Chapter 101 The Takeuchi Regiment Attacks

Chanda City was originally a small ancient city, and at most it could be considered a town. Feng Yuntian and Shewu chatted all the way and left the alley in the south of the city and soon arrived at the division headquarters.

Feng Yuntian first went to pay homage to Yu Xiaoqing and expressed his purpose.

The current intelligence of the expeditionary forces and the movements of the Japanese army are confidential military secrets. Under normal circumstances, a battalion commander has no right to check it.

But given Feng Yuntian's achievements in combat and Yu Xiaoqing was determined to recruit talents.

The franchise granted permissions.

Through Yu Xiaoqing's license, Feng Yuntian obtained a large amount of information about the expeditionary forces and the current attack trends of the Japanese army from the division headquarters.

First of all the departments of the Expeditionary Force.

The Allied Commander's Office has successfully retreated to hardness. Luo Zhuoying led the commander's Office to cut off the rear and then accommodated the scattered troops. He arrived at the hardness Impal on the 23rd.

Lieutenant General Stilwell, chief of staff of the Chinese theater, led a few Chinese and American personnel to continue traveling west on foot and arrived in Dinsuki, India on the 24th.

In an emergency telephone during the retreat, Stilwell mentioned for the first time that the establishment of a base in India was to carry out the plan of the Chinese team and counterattack of Myanmar.

He then agreed to the plan and began to make further adjustments.

The commander of the Fifth Army refused the Allied Army's order to enter India, and after telegram, the Chairman turned to Myitkyina and retreated in the direction of Phama.

As a result, in the Jessa area in northern Myanmar, I encountered the pursuit troops of the 56th Japanese Division and had to divert to Mansi.

After the Fifth Army successfully arrived in Mansi, the newly formed 38th Division, which was traveling with the Fifth Army, broke away from the Japanese army on the 13th and decided to leave the Fifth Army and go west.

And successfully crossed the India-Myanmar border and arrived in Impal, India.

This is the only division in the entire army that has not suffered major losses, maintained a complete system, and successfully completed the retreat mission.

The newly formed 22nd Division, which was directly under the Fifth Army headquarters, walked in the forest in the rain on its way to Daluo and Xinwangyang in the Hukang Valley, on its way back.

It was the rainy season when the mountain torrent broke out, and the troops had no food and medicine. They were almost Xinbeiyang and had no food for eight days.

Officers and soldiers were hungry and sick, and died a lot.

By the end of the 25th report date, the number of deaths from the newly compiled 22nd Division alone due to hunger and disease has exceeded 1,800.

When he saw this information, Feng Yuntian was in a very heavy mood as a soldier with the same roots.

There are more than 1,800 people!!

They were not brave soldiers on the battlefield, and they could even bite the Japanese before they died, but they all starved to death and died of illness.

What a tragic ending.

If you travel westward to get the hardness, these more than 1,000 people would have survived.

How to...

Some people's strong desire to control themselves has ruined so many soldiers of the expeditionary army.

Feng Yuntian could only sigh, glad that he successfully brought back more than 1,000 Sichuan Army brothers and did his best.

The 96th Division and the 5th Army artillery and one engineer, were ordered to go through Menggong, Mengguan and grapes to return to western Yunnan.

After the battle in the Taung Chi area, the 200th Division, which retreated between Bamo and Nankan, met with the 5th Army's Re-training Office, the 66th Army's newly formed 28th Division and other remaining troops on May 10.

It should have been a good thing for the retreat to grow stronger, but on the 18th, I encountered misfortune.

While crossing the blockade of Xibo and Mogou Highway, they were ambushed by the Japanese army. Commander Dai of the 200th Division was hit in the chest and abdomen by two machine gun bullets from the Japanese ambush troops when they broke through.

The injury is very serious!

During the Battle of Xuzhou in May 1938, Feng Yuntian followed the commander Dai, who was then the regiment commander, and fought fiercely with the Japanese army in Zhongai Mountain for four days and nights.

Feng Yuntian was demoted to platoon leader for taking the blame at that time, and was fortunate to meet with Commander Dai several times.

Unfortunately, Commander Dai was later promoted to the position of deputy commander of the 89th Division and chief of the cadre training class of the 31st Army Headquarters, resulting in no intersection afterwards.

Now that I saw this familiar name again, Commander Dai was seriously injured during the retreat.

Although Feng Yuntian already knew his ending, he secretly scolded God for not opening his eyes. In addition to the sorrow that he felt heartbroken, he could only pray for him silently in his heart.

I hope that the butterfly wing effect brought by him will affect this brave and warlike senior Huangpu.

The other 66th Army have returned to China and are heading for Yongping.

The remaining sixth army units left Myanmar one after another, the 49th Division retreated to Dagao, and the vanguard of the 55th Division arrived at Mengset and deployed along the Myanmar-Thailand border.

The 49th Division retreated to Nanzhi, the 55th Division and Liu Guanlong Detachment temporarily retreated to Cheli, the army retreated to Fohai, and the 93rd Division served as the rear guard.

After checking the information at Fengyun Tiannan Division, the first battle in Myanmar was basically over.

A total of 103,000 people have been dispatched, and the casualties are currently more than 40,000. Several divisions are still on the way to retreat, and the casualties are still increasing.

This terrifying number of casualties is so tragic.

Compared with the tragic end of the Expeditionary Force, the number of Japanese soldiers killed and injured reported by various departments was less than 5,000.

Among them, there were 875 people, and they were from the Sichuan Army's Novez Airport victory.

Through this victory, the Japanese army successfully controlled the entire Myanmar, blocked the international transportation lines to aid China, and opened the door to attack India in the west.

Forced the original international combat supplies to China to be transported through the Hump Route and China-India Highway.

With the entire Myanmar as the rear, the Japanese army had the capital to attack southern Yunnan.

The information from the division headquarters is detailed...

On May 3, the 56th Japanese division commanded by Lieutenant General Yuzo Matsuyama, totaling more than 20,000 per day, officially crossed the Sino-Myanmar border and invaded Wancheng from Myanmar.

On May 4, Mangshi and Longling were occupied.

On May 5, Baoshan County fell.

On May 10, the Japanese army invaded Tengchong County.

During this period, hundreds of overseas Chinese who evacuated from Myanmar to these places were killed and injured by the Japanese army. Only a small number of overseas Chinese escaped and continued to flee towards the Nujiang River along the way.

The ultimate goal of the Japanese army was Chongqing, and it was not a stop to attack.

May 20.

After suppressing the main rebellious forces in each county, the Matsuyama Yuuki Division sent the Takeuchi Liaison Team as the vanguard and began to continue invading towards Nujiang.

Five days have passed since today, and according to the speed of the Japanese army.

At most two days, the Takeuchi Lianshi army will appear by the Nujiang River.

As the first battalion of the main force of the Nujiang Defense Line, Feng Yuntian was under great pressure and was extremely heavy on his way back from the division headquarters.

There is only a little time left to prepare...
