Dong Limao was not very interested in what Xiao Yuhua said later. What made him confused was that his great-grandfather's father died for the woman in front of him. Has the great-grandfather's father ever had that kind of relationship with this woman? This is what Dong Limao cares about the most, because he found that his body could not wait for it. This may not be his physical need, but his great-grandfather's impulse back then. Now he can't even control his own destiny, so naturally it is difficult to control his body, just like he doesn't want to kill people, but has to kill people. The woman he met in Books_Bar () must be the one his great-grandfather had met. Now he is just walking again along the path that Tai Lao once walked.
The big red candles as thick as arms lit up in the room illuminated the entire main hall as if it were daylight.
After Tianlang was full of wine and food, he began to suck the hookah again.
Xiao Yuhua looks even more charming and charming in the candlelight.
After listening to Xiao Yuhua's story about her life experience, Dong Limao realized that Dao Lanxiang had never come back after being taken away by two maids, so he asked, "Yu'er, my brothers and Lanxiang..."
"Staff General Sun and others will entertain the officers and soldiers of the spy company. The female military doctor is named Daolanxiang, right? Someone is also serving you specifically. You don't have to worry about Jiacheng." Xiao Yuhua interrupted Dong Limao with a smile.
The maid took away the leftover food and brought all kinds of fruits.
"Wang'er, please stay with Jiacheng for a while. I think you big men must have a lot of big things to talk about. I'll go and prepare a room for sleeping for Jiacheng." Xiao Yuhua stood up, left Dong Limao with a meaningful smile, and walked out of the main hall.
The maid moved the long and low table aside.
Tianlang took out a map from the next room and spread it on the floor with brocade brown mats: "Brother Dong, I want to ask you for a favor, look here." Tianlang pointed to a location on the map and said.
Dong Limao leaned closer to his head and saw the place where Tianlang's fingers seemed to be a town. The words marked on it were Burmese, and he couldn't understand: "Please say it."
"This place, called Tia, is about fifty kilometers away from our parcel. It is the largest county town nearby. Before the Japanese occupied it, we could go to Tia to buy some daily necessities and other things. However, since the Japanese occupied it, the parcel people have not been so convenient. Moreover, the Japanese restricted the purchase. Now even the general salt in the parcel is short of, and it is urgent to replenish it, so I want to attack this county town and ask Brother Dong to help me formulate a specific combat plan." Tianlang said.
"How many defenders are there?" Dong Limao asked.
"There is a squadron, about 300 Japanese troops, and a Royal Army brigade, with a number of about 500 people. Together, it is less than a thousand people." Tianlang replied.
Dong Limao saw from the map that this county town called Tia is a flat dam, surrounded by mountains on three sides. After entering the mountain, there is a primeval forest. Only a river is located on the south side, and there is a road connected to the mainland of Myanmar.
"Is there a city wall?" Dong Limao asked.
"No." Tianlang replied: "However, facing the forest, there are barbed wire mesh, and every five hundred meters, there are watchtowers, mainly guarded by the Imperial Army."
"How far is this county town from the nearest Japanese military base?" Dong Limao saw from the map that there were some villages and towns around the county town of Tia.
"This place is called Laga, which is a market town. There is a Japanese army squad and an Imperial Army squad. It is controlled by the Japanese army stationed by Tia, which is more than twenty miles away from Tia." Tianlang pointed to a market town and said, "The rest are relatively far away, and there are not many garrisons."
"How many troops do you have to fight?" Dong Limao thought that no matter how large a bandit nest is, it only has a few guns, let alone how powerful the firepower equipment is.
"In addition to those officers and soldiers who stayed in the parody, I have more than 1,200 guns, most of which were discarded by the Expeditionary Force during the escape. Many of them were new weapons made by the United States, as well as eight mountain artillery. However, there were not many shells, but there were more than 30 mortars, and the shells were still abundant..." Tianlang introduced the troops and firepower configuration of the parody to Dong Limao.
Dong Limao became more and more surprised when he heard this. This was even stronger than the equipment of a regular regiment, and even surpassed Zheng Chengkui's anti-Japanese guerrilla column. At least, Zheng Chengkui did not have mountain artillery yet.
