"There is no definite news yet, but there will inevitably be a period of delay from Mongolia to Gansu and forwarding from Gansu to Kunming during this period. If everything goes well on the front line, maybe the Second Northern Army of the North has now begun to attack Ulaanbaatar. ()" Yin Chengyan said speculated.

"Anyway, we must report the news from the Second Northern Army. You will send a telegram later to explain my meaning clearly. If we don't know their progress, we cannot discuss whether there is a possibility of attacking Tsarist Russia. Don't delay the progress. Since the Sino-Japanese War has ended, we must concentrate more resources to deal with other battlefields." Wu Shaoting said instructed.

"Yes, I will order the communications office later."

Afterwards, the meeting discussed the situation of the South Asian War. The War Situation Bureau analyzed the current situation in the entire South Asian battlefield. The progress of the war in Myanmar was very slow, but fortunately everything was developing in a favorable direction. It was mainly because the Myanmar army was too cautious on the battlefield. Whether it was the Restoration Army led by Po Gang or the Burmese old army loyal to British India, the Burmese people's war literacy and awareness were very backward, and often a small-scale battle of thousands of people could take more than half a month.

The 24th Division, which is responsible for Myanmar's military affairs, has pushed the front line to Taungchi, but because of its limited military strength, it has to assist the Po Gang Rebel Army in expanding its troops and consolidating the occupied areas, so it still seems very slow overall.

In the Sikkim region where ** and India border, India has gathered about 90,000 troops in the past three months. Of course, these 90,000 people are not all Indians, among which there are troops recruited from Nepal and Bangladesh. Not only that, these troops are not all regular troops, at least one quarter of them are temporary militias.

The 21st and 23rd Divisions have tried to launch three attacks, but due to geographical reasons and huge disparity in force, all of these three attacks ended in failure, and even caused certain losses. Faced with such a situation, the two divisions had to hold their troops and maintain a confrontation with the enemies of Sikkim.

It is precisely because of the mixed races of these 90,000 troops and uneven quality, even if the troops are twice as powerful as the Chinese team, they still dare not trade and launch a counterattack. What's more, the British Indian government cannot afford the huge military expenditure at present. The European battlefield is a burden, the Siam battlefield is a burden, and the Myanmar side is another burden. If the war is rashly expanded and upgraded, it will only increase the burden.

As of now, the main battlefield in South Asia is still in Dewudun, Siam.

As the French Legion retreated from North Korea, the Legion retained about 50,000 new forces to arrive in Siam, and the pressure on the battlefield of Dewudun was increasing. Although the French Legion was still in the rectification stage of the entire army and did not immediately enter the battle of Dewudun, the impact of this force cannot be ignored.

The Siamese army in Dewudun was angry because of the arrival of reinforcements, while the Chinese team gradually revealed a sense of distress due to the long-term dilemma of the battlefield in Dewudun. After all, fighting all the way from Vietnam was almost smooth and smooth. When they suddenly encountered obstacles, they were naturally traumatized.

Hearing this, Wu Shaoting pondered for a moment, then said: "We have two divisions in Vietnam, the 21st and 25th Divisions. We used to do the Vietnamese aftermath, so we stayed in Hanoi and Hue. Now the French Legion has gone south. If there is no special arrangement in Vietnam, we can draw a division to reinforce to Dewudun."

He Fuguang nodded slightly and said, "Our South Asian Theater Command has also made this consideration and decided to add the 21st Division to Dewudun. But even so, our troops in Dewudun are only a little more than the Siamese army. Once the French army comes to support it, there will still be more than us."

Gu Pinzhen sighed and said, "As the attacking side, our troops should be twice as many as the defenders. Although in terms of combat effectiveness and military equipment, the Siam army is not as good as our army, if we want to make progress in Dewudun as soon as possible, military strength is still a key factor."

Wu Shaoting asked: "How is the preparations for the Second Corps of the Continental Bridge?"

