In order to deal with the threat of the British Army and Yuanzheng Army, Yamashita Tomoe dispatched an infantry regiment of the 18th Division from Singapore and crossed the Denver Strait to Kuala Lumpur; at the same time, he ordered the commander of the Kawamoto Division to organize troops to fight against the British Army and Yuanzheng Army.
.We had to let the matter of dealing with Xu Dalong and the guerrilla detachment go.
The actions of the British army and the Yuanzheng army were arranged by Xu Dalong. He decided to take advantage of the fact that the Japanese army could not take care of him, and immediately launched an offensive against the Japanese army to cooperate with the actions of the Yuanzheng army.
Before the troops are moved, intelligence comes first. Xu Dalong has always attached great importance to intelligence work. Under his leadership, the guerrilla detachment established a special intelligence team. With the help of Mr. Chen, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce also established an intelligence team. These two
Each intelligence department is directed by Xu Dalong.
The members of the intelligence team of the guerrilla detachment are all locals. They have many relatives and friends, and their connections are very complex. It can be said that they are well-informed and have a very detailed grasp of the situation of the local Japanese and puppet troops. The power of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is even greater, and they
They have a wide range of sources of information, and they can also transmit information on the mobilization of Japanese and puppet troops in Malaysia and Singapore in a timely manner.
Wei Dayong contacted Xu Dalong and said that they had met Wang Jin and had entered Malaysia. They were only more than 100 kilometers away from Maiba Town. After hearing the good news, Xu Dalong decided to postpone the action until Wei Dayong and others arrived.
From now on, we will launch an attack together.
After all, Chen Asong was young and strong, and the injuries on his body did not damage his muscles and bones, and he recovered quickly. He and Wang Jin found Wei Dayong and saw that he had brought so many troops, especially a squadron of more than 200 troops.
As a special forces member, he became more confident about the future of the Anti-Japanese War and acted very actively. After arriving at a place he was familiar with, he took the initiative to serve as a guide.
Wei Dayong led a special force and a reinforced battalion of the Yunnan Army to secretly pass through the areas controlled by the Japanese and puppets. The team of nearly a thousand people was silent and did not alert the Japanese and puppet troops.
Wang Jin introduced Chen Asong's situation to Wei Dayong. Wei Dayong also had a good impression of Chen Asong. When he learned that Chen Asong wanted to join the special forces, Wei Dayong promised to give him a chance to test. When the unit arrived at its destination, it was stable.
After he comes down, he will be given special operations training. If he can adapt, he will be recruited to join the special operations team.
Chen Asong was so excited that he vowed to work harder and pass the special team's inspection.
On this day, Wei Dayong received a telegram from Xu Dalong, asking them to speed up their march and rush to Maiba Town as soon as possible to participate in the next battle.
That night, Chen Asong took the initiative to serve as a guide and opened the road ahead with Wang Jin. They walked in the dark for more than 20 kilometers. At 4 o'clock in the morning, they encountered a blockade built by the Japanese and puppets. This blockade was made of
Made of bamboo fence.
The last time Xu Dalong and others crossed the blockade from here, but the situation has changed. At that time, the number of Japanese and puppet troops was larger and the blockade was tighter. But now that the puppet troops have been mobilized in large numbers, the Japanese troops on the blockade have
The strength of the troops was obviously insufficient. At that time, Japanese and puppet troops were guarding the artillery towers very close to each other, but now, except for places near villages and towns, other strongholds are deserted.
The special forces team led by Wang Jin conducted reconnaissance and determined that there were no Japanese and puppet troops in this area. He reported to Wei Dayong, and then the special forces team began to dismantle the bamboo fence, and then the large troops began to cross the road.
At this moment, lights appeared on the highway in the distance. Judging from the number of car lights, this convoy consisted of thirty or forty vehicles. The cars were driving towards here, and Wei Dayong immediately ordered the troops to hide.
At this moment, the radio station's indicator light suddenly lit up, and a telegram was sent. In order to avoid exposing the target, the operator hurriedly took off his hat and covered the flashing indicator light.
The Japanese convoy came over and passed by the highway in a mighty manner. The special operations team members and the officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army on the side of the highway could vaguely see with the help of the car lights that the vehicles were full of heavily armed Japanese. There were some.
Many trucks were towing cannons behind them, and it seemed that they were heading towards Myanmar.
