Dongdongdongdongdong, after a long time, a burst of rapid footsteps came from far and near.

Yang Fan suddenly opened his eyes and saw a communications officer walking hurriedly with a flushed face. He stood still when he was one meter away, and then stood attentively and reported:

"The chief rank, the 1st Air Force Division, the 2nd Air Division and General Chennard's American Air Brigade have launched a ladder attack on the Japanese positions and defense areas as planned. The 1,004 combat aircraft under our Air Force have completed two batches of combat missions and are preparing to implement the upcoming Japanese Air Force interception operations!

The 1st Army, 2nd Army, 3rd Army, 4th Army, 5th Army, armored troops, artillery units, Myanmar guards, the 22nd Army, the 31st Army, the 5th Army, the 6th Army, the 66th Army, the 71st Army, and the Red Independent Division have launched a comprehensive counterattack as planned. At present, the various combat troops are progressing smoothly!

The special combat division, helicopter brigade, and airborne regiment are ready and can be put into battle at any time!

The naval submarine force also sailed out of the naval base as planned and was heading to the Madaban bend at the mouth of the Xidang River. It is expected to enter combat in three hours!"

"Okay, I get it. You can go busy!"

Yang Fan nodded slightly and felt relieved. The start is good and it is very smooth.

But "one move will bring down again and then the third one will bring down", whether you can push the high ground and directly blow up the crystal is the key to this decisive battle.

Because, compared with the Japanese Myanmar Expeditionary Army, the overall strength of the Chinese army is actually still at a weak point. If the Japanese Myanmar Expeditionary Army cannot be defeated directly with a fierce offensive, a stalemate will be formed.

The Myanmar Expeditionary Army, who reacted, will definitely fight back and retaliate like crazy, and the entire Chinese Expeditionary Army will suffer an unbearable price of casualties.

"yes!"

The communications officer raised his head and raised his chest and raised his butt and saluted a solemn salute, turned around and walked away.

Li Zongren spat deeply and said, "It's finally started. It's been ten years. We can finally turn from defense to offense, straighten our backs and start a head-on decisive battle with the Japanese!"

"yes!"

Stilwell nodded slightly and said, "The strategic counterattack on the Myanmar battlefield has finally begun. There is finally a battlefield that has shifted from passive defense to active offensive stage, which will surely become a great and conquering historical event."

Stilwell is almost 60 years old, but he also has a hot heart and a strong sense of justice and mission.

Of course, "a soldier who doesn't want to be a marshal is not a good soldier." If he can add another star to his shoulder before formal retirement, become a four-star general, and write the most perfect footnote for his military career, then General Stilwell will definitely wake up laughing when he sleeps!

As for the highest military rank of the super-ranked general (which is usually called the five-star general) that only 10 people in the history of the United States, the United States has not yet established this rank.

The "Five-Star General" epaulette is inlaid with five star badges, which is equivalent to the rank of marshals in other Western countries until it was approved by the US Congress in December 1944.

Therefore, Stilwell's current highest goal and ideal is just four stars. He could not imagine that in the future, he would have more than four stars on his shoulders and would become one of the winners of the highest military rank in American history!

If Yang Fan leaked the secret in advance, he told Stilwell that a few years later, the US government would set up an unprecedented five-star rank of special generals specifically for the theater commanders during World War II. As long as you follow me and you will be very likely to become a brilliant super general in the future with American history!

I'm afraid General Stilwell will definitely fall off his chin and even accidentally have a heart attack!

...

On the east bank of Xidang River, Menghe Town is 50 kilometers away from the Tonggucheng.

This is the defense zone of the 12th Division of the 19th Army of the Japanese. In the past month, the Japanese have established an extremely solid and complete defensive fortification system here.

In addition, this place is more than 30 kilometers away from the front-line battlefield, so it did not suffer a severe blow under the first round of saturated artillery bombardment, but was only hit by a blow in the subsequent large-scale pass-through aircraft bombing.

It was already 6:50 am, the sun was rising from the east and it was completely bright.

After more than two hours of rapid advance, the armored troops of the Tiger Ben Second Army advanced all the way, tearing through several Japanese defense lines and advancing to the last solid defense line in front of the 19th Army of the Japanese.

The 12th Division of the Japanese who had no choice but to fight with the 12th Division of the Japanese, and used all their strength to fight fiercely with the armored forces of the Hu Ben Army, who were in full swing.

Before this, the Japanese Air Force had already emerged. Thousands of Japanese combat aircraft were divided into three groups to provide firepower support to the Japanese ground troops, and they also competed for air supremacy with the Chinese Air Force.

Just as Yang Fan said and asked, put aside all his concerns and even if he was selling his business, he would have to make a big fuss and burst out all his strength and potential.

The brave ones won the battle when they met on a narrow road. Facing the Japanese Air Force troops who were in full swing, all Myanmar combat aircraft pilots, including the American Air Brigade led by Chennard, all entered this vigorous air decisive battle.

Knowing that the Myanmar Expeditionary Force had suffered the most serious survival crisis, the Japanese aviation troops were all red and took out all their belongings to fight to the death.

The Japanese fighter crew fought desperately, and they disdained the pressure and fire support of the Japanese ground troops at all costs.

The Japanese bomber group bombed the ground forces of the Chinese Expeditionary Force without hesitation. They could no longer care about the threat of Chinese fighter jets and ground anti-aircraft artillery fire. They all turned into a kamikaze suicide squad.

Even if they are injured and lose control ability, the Japanese pilots will fly combat aircraft to dive head-on toward the Chinese combat troops on the ground at the last moment of their lives and play with their own detonation, exerting their final remaining heat.

Later, even dozens of carrier-based aircraft from the Japanese special fleet were put into battle.

An unprecedented air battle was launched in the airspace of tens of thousands of square kilometers above Myanmar. The air forces of both sides of the enemy and us tried their best and tried their best to cause as much damage to their opponents as possible!

The Japanese fleet broke into Madaban Bay and forced into the entrance of the Xidang River, intending to support the divided and besieged Japanese Myanmar dispatched troops along the Xidang River!

The coastal defense line of the Chinese Hu Ben Army, and the various coastal defense artillery batteries at the entrance of the Xidang River were all aimed at the artillery fire of the Japanese fleet, and they were all in their efforts to attack and intercept them.

After two or three hours of sneaking, the naval submarine troops ordered to join the war in Madaban Bay have arrived near the mouth of the Xidang River and are quietly waiting for the Japanese fleet to approach the coastline.

The Japanese took out all their belongings and fought hard, and Yang Fan also fought hard, and never hid it anymore. The three armies of the navy, army and air were all out, and bloody battles were being staged in all battlefields!
