Chapter 1503: It’s Not Good to Do It During the Day
Wanding fell and panic spread across the border.
The Burma Road fell into unprecedented chaos.
Everywhere were defeated soldiers retreating from the front lines.
As well as government agencies and civilians who were evacuated urgently.
There are also overseas Chinese and refugees from Myanmar who have moved to the mainland with their elderly and children.
The unmovable supplies along the Burma Road were burning fiercely.
The enemy and our side were intertwined, and the sound of explosions from far and near was endless.
The Japanese planes bombed crazily, creating the impression that a large number of troops were approaching.
Xiang Chu looked up into the sky and shook his head. "The Japanese are just bluffing, but the Nationalist army is terrified and is determined to flee. They will definitely leave a lot of supplies for the Japanese. If we fight to the death, the Japanese will definitely not be able to enter Yunnan."
Xiao Liu asked with a smile, "Boss! The longer the enemy's front line stretches, the more chances we have, right?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Of course! Victory will always belong to us, but it will also require huge sacrifices."
Xiaoliu said bitterly, "We must also charge into the Japanese island and chop off the heads of those bad guys."
There are many abandoned trucks on the side of the road.
Xiang Chu ordered, "Xiao Liu! Pull over and let's change cars."
"Yes!"
Xiaoliu hurriedly took the order.
Xiang Chu jumped out of the car and checked the truck, and found that it was intact.
Liu Zhengxiong and others rushed over and asked in confusion:
"Chief! Our tricycles and bicycles are in good condition. Why do we need to change them?"
Xiang Chu said angrily, "These tricycles and bicycles belong to the 56th Division's Engineering Corps Road Maintenance Team. If we ride over there, wouldn't it be obvious to them that we killed the road maintenance team?"
Liu Zhengxiong slapped his forehead and said with a wry smile, "Why didn't I think of that? Then change the car quickly."
Xiang Chu ordered: "Brothers! Hide the tricycles and bicycles and switch to trucks."
"Yes!"
Everyone accepted the order in unison.
Xiang Chu took out the map and examined it carefully, then ordered, "Fugui! Call the Madam and tell the Allied Command to send elite troops to the Nu River to stop the Japanese and blow up the bridge over the Nu River immediately."
"Yes!"
Ma Fugui hurriedly accepted the order.
Kunming, Allied Command Post.
Telegrams came in like snowflakes and the phone rang non-stop.
The front line suffered a crushing defeat and the situation was out of control.
Lin Wei, the head of the General Staff, reported: "Sir! Zhefang has been occupied by the enemy. The troops of the 56th Division, which was encircling and annihilating the enemy, are afraid of being surrounded by the enemy. They have taken the initiative to withdraw and begin a tiered defense."
Commander Luo angrily said, "The Burma Road has been cut off, how can we be surrounded?"
Lin Wei reminded: "But Zhefang has already fallen, and the retreat has been cut off."
At this time, Xie Lan rushed into the command post and handed the telegram to Commander Luo.
Commander Luo finished reading and shook his head, saying, "We only managed to save half of the Japanese regiment. Our army missed the golden opportunity to annihilate the Japanese 56th Division. Alas!"
Xie Lan warned, "Sir! There are still a large number of devils disguised as civilians, blending in with the fleeing people and attacking inland. They said that as a precaution, it is best to destroy the bridge over the Nu River and send the main force to defend the Nu River."
Commander Luo ordered, "Thank you, Major! Call all units, dispatch military police, set up more sentries, and strictly prevent disguised Japanese from sneaking in. Defend the Japanese with all your might, and do not retreat without resistance. Those who disobey this order will be subject to military law."
"Yes!"
Xie Lan hurriedly accepted the order.
Lin Wei suggested, "Sir! Why not send the 36th Division directly to Nujiang to stop the Japanese? And order the Engineer Commander-in-Chief, Ma Chongliu, to blow up the Huitong Bridge."
Commander Luo nodded and said, "Okay! Notify them immediately."
"Yes!"
Lin Wei hurriedly accepted the order.
Western Yunnan, Zhafang Town.
Before retreating, the defenders set fire to the stockpiled supplies, but the fire was put out by the Japanese.
