Invincible from the sword

Chapter 278 Is This No Discussion?
Otherwise, Shojiro Iida would not have been so stingy back then.

Moreover, when fighting with the No.18 Division of the Japanese Army in Yangon, the Japanese aircraft did not even show their faces.

This is very anomalous.

So Zhang Lei felt that there would not be too many planes left in the hands of Okamura Neiji.

All he had to do was to find Neiji Okamura's plane and destroy it.

This time, the Japanese army obviously came to Yangon.

It is highly consistent with Zhang Lei's judgment.

Neiji Okamura used four divisions to attack Yangon, so their planes will definitely come over.

This is a good opportunity to destroy the Japanese aircraft in one fell swoop.

Yangon's defense line is very solid.

Because the Fifth Army is in the front of Yangon, it has set up five lines of defense.

The independent regiment was on the flank, so three lines of defense were set up.

Although there are only three lines of defense, Zhang Lei set them up very skillfully.

In front of the first line of defense, everything is a swamp.

Zhang Lei asked someone to open a hole from the Irrawaddy River and put the water on the flank of Yangon.

At that time, all the tanks of the Japanese army will have to lie down.

And the infantry artillery of the Japanese army is also difficult to advance.

Then it's a target.

In addition, a large number of barbed wire and landmines were also set up.

Densely everywhere.

Zhang Dabiao's first battalion was in charge of the first line of defense.

His task is to defend on the first line of defense for a day, and then retreat to the third line of defense to make corrections.

Chen San's second battalion was in charge of the second line of defense.

Yang Lihua's artillery battalion was placed behind the third line of defense.

The tank battalion is a mobile unit responsible for providing fire assistance.

Because they received tanks from the Alexander Armored Brigade, the first and second battalions now also have tanks.

It's just that there are not so many tanks.

Each battalion has thirty vehicles.

The remaining forty vehicles were all replenished to Zhou Weiguo's tank battalion.

For defensive battles, thirty tanks are enough.

The advance speed of the Japanese army was very fast, and it took almost a day from Bangkok, Thailand to the outskirts of Yangon.

The distance between Bangkok, Thailand and Yangon is very short, and the middle area is very flat and there is no danger to defend.

Therefore, the entire expeditionary force did not put limited troops there.

Zhang Lei divided Leif's planes into two teams in order to draw out the Japanese planes.

One team was in charge of bombing the Japanese army.

The other team was also in charge of ambush, as soon as the Japanese plane came out, it would rush up.

As a result, Neiji Okamura seemed to have guessed Zhang Lei's thoughts. During this day, none of the Japanese planes appeared.

Rafe's plane dropped almost [-] heavy bombs and Molotov cocktails on the Japanese.

The bombing worked surprisingly well.

Because the No.15 Army of the Japanese Army advances together with four divisions, the force is very compact.

The entire No.15 Japanese Army moved forward in six columns.

It meanders without seeing the edge.

Because the terrain from Bangkok to Yangon is very flat, it is very suitable for aircraft bombing.

So Rafe's plane is also welcome.

The plane went back and forth without stopping.Each plane can carry two heavy bombs.

One weighs almost a hundred catties.

Three meters long and one meter thick.

The power of the explosion is very powerful.

Leif was quite worried at first, after all, the main purpose of his plane this time was to lure out the Japanese army and kill them.

So in the beginning, their planes didn't carry many bombs, in order to be able to engage in air combat immediately after dropping the bombs.

But after several rounds of bombing, no trace of Japanese aircraft was found at all.

This is out of the question.

Leif immediately decided to use [-] planes for cover, and the remaining [-] planes were all equipped with bombs and bombed for me.

It turned out that there were fifty of Leif's planes, and another thirty from Alexander were received in Mandalay.

So now he has eighty fighter jets in total.

In Mandalay, there are still six Queen's Kingdom bombers, but because Leif and the others have never flown bombers, they can only sit idle.

Leif looked regretful.

Bombers require high pilot skills and require two pilots.

Without special training, you can't drive that thing at all.

So just stare blankly.

The Japanese army on the ground did not expect the opponent to be so arrogant, and the planes bombed too frequently.

Inflicted great casualties on them.

Several division heads were a little confused.

Shouldn't this plane bombing be a routine operation of our Japanese army?

How did it turn over now?

It's been a day of bombing, and there are thousands of big bombs dropped!

The explosive power of each bomb is astonishing.

The fragments produced by the explosion had a killing radius of 50 meters.

In other words, within 50 meters of the explosion point, there is no hope of survival at all.

too frightening.

Just tore them to shreds.

If not torn apart, they were all shocked to death.

There are also a large number of devils who were burned.

During this day, the combined casualties of the four divisions of the Japanese army exceeded [-]!

idiot.

