Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 1457 Churchill's Murder
British wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill, at this time, already hated Alexander to death. This guy who successively brought shame to the British Empire and lost all the military power in its overseas territories deserved to die!
After being defeated by the Japanese and losing the Indochina Peninsula, Churchill could still understand Alexander's difficulties. After all, in Asia, the Japanese are the well-deserved leader in the region. This emerging industrial country has unprecedented economic and military strength. In Northeast China,
, overthrown the Russians, and frightened the Americans in Southeast Asia.
With a fierce murderous spirit, quite a bit of savagery, and the courage of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, the British were driven out of the Indochina Peninsula by the Japanese. Churchill could only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach. He did not dare to have any temper at all.
The reporter said, is it useful to lose your temper? The Japanese will not pay attention to your words at all. 1.
But this time, after being defeated by the Chinese, Churchill would never forgive Alexander. The Chinese? Can they also defeat the British Empire’s army? This country, which has been in turmoil for a century and is poor and weak, has just cut off the braids on the back of its head and is only a few dozen years old.
With years of hard work, can he be the opponent of the British Imperial Army with Americans as the backing?
In Churchill's view, the two sides are not opponents of the same level. However, the British Empire's offensive in northern Burma did fail. This is an unavoidable fact. It only shows that Alexander is a mediocre person and not qualified for this position.
Even though he was defeated by the Chinese who were still using rifles from the 19th century, how unbearable was Alexander? It’s unforgivable!
I wanted to use a battle against the Chinese in Asia to boost domestic morale. Whether it was a bluff or a pretext, Prime Minister Churchill needed this battle, and it was a battle that must be won, so as to show his confidence to the world, especially Germany.
People have shown that the war potential of the British Empire is far from being developed. In Asia, which is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the mainland, it still has the ability to initiate a war.
However, they failed. They were defeated at the hands of the Chinese. All of Churchill's wishful thinking came to nothing. He lost the face of the British Empire. This was only the superficial consequence. The deeper consequence was that it completely exposed the British Empire's weak trump card.
, and all of this was caused by Alexander who failed more than succeeded. At this time, Churchill had already developed murderous intentions towards Alexander.
However, Churchill was a seasoned politician, and there were also smart people around him. There were still more than 80,000 troops stationed in India who needed to be brought back to India. This is the foundation for regaining glory in the future. At this time, if Alexander is dealt with, he will be ready for the battle.
Killing generals will definitely have a turbulent impact on the troops at the beginning of the defeat. It will also put the remaining officers and soldiers of the Indian Army who have retreated to India. Everyone is in danger. No one can guarantee what unpredictable consequences may occur.
.
Therefore, Churchill, in the name of the Prime Minister of the War Cabinet, ordered the General Staff to issue an order. The troops stationed in India will still be commanded by Commander Alexander for the time being, and his position will be retained for the time being. The only task is to ensure that more than 80,000 troops are stationed in India.
People, return to India safely.
Behind the scenes, Churchill ordered the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff to form a joint team and send capable senior officers to India. Once Alexander and the remaining troops arrived in India, he would immediately arrest Alexander, replace all senior officers, and send them from London.
members of the team took over all command of the troops stationed in India and began to purge the troops 1.
As for the Lieutenant General Adams he recommended, Churchill was not even in the mood to consider it, and sneered in his heart, "Alexander made a good calculation and recommended his chief of staff to take over the position of commander. Isn't that just changing the soup without changing the medicine?"
With your recommendation, Adams still doesn't treat you as a benefactor? Indirectly, the troops stationed in India are still under his control."
The wily Churchill would never give Alexander, who had disgraced himself, any chance to make a comeback. To be fair, Churchill was a little too sensitive and a villain. No matter how unbearable Alexander was, no matter how he was defeated again and again, in his bones
, he is still an orthodox British man and will never do such sneaky things.
Helpless, British Prime Minister Churchill himself was a politician who was good at playing tricks and had endless conspiracies. From his understanding, what Alexander did must be a conspiracy. However, in the eyes of him, a great conspirator,
This kind of little trick is too childish. Since Churchill had such thoughts, it is easy to imagine Alexander's tragic end.
The order from the British General Staff was quickly conveyed to Alexander, who was still being treated in Xindu in the Hukang Valley. Looking at the telegram from the highest local military command in his hands, Alexander rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and then
, shed tears of excitement. He did not expect that after losing so miserably, the country still had such trust in him.
Alexander secretly vowed in his heart, "The remaining troops will be brought back to India no matter what. In his lifetime, he will train another elite division for the British Empire. Although there is no hope of revenge against Tang Qiuli, they are also descendants."
Our capital, one day the Union Jack of the British Empire will still fly on the land of Indochina."
