Chapter 400: Blood Gem (20)

On the third day after Major General Wu Peifu and Political Commissar Yu Cen arrived at the prisoner-of-war camp, Lieutenant Colonel Ma received the transfer order as he wished.

After reading the content of the "report from the Myanmar War Theater Command in Kunming", Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yuteng thought for a moment and immediately sat down and started writing the report.

It is already afternoon now, and even if you start the action immediately, you will have to leave tomorrow. Moreover, Lieutenant Captain Ma Yunteng has no luggage, so it is very easy to pack it up. The summary report was written after arriving at the headquarters, and now it is time to write it. It is time to prepare for resignation tomorrow. If you report at the headquarters, you can advance the time for submitting the report.

The pen tip passed by the paper, either fast or slow, and the frequency changed several times and finally stopped. Lieutenant Colonel Ma looked at the comment he wrote, and he was a little hesitant, ". Comrade Yu Cen's position was firm, his thinking was clear, and he was quick to get started with prisoners of war camp work. Major General Wu Peifu had a thorough understanding of the psychology of the British and Indian army. Lieutenant Colonel Ma did not think there was any problem with his description of Political Comrade Cen. Since he was a 'comrade', he was naturally a member of the Civilized Party and belonged to the same political organization. Although Major General Wu Peifu was a quarantine general recognized by the National Defense Forces, Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yunteng felt that his description seemed a bit inappropriate.

Looking back on the experiences of the past three days, Lieutenant Colonel Ma felt that Major General Wu Peifu himself did have a sense of family and country, and put forward many useful suggestions and opinions in management, but this person could not be called a 'comrade'. After careful consideration, Lieutenant Colonel Ma crossed out the above comments about Wu Peifu and continued to write, 'Major General Wu Peifu was born in the old Chinese army and had a deeper understanding of the composition characteristics and internal relations of the old army. The British and Indian army's likelihood is very different from the organizational model of the old Chinese army.

However, the internal interest relationship is similar to that of the old Chinese army. Major General Wu Peifu could feel the similarities and differences, and put forward many suggestions and commented on the two most important people. The others were all business work descriptions. Lieutenant Colonel Ma was writing like a wind, and at around 9 o'clock in the evening, he finished several reports. The next morning, Lieutenant Colonel Ma transferred the order to Colonel Yu Cen, who was in charge of personnel. Yu Cen had already known that he was going to take over Lieutenant Colonel Ma's work, so he began to prepare for the handover.

At around 3 pm, Major General Wu Peifu, Director of the Management Office of the Prisoners of War Camp, and Political Commissar Yu Cen, sent away former Director Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yunteng and officially took over the prisoner of war camp. Lieutenant Colonel Ma hurried to the headquarters. At this time, the war was in progress and the headquarters was in operation 24 hours a day. At around 7 pm, it was not dark, Lieutenant Colonel Ma rushed to the headquarters and submitted an order. At 10 pm that day, the procedures were basically completed, and Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yunteng officially returned to his Xinnian combat unit.

There were also old comrades in the headquarters, one of whom happened to be on night shift. When he saw Ma Yunteng, he heard that he had come back and was quite happy. After chatting for a while, Ma Yunteng asked if he could apply for the combat force. The old comrades whispered: "Don't be anxious, the attack has temporarily stopped now. The troops will adjust the deployment."

"What happened to the front line?" Ma Yunteng asked quickly.

The old comrade thought about it and did not answer immediately. Ma Yunteng was worried that his old comrade would not explain, but he heard his old comrade answer: "Myanmar has entered the rainy season, and the traffic is not smooth. The rivers there may have exploded due to heavy rain. As the former director of the POW camp management office, after interrogating prisoners of war, Ma Yunteng actually knew the progress of the war in a timely manner. The content of the knowledge was rich. I thought it was the British army that launched a large army counterattack, but I didn't expect it to be the rainy season. Ma Yunteng was stunned, but after a moment, he felt it was completely reasonable.

The temperature in Myanmar does not change much throughout the year. The average temperature in the coldest month (January) is 20℃-25℃; the average temperature in the hottest month (April and May) is 25℃-30℃. The temperatures in various places are not much different year.

Due to the influence of the monsoon, Myanmar does not divide the seasons by the 'spring, summer, autumn and winter' seasons, but divides the whole year into hot seasons (March to mid-May), rainy seasons (mid-May to October), and cool seasons (November to February of the following year).

It is June now, and Myanmar has entered the rainy season. The southern part of Myanmar is relatively flat, with high mountains and dense forests in the north. It is also rainy season. The rainy season in the south is April to September, and the rainy season in the north is June to September. There is a difference of 2 or 3 months. The end of the rainy season is early in the north and late in the south, and the difference between the front and back is only about 20 days.

