Chapter 594 United Nations Army

Sure enough, Gao Jiu also ordered the troops to stop shooting. Everyone in the Taohuashan Special Forces team could speak Japanese and knew what to do whenever they encountered this situation. Many of the team members shouted, asking the Japanese army to put down their weapons, raise their hands, and line up to surrender on the road.

In Shihu City, the British and Burmese Servants worked hard to dig trenches, hoping to use these trenches to block the Japanese offensive. Although there are reinforcements from Gao Jiu and others, they are still worried that they can't stop the Japanese attack.

When they learned that the 21st Japanese Army Regiment had approached Shihu City, everyone was very nervous. The British Governor-General in Myanmar and senior British officers had no way out. They ran to the trenches and kept cheering and encouraging the British soldiers, hoping that they could continue to fight.

As time passed by minute by minute, they felt that the Japanese army was getting closer, so everyone was getting nervous. Among the British officers and soldiers, especially the soldiers of the Burmese Servant Army, many people were very afraid of the Japanese. They were ready to escape immediately if they could not stop the Japanese attack.

At 3 pm, the roar of the engine finally came from afar. The British and Burmese minions immediately became nervous and stared at the front.

The British Governor to Myanmar couldn't help but complain to Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu was clearly led three special operations squadrons of the Taohuashan guerrillas to harass the Japanese army in front. When the Japanese army came, they didn't even come to report the news.

Not long after, several war horses rushed over. The British officers and soldiers recognized these Taohuashan Special Forces team members wearing camouflage uniforms, and the British officers and soldiers on the front positions did not open a passage and let them pass by.

The commander of the 139th British Army Regiment saw the people from the Taohuashan guerrillas coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask whether the Japanese had already chased them. Since they arrived in Ruili, the members of the Taohuashan Special Forces have started learning English. These members have made rapid progress and can have basic English conversations. They told the British that the Japanese could not come anymore. The Taohuashan Special Forces not only defeated the Japanese, but also ate a whole mechanized infantry brigade of the Japanese army.

The British didn't believe it, thinking that it was impossible. They could not defeat the Japanese even if they had tens of thousands of troops. The Taohuashan Special Forces had only a few hundred people, and they could defeat those powerful Japanese mechanized troops and even eat a mechanized infantry brigade. This was incredible.

Soon, the facts subverted their perception. Gao Jiu and others escorted the brigade of Japanese prisoners and appeared in front of them in captured Japanese armored vehicles.

The British officers and soldiers in the position and the officers and soldiers of the vassal army stood up one after another. Looking at the dejected Japanese prisoners, their mood was very complicated. They were both happy and ashamed. Why did they have such a huge difference in combat effectiveness from the Taohuashan Special Forces in the same army? The officers rushed over and asked about the battle. They were all very moved, and at the same time they enhanced their confidence in defeating the Japanese.

According to Gao Jiu's suggestion, the British Governor in Myanmar issued a gathering order to the British army and the troops of the vassal army in various parts of Myanmar, allowing them to move closer to Shihu City, gather enough troops, and then launch a counterattack on the Japanese army according to the situation and recover lost territory.

Gao Jiu stayed in Shihu City for the time being, waiting for the gathering of British troops.

At this time, Gao Jiu received a call from Zheng Sanpao, saying that a large number of Japanese troops appeared on the east bank of the American Sai River. They were preparing to cross the river and attack Stone City with the 21st Brigade of the Japanese army.

At the same time, the warlord of the Golden Triangle that was beaten away colluded with other warlords in the southern part of the Golden Triangle, and was once again ready to invade the area of ​​the northern part of the Golden Triangle.

Gao Jiu asked the Taohuashan Special Forces Squadron led by Wang Zhankui to monitor the 51st Japanese Army Regiment on the east bank of the American Sai River. As for the warlords in the southern part of the Golden Triangle that were ready to move, Gao Jiu had long thought about how to deal with them.

Jinan City.

Since Gao Jiu went to the south, although President Fujiwara sent telegrams to Gao Jiu every once in a while, he felt that he was still far away. He couldn't help but miss this hateful guy.

On that day, when he was about to go to bed at night, a phone call came in. He quickly answered the phone, but it disappointed him. The phone was not from Gao Jiu, and the sound from inside was a woman. However, what made him happy was that this woman was doing the service for Gao Jiu. She said that Master Jiu had ordered to exchange Swiss francs worth 100,000 oceans. In order to thank President Fujiwara for his long-term help, Gao Jiu gave President Fujiwara 1,000 anti-Japanese medicines.

