brother looked to the left, a little worried, the fierce gunfire had been going on for some time, as if there was no intention of stopping, the squad leader was a little worried and wanted to go to support.

"This is the jungle, we can't see it, don't move it; Naturally, someone will support them. ”

The company commander shook his head, this is the jungle, they don't know how many enemies there are in the place of the firefight, and they don't know if the brothers on the left need support; They are afraid that the devil is dangling, so they use the sound of gunfire to attract them to come to support, and then ambush reinforcements on the road, then it will be troublesome.