He Fuguang said: "Shi Lanfeng's headquarters had just moved to Hanoi seven days ago. At present, the grassroots construction of the Second Corps of the Continental Bridge has been completed, but some officers and soldiers are still being allocated and there are some lack of material preparations. But in general, they will definitely be ready within the expected time."

Wu Shaoting pondered for a moment. Of course, he knew that the number of troops as the attacking side must have an advantage. Even if the Second Corps of the Continent Bridge was put into operation, the total strength would still be inferior to that of the local government when the French Legion was rectified. In fact, this was reflected during the Sino-Japanese War. In the end, if it were not for the National Defense Forces' reinforcements, the attacking side would definitely not be ideal.

However, the National Defense Force first experienced the Qingdao War and had just participated in the Liaodong War not long ago. The soldiers of the entire army needed some time to rest. Even the elite troops should pay attention to maintenance. What's more, at this time, the National Defense Force was drastic to transfer from the north to the south. The transportation costs alone were enough to set up a continental bridge regiment, which was not enough to worry about time.

"How much is the gap left for next year's defense budget now?" After taking a deep breath, Wu Shaoting asked in a serious tone.

Since entering a state of war, China's defense budget has been overspending for more than a year. However, this is pretty good. Compared with other countries in the European War, especially Serbia and Bulgaria, countries with weak national strength, I am afraid that military expenditure has exceeded more than several years.

"There is still a $15 million gap, but it will be a bit difficult if you want to take out this money." Yin Chengyan replied while looking through the text information.

"I plan to prepare two more troops, the Second Mountain Division and the Third Continental Bridge Corps." Wu Shaoting said seriously.

"Head of the People's Republic of China, but the Second Corps of the Continental Bridge has occupied all the weapons and ammunition in our stock. Two more troops are set up, and the weapons and equipment are not enough. Even if we draw troops and resources from local troops, most of the military resources in our southern Chinese provinces have long been placed on the South Asian battlefield. Once a new force is planned to build a new force, the weapons and equipment are still not enough." A defense officer said helplessly.

"This Sino-Japanese War, North Korea seized a lot of Japanese weapons and ammunition, and can be transported first." Wu Shaoting said slowly. Although doing so will cause the logistics supply of South Asia battlefields to become more and more complex, after all, there are too many gun types, but the war has reached such a point. If we cannot gain an advantage as soon as possible, the price we have to pay will be far greater than the logistics pressure.

"First of the People, is this really necessary? This may cause..."

"Since you have already said that the only problem now is the military force, then this is necessary. Of course, I know that losing the standardization of weapons and equipment will cause a logistical burden, but Vietnam, Khmer, and Laos have civilians who can requisition it. At present, we can only use this extensive method to fill the disadvantages of the battlefield." Wu Shaoting said loudly.

When everyone heard this, they naturally did not dare to say anything else. Think about what the Head of State said was right. Logistical pressure could be solved, but if the troops were insufficient, the problem of the South Asian War could not be solved.

The venue stopped for a moment, and then He Fuguang asked, "First of the People's Republic of China, who will give these two troops to prepare?"

Wu Shaoting pondered for a moment, then quickly said: "The second ** Mountain graduates from Huangpu Phase I. The officers from the second phase should be selected. It is best to have further studies at the National Defense University. As for the Third Corps of the Mainland Bridge, Wang Lingji from Sichuan took over, the soldiers were transferred from his old Sichuan subordinates and Xiong Jinfan's subordinates."

The adjutants quickly recorded Wu Shaoting's words and went to notify him after the meeting was over.

Everyone looked at each other. Although they felt that this was not a perfect solution, the head of state had decided, and the other was that there was no other way for the time being, so they had to silently agree with this plan.

Wu Shaoting made some other emphasis on the fact that whether it is the Second ** Mountain Division or the Third Continental Bridge Corps, all preparations must be done quickly and quickly. Since soldiers can draw ready-made soldiers, there is no need to train again, as long as the people are fully allocated. In short, the South Asian War must make a breakthrough as soon as possible. This is not only to break the deadlock, but also to curb the enemy's confidence gradually recovering and gain more international political weight for China.
