Chapter 1453 Wave after wave

"Remember, I have made the following deployment. Liao Guansan will lead the Sixth Army to Monywa and advance to Minjian. Sun Zhongneng... the foreign devils... this campaign will definitely take Mandalay."

Wang Yan paced in the tent with his hands behind his back, muttering a lot of troops and the names of various generals.

After hearing the staff officer repeat it, Wang Yan nodded slightly and said, "Send the message."

He walked to the entrance of the tent, watched the heavy rain falling on the ground outside, lit a cigarette, and listened to the ticking sound of the telegraph behind him...

It is now the winter of 1945. After another year of fighting, the land north of Mandalay has been completely controlled. Wang Yan has also traveled to most places. For those places he did not go, Milong has done the propaganda, killed the people, and recruited soldiers.

The Japanese army retreated to southern Burma and was already exhausted, but they still fought stubbornly. This action against Mandalay can be said to be almost a decisive battle in the Burmese battlefield.

Regardless of whether the coalition forces win or lose, the Japanese army has lost. Unless the Japanese army inflicts a heavy blow to the coalition forces in this battle, causing them to suffer heavy losses and making them powerless to advance, this crisis can be resolved. Otherwise, even gods cannot save them.

Because the Japanese strategy was holistic, they had already failed when they failed to contain the China-India route.

It's not just the battlefield in Myanmar. The Japanese army doesn't have the strength to continue supporting it.

What's more, China is closer to Myanmar and has more transportation links. If a war with Myanmar really breaks out again, China will have the advantage in all aspects.

While Wang Yan was moving, England seemed to see what Wang Yan was doing. After all, Wang Yan wasn't even acting anymore.

To this day, the dispute between Wang Yan and the National Army is no longer a secret, and the foreign devils are also very clear about it. The main reason is that Wang Yan always reorganizes and ignores the good situation to fight. No one can say anything, and he refuses to send troops. Of course, they have to find out the reason.

Now Wang Yan has begun to recruit local Burmese people to be the leaders of the Burmese. If the British foreigners fail to see and understand this, they would be very stupid.

But compared to Wang Yan, the Japanese army was obviously more dangerous, so England cooperated well without much ado, and still listened to Wang Yan's advice and commands wholeheartedly and concentrated on fighting the Japanese.

Of course, they felt that Wang Yan was slow in his attack, and that it took him a year to conquer the northern part of Mandalay. However, Wang Yan was not fast, and the military force played a decisive role. They themselves could not defeat the Japanese army, so they had to endure it, and perhaps decided to wait for the reckoning in the future...

The war started suddenly. Within a hundred miles of Mandalay, there were sounds of gunfire everywhere. The first round of attack was an all-out effort.

The Japanese army managed to hold on, but was no longer a force to be reckoned with, and their defenses were breached by the Allied forces in the first wave.

Wang Yan’s military headquarters even approached ten kilometers northeast of Mandalay.

"After this battle, the Japanese army is finished in Burma. Good, good..." Wei Huishan used a telescope to look at the battlefield that had already reached outside Mandalay, and even saw the houses outside Mandalay.

Not long after the bald man left, after Wang Yan sent out his troops, Chen De left due to illness, and was replaced by Wei Huishan. He was also a big shot. He led the Liaoshen Campaign. He was investigated and placed under house arrest after the defeat. His heart was with the Eighth Route Army, and he returned after the founding of the People's Republic of China...

At this time, Wei Huishan exclaimed, turned around and looked at Wang Yan, "Since the soldiers on the front line have already reached the edge of the city, why don't they enter the city?"

Wang Yan was also watching the battle through a telescope, and explained, "It would be more suitable for us to surround three sides and leave one side open, so that the Japanese can escape and chase them to fight in the field. If we fight the Japanese in the city in a street battle, the losses will be too great."

"I thought you were going to completely crush the Japanese troops here."

"We are all on the same side. At this point, killing a few more or fewer Japanese soldiers won't have a big impact. Let's not let our brothers fight to the death. I would like to let the foreign soldiers fight in the streets, but they are not stupid. There is nothing we can do but wait for the Japanese soldiers to withdraw."

Wei Huishan nodded: "This is a mature and prudent statement."

"It's not that I'm so mature, it's just that we are about to win, it's just a matter of a day earlier or later, so that the brothers can all live. The Japanese are now like grasshoppers in autumn, and they can't jump for a few more days. I heard that the war situation in various places is going well. The Japanese main island is also bombed by the American devils every day, and the blow is huge, and they are exhausted."

"It's not easy to win..." There was a hint of desolation in Wei Huishan's words.

