The Japanese army attacked Pearl Harbor and then directly invaded Thailand. In less than a week around the world, the vanguard of the Japanese army has entered Burma.

But Dai Anlan knew that when Luo Zhuoying said that the Japanese army entered Burma, he did not mean that the Japanese army had just entered, but that he was referring to the impact of the Japanese army entering Burma, which had already made the British anxious.

The slogan of the Japanese southward movement was Greater East Asia, uniting Asians and resisting European aggression.

No matter what they do, the slogan is still catchy.

Britain, France, the Netherlands and other colonies all used the plundering methods of red fruit, and the gentlemanly demeanor of later generations will never be lightly brushed on the aborigines. Centuries-old contradictions have long accumulated in the hearts of the indigenous people, and the timing of a volcanic eruption is just one day away. And the Japanese directly broke this gap with the army.

The fact that French Indochina and other places fell into the hands of the Japanese so easily also has something to do with it. A large number of natives stirred up the violence in their hearts, broke the old order by violently shuffling the cards, and broke out directly in hundreds of years of silence. This force frightened the colonists.

When the Japanese army entered Thailand, the Thai royal family went directly to Japan in order to keep the throne, and the British could still understand. After all, Thailand has always been independent, and a small country that has maintained neutrality can only choose to hug the thick legs of the Japanese.

When the Japanese army entered Burma, there was a large-scale opposition to the British in various parts of Burma, taking advantage of the Japanese to seek independence. The speed of the Japanese army's march was 100 miles a day, and the major Burmese towns were linked.

This made the British even more afraid to rely on the local indigenous army, so they turned to Chongqing for help.

Under the continuous urging of the British, the gathering of the Central Army this time was unprecedentedly high-speed, and a lot was missing accordingly.

Although the British promised to help solve the problem of weapons and equipment, and directly mobilized American aid weapons from India, it was too late for the professional training of personnel.

"Hopefully, when we get to the front, we'll have time to get used to the local environment!" Dai Anlan sighed.

Because he repeatedly refused the recruitment of the vanguard army, there were many fewer generals in the central army, and he was a descendant of Huangpu, so he won the respect of Lao Jiang. Although he is only leading the 200th Division now, the 200th Division is a rare mechanized division of the Central Army, and it is the elite of the elite, both in scale and strength, far beyond the previous life, before being selected as the first team to enter Burma.

However, thinking of the mechanized troops of the vanguard army he had seen, Dai Anlan still felt a burst of irritability in his heart for no reason, and couldn't help but think: "In such a war, will the vanguard army fail?" ”

……

"Our Commander Wu has been busy for a long time, but halfway through, he let that Sun Li come in." Yang Sanpao muttered.

"Three cannons!" Feng Kaijia next to him glared at him and said, "What did the teachings in the veteran camp say?" We are the National Defense Force, not someone's private soldiers, our army belongs to China, not the township soldiers of a region. Even Marshal Meng said that our national defense force is not just for one person, so there is nothing unusual about changing generals. Besides, General Sun is also a famous general who killed devils, not to mix rice. ”

As a major battalion commander, he knows a lot about Sun Liren and knows Sun Liren's successive exploits, but he is also a little worried in his heart.

You must know that their troops have been doing adaptation training in the jungles of Guangxi, Yunnan, and other places for more than a year, and some of their elites have even gone directly to Burma, Borneo, and other places to conduct actual combat exercises, and they dare not say that they are completely familiar with the tropical jungle. And I heard that Sun Liren has been confronting the Japanese on the northeast side of the Liao River.

They may have adapted to the cold climate, but with the very different environment of the tropical jungle, there are so many things to think about as a commander. Can he adapt?

……

"We have been training in the tropics for more than half a year, how come it is that the more we are about to fight, the more we feel bottomless, as if there are still many things that we have not prepared?" As the commander of the first division, Liu Fangwu reclined on the simple seat of the transport plane regardless of his image, smacking his mouth and smacking his mouth to Sun Lidao, who closed his eyes next to him.

More than half a year ago, when the troops in the north were still nervously preparing to start a war against Soviet Russia, Liu Fangwu, who did not have his turn to fight against the Soviet Union, was still a little depressed, but an order made him excited.

The initial order did not mention fighting the Japanese, but the clear order to march south meant that the territory was also to be opened.

Except for a very few people, the outside world had no idea that the leader of the army that was going south was still sitting in the icy north. Even the Japanese who infiltrated everywhere only heard that there was a unit from Sichuan, Guangxi, and Yunnan that was training in the southern mountains, and their leader was Wu Xinhua.

