Age of Conquest Reborn

The idea of ​​General Ito Genzaburo, the commander-in-chief of Japan's Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force, is not incorrect. In the absence of a large number of heavy artillery to form the backbone of the battle's firepower, it is a practical method to use aircraft to destroy a large number of enemy armored forces.

More importantly, after the outer trenches surrounding Yangon lost their role in blocking the tanks of the ** Division, the Japanese army's peripheral defense line was severely threatened. On the peripheral defense line, the ** Division's attack strength was not consumed as much as possible.

When the attack energy is exhausted, entering the street fighting stage prematurely will be extremely detrimental to future urban defense operations.

In a word, Tang Qiuli suddenly took action against Yangon, disrupting Ito's planned steps. The battle process was not proceeding as he had imagined. Therefore, he wanted to dispatch the military air force to gain this buffer time for the Japanese army and also to fight against the enemy.

Get rid of the ** Division tank unit, which is the most powerful force against the Imperial Army soldiers.

Ito did not wait anxiously for long. Lieutenant General Nomura quickly called back, but the content almost made the Commander-in-Chief angry. "Order received, in view of the newly arrived fighter wing and bomber wing at Yulin base,

We are not fully prepared. I believe that it is not appropriate for the air force to go into battle immediately. Please forgive me, Commander-in-Chief."

Ito tore up Nomura's telegram. This bastard dared to disobey my order and miss this rare opportunity. It is impossible to find such a fighter plane. Did Nomura think that the tanks of the Japanese Army would be in order?

Are they lined up together, waiting for your plane to blow up? Moreover, according to reports from the frontline troops, the attack formation of the tanks of the ** division is extremely dense.

Ito angrily ordered the confidential staff to "give the order to Commander Nomura of the Japan Dispatch Army Aviation Force again. As the Commander-in-Chief of the Japan Dispatch Army, I ordered that the aviation force must immediately rush to the Yangon battlefield to destroy the armored cluster of the ** Division."

If you disobey military orders, I will take the most severe punishment against Nomura."

Ito's anger reached an extreme level. If Nomura was in Yangon, the commander-in-chief who was so angry might cut off Nomura's head, and Lieutenant General Nomura would unfortunately become the Emperor of Japan.

Jun, the first senior officer whose head was beheaded by his superiors. In fact, this was not because Lieutenant General Nomura intentionally disobeyed military orders or used excuses to delay. Or he was contemptuous of Ito's authority.

In fact, it took only about two days for the aircraft fleet supported by Taiwan's dispatched troops to arrive at the Yulin Aviation Base on Hainan Island because Ito was not very familiar with aviation operations, which involved clarifying the meteorological conditions in the theater and becoming familiar with the route.

A series of complex preparations include aircraft fleet formation drills, ground and air communication, etc.

Ito's idea was very simple. The plane went up to the sky and he just threw bombs vigorously. But Nomura was an expert. After receiving the second stern order from Commander-in-Chief Ito, Nomura could only smile bitterly and had to dispatch bombers and fighter jets.

Judging from Commander-in-Chief Ito's tone, if he doesn't carry out the order, he may lose his head.

Nomura ordered: "Tsinmu Bomber Wing dispatched two groups of bombers to the Yangon airspace to carry out bombing missions. Guangqi Fighter Wing dispatched one group of fighter jets to be responsible for escorting. The Operations Department immediately contacted Yangon

Contact the General Headquarters and request them to provide ground and air contact and provide instructions for bombing targets."

Colonel Ryusuke, the chief of operations of the Air Force, had to remind: "Commander, the current situation of our Air Force makes it impossible to carry out lift-off missions. Why don't you explain it to the Commander-in-Chief and explain the actual situation?"

Nomura smiled bitterly, "Explanation? Given Commander-in-Chief Ito's current state, what explanation will he listen to? I'm afraid that all his explanations will be regarded by him as an excuse to disobey military orders." But can he say these words to his subordinates?

, Nomura looked at his chief of operations and said only one sentence, "Ryusuke-kun, execute the order!"

Nomura's orders to Ito were not without discount. He only sent two groups of bombers and one group of fighters. Two painful lessons over the South China Sea wiped out the entire aviation fleet's assets, leaving Nomura to remember

Having recognized the power of the ** Division Air Force, he definitely did not dare to take it lightly, especially when the aircraft had just been replenished and had not yet formed combat capabilities.

Ito received a call back from Nomura again. This time, he was very satisfied. He exhaled heavily through his nose and thought to himself: "Nomura is such a boring guy. If he is satisfied with being fully prepared, why should he execute the order? It is clearly contempt.

I, as the commander-in-chief, have the authority to settle accounts with Nomura after the Rangoon battle is over." In Ito's heart, Nomura was already on the list of those who were not his confidants.

After dealing with the dispatched military air force, Ito's attention turned to the battlefield outside Yangon. He picked up the phone and "called Chief of Staff Kawashima." Maybe the operator was a fool or a novice and didn't notice the signal.

He came from the General Headquarters and replied without thinking: "Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, is busy with military affairs and has no time. Please call back in five hours!"