Is this a joke?
This has not even seen the shadow of the opponent's troops, so many casualties!

How to fight later?
A shadow was cast over the minds of several Japanese division commanders.

This is a bit different from what they first imagined.

According to their assumption, as long as their Japanese army pushes over, the opponent's troops should collapse immediately.

What's wrong this time?
Also, Neiji Okamura, a big idiot, why did he just watch us being bombarded like this.

What about our island nation's planes?

Eat shit?

The heads of the four divisions of the Japanese army jointly requested Okamura Ningji to send his plane over immediately.

Fight with each other in the air!

Isn't the performance of our island country's aircraft amazing?
Afraid of hair!
Okamura Ningji looked dark.

Among the Japanese commanders, Okamura Ningji had a very bad face.

Baga, you are the fucking idiots.

Do you think I don't want to send the plane out?
Now the other party is riding on my Okamura's neck and shit!If this was left before, I would have my revenge in minutes.

But now, he doesn't have that strength at all!

The entire No.15 Army of the Japanese Army has only forty planes left, which is not enough at all.

Judging from the current situation, the opponent's planes are more than a hundred at least.

Sending your own plane over now is courting death.

Neiji Okamura checked the plane in his hand.

All old and dilapidated.

Performance is particularly poor.

It simply cannot be compared with the latest aircraft of their island country.

This made Ningji Okamura very dizzy.

Grass mud horse!
The best planes are all given to the navy of the island country. That bastard Yamamoto 56 eats more and takes more.

Now the joint wing of Yamamoto 56 has more than [-] carrier-based aircraft alone.

Combined with the Marine Corps aircraft, the total number exceeds [-].

How many planes did their island country produce in total! ?

Okamura Ningji was very speechless.

When they were in the east, their island country army was not bad, at least the number of aircraft could still be guaranteed.Although the performance is average, but at least there is.

But here, the plane cannot be seen.

Okamura Ningji knew very well that such a plane was at best a superficial one.

If the opponent doesn't have a plane, then his planes can fill the scene and drop a few bombs from the sky.

But the expeditionary force is now equipped with aircraft from the lighthouse country.

A group with strong protection ability.

Can't beat it.

Can't beat it at all.

So even though he knew that his four divisions were being bombed, Okamura Ningji had nothing to do.

Sending these planes up will only kill more island country pilots.

Neiji Okamura said with a gloomy face, "Order the troops to advance quickly.

Within three days, take Yangon! "

Show Dad is dead!

Kawaguchi also understands Okamura Ningji's difficulties, and he has no good solution.

Now the No. 15 Army, only these four infantry divisions are available.

Bite the bullet and hit it.

So the four divisions of the Japanese army continued to advance towards Yangon.

By the time the troops were pushed to the outskirts of Yangon, the casualties had exceeded 8000.

Okamura Ningji's eyelids twitched in shock.

Why do I have an unknown feeling?

Neiji Okamura looked at the map and issued a combat order: "No. 30, the third and fifth divisions, attack from the front of Yangon.

The Second Division and the [-]th Division roundabout and outflanked from the Yangon flank. "

old routine.

Okamura Ningji played this hand very smoothly.

No need to think about it at all.

In Yangon City, Du Guangting, commander of the Fifth Army, was chatting with Zhang Lei.

Du Guangting was very calm at this moment.

There was no sense of panic at all.

It makes him feel good.

Can't help but look at Zhang Lei twice.

With Zhang Lei around, it seemed like nothing was a problem.

After the four divisions of the Japanese army advanced to the outskirts of Yangon, they immediately began to attack.

On the front of Yangon are the No.30 Third and Fifth Divisions of the Japanese Army.

According to the order of Neiji Okamura, the No.30 Third Division launched the attack first.

Daisuke Ishiguro, head of the No.30 Third Division of the Japanese Army, was very worried.

His troops could not be deployed at all.

Moreover, the tanks and heavy artillery in his division were unable to move forward.

There are swamps everywhere.

So far, none of the tanks in his division have come out.

Can't move at all.

Knee-deep mud, not to mention tanks, his infantry advance is very difficult.

But Neiji Okamura didn't care about this at all.

The time has come and the attack must be made.

He couldn't wait any longer.

If he waited any longer, there would be problems with his logistical supplies.

After receiving telegrams from several divisions, Okamura Ningji did not postpone the attack time.

He has already failed once in Changsha.

This time in Yangon, there is no way to fail.

It was not easy for him to have a chance to stand up. If he was defeated again this time, his reputation as Neiji Okamura would be ruined.

It's just a swamp, and it's nothing to the powerful troops of our island country.

Not to mention swamps, even latrines, can't stop us from moving forward.

Okamura Neiji stabbed his fist on Kawaguchi's head and ordered the troops to attack! ! !
