Lost and Spy

Chapter 1965 The first battle of the main force
On March 3 and 16, the Japanese army continued to bomb Tonggu.

For the first time, the people of Tonggu really felt the horror of war.

In addition to the overseas Chinese support team, a large number of civilians in the city began to leave the city ravaged by war.

The British run the fastest.

At that speed, I am afraid that even the plane can only sigh in awe.

The 1st Division of the British-Burmese Army, the 63rd Brigade of the British-Australian Army, and the 7th British Armored Brigade all began to retreat to India.

The most ridiculous thing is that even the 17th Division of the British and Indian Army, which had just arrived in Myanmar, received an order to retreat towards India before seeing what the Japanese looked like.

Tonggu was completely handed over to the 200th Division for defense.

Dai Anlan's order is very simple:
Stick to Tonggu and not allow a step back, laying a solid foundation for the battle with Tonggu.

At this time, Meng Shaoyuan also did a few things.

One is that he ordered the military command agents who arrived in Tonggu to carry out frequent activities to investigate the actions of the Japanese army.

Secondly, he issued an order that the Seven Sisters of the Military Command, except for Yao Shuang who stayed by his side to send the telegram, all the others evacuated to Meimiao to wait for the order.

Of course, these female military agents were not happy.

Finally got a chance to fight the enemy and serve the country. The Japanese hadn't arrived in Tonggu yet, so why did he let himself retreat?
However, Meng Shaoyuan's order cannot be disputed at all.

He knew very well that the defense of Tonggu was fierce. If these girls fell into the hands of the Japanese, it would be troublesome.

Life is better than death.

So, in the end, Meng Shaoyuan directly gave the order to die, and these female military agents accepted it reluctantly.

The last thing Meng Shaoyuan did was to install explosives at several points in Tonggu.

Li Zhifeng, the "toilet supervisor" was personally responsible for this matter.

Li Zhifeng has been with Meng Shaoyuan for such a long time, of course he knows what the chief's purpose is,

First, it was used for street fighting.

Secondly, I am afraid it is also preparing for the retreat.

The officer seems to think that Tonggu will definitely fall?

"Shi Yongfu, Cao Ruicheng."

"To!"

Li Zhifeng said to the two people solemnly: "Once you enter the street fighting, you will not leave me an inch, sir."

"understand!"

There's something weird about both of them.

Before, it was Li Zhifeng who personally protected the chief.

Li Zhifeng seemed to see their doubts: "Sir, he usually has a playful smile on his face, but once he really fights, he will really fight with his life.

After entering the street fighting, I was responsible for covering the flanks. If there was a critical situation, I would be responsible for attracting the firepower of the Japanese army. "

The two suddenly realized.

Shi Yongfu said with a smirk: "I mean Captain Li, this officer usually doesn't make you wear less shoes, it's good of you, you really do your best."

Li Zhifeng was stunned for a while, and then sighed: "I wear too many small shoes, and suddenly no one wears them for you, you really won't get used to them."

Shi Yongfu and Cao Ruicheng nodded at the same time, and then said in unison:

"Brain is sick!"

……

On March 1942, 3, the last brigade of the 18st Anglo-Burmese Division withdrew to Pyay.

In the same ancient times, the 200th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force carried out independent defense!
In the afternoon, the vanguard of the Japanese army advanced to a distance of 12 kilometers from the Pew River Bridge.

The absurd thing is that until now, the Japanese army still doesn't know its opponent, and it has been replaced by the Chinese army.

It's hard to imagine how they do this kind of intelligence work.

On the other hand, the 200th Division has already obtained the military command agents very early, mainly the information provided by Meng Shaoyuan:
Attacking the enemy of Tonggu is the 55th Division of the Japanese Army B.

Commander Lieutenant General Hiroshi Takeuchi.

Its forward unit is the 112th Infantry Regiment!

Dai Anlan didn't even ask how Meng Shaoyuan got the information.

He doesn't care, or he trusts Meng Shaoyuan!

Those who stick to the Pew River Bridge are the advance battalion.

In name, Meng Shao was originally the chief military officer, but if a war really started, Ding Wenrui had to rely on Ding Wenrui to command it.

Meng Shaoyuan was acting foolishly and acting recklessly, but he knew what he could and couldn't do.

It is absolutely forbidden for laymen to direct experts.

On the afternoon of March 3, the Japanese army began to launch a tentative attack on the Pew River Bridge.

The Japanese army, who chased the British all the way around like ducks, was not prepared to be hit in Tonggu at all!
"Fire!"

Ding Wenrui let out a roar, and the Pew River Bridge position opened fire at the same time!
Countless tongues of fire, with vengeful anger, vented towards the Japanese army heartily.

On the flank, the Cavalry Regiment of the Fifth Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Army, under the command of the deputy head Huang Xingxian, also launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army at the same time!
The Japanese army that was hit suddenly suffered countless casualties.

The Japanese army, accustomed to fighting with the wind, suddenly panicked.

They rushed up "hula-la", and soon retreated "hula-la".

All that was left was a corpse.

It was a clean ambush.

This is also the first official confrontation between the 200th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the 55th Division of the Japanese Army.

The expeditionary force won a complete victory.

The Japanese army left more than [-] dead bodies on the Pew River Bridge!
In this battle, the advance battalion and the cavalry regiment cooperated tacitly, attacked suddenly, and the Japanese army was unprepared, which led to this victory!
Cheers came from the soldiers of the expeditionary army on the battlefield.

Dai Anlan, who had been watching the battle not far from the front line, had a smile on his lips.

Another good start.

The advance battalion arrived at Tonggu's first battle and won.

The first contest between the main forces of the two sides was still started by the advance battalion.

Another win!
This Meng Shaoyuan is really a lucky general.

At this time, the "Fortune General" Meng Shaoyuan had no time to celebrate the victory.

"Search, search these corpses carefully for me."

Meng Shaoyuan was the first to jump out of the position and went straight towards the corpses.

"Damn it, hurry up and protect the officer!"

Li Zhifeng became anxious immediately.

If there is a cold shot, it will be over.

It's not that Meng Shaoyuan is ignorant of this.

The problem is, in his eyes, these corpses are treasures.

Once the Japanese army organized troops, it would not be fun to snatch these corpses back.

"Cover, cover!"

Ding Wenrui was also in a hurry.

What is Chief Meng going to do?

Isn't it just a pile of corpses?
"Search, search for an officer!"

Meng Shaoyuan's eyes were red.

Of course Li Zhifeng knew what he was looking for: "There, that corpse belongs to the second lieutenant, quickly, bring his bag."

Shi Yongfu tore off the bag on the body of the second lieutenant of the Japanese army.

"Go, sir, go!"

Meng Shaoyuan snatched the bag from Shi Yongfu: "Go, go!"

He took his own people and flew back to the position.

Leaping forward, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Carefully opened the bag and took out everything inside!

"That's it, that's it!"

Meng Shaoyuan's eyes lit up.

Here is the battle plan of the 55th Division of the Japanese Army, as well as the marching route!
