"Bastard!"
"Is the Sun Never Sets a line of defense made of paper?”
"The Japanese took Siam less than a month ago, and they only sent out two divisions to destroy the southern port that was heavily guarded by the British.”
"Even if 10,000 pigs are placed at the front line, they can still stall the Japanese for a few days.”
As soon as he returned to the war room, Du Yuming couldn't help but roar.
Since January, the British army had sent people to Yudu to coordinate the battle. It was already November, and they were still coordinating.
However, what did the people of Sun Never Sets do? They threw away the mawlcotton and earthen tiles in a day. It was simply ridiculous.
The Wei Mountain between Siam and Myanmar was Mount Pilauk. Mount Pilauk, Mount Laibe, Mount Benong, and Mount Tanientaweng in the north formed a huge mountain range that ran from north to south. It was like a natural moat that made it difficult for the two countries to cross.
The Pilaur Mountains extended all the way to the northern part of the Khra Isthmus on the Malay Peninsula.
If the Japanese wanted to attack Myanmar, they first had to go south along Mount Pilao, then pass through the flat Kela Isthmus, go around to the other side of Mount Pilao, and then go north.
Dawa and Moulmein were the only two important port cities of Myanmar in the Kra Isthmus, and they were also the strategic pivot of the British army.
Now that they had lost these two cities, Myanmar had no cover for the Japanese army.
Especially the terrain of Myanmar, which was high in the north and low in the south. It had a horseshoe-shaped structure. The east, north, and west were all high mountains and plateaus, and the center was a plain.
From the north to the south, the Japanese army only needed to push all the way, and the entire south was defenseless.
The expeditionary force had already lost half of their strategic depth before they even entered Myanmar. Anyone would be cursing.
"Hutton, the commander of the British forces in Myanmar, believes that even if we throw the entire Myanmar to the Japanese, they can still get it back in the talks.”
"But if you leave it to us, it's like beating a dog with a meat bun.”
"Smith, the then Governor of Myanmar, had an Indian Master and a Myanmar National Master, but he didn't dare to use the natural barrier to stop the Japanese.”
"The Empire of the Sun Never Sets is just like this. What Dunkirk retreat?”
Gan Lichu, the commander of the 6th division, said unhappily.
There were many troops that had retreated on the battlefield of Yan and Huang, but for the British, whose equipment was far superior to the Japanese, to escape was simply ridiculous!
"Deputy Commander-in-Chief."
"The Military Department sent a staff officer to Moulmein to inform us.”
"The colonel of the 200th division, Han Shaogong, violated the order to block the Japanese army with the advance party of the Yunnan army.”
At this moment, a lieutenant colonel staff officer stepped forward and said.
Swoosh!
The expressions of the expeditionary officers changed slightly.
Recently, Long Yun, Liu Xiang, and Liu Zhihui, the three governors of the Southwest, had jointly established the Southwest Bank to issue Yanhuang Coins. They had banished the " legal currency " issued by the national government from the Southwest region. The three families had already sought revenge from Bald Man, who was furious.
At the same time, Long Yun had expelled the military police of the national team that had been stationed in Spring City. The conflict between the two sides was obvious.
Because of the war, Lu Han's 60th army had returned to Dian Province to guard the south of the country. They were still building a few Yunnan garrison brigades. Bald Man didn't dare to attack Long Yun. He was furious.
"Send an order to the entire army that such incidents must be severely punished.”
"Take away Han Shaogong's position as regiment commander.”
Du Yuming, the deputy commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force and commander of the Fifth Army, ordered in a deep voice.
Everyone present looked up at him in unison. He was stripped of his position but not his military rank. This was a big stick raised high and lowered. It was obvious that Du Yuming was protecting his old subordinate.
"Yes."
The staff officer of the 5th army immediately turned around and passed down the order.
That afternoon, the news was sent from the 5th Army to the 200th Division.
.....
At the same time.
Under Tang Jie's leadership, the advance party's security company had successfully sent the group of Chinese children to Mei Miao. They had also drawn the terrain of Mei Miao and rushed back to the country.
"Old Han."
"The battle between the Japanese and the American army is coming soon.”
"Once Japan and the United States start a war, we will have a showdown with the Japanese, and the British army will have a showdown with the Japanese.”
"Forgive me for being blunt, but the people of Sun Never Sets will definitely choose to give up on Myanmar. Both the baldy and the US military are dreaming.”
"The expeditionary army will end up with a vigorous expedition abroad and return home with heavy losses in the end.”
"If it really comes to that, the advance party welcomes you to join at any time.”
Tang Jie looked at Han Shaogong and said meaningfully.
In these ten days of conversation, their understanding of each other had increased a lot. Han Shaogong's various insights undoubtedly proved that he was a rare talent, which made Tang Jie somewhat unwilling to let go.
"This…"
"Brother Tang, the expeditionary army entering Myanmar is the request of the alliance army. The British army…"
Hearing this, Han Shaogong hesitated.
"Puchi."
"Alliance?" Tang Jie laughed out loud. The alliance army is bullshit."
"Even now, the United States is still providing scrap steel to the Japanese. Those are all strategic resources.”
"In the middle of last year, the British army closed the Yunnan-Myanmar passage under the pressure of the Japanese. It has only been a year, and you have already forgotten?”
"The White Paper has always been one who doesn't get up early without benefits. They don't care about what happens to us. They only care about how much benefits they can get from it.”
"I have received definite news that the defeat of the British army in Moulmein has angered the country. Alexander will take over the battle."
"Oh right, Alexander is the British general who commanded the retreat of Dunkirk.”
What was that?
Han Shaogong's eyes widened.
Ever since the evacuation of Dunkirk, the Western media had been promoting him as one of the greatest commanders of the British army.
Harold The picture of Alexander munching on an apple on the beach appeared on the headlines of the global media. If such a person commanded the British army in Myanmar, what else could the British army do? A perfect copy of the Eastern version of Dunkirk's retreat?
"Let's put it this way. The British only want to use the expeditionary force to cover their safe retreat. They don't want to fight alongside the Japanese, let alone protect Myanmar.”
"Losing Myanmar is just a small interlude for Sun Never Sets. The only thing that Sun Never Sets can't accept is India.”
Tang Jie added.
The original history sufficiently proved that this was what the British army did.
Out of the 100,000 soldiers of the national expeditionary force, the best of the best had entered Myanmar and fought a fierce battle. As a result, the British army had retreated, causing the war to collapse. More than 60,000 soldiers of the expeditionary force had died, and the remaining troops had barely retreated into India and China. Many people had also died in the Savage Mountain. How tragic!
The 200th division, the most elite mechanized infantry division in Yan Huang, had lost their commander, Dai Anlan, during the expedition.
"Hu…"
Han Shaogong let out a long breath, unable to calm down.
This piece of information was too much for him.
Tang Jie didn't say much. This was just a foreshadowing for Han Shaogong. The 200 divisions had been stationed in Baoshan as the vanguard of the expeditionary army. Baoshan was not far from Chanda. If both sides wanted to communicate, there were still many opportunities.
The entire Myanmar was as big as Dian Province, and the roads were very smooth. It took less than half a month for the guards to return to the country. Tang Jie gave a jeep to Han Shaogong and led his men back to Chan Da.
It was almost time. The surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was about to begin, and the entire Pacific War was about to erupt. The advance party was ready to move into Myanmar at any time.
