Age of Rebirth

~- -~Yangon, on the night of November 37th, in the war room of the Yangon Garrison Command of the Japanese Army, Ito was listening to the passionate report by the chief of staff, Major General Yuichi Kawashima, "Commander-in-Chief, during the day, in downtown Yangon During the period, there were a total of more than [-] fierce battles, and the time of each battle was extremely short, but only a few minutes. After the battle, the staff department counted the results of the battle, and killed [-] spies of the Grand Division."

Ito opened his slightly closed eyes, and asked with an expression: "How about the casualties of our Gendarmerie?" Kawashima hesitated, lowered his voice an octave, and replied: "The Gendarmerie suffered 670 casualties, of which 590 were killed. The rest are wounded."

Ito stood up in surprise, "Haney? What is the opponent's strength?" No wonder Ito was surprised. He killed 37 spies of the Grand Division, but his own soldiers took in nearly 700 people. This battle was so f*cking useless. , The casualty ratio was more than twenty to one. In fact, Ito knew that what he asked was nonsense.

How many troops can the opponent have, it will not be thousands or nearly ten thousand, right?If this is the case, Yangon is still guarding a fart. With so many army division soldiers coming in, I am afraid that his headquarters will also be occupied. The military police force, such a casualty ratio, is incomprehensible.

Ito estimated that there would always be thousands of people, otherwise, the artillery of the Imperial Army could not be guided at the same time to carry out devastating shelling on the artillery positions of the imperial army, but Kawashima's answer overturned Ito's judgment again.Confused him even more. [

Kawashima Machinery said: "So far, the strength of the counter-release is still judged, according to the report of the military police commander who participated in the battle. The spies of the ** division they encountered did not exceed 20 people, but the opponent's individual combat He is extremely capable, has very proficient fighting skills, and is quite responsive, so each battle should not exceed 5 minutes."

"After being attacked by the gendarmerie, the other side immediately withdrew and disappeared in the downtown area of ​​Yangon. We couldn't capture the direction of their retreat. So, so far, we haven't wiped out such a team, even the corpses. Because of the suicide method, it is impossible to identify. Judging from the number of places where the firefights took place, the number of spies in this army division is about 700 to [-]. The report is over!"

Ito's eyeballs rolled around a few times, and he said to himself: "Excellent individual quality. I will never love to fight, and I will not take the initiative to withdraw from the battle for the purpose of attacking the soldiers of the imperial army." Kawashima respectfully stood at attention Posture, staring at Ito intently, he knew.My old and cunning boss must be thinking of something?

Ito suddenly said to Kawashima: "Mr. Kawashima, mark the place where the firefight took place today on the map of downtown Yangon for me." Kawashima was busy on the map for a while, and then explained it to Ito one by one.

"To the west! I understand, this is Tang Qiuli's elite reconnaissance unit, Kawashima-kun, convey my order to mobilize all the military police units performing search missions in other areas to the periphery of the area where the fighting took place, I want to form a huge encirclement here, and catch all the scouts of the Grand Division in the net, and catch them all in one go."

As Ito said, he drew a large circle on the map with a red pencil, covering all the battle locations. Although Kawashima didn't quite understand what the commander-in-chief said, he still said loudly: "Ha Yi, immediately convey the order of His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, should we immediately mobilize the military police forces from other regions to gather in this direction?"

Ito said cunningly: "Yes, move overnight, and quickly, but order them not to take any action before dawn, and wait for my order." Kawashima nodded again and again, seeming to understand, but in fact conveyed it very confusedly ordered.

Ito looked at Kawashima's back, shook his head contemptuously, and said that he had captured the traces of the Grand Division scouts, an idiot, connecting all the battle sites is their range of activities, and, as time goes by, The battle locations gradually concentrated in one direction, which meant that the scouts of the Grand Division had received an order to gather in a specific area.

I surrounded this area with heavy troops, and then, by digging three feet into the ground, all these hidden dangers can be eliminated. Ito's head speed is enough, and he can find the traces of the Hawkeye team from another angle. Moreover, the conclusions reached are very close to the orders Chutian gave to the teams.

Chutian, who was resting in the abandoned manor, did not know that after the danger during the day, the Japanese military police search team stopped the search operation, the gunshots from time to time subsided, and the teams were temporarily safe, but a greater danger was coming. With the night, quietly forced over.

Northwest of Yangon, on the night of November [-]th, Yangdong Township, Yangon Frontline Headquarters of the [-]st Division, Division Commander Tang Qiuli, and Deputy Division Commander and Commander of the Yangon Campaign Tang Qiusheng, Division Chief of Staff and Acting Commander of the Directly Affiliated Corps Chang Feng was studying the latest information sent by the intelligence department. Colonel Yu Deshui, the director of the intelligence department, looked at the three big men with a solemn expression.

