Zhou Weiguo also heard the contents of the telegram, and Dai Anlan did not evade it. After all, Zhou Weiguo was now considered a member of the 200 Division. Of course, he was not really a member of the 200 Division. However, from the current point of view, they were one.
"Here's the order, all ministries pack up and set out for Baoshan at 11 o'clock. We must arrive at Baoshan before dark." After Dai Anlan finished speaking, several people nodded. They were an infantry division, so they packed up fairly quickly.
It's just the supplies and stuff that are more troublesome.
So, except Dai Anlan, everyone stood up and went to give orders to their subordinates.
"At this moment, you are the only one free." Dai Anlan laughed loudly, "Will you go to Baoshan with us this time?"
"Of course, I should be a member of the 200th Division now." Zhou Weiguo laughed, thinking these people are still a bit cute.
"Okay, let's set out together in the afternoon. Do you want to reply to your telegram?"
Zhou Weiguo shook his head, "That's not necessary. I always need to spend two days on the road from Kunming to Dali. Just in time, by the time I arrived, the 200th Division had already left Baoshan. Let the guy carry this pot on his own.
go."
"Hahaha." Dai Anlan seemed to understand Zhou Weiguo's meaning of taking the blame, and found it quite interesting.
…
Baoshan, located in the southwest of Yunnan Province, is connected to Myanmar by mountains and rivers. The national border is 167.78 kilometers long. It is the real border between China and Myanmar.
"It's not far from Dali to Baoshan," Dai Anlan looked at the map. "It's just that the mountain road is difficult to travel. This period is fine. It's considered the dry season here. After a few months, it will be the same in Myanmar.
It’s really difficult to walk during the rainy season.”
Zhou Weiguo nodded, "After arriving in Baoshan, when do you think we can enter Myanmar?"
"Come on, don't call me master, call me senior." Dai Anlan shook his head. Zhou Weiguo was the most powerful division commander, and he was a big one. He had tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, including the navy and air force. Let's go.
If Zhou Weiguo really called him "sir", Dai Anlan would be a little overwhelmed.
Zhou Weiguo had no choice but to nod. If he insisted on shouting, he might make Dai Anlan uncomfortable.
"As for entering Myanmar, we still have to wait and see when the British will let us go." Dai Anlan sighed, looked at the map, and stopped at Yangon.
"If possible, it is best to enter Yangon as soon as possible and help the British defend it." Zhou Weiguo said, "There are too many supplies there, and there are already docks. If the Japanese capture it, it will be no less than a battle for us.
earthquake."
"It's not that bad. The British can always delay it for a few days. These few days are enough time for us to get there." Dai Anlan said, he didn't think that the British would be of no use at all.
"No, you must go early." Zhou Weiguo shook his head, "If you go late, things will be inevitable. Therefore, the top priority is to communicate and negotiate with the British. We need to go there early."
"Okay, I will report this matter to the commander." Dai Anlan nodded, feeling that Zhou Weiguo had come all the way, so he always had to give him this face.
"Senior, this is not a joke." Zhou Weiguo's tone was serious, and his face became serious, "This place is very important! If we can stop the Japanese in Yangon, then we can stop the enemy from outside. As long as we get there, we
The equipment may be better! It won’t let the Japanese get it!”
"Are you so sure that the Japanese will attack Yangon first? Instead of the nearby cities?"
"Senior, there are supplies in Yangon!" Zhou Weiguo was helpless. Many people didn't believe it. The British couldn't even delay the time. But this is the fact. The British are simply unreliable.
Dai Anlan nodded, "Yes, yes! There are supplies! After all, the Japanese want to invade Southeast Asia, that is, for supplies! There is a dock in Yangon, and supplies from Southeast Asia will also be transported to Yangon and then back.
England. Don't worry, brother, I will report this matter to the commander and express its importance."
Zhou Weiguo nodded, not thinking that Dai Anlan's approach would be useful, but what needs to be done must still be done. Yangon must be defended. If it can be defended, then these 100,000 troops will not be fooled by the British. Thinking about it this way
, Zhou Weiguo felt that he had to send a telegram to Jinan and contact Locke.
…
It was 8 o'clock in the morning when Zhou Weiguo arrived at the 200 Division. After talking to Dai Anlan and others for a while, he received a telegram that he was about to leave.
As an officer, Zhou Weiguo was assigned a horse.
The 200th Division has already set off towards Baoshan.
It's more than January in Dali, and it's still as warm as spring. I thought about the soldiers of the special forces, and they should still be in Yunnan at this time. The long border means that the British cannot block all the borders, and the soldiers of the special forces have to enter.
Myanmar is still very simple. Zhou Weiguo is not worried. What is worried is that there will be attrition during the march. The tropical rainforest is not so easy to talk about.
Although Zhou Weiguo had warned Gu Feiyan and others not to enter the tropical rainforest if possible, it would be better not to enter. But when the time comes, who can care about obeying the law? In this era, there are still too many dangers in the tropical rainforest.
.
"Junior Weiguo, look at these great rivers and mountains." Peng Bisheng rushed to catch up with Zhou Weiguo, "How does the scenery here compare to North China?"
"It's more springy here." Zhou Weiguo thought for a while and said with a smile, "It means it's more livable."
"That's right! It's livable!" Peng Bisheng said loudly, "It's a pity that such a livable place has not developed."
Zhou Weiguo nodded, yes, there are too many mountains and the altitude is higher. Development will have to wait at least several decades. "Mountain roads are difficult to travel." Li Bai wrote "The Road to Shu is Difficult". As everyone knows, most places with high mountains and far away rivers
, it’s all difficult to do.”
Peng Bisheng nodded, "The people here are also suffering."
"In today's world, how can people not be miserable?" Dai Anlan rolled her eyes at Peng Bisheng, "What we have to do is to drive out the Tartars and restore China. Only after this can we have great peace!"
Zhou Weiguo didn't know how to answer, "How long will it take for great governance? Wait for the Kuomintang to bring great governance to the people?" He really didn't believe it. "Fellow seniors, Wei Guo has something to say, and I won't be happy if I don't say it."
"Brother, tell me."
"Mr. Sun Yat-sen's Three People's Principles, nation, civil rights, people's livelihood, and even Mr. Sun Yat-sen's new Three People's Principles policy, alliance with Russia, alliance with the Communist Party, support for farmers and workers, can anyone mention it again?" After Zhou Weiguo finished speaking, several people frowned. Several people were stunned.
Having come from that era, how could I not know what Mr. Sun Yat-sen meant at that time? But now, with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party almost at loggerheads, who would mention this matter?
Several people shook their heads, "What do you mean, brother?"
"The party-state has the Three People's Principles but no policy to govern the people." Zhou Weiguo thought for a while and explained, "In addition, given the current situation within the party, do you really think that the party-state can bring a world of great governance to the people?"
