Chapter 587 The Battle of Yunnan and Burma (11)

Zhang Deen also squinted his eyes slightly when he looked at the scene in front of him. After all, this time, if the Japanese division was destroyed by them, the Japanese army's strength in the entire Myanmar would be greatly affected.

Who doesn't want to see such a thing? Except for the Japanese army, I'm afraid everyone wants to see this fact.

The Japanese army invested so much in Myanmar. If they were allowed to continue to invest in combat forces, they would be too big. The Japanese army's current front line was very wide, and they played almost all the cards they could use in their hands. In order to have a good result at this time.

However, the Japanese army thought their strength was enough to shock the Eight Desolates, but just one 18th Army disrupted their deployment. Such things really made them unable to accept them. At this moment, the Japanese army did not know Wang Mingyu’s real plan. If they knew, they would probably be frightened.

Wang Mingyu's plan was to accelerate the defeat of the Japanese army through the Battle of Yunnan and Burma. He tried to completely drive the Japanese army out of China this year. This idea was really too horrifying. It was not that the Japanese army was unwilling to think about it, but that the Japanese army did not dare to think about it at all.

Do they think Wang Mingyu can do it? Even if the Japanese army knew Wang Mingyu’s thoughts, they would probably just think he was crazy and would never think that Wang Mingyu could really do it to this extent. In fact, Wang Mingyu didn’t bother explaining these things at all. Is there anyone who knows his strength better than him?

Absolutely not, so Wang Mingyu's biggest trump card now is that he knows the current situation of the Japanese army. He knows that the Japanese army is at the end of its strength. The Japanese army still looks very powerful now, but Wang Mingyu knows that their role is like the last straw that crushed the Japanese army. If it goes down thousands of miles, even if the Japanese army is determined, there will be no way to stop this decline.

Now Zhang Deen's troops are taking the first step of Wang Mingyu's counterattack against the Japanese army, which is to destroy the incomplete division of the Japanese army. Of course, Wang Mingyu didn't know about this, Zhang Deen did it himself.

At this time, Wang Mingyu still thought about being safe first, but Zhang Deen is on the battlefield now and is more familiar with the situation on the battlefield than anyone else. At this time, Zhang Deen made the most stable plan, or the most reasonable plan.

Although Sakurai Shizuo knew the combat intentions of the Chinese army, others could retreat, but they could not retreat. The 33rd Division would never destroy its reputation for life.

So Sakurai Shizuo would never order his troops to retreat at this moment. Even if they fought to the end, they would not have any reason to retreat. Unlike the special forces of the Wild Gang Wolf, they were the example of the Imperial soldiers.

At this time, you will escape when you see the Chinese army. What about the future? If a unit loses its momentum, then this unit will have no meaning. Therefore, even if the entire army is wiped out, it will not allow the Chinese army to establish confidence in the Japanese army. Once the Chinese army establishes such confidence, the Japanese army will be the worst at that time.

Sakurai Sakuzo was not completely desperate. Now he still had hope, that is, to temporarily suppress his troops, what are the benefits of doing this? That is, he can completely let the Chinese army's attack do useless work first, and he can advance and retreat freely.

But what Sakurai Shizuo was most desperate was that he might never be able to complete the tasks assigned by the military headquarters. From the current situation, it can be seen that the Chinese army had mobilized heavy troops and began to gather in this area.

Then what followed was the Chinese army's crazy counterattack. Even if there was no Chinese army's counterattack, their 33rd Division was just a paper tiger and it would never be possible to seize food at the tiger's mouth. If it were an ordinary Chinese army, even if it was a hundred thousand, Sakurai Satomi would not be so desperate.

In fact, if the Japanese military headquarters can give him a message that they can retreat at any time, then I am afraid that Sakurai will turn around and leave without saying a word. However, the importance of Myanmar to the Japanese army is self-evident. The 15th Army is now in danger, and the base camp has almost given them an ultimatum.

Now they have the only way to save themselves, which is to take down the entire Myanmar and block the transportation supply line of the Chinese army. Once the plan is successful, the Japanese army's control over China will reach a peak within a period of time.

Then the Japanese army may win without fighting on the battlefield in China, or make any requests from China, so the Japanese army can obtain a large amount of war reparations and start war with all their might. At that time, the entire Far East and Pacific region will be controlled in their hands.

So the Japanese army is still asking for it in this area? The Japanese army's wishful thinking is naturally very smart, but now the development of things is not moving towards their direction. In fact, when the Japanese army and other Axis powers are in a prosperous state, the allies are temporarily in a relatively weak state.

