Chapter 576 Take over the defense zone
.23us.Unless a miracle happens, there is absolutely no possibility that even if the 318th Army is allowed to mobilize troops to enter, it will take at least two days and two days. I am afraid that the Japanese army has already set off and waited for the 318th Army to enter the tiger's mouth.
Stilwell said to the Chinese translator and several Chinese advisers on the side: I have to tell you regretfully that this battle between the two Gu is probably about to end. Now our right wing defense zone is empty. The Japanese army can enter it calmly.
A Chinese colonel advised: Damn, these British guys are so shameless. This put our expeditionary force in a huge passive state. General Stilwell, you can see the map. The defense line of the battle between the ancient war is the top priority. Once this line of defense is gone, the pressure on the ancient war will increase sharply. By then
The colonel can't continue to say anything at this moment. Anyone can imagine what is below. Stilwell patted the colonel on the shoulder and said: We were timid, cowardly, selfish, and they only care about their immediate interests. I am really disappointed, but now we want to tell the 318th Army this bad news, and hope they can make their own decisions as soon as possible
Everyone was silent, but they all followed General Stilwell. It can be said that they all prospered and prospered. Now Stilwell is embarrassing, so they are naturally embarrassing. There are a few people here who followed General Stilwell to Tonggu two days ago. At that time, Tonggu had already begun to prepare for the battle.
I didn't expect that such a situation would happen now. Once I told them, it would probably be a huge blow to morale.
General Stilwell, I have to tell you regretfully that the British took the radio away and the most unbearable thing is that they actually cut off the telephone line. A lieutenant colonel was unable to run away, and looked very depressed.
Oh, what isn't true Stilwell's face was full of incredible and anger. It's hard to imagine that the British would be so resolute if there were no radio and telephone calls, how would they notify the guards of the Gonggu
Even if you drive there, it will take at least one night. At that time, the Japanese army may have reached its strategic position. At that time, it is impossible to withdraw if they want to withdraw. At that time, China and Japan will soon strangle together.
Stilwell sat down on the ground, and now he could only do his best to do his best. A colonel said regretfully: If we had known that the British would be like this, we should have brought the radio station to our own. Could it be that our lives will be accomplished? This will make Britain hurt? Now everything is too late.
Several staff members looked dead, and Stilwell might not be punished, but these staff members are different Chairman Jiang could not vent his anger on Stilwell, but could vent his anger on their heads. Now they are most worried about these things, of course, and at the same time, the fate of the expeditionary army is also the fate of the expeditionary army.
A unit is secretly stationed around ten kilometers away from the British defense zone
News came from the scouts in front of the division's seat that the British began to move northwest and evacuate all of them, along with their weapons and equipment.
Sun Liren slapped the table and then sneered: As expected, these British people really put us to death and passed our orders. The troops immediately entered the British positions, took over the defense zone and excavated the construction of fortifications.
Sun Liren didn't expect that the British would really dare to take the blame for the world and leave in a noble way. Sun Liren called Wang Mingyu at this moment, but called the chief executive. This shows that Sun Liren had already begun to admire Wang Mingyu.
In Sun Liren's opinion, if this battle is really won, no one can take away Wang Mingyu's first contribution. In Sun Liren's opinion, he still seriously underestimated the 318th Army, but the most urgent task at the moment is to take over the British defense zone.
Stilwell and others were driving towards Mandalay, but not long after they drove, they saw the roar of cars in front of them. Stilwell stood in the car and looked up. The black crowd was rushing towards this direction.
Stilwell was shocked and quickly looked forward with a telescope. Looking at the costumes of the Chinese troops in front, Stilwell didn't know whether he was excited or stunned at this moment, and he shouted blankly: Impossible, Impossible
Several staff officers on the side looked at the crowd far ahead, and when they looked at Stilwell's expression, they were all shocked and sweated. At this moment, they didn't care about Stilwell's identity as the chief, and snatched Stilwell's telescope. After seeing it, they shouted: Our troops, haha, we are really going to kill us, our troops, everyone will take a look.
At this moment, Sun Liren's troops were getting closer and closer, and Sun Liren's jeep was also walking in front. In addition to the vanguard, they were looking at a car ahead, with a foreigner and a few Chinese people on the car. Sun Liren signaled the troops to move forward quickly, and then asked his driver to come to Stilwell's car next to Stilwell's car.
A few guards with guns yelled at Stilwell and others, and before Stilwell could speak, the colonel adviser said: Brother, it's your own people, you are your own people.
Sun Liren strode forward and said: Who are you here?
Stilwell said: My name is Joseph Stilwell
Sun Liren was stunned, and then he understood that the British ran away and Stilwell naturally wanted to go home. Sun Liren sneered: General Stilwell is going where is he going.
Stilwell said anxiously: The British are treacherous and they gave up their position. I will tell Commander-in-Chief Wang Mingyu about this news and let him make a decision as soon as possible. Now we are on our way to Mandalay.
Sun Liren said: This battle with ancient times was first proposed by the British, why did they run the fastest? Our chief executive said that the British must not believe General Stilwell believes.
Stilwell looked embarrassed, but at this moment he was also giving up. Stilwell changed the subject and said: I don’t know the general’s surname. Stilwell doesn’t know the specific number of this army now, so I can only ask the other person’s name first.
In fact, Stilwell Sun Liren had seen him, but Sun Liren is pretending to be stupid now. When Stilwell came to China, he also inspected Sun Liren's troops. However, Stilwell inspected too many troops and could not remember him at all.
Sun Liren stood proudly and said: I am Sun Liren, Major General, Commander of the 38th Division of the National Revolutionary Army
When Stilwell heard about the commander, he finally felt relieved. A division had at least ten thousand people and now he had to be much more calm. Stilwell said: I don’t know if General Sun is here this time.
