Invincible from the sword

Chapter 257 It's Not Scientific
Under the cover of four tanks, the frontal attack brigade of the Japanese army started a ground attack.

Although there are only four tanks, the Japanese army's infantry and tanks are coordinated and used very skillfully.

The quality of the Japanese tanks was poor, and the caliber of the barrels was small, but they were still tanks anyway.

Ordinary machine guns are impenetrable.

The island nation also knows that the Mi Army has very powerful equipment, so the entire No.20 Fifth Army of the Japanese Army is equipped with heavy tanks.

And it has also been specially modified, which is very different from the tanks in the East.

The skins of Japanese tanks in the east are very thin, and heavy machine guns can directly penetrate the steel plates of Japanese tanks.

However, the tanks equipped with the No.20 Fifth Army of the Japanese Army have obviously thicker steel plates.

After a symbolic resistance for two hours, the Mi Army directly abandoned the forward position of Naleb Mountain.

Shrunk the troops and retreated to the other side of Naleb Mountain.

Pipe Mike didn't expect that his troops would not be able to last even a day at Naleb Mountain.

Shocked.

This is so unscientific.

I have carefully designed the position there, how could it not last for a day?
Pipe Mike's face is black,

If this continues, at most two days, he will be captured by the Japanese army.

Absolutely not.

I have to figure out a way.

Pipe Mike looked at the map on the wall.

Now Bagak on the Bataan Peninsula is still in their hands.

There is a port.

There, there are several light destroyers of the Asian fleet of their lighthouse country.

It is used to retreat.

It seems that now, it is time to retreat.

But there were several ships, and it was impossible to withdraw so many troops.

Pipe Mike made a bold decision.

I will go by myself.

Directly hand over the command of the troops to Wainwright.

Wainwright is heading this way with his division.

The goal is very clear, which is to put Pipe Mike under house arrest, and then take over the command of the entire army.

Wainwright's troops were moving very fast.

He had to take over command before Pipe Mike's troops were surrounded.

Otherwise, there is no play at all.

Wainwright couldn't figure out that Pipe Mike put all his troops on the Bataan Peninsula.

It's not a good place to defend at all.

Once surrounded, there is not even a place to retreat.

And the Japanese army has naval warships.

When the time comes, the Japanese warships will come over and directly block off the sea off the Bataan Peninsula. The [-] troops of Pipe Mike will only be shot.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Wainwright's idea was that the Bataan Peninsula must be withdrawn as soon as possible.

Fighting against the Japanese army is not such a way of playing.

Wainwright was sitting in the jeep, thinking about what to do next, when a soldier from the US Army chased after him: "General, General Pipe Mike's urgent call!"

urgent telegram! ?
When Wainwright heard that it was from Pipe Mike, he immediately trembled.

What the hell!

Pipe Mike's troops, wouldn't they be surrounded already? ?

Wainwright quickly picked up the telegram, and then...

Confused.

The telegram said: "General Wainwright, in order to better fight against the Japanese army, I have led my guard group to retreat from the Bataan Peninsula.

Now the command of the entire army, I give you full authority.

General Wainwright, I trust you to lead the troops to victory.

See you in Kangaroo Country.

I wish you peace.

Pipe Mike. "

This is so...

Wainwright read the telegram several times and gasped.

Pipe Mike, that bastard, left the troops behind and ran away by himself! ? ?

What the hell!

He's going to be court-martialed like this! ! !

Wainwright's face darkened.

His worldview was directly shattered.

This operation is so rude!

Wainwright didn't dare to be careless, and while ordering the troops to rush to the Bataan Peninsula as quickly as possible, he urgently contacted the staff group and told Stilwell the contents of Pipe Mike's telegram.

Stilwell was confused.

Pipe Mike, drop your troops and run away! ?

Is this what people did?
Stilwell never imagined that such a thing would happen at this juncture.

In the Bataan Peninsula, there are their [-] troops.

Can Pipe Mike leave behind 10 people and run to Kangaroo Country by himself?

Pipe Mike, be yourself!

Such an accident caught Stilwell off guard, Pipe Mike ran away, and Wainwright hadn't arrived in Bataan yet.

This is very dangerous.

Without the commander, the troops cannot last a day.

Stilwell hurriedly asked Zhang Lei if there was any good way.

Anyway, this is still 10 people. It would be a pity if the entire army was wiped out.