But when the Allies take a breath, the Allies will occupy the right time, place, and people, and their counterattack will definitely be beyond imagination by any Axis power. Historical changes are always inadvertent, and no one expected that the counterattack would begin so quickly, and it appeared on this battlefield in Myanmar.

To be honest, although the United States was a little shocked by the Japanese army's war against them, there was absolutely no threat to the United States' homeland. Therefore, the Americans would never feel any discomfort or nervousness.

On the contrary, they are now trying to find opportunities, but war is already a common thing for the Japanese army, and the US military will not expect to gain advantage from the Japanese army for a while. The US's current thinking is actually still the intention to use China.

In fact, everyone can see that China is the largest piece of cake for the Japanese army. In order to win their victory, the United States has now begun to provide assistance to China in disguise. They were definitely not so generous before. I think they wanted to use the Chinese to eradicate the Japanese army, so that the US military would lose a huge threat in the Far East and maintain the US military’s dominance in the Pacific.

However, China is definitely not going to refuse the aid of the United States, because why? Even if the United States does not provide assistance, China must drive away the Japanese invaders. So although the United States aids itself for themselves, is China also not for itself? In fact, this is a win-win situation.

"Military Commander Luo Jiapeng's First Division sent a telegram, they had blocked the Japanese army's retreat. They would never let any Japanese army go!Military Commander Luo asked when the military commander would start attacking." The serviceman asked.

"You tell Luo Jiapeng, it means that the troops will start attacking at 5 o'clock in the morning. At that time, we will attack inside and outside, which will definitely make the Japanese division the first division to be eliminated in an entire system!" Zhang Deen said with great enthusiasm that the Japanese division had never appeared in the history of the 18th Army. However, this time Zhang Deen did not report his thoughts to Wang Mingyu, and he wanted to give Wang Mingyu a surprise.

In fact, Wang Mingyu is also hesitating whether to start a counterattack. Because once a counterattack is counterattack, it will inevitably disrupt the entire Japanese plan, but more importantly, the Myanmar battlefield will become a real battlefield.

However, even if Wang Mingyu knew Zhang Deen’s thoughts, there was no blame. After all, transferring the battlefield from China to Myanmar is still a great opportunity for the rest and recuperation of the entire China. Moving the battlefield outside is also a temporary relief for the suffering China.

In the command of the 15th Japanese Army, Yoshiro Iida looked at the telegram in his hand depressedly. Almost all three places were not going well. When the Special Forces Regiment just passed, he sent a good news.

But before Ida Yoshiro was happy for a long time, a telegram that almost caused Yoshiro Ida Yoshiro to collapse was sent over again. Sakurai Satomi sent this telegram to Yoshiro Ida Yoshiro almost by saying goodbye. How could Yoshiro Ida Yoshiro Ida Yoshiro not be alarmed?

Looking at the telegram in his hand, Iida Yoshiro sighed and said, "Didn't Amaterasu stand on our side? Chief of Staff, how likely do you think the 33rd Division of Sakurai Sakumi can survive this time?"

The Chief of Staff thought for a moment and said, "It's almost zero possibility! If the earthquake really hit the main force of the 18th Army as they said, then I'm sure they have basically disappeared from the territory of the 15th Army."

Listening to the Chief of Staff, Yoshiro Iida was shocked and said, "Is there no other way? Should we send the 55th Division to reinforce? If the 33rd Division is destroyed, then we may have a trip to Myanmar. I am really unwilling to give up!"

The Chief of Staff shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I have to say that we are in a difficult situation now. We cannot give up the attack on the 18th Army, or the attack of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. But if we really want to attack, we may be wiped out as a whole 15th Army."

Iida Xiangjiro smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think we still have any way out now? No more! We can only attack one way. If we can't win the attack again, then we can only die in the attack again! This is our destiny, and it is also the destiny of Sakurai Shen San!"

The Chief of Staff nodded and said, "Sacrificing one's life for the empire is the glory of our soldiers!"

Iida Yoshiro ordered: "Order the 33rd Division of Sakurai Temple to attack the right wing defense zone of the China Army from tomorrow. If the mission is not completed, then he will not come back to see me! In addition, the special forces will grasp it yourself!"

For the special forces, Iida Shojiro absolutely did not have any all-out efforts to let them defend or anything. This was the army sent by the Imperial Command, and he did not have any power to let them die.

The biggest problem now is this. Without the help of the special forces, the 33rd Division would probably be rootless duckweed. Iida Shojiro resisted his heartache and let someone send this order out. When Sakurai Sakumi received this order, he felt a little sad.

He also knew that Yoshiro Iida is actually in a similar situation as theirs. If all the divisions of his own are eliminated, the strength of the 15th Army in Myanmar will be greatly reduced, and then he Yoshiro Iida will not be able to escape the punishment of the empire.

