At the beginning of 1945, the Japanese were in decline, both in terms of national strength and armaments. In fact, the same was true for the entire Axis powers. However, war is war, and its essence will not be changed because of anything. The *** elements are doing their final work.

of madness.

The fighting in southern Myanmar is still raging. After the recent Yan'anqiang battle, the 3rd Division of the 88th Army suspended its southward attack. On the one hand, the troops need supplies and personnel to rest and recuperate. On the other hand, they are also waiting for better fighters.

.

Entering the southern part of Mandalay Province, the terrain became more mountainous and less roads. Armored troops and heavy artillery had difficulty moving here, and it was difficult to keep up with the rapid advance of large troops.

Long Wenwen had no choice but to split the team into two, leaving a group of people to coordinate with the heavy artillery brigade and armored brigade to move while waiting for supplies from the rear. On the other side, Fang Jingyao led the two main regiments to seize the opportunity and open up the advance for the large army.

path of.

The Japanese seemed to have learned wisely. They changed their tactics and no longer held a meaningless defense of a certain place. Instead, they spread out and hid in the primitive jungle that blocked the sky and used guerrilla methods to harass the enemy.

The little Japanese laid out many minefields in the forest, especially on the forest trails. If you are not careful, you will be blown up into the sky. Many Japanese ambushed on both sides in the form of small teams, relying on one or two light machine guns as the fulcrum of firepower.

, as long as an enemy passes by, it will immediately deal maximum damage.

Some of the little devils started to behave like apes again. They tied themselves with ropes to trees with a certain death mentality, or hid in dense bushes. They stayed there for several days, waiting for the enemy.

When passing by, he used his own life to drag down a few unlucky people who were relying on him.

The three main regiments of the Third Division are all heavy troops. For a long time in the past, they relied on equipment, firepower superiority and air support to fight the Japanese army. However, at this time, it is difficult for the artillery at the regimental and battalion level to play a role in the jungle.

The team can only be broken into parts and slowly advance in a gradually encroaching manner.

At the same time, members of the Merrill Commando also came here to fight together. This time they did not use airborne tactics, but brought a group of military dogs specifically targeted at Japanese jungle warfare.

In front of the military dogs with a keen sense of smell, the Japanese soldiers hiding in the dark could no longer hide. Once they were found, they would inevitably receive a heavy firepower.

In the past two months, the vanguard troops fought dozens of battles with the Japanese army. At the same time, both sides also lost a lot of soldiers. Generally speaking, the Allies had the advantage. The Japanese army, which lacked food, clothing and support, could only fall into the disadvantage.

.

With the support of the Mai detachment, the soldiers felt much more relaxed in the subsequent jungle battle, and finally drove the little Japs from the forest to Pyinmana and Naypyitaw.

The Japanese army obviously does not have much advantage in terms of military strength. The Southern Army headquarters has no more troops to send for support. All the Japanese can do now is to try every means to delay the enemy so that the defenders in Bago Province and Yangon can

The army is fully prepared for defense.

Fang Jingyao, who was commanding the frontline troops, had already seen hope, and was about to concentrate his forces again to wipe out the Japanese troops in Naypyitaw. When he suddenly received the bad news, his father was actually killed by the Japanese in Singapore.

"Lao Fang, why don't you go back to the Heihe base to rest first, and I will take command here. This is what Jun Zuo means. Don't think too much about that. Originally..."

When Meng Fanglia brought this information to the frontline headquarters, bombers from the US Army and the Nankan Air Service had already dropped bombs on the little devil's head, and the troops were about to launch an artillery bombardment on Binmana. The first and second regiments would be bombarding

After the end, a joint attack was launched on the enemy positions in Naypyitaw and Pyinmana.

Fang Jingyao was just stunned. A trace of surprise and disbelief appeared on his originally calm face, but this expression was quickly hidden by him.

"I'm sorry, you idiot. If you don't come here early, you won't come late. You have to do something pornographic at this time!" The straight-tempered Yao Ma complained. He didn't think the other party should come over now to talk about such things.

"Hey...you Bashan monkey, you think the young master is happy, but if it weren't for...oh, it's rare for me to talk to you!"

Meng Fan was in a dilemma. If Liao Mingyu hadn't insisted on him doing this, he wouldn't have been happy to be the mourning bird here.

The roaring sound of artillery fire kept ringing in the ears, and no one could think more about it at this moment of war. At this time, Fang Jingyao could not see any anger or sadness on his face. He did not ask a word, but turned around silently and lowered his head.

Continue to focus on the sandbox diagram on the desktop.

"Chief of Staff, are you okay?"

"Sir, please take care of your health. I have my condolences and accept the change..."

…

The officers at all levels beside him immediately came forward to comfort him. Usually, Fang Jingyao's clear-cut approach to rewards and punishments and his amiable and elegant character were deeply respected by all the officers, and his prestige in their hearts was also quite high. Everyone did not want him to get angry because of this incident.

.

After all, the pain of losing a father is indescribable, and Meng Fan, who is still living in the family, can relate to it. It is understandable that the other party cannot accept it for a while.

"Don't make any noise...there's still a war going on!"

Fang Jingyao suddenly slapped his hand on the table and looked at everyone expressionlessly:

"We'll wait until this battle is over. Now, each of you should perform your duties and do your job well. Don't discuss anything that has nothing to do with the battlefield!"

His voice was not loud but surprisingly calm, and there was an irresistible force in his tone. No one who was swept by that firm gaze dared to look at him for even a moment.

"Chief of Staff, don't be upset! I assure you that I will personally lead the team later, and the soldiers of the third regiment will definitely be the first to break into the Japs' position!"

Milong, who was fearless and fearless, raised his voice and patted his chest to assure himself that in his consciousness, blood debts must be repaid with blood, and only by chopping off the heads of a few more devils can he pay homage to the heroic spirits of his relatives in heaven.

"No nonsense! All troops must attack according to the order of battle. This battle has nothing to do with individuals. I don't want you to let your soldiers lose their lives in vain because of your emotions. If anyone dares to act on impulse, don't blame military law for being ruthless! Do you hear me clearly?" Fang Jingyao?

He frowned coldly and ordered without any doubt.

"yes…!"

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked by his aura, especially Mi Long, who was glared at severely. Although Chief of Staff Fang was usually gentle and easy to talk to, at critical moments he was equally domineering and uncompromising.

"Old Fang..."

Meng was annoyed and wanted to say a few words, but was interrupted by Fang Jingyao: "No need to say any more, an attack is about to start here. Commander Li, take Chief Meng to a safe area in the rear."

"Yes!" Yaoma came up and tugged on Meng Fan's arm, signaling him to leave quickly with her eyes.

Seeing Fang Jingyao's persistence, Meng Fan could only sigh secretly and stop trying to dissuade him. On the other hand, he also admired the other party for being able to put aside personal issues at this time and command the overall situation with determination and calmness. It was really not easy.
