"this!"

Kimura Hitotaro was stopped. He was not a god who could calculate and calculate. How could he know if there would be such a terrifying artillery cluster on the battlefield in northern Myanmar?

However, when Mejiro Umezu asked this, Kimura Hitotaro had to answer directly. After pondering for a while, Kimura Hitotaro said in an uncertain tone:

"From the intelligence analysis obtained at present, the new type of artillery equipped by the Chinese military is strong in firepower and maneuverable, but the rate of fire is slow, and the ammunition consumption is extremely high. I believe the cost of this new type of weapon will not be low, and they have not completed large-scale equipment.

Moreover, the Chinese army is united on the surface, but in fact, there are many factions and they are used to leaving a trick in war. They also call it "Stay green mountains without worrying about burning firewood."

"The Hu Ben Army under Yang Fan is a self-contained and has never been in conflict with the National Government. So I think such a new weapon should only be in Yang Fan's hands at present, and it is not used as a surprise weapon until the critical moment, and the Kuomintang army should not be equipped yet.

Otherwise, the Chinese army would never have done the confidentiality work without any leakage, so that the Imperial Intelligence Network could not get any relevant information in advance."

"Soga! What Kimura Jun said is that such a huge ammunition consumption will definitely be a huge burden on the logistics supply of the Chinese army!"

"Baga! Damn the Chinese Army, the Great Japanese Imperial Army will definitely make you pay your blood debts and use your blood and life to pay tribute to the heroic spirits of the imperial warriors!"

After listening to Kimura Hitoro's analysis, Umezu Mijiro felt a sudden feeling, and then an inexplicable flame of anger and hatred suddenly surged in his heart.

After a pause, Mejiro Umezu continued: "There is a saying in China that 'a slaughtering army will win'. The imperial army suffered a shameful and despicable plot. Although the morale of the heavy casualties was hit, it also inspired the imperial army to unite against the enemy."

Kimura Hitotaro's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Umezu Mijiro with some concern and said, "Mr. Commander, what do you mean?"

Umezu Mijiro said viciously: "Yes, the blood debt needs to be paid for. The 18th Army must strengthen its offensive and repay the color in the shortest time."

Picking the persimmons softly, Meizu Mijiro is now full of anger and murderous aura. Although he doesn't dare to continue to force the defense line of the Salwin River, the 18th Army on the North Road can vent his anger on the national army.

Kimura Hitaro nodded and said, "This is not a problem. In the northern battlefield, the national army is only two armies against. Although their weapons and equipment are not bad, the imperial army still has an absolute crushing advantage.

As for the two Chinese troops around the defense line of Jingdong, Taungchi, it is a problem, but it doesn't matter much, because the Imperial Air Force can provide firepower support at any time.

In addition, the elite of the Chinese Expeditionary Force are on the battlefield in southern Myanmar. Although the 18th Army faced twice as many Chinese troops as they were, even if these two Chinese troops immediately went to support the defense line of Taungchi Jingdong, the 18th Army would probably still be able to handle it!"

"Sauga! The 18th Army has three A-type divisions, and its combat effectiveness is the strongest among the 4 armies!"

Umezu Mijiro nodded deeply, then said, "We must make some adjustments in the southern battlefield.

Before obtaining exact information, the attack on the Salwin River defense line will be temporarily stopped, but the frontal pressure will continue to be maintained.

As for the Maudani defense line, the Imperial Army must further strengthen its offensive efforts and take the lead in breaking the Maudani Fortress and the Motama City Fortress, and then launch a frontal attack from south to north."

"What the Commander-in-Chief said is that this is the most secure offensive strategy at present."

Hearing this, Hitotaro Kimura breathed a sigh of relief and said in his heart: Fortunately, it’s not crazy!

Temporary command post of the 18th Japanese Army.

While Anda 23 was looking at the military map, a Japanese communications officer rushed over: "Report to the commander, the Myanmar Expeditionary Army General Command urgently."

"Soga!"

Anda nodded at twenty-three, then reached out to take the message and read it.

"Nani? The Chinese Tiger Army equipped a new type of artillery with powerful firepower, which caused heavy casualties in the 19th Army's offense. What's going on?"

After reading the telegram carefully, Anda Twenty-three showed a meditative look.

The telegram did not mention the specific casualties of the 19th Army, but it was just a simple note, but Anda Twenty-three smelled a very unusual smell.

The General Command sent a telegram to expedite, highlighting the new artillery, and reminding the 18th Army to be alert, and the information contained in it would definitely not be simple.

"Your Excellency Commander, this is not surprising. The Chinese Expeditionary Force has received strong assistance from the Americans, and it is normal for them to obtain some advanced weapons and equipment."

After reading the message, Yoshihara did not show any worry, and then analyzed: "Similarly, the Empire is also stepping up the development of a series of advanced weapons, and many weapons and equipment have entered the trial production stage.

The information also said that this new artillery is insufficient in capacity, and only a small number of equipment is provided by the Hu Ben Army. Our top priority is to follow the orders of the General Command to capture the defense line of Taungchi Jingdong in the fastest time, and to restrain the Chinese army in large quantities to support the Southern Route Army to conquer Yangon!"

"Yo Xi! I'm too worried! If you pass the order, all departments must strengthen their offensives and not give the Chinese army a chance to breathe. In addition, the Imperial Air Force will further strengthen cooperative combat!"

Anda nodded.

The 18th Army was actually under great pressure. After all, it was a lonely army that penetrated deep into the rear of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and was somewhat weak in terms of weapons, equipment and logistics supply.

There is no problem in a short period of time, but I am afraid that the Chinese army will flock to it and consume it with a life-threatening game.

Especially now that the war in the southern battlefield is not going well, if the combat progress cannot be completed as scheduled and the 18th Army cannot successfully meet with the 18th Army, the 18th Army will definitely be in a dangerous situation of exhausting ammunition and food.

The only thing that made Anda Twenty-three feel at ease is that the Japanese Air Force is very powerful, which not only provides powerful firepower support, protects the 18th Army from the threat of the Chinese Air Force, but also can airdrop materials at critical moments to prolong their lives.

Buzz, not long after, the Japanese Air Force, which took off from military airports such as Baqi and Wai Ao in Thailand, flew to the defense line of Taungei.

Horizontal bombers crazily dropped bombs to bomb towns on a large scale, while dive bombers lowered their altitude to accurately bomb important military targets such as turrets, bunkers, and anti-aircraft guns.

The 6th Army and the 66th Army, which were already under great pressure, instantly amplified the pressure several times, causing panic for a while.
