My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 536

"Xikashi... The order of the general in the temple requires us to guard the border of Siam, otherwise..." Jiro Kimura fell into deep thought.

Now the Southern Army Command is sending more troops to Yangon, and wants to keep the last piece of resource land and large port in Myanmar, and now they can't take care of them at all.

But Terauchi Shouichi ordered them to stick to the northwest area of ​​Siam to prevent the Chinese from bypassing Karen State from Siam and cutting off the road traffic between Yangon and the Malay Peninsula. This is the key point of the strategy, so Kimura dare not retreat one of the reasons.

"Your Excellency, Commander, I suggest withdrawing to Nanbang City first to allow the troops to repair supplies, and then plan how to deal with the Huaxia people. After all, the remaining army rations are less than ten days, and the wounded..."

The staff officer looked at Kimura anxiously. Since the logistics route was destroyed by enemy planes, their supplies have been cut off for a week. In addition to the day and night bombing, the number of wounded soldiers is increasing every day. Hundreds of people have lost their lives due to infection. , Under the lack of medical treatment... Many seriously injured soldiers went to the field hospital and just waited there to die, and the situation is still getting worse.

"Is there less than ten days' worth of military rations left?"

Jiro Kimura began to feel embarrassed. There was nothing wrong with what the staff said. Facing the situation where there was no support and supplies after being surrounded by heavy troops, no matter how confident he was, he retreated at this moment.

The red arrows on the battle defense map touched people's hearts, and Kimura knew that his order would determine the final outcome of the 1 people.

"Enemy plane の air attack!"

The soldiers outside the headquarters shouted loudly, and the roar of the air came again.

"Your Excellency, Commander! Get into the air-raid shelter!"

Kimura clenched his fists angrily. Through the observation port, he could already see the densely packed dots in the air gradually enlarging, and the damn Yankee came to bomb again.

Several combat staff officers hurriedly cleaned up the documents on the table, and the adjutant pulled up Kimura and ran to the air-raid shelter behind without saying a word. The carpet bombing of the US military is not a joke. will be left.

call out……

boom!boom!boom…

Yinta Nuanshan was once again covered by aerial bombs, but the difference was that this wave of air strikes was also mixed with shelling, and the power was no longer the same as in the past.

The dark bombs fell on the top of the mountain one after another, and the earth-shaking explosions continued. The Japanese soldiers had to hide in their air defense bunkers and pray for God's blessing.

This time the bombing covers a wide area, covering the sky and the sun like the end of the world. Without large-scale permanent underground fortifications, it is impossible to effectively resist the power of bombs and shells.

The unsound tunnel was like a sieve of chaff, and the ash fell down. The little devil hiding in it could only tremble, and hoped that those bombs would not hit his head, otherwise he would really die without a whole body...

But what they don't know is... In addition to the US bombers in the air, there is also a formation of fifty C46 transport planes flying south over the Inthanon Mountain.

Each C46 carries 15-20 soldiers from the Merrill Detachment, as well as various individual support equipment. A total of more than 900 fully armed "air eagles" are about to spread their wings and soar into the sky.

In the cabin of a transport plane, the bearded Balzos leaned his head to the window. From his mixed-race appearance and black hair, it can be seen that he is a typical modern South American.

The clouds outside the window slowly dissipated, which indicated that the plane was flying down through the clouds.

Beside him, a dozen or so soldiers were sitting on seats near the bulkhead. They were wearing uniform jungle combat uniforms, and each of them was carrying a heavy umbrella bag on their backs. To hide the tension in my heart.

Balzos looked at him coldly but didn't say anything, but turned to look at one of the soldiers, pretending to be relaxed and asked: "Hey...Julio, I heard that you slept with a Burmese woman two days ago, Do you still have hair on your chest? Right?"

"Hahaha…"

"This guy has really strong taste..."

"I think it's just a man with long hair..."

The nonsensical sentence made everyone laugh out loud, as if everyone knew about it, they couldn't help looking at the soldier named Julio.

"Fart! That's Bodoluo's nonsense, you believe it too!? Shut up fuck!"

The young soldier Julio, who still had a few braids on the back of his head, blushed and retorted angrily. This embarrassing story almost spread in the team, and it almost became a lingering stain on his life. .

Balzos nodded in satisfaction. A short frolic helped dispel fear. The tension before the airborne is a normal phenomenon. As long as the leader remains calm, the others will not have too much psychological burden.

Ten minutes later, under the cover of fighter jets, the transport aircraft formation began to lower the flight altitude. The red indicator light in the cabin suddenly lit up. The pilot walked out from the cockpit and shouted to everyone:

"OK, ladies, it's time to perform on stage... Lieutenant Colonel Balzos, I wish you luck."

"Everyone stand up! Skydiving starts in 5 minutes!"

Balzos greeted them, and then went to the middle of the cabin to check the equipment of each soldier one by one, gave some necessary airborne essentials, and gave them a heavy pat on the shoulder to express encouragement.

"Don't panic, remember the usual training essentials!"

"Jump off in order, and the time to open the parachute can't be too early or too late, otherwise the last image that flashes before your eyes is your knee!"

"The pull rope of the auxiliary parachute is on your right. If the main parachute fails to open, don't panic. You still have a second chance, but don't fucking let me open both at the same time..."

The hatch was slowly opened, and the gust of wind whizzed towards his face in an instant. Balzos was the first to walk to the hatch. The hundreds of meters of altitude under his feet were breathtaking, and his heartbeat also involuntarily accelerated a bit.

"Altitude 800, the wind direction is southerly!" The pilot shouted loudly in the strong wind, and at the same time gave Balzos a thumbs up, indicating that the other party can start.

Without hesitation, Balzos jumped out of the cabin with all his strength. His body was like a strand of leaves falling straight down. He let the strong wind rage by his ears, concentrated on adjusting the angle of his body, and quickly pulled open the umbrella bag and put it on after a few seconds. drawstring.

The soldiers followed his steps and jumped off the plane one by one. Light gray parachutes bloomed in mid-air like blooming flowers. After a while, a large echelon of parachutes floating downward appeared in the sky.

The airborne area is [-] kilometers south of Inthanon Mountain, which is the only way for the Japanese army to retreat to the south. At this time, many Japanese troops stationed here have already discovered the situation in the air.

This was a blast. It should be the first time they have encountered the enemy's airborne attack from deep into the rear. In a panic, the devils had no choice but to set up their machine guns and start shooting at the targets in the air.

Due to the lack of anti-aircraft guns, these scattered Japanese troops can only rely on their existing weapons to attack, and those Type [-] light machine guns are so powerless to face air targets hundreds of meters away. Rats can hit a few paratroopers who are close, but they can't do anything farther away.

Escort fighters don't just watch and don't work. Seeing that there are enemies blocking the ground, they roar down from the sky immediately without saying a word. .

Anyway, there is no threat of large-scale anti-aircraft artillery, they can act recklessly in the sky, as long as the Japanese army dares to expose the firepower, the target will not survive 5 minutes.

Half an hour later, more than 900 soldiers basically completed the airborne, and the transport aircraft formation did not delay too much, and then returned to Heihe Base after airdropping the accompanying equipment of the Merrill Commando, where there was still a second batch of airborne personnel waiting. transport.
