Chapter 39 Interception
"Stop, stop" Jack, who held his left hand high, walked to the middle of the road, and it was Zhao Zhi's convoy that he intercepted. Zhao Zhi was the last group to evacuate Yangon, and although they were all traveling by car, they only caught up with the last Jewish regiment by dawn. The Prime Minister's envoy, who had discovered that the Jews had disappeared without falling, showed that after inspecting the merchant ships anchored on the docks to no avail, he concluded that the Jews had gone to China along the Burma Highway, so he ordered the British troops along the route to intercept all the convoys on the Burma Highway and to find Capone who had mixed in with the Jews.
The envoy's mind was not on the Jews, his real purpose was Capone, the governor of Burma for many years, and the envoy did not value Capone's ability to contribute to internal affairs, but the gold and jewels that Capone had accumulated. As far as the current situation is concerned, the once powerful Britain has become a declining empire, and people with a little brain are looking for a way out.
"What's the matter? How did the car stop? Rowling, who was sleeping in Zhao Zhi's arms, felt the convoy stop and looked up, as if she had not yet reached the next stronghold of the Jewish Legion.
Zhao Zhi patted Luo Lin's back and coaxed her to continue sleeping in a low voice, "It's okay, I've already let Ye Zi go to the front, you can sleep for a while, I'll call you when you get to the place" Zhao Zhi and their convoy were trucks in addition to cars, and the cars were all mercenaries under Zhao Zhi, and in the trucks were the Jewish gangsters and some belongings who had evacuated Yangon with him last. The Jewish legion that Yu Dazhi led was only 10 miles behind Zhao Zhi and them, so Zhao Zhi was not worried that he would be stopped by the British army on the road, because he knew that the British army would never send tens of thousands of British troops to intercept him at one time.
"What's the matter?" Carrying a Thomson, he slowly paced to the front of the convoy and stood face to face with Jack, the muzzle of Thomson's gun in his hand was aimed at Jack's chest, intentionally or unintentionally. "We're Thunder Defense, didn't you see the sign on our door? Why block our path? When Ye Kong asked, the mercenaries who got down from the car one after another were doing their own thing.
Smoking, slow, looking around, the mercenaries who got off the car were almost not idle, if a veteran with battlefield experience was on the scene, you would find that the position of these seemingly sparsely standing mercenaries was the best position in the event of a conflict between the two sides, even if the number of mercenaries was much smaller than the British army opposite, it was entirely possible for these mercenaries to suppress the firepower of the British army on the opposite side in the first time.
"Tell all of you to get out of the car, we have to inspect the vehicle" Jack naturally didn't eat Ye Kong's set, and still had a tough face. Ye Kong's height is less than 180 cm, and the tall Jack is nearly 2 meters tall, in addition to the arrogance in the bones of the British, Jack, who is full of indifference, has completely ignored the Thomson submachine gun facing him, in his opinion, this short and cowardly Chinese does not dare to shoot at himself, maybe this Thomson is not even loaded with bullets.
Looking at the rifles deliberately raised by the British soldiers behind Jack, a trace of killing intent flashed in Ye Kong's eyes, and he had been in battle for a long time with his husband, and he had never been pointed at by a circle of people with guns like this. Ye Kong slowly withdrew his left hand behind him, made a few gestures to the mercenaries behind him, and then looked at the British soldiers opposite with a face that was about to die. A few mercenaries took a few steps forward, and Thomson, who loaded the bullet, pointed straight at Jack and them, and the two sides were at a stalemate on the road.
Ye Kong knew that the convoy was not afraid of checking, but wasn't there still Capone's family in the car, since the British army would block the road to check with such a big move, maybe it was for Capone, so Ye Kong couldn't let this group of British soldiers pedal to inspect anyway. Jack: There were only 100 of them, and maybe they were carrying radios or something, and it didn't take much effort to drive a few trucks from a distance, and more than 100 British soldiers jumped out of the compartments, and they also brought a few machine guns.
The British army called reinforcements, Ye Kong was also watching the time, the news that the convoy was intercepted by the British army was notified to Yu Dazhi behind him by walkie-talkie at the first time, it was only 10 miles away, Yu Dazhi They would definitely come over within an hour, 300 to 20,000, Ye Kong wanted to see if these British soldiers were bold enough. "Please get out of the way, my boss is going to Wan Town to discuss a business, our convoy doesn't have the people and things we are looking for so much" Ye Kong made a look, and the two mercenaries who knew about it stepped forward and entangled with those British soldiers to delay time.
