After a while, Leng Rushuang turned back and told Jiang Haoran that the airborne troops were ready to go, and they were expected to arrive in the sky above Mina at noon to start airborne, and then took out a telegram, saying that it was sent by Kang Ze in China, specifying to send it to Jiang Haoran of.

Speaking of military commander Dai Li, people who have a little knowledge of history may know it, but when it comes to Kang Ze, not many people may know it.In fact, Kang Ze's reputation during the Republic of China was no less than that of Dai Li. He and Dai Li were known as the "Second Dukes of Kang and Dai", and Kang Ze was still in the front. Why is Kang Ze so famous?Because both Kang and Dai are the intelligence eyes and ears of the chairman, Dai Li is in charge of external intelligence, and Kang Ze is in charge of internal intelligence of the party and the country. Enter to meet.The senior officials and generals of the party and state are even more afraid of Kang Ze, often he can decide the fate of many people with one word.

Of course Jiang Haoran was no stranger to him, but he frowned immediately, knowing that Kang Ze was interceding with Liu Bolong, the commander of the 28th Division, because both the 28th Division and the 29th Division were adapted from Kang Ze's Rangers, based on Liu Bolong The mistake he made would not be too much to kill him a hundred times. Kang Ze sent a telegram to Jiang Haoran with a low profile, obviously knowing Jiang Haoran's style of doing things, this is an early vaccination.

But Jiang Haoran took the telegram without even looking at it, and directly handed it over to Chief of Staff Huang Jie to deal with it, and then shouted for the Snow Wolf Special Forces to set off.

The speed of helicopters is not as fast as fighter jets and transport planes. Although their journey is several hundred miles closer, there is still some distance for them to leave for the temporary helicopter base. There are no roads in the mountains and forests. Few, probably a little later than the airborne troops, so Jiang Haoran didn't want to delay for these trifles at all.

Looking at Jiang Haoran's back, Huang Jie was holding a telegram in his hand, with a sad expression on his face, making one feel that he was about to cry.

At [-]:[-] am, Bangkok, the Japanese Southern Army Headquarters.

The results of the air battle have already come out. Although both sides dispatched a large number of fighter planes, they were afraid of each other and did not carry out cruel aerial strangulation. In order to ensure the air supremacy in northern Myanmar, the national army focused on defense. They also took the opportunity to carry out aerial reconnaissance in northern Myanmar, focusing on shock. The two sides retreated after a small-scale contact, so the casualties were not large.

The Japanese army knew very well that now the No.40 Group Army plus the Flying Tigers had a very strong air power. The temporary deployment of a limited number of flying teams by the navy alone was not enough to compete with them. All had to wait for the fifth flying brigade to be replenished. , and with the cooperation of the navy, it is possible to fight against them. Shouichi Terauchi believes that this day will not be too far away.

The effect of deterrence has been achieved. The warriors of the imperial army saw with their own eyes the imperial fighter planes reappearing over Burma. The Fifth Flying Regiment was wiped out, and the panic brought to the imperial army was largely alleviated.

At the same time, with the help of this air battle, the reconnaissance plane took back a large number of photos of the battlefield in northern Myanmar, cleared out the worthless ones, and there was a large pile of them, which filled several tables. After repeated inspections and comparisons, Shouichi found a The big problem is that there is no trace of the Fifth Army of the Expeditionary Army in all the photos taken. Although the heavy artillery regiment and the tank regiment are there, the strength configuration of the aerial photography and the discovery of the ground troops are only half of the expeditionary army. It was the strength of the Fifth Army that disappeared.

Moreover, tens of thousands of ordinary people were found in the direction of Homalin in Mengguan. Although it is basically certain that they are expatriates who retreated with the expeditionary force, what are they doing in the direction of Homalin?These questions deeply troubled Shouichi Terauchi.

Chief of Staff Tsukada Makoto made a bold assumption, could the Fifth Army be on its way to Homalin?This bold assumption shocked Tsukada Gong himself. Although only a large number of expatriates were seen in the aerial photography, the Fifth Army is also known as the most elite unit of the national army. It is basically a semi-mechanized unit. It is reasonable to march on the road. Hiding, but with the Air Force’s early warning, it’s a different matter. After all, it’s the army. It’s entirely possible to hide in the jungle and disappear from the sight of the imperial army’s reconnaissance planes, but it’s very difficult for ordinary people to do this.

If this assumption is true, it is entirely possible for Jiang Haoran to hope to occupy Homalin, because Homalin belongs to the India-Myanmar border, and if it passes through the jungle for more than 200 miles to the west, it will be Imphal in India, so the expeditionary force will have It is possible to temporarily solve the supply problem, otherwise it is really hard to explain why these tens of thousands of expatriates suddenly retreated to Homalin.You know, since the British army retreated, Homalin was directly thrown to the imperial army. Although Homalin's garrison is not many now, there is still a brigade, which is more than enough to deal with tens of thousands of unarmed expatriates.

Shouyi in the temple was also shocked. Although he said it was impossible, he still ordered the staff to bring a partial map.

After a partial map of the India-Myanmar border was spread out on the table, Terauchi Toshiichi picked up a magnifying glass and compared it with testing tools repeatedly, and finally believed that Tsukada’s idea was not valid.

The reason is simple. It is two hundred miles from Mengguan to Homalin, not counting the distance to the Hukang River Valley. Although it is less than two hundred miles from Homalin to Imphal, there is no road to Imphal , The supplies of 10,000+ people of the expeditionary force are impossible to achieve through several sheep farm trails that require wading through mountains and rivers.

As for the common people, he believes that this is Jiang Haoran's trick. On the one hand, it can confuse the imperial army, and on the other hand, the supplies of the expeditionary army are not enough. Withdrawing to India, although there are some risks, but the borders extend in all directions, they can choose to enter the Indian jungle in front of Homalin, and there is still a possibility of escape to a large extent.

Besides, Shouyi in the temple didn't believe it, Jiang Haoran dared to divide his troops in the face of several divisions of the imperial army, and even attacked Meng Gong and Mina without any scruples. Isn't this simply seeking his own death?

But if it is said that he used the two armies as cannon fodder to cover the retreat of the fifth army's main force, Terauchi Shouichi still believes it a little bit, and he is very happy to see the result. The Five Armies were expelled from the country, and the Burmese campaign had ended perfectly, and he could go to the base camp for the honorable first time, but he himself didn't believe that Jiang Haoran would do this, which obviously didn't match his style.

Speaking of Jiang Haoran's courage, Tsukata Gong didn't think so. Combined with Jiang Haoran's previous battles, and after he airborne Burma, he first disabled the Fifth Flying Regiment, and then attacked Meng Gong to attack Mi Na with fierce moves. Every time it was unthinkable, and all of them were bold and outrageous, if you say he didn't dare, I really can't find a second person who is more "dare" than him.
