Chapter 658 Hu Bin's worries

Okamura Ningji is worried about Hu Bin now, because he doesn't know what Hu Bin's purpose is, if it is a few divisions in front of the 15th Army, Okamura Ningji is not worried, if it is Mandalay, then Okamura Ningji will be worried, and he will cut off the retreat of his 200,000 troops at once.

Coupled with Hu Bin's troop combat effectiveness, Okamura Ningji is also quite clear that against Hu Bin's 200,000 troops, if he doesn't have 300,000 in his hands, he is not sure to win, because Hu Bin will not fight you according to the routine at all, they are all stabbing the vital point, and if you stab it, you can take the lives of your own troops!

"Come on, mobilize 2 more divisions from our side to Mandalay, I feel that Hu Bin may fight Mandalay, that place is too important, it is a major passage for us to attack India, we must defend it." Okamura Ninji shouted, and a staff officer next to him heard it and immediately went to mobilize troops, but Okamura Ninji was still there thinking carefully!

"Commander, is Hu Bin's troops really so powerful? Now there are almost 4 divisions guarding Mandalay, and if you mobilize the troops of 2 divisions to go over, it will be 6 divisions and 150,000 people! The chief of staff looked at Okamura Ninji and asked.

"Be careful, you don't know how powerful Hu Bin is. When you know, it's too late, I'd rather be conservative than dare to rush in, in fact, now I really want to talk to Hu Bin, I don't fight China, he doesn't want to drag us down, let us fight India, but this is impossible, Hu Bin is impossible not to fight us.

Hey, our enmity with China is too deep, mainly because those young generals, after arriving in China, do whatever they want, and they don't know how powerful China is. They have ruined our empire. If we had taken over China more modestly, perhaps there would not have been such a big casualty at all! Okamura said with a sigh.

Now he doesn't dare to hold up in front of Hu Bin, and he will be beaten, Okamura Ninji knows this very well, and he really wants to talk to Hu Bin in his heart. I hope that Hu Bin's troops will not interfere with their own attack on India, and if Hu Bin does not interfere, he will dare to let go of his hands and feet to fight.

Now that Hu Bin's more than 100,000 troops are hiding in Myitkyina, he must put at least 200,000 troops to guard against Hu Bin, otherwise once Hu Bin breaks through, the Japanese troops will have a hard time.

"Send a telegram to Shojiro Iida, reminding him again that he must pay attention to Hu Bin's movements, and now Hu Bin's troops may have come out. The target is likely to be Mandalay, so that he must be vigilant, not to be quickly assaulted by Hu Bin's troops, as long as he holds on until dawn, our bombers will immediately go over to support!

Let him remember that Hu Bin's troops did not come out for a day, and he could not take it lightly for a day, so he had to wait for Hu Bin to act. We only knew his purpose, and now we don't know what Hu Bin's purpose is. Be sure to pay attention to Hu Bin. Okamura said to the chief of staff.

He didn't know if Iida Shojiro would pay attention to Hu Bin. Therefore, it is important to stress it again.

"Hey!" The chief of staff heard it and immediately went out.

And Okamura Ningji still looked at the intelligence carefully, he still hoped to find clues to the actions of Hu Bin's troops.

And Hu Bin is also looking at the intelligence at this time, although he doesn't want to fight Mandalay now, but he also has to pay attention to how many troops there are on the Mandalay side now, and whether they will attack at night. Reinforcements come, if reinforcements come, how should their troops fight.

"Report, Commander Wei's telegram!" At this time, a staff officer came with a telegram. Hand it to Hu Bin.

Hu Bin heard it, took the telegram and read it, during this time, Hu Bin and Wei Lihuang were both telegraphed contact, so now that Wei Lihuang has a telegram, Hu Bin must read it.

"Why is it like this?" Hu Bin saw Wei Lihuang's telegram and said with a frown.

"What's wrong?" Li Dalong looked at Hu Bin and asked.

"The devil's 25th Army broke through the defense line set up by Commander Wei's Mengxiu, and now Commander Wei is organizing troops to counterattack, and the troops of the 25th Army are so capable of fighting?" Hu Bin looked at Li Dalong and asked.

"Isn't it Yamashita Bongbun? He is known as the Malay Tiger, and I heard that he is very capable of fighting. Li Dalong heard it, looked at Hu Bin and said.

"Malay Tiger? Oh, forgot he still had that nickname. Hu Bin heard it, nodded, and thought about it carefully.

He knew that Wei Lihuang's troops might be in danger now, and once they broke through Mengxiu, then the devil's troops would be pushed to the Chinese border, and the bombers would be able to come over and bomb, and it would also pose a threat to the Chinese troops in Yunnan.

"Now that he hasn't sent us a telegram asking for help, what can we do now?" Li Dalong looked at Hu Bin and asked.

"There are so many things that can be done, what's the use of Yamashita Fengwen laying down a dream, if Lao Tzu tentatively attacks Mandalay, he has to come back." Hu Bin sneered and said.