The eldest brother did not say the second brother, and the monk did not scold Tu. Sakurai Shizo already knew his fate, but he also understood Iida Sujiro. He did not have any doubts about Iida Sujiro's telegram. The wild wolf sighed slightly when he saw the telegram.

He knew everything about the 18th Group Army. This time, the division of Sakurai Shinu must really explain it here. The content on the telegram was for them to follow. In fact, Ye Shangyong still wanted to stay and fight, but reason told him that this was unrealistic and very unrealistic.

Their special forces do not have the large-scale weapons of destruction like combat troops. At that time, a shell fell and I don’t know how many elites of the special forces will die. The wild wolf must not put his destiny here to gamble and take risks.

From the moment the 18th Group actively appeared, the wild wolf was actually ready to retreat. The special forces were far more effective than to die here, so they would never die here.

The wild wolf looked at Sakurai Shizumi, and Sakurai Shizumi also looked at the wild wolf. From the hesitant eyes of the wild wolf, it can be seen that the wild wolf would never leave all of its troops here. However, Sakurai Shizumi also nodded at the wild wolf with understanding, indicating that he understood his behavior.

Yesan Aolang said: "The value of the existence of the special forces wing is not only these. I also know the difficulties of Sakurai Kwan, but I will never put my people here to die. Maybe we will destroy more than twice or even twice their people, but this is not a reflection of our value. We have more important tasks to do!"

Sakurai Satoshi said: "Not need to say more. I understand that loyalty to the empire is also a kind of honor. Our 33rd Division has absolutely no retreat. Although I have regrets in my heart, I have absolutely no fear. There are more than 100 divisions in the empire, and we are just one of them. We died in battle, so naturally there are other divisions. I have no requests. I just want to ask that Lord Ye Shang Canglang can avenge the dead imperial warriors of my division!"

The wild wolf said without hesitation: "I will convey your words to the commander truthfully. Your loyalty and spirit will surely be a role model for my imperial soldiers to learn from!"

Sakurai Jozo smiled sadly, and his smile was filled with helplessness. If you could retreat if you could not defeat it, then there would be no such nonsense now. However, the 33rd Division of the 15th Army had no way out. They could only walk one way to the black.

Originally, Sakurai Shizumi believed that the arrival of the special forces could change the current situation on the battlefield, but Sakurai Shizumi did not expect that the Chinese army would suddenly have tens of thousands of additional troops. In fact, Sakurai Shizumi still didn't know that their retreat had been cut off.

However, Sakurai Shinzo didn't think about running away at all, so he didn't send a scout to see the back. Time flew away quickly, and the next morning came soon. Sakurai Shinzo didn't fall asleep overnight, and now he seemed to be enjoying the last time of his life.

From today on, they will be on the verge of desperate attacks. When Sakurai Satozo was attacking, Zhang Deen didn't expect that in Zhang Deen's opinion, Sakurai Satozo should be running away, not attacking. Even Zhang Deen had cut off their retreat, but he didn't expect that they did not escape, and it seemed that they were still going to attack.

Could it be that there is something wrong with it? If something goes wrong, it is a monster. Zhang Deen naturally needs to be extra cautious. However, Zhang Deen really can't see any tricks in Sakurai's troops. Could it be that the Japanese army wants to fight to trap beasts?

Zhang Deen snorted coldly, "The fight of trapped beasts? That is also the ending of trapped beasts and will definitely lose."

Zhang Deen strode to the command center and said, "Order all the troops of the Second and Third Division to prepare for the enemy. The original plan will be changed. Order the First Division to surround the back and attack on both sides. Order the Flying Battalion, the subordinates of the Flying Division, bombed the Japanese positions. The Tank Brigade and the Field Artillery Brigade will enter the designated combat position."

"Yes, the military seat!"

After Zhang Deen's order was issued, the entire war process was completely accelerated. The Japanese army could no longer stand such an atmosphere, and they were likely to be unable to withstand the attack this time. This time, Sakurai Shizuo could not withstand the pressure.

With a mortality, he was determined to compete with the main force of the 18th Army of the China Army in the right wing defense zone. Obviously, everything about the 18th Army was heard of. Sakurai Shizuo, who was deep in his heart, still hoped that he could make a breakthrough this time.

If you can survive and protect your own system, no one wants your troops to disappear in your hands. Especially at the level of division commander, they will never allow such things to happen. In fact, Sakurai Shizuo still has a momentum of not admitting defeat.