Doihara Kan'er obtained a large amount of supplies and was very happy.
He said with a smile: "Yoshi! If we can replenish our supplies while fighting like this, we can easily reach Chongqing."
Doihara Suzuko suggested, "Uncle! Our troops have been replenished and we should continue to advance."
Doihara Kan'er picked up the telescope, looked towards the west, and nodded:
"Well! The 56th Division is coming. We can leave now. It's a pity that there are so many supplies."
Doihara Kan'ei was extremely greedy and didn't want to leave a single grain of food for others.
Doihara Suzuko said angrily, "Uncle! A small Chinese town has so much supplies stored. If it were a county town, there would definitely be even more. Let's go quickly."
Doihara Xianer nodded and said, "Yoshi! Let's go rob Mangshi."
"Report!"
The Japanese radio operator ran over and reported loudly:
"Captain! Captain Takahashi has called. They've broken through several Chinese blockades and are nearing Mangshi. They're engaging an enemy force several times their size. Request immediate reinforcements."
Doihara Kan'er ordered, "Radio operator! Call Isogai Muto and have him immediately lead his battalion and coordinate with Takahashi's battalion to attack Mangshi."
"Hello!"
The Japanese radio operator bowed and accepted the order.
Doihara Kan'er loudly ordered:
"Suzuko! Nishiemon! Gather the troops and march quickly to Mangshi."
"Hello!"
Doihara Suzuko and Ninagawa Nishiemon hurriedly received the order.
Mangshi, eastern suburbs jungle.
Isotani Wudi was leading his troops marching eastward.
Xiao Qi received the message and caught up with him to report:
"Captain! The commander of the regiment called and asked us to cooperate with Gaoqiao Battalion to attack Mangshi."
Isogai Wudi smiled mysteriously and said, "Yoshi! Call the regiment commander and our army will attack immediately."
"Hello!"
Xiao Qi bowed and accepted the order.
He knew that Isotani Mudi was deceiving Doihara Kan'er again.
The Japanese soldier didn't know what Isotani Wudi was thinking, so he lay down on the ground to rest.
Isogai Wudi shouted, "Everyone listen! Keep speeding up!"
"what?!"
The Japanese soldiers looked at each other in confusion.
An old soldier asked, "Captain! Didn't you just say you wanted to cooperate with Gaoqiao's battalion to attack Mangshi?"
"Snapped!"
Isogai Wudi slapped him hard and shouted, "This captain will let Gaoqiao's battalion fight first, and lead you to capture Baoshan and strive for a greater victory. Make a quick march! Move out."
"Hello!"
The devils obeyed the order reluctantly.
The beaten veteran clenched the gun in his hand and stared at Isotani Wudi with gritted teeth, wishing he could kill him.
Xiao Qi walked up to him and whispered, "Ito-kun! It's not good to take action during the day."
The veteran nodded and said, "Yamada-kun! Thanks for the reminder."
To the west of Mangshi, Takahashi Xiaozheng led a large group of Japanese soldiers and rushed over.
He shouted, "Warriors of the Empire! The Chinese army is vulnerable. The Isogai Battalion will come to reinforce us. We will march into Mangshi and divide up the property and the beautiful girls. Kill!"
"kill!"
The Japanese soldiers roared loudly and rushed towards Mangshi.
They thought that as long as they launched a wave of attack, the defenders of Mangshi would collapse.
Little did they know that Commander Luo had already issued an order and the defenders dared not retreat without fighting.
Moreover, there were a large number of scattered troops of the retreating expeditionary force in Mangshi.
The highest-ranking official was Lieutenant General Ma Chongliu, commander-in-chief of the engineers, who was preparing to march westward.
Lieutenant General Ma saw that there were only a few hundred devils charging and shouted:
"Brothers! The devils are a small force. Let's destroy them together. Kill!"
"kill!"
The troops in the city roared loudly and fought desperately to stop the Japs.
"Da Da! Boom!"
Machine guns and mortars fired at the Japanese soldiers who were charging madly.
A large number of Japanese soldiers were killed, and the rest lay on the ground, looking confused.
They never expected that they would encounter resistance in the small city of Mangshi.
