Hu Lian arrived in Ren'anqiang at 4 a.m. and was led by Liu Fangwu until dawn.

It's late.

The Japanese army seemed to be prepared for the Chinese army to rescue the British army.

On the other side of Pingyun River and Baita Mountain, they are all building defensive fortifications.

New trenches and bunkers were constructed all night.

Especially the railway station was facing the east coast of the bombed bridge to the southwest direction, the mortar positions, field artillery positions, and the chain of bunker groups all stood up.

In addition to interspersed and cut off the connection between the various Japanese military groups.

Only strong attack.

The attack was too much casualties, and this was not what Hu Lian wanted.

Ren'anqiang is not big. Even if it is a little besieged, it is within the range of the artillery fire of the Japanese Artillery Corps.

The new 38th Division and the new 22nd Division did not have large caliber heavy artillery in their hands to restrain the Japanese field artillery corps.

After listening to many Zhou Xiaoshan's military situation to Deng Xihou and Liu Wenhui explained to Myanmar's military situation.

Already brainwashed.

The moment he received the order, he understood Zhou Xiaoshan's intention, and used the Ren'anqiang Oilfield to take advantage of the Japanese army's inevitable resources, stood here, and attracted more Japanese. Then the main force of the Sichuan Army heading south on the eastern front copied the retreat of the Japanese 15th Army, the group.

Encircle and annihilate all Japanese troops entering Myanmar.

In order to achieve this strategic goal, no matter whether it is the New 38th Division, the New 22nd Division, or the Liu Yuantang tribe, can accept too many casualties.

Otherwise, not only will it not attract too many Japanese troops to aid.

Not even able to achieve strategic goals.

As for saving the British, this is a gimmick, not a purpose.

"Boyu, the British sent another telegram to contact us, saying that we would not launch an attack and break the Japanese blockade, and they would surrender! Let's attack forcefully. We concentrated our troops to break through the old ferry crossing, occupied this nameless highland, and contacted the blockade hanging over the British, and rescued the British first."

The unwilling Hu Lian was having a headache.

After receiving the telegram from Sun Liren, he wanted to throw it to the ground.

These people will put pressure on the expeditionary army. You will surrender. Let’s see how the Japanese torture you.

"Teacher Liu, what do you think?"

Liu Yuantang, who had just arrived, waved his hand, but did not receive the telegram from Hu Lian.

"Director Zhou asked me to obey your command. He said that you are as cunning as a fox and will definitely not fight according to the routines prepared by the Japanese for us!"

Hu Lian is more cunning because of his surname.

He was called a fox very early on.

Many people in the command center knew about his nickname that he was called out, and they all laughed.

Hu Lian also laughed. Zhou Xiaoshan was so proud of himself at this time, and he was not kind-hearted. If this battle was not beautiful, he would really be looked down upon.

The situation of the Japanese's defense is indeed difficult to fight.

If you go up blindly, you will fall into the pit if you don’t do it well.

"Teacher Liu, please send me a telegram to Zhou Xiaoshan and ask him what good suggestions he has!"

Watching Liu Yuantang turn around.

Hu Lian asked Li Binghua, the staff liaison officer of the Nanyang Self-Defense Army, who followed the New 22nd Division.

"Staff General Li, your Nanyang Self-Defense Forces have no specific intelligence spies from Yangon to Ren'anqiang. I'm eager to know if there are any Japanese troops who will reinforce Ren'anqiang. When will they arrive and how many will they be?"

"All of them are watching? Director Zhou asked our self-defense army to have hundreds of people scattered in Yangon with the help of overseas Chinese from all over the country! But I need to contact them."

"That's great, please contact us!"

In Sun Liren's view, although the Japanese were heavily guarded near Ren'anqiang Oilfield, they were not as hard as they could not fight.

Liao Yaoxiang said that the Sichuan Army had a good training in offensive training.

The offensive tactics and ordnance configuration of alternating cover were also fully demonstrated in the defense battle between the Guardu.

I originally wanted to see how Hu Lian performed.

But this guy is too cautious.

The New 38th Division got up early and worked late.

What if the British really surrendered to the Japanese army, how could it end?

But Sun Liren's subordinates did not think so.

Liu Fangwu thoughtfully called senior.

"Even if you say it, it's not your fault if you say it wrong!"

Hu Lian looked at Liu Fangwu as soon as he spoke, and Sun Liren looked over and shut up again.

Looking at his careful subordinates as if they understood the wrong meaning, Sun Liren was helpless and cowardly, and was about to let him continue to say that Hu Lian spoke first.

