Chapter 1685 Salween River
Ten days have passed in a blink of an eye.
After paying a heavy price, the main force of the Japanese 25th Army finally arrived in Maulhammé.
The commander of the 18th Division, Ryo Mudaguchi, also brought Chief of Staff, Otsuki Kenji to welcome his immediate superior, Ishihara Kanir.
However, when I saw Ishihara Kanir, Mudaguchi was also surprised.
But Ishihara Kan's face turned blue, her eyes were deep, and she was breathing when she walked.
"Your Excellency Commander?" Muguda Rik also said in disbelief, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I accidentally ate my stomach." Ishihara smiled and said.
The Huaxiong of Gu Di next to him stammered. Just as he was about to explain the whole story, Ishihara Kaner immediately glared at him with a stern look, and the Huaxiong of Gu Di immediately did not dare to say anything.
Ishihara Kanir was actually just talking lightly.
The truth of the matter is much more serious than he said.
In fact, Ishihara Kanir was not eating a bad stomach, but was food poisoning!
Moreover, it was the Chinese special forces Qiao Zhuang who became a Japanese soldier and sneaked into the headquarters of Ishihara Kanir at night, poisoned the rice balls made by the kitchen squad, and almost brought the headquarters to a pot.
Ishihara Kaner was lucky. Because she was not feeling well, she only ate half a rice ball, so she escaped.
However, his adjutant, as well as several staff officers of the headquarters and dozens of guards were all poisoned. Chief of Staff Gu Di Huaxiong was not in the headquarters at that time, and he also escaped by chance.
However, this was not a glorious thing after all, so Ishihara Kaner deliberately concealed it.
Ishihara Kanir said again: "Mutaguchi, the Navy has landing crafts. Has the barges provided by the Thai army and the fishing boats recruited along the way arrived in Maudan?"
"Hayi." Mutaguchi Ryo also paused and replied, "It's all in place."
"Yo Xi." Ishihara Kaner breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then asked, "What attacks have been done by the Chinese army on the west bank of the Salwen River these days?"
"No." Mudaguchi Ryoshi also shook his head and said, "The Chinese army is very peaceful and has no abnormal movement."
"Is that so? This doesn't look like Zhong Yi's style." Ishihara Kaner frowned after hearing this.
After pausing, Ishihara Kaner said again: "Zhong Yi always likes to win surprises in wars. The Battle of Nanjing, Wuhan and the Three Battles of Zhejiang and Fujian are all like this. How come he became so peaceful this time?"
Mutaguchi Ren said unfaithfully: "Commander, no matter how cunning Zhong Yi is, his troops must be able to pass the Salwen River. Although it is winter now, due to the recent heavy rains in Myanmar, the water level of the Salwen River has risen a lot. With such a wide river surface, there are not enough ships and large troops that cannot pass."
"Anyway, we must be careful." Ishihara nodded and continued, "Then start crossing the river."
"Hayi." Mudaguchi Ren also paused his head suddenly, turned around and said to Ogotsuki Kentori, "Order, start crossing the river."
...
Two Chinese special forces are quietly lurking in a primitive jungle on the west bank of the Salwin River.
These two Chinese special forces, one is Yang Feng, and the other is sniper Shan Wazi.
"What a pity." Shanwazi put down the telescope and said regretfully, "The distance is far. If I can get closer to one to two kilometers, I will be confident of killing those senior Japanese generals."
"Stop blowing." Yang Feng said angrily, "It's across a river."
The Salwen River is separated by Yang Feng and the Japanese, which is more than ten kilometers wide.
Shanwazi smiled and continued, "Captain, why are the Japanese still just passing by the river?"
"It should be soon." Yang Feng said thoughtfully, "If I guess correctly, the senior Japanese general on the other side should be Ishihara Kaner, the commander of the 25th Army of the Japanese Army."
"Is Ishihara Kaner?" Yamabako's eyes lit up and she whispered, "Captain, why don't I secretly go over and hide in the water plants on the other side and have a shot of him?"
"This is a delusion." Yang Feng said coldly, "I really think the Japanese are vegetarians?"
Shanwazi looked at the Japanese sentry that was inserted into the east bank of the Salwin River like a javelin, and stopped saying anything more.
Perhaps it was because the special forces suffered too much loss on the way north, so the Japanese are now very vigilant. This can be seen from the Japanese sentry on the east bank of the Salwin River.
While the two of them were talking, the other side of the river suddenly became lively.
Amid the roar of the motors, one landing craft after another, and the barges began to spit out black smoke.
Immediately afterwards, a row of landing crafts and barges dragged fishing boats loaded with Japanese infantry and equipment and materials, and drove out of the port in a mighty manner and headed straight for the Madaban Port on the west coast.
Almost at the same time, the Japanese warships that were originally roaming outside the river entrance also drove in.
The next moment, more than a dozen Japanese warships' naval guns were aimed at Madaban Port on the west coast and opened fire fiercely.
In an instant, rows of shells landed in Madaban Port on the west bank of the Salwin River and exploded violently.
In less than a moment, the entire Madaban Port was shrouded in smoke from the explosion. In the smoke, dark red flames still burst out suddenly and rolled around from time to time.
"Fuck!" Shanwazi said astonished, "The firepower of the Japanese Navy is so fierce."
"What is this?" Yang Feng said disdainfully, "When I was in the Kingsoft Guard, the artillery fire of the Japanese Navy was really powerful. The scene in front of me was nothing compared to that of the Kingsoft Guard back then."
Speaking of this, Yang Feng continued, "But then, the Jinshanwei compared with the Baoshan, Lion Forest and Wusongkou, it was nothing. It was really a pity when the Battle of Songhu that year."
"I have heard of it, too." Shanwazi said, "The Battle of Songhu was not actually defeated by the Japanese Army, but by the Japanese Navy's naval guns, right?"
"I won't talk about this." Yang Feng said, "Shanwazi, hurry up and send a telegram to the chief department, saying that the main force of the 25th Army of the Japanese army has begun to cross the river."
"Yes!" Shanwazi agreed, and then he started to retreat with his elbows.
However, Yang Feng did not leave the place, but raised his telescope again and locked his vision to the motorbancheng in the distance.
At this time, the naval guns of the Japanese warship had already begun to be extended and fired, and the artillery fire gradually turned to the Madaban city, but the railway station in the north of the city was not bombarded.
A disdainful sneer immediately appeared at the corner of Yang Feng's mouth.
The Japanese devils' abacus was really good at slapping the port but not the train station. Are they planning to take the train to Xidang? There is really a railway connection between Madaban City and Xidang City.
It’s just a pity that the group had already expected this.
So the railway between the two places was blown up early.