"My boss is a man of status, he is good friends with your governor, Mr. Capone, if you delay my boss's time, I'm afraid you can't afford this responsibility" The mercenary wanted to scare the British soldiers with a conversation, but in exchange for a burst of laughter from the other party.
"Shit, Capone himself has become a fugitive, your boss should obediently obey the order and come down to accept our inspection" The British soldiers on the other side laughed and leaned back, Capone was the fugitive named by the commander to capture Yangon, and there were even people who would borrow the name of a fugitive to scare people, these guys are really funny.
The smile of the British soldiers made Ye Kong and the mercenaries feel a chill in their hearts, the speed of the prime minister's envoy was really fast enough, and the orders were all in the hands of the garrisons along the way. Glancing at the mercenaries, Ye Kong pretended to be smoking, and slowly rubbed in front of the car in which Zhao Zhi was riding and knocked on the window, "Sir, the British troops blocking the road are coming for Governor Capone, I estimate that the order to capture Governor Capone alive has been issued to all the British troops along the kilometer, what should we do?" ”
Considering the problem of the back road, there were only about 30 mercenaries who followed Zhao Zhi to evacuate Yangon, and there were only 100 people in the truck, including those gangsters in the truck. The other party is more than 300 well-trained soldiers, but Ye Kong's side still has to divide people to protect Capone's family, so it is never a good way to directly clash with the other party.
"Don't worry, don't forget that there are still big ambitions in the back? There are still two Tiger tanks and trucks in the two strongholds that they withdrew with Dazhi, I guess they are almost there" Xu is Zhao Zhi's timing was just right, and as soon as his words fell, the two sides on the road felt a burst of vibration under their feet, but after a minute or two, the vibration under their feet became stronger and stronger.
"Tank, it's a tank" A British machine gunner pointed to the rear of the convoy in horror, everyone looked in the direction of his finger, a tank was revealing its huge body from the corner of the road, and the source of the vibration under everyone's feet came from this driving tank. There are also tanks in the British troops stationed in Burma, but the British-made Sherman tanks assigned to them are obviously not comparable to this behemoth.
The convoy intercepted by the British army avoided the edge of the roadbed, and the rumbling tanks drove all the way along the road that was given up, and as the tanks approached, the British soldiers who were still staring at the mercenaries just now were a little weak. The British soldiers who had been to Rangoon all knew what the big sign on the side of the tank represented, and the guys who had not been to Rangoon and did not know the thunder had compared the logo on the tank with the sign on the door of the convoy, and came to the conclusion that the tank and the convoy in front of them belonged to the same family, and they seemed to have stopped the convoy just now.
The tank finally stopped, right in front of the British soldiers, but the rumbling of the road did not stop, and out of the dust raised by the tanks came a heavily armed unit with the same emblem on their steel helmets as on the tank. Jack and they were dumbfounded, the highest rank among them was only a captain, at best, he commanded a company, but the other side had more than a thousand soldiers from the dust, and there was a tendency to continue to increase, the balance of forces between the two sides on the road had changed, and the situation was extremely unfavorable to their side.
"Fence up, give me all the guns" Yu Dazhi, who came in a hurry, didn't even give a chance to explain to the British troops on the opposite side, and directly ordered the vanguard of the Jewish Legion to surround these British troops. The black muzzle of Garland's gun and the thick black barrel of the tank made the British soldiers lose their arrogance, and after a few guys who wanted to maintain the demeanor of a British gentleman were directly knocked out by the butts, the other British soldiers were driven together like quails by the Jewish soldiers.
In line with the usual style of mercenary troops, Yu Dazhi, who had a wicked smile, ordered his Jewish soldiers to strip the British soldiers who had already surrendered their guns. The truck driven by the reinforcements they called was requisitioned by Yu Dazhi on the spot, and the military uniforms, equipment and weapons that the British soldiers took off just now were directly loaded and taken away, as for whether these naked guys who had no food or drink could return to their barracks smoothly, it was not Yu Dazhi's business.
The trip down is much simpler, two tiger tanks one in front of the road, one in the back of the Jewish Legion as a rearguard, with the penultimate Jewish Legion was caught up by Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi, who had a large increase in strength, was no longer afraid of the British army's interception on the Yunnan-Burma Highway, as long as the British army still wanted to return to the homeland to dedicate themselves to the country, they would not dare to fight with Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi's 40,000 Jewish soldiers with loaded guns were not vegetarians, if the British army still wanted to intercept Zhao Zhi, they needed to weigh their own weight first.
