During this time, the troops have been in full swing training, and this training is also a joint training with the US military unit.

It is understandable that Zhang Chi will be able to take advantage of this point to strengthen the American tactics of the Chinese army in the future battlefield, which will naturally require joint training, and at the same time, Stilwell also wants to take this time to strengthen the American tactics of the Chinese army.

But in fact, the so-called American-style tactics are actually to teach the Chinese army to push flat and how to use ammunition extravagantly, because what they teach is: once the two armies meet, they will first bombard them with artillery, and after the bombardment is over, they will observe whether there is anyone, and if there are people, they will continue to bombard, and if no one is there, they will send tanks and infantry to push forward.

This tactic is understandable if it is trench warfare in an open area, but it does not seem to be applicable in jungle warfare, because there are always a few soldiers hidden in many unexpected places in jungle warfare, so after the bombardment, you will think that the people have almost fought the enemy, but as soon as the troops go up and find that there is still an enemy, they will retreat and bomb again...... Tossing and turning a few times, I am afraid that the position has not yet been defeated, and the enemy's reinforcements have already arrived.

And for this American-style sea of fire attack, the Japanese army seems to have a countermeasure.

This countermeasure is that only a small number of troops will be placed on the front line, and the main force will be deployed in the concealment department to wait, and the US army will attack in a sea of fire and injure a few people on the front line...... There is no doubt that this refueling tactic can minimize the damage caused by the US military fire.

As a result, the US military's tactics of sea of fire have become a kind of "chicken rib" tactic of investing heavily and killing less, and the Japanese army seems to be unable to finish fighting no matter how it fights, while the logistics of the US army may collapse as a result.

However, all the officers of the Chinese army, including Zhang Chi, did not speak.

This is because it is useless to say it, the US military at this time is still obsessed with their American tactics, and even Stilwell believes that a large part of the credit for the victory in the last battle is the use of American tactics...... Of course, this is true that the Chinese army in the last battle suffered a lot of losses because of the use of fire tactics in some battles, and the Japanese troops who were not adapted to this powerful firepower suffered a lot, but on the whole the Chinese officers still played according to the Chinese style.

So the U.S. military instructors, including Stilwell, simply wouldn't heed the advice of the Chinese instructors.

Second, it is because Chinese officers are also happy to see this kind of training.

The advantage of such training is that ammunition can be used in large quantities...... The artillery in the expeditionary force often had a short training cycle because they were rushed into battle. The fastest training was sent to the battlefield in less than a month.

It is almost unthinkable in the country to train artillery in just one month, but here it is a reality...... The reason is that except for the previous week, when they were studying theoretical knowledge, they basically used cars or jeeps to pull cannons and run around the jungle for the rest of the time. Of course, in the process of running, it is to practice firing guns.

It was all live ammunition, and it can be said that it is an endless live ammunition. After playing like this for a month, even a novice will be able to point to where to ...... This ability to feed with shells is definitely the envy of domestic artillery.

What is exciting is that the new 38th Division and the new 22nd Division have been replenished and redressed at Sunbrabeng, so the new First Army was also formed, with Zheng Dongguo as the commander of the army, and in fact under the unified command of Davis, the commander of the Galahad unit.

This greatly increased the strength of the forces that the expeditionary force could engage in a counteroffensive. And the rainy season is coming to an end. On the other hand, the various preparations for Stilwell's interspersed plan are also almost underway, and it can be said that everything is ready and only the east wind is owed...... I think that at the beginning, only one new division defeated the two wings of the Japanese 18th Division, but now the expeditionary force has three divisions, and they are all three divisions with very strong combat effectiveness, so it should be easy to deal with the Japanese 18th Division in front of them.

However, the time of the counteroffensive was postponed again and again, and finally there was no movement from above until the dry season came.

This made Zhang Chi feel a little strange, especially since he also knew that Stilwell had a plan to intersperse...... The more secret the plan, the better, and if the time is delayed any longer, I am afraid that there will be long nights and dreams.

What Zhang Chi didn't know was. At this time, Stilwell was also in a hurry to jump to his feet,

"Go ****** peanuts (******)!" Stilwell scolded: "I was not prepared enough to prevaricate again and again...... I'm afraid that his preparations will have to wait until the next century! ”

It turned out that Stilwell's counteroffensive plan was a bit loud, and he hoped that the expeditionary force would be able to fight from Burma to China. At the same time, the Chinese side can cooperate with the attack from the inside out, so that it can create a two-sided attack on the Japanese army, so that it cannot take care of both the end of the day.

Although this plan seemed perfect, it was not always true in actual combat, because the Japanese army had built a very strong fortified high ground in the western Yunnan area. The Chinese army, which was fighting from the inside out, could not use the tactics of fire like the Burmese expeditionary force, so the Chinese troops fighting from the inside out had a particularly difficult attack, and could hardly match the expeditionary force fighting from the outside in.

As for ******'s low enthusiasm for this battle, it is because he wants to preserve his strength...... Instead of sending troops up to fight the Japanese army. It is better to sit back and wait for the US military to win the battle in the Pacific theater, and then the Japanese army will naturally transfer troops out of China.

"General!" "Why don't we reduce China's U.S. aid to force it to send troops?" Davis suggested. ”

Stilwell shook his head: "Peanut's excuse for delaying the dispatch of troops is that there is too little American aid, which makes it impossible for him to organize enough troops to launch a counteroffensive, if we reduce US aid again, then it will just find an excuse for him!" ”

"I see!" Davis nodded, "So, maybe we can change the method?" ”

"How?" Stilwell asked.

"For example......" David thought for a moment and said, "I heard that there are many factions in the Chinese army, why don't we release the news and tell the Chinese that no matter which force is willing to participate in this counteroffensive, we will provide it with equipment!" ”

"Great idea!" Stilwell couldn't help but praise: "That's it...... In order not to create a bigger enemy, Peanut can only listen to us and send troops! ”

This is a good idea, and this is exactly what Stilwell did in history, and as Stilwell expected, ****** had to send troops to western Yunnan in the end.

But the problem is that ......****** is the president of a country after all, and what he hates most is being coerced, so although Stilwell's blunt methods have achieved their goals, they have caused contradictions between Stilwell and ******.

But Stilwell didn't buy ******'s account, so the contradiction between the two Yu played Yu Lie in the end.
