Chapter 870 What do you think of the next battle (the second chapter is here today)
"In fact, I think it is a good thing to cooperate with the 33rd Division to attack together, because we can help each other. After all, we are fighting abroad now, not in the country where we are familiar with the China Army.
, so it’s good to have one more elite force to support operations!”
"Otherwise, let me be responsible for communicating with the officers of the 33rd Division!"
"What do you think? Your Excellency, division commander!"
Seeing the unattractive look on the face of the 55th Division Commander Hiroshi Takeuchi, Chief of Staff Sato Shinsuke also responded quickly.
But this time he stopped speaking cautiously, because he felt that the support of an additional division would be safer than having a single division fighting alone abroad.
"But the thing that worries me now is not the cooperation with the 33rd Division, but the latest news from the intelligence department and the headquarters that the China Army is preparing to send an expeditionary force to support the British troops here.
The army is here!"
"I am not afraid of the British army at all now. Judging from their disastrous defeat in the battle on Hong Kong Island, they are just paper tigers. I am absolutely confident that they can easily defeat these paper tiger British troops!"
"What makes me a little worried now is that the China Army that was sent to support the British army this time defeated the 5th Division of the heavily damaged China 200th Division!"
"Although I am not afraid of this Chinese army, but now we are fighting abroad, and suddenly there is a Chinese army that may change abnormally at any time, and I always feel very uncomfortable!"
"So now I'm thinking about how we can deal with this and that Chinese army!"
"Because the details and situation of the China Expeditionary Force collected by our intelligence department are not very clear, so I only know that there is the China 200th Division, and whether there are other China troops attacking together.
I don’t know anything about how many troops were deployed in the battle!”
Regarding the response from Chief of Staff Sato Shinsuke, the commander of the 55th Division, Hiroshi Takeuchi, expressed his concerns.
"The final victory will definitely be ours. If the division commander wants to know the structure of the China Army's expeditionary force this time, then we can have close communication with the Intelligence Department and the headquarters to get them as soon as possible.
Give me detailed information about the China Army's deployment!"
"And no matter how many troops come from the Chinese Army, we will not fight alone in this battle. I believe that if there are particularly many troops from the Chinese Army, the strength of our side will also increase, and this time
In the battle, once the British troops here are successfully driven away and the place is fully occupied, the thousands of kilometers of the China Army's Yunnan-Burma Road will be completely cut off!"
"Let all the Chinese troops be trapped in their country, run out of ammunition and food, cut off from communication with the outside world, and cut off from the support of foreign weapons and equipment from abroad!"
"In this case, I strongly believe that the China Army will soon be completely trapped in the country by our imperial army, preventing future troubles!"
"And the final victory belongs to our Imperial Army!"
"Without the support of foreign weapons and equipment, the remaining Chinese army is just a bunch of losers. It has no threat to our imperial army at all. Even if there are foreigners now supporting some military supplies and supporting military flying units, they are still
We cannot shake the occupied areas of our Imperial Army!"
"So we don't need to be afraid of these Chinese troops going abroad to fight!"
"We will kill as many as they come!"
"Just like in the China Army, continue to kill these useless China Army, leaving no one behind!"
After listening to the concerns of Hiroshi Takeuchi, the commander of the 55th Division, Chief of Staff Sato Shinsuke was full of confidence and looked down upon the combat effectiveness of the 200th Division of the National Army, and even all the National Army troops, and said with contempt.
"Gah! You are absolutely right. I just thought too much. Since these damn Chinese troops dare to come to fight abroad, then be prepared to be completely annihilated by our imperial army abroad!
"
"Whether it is the British army or the Chinese army, I am not afraid of them at all. I will let them come and go without coming back. We will kill as many as they come. Our imperial army is the most powerful force, especially our first
The 55th Division is an even more elite force!"
"Thank you, Chief of Staff, for the reminder. Now let's discuss how to capture Dawei and Mawlamyine as quickly as possible, and then Yangon!"
"As for the communication with the 33rd Division, if I am not free, then I will leave it to you!"
"But in order to complete the combat mission assigned to us by the base camp and headquarters as quickly as possible, I think I mostly don't have time to deal with the communication with the 33rd Division, so I need to ask you!"
After hearing the response from Chief of Staff Sato Shinsuke, the commander of the 55th Division, Hiroshi Takeuchi, immediately responded,
"Don't worry! I will definitely handle these little things, and I will also give you a report on the results of my communication with them. Of course, I will still focus on our combat deployment work in the end, because
I am a combat staff officer, and I must share with you the combat deployment on the battlefield!"
"Because this is the most important job I need to do in the army!"
"Your Excellency, Division Commander!"
After hearing that the commander of the 55th Division, Hiroshi Takeuchi, gave him the power, Chief of Staff Shinsuke Sato quickly responded with gratitude.
"Yo Xi! I leave everything to you, my most capable chief of staff!"
After hearing this, the commander of the 55th Division, Hiroshi Takeuchi, also showed the kindest smile and thanked him.
So the two of them were relatively harmonious and continued to discuss how to defeat the British troops stationed in Dawei and Mawlamyine in a short period of time, as well as deal with the National Army Expeditionary Force troops who came for reinforcements at any time and at any time, especially focusing on
Follow every move of the 200th Division.

Japanese Burmese Front Army Headquarters,
The commander of the Japanese Burma Front, Shozo Kawabe, was having a secret meeting with the commander of the 15th Army, Shojiro Iida.
"The division commanders of the 33rd Division and the 55th Division have received our combat instructions, which of course also includes the news that the China Army will form an expeditionary force to attack!"
"What do you think of the next battle? Do you think our two divisions can fully occupy all the British territory within a month?"
"Or is it possible to fully occupy Dawei and Mawlamyine in southern Myanmar within a week? And then within two weeks, or within a month at the latest, fully occupy the areas where the troops are stationed here.
Yangon, the capital?”
As soon as these two old devils met, the Burmese Front Army Commander Kawabe Shozo became anxious and asked the Fifteenth Army Commander Iida Shojiro,
Because he is now eager to quickly advance and occupy all the British army's territory, and then join forces with the German army, and take the oil in the place where they join forces as his own, thereby solving the natural resource oil that the Japanese army most urgently needs.
In fact, the major reason why the Pacific War broke out was because the Japanese army lacked oil and were restricted by the American army and did not export oil supplies, which caused them to go berserk and provoke a war.
Of course, it is also because the ambitions of the Japanese army are getting bigger and bigger, so they are ready to annex even the foreign territories in one go to strengthen their own development.
"One month is definitely not needed. One week to two weeks is hard to say. If we don't count our emergency march and the time it takes to transport troops from Taiguo to fight, then it is still barely possible.
!”
"Although the combat effectiveness of the British army is not very important, it cannot be ignored that their weapons and equipment are still better than those of the Chinese army! At least they still have tanks and chariots!"
"So we will temporarily give the frontline troops a month to fight!"
"Anyway, the final victory belongs to our Imperial Army!"
