"So that's how it is!" When Masazo, a riverside, heard the reconnaissance plane discovering the enemy fleet on the Irrawaddy River, he said hatefully: "The Chinese are too cunning, they actually think of interspersing along the Irrawaddy River!"

After pausing, he asked the staff officer beside him: "Yanyejun, where is the Chinese fleet now?"

"From the location of the last report of the reconnaissance plane..." The staff then pointed out a location on the map and said: "The Chinese fleet should be here now. If they are not stopped, they will enter the Dundi Canal in more than ten hours!"

"Bastard!" Kawabian Masazo couldn't help but punched the table.

For more than ten hours, there was no time to organize defense in such a short time. The reason was that the Second Division of the troops stationed in Yangon was basically aired by him. The four infantry regiments either went to the southern coastline to defend the British army. The possible landing of the British army or headed to the Tonggu direction to deal with the Chinese. At this time, the Japanese army in Yangon had only the front-level troops. If this unit was transferred from Yangon, Yangon would become an empty city.

"Your Excellency General!" reminded the staff officer: "The artillery regiment of the 24th Mixed Brigade is still downstream, so they can be blocked!"

Hebashi nodded and then issued a series of orders.

The first order was: the 24th Mixed Brigade Artillery Corps immediately arrived near the banks of the Irrawaddy River and stopped the Chinese fleet from moving south at all costs.

The second half of this order is actually empty talk. Everyone knows that the artillery regiment of the Mixed Brigade cannot block the Chinese fleet. This is not only a problem of insufficient quality of the Mixed Brigade, but also hastily faced several times that of its own and is likely to face the problem of the Chinese military's air strength.

The second order is: the 29th and 30th United will return to Yangon immediately.

This order is of course correct. The 29th and 30th Regiments were sent by Zheng San from Hebian to prepare to defend the Chinese army south in Myanmar. Since the Chinese army did not pass south along the highway, they lost their original strategic significance and of course they had to return to Yangon to defend.

But sometimes it is easy to release the troops and it is difficult to take them back.

First of all, there is a communication problem. In the marching, the 29th and the 30th Wing did not turn on the radio station on the road, so unless the next radio contact time is reached, the command will not be transmitted to the 29th and 30th Wings.

But Kawabian Masato also had his own way. Then send a reconnaissance plane to chase the 29th and 30th Regiments, and after catching up, they would use radio contact to issue orders.

However, it is very coincidental that... Before the reconnaissance plane caught up with the 29th, the 30th Wing was shot down by the fighter plane sent by the Americans to be responsible for patrol.

These fighter jets were sent by Stilwell to escort the fleet. It was nothing before the fleet was not discovered by the Japanese army. But once discovered by the Japanese army... it means that it is very likely to be hit by the Japanese air force, so the cover of air force is indispensable.

In desperation, the Hebian Zhengsan had no choice but to choose a local method and sent a correspondent to drive the side three rounds to chase the 29th and 30th Regiments, but these correspondents were ambushed by Chindite troops who had already been ambushed by the roadside and failed to convey the order.

Finally, after a few hours, I waited for the contact point. Only an order made the 29th and 30th United rushed back to Yangon as quickly as possible.

Major General Matsuyama, who was commanding the 29th and 30th Regiment, was confused when he heard this order. He had just sent him out last night and was marching to the north of Tonggu to block the Chinese army. Why are you going back to Yangon now? Aren’t the people who are going back and forth going back and forth?!

But Matsuyama Tsuji didn't say much, and responded and ordered the troops to turn around.

Not long after the troops turned around, they heard a loud "boom" in front of them. Matsuyama Tsuji, who was sitting in the jeep, knew that something was wrong.

Sure enough, not long after, I heard the correspondents running up to report: "Major General, the Burmese people have blown up the road bridge!"

"It's Burmese again!" Matsuyama Motoji couldn't help but gritted his teeth in hatred.

The current situation is completely different from the first Myanmar Battle. During the first Myanmar Battle, the Burmese people gave all their help to the Japanese. But now the Burmese people are adding trouble to the Japanese army. Although these troubles are not big, it still makes the Japanese army very troubled when they do this at a critical moment.

But this time the Japanese army made a mistake. It was not the Burmese people who blew up the highway bridge, but a team of the Chindit troops... Their mission was to follow the Japanese army all the way and prepare to blow up the bridge and break the road behind them. Therefore, there were far more than this blown up highway bridges.

"Order the engineers to repair the bridge immediately!" Matsuyama Toshiji ordered.

"yes!"

Matsuyama Tomiji thought it would take only a while to wait, and the engineering troops would soon resume traffic.

But he obviously underestimated the attack of the Sino-US coalition forces again.

Soon, the "rumble" sound of the plane motor came faintly in the air.

At first, Matsuyama Motoji and all the Japanese didn't care. Because their location was southern Myanmar, there was basically no sign of American planes here, so they naturally thought it was the Japanese army's own plane when they heard the sound of the plane motor.

But after thinking about it, Matsuyama Tsuji felt something was wrong. Most of the Japanese planes were sent to Impal to fight. Yangon did have some planes left, but that was also a preparation for defending the British landing. It was unlikely that they would fly from north to south...

So Matsuyama Toshiji ordered loudly: "Secret, this is the enemy's plane!"

But everything was too late. With the whistling of bombs, aviation bombs fell from the sky like laying eggs. Then they landed on the highway with great accuracy and blew up the Japanese tanks, armored vehicles and cars into pieces. Of course, as these equipment flew into the sky, there were also groups of Japanese soldiers.

Several fighter jets dived down, and shot out bullets with blue smoke in a harsh whistle, instantly knocking down the Japanese troops running below for cover.

It was not over after a dive, and the fighter turned around and then another dive... The target of this dive was several Japanese tanks that were fleeing on the highway. How could the thin armor of the Japanese tanks block the 12.7mm caliber machine gun on the P40 fighter. After a crisp "ding" sound, it was quickly blown out and black smoke was raised, and then a fire ignited.

...

After a long time, the US military aircraft disappeared over the Japanese army with satisfaction. What was left to the Japanese army were corpses and various equipment that were tilted on the roadside with fire.

Seeing all this, Matsuyama Tsuji felt crying and tears. His mechanized infantry corps were beaten into the infantry corps in just a blink of an eye.
