Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 1051: Chasing and intercepting

In front of Tang Qiuli, there were more than a dozen telegrams from Ma Chaoyang, commander of the Southeast Mobile Corps. All the contents made him extremely angry.

"Net". "Net"

After receiving the task of clearing the two divisions of Japanese troops along the border, Ma Chaoyang Corps set out from Nanning, Guangxi, and advanced along the border line from east to west. With the strength of the Southeast Mobile Corps, the Japanese troops of the two divisions were not at all

Opponent, but the actual situation far exceeded Ma Chaoyang's expectations.

In the Yuping area on the Sino-Vietnamese border, the Japanese 108th Division built a large supply base, guarded by a regiment of Japanese troops, equipped with a field artillery brigade, two cavalry brigades and two tank squadrons.

Judging from its strength and firepower, it is a tough nut to crack.

Ma Chaoyang attached great importance to the first battle in Yunnan. He used two brigades, equipped with two artillery regiments and one rocket launcher battalion, to launch an attack on the Japanese army in Yuping. The outcome of the battle did not have much suspense. Under the overwhelming force and firepower attack

, the Japanese troops at Yuping soon couldn't hold on.

He panicked and retreated to the Sino-Vietnamese border area. Ma Chaoyang would not let these little devils go. He immediately ordered his troops to pursue them. At the Nahe River in Henan Province on the Sino-Vietnamese border, he saw the Japanese troops running into Vietnam. The pursuing troops did not dare to make the decision and immediately asked the regiment commander for instructions.

Official Ma Chaoyang, Ma Chaoyang didn't even think about it, he just said "chasing"!

How could the fat in his mouth be made to fly? But what happened next made Ma Chaoyang so angry that he almost vomited blood. A brigade of British troops blocked the way of the troops along the Nanna River. Not only that

, the British army treats the Chinese troops, you are even more nervous when dealing with the Japanese army. In addition to the infantry, they also bring in artillery and tanks.

Without receiving an order from the division commander, Ma Chaoyang did not dare to order the troops to forcibly enter Vietnam. He sent troops to negotiate with the British army but failed, and a stalemate took place at the border. The British first fired shots, and then tanks and artillery fired at the same time. He did not dare to

The soldiers of the Japanese Army were injured, but this posture clearly prevented the Chinese Army from pursuing the Japanese army across the border.

The worst thing is that the Japanese army took the opportunity to get back, but inflicted certain casualties on the pursuing troops. Similar situations occurred many times in the border areas. In a telegram from Ma Chaoyang to the division commander Tang Qiuli, he said, "The British and

Japanese, put on a pair of pants and join forces to deal with us."

Even in some vague border areas, the British army deliberately covered the Japanese troops' withdrawal outside the country. Ma Chaoyang's regiment advanced thousands of miles and fought many battles, but the results made him ashamed. The British set up obstacles everywhere, obviously favoring the Japanese, and the Japanese army

Using overseas as a base, it crosses the border from time to time and launches sneak attacks on the troops of the Southeast Mobile Corps. This work is recommended by registered members of Piaotian Literature

The British army deliberately released water, and the Japanese took advantage and became more and more aggressive. They made sneak attacks on the troops, looted villages, and when they were attacked, they retreated abroad. Ma Chaoyang's regiment was restrained everywhere and gradually fell into a passive situation.

The situation was reported to Tang Qiuli. Ma Chaoyang had one idea. The British and the Japs were wearing the same pair of trousers, so the two of them should be beaten together and simply fight across the border. Tang Qiuli called back, "Don't be impulsive. Keep it tight."

Focusing on defending the current strategic locations, I will send special operations detachments to border areas in the near future. In addition, the directly affiliated corps has also moved south."

Tang Qiuli endured this breath for the time being. He knew that the British man's behavior of luring the wolf into the house would soon reap the consequences. At that time, when the British sued him, he would take back all the money and profits.

Since the beginning of the war between China and Japan, the British's behavior has been really disgraceful. They have curried favor with the Japanese, watched from a distance, and even flirted with the Japanese overtly and covertly. The British's real idea is to keep the flames of war burning within China.

Sacrifice China's interests to preserve their own interests in Southeast Asia, this is also the consistent practice of the British.

Because he had to give in for the time being, Tang Qiuli was not in a good mood. His eyes were fixed on Juichi Terauchi and the two hundred thousand Japanese troops who were retreating to Myanmar.

On September 25, Tang Qiuli issued a combat order. Tang Qiusheng's Sulu Mobile Corps marched westward from Songshaoguan, along the Rende, Fumin, and Chuxiong lines, and set up a posture to intercept the Japanese army. However, in the order

, he also strictly ordered the regiment not to launch a real attack on the Japanese army.

Li Honggang's 29th Corps marched out from Wuding in northwest Yunnan and made a move to pursue the Japanese army. Looking at the last part of the order, it was the same as the order given to Tang Qiusheng. It made Shouichi Temple aware that there was a troop pursuit. However, it was necessary to

Keep a distance of two days from the Japanese troops retreating south.

Not only the division commanders, but also Tang Qiusheng and Li Honggang didn't understand such an order. They didn't understand why the division commander did this. Although Juichi Terauchi had the upper hand and was four or five days ahead in time, Sulu could

Tang Qiusheng was confident of the transportation capabilities of the mobile corps and could seize the tail of the Japanese army before it retreated into Burma.

