Chapter 920 Let them come up, this is to let them help the enemy
After a moment's silence, Takeuchi Hiroshi said, "General, I believe the 4th Division should be deployed to the front lines."
Who?
Terauchi Hisaichi turned his head and looked at Takeuchi Hiroshi for a while before saying, "Are you worried that they won't be able to sell all our supplies?"
To be honest, he still doesn't know where to place the 4th Division. No matter where it is placed, it will be inappropriate.
"General, any division mobilized to deal with surveillance will not make them take it lightly, but this enemy division can. The speed of their attack and retreat in the Xuzhou and Xi'an battlefields was witnessed by all in the mountain city. Moreover, this division should have had a close relationship with the independent brigade in the past. Rather than not knowing where to place them, it is better to put them on the front line. As for supplies, as long as we control them properly, how much can they sell?"
At this point, Takeuchi Hiroshi added, "We can't let them transport the supplies."
"I'm not crazy enough to ask them to transport supplies." Terauchi Hisaichi said after thinking for a moment, "Your suggestion is indeed good, but the enemy is the 5th Army. This..."
"General, send the 4th Division up. They will make adjustments."
"I'm back." Xiao Ya, who was chatting and laughing with Chao Xiang Xiuling, Wang Yunluo and others in the courtyard, saw Zhou Weiguo and his third sister entering the command center in casual clothes. She stood up and signaled Zhang Xiufang to arrange meals. She came up to Zhou Weiguo and asked Xiao Yingyin.
"Well, I'm back. I gained a lot this time." Zhou Weiguo looked at the people in front of him, then looked at Xiuling beside Xiao Ya; "I'm going to find your father."
Hahaha……
Zhao Shoutian laughed out loud beside him. Zhou Weiguo asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why are you laughing so happily?"
"Second Master, the Second Madam has long known that you would go to find his father."
"Oh." Zhou Weiguo looked at Chaoxiang Xiuling, then at Xiao Ya. Seeing him nod, he smiled and said, "That bastard Okamura Neiji hid from this incident and went to Canada. I can only look for a new partner, and Chaoxiang is the most suitable one."
At this point, he looked at Zhang Guifang who was busy not far away; "Guifang, stop busying yourself, I still have to go to the command center to report the situation."
Mandalay Foreign Aid Operations Command.
Zhou Weiguo, led by Adjutant Li, came to Commander Bai's office.
"Commander, I'm back." Zhou Weiguo said as he came to the map.
Commander Bai turned his head to look at him and nodded. "I'm glad you're back. How's everything going?"
"They are already considering this plan, but they just don't know when to take action."
"They're already taking action." Chief of Staff Luo pulled out a telegram and handed it to Zhou Weiguo. "The 11th Army and the North China Front Army are actively transporting supplies. In addition, the puppet regime has also concentrated 200,000 troops."
"They must have a plan to divert attention, but..."
"It's just a matter of fact, no one knows whether they will switch from diversionary tactics to the main attack." Commander Bai took over Chief of Staff Luo's words and turned his attention to the interior. "To deal with this, we have transferred a lot of elite troops and air power. However, the Japanese troops in the interior have not been reduced in number. They are drawing on the Kwantung Army and other forces."
"Sir, from a long-term perspective, it's unlikely they'll launch a major attack. The longer the battle line, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. Because the terrain gets higher the further west we go, their mechanized forces and transportation will be limited by us. Furthermore, a few months ago, we accepted the advice of the cave forces and formed a guerrilla zone to attack their transportation lines. I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to cope with such a situation."
At this point, Zhou Weiguo pointed to South Asia. "The Burmese battlefield is different from South Asia. These two areas have always been suppressed by the British. They have no mass support. If you give them some benefits, they will definitely follow the Japanese army. It's difficult to attack us, but it's very easy to attack them."
"You have a point." Commander Bai nodded and motioned Zhou Weiguo to sit down. Just as he was about to ask about what happened, Deng Yaoxian came in and handed a telegram to Xiao Zhuge. "Commander, this is the news we just received."
"Fourth brother." Zhou Weiguo lowered his voice after greeting Deng Yaoxian. "What's the matter that you would bother your fourth brother to come here in person?"
"The 4th Division, which had been resting in south-central Myanmar, suddenly advanced northward at full speed this morning."
"What?" Zhou Weiguo looked at Xiao Zhuge in shock. Seeing him nod, Zhou Weiguo sighed. "Is Terauchi Juichi crazy? He dares to let such a large force advance northward."
Are you trying to make the Osaka Division assist the enemy?
"He's not crazy. That's why we need to think about his purpose in doing this."
Chief of Staff Luo laughed.
"Could this be a concession or a form of surveillance? The root of all this is related to Brother Zhou's actions this time. They want to use this division to send us a signal."
"That's very possible, if that's the case." Little Zhuge came to the map and looked at it for a long time before turning to Zhou Weiguo and saying, "Weiguo, have your troops finished resting?"
"I don't know about this, but I think the rest is complete."
"Alright," Little Zhuge said, his hands behind his back. "You've dealt with the 4th Division many times, and Ono once served there, too. You know them best, so I'm switching positions with the 5th Army."
"Understood." Zhou Weiguo stood up and said, "I'll go back and prepare."
The emergency assembly call sounded on the outskirts of Mandalay.
Xiao Ye, who was registering supplies, hummed and asked Chen Ning beside him, "Emergency assembly, what happened?"
He threw the notebook to Chen Ning and drove to the command center alone. He happened to see Jinxiu arranging people to remove the telephone lines.
"Jinxiu, what's going on? Why do we need an emergency meeting? Also, where are we going?"
Jinxiu came up to him and said, "The brigade commander has received an order that our independent brigade will exchange positions with the 5th Army."
Switch... switch defense?
Ono twitched his lips, signaling her to go about her business. He then went to the headquarters. Just then, he saw Zhou Weiguo coming out. He grabbed Zhou Weiguo and asked, "We're switching positions with the 5th Army. What's going on? Is Takeuchi Hiroshi coming?"
"No." Zhou Weiguo added after leaning against the door; "But the Japanese army did come up."
"Our troops haven't finished their rest yet, and the three-three combat teams are still in the running-in stage. If we go up now, we'll probably be giving away our military achievements to the Japanese. I oppose switching positions with the 5th Army at this time."