Zhang Lei never thought that Pipe Mike could do such a stupid thing.

It will take at least one more day for Wainwright's troops to reach the Bataan Peninsula.

This is too slow.

In one day, the troops probably collapsed.

A unit without a commander is a mess.

A slight attack by the Japanese army can completely destroy this force.

Zhang Lei frowned and looked at the map.

Their staff group is about a day away from the Bataan Peninsula.

We must find a way to get to Bataan Peninsula as soon as possible.

Zhang Lei thought for a while, and said to Stilwell: "General Stilwell, the only way now is for us to speed up and reach the Bataan Peninsula in half a day.

Wainwright's troops have a division, and it is impossible for them to reach the Bataan Peninsula in half a day. "

Half a day?

Stilwell looked at the map and shook his head: "Zhang Lei, we are also far away from the Bataan Peninsula. According to our current speed, it is basically impossible to reach the Bataan Peninsula within half a day."

Zhang Lei grinned: "If it's the entire staff group, it's really unlikely, but if it's just you and me, then there is still a possibility for us to reach the Bataan Peninsula."

Stilwell was taken aback.

Does this make any difference?

Zhang Lei pointed to the airport in Cavite and said to Stilwell: "Old Shi, look, it has been an hour and a half since we set off from Cavite Airport to here.

If we go back again, it will also take an hour and a half.

I remember at the Cavite airport, there seemed to be two two-seat fighter jets.

We go by plane.

From Cavite Airport to Bataan Peninsula, it takes almost half an hour. "

What the hell! ?

When Stilwell heard what Zhang Lei said, his face turned pale, and he thought he had heard it wrong.

Go by plane?
my mother...

Zhang Lei, the air supremacy of the entire Filipino Islands is now in the hands of the Japanese army.

We're going by plane, are you sure nothing will go wrong?

Anyway, I am considered a major general of the Lighthouse Country, and if I was killed by the Japanese army, I would be too aggrieved.

Stilwell looked at Zhang Lei: "Zhang Lei, are you serious?"

Zhang Lei nodded: "Stilwell, it's time for you to become famous all over the world."

Don't look at Stilwell as a major general in the Lighthouse Country, but he doesn't know how to fly a plane.

After all, Stilwell is the Lighthouse Army, not the Air Force.

Stilwell can't, but Zhang Lei can.

The people at Cavite Airport were very surprised to see Stilwell and Zhang Lei coming back in a dusty car.

what's wrong?

The person in charge of the airport hurried over: "Lost?"

Stilwell's face darkened immediately.

I am a major general of the Lighthouse Kingdom, will I get lost?

Who are you looking down on?

You are lost!
Your whole family is lost!
Zhang Lei: "Refuel the two-seater fighter immediately, we are going to the Bataan Peninsula."

watt?

The eyes of the person in charge of the base widened with a swipe: "NONONONONO, this is absolutely not acceptable, it is too dangerous.

Now the sky over the entire Filipino Islands is full of Japanese aircraft.

You flew the plane and were quickly shot down.

I cannot take this responsibility. "

The head of the base disagrees.

responsible?

Zhang Lei grinned: "Have I made you responsible? I am ordering you to refuel the plane immediately. If the plane fails to fly within 5 minutes, I will shoot you directly."

Zhang Lei is usually very kind, but when it comes to things, he is decisive and aggressive.

Even Stilwell was dumbfounded.

He suddenly had a little confidence.

Perhaps, Zhang Lei's method really works.

The P36 two-seater fighter in Lighthouse Country quickly filled up with fuel and loaded the cannons on the plane with bullets.

Stilwell sat in the back, curiously looking at the rows of buttons in front of him.

Zhang Lei skillfully started the plane and started the propeller.

Soon the plane slid onto the runway, and after a beautiful lift, it buzzed into the sky.

Zhang Lei told Stilwell to sit there and not move anything, just leave the plane to him.

The silver-white plane flew quickly towards the Bataan Peninsula.

In order to prevent being spotted by Japanese aircraft, Zhang Lei flew the plane very low, only tens of meters above the ground.

Such a height is very dangerous. If one is not careful, he may fall to the ground.

It was still the first time for Stilwell to fly in a fighter jet, and he felt dizzy.

The screaming continued.

The entire plane was filled with Stilwell's terrifying screams.

