Tao Mingzhang stopped not far from the sentry post, he felt that it was better not to check in person, so as not to get too stiff with the military department, at that time he wanted to know what was going on, and now he was a little hesitant.

So he called the chief of staff, Li Bingkun, over and told him to see what was in the car on his behalf. In his guess, it might be gold or something of value. The 5th Army, which currently controls the path from the seaside to Lashio, may indeed be greedy at the top. He always knew that Zhou Youfu was doing these things, and Chu Tingchang opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

Li Bingkun is a very knowledgeable person, he did not bring a deputy, he went to the truck alone, and deliberately drove away the soldiers on the side.

"Two brothers, I am also acting on orders. This box must be opened and taken a look at. The major chief of staff came up and lit a cigarette for Ma Qiang, who had the rank of sergeant. Senior Private Qin Xiaosu shook his hand and did not take his cigarette.

"Sir, it's okay to see, but do you know what happens if you look inside?" Qin Xiaosu said. He saw that Li Bingkun was a person who knew what was at stake, which meant that this kind of person could be bluffed.

"I know, I know, you were sent by the army commander, but there is no way, our division commander has also explained, any vehicle must be looked at in the past. I am also responsible, and I can't help myself. ”

"Where is your division commander now?"

"The division commander is now on the front line, and he can't catch up." The chief of staff casually told a lie.

"I'll leave my words here, I want to see, it's better to let your division commander come by yourself, and the rest of you will see it, I'm afraid you can't afford to be guilty."

After Qin Xiaosu finished speaking, Ma Qiang stepped on the box with one foot.

Seeing that he said this, Chief of Staff Li had to weigh it, in fact, he didn't want to come, but if he didn't come, he couldn't explain it to the division commander.

"Chief of Staff, I know that your division commander is not far away, he is going to poke a basket, why bother letting you ...... the tank"

"The division commander is indeed not here."

"Listen to me, let him come, I'll wait, wait a day."

Li Bingkun hesitated for a moment, the arrogance of this high-ranking soldier suppressed him, he knew that those who could complete this kind of task were all celebrities around the army commander, and he couldn't afford to offend himself, so it was better to offend the division commander, Tao Mingzhang was a more tolerant person.

Tao Mingzhang was so far away that his chief of staff jumped out of the truck, knowing that he was cowardly, it seemed that he still had to go by himself. He took a flashlight from the jeep, strode over, and when he saw the chief of staff avoiding his eyes, he snorted and jumped into the truck, followed by four guards.

When he got into the car, he turned on the flashlight and found a big man sitting on two crates, but he looked a little familiar.

"You're not Captain Lin's men?" He was surprised that when he retreated from Yangon last year, he had a relationship with Ma Qiang when he was fighting south of Ma Kui.

"Master Tao, it's a good luck."

"Captain Lin, he'......"

"He ......"

Ma Qiang was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

"Captain Lin is near Lashio, stepping on * martyrdom." Qin Xiaosu hurriedly added.

"Hey, that's a shame. Pillars of the country. ”

Tao Mingzhang looked this high-ranking soldier up and down, and then looked at the box under Ma Qiang's buttocks, he didn't expect that there were so few things.

"Is it *?" He couldn't help but think about the worst.

"Master Tao, do you really want to see it?" Qin Xiaosu said.

"I'm here in person, is there any reason to go back like this without looking at it?"

"This is military materiel, and it's definitely different from what you think." Qin Xiaosu replied calmly.

This high-ranking soldier talked eloquently and dealt with it freely, which made Tao Mingzhang a little jealous, but he had no way to retreat now.

"Since it's military supplies, there's nothing you can't see."

"Okay, you see, but the rest of you please get out of the car."

Tao Mingzhang hesitated for a moment and let the soldiers behind him go down. Ma Qiang got up at this time.

Qin Xiaosu nodded to Ma Qiang, and Ma Qiang stepped out of the way and let Tao Mingzhang walk to the box. These are two standard metal boxes for U.S. military equipment, usually used to hold radio stations or artillery observation equipment, but Tao Mingzhang noticed the navy logo on them, and according to him, there were no U.S. Navy personnel in Burma. He couldn't help but worry, maybe it was Tao Mingzhang's smuggling in collusion with the Americans in the allied forces?

"Could it be that they smuggle in warships or submarines?"

His hand reached out and flinched a little, but in the end he bravely opened the crate.

Inside the box were two large-caliber weapons that had been prevented horizontally, similar weapons he had seen, a small number of 12.7mm anti-tank guns in Soviet aid, but he had never seen a huge scope. Then he saw the wetsuit next to it.

"A weapon?" Tao Mingzhang was taken aback.

"This is a weapon that Commander Chu got from an American ally to carry out secret missions, so it is not to be seen by others."

"This ......" Tao Mingzhang was stunned, he had never seen such a large optical device installed on the weapon, he was proficient in artillery, he only thought that the optical equipment of the artillery was complex enough, and he didn't expect it to be smaller than this one.

"Do you want to see another box?"

"Look!" He let it go.

