Seven hundred and eighth chapter Japanese drag knife plan
Looking at the almost wiped out Gloucester Battalion, Mountbatten was also in tears. In fact, Churchill directly commanded the Chinese expeditionary force several times in succession, and the first two times they cheated the Chinese.
At the same time, he also cheated himself. This time he teased the Chinese Expeditionary Force again. The Chinese Expeditionary Force's training paratroopers that had promised Stilwell before seemed to be gone. The complete denial would make Stilwell
What impression do you have of the credibility of the British Empire? I'm afraid it's unknown, but for Stilwell, who is narrow-minded, this time it completely offended Stilwell.
Before leaving Impal, Mountbatten had a meeting with Stilwell and Gao Fei. Mountbatten stretched out his hand to Gao Fei with a gentlemanly manner, while Gao Fei was disdainful. Mountbatten seemed to have expected the result,
He smiled happily and said insincerely when he shook hands with Stilwell: "We have worked together very happily this time, and we look forward to our next cooperation."
Stilwell said without hesitation: "Is it not enough to sell one betrayal and betrayal a second betrayal? Judas only betrayed Jesus once. Such cooperation is enough. You have made me lose the last one in front of the Chinese.
chips.”
Stilwell was right. He, the chief of staff, was planning to use US aid supplies to block the Chinese people's necks. As a result, the Chinese government did not look down on the first batch of supplies at all. He believed that the United States was actually perfunctory to China, so he privately contacted Japan.
The secret negotiations in Hong Kong have scared the US government, increased its aid to China, and reduced Stilwell's rights. If Stilwell helps the Chinese government, he is the chief of staff.
There is value in existence, but the Chinese do not trust him, the British do not deceive him, Stilwell was deceived by the British, and the Chinese do not have the luck? This logic seems to have become a reality, and the officers and soldiers of the Chinese Expeditionary Force are not fools.
, they can still see clearly who deceives themselves.
Gao Fei began to order the troops to prepare for rest and recuperation before retreat. Chennard did not drop enough supplies for the airdrop, but Gao Fei also seemed very calm and leisurely. The blood sacrifice of the mountains and rivers of the Anti-Japanese War 708
For Yamashita Fengwen, who was retreating all the way, he was very depressed. The 18th Division and the 4th Division were actually his plan to drag his sword, which was exactly what Gao Fei was most worried about. The main force of the Japanese army was attacking Impal
It was not damaged during the battle, and most of the ammunition funds could be supplemented through the Bay of Bengal. Except for the 6th Division and the 56th Division lost their combat effectiveness, the other divisions and Abe Questui Mountain Army were supplemented by
It is completely possible to fight again, especially when retreating, which is the Japanese's specialty. Yamashita's Tomofumi's move was wonderful, but did not attract the main Chinese expeditionary force, but instead attracted a bunch of wine bags.
goods.
Yamashita Fengwen deviated from the prescribed marching routes to the north and south during the movement, and kept a distance of thirty roads between the two divisions. In this way, the British who pursued them would definitely find this so-called
The battle breakthrough was already prepared for the British, and the main force encircled the front and left and right wings. The chariot troops cooperated with Abe's mountain army to advance to the rear of the British army, completely cutting off the British
The army's supply line completely wiped out the British pursuing troops.
The cunning Chinese, this is the impression the Chinese Expeditionary Force gave Yamashita Fengwen the moment. Is it because of his own combat plan? The Chinese Expeditionary Force, which was supposed to pursue the victory, did not move? There were signs of retreating? Could it be that it was China and Britain.
Is there any conflict between them? If the Germans and Japanese in the Far East are just like the Japanese, their attacks will never be effectively coordinated.
For the Chinese Expeditionary Force Gao Fei's troops stayed at the foot of the Impal 2c Mountain, Feng Wen had to vent his anger on the British. In order to beat the dogs in the water, the British dispatched the British and Indian 7th Division, the 10th Division, and the 10th Division.
The Fifth Division, the 17th Division, the 21st Division, the 7th Armored Brigade, the 29th Armored Brigade, the 21st Royal Rebellion, and the 23rd Rebel, these troops actually belong to two
Army and three independent combat groups command.
Skunas is the battlefield commander of Impal. The specific significance of his position in the British Army is equivalent to resigning on the spot after the Battle of Impal. Therefore, only the British and Indian Infantry can command only
The division and the 7th Armored Brigade, the British Army's command organization is indeed incredible. Just like the Japanese staff officer actually has the power to command decisions, otherwise the military chief officer was not in power, a major staff officer could command one.
Division combat is of a strange level in the military systems of countries around the world.
The British troops that were dispatched to pursue the Japanese army this time were actually divided into three major general commanders, Skunas, Scottivs, and Vettelcart. The Seventh Armored Brigade and the 29th Armored Brigade, which should be used in a centralized manner, were respectively affiliated with each other.
Yuskunas, Scott Vince, and Vettelcarter directly commanded the 21st Rebellion, the 23rd Rebellion, the Royal Air Force of the British Empire, and the Royal Navy all sound majestic.
The reason for not having the Royal Army is very very impressive
The biggest reason is that the army's performance during the war in the Great Britain was very mediocre, and it was often very unsatisfactory. In addition, the many armies of the Commonwealth and the colonial army were all under the jurisdiction of the British Army.
It cannot be called the Royal Army. Only a few England with outstanding achievements and long history can add the word Royal before the name of the army, which means that the army is entirely composed of the British.
The most terrible thing is that the strength of the three combat clusters of Skunas, Scott Vince and Vettelcarter is amazingly different. Vettelcarter only commands the strength of two brigades, while Skunas only commands one infantry division and one
Armored Brigade, Scott Vince commanded the British-Indian 7th Division, the 10th Division, the 15th Division, the 21st Division and the 29th Panzer Brigade. The limited troops were completely separated and fought.
The fist that goes out becomes a rootless finger, so that even if it hits the enemy, it may poke your finger.
Moreover, the Japanese retreat was quite organized and not a so-called escape. The alternating cover between the Fourth Division and the Eighteenth Division is the best proof of luring the enemy into depth.
Gao Fei was full of concern about the British attack, because the commander of any combat force could not ignore his flank safety. Although Mutaguchi Ryo was a reckless man who lacked his brain, he did not lack tactical qualities.
