The Fourth Lightweight Division of the National Expeditionary Force and the Third Mechanized Army in Kolkata City, the main force of the Japanese Indian dispatched army retreated to the hinterland of India. Kolkata, an important hub for China to receive US aid, was recaptured, marking the end of the series of wars surrounding China, Japan and Britain from the end of 1943 to the present.

The Japanese Indian dispatched troops used Baus's influence to help the Indian people become independent and escape the exploitation of evil British colonists. The Japanese army was almost invincible for the empty defense of India's hinterland. The local Indian armed or police forces turned against each other and arrested local British soldiers and officials. When the newly formed unit formed by the British army in Delhi was defeated by the Japanese army, commander Major General Hickold was shot dead by the Japanese army, and the British army's established resistance in India came to an end.

After months of uninterrupted fierce battles, the First Mechanized Army, Second Mechanized Army and the direct troops of the Chinese Expeditionary Force have been fighting continuously. Although Chongqing has repeatedly tried every means to supplement its troops, the average reduction of personnel in each unit has exceeded 30%.

Now 80,000 troops with shortage of food and bullets were hung alone in Myanmar. For the celebration banquet requested by Song Yuhang, Xiao Guodong could do his best. Unfortunately, the dinner was not rich, but the drinks were sufficient. Xiao Guodong was very lucky to find two distillers left by the British, dug out a large amount of whiskey, and raised his glass to celebrate this hard-won victory!

On the last day of May 1944, the Chinese Expeditionary Force, which had run out of ammunition and food, celebrated this hard-earned victory in the small town of Kaheng, sixty kilometers away from Impal.

The young officers who scattered their youth and blood on the battlefield, and died and never cried, were really drunk at this moment. After months of fierce battle, people's nerves were always in a high degree of tension and had no time to take care of too much. Now they have finally achieved a phased victory. Recalling those classmates, comrades, and subordinates who died bravely, almost everyone held up their wine glasses and cried bitterly. As the saying goes, men don't cry easily, but they are not sad.

This time, Wang Xian and Zhang Zheming, who were born and died, raised their wine glasses and swayed towards Song Yuhang. Song Yuhang naturally stood up to greet the two heroes of Yingpaer.

"For victory! For the sake of the nation and the country, all sacrifices are worth it! Warriors who sacrifice for the nation and the country should shine with the sun and the moon!" Zhang Zheming raised his wine bowl high. The way of drinking was Chinese, but the wine was indeed British, and no one said anything due to the conditions.

In addition to Lu Long and Liang Chao, all the senior generals of the Expeditionary Force gathered together before the gathering. Since the deputy commander and lieutenant general were also lieutenant general, the ranks of senior military commanders of the elite troops of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, the elite troops of the national army, were one level lower than those of the central elite troops. Now Deputy Commander Song has become Commander Song, and Lieutenant General has become General. The future of everyone and the stars on their shoulders seem to be natural.

After a bowl of wine, Song Yuhang burped. At this moment, Song Yuhang's wine seemed to sink. Wang Chongxian poured a bowl of wine for himself and raised it in front of Song Yuhang and said, "Sir, Song, I have something to say today!"

Song Yuhang panicked and became heavier. He looked at the serious Wang Chong and said, "Tell me!"

Wang Chongxian sighed: "The country is destroyed, the family is destroyed, and the people are gone! I have never cried before facing the corpses and blood in Nanjing. I don't have a single tear as a soldier. Who can we blame ourselves for being too incompetent. We don't even have the ability to protect our relatives. I am ashamed! Sad! I have never beg anyone to give me sympathy. I am only full of anger and hatred! I, Wang Chongxian, live for revenge!"

Wang Chongxian knelt in front of Song Yuhang with a pounce, and said loudly: "I remember Chief Song said that one day he would take us to slaughter the four islands and thirty prefectures in Japan. I wonder if Chief Song's words are counted?"

All the noises in the land were calmed down at this moment. Everyone suddenly woke up. Now Japan still occupied most of China. It seems too early to talk about landing in Japan and even if they have the chance to land in Japan. Carry out a Tokyo Massacre? Both morally and internationally, they will be trapped in the state government for passively being the main responsible person in the event. The price of the government paying for this will be unimaginable.

Song Yuhang took a deep breath, paused for a moment, took Wang Chongxian's wine bowl and helped Wang Chongxian up. He said with great force: "Today I can tell you all solemnly. I, Song Yuhang, pay attention to the situation and have come and go. Let those who repay kindness with kindness, treat people with goodness and false righteousness and hypocrisy to feed the dogs! Since the Japanese dare to come here, they will harm our brothers and sisters and burn our homes. They will be prepared to bear the thunder of our Chinese people. As for the accomplices in Nanjing, I will not let them go! I want them to remember this famous saying that the axiom is only within the range of the cannon!"

