    Chapter 1,079 The confused head of state

    What Chu Tian said in the telegram, the small British and Burmese troops were the guides sent by Alexander to Savage Mountain to lead the way for the Shouyi troops in the temple. Tang Qiuli vaguely guessed these small British and Burmese troops.  The purpose of entering Savage Mountain was a ridiculous feeling in my heart. Could it be that Alexander was an idiot or blind?

    The Japanese are ready to move in Southeast Asia, and their intentions are very obvious, but Alexander is still wishful thinking to please the Japanese. If he successfully brings the remaining Japanese troops of Juichi Terauchi out of the Savage Mountains to Myitkyina in northern Myanmar, these Japanese soldiers will not  What kind of allies, but a group of hungry wolves, such people in the world?

    Even with Tang Qiuli's two lifetime experiences, he could not understand the British mind. Therefore, he emphasized in his order to Chu Tian that "the attacking column must destroy all small groups of British and Burmese troops that entered Savage Mountain."  , Do not let them have any contact with the Japanese army, and report the situation to the division commander immediately after the battle." Tang Qiuli also wanted to know the true purpose of the British and Burmese troops.

    A few days later, Chutian reported the situation, "The division commander said that we attacked the troops of the column and entered the edge area of ??Savage Mountain in northern Burma. We conducted more than ten operations and annihilated a total of 18 British-Burmese mixed forces, about 500  According to the prisoners' accounts, these small groups of armed forces entered the Savage Mountains on Alexander's order to search for Japanese troops and were responsible for taking the remaining Japanese troops out of the Savage Mountains. However, due to the complex terrain of the Savage Mountains, they could not all be eliminated.  The target, about two or three small mixed units of the British and Burmese troops, has been lost and the troops are now searching.¡±

    Tang Qiuli understood why Alexander transferred all his elite troops to the area close to the Chinese border, but he still used the same trick, letting the Japanese be free thugs, and fighting him first. Both sides would suffer, and the British would take the opportunity to clean up the mess.  , completely drive out the troops that entered Southeast Asia.

    It's still the same old story. The British don't do anything, they take advantage of everything, and they treat others as fools. Then teach the British a lesson, let the Japanese give them a loud slap, and let the British remember a little longer, and let the Japanese  Alexander is not the only one who knows how to be a thug. He issued a new order to Chu Tian, ??"Chu Tian, ??the main combat mission of the attack column in the next stage is to eliminate a large number of Japanese troops who are capable of entering northern Burma.  Control within the range of attack capabilities, and if necessary, mobilize all special operations detachments into Savage Mountain."

    Tang Qiuli's order was tantamount to posing a difficult problem for Chu Tian. What does it mean to be within the range of attack capabilities? Based on Chu Tian's understanding of the British army, the combat effectiveness of a Japanese regiment can definitely defeat a British brigade, and  It would be appropriate to let go of as many little devils as they could beat them all over the ground. Chu Tian was in such a dilemma that he did not dare to send a telegram again to inquire about the division commander's true intentions.

    There was no other way. Chu Tian found another way and sent a telegram to Chief of Staff Chang Feng. Chang Feng knew what Chu Tian meant and did not inform Tang Qiuli. After careful calculations, together with his staff, they considered that the Japanese army was in Savage Mountain.  consumption, and the actual strength of the British army in northern Myanmar, we can get a rough figure, about 40,000 to 45,000 people. Such a scale of Japanese troops can cause a storm in northern Myanmar. However,  It is absolutely impossible to eliminate the British army. It is still capable of beating the British to hide their heads and run away.

    Chu Tian felt confident. The attacking column that had taken the initiative on the Savage Mountain battlefield could freely decide the scale and method of the battle. It would not have any problem to kill the little Japanese who were at their wits' end. At the same time, Chu Tian couldn't help but shudder. The division commander was  The order was to declare the end of Juichi Terauchi and give the Japanese army the final verdict.

    There are more than 200,000 little Japs who entered Yeren Mountain. After such a long period of consumption and losses, there are still 150,000 or 60,000 people. In other words, according to the estimate of Chief of Staff Chang Feng, there are still 100 more people buried in Yeren Mountain.  The corpses of tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers were everywhere. They would soon turn into piles of bones. It was shocking. The division commander was so cruel that Chu Tian secretly smacked his lips.

    In fact, if Tang Qiuli was not angry at Alexander's ignorance and stupidity, none of Terauchi Juichi and his more than 200,000 Japanese soldiers would have thought of walking out of Savage Mountain alive and letting the British taste the pain of shooting themselves in the foot.  The taste is so long-lasting that the remaining Japanese troops are a disaster for the British troops in northern Burma. They are not enough to eat in front of the Japanese army.  .

    One night in late March, Tang Qiuli and Mei Xue, who was recovering from an injury in Shanghai, talked on the phone. Tang Qiuli was in a very happy mood. Mei Xue's injury healed at an optimistic speed, and she was able to heal with the help of the nurse.  Activities in the ward, but the girl was very reluctant to be alone in Shanghai. She clamored to return to Tengchong and Tang Qiuli as soon as she recovered from her injury.

    Tang Qiuli felt Mei Xue's attachment to him deeply. Moreover, after Mei Xue blocked the shot for him, Tang Qiuli seemed to have a strange feeling deep in his heart.? This feeling was something he had never felt before. He was immersed in the wonderful state and couldn't help but think of the long letter he had read from Mei Ting in Dingbian two days ago.

