Cam Ranh Bay is located on the eastern coast of the Champa Kingdom. The bay is 17 kilometers inland, and is surrounded by mountains about 400 meters high. The inner harbor of Cam Ranh covers an area of 60 square kilometers, the mouth of the bay is only 1,300 meters wide, the outer harbor is Pingba, the water depth is 10-22 meters, the width of the mouth of the bay is about 4,000 meters, and the water depth outside the mouth is more than 30 meters.

Cam Ranh Bay is considered one of the best deep-water ports in the world, and it is strategically important because it is located on an important waterway connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean.

After the Liaodong rebels occupied the Champa State, the Far East Company also transformed Cam Ranh Bay into a military base of the Far East Company's Admiralty in accordance with the agreement signed with Kong Youde and others, with a total area of about 100 square kilometers.

Far Eastern Group attaches great importance to the construction of Cam Ranh Bay, not only investing a lot of resources to carry out large-scale construction of Cam Ranh Bay's infrastructure, but also developing the land around Cam Ranh Bay.

The inner and outer harbour terminals of Cam Ranh Bay were constructed, and the Cam Ranh Bay base, airport and a storage area for the logistics branch were established. The War Department of the Central Military Commission has deployed the strength of an overseas battalion here, and last year it also resettled two detachments of displaced people here, and reclaimed nearly 10,000 mu of cultivated land near Cam Ranh Bay. The Admiralty has a guerrilla fleet stationed all year round, mainly patrolling the South China Sea, the Gulf of Siam and other waters.

Because the port conditions here are excellent and the various facilities are relatively perfect, the fleets of the Far Eastern Admiralty often rest and replenish here.

Since the beginning of this year, a large number of Far Eastern engineering units have come here, and with the assistance of farmers from two nearby detachments, they have carried out a large-scale expansion of the base's warehouses and facilities, especially the storage area, which has expanded several times more than in the past.

Ships continue to sail into the inner harbor of Cam Ranh Bay. A large number of supplies were unloaded in the storage area of Cam Ranh Bay. There are also hundreds of offshore steam deck barges that have taken to Cam Ranh Bay, anchored here in the outer harbor.

Since the Far Eastern Army took over the Champa State, the Far Eastern Admiralty has increased its transportation efforts, and countless officers and soldiers of the Death Army have also disembarked here, and the entire Cam Ranh Bay has still become a huge military camp.

At the same time. The ports of Phan Thiet, Van Li, Van Lang and Tui Hoa on the coast of Champa are also crowded with thousands of sails every day, with tents on the shores and beaches, and steam deck barges on the shore and inland rivers parked on the sea.

In the military camps on the beachhead along the coast of the Champa state, all kinds of supplies are piled up. A large number of brave officers and men wearing wooden core helmets, khaki half-sleeved field jackets and breeches, and high lace-up boots climbed down from the jute ropes on both sides of the sailboat, boarded small boats, and rowed to the beachhead to land.

All the officers and men of the brave army units who participated in the war have now completed wartime resupply. Because the battlefield environment in Indochina is complex. The officers and men were equipped with more ammunition, field rations, medicines, and first-aid kits than in the past.

Although the Indochina Campaign Command chose to launch an offensive at the end of the year, the climate in the mountainous areas of the Indochina Peninsula was still harsh, with hot weather, miasma, and frequent torrential rains and torrential floods. There are also mosquito bites, plague and malaria epidemics are very serious, and it is said that there is a mountain leech that can even bite people to death.

In many areas, there are waist-deep grass. The depths of the jungle are full of thorns and weeds, making it very difficult to walk. It is also necessary to prevent the attack of poisonous snakes at all times. The bite of a poisonous insect.

Even if the Far Eastern Army's daredevils underwent several months of adaptive training before the war, facing the tropical jungles in unfamiliar areas, they would still cause large-scale non-combat attrition, and even non-combat deaths would occur from time to time.

It is different from the Far Eastern Army that came to your land for the first time. The local natives are very adaptable to this environment, they can run barefoot in the tropical jungle, and they are good at taking advantage of the harsh environment of the local environment to fight.

At that time, the U.S. military suffered a lot in Vietnam, even with the support of countless aircraft and artillery, and used a large number of helicopters to carry out airborne operations. However, it was still often attacked by the North Vietnamese troops at that time, and it was repeatedly successful.

Later, during the self-defense counterattack, our army also suffered a lot in the jungles of Vietnam, especially in the early days of the war, and faced with the harsh tropical rainforest, it did encounter great difficulties.

Therefore, in this Indochina Campaign, the Military Commission mobilized the Samurai Army as the main force to participate in the war, and only a few overseas divisions were in the coastal areas as reserves in the theater just in case.

There are so many little devils, you don't need to use them at this time, anyway, no matter how many deaths, the Military Commission will not feel distressed. 200,000 troops of the Death Army, can't they defeat the Indochina Peninsula? Even if they die, some of them are supplemented by Japanese foreign workers.

This was also the real purpose of the Military Commission's expansion of the Death Army, and in the future, in Australia, New Zealand, the American continent, the African continent, and other regions, the Japanese Death Army units will still be the main force of the Far East Army.

At this time, the population of Annam was about 2 million people, Siam was about the same, and the Lancang Kingdom, the Kingdom of Chenla Cambodia and Burma had even smaller populations. It is estimated that the population of the entire Indochina Peninsula is less than 10 million, and it is concentrated in a few delta plain grain-producing areas and several prosperous areas of national capitals in the Indochina Peninsula.

The battle plan drawn up by the Far Eastern Army was to carry out surprise attacks on these areas. In particular, the Ayutthaya dynasty of Siam, Vientiane in the Lancang Kingdom, Ava in Burma, Phnom Penh in Chenla Cambodia, and the coastal areas of Thang Long and Hue in Annam.

Concentrate the superior forces of the samurai army and land in the coastal areas of the Indochina Peninsula with lightning speed, or take inland steam-deck barges to launch a fierce attack deep into the Indochina Peninsula along several major rivers in the Indochina Peninsula, such as the Salween River, the Chao Paiye River, the Irrawaddy River, the Chao Phraya River, the Mekong River, and the Red River. With the support of the Theater Airship Wing, quickly defeat the elite and upper ruling classes of each country, and then gradually take control of the rest of Indochina.

Although many of the units were newly trained, the cadres and non-commissioned officers were the foundation laid by the starting units of the Far Eastern Death Army, and the training was extremely cruel in peacetime, and even during the period of intensive training for new recruits, there were many casualties and suicides.

They are like a group of beasts in a cage, and once they open the cage, they can instantly release extremely violent emotions.

The attack of the Death Army is incomparably crazy, and the attack is known for being fast, ruthless, and fierce, and the backbone of the non-commissioned officers and cadres of the assault force are holding a katana to rush to the front of the unit whenever the attack is launched, which is also a tradition that Fujita, the commander of the Death Army, took the lead in cultivating in those years.

Therefore, the brave army units have been extremely brave in all the battles, from the main general to the ordinary soldiers, they dare not ignore the battle, they do not get out of the line of fire with minor injuries, and the blood of the soldiers who do not kill is like a river, and the battle will never end. (To be continued.) )
