At 17 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, after consulting the Chongqing Military Commission, Du Yuming issued a general breakout order for the third time in the name of the deputy commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, thus kicking off the Mandalay breakout.
After issuing the order, Du Yuming felt that his heart was blocked, and he secretly sighed that what kind of battle was this called, entering Burma for several months, breaking through three times in a row, and retreating to return to the country However, Du Yuming, who instructed the chairman of the committee, did not dare to delay, and immediately led the two divisions of the New Fifth Army and the 66th Army to quickly retreat along the railway, planning to seize Myitkyina, a strategic point in northern Burma, and then break through the Japanese blockade and return home.
Song Yuhang had already taken the initiative to undertake the task of breaking down, and Du Yuming naturally couldn't treat him lightly, first of all, he transferred 600 veterans with more than four years of military age to Song Yuhang from the new 22nd and 96th divisions, and then added 50 grassroots officers to Song Yuhang from the reserve directly under the army, and all weapons, ammunition, and materials were openly supplied to the 200th Regiment.
When Du Yuming originally intended to report to Chongqing, he wanted to use the 200th Regiment to cover the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Commission, but he didn't expect the Commission to directly instruct the 200th Regiment to cut off the entire expeditionary force, Du Yuming really couldn't see through the old man's meaning, and the importance of the queen of the palace As the commander of the first army, Du Yuming was naturally very clear.
After Song Yuhang left, Du Yuming recruited Liao Yaoxiang again, and asked the new 22nd Division to prepare two regiments of troops, alternately cover the retreat, and be ready to meet the 200th Regiment at any time.
For Liao Yaoxiang, who can stare at others and is comparable to a live donkey, he has no temper at all in front of Du Yuming, a senior and big brother.
After accepting the formal order, Song Yuhang stood on the jeep and watched the mighty expeditionary force pull out, and sighed in his heart that this team had long since lost the spirit of the original 3,000 tigers to restore China, and all the people had only one thought in their hearts, retreating, retreating.
The war situation has been eroded to such an extent that Song Yuhang once wanted to go over and remind Du Yuming that the Japanese army would forcibly occupy Myitkyina in advance, but Du Yuming, who obeyed the instructions of the chairman, would accept his own suggestion, and with Du Yuming's character, I am afraid that he would definitely not withdraw to India until the crisis moment when the whole army was annihilated.
Now Song Yuhang has tasted the butterfly effect, he carefully designed a trap at Tonggu Airport, burned the arrogant and arrogant Japanese 143 Infantry Wing, and led his troops to kill the Japanese in Tonggu for more than ten days, making the Japanese cry wolf.
At the same time, the results of the battle were brilliant, and the side effects were also extremely amazing, the Japanese army actually dispatched an additional sixth division that should have appeared in the Pacific theater to Burma, causing a dangerous situation of 2:1 infantry strength between the enemy and us, trying to reverse the situation, but it became a catalyst for historical events, which made Song Yuhang the most helpless in front of him, obviously he knew history, but he was powerless, and the most painful thing for a soldier was probably nothing more than this.
"I can only do my best and obey the fate of God" Song Yuhang sighed lightly and patted the driver to signal to drive.
At this time, a truck belonging to the field hospital of the expeditionary force headquarters drove by, and the last chubby nurse who was sitting at a glance found Song Yuhang who was standing on the jeep and watching the army march, and she hurriedly shouted to the inside of the car: "Wang Wen, your prince charming is outside, do you want to stop and chat for a while?"
As soon as Wang Wen heard that Song Yuhang was outside, the desire to meet in her heart changed her taste, recalling the ancient times when she sacrificed herself to save each other and took care of her warm life, and she was almost about to knock on her heart, but after the ancient war, Song Yuhang never came to find herself, so she went to the new 22nd Division first in a rage, and because of the general breakthrough, the field hospitals of each division were merged into the military hospital, and Wang Wen was even a little annoyed that she did not stay in the 200th Regiment.
Wang Wen suddenly remembered that yesterday's big carrot was a big carrot, and she was angry that she had prepared gifts for each female soldier, and today he and Suna from the secret phone department had another slander, which made Wang Wen firmly believe that Song Yuhang was definitely not a good bird.