Alexander, who had been lying in bed for a few days, suddenly became energetic and even got out of bed on his own, looking quite energetic. It seemed that a telegram from China was like a panacea that made his heart disease go away. 1.
Looking at the energetic Commander, Chief of Staff Adams beside him felt a little disappointed. How could things turn out like this? Was he just too unlucky, or was Alexander too lucky? The telegram from the General Staff, even
There was not a word of accusation or reprimand. The defeat of northern Burma was just revealed so lightly. This was something Adams did not expect.
Alexander looked at Adams who was a little distracted and said, "Dear Adams, you have worked hard these days. Now, immediately convey my order. The troops cannot stay in Xinduo for too long. After replenishing supplies, they will set off immediately. In addition,
, leaving a full brigade of troops in Xinduo, building fortifications, and preparing to block the pursuing Tang Qiuli's troops."
"I have a hunch that the hateful and despicable Chinese and his troops are not far away from us. So, Adams, leave all the heavy weapons and as much supplies and ammunition as possible to the Xindo garrison. They
The mission is to block the ** Division’s pursuing troops in Xinduo for more than three days, and then you can decide on your own the route and method of retreat!”
Adams agreed mentally, and Alexander didn't think much about it, thinking that his chief of staff had been overworked these days, so he continued with concern: "Dear Adams, after all this work, you can go and rest. By the way, there are also
, immediately send a telegram to Brest, the commander of the garrison in Cido, and prepare the supplies and materials needed by the troops in advance. That confused guy must give him instructions!"
Adams was busy conveying the order. He walked out of the tent that smelled of potion, put his hands on his hips, and looked towards the west of the Hukang River Valley. It was full of greenery, and the Hukang River flowed eastwards in rough waves. A few days ago, his troops
When we were advancing with great momentum, we would have thought that now, we are retreating sadly. When we came, we had thousands of troops and they were as powerful as tigers. When we returned, we were defeated and dejected. Life is really impermanent!
Alexander shook his head, trying hard to expel these bad emotions from his mind, "In five more days, we can reach the Puram area in East India safely. If Tang Qiuli's troops don't catch up, he will
Losing the last chance, five days, only five days, Tang Qiuli, the hatred between you and me cannot be resolved!"
Alexander, who gritted his teeth and hated Tang Qiuli, believed that he and the more than 80,000 remnant troops were lucky that the troops of the Japanese Army did not pursue them closely. It can be seen that Alexander's thinking is still at the level of the First World War.
He only knows one-line push and parallel pursuit, and calls himself an expert on China. How can he understand the essence of the ancient Chinese art of war?
Just when the remnants of the British-Indian army were resting in Xinduo and taking a breather, they surrounded and annihilated the eight brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps, more than 100,000 people who were facing the enemy, along the route taken by the British-Indian army when they invaded northern Burma.
, with the Hukang River Valley as the center, it is divided into four north and south roads, with 1 thrust in many directions to the west.
In order to gain time for the troops of the Sulu Mobile Regiment to pass through Xiduo, the twelve brigades of the Direct Regiment that were chasing along the Hukang River Valley deliberately slowed down their pace. The two leading regiments kept a two-day distance from the British and Indian troops.
, once again gave Alexander the illusion that the ** division's pursuit troops were still far away from him. Otherwise, in the case of a hasty retreat, he would not have been able to order the troops to rest in Xinduo for more than a day.
Xiduo, the last pass from northern Myanmar to East India, has become an insurmountable gap for the British and Indian troops. Starting from the morning of April 29, the transport aircraft force of the Southern Flying Group of the ** Division began to send a large number of
Equipment, supplies and ammunition, as well as equipment for building blocking fortifications, were continuously airdropped to Xiduo.
The flight route of the airdrop deliberately avoided the airspace of the Hukang Valley. Without alerting the British and Indian troops who were retreating along the Hukang Valley, the transport aircraft troops set up a supply line in the air and waited as soon as the airstrip was completed.
, after being able to take off and land transport aircraft, an organized field hospital was formed. A large number of doctors, nurses, medical equipment, etc. arrived randomly, and a complete field rescue base was established in the hidden mountains north of Xiduo.
Subsequently, the heavy equipment of four heavy artillery regiments and three rocket launcher battalions was continuously flown to Xiduo. According to the request of division commander Tang Qiuli, Xiduo's three brigades, without backup, blocked the Eighth Route Army.
The Indian troops of more than 10,000 British troops managed to survive four days and four nights without suffering any losses. This shows the importance of heavy equipment in the blocking battle.
Blocked in the front and pursued in the rear, the troops of the First Division were far away from the retreating British and Indian troops, but this did not mean that Tang Qiuli could allow Alexander and his remaining defeated troops to walk comfortably to Xiduo.