OK! OK! OK! Long live! Long live! Long live! Cheering in shocking waves

Almost all the officers and soldiers who heard Song Yuhang's oath began to boil!

Song Yuhang raised the wine bowl high, slowly sprinkled the wine on the ground, and then said loudly: "The deceased has passed away. Those who sacrificed for the nation and country should always be shining with the sun and the moon. One day, our army will face the border and make the Japanese invaders pay their blood debts!"

When Song Yuhang faced many subordinates, he did not talk about the principle of saving the nation, nor did he analyze the current good international situation, nor did he have any monotonous official words to trap customers! Ordinary Chinese officers and soldiers are very simple. The reason why they turned into beasts burning with the flames of revenge is all the brutal Japanese invaders. The invasion war launched by the Japanese made these ordinary Chinese soldiers die. From another perspective, the Chinese have been forced into a desperate situation, either facing death or rising up to resist.

Such a straightforward narrative has always been very close to the grassroots officers and soldiers. Song Yuhang's previous life was just a captain, and now he has risen too quickly. He has been fighting and surviving in the sea of ​​corpses and blood on the front line. He has not had time to get involved in the habits of the officialdom, so Song Yuhang is more likely to get close to ordinary officers and soldiers than other generals.

The originally critical battle situation turned around in just a few days? Hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops gave up Kolkata and moved towards the hinterland of India.

Jiang Shi, who was in Chongqing, was deeply moved in front of the huge world map on the wall of the official residence study. In this battle, except for Yangon, the entire Myanmar has been restored. Now the main force of the Chinese expedition has occupied Kolkata, which is crucial to China with the plea of ​​the British government. When he thinks of Fatty Qiu's cripple expression, Chiang Kai-shek felt extremely happy. From Chongqing to Cairo when he returned to Chongqing, it can be said that the British have been posed with difficulties for the Chinese. As a politician who has always been very ambitious, what Chiang Kai-shek has always been the most unacceptable is that the British always acts as superior. The Chinese are not a second-class nation, and he is not the leader of a small African country. He can be allowed to drink by the British.

It can be said that all the good things today were brought out by the soldiers of the Expeditionary Army. Chiang Kai-shek was not a stingy person who was proud of his merits and high positions and honors. Most of the time, he was disappointed.

The Japanese army successfully entered the rich and empty hinterland of India, with a strong attitude of echoing the German African Corps. For China, Song Yuhang had fulfilled the most ideal result promised and expected, but Chiang Kai-shek also knew that from the perspective of the overall international situation, this was also extremely irresponsible. It can be said that the great victory of the Chinese Expeditionary Force can be said to be a huge failure of the allies from another perspective.

Hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops are shrunk in the small space

Once the Japanese army enters the Indian hinterland with vast space and abundant resources, the Japanese Navy will be used as its supply guarantee and the Indian traitors such as Baus will be echoed from afar. The role of the Indian dispatched forces changed by the former Burmese Front of the Japanese army will be infinitely magnified invisibly.

The great victory in Longling, the Battle of Myitkyina, the Naba Battle, the surprise attack on Impal and retreat to Kolkata! This series of battles made Chiang Kai-shek really not know what he should use to "reward" Song Yuhang. At this moment, Song Yuhang's position in Chiang Kai-shek's heart had reached an unmatched height. If it were someone else, what Chiang Kai-shek needed to consider now was that if he gradually deprived his military power and just found a senior director in the Military Commission to support him, but Song Yuhang was different from ordinary people.

What satisfied Chiang Kai-shek the most was that no matter whether he was: or whether he was thick, Song Yuhang would act very naturally, with some joy, and some dissatisfied with making small moves. The more he did this, the more relieved Chiang Kai-shek would be.

After brief discussions with He Yingqin, Chen Cheng and other major members of the Military Commission, Chiang Kai-shek decided to remove the sub-word in front of Song Yuhang's deputy commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, add a golden star to Song Yuhang's shoulder, and award him a blue sky and a red belt at one time.

The First Mechanized Army, the Second Mechanized Army and the Third Mechanized Army were reorganized and formed the First Mechanized Army, and transferred to Sun Liren, Liao Yaoxiang and others to Chongqing and were promoted to the Second Chief of Staff and Director of the Strategic Analysis Office of the Supreme Military Commission respectively.

For the troops that made military achievements this time, Chiang Kai-shek ordered all the promotions of all the officers and soldiers under his command to be drafted by the Chief Office of the Expeditionary Force and submitted them to the Supreme Military Commission. This can be said to be the highest honor that Chiang Kai-shek could give Song Yuhang the most capable people, but letting him elect officers and soldiers at all levels under his command on his own is extremely favorable.