Thinking of this, Wang Wen said lazily: "His public lover Song Yuhang Guan Ben cares about yourself, less there and more trouble" The fat nurse saw Wang Wen's words flickering, her eyes slickering back and forth, so she pouted and snickered: "If you don't step up, your prince charming will be dragged away." ” Wang Wen got up and looked at it, and found that the car at the secret phone office was actually stopped in front of Song Yuhang's car, and then Wang Wen was even more angry, kicking the driver's building and shouting: "Hurry up and drive slower than the ox cart" After the puffed Wang Wen sat down, she scolded Song Yuhang, a bastard and a third-level guy, first inexplicably hugged herself and kissed her, and then chased passionately, and even sacrificed herself to save him, and then there was no more, and then this bastard didn't understand what it meant to be reserved Then she had a slander with Suna, which made Wang Wen even more unacceptable, in her consciousness, the basic thing to do intelligence was a group of bad guys who robbed men and prostitutes, and scolded Song Yuhang for having no vision, Wang Wen began to quietly summarize the problems on her body, is it usually not ladylike enough or gentle enough, she should take the initiative to care about him Wang Wen immediately put this thought aside, and Song Yuhang, that bastard, also deserves Miss Ben's concern How did Wang Wen know that she wronged Song Yuhang and misunderstood Suna, Song Yuhang had looked for her a few times, but they all staggered the opportunity to meet, and Suna originally studied electronic transmission in the United States, and later changed to cipher major because of the needs of the civil war, and entered the gate of the military command, plus she looks very gorgeous and moving, which will naturally make people think of that aspect Otherwise, Suna would not have made a joke about Song Yuhang without any care After handing over the combat order issued by Deputy Commander-in-Chief Du to Song Yuhang, Suna changed her previous style and solemnly saluted and said, "You must return safely" Song Yuhang smiled and replied: "Be loyal to the country" Suna glared at Song Yuhang and said angrily: "Don't say those boring words and come back alive" On the way back, Song Yuhang finally matched Suna with the colonel who was rescued in the rain on the day of the Tonggu breakthrough, and he wondered why he had seized a Japanese military password at that time After arriving at the camp, Song Yuhang approached Xu Tuan with a spring breeze smile and gave him a pair of expensive imported sunglasses.
In the next few days, Xu Tuan never took off his sunglasses day or night, and from time to time sighed that Tuanzao really cared about me, knowing that my eyes were afraid of seeing the light, how could I be willing to take off the sunglasses that were specially given to me After greeting Xu Tu'an, who had sent things indiscriminately in his own name, Song Yuhang summoned the officers above the battalion level, handed over the veterans, officers, and weapons and equipment he had brought back to each battalion for specific distribution, and then began to arrange the battle plan that had been drawn up earlier.
For the second regiment once again honorably received the appreciation of the military seat and assumed the important responsibility of the palace, many officers jokingly lamented that their lives were hard or their luck was not good.
Song Yuhang knew that he still had a few days to spare, and the Japanese army would not press on the expeditionary force until it occupied Myitkyina and Bamo.
Once the Japanese army took Myitkyina and Ba Mo, it meant that the arduous fierce battle was about to begin, for the 2,400 troops at hand, Song Yuhang did not have the capital to fight positional warfare, but he used his good jungle warfare to slow down the speed of the Japanese army's advance, and he was still somewhat sure.
Song Yuhang divided the troops into three columns, deputy regiment commander Cui Zhijun and director of the political department Luo Jiaxiang went to Shi Cheng's first battalion, responsible for making all the more than 2,000 mines and more than 4,000 grenades brought back by Song Yuhang into trick mines.
Song Yuhang himself personally led the regimental guard company and other directly subordinate units to cooperate with the operation of the first battalion.
Because a large number of submachine guns and mortars were scraped from the military headquarters this time, Song Yuhang's generous hand waved and all of them were separated, which made about half of the soldiers of Song Yuhang's 200th Regiment all equipped with submachine guns, a sharp weapon in jungle melee combat.
After assigning the task, Duan Haipeng quietly came to Song Yuhang's tent, he was a little confused about the task he was performing, and he didn't know why he was following the military department, if he wanted to hand over the things to them directly, why bother to cause us to divide the troops in the second division Song Yuhang didn't bother to explain to Duan Haipeng, and he couldn't tell Duan Haipeng the truth, could it be said that the little devils would cut off the back road of our army in a few days, and then we would have to be forced into the primeval forest, thousands of miles without people, and these supplies would not be able to show their preciousness if they were given now.
"You will fight the battle to carry out the order, and I will use good steel on the blade."
Song Yuhang's eyes widened, Duan Haipeng knocked his legs, smiled and saluted, turned around and trotted away
