Chapter 971

"Well! The situation is really tense, and it may be about to break out at any time."

Yang Fan nodded without shyness, and then said in a deep voice: "This time is very difficult, we must be prepared for both."

The troops under the Myanmar Expeditionary Army have been in place, and the Northern Route Army, with more than 100,000 people, has long begun to head north along the east bank of the Salwin River and has now arrived at the Shan State Plateau in the middle and upper reaches.

More than a dozen jungle special forces, with special forces as the backbone force, had already launched a blocking guerrilla war with the Japanese Northern Route Army in a jungle area with high mountains and dense forests a week ago.

So in a strict sense, the Myanmar Battle has begun, but it has not yet completely exploded.

"Brother Fan, what do you mean?"

Wu Qian's delicate body trembled and said with great concern: "Now people in Yangon are panic, and rumors that the Japanese devils are about to enter Yangon and that our Chinese Expeditionary Force will be wiped out everywhere!

I know that this must be the devil agents and Myanmar traitors lurking in the dark who are bewitching people's hearts and causing panic, but even many people on our side think this time is probably a bit of a bad situation!"

Xia Yu also became particularly nervous, with her big black and shiny eyes staring at Yang Fan. Although she didn't ask questions, her expression was full of worry and inquiries.

"Don't be nervous, things are not as serious as you think. The Japanese have a great show this time, and they do look a bit intimidating, but our 500,000-600,000-600,000-500-600,000-500-600-500-500-600-500-600-500-600-600-600-600-600

Yang Fan smiled and comforted her, and then said seriously: "But it will definitely not be peaceful recently. For the sake of safety, you must pay attention to safety recently. Japanese planes may come at any time. In the event of chaos, there will definitely be enemy spies taking advantage of the waters!

If the security situation worsens further, I will arrange for you to evacuate to northern Myanmar at any time. You must be mentally prepared!"

"We understand that we will never cause trouble for Brother Fan!"

"Brother Fan, you should also pay more attention to safety!"

Wu Qian and Xia Yu nodded repeatedly. At this time, they could not help much except obey and not cause trouble!

"Okay! That's it tonight. You all have a break early. Also, starting tomorrow night, don't wait for me stupidly if it's too late, because the days ahead are completely unroutine, and maybe you'll have a night out!"

I have been too busy and tired recently. Yang Fan really doesn’t have the extra energy to deal with his beautiful wife and concubine, so he can only wave his hand and say goodbye casually.

At five o'clock in the morning on May 2, when the sky was just dawn, the headquarters of the Myanmar Expeditionary Army of Thailand's Tak Province, Japan was already brightly lit.

The senior Japanese generals and staff officers who stayed in the headquarters, including Umezu Mijiro, Kimura Hitaro, and Higuchi Yoichiro, who were left behind in the headquarters' war room, gathered in the headquarters' war room for the final deduction and planning before the battle.

Kimura Hitaro picked up a wooden stick and pointed to the military map and said, "His Excellency Commander-in-Chief, the 18th Army of the 23rd Lieutenant General Anda arrived in the Menghang area of ​​Myanmar at 4 pm yesterday. Due to the repeated harassment and blocking of Chinese guerrilla forces on the way, the 18th Army was nearly two days later than the scheduled time!"

"Andajun is still very capable. There are many uncertainties in marching in the mountain jungle area with complex terrain. Although it is two days late, it is still acceptable!"

Meijiro Umezu nodded with satisfaction, and then said happily: "In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are futile. The Great Japanese Empire will soon let these sinister and despicable Chinese soldiers know the power of the Imperial Imperial Army and pay a price of ten or a hundred times!"

However, at this time, Kimura Hitaro said in a serious tone: "However, as expected, the Chinese army once again used the same trick and sent a large number of elite troops who were good at fighting jungle wars to ambush along the way. The number of casualties of the 18th Army reached more than 3,200, of which 2,100 imperial warriors were killed and broken!"

"Baga, how could there be such serious casualties? Before the troops set off, have we emphasized and deduced the jungle war with Andajun many times?

And there are special jungle war special forces accompanying you, why can you still do it!"

After hearing this, Mejiro Umezu suddenly felt unhappy. Although the casualties of more than 3,200 people were killed or injured, for the 18th Army, which had a total force of over 100,000, it was just skin injuries, and there was no injury at all.

However, it is not pleasant to have nearly an infantry corps force before the official starts.

"This is indeed not entirely blamed General Anda!"

Kimura Hitaro explained: "I have to say that the Chinese army is indeed very good at fighting jungle wars, especially in jungle ambush wars.

The Chinese army often used battalions as combat units, and sometimes even used platoons as combat units, and camouflaged in advance in the jungle that the Imperial Army must pass.

Because the jungle terrain is too complex and the vegetation is too dense, the Imperial Army often cannot find ambush even when they walk in front of the Chinese army.

So when the vanguard of the Imperial Army entered the ambush circle, the Chinese army suddenly launched an attack, and the Imperial Army, which had rushed to fight, had already lost most of its manpower before it could react.

The remaining personnel are under the powerful cross-fire network of the Chinese army, and they cannot organize a decent counterattack at all, and they can only let the Chinese army come and go freely."

Umezu Mijiro frowned and said, "Didn't you tell them to send more scouts before?"

Kimura Hitaro shook his head and said, "General Anda naturally sent a scout, and the number and frequency were more than usual, but it was still useless."

Umezu Mijiro frowned and said, "You can't find the existence of the Chinese ambush?"

"Yes, I can't find it at all! The jungle environment is too complicated. As long as you have a little disguise, the scouts are already very careful, but they often can't find it even if they come to them.

The most important thing is that the Chinese army has investigated the marching route of the Imperial Imperial Army in advance. They set up multiple ambushes where the Imperial Army must pass. The ubiquitous ambush made the Imperial Imperial Army unable to defend, but they must not bite the bullet and open a bloody road!"

After a pause, Kimura Hitotaro took a deep breath and said, "This is the terrible part of the jungle area. You may encounter unknown sneak attacks and ambushes anytime and anywhere, just in line with the old saying in China!"

"Baga! A group of cowards who only know how to be sinister and deceitful will compete with the imperial army with a dignified battle!"

After listening to Kimura Hitotaro's statement, Umezu Mijiro was so angry that he jumped up and cursed. He had heard of the horror of jungle war from Iida Shojiro before, so he took it seriously and did a lot of homework for it, but found that it was useless.
