Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

Tsukada Gong was startled by Shouichi's words in the temple. After a long time of astonishment, he asked tentatively: "You mean that Jiang Haoran transferred those two divisions to Meng Gong just to attack Yingdo in advance?"

Siuchi Shou said, "Otherwise, why do you think Jiang Haoran hastily withdrew his two divisions to Meng Gong when the situation on the Eastern Front was uncertain? Could it be that he was just retreating to preserve his strength?"

"Hiss!" Tsukada took a deep breath, feeling a sense of sudden realization. He immediately realized that the two armies had formed a pincer attack on Yingduo. They can't stop their progress, they can still use the night time to advance to Yingduo, and they can reach outside Yingduo in at most two days, two divisions on the eastern front, three divisions of the fifth army, plus the British army Two divisions, the strength of which can reach the terrifying seven divisions. With the strength of one division of the Second Division of the Imperial Army, they are completely unable to contend. Basically, there is only one way to retreat.On the Eastern Front, even if the imperial army completely wiped out the No. 70 Fifth Army of the Expeditionary Army, it would not help. In this battle, they undoubtedly lost, and they lost badly.

But Tsukada Gong didn't give up, and after a flash of thought, he asked urgently: "Terauchi-kun, I think you must have a way, no matter what, we can't let them easily occupy Yingdo like this, or we At least the No.70 Fifth Army can be eaten, so even if it is defeated, it will look better?"

The corners of Shouyi's lips curled up slightly, showing an evil smile, and said: "We have already lost this battle, and it is meaningless to use three defeated divisions on the Eastern Front against the No. 70 Fifth Army of the Expeditionary Army. Winning is not enough." Happy, defeated, but lost everything, not worth it! At this time, the No.70 Fifth Army can keep its organizational system intact. There is no need to take risks for such an army, even if the expeditionary force successfully occupied Yingduo , Can they gain a firm foothold in northern Myanmar? I don’t think so!”

"Oh, I don't know what the master of the temple has to say?" Hearing that there is still a turning point in the battle situation, Tsukada Gong immediately beamed with joy.

Terauchi Shouyi said: "Although the expeditionary force has completed this strategic shift and occupied Yingduo across the sea, it can be said that it has achieved great success tactically, but the biggest difficulty in front of us still cannot be solved??????"

"Supply, you mean they still can't get supplementary supplies?" Tsukada Gongqian replied.

"Yes, supplies! After this battle, their ammunition consumption is not small. At least there is no problem with the consumption of nearly half of the two armies on the Eastern Front. Although they temporarily occupied Yingduo, they will not be able to repair Myanmar and India in a short time. Roads, food, weapons and ammunition for a 18-strong army, you can’t expect civilians to carry them from Imphal, hundreds of miles away, across mountains and rivers? Five days later, the No.30 Division of the Royal Army will arrive in Myanmar , Converge the second division, attack Yingdo from the front, No.16 eighth division, fifth division, No.[-] division, three divisions attack Meng Gong from all fronts, how long do you think the expeditionary force can last? Even if he can airdrop, However, with Jiang Haoran’s air transportation capabilities, if he can guarantee food, he cannot guarantee ammunition, and he can only choose one of the two, and in the end he still has to withdraw from Myanmar.”

"Yo Xi!" Tsukada Gong nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, but then said: "But in this way, Meng Gongtian's danger will definitely bring huge casualties to the imperial army."

"No no, Meng Gong may be a natural danger for the expeditionary army, but it may not be for the imperial army. Mr. Tsukata, if we urgently dispatch a group of Hanoi warships to cover Meng Gong with powerful artillery fire, this is the way Does the natural danger still exist?"

"Mr. Si Nei, don't forget that Jiang Haoran still has armed helicopters. No matter how tight the supplies are, he will ensure that these elite weapons maintain their combat effectiveness at all times. Hanoi ships are almost invisible to their attacks. , and the west bank of the Irrawaddy River is full of jungles, no one can tell when they will come out, and no number of ships in a round of air raids will be enough for them to blow up."

"Yes, armed helicopters are indeed the biggest threat to Hanoi ships, but have you noticed that although Jiang Haoran has the strength to compete with the imperial army for air supremacy, today he is a coward, except for a small number of fighter jets wandering around the periphery, he dare not Do you know the reason for confronting the imperial army head-on?"

Tsukada Gongqi asked: "Besides the limited production capacity of his 331 base, which cannot be consumed, is there any other reason?"

Temple Shoutai said: "This is just one of the reasons. The biggest reason is that they are short of fuel. There is no oil field in Nai, and the fuel has been unable to make ends meet. It is extremely tense. After the Burma Road was cut off by the imperial army, the fuel of the whole Nai was in a dilemma. Please, if the imperial army hadn’t pushed Jiang Haoran into a hurry tonight, there probably wouldn’t have been such a large-scale air strike. Therefore, Jiang Haoran would not be able to organize several air strikes like tonight’s. As long as the imperial army first The Fifth Flying Regiment tightened air traffic control, and Jiang Haoran's helicopter didn't dare to come out at all."

Speaking of this, Tsukada Gong seemed to think of something, and after a long silence, he said again: "Mr. Temple, don't you think the air strike tonight is weird? How could Jiang Haoran's plane perform so well in the night battle? He has achieved all-weather combat without violation, which even the imperial army can't do, how did he do it?"

"Yes, Jiang Haoran has too many secrets. If he hadn't suddenly brought out an excellent armed helicopter this time, how could he bring the expeditionary army back to life? How many secrets does the imperial army not know about him? of?"

Tsukada Gong murmured: "It seems that to know all this, we can only wait for 'Falcon' to appear?"

Terauchi Shouichi looked at Tsukada Gong without saying a word, nor did he raise any doubts about his words, obviously he also knew what "Falcon" represented, and there was a little more agreement with Tsukada Gong's words in his expression.

In the following time, Terauchi Shouichi issued several orders in a row, and then the two of them led the staff team to start a long war game. Although the defeat in front of them has been concluded, the war will not stop because of this, but is going to the other side. A **** advance.

Mina, the headquarters of the No.16 Division of the Japanese Army.

Tada Hayao, head of the Fifth Division, held the telegram just sent by Terauchi Shouichi in his hand and remained silent. He was a little confused about the command of the headquarters.

Seeing Tada Hayao's serious expression, Nakajima Konzago, the head of the No.16 division, said in a panic, "Tada-kun, what's the matter, did the general in the temple issue a decision to punish us?"

Although Tada Hayao took over the command of Nakajima Kezago, he has no complaints at this moment, but is a little secretly glad that at least he will not be mainly responsible for the loss tonight, but the telegram from the headquarters still makes him a little panicked.