After the Japanese convoy moved away, the radio operator reported the situation to Wei Dayong. Wei Dayong instructed the radio operator to pay attention to copying telegrams at all times, and then led all the troops across the highway and continued to move forward.
Soon after, the radio's indicator light came on again. The operator copied the message, which was sent by Xu Dalong, saying that there was a battle on their side and asking Wei Dayong and others to speed up their march.
After reading the message sent by Xu Dalong, Wei Dayong called Chen Asong and asked him about the nearest town. Wei Dayong wanted to seize the vehicle from there so that he could rush to reinforce Xu Dalong as soon as possible. As for alerting the Japanese and puppet troops, he no longer cared about it.
There was nothing we could do about it. The troops had been marching all night, and they were still more than 70 kilometers away from Xu Dalong and the others. It was impossible to catch up on foot, and they had to use transportation.
Chen Asong told Wei Dayong that there was a county town more than ten kilometers away from here. Wei Dayong did not hesitate and ordered Chen Asong to lead the way and march quickly with the troops.
Following Wei Dayong was a reinforcement battalion sent by the Second Division of the Yunnan Army. All of these officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army were also good, although their physical fitness was slightly lower than that of the special operations team members.
However, their performance was very tenacious. From Yangon City to here, none of the officers and soldiers in the battalion were left behind. Although they had already trekked all night, they still cheered up and continued the rapid march with the special forces members.
.
The officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army were able to show such tenacity to a certain extent because they were inspired by the special forces members. They admired the strength of those special operations members.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army are also good men in the army. They want to have face. Seeing that the special forces members can persist, they all gritted their teeth and persisted.
Come down.
Why did Xu Dalong and the others suddenly have a fight?
Captain Watanabe was very active in dealing with Xu Dalong, but others did not know that he had his own Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. The reason why he proposed that the Air Force participate in the war was actually because he did not want to fight Xu Dalong. Facing Xu Dalong like this
He was an extremely tough opponent, and he had no confidence in winning.
Watanabe made excessive demands in order to delay time. If his superiors were unable to send the air force to join the war, and he led his team to fight Xu Dalong and failed, he would have reason to shirk responsibility.
However, the superiors readily agreed and sent the air force to cooperate with his wing in combat. Watanabe had no excuse and had to bite the bullet and prepare to attack Xu Dalong. They were very lucky. At this moment, Chuan
The British army and the Yuanzheng army arrived at the Myanmar-Malaysia border, and there were signs of an attack on the Japanese army in Malaysia.
His superiors were about to mobilize Watanabe's troops to deal with the Yuanzheng Army and the British Army, and he breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he didn't take it seriously at all, whether it was the British Army or the Yuanzheng Army. They had to deal with the same size.
The British Army and the Yuanzheng Army were full of confidence that they would win, even if they were to use a regiment to deal with an enemy division or even an army.
Facing Xu Dalong, although he heard that he only had dozens of special forces and hundreds of guerrillas with backward equipment and training, his heart was pounding. None of the Japanese generals who had fought with Xu Dalong before
He was able to please him. He himself was Xu Dalong's defeated general, and now he had no confidence at all to fight Xu Dalong.
Now that Watanabe had such a good excuse, he acted very proactively. He immediately convened a meeting of officers above the squadron commander to get them ready to go to the Myanmar-Malaysia border to deal with the British and Yuanzheng troops.
Takakura and Tanaka wanted to use Watanabe's power to deal with Xu Dalong. They racked their brains and made a lot of efforts to satisfy Watanabe's request for the air force to participate in the war.
Unexpectedly, things changed again. The Watanabe Regiment was about to be transferred, and their attempt to round up Xu Dalong suddenly failed, which made them extremely disappointed.
The two found Watanabe, hoping that he could launch an attack on Xu Dalong's troops before heading to the Myanmar-Malaysia border. Watanabe refused outright. Takakura and Tanaka could see it. At the beginning, they
Watanabe was asked to deal with Xu Dalong, but Watanabe was procrastinating, but when he heard that the troops were about to leave the Myanmar-Malaysia border, Watanabe acted so quickly. It was obvious that Watanabe did not want to fight Xu Dalong.
Takakura and Tanaka were unwilling to give in, but they had no choice. In the past, their superiors had assigned three squadrons of fast mobile troops to them, but they had already taken them back. They were now bare commanders, and the only troops they could mobilize were some military police and puppet troops.
The army relied on these people, and even the two of them did not have the confidence to deal with Xu Dalong.