He didn't believe that the 18th Army was so myth. He believed that as long as it was a force, they could naturally defeat it, but the people who fought with it before did not find any good methods. Now Sakurai Shizuo was determined to give it a try, and this might really create a miracle.

In fact, Sakurai Shizuo has almost no possibility of creating a miracle. Although their division still maintains strong firepower, Cong Ke's Japanese planes could no longer threaten the 18th Army's troops in the opposite defense zone.

Sun Liren's troops did not have air defense facilities, but this does not mean that Zhang Deen's troops did not. This time it was an almost overwhelming advantage. Zhang Deen's troops had a tank brigade, a flight brigade and a field artillery brigade as support.

Although most of the soldiers were originally from the First Army, after joining so many cooperative troops, the overall combat effectiveness of the First Army has obviously improved by more than one level. In the past, they suffered losses and made up for the losses. The most important thing is that they not only made up for the losses, but also established an overwhelming advantage in this regard.

The configuration of a division in the Japanese army is definitely not so exaggerated. Zhang Deen's troops exceeded the organization of two divisions in the Japanese army. Moreover, this does not count strategic weapons such as flight brigades, tank brigades, and field artillery brigades.

This kind of firepower is basically the most powerful firepower configuration that can be found at present. Moreover, Wang Mingyu's pilot is basically retired pilots from the US Air Force, and his combat capabilities are absolutely unquestionable. They are receiving very high salaries, so they want to use their remaining energy at this time.

Furthermore, it is absolutely impossible for these people to deal with planes for so long, saying that they have no feelings. Since they have feelings, then Wang Mingyu is just the beauty of adulthood. Both sides hit it off and do their favorite work with high salaries. What a pleasant thing that is?

"Report to the commander of the division, we found a large number of Chinese troops excavating fortifications behind our army!" A Japanese major said, "What? When did the Chinese troops arrive at our rear?" Sakurai Satozo rushed to the next side of the map.

Because the terrain of this area is very complex, they rarely use field sand tables to deduce it. Now the map has become the only pointing mark of the Japanese army. Looking at Sakurai Shizuo's face is very bad, everyone knows that this time the Chinese army has absolutely no intention to let them go, and even their retreat has been blocked.

Sakurai Sanyi said with a decisive look on his face: "You guys, the empire has prepared for this holy war for so long. But we have not been able to complete the tasks assigned to us by the empire. This is very regrettable. However, my 33rd Division will never embarrass the empire. Even if we fight to the last war, we feel that we cannot bow our heads like the Chinese army. We are the Yamato people, and we are the highest race! Our soldiers are also the most outstanding soldiers in the empire."

"Please rest assured, you must follow the division commander and defeat the China pig on the opposite side!" A Zhongzuo roared below and roared.

"Yes, division commander, the Chinese army is just like this. Our great Japanese empire was invincible on the battlefield in China, and no one could stop the empire's advancement. We are the same now. Although the number of Chinese army on the opposite side is superior, did our empire's army win with less? The number of people definitely does not represent strength!" A regiment leader said proudly.

"The empire just needs blood and killing! Even if we die, we must contribute our last strength to the empire's holy war!" several people said one after another.

"Please rest assured, I, Sakurai Satozo, swear here that I will never run away without fighting. We will use our blood to dye the flag of our 33rd Division! Long live the Great Japanese Empire, Long live the Emperor!" Sakurai Satozo said hoarsely. In fact, even he himself did not believe that his troops could finally reach the end.

But no matter what, this morale cannot be lost. If even the final morale is lost, then the final fate of the 33rd Division will only disappear forever in the empire's establishment. Sakurai Satozo continued: "Order the troops to start attacking forward! Never retreat, the Chinese army behind do not care about them. Our goal is to take down the right wing defense zone of the Chinese army. We will definitely not give them any chance. I will ask for credit for you after this battle!"

"Thank you! Your Excellency Commander!" All the Japanese officers lowered their heads.

The war was about to begin, and the Japanese army now had less than 15,000 remaining, which was their last trump card. At this moment, the Wild Canglang had already led his troops to retreat in Tonggu. They could only go to the 55th Division and the 56th Division to join them. In the Wild Canglang's view, the last battle of the 33rd Division was probably here.

The Japanese army was in a dark and approached the right wing defense zone from all directions. At this moment, the Japanese army had no tactics, and they had only one goal, that is, to take down the right wing defense zone. Any Japanese army that took the lead in taking down this defense zone is definitely the first minister. Of course, the premise is that the Japanese army must take down the right wing defense zone. But the current problem is indeed whether the 33rd Division can not be eliminated. As for the defense zone, it can basically be said to be as solid as a decent person.

