Chapter 851
Bai Chongxi nodded and said, "What the Commissioner said is very true. I have also received relevant information. The 33rd Division of the Japanese have indeed been strengthened unprecedentedly. Currently, there are 9 corpses under its command, including 4 full-scale infantry corps!
Moreover, his division commander, Lieutenant General Sakai Shimai, is a graduate of the saber group of the 31st Phase of the Sabre Group of the Japanese Army University, and a serious commander of the Japanese Army Infantry Division!
The strength of the 33rd Division cannot be underestimated. Now the Sanshuoshi is determined to break through the 31st Army position, which is indeed a great test and challenge!"
Chairman Jiang frowned and said, "So, Jiansheng, are you also worried that the 31st Army will not be able to stop the Japanese attack?"
Bai Chongxi nodded slightly and said, "Behind the 33rd Division, not only is there a huge Japanese Guard Division, but also a powerful air force and navy that can provide strong support at any time!"
Bai Chongxi's strategic vision is obviously higher than Liu Shiyi. Not only did he see that if he continues to fight like this, the 31st Army will suffer an unbearable severe damage, but it is also very likely that it will really tear a hole from here, thus disrupting the entire Myanmar layout!
At this time, He Yingqin said with some resentment: "What Jiansheng said is very true. Stilwell and Yang Fan didn't know what they were doing, and they actually placed their main forces on the defense line on the west bank of the Salwin River!
Isn’t this obviously going to attack the enemy’s strengths with one’s own weaknesses? Did we suffer less losses along the Yangtze River during the Battle of Songhu?”
"Enough, why are you going so far?"
Chairman Jiang's face was a little dark. Although he knew that He Yingqin was not leading the rhythm to reveal his old truth, the Battle of Shanghai was a pain that would never be gone in his heart.
After a pause, Chairman Jiang looked at the sand table, and then Dai Li asked: "Where is the armored corps of the 200th Division of the 5th Army? The armored corps just restrained the infantry and was used in great use at this time. Why is the troops still not moving? Quickly send power to Du Yuming and ask him what's going on!"
In fact, Chairman Jiang had received Du Yuming's report, that was, Wei Yunsong politely rejected the 5th Army's request for support.
Chairman Jiang is now taking the initiative to mention this matter. On the surface, he is blaming the Fifth Army for not moving his troops, but in fact he is making a high-profile gesture, indicating that the Central Army will fight unswervingly with the local army and be in the bloody city!
Dai Li quickly understood and replied: "Reporting to the committee, Commander Du has taken the initiative to send an armored corps to support the 31st Army, but Commander Wei was worried that the armored troops would be bombed by the Japanese Air Force, so he politely refused!"
"What? Why is this happening!"
Chairman Jiang shouted in surprise, then looked at Bai Chongxi and Liu Shiyi.
Liu Shiyi seemed to understand something, and quickly tried to explain: "I think the armored corps of the 200th Division should be a trump card in the Myanmar war zone. Both the Chief Command and the Commander Wei have considered it!"
Chairman Jiang glared and said, "Good steel is used on the blade. At this time, can you still give up because you are afraid of the Japanese bombing?
The third wave of the Japanese crossing forces is about to arrive on the west bank. At that time, there will be at least a thousand Japanese soldiers. If they fight with their flesh and blood, how many people will die?"
Chairman Jiang was indeed a little anxious and worried. Although the 31st Army belonged to a local miscellaneous army, the current war in Myanmar is inseparable from this Gui army wolf soldier who can fight hard battles and bloody battles.
If the war is directly disabled on the first day, which army will continue to resist the long-lasting tough battle?
In order to protect the Yunnan-Burma Highway, Chairman Chiang has tried his best to draw elite troops into Myanmar to fight. He also hopes that the 300,000 expeditionary troops can be defended for a long time and no longer need to send additional troops from the country to reinforce!
Chairman Jiang still understands the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, so you must not refuse to save your life at this time. You must take action when it is time to take action!
At the same time, Chairman Jiang is also very much looking forward to the Armored Corps of the 200th Division, the direct line of the National Army, which has high hopes, to win the Myanmar War Zone, and to give himself a strong face!
"Report, the latest news in Myanmar!"
It seemed to be confirming the wise foresight of Member Jiang. At this time, a communications consultant hurriedly ran into the war room and said with a very fast speech:
"The third wave of the 33rd Division of the Japanese crossing the river has arrived on the west coast while the chaos has taken advantage of the chaos. Among them, eight Japanese tanks have landed at the same time. At present, the total number of Japanese troops on the west coast is as large as 9,500.
The 31st Army has successively invested nearly 30,000 troops to engage in a life-and-death battle with the Japanese aggressors. The current battle situation is extremely fierce, and the 31st Army's defense line is in danger!"
"ah?"
Liu Shiyi couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh my god, just count the number of troops crossing the river that the Japanese have invested today has reached as many as 14,000!
The 31st Army just ate these nearly 10,000 Japanese soldiers with vitality, and I am afraid that 10,000 or 20,000 people would be killed or injured.
But it is obvious that at the current pace, the Japanese Guard Division on the other side will not sit idly by. It is very likely that the Guard Division will continue to increase its troops after the infantry corps of the 33rd Division is sent to the West Bank.
Even the Japanese would dispatch a large number of fighter jets, bombers would cooperate in combat, and use transport planes to attack and send paratroopers to airborne!
Chen Cheng said in a serious tone: "It's not OK to continue fighting like this! The Japanese devils have even started to cross the river. We are still fighting hard with their flesh and blood. It's really a disadvantage!"
Zhang Zhizhong nodded and said, "Yes, the quality of the Japanese individual soldiers is much stronger than ours. Nearly 10,000 Japanese infantry fight in close combat is not a joke!"
"It's hard to deal with now!"
"Hey, what's going on? Didn't you always say that Yang Fan spent a huge amount of money to build a solid defense line along the river in Myanmar, enough to block the Japanese army for several months?"
"Yes, why can't you do it just because you just started fighting a tough battle?"
"What are Yang Fan's Chinese Tiger Army doing now? Don't they have planes and tanks?"
"I'm afraid it won't work with the Japanese like this?"
After hearing this new news, He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, Zhang Zizhong and others shook their heads. For a long time, the Japanese have repeatedly defeated the more with few battles, and have deeply imprinted the terrifying mark of the Japanese being able to fight five with one or even one against ten with one.
“…”
Bai Chongxi frowned and said nothing, because in his opinion, anything he said at this time was unnecessary.
Not to mention that the command of the front-line battlefield in Myanmar is not in Chongqing, even if it is in Chongqing, it is probably difficult to do it like an arm and finger. It can quickly change the direction of the battle with a few commands.
For the sake of the present, we can only hope that the Myanmar War Zone Chief Command can take timely remedial measures and completely block this gap with the fastest speed and the toughest means!
Otherwise, today the 31st Army was destined to be damaged, and it is very likely that the entire defense line along the river would collapse!
Chairman Jiang's eyes narrowed, feeling that the situation was serious, and he didn't care about overreaching power or overreaching power. He immediately turned to Dai Li and ordered in a deep voice:
"Send a telegram to Dai Li immediately, and ask him to force the armored troops to the position of the 135th Division of the 31st Army, cooperate with the brothers to cleanly eliminate the Japanese troops, and tie up the holes tightly!"
