Historically, the army stationed in India under Sun Liren's headquarters was the first to complete the reorganization of American weapons, and later after the end of the Anti-Japanese War, a total of more than 40 American infantry divisions were reorganized on this basis.

Although these so-called American mechanics are far behind the real American army in terms of firepower, have seriously shrunk in artillery, and are not equipped with tanks, they are already considered the elite of the elite compared with other units in the country.

Most of these troops transferred to western Yunnan were previously the forces of various warlords and local armed forces, because the anti-Japanese stood on the united front, and Lao Chiang's control over them was very limited.

Now, compared with the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the national troops fought hard, and many generals also died on the battlefield, but Lao Chiang's control has been improved.

The Japanese army had lost its advantage on the domestic battlefield and turned to the defensive in an all-round way, while the Chinese army won victories in some skirmishes one after another, and the situation of the national war of resistance gradually began from a passive stalemate to an active counteroffensive.

However, the reality is very helpless, and the domestic newspapers have been publicizing day after day that how many enemies have been destroyed today and how many lost territories have been recovered tomorrow have not had much impact on the entire war situation.

Because the Japanese went on the defensive, they also gave up a lot of turf, and avoided falling into a disadvantage by shrinking their defenses.

On the surface, it seems that the Chinese army is unstoppable, and the Japanese are retreating one after another, but the actual losses of the little devils are not much.

A big guy once said that it is useless to brag every day, there are more than one million devils in China, and eliminating one is counted as one, this is the real thing.

How could Lao Chiang not know the problems in this, the current situation in the country is like this, the general direction has to look at the United States, the Soviet Union and Britain, and the end of the war is only a matter of time.

The 200,000 troops gathered in western Yunnan were just the beginning, and the bald head of state had a very loud calculation.

After all, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was not over, and although the troops stationed in India had been transferred back to China, he did not send this baby bump to the battlefield to fight the Japanese, but instead transferred many chaotic teams to the western part of Yunnan to make demands to the Yankees.

However, this also made Liao Mingyu smell a glimmer of opportunity, and then he immediately discussed with Fan Shaozeng and asked the latter to go back to western Yunnan to operate secretly, the purpose was for the hundreds of thousands of troops.

We all know that the Sichuan army had more than 3 million people when it left Sichuan, and now there are 690,000 dead and wounded, and many of the remaining people have been broken up and mixed into other troops, and the proportion of the Sichuan army in the entire Chinese army is very high.

More than half of the hundreds of thousands of people who came to western Yunnan were Sichuan troops, and many of the officers were once Fan Shaozeng's subordinates in the 88th Army.

Although the number of their troops is gone, the identity of the Sichuan people has not changed, and they can be regarded as the division of the long-term war. If they can be brought to Burma for armed reorganization, it is believed that their combat effectiveness will not be worse than that of Gao Xijiang's 50 th Division.

It would definitely not work to ask Lao Jiang for someone, he now wished that Liao Mingyu would die in Burma, and even all the achievements and glory of the latter in Burma were deliberately ignored by him.

The exploits of leading the expeditionary force to successive victories also fell on Fan Shaozeng's head, which also made him famous and hailed as a hero of the expeditionary war of resistance.

And Liao Mingyu has long been marginalized, whether it is the war report or the propaganda newspaper, not only did not mention a word, but also deliberately smeared him for being a warlord and betraying the interests of the country.

Liao Mingyu didn't care about this, and even scoffed a little, those commendation orders and propaganda newspapers wiping their butts were too awkward, and if they wanted to be used for fart, real guns and live ammunition were the last word.

Isn't it fragrant to be the behind-the-scenes leader in the back? As for public opinion and misunderstandings ... Let him go, a hundred people have a hundred mouths, and how can they control what others say? Whether it is true or false will be left to future generations to evaluate.

Speaking of this operation to pry the corner, Commander Fan has great confidence.

It is said that the Sichuan people are straightforward, and there is no reason to refuse this former old commander and an anti-Japanese hero who has recently been in the limelight at home and abroad.

And the treatment of the expeditionary force is obvious to all, continue to stay in western Yunnan can only mix two meals a day, go to Burma with all the American-style equipment, the salary is several times that of the current one, the firepower is more generous than the Yankees, and the food and drink are richer than the descendants of Lao Chiang, so the fool will not go.

Fan Shaozeng has managed to secure the support of several senior officers there, and is now contacting other veteran units to recruit as many people as possible.

As for the possible military obstacles, Liao Mingyu has long been prepared, Nankan, as the gateway between China and Burma, has long been built into a fortress that cannot be drained, and has been facing the national army on the other side of the Ruili River across the river, guarding against each other.

The 203rd Division of the split New Army and the three newly formed infantry divisions are also moving to Nankan to step up the deployment of troops there.

This made Yu Xiaoqing, who led the 71st Army stationed in Ruili, feel pressured and did not dare to act rashly.

As the saying goes, as long as the hoe dance is good, how can there be a corner that can't be dug down, and now the Kunming camp headquarters is still nominally in charge of He Yingqin, and Wei Lihuang has been demoted to a deputy position.

However, this guy has been organizing the Xiangxi campaign since the beginning of April, and now he has no time to manage the western part of Yunnan.

And Wei Lihuang is also about to be sent to the north to investigate, and Long Yun, chairman of YN Province, seems to be expected to re-erect the banner, but he is seriously overstretched in front of him, and he is unable to control the military aspect, and he is limited by the Chongqing government everywhere.

Today's Kunming camp factional relations are complicated, and it is difficult to form a unified voice, and the troops in western Yunnan are also mixed, which also gives Fan Shaozeng, the commander of Ha'er, the opportunity to muddy the waters.

Mangshi and Ruili in western Yunnan are now a large military station, and some of the troops originally stationed in Baoshan, Dingshan and Chanda have gathered here.

Among them, there are the 131st Division of the 50th Army, the 133rd Division of the 21st Army, the 319th Division, the 753rd Regiment of the 104th Division, the 328th Regiment of the 144th Division, etc... Almost all of them were troops of the Haragawa Army, about 70,000 or 80,000 people, and the number was increasing every day.

In fact, these teams did not receive any orders on the surface, and they were all acting on their own. To put it bluntly, Fan Shaozeng was instigated to go to Burma to join the expeditionary force.

Such a large battle will definitely make some people nervous, and the 71 officers and men in charge of changing the regional defense immediately entered a state of alert and began to set up checkpoints to prevent these troops from continuing to move south.

The higher-ups were also shocked when they learned of the incident, and hurriedly ordered the border troops to stop these troops who were acting without authorization, and also sent a special commissioner to solve the matter.

The Chongqing government also sent a secret telegram to Yu Xiaoqing, saying that it could use force to suppress it if necessary, because it was already an extremely serious mutiny.

But the number of people on the other side is too much, even Yu Xiaoqing, who thinks highly of himself, is afraid of causing a large-scale firefight, and he does not dare to act rashly.

Although the 71st Army is an elite force and has been equipped with a lot of American weapons, who is willing to risk the world's condemnation to aim their guns at their own people, and they are still several times their own strength in terms of strength.

Our Yu Dajunzuo is now under pressure, facing the urging of Chongqing every day, and also enduring the signs of breaking through the border and endless provocations of those troops, he is afraid that if he is not good, he will become a sinner for the ages.
