Chapter 778: Joining the Expedition


Zhang Wei used a few adjectives to express his negation of the British army with an absolute attitude, and the attitude was very clear, Zhang Wei, who had read the history of the war in another time and space, of course knew how the British fought this battle, and predicted the result, Zhang Wei's answer could be described as very happy, without half a minute of hesitation He was only pessimistic about the future situation of the British army in Burma and even the British army in Southeast Asia in front of Du Junzuo and Luo Shenzuo.

Zhang Wei talked a lot, but not a single word was good, and the British Yankees were criticized incompletely, although some places were slightly exaggerated, but most of them were facts that had to be faced.

Commander Du lowered his head and pondered Zhang Wei's analysis, but Luo Youlun, chief of staff of the army, asked.

"Zhang Wei, this British people shirk our army's defense in Burma in every way, and have a bad attitude, which is true, but they have been operating in Burma and other places for decades, with a solid foundation of rule, and very good weapons and equipment, light and heavy equipment are better than those of the Japanese army, even if the Japanese army is fierce, if it wants to eat the British army in Burma and the British army in Southeast Asia, it will have to break two big teeth, even if they can't win, I don't think it's as pessimistic as you said."

Zhang Wei sneered: "Zanza, the Japanese have now occupied Thailand, they can invade Thailand anytime and anywhere, Burma is the dish on the plate of the Japanese, when to eat it depends entirely on them, the first hand is in the hands of the Japanese army, what is the advantage of the British army's weapons and equipment under the absolute strategic advantage and tactical advantage, and the performance of the Japanese army's weapons is inferior to that of the British, but the terrain of Burma is mountainous and rainforesty, which restricts the play of heavy firepower, the Japanese infantry is strong and strong, and its willpower is not comparable to the British army, With its combat routine, it is bound to use interspersed and rapid assault to give full play to its infantry superiority and reduce its shortcomings in firepower. ” "The foundation of British rule in Myanmar, no matter how much rule is just colonization, not only we Chinese are patriotic, dare to fight for freedom, Myanmar also has such people, Myanmar this bird place is very chaotic, long-term colonization, various forces in the country are complicated, in the eyes of those Burmese, I see that the difference between the British and the Japanese is not big, it is not good to be closer to the recent himself, at least the Japanese and Burmese look like a point, they are all Asians, the so-called ruling foundation of the British is nothing more than relying on long-term oppression and oppression, What is the significance of such a foundation, it is no different from a broken window paper that blows it. ” "The Japanese entered Burma, and it was the British who wanted to drive them away, I think it would be good if the vast majority of Burmese people did not defect, the army recruited and organized by the Burmese who had been oppressed and colonized for a long time, and where to talk about desperately resisting the British British-Burmese army, which was dominated by Burmese, was also at the bottom of the British colonial army system in terms of combat effectiveness, and the puppet army formed by the devils was almost the same.

Zhang Wei said on his lips, thinking to himself, this Chief of Staff Luo's idea may represent that most of the officers who know about fighting in Burma now, although many of them are dissatisfied with the arrogant attitude of the British, but they may still have some illusions about the British in the war, thinking that they have the strength and ability to hold Burma, which is completely understandable, as an old power, although Britain is not as strong as it was back then, but on the surface it is still majestic.

Zhang Wei's criticism and pessimism may be a little alarmist in Luo Youlun's eyes, and Commander Du must have this idea in his heart, otherwise Commander Du would not be silent.

In fact, if Zhang Wei did not have the memory of his previous life, and did not have the knowledge of another time and space and the influence of war history, he would probably have a certain confidence in the British, and he would not be as pessimistic as he is now.

Commander Du said in a deep voice on the side: "What Senza and Zhang Wei said make sense, the British have been operating in Burma for a long time, and the resistance ability should not be too weak, and the Japanese army is engaged with our army, and the tactics of frontal assault and flank detour have been used, and the tactics are more flexible, and against the British army, the Japanese army will definitely give full play to its advantages." ” Zhang Wei said: "Military seat, the Japanese garrison in Burma, the main force is the 55th Division and the 33rd, 56th Division, these three divisions are not good, two of them have fought with the national army, have actual combat experience, and occupy Thailand, and now they are eyeing the Thai-Burmese border, most of the soldiers are veterans of bloody battles, skilled in combat effectiveness, high combat quality, have fought a lot of jungle and mountain battles, and are fully equipped divisions, in addition to these three divisions, the Japanese army also has the 18th Division in their hands, as well as a large number of Thai puppet troops, As long as the Japanese army takes these three divisions as the core and strengthens other units, it will soon be able to organize a powerful corps, which should not be underestimated. ” Although he knew that Zhang Wei had a relatively accurate opinion and judgment on the international situation, Zhang Wei now reported the number of the Japanese army, but he still did not get any report on the war situation, which of course shocked Commander Du, and even Commander Du, who was about to enter the China-Burma-India-Malaysia military investigation group, has not received an accurate report on the number and deployment of the Japanese army.

