Age of Conquest Reborn

It is not that Tang Qiuli has not considered encircling and completely annihilating the British and Indian troops in a favorable area in the Hukang River Valley west of Xinduo. However, there is an unavoidable natural factor that restricts his ideas. 1.

The Hukang River Valley is a long and narrow corridor, which is a fatal constraint for large corps operations. Huge forces cannot be deployed at one time, and armored assault forces such as tanks cannot be deployed too much at one time. Otherwise, with the British and Indian forces,

With the equipment and momentum the army had when it first invaded northern Myanmar, it would have been impossible for them to be blocked by the two regiments of Wen Rongcai from the border guard area in northern Myanmar for more than a day in Xiduo.

Tang Qiuli would not fight such a battle. Although he was able to kill all Alexander's troops in the end, the time, casualties, and energy invested were not cost-effective no matter how you calculated it.

Furthermore, with Xiduo falling into his hands, the door for the British and Indian troops to retreat westward has been completely closed. Tang Qiuli has a new plan to use Alexander's remnant army as bait to attract other troops in India.

The British and Indian troops came to the rescue and wiped out all the British troops stationed in India in the India-Myanmar border area, clearing obstacles in advance for the next step into East India and East Pakistan.

Moreover, the fleet that has entered the Andaman Sea is waiting for orders. Tang Qiuli does not hope that when the Marine Corps approaches southern India, the British still have the ability to counterattack. According to Tang Qiuli's understanding, this is a typical battle

The battlefield of the encirclement and reinforcement campaign was in the Xido area.

In this way, Xiduo's troops will fight on two fronts, fighting separately against Alexander's remnants and the British and Indian troops from India. Such a heavy task is not something that three brigades can bear. This is also

Tang Qiuli ordered the eight brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps, which had completed the task of annihilating the enemy, to speed up the penetration. The main reason why the directly affiliated corps slowed down the pursuit speed was the main reason.

With Tang Qiuli's rich command experience, it was impossible for Alexander's remaining 80,000 people to remain unscathed and vigorously attack Xiduo. With sluggishness, exhaustion, and uninterrupted attacks, Alexander's remaining army in Xiduo must be attacked.

At the end of the war, this task was handed over to Le Yiqin, commander of the Southern Flying Group of the ** Division Aviation Force.

At about 5 o'clock in the morning on April 30, in Myitkyina, the commander of the Northern Myanmar Base of the Southern Flying Group of the ** Division Air Force, Major General Le Yiqin, was holding a pre-war military meeting.

The conference room was filled with smoke. The meeting had been going on for some time. Colonel Dong Ningxuan, the flight group chief of staff who was responsible for commanding the transport aircraft formation and airlifting equipment, ammunition and supplies for the Xiduo troops, was about to report the situation.

Le Yiqin immediately interrupted him and said: "Chief of Staff, don't bring your work to the meeting. Anyway, we will transport whatever the logistics department prepares. As for how to transport it, that's up to you.

Regarding the chief of staff matter, I am not a scumbag. When we divided the work, we made it clear that you command the transport planes and I command the fighter planes and bombers. Don’t expect me to give you any advice!"

Dong Ningxuan became angry and said: "Commander, I am not competing with you for the command of fighter jets and bombers. I just want to report to you on the progress of the airdrop of supplies. Why are you nervous?"

Le Yiqin bared her teeth in embarrassment and said: "That's good, but you don't have to report it. You can just make your own decision. Are you the chief of staff? You still have some power. The division of labor is clear. Go ahead and do your work.

,Next, what will happen if there is no transport aircraft formation1,!"

The commanders of the bomber and fighter regiments who attended the meeting burst into laughter. Dong Ningxuan shook his head helplessly and said: "You are just afraid that I am here, so I will go and do some work to save you from being uneasy and thinking about me."

Like you’re trying to grab the command?”

Le Yiqin affectionately sent Chief of Staff Dong Ningxuan out of the door, then closed the door of the conference room and said: "That's it, I've coaxed the business thief away. Next, it's time to talk about our affairs.

It’s time!”

Le Yiqin pointed to the map of the Hukang River Valley and said: "There are no British fighter jets in the sky in northern Myanmar. There is no danger in our bombing mission this time. This time, the division commander did not limit our bombing location and intensity. From my understanding

That is, let go of your hands and feet. The bombers were divided into five formations and took off one after another to ensure uninterrupted bombing during the day. The fighter jets followed the bomber formations. On the one hand, they served as escort missions. On the other hand, they also participated in the attack on the British and Indians on the ground.

Soldier attack."

"In addition, squadrons with excellent flying skills were mobilized to form a night bombing formation. Whenever there was a little light on the ground in the airspace of the Hukang Valley, I would bomb them hard, causing the British and Indian soldiers to have no peace day and night. I also

Just a reminder, the bomber formation must pay attention to the air defense capabilities of the British and Indian forces. These guys are better than the little devils. Let’s not suffer. Okay, let’s start taking action immediately! I will take the first fighter formation and attack in the first wave!”