But they didn't know that Sun Liren and the others had gone through countless secret airlifts, flying directly from the Linhai Snow Fields in the north to the southernmost tropical jungle in China to carry out secret actual combat simulation training. Not to mention that in the past six months, the General Staff of the Vanguard Army has placed a group to study tropical jungle warfare by Nanguo and Sun Liren, and has comprehensively analyzed various tactics and unexpected situations.

Of course, the enemies they simulated fighting against were not only the Japanese.

From the experience of Meng Xiang's later generations and the reference to the instinctive tactics of the clones fighting in the tropics, coupled with the experience of the staff in combining the tropical combat experience of foreign and local natives, the detailed study of the combat strategy is stitch by stitch, after absorbing and digesting it for half a year, Sun Liren's understanding of tropical warfare can already be regarded as one of the best in the world.

At this time, he ignored Liu Fangwu's exaggerated expression, his eyes were still closed, and his face was expressionless, but there were already waves in his heart.

He had already seen the whole Plan C, and the surprise and excitement had not subsided until now. He is proud to have been a part of the project and is deeply grateful for the fact that he was chosen as the main implementer of the project. He didn't know that in another time and space, he also relied on the war in the south to push his famous style to the top.

It's not just that Meng Xiang wants to make up for this regret, but he has resorted to tricks that cross the sky and the sea, so that the enemy can't clear his mind, and Sun Liren, as a famous general in history, is not in vain. His level is much stronger than Wu Xinhualai.

Although Wu Xinhua, who disappeared directly with the Sichuan army in his previous life, was already an old qualification in the vanguard army and ranked among the high-level commanders of the vanguard army, his command level was not very good. His diligent and conscientious style makes him train according to the outline at a glance, but he is not very handsome in leading troops flexibly.

The mission of the new expeditionary force is no longer just to passively resist the Japanese invasion of China from the direction of Burma, but to make a more magnificent expedition to the south. This is beyond Wu Xinhua's ability, so Sun Liren is in charge.

"I dare say that the Japanese are not well prepared by us, if you want to say that they are not ready!" Qi Xueqi, the chief of staff of the expeditionary force who had been designated as the vanguard army next to him, also sighed, "Everyone else knows that our vanguard army is good at fighting, but most people put the focus of good war on our sophisticated weapons, but how many people know the efforts we have made for every battle?"

How can there be so many chances in winning a battle?

Not to mention the extravagance of all kinds of training on the training ground, but the careful planning of the staff department, but every possibility was taken into account as much as possible. Even for the staff below, it has become a common practice to have at least three sets of battle plans for each operation. In the event of a sudden change, a back-up plan is immediately activated. Even if it seems absurd that the Japanese would attack the United States, we have prepared a plan.

In this way, you can know what to expect and not panic.

Not only the General Staff, but also our logistical preparations are unmatched by other armies. I heard that this time the Japanese still followed the old rules, only half full, and began to attack. If you don't want to be hungry, you can only grab it. In this way, you can't even eat by yourself, not to mention weapons and ammunition, I'm afraid other tropical equipment and supplies are even more difficult to say. Such a force enters the tropical jungle, and once their simple logistical supply is cut off, will not all the troops be wiped out in the jungle?

When I think about it now, I think those tropical jungles are terrible, and even we feel unprepared, let alone the Japanese. It's not good, I really want to be dragged to death in the south, and my bones will not return. ”

After laughing twice, he frowned again and sighed:

"It's just a pity! Chongqing's preparations are even more hurried, and I don't know how many good Chinese men will spill their blood in a foreign land after an expedition! There are too many dangers in the jungle, and not being well prepared is simply going to die. ”

Everyone was silent together, they were all from the Central Army, and there were still many acquaintances and friends in the Central Army at this time, what kind of style over there would be unfamiliarity? From the signing of the agreement between Chongqing and the British to the gathering of the expeditionary force, what preparations can be made in such a short time?

"It's a pity, if only these brothers had joined our vanguard army! It's just that Chongqing has always refused to come together with us, and the upper side is unwilling to start the domestic war lightly, otherwise Chongqing will not be fought at all. Not to mention that there are a lot of recruits over there, it's just a big move by us, I'm afraid that the wind will fall over there, and I can't wait to join our vanguard army! Liu Fangwu said angrily.

"Don't worry, this has been prepared for a long time, and there will definitely be no one who sits idly by!" Sun Liren opened his eyes and smiled indifferently, breaking the silence for a while.

"How?" Liu Fangwu's eyes lit up and he asked urgently.

"Just start fighting!" The corners of Sun Liren's mouth curled and smiled.
