"Sir, this is the Japanese code book that Tang Lei sent from the Toungoo front line. Our people have already read it and are sure it is authentic." Luo Ying, who looked surprised, ignored Zhao Zhizheng and his operational staff.
During the sand table deduction, I pushed open the door of the war room and shouted. The Japanese code book, this is a good thing, especially now that Lei Lei is fighting with the Japanese army, this Japanese code book just captured appears
Especially important.
"Who else knows about this thing besides you?" Zhao Zhi's first reaction after receiving the code book was that he must control the scope of knowledge about this matter. The Japanese's special high school courses are as pervasive as the military commander's intelligence agents, although
The people around Zhao Zhi were all well-informed people or foreign mercenaries with European faces, but he could not guarantee that there would be no Japanese agents pretending to be Chinese mercenaries to sneak into Thunder to spy on intelligence, so Thunder obtained the Japanese Army
Regarding the codebook, messages must be blocked.
"Tang Lei sent someone to deliver it to me, and Madam asked Krum from the telecommunications room to confirm the authenticity of the code book. Only Madam, Klum and I know about it."
Luo Ying glanced at the dozen combat staff officers in the war room with the corner of his eyes, and then lowered his voice and said, "I'm afraid you are included in the room now. Sir, did I do something wrong?"
"Don't be so irritable in the future. Leave this matter alone. I will handle it." The combat advisers around Zhao Zhi were all specially selected from mercenaries and Jews. Zhao Zhi was not worried at all about these people's influence on Lei Ting.
And one's own loyalty and interests are the best guarantees. Not to mention mercenaries, those Jewish staff officers turned out to be people who had led troops in Europe. Only Thunder can give them a chance to realize their dreams again, so Zhao Zhi did not
Worried that they will do something detrimental to the Thunder's interests.
Obtaining the code book gave Zhao Zhi the idea to adjust his tactics. Having the code book was equivalent to a guarantee for the Thunder to defeat the Japanese army. Naturally, Zhao Zhi's combat staff also had the same idea. "Tungyu Defense Line Attack
The retreating Japanese army is their 15th Division. According to the intelligence we obtained, the number of Japanese troops attacking this time should be around 400,000. However, among all our positions, only Toungoo has exchanged fire with the Japanese army. The Japanese army now
The blockade in southern Myanmar is very severe, and the intelligence agents we arranged in Yangon cannot continue to pass on the relevant information." The staff officer under Zhao Zhi who was responsible for gathering intelligence was somewhat helpless at the strangeness of the Japanese army.
"Don't just rely on our intelligence agents. The Japanese army has blocked southern Myanmar so hard. If our intelligence agents are allowed to transmit information hastily, it will definitely bring danger." Zhao Zhi understood that the intelligence staff wanted to lurk in Yangtze.
Guang's intelligence agents tried to find a way to transfer the information, but Zhao Zhi did not agree with his idea. The intelligence agents lurking in southern Myanmar all stayed voluntarily. They were all people who had shed blood for Thunder. Zhao Zhi
Zhi couldn't let them take risks to deliver information. Besides, he already had the Japanese army's code book in his hand, so the intelligence related to the Japanese army would naturally continue to flow.
"Can we let Ren'anqiang's troops move south to Piaiyai, just in time to connect with the Toungoo defense line? Even if the Japanese army launches a massive attack, we will have more room for maneuver." The blue military flag indicating the deployment of Thunder's troops was removed from the
Ren'an Qiang moved to Bemei, and Lei Lei deployed a Jewish army of 20,000 soldiers in Ren'an Qiang. If the Japanese army was not interested in Ren'an Qiang, then all 20,000 Jewish soldiers would become idlers. At this time, let alone
Having an army idle in Ren'anqiang is really not in line with Lei Ting's battle plan.
"If that's the case, can Taunggyi's troops also go south to Moltke? The three places of Pyay, Taungoo, and Moltke can be firmly contained in a line to block the Japanese army's northward passage. Our 100,000 troops are stationed in three separate areas.
This place can also ensure sufficient strength to fight the enemy, leaving 10,000 troops to serve as mobile troops. Coupled with the militia we recently recruited, northern Myanmar will be safe." He once served as a regiment-level combat staff officer in the Communist Party of China.
Yu Sheng simply moved Taungzhi's battle flag southward to Mao Qi's position.
"No, this is not possible. We put all the troops on the front line to fight the Japanese army. What if the Japanese army crosses the Myanmar-Vietnam border? It is a taboo for military strategists to have empty troops in the rear. Those militia troops do not even have enough weapons.
Once the Japanese army attacks, what will we do to fight the Japanese army? We cannot transfer all the troops south, at least we must ensure that we have enough troops to defend in northern Myanmar." Yu Sheng's plan did not win the support of everyone, and the staff were worried.
It was the lack of military strength in northern Myanmar that would give the Japanese an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"Didn't I say that I would leave 10,000 troops to serve as mobile forces in northern Myanmar. As long as we fight with the Japanese army, we will capture them. We can use the captured weapons to arm the militia forces according to the old practice, even if the Japanese army crosses the border and enters Burma.
