Tang Cheng, who had already assembled, had been waiting for the commando team's order to attack, but the night had already fallen, and the order to attack that they had gathered and waited for had not yet arrived. "Sir, could something have gone wrong? Or maybe we don't have to do it? Tan Fei, who was already waiting and was a little anxious, gently moved to Tang Cheng's side and asked in a low voice, "I just went out for a walk, and several veterans on this defense line said that they killed and injured a lot of brothers last night, I guess if they want to do it themselves, they don't need us at all." ”

Tang Cheng, who had not made a sound, crooked his mouth, in fact, he already somewhat agreed with Tan Fei's speculation, seeing that it would be more than 2 o'clock in the morning, even in August, the dawn in Myanmar was very early, and if it was dawn, the originally planned night attack would be impossible to talk about. "Wait, if you really don't need us, then it will save trouble." Tang Cheng's words were full of anger, and anyone who waited for hours in this muddy position would have a little anger.

Moyo waited until three o'clock in the morning, and the artillery deployed in the rear began to threaten, almost without warning, and more than a dozen large-caliber howitzers began to bombard the Japanese positions. Looking at the firelight rising from time to time in front of the position, Tang Cheng began to pace back and forth with his hands behind his back and stepping on the mud everywhere, and the outbreak of artillery made Tang Cheng realize that the originally scheduled night attack had come to naught. Now that the artillery has struck, the 38th Division will no longer agree to take advantage of the night assault, otherwise the artillery fire will fall on the heads of its own people.

Sure enough, before the shelling stopped, a herald from the 38th Division handed over the order to lift the raid to Tang Cheng. "Third brother, beckoning the brothers to gather, the raid has been canceled, let's withdraw to the camp to rest." After reading the order to cancel the raid, Tang Cheng's face looked a little ugly, he didn't think there was anything wrong with canceling the mission, he just didn't want to be a pawn for the bigwigs to play at will.

The commando team withdrew safely, and Mike, who had been fidgeting and anxiously waiting, was also puzzled, "The order has been canceled, I guess we have been tricked, and the focus of the assault on the command side should not be the direction we have chosen, I don't believe you wait for dawn to read the battle report." Mike obviously found it difficult to accept Tang Cheng's dry explanation, and after arranging for Tang Cheng and their group to rest, Mike personally drove to the former enemy command bar to ask for an explanation.

The information that Mike received from the former enemy headquarters was almost the same as Tang Cheng's guess, the expeditionary force did not want to attack the Japanese defense line on a large scale, they just played a trick with the Japanese army, and while mobilizing troops on a large scale outside Myitkyina, they had secretly assembled a part of the troops. Taking advantage of the fact that the attention of the Japanese army in Myitkyina was attracted to their side in Tangcheng, the expeditionary force sent elite troops last night to finally recapture many positions that were attacked by the Japanese army.

The sky was completely bright, and according to the orders of the headquarters, some troops on the outskirts of Myitkyina began to move, and Mack's commandos were also in this transfer because they temporarily replenished Tang City. "Tell the brethren to pack up, we're going to change places." Tang Cheng didn't rush to the order that Mike brought back, but just woke up Hou San and a few of them with a flat face, and then asked Hou San and a few of them to wake up the soldiers under him one by one to assemble.

The soldiers who were woken up all consciously lined up in columns, and some sleepy-eyed guys looked around at their robes while checking their weapons and ammunition. "Now there is sound control, don't talk loudly, don't smoke." Hou San commanded at the front of the team, "We will go to a village two kilometers away, and then we will camp there, let's go now!" The soldiers muttered as they lined up to leave their current camp.

"It's been a long time since I've felt this way, hasn't I? So many people marched together in a line. Zhao Liang, who was walking a little ahead, suddenly whispered. Next to him was Tan Fei, who was next to him, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but glance at him inexplicably, but was about to speak but was glared at fiercely by Hou San, who heard the voice, and he said that he wanted to control his voice.

Tan Fei and Zhao Liang hurriedly shrunk their necks, smiled at Hou San, and gestured to say that they would never dare again. Seeing the two of them behave like this, everyone couldn't help but chuckle, and then suddenly they heard the sound of a car horn behind them, and a truck carrying soldiers passed by them, speeding past. "Damn, it splashed me in mud." Liu Shishi, who was following the back of the team, couldn't help jumping away, but he still didn't dodge the mud splashed by the car.