Just as Zhang Lei and Stilwell rushed to the Bataan Peninsula, the Japanese army began another attack.

In order to take Naleb Mountain as quickly as possible, Kimura Wangba ordered his troops to attack in an all-round way.

The outer positions of the Mi Army have been completely occupied by Kimura's troops.

All that remains is to take Naleb Mountain.

The altitude of Naleb Mountain is about the same as that of the opposite Mariveles Mountain.

One is 1000 two hundred meters, and the other is one thousand and 300 meters.

After taking down Naleb Mountain, you can directly mount the mountain cannon on it and shoot towards the opposite side.

At that time, it will be a matter of minutes to surround the Mi army.

Originally, Kimura's plan was to use the navy's large-caliber naval guns to directly cover the opposite Mariveles Mountain with artillery, and then attack by ground forces.

This is faster.

But the navy doesn't care about him at all.

This left Kimura Wangba with nothing to do.

idiot.

The bastards of the island navy are really too arrogant, and they can't fight at all.

Everywhere drags the hind legs of our island country army.

After all, Kimura Wangba is also the brigade commander of the island army, with the rank of major general, and he can't even command a warship.

It really upset him.

In fact, not only Kimura bastard, but also the commander of the attack on the Filipino Maid Islands, Masaharu Monkaku, is not very commanding.

There is no way, the grievances between the island nation's navy and the island nation's army are too great.

This southward plan can be said to be a carnival for the navy of the island country.

In particular, the joint fleet commanded by Yamamoto 56 attacked Pearl Harbor in the lighthouse country, making the island country's navy reach its peak in the island country.

All island navies feel that they can finally be on an equal footing with the island army.

Our island navy is not all eating shit, there are also people who can fight.

But when the base camp of the island country began to attack Southeast Asia, the navy of the island country was surprised to find that they were not the material for war at all.

It's okay for them to shoot a few shots at sea, but landing operations...

The navy of the island nation simply can't do it.

After all, it is the elite class of the island country, which is famous for being afraid of death.

In the navy of the island country, all the officers of the island country were not born as civilians, and the worst were the small landlord class of the island country.

In the homes of many naval officers of the island country, there are prominent big families in the island country.

The reason why they joined the island nation's navy was to gain military merit.

It is best to be the kind of military exploits that fall from the sky.

If you really want to work hard, they simply can't do it.

Not only can they not do it, even the Marine Corps of the island country can't do it either.

The combat power is very scum.

It is far behind the Japanese army.

At most, it is the level of the C-level division of the Japanese army.

This made the island navy very unhappy.

Because they discovered that there were not many warships in the Lighthouse Army at this time.

Almost ran.

Military exploits have no part in them at all.

Seeing the army of the island country humming and hahahah landing and occupying the territory, the navy of the island country is red-eyed.

Everyone is a bastard, why can you become a turtle, and I am a bastard?
Therefore, the navy of the island country is very negative about the attack plan of the Philippine Maid Islands this time.

If you can't do it, you don't do it.

Although nominally the joint formation of the Philippine Maid Islands Campaign was under the command of Honko Yaharu, the commander of the joint formation, Takahashi Ino, did not take Honko Yaharu seriously.

You Masaharu Honkaku is the lieutenant general of the island country, and so is I, Takahashi Ino!
I can send a troop carrier to transport your two divisions to the Filipino Islands and blockade Luzon Island, which is enough to give you face.

For the rest, you can figure it out yourself.

Therefore, there is no other way for this pavilion, Yaqing.

You can't go to Commander Yamashita Fengwen to file a complaint, right?
It seems that I belong to Yaqing, and I am too cowardly.

Isn't it the lighthouse country force?
Afraid of hair!
It is enough to have our island country army.

Benge Yaqing told Kimura Wangba that he must take the Bataan Peninsula within three days, and let those island country navies see how awesome our island country army is.

Kimura Wangba was not very worried about this task.

I even felt that three days was too long.

Kimura Wangba's whole state of mind has undergone quite a change.

It only took a few days from the fear when I first landed to the arrogance now.

This is all because the Mi Army can't help but fight.

This time, Kimura Wangba feels that the Bataan Peninsula will only take two days at most.

Facts have proved that Kimura Wangba is not bragging.

Only a few hours after the offensive began, the front-line defensive positions of the Mi Army were destroyed by his troops.

It is only a matter of time before Naleb Mountain is taken down.
