Chapter 1035 The coalition forces retreat!(1/2)
In Bangkok, in the second command center of the coalition command, thick smoke rolled, as if it was on fire. These were a few foreigners smoking and cigars. It was better to have a little bit of pollution from MacArthur's corn pipe.
Alexander used a big cigar and spit it out after just a moment of roaming in his mouth. As a result, the smoke he made alone was as good as seven or eight Americans.
This is seriously inconsistent with their performance and strength on the battlefield. Including the Frenchman who was playing soy sauce, looking at the slender and sweet Vietnamese tobacco leaf rolls, the old Japanese temple frowned helplessly.
He covered his nose with his hand and continued to suppress his silence without any pressure on the smoke that could make him faint.
It's been in this state for a long time.
After the news from Nimitz was confirmed, they gathered together to think about it. But after thinking about it, no one knew how to speak, so they stared at each other with big eyes and dragged them for a while.
It's God, the smoke in the room is so strong that people who pull in the door outside can faint from being choked. It is estimated that the laser-guided bombs cannot find their target...
In the end, Soichi Tekanai couldn't stand it anymore and started to look at it: "I think the Chinese people deliberately asked us to contact the navy, and the purpose was to deliberately identify the intelligence of the ideal combat, so as to hit our morale and determination!"
Do you need to say this? A group of foreign devils stared at him at the same time. General, you can't say any constructive opinions! You are an old military strategist, and you are all high enough in terms of age and military rank. You are so blatant and cute
Not too embarrassed to panic?
The old devil was so thick-skinned that even the demonic sword in Murmatsu could not even cut it open. After saying that, he picked up his hand and pursed his mouth with no expression on his face.
MacArthur was helpless, he had to take the lead. After all, the Navy is the US Navy, and everyone's previous hopes are on them. Now that it has collapsed, someone will always express his opinion.
Knocking the corn pipe, coughing and saying, "Cough cough... We need to further verify the specific news. This will take more time. But General is right, with the Chinese technical means and previous precedents
Look, they do have this intention. But this obviously underestimates our will. It is impossible to easily destroy us and win without fighting."
It would be great if you don’t collapse!
The British and French seemed to have found a life-saving straw. They nodded repeatedly. Just kidding, they can't be choked. The US Army will give up the challenge and it will be impossible to live that day.
MacArthur's spirit was a little better, and his brow raised his voice slightly: "We have accumulated materials and the total amount of weapons and ammunition here. It can support the use of large-scale combat for one year. Now the situation has changed, so we will make half of the calculation,
In addition, the combat mode is changed to strategic defense, focusing on jungle and mountain guerrilla warfare, small-scale raids and harassment operations. In general, it will not be too big of a problem if you can persist in using it for a year. And a year is enough for the navy to rebuild again
Counterattack against the Chinese. So overall, I think the situation is not as bad as I imagined! The key is that we, those of us, must have enough confidence, patience and persistence!”
"I agree with the general!" Teraunuchi Shou immediately agreed, "I can't guarantee that at least the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire have enough confidence to overcome any difficulties and adapt to any environment, especially in the most difficult situations.
Fight under conditions! Even if there is no food supply, our Yamato people are herbivorous people, and this is a tropical jungle, there is no problem at all! Even if there is no ammunition, we still have bayonets, fists and teeth. In short, we will not give up easily
That's it!"
Even though she knew she was supporting him, MacArthur still twitched his cheeks. Damn it was deliberately putting on the pole to make a fuss, right? What kind of herbivorous people? Do you think this is the temperate northern zone, and can vegetables grow in the ground? Don’t look at the fruits in the tropical rainforest,
You have a million troops and one or two hundred million natives to try it? Have no salt for many years? The things in the rainforest are even more likely to poison people!
American soldiers are not you savages. We have only been hungry for a few days since we were young. Unlike you Japanese monkeys, we have never been full. If we are so easy to serve, American soldiers have already swept the world.
The British really can't say a good word. Lord Alexander cried to death, how could he have such a group of allies! The lives of our British young men are even more precious, and they can't afford to lose one, each one
Is it too much for the two of you to say such unscrupulous words? Om?!
The French...well, no one cares about their opinions, it is useless to say it.