Lenny looked at the GIs in the car and said, "It's the guys from the 38th Division, these guys are like that." ”

"Why are they in the car when we have to walk? They didn't have a few people in their car, so why didn't they bring us aboard? At this time, Liu Shishi shouted loudly, and then he was on the road. After he shouted like this, many people were on the road.

"Di Di Di", the truck behind kept honking its horn. "Hey guys, get out of the way, let's get over!" The truck that had been blocked on its way finally stopped, poking its head out of the cab and yelling. The driver of the car shouted for a long time, but Liu Shishi, who was standing in the middle of the road, did not have anyone to pay attention to him, and the driver had no choice but to look at Lanny, who was standing next to Liu Shishi.

Lenny shook his head with a smile and shouted, "Man, take us and the road will be clear." Then the soldiers on the road also started to shout.

The driver who poked his head out of the cab looked at Liu Shishi and his gang who were blocking the road, and it was obvious that these guys blocking the road refused to stop until they reached their goal, so they had to shout loudly, "Okay, damn it, you guys come up!" Lenny and Liu Shishi and the others all climbed into the truck, while Tang Cheng and Mike and the rest of the people continued on foot.

The destination is not very far, only 2 kilometers away from Mike's original camp, if it weren't for the slippery road conditions, Tangcheng they might only need an hour to reach the destination, but now, when they arrived at the destination on foot, Liu Shishi in the car had already had breakfast in the logistics troops of the 38th Division. was forced to stop for no reason, and the driver of the 38th Division had already reported what had just happened on the road, but when he learned that it was the commando directly under the headquarters who stopped the car, the logistics officer of the 38th Division, who was supposed to come to Mike for an explanation, did not show up for a long time.

Although Mike's commando team has been disabled, after all, they still carry the name of the direct command of the headquarters, but the complaints of a few drivers, and the people of the 38th Division do not want to really offend Mike. When he arrived at the destination and settled down, Tang Cheng realized that the original 2 kilometers were the actual distance, and if it was about the straight-line distance with the Japanese position, it was only less than 500 meters away.

Such a move forward made Hou San and them very dissatisfied, they had already gathered so many troops on the periphery of Myitkyina, according to Hou San's ideas, they simply fought against Myitkyina, where could they still be so careful step by step, according to this speed to take Myitkyina, I don't know how long to grind. "Take care of your mouths, don't talk nonsense about anything good or bad, here is not only us in the army, let others listen, it is indispensable to beat down another board." Tang Cheng warned Hou San and them with a cold face, which made Hou San and them, who were discussing in private, stop.

"Don't talk about them, in fact, I also have this question in my heart, our troops have obviously taken the initiative, why are we so careful to rub against the Japanese army? According to the information we have obtained, there are not many civilians in Myitkyina, and the Japanese army has built Myitkyina into a large barracks, even if there are Burmese people, they are all Burmese National Salvation Army who help the Japanese army, and they are all our enemies. Like Hou San and them, Mike also complained about the procrastination of the headquarters, but his complaints could only be confided in Tang Cheng in private.

"Don't worry, even people like you who can't fight can see it, I don't believe there are no people in the command who understand. General Sun Liren is not an idle eater, if it were me, such a good situation would not be wasted, I guess there must be some new plan on the command side, otherwise it would not be so unreliable. "I met Sun Liren once in Xinpingyang, and Tang Cheng admired the combat effectiveness of the New First Army very much, especially the 38th Division in Tang Cheng's impression was simply a model of invincibility.

As Tang Cheng had speculated, the top brass of the expeditionary force was divided over how to take Myitkyina, and Stilwell wanted to use Myitkyina as a decoy to lure the Burmese Japanese to come to the rescue. His idea was to use Myitkyina and the Burmese Japanese army to encircle and send reinforcements, but Sun Liren, who actually commanded the battle, never agreed to this plan, and the 38th Division took the Hukang Valley and severely damaged the Japanese 18th Division.

Stilwell and Sun Liren had their own opinions, neither of them could convince anyone, and in the end it was the British army who made peace, anyway, now that the expeditionary force has no shortage of supplies and supplies, they simply besieged Myitkyina for a few days to see if the Burmese Japanese army would send reinforcements. It is precisely because of this that a strange confrontation has formed between the Japanese army in Myitkyina and the expeditionary force, today you sneak attack me, tomorrow I will sneak attack you again, Tangcheng will feel that they are now fighting with the Japanese army in Myitkyina.