Both Takakura and Tanaka were unwilling to give in. They held an emergency consultation and then sent a telegram to Yamashita Fengfumi, stating the dangers of Xu Dalong, and suggested that the Watanabe Regiment launch an offensive campaign against Xu Dalong's headquarters before setting off, first to eliminate Xu Dalong, and then
Then go deal with the British army and the Yuanzheng army.
After Yamashita received the telegram jointly sent by Takakura and Tanaka, after repeated deliberation, he agreed with Takakura's opinion and issued an order to the commander of the Kawamoto Division, asking him to mobilize the 20th Regiment of the 5th Division to go to Burma.
The Japanese army encountered by Wei Dayong and others at the border was part of the 20th Regiment.
Yamashita ordered the Fifth Division to dispatch the Watanabe Regiment to attack Xu Dalong's headquarters in accordance with the original combat plan. He emphasized that the main goal of this combat operation was to deal with Xu Dalong, and he must make every effort to capture or capture Xu Dalong alive.
Destroy Xu Dalong.
After receiving the telegram from Yamashita Nobumi, the commander of the Kawamoto Division made a phone call to the Watanabe Regiment and asked him to carry out Yamashita Nobumi's orders.
After sending a telegram to Yamashita Fengfumi, Takakura and Tanaka were very anxious, waiting for a reply from their superiors. At this moment, a staff officer brought by Takakura told Takakura that the liaison staff sent by the Air Force was unable to contact him due to the Watanabe alliance.
The team no longer planned to attack Xu Dalong's headquarters, so he had already driven away.
Takakura and Tanaka were very anxious after hearing this. If the Air Force did not participate in the war, Captain Watanabe would definitely drag his feet, and there would be no hope of eliminating Xu Dalong. The two briefly discussed it and Tanaka drove there.
Chase the Air Force Major who has left.
On the road, Tanaka kept urging the driver to speed up. They hurriedly and slowly caught up with the Air Force Major four hours later. They begged the Air Force Major to stay temporarily and wait for orders from their superiors.
The Air Force Major refused to pay attention to them and insisted on returning to his unit. Tanaka gritted his teeth and took out the five large yellow croakers he had collected, stuffed them into the Air Force Major's hands, and asked him to help the Watanabe Wing to fight this.
battle.
For the sake of the gold bars, the Air Force Major agreed to Tanaka's request and returned to the Watanabe Wing with him.
After Captain Watanabe received the order from the commander of the Kawamoto Division, he felt numb and wanted to find an excuse to shirk it. However, the division commander said in the order that this was an order from Yamashita Fumi and he must execute it.
Watanabe had no choice. Fortunately, the Air Force liaison officer had left. Watanabe hoped that the Air Force would refuse to participate in the war, so as to give him an excuse not to attack Xu Dalong. However, he underestimated the determination of Takakura and Tanaka. Tanaka would
The guy actually invited the Air Force Major back who had left. Now he no longer had any excuse to shirk, so he gathered his team and attacked in the direction of Maiba Town.
Based on the suggestions of Takakura and Tanaka, Watanabe decided to carry out a night attack on Maiba Town. The main purpose of the operation was to encircle Maiba Town and prevent Xu Dalong and others from taking advantage of the chaos to break through. They only built an encirclement on the outside to prevent them from escaping.
We plan to wait until daybreak and then send planes to carry out bombings to eliminate the effective strength of Xu Dalong's troops as much as possible. If we can directly kill Xu Dalong, then everything will be fine; even if we can't kill him, we can still eliminate most of the guerrillas, and then deal with Xu Dalong.
It will be much easier to handle.
On the issue of dealing with Xu Dalong, Watanabe, Takakura and Tanaka were all very cautious. In order to prevent Xu Dalong from noticing their intentions, they first let out the news and said that the troops were going to the Myanmar-Malaysia border to deal with the British army and the Yuanzheng army. In this case
Next, it seems normal for the troops to make preparations before departure.
That night, Watanabe and others led a large group of people to leave Zhencheng and drive towards the Myanmar-Malaysia border. They suddenly turned around on the road and took a detour to hit Maiba Town, hoping to catch Xu Dalong off guard.
It is a pity that Watanabe and others still underestimated Xu Dalong's vigilance. The 19th Japanese Regiment in Zhencheng was the Japanese army that threatened the guerrillas the most, so it was naturally Xu Dalong's focus. He sent special
The team members and the personnel of the guerrilla intelligence team monitored the actions of the Japanese 19th Regiment day and night.
