Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

When Feng Zicai entered Myanmar, China had already contacted the Myanmar Anti-British Rebel Army to serve as the guide of the army.However, recently the British army has stepped up its anti-British rebel forces in Burma, and several rebel troops were beaten to pieces.By the time Feng Zi crossed the mountain, he had already lost contact with them.After three days in Myanmar, Feng Zicai was still wandering in the Kumenling Mountains. There are still many uninhabited places in the deep mountains and old forests in Myanmar.When you entered Myanmar, you chose uninhabited places for the concealment of the army, but now it is difficult to find a village to establish coordinates.Although Feng Zicai brought more than ten days of food and grass with the army and seven days of dry food with each person when he entered Myanmar this time, the ammunition can also support three to five consecutive days of fighting.But Feng Zicai was furious for not going out of this deep mountain and old forest for three consecutive days.

"Junmen, what kind of shitty place is this? There's no one there, why are you still running around in circles after three days?" A soldier grumbled as he wiped the burly man.

"Damn it, I have lost contact with the country now. The radio station in this ghost place can't be set up. Don't count on domestic supplies in a short time. The most urgent thing now is to find a place where there are people, determine your location, and move around. Once you have figured out the current situation, get in touch with the country." After all, Feng Zicai is a veteran general who has experienced many battles. Although he is restless, he can still adjust himself in time to make the most timely choice.

At the same time when the two armies of the Qing Dynasty entered Burma respectively, there was a surge of optimism and anger in Britain.An editorial in London's "Tessie" wrote: "As long as there are no accidents on the Sino-Myanmar border, the victory of this war is a foregone conclusion." Driven by the idea that the war will soon end, the British Expeditionary Force has already The energy was spent on how to avoid the backlog of military supplies in Myanmar.Lieutenant General Wallace, commander of the expeditionary force, issued an order in his headquarters at the Mandalay Palace to "abolish all restrictions" and "launch the last offensive with all strength". Arrangements were made so that the British soldiers could withdraw from Burma first.” In their view, the only thing left in Burma was to maintain law and order, and these colonial soldiers could do it.The Indian colonial government also informed Lieutenant General Barclay that they would stop sending supplementary personnel to Burma, to which Lieutenant General Wallace did not raise objections.

Major General Marceau of the Indian Colonial Eighteenth Army told Lieutenant General Wallace that he had more than enough ammunition.All the ammunition and equipment shipped from India can be shipped back to India.All ammunition orders in the UK can be stopped, because the war is coming to an end.

And when the logistics staff of the British Expeditionary Force distributed the price list of Christmas gifts to the British soldiers in Burma, many soldiers threw away the price list. They thought it was absurd to spend Christmas in Burma.

Having not suffered a major defeat for more than 100 years, the British army was so proud that they were not worried about the possibility of China's intervention in the war. "How dare such an uncivilized country challenge the British Empire."The stubborn arrogance of the British is fully reflected at this moment.

The British did not expect China to intervene in the war at all. Afterwards, Lieutenant General Barclay, commander of the British Expeditionary Force, said: "Although the country has been reminding me that China may intervene in the war, we think we know everything, but in fact we know nothing. No idea. However, the other party knew everything. So, the war began."

"Bang, bang..." The deafening sound of gunfire and fighting echoed in the deep mountains.

"Where to shoot? Where to shoot?" Feng Zicai asked loudly.

"Junmen, the sound should be gunshots from the direction of Li Biaotong's troops." A soldier replied after thinking.

"Quickly, let the messenger go and find out the situation and report to me."

"twitter."

In a small valley in Kumen Ridge, a Burmese army armed with bows, arrows, and scimitars was fighting a British army all armed with Mallet rifles.The red military uniform is particularly dazzling. Although the Burmese army has an absolute advantage in numbers, the situation seems to be very unfavorable to them. The British army has surrounded the Burmese from both sides of the valley.

I saw that the Burmese rushed towards the British army surrounding them very bravely, trying to break through the encirclement of the British army.

The British soldiers were divided into two rows. The front row knelt on one knee, and the rear row held their rifles flat.The Burmese tried their best to rush over, but the British infantry's neat and accurate shooting caused the Burmese to pay casualties in vain. Many Burmese fell one after another 100 meters before the valley entrance.

"Report to the army, and Li Biaotong reported back. It was the small British army that was fighting against the Burmese, but the cold weapons used by the Burmese could not resist the British army. Li Biaotong asked if we could send reinforcements."

"Okay, tell Li Kuan that the army's entry into Burma is extremely covert. Don't let it out in advance, wipe out all the small British troops, and don't let one go, or I will take his head." Feng Zicai said loudly and kindly.

"twitter."

After a whole afternoon of fierce fighting, those Burmese people were finally reborn under Li Kuan's dispatch of troops to rescue them.It was also because of these Burmese people that Feng Zicai's army was finally able to leave the abominable deep mountains and old forests.