"Fight!" With Zhang De'en's order, guns and cannons all over the sky resounded across the land of the right wing defense zone. At this moment, the entire battlefield was in a fire of war, which made people feel a little suffocating. The colors on the sky were shrouded in rolling black smoke. The sound of fighting shocked the entire battlefield looked filled with solemn atmosphere.

Zhang Deen looked at the scene with a telescope, smiled and said, "When will the First Division be in place?"

"The military throne, depending on their situation, will be at least half an hour!"

"Order the troops to cut off the Japanese army's retreat at all costs. This time we will make them regret coming to this place!"

Under the leadership of Luo Jiapeng, the first division has begun to approach the Japanese army continuously. At this moment, they are not anxious. In fact, the main force that eliminated the Japanese army this time is actually the Second and Third Divisions, and the task of the first division is to surround and intercept the Japanese deserters.

However, under the instigation of Sakurai Satomi, these Japanese troops no longer had the kind of people who were afraid of death. These things were all watched by one person. This time the First Division was surprisingly depressed. I originally thought that a large number of deserters would appear after the battle. But after waiting for a long time, there was no deserter. How could this make Luo Jiapeng of the First Division feel? So now he is full of anger. But war cannot be eaten into a fat man in one breath.

More than 10,000 people will have to be killed for a long time. Moreover, these people are still resisting and fighting. This time, the Japanese army is completely chaotic attack. The so-called chaotic fist can kill the master. Such an attack seems useless, but it is often the best way to break the deadlock. At this moment, the Japanese army is fighting with the first and second divisions, and there are some relatively low positions that have changed hands more than several times. The more intense the battle is, the more it shows the uncertainty of the war.

Originally, Zhang Deen seemed to be able to handle this group of Japanese troops easily, but they did not expect that they would rush forward like crazy. There was no sign of retreating at all. The mountains of corpses in front had no effect on them.

At this moment, they seemed to think that life was not their own life, but a small grass that made people wantonly trampled on it. From morning to noon, from noon to evening, Zhang Deen sent tank brigades to conduct joint infantry and combat attacks twice. Five tanks were also lost.

After a day of fierce battle, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties. Almost ordinary troops were wiped out by the Second and Third Divisions on this battlefield. After a day of battle, almost every Japanese army was exhausted, and death was already insensitive to them. In their hearts, they hoped to end this contest that could not be watched as soon as possible.

The 18 Group is here, and the death and injury rate is much smaller, and the advantage they are in is too obvious. This time, the loss is less than 2,000 people. This stop is almost the final conclusion, that is, the 33rd Division of the Japanese army will probably disappear on the entire battlefield in at most two days.

The battle continued the next day. Sakurai Shizo looked at the soldiers of the empire falling one by one on the battlefield, and a feeling of power suddenly emerged in his heart. Faced with such a powerful Chinese army, can the empire really achieve common prosperity in Greater East Asia?

I don’t know how the other three divisions are going on. If they encounter situations like this, then the empire’s plan will go bankrupt. What else can we get with the Chinese army? Sakurai Satomiya thinks more and more, and he doubts about his beliefs. In a war of power across the country, what do they want to get in the end? China? But if they want to get China, why go to war with the US army? Could it be that the empire can already be strong enough to unify the entire East?

At this moment, Sakurai Shizuo suddenly woke up. The Empire weaved a very beautiful dream for them. Everyone lived in this dream and didn't want to wake up. At the last moment of life, Sakurai Shizuo woke up. Although he woke up a little late, he did wake up.

Sakurai Shizumi was depressed. His belief in him was shaken. He had never wavered his belief so much at this moment. Sakurai Shizumi thought of his wife and his children living under Mount Fuji where cherry blossoms were blooming. He knew that he would never have the possibility of going back in his life.

Sakurai Shizumi knew that he would rather die than be a prisoner of the Chinese army. Even if everyone else was a prisoner, he could not. In the last moment of his life, Sakurai Shizumi did not think about the empire, but about his wife and children.

On the morning of the third day, in the command center of Sakurai Shizumi, Sakurai Shizumi left a suicide note that he didn't know if he could send it and left the world. In fact, by the next night, the number of Japanese troops left was less than 2,000.

The final page of these two thousand people did not survive at this moment. Of course, they were accompanied by the heroic spirit of their division commander. The news of Sakurai Sakumi's suicide spread too suddenly. It is foreseeable that even their division commander gave up on it. What else can these soldiers insist on?

In the end, the remaining two thousand people gave up. They chose the surrender that Sakurai Shinzo least wanted to see, and it was led by their chief of staff. However, Sakurai Shinzo closed his eyes and nothing was his business. The battle in the right-wing defense zone disappeared at this moment.