After saying "Bata" and cutting off the line, Ito was stunned and didn't react for a while. When he woke up and felt the smell, his hands and feet were so angry that his hands and feet were cold and his mouth was burnt and dry. He called the phone again, but before the operator could answer him, he thundered

He roared angrily: "Baga! I am Commander-in-Chief Ito. You are working hard to do your job. Please pick up Kawashima!"

This time, Kawashima was connected very quickly. Probably, as soon as the commander-in-chief’s name was announced, the operator was so scared that he peed his pants. “Kawashima-kun, how is the situation on the front line? The Burmese volunteers are in place.

No?" Ito asked anxiously.

Kawashima's voice was very nervous, "Commander-in-Chief, the situation is very bad. The tanks of the ** Division have broken through our peripheral positions in many places. However, for some reason, Tang Qiuli's troops did not continue to advance towards the city.

, it is just to clear out our army’s firepower points and bunkers in the occupied area and expand the breakthrough point.”

Kawashima doesn't understand, but Ito understands. "Kawashima-kun, Tang Qiuli is cleaning up the periphery, consuming as much of the imperial army's effective strength as possible in areas that are conducive to tanks exerting their power, so as to reduce resistance for future street battles. You

We must immediately put the Burmese volunteers into battle. Remember, this is our best opportunity to destroy the tanks of the ** Division. We order the forward troops to hold on for another three to four hours. The aviation force will send bombers to join the Yangon battlefield.

"

Putting down the phone, Ito felt depressed. What happened today? Everything was not going well. First, he had a fight with that guy from Nomura, and then, he was beaten to a pulp by an operator. ***,

I'm so angry that I have to find a place to vent. Otherwise, Your Excellency, the majestic Commander-in-Chief, will you get sick from the frustration?

"Order the military police to immediately arrest the operator in the telecommunications room and execute him," Ito ordered. The combat staff who carried out the order felt very uncomfortable. Why are you, a dignified army general, having trouble with a small operator?

?Is it worth it? Doesn’t this force us, junior officers, to despise you?

The fighting situation outside Yangon, as Kawashima saw, the tanks of the ** Division had already broken through many Japanese positions, but they did not develop in depth. Instead, they expanded the breakthrough, one shot at a time, slowly and slowly.

Knock down the Japanese army's bunkers, bunkers, and firepower points, and make the Japanese army's outer positions burst into flames.

The infantry accompanying the tank attack are quite depressed. The main work has been done by the tank soldiers. We are just hiding behind the tanks like this? It's like picking up leftovers. It's not enough to clean up a few little devils who slipped through the net! Look at it.

The city of Yangon is ahead, but I don’t know why, but the commander just didn’t give the order to attack in depth. He looked at it with greedy eyes and swallowed his saliva!

For the tank soldiers of the ** Division, there is no easier battle than this. There is no heavy artillery or the threat of anti-tank weapons. Those Japanese soldiers who are covered with grenades, bursting with Bushido spirit, and howling and rushing towards them, have not waited.

The one in front of me was beaten to the ground by the infantry sniper accompanying the attack.

The rifles and machine guns in the hands of the little devil are almost like scratching the itch of a tank. After knocking on those bunkers for a while, there are not many left. There are more than a dozen tanks, and not even one has a turn. The tank soldiers also feel that,

This battle was not a satisfying one. If nothing else, it was the building that was spitting out flames, and the little Japanese machine gunners who were fighting vigorously. As soon as the tank throttled up, a dozen rounds of artillery shells were sent in, and it could be completed in three to five minutes.

After finishing the work, why don't you just wander around in the same place?

At the forward headquarters, Feng Jiwu, who was commanding the attack, held up his binoculars and stared at the battlefield situation intently. The division commander had an order to knock out the one who was about to carry out a suicide attack. What kind of Burmese volunteer team? God knows what this thing is.

More fierce than the little devil?

However, Feng Jiwu did not take it lightly. Although the commander's order was not stated clearly, he could guess from the words "suicide attack, a trick played by the little devils. Change the soup without changing the medicine to prevent them from getting close."

That’s the tank.”

At this time, the high-altitude observation post reported: "Regiment headquarters, observation post No. 1 reported that a large number of armed troops appeared about two kilometers away from our tank attack column and were advancing towards our tank unit in separate ways!"

Feng Jiwu said without raising his head: "Quickly find out the identity of the enemy, their military uniforms, and the style of their military flags!" The director of operations conveyed Feng Jiwu's orders to various observation posts. Immediately, the message came back: "Wearing Japanese military uniforms, the military flags are

A style I’ve never seen before.”

Feng Jiwu muttered, "This is probably the Burmese volunteer team, right?" Then he ordered: "Order, all attacking tank units maintain their attack formation and retreat immediately. Be careful not to let these death-defying ghosts get too close.

Get close, accompany the attacking infantry, and kill these bastards." After that, he put down the telescope.

He no longer paid attention to the battlefield situation. He was really not interested in such a battle. The reason was simple: his opponent was too weak.
