Chapter 77: Could this be a conspiracy?
"Are you trying to say that I'm too bold? I even dare to betray my allies?" Looking at Long Wenjian's stunned expression, Cun Yunsheng said with a chuckle.

Did you know?

What if the British army knew about this!
Don't you have to shed a layer of skin?

Everyone knows that the British are the most capable of being hooligans.

So, Long Wenjian was very puzzled. Since you know all this, why do you still do this?
"Dead, dead. Have you heard a saying? Taoism emphasizes that grudges should be avenged on the spot and not left overnight, otherwise one's Taoist heart will be unstable." Cun Yunsheng looked at the other party and sighed.

Hearing this, Long Wenjian looked at the other party in surprise.

"Commander, do you still believe in Taoism?"

"I don't believe it." Cun Yunsheng shook his head and said.

"But the Taoist principles of doing things are worth learning."

"Besides, are the British army the only ones allowed to betray their allies? We are not allowed to betray them a bit?"

"You should be bolder and stop looking ahead and behind. I really appreciate the way you pretend to be Yu Xiaoqing."

"Remember, if you meet someone who is more rogue than you, what you have to do is to be more rogue than him."

Cun Yunsheng’s words left Long Wenjian speechless. At the same time, he felt that his three views were completely shattered. Could it be possible to be like this?
But when I think about it carefully, I feel that what Cun Yunsheng said makes sense.

If it were him, he might have just swallowed his anger.

"Commander, it's you who can make the matter of betraying our allies sound so righteous." Long Wenjian couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Okay, remember, this is something that only the three of us know about. If anyone else knows about it, you know the consequences. I don't know much else, but I have many ways to torture people." Cun Yunsheng waved his hand and then reminded him again.

"I understand. Please rest assured, no one else will know about it." Meng Fanle and Long Wenjian shuddered and quickly made an assurance.

Not long after, the sound of transport planes was heard above the airport. It was obvious that the supplies that Stilwell delivered to the Sichuan Army had arrived.

This made Colonel Rogers on the ground look indignant.

He didn't expect that the US military would think so highly of this expeditionary force.

They actually used transport planes to deliver supplies, which is a better treatment than the British army.

For a moment, Colonel Rogers thought about abandoning the airport and following the transport plane back to the rear.

After all, this shabby place is terrifying to live in.

He was afraid that the Japanese army would come the next day and he would be captured.

However, thinking of his previous embarrassing behavior, Colonel Rogers was too embarrassed to go back.

He thought it would be better to wait a few more days until everyone had forgotten about the matter before going back.

Perhaps Stilwell felt that he owed the Sichuan Army Corps, so the supplies shipped this time were of very high standards.

It can be said that the transportation is completely in accordance with the US military's food standards.

Bacon and bread, various canned meats and jams, lime juice and rum, etc.

Even chocolates, cheese on toast and more were delivered.

There were about ten items scattered around, and even coffee was delivered to the American instructors.

According to Milong, the entire two transport planes were filled with food.

Enough to feed them for a month.

"Is this the food standard of the US military? Look at what we ate before, what was it called? It was simply pig food." Meng Fanle looked at the food in front of him, his eyes turned red.

"I'm so annoyed. What are you talking about, you bastard? What is pig food? You eat the snake soup the most, and that's called pig food?" Ma Dazhi said with some dissatisfaction.

"That's right, when you say pig food, do you want to call the commander a pig?" The shameless Long Wenjian had already become friends with them a long time ago, and he took this opportunity to make a sarcastic remark.

Cun Yunsheng, on the other hand, looked indifferent. He knew that Long Wenjian was still angry and would make a few sarcastic remarks to him from time to time.

In the original novel, Yu Xiaoqing was quite angry.

"Milong, the food rations that will be given to you later are what he calls pig food." Cun Yunsheng's words made Long Wenjian open his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.

For a moment, I wanted to slap myself twice.

What are you talking about?

Why don’t I learn my lesson?

"Commander, do we have to eat so well every meal?" Lin Yi couldn't help but ask.

For him, this meal was the best he had ever had.

"Damn it, if I had such good food every day, I would risk my life for it. Why can't the British fight well? They run faster than rabbits." Li Sifu also complained.

"Okay, let's eat quickly. You're not hungry, right?" Cun Yunsheng was too lazy to answer their question. He started eating first and stuffed a large piece of bacon directly into his mouth.

Seeing that their own group leader had started eating, the others also started to eat voraciously.

On the other side, at the headquarters of the 56th Division of the Japanese Army, Lieutenant General Masao Watanabe looked at the map with a frown.

Since the capture of Tonggu, the 56th Division's offensive speed has greatly increased after it replaced its equipment with trucks and tanks left behind by the British Army.

They even defeated the Provisional 55th Division head-on, and captured Tangji with fierce attacks. After a short rest, they rushed to attack Lashio.

That's right!

What needs to be done is to cut off the retreat route of the expeditionary force on the Eastern Front and completely annihilate all the expeditionary forces on the Eastern Front.

I have to say that Masao Watanabe has a very big appetite.

One division wanted to swallow up tens of thousands of expeditionary forces.

But we have to admit that there is absolutely nothing wrong with his strategic thinking.

Lashio is a very important material transit station, surrounded by virgin forests.

It is also an important gateway to northern Myanmar.