But at least, the opinions were barely unified, and no one proposed to withdraw the stall and disband. This is a huge progress. Compared to the previous scene of mutual pitfalls, it is really not a false statement to see heroes in times of adversity.
Of course, no one here is fool. Who doesn’t know that the more critical the moment comes, the more you have to hold a group to keep warm? Besides, no one of them has a place to go!
Lord Alexander felt aggrieved for a long time and finally proposed: "My opinion is to concentrate all our strength and eliminate Impal's enemy troops as much as possible and retake them there. In this way, we can ensure that our supply route is not completely interrupted.
.And it can also attack the enemy's offensive initiative and open up a roundabout space for the overall strategy."
To put it... it is very tactful. In fact, what he meant was that it was the last base of the British, with a large amount of material supplies, and it was even more a retreat. If you seize it, they could escape into India even if they didn't have to do so.
They struggled together in the big pit.
Who can't see it?
MacArthur first disagrees: "I think we should do a good job now, to prevent the Chinese from landing and siegeing from Bangkok and Yangon! After all, Myanmar and Thailand are our security guarantees! Even if we give up Vietnam for the time being, we are here.
Don’t forget that the Chinese cannot fight a protracted war! With these two places in hand, we can move forward and back freely!"
"What should I do if Na Yinpaul? We have already concentrated more than 100,000 troops there and spent countless efforts. We are about to succeed. It's a pity to give up like this, right?"
The old British Lord immediately became anxious.
"Success?" Old Guizi Nai Shouchi sneered, "To be honest, our officers think that hope is not very big. It is obviously a trap for the Chinese to attract the overall force. I dare to assert that there are air corridor supplies, and the ground
Once the passage is opened, the Chinese Army will continue to replenish the energy source without us knowing it. It is impossible for only 10,000 or 20,000 people there, or even 70,000 to 80,000! Our previous information is very clear, they are in Yunnan.
In the west, there are a total of 300,000 troops. Is it just a decoration?"
Lord Alexander choked. He actually knew this situation very well!
If it seemed like a normal battlefield at first, after a while of trouble, Impal could almost have surrounded Impal after several consecutive increases. And the remnants led by Major General Slim were also attacked in the north.
The frontal defense has no intention of loosening. No matter how many coalition forces sent, they always catch it just right. This is no longer something that strategies and tactics can determine, it is basically...it is intentional!
But why do he have to fight for it! There is only a little value in Britain's existence. If you don't work hard, how can you play the rest?
MacArthur sighed: "Don't fight anymore! Just decide like this! As long as we keep Mandalay firmly, with Ren'anqiang's oil and Thai food, we can still hold on. These two places are the key!
If you should give up the rest, give up!”
"What about Vietnam? There are various minerals, a rich population, and a large amount of food and oil! Do you care?"
The Frenchman finally got anxious. This is the rhythm of shrinking! Did they sell it directly? When can this tradition of selling teammates be changed?
The three old Japanese men looked at him with the idiot's eyes. Don't you understand the lice on the monk's head? Someone will always make sacrifices?
The old man from Sakachi Nakazumi said with a very cautious expression: "Don't worry! Our 25th Army is still fighting and will not easily be occupied by the Chinese! Your army and the Vietnamese militia will still be in the future.
It plays a crucial role in the jungle war! It is the forward base for counterattacking China. How can we give up at will? No matter what, we have 100,000 men who died there!"
This sincere love was touched for a moment. Well, they were actually too naive and enthusiastic, and forgot that the great powers who engage in politics could completely get rid of their moral integrity like snot.
Then... there was nothing to say, there was nothing to say, and everyone had to go back to find a place where no one was, relax, gritted their teeth and blood, and ate the helpless bitter fruit.
Time is urgent, and they don't have time to waste more nonsense. They are still besieging the fighting troops on the Impal front line and retreat immediately to Mandalay. In any case, they should help the defenders there watch this crucial transportation center and prevent
The battle situation has deteriorated unexpectedly.
British Major General Scott almost fainted when he heard the news. He worked hard for half a month, invested so many troops, causing such large casualties, and said he would not do it. Who is the mother
I came up with an idea, this is so scammed!
