Among the various units of the Expeditionary Force, Huang Hua's special artillery brigade was the last to know that the commander-in-chief was seriously injured. When the news spread among the officers and soldiers of the special artillery brigade, they immediately became excited and demanded to go to war to avenge the commander-in-chief. Public opinion
It's hard to deny, and Huang Huaxin also has this idea. Going to war is a certainty. However, when choosing the target of attack and the method of revenge, a problem arises - the combat method of the special artillery brigade determines that they cannot launch an attack alone.
, and because they only accept the command of Ouyang Yun, now Ouyang Yun and the headquarters have hidden their whereabouts, and they have no contact signals from other departments, so a very practical problem is faced - where should they attack and where should they attack?
How to fight?
Some people suggested going to Sha Kao Mansion, because the 2nd and 3rd Mountain Divisions are in that area, and going there would be the worst possible way to help them defend.
Some people suggested going directly to Chachoengsao because intelligence showed that a large number of Japanese and Thai troops gathered there.
There were various opinions, and Huang Hua couldn't help but hesitate to make a decision. At this moment, the news came that Division Guo Da had captured Tailong Army Camp and issued the harsh words "Kill without mercy". He immediately decided to go to Tailong Army Camp.
The special artillery brigade could only take the main road because of its special equipment, so Huang Hua chose to drive along the main road from Pobiet to a Cambodian town on the Thai-Cambodian border in Trat Province. When they arrived at that town, they heard about Chu
News that Tiange's First Army captured Tongai Mansion and surrounded Tamai. Huang Hua, as a member of the student training class of the army's starting force, is naturally closer to Chu Tiange emotionally. It is speculated that Chu Tiange is feeling sad at this moment.
In his mood, he felt that he could get more hearty revenge by following Chu Tiange, so he ordered to march towards him instead.
An hour and a half later, the Special Artillery Brigade and the First Corps of the Cadet Expeditionary Force met up. When Huang Hua got off the car and saw Chu Tiange, he burst into tears immediately. When Chu Tiange came to greet him, he took two steps ahead.
He saluted, then hugged him and said sobbingly: "Brother Chu, Commander-in-Chief, Commander-in-Chief——"
Huang Hua's reaction was a bit big. Chu Tiange was still a little uncomfortable after seeing the lively Ouyang Yun. He was adjusting his emotions to cooperate with Huang Hua to continue the play. Behind him, Xu Zhi, Feng Lanshan and others had already been affected.
Infection began to cry. Chu Tiange was moved and did not need to adjust his emotions. He silently patted Huang Hua's back hard and said in his ear: "We are all brigade commanders. Please control your emotions. Always
The commander was just seriously injured, nothing more than that."
Huang Hua then stopped crying, let go of him, wiped his face and said, "Brother Chu, we must avenge the Commander-in-Chief, so just give the order! I will listen to you on how to fight next!"
The arrival of the special artillery brigade enhanced Chu Tiange's confidence in raiding Bangkok. He discussed with Huang Hua and others for more than an hour, formulated a plan to calculate the Japanese aviation force, and then ordered to attack Rayong, 30 kilometers away.
Marched forward and occupied the deserted Rayong Province without any blood around three o'clock in the morning.
It was dawn the next day. From the Bangkok Military Airport, three reconnaissance planes belonging to the Sun-Sea Airlines Kisarajin Air Force took off one after another, flying towards Tailong Military Camp, Sa Kaew Province and Rayong Province respectively. Half an hour later, Chachoengsao Navy and Marine Corps
General Masuda Tomikawa, the headquarters of the First Army of the Sentai, received the reconnaissance information from one of its reconnaissance planes. He read the telegram carefully and handed it to the Chief of Staff, Major General Haneda Haru. He said: "
The Chinese did not burn down Rayong. It seems that they wanted to use this place as an advance base. In order to deter the Thais, the Chinese relied too much on heavy artillery and their ammunition was consumed very quickly. If I expected it to be true, they probably would not have any weapons this morning.
Big military action."
Haneda nodded and said: "Definitely, they must wait here for the baggage troops to replenish the ammunition. Your Excellency, this is our opportunity!"
"You mean an air attack on their baggage troops?"
"No, I think the best way is to wait for the baggage troops to enter the city and launch an air attack suddenly when they are loading and unloading ammunition."
"Haneda-kun, you and I have come together. Call us back and ask Sakamoto Tuye to increase the reconnaissance frequency. Tell him to pay attention to avoiding the eyes and ears of the Chinese people. It is safer to detour from the sea and directly reconnoiter their depth."
"Hai!"
Haneda drafted the telegram himself. About ten minutes later, he came to Masuda again and handed him another telegram report: "Your Excellency, please come forward to communicate with Mr. Yamamoto about this matter and ask him to report it to the Thai people. Putting pressure on. The Thai people are too timid. Even at this time, they don’t dare to completely offend the British.”
Masuda took the telegram and looked at it, his eyes became sinister, and said: "There is no need to bother Mr. Yamamoto with this trivial matter, let me handle it!" Then he walked to the desk, picked up the phone and said: " My name is Masuda Tomikawa, give me Prime Minister Kanson’s special line!”
Unlike the Japanese Lao Shenzai, as hundreds of thousands of refugees continued to pour into the Bangkok area, the southeastern region of Thailand was completely burned. Kansong and other Thai high-level officials fell into a huge panic. When Masuda's call came in At that time, Kansong was sternly reprimanding the police chief of Bangkok, asking him to ensure order in the capital no matter what, and not to let a single refugee enter the city. Masuda's phone call helped the police chief to solve the problem, and Kansong's big hand With a wave, the sweating police chief breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ran away.
Although the Japanese have given various guarantees, they have not taken any major practical actions so far. Kansong is already quite dissatisfied with the Japanese. Of course, Japan's hundreds of thousands of troops and nearly half a million of the so-called National Independence Army have presented themselves to the On the border between Malaysia and Thailand, he did not dare to be disrespectful at all. He first waved the adjutant away, then gritted his teeth and took a deep breath to calm down. He picked up the phone and said as calmly as possible: "General Masuda, I heard that you If you come to me in an emergency, do you have a way to deal with the Xuebing Army?"
Kansong did not dare to be disrespectful to Masuda verbally, and Masuda also did not dare to reveal his true feelings towards Kansong. Kansong had asked this question no less than ten times, so Masuda had developed a strong immunity. He tried to avoid answering the question and went straight to the subject: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, I just received a report from my subordinates that the British were causing trouble again and killed two imperial soldiers! But your subordinates didn't Let our military police hold the perpetrators accountable. Your Excellency, do you think that the lives of our imperial soldiers are not as valuable as those of the British?"
In fact, Kansong didn't know about this at all. He had not yet won against the invasion of the Xuebing Army. He had no time to pay attention to the trivial matters in the prisoner of war camp. He felt that Masuda's tone was very harsh, so he deliberately eased the atmosphere and said: "Zeng Song General Tian, what are you talking about? The lives of your soldiers are naturally more precious than those of the British. Don’t worry, I will ask someone to investigate this matter thoroughly. If it is true, I will hand over the murderer to you immediately!"
"No need to go to such trouble, Your Excellency, I think it is better to hand over the defense of the prisoner of war camp to our army. Your Excellency, please forgive me for asking, if you insist on not handing over these British prisoners of war to us, do you still want to keep and Do the British use it to make peace?"
"No, how is that possible?"
"Then please hand over the defense of the prisoner of war camp directly to our army. Your Excellency, our military police brigade in Bangkok has already gone to take over. Now we are waiting for your order."
