The four hundred and twentieth chapter is completed

"Captain Sun, is this information about the movement of the Japanese army true?"

After clearing his throat, Chen Cheng turned to look at Sun Liren. He had to confirm it twice.

"Report to the commander, the 54th Division of the Japanese army has approached Lashio, and the 55th Division, the 49th Division and the 72nd Independent Mixed Brigade have all arrived in the Kazan area north of Mandalay, and are heading to Xibu and Mengya in batches."

"This is the result of joint investigation by our reconnaissance force and the US military intelligence department. It is still time to report it. It is conservatively estimated that no less than 50,000 Japanese soldiers came this time."

Wow…

Sun Liren spoke in shock. When he heard this news, all the officers showed unbelievable expressions. Who would have expected that the Japanese who had suffered a defeat would move so quickly.

Liao Mingyu stroked his chin and thought to himself that most of these Japanese troops should have moved to northern Myriad before the end of the Myriad Tsingapore battle, trying to support the five divisions trapped in Myriad Tsingapore, but the Japanese did not expect that the battle would end so quickly.

However, in terms of intelligence, we have to admire Sun Liren. He himself was completely unclear about the other detailed information except for knowing that a large number of Japanese troops came. It seems that he had to urge Yu Sifan and the others to work hard after returning.

"So many people have to be sent to Myanmar."

"There are several troops over there now. Do you need additional reinforcements?"

"What does it mean!? Let our army stationed in India be in front, you bastards are watching the show behind? Why?"

"Who the fuck is watching the show behind you? I, the 71st Army, didn't work hard?"

"It's time for you to try it..."

"If you want to go, our teacher has lost more than half of it, and it has not been added yet!"

...

The conference room suddenly became noisy, and the officers of each unit were so quarreled that their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they were discussing the direction of their next actions in a fierce manner. However, it was obvious that most people did not want to go to Myanmar to drill in the forest again.

"Oh my God, Sun, see what they are doing..." Stilwell looked at the scene in front of him with discomfort. He really didn't understand why these Chinese people were retorting like enemies.

Sun Liren shook his head and smiled bitterly. This situation is very common in the national government army that talks about faction-holding mountains. Everyone wants to preserve their strength, and there are too few people who are willing to stand up and face it positively.

"Okay! Stop quarrel! How can one be as polite as a commoner?!"

Wei Lihuang knocked on the table and scolded impatiently:

"When the war is over, who can survive alone? Since you are unwilling to go abroad to fight, then I will command it!"

Wei Lihuang's passionate words calmed the conference room again, but there were still many people who looked at their noses and noses, and made little plans without making any statements.

"Commander of the Guard, please calm down. If there are Japanese troops stationed in India in Myanmar, they cannot make a fuss. Western Yunnan only needs to provide us with logistical support." At this time, Sun Liren stood up.

It is better to begging for others than to ask for others. Besides, those guys who fight Wushao may not be able to perform well even if they go to Myanmar. Instead, it is better to fight as much as they should according to the current situation.

"General Sun, there are still more than 100,000 troops in western Yunnan now. Don't be anxious. You should prepare to retreat." Chen Cheng raised his hand and told him not to be so excited.

"But..." Sun Liren also wanted to explain.

"There is nothing good, but the army stationed in India has returned to the country to prepare for preparations. The head of state has given him ten thousand instructions. Please obey the order!"

Chen Cheng's attitude slightly worsened, indicating that there is no need to discuss this matter.

The tens of thousands of people in the New First Army and the New Sixth Army were trained by the Americans, and the weapons and equipment in their hands were the highest in the country. The heavy artillery and heavy armored troops can be said to be arrogant. There is no reason for Chiang Kai-shek to hold such an elite unit.

Although he was unwilling to accept it, Sun Liren also understood that the head of state had suffered another suspicion.

In the past year or so, the troops were all in India, and the Chongqing man had almost no control over them, and his approaching closer and closer to the Americans made the other party gradually lose trust.

The needle at the bottom of the sea of ​​Chiang Kai-shek's heart is not cannon fodder. Instead of letting them continue to consume on the battlefield in Myanmar, it is better to transfer back to the country as soon as possible and reorganize it and increase control of this force, otherwise it will be troublesome after leading the Americans to deviate.

"Okay, your western Yunnan side will draw two troops to Myanmar to replace General Sun and the others. As for the 88th Army..."

"General Chen, I strongly agree with the transfer order of the head of state, but our army's position is too high. The top priority should be to solve the Japanese counterattack first to ensure that there is no problem with the international aid line before deciding other matters. Otherwise, if there is a problem with the China-India highway, our efforts over the past two years will be in vain."

Liao Mingyu quickly jumped out to express his attitude, and was about to be transferred back. If he didn't say a few more words, he would really be "good at the same time" with his brother in his hand.

"Well... you said something, but..."

Chen Cheng hesitated. As the former said, the position of the New 88th Army was opposite the Japanese. Once the whole body was moved, it was not possible to retreat.

But similarly, he knew a little bit about the 88th Army... or the Third Honor Division. Just like the Indian Army, he was first-class and strong in terms of combat effectiveness and equipment.

Although I was not sure how Liao Mingyu made a group of cannon fodder into elites, Chiang Kai-shek was still not relieved to let the troops stay isolated abroad for a long time, and at the same time hesitated about the former, giving great privileges and not entirely trusting.

"Let's do this, your 88th Army is temporarily responsible for the defense of Lashio. When the support troops arrive, you will withdraw from Myanmar. I will make detailed arrangements later, but... don't make it difficult for me to do in front of the head of state."

In the end, Chen Cheng made a decision. He could still be clear about the importance of the current situation. He would not believe that the problem would be great if he explained to the head of state.

"Yes! After completing the task, I will definitely obey the arrangements of the superiors and will never make things difficult for the superiors!"

Now I can't care so much, Liao Mingyu quickly stood at the right time and agreed, while looking at the same time.

Having said that, who can tell the following things accurately? Anyway, as long as people are in Myanmar, it is enough. The old saying goes well and will not be subject to foreign military orders. When I establish a base, it will not be controlled by others.

"Yeah... OK!"

Chen Cheng couldn't help laughing. The more he looked at Liao Mingyu, the more he felt like he was. Who doesn't like his capable and able to speak? If this kid continues to develop like this, he will definitely be among the people. His "civil and engineering system" must have his own place.

The meeting was basically finalized here. Except for the 88th Army who continued to stay in Myanmar to defend the Japanese, the 38th Division of the New First Army will temporarily stay for cooperation in combat, but other troops will have to withdraw to Kunming for reorganization.

All senior officers of the Indian Army stationed in India were transferred back to the country for further arrangements, especially those of Sun Liren, Liao Yaoxiang and other senior commanders. This result also brought some regrets to Sun Liren who wanted to continue to run on the battlefield.

In addition, the western Yunnan Expeditionary Force sent two troops to support northern Myanmar, but something went wrong with which general led his army out of Myanmar.

The reasons for a few old slippers are all kinds of strange things, such as the army that suffered too much loss and the recruits too many lack combat experience... In the final analysis, it is just one sentence: whoever is happy will go, I won’t go anyway.

In the end, another naughty leader, Yu Xiaoqing stood up to take the lead, and then the farce ended.

Stilwell was helpless. The Chinese were determined to withdraw their troops. Command is simple. When it comes to good luck, the troops will listen to your order, but if they really don’t want to continue investing, you can’t change anything.

Fortunately, there are still some troops left in Myanmar. It seems that the President has to put pressure on their head of state. It is best to grant themselves clear command and dispatch power, otherwise it will be too restricted.