    In the blink of an eye, I haven¡¯t seen Mei Ting for several months. Now, Mei Ting is in the state of giving birth. Although the medical facilities in Dingbian are the best in the country, her parents, father-in-law, and mother-in-law are all staying with Mei Ting.  , for the first child of the Tang and Mei families, the four old people were excited and looked forward to it, and they cared for Mei Ting like a treasure.

    Mei Ting's letter was full of good news, filled with a sense of pride that she was going to be a mother, and she also told him not to miss her, everything was fine, but Tang Qiuli could still see that there was something hidden between those sentences.  The constant melancholy and loss, the love of parents and in-laws cannot replace the care and care of her husband.

    At this moment, he should be by Mei Ting's side, looking forward to the birth of his first child together. However, war is about to break out in Southeast Asia, how can he escape?  Mei Xue's charming voice on the phone, the hint of disappointment in Mei Ting's letter, the two wives' different expressions, but they were all deeply in love, entangled and intertwined in Tang Qiuli's heart. Even he himself couldn't tell what it was.  What a feeling.

    The night was vast, Tang Qiuli raised his head and looked south. The night wind of early spring in western Yunnan blew from the South Pacific, carrying a faint and almost inaudible saltiness, but he could clearly smell the smell of gunpowder smoke. "The war is about to begin."  Ah!" Tang Qiuli said as if to himself, exhaling the complicated emotions in his chest.

    Chen Feng, the director of the communications department, hurried over, "Commander, an urgent telegram from Germany." Tang Qiuli took the telegram. Bai Luoyu's beautiful and neat handwriting was pleasing to the eye. However, the content of the telegram,  But Tang Qiuli was very surprised. This was Battelle's telegram from the Dunkirk front line.

    "Brother Qiu Li, after the German army bypassed the Maginot Line, it advanced very quickly in France. Hundreds of thousands of British and French allied forces were forced to retreat to Dunkirk, the port at the junction of northern France and the Netherlands. I commanded  The "Lightning" Armored Assault Division, as the vanguard of Guderian's First Army, has reached the rear defense line of the British and French forces in Dunkirk, and the battle is fierce. "

    "According to the current development trend of the war situation, it is an inevitable result that the British and French allied forces will be surrounded and annihilated by the German forces in Dunkirk. The Army Group has already issued an order to attack. However, what is strange is that the order from the German High Command  , but the attack was immediately stopped. The reason given was that the water network and swamp areas near Dunkirk were not conducive to armored operations. In order to avoid losses, the ground troops immediately stopped the attack and the German Air Force attacked Dunkirk instead.  , according to Guderian, the order came from Hitler, the head of state of Germany.¡±

    "Brother Qiu Li, based on my observation and judgment on the battlefield, this order is very strange. It will lose the perfect opportunity to completely annihilate the British and French coalition forces, the last main force on the European continent. The German army has surrounded the British and French coalition forces from three sides. The British and French coalition forces have begun  I can¡¯t guess the intention of the German command in organizing the operation to cross the English Channel and evacuate to the British mainland, so I will report the situation and ask Brother Qiu Li to make a judgment, brother Barter.¡±

    This is a long telegram. On the battlefield where bullets are flying, Battelle still has time to send the telegram. This shows that the German army has completely taken the initiative on the battlefield. As long as it makes the final blow, the British and French  Apart from the fate of being killed, the only other option for people is to jump into the English Channel.

    Tang Qiuli almost blurted out, "Stupid and stupid, Hitler is letting the tiger return to the mountain." Do you still need to judge?  Although the Dunkirk retreat of the British and French forces was several months earlier than recorded in history, the current situation of the European battlefield is exactly the same as recorded in history. The German offensive was overwhelming and the British and French forces were facing a desperate situation.

    At this critical moment, Hitler did not know what kind of evil he had committed. He actually ordered the German army to stop the attack, giving the British and French allied forces a once-in-a-lifetime breathing opportunity. Within a few days, within the range of German artillery fire, he used various ships to  More than 400,000 British and French soldiers were withdrawn to the British Isles under the eyes of the Germans. Later, this part of the British and French troops became the backbone of the counterattack on the European continent.

    According to unofficial records, the fundamental reason that prompted Hitler to make this fatal mistake was Sherman, the commander-in-chief of the German Air Force who was as stupid as a pig, eager to show off, but ambitious.  Goering's request. Goering did not want all the German victory and halo in the European battlefield to be snatched away by the army. Seeing that the British and French coalition forces had become a turtle in the urn, he proposed to Hitler that the Luftwaffe alone complete the final attack on the British and French coalition forces.

    Hitler was dazzled by the impending victory, and in order to save the face of his old friend and close brother, he actually agreed to this ridiculous request. As a result, the Dunkirk area was covered with thick clouds and fog for several days, and German aircraft  Unable to take off at all, the British and French soldiers hurriedlyTo leave, G?ring fired a blank cannon, but this ruined the future and destiny of the Third Reich.

    However, now that Tang Qiuli is here, there will be a different ending. More than 400,000 British and French soldiers will not escape the fate of being annihilated from Dunkirk in any case. Without him, the Germans will not be able to survive.  They won a complete victory in the European battlefield and became a powerful enemy of the Soviet Union.
