In fact, Zhang Chi would rather the Japanese army continue to fight like this.●⌒

If you fight like this, although the engineers will not be able to rest due to harassment by the Japanese army, it is better than being rushed up by the Japanese army with ammunition and food. And it will arrive at dawn 200, so it is best for the Japanese devils to delay time like this.

Of course, Zhang Chi knew that things would never be so simple... The reason why the Japanese army dared to fight so slowly was that they knew that the 200th Division was blocked and did not arrive so quickly. Even the Japanese army knew that there were no Chinese reinforcements to rush to Tangji in other directions, so they dared to implement the exhausted plan calmly.

Zhang Chi felt helpless about this. The Japanese army was much more meticulous in intelligence than the Expeditionary Force.

Of course, there are objective reasons for this. For example, the Japanese army cheated and exploited the hatred and desire independence of the Burmese people towards the British army, making it easy for the Japanese army to obtain intelligence from the Burmese people.

But there are also subjective reasons. For example, before the war started, the Japanese army sent a large number of plainclothes to collect intelligence in Myanmar. For example, the Japanese army also knew to use the faith of the Burmese people to create a Bomojo to fool the Burmese people. This shows that the Japanese army attaches great importance to intelligence work and does it very carefully.

On the contrary, although the Chinese team also has good resources, such as the consent and assistance of the British army. Although this is an apparent consent, although the British army is even dragging their backs, if China is foreseeable, it can be done like the Japanese army before the war... How could it make the Expeditionary Force darken their eyes after entering Myanmar, and the maps they have been drawn for decades and can't find a place to find. Even if they have several divisions of the Japanese army participating in the battle, they don't even know where they are.

These problems are actually very easy to solve. You only need to send a few plainclothes and bring a few radio stations to mix with overseas Chinese and maintain contact with the expeditionary forces in various important places and report the Japanese offensive dynamics at any time, but the Chinese team did not do this.

Perhaps it was because the Chinese team had always thought that the British army would provide them with this information, or they took it for granted that the Chinese team was here to help the Burmese people drive away the Japanese invaders, so the Burmese people would also provide this information for the Expeditionary Force... But there is no possibility of war. The fact is that neither the British nor the Burmese people provided any valuable information. Not only did they not provide ulterior motives to provide a lot of false information to interfere with the strategic judgment of the senior executives of the Expeditionary Force.

As the saying goes, "Know yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." This sentence refers to the importance of intelligence. Because only by clearly knowing the situation of oneself and the enemy can we formulate corresponding and reasonable combat plans in a targeted manner.

Otherwise, there will be an unrealized battle between the ancients like the top leaders of the Expeditionary Force. After the unrealized battle between the ancients, another unrealized battle between the Mandalay. After the unrealized battle between the Mandalay, another unrealized battle between the Mandalay... None of these three battles can be fought, and in the end they are forced to give up for one reason or another.

From this point of view, the Chinese Expeditionary Force seemed to be doomed to fail from the beginning.

Fortunately, Zhang Chi gave enough detailed information at a critical moment to find some opportunity to block the 56th Division of the Japanese Army in Tangji.

However, Zhang Chi was not sure if this change would be the same as before... He thought he could change history, but it always returned to the original track of history for one reason or another.

Zhang Chi was also helpless about this. As the saying goes, "Planning is for others, and success is for heaven." He can only say that he is doing his best!

"Platform leader!" Xiao Zhejiang, who was on guard at this time, whispered to Zhang Chi a few meters away: "The Japanese are moving!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi quickly turned over and put the gun on the trench. When he looked down through the sniper lens, he saw several tanks rumbling and a team of Japanese slowly approaching the 159 Highland.

Zhang Chi felt a little surprised when he saw this scene... According to the Japanese attack habits, they would fire a few minutes of artillery fire before launching a charge, so why did they come up now without **? And this time, the number of people seemed to be quite large, with at least two squadrons having more than 300 people.

"Flag!" Zhang Chi shouted.

With a "Teng!", a flare rose to the sky and illuminated the murderous Japanese army at the foot of the mountain.

The Japanese army did not even look up and hid behind the tanks to prepare... This made Zhang Chi feel something even more wrong. The Japanese army was more than 400 meters away from the defense line of the Engineering Corps. Although the firepower of the Engineering Corps could reach the Japanese army at this distance, they generally would not start fighting at this distance based on the hit rate. The Japanese army was also very clear about this, so they used to trot forward all the way at such a distance.

But now... they squatted behind the tank and did not move, as if waiting for something.

What are they waiting for?

Then Zhang Chi found a Japanese soldier on his waist in the sniper lens... When he saw it carefully, Zhang Chi was shocked. It was a gas mask!

After feeling the wind direction at this time, Zhang Chi shouted: "No, the Japanese want to fight the poison gas bomb!"

"Poison gas bomb?" The soldiers couldn't help but change their faces when they heard this.

Zhang Chi was not wrong, Watanabe Masao wanted to use poison gas bombs.

You should know that the 56th Division is a unit that needs to be interspersed into Lashio, which can almost determine the outcome of the entire Myanmar battlefield. When performing such a task, it is conceivable that you may encounter hard nails on the road... In order to quickly pull out these hard nails, the 56th Division prepared dozens of poison gas bombs.

However, there are some restrictions when using the poison gas bomb. For example, the wind direction was blown towards the Japanese army before. In this case, if the poison gas bomb is fired, the mountain wind will blow towards the Japanese army as soon as it blows.

So Masao Watanabe had to wait. While waiting, he also asked the 56th Division to rest for a while and replenish some ammunition.

This is also the reason why the Japanese army's attack was not high and the number of people was relatively large.

If you want to fight poison gas cannons, there is no need to waste shells. At the same time, after the poison gas cannons are shot, the high ground is determined to win... It is just to rush up and deal with the middle-aged people who were poisoned to the ground one by one. These more than 300 people were sent to occupy the 159th and 311th high ground respectively.