President Fujiwara was very happy and thought to himself: "Old friend Gao Jiu is still thinking about himself." So he asked Takahashi to do it according to Gao Jiu's request.

The person who met Takahashi was Liu Ting, a female guardian under Bao Yuchun. She handed over the ocean in her hand to Takahashi, got Swiss francs from him, and then handed over the 1,000 anti-Japanese medicines she brought to Takahashi, asking Takahashi to tell President Fujiwara that Ninth Master would come to Jinan for a while and invite him to drink at that time.

After Liu Ting got these Swiss francs, she contacted the adjutant of the Third Air Force, Masao Yokoda and handed him over the Swiss francs and 5,000 anti-Japanese medicines.

The adjutant of Yokota Makio flew to Hanoi, Vietnam on the same day. On the way, he passed by the Japanese Second Air Force, the Fifth Air Force, and the Seventh Air Force Airport, where he refueled and distributed the anti-Japanese medicine he brought to them.

Finally he arrived at his destination, the Army Eighth Air Force, Saigon Airport, Vietnam, handed over the Swiss francs to the adjutant of the commander of the Eighth Air Force, and asked him to help with something.

The commander's wife of the commander of the 8th Japanese Air Force was Swiss, and her favorite was the Swiss franc. The commander loved his wife very much, and his wife liked her, so he was naturally happy. When he saw Gao Jiu's request handed over by the adjutant of Yokota Makio Yokota, he was even happier. He felt that Gao Jiu's emotional intelligence was too high and helped him solve a big problem.

It turned out that the 8th Japanese Air Force never bombed Gao Jiu's territory, which required a suitable excuse every time. Not long ago, the 21st Japanese Air Force requested the support of the air force, but he did not send the plane over. Itagaki Kiyoshi directly found his uncle and put a lot of pressure on the air force. Although the 8th Air Force found a lot of excuses, he still felt a little embarrassed.

Gao Jiu asked the Eighth Japanese Air Force to bomb the Golden Triangle this time, which solved his troubles. So he spent a lot of money and sent 48 bombers at a time to bomb the Golden Triangle.

This time the bombing was very fierce, turning the largest city in the Golden Triangle region, Menglong City and several surrounding areas upside down, causing major casualties.

Of course, they bombed not the northern part of the Golden Triangle, but the southern part of the Golden Triangle. Tens of thousands of warlord troops who had finally assembled were preparing to attack the northern part of the Golden Triangle, but were bombed violently and then scattered into birds and beasts.

In order to prevent the Japanese 21st Brigade from asking them to send planes to support him again, the commander of the Eighth Air Force simply carried out a second bombing on the southern part of the Golden Triangle and threw all the air bombs they stored at once. When the Japanese 21st Brigade requested support, they had the excuse of being tough and there were no air bombs.

After completely eliminating the threat from the Japanese Air Force, Gao Jiu was ready to launch a counterattack on the Japanese army.

Wang Zhankui led his Taohuashan Special Forces to the west bank of the Meisei River and met with the Zheng Sanpao troops. They saw the Japanese gathered on the east bank of the river, fighting with the Japanese army with the artillery fire he brought in during the day. At night, they sent some special forces members to cross the Meisei River and launch a night attack on the Japanese army's 51st Regiment. At the same time, they used a loudspeaker to shout to the Japanese army, saying that the territory of the Taohuashan Guerrillas Jiuye in front of them, warning them to leave here immediately, otherwise they would be severely punished.

To be honest, since the 52nd Japanese Regiment was eliminated by Gao Jiu, the 51st Regiment received an order to cross the Golden Triangle to reinforce the 21st Japanese Brigade. After the attacks of Wang Zhankui and others, they followed the warning of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas and quickly evacuated the ferry.

Now, Gao Jiuzheng leads the main force of the North District of the Golden Triangle to cooperate with the British. The armed forces in the Golden Triangle area are relatively weak. In order to avoid anyone trying to fight the Golden Triangle, Zheng Sanpao proposed to establish boundary markers at various intersections entering the North District of the Golden Triangle, indicating that in front of it was an area controlled by Gao Jiuye’s Taohuashan Special Forces. It specifically reads: "If you dare to enter this area, you will be punished even if you are far away."

Due to the haste and no time to build a stone tablet, Zheng Sanpao asked someone to make a big brand with wooden boards, which wrote the above content in English and Japanese.