As long as there are 20,000 troops stationed in northern Myanmar, northern Myanmar will be safe." Yu Sheng still insisted on his argument.
The dozen or so combat officers in the room were busy discussing feasible plans, but they could never reach an agreement. Looking at the red-faced and thick-necked staff officers who were already arguing, Zhao Zhi had no intention of stopping them.
It is related to the victory or defeat of a battle. It is good to have more disputes when formulating a battle plan. Only endless discussions can get the most correct answer. What's more, the combat consultants in the room don't look at how noisy they are at the moment. In fact, they are
They are all very good friends in private, and Zhao Zhi will never stop them from any public-spirited disputes.
"Deng, Deng, Deng." Seeing that the staff officers who had been arguing for a long time but had not yet reached an agreement were trying to escalate the argument, Zhao Zhi, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, had no choice but to reach out and knock on the table, "The idea of dispatching troops south to contain the Japanese army from moving north is a good idea, but you all seem to have forgotten
What is the original intention of our entry into Burma? The consumption of the Japanese army's effective strength is what our Thunder promised to the National Government and the Americans. It is good to occupy Burma, but our Thunder is a mercenary company after all. Keeping our word is the foundation of our world.
Therefore, all our tactical adjustments must focus on consuming the Japanese army."
Zhao Zhi's words seemed to put a lot of pressure on the staff. The war room, which had been as noisy as a restaurant just now, instantly returned to silence. Zhao Zhi smiled nonchalantly and continued, "Northern Myanmar is the focus of our business. There are two more
In a few years, we can build this place into a paradise, so we must not let the Japanese army draw the war to northern Myanmar, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain."
"Come and see." Zhao Zhi took the baton and summoned the staff in front of the map. "We learned that the Japanese army was going to attack half a month ago, but so far, we have only exchanged fire with the Japanese army at the Toungoo defense line.
We already know that a large number of Japanese troops are recuperating in southern Myanmar. Unfortunately, we still don’t know their specific number, and they have not shown up yet. This situation is obviously very abnormal. The Japanese army must be planning a big plan to get rid of them once and for all.
Our Thunder plan."
"According to my inference, the Japanese army will probably follow their last action plan this time." The baton in Zhao Zhi's hand fell on Toungoo, "The Japanese army should use troops to contain our Toungoo first.
The defenders used this to attract our attention, and then they took a detour north or directly crossed Myanmar and Thailand or the Myanmar-Vietnam border to enter northern Myanmar." As he spoke, Zhao Zhi's headquarters had already moved to the position of Lashio.
, "The purpose of the Japanese army's march north must be Lashio. Only by cutting off our connection with Kunming can the Japanese army defeat us."
"The Japanese army is stupid enough to not modify their battle plan. The 18th Division suffered a big loss in Lashio last time. Are they not afraid of ending up like the 18th Division?" Yes.
The staff members were biting their ears in private. They also wished that the Japanese army would repeat the same mistakes as the 18th Division. The Thunder deployed 20,000 Jewish soldiers and 00 mercenaries in Taunggyi, and there were also Storm Troops in Lashio who had never had a chance to fight.
, the powerful rocket launcher vehicle is not something that the Japanese army can take advantage of.
Maybe he saw what Zhao Zhi was thinking. Yu Sheng blinked and answered, "Sir, what you mean is that we take the initiative to let go of Taunggyi and put our main battlefield with the Japanese army on the front line of Lashio?" Yu Sheng asked.
Zhao Zhi nodded in acquiescence, but this acquiescence greatly surprised the staff. Lashio is the material distribution hub of Thunder. All materials and ammunition from the country, as well as the refugees who are continuously recruited, must enter Myanmar through here.
North, once something goes wrong in Lashio, everything created by Thunder will be fatally threatened.
"This time we are not fighting against the Japanese army. The Nationalist Government has mobilized two armies to gather at the Wanding line to guard their gates. There are now 10,000 troops stationed in Lashio, as well as the Storm Troops and Qingfeng Troops to assist in the defense. I plan to
Allocate another 20,000 troops to Lashio to form a defensive line to intercept the Japanese troops heading north." Zhao Zhi's command headquarters fell heavily on the vacant area north of Taunggyi, "This will be the main battlefield for our decisive battle with the Japanese troops, Joey's
The Armored Division has already moved south to Taungoo. As long as we can be sure that the main force of the Japanese army is moving northward along Moltke, the Armored Division will immediately attack Moltke and move northward. Before the Japanese army cuts off our retreat, we will cut off their retreat."
Zhao Zhi's tactical adjustment analysis meeting lasted for a long time. The guards guarding outside the war room changed twice before Zhao Zhi and the others came out of the war room exhausted. Compared with the exhaustion on their faces, the look in everyone's eyes
Hotness was their true psychological expression at the moment. Zhao Zhi's plan was a bit bold, but after careful analysis, everyone believed that the plan was very feasible to implement, and the Japanese soldiers who fell into this trap would never end well.
