"Your Excellency, Commander, the 33rd Division has captured Lashio."
"Yoshi! Very good! In this case, only Ping Manna will be left!"
"Hi!"
"Then, the war in Myanmar will end soon!"
"Hi!"
"Let the 33rd Division, 18th Division, and 56th Division be repaired and fully prepared to capture Mandalay!"
"Hi!"
Watching the soldiers go out, the Japanese commander narrowed his eyes with satisfaction. In Myanmar, he enjoyed the thrill of victory, unlike in China, where the obstacles were huge and the strength of the independent division had to be taken into consideration.
Thinking of the Independent Division, the Japanese commander smiled, "Some things are just a temporary thing. Do you really think we will let it go?"
…
At the expeditionary force headquarters, Stilwell was still hesitating.
The situation of the expeditionary force has become clear. If they do not save it, China may not send troops to help them in the future. You must know that besides Burma, Britain also has India!
However, even if he gives the order, the British army may not send troops. Moreover, even if the British army sends troops, it may not be useful. It is simply a waste of time.
But even so, the order that should be given must still be given.
Within the headquarters, many Chinese generals have already left, because they all know that the enemy's target should be Mandalay now, not the remnants of the expeditionary force, so the expeditionary force has a chance to come back, as long as the expeditionary force is not allowed to stand by to rescue Mandalay.
Just do it.
Zhou Weiguo had already ordered the special forces soldiers to return to Kunming to assemble. The war in Burma should be almost over. After Mandalay fell into the hands of the Japanese, the British army retreated.
…
Japan, Tokyo.
"Your Majesty, there is good news coming from the Burma battlefield." Tojo Hideki stood in front of Emperor Showa.
"oh?"
"The warriors captured Lashio, which directly cut off the return route of the Chinese soldiers. Moreover, the imperial armies of Lashio and Pinmanna can jointly approach Mandalay."
"Yoshi! Very good! In this way, the empire's progress in Greater East Asia will be further advanced."
"Hi!"
"The process of Greater East Asia!" Emperor Showa narrowed his eyes, as if he was missing something, "China, only Sun Wen has such a vision. I still remember his proposal of Greater Asia and advocated that China and Japan unite to resist.
Europe and the United States, but he is dead after all. His successors will not have the same vision as Sun Wen."
"Hi!"
"It's such a pity, but now, the empire is about to achieve this goal with just one country!"
"What Your Majesty said is that once the Burmese battlefield is over, I feel that maybe I can free up my hands to deal with China's independent division." Tojo narrowed his eyes.
"Oh? Does the military have any plans?"
"Hi! The empire's recent recruitment in Southeast Asia has gone very smoothly, very smoothly!" Hideki Tojo smiled, "In this way, the empire will no longer need to send troops south. These soldiers are already adapted to the local climate conditions.
, with a little training, you can open up territory for the empire!"
"real?"
"Hi!" Tojo Hideki nodded, "As for the independent divisions, they can be dealt with in the same way. Chen Gongbo's government still has hundreds of thousands of troops in its hands. Among them, at least 100,000 troops are carefully trained by the empire and are willing to immigrate their families.
Those who go to the empire and work hard for the empire.”
"Yoshi!" Emperor Showa clenched his hands.
"I originally wanted to move this group of troops south, but they were stopped by the Navy of the Independent Division. Now that the empire's war in Southeast Asia is almost over, we can let the warriors from North China start to take action against the Independent Division. At the same time, we can
United with the Chinese people." Tojo Hideki said seriously.
Emperor Showa narrowed his eyes, "What clever trick does Tojo-kun have?"
"Your Majesty, Zhou Weiguo has openly joined the Chinese Communist Party. In the eyes of the Kuomintang, this is betrayal and heresy. Although Zhou Weiguo is currently at the expeditionary force headquarters, judging from the fact that he is only a combat consultant, Chiang is on guard against him. He can be dispatched
One person can lobby the top brass of the national army and ask them not to take action at that time. Of course, they can take action if they want to. After all, the Independent Division is very wealthy! According to the information from the Special High School Course, for more than a year, the Independent Division has been selling continuously
All kinds of medicines, guns, and high incomes. At the same time, schools and factories were built in Shandong, and even the Chinese people in Shandong became rich." Tojo Hideki continued, "In just over a year, Shandong actually became rich.
Having achieved this, I have to say that they have very good internal affairs talents.”
Emperor Showa nodded, "Yes, if we can get Shandong's resources, the people of the empire will be much better off."
"Hi! Therefore, I believe that we must first send someone to lobby with the National Army to set the tone. The National Army will not let go of the opportunity that can weaken the Communist Army."
"Yoshi, you go and do this!"
"Hi!"
There are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in the world. But between countries, interests come first.
…
Shandong
Liu Yuan was processing the documents. The situation on the Myanmar battlefield made him very anxious. The previous battle losses of Zhu Ziming's aviation regiment had also been reported, with the loss of more than 60 fighter planes and more than ten pilots. For the independent division,
It is also a big loss. However, fortunately, the independent division has been cultivating new recruits during these times, and the personnel can keep up. It has also been training the soldiers vigorously, otherwise, the soldiers will complain a lot.
Looking at the documents in his hand, Liu Yuan sighed. The situation on the battlefield in Myanmar surprised him. The main reason was that the British were really unreliable.
"What's wrong?" Li Weimin looked at Liu Yuan, "It's so good, why are you sighing?"
"I'm thinking about Myanmar."
Li Weimin was silent for a moment, "Don't worry, Wei will come back safely."
"Yeah." Liu Yuan nodded, and then shook his head, "The war in Burma will probably be over in about a month. By then, the Japanese will attack India."
"What does it have to do with us? They are all colonies of the British." Li Weimin shook his head. "If it hadn't been for the British colonization for hundreds of years, the war in Burma would not have ended like this."
"There is no way around this. Even we are still semi-colonial." Liu Yuan sighed, "But soon, we will be able to restore our sovereignty!"
"Okay, stop sighing and deal with it quickly, it's getting dark!"
"You." Liu Yuan had no choice but to lower his head and continue to deal with documents. As Shandong develops more and more, he has more and more things to deal with. Sometimes, he is simply too busy. But
He was very busy and occasionally went out for a walk. Seeing the satisfaction on the faces of the people, Liu Yuan felt that everything he did was worth it.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Telegram from the Master's seat!"
"read."
"The situation on the battlefield in Myanmar may not be able to be reversed. After the special forces soldiers return to the team, I will send a message to the Air Force. During this period, all units in the independent division must be cautious."