When the Japanese saw the text on the boundary marker, they thought about the ending of countless Japanese troops fighting Gao Jiu, and retreated obediently. As for the other surrounding warlords, they all turned their heads and shrank turtles, and no one dared to cross the line and cause trouble.

At this time, more and more people gathered at Shihu City. The remnants of the 141st, 142, and 143rd Regiments of the British Army all ran to Shihu City. There were 4,800 remnants of the Myanmar Servant Army, 2,500 Laos, more than 6,000 British Indian Servant Army, more than 1,500 Vietnamese, 3,600 Thai troops, and 2,200 Cambodian troops. There were more than 40,000 coalition forces gathered in Shihu City. They jointly elected Gao Jiu as the commander-in-chief of the coalition and prepared to counterattack Yangon City.

The coalition forces led by Gao Jiu are real coalition forces, including the British, Burmese, Thai, Lao, Vietnamese, Indian, Chinese, and actually the Japanese who secretly provided help to them. Of course, Gao Jiu will not forget the air force of the Kuomintang army and will definitely ask them for help during combat.

Gao Jiu had money and supplies. First, he provided weapons and equipment to these troops, provided accommodation for them, and treated the wounded. After calming down the morale of the army, he reorganized them.

Gao Jiu divided these troops into two combat groups according to traditional affiliation. The first combat group includes the Taohuashan Special Forces, the Construction Company Self-Defense Force, the Kokang Autonomous Army, the Vietnamese Army, and the Lao army, with a total of 12,000 people, commanded by Guo Hengming.

The second combat group includes the British, Myanmar Servant Army, Thais, Indians, with a total force of more than 35,000, and is commanded by the British Governor-General to Myanmar.

The two combat groups are unified and commanded by Gao Jiu.

Just when the troops of all countries were defeated by the Japanese army and were in a mess, on July 12, the coalition forces led by Gao Jiu took the lead in launching a counterattack against the Japanese army.

After the Japanese 21st Regiment, the captain of the Japanese Army's 21st Regiment, Kiyo Itagaki suffered a heavy blow from the Taohuashan Special Forces, retreated to the Nanwen River line, 55 kilometers away from Shihu City, waiting for the troops of the 21st Brigade to come and meet.

The brigade commander of the 21st Brigade led his troops to the Nanwen River from Yangon. After seeing Kiyoo Itagaki and learning the details of the failure from him, he also felt a deep headache. Before this, he also believed that although Gao Jiu could defeat other Japanese troops, facing the powerful mechanized troops of the Fifth Division, Gao Jiu could only escape by looking at the wind. Now he really started a war with Gao Jiu, and as soon as he fought, he had such a result, and his heart began to feel distressed.

According to his previous personality, his troops were attacked by the enemy and he would retaliate without hesitation. However, he led the main force of the 21st Brigade and stayed in the Nanwen River for a whole week, but he still did not dare to take a step forward.

At 9 a.m. that day, a roar suddenly came from the sky. They saw countless small black dots flying from the horizon. The small black dots became bigger and bigger. It turned out to be a huge air force.

At the beginning, the Japanese officers and soldiers were very happy, thinking that their air force troops came to reinforce them. Unexpectedly, these air force flight formations flew over their base and a large number of aviation bombs were thrown down.

It turned out that Gao Jiu was good at mobilizing all the forces that could be mobilized in war. After preventing the Japanese Air Force from joining the war, he sent a telegram to his wife, asking the Aviation Committee to notify the National Air Force, mobilized a large number of bombers, took off from Ruili and Kunming Airports, and came to bomb the 21st Brigade of the Japanese army.

Although the Japanese 21st Brigade was a mechanized unit, their air defense power was relatively weak. Under the fierce bombing of the National Air Force, there was basically no power to fight back. Their tanks, vehicles and artillery were blown into scrap metal, and the casualties of the personnel were even more severe. After this air strike, the entire 21st Brigade lost 70% of various vehicles and the casualties of the personnel reached 40%.

The commander of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese army was lucky enough not to be killed. He finally understood that he was no match for Gao Jiu at all. So he led his troops to retreat towards Yangon City.

Gao Jiu commanded tens of thousands of coalition troops to attack and advance in the direction of Yangon City. He was only attacked by a small number of Japanese troops along the way and soon arrived near Yangon City.

The 21st Brigade of the Japanese army learned that Gao Jiu was leading such a huge army to fight. They were worried about being surrounded by Yangon City, so they gave up Yangon City, fled all the way south, and fled directly into Thailand.