Tianlang continued: "Originally, we only planned to use these weapons to defend ourselves. If the Japanese dared to attack the counterfeit, then we could use these weapons to fight back. But I thought that even if we could repel the Japanese attacks once or twice, it would not be possible to stop them from capturing the counterfeit. After all, our ammunition is limited, so I think the best way to protect ourselves is to continue to strengthen our team and constantly seize ammunition supplies from the Japanese army, so that we will not be slaughtered by Japanese wild dogs."
Dong Limao could hear from Tianlang's words that he was a leader who was unwilling to be lonely. Even in such a war environment, he was considering how to strengthen his strength. This child who crawled out of the wolf's den would definitely become a hegemon in the future.
This was just Dong Limao's subjective judgment at that time, and he didn't have the chance to see Tianlang become the overlord of one side.
Later, with the opportunity of anti-Japanese war, Tianlang not only strengthened his team, but after World War II, he was praised by the British and Burmese government and awarded him the title of Royal Jazz. However, he refused the British and Burmese government's recruitment and adaptation, and led his troops of tens of thousands of people to the Golden Triangle region, occupying a large area of territory and becoming the world's generation of poison kings.
Of course, Dong Limao didn't know about these, but on this night, what he said to Tianlang was very inspiring to this wolf boy. It is no exaggeration to describe it as opening the door to the throne of the Poison King.
Dong Limao looked carefully at the map taken out by Tianlang. This is a full-scale detailed map of Myanmar. It was drawn by the British. It was the first time he saw such a comprehensive and detailed map of major cities, towns and mountainous lands in Myanmar after traveling. It was marked clearly wherever there were springs. However, the only regret is that the Wild Man Mountain was blank. Perhaps because the people who drew the map could not complete the original forest, there was only one sentence marked on the map: No man’s land.
"When do you want to attack Tiya County?" Dong Limao asked Tianlang after reading the map.
"The faster the better." Tianlang replied.
"Okay, I can develop an attack plan for you, but not now, I need to further understand the troops and firepower configuration of this county town. The more detailed the better. For this reason, I will send my reconnaissance platoon to let your people lead the way, walk out of the Wild Man Mountain, and survey the surrounding area of Tia County." Dong Limao said: "It's better to set out tomorrow."
"Okay! Brother Dong is really cautious in doing things, I will listen to you." Tianlang agreed readily.
"In the environment where the enemy is strong and we are weak, we can only wait for an opportunity to exchange fire with the enemy. We must never fight head-on positions with them, especially without any logistics supply support. The enemy has land and air advantages and can mobilize a large number of troops and aircraft at any time to launch a devastating blow to us. The reason why the Japanese army has not yet attacked your village is because there is no place like Kawakang on the map." Dong Limao pointed to the uninhabited area on the map and said: "The Japanese think that there is no need to mobilize heavy troops to deploy defense and clear out here. It is not that they are afraid of entering the primeval forest. No matter how terrible the primeval forest is, there is no terrifying metropolis with heavy troops to defend. The Japanese army can keep on going.
Asia sieges cities and destroys countries, and even launches sneak attacks on the United States far away from the Pacific Ocean (the Pearl Harbor incident broke out at that time, and the Pacific War had begun.), which shows that they can drive their troops to any target area worth attacking, so you must not underestimate the Japanese devils. If I was right, after you walk out of the primeval forest to attack the county town of Tia this time, you will attract a large number of Japanese troops to arrive near this area and carry out a carpet-style clearance of you, because at this time, the Japanese army no longer needs to fight a large-scale battle with the Chinese team, and can free up hands to maintain public order in the occupied areas. Eliminating the resistance movement organization is their next strategic idea."
Tianlang listened very seriously to Dong Limao's strategic background. When Dong Limao stopped, he asked: "Brother Dong means that once we start to pierce the hornet's nest, in the days ahead, we will not live here as peacefully as we did in the past, right?"
Dong Limao admired Tianlang's keen sense of smell and nodded and said, "That's right, once you attack the Tia County, it means that you and your cottage will be at risk of being bombed by Japanese aircraft and attacked by ground troops at any time."