No matter how he begged, all the above denied it. No reckless and enterprising opinions were adopted. There was only one core opinion, maintain the strength and strategic retreat! Impal, I can't continue to fight!
When it comes to escape, the British are the first-class. I don’t know when they lost the sign of the world’s most powerful country so thoroughly. Scott gave the order, and the British troops under his command were rushing to the top.
It scattered in a hurry! It ran faster than those colonial and Indian troops!
You know, they have a large number of trucks and cars in their hands, and there are many people who can drive. They are very unconventional. They left their restrained colonial army and ran away. When the Southeast Asian soldiers and Indians reacted, they suddenly became angry.
I found that there was no foreign master around me! I was stunned!
Of course, the Americans were not slow either. They were not the main force, and they were the first to get news. When they found something was wrong, they stepped back and quit, almost evacuating the British.
However, the Japanese invested more than one brigade, with 10,000 people, and the number of casualties on the battlefield was less than 2,000. They were very experienced, all of them were veterans, and they were mixed in several teams, and their goals were not the most obvious.
.
At this time, we can see that the foundation is good and bad. Although the Japanese have few cars, they have two legs straight! And there are many horses, so they naturally turn to the combat mode of the "Horse-Purchase Division".
The mules, donkeys, horses, elephants, goats and even monkeys that can be found, bringing as many supplies and ammunition as possible on the front line, and then scattering and scattering back!
After years of fighting with the Chinese, they have summarized their experience. In such tropical jungle mountains, the bigger the target, the faster the death. When the plane bombs, they will find a conspicuous target to drop bombs!
Small-scale transfers take up all the small fast spirits. Even if you survive, it is easier. Anyway, you just need to return to the assembly place in the end.
There is a reason why they chose so many four-legged things to pull things. They can kill them halfway as food supplies! Just monkeys, don’t they have a monkey brain to eat? If you are too impatient, you will be polite if you don’t eat people.
.
How could this matter be said to be unreliable? Sometimes the Japanese are stubborn and the real god are funny. Just like Soichi Tezuka thinks they can eat grass to survive. Damn it really thinks he is a goat!
At the beginning, nothing could be seen. Halfway through the way, the Chinese army opposite found something was wrong, and air reconnaissance and attacks immediately followed!
Groups of attack aircraft were scattered and sweeping from high altitudes. When they saw a large number of enemies, they threw bombs and bombed them. They didn't care about ammunition at all, but they were not happy that they brought too few.
No matter how careful the Japanese were, they were slow to carry the elephant, and their target was huge. They called a large group of bombers and the bombs came down. As soon as the bomb sounded, it became lively!
There are not even one hundred of the truly trained war horses, and the remaining animals are generally timid. Especially sheep and monkeys, there is no taming at all. In a shock, they immediately jumped around and scattered all over the mountains and fields!
In desperation, the soldiers could kill them in advance with guns to ensure some food. But elephants and donkeys are big and have a big temper. When they run, they are like small tanks and can't stop them.
By the way, their target was exposed, causing more plane bombing and attacks, and this chain reaction was a big deal!
So, a large amount of ammunition and medicine were carried away by the livestock. The Japanese army was so hot that they carried a few of them. They thought they were smart and prepared for a long time, but in the end they could use them very few, so they walked out of Impal
The battlefield is hundreds of miles away from Mandalay, all of which are difficult to walk on. There is no good road in the curve. I dare not walk on the main road. The road is full of dangers. The road is full of primitive jungles!
What awaits more than 10,000 Japanese troops will be an unforgettable journey of death.
On the front of the Impal battlefield, more than 70,000 indigenous soldiers, and the Indian soldiers lost their minds and immediately rebelled! They were not making a mutiny, but they both put down their weapons and surrendered and stopped fighting!
So, a platoon reconnaissance unit who came to investigate the situation quietly and was ready to figure out the situation and then reported it to the top. He was shocked to meet Yin Dubing, a regiment of the regiment. The three and the others discussed with them very seriously about the surrender for a long time.
They agreed and instructed the gathering point to ensure that they would become prisoners. They happily packed up their weapons and lined up to receive them...
Damn what's going on?!
When Chinese officers heard the news, they were shocked. Is this okay?
To be continued...