Looking back on this knowledge, Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yuteng quickly judged that from June 24 to September 1, there are about 70 days to prepare for the cold season battle in Myanmar.

Seeing that Lieutenant Colonel Ma Yuteng's expression became calm, his old comrades advised Ma Yuteng to rest first. Ma Yuteng's mood was calm at this time. It is the basic common sense of modern army not to start a large-scale war when mountain torrents may break out at any time.

However, making full use of the 70-day preparation period to prepare for the next large-scale war is also a basic common sense for modern military.

I had some battles to fight, but when I thought of this, Lieutenant Colonel Ma was even more calm and went to the dormitory to rest with the expectation of beating the British in the future.

The military forces of the great powers in the world are not the only ones in the Republic of China Defense Forces. As the warring party, Britain, Japan, as a semi-quasi-alliance of Britain, France, which wants to joke about Britain, the Netherlands, which is worried about chain attacks in Southeast Asian colonies, and the United States, which is not satisfied with the current British order. Germany, which is happy to see Britain suffer losses, and the Soviet Union, which is happy to see Britain go to war with China, all know that after this not long period of truce, the war will surely rekindle with double intensity.

The rainy season in most parts of Japan is from mid-June to mid-July. Because the weather is not suitable, the Japanese Army New Technology Training Bureau also suspended training this month. Director of the Training Bureau, Ishihara Kanir finally had some time of his own.

Ishihara originally wanted to promote the activities of the Japanese Future Society at this time, but unexpectedly, he was invited by Nishinoji to provide strategic judgments to the veteran, and then he was called to the General Staff Headquarters for strategic deduction.

Nishiyuanji had limited understanding of modern warfare, and Ishihara could still explain patiently. Facing the many guys in the General Staff Headquarters, Ishihara was too lazy to speak. The General Staff Headquarters' faces were not good-looking, but they had to say something that everyone knew. "The Chinese Defense Forces chose a very suitable combat time and used the two months before the rainy season to quickly advance, and seized most of the former Myanmar..."

Ishihara felt that the trash at the General Staff did not understand strategy at all, so she simply remembered the incident of the Japanese Future Society.

In a year, all the middle and lower-level Japanese Army officers basically participated in new technology training. The so-called "new technology" is the response and combat ideas for the Chinese National Defense Forces' army tactics. As the director of the Training Bureau, Ishihara, in addition to telling this part of his knowledge, also taught his ideas on new army tactics to Japanese middle and lower-level Japanese officers.

Due to the stubborn and conservative atmosphere in the Japanese army, many Japanese middle and lower-level officers believed that the infantry squad platoon tactics were the squad interspersed encirclement tactics adopted by Japan during the Japanese-Shenzhen War and the Russo-Japanese War. After being criticized by Ishihara, a considerable number of Japanese middle and lower-level officers were actually dissatisfied. They did not directly refute because of the strict ranks in the Japanese army.

But who is Ishihara? How could a guy who has been considered a thorn since his youth military academy? How could he not understand the thoughts of these guys? So Ishihara organized targeted exercises and used the Chinese army infantry platoon tactics learned in the war to teach those Japanese troops a lesson.

Although most of these elm-headed men did not really master the infantry squad and platoon tactics, at least after they failed many times, they had to understand that infantry tactics had undergone tremendous changes, and the Japanese army was defeated by such changes. This made Ishihara Kanir gain a great reputation among middle and lower-level officers.

Ishihara didn't care about such a reputation. What he cared about was that after training, young officers who were willing to maintain reform were found in various troops. Although the Japanese government tried its best to alleviate the decline of Japan's economy and the Japanese army also tried to improve combat effectiveness by promoting new military technologies, none of these could save Japan.

Young officers who have joined the Japan Future Society may not have fully learned the new army tactics, but they have fully felt the pain of the economic downturn. Urban workers are unemployed in large quantities, rural rents are increasing, and loan interest for usury people also increase. However, in order to maintain production or just to maintain the food for life, the poor have to borrow. In order to borrow, they have to mortgage their last property. Some officers' sisters are sold to brothels, or even to brothels in Nanyang.

Since Japan did not cede land and pay compensation after the Sino-Japanese armistice, this tragic situation must not be caused by China's exploitation. The painful young officers had the same idea. There must be bad people in Japan, and it was these bad people that led to the current economic tragic situation.

Some forces have already wanted to use this idea. In order to win precious young officers, the Future Society has made every effort to educate the young officers, trying to make them understand the current situation in Japan. Such a tug-of-war is going on in secret. In order to win the next reform, many of the members of the Future Society of Japan have to expose themselves and go to the Imperial Task Sect to promote and tell the reasons for the current situation.
