In order to eliminate the Japanese army entrenched in southern Myanmar at the lowest cost as soon as possible, the anti-Japanese and rescue forces could not allow the Japanese army to shrink their troops and gather together. In that case, the anti-Japanese and rescue forces could continuously eliminate the Japanese army with their superior forces.
"Don't worry, we are not far from Dongxu. After taking Dongxu, we will immediately go south to Bogu and attack Bogu before the Japanese troops complete the assembly. Or fight a siege and aid the Japanese army's main forces around Bogu, and establish the victory of the Battle of Southern Myanmar." Qin Shou seemed very confident.
Although the Japanese army had realized the mistake they made, it was too late. The anti-Japanese rescue ** had seized the opportunity. It was almost useless to make any moves in the Japanese army.
"Yes, the commander of the army." Sun Changwu nodded, agreeing with Qin Shou's view.
It takes at least ten days for the Japanese troops west of the Bogu Mountains to gather in Bogu. This period of time is enough to do a lot of things for the anti-Japanese and rescue of **. If it goes well, it can also be solved. In that case, even if the Japanese army draws troops from other war zones to the battlefield in Myanmar, it will be too late. Anti-Japanese and rescue of ** will truly control the entire Myanmar and become the master here.
The anti-Japanese rescue team ignored the Japanese army's beginning to shrink their defense line. They continued to go south and placed their targets on Dongyu and the 29th Brigade of the Independent Japanese Army stationed there.
On the afternoon of October 4, the anti-Japanese rescue team arrived in the outskirts of Dongyu. Compared to Naipido, Dongyu was just a small town. However, even so, Dongyu is also a strategic location. It is located on the west bank of the Xidang River, 320 kilometers from Mandalay to the north and 250 kilometers from Yangon to the south. When the Expeditionary Force entered Myanmar to fight, it was once the place where the 200th Division of the Expeditionary Force and the 55th Division of the Japanese Army fought bloody battles, and it was also a battle fought by the Expeditionary Force after entering Myanmar. (Tongyu also translated as Tonggu)
Qin Shou and a group of senior generals who fought against Japan and rescued ** were not unfamiliar with this place. Of course, they were just the supplementary regiment of the 200th Division at the time and did not participate in the bloody battle here. After the British retreated, the 200th Division also moved from here. The supplementary regiment naturally retreated north with the 200th Division.
However, perhaps no one expected that they would return here again just a few months later. And they had changed their identities. Now, they are the attacking side, and Japan himself has become the defense side.
"Report to the commander of the army, the vanguard of the reconnaissance brigade, has taken down Keyonggang Airport." Zhang Erniu reported to Qin Shou.
"Very good, are the airport runways and other facilities complete?" Qin Shou asked.
Keyonggang Airport was one of the many airports built by the British army in Myanmar. However, many airports were destroyed in the fight against the Japanese attack. Now there are extremely few airports available. Before the field airport in Mandalay was repaired, if the Anti-Japanese Rescue ** can obtain an airport in southern Myanmar, it will be very beneficial for the subsequent battle of the Anti-Japanese Rescue **.
"Commander, the runway at the airport has been blown up. We are organizing personnel to repair it. Other facilities are basically complete. Of course, due to the small airport, it is unlikely that the heavy bomber will be able to take off."
Qin Shou nodded: "Let the engineers repair the airport as soon as possible, and then find a way to expand the airport. In the future, this will become a major airport for the aviation team."
Touo is very close to Thailand. If the anti-Japanese and rescue efforts are to march towards Thailand in the future, the deployment of the air fleet's aircraft here will undoubtedly provide a lot of convenience for the fight for air supremacy. In addition, Touo is not far from the coast. If dive bombers and torpedo attack aircraft can be obtained from the Americans, it can also drive out the threat from the Japanese navy and ensure the safety of the coastline. In this way, the American transport ships can directly send the military supplies needed for the anti-Japanese and rescue efforts to Myanmar.
"Yes, commander." Zhang Erniu nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.
Afterwards, Qin Shou summoned the officers of the generals who fought against Japan and rescued the **. All officers at the regiment level and above arrived.
"Brothers, we have arrived in Dongxu. A few months ago, when we were part of the Expeditionary Force, our 200th Division also fought here. And, at that time, we had withstood the attack of the 55th Division of the Japanese army with a disadvantageous force, causing huge casualties to them and making us famous." Qin Shou said to everyone.
Although, now the Anti-Japanese Rescue is no longer a member of the Expeditionary Force. Even because of their rise, the Americans no longer require the National Army to send the Expeditionary Force into Myanmar to fight. Therefore, the mission of the Expeditionary Force has been completed and was disbanded early by Shancheng.
However, Qin Shou still admired the achievements made by the Expeditionary Force at that time.
Many generals and senior officers who are fighting against Japan and rescuing ** are all from the supplementary regiment of the 200th Division of the Expeditionary Force. Everyone has a deep feeling about the places they have fought before.
After looking at everyone, Qin Shou continued, "At the beginning, the British were frightened by the Japanese and fled in a panic. Although the 200th Division of the Expeditionary Force successfully resisted the Japanese and his attack, they had to retreat in the end. But now, everything is different. We are fighting back. Moreover, we fight back in the posture of a conqueror. No matter Japan and anyone else, they cannot resist our attack. We will win Dongxu and continue our previous victory. Do you have confidence in this?"
"Yes!" Everyone replied loudly.
"The commander, in Dongyu City, there is only one independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army. It will be very easy to solve them." Chen Dehai, commander of the 3rd Infantry Division, seemed very relaxed.
Before, they had solved a division of the Japanese army in Naipido within two days. Therefore, naturally, everyone did not take a separate Japanese army into consideration.
Qin Shou nodded: "From now on, before tomorrow morning, we will take down Dongxu. The Japanese independent 29th Brigade stationed here must be completely wiped out. I believe everyone will be able to do it."
"Yes, commander." All the generals and officers replied.
Before the formal attack on Dongxu, according to the old rules, it was still a long-term preparation for firepower. The anti-Japanese rescue ** has fallen in love with the benefits of powerful firepower. Relying on powerful firepower, they can damage the enemy as much as possible, weaken their strength, and create the greatest convenience for the next attack. (To be continued.)
