Age of Conquest Reborn

Ito Yanzaburo didn't want to quarrel or have any conflict with this well-established Chief of Staff. He couldn't act like a godfather like he did to his previous Chief of Staff. Even within the large system of the Army, Takemura Yamaichi was not the same person as him.

A faction, not to mention, I still suspect that this guy is a supervisor sent by His Majesty the Emperor.

Ito suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said as gently as possible: "Takemura-kun, I have fought against the Chinese devil Tang Qiuli several times. I know this person well. He is full of tricks, loves to take risks, and does not play his cards according to common sense.

The motive for this sudden evacuation of Mogok, which has strong fortifications built, is questionable.”

"Our best response strategy at present is to stick to the defense line of Libao Grand Canyon, and then mobilize elite troops to fight against the ** division troops coming from the east. That is the serious problem of the imperial army. You know, the surrounding areas of Mandalay can be

There are no terrain conditions that can be exploited like Libao. The main thing is that with the current state of our dispatched troops, we can only determine one main attack direction."

In fact, Ito has clearly felt that a huge danger is coming towards the dispatched troops to Southeast Asia. Tang Qiuli's deployment is very clear, forming a strategic encirclement of the imperial army from the north and east of Myanmar, and heading east.

The troops from the two corps of the ** Division that came are probably going to capture Mandalay and cut off their retreat to the Malay Peninsula.

He made a plan to attack the ** division troops to the east firstly in order to avoid this danger from happening to him. But when he said this, could this guy Wucun believe it? Can he understand it?

Takemura Sanichi put away his arrogant expression, but his words contained a warning, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, you should not forget the order from the base camp? Today is October 3rd and there are still ten days left. Can we complete the mission?"

His Majesty’s Royal Approval Plan for the Battle of Burma should not be

Look forward and backward, worry about gains and losses, otherwise, the opportunity to fight will be wasted. The base camp will not let go of the investigation of responsibility. Mogok, which has gained a solid defense system without fighting, has pushed the front towards Myitkyina. No matter from any angle, it should be

An opportunity worth trying”

Ito couldn't hold back anymore. You mobilized troops behind my back. I haven't argued with you yet, and you are so aggressive. How can Tang Qiuli be so kind? Give up Mogok to our imperial army for nothing? Pig!

Brain? So, he said coldly

"Takemura-kun, I am the supreme commander of the Empire's Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force. All military operations cannot be carried out without my permission. Of course, I will bear all the consequences myself and will never pass this point on to others. Please takemura-kun."

rest assured"

The so-called non-speculative words are more than enough, but at this point in the conversation, in fact, the talks have collapsed. Takemura is greedy for the big piece of meat in Mogok and wants to send troops to occupy it. Ito is afraid of falling into Tang Qiuli's trap.

, they will never let a single soldier out of the defense line of Libo Grand Canyon. The two people have completely opposite opinions, and the conversation can no longer go on.

They didn't break out on the spot. It was the result of both parties restraining themselves and having their own concerns. Ito was so depressed that he almost vomited blood and wanted to kill people. In the history of the empire's Southeast Asia dispatch army, no chief of staff dared to talk to the general in person.

The commander called out that Wu Cun was the number one person, and this Wu Cun was a guy who was very happy with his achievements and was obsessed with flattery. He used the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the dispatched army to cater to the inexplicable order from the base camp. Damn it.

In Takemura's view, Ito Genzaburo, who can be called a veteran of the Japanese army, is old and belongs to the last century. His tactics and tactics are rigid. Cautious is a euphemism. In fact, he is a coward.

Such a person is not worthy of commanding such a huge imperial front army. Don't think that he can fulfill His Majesty the Emperor's grand wish to conquer Asia.

Neither Ito Yanzaburo nor Takemura Yamaichi spoke anymore. The atmosphere in the headquarters was as oppressive and solid. The staff officers in the room did not dare to breathe. The two giants were fighting each other. The one with no eyesight intervened and made a

It is common for people to be broken into pieces

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the troops who have left Mogok have reported that the enemy troops on the front line of Mogok have been completely evacuated, and defensive positions have been re-established on the line from Mengmi to the Bodwin mining area," a staff officer came in with a telegram in his hand and shouted

Report to

Ito took the telegram and browsed it quickly. His face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping with water, but he also felt a sense of relief. He glanced at Takemura, whose eyes were flickering, and said, "Mr. Takemura, this is the Chinese devil Tang Qiu."

It is a conspiracy of Li, and Mogok is the battlefield he gave us, so that we can fight this battle according to his will."

Takemura did not speak, but Ito clearly saw a hint of disapproval in his eyes. Ito ordered: "Convey my order to the defenders on the front line of Libao Grand Canyon. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter Mogok.

Mr. Takemura, I truthfully stated my opinions to the base camp and requested to postpone the end of the Burma Campaign."

Ito turned around and left. He didn't see that Takemurayama's glance was full of irony. He came from the base camp, and before leaving, he went to the office of the Chief of General Staff to accept the plan in person and the battle plan approved by His Majesty the Emperor.

, how could it be that you, Ito Genzaburo, could change it just by saying it? I don’t know the heights of the world, but he could have predicted the result, which was a big nail in the coffin.

