In the next more than an hour, the two battalions of the airborne brigade quickly advanced from the left and right wings to the middle, disrupting all the deployment of the Japanese army at once. After losing the radio and telecommunications functions, the Japanese army's command system was immediately lost. Due to the due dispatch, the cut-off troops were at a loss, and the troops in the middle were caught between the left and right wings, and they were suddenly in chaos. With the remaining two battalions of the airborne brigade fighting from the front and besieged from three sides, the last hope of the Japanese army was shattered. , the army had to flee all the way to the north, and the airborne brigade chased them all the way, chasing them a few miles before withdrawing.

What they want is not to wipe out the number of enemies, but to effectively defeat the enemy's combat power, so that they cannot organize effective attacks in a short period of time. At this point, they have undoubtedly achieved it.

Corpses were strewn across the two main roads, and more than a thousand enemies were wiped out. In addition to those in the jungle on both wings, it is estimated that more than [-]. With the strength of two Japanese brigades and one puppet brigade, more than half of them have been wiped out. It was difficult to organize an effective attack anymore, but unfortunately, the black lights were blind, and the exact location of the Japanese artillery positions could not be determined, allowing them to escape.

However, they also harvested a lot of small-caliber mortars and infantry artillery from the enemy, which can be regarded as making up for the lack of any supporting firepower.

In the temporary headquarters, Han Mufeng proudly pointed to the watch on his wrist, and showed off to Liu Xianwei: "How about the traveler seat, two hours as promised, I, Han Mufeng, didn't brag, did I?"

"You can!" Liu Xianwei gave Han Mufeng a thumbs up, and then said, "How about the casualties?"

Speaking of this, Han Mufeng's eyes suddenly flashed with pain, and his smile froze instantly, "More than 600 people were killed, more than 300 were injured, and more than 100 people were missing. The details have not yet been calculated."

"Ah, so high?" Liu Xianwei opened his mouth wide open for a long time and didn't close it.

The establishment of the airborne brigade is relatively large, and basically continues the establishment of several old divisions of the Nanshan Independent Army. One division has three brigades and twelve regiments, and the brigade has four regiments under its jurisdiction (the airborne brigade is a temporary establishment, so there is still a lack of one regiment). There are four battalions under the regiment, and so on. A full battalion has 600 infantry, plus artillery, engineers, secret agents, communications, medical and other troops directly under the regiment headquarters, a total of 200 people.In other words, this battle has already caused more than one-third of the casualties of the second regiment, which is definitely the biggest casualty for them since their formation.

"Okay, leave him alone." Liu Xianwei waved his hand and said, "Han Mufeng, immediately dispatch the first and second battalions to support the first regiment. The second and third battalions will quickly clean up the battlefield and launch defense."

Before the Japanese army knew about the defeat in the north, it was necessary to gather superior forces to quickly resolve the threat in the south.

"Yes, travel seat!" Han Mufeng puffed up his chest, turned and went out.

Chief of Staff Tang Hao said: "Traveler, I have been thinking about a question, maybe the Japanese army's supplies have not been transported away?"

"What? What grounds do you have?"

"Do you think, how many supplies should the six divisions of the Japanese army have? At least tens of thousands of tons, how many transport vehicles do they need to transport so much supplies? But I just asked Mr. Ne Win and some Ordinary people, they have not noticed a large number of vehicles coming in and out recently, so how did they transport these materials out?"

Liu Xianwei was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that this was very important information, and this was also the most difficult problem for them. They couldn't find the fuel for the Japanese army. Even if they were transferred to the helicopter tomorrow, they would not be able to exert normal attack power, and the ammunition could be dropped by air. , but fuel also needs to be airdropped, which is too difficult.

Indeed, since the Japanese army invested so many troops to set up this situation, they must have thought that they could completely annihilate the airborne brigade, so they didn't need to spend so much effort to transport all the supplies away, and it would be easy to expose their intentions.

The question is, where can the materials be if they are not in the warehouse?This is tens of thousands of tons of materials, which cannot be hidden by just digging a few holes, and this heavy rain weather has very high requirements for the storage of materials.

"Bring me Bonnewin."

Liu Xianwei gave an order, and a guard hurried out.

Not long after, Bonnewin hurried in with a bandage on his right arm.

"What, are you injured?" Liu Xianwei asked with concern.

"Report to the brigade, it's okay, but I was bitten by a pistol bullet, and the bullet has been taken out." Bonnewin replied with his chest up, as if he had regarded himself as a member of the airborne brigade.The battle just now was too shocking for him, big enough to make him stand in awe of the army in front of him.

"It's fine, Mr. Ne Win, I want to ask, do you know if there is a large air-raid shelter in Lashio or any large caves nearby, the kind that can hide thousands of tons of supplies?"

"Ah?????? Do you suspect that the supplies of the Japanese army have not been transported?"

Liu Xianwei did not hide anything, and repeated Tang Hao's analysis just now. Bo Naiwin frowned, saying that he used to live in Yangon and was not very familiar with it. I really don't know if there is such a place. However, he thinks that he can ask the local old people about this matter, they must know.

Because the Abe United team in the south has not been resolved, Liu Xianwei naturally can't take care of these things. Bonai Win volunteered to investigate the matter, of course Liu Xianwei was so happy.

The troops were quickly assembled. It was said that there were two battalions, but in fact there were less than 800 people, but no one paid attention to these at this time.There are also battle reports from the south, and their bayonet battles are also very hard. After all, the Eighth Division of the Japanese Army is also a permanent division of the Japanese Army. How many people support them is a big force.

Hundreds of people rushed all the way, passing through Lashio from north to south, which was only three or four miles away. For the monsters like the Airborne Brigade, it only took about ten minutes.

After leaving the city, one could see blazing fires everywhere in the field ahead, and thousands of people were fighting in a vast field.

The shouts of killing, the staggering sounds of cold weapons, the laughter, the screaming cries, and the puffing of bayonets piercing flesh were all in chaos.The grass seedlings that were originally green had already been trampled to a flat plain, even covered with a layer of mud, and dead people were lying everywhere on this muddy grassland.

A good positional battle was turned into hand-to-hand combat. I am afraid that the Japanese army did not expect it. The powerful lineup of tanks and heavy artillery was completely useless, so they had to retreat hastily. But in this dark night, these big guys had to be dismantled , And get rid of those tanks that can move or can't move. Without light, it is impossible, so the Japanese army lit a fire on the battlefield.
