All gods, the lord who started with the bright sword

The survey team set off from Ruili in less than half an hour.

The roar of artillery fire from the rear was faintly visible.

Lacking convenient means of communication, Hiroshi Takeuchi had no choice but to send his men back to find out what happened.

The results were quite surprising.

A lieutenant officer brought back spoke incoherently and couldn't speak clearly at all.

All I know is that their troops were bombarded suddenly, and the artillery fire took away a lot of lives, and then they were attacked by tanks, and they were all scattered.

A staff officer grabbed his collar and yelled: "Fire, what kind of fire, you made it clear!"

"Ghost cannon, it's a ghost cannon!"

The lieutenant replied tremblingly, recalling that moment still dominated by fear.

The enemy's name immediately came to everyone's mind: Sichuan Army? !

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"The Sichuan Army Corps is still in Mandalay in the morning, more than 600 miles away, can they fly over?"

The staff officers were totally unwilling to believe it, it was beyond their imagination.

Could it be that the intelligence agencies are all blind, deceived by the enemy?

Takeuchi Kumana sank like water and said nothing, no one was more annoyed than him.

No matter how the enemy came, whether they deceived the eyes and ears of the imperial army, or came by airborne, it has already happened.

Ruili has fallen, and the enemy's next step must be Tengchong.

He also planned to ambush the enemy, imagining the triumphant victory, but this time he was tricked by the enemy, and he even stole his home before he found out.

Ridiculous, ridiculous!
Kan Takeuchi looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling that he was such a fool.

There was not much time left for him, Hiroshi Takeuchi returned to the car: "Drive, continue to walk south to the station of the Fifth Brigade, we must immediately pass this information to Tengchong."

There are also less experienced staff officers who have not responded: "Shouldn't they rush north to Tengchong?"

Hiroshi Takeuchi was in a bad mood, and his words were much harsher than usual: "Stupid, Ruili has already fallen, and it will take time to make a detour. By the time we go back to Tengchong, there may already be a fight."

Worse still he hadn't said.

Based on the enemy's attack speed, Tengchong's division headquarters and defenders total 5000 people, and it won't last long.

Even if they rush back, it won't help the matter, at most it will add a few points to the enemy's record.

Let us know as soon as possible, how much can be withdrawn, how much can be withdrawn.

In fact, no matter how fast the Sichuan army attacked, the Japanese telegraph department in Ruili City still had enough time to report the attack.

The division headquarters in Tengchong received the telegram and thought it was a joke.

They also felt that the enemy had just set off from Mandalay, and it was impossible to arrive so quickly anyway.

Sending an inquiry again and receiving a positive farewell telegram, the Japanese army paid attention to it.

The chief of staff of the division who stayed in command immediately did two things, closed the city gates, put the whole city on combat readiness, and guarded against the enemy's sudden attack.

The fall of Ruili City is a lesson for the past, and they must learn from it.

Then use a high-power radio to send this information to the headquarters of the [-]th Army, a higher-level department, requesting tactical guidance.

Vernacular: "Our division can't figure it out, please help us figure out a solution."

Ren Mutaguchi also received the telegram at the staff office. He was listening to the Northern Expedition plan given by the staff. To be honest, he was not very satisfied.

Due to the limitations of their own conditions, their speed of the Northern Expedition could not be fast.

But there is no other good way, only to make do with it.

The bad news from Tengchong, after being recited by his subordinates, made the entire staff office instantly quiet.

Mutaguchi Ren, who came back to his senses, also said three impossible words: "They must be joking, right? This is false information, it must be false information!"

Anyway, he was determined not to admit it.

I would rather believe that the information given by the subordinate departments is false, but also deceive myself.

A staff officer suddenly said: "If you don't want to send another telegram to ask, they are understandably anxious, and they said that the supplies promised to them are already being loaded on the plane and will be shipped to them soon."

He found a reason for him, and also gave him a step down.

But someone immediately stood up and refuted, urging for supplies is not such a way of urging, making a joke of a war in a city.

Reporting false news to deceive superiors is subject to court martial.

Chief of Staff Jiro Kikuta went straight to telegram asking for more details.

Where did the enemies who attacked Ruili come from?

What weapons are used and how many troops are there?
Even if there is no detailed data, it is necessary to have a general idea.

The number of rocket launchers, light tanks and heavy tanks is unknown, but they all appeared on the battlefield.

Kikuta Jiro completely believed the other party's statement when he got the call back.

When he returned to the staff office, he ran into the hurried intelligence officer Nishimura Shou.

Holding a document in his hand, Nishimura Shou went straight to the commander and reported: "The Sichuan Army dispatched seven helicopters and flew northward with more than a dozen journalists from various countries.

Such a large-scale dispatch of helicopters is rare, and it may attack some strongholds or cities to the north of us. "

Having said all of this, everyone knows that the Japanese army in the north should be prepared for defense or refuge to reduce possible losses if attacked.

However, Nishimura Shou did not wait for such an order.

Mutaguchi Ren also looked at Kikuta Jiro, his eyes full of expectation, hoping that what he got was not bad news.

Even if his subordinates refused to accept him and lied to him, he would admit it.

Kikuta Jiro shook his head slightly: "It's true."

Ren Mutaguchi's legs also trembled, and he quickly supported the table so that he would not fall down.

What does this mean?

This meant that the enemy had fooled them all, and when they thought they saw an opportunity to be complacent, they suddenly jumped out with a sap.

The beating made people dizzy, and they couldn't breathe for a long time.

Nishimura's face was very ugly when he learned about the cause and effect. The enemy's troop mobilization disappeared, and he didn't know when he left and where he went.

Undoubtedly confirmed his dereliction of duty, stupid.

His days as an intelligence officer were coming to an end.

Kikuta Jiro calmly analyzed: "The Tengchong defenders suspect that they will be attacked next, and the enemy's helicopters should be dispatched to them.

What support can we provide now?
It's too late for other things, so we can only send fighter jets and bombers, maybe they can win some opportunities for them. "

The Air Force was frightened by the Sichuan Army's anti-aircraft missiles. Once it was locked, the plane would be destroyed, and sometimes the pilots would not even have time to eject and parachute.

Let them bomb and deal with the Sichuan Army, they will try their best to find a reason to refuse.

Only commanders can use their official titles to overwhelm them and force the Air Force to "send their lives".

"Order the Air Force to immediately send fighter planes to Tengchong to support the operation."

Mutaguchi Ren also narrowed his eyes and said fiercely.

In any case, the 55th Division cannot be defeated, otherwise their [-]th Army will be one step closer to the abyss.

He is giving up now.

Afraid of offending people, even if there is no future, I am afraid of offending a ghost!
