But on this point, the devil is wrong.

When Zhang Chi led his troops to take over the big banyan tree the next day, he found that this form of light and darkness would be further strengthened at dawn...... At this time, it is the rainy season, the sky is gloomy and the shade of the big banyan tree is very dense, so there is still a dark shade under the banyan tree, and there is a light outside the banyan tree, which means that even the flare can be saved.

The Japanese obviously did not expect this to happen, and hesitated for a long time before attacking the big banyan tree again.

As usual, they first pulled a cannonball at the banyan tree, and there were shells for both fuses...... This is obviously the experience of the Japanese during the attack last night, the shells of the instant fuse will blow up the branches of the banyan tree like shrapnel, and the delayed fuse will pass through the canopy of the banyan tree and hit the banyan tree under the banyan tree and then explode.

The combination of these two shells and the indiscriminate attack on the banyan tree can indeed cause chaos around the banyan tree.

But the problem is that there are many banyan holes on this big banyan tree that can be hidden, and some of them are not natural but dug by the warriors, and even the warriors have dug holes in the direction of the devil in the face of the banyan hole, so that the banyan tree stands like a bunker in the middle of the path where the devil is advancing.

When the devil fires the cannon, the soldiers only need to shrink into the banyan cave...... Regardless of the wind and rain outside, the warriors hiding in the several banyan caves up and down inside should not stand still.

Then the devil charged under the sound of cannons.

This scene almost felt a little incredible in Zhang Chi's eyes...... The devils almost had no hiding place along the way, and if there was a hiding place, it was the craters they had blown up with their own shells or the corpses of Japanese soldiers.

However, these "hiding places" can play a very limited role, because the warriors in the upper banyan cave are condescending to those devils, and the warriors can comfortably hide in the branches and leaves to aim at the target.

As a result, only one gunshot was heard, and the Japanese soldiers who rushed up were brought down one after another, and the hit rate could almost be said to be the elimination of an enemy with every shot.

If the ghost charges faster, then no problem, the soldiers also deployed a few machine guns on the banyan tree, and as soon as the machine guns rang out, the devils would be swept to the ground in pieces.

So it's obvious. As long as there are enough supplies in Xujia Village, it will be difficult for devils to step into Xujia Village.

That's when Stilwell called.

"Zhang, you guessed it right, there is really a problem with the supply of the Japanese." Stilwell on the other end of the phone couldn't suppress his excitement: "After discussion, we decided to accept your opinion to fight this battle into a protracted battle, our transportation opportunities are constantly airdropping materials to Xujia Village, of course, there are other positions, you must be prepared to hold on for a long time, it is best to be able to hold on for one to two months, so that the new 22nd Division can be reequipped and can become a new force to take over." What do you think? Can it last so long?! ”

"No problem!" Zhang Chi replied without thinking about it.

He was confident that it was not the Chinese soldiers who could not afford to spend here, but the Japanese soldiers.

In fact, if the war situation continues like this. The situation of the Japanese army is not necessarily worsening...... Zhang Chi guessed correctly, there was indeed a problem with the supply of the Japanese army, but on the one hand, the Japanese army had a high degree of obedience and unimaginable endurance, just like Mutaguchi Ryoya said: "The Japanese have been a herbivorous people since ancient times, and you are surrounded by such dense jungles, and you actually report a lack of food, what is going on?" ”

This spirit of Mutaguchi Ryoya, especially in the 18th Division, was very thorough, and sometimes the Japanese soldiers' daily rations were just a rice ball, and they were able to hold on.

On the other hand, even the Japanese army can still get the support of the Burmese people. From time to time, the Japanese army would get some food from the Burmese people, but it was really not possible for the Japanese army to carry out secret raids on Burmese villages...... That is, to kill all the Burmese in a village, put all their surplus food in their pockets, and put the crime on the Chinese, British and American forces.

In addition, the Japanese army also stored a certain amount of food and ammunition in important cities such as Mandalay and Bhamo in case of emergency.

Therefore, if you want to drag down the two wings of the Japanese army within a month or two, it is a bit underestimating the Japanese army.

But then something happened, and it didn't seem like a big deal on the surface. However, it directly or indirectly helped the expeditionary force to drag down the two wings of the Japanese army.

This happened in Mandalay.

As happened in Yangon, the Japanese army would hide their inner bestiality because of the war when they were fighting, but once they were stationed in a certain city, especially in a city with many women, they would inevitably be confused.

At this time, the Japanese army was still controlling itself. They would choose to go to a brothel or secretly kidnap them, and the Japanese officers would also act in front of the Burmese people and punish all the subordinates who committed adultery, so everything was still under control...... Although the Burmese people were already dissatisfied with the Japanese army in their hearts. But it did not reach the point of intolerable hatred, they still believed that the Japanese army had come to save them, thinking that these crimes were just the actions of some "disobedient" individual soldiers.

But this apparent stability was shattered by one thing.

This evening, Nila made an appointment with Mamaidan, a college classmate she attended, but she couldn't wait for anyone, with a hint of ominous premonition, Nila followed the route where Mamaidan might come, but she found that Mamaidan had been **** in a small alley and was out of shape.

It turned out that this was a Japanese soldier Shaozuo and several subordinates who met Mamaidan on the road when they were drunk, and because they were drunk, they didn't kill people afterwards......

Shocked, Nila informed Mamaidan's father at the same time as she took her to the hospital.

And this Mamedan's father is none other than the 1st Division of the Burmese Independent Volunteer Army, which cooperated with Sakurai Province.

Soon, Dalai learned from his daughter that this was done by the Japanese army, so Dalai found Sakurai Shizo as soon as possible.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General!" Dalai said to Sakurai with an angry face, "How can your soldiers do this? They have committed unforgivable crimes against my daughter, and I hope you will find them out and will give them to me! ”

"What? How could such a thing happen?! Sakurai looked at Tatsurai in surprise.

In fact, when he heard that Dalai's daughter had an accident, Sakurai was so angry that he could guess that his subordinates did it.

"Dalaijun, have you asked clearly?" Sakurai was still pretending to be confused: "Are you sure it was the imperial army who did it?" ”

"Of course!" Dalai gritted his teeth and said, "My daughter said clearly, there is also a Shaozuo among them, and this Shaozuo has a scar on the left side of his face!" ”

Hearing this, Sakurai couldn't help but scold a few bastards in his heart, these guys don't do things cleanly, leaving such obvious evidence, what should he do?! (To be continued.) )