The intelligence content of the intelligence department is very important. It can be said that it will have an important impact on the future Yangon battlefield. A fighter wing and two bomber wings took off from the Japanese air force base in Taiwan, with an ominous purpose. In addition, various ports in Taiwan have been extremely busy recently. The supplies they transported are all oil and daily necessities, and they are heavily guarded. The local laborers were all ordered to leave the port, and there seemed to be signs of resupply for a large number of ships."

Tang Qiuli knocked on the information and said: "It is certain that the reinforcement of Yangon from the Japanese mainland has already begun. Unfortunately, we don't know more information, but one thing is certain, the Japanese army has increased the air force. It's not just one wing of fighters and two wings of bombers."

Tang Qiusheng took over the topic and said: "We have already prepared the fastest text update for the Japanese army's reinforcements on the Yangon battlefield. , Putting it over the Andaman Sea, isn’t that what it means? This is another form of siege and aid, and it can only continue to retreat southward after Ito has lost all hope.”

Tang Qiuli smiled and said: "Brother Qiusheng, is it that Le Yiqin is here to torture you again?" Tang Qiusheng nodded with a wry smile, and said with some regret: "This guy Le Yiqin flies a plane every day, Wandering around in the sea, unable to win any battles, I was suffocated, and these days, I always complained to me on the phone, saying that you are biased and leave the tough battles to the infantry."

Tang Qiuli also laughed, and said: "This guy is a natural militant. In this way, I will inform him of the news about the Japanese aviation in the intelligence. In my judgment, the increase in the Japanese aviation will never be so small." Son strength, tell Le Yiqin to be mentally prepared."

"Xinlan, send a telegram to Commander Le immediately." Tang Qiuli said to Liu Xinlan who was sitting quietly by the side, and then said to Deshui: "Director Yu, order the Taiwan intelligence station to strengthen the monitoring of the Japanese army's movements, Especially for the ships entering the port, I have a premonition that the Japanese will increase their troops this time, and the action should be very big, otherwise, they will come to die."

So far, even with Tang Qiuli’s experience, I don’t know that the Japanese army’s increase of troops on the Yangon battlefield is due to the arrival of land, sea and air, and the addition of the Japanese Navy’s Third Fleet. This unexpected factor has caused many variables to the Yangon battlefield. .

Seeing that the night was getting late, Tang Qiuli said, "Brother Qiusheng, go back and rest. Even if the Japanese reinforcements arrive, it will be a few days later." Tang Qiusheng, whose eyes were red from the boil, smiled and shook his head, refusing He said, "You are an official, so give me the big stall in Yangon. You go to rest, and Chang Feng and I are watching here." [

Just in time, after Liu Xinlan delivered the telegram, she stepped into the door, Tang Qiuli winked at her, Liu Xinlan smiled shyly, and picked up Tang Qiuli's windbreaker, these days, Tang Qiuli has been used to holding Liu Xinlan's hand The feeling of falling asleep with little hands, Tang Qiusheng saw this scene, and smiled knowingly with Chang Feng. As soon as he arrived at the door, Tang Qiuli seemed to think of something.

He stopped, turned around and asked Chang Feng, "Chief of Staff, has there been any news from Chutian? Is there any movement in Yangon City?" Chang Feng picked up a phone record and replied, "No, there has been no contact for two days. According to the report of the forward troops, gunshots continued to ring out in the city of Yangon all day today, but they were all staged and spread over a wide range. Judging by the gunshots, the time for the exchange of fire was very short."

Tang Qiuli turned back and said "oh" in surprise, and then his expression changed slightly, and he said, "No, Chutian and the others are in big trouble, according to the order, at this time, the Hawkeye team is in the latent stage, and it shouldn't be There was a fierce battle with the Japanese army in the city, which means that Chutian and the others were entangled by the Japanese army, and they would fight head-on if they couldn't do it."

Hearing these words, Tang Qiusheng also stood up. He completely believed in his younger brother's judgment. With the quality of the special operations detachment and Chutian's command ability, in Yangon with a population of nearly one million, he couldn't even do normal lurking. It must have taken a special method to force the Hawkeye team to surface. This is extremely dangerous for Chutian and the others who are in the wolf's lair. In the end, it is very likely that they will all be wiped out. of.

Tang Qiuli thought sharply, "Order Chutian and the others to withdraw? It can't be done. Now that Ito has discovered Chutian and the others, and has taken action, he will not let the Hawkeye team out easily, and break through the trench outside Yangon." The Japanese army position, I had the order to lurk on the spot at the beginning, because of this concern."

Chutian must be given the necessary support to attract Ito's attention, relieve Chutian's pressure, and get rid of the entanglement of the Japanese army, but what is the most appropriate way?
