Zhou Youfu was taken to the car and drove away quickly, but instead of going to any confinement room, he was sent directly back to his unit. The only people who know the ins and outs of the whole thing are Zhou Youfu and Chu Tingchang, who are the red-faced actors of this farce. He Bisheng and Zhao Xiaoli each know some details, such as: Catching Lao Zhou is to make a show.

Zheng Dongguo was very bored at the gate of the Guandi Temple, and under the protection of Chu Tingchang, he didn't lose a bigger person.

He huffed and rode away in the car, wondering what to do along the way. When the car returned to the temporary residence, he roughly understood the whole thing. That audacious Zhou Youfu deliberately came to embarrass himself today, obviously also to put pressure on Chu Tingchang, he colluded with many low-level officers, and obviously had great energy. If he is left to the nonsense, the elite of the party-state will soon not know whose surname it is. Chu Tingchang was obviously too young to know the seriousness at all, but he didn't go along with those guys.

He walked back and forth in the mansion a few times, and finally calmed down and realized that he couldn't do this position. It's not that he can't cure Zhou Youfu, but now that things have become deadlocked, his two hands of grace and power have not worked. Neither did he win over his cronies, nor did he deter the loose military discipline. In other words, it's free. He felt that he could not continue to drag on, and that he had to send a telegram to Chongqing immediately.

419 simultaneously intercepted this cipher message from Allied command (skipping the 200th Division).

According to the cable, Zheng Dongguo resigned as commander of the 5th Army, and he noticed that the 200th Division was intricate and factional, and there were many hills. Although Chu Tingchang's outstanding military achievements can suppress everyone, the officers are proud of their achievements and do not take Chongqing in their eyes at all. There are signs of only recognizing teachers and not leaders. And in the future, I may not recognize the teacher.

If the troops are not dismantled and reorganized into a number of battalions and dispersed to the rest of the units, I am afraid that no one will be able to restrain the troops.

Subsequently, the style of the telegram changed, and he still held a certain affirmation of Chu Tingchang, saying: Although the officers are rebellious, the soldiers have a good grasp of the new equipment, and in the US military headquarters, I have also heard Stilwell's unreserved praise for the unit, and I have never heard them praise the Chinese army so much after teaching the Americans for so many years. However, it is also true that Chu Tingchang favored his subordinates too much, and there was almost no precedent for severe punishment when he checked the unit's punishment records and the trial records of military courts. A few days ago, in the case of robbing the gold of a nearby temple and greatly ruining the reputation of the Allied forces, four soldiers of Zhou Youfu's Ministry were caught by the British military police and sent to the 200th Division, and they were only fined. Only Tao Mingzhang's department, there was a soldier* case, three people were sentenced to death, but they were still lightly indulged by Chu Tingchang, and the division headquarters paid to settle the bitter master, and the criminal was sent to the Liduo Punishment Camp to participate in the road construction work, which is equivalent to acquittal.

At the end of the message, he gave two plans, either to dismantle the unit and assign it to the new First Army and the New Sixth Army, but the counteroffensive is imminent, and I am afraid that it will affect the combat strength. The second plan is to barely maintain the current situation, not to send any generals to receive this hot potato in the short term, so as not to make a fuss to the officers of the unit, or to continue to replenish the troops and insert reliable elements in the youth army. If the unit suffers a setback at the front and the commander-in-chief is responsible, the problem can be solved at the same time.

Chu Tingchang got the original text of the secret telegram an hour later, and he knew that Zheng Dongguo had already recognized it. The telegram did put forward two proposals, but the first one, the reorganization of the 200th Division*, was not feasible. Assigned troops to the new 38th Division, Jiang trusted Sun Liren so much? Not to mention, the Americans will not agree either. What Stilwell hated most was that Chongqing stretched his hand too far and delayed his counterattack.

As for the second one, it is to admit the status quo and focus on appeasement, after all, the troops still bear the number of the 200th Army of the 5th Division, and it is a descendant after all.

Now Chu Tingchang has a rough idea in his heart, and hurriedly went to the door in person to make amends to Zheng Dongguo. Once there, Zheng Dongguo had already begun to pack his things. When the two sides met, Chu Tingchang suddenly took out a handkerchief, burst into tears, and only said that he had no way to lead the troops, and he actually made such a mess, how can this be good.

Zheng Dongguo told Chu Tingchang that he had sent a telegram to Shanfeng, confessing the reality and admitting that he had no ability to lead troops here, but also reminded Chu Tingchang that leading the troops to the final military discipline must not be a woman's kindness, and the rewards and punishments are unknown. Chu Tingchang was resigned, and took out a notebook to record one, two, three, four. He thought to himself: You are gone, Lao Tzu is finally down-to-earth.

South of Chittagong. Xu Chong was marching in the jungle with a small group of people. He has chosen the best of his subordinates to conceal and take them with him. Three other communication teams have been established to carry out multi-node radio relays. In view of the mountainous nature of the jungle and the vulnerability of radio transmission, he sent these communication teams to occupy some commanding heights on the map that were of no military value, which served as communication relays. This makes up for the lack of satellite and drone relay communications in this era. Without this hand, his communication with Wingate across 30 kilometers would not be safe.

