My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 423 The head of state is ready to "disband"?
After saying this, Sun Liren looked at Liao Mingyu inadvertently, and the latter narrowed his eyes dangerously, because that was where the 88th Army was stationed.

As early as two months ago, the 54th Division of the Japanese Army wanted to get through Lashio, which was occupied by the Third Division, and rush to help Myitkyina. All the old brothers will drink and hate this.

In order to block this hole and prevent the little devils from the north from coming, Liao Mingyu did not hesitate to send the 200th division and two artillery battalions there. Together with Ah Yi's combat engineer regiment, Lashio assembled a team of 2 people.

The 54th Division of the Japanese Army was also staring at each other. The two sides had fought countless battles in the past two months.

But the Japanese didn't know that Liao Mingyu asked Long Wenwen to do it on purpose, because at that time, the battle in Myitkyina was imminent, and the other battlefields had to be put aside first, otherwise they would directly concentrate their forces for a wave of land and air coordination. The devil's dissatisfied division is really not enough to fill his teeth.

However, the current situation has undergone earth-shaking changes. The Battle of Myitkyina is over, and the remnants of the Japanese army have retreated in an all-round way. The little devil is afraid that the expeditionary force will take advantage of the situation to go south and directly push Mandalay, the important town of Myanmar, so immediately assembled three divisions to go north. Gather up the remnants and re-establish the defense line south of Lashio.

If you look at the map, Xibu, Mengya and Lashio are basically on the same line from west to east, but Lashio is in the middle and further north, and the other two places hold it in the middle like a pair of pliers. If Long Wenwen's position is still relatively dangerous.

After all, a battle of more than 10 people has just ended, not to mention the expeditionary army and the Indian army, even Liao Mingyu, a tech guy, has to take a breather, right?Even if the soldiers are not too tired, the logistics supplies have to be re-deployed, so how can they fight as soon as they say it.

The Japanese army also looked at this reason, and wanted to bite their teeth and kill the carbine. At least the recapture of Lashio would also make the enemy less of a bridgehead.

Now the third division as a whole is adopting the policy of elite and heavy firepower, and its approach is getting closer to American routines, and the troops are also more and more dependent on logistics. Otherwise, how to form overwhelming firepower and various tactical coordination will all be spent on money.

……

"At present, the 38th and 112th regiments of our new 113th Division have already rushed to Mengya first, and are preparing to cooperate with the brothers of the 88th Army to defend the Lashio area. This is basically the situation, General Stilwell?"

Sun Liren carried the instructor's stick behind his back, stood in a standard straddle posture, and looked at Stilwell quietly.

"Gentlemen, I propose to continue the offensive. The Chinese side will send more troops to join the battlefield, cooperate with the Allied Forces to advance to central Burma with superior forces, capture Mandalay and counterattack Ren'anqiang, and drive the Japanese to the Indian Ocean to feed the fish!"

Stilwell took over the conversation, and enthusiastically proposed a counterattack plan. The failure of the first Burmese battle had always been brooding in his heart, and the opportunity to wash away his shame finally came. How could he not firmly grasp it?
Occupying Burma will not only be a shame, but also allow the US military to obtain a logistics base in Southeast Asia, which will play an excellent role in restraining the Pacific battlefield. Even the navy and air force can directly threaten the Japanese mainland, let alone the British army. This was originally their colony, and it was better to get it back as soon as possible.

"So, gentlemen? What do you think of the current situation?"

Facing Stilwell's question, everyone started some discussions in whispers, but no one stood up to speak for a long time.

Huaxia people have a bad habit, that is, to rank seniority based on seniority, to make progress step by step, and to care too much about order.

Although most of them are commanders at the army and division level, there are also group army commanders and even commander-in-chief sitting next to them. The chief did not say how he could steal the limelight first.

So the division commanders present looked at the army commander, and the army commander looked at the two army commanders, and finally all eyes were on Wei Lihuang alone.

Wei Lihuang turned his head and pretended he didn't see it, can my words work now?Can't you see a military and political minister sitting next to him?I need to find him.

He could tell that Chen Cheng had been assigned to the west of Yunnan again, and his position as the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force was probably coming to an end.

Lao Jiang is like this, as long as it is not his direct descendants, they basically maintain the principle of throwing away when they are used up.

"General Stilwell, I deeply admire your courage, but regarding the next transfer of troops... our head of state has other arrangements."

At this time, Chen Cheng stepped forward and replied with a half-smile.

"What!? What does he want to do? Is he going to overstep his authority and order blindly?"

Stilwell was furious. When the first expeditionary force entered Burma, if it hadn't been for that "peanut" who made a fuss from the air, 10 people would not have been crushed into the Savage Mountain by little devils.

However, his nominal commander-in-chief was completely emptied, causing no regiment to be in command on the battlefield. Facing the rotten battle situation in the later period, Stilwell let go and ran back to India in a fit of anger, so this is also why he heard that The reason why Lao Jiang ordered the bombing.

If Sun Liren had not followed him to India at that time, but had chosen to obey the order to enter Savage Mountain, perhaps there would be no such thing as the army stationed in India today.

"First of all, from a strategic point of view, the situation in northern Myanmar has been opened up, and the international aid communication line has basically been opened up. This huge victory is worthy of recognition, but at the same time, the price paid is quite high!"

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately resonated with most of the officers present, and everyone began to talk about it.

Take the Western Yunnan Expeditionary Force as an example. Although the Japanese were driven out of China, the casualties of the two armies reached more than 4.

Chen Cheng smiled indistinctly. Now the reaction of the officers made him feel that he had lost some face, so he continued to speak:
"Moreover, our army has already invested too much manpower and material resources in western Yunnan, completely exceeding the original expectations. Now that the front in Guangxi is tight, the head of state still wants to give priority to the domestic side."

Stilwell frowned. Could it be that Peanut is going to "withdraw capital and shares", and asked in a bad tone: "You Chinese people like to go around, so just explain exactly what you mean!"

Chen Cheng nodded, took out a document from his briefcase, and read calmly: "According to the joint discussion of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the National Committee, it has been decided to recall all troops in western Yunnan, including the troops stationed in India. The Army Command of the Huaxia Theater is regrouping to face the next domestic battle."

"The 1th Army will be transferred to the Fourth Theater to cooperate in operations, the 6th Army will be transferred to the Ninth Theater, the New 88st Army, the New 5th Army, and the New [-]th Army will be moved to Kunming for reorganization, and the [-]th Army's mechanized units will be reorganized."

Liao Mingyu's face changed drastically, and he was transferred back to Kunming?Nima!Isn't this the end of the calf! ?
