Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli ordered the aviation unit to be so ruthless to the transport fleet responsible for airdropping supplies for the Japanese army. The possible actions to be taken gave the commander of the aviation unit a musical instrument and issued a combat order.

As soon as the Japanese transport fleet took off from Hainan Island, it fell into the sight of the radar station in Xuwen, Leizhou Peninsula. Le Yiqin wanted to order the fighter jets to take off and intercept them, and try to shoot them down on the sea when they entered Vietnam. At this time, I received a call from the teacher Tang Qiuli, and then I got the above-mentioned strange order.

To be honest, Le Yiqin was also confused, but the commander's order was so unquestionable, 32 fighter jets followed the Japanese transport fleet in the clouds, and successfully found the airdrop field set up by the Japanese army. In an air battle where eagles catch chicks, 26 Japanese transport planes, together with the hope of 10,000+ Japanese soldiers in Savage Mountain, were sent to the ground to fight smoothly. Our own troops did not suffer any losses. It stands to reason that Le Yiqin should also be happy, but his mood was similar to Lin Zhixian's. He couldn't cheer up and couldn't stand Lin Zhixian's sobbing. He couldn't understand the division commander's order not to attack the Japanese ground troops. Feeling panicked, no, after checking all the aircraft participating in the battle, I returned to the headquarters, wandered around for a few times, and then picked up the phone to the division headquarters.

"Hello, is the division headquarters? I'm looking for the division commander. I'm the one. Le Yiqin, the commander of the aviation unit." Tang Qiuli, who received a telegram from Chutian, the leader of the special operations detachment, frowned when Le Yiqin was looking for him.

He answered the phone and said, "Le Yiqin, are you not convinced by my order and have come to accuse me?" On the other end of the phone, Le Yiqin was startled, and quickly denied it, "No, Teacher, I don’t have the guts to question the teacher’s order, some pilots in the army couldn’t figure it out, so they entrusted me to ask, if the teacher is busy, then pretend that I didn’t say anything.”[

Tang Qiuli probably realized that his tone was a bit harsh, so he slowed down and said, "Yiqin, you and your pilot have doubts. It's understandable. The situation at that time was that the Japanese military transport plane had already taken off, and time was tight, so I didn't Tell you in detail why.

Tang Qiuli pulled up a chair and sat down, then said: "Yiqin, as a senior commander, you should stand at a height higher than ordinary pilots to consider strategic and tactical issues. If you dispatch 32 fighter jets, if you attack the Japanese army at Savage Mountain Launching an attack can eliminate many Japanese troops, but have you considered that we just destroyed the Japanese army’s airdrop supplies, which is tantamount to ruining their only hope.”

"Then what is the psychological blow of leaving a Japanese soldier? Without any external aid, this is intentional to create panic and despair. The psychological blow to the Japanese army is more effective than destroying thousands of enemies. This is the tactical and psychological blow. The difference is that Savage Mountain has so many natural resources. The more Japanese troops gather, the less each Japanese soldier will be allocated. When people are in extreme difficulties, they can do anything, and the Japanese are no exception.

Le Yiqin was dizzy when he heard that, just an order not to attack the Japanese army on Yeren Mountain, there are so many ways, why does the commander's head grow?Convinced, he also understood everything, cut off the thought of airdropping supplies, and let the Japanese kill each other. After holding back for a long time, he didn't know what words to use to describe the master's strategy, "Master, I am convinced, You are so poisonous!"

Tang Qiuli was stunned, dumbfounded, who else would praise himself like this?If he wanted to speak again, Le Yiqin probably sensed his speech problems, and hurriedly said, "Master, I won't bother you anymore, and I have to go to a combat summary meeting." After finishing speaking, she seemed to run away before Tang Qiuli could speak. Busily put down the phone.

Tang Qiuli laughed angrily, and asked for the phone again, but before Le Yiqin left the headquarters, the phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was the teacher's voice, and his heart trembled, "Yiqin, at Kunming Airport , Concentrate the transport planes of the two brigades, they will be used in the near future, and they need to be escorted by fighter jets." It turned out to be a combat arrangement, and I put it back in my stomach with Le Yiqin's heart.

Chutian's telegram was to report the recent battle situation. The British sent a large number of troops to attack Chutian's troops. After the real battle with the British army, Chutian realized that he absolutely overestimated these high-nosed, blue-eyed troops. The British, in terms of weapons and equipment, surpassed the Japanese by a large margin.

