Age of Rebirth

The first thousand and 580 chapters and five plots against Stilwell

The two brigades of the Japanese Hakataka Regiment attacked the [-]th Regiment of the [-]th Infantry Division of the U.S. Army on the front line of the Calais Mountains. Like a summer rainstorm, they came and went quickly and occupied the front line of the U.S. Army. After that, they gave up again, and all retreated to their original positions.

For this kind of cat-and-mouse-like game, the Yingxiao Regiment played several times a day, and the Japanese army, from officers to ordinary soldiers, called this game "hunting," and the prey was of course the American soldiers on the opposite side.

However, because the U.S. artillery did not open their eyes, they knocked down the flag of the 51st Regiment, which annoyed Colonel Takataka. Today's attack is more than twice as powerful as the daily attack. Once, correspondingly, the casualties caused to the No. 18 regiment of the US military were much more.

All the officers and soldiers of the No.18 Regiment of the U.S. Army understood why this happened. Only Stilwell did not understand. Seeing the casualties of the U.S. soldiers, he had some doubts about what his adjutant, Major Higgs, told himself about No.18 According to the casualties of the regiment, if every attack by the Japanese army is of this intensity, the casualties of the soldiers should be very large. [

However, from the perspective of an experienced commander, the reason for the casualties of the troops is not only the intensity of the Japanese attack, but a large part of the reason is that the fortifications of the No.18 Regiment were poorly built and the layout was unreasonable. Not to mention, in Stilwell's view, Colonel Albert, the head of the regiment, was just coping with the matter, and he was simply making fun of the lives of the soldiers.

Stilwell's anger shifted from the dazzling Japanese military flag to the fortifications of his own troops. He looked at Colonel Albert severely, and said, "Colonel Albert, as a regimental commander, Is it to order your subordinates to build fortifications like this? Even the most basic common sense issues can be ignored, and the lives of many soldiers will be lost in vain because of such poor fortifications!"

"I don't allow a commander to have such a poor performance on the battlefield. I will never allow it! Commander Albert, I order you as a commander to immediately strengthen and rebuild the fortifications. Here, we need to dig another eight Ten centimeters, over there, on the route where the Japanese army can charge, build a right-angle anti-infantry trench, and need to add a few more firepower points!"

Speaking of purely military issues, Stilwell unconsciously entered the role. He stood up, and in front of Captain Albert, he talked about the basic points of building fortifications and the issues that need attention. wait.

Colonel Albert, on the other hand, was staring anxiously. To be honest, the ferocious Japanese attack just now scared him enough. Everything will return to normal as usual. As for what Stilwell said about how to build fortifications, etc., he didn't hear a word at all.

It was not easy to wait until Stilwell had time to catch his breath, Albert hurriedly said: "Yes, Commander, the department has made a note, and we must improve and strengthen the fortifications according to your requirements. This place is too dangerous, please Back to the division, shall we?"

What Albert said was the truth, there was no hypocrisy at all, the forward position is so close to the Japanese army's position, in case of any unexpected situation, Your Excellency the Commander encountered an accident on the position of his regiment, then he The only thing left is to go to the military court!This cowboy general doesn't have the slightest personal relationship with him, but he definitely doesn't want him to hurt his future!

Colonel Albert, I was really anxious, but in Stilwell's ears, it was too much perfunctory, Stilwell refused him without hesitation, and said: "Captain Albert, at No. I will not leave until the fortifications on the 18th Regiment's position have been thoroughly improved and reinforced. It is safe there. I am on the battlefield, and it is not safe there. The position of the soldiers is where there are guns and guns! "

Albert swallowed anxiously, full of helplessness, well, this unpopular commander, His Excellency, has begun to lose his temper again.

And what Chutian saw in the high-powered artillery team mirror was a group of people around Stilwell, gesticulating on the battlefield.

At first, Chutian didn't know what the group of people were doing, and he didn't know what Stilwell would do when he was lying on the ground to observe the American soldiers after being attacked. After seeing a group of people, Chutian relied on Intuitively, I decided that it was a group of US military officers, so I secretly took my heart, and slowly adjusted the focal length of the artillery mirror back and forth, and the target gradually became clear in my sight.

Suddenly, Chutian's heart trembled, and his breathing was a little short. He could see that Stilwell was among the group of officers. Although it was not very real, the general outline was absolutely correct. Chutian had seen Stilwell At the time when Stilwell was ordered by MacArthur to go to Yangon to meet with the division commander to discuss the "Tiger Shark Action Plan", Chu Tian led a special operations team, and together with Shanhu's security brigade, served as security for the meeting site. Defend work.

