Chapter 133 Take the initiative to attack?
At dawn, Lin Yue and others returned to the airport. Although everyone was soaked like a drowned rat, everyone had a bright smile on their faces.
A total of 61 civilians were rescued during the sneak attack on the temple, including 49 foreigners, and 163 captured soldiers, mostly British soldiers, including a major and two lieutenants.
Not to mention the captured civilians and British soldiers, the thirty or forty soldiers of the expeditionary force had just finished a hot meal before they went to Long Wenwenla to dig trenches and repair fortifications. Meng was so angry that he scolded him for being despicable. He was obviously a human being.
The man whom Battalion Commander Lin rescued, as soon as his upper lip touched his lower lip, he abducted him.
The key point is that the bitch still looked very reasonable, saying that they had sneak attack on the Japanese prisoner of war camp. The enemy must really want to find this place. The charge that was supposed to be launched in three days may be moved forward to two days. The strength of the two squadrons
It may be increased to three squadrons. Now we must use all available forces to buy time for the evacuation of those civilians.
Lin Yue left again and continued to flirt with the old gangster. I heard that one night there was music coming from the British camp, and it seemed that a dance was being held. Someone also saw a foreign girl with white skin, blue eyes and yellow hair coming from him early the next morning.
Come out of the room.
Long Wenwen called it taking advantage of others' danger, but Meng Fangliao said no, it was called promoting our country's prestige, and Ah Yi also got excited.
Fighting and bickering over meals, bickering and bickering over meals.
Such days were interrupted by Japanese artillery fire within two days. For some reason, the Japanese attack was faster and more violent than Long Wenwen expected. Fortunately, Lin Yue got six mortars from an old British gangster.
, coupled with the support of Vickers artillery deployed at the airport, the Japanese army failed to charge several times.
A few days after the defensive battle began, an American transport plane landed at the airport in the dark.
Since the main force of the British army evacuated to the northwest, American planes have never been here again. At most, they dropped some supplies when Colonel Victor got angry, just like they were forgotten by Yu Xiaoqing, and it seemed that the British were also forgotten by their
Shangfeng abandoned it.
Long Wenwen knew that this plane was here to pick up foreigners who had not evacuated in time due to the sudden attack by the Japanese army, not to take them home. However, the strange thing was that the Japanese army was very honest tonight and did not take the opportunity to launch an offensive.
At midnight, Long Wenwen, who was sleeping soundly in the simple command post made of sandbags and wooden boards, was woken up by a voice, and Lin Yue, dressed in fireworks, came in from the outside.
"Hey, what's wrong with Camp Commander Lin? Why is this face dirtier than Doubian's face?"
"The Japanese army should not attack again before dawn. Victor has already left on an American plane, and the British troops stationed there are also retreating in an orderly manner. Now it is our turn, so tell everyone to leave quickly."
Long Wenwen was stunned for a moment: "Why didn't you go with the British? Were you fooled by that old rogue?"
Lin Yue stretched out his foot and stepped on the toe of his shoe: "If you talk nonsense again, I'll shoot you, Lieutenant Long."
"Hey...just a joke."
Long Wenwen left the command post with his shell gun and issued marching orders to the company, and hundreds of people began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
…
Kachin State is in the west and Yunnan is in the east. As long as you know the direction, go through the mountains and jungles, climb up to the Nantianmen, and cross the Nu River, you will find Zenda over there.
Returning to Zenda means going home.
Long Wenwen didn't say much about this march. Some people didn't understand, like Mi Long Yaoma and Li Wula. Seeing Lin Yue walking at the front, they thought this was a long-awaited initiative.
Meng Fanglia knew very well that there was no aircraft transportation, no support, and no flank protection. They were the last group left in Myanmar. All they could do now was to pray that there would be no Japanese ambush on the road. Taking the initiative to attack was something that was unthinkable.
He still couldn't figure out why Lin Yue, who was so close to the old gangster, completely ignored everyone's eagerness to go home.
In such a mood, it took until last night to convince Shi La Shi La to give up the position?
What on earth is that guy planning?
At the same time, Lin Yue threw a piece of chocolate to the young man next to him who was as big as a bean cake. He remembered that it was one of the prisoners of the expeditionary force rescued from the temple. He was small and thin, which made people look uncomfortable.
I was worried that the wind in the jungle would blow me away.
"What's your name? How old are you?"
"Sir, my name is Wu Sanxiang, nicknamed Bigfoot, and I am 17 years old."
"Who is he? How many years have you been a soldier?"
"Shandong." Wu Sanxiang held out two fingers: "I have been a soldier for two years."
Lin Yue lowered his head and glanced at the cloth shoes he was wearing: "Your feet are not big, so why are you nicknamed Big Feet?"
Wu Sanxiang's feet are not only small, they should be said to be underdeveloped, just like his body.
"When I was young, my family was poor, so I always chose my brothers' shoes to wear. They looked a bit too big, so they called me big feet."
"Why do you want to be a soldier?"
"Hey, being a soldier means you have food to eat."
"..."
Cuckoo~
Cuckoo~
Cuckoo cuckoo~
At this time, a cuckoo chirped from ahead.
Lin Yue stopped for a moment.
The team is a very strange thing. If he doesn't leave here, the people behind him will also stand still.
Long Wenwen ran over with his helmet in hand: "What's going on?"
"Tell everyone to rest where they are, while I go to explore the road ahead."
"I asked Ma and Snake Butt to accompany you."
"Need not."
Lin Yue declined his kindness and took his gun and ducked into the grass half a man tall next to him.
Meng Fanxia quickly walked to Long Wenwen: "Hey, look at Battalion Commander Lin, who is rushing to be the vanguard. He doesn't know how to write the word 'death', right?"
The thin and small soldier next to him looked at him with undisguised anger on his face.
"A piece of chocolate bought you off? Let's see... I'll see you next time as a vanguard."
Long Wenwen glared at him: "Meng Laizi, please go down and rest where you are."
…
After a while, the weeds behind Wu Sanxiang moved, and Lin Yue walked out with his back bent.
"Where's the artillery? Ask the artillery to bring those mortars over."
"Quick, quick, bring those mortars to Battalion Commander Lin." Long Wenwen came to his side: "Are there any Japanese in front?"
Lin Yue nodded.
"Approximately how many people"
"There are at least two small teams, both behind the slope of the forest ahead, and there are a few scouts on sentry in the trees."
"Eat them?"
"Nonsense." Lin Yue was very unhappy when he watched this plot. Now that he has the opportunity to kill the enemy, how could he escape from the battle: "You lead a company to outflank from over there, watch where the shells fall, and launch a charge to knock the Japanese out.
If you dare to go down the slope, I will take Milong and others to ambush below and let them taste the feeling of being defeated by your own tactics."
"good."
Long Wenwen agreed and took about a company of people to take a circuitous route to the target location through the rugged mountain road at the rear.
Lin Yue, Li Wula and the artillerymen quietly moved forward.