Ma Qiang moved the upper box and opened the lower box, which contained the ground terminal equipment to communicate with the large drone and the bazooka that launched the cloudburst bomb. Especially the ground station, which made Tao Mingzhang even more dumbfounded. He reached out and lifted the lid of his laptop, and the screen lit up as a contour map. In a nearby window, a synchronized video of a drone observing the ground is playing, and the picture is aimed at a bridge, moving slowly, and some faint clouds and mist can be seen drifting underneath. He spent a lot of time, studying aerial photographs of the battlefield and the United States, so he immediately recognized that this was the Bridge over the River Kwai.

Qin Xiaosu pressed the screen.

"Commander, you've seen it all, can we go?"

"This is the equipment provided by the Americans?" He asked, his voice trembling.

"It's inconvenient for me to answer, you can go and ask Chu Junzuo. But remember, leaving this car, none of these things, you have never seen. This was related to the overall plan of the military seat to sweep the Japanese army in Thailand. ”

"Oh, yes, yes."

Tao Mingzhang left in despair, and almost fell when he jumped off the truck, but fortunately the soldiers helped him. In the distance, Chief of Staff Li Bingkun hurriedly threw away his cigarette butt and went over to help, and the chief of staff thought to himself, why should the division commander bother, he has to look at the things in here, and now he is frightened, right? The chief of staff is well versed in officialdom and, of course, knows that there are things that can be seen and some things that must not be seen.

"Master, there's nothing in here, is it?"

"No, no, just some weapons, let it go...... Tell the front not to check again. ”

Tao Mingzhang gave orders incoherently.

The chief of staff thought to himself, why bother, I have to look, now that you are going to be dismissed, you may have to implicate me. But he thought about it again, he didn't look at what was inside, it was too wise.

On the commanding heights of 2.5 kilometers east of the bridge, Lin Xiuxuan was lying alone in the col to observe the bridge, and the Japanese position was suddenly brightly lit, and it was estimated that there was a convoy to pass, which made it cheaper for Lin Xiuxuan to observe.

He estimated that one of the detonators was behind such fortifications, and if it was suppressed from the west bank, even if there was heavy artillery, it would not be possible to destroy all these fortifications in the first one, so that the enemy would have the opportunity to detonate the bridge. However, if there are programmable munitions, there is a chance to kill and injure Japanese troops behind key bunkers.

Another 150 meters away in another command center, there is likely a second detonator hidden, and a way must be found to cut the wires, or infiltrate the command headquarters.

He doesn't have a drone terminal system, so he can't see too many details with the naked eye and binoculars, and many parts are actually guessed by him.

On the west bank of the bridge, a convoy of trucks came, which was a car unit sent by the temple to pick up the wounded of the 4th Division, about a hundred vehicles. At this time, the headquarters of the Southern Army could only send so many trucks. In the year since the start of the war in the Pacific, the Southern Army has never been able to accumulate materials and troops, and all the weapons produced by Japan at full capacity have been thrown on various battlefields and quickly consumed.

He felt that his plan was actually a bit risky, and if the Fourth Division was released without keeping the bridge, it would be a major setback for Chu Tingchang's plan.

He was very sure of Chu Tingchang's plan in his heart, and he was carefully calculated both militarily and politically.

This plan is likely to end the war a year early, essentially blocking Makino's ability to use modern technology to strengthen Japan's military. Now it seems that the annihilation of one of the Burmese fronts will be imminent, and this may well be the beginning of the collapse of the Japanese army. And after capturing Vietnam, the Japanese troops on the entire Southeast Asian islands were actually isolated from another battlefield, and they could even ignore them, which was much more clever than the frog jumping tactic.

The drone hovered in the air, conducting reconnaissance and mapping of the area near the enemy's bridge, and 419 Shangcheng Dayang had already begun to prepare for the attack according to the ideas provided by Lin Xiuxuan. The accuracy of Chu Tingchang's artillery was not enough to launch a sudden and devastating attack to kill and injure most of the Japanese troops on the position, so he had to rely on the * on the submarine. Since leaving Shanghai, the submarine has not been used*. He can fire 4 guns in a row, and these * will be arranged in a simple way so that * will arrive at about the same time as the march, and with the precision weapons of the ground team, such a combined attack may roughly destroy the enemy's defenses by eighty. Of course, everything is still theoretical, the most crucial step is to confuse the enemy command before the attack, and there are two preliminary plans at present, either find and kill the enemy commander in advance, or someone has to infiltrate the vicinity of the enemy's headquarters, connect a line on his telephone line, and then issue a series of fake orders to their commander.

Lieutenant General Matsujiro Kimura, the rearguard of the 4th Division, retreated towards the bridge. It seems that the enemy 201st Division behind him was thrown off. He always felt that there was something strange about this escape, and when he passed through the enemy's position, he also sighed that the position was so well constructed that it should be his burial place, but the enemy fled without a fight.

He didn't think it was strange that it had happened two years earlier, but it happened in March 1943, at a time when the Burmese Front was in turmoil, and it was really difficult for him to understand. But you can't figure out what the enemy's purpose is if you want to break your head?
