The next battle situation was really as Zhang Chi thought, although the Japanese army had air superiority, but because the 200th Division occupied a geographical advantage and a relative advantage in supply, the Japanese 56th Division fought for two days and failed to defeat it.

By the third day, the Japanese 56th Division was a little deflated.

This was not only because the defense of the 200th Division prevented the 56th Division from advancing half a step, but also because the Japanese had planned to penetrate Lashio on April 29.

But now...... It's become an impossible task.

After thinking about it for a long time, Masao Watanabe had no choice but to report the situation to the commander-in-chief of the Japanese Burmese Front, Shozo Kawabe.

Originally, Watanabe Masao thought that Kawabe Shozo would be furious, but he didn't expect Kawabe Shozo to just answer coldly: "I already know the situation in the direction of Tangji, please Watanabe-kun don't give up and continue to attack!" ”

With that, he hung up.

This left Masao Watanabe confused...... In a situation where the strategic goal of interspersing Lashio can no longer be achieved, does it make sense to continue the offensive now?!

But Masao Watanabe didn't dare to ask more, so he could only continue to attack Tangyoshi, although the 56th Division suffered heavy casualties and ammunition could not keep up, but he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

April 29 is only five days away...... The closer the time is to this day, the more reassuring Zhang Chi becomes.

Because Zhang Chi knew one thing, the 56th Division marched 400 kilometers in five days to reach Lashio, and this kind of marching speed had almost reached the limit for the Japanese 56th Division on the dilapidated road in Burma.

(Note: The marching speed of the Japanese army was limited by the speed of the Type 95 and Type 97 tanks equipped by the Japanese army, especially the Type 97 tank, the maximum speed was only 38 kilometers per hour, and the actual speed was actually a little faster than walking.) ）

Now, it is impossible for the 56th Division of the Japanese Army to rush to Lashio, so it can almost be said that history will be rewritten.

Every time he thinks of this, Zhang Chi is in a happy mood as if he has won another battle...... He always felt that he was not fighting against the Japanese army, but against the trend of history, because every time he thought that he could successfully change history and change the fate of the expeditionary force, there would always be accidents of one kind or another that would make history "repeat itself".

This may be what people often call "fate".

But at this moment, Zhang Chijue was the one who finally grabbed the throat of fate.

"A long line!" Zhang Chi, who was in a happy mood, shouted at the platoon commander who was training: "Tell your tank, slow down and wait for the infantry to follow!" ”

"Yes!" The platoon leader answered, and after a few steps ran to the front, shouting orders at the tank.

Taking advantage of the few days when the 200th Division was facing the Japanese army in Tangji, the engineer regiment that had withdrawn to the second line immediately began intense training after a short rest.

This is mainly due to the fact that after fighting several battles on the battlefield, the officers and men of the engineer regiment feel from top to bottom that there are still many things to learn, and these things can often save their lives at critical moments, so all parts of the regiment spontaneously carry out training.

Of course, there are also those who take a negative attitude, such as the calf...... Since the sacrifice of the big cow, he has not said a word until now, and he has not even moved the dry food handed to him, and he has been holding the gun all day long and crying silently, and it is useless for his fellow villagers to talk about it.

For this, fellow villagers who had just become platoon commanders came to Zhang Chi several times.

"Company commander!" The fellow villagers were embarrassed and said to Zhang Chi: "Look at the calf like that...... Although we can all understand his brother's sacrifice, but ......"

The countryman's words were not finished, but Zhang Chi could understand his difficulties.

Doing nothing and listening to nothing like a calf made the platoon commander of his fellow villagers very difficult, and he could not establish his authority in front of his subordinates.

On the other hand, the townsfolk have nothing to do with the calf...... At this time, the calf even has the heart to seek death, what else can he do with him?!

"Did you do his ideological work?" Zhang Chi asked.

"Why not?!" The fellow townsman replied: "Everything has been said, and the hooligans want to beat him, saying that he will not be able to see the death of a big bull if he goes on like this, but he just won't listen!" ”

After thinking about it, Zhang Chi said: "Put this and that in advance, I will deal with it!" ”

"Yes!" The townsfolk answered and went with the rest of the warriors to train.

Seeing that the soldiers were busy training, Zhang Chi walked up to the calf who was curled up in the weeds like a dead man with a bag of dry food, threw the bag of dry food in front of the calf, and said, "You go, take advantage of the fact that others are not paying attention, and the guns and bullets are left!" ”

Hearing this, the little cow couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Zhang Chi with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"I'll pretend I didn't see it!" Zhang Chi said: "But don't let others find out, otherwise I won't be able to confess!" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Chi looked around, lowered his voice and raised his head into the depths of the jungle and said: "Go in this direction all the way, and you will see the road in two or three kilometers, find a way to change into the clothes of the Burmese people, just say that it is overseas Chinese, and you can return to China after walking along the road for a few days, understand?!" ”

"Company commander...... You...... Let me go? "Maybe it's because he hasn't eaten for a few days, and the calf can't even speak.

"Move fast!" Zhang Chi said: "Don't be a mother-in-law, go home and take good care of your parents and do your filial piety!" ”

"I ...... No parents! The calf replied: "They were killed by the Japanese when we were ten years old!" ”

"Hmm!" Hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned, and then said: "Anyway, you just go......"

"Company commander, I'm not leaving!" The little cow sat up and said, "Company commander, don't drive me away!" ”

"Hey! You ......" Hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but feel bitter: "Haven't you always wanted to leave?" Why are you ......?"

"Company commander!" The calf replied, "I have nowhere to go, I ...... I'm going to fight devils with you! ”

"You hit a ball!" Zhang Chi scolded a little angrily: "Look at your appearance, the wind blows and falls." I said calf...... Fighting is not a joke, don't drag down the troops if you can't think about it, you'll kill others like this! ”

"I ...... I can do it! As he spoke, the calf struggled to his feet, but before he could stand up straight, he fell to the ground with a thud.

When the townsfolk returned, they saw the calf eating with a wolf, and they couldn't help but open their mouths wide and couldn't close them for a long time.

"Company commander!" The fellow townsman whispered to Zhang Chi: "You can do it!" How to convince him?! ”

Zhang Chi smiled bitterly, he didn't know how to convince the calf.

"Company commander, there is a situation!" At this time, the hooligans who were more than ten meters away shouted loudly to the sky.

Following the hooligan's eyes, I saw a group of transport planes flying in the distance, and parachutes like dandelions descended from the sky......
