    The telegram from the Attendant's Office was quickly sent to Rangoon.

    After reading the telegram, Zhong Yi turned to Wang Geng and asked, "Brother Shouqing, what do you think?"

    Wang Geng said: "As far as I know, the Japanese have not made any big moves on the domestic battlefield. The strength of the Japanese Thirteenth Army on the front of the Zhejiang and Fujian battlefields has even been weakened."

    Stilwell said: "Chang Kaishen, is he lying?"

    Wang Geng smiled: "General Stilwell, this is not what I said."

    Stilwell said: "King, isn't what I said not the truth?"

    Wang Geng said to Zhong Yi again: "Chief, how should we deal with the materials?"

    "How to deal with it?" Zhong Yi said, "You call back to the attendant's office immediately and tell them that this batch of supplies has been transported to the front line of Xidang River and distributed to the front group armies, and they cannot be recovered."

    "Yes." Wang Geng nodded and asked someone to send a telegram to Chongqing.

    Zhong Yi asked another staff officer: "Counsel Wang, where are the officers and soldiers of the 1st Armored Regiment of the 200th Division?"

    The 200th Division is the first truly mechanized heavy division in the national army. It has five regiments and a total strength of more than 20,000 people. It has the first division commander Du Yuming and the first chief of staff Qiu Qingquan.

    When the 200th Division was first formed, Zhong Yi was still training at the Luojiashan Officer Training Corps in Wuhan.

    Zhong Yi has no friendship with Du Yuming, but he has a life-long friendship with Qiu Qingquan.

    The 200th Division is an old unit that Qiu Qingquan once stayed in, and the relationship is very deep.

    Therefore, after receiving all the equipment of the 1st Armored Brigade from the British-Burmese Army, Zhong Yi immediately contacted Dai Anlan, the new commander of the 200th Division, through Qiu Qingquan's relationship.

    The 200th Division was undergoing training in Quanzhou, Guangxi.

    After receiving the telegram from Zhong Yi, Dai Anlan transferred all the officers and soldiers of the 1st Armored Regiment over without saying a word, and even the regiment leader Hu Xianqun was directly seconded.

    Of course, only the personnel are seconded, and there is no equipment at all.

    "Otherwise, Principal Chang will have to scold her again, and Dai Anlan will have a hard time doing it.

    However, for Zhong Yi and the Myanmar theater, it is enough for Hu Xianqun to bring all the officers and soldiers of the 1st Armored Regiment of the 200th Division to Myanmar, and the equipment is all ready-made.

    Staff Officer Wang rummaged through the telegram and replied: "I just passed through Guilin in the morning."

    "Just arrived in Guilin?" Zhong Yi frowned and said, "It's still more than a thousand kilometers from Guilin to Kunming, and it's even further to Yangon. If they go this way, how long will it take for them to reach Yangon?"

    Wang Geng just came back from sending the telegram and said: "It will take at least more than half a month."

    "More than half a month? By then the day lilies will be cold." Zhong Yi frowned and said, "This is not possible. Brother Shouqing, you immediately send a telegram to the China-Myanmar Transport Administration and offer a high price to send two hundred vehicles.  The truck went to Guangxi and brought over more than 4,000 officers and soldiers led by Commander Hu Xianqun! I must see them within a week!"

    "Yes!" Wang Geng agreed and hurried back to the communications office.

    Stilwell asked: "Zhong, the Battle of Xidang River is a defensive operation. The presence or absence of an armored brigade staff has little impact. Therefore, whether Captain Hu's armored regiment arrives early or late does not actually matter."

    If it were any other national army general, most of them would not dare to refute Stilwell.

    But Zhong Yi retorted unceremoniously: "No, General Stilwell, you are wrong. Even in defensive operations, we cannot blindly defend passively, but must carry out appropriate counterattacks!"

    "Especially the counterattack at certain critical moments is very useful!"

    "Hu Xianqun's armored brigade is a sharp blade used to counterattack!"

    Stilwell was not angry because of Zhong Yi's rebuttal. He nodded and asked, "Zhong, so you already have a specific plan on how to build Hu Xianqun's armored brigade?"

    Zhong Yi nodded and said, "We already have a preliminary idea."

    Stilwell asked with interest: "Can you tell me about it?"

    "Of course." Zhong Yi pointed to the map on the wall and said, "Here."

    "Xidang?" Stilwell said in astonishment, "Is the gap between us so big?"

    After a pause, Stilwell continued: "I originally thought that even if Hu Xianqun's armored brigade participated in the battle, it would probably be assigned to Pan Wenhua's 23rd Group Army, and then take advantage of the Japanese army's fierce attack on the Xidang River defense line to attack from the north.  Fight out of the jungle and launch an assault on the Japanese army from north to south, but now it seems that you obviously did not think so."

    Zhong Yi said: "General Stilwell, this is your normal operation.?, belongs to the right path.  "

    "The right way?" Stilwell said, "When fighting a war, shouldn't we take the right way?"

    Zhong Yi said: "Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, use the right combination to win by surprise. The general idea is that under the premise of having an advantage, we should cooperate with the enemy in an upright manner, but when we are at a disadvantage, we should  We can¡¯t just fight head-on, but we should win by surprise.¡±

    "Right now, our army is at a disadvantage."

    "If the armored brigade is assigned to the 23rd Group Army, when the Xidang River defense line is in emergency, it breaks out from the jungle on the north side, launches an assault from north to south, and attacks the Japanese army. Because the distance is too long, the surprise will be lost, and the Japanese army will  It can have enough time to deploy troops, carry out blocking and even targeted counterattacks."

    "But if the armored brigade is assigned to the 27th Group Army and hidden in the city of Sidang."

    "When the Xidang River defense line is in a critical situation, the armored brigade suddenly bursts out from Xidang City, which can catch the Japanese army off guard. Even if it cannot reverse the situation, it is enough to cause chaos to the Japanese army."

    "And if the command is good, it can even cause fatal damage to the Japanese troops on the east coast!"

    "Zhong, I admit that what you said is reasonable." Stilwell easily understood the power of it, and then questioned, "But the question is, how can the armored brigade be concealed?"

    ¡°There are residents in Xidang City, and there are also villages along the way.¡±

    "It is impossible for the armored brigade to move towards Xidang without being discovered."

    "The Japanese army only needs to make a little inquiry to discover the whereabouts of the armored brigade."

    "Once the Japanese army knew that the armored brigade was hiding in Xidang City, it would lose its surprise, wouldn't it?"

    "Yes, you are very correct." Zhong Yi nodded and said, "So it is necessary for us to transfer all the people near Xidang, just in the name of war."

    Stilwell asked in astonishment: "Is this why you came to find Barmer?"

    As soon as Stilwell finished speaking, the guard came in and reported: "Sir, Burmese Prime Minister Bamo wants to see you."

    "Invite him in." Zhong Yi agreed, and then said to Stilwell, "Let's go meet him together."

    "You guy, you have calculated everything." Stilwell said with a wry smile, "The funny thing is that as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Myanmar theater, I didn't know anything about it in advance."

    "Oh, no, no, General Stilwell, you are wrong." Zhong Yi said, "This is also a last-minute idea."

    "A spur-of-the-moment idea? Only a ghost will believe you." Stilwell said, "But it doesn't matter. As long as I can win the battle, I don't care about anything else. Really." (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
