Chapter 549 The Battle of Myitkyina West Airfield Begins

After reading the telegram, Zhang Junhao looked southeastern, sighed softly, and said, "The Sino-US mixed commando will be five days late, which means that it will be one week at the earliest. General Stilwell also urged us to capture the airport immediately. For us, we have to fight alone with the powerful Japanese army before the Sino-US mixed commando arrives."

After reading the telegram, Colonel Brandon also said angrily: "How can General Sty not listen to us? Why are we urging us to come so early? We will be fine for five days late!"

Zhang Junhao looked at Colonel Brandon and said, "What's the use of complaining? General Stilwell is high and does not understand the truth. I guess General Stilwell ignored the difficulties encountered by the Sino-US mixed commando when they came, and even more ignored the rapid maneuverability of our special melee team. The two neglects led to a week apart when the two teams arrived. But now General Stilwell ordered us to capture the airport as soon as possible, and we must not fail to obey the order. Let's do this! Tomorrow, everyone will prepare, the Chief of Staff will formulate specific combat plans, and take action the morning after tomorrow."

Everyone sat upright and said yes in unison.

Zhang Junhao had already predicted that the Sino-US mixed commando team from Taikri would be late, so the departure time of the Special Melee team was delayed by three days! If Stilwell did not send General Zheng Dongguo to supervise, Zhang Junhao would delay the team's departure by five days.

Zhang Junhao would not complain about General Stilwell in front of the officers above the squad leader. The composition of the special melee team is very different from that of Zhejiang. When he was in Zhejiang, Zhang Junhao was able to fully control it. Now Stilwell arranged Colonel Brandon as the deputy captain, Lieutenant Colonel Zachary as the deputy chief of staff, and the third infantry detachment was completely a soldier of the United States and Britain. If he complained publicly, Zhang Junhao could not guarantee that it would be transmitted to Stilwell's ears.

General Stilwell is under great pressure. He has been preparing for the counterattack in northern Myanmar for so long and has used so much force and resources. So far, he has only attacked Varuban. No one knows when Meng Gong will be captured. The rainy season will come soon, and the future battle will be even more difficult.

The 15th Japanese Army assembled three divisions to attack Impal. The battle between the British and Japanese troops in the mountains of Rakhine has lasted for several months. As long as the British army was defeated in one direction in both directions, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The British army needs to fight against eight Japanese divisions, while the Chinese Expeditionary Force in Kunming and the Sino-US coalition forces set out from Ledo only need to deal with the two Japanese divisions. Can General Stilwell not be under great pressure?

At 8 o'clock in the morning of the third day after Zhang Junhot's melee team arrived in Myitkyina, the First Infantry Detachment and the Commando launched an attack on the Japanese Mid-Taiwanese Airfield. The First Infantry Detachment, led by Lieutenant Colonel Yang Jianhu, quickly surrounded the Japanese barracks, and with the support of 10 mortars of Jack's artillery, attacked the Japanese barracks. The Commando lurked around the airport in squads. After the First Infantry Detachment operated, the sniper fired at the same time, killing all the Japanese troops standing guard in the sentry towers around the airport.

The main force of the Special Melee Team was ambushed in the jungle on both sides of the highway connecting the Western Airport and Myitkyina in the middle of the night. Thirty mortars of Jack's artillery were deployed in the jungle a few hundred meters behind the ambush.

The main ambush of the Special Melee Team is only two thousand meters away from the Japanese trenches, and its courage is beyond what ordinary teams can have.

The special melee team adapted from the Lamba Sutra has participated in many battles against Japan since it landed in Kumenling. It will win every battle. The team has successfully completed the battle and has strong tactical execution. As long as the combat plan is issued, the team can strictly follow the combat plan. Moreover, every officer and soldier has strong self-confidence, thinking that as long as the combat plan is implemented according to the combat plan approved by Zhang Junhao, he will definitely win a great victory.

This ambush position looks like a heart-shaped from the sky, with the tip of the heart in the direction of Myitkyina, and the bottom of the heart is dozens of meters above the highway outside the airport.

In such a special ambush, it is possible to achieve a miracle that has been created without knowing it. It is difficult to win a big battle without winning.

After breakfast, the Myitkyina Japanese Cities Defense Command, Major General Misaka Genzo, had breakfast, and in the reception room, he searched for Colonel Otsuka, the 56th Clan Captain Colonel Yanagawa Akira to study the methods to block the Sino-US mixed commando starting from Taikri.

The Myitkyina City Defense Command now has only less than 2,000 troops. The Sino-US mixed commando is composed of two regiments of the Mai Detachment, the British Special Forces, the Chinese Army stationed in India and other teams, with its strength several times that of the Myitkyina Japanese Army. The Myitkyina Japanese army only owns one field gun, while the Sino-US mixed commando has a company of mountain guns.

General Stilwell thought the raid was completely exposed to the Myitkyina Japanese City Defense Command.

Major General Suicide and others are not fools. The mixed commando of China and the United States attacked all the way, and of course the target was Myitkyina.