"According to the situation where our regiment's reconnaissance troops were keeping an eye on the command center on the other side of the bridge, the Japanese train arrived very regularly. It was around 12 noon for two consecutive days, and there were Japanese planes escorting them in the sky!"

Hearing this, Sun Liren also encouraged Liu Fangwu.

"continue!"

"These three special trains are all the same train heads. The Japanese will concentrate their troops to unload the goods. After unloading, they will return! I suspect that the Japanese have a transit station between Yangon and Ren'anqiang. Of course, this is not important. What is important is that there is no protection from the Ren'anqiang Gui's artillery position five kilometers southeast, which is different from the domestic situation!"

Hu Lian and Sun Liren looked at each other and both grinned.

Liu Fangwu also easily pointed to the map.

"More importantly, there is a mountain pass more than ten kilometers east of Ren'anqiang. I think it is very suitable for ambushing! It is not only suitable for ambushing Japanese trains, but also for ambushing Japanese troops coming from Ren'anqiang. The artillery of the Japanese artillery positions cannot be fired. If artillery fire support is required, his artillery positions must be moved out of the current defensive position. We can send troops to stare at the Japanese artillery. Once we find that he came out to reinforce, we will take it to him. The only thing we need to be careful is the Japanese aircraft!"

Hu Lian looked at his watch.

There are more than three hours left before twelve o'clock, and preparation time is completely enough.

At this time, Li Binghua also came back with a telegram.

It is said that the Japanese established a transfer station on the road from Yangon to Ren'anqiang, and both cars and railways were transporting materials, ordnances, and troops.

Part of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army had already boarded the train to travel west on Yangon the day before yesterday and was rushing towards Ren'anqiang.

"Teacher Sun, Commander Liu, you two immediately gathered the troops and entered the valley that Commander Liu mentioned along the railway line. Commander Sun was responsible for ambushing and took the Japanese train to reinforce Ren'anqiang. Whether the people or goods he loaded were all captured. Commander Liu was responsible for air defense and blocking reinforcements from Ren'anqiang. The New 22nd Division was responsible for attacking several highlands defended by Japanese troops in Ren'anqiang, and how about rescuing British troops at the same time?

When Sun Liren saw Liu Yuantang laughing heartily, he patted his back.

"Or, Commander Liu is the reserve team, and the Japanese train is used to block the reinforcements of the Japanese army. I will do this together with the new 38th Division! Anyway, most of Commander Liu's troops are still on the road, and he needs to rest when he gets tired after hundreds of kilometers of boats and trains."

"This is not possible. I came to Myanmar to fight the Japanese. The Central Army can fight, and our Sichuan Army is not a vegetarian!"

"Stop fighting, it's decided. We will move the command center before, plan the ambush and block the terrain, and I will come back and stare at Ren'anqiang! By the way, Commander Sun lent me Commander Liu. If the 33rd Division reinforcements are ambushed by the Yamaguchi and I will detect the opponent's flaws, I will immediately deploy the attack method!"

At this moment, Liu Yuantang's adjutant also came with a telegram.

Zhou Xiaoshan in Lashio reminded Hu Lian that if the Japanese army in Ren'anqiang were well prepared, they would recommend that they first launch reinforcements and mobilize the Japanese army that had built the fortifications.

And air support can be provided.

Hu Lian grinned, it seemed that the heroes had similar opinions, and this battle would not be wrong.

How could he know that the commander of the 33rd Division in Ren'anqiang, Honda Zhengcai, was very dissatisfied with it.

During the incident, Honda Masato was the commander of the brigade. He followed Itagaki Seishiro to participate in the Battle of Nankou, the Battle of Kaixingguan, and the Battle of Xinkou.

Then it was transferred to the headquarters of the Chinese Expeditionary Army.

He was promoted to Deputy Chief of Staff of the Chinese Expeditionary Army.

He knew the combat power of the Chinese army, and the arrogant reconnaissance sentry in the northeast direction of Lianren Anqiang were not sent too far.

There were British people as bait, bunker fortifications carefully built by the warriors, and 150 wild runs as the main attack force. He believed that his 33rd Division had great combat power and was waiting for his work. He would definitely fight the three divisions of the Chinese Expeditionary Force who were abandoned.

According to the intelligence obtained by local Myanmar forces and in China, the three divisions of expeditionary forces, which have set out from Lashio and Mandalay, are likely to arrive today, trying to rescue the British trapped in Ren'anqiang.

The commander-in-chief of the 16th Army issued an order to him not only to occupy Ren'anqiang, but also to temporarily suspend the attacks on the British and strictly prevent the Chinese army from raiding.

Join the 18th Division to avenge the ancient Arrow!

The three divisions of the Expeditionary Force were wiped out.
Chapter completed!
