"Really?" Ishihara smiled and asked, "Are the boats across the river ready?"
"Hai." Guodi Nahua Xiong paused and said, "Everything is ready."
"Tell me," Ishihara smiled, "What ships have been prepared?"
"Hai." Kaohsiung Tanina paused again and continued, "The navy has prepared more than a dozen landing craft for us. In addition, it has also recruited more than fifty barges from the Thai Navy. In addition, in the east Andaman Sea The total number of civilian fishing boats recruited from the shore is about two hundred, which can transport at least one infantry regiment to the west bank of the Salween River at a time."
"Yo Xi." Ishihara smiled and nodded happily.
Transporting one infantry regiment at a time requires only seven or eight round trips for a division, and it takes half a day to cross the river.
This means that the four divisions of the 25th Army plus four independent regiments can cross the river in three days at most.
After a pause, Ishihara Wanji continued: "In order to speed up the march for this attack, the army only carried less than half a month's worth of combat supplies. The next logistics support is a big problem. Your staff has already made a plan. ?"
"Hai." Tanishi Nahuaxiong said after a pause, "The supply of subsequent combat materials will be transferred by the navy."
"Navy?" Ishihara smiled and said, "There is uncertainty in shipping. Once it is attacked by the British Royal Navy, it may be delayed or even damaged. Do you have an emergency plan?"
"This" Tanigi Nahuaxiong was speechless. He had never done this before.
"Baga." Ishihara smiled angrily, "You don't even have an emergency plan?"
Tanigi Nahuaxiong whispered: "Your Excellency, Commander, with the combined navy fleet here, the British Royal Navy may not dare to enter the Andaman Sea again, right?"
Ishihara smiled and frowned.
From the tone of Tanigi Nahuaxiong, Ishihara Wanji heard the undisguised contempt.
The huge success of the Pearl Harbor incident not only brought huge war rewards to Japan, but also brought another negative impact, that is, neither the navy nor the army will take Western powers seriously.
The Pearl Harbor incident and the devastating victory of the Battle of Hawaii that followed immediately reversed the Japanese military's deep-rooted impression of the West. The Japanese suddenly discovered that the West was a paper tiger that looked majestic and invincible. But it¡¯s really vulnerable to a fight!
As a result, the morale and morale of the Japanese army were unprecedentedly high.
The increase in morale and morale has a good side.
The good thing is that the Japanese army has a psychological advantage when facing the armies of Western powers.
The reason why the Japanese army was able to quickly achieve victory against the armies of the United States, Britain, the Netherlands and other Western powers in the Southeast Asian battlefield is inseparable from the psychological excellence they established in the Battle of Hawaii!
¡°However, in addition to the good side, there is also a bad side.
The bad side is that the Japanese army has become more arrogant than before!
Ishihara Wan'er understands this truth very well.
As expected, the navy will soon suffer defeat in the Andaman Sea.
For the Navy, there is actually no harm in suffering a partial defeat in the Andaman Sea, but for the Army, especially for their 25th Army, the Navy's defeat in the Andaman Sea may lead to catastrophic seriousness. The consequences, because once the Navy is expelled from the Andaman Sea, even temporarily, the 25th Army may face a desperate situation of running out of ammunition and food.
At that moment, Ishihara smiled and said in a deep voice: "Tani Ogina-kun, Britain has dominated the oceans for more than a hundred years, so never underestimate a former world hegemon! Your staff must make an emergency plan. Once the navy's special task force is expelled, Once sea transportation is cut off out of the Andaman Sea, how will the 25th Army's logistical support be solved?"
"In this case, we can only take the land route," Guodi said.
"Land passage?" Ishihara smiled and turned his eyes to the muddy road outside the window, "Is this the road?"
"This road I'm afraid it will be overwhelmed." Tanodi Nahuaxiong frowned, "This road not only requires a long detour, which delays time, but the most important thing is that the China Army only needs to send a small force. It can be easily cut off by taking a roundabout way, so we may have to find another transportation line."
As he said that, Tanigi Nahuaxiong spread out the map.
After looking at the map for a moment, Kaohsiung Tarina said: "Commander, look, there is a railway here from Bangkok."It is less than fifty kilometers from Banta Tuna at the western foot of Mount Bilao to Yecheng at the eastern foot of Mount Bilao! As long as we rush to build a simple road between the two places, we can solve the problem of land transportation lines. "
Ishihara Wanji nodded and said: "The question is who will build this road?"
"The laborers are all readily available," Kao Tanigina said. "During the Malay Peninsula and Singapore campaigns, we captured a large number of British and Burmese prisoners of war, and we just let these prisoners of war come to build roads."
¡°If that¡¯s not enough, we can arrest Chinese people as laborers.¡±
¡°There are millions of Chinese in the Malay Peninsula and Thailand.¡±
"Yo Xi!" Ishihara Wanji nodded happily and said, "Taniha-kun, please immediately send a telegram to the Imperial Embassy in Thailand. This matter will be coordinated by the Thai Embassy first! Then your staff will follow up."
"Hai." Guodi and Hua Xiong nodded heavily.

In Yangon, the Myanmar Theater Commander's Department.
Zhong Yi said: "The army has not moved yet, food and grass go first, and logistics support is the top priority."
"That's right." Wang Geng said with deep conviction, "Especially under the premise that shipping is blocked by the Japanese navy, the logistical support in the Myanmar theater will be even more difficult!"
Stilwell said solemnly: "That's why we need to rush to repair the India-Burma Highway."
Zhong Yi shook his head and said: "No matter how fast the India-Burma highway is built, it will never be completed within two months, so we can't count on it in the first phase or even the second phase of the Myanmar campaign."
Stilwell frowned and said, "Then we can only save some supplies."
"But the British and Burmese troops only left us half of the battle supplies. No matter how frugal they were, they could only last about half a month." Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "So in the first stage of the battle, even In the second stage, I¡¯m afraid we have to find a solution through other channels.¡±
"Other channels?" Stilwell said, "What channel?"
Zhong Yi said cheerfully: "General Stilwell, if I remember correctly, the first batch of military supplies obtained by the National Government from the US government under the Lend-Lease Act has arrived at Yangon Port, right? As far as I know, this batch Military supplies mainly include ammunition, food and medical equipment, right?"
"That's right, a total of 200,000 tons of supplies." Stilwell said.
The next second, Stilwell¡¯s expression suddenly changed and he said, ¡°Zhong, do you want to requisition this batch of supplies?¡±
"No, no, it's not requisition, it's borrowing." Zhong Yi smiled slightly and said, "You can also buy it." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
