Chapter 877: Admiral Alexander's resentment (Chapter 1 is here)
When all the officers and soldiers of the 200th Division still didn’t know where they were going and when the trains transporting them would stop,
As the new commander of the 200th Division, Dai Anlan had also received instructions from Du Yuming, the deputy commander and commander of the 5th Army, to go to the Tonggu side to pick up the defending British troops.
Because Yangon, the capital city defended by the British army, was about to be unable to hold on,
The British army is evacuating their main force from Yangon.
Moreover, the Japanese army now has two more reinforcement divisions. Together, there are four Japanese division groups coming to deal with the British army and their expeditionary forces.
Moreover, their arrival has been betrayed by some Japanese intelligence agents and Burmese traitors, thus exposing their whereabouts. Therefore, regarding this serious exposure issue,
Deputy Commander Du Yuming also asked division commander Dai Anlan to be cautious and be wary of sudden surprise attacks by the Japanese army, especially the incoming Japanese aircraft.
Because Deputy Commander Du Yuming also dispatched a large number of Japanese aircraft to bomb the British
When division commander Dai Anlan received a telegram from deputy commander Du Yuming,
That is, what happened after the Japanese aviation force completed the bombing of the British Army's Magway Base.
Therefore, he also conveyed the news that the British flying unit was severely damaged by the Japanese aircraft group to the division commander Dai Anlan.
As soon as I arrived abroad, I haven't started a war with the Japanese yet.
I encountered a lot of unpleasant things one after another,
There is one bad war news after another,
For a while, the division commander Dai Anlan also felt that this time he led the troops on an expedition, it might not be so smooth sailing.
At the very least, they don't have trains that stop and transport them to the designated area to receive defense.
Although he only conveyed the emergency telegram to all the officers and soldiers of the 200th Division after receiving the emergency telegram from Deputy Commander Du Yuming, their destination was Tonggu.
Time has not passed very long, it has just happened.
But before that, I must have been waiting for half a day,
All the trains either did not arrive at the station, or they were all carrying British troops for evacuation transportation. They were not given extra trains to march.
As for asking them to march on foot, that was impossible.
I have just arrived here, and it can be said that I am very unfamiliar with the terrain, environment, and location of the area.
As Hui leads his troops and gets lost in the wilderness,
There are many towering trees here, and there are also many virgin forests.
Therefore, had they not been forced into a desperate situation, Deputy Commander Du Yuming and Division Commander Dai Anlan would never have allowed their expeditionary force to march on foot as soon as they arrived abroad.
Otherwise, I'm afraid that before the battle with the Japanese begins, there will already be many sick officers and soldiers.
After conveying that the new destination is Donggu,
Division Commander Dai Anlan also immediately telegraphed Deputy Commander Du Yuming, asking him and the Chairman of the Generalissimo to urge the British army to send a train to take them to Tonggu to pick up the defending British troops.
Then, the division commander Dai Anlan also looked solemn and continued to lead his troops in the train waiting room to wait for the arrival of the train transporting them.
However, his mind was already thinking about where he should take over the defense after arriving at Tonggu, and how his troops would fight.
This was the first battle abroad, and the 200th Division he led was also the vanguard to fight against the Japanese army.
Therefore, they must have some reputation and achievements, otherwise their real purpose of going abroad to fight will be in vain, except to protect the Yunnan-Burma Highway, prevent the Japanese army from cutting off their contact with the outside world, and obtain military supplies
In addition to assisting in combat operations, it is also to enable them to perform well on foreign battlefields.
Let those foreign powers provide more military supplies to fight against the Japanese invasion.
Therefore, the pressure on the teacher Dai Anlan is also quite heavy.
So after thinking for a moment, he sighed deeply, and then stopped thinking about negative things.
However, the train sent by the British army to pick them up still did not arrive at the platform to pick them up.
.......
.......
At this time, Deputy Commander Du Yuming, who was riding the special train,
Also very soon, I received a call back from the division commander Dai Anlan.
So he also quickly read through the latest reply telegram handed to him by the communications soldier.
"The train transporting them hasn't arrived yet? What are these British troops doing?"
"Weren't they defeated by the Japanese troops? Aren't they evacuating from the capital Yangon?"
"You're not just focusing on evacuating and forgetting that our expeditionary force is here to help, right?"
When Deputy Commander Du Yuming read the telegram that division commander Dai Anlan asked the communications troops to reply, he immediately muttered to himself very dissatisfied.
Of course, he was dissatisfied with the transport speed of the British army, not with the division commander Dai Anlan.
So after he finished vomiting, he immediately asked the communications troops on his side to send a message to the top brass of the British army to resolve the matter.
However, after he asked the communications troops to send out the inquiry telegram, the train he was riding on was moving very fast.
Therefore, this train was also unexpected. The railway it was running on had been destroyed by the Burmese traitors and the people who believed that the Japanese troops were here to help them drive away the British army and gain independence.
So before Deputy Commander Du Yuming could close his eyes and rest,
When the entire train reached the damaged train tracks, suddenly the entire train was overturned and fell to the ground.
All of a sudden, the deputy commander Du Yuming inside the train and the guards who escorted him broke out in a cold sweat. The train carriages were all overturned, and they suffered bruises and bruises from the collision, as well as minor injuries.
hurt.
However, this time the injury caused deputy commander Du Yuming to have his face disfigured.
When Deputy Commander Du Yuming was rescued from the overturned train car by his own guards,
Those Burmese traitors and people who destroyed the railway had fled long ago.
In response to this, Deputy Commander Du Yuming was trembling with anger. He wanted to kill all these Burmese traitors.
And he also scolded these people who had been brainwashed by the devils, so that they could wake up and see clearly that the devil troops were not here to help them become independent, but to invade their land and occupy this place.
It's a pity that both the Burmese traitors and the people who worked together to sabotage the railways have fled in large numbers. The remaining people who have little value will be of no use if they are caught.
So Deputy Commander Du Yuming is so angry!
But even though he was so angry, he quickly maintained a calm mood and quickly dealt with what happened to him and his emotions.
But regarding the wounds and injuries on Deputy Commander Du Yuming’s face and body,
The medical staff around him, as well as the guards who survived without much injury, also quickly gave him the best care and the wounds on his face.
.......
.......
Just after Deputy Commander Du Yuming was injured for no reason by those Burmese traitors and people who joined forces to destroy the railway spikes, causing the train to overturn and was injured,
The Japanese troops were also already attacking Yangon, where the British troops were holding on.
But to be precise, the British troops were evacuating in embarrassment.
The commander in charge here is General Alexander, the new commander of the Myanmar Army.
The vanguard of the Japanese army responsible for attacking here was the Japanese 55th Division.
At this time, the Japanese troops were fighting against the British 7th Armored Brigade near Bago.
But the battle is very pessimistic.
So soon, inside Yangon City,
The new commander of the Myanmar Army, General Alexander, also continued to receive bad news from the British 7th Armored Brigade, which was retreating steadily.
"Damn it! Are these Japanese troops so difficult to deal with?"
"The 7th Armored Brigade cannot defeat these Japanese troops? It is still retreating and wants to return to the city?"
"What are they doing? Why can't they even defeat the troops of a small island country? Are they still the elite armored brigade of our empire on which the sun never sets?"
After reading the bad news one after another from the British Army's 7th Armored Brigade, which was defeated by the Japanese army, the new commander of the Burmese Army, General Alexander, wanted to tear all the Japanese troops into pieces and roared again and again.