Although China and Britain are now allies, the exchange of military intelligence has not yet been on the right track, and the information received by Commander Du is very limited and scarce, even the British themselves cannot estimate the strength of the Japanese army that may attack in the future at this time, let alone provide enemy information to an ally who is still vigilant.

The information about the war and enemy situation in the direction of Burma in Zhang Wei's mind all came from the war history and research in his previous life, and a little bit of it was revealed casually, which these two commanders did not know.

"There are actually three divisions and the Thai army that the Japanese army can use," Chief of Staff Luo Youlun said in shock.

Commander Du did not know the details of the enemy situation, and Luo Youlun, chief of staff of the army, did not know, and when he heard Zhang Wei say that the Japanese army could use at least three divisions, Luo Youlun's face was full of disbelief, one Japanese division and regiment was enough to take on an attack in a strategic direction on the Chinese battlefield, and three divisions and regiments could fight a large-scale battle in World War I.

"Yes, Zanza, this is just my personal estimate, at least three elite divisions, I have been paying attention to the battle situation over there, not necessarily to ensure accuracy, but also eight or nine are not far from ten, these three divisions are just the basic plate of the Japanese army, if the Japanese army is desperate, at least one more division can be transferred, although the combat effectiveness of Thailand's vassal army is not good, the number is still useful, and the strength that the Japanese army can use is far more than the current British army in Burma."

Zhang Wei said with great certainty.

The strength of the Japanese army, Zhang Wei is extremely sure, the strength of these three divisions is the bottom line of the Japanese army, in fact, in that time and space, the 15th Army of the Japanese army that attacked Burma had a total strength of nearly 150,000 people, and the three divisions that directly attacked Burma were the three divisions that Zhang Wei said.

In addition to these three divisions, there are chariots, engineers, artillery, baggage, railways and other directly subordinate wings and a division of the eighteenth division, the number of Thai troops fighting has reached more than 70,000 people, not to mention anything else, just the number of this Thai puppet army, it is enough to make the two in front of him stunned, that is, Zhang Wei did not say the number, if you say it, Du Junzuo and Luo Shenzuo, it is difficult to say whether they can eat at night.

After Zhang Wei analyzed the situation of the enemy and us on both sides, the most sorrowful thing was Du Junzuo, Du Junzuo had long been mentally prepared to go abroad to fight, sitting in the position of the commander of the Fifth Army, he knew some things too well, the elite troops had to have the responsibility of the elite troops, but the Fifth Army was the troops he brought out, the more complicated the situation of the Japanese army Zhang Wei said, the more difficult the combat situation that the Fifth Army would face, and similarly, casualties and losses would increase.

In the office, there was extreme silence, and Commander Du poured a cup of saliva and sat thoughtfully "Zhang Wei, give you three days to arrange the following matters in your group, this time to investigate abroad, you will go with me as an attaché."

Zhang Wei: "Military seat, this" Suddenly let himself go to the inspection group, Zhang Wei was directly stunned, and looked at Commander Du with his mouth open.

It came so suddenly that I was unprepared, so I had to go abroad with the bird expedition by myself.

"This is an order, it must be carried out," Commander Du said in a serious tone.

"Hehe, Zhang Wei, this is also the military seat to support you, who is the composition of the inspection team, you should also know in your heart after reading the telegram, you can follow the military seat to investigate, it will only be good for you, there is no harm, you have studied the situation in Myanmar and abroad very deeply, and it will also be of great benefit to my Fifth Army to fight abroad in the future, you have to cherish it."

Chief of Staff Luo Youlun interjected.

The two commanders in the army both spoke, and at this point, Zhang Wei had no choice but to agree to join this "China-India-Burma-Malaysia Military Investigation Mission." ” "It's Xie Junzuo's love."
