According to the military department, although Lin Yue went to the division headquarters to warn Yu Xiaoqing that attacking Nantianmen might cause heavy casualties for the sake of the country, his rhetoric was too intense, which led to a riot in the guard company and almost started a civil war between the Sichuan Army and the Yu Division.

After a meeting and study, the military headquarters decided to deduct one month's salary from him. At the same time, considering the deep rift between the Sichuan Army and the Yu Division, and in order to avoid violent conflicts, Long Wenwen was ordered to lead the Sichuan Army to garrison in the northern mountainous area along the Nujiang River.

As for Master Yu, Yu Xiaoqing and Tang Ji's subordinates did not strictly record their faults. However, because the war was about to begin and it was the time to hire people, the punishment was temporarily suspended until the attack was over. In addition, due to the complex terrain of Nantianmen, it was difficult to defend.

It was difficult to attack, and the enemy had hidden many deadly arrangements. The military headquarters ordered the two division commanders Li and Wang to lead their troops and coordinate with the Yu Division to complete the attack mission.

Punishments like deducting one month's salary were meaningless to Lin Yue, but moving the Sichuan Army away from Zenda was a bit excessive.

When retreating from Burma, everyone had a small share of the credit for guarding the Nantianmen and stabilizing the river defense. Now Yu Division wants to take advantage of the critical moment of the Takeuchi Regiment and transfer the team to the north, which means that they do not want them to get even a little military glory. As for Yu Xiaoqing,

Although two teachers, Li and Wang, intervened, the main credit for conquering Nantianmen still belongs to him. As for the "suspension of punishment", it is just a reason for the higher-ups to help him escape guilt.

Therefore, for those who are paying attention to the situation in Nantianmen, it is obvious that the Sichuan Army Corps has been tricked by the military headquarters. The military commander who has always loved Colonel Lin made such an arrangement, and I am afraid there is a force behind it.

Whose hands are those?

Who else could it be besides Yu Xiaoqing’s father?

Compared with generals who only focus on meritorious service, promotion, fame and wealth, this arrangement is difficult to accept, but for the people of the Sichuan Army, no one complained. On the contrary, the old cannon fodder was very happy.

This time they went north to take over the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of Li Division, and the 4th Battalion guarded Yiniu Ridge to prevent the Japanese troops from Heshun and nearby areas from bypassing the Henglan Mountain position and invading Chanda.

In the past, the Japanese troops in northern Burma and the Yunnan border could indeed gather division-level forces to threaten the Nu River defenses. However, since Mutaguchi Lianya became the commander of the 15th Army, the Japanese army launched a combat plan code-named "Urban" with the goal of garrisoning the Nu River.

The British-Indian Army and the Chinese Expeditionary Force in the Imphal area on the India-Myanmar border.

A large number of Japanese troops marched from south to north driving cattle, sheep and other livestock. Even the garrison troops in the Yunnan border area also mobilized more than half of their troops to join this war. The Takeuchi Regiment is already considered the most complete Japanese army in the Yunnan border area.

Therefore, before the completion of the Battle of Imphal, the Japanese army could not spare the force to launch an attack on the Chinese army on the east bank of the Nu River.

In other words, the Sichuan Army Corps came to Buffalo Ridge just to fill the gap with men. The opposite side was not Nantianmen, and it was not at a key location on the Burma Highway. It would have no strategic significance to capture it.

No war means no danger to life, and you can still see the sky and earn military pay. How can you find this kind of life?

From south to north, Meng Fangliao was proud all the way, and Long Wenwen was depressed all the way.

Then, at first I was proud and depressed, and at first I was depressed and proud.

Lin Yue called Long Wenwen, A Yi, Meng Fanle, Li Wula, Master Mai, and the battalion commanders together and held a combat meeting for them.

The content was not to occupy favorable terrain to take over the defense line of the 3rd and 4th Battalions of the 2nd Regiment of Li Division, as on Jiqi Slope, but to cross the Nu River and go to the enemy-occupied area.

No one expected that things would change like this.

"This operation has been submitted to the military department for approval. While the Third Division of Yu and Li Wang attacked Nantianmen, the first and second battalions of the guard companies will cross the river in batches from here, here, and here." Lin Yue pointed to the map and said: "The caravan

Road, smuggling road, bandit road, Master Yu's people thought that after the Xingtiandu was blown up, there would be no way to cross the river except boats, ha... plus the waterway where you went to pick up Meng's father last time, old man Guang Chanda knew

There are five or six ways to cross the river. You should know about this, Captain Long."

Long Wenwen smiled charmingly and said, "I can't deceive you in anything."

"No." Meng Fan shook the map and said, "Why are we going to the enemy-occupied area? Fighting Heshun? Poking at the back door of the Takeuchi Regiment? Don't forget the two lines of defense on the reverse slope. With the strength of our regiment, we can fully

It has no diversionary effect.”

"Feng Ni is right. If the war gets desperate and the Japanese troops in the Heshun area come to hear the news, even if there are not many people available, they can annihilate us all with the help of long-range artillery and aircraft bombing."

Not to mention, Li Wula went to the Lanjia training camp and really learned something.

"Who said I was going to attack Nantianmen? It was the Yu, Li and Wang Third Divisions that helped us contain the Japanese army, okay?" Lin Yue's hand moved westward on the map, all the way to the Chindun River on the India-Myanmar border: "Our goal is

Here. According to the news from the front line, the Japanese army is fighting fiercely with the British-Indian Army and the Expeditionary Force in India in the Imphal area. If a surprise force appears behind the enemy's rear and cuts off the material and medicine supply lines, what impact will it have on the war situation?"

Arthur McLuhan looked at him blankly: "Is this the big battle you told me about before? OH, this is really crazy."

After this period of development, the Sichuan Army has expanded from more than 1,000 to more than 1,400. But even so, how big a splash can it make in a big battle with more than 200,000 troops? The Japanese army can divide into two or three brigades.

They can be wiped out quickly.

Lin Yue said with a smile: "The Japanese army will definitely lose this battle. I said in front of you that the Sichuan Army's march to Burma will disrupt the enemy's long supply line and give our army an opportunity to win. He said that this will definitely be a hard battle.

, you have to be mentally prepared. But actually we are going to pick peaches. If the Sichuan Army sets off early tomorrow morning, it will arrive near the Chindwin River at the end of June. I guarantee that what will appear in front of you then will be a wonderful sight."

"Remember what happened when we entered Myanmar? The British went crazy and the Japanese went crazy chasing them. As long as you follow my plan, I promise to let you experience the Japanese going crazy and the Chinese chasing them crazy.

feeling.”

Arthur McLuhan looked at the Japanese attack route and the bases of the British-Indian Army and the Expeditionary Force in India outlined on the map and said: "What if the Japanese won this war?"

Lin Yue did not answer the question, but just looked at him with a smile.

In the Battle of Imphal, the Allied forces outnumbered the Japanese, and the enemy had to travel a long distance. The climate and geography were not conducive to the attackers. Even without his reminders and suggestions, Mutaguchi Lian would not have been able to win.

"Okay, if you insist on doing this." Master Mai shook his head, recalling what Lin Yue said a few months ago. It seemed that he had predicted that the Japanese army would make a big move at the beginning of the year.

Master Mai stopped talking, and Long Wenwen asked a question: "The enemy has occupied Myanmar for many years, and must have placed a large number of informants on key road sections. Even if we pass through the caravan road and the smuggling road across the river, how can we touch Burma under the enemy's nose?"