However, when it comes to combat power, Chu Tian doesn't know

How to describe these British soldiers, the most typical is a battle in Phongsali in Laos. Chutian commanded a direct unit, attached to two reconnaissance battalions of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps and a mortar company, at best it was less than a regiment The British army in Phongsali has an infantry brigade and two tank battalions stationed. In addition, there are also artillery brigades, engineering battalions, transport battalions, and search brigades. With more than 9000 people, Chutian fought with the British army for three days around Fengsari, killing half of the British army piecemeal. The major general of the British army, the brigade commander, was taken prisoner.

Since the battle against the British army, in a few days, not only repelled the British army's attack, but also captured more than 7000 prisoners. As for the seized weapons, medicines and various supplies, there are countless. The soldiers of the army are all traveling thousands of miles from Europe to Asia, so they must be well-trained and powerful soldiers, right?

It represents the force and image of the British, but in a fight, as long as the British commander is killed or surrounded, there is almost no need to fight, and they immediately shouted to surrender, and they were very obedient, and did not take the opportunity to escape or resist Yes, this point is far from the crazy and fierce fighting style of Japanese soldiers.

The most unbelievable encounter for Chutian was barely called a battle. A small unit of the special warfare detachment fought against a team of the third unit. The soldiers "cracked" their submachine guns, and then shouted, "You are surrounded, put down your weapons and ensure your personal safety!"

The soldiers of the special operations detachment who have fought bloody battles with the Japanese army for many years, of course know that this is a psychological tactic, anyway, it is not very effective against the little devils. I tried it on the British, and the soldiers were stunned. First, a white flag waved violently Immediately afterwards, hundreds of British soldiers lined up, raised their hands, and walked out of the position in an orderly manner.

A captain of the British army came over to take charge of the negotiations, speaking half-baked Chinese, stammering demands, treating the prisoners of war humanely and maintaining their dignity as soldiers. , The division pointed out that there was an order strictly prohibiting the shooting of British prisoners.

When the results of the battle were reported to Chu Tian, ​​his jaw almost dropped from shock. The special operations team had at most 50 people, and none of them were injured. They captured more than 300 British prisoners, and Chu Tian smashed his teeth. The battle was well fought, revealing evil ways, and these situations were all written in Chutian's battle report.

Chu Tian had only one conclusion. The combat effectiveness of the British army in Southeast Asia was extremely low. The training and tactical level of the soldiers was more than ten times behind the Japanese army. Chu Tian didn't understand the reason, but Tang Qiuli knew it well.

The British army has been dominating the Southeast Asian colonies for a long time, and there is no armed force that can threaten their status. The combat effectiveness of the troops will naturally drop sharply, and they will not be able to hold guns if they are used to enjoying themselves.

Historically, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, both the Americans and the British were beaten to the ground by the Japanese army, and even in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the national army was defeated all the way, lost cities and territories, and shot five hundred miles away. After hearing about the [-]-year-old situation, the British and Americans who were severely beaten by the Japanese and beaten all over the place stopped laughing at the Chinese army.

They found that their troops were not even as good as the Chinese army. It was from the Pacific War that Britain and the United States sincerely cooperated with the Chinese they had looked down upon before. Tang Qiuli knew the truth. The Americans were kicked out of the Philippines and ran to Australia Avoiding the limelight, the British fled all the way west, and finally ran to India to hide. [

Therefore, it is not surprising that Chutian's special operations detachment and the reconnaissance troops of various corps beat the British army to the point of bleeding, and lost troops. According to the effect of overseas operations in Southeast Asia, Tang Qiuli roughly judged that It can be seen that the current embarrassment of the British cannot be overcome, and it is time to negotiate again.

However, Tang Qiuli made up his mind that if the British don't come to heavyweights and don't pay enough bargaining chips, don't let yourself give up. Moreover, staying in the existing area for the independent division is a prerequisite for negotiations. Tang Qiuli The real intention is not to destroy the British and American troops.

Instead, let them see how powerful the Independent Division is. At that time, when the British and Americans can't hold on in the face of the Japanese fierce attack, they will come to ask for help. After they have enough chips, it will be a matter of course. Enter Southeast Asia, participate in the battle against the Japanese army, and then develop your own strategic intentions.

Therefore, Tang Qiuli is right

All combat groups outside the country issued a new order: "All ministries, after receiving the order from the division headquarters, suspend the attack on the British army. We can use small-scale battles to show our attitude." Tang Qiuli's meaning is very clear. The British were cornered.

Then, Chutian and the six special warfare detachments were gathered together to form an attack column. Colonel Chutian, the leader of the special warfare detachment, served as the column leader. In the Savage Mountains with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, there is also the real enemy of the independent division. and feud.