After seeing him only once, Chu Tian, ​​who had received strict training, remembered all of Stilwell's characteristics in his heart. After confirming his mistake again, he adjusted his emotions and tried to calm himself down.

Chutian was faced with a choice. This was the best chance to kill Stilwell. It was very simple. Send the coordinates of Stilwell’s current location to the Japanese artillery. As long as the artillery covered the area once, no one could survive. .

However, Chutian still couldn't make up his mind to use the hands of the Japanese to get rid of Stilwell without anyone noticing and without any sequelae. Troops, will the front line collapse because of this?Whether it will affect the division commander's strategic plan, you must know that one of your own decisions can change the battle situation in Luzon Island!

Chutian’s hesitation only took a moment, he had already decided to kill with a knife, when Chutian was hesitating, he remembered what his teacher said, “After the Japanese are defeated, if the strength of the Americans is not severely affected In the case of losses, in the South Pacific region, our ultimate opponent will be the Americans, because the Americans will never be willing to let such a rich land fall into the hands of the Chinese, and finally fight with the Americans. Unavoidable!"

What prompted Chutian to make up his mind was precisely what the teacher said. To a certain extent, Stilwell will be a strong opponent for the independent division in the future. This opportunity cannot be missed. The killing intent in Chutian's heart is irresistible. spread.

Colonel Ying Xiao noticed the change in Chutian and asked in surprise: "Fujino-kun, what did you see? It surprised you so much? If it was the Americans, then there is no need. After every attack by the imperial army, they did the biggest thing." One of the most important things is to bury the corpses and carry away the wounded soldiers. I am used to it. By the way, my subordinates have captured dozens of American prisoners of war. Don’t you want your sword to be stained with the blood of the enemy?".

Colonel Yingxiao's words were very explicit. He wanted Chu Tian to go with him to kill a few American prisoners of war. In Colonel Yingxiao's opinion, this was the best way to entertain this imperial envoy captain. Nothing beats killing prisoners of war. Looking at the fear of the prisoners before they died, seeing the bright red blood splashing in front of their eyes, it is more exciting, or it is a kind of fun! [

Chu Tian cursed angrily in his heart, "All the little devils have the same virtue, they are all out-and-out perverted murderers," but he said, "Your Excellency, what I saw is more attractive than cutting off the heads of prisoners of war! "

"Oh!" Colonel Takako Jiro raised his short eyebrows, surprised, and looked not very interested. Chu Tian turned around and said, "Your Majesty, take a look, the group of people on the US military camp opposite, According to my judgment, it must be the commander of the US military. If the artillery of the imperial army suddenly covered that area with artillery fire, what do you think will be the effect?"

Colonel Takakojiro reacted very quickly. After hearing what Chutian said, he rushed to the front of the artillery mirror and only glanced at it a few times. When he turned around, his face turned red with excitement. There, however, Captain Fujino did not make a mistake in his judgment. A group of US military officers is certain. It is of great significance to kill as many ordinary soldiers as Americans, nor how many commanders!

Takako didn't even have time to talk to Chu Tian, ​​and rushed to the phone, "I am Colonel Takako Jiro, the commander of the regiment. Now, I order the forward artillery observation post to determine the target's position and coordinates. All the artillery of the field artillery brigade belonging to the regiment should immediately Prepare for artillery coverage, I repeat, it is artillery coverage, use up all the artillery you have stored, and turn that area into a place of death!"

Chu Tian suddenly shivered. This devil Dasa Takajiro is cruel enough. This is to keep Stilwell's bones there. A field artillery brigade, with more than 20 medium-caliber artillery, fired all the cannons. Qianfa?

That is, five or six minutes later, a burst of cannon piercing the air screamed and passed over the shelter. Chu Tian hurriedly picked up the binoculars.

"Boom, boom, boom!" There was an earth-shattering loud noise, and Chu Tian saw that at the place where Stilwell and a group of US military officers were standing just now, the blasting points of the cannons were next to each other, thick pillars of soil, one after another. Emerging from the ground, the diffuse gunpowder smoke, the sparkling fire, and the stirred up mud and gravel turned the area covered by the artillery fire into a hell of death.

Chu Tian put down his binoculars, closed his eyes, and felt the taste of French language in his heart. He knew too well that after the bombardment, even a complete body could not be found in the pits everywhere. Stilwell would never be spared. , unexpectedly died here, not in the battlefield of head-on confrontation, but in a conspiracy, and the instigator was himself.

I don't know why, but in Chutian's heart, there is no excitement at all, more, it seems to be a kind of daze!
