Chapter 3: The Rise of Great Powers 252: India Confrontation
"It's time to reconcile with the British, and the crimes they committed in the colonies were enough to throw them into hell."
This sentence is the mantra of the soldiers who turned against Siliguri. These rebel soldiers are more brave than the attack of the Asian coalition, and they do not have strict discipline like the Asian coalition. The sudden release caused these soldiers who were originally from the British camp to chase and kill the local British soldiers who had abused them. In addition to the British officials sent to Siliguri, they were also implicated. Fortunately, these Hindus were not bloodthirsty, and many were able to escape from the turbulent city. The tax officer told in front of Duke Dachaus was also such a lucky person, but this experience obviously frightened him. The revenge power of the originally docile Indians frightened him.
Just when Duke Dachaus was helpless, Yang Luchan, located in Kohima, also began to feel the strong pressure from the British army.
As early as ten days ago, the Asian coalition had changed from offensive state to position defense. These newly dug trenches were playing important roles at this time. Faced with the fierce attack of British troops, the soldiers hid in the trenches and curled up. The violent shelling shocked the ground, causing the soldiers to feel the ground trembling slightly. This vibration could be clearly felt in the rear of the coalition front command of the 359 Highway, sand was falling from the roof of the command center, and the commanders in the room did not stop the meeting.
A young officer with a tall figure explained to the officers in the conference room: "It has been 47 days since the Battle of Kohima started on January 18 to March 15. The war has gradually weakened from the initial fierce offensive to now. Now the two sides are mainly consuming each other through artillery attacks. Occasionally, small troops of both sides will produce one or two insignificant encounters in the mountains and forests of the war zone. Judging from the situation of this battle, the British army has learned to use trenches in the battle, and the British army creatively arranged the wire transport net in front of the trenches, which has greatly hindered our army in the early attack and provided opportunities for the British army's artillery. Looking at their trench positions, a large-scale circular position was formed with Kohima as the center. This battle was the logistics of our Asian coalition.
There are still areas that need to be improved urgently. Our attack on February 18 can completely tear open the British defensive positions. But because of the lack of logistics, we are worried that the ammunition will not be available. We have lost a chance of victory, so that the British army has received assistance from the surrounding areas. Now the British army gathered on the battlefield of Kohima, which has reached 120,000, so our frontal attack is already very
It is difficult to work. The army that our army is the main attacker in Kohima includes 70,000 Chinese 6th Army, 50,000 Myanmar 6th Army, 10,000 Vietnamese 6th Army, 5,000 Siam 6th Army, and 5,000 Cambodian 6th Army. This is the general situation now. How to carry out the battle in the future? I also ask all colleagues to speak freely and contribute to the stability and peace in Asia. After the report is completed, please give instructions from the general. "
Yang Luchan waved and said, "Sit down!"
"Abide by the order."
The young staff officer Li Xiucheng reported the battle situation. After Zuo Zongtang, the chief of staff of the First Army, led the army to attack, the young officer who was deeply loved by Zuo Zongtang replaced him to handle the daily affairs of the staff.
After Li Xiucheng finished speaking, the simple command post fell silent for a moment. Yang Luchan sat on the big golden sword, his waist straightened. He placed one hand on his knees and the other hand on his beard and said to the leader of the Burmese army: "Let's ask General Nushan to talk first."
General Nushan was wearing Burmese armor, his face was purple and black and his body was stout.
After hearing Yang Luchan's words, General Nushan stood up and bowed to Yang Luchan, and then said, "Dear General. If we can take over the area east of Kohima and control the upper reaches of the Qindun River, our logistics supply will be strongly guaranteed. From China to Myitkyina, from Myitkyina to Xinbeiyan, ammunition supply can be used to facilitate the Qindun River and transport it to the front line quickly."
Nushan's words opened up the crowd and everyone began to talk.
Over the past few days, the army has been fighting continuously and has not been able to capture Kohima for a long time, and the morale of the troops has been affected. In addition, the logistics supply is unstable. The supplies from the rear are often attacked by British troops. So there are many complaints in the army. Most of these dissatisfactions are targeting the issue of military logistics supply. Yang Luchan had expected this situation, and he quietly made everyone feel dissatisfied. With Yang Luchan's prestige in the army. No one dares to be a thorn in the army on weekdays, so it is rare to hear the opinions of the officers. It is not a good thing to hear these opinions now. Faced with the opinions of everyone, Yang Luchan just listened quietly.
After everyone was finished talking, Yang Luchan took a sip of tea and said to Li Xiucheng: "Staff Officer Li, please inform us of the situation of other war zones recently."
Li Xiucheng stood up quickly from his seat, his body straight as if he was a pine tree. This officer, who is appreciated by the emperor today, has the unique temperament of a soldier, and every move is in line with the rules of the lecturer's martial arts lecture hall.
He clasped his fists and saluted Yang Luchan and said loudly: "According to the headquarter of the Army's General Staff, the Left Chief of General had captured Silhet on February 26, and a Bangladesh army surrendered. He is now calling on the people of British India to rise up to resist the unjust British rule. There is also a third army report, General Zeng Guofan led the third army to capture Langpur. He also received news from the Northern Army that the Northern Army was composed of the 1oo, 1o1, 1o2, 1o3 infantry towns under the Tibet General's Office and the army of Gurkha and Bhutan. The commander is the Tibet General Wang Dayong. The Northern Army won the first battle and has captured Xiliguli, an important town in the north of British India, and has received a large number of Indian soldiers surrendered. After the report is completed, please give instructions from the General."
This news was undoubtedly an exciting news. All the officers present immediately felt that it was a meaningful thing to insist on being in Kohima. If it weren't for the main force of the Expeditionary Force and the main force of the British army, how could the other armies achieve such good results?
At this time, Yang Luchan said slowly: "Listen to my general's words."
As soon as Yang Luchan finished speaking, the command post was silent immediately, and the occasionally sounded guns and cannons in the distance were immediately clear and audible. The generals present were all generals who had been in military service. The sounds of guns and cannons seemed to be like the sound of firecrackers during the New Year. No one cared about these. They habitually raised their chests and sat upright on the wooden bench. The generals from the Indochina Peninsula were full of admiration and desire for such an army. Inadvertently, they also imitated the appearance of the top officer and fully demonstrated the good posture of a soldier in the command post.
