Chapter 6 Distress

Thank you for having a drink. Love for a thousand years and the rewards from several classmates Tie Xiaozhu.

*******

Tanaka Mashi habitually held his chin and looked at the battlefield situation chart hanging in front of him with satisfaction.

They had never encountered such a tenacious resistance since entering Myanmar. For this reason, the division commander also ordered Akukuan Nakagawa, who was ineffective in attacking, to give thanks to the emperor.

But in fact, Tanaka Mashi understands in his heart, and others understand in his heart that this is not because Nakagawa Jun’s attack is not strong, but because the resistance encountered by the Imperial Army this time was too tenacious.

Of course, there is a reason why the division commander will do this, that is, use Nakagawa's death to urge others to fight to the death to launch an attack on the Chinese stationed in Tonggu.

No one expected that the Chinese army would enter Myanmar so quickly and have such strong combat effectiveness!

Thinking of this, Tanaka Mashi couldn't help but frown.

This battle can be said to be the British who helped the Imperial Army a great favor, otherwise the battle might be even more difficult.

According to the information obtained, Tanaka Mashi knew that the British were reluctant to give up the colony they occupied until the last moment, or that the British were worried that after the Chinese Expeditionary Force entered Myanmar, they would rely on them to seize the interests of the colony. In Chinese, that is, "It is easy to ask God but difficult to send God."

Therefore, the stupid British people never allowed the Chinese Expeditionary Force to enter Myanmar. It was not until the Imperial Army conquered Maulhamm that they had to let the Chinese Expeditionary Force come to save their lives due to the situation.

But it was too late at this time. Tanaka Mashi was very clear: the guns and bullets of the Chinese army were not common with the British army, which would cause the Chinese army to be unable to use the ammunition accumulated by the British, which means that the Chinese army must obtain supplies from the distant China, while there is only one highway between China and Myanmar, which is also responsible for the task of transfusion of blood to China in China...

It is precisely because of this that the division commander always thought that even if the Chinese army could arrive in time at this time, it would not be a problem.

But unexpectedly, the division commander soon encountered a hard nail, and the Chinese soldiers of ancient times blocked them for three days, and there was no hope of conquering them.

Therefore, it is better to say that Nakagawa Jun died because of his poor attack, but rather that he died because of the division commander's underestimation.

It’s a pity that Nakagawa Jun is an excellent soldier and a loyal soldier of the Great Japanese Empire, but he died under his own knife inexplicably.

Fortunately, the Imperial Army has the help of Burmese people.

Tanaka Mashi couldn't help but smile.

These ridiculous Burmese people really thought that the Imperial Army was here to rescue them from the enslavement of the British, so they spontaneously organized the Burmese Independence Volunteers to assist the Imperial Army in combat, and even promoted the Imperial Army. Now even the Burmese people will lead the way to provide intelligence and supplies for the Imperial Army.

Just like now, with the help of the Burmese people, more than a thousand people led by Tanaka Mashi bypassed Tonggujier and easily occupied Kanyaka Airport.

It was only a matter of time before it could be won. Tanaka Mashi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief... It was really hard for him to imagine what kind of situation would be if Tonggu had not won and Chinese soldiers came to gather in Tonggu.

The overall terrain of Myanmar is somewhat similar to standing diamonds, with wide middle and narrow ends, while the two ends are in the middle of the transition from narrow to wide below.

The Chinese obviously have realized this long ago. If the Imperial Army cannot quickly take down Tonggu and fall into a stalemate with the Chinese army, then the Imperial Army can only operate in the narrow second half, while the Chinese army is operating in the broad middle. At that time, even if the Imperial Army has aircraft and cannons, it will probably not have much results.

Fortunately, all this did not happen, as long as you keep the airport...

"Report to the Master!" At this time, a correspondent rushed in and reported: "I just received a telegram from Kyono, and Tunnel No. 3 was blown up by Chinese soldiers..."

"What?"

Tanaka Mashi couldn't help but change his face. As the captain, he certainly knew what the tunnel was bombed to them who were stationed at the airport.

"Bastard!" Tanaka Mashi couldn't help but curse: "How could Kyono's rice bucket make the Chinese blow up the tunnel?!"

"Report to the Master!" The communications soldier replied carefully: "Listen to Kyono's report, it seems that the Chinese people buried the explosives in the tunnel in advance. Kyono was busy constructing fortifications and transporting supplies, but he didn't find it..."

"So that's how it is!" Tanaka Mashi smashed his fist hard on the table: "Did the Chinese have prepared for it?"

"The Grandpa means..." Takachi Ishida asked.

Ishida Kochi is the deputy captain of the third brigade of the 144th Regiment. He is both Tanaka Mashi's right-hand man and the think tank of the third brigade. He proposed the plan to bypass the front line of Tonggu to attack the airport this time.

"Ishida-kun!" said Tanaka Mashi: "It seems that the Chinese are smarter than we think. If they can lay explosives in the tunnel in advance, it means they are likely to find out in advance that we are going to attack the airport. This time, they intend to let us in!"

"Colonel said this is a trap for the Chinese?" Ishida Takachi couldn't help but gasp, but then expressed doubts: "Is the Chinese so smart?!"

"Otherwise, how do you explain the explosives buried in the tunnel?" Tanaka Mashi asked back: "Also, don't you think the Chinese army has retreated too quickly? It's completely different from their tenacious resistance on the front line of the ancient times!"

After Tanaka Mashi said this, Ishida also felt that it was too easy to capture the airport.

"It's obvious!" said Tanaka Mashi: "This is the Chinese trick, and the purpose is to put us in and trap us in this airport without any danger."

"What should we do now?" Ishida Kochi asked: "Will you enter the jungle to seize the high ground?"

Tanaka Mashi looked at the map and thought for a while, then shook his head firmly and said, "No, if we retreat into the jungle, Tong Gu will receive reinforcements from other Chinese troops, which will make our army's next battle more difficult and may even affect the overall plan. Only when we guard the airport can we end the battle in the shortest time!"

"So..." Then Tanaka Mashi issued an order: "Continue to stick to the airport and order Kyono to open a supply line as fast as possible, and be sure to send ammunition to the airport in the shortest time!"