"What should we do?" Tianlang asked: "We can't be afraid of revenge from the Japanese army, just sit back and wait for death without doing anything, right?"
Dong Limao could hear the determination of the boy in front of him, and could see that he was not a reckless man like Zheng Chengkui, but he had no experience in fighting in the battle. As long as he had time to fight a few more battles, he would be trained. He didn't know anything at the beginning, and he was afraid of even the gunshots. But now, he also brought more than a hundred people and fought countless victories.
"There is a saying that attack is the best defense, but don't understand it wrong. The attack I mentioned here is not a head-on confrontation with the enemy, but a constant harassment of the enemy, making the enemy unable to figure out its strength and dare not take the initiative to attack easily. It is like dealing with a giant monster. We can use the familiar terrain to attack it inadequately, avoid its edge, and specifically attack its weak position." Dong Limao seemed to be teaching his disciples military knowledge: "The purpose of you taking people to attack the Tia County is to obtain the required supplies, not to occupy the county town. This must be clear. Even if you can take the county town and occupy it for a while, it is impossible to occupy it permanently, because the gains and losses of a city are in this way.
In the environment where all fallen is meaningless, so after you achieve your goal, you must evacuate immediately and prepare to deal with the crazy revenge of the Japanese army. There is a saying in ancient times that you should not put all the eggs in one basket. My suggestion is that your troops should not be concentrated only in Hekang, and let reliable and capable people lead some people to leave, so that they can avoid being surrounded or concentrated attacks by the Japanese devils. You can even pull your troops into the mountains and forests near Tia County, so that the Japanese will be hindered everywhere and dare not go out to attack and encircle Hekang Mountain Village. The purpose of treating this pure land as your rear and staying away from here is to protect the safety of Hekang Mountain Village more effectively."
"Well, it makes sense that the elderly, young, women and children can live here, while our combat troops restrain the enemy on the periphery to achieve the purpose of protecting them. At the same time, those who stay in the village can ensure the supply of food for us and not let us starve to death in the mountains and forests." Tianlang completely understood what Dong Limao expressed.
Dong Limao wanted to help Tianlang well, so he further said:
"In addition, have you noticed that in northern Myanmar, there are few people in the area of northern Myanmar, mainly mountains and forests. You can also expand the scope of the troops' activities and create an illusion for the enemy, thinking that what you encounter is not a small group of troops. Even if the Japanese army mobilizes large troops to northern Myanmar, it will be unable to let go of their hands and feet, and will cause effective blows on you due to the terrain and terrain. Of course, war will inevitably lead to death and injury, which will cause panic to your soldiers. For this reason, you also need to strengthen the education, management and appeasement of the soldiers under your hands, and make full use of the officers of the expeditionary army who stayed by you. They are all professional soldiers with strict training, know how to organize and manage the troops well, and don't let them be assimilated by your people, but want your people to be assimilated by them and become a unit with strict organizational discipline and very strong combat effectiveness."
The more Tianlang listened, he became more and more energetic, and kept asking Dong Limao about the methods of governing the army. Although Dong Limao didn't understand, the things he knew were enough to become Tianlang's mentor. Mountain guerrilla warfare was something he was doing, and it was surging.
When Tianlang heard this, he said, "Brother Dong, if you can stay in the village, I can give you the seat of King Shan to sit."
Dong Limao was stunned. He didn't know whether Tianlang was saying true or not, but he had no interest in what Shan Dawang, nor did he know what Grandpa was thinking when he heard this temptation. Maybe the Grandpa's thoughts were the same as himself, and he didn't care about Shan Dawang at all, but he thought that if the Grandpa followed Tianlang back then, he might have done something big in Myanmar and wouldn't have to die in Songshan in the end. Maybe, just as Xiao Yuhua said, people sometimes find it difficult to escape the palm of their fate.
"Thank you for your kindness and trust, but I don't belong here. You are the real master here. Your troops and residents here need you. I believe that you can lead this special anti-Japanese team." As soon as Dong Limao finished speaking, Xiao Yuhua walked in from the door accompanied by two maids carrying lanterns.
"It's already the middle of the night. Lang'er, it's time to let your Brother Dong go to bed." Xiao Yuhua changed her clothes and her hair was scattered behind her head.