With this question, Tang Qiusheng and Li Honggang sent questioning telegrams to Tang Qiuli almost at the same time. Tang Qiuli simply replied with a few words, "Follow the order."

The force was pressing towards northern Yunnan, making Temple Shouichi feel unprecedented pressure.

However, he was not very good. He played a beautiful trick at Songshaoguan. Although he was forced to do so, he also bought enough time for the main force of the Southern Expeditionary Army. According to his plan, before entering Myanmar, the ** Division

It is impossible for the army to catch up with him.

The best route to enter Myanmar was Ruili or Yingjiang in western Yunnan. He was most afraid of Tang Qiuli's troops who would block these two passages first. Therefore, regardless of the fatigue of the troops, Temple Shouichi marched almost day and night until September.

On the 28th, the Japanese army had entered the Yongping area, and the border line was in sight. Temple Shouichi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The ** Division troops were still at least four or five days away from him. Looking back on the period of fighting in Southern China, it was almost like a nightmare, especially when going south from Loushanguan. During Songshaoguan, he felt the most dangerous.

days, and leaving the Seventh Army behind was even more sad for him than losing Yamashita Fengfumi's Fifteenth Army.

When they entered Nanzhi, the Southern Expeditionary Force had more than 400,000 troops. It could be said that they were strong. However, after several months of fighting, they lost one-half of their strength. Judging from the several orders given to them by the base camp, their tone was as cold as

Boiled water was almost the same, and the newly formed Southeast Asia Expedition Force became the darling of the base camp.

He is about to become history. After completing this mission to Myanmar, it may be the day he leaves the army. A general who has lost more than half of his troops will not have any good results. That China devil Tang Qiuli is

His own nemesis, if you look closely, he killed more than a dozen senior officers above the rank of major general in the China Southern Expeditionary Force alone.

Temple Shouichi admitted that Tang Qiuli was absolutely terrifying. Facing this Chinese devil, he felt powerless and exhausted. Taking more than 200,000 imperial soldiers out of dangerous situations was the only thing worth comforting him. But this

This kind of self-comfort was based on having to give up the Seventh Army, and the comfort was compromised.

In Yongping, Juichi Terauchi held a military meeting to deploy the next action plan. It was very simple. Walk, and walk fast, and keep a safe distance from the pursuing ** division troops. According to the report from the base camp, the Imperial Southeast Asia Dispatch Force will be

Recently, a large-scale male movement has been carried out in Southeast Asia.

The mission of the Southern China Expeditionary Force is to capture Myitkyina, and then continue southward to join forces with the imperial army that landed from Yangon in central Myanmar to complete the plan of strategically dividing Myanmar and then occupying the Indochina Peninsula. As for the joining forces,

Juichi Terauchi himself was not sure whether the dispatched troops' numbers could still be compromised.

But he was unwilling to leave more than 200,000 loyal and brave imperial soldiers on the land of China and failed to complete the strategic tasks assigned by the base camp. He was a loser. Perhaps, it would be better to bring the remaining troops safely to Myanmar.

The only way he could lose some face.

Terauchi Shouichi thought this way and did the same thing. The commanders of all the units were driven crazy by him. The long-term high-intensity march from northeastern Yunnan to northwest Yunnan caused great physical exertion on the Japanese soldiers, and non-combat attrition increased day by day.

, the bodies of dead Japanese soldiers can be seen everywhere in the vast jungles and rugged mountain roads.

Now, we finally see the light of day. In about five days, we can get rid of the nightmare in Southern China, get rid of the formidable China devil Tang Qiuli, and his fierce troops.

Shouyi's mood seemed to be improving, and he even occasionally joked with his senior staff.

The result of this was that the staff officers and staff around him became even more nervous. The Commander-in-Chief suddenly changed his temper. Was it because of his repeated defeats in China that he had a mental problem? In the past,

The Commander-in-Chief is not like this. No matter what his subordinates think, Terauchi Juichi is full of energy.

However, his good mood did not last long. Tang Qiuli would not let him go. The corps directly under the ** division had quickly rushed to the direction of Ruili and Yingjiang. The two passages that Shouyi was optimistic about in the temple would not be able to be saved.

After receiving the news, Terauchi Shouichi felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his whole body was nowhere to be found.

According to the current marching speed of the Japanese army, when he arrived at Ruili and Yingjiang, he happened to collide with the directly affiliated corps. He had only two choices, either to change direction, or to fight with the directly affiliated corps on the line from Ruili to Yingjiang.

In a decisive battle, the ** division troops were defeated and the passage into Burma was controlled.

Judging from the current combat effectiveness of the Japanese army and the physical strength of the soldiers, this is almost a dream like a fantasy. Moreover, such a battle will not be over in a short time. Don't forget that there is Tang Qiuli behind and on the right wing.

The two regiments are approaching. If the Japanese army is in a period of complete victory, they can be recaptured in two days.

However, he couldn't do it now, but Shouichi Terauchi wanted to give it a try. He ordered the exhausted Japanese troops to increase their marching speed again. Just when he had a chance, Tang Qiuli once again struck a ruthless blow and completely shattered the enemy.

his dream.
