: Even 40,000 pigs! The legion couldn’t catch them all in three days!

The Legion’s offensive was very rapid.

It only took three days from the launch of the offensive to the main force of the Burmese Army’s eastern theater that invaded the main urban area of Taunggyi City and surrounded Hobang County.

At this time, the Myanmar Army General Staff had not yet reacted, or in other words, the Myanmar military government, which had just been subjected to continuous air strikes by the Army Corps, wanted to mobilize troops, but could not keep up with the Army Corps’ actions.

The Myanmar National Defense Force has a total of 450,000 army troops. Excluding the 141st Division that was annihilated in Kengtung and the mutinous troops in the Northern Military Region and Southwest Military Region, there are only about 380,000 troops.

Among the thirty-eight armies, there are 150,000 on the northern front, 70,000 on the southern front, and 70,000 on the eastern front. This means 290,000 army troops scattered throughout the country.

Coupled with the local troops stationed in various military regions, the only regular army units that the Myanmar National Defense Force can mobilize now are the “373” 11th Motorized Infantry Division, 12th Motorized Infantry Division, 20th Motorized Infantry Division, 1st Armored Division, 2nd The Armored Division and the First Artillery Division total about 50,000 people.

Although some time ago, Mindonglai issued a mobilization order to recruit 100,000 veterans and militiamen to form 12 light infantry divisions due to the rebellion against the Northern Military Region and the coalition government defense forces organized by Wen Junkai and Dulavasi.

As well as the national mobilization order issued after being attacked by the legion, recruiting 300,000 young men to join the army to protect their families and the country.

Not to mention the 300,000 young men to be recruited later, the recruitment has just begun, and the recruitment officials have even just set out from the capital Naypyidaw to inspect the recruitment situation in various places.

Even the 100,000 veterans and militiamen recruited previously have just completed their preliminary recruitment and are undergoing training in cities such as Naypyitaw, Meiktila, Mandalay, Yangon, etc., and even official designations have not been given.

Even these new units formed by veterans and militiamen need at least a month of training before they can be used as ‘line fillers’ to fill trenches on the frontline battlefield.

So when the General Staff Headquarters in Naypyidaw received a request for assistance telegram from the Eastern Theater Command in Taunggyi, the entire Burmese army generals in the General Staff Headquarters looked in disbelief.

Mindong Lai was furious in the command room.

“Five divisions! I gave Pakpe five full divisions! Not counting the 89th Division and the 90th Division, which are local divisions with low combat effectiveness, the 88th Motorized Infantry Division, the 3rd Armored Division, and the 3rd Artillery Division are The elite troops of the National Defense Force! Pakpe has at least 40,000 troops in his hands! It has only been a few days since the war started? And they are already besieged by the army in Hebang!”

In the command room of the underground fortress of the Burmese Army General Staff Headquarters, a group of senior Burmese Army generals lowered their heads and allowed Mindong to scold them.

“The 89th Division is stationed in Nansang County and Kelin County. It is the front line bordering the army. When it was attacked and completely wiped out, it can be said that it was a sneak attack by the enemy!”

“Then Taunggyi City is on a mountain plateau! No matter which direction you attack from, you have to go up the mountain! How did Pakpe lose such an important town as Taunggyi City?!”

“Even if there are 40,000 pigs! The army won’t be able to capture them all in three days!”

call! call!

After finishing a long speech, Mindong Lai gasped for breath.

Originally, the air in the underground fortress was a bit hot due to the influx of too many people, but now it even made him feel a little lack of oxygen.

After taking a few breaths to finally stabilize his beating heart, Min Donglai sat down on the chair, looked at the people standing in the room, and said, “Let’s talk about it. Regarding the war in Taunggyi, there are some What a good idea.”

Everyone looked at each other, and Chief of General Staff Mya Oo said: “According to the latest military information from the eastern theater, the enemy not only invaded the main urban area of Taunggyi City, but also airborne into Si Sheng County, killing Pak Pei’s 30,000 soldiers. The army is besieged in the Hebang area, and even if we want to withdraw now, it will be difficult to withdraw.”

“Marching in the dark will definitely be attacked by the legion’s air, let alone after daybreak.”

“So the opinion of the General Staff is to abandon Taunggyi, or even the entire eastern theater, and focus the defense on the Nongben Mountains. It is best to transfer two motorized infantry divisions from the northern front to go south to Meiktila to deploy defenses, and then from the south The battle line mobilized a motorized infantry division to enter Taungoo to set up defenses.”

Mrauk-U and several staff members started working in front of the map.

Once the legion takes Taunggyi and annihilates the remaining 30,000 troops in the eastern theater, there will be only a straight line distance of more than 160 kilometers from the capital Naypyitaw, separated only by the Nongben Mountains.

From southern Shan State, there are three ways to cross the Nongben Mountains and enter the plains of central Myanmar.

One is from Taunggyi City to Meiktila City, the other is from the south of Taunggyi City via Hindagon to Naypyidaw, and the last one is from Sai Sheng into Kayah State, crossing the Nongben Mountains and arriving at Taungoo. .

There are also two roads leading to Mandalay in Northern Shan State, but most cities in Northern Shan State are still under the control of the Myanmar Army.

Moreover, Mandalay City is the logistics center of the Northern Front. There is a local division and a motorized infantry division as reserves. These two divisions can be ordered to support Meiktila, and then two motorized infantry divisions can be deployed from the front to station in Mandalay. .

Cooperate with the troops from Naoqiu, Lashio and other places to form a line of defense.

The southern front mobilized a motorized infantry division into Taungoo to defend the army from Kayah State.

As for the active Kayaya guerrillas in Kayah State, they can no longer control that much. All the main forces in the eastern theater were lost in the Battle of Taunggyi. Kayaya State, located in the southern part of the Shan State Plateau, is completely undefendable. , can only retreat into the Nongben Mountains.

The capital Naypyitaw has a mobile force of 50,000 troops, which can support the Meiktila and Toungoo defense lines at any time.

Mindonglai looked at the plan drawn up by the staff, frowned and said, “What if the legion launches an airborne operation against Naypyidaw?”

Mindong Lai’s words silenced all the senior generals of the Burmese army, including Mrauk U.

Before being attacked by the legions, they never thought that one day they would be attacked by separatist warlords.

The Myanmar Army has always had relatively good relations with neighboring countries. It only occasionally has territorial differences with Tianzhu, but these are limited to small-scale regional conflicts.

The Myanmar Air Force has always suppressed anti-government armed forces and separatist warlords internally, and it has always been them who beat others.

As a result, they are now being attacked by the Legion. The casualties in the capital Naypyitaw have not yet been calculated. Air force bases across the country have been basically scrapped. Hundreds of 2.5 hundred fighter planes of various types have been bombed, especially the more than 70 fixed-wing fighters. Almost annihilated.

Only some spare fighter planes were not attacked.

Now the Corps has conducted airborne operations in the Battle of Taunggyi, and the Eastern Theater Command reported that the Corps also airborne more than a dozen heavy tanks.

All kinds of incredible signs make people wonder what kind of force is behind the Legion that can support such a large-scale airborne landing.

The first suspected target was that the Dragon Kingdom was behind it, just like they supported the Burmese United Army.

But the military information sent back from the eastern theater is that the enemy’s main ground forces are M1A2 main battle tanks and light tanks that look particularly similar to the M8.

The air raid on Taunggyi was carried out by A-6 attack aircraft and a suspected C-17 large transport aircraft.

These are all pure American equipment! .