The Anti-Japanese War was not easy. It caused great harm to the Chinese people and brought great changes to China...

He changed the subject and asked, "I heard that there is a Japanese military virus research institute in Mandalay?"

"I've heard of it, but they're doomed. I'm afraid they've moved away long ago. If we go over there now, we won't find a single piece of paper. They might be hiding some poisonous gas. Otherwise, if we get hold of this dirty business, how can the Japanese make excuses?"

"He's done so many bad things."

Wang Yan didn't say anything else. After watching the battle for a while, he went back to receive intelligence and adjust the layout.

The Japanese army was indeed on the decline, their combat effectiveness had declined, and their fighting will was weak, but they were not completely helpless.

The two sides surrounded Mandalay, with a combined force of nearly 200,000. Mandalay was only part of the battle.

The Japanese army also knew that the situation was hopeless, but they had no choice but to respond. They wanted to resist, but after failing, they had to retreat in an orderly manner, otherwise they would be in chaos and be killed by the Allied Forces.

Wang Yan was not in a hurry. He just surrounded the Japanese troops and attacked them, causing heavy casualties to them.

It took half a month to drive the Japanese out of Mandalay, and then the coalition forces fought with the Japanese in the field, with both sides attacking and defending. However, the overall battle position was constantly moving south, and another part was moving east.

The Japanese army's goal was very clear: part of them would retreat to the coast of Myanmar, and part of them would retreat to Thailand.

The mission of the Allied Forces was to chase and kill the Japanese army, not to come and go as they pleased.

This continued until January of 45, after nearly two months of fighting, Wang Yan received a telegram from Long Wenjian at the front line.

It is said that the Japanese commander Kimura Heitaro has been captured and has been escorted here.

The former Kawabe Masamitsu was also dismissed by Wang Yan, and the new Kimura Heitaro is also having a hard time. He probably receives telegrams of reprimand every day...

After receiving the news, Wang Yan hadn't said anything yet, but Wei Huishan and the other staff officers were all happy.

"Great!" Wei Huishan clapped his fist, very excited. "This is really great news. The commander of the Japanese Burma Front has been captured alive. Hahahaha. Wang Yan, I plan to take him back to China and send him to a military court. What do you say?"

"I think lingchi is better." Wang Yan waved his hand. "The crimes of the little Japanese are too numerous to list. I don't think his going to court will change anything. He might even be acquitted later. It's better to just kill him."

"This is a big deal! We can't just kill them randomly because their ranks are so high!" Wei Huishan said earnestly.

"Why should I care about that?" Wang Yan waved his hand. "Commander Wei, don't say any more. Good news should be reported, and those who should be killed should be killed. Someone, go and find out for me which of our brothers has the best swordsmanship. Let him kill a high-ranking Japanese official, and I will personally supervise the execution.

Also, call the photographers over here. Don’t the foreign devils have cameras that can move? Call them over here too, and load me with color film. Let’s leave a gift for the world. It’s not enough to just hear about the Japanese beating up the Chinese in various ways without us beating up the Japanese. Leave them all here so that people can see them later.”

"This is not appropriate..."

"I will take full responsibility. But I must first complete the interrogation and make him confess his crimes."

Wang Yan urged people to do things and stopped arguing with Wei Huishan.

In less than ten minutes, the bald man in Chongqing received the victory report. He also received the news that Wang Yan wanted to torture Kimura Heitaro to death and wanted to record it on video. He was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed...

But so what? In Myanmar, no one could stop Wang Yan from doing anything he wanted to do. Not to mention that Kimura Heitaro was captured by Wang Yan's men, so how to deal with him was not open to anyone else.

The next day, a group of people came with the captured Japanese soldiers.

They were all high-ranking officers of the headquarters, and their identities were very prominent. However, now they were in a state of great embarrassment, and many of them had bruises on their faces, which was obviously caused by the beatings they had received from Long Wenjian's men.

"Prince, this guy with glasses and a mustache is the commander of the Japanese army. His name is Lang."

"Kimura Heitaro, nice to meet you, Your Excellency."

"Draft? Did I ask you to speak?" The officer kicked Kimura Heitaro and sent him flying. "Kneel down!"

Then he turned to Wang Yan and laughed.

"Okay, now that we've got the troops, eat, drink, and take a rest before returning to the battle. We'll calculate any merits after the battle."

"Hey, brothers, let's go." The officer called on the soldiers who had escorted the war criminals to leave and went to find food and drink.

Wang Yan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Kimura Heitaro who was slumped on the ground.