The commanders of the fighter regiment looked at each other, and the boss was unconvinced. How come the commander had corrupted the most important event? What could be done? Even the chief of staff was coaxed away. If he followed

The commander can argue for a few words, and maybe the task of leading the attack will fall on him, so everyone will not be fooled!

At 6:30 in the morning, nearly a thousand fighters and bombers at Myitkyina Field Airport were pushed out of the hangar. The first attack wave of fighters and bombers had already begun taxiing on the runway. The entire airport was blasted by huge engines.

Shrouded in roaring sounds.

Le Yiqin stepped into the fighter plane, touched the dashboard lovingly, and said to herself: "Old man, I have work to do again today. It's a pity that you have no opponent. You are destined to be lonely. There is nothing you can do about it.

, we can’t change it into a bomber, can we?”

In the earphones, the voice from the command tower came, "001, you can take off!" Le Yiqin pushed the accelerator, and after gliding for a distance, the fighter plane jumped lightly, facing the bright rising sun in northern Myanmar, and fired sharp arrows.

Generally, it shoots towards the sky full of glow.

The British and Indian soldiers who had rested in northern Myanmar for more than a day had obviously regained a lot of energy, but the fear in their eyes had not diminished at all. Everyone raised their hands in approval of Commander Alexander's order.

No one wants to stay in Xinduoduo. Although there is food and drink, it is too close to the Chinese people.

Maybe at some point, the Chinese soldiers will attack from behind. Whether he can still escape is unknown. The farther away from Mesikailing, a terrible place where hundreds of thousands of brothers are buried, the better. The commander's order.

, won the hearts of the people, and was thoroughly implemented. The soldiers even lined up in advance and waited to set off without waiting for the officers to urge them.

Of course, there are exceptions. The brigade that was ordered to stay in Shindo and was responsible for blocking the pursuit of the ** Division, from the brigade commander to the ordinary soldiers, all looked sad, looking at the troops that had gone away, while complaining about their bad luck, even though there were people lining up around them.

American 155 mm caliber howitzers, piled with boxes of shells.

But these stocky guys did not give the more than 7,000 British and Indian soldiers guarding the Third Brigade Simpson any sense of safety. Just now, they were as noisy as the new crowd in the market. In the blink of an eye, only a few of them were left.

Thousands of people, how can they be similar to abandoned orphans?

The brigade commander, Major General Vladimir, shouted fiercely and ordered officers at all levels to urge the soldiers to seize the time to build fortifications and artillery positions.

After the British and Indian soldiers started working, they immediately complained and cursed loudly. The artillerymen of the 1st Division of Major General Fisher, who had already become a prisoner of war, had no other reason. In order to capture Xinduo, the artillerymen took the suckers.

He used all his strength and kept slamming the cannonballs, blasting Xinduo which was covered with rocks, so that the empty soil and stone debris on the ground could cover his ankles.

Now that everything is fine, how can we build fortifications? In the whole of Xinduo, we can't even find a stone as big as a fist. We have no choice but to go to a place five or six kilometers away from Xinduo and laboriously carry the stones. Of course, the British soldiers

They will not do such hard work. The ones who do the hard work are Indian soldiers. As a result, the work efficiency of the Indian soldiers who are full of resentment can be imagined. 1.

The brigade commander, Major General Vladimir, had no confidence at all. After the Battle of Meskai Ridge, he knew very well that hundreds of thousands of people were not left in more than two hours.

In front of the artillery of the ** Division, there was nothing wrong with it. I'm afraid that when the ** Brigade started to attack, my own brigade could not hold out for half an hour.

Major General Vladimir, I still can't figure out why Chief of Staff Adams chose his own brigade. In terms of equipment and combat effectiveness, the local garrison force is barely second-rate, and it blocked the Chinese Army for more than three days.

Time, are you kidding me?

I was able to save my life from Mesi Kailing because I was lucky enough not to be the main force. I walked at the end of the marching column, right next to the baggage troops. Otherwise, a burst of artillery shells from the ** team destroyed Simpson's defense.

The third brigade also disappeared.

Obviously, when we arrived in Xinduo, our good luck ended. Chief of Staff Adams designated the troops to block the Japanese Army in Xinduo. This was obviously a death mission. There were more than 7,000 people and they blocked hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops.

Chief of Staff Adams, do you think that all the soldiers of the 3rd Brigade are gods of war?

The brigade commander, Major General Vladimir, thought angrily and couldn't help but envy the troops who continued to retreat. How good they were. In a few days, they would be able to return to a familiar place and no longer have to face the terrifying Chinese.

, he even planned to fire a few symbolic shots and then surrender once he found out that the enemy had appeared.

I can only think about it in my heart to fight desperately. Even if I have this plan, the soldiers under my command may rush to surrender to the Chinese without giving orders!

If Major General Vladimir knew that the troops he envied as they continued to retreat were currently enjoying the bombs raining down from the ** bombers, causing them to fall over and scream in agony, he would be glad that at least he could still

Have the power to choose to surrender.