By the evening of October 3rd, Tang Qiuli in Mengmi received a report from the reconnaissance force: “Throughout three days, no large-scale Japanese military action was seen. Only a small group of Japanese troops left the Libao defense line and entered Mogok.

He went out to reconnoiter Mengmi's front line, and then quickly retreated."

Tang Qiuli looked at the telegram and said to Tang Qiusheng with a smile: "Brother Qiusheng, this Ito seems to have learned well. He has become smarter by not eating a piece of fat as big as Mogok."

Tang Qiusheng nodded and said: "It can be inferred from this that the current strength of Ito's Japanese army is not enough to launch a decisive attack. Ito is still recovering. In addition, our counterattack in the Baldwin Mining Area,

The beating was so severe that Ito, an old devil, was still frightened, fearing that he would fall into our trap of luring the snake out of its hole and lose the natural line of defense of Ribo."

Tang Qiuli nodded and said: "Brother Qiu Sheng, your analysis is absolutely correct. There is still a possibility that Ito relied on the Libao Grand Canyon defense line to hold on with a small number of troops to resist our attack, and freed up his hands to mobilize the existing

With the strength of our troops to deal with our two corps troops from the east, with Ito's experience and experience, it is not difficult to see that Feng Jiwu and Ma Chaoyang are their most deadly threats. If Mandalay is lost, Ito will really

The retreat has been cut off.”

Tang Qiusheng nodded and continued: "If Ito really does this, Feng Jiwu Corps and Ma Chaoyang Corps will face an attack by the Japanese army whose strength is greater than their own. Even if they can drag the main force of the Japanese army to the Salween River, they will suffer losses."

It will definitely be huge, and it will form an endless battle with the Japanese army in central Myanmar. This is contrary to your campaign vision. This problem must be solved."

Tang Qiuli muttered, "Ito, I hope you will retreat in spite of the difficulties. It's not that I can't kill you, but that you can still be useful if I keep you." Tang Qiusheng didn't hear clearly and asked, "Sir, what are you talking about?"

Tang Qiuli smiled and did not answer, and said to Chief of Staff Chang Feng: "Order, Le Yiqin's Southern Flying Group to carry out non-stop bombing on the Japanese army's Libao Grand Canyon defense line, creating the illusion that we are about to launch a full-scale attack.

"Tang Qiusheng asked, "The Japanese army didn't take the bait. Will the troops immediately return to the front line position in Mogok?"

Tang Qiuli shook his head and replied: "No, just put that piece of meat under Ito's nose. He can resist the temptation. Other senior Japanese generals may not. Our bombers will drop bombs on the heads of the Japanese troops at the Libo Defense Line."

, see if Ito dares to concentrate his troops on the Eastern Front, and if he dares not go to the Eastern Front, he will have to swallow Mogok.

Tang Qiusheng smiled and said, "You have figured out the Japanese commander's temper." Tang Qiuli secretly smiled, "It's not the Japanese commander's temper, but the thoughts of that bullshit emperor. The Allies agreed on this."

How can the defense agreement not make Emperor Hirohito panic? He wants to solve the Burmese issue first, and then turn around and deal with the Americans. That's right."

Tang Qiuli picked up the phone and said, "Answer Artillery Commander Zheng Yong." "Is this Zheng Yong? I order all the artillery units on the front line to be under your command. It is required that the artillery group must be able to cover the front line of Mogok in all directions." Put down the phone.

After the phone call, he said to Tang Qiusheng: "Brother Qiusheng, are you going to send the engineering troops to our position in Mogok to add some materials to the Japanese? We only have artillery shells, so I'm afraid it's not thorough."

Tang Qiusheng sighed and shook his head and said, "You are so cruel." After saying that, he went out to arrange the engineering troops. Tang Qiusheng said to Chief of Staff Chang Feng, "Chang Feng, send a report to Feng Jiwu immediately.

Feng Jiwu Corps and Ma Chaoyang Corps immediately accelerated their advance and assumed a posture to capture Mandalay. They also gradually compressed the small number of Japanese troops blocking the two regiments on the Salween River back to the Mandalay area."

If we look at the situation of the entire Burma battlefield, the ** Division troops, from the north and east directions, are like the upper and lower jaws of a vise. Strategically, they formed a formation against the Japanese troops under Ito who were holding on to the line from Libao to Mandalay.

A huge encirclement circle. The difference is that the ** division troops in the north direction are stationary, while the troops in the east direction are quickly closing the upper jaw of the vise.

Even those with no military knowledge would know that the Japanese troops under Ito were being attacked from two directions and were in danger of being surrounded on the line from Libao to Mandalay. Tang Qiuli used this

This oppressive situation made Ito Yanzaburo retreat and go to Luzon to find trouble with the Americans. I just wonder if Ito appreciates it?

Everything that needs to be done is done, and it all depends on Ito's next move. He suddenly remembered that Chu Tian was commanding the troops to wipe out the small group of Japanese troops that had penetrated into the rear. Two days had passed, and he did not know the outcome of the battle.

How about those pesky flies, they sting you from time to time, it’s really uncomfortable

"Yang Ketian, Yang Ketian," Tang Qiuli shouted loudly. Yang Ketian hurriedly came in, followed by a slender figure.
