Age of Conquest Reborn

Special Operations Detachment Captain Chu Tian's invitation to fight was purely unexpected. In all of Tang Qiuli's plans for the South Pacific battlefield, there was no special operations detachment dispatched to go deep into the battlefields where Japan and the United States were fighting to obtain intelligence. Tang Qiuli did not

Li Geng cannot risk the lives of the special operations team members.

Therefore, Tang Qiuli could not approve Chutian's request for a battle.

Tang Qiuli motioned the emotional Chu Tian to sit down, and then said gently: "Chu Tian, ​​your spirit of taking the initiative to fight is good. A soldier should have such a strong spirit. Even though there are thousands of people, I will go there."

That's right! No matter how dangerous the battlefield environment is, you still have the courage to go through fire and water!"

"However, there are many ways to obtain battlefield intelligence. Your plan is not the only way, nor is it the best way. You can understand even if I don't tell you the specific reasons. Okay, your plan will be used as a backup plan.

I will naturally consider it when necessary."

"Why, after we withdrew from East India and East Pakistan, we haven't fought for several months. Are we still thinking about it? It's not good to be impatient! Chutian, from Mandalay to Yangon, we rushed all the way. Let's have lunch.

Haven't you eaten yet? Xinlan, ask the cooking team to cook some good dishes, and I will eat with Captain Chu!"

It seems that Tang Qiuli did not want to talk too much about this issue, so he changed the topic. Everyone in the office knew in their hearts that what the teacher said was a backup plan, and it was normal to have it in reserve. This was tantamount to

It was a disguised denial of Chu Tian's request for a fight, but it was just more tactful. Everyone's eyes were turned to the young colonel's detachment leader.

Chu Tian was not as excited or eager to argue as he expected. Instead, he sat down and said in a calm tone: "Commander, before I came to see you, I met Director Yu from the Intelligence Department and Director of the Investigation Department.

Director Shen, I know everything about the situation. The two directors are worried about not being able to obtain valuable information. I think so. You are the same, division commander!"

Tang Qiuli suddenly realized that no wonder Chutian came up with such a plan as soon as he arrived in Yangon. It turned out to be Yu Deshui and Shen Junlu, but he did not think about Chutian's words, but looked at them with gentle eyes.

He has a brave and resourceful general under his command. Let’s see what other reasons he has to impress and convince himself.

Chu Tian continued: "Commander, the two professional intelligence departments are both worried about the situation in the Pacific battlefield. As the top commander of our army, you can imagine how you feel. Moreover, after I came in.

Seeing all kinds of intelligence in the room, it can be seen that you, division commander, urgently need to have detailed information on the various battlefields where the Americans and Japanese are fighting in order to make accurate deployments."

Speaking of this, there was a hint of cunning and pride in Chutian's eyes. Tang Qiuli said calmly: "Observe carefully and draw inferences from one instance to infer the essence of things from ordinary details. In the shortest time

Come up with a solution within the time, yes, I do need this information, but, Chutian, this alone is not enough, there is no reason to send a special operations detachment to take risks!"

Chu Tian smiled, his smile was bright, and he was not impatient because of the division commander's rejection. He continued: "I understand what the division commander means. The biggest concern is how to ensure the safety of the special operations detachment after it goes deep into the battlefield.

, Commander, I proposed this plan not on impulse, please listen to my report on the specific implementation plan, and it will not be too late to deny it!"

Tang Qiuli nodded, a little curious in his heart. Chu Tian was very confident and confident. What good ideas could he have?

Chu Tian continued: "Commander, my plan is to recruit 200 veterans with rich combat experience from the entire detachment, basically squad leaders and above, to form four groups of fifty people each, and sneak into Luzon Island.

, the team members selected for the battlefields in Mindanao, Kalimantan, and Sumatra are all proficient in Japanese and have actual combat experience with the Japanese army many times."

"We are very familiar with the Japanese army's troop structure, combat habits and living habits. Each group disguises itself as a small Japanese army and mingles with the Japanese army. In this case, the more troops the United States and Japan have fighting, the more beneficial it will be to us. Hundreds of thousands

What are the battlefield numbers of the troops? Movements are extremely frequent and the battlefield conditions are chaotic. I am afraid that the Japanese command does not fully understand where the troops are attacking. Who cares about a small force of more than fifty people?"

"We are just fish, swimming in the sea of ​​Japanese. Division commander, our special operations detachment has carried out similar operations frequently. We are familiar with the roads and are veterans. We cannot make the scale of this battle larger. The ability of our special operations team members

, you still don’t know, you dress more like a Japanese than a Japanese!" After saying that, Chu Tian was amused by his own words.

To be fair, Chutian's plan is extremely maneuverable. With the capabilities and past performance of the special operations detachment, it can come and go freely among hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops. Regarding this, Tang Qiuli did not hesitate at all.