This Japanese guy was also a celebrity. He was a Class A war criminal who was hanged. He was a loyal lackey of Hideki Tojo and committed countless evils.

"Commander Wei, I'll hand the person over to you first. Please give him a thorough trial." Wang Yan turned his head and stared at Wei Huishan, "Please don't send him away, or I will be unreasonable."

"You..." Wei Huishan punched Wang Yan on the shoulder angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

All they had to do was to have these Japanese officers taken away and then sent back after interrogation.

The interrogation process went very smoothly. The Japanese soldiers were very cooperative. The bigwigs in the upper echelons seemed to be very powerful and awe-inspiring, but when they were really prisoners, they were more straightforward than the other and had nothing to hide. They saw things more clearly than anyone else and there were few who were really tough.

By the time the interrogation was over, seven days had passed. During these seven days, the necessary preparations had been made, and the foreign photographer was also in place.

On the eighth day, it was a clear and nice day.

The Japanese officers were tied up with their hands and feet, kneeling in a row. Kimura Heitaro was held by a soldier and tied to a handmade wooden cross in front of him.

"Wang Sang, what are you going to do? Let me go! Let me go! Wang Yan! You don't abide by international treaties!"

"Shut up!" Wang Yan waved his hand, and a soldier blocked the little devil's mouth. Not only did they stuff his mouth with a thick cloth, but they also tied his body around to keep him in place.

"Why didn't the Japs say these words when they were harming people?"

Wang Yan stepped forward and patted his face. "You know a lot about China, so you should have heard of Ling Chi. Don't worry, my brothers here don't have such good skills. I guess you won't be able to survive a few hundred cuts. You won't suffer too much."

He turned his head and looked at the camera that was facing him, and the foreigners and Chinese photographers who were taking pictures frantically.

"let's start."

After saying that, he stood aside.

The soldier, who had been ready for battle, came forward with a knife in hand. Facing the camera and so many people, he was a little nervous, but after cutting a few times, he got used to it.

The main thing was that his most beloved prince was watching from the side, pointing out where to cut, and he studied with the prince, improving the technique one cut at a time...

The Japanese soldiers kneeling there were trembling with fear, and the weak ones were even frightened to the point of peeing their pants.

A large circle of onlookers were grinning and hissing from time to time, and the spring weather was hissed back to winter. They looked at Wang Yan and the soldier holding the knife to execute him as if they were perverts.

"Go, bring me a dog. This meat can't go to waste. Feed it to the dog."

"Yes."

A soldier nearby responded and ran away, and soon returned with a dog. Without anyone telling him to do anything, the dog rushed over to the piece of meat on the ground and started eating it...

The more delicious the dog eats, the more uncomfortable the people watching will feel.

Some people's Adam's apples moved as they watched, and they tried hard not to vomit, while others couldn't help but vomited directly. They were all thinking too much.

There are few people here who have never been to the battlefield, but there is a difference between going to the battlefield and being on the battlefield.

Some people have only seen bodies shot dead, festering wounds, and piles of dead bodies. But some people have seen broken walls and limbs, intestines turned out, and chests cut open...

Add to this the rich imagination of these cultural people and their automatic extension of their brains, and the result will be different.

In short, only a few people persisted in watching the entire execution, while most people ran away and vomited violently.

After that day, the people present looked at Wang Yan with something strange in their eyes, as if they were looking at a madman.

By March, the war was over and the Japanese army had completely retreated from Burma, some by sea and some to neighboring Thailand.

At this time, the expeditionary force simply withdrew and returned to the country.

Wang Yan did not leave. He led his troops to station in Mandalay and surrounding areas. Wang Yan himself stayed in Mandalay and began to issue orders directly.

The English foreigners came to him angrily and slammed the table, asking him why he didn't leave, but he detained them.

The American foreigners came to ask for details politely. Wang Yan directly stated his intentions and hoped to continue to cooperate with the United States and obtain assistance from the United States.

The foreign devils in England sent a message to Baldy, strongly condemning him. Baldy had no choice but to label Wang Yan as a rebel of the Central Army, expelled Wang Yan from the organization, abolished the sequence of the New First Army, and also sent a large number of officers away, because they did not want to follow Wang Yan and wanted to go back to continue their peaceful life.

After this, England sent people to negotiate with Wang Yan and asked him what he meant and what he wanted to do.

Wang Yan expressed his thoughts truthfully, but of course he was rejected by England.

So Wang Yan closed the door to negotiations and let England come forward, making it clear that he wanted to fight England...

I would like to thank the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets, and read books silently for their strong support!