But the disappearance of all this small British army has aroused the suspicion of the British.

"What? The third battalion hasn't come back yet? What's going on? Have you sent someone to check the war zone they're responsible for cleaning up?" said Mo Sen, head of the [-]th Regiment of the [-]nd Brigade of the [-]st Field Division of the British Royal Far East Group Army. The colonel looked at his intelligence officer in surprise.

I have sent people to find traces of fierce fighting in the Sawan mountain generation.I believe they should be missing there.We found no dead soldiers nearby, but we did find something strange, this one. Major Henry, the intelligence staff officer, took out a few shell casings from his coat pocket, "This is the bullet of the American Italian gun, which is lighter than Marr's bullet." "

Colonel Mawson frowned and took the shell casings from Major Henry, stood up and said, "Why do these aborigines have American rifles? Are the Americans secretly supporting these aborigines to fight against the British Empire?"

Major Henry let Colonel Mawson pass, and then said: "We have never seen the natives here use it before. They only have some marls that were taken from us. In fact, Americans are not the only ones in the world who use Liyi guns. The Chinese There are also such rifles."

Mo Sen turned his head abruptly when he heard the words, looked at Major Henry and said, "You mean the Chinese sent troops?"

Major Henry said expressionlessly: "It is not ruled out that there is such a possibility."

"This is ridiculous, the best time to join the war has been missed, if they send troops before the battle of Bagan. Maybe we haven't taken Mandalay yet. And the Chinese are facing the Russians in the north. Where are they coming from Dare to challenge two world powers at the same time." Colonel Mawson shook his head like a rattle.

Major Henry suggested at this time: "I think we should report this matter to the command."

Mo Sen shook his finger and said, "Is it just these few bullet casings? Maybe it was China who supported those aborigines? Just report it like this, and we will be ridiculed for ignorance. It is better to report after we have detailed information. "

"Yes." Henry stood at attention with his palms out.

Mo Sen looked at Henry at this time, and felt that he should not be too disrespectful, and those natives were able to wipe out the third battalion.Combat strength is also no small matter, and now there are more weapons from the third battalion, which is not a small threat. "Order the first and second battalions to return to Myitkyina. Help with defense."

The Lion Awakens Chapter 85 officially declares war

Feng Zicai's department entered a dam in the mountains and environmental protection land.The first thing that catches the eye is the embroidered buildings in the shade of green trees.This kind of architecture is very suitable for the climate of the South Subtropical Rainforest.The embroidery building is divided into two floors.The ground floor is fenced.It is a place to store sundries and raise livestock.The upper floor is where the family lives and lives.Each embroidered building has a balcony where the family can enjoy the cool breeze.Clothes can also be dried.Inside the house is a large living room covered with bamboo mats, where family members eat, rest and receive guests.There is a firepit in the center of the house, which can be used for cooking and heating. The living room is connected to the bedrooms, and there are usually three to five rooms, depending on the number of family members.

Although the area of ​​this dam is huge, it cannot hoard [-] troops.Feng Zicai left the large army in the valley of Kumen Ridge, and went to garrison with a team of troops.

At this time, Feng Zicai was sitting in a spacious bamboo building.On the opposite side was an old man with a kind and dignified face. He pulled a young man with a shirtless upper body, long trousers and a red cloth wrapped around his head, and said, "Thank you for saving my son, those foreign devils The firearms are very powerful, and our clansmen have been defeated by them several times, so it’s good if you come here now.”

Feng Zicai originally thought it was the Burmese army, but it turned out to be a militia from a small mountain village!

Feng Zicai exchanged some pleasantries and asked, "The most urgent task now is to collect news about Myitkyina and see how many British troops there are there. How about setting up defenses? Only by taking that place can the British troops dare not go deep here, and the stockade on the back can also be preserved." It's gone." Feng Zicai took out a map and pointed it to the old man.

The old man saw the location clearly and said: "No problem, many Allahs have been there, there must be news within three days."

Three days later, Feng Zicai, who was stationed at Savanzhaizi, received the detailed information about Myitkyina. Myitkyina is located at the downstream of the confluence of the two branches of the Irrawaddy River, the Enmeikai River and the Mailikai River. It is not only rich in fragrant rice, but also rich in emeralds. .Myanmar is the main jadeite producing area in the world, and Myitkyina is the main jadeite producing area in Myanmar.The jadeite produced here is as crystal clear as spring water, psychic and moist, and has the reputation of "imperial jade".

As the only important town in northern Myanmar, it supports almost all the economy in northern Myanmar. For thousands of years, the mountain people living in the mountains have used bamboo rafts to transport the special products in the mountains here, and then exchange them for the salt and iron they need. .The river valley near Myitkyina is also the most densely populated place in the mountainous area of ​​northern Myanmar. With this place, the power of the British army can radiate to the mountainous area of ​​northern Myanmar, so there are thousands of British troops guarding it for a long time.