Without this escape route, the expeditionary army could only go into the Savage Mountains if they wanted to return home. It was easy to enter the primeval forest, but difficult to get out.

If ten thousand people go in, probably only one or two thousand can come out.

What we need to do now is to hope that Colonel Soshiro Oka’s 146th Infantry Regiment can fight back and quickly capture Lashio.

"Report, we have detected a strange telegram." At this time, the combat staff came in with a telegram and said in a low voice.

"Strange telegram?" Watanabe Masao looked at the other party with confusion.

"Yes, because this telegram uses the code book we seized from the Provisional 55th Division." The operations staff hesitated for a moment, but still said it.

"You mean, the Chinese used the code book we seized to send telegrams?" Watanabe Masao was stunned, then looked at the other party again.

"What's the content?"

"The Sichuan Army is at Tangji Airport." The combat staff officer said and handed over the telegram.

After receiving the telegram, Watanabe Masao frowned slightly.

"Is it the Sichuan Army Corps that defeated Takeuchi Hiroshi's entire regiment head-on?"

"They should be. There is only one Sichuan Army Corps in the expeditionary force, so they should be the ones." The combat staff nodded.

As for Yu Xiaoqing's Sichuan Army, they were automatically ignored.

There is no way, it’s because Yu Xiaoqing’s Sichuan Army didn’t achieve any decent results.

The only battle we fought was when we were surrounded by the Japanese army. If we hadn't fought to the death, we would probably have lost all our lives.

Therefore, the Japanese army did not take the other side seriously.

After all, among the 200-strong expeditionary force, only the th Division and the newly formed th Division were truly famous.

Why did Watanabe Masao launch a surprise attack on Lashio? Wasn't it to completely wipe out the 200th Division?

There is a difference between eliminating the elite and the miscellaneous.

"Wow, I didn't expect them to get to Tangji Airport. It seems they went around the woods to Tangji." Watanabe Masao did not doubt it, because Myanmar has high mountains and dense forests, and no one knows where there is a path.

But the operations staff still felt something was suspicious.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, could this be a trap?"

"Why do you say that?" Watanabe Masao asked with a frown.

"Because the other party used the code book we seized to send the telegram. According to the previous situation where we pretended to be the other party's telegraph operator and were discovered, the expeditionary force should have changed the code book, but they still used this code book to send telegrams."

"I suspect this is a trap, a snare to lure the Imperial Army." After the operations staff finished the analysis, he looked at the other party.

Hearing this, Watanabe Masao frowned even deeper, because he felt that what the other party said made sense.

"Is it possible that they have been marching in the woods all the time and therefore did not know that the code book had been leaked?" After a long time, Watanabe Masao spoke.

"After all, you and I both know that marching in a dense forest will affect the radio signal."

After hearing this, the operations staff felt that this was still a possibility.

"No matter whether it is a trap or not, we must eat him. We want to let Takeuchi Hiroshi see what a true imperial warrior is and teach him how to fight." Watanabe Masao raised his voice.

The two sides are now one in the east and one in the west, and both of them are competing secretly.

Whoever achieves greater results will be promoted.

At present, Watanabe Masao's 56th Division is performing very well.

As long as Lashio is captured, it means that the 56th Division will win the battle.

If the Sichuan Army is destroyed again, it will completely prove Takeuchi Hiroshi's incompetence.

"But you are right. This might be a trap. But even if it is a trap, we can still eat them." Watanabe Masao is not a fool. He would not be so stupid as to send a squadron to attack the airport. He gave the order immediately.

"Tell the 56th Search Regiment and the 56th Field Artillery Regiment to speed up their march immediately and reach Tangji Airport. Use heavy artillery to bomb the airport to the ground and leave no one alive. I want to avenge the warriors who sacrificed their lives for the Empire."

"Hi." The operations staff responded.

Watanabe Masao believed that even if this was a trap, it would inevitably become a ruin under the bombardment of heavy artillery.

Besides, he had explained it very clearly. We didn't need the airport anymore and could just bomb it to the ground.

In order to ensure the transportation of heavy artillery, the engineering regiment even sent out a battalion to follow in the battle.

……

At the temporary camp of the 200th Division, Dai Anlan frowned slightly as he looked at the telegram that had been sent.

Because this telegram was not sent by Du Yuming, but by Luo Zhuoying.

"Transferred to the western front? To support Chokbadan?" Dai Anlan was speechless after reading the telegram.

It is now obvious that the Eastern Front is in crisis!

If Tangji is not recaptured, the expeditionary forces on the eastern front will be doomed.

Why is he being sent to the Western Front at this time?
Isn't this a joke?
"Master, what should we do now?" Zheng Tingji asked helplessly after reading the telegram.

"What to do? Follow the order." Although Dai Anlan didn't know the specific situation, he roughly guessed something. He just felt that it was a waste of time to do these things at this time.

But as a soldier, obeying orders is his duty, so he decided to carry out the order.

"But, how about rescuing the western front now? What about the eastern front? If the Japanese army takes Lashio, we won't be able to go back." Zheng Tingji was not a fool. He saw through the Japanese army's layout at a glance.

A big roundabout encirclement!

What does Luo Zhuoying think?

Can't you see this?
"I know, but a soldier's duty is to obey orders." Dai Anlan raised his voice.

"Yes." Zheng Tingji responded helplessly.