I have no doubt, and this is not a cruel tug-of-war. Both sides rely on the lives of soldiers to fill the gap, so the chance of danger is very high.

The current war situation is one-sided. The Japanese offensive is fierce, and the maneuvering space on each battlefield is limited. If nothing unexpected happens, the battle for the islands in the South Pacific will end within a week. Without detailed battlefield intelligence, it is impossible to grasp the best situation.

Chu Tian's plan was the best way to send troops. Thinking of this, Tang Qiuli couldn't help but feel a little moved, but he was still hesitant.

At this time, Yu Deshui, director of the Intelligence Department, and Shen Jun, director of the Investigation Department, came hand in hand. The two of them did not wait for Tang Qiuli to ask what was going on, and said: "Commander, Captain Chu's plan is the most powerful one at present."

It’s feasible, both of us support Captain Chu’s plan, and the Intelligence Bureau’s intelligence stations on various battlefields will also provide necessary assistance!”

Tang Qiuli looked at the three young colonels standing side by side. The cunning look in his eyes made him laugh and cry. Daqing, these three people had already discussed it in private. Chu Tian came forward, Yu Deshui and Shen Jun

To be honest, I have been convinced by Chu Tian.

Tang Qiuli deliberately made a serious face and said: "Okay, you three have colluded. If I, the division commander, don't agree, I will offend the public. Okay, Chutian, I order the special operations detachment to immediately

Form a number of teams and go deep into the fighting area to obtain intelligence. Yu Deshui and Shen Jun's departments will provide full assistance!"

Chu Tian, ​​Shen Jun and Yu Deshui all looked happy, stood at attention together, and replied loudly: "Yes, resolutely implement the division commander's order! Make sure to complete the task!"

Tang Qiuli waved his hand and said: "Don't rush to make guarantees. I require the special operations detachment to carry out this mission with zero casualties. If the casualties are too large, Chu Tian, ​​you have to give me an explanation. Also, reconnaissance

The focus should be on Luzon, you know what I mean? There will be the most intense competition between the Americans and the Japanese."

Chu Tian nodded thoughtfully, and Tang Qiuli then asked: "Chu Tian, ​​when are you going to take action?"

Chu Tian replied: "Commander, the mission is urgent. The four reconnaissance teams have been formed and are on standby. They can set off tonight!"

Tang Qiuli smiled and said: "It seems that you guys have been prepared for a long time! How can you be so sure to convince me that I will approve your actions?"

Chu Tian answered honestly: "I'm not sure, but we have to work hard. After discussing with the two division chiefs, Shen and I immediately called the detachment. Regardless of whether the division commander can approve our plan, we will prepare it first.

Once you approve it, you can pull it out immediately and don’t fight an uncertain battle. Don’t you always warn us like this?”

At midnight on June 4, the Andaman Sea outside Yangon Port was calm, and the night was as thick as ink, shrouding the boundless sea. Four speedboats flying the Japanese sun flag parted ways here, heading towards their respective destinations.

galloping away to its destination

, Chutian watched the three speedboats leave, instantly disappearing into the boundless darkness. He breathed out lightly and said to a young officer wearing a Japanese major's uniform beside him: "The order goes down, as quickly as possible,

Rush to Luzon."

At the same time, on Luzon Island, Manila, where the US military's Southeast Asia and South Pacific regional headquarters is stationed, the entire city fell into panic. The past was full of feasting and entertainment, skirts flying, and glitz. On the streets, US military jeeps were rushing towards each other.

The American soldiers, who were looking at the young women passing by, whistling wildly, and being drunk, all disappeared without a trace.

The officers who were walking in and out of the courtyard of the US military headquarters looked panicked. From time to time, a jeep came speeding up and stopped suddenly in the yard. The officers who jumped out of the car were sweating profusely. The sound of rapid footsteps echoed in the courtyard.

The long corridor added to the tense atmosphere. Needless to say, it must have brought bad news. Since three o'clock in the morning on June 1st, the US military headquarters has been in a disorderly panic.

In an office, Commander-in-Chief General MacArthur and Chief of Staff General Stilwell were sitting across from each other. Both of their expressions were very stern. To be precise, they looked gloomy. Upon closer inspection, there was also a hint of anger.

.

Just now, the two ended an unpleasant conversation. The cause of the matter was serious differences over a specific battle deployment, or in other words, a bold decision that could reverse the situation in the Luzon Island war.

The 103rd and 104th Divisions of the Japanese Fourteenth Army attacking Luzon Island, on the afternoon of June 3, attacked Batangas and the outskirts of Amoshir, west of Manila, which were only two kilometers away from Manila.

More than 100 kilometers, it is a key barrier for the defense of northern Manila. Once lost, the north of Manila will be undefendable. Both Commander-in-Chief General MacArthur and Chief of Staff General Stilwell realized that Batangas and Afghanistan

Moser Importance.

However, differences arose because of this, and this disagreement made the two commanders of the US military quarrel red-faced and in a mess.