Sun Liren said: Under the order of Commander-in-Chief Wang, he took over the British defense zone to resist the Japanese attack and completed the layout of the battle between the two ancients. Sun Liren did not hide it too much. After all, this was nominally the supreme commander of the Myanmar Expeditionary Force.
Sun Liren is like a God in Stilwell's eyes. At this moment, Stilwell's annoyance is thrown away from the sky. Now Stilwell is completely excited.
Although Sun Liren was talking to Stilwell, his troops did not stop for a moment. Now time is life. Sun Liren signaled Stilwell to return to the defense zone, and then began to speak. Stilwell happily agreed that there must be a radio call on Sun Liren, so Stilwell would not have to run to Mandalay so far away, and he might have to ridicule General Wang Mingyu, so he would not want to
After building the command center, Sun Liren said to Stilwell: General Stilwell, the Battle of the Ganggu is led by our General Office, but this time the General Office means that the only one of the Chinese Expeditionary Forces can announce to the outside world that our Chinese Expeditionary Forces will take over all the British defense affairs in Myanmar.
Stilwell asked puzzledly: What does this mean
Sun Liren said: That is to say, from now on, the entire Myanmar is not a British colony, General Stilwell knew that
Stilwell showed a sudden enlightenment expression. At this moment, he knew what Wang Mingyu wanted. He not only wanted to fight with the Japanese army, but also controlled the entire Yunnan-Burma highway and even the transportation line in Myanmar.
However, General Stilwell thought it was very appropriate. This kind of place was originally a place that could be found. Stilwell, who was originally disdainful of Wang Mingyu, had to face this person seriously. If Stilwell was still a little disdainful of Wang Mingyu before, then his mentality is definitely a 180-degree turn now
No one expected the British to retreat, but Wang Mingyu thought that if Stilwell commanded the battle himself, Stilwell felt chilling now. If it were him, the Expeditionary Force might be surrounded by the Japanese army, and it would be very likely that the Expeditionary Force would be wiped out in the end.
If that were the case, Stilwell would have to bear the anger from Chairman Chiang. Now everything has passed. At least now they can have a real showdown with the Japanese army. They don’t have to act according to the British’s expressions.
Sun Liren ordered the troops to start to build fortifications continuously. In addition to their own artillery, the field artillery battalion was also ready. At this moment, they were on a high ground somewhere, and the troops of the two special forces battalions had begun to move forward continuously on the route of the Japanese army, intending to stop the Japanese army's progress and win more time for Sun Liren's defensive fortifications to be restored.
When the special camp put the order to fight on Sun Liren's table, Sun Liren's mouth could be filled with a duck egg. He couldn't imagine that with these five hundred people, he wanted to block a Japanese division regiment.
Sun Liren would never think they were making trouble. In fact, if it were before, he might have thought they were making trouble. But now, Sun Liren has absolutely reason to believe that this army is definitely not making trouble.
However, only five hundred people wanted to stop a division, Sun Liren was reluctant to believe that they could do it at all. This was the person assigned by Wang Mingyu to himself. Although the number of people was a little smaller, it was at least a bit symbolic. If they were wiped out at this moment, what would Sun Liren give to Wang Mingyu?
Sun Liren hesitated, which made him hesitate, but the people from the special camp ran directly to Sun Liren's command center, took the order from Wang Mingyu's hand and said: Commander Sun, this is our chief officer who specially asked us to help you. This is the chief officer's order, and we bear all the consequences ourselves.
The battalion commanders of the special forces camp were all the first group of people directly under the team. Their combat experience is so rich. At this moment, Myanmar has been in the jungle for a long time, which is just conducive to their operations. At least two or three thousand devils are eliminated. The most important thing is to fight against the Japanese morale and psychological attacks on the Japanese people. The special forces camp never thought that the Japanese army could wipe out all of them.
In fact, although there are 500 people, the locations of their blocking are different. In other words, the number of people blocking the Japanese army will never exceed 50 people at one time. If there are enough Japanese shells, then they can waste them as much as possible. At that time, it will be a blessing for Sun Liren's troops.
Why did Wang Mingyu dare to let Sun Liren face the pressure on his side by himself? In fact, what he felt most at ease was not Sun Liren's troops. In fact, the five hundred people from his special brigade had these five hundred people. Even if the position could not be saved, it would be impossible for the Japanese army to advance quickly. At that time, they would be afraid of the Japanese army. They were thinking about the attack and obviously they had to think about it.
Sun Liren was slightly shocked when he saw others holding Wang Mingyu's order. Could it be that Commander-in-Chief Wang was so confident about his subordinates, Sun Liren shook his head helplessly, and looked at the person who asked for his fate with a sympathy on his face and said: I agree with your request, but you must be careful that the Japanese are not so easy to deal with.
Please rest assured, the Japanese army must pay the price of bleeding every time they go forward. We can definitely delay the Japanese army for at least one day. A battalion commander of the special battalion said.
Only you five hundred people in a day have to sigh at the moment. Although he doesn't believe it, since they say so, it is not easy to hurt their confidence.
Sun Liren smiled slightly and said: Brother, thank you for your kindness and do your best to protect yourself to the greatest extent. This is the help to me, Mr. Sun.
Although the people in the special camp have always been low-key, they usually speak with actions, so the battalion commander of the special camp just nodded and did not compete with Sun Liren. Now their purpose is to complete the task and complete the task assigned to them by Wang Mingyu.
The Japanese army is already on the way to set off, only about 100 kilometers away from Sun Liren's defense zone.