However, the long-term peace made these British soldiers seem a little lazy. The British soldiers who were in charge of patrolling and standing guard were simply suitable for the scene. In their view, those Burmese mountain people dared to attack the squad they went out to sweep. Never dare to attack a well-fortified city.This should have been a correct analysis, but it was unexpectedly changed because of China's participation in the war.

The [-]th Regiment of the British Royal Far East Army stationed here, due to the strange disappearance of the [-]rd Battalion which was performing the cleaning mission before.The head of the regiment, Mo Sen, has ordered the remaining first and second battalions to recover and defend Myitkyina.

After getting the exact news, Feng Zicai took the three bids and went straight to Myitkyina. The British army there should have smelled something and adopted a full-scale contraction.However, Feng Zicai hadn't noticed the strength of the two battalions. Even if the [-]th Regiment of the British Royal Field Division not far from Myitkyina arrived, he believed that his three bidders would be able to eat them all in one bite.

The mountainous area in northern Myanmar is almost a continuation of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and you can often see valleys as deep as thousands of feet. It is very difficult to transport heavy weapons here.It was a long night and many dreams, and the British army found out the news of the Qing Dynasty’s dispatch of troops. Feng Zicai gave up heavy equipment such as battalion artillery and Hakikis machine guns, and led all the infantry all the way to the south. At this time, the results of the troops’ early mountain cross-country training appeared. , In the hot and humid rainforest and steep mountains, soldiers can still walk like flying, and do a good job of preventing mosquitoes and fever.Under such circumstances, Feng Zicai's two bidders ran 100 miles in two days and surrounded Myitkyina before the British army realized that the situation was not good.

This time Feng Zicai brought the cannon mark that he built alone, although it is difficult to transport the cannon in the valley.However, the latest equipped mortars were carried on their backs very easily, and they brought more than 500 of them.

At night, it was pitch black, and Myitkyina, surrounded by mountains and rivers, lay there quietly like a wild beast.The stars hid in the clouds very cooperatively, making the surroundings appear dark and unclear.

Feng Zicai's artillery marks have been set up for artillery fire 1 kilometer away, and 500 mortars fired at the same time. I believe that without a few rounds of bombardment, the seemingly solid city gates and towers of Myitkyina will be riddled with holes. .

"Boom, boom..."

After 10 minutes of continuous bombing, a big hole had been blasted out of the city gate.There were also many large holes two to three meters wide in the city tower. The artillery fire had just stopped, and at almost the same time, Feng Zicai's two standard troops rushed into the city together.

For a moment, Myitkyina seemed to be full of flames.When Mo Sen woke up from his sleep, Feng Zicai had already led an army into the city and was heading towards the British barracks along the street.

"What happened? Could it be that the Burmese in the city rioted?"

"I'm afraid not, sir. The enemy came in from outside the city, and the gates were heavily bombarded."

"The natives have artillery?"

"I'm afraid they are not indigenous people. They seem to speak Chinese. The infantry rushing in is also very powerful, and their rifles are very accurate."

Colonel Mawson's brow was a little sweaty at this time, did the Chinese really join the war, God, could they be crazy.

"Immediately shrink all the troops in the city and stick to the camp. Wait for the arrival of reinforcements." According to military common sense, Colonel Mawson's actions are understandable, because he judged from the intensity of the gunfire that the number of enemies will exceed them.If he breaks out of the siege rashly, he is likely to be swallowed by the enemy during the movement of the battlefield. Now he can only hope that the 10th regiment not far from Myitkyina can arrive as soon as possible.But at the critical juncture, Mo Sen miscalculated the fighting power of the Qing army that surrounded them. Even the well-fortified city tower was instantly annihilated under the [-]-minute shelling, let alone a small military camp.

Feng Zicai didn't even organize the army to charge, but let the cannons bombard the opponent's camp area for a while.It has already boiled into a pot of bloody Iron Man broth, and this time the troop ratio is 10:1.With powerful fire support, Feng Zicai wiped out the two battalions guarded by Myitkyina in just three hours.This important city in the north was recaptured from the British.

The speed was so fast that even the 50th regiment [-] miles away didn't even have time to rescue.When the [-]th regiment arrived, the dragon flag had already been hung on the tower of Myitkyina! !

And this is just a microcosm of the first phase of the Qing Army's battle. Since the British army did not expect that China would suddenly join the war, they were caught off guard.In the eastern Shan plateau.Liu Yongfu wiped out two regiments of the Indian Division of the British Army.Another regiment was routed.The two important towns on the Shan plateau, Lashio and Jingdong, were restored.The forces that the British managed to establish here were hit hard.