"Report, the latest telegram, the devil has transferred 2 more divisions from Yangon, and continues to reinforce the Mandalay side." Mo Shu took a telegram to Hu Bin's side and said to Hu Bin.

"Two more divisions?" When Hu Bin heard it, he was stunned for a moment, and took the telegram and looked at it carefully.

"If reinforcements come now, it is estimated that they will not be able to reach Mandalay until tomorrow night!" Li Dalong thought for a moment and said to Hu Bin.

Hu Bin heard it and didn't speak. He is thinking about whether he wants to fight Mandalay, if the 25th Army breaks through the defense line of Wei Lihuang's troops, then it will form a threat to China, Hu Bin can't help it, but it also depends on how to save it, whether to send troops to reinforce or fight Mandalay.

If Mandalay can be taken down, then the 25th Army must retreat, if it does not retreat, it is a dead end, if it retreats, then for Mandalay, it is two sides of the enemy, the key is that after occupying Mandalay, the time for the devil to attack India on the ground will be delayed, this is not what Hu Bin wants to see.

"Tamad!" Hu Bin didn't know what to do for a while, so he scolded.

Because he is now in a dilemma, he can't watch Wei Lihuang's troops be defeated by devils, but if he wants to save it, he can only storm Mandalay, Mandalay now has more than 4 divisions of troops, plus 2 divisions from behind, that is, 6 more divisions, and bombers in the sky, such a strong attack, his own troops suffered very heavy casualties, and fighting Mandalay did not conform to the strategy he set at the beginning.

Hu Bin took out a cigarette, lit one, and walked outside the headquarters, the weather is not bad now, it is not yet the rainy season, but it is also fast, Hu Bin knows that there is not much time left for him to make a decision.

Hu Bin took a cigarette, walked outside, and then returned to the underground headquarters. At this time, Li Dalong and several staff officers all looked at Hu Bin, they felt that Hu Bin was in a difficult situation at this time, and they didn't know how difficult this difficulty was.

"Send a telegram to Wei Lihuang and ask him, first, if he can recapture Mengxiu, second, how long can he hold on after he is recaptured, and third, how long can he hold the border after Mengxiu is lost?" After Hu Bin came in, he said to a staff officer.

"They beat theirs, we beat ours, it doesn't matter, right?" Li Dalong looked at Hu Bin incomprehensibly and asked.

"It's a big deal, what if the devil wants to attack our China, break through the defense line of Commander Wei, it is Yunnan Pu'er, you say, we set up a logistics base in Yunnan, what will happen then? And once the 25th Army is killed, even if it does not continue to attack inside, and directly rests, it will be a time bomb for our Chinese troops, do you know what he will suddenly explode? Hu Bin looked at Li Dalong and said.

"There are more than 200,000 troops on Commander Wei's side, and all of them have been replaced with new equipment, and there are only 100,000 devils in the 25th Army, so if Commander Wei wants to block it, it's not too difficult, right? Besides, more than 200,000 people can block 100,000 devils, and it is no problem to block them for a month or two. Li Dalong said again.

"I know. But I'm worried that Okamura Ninji saw Yamashita Fengwen attacking Yunnan, and then he would increase our troops in China and open up land lines of communication, so that we would lose a lot, and what the opponent meant, we didn't find out at all now, so we can only wait.

However, it's okay if Yamashita Fengwen doesn't continue to attack, if he continues to attack and come in, Lao Tzu will have to kill him, and the lone army will go deep, Lao Tzu just likes to fight such troops. Hu Bin nodded and spoke.

He was not very worried about Yamashita Fengwen's troops, he was worried about the reinforcements sent by Okamura Ningji later, if he really sent more than ten divisions to Yamashita Fengwen's side, then it would be a huge pressure on the Chinese troops in the entire Yunnan, and it would be another general battle.

Now is not the time for China and Japan to fight a major war, but for the Japanese to fight with the British and the United States, let them consume first.

At this time, on Wei Lihuang's side, he had just received a telegram from the front line, Mengxiu had taken it back, but the troops suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the attacking troops of the two divisions of Fengwen under the mountain were defeated, and he was also relieved to hear the news.

He knew that there would be no big problems on Hu Bin's side, the current commander was Okamura Ningji, he had suffered two losses at Hu Bin's hands, if the troops were not well prepared, he would not dare to provoke Hu Bin, therefore, his own troops were the troops that Okamura Ning was fighting secondarily.

If he loses a line of defense, the hundreds of thousands of troops behind him will be a decisive battle, according to the decisive battle he discussed with Hu Bin before, it is better not to fight a decisive battle, fortunately, those commanders in front of him fought well.

"Call Hu Bin back and let him fight his own, don't worry about it on my side, I can drag the devil, or fight according to the plan we agreed on before, if you can, you can find a chance to kill the troops of the 25th Division on my side, they are too arrogant, my troops have no way to kill them quickly!" After Wei Lihuang saw the telegram sent by Hu Bin, he said to the staff officer. (To be continued.) )
