** troops, any one without a formal number, such as the temporary and the new division, are temporary units with insufficient training, and their combat effectiveness is naturally a mess.

But there are also special ones here, such as General Liao Yaoxiang's new 22nd Division and General Sun Liren's new 38th Division.

Although the new 22nd Division is also a new division in terms of its number, it is actually a twin of the 200th Division. To be more specific, it is a division formed after the 200th Division was drawn out from the 200th Division and then added to the training of the recruits. In addition, it is also affiliated with the Fifth Army, so it is not much different from the 200th Division in terms of equipment and quality.

Needless to say, the new 38th Division, anyone with a little military knowledge knows that the predecessor of this unit was the Tax Police Corps formed by Song Ziwen.

The so-called tax police group means tax police.

But this tax policeman is not like our modern tax policeman.

The background of its establishment is that China was nominally unified at this time, but in fact, there are still many warlords with their own private armed private troops to separatist the party. If the central government wants to receive taxes from these warlords, it must suppress the troops and equipment in the hands of these warlords.

So the tax police team was formed.

And this so-called tax police is actually not a policeman, it is an army.

Moreover, it is not only an army, but also an army with a high level of education, excellent equipment, strict training and extremely strong combat effectiveness.

After several twists and turns, this army became the new 38th Division, which is the new 38th Division that fought the battle of Ren'anqiang in history.

So Zhang Chi had to think about it... Although the historical knowledge that Zhang Chi knew could completely steal General Sun Liren's tactics, the same tactics were useful in the hands of the New 38th Army, but not necessarily in the hands of the Engineer Regiment.

"The leader of the third platoon!" Seeing that Zhang Chi did not speak, Wang Mazi said with some dissatisfaction: "Why are you stunned? Tell me what you think!"

Wang Mazi is already a little used to listening to Zhang Chi's suggestions, but this is not surprising, because since he started playing, Zhang Chi has always put forward constructive suggestions, and practice has proved that Zhang Chi's suggestions are correct one by one.

"I..." Zhang Chi felt embarrassed at this time, because only he knew that what he had suggested before was all dependent on his historical knowledge.

Originally, he was confident in the Battle of Ren'an-Kang, but after the battle at Binhe Ferry, he realized that he had made a mistake... he confused the Engineer Regiment with the New 38th Division.

What should I do now?!

Just fight, that's very likely not to beat.

Don’t fight, it’s not a solution if this continues!

At this time, Zhang Chi was a little annoyed. Why did he arrange for their engineering regiment to rescue Ren'anqiang? Isn't it okay to transfer the new 38th Division like history?

But the reality is that the Engineer Regiment in Ren'anqiang is now not the New 38th Division, and Zhang Chi can only face it.

After thinking about it, Zhang Chi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Room, isn't the Burmese Independence Volunteers helping the Japanese transport shells and supplies?"

"Yeah!" Wang Mazi responded casually. He didn't understand what Zhang Chi meant.

"Look..." Zhang Chi took off his hat, grabbed a towel and tugged it on his head as a white sack, and said, "Do I look like the Burmese Independence Volunteers?"

"Oh!" Wang Mazi understood now. He walked to Zhang Chi and looked, nodded and said, "It really looks like!"

The soldiers of the Expeditionary Force themselves were in tattered uniforms, and the weapons they used were Enfield, just like the Myanmar Independent Volunteers, so they could not tell each other at first glance.

"This method may work!" Wang Mazi nodded and said, "We pretend to be helping the Japanese to get away with shells or reinforce the Burmese Independence Volunteers on the 501 Highlands, and catch him off guard!"

Zhang Chi originally meant this, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was inappropriate.

"Room!" Zhang Chi frowned and said, "First of all, if we want to get in, it will be at night. There are also many Myanmar Independence Volunteers on the 501 Highlands. I am afraid that the enemy will not be able to identify it at that time."

"Yes!" said the tank battalion commander: "The most important thing is that our army and the Myanmar Independence Volunteer Army cannot be identified, but the Japanese army can be identified. In other words, only our army and the Myanmar Independence Volunteer Army are in chaos, but the Japanese army is not in chaos. The Japanese army will fight without distinguishing the enemy and we will fight. At that time, I will be afraid..."

What the tank battalion commander said was completely possible. The Japanese army would not really care about the lives of the Myanmar Independent Volunteers. At worst, they would say that they were injured by accident. What else can the Myanmar Independent Volunteers do to them?

"On the other hand!" said the engineer battalion commander: "There are not many of us who speak Burmese, and there should be many Burmese people in the 501 Highlands. If you want to get in without being discovered... I'm afraid it's not easy!"

This is indeed a problem. A unit as big as a thousand people has entered the important defense of Japan and Myanmar. It is difficult to avoid attracting attention. Just grab a few people to ask and it will be revealed.

So the tactics entered a dead end again, and the officers fell silent again.

Zhang Chi couldn't help but feel a little angry. This battle would not be so troublesome at all. Even if the Japanese army occupied the 501 Highland and even if the Japanese army had the help of the Burmese, if the British army still had morale, then under the cover of so many heavy artillery, under the attack of Ren'anqiang and Chokbadang, the Japanese army's less than a thousand men could not defend against it!

Thinking of this, Zhang Chi was stunned and said, "Why... let's not go to the 501 Highland?"

"Where can I go if I don't go to the 501 Highland?" The engineer commander was a little confused.

"Go to Ren'anqiang!" Zhang Chi pointed to the map and said.

"Um!" Wang Mazi couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard this.

The 501 Highland was the focus of the Japanese defense, and there were many Burmese independent volunteers, so it was difficult to get in. But Ren'anqiang was different. You should know that the troops interspersed by the Japanese were insufficient at this time, so they could only block some traffic such as ferries and roads. However, the British army was extremely dependent on the highway, so they were blocked and unable to get out.

It is precisely because of this that the Japanese siege of Ren'anqiang was actually very relaxed. It is almost certain that there are no Japanese troops in the jungle and highlands in other parts except the highway, and even if there are, there are a small number.

In this case, it is obviously much easier to disguise as the Burmese Independence Volunteers into Ren'anqiang.

After entering Ren'anqiang, the Engineer Regiment can use the tanks, armored vehicles and even heavy artillery of the British Army's 7th Armored Brigade to cooperate with the British army to launch an attack on the 501 Highland!