From time to time, the vanguard of the Japanese army passed through the woods, but their ranks were large, and they always alarmed the birds when they moved, and they were always exposed in advance. Xu Chong is a veteran of jungle warfare, very good at hiding and tracking, and he tracks the tracks of several Japanese troops at the same time, looking for the most important one. He needs to rise to prominence quickly so that he can assist Ting Chang Chu in controlling this force in the future. Without military merits, it was difficult to gain a foothold in this unit, so he targeted the head of Lieutenant General Maruyama Masao, the commander of the 2nd Division.

Although 419 did not take off the drone, it has been assisting in tracking the enemy station, even if it is far away, the enemy station will always leak some information, but the enemy command has always maintained radio silence. This made Xu Chong very annoying.

From morning to noon, he had already spared several waves of the enemy, with heavy troops and cavalry, infantry. With his advantage in communication, he could hit several ambushes, but he didn't attack them. Chu Tingchang used Laipi's way to fight too many immortal battles, and the victory of small fights was difficult to enter the eyes of others.

He anticipated that the chances of waiting for the rabbit were too small, and that he had to increase the reconnaissance range. He had either nothing to gain in the morning, or several times had spotted a single cavalryman marching against the brigade.

Usually the Japanese cavalry brigades marched, the scouts went out in pairs, and the signal corps always appeared alone. He can't kill too many people, as that will alert the enemy, so he has to try his luck and maybe find the location of the command column if he runs into a guy with the latest updated map.

Of course, it was not without purpose, he could judge the approximate whereabouts of these cavalry from the horseshoe prints on the ground, as well as the approximate interval between the time and the time to go, and make a judgment.

One of his soldiers, crouched in a tree, saw a flock of birds taking off in the distance, and it seemed that a cavalryman had come, or he had followed the same path as the other cavalry had taken 30 minutes earlier, and it seemed that the route was quite frequent. The soldier learned a few bird calls, and Xu Chong also climbed a tree.

The cavalry straddled the map pack and was grabbed by Xu Chong, who fell from the tree, and his neck had been broken when he rolled to the ground. Soldiers rushed out from the side, leading the neighing enemy horses.

When Xu Chong dragged the corpse of the enemy to the nearby jungle, the soldiers there calmed the horses, after all, the horses were not very intelligent, and they quieted down after a few pegs.

Here, Xu Chong checks the map carried by the enemy. It was found that there were some marching route markers on the map, but there were no textual annotations. It is clear that the enemy made adequate preparations in case the documents fell into the hands of the Allies, including not making text annotations on the map. They believed that the Japanese soldiers would choose to commit suicide after falling into the hands of the enemy, so there was no marked map, and the Allies were not easy to understand. However, Xu Chong was prepared, and he immediately changed into Japanese military clothes.

The soldiers found that the Japanese pickled horse was honest, and they didn't jump around. Xu Chong stepped onto the enemy's war horse and ran away. He only carried a radio in his saddlebag, a pistol pinned to his waist, and couldn't speak half a word of Japanese at all (even Ma Qiang had already learned a few words).

Although all Lin Xiuxuan's team members are all specialized in intelligence gathering, he is still different from Lin Xiuxuan, he is more inclined to field reconnaissance rather than blending into the enemy crowd to eavesdrop and peek, today is a little difficult, but he knows that the advantage of cavalry can quickly pass through the enemy column, so as long as you don't fall in front of the enemy, there is not much need to speak. Of course, how to quickly pass through the enemy's column and how to identify whether it is the command headquarters also needs to test considerable judgment ability.

He quickly ran into a convoy of baggage pushing carts in front of him, which was clearly not what he wanted. He didn't have to open the map, he could remember by recollection that there were five or six marching columns, and according to general calculations, the division headquarters would not be on the side, but probably in the middle. He hurried over the enemy column, and the horse's hooves splashed muddy water on the second lieutenant of the baggage soldiers who were sleeping on the cart, and the fellow got up and cursed, and watched the cavalry rush away.

"It's great to go to the headquarters to give orders, huh? That is, a private of the upper class. ”

"Second Lieutenant, this guy looks so strange on horseback. How do you beat the horse hard? ”

"At first glance, he looks like a barbarian from Hokkaido. Leave him alone. ”

Xu Chong quickly urged his horse to pass through several enemy columns, as if entering a no-man's land. The enemy, believing that he had important military information, gave way. It was not until the fourth column found that it was much larger, and it seemed that there was a field hospital with it, that he did not dare to make a mistake, and slowed down, and a cavalryman snatched it from his side, and he followed from a distance, and saw that there were guards blocking the horses and checking the papers. He knew something was wrong, and he turned his horse's head and disappeared into the jungle, and the enemy's caution revealed that this was their important target.

He was now sixty percent sure that this column was the headquarters of the Second Division, that the 31st Division was still in Chittagong, and that the main forces of the Second Division had passed, and that this was the middle position. According to the intelligence of 419, there were many people suffering from dysentery and cholera in the headquarters of the 2nd Division, which was the cause of the accompanying field hospital.

He quickly informed the relay station by radio with a request to immediately relay the following message from Colonel Wingate: "The whereabouts of the enemy's wing-level command may be discovered. ”

He didn't dare to say too much, and one had not been further verified. Second, I am afraid that the division headquarters will scare Wingate, and they only have three reinforced companies in total, with about 500 people, which is not a great striking force.