The 114th Regiment, which was severely damaged by Zhang Junhot's melee team in the previous stage, has received replenishment of troops from other divisions, and has incorporated non-combat personnel into combat units, which has restored the three-tier system to the corps. The key point is that the eliminated 1st Battalion has been resurrected. Although the main force is not in Myitkyina, the 56th Regiment from the 56th Division has been there.

Major General Sui Shangshang Yuanzang had high hopes for the search of the 56th Regiment and regarded the wing as an emergency maneuver action team. The wing headquarters had 29 people and 11 horses. The horse squadron was 141 and 127 horses. The car squadron was 168, the armored vehicle squadron was 70, and the armored vehicles were 12. There were 408 people and 138 horses.

After searching for the 56th Regiment, it has not participated in the combat operation.

Major General Shui Guinzang called Colonel Hiroshi Otsuka so early, and Colonel Akira Yanagawa, the captain of the 56th Regiment, to study the matter of blocking the Sino-US mixed commando. The purpose was to make Colonel Akira Yanagawa, the captain of the 56th Regiment, prepare early. Major General Shui Guinzang wanted to wait for the Sino-US mixed commando to send the gang to raid the Sino-US mixed commando before the arrival of Myitkyina. If the plan can be implemented successfully, the Sino-US mixed commando would inevitably suffer a heavy blow. The 56th Regiment, the combat effectiveness of the 56th Regiment, has been the vanguard of the 56th Division in previous battles. It has been invincible and invincible. It can even be described as invincible.

This team was adapted by Colonel Yanagawa Akira and led the corps to participate in almost all major battles of the 56th Division. For the Japanese army, it made great achievements.

Colonel Akira Yanagawa had a very strong self-confidence, and his accumulated military achievements made him look down on everything. He thought that as long as he personally led the 56th Regiment to fight, he would definitely be able to eliminate the enemy.

After Major General Sui Shangshang Yuanzang talked about the situation with concern, Colonel Akira Yanagawa laughed wildly and said, "General, the entire Myitkyina region has been built into a fortress. I think the Sino-US and British Allied Forces that rushed from Taikri came to die."

Major General Sushang Yuanzang said: "Now the Sino-US coalition forces are attacking the Menggong Valley. The commander of the 18th Division has gone through many difficulties and dangers from the direction of Mengguan. He finally turned to Menggong. He was organizing the 56th Regiment to fight the attack of the Sino-US coalition forces in Menggong. Last night, we sent each other telegrams to communicate ideas. The goal of our defense in both places is to drag time to the rainy season. Because the blows suffered in Mengguan and the north of our 18th Division in the previous stage were too heavy. We ignored the combat effectiveness of Zhang Junhot's melee team and underestimated the enemy in Mengguan's military deployment. The consequences of underestimating the enemy are extremely serious. The defeat of the Daro Valley Battle, Lord

It is attributed to the contempt of Zhang Junhot melee team's combat effectiveness. The 56th Regiment built Mengguan into a fortress and thought it could stop Zhang Junhot melee team. Who would have thought that Zhang Junhot melee team could break through quickly? Moreover, when the 22nd Cavalry Brigade attacked Zhang Junhot melee team, it suffered another blow from Zhang Junhot melee team's non-conventional blow and suffered the entire army's defeat. Chief of Staff Major General Seo, the captain of the corps and the deputy captain of the corps all fought, and thousands of loyal and brave imperial troops were broken in the battle. Now, Zhang Junhot melee team has disappeared. Will Zhang Junhao lead the special melee team to climb over Kumen Ridge and come to our area? Or have he sneaked into the Menggong Valley?"

Colonel Otsuka Hiroshi was shocked and said, "Zhang Junhot's melee team is elusive and will appear in unexpected places like ghosts."

Major General Sushang Yuanzang nodded and said, "So the 56th Regiment cannot be easily dispatched. If Zhang Junhao suddenly rushes to Myitkyina, we must use the 56th Regiment as a trump card to deal with Zhang Junhot melee team. I think other teams must maintain their composure and still defend in various places."

Colonel Akira Yanagawa laughed and said, "Okay! I'm guarding in Myitkyina City. Once I learn about the information of Zhang Junhao's melee team, or if Zhang Junhao dares to come to Myitkyina, I will immediately lead the Search 56th team to fight. I promise to annihilate all Zhang Junhao and his team."

Major General Susan Genzo looked at Colonel Yanagawa Akira and nodded, "The 114th Regiment was specifically responsible for the blocking of the attack on the Mixed Commando of Myitkyina from Taikri. Your headquarters will stay in Myitkyina city, and use static to prevent the arrival of Zhang Junhot melee team. Once the Zhang Junhot melee team comes to Myitkyina, your headquarters will attack immediately. Be sure to launch a surprise attack on it with lightning speed, to severely destroy its strength and confidence, lay the foundation for eliminating it in the later stage."

Just then, the office phone rang.

Major General Sushang Shangshang Yuanzang was stunned for a moment, and quickly got up and walked towards the office.

Major General Suichen stood up straight and carried the microphone.

The loud shout of the commander of the garrison team at the West Airport came from the microphone: "God General, the airport was suddenly attacked by unknown teams, and our barracks are now surrounded. Please reinforcements!"

Major General Sui Shangshang was so scared that he asked loudly: "How many troops do the enemy have and what weapons are they using?"
