Chapter 961: The First Phase of the Battle Ends
An airship slowly landed at an airfield off the coast of Siam, south of Bangkok and home to the headquarters of the Samurai Army. Fujita, Kenji and others, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time, saw Li Ming and Gao Jianguo getting down from the airship pod, and hurriedly walked up and bowed to Temo one after another.
Fujita shouted loudly: "Welcome to the headquarters of the samurai army group with the commander and the second marshal!" ”
Gao Jianguo laughed and said, "Get up...... Get up...... Our Military Commission does not want to ...... this set"
"Hi...... Hi ......"
Fujita and the others listened to Gao Jianguo's words and raised their heads one after another.
Gao Jianguo walked up, patted Fujita on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Old Teng, this battle of the Indochina Peninsula was fought very well, and the troops of the Death Army are all good......
Fujita and the generals of the various daring units of the samurai group army, after listening to Gao Jianguo's words, bowed deeply again, and shouted loudly in unison: "I am willing to die for the Far East, and I wish the Far East a long military fortune!" ”
They burst into tears one by one, and their hearts were also extremely excited. For a samurai like them, this is the highest honor. To be born in an era of war, to be loyal to such a powerful lord, they have nothing more to ask for in this life.
Gao Jianguo and Li Ming sat in the war room of the headquarters of the samurai army and listened to the reports of Fujita and Ken'er and others. In the past ten days, the samurai army has basically controlled all densely populated and prosperous areas of the Indochina Peninsula, captured almost all cities, and annihilated all formed armies.
At present, the major cities are handed over to several overseas divisions that have landed subsequently, and other towns and districts are also handed over to the armed police force. All the main forces have been deployed in various places, preparing for the second phase of the campaign on the Indochina Peninsula, that is, the law and order sweep operation.
Nearly 200,000 troops of the Death Army will be battalions. With the cooperation of the theater airboat units, they went deep into various areas of the Indochina Peninsula to carry out a large-scale sweep against the remnants of the remnants of the armed forces of various countries who had fled into the mountains and tropical jungles, and thoroughly wiped out the Indochina Peninsula.
Gao Jianguo listened to Fujita's report, stood up and said in a deep voice: "The first stage of the Indochina Peninsula's campaign. The samurai army fought well, and the units resolutely carried out the orders and perfectly implemented the plan we had made before the war. In particular, I would like to commend the assault troops of the various corps, who overcame many difficulties, went deep into the enemy's territory alone, controlled the target area in the shortest possible time, and made a great contribution to the victory of the first phase of the campaign.
After this campaign, our military commission will be dedicated to the samurai army. A grand ceremony was held to commend the troops and individuals who had performed well in this campaign. All the battle heroes and meritorious troops will go to Liaodong to be reviewed by the board of directors together with Fujita, the commander of the Death Army. I hope that all units of the Death Warriors will continue to work hard and fight bravely in the next battles. Strive for bigger wins. ”
Fujita and a group of little devils listened to Gao Jianguo's words, and they couldn't help themselves with excitement. What they want most in this life is to get all kinds of honors. Of course, the Military Commission knows about them, and often engages in some such activities against the Death Dare Military Headquarters, and each time it is very grand.
Although there are many such activities every year, the Death Army troops still enjoy it, and they are very excited every time they participate in these activities. Decades later, at the time of every National Day parade. A group of veterans wearing a medal on their chests can be seen on the viewing platform.
Although their average height is only more than 1.5 meters, they are very respected by everyone. The units of the Death Dare Army participated in all the battles of the Military Commission except for the Central Plains, and they were the most dangerous and arduous assault troops, which made great contributions to the Far Eastern Company.
Li Ming also stood up and said in a deep voice: "Although the Death Army unit performed well in the first stage of the campaign. But the next second phase of the campaign is the most severe test. The mountainous and tropical rainforest areas of the Indochina Peninsula have an extremely harsh natural environment, and various units will face tremendous difficulties in going deep into these areas to carry out law and order sweeping operations.
Although everyone had been trained in the tropics for several months before the war, they still had to be cautious in the face of the harsh environment of an unfamiliar battlefield. When encountering a situation of non-combat attrition, all units should promptly receive medical treatment, and if they are seriously ill, they should find a way to transport them out of the theater and send them to the rear for treatment.
The enemy you are facing is an indigenous native of Indochina, who is extremely familiar with the local environment and can make full use of various environments to carry out sneak attacks on you. When civilians are encountered in a war zone, if conditions permit, it is necessary to find a way to send them out of the mountains and hand them over to the management of the armed police force. Of course, in the event of resistance, it will be resolutely eliminated. ”
"Hi...... Hi ......"
Fujita and a group of devils from various units of the Death Army heard this, and hurriedly bowed and agreed. But they all have their own ideas in their hearts, in that environment, of course, it is better to kill everything, anyway, the eldest marshal and the second marshal did not give a clear order, they can do it according to the actual situation.
In a battlefield with a complex environment, the actual situation is that the less burdensome the better, and you can't take care of your own people, how can you have the leisure to care about the life and death of others, even in the first phase of the battle on the Indochina Peninsula, 200,000 officers and soldiers who dare to die, that person has few lives in his hands. Many butcher troops, entire villages and towns, local civilians, were slaughtered by them, and dozens of lives were lost in each person's hands.
The Central Military Commission is very familiar with the situation in the first phase of the Indochina Campaign. Several overseas divisions that landed later also reported to the Military Commission that most of them were born as ruffians in the Ming Dynasty, and they had never done anything less than to kill good people and harm the people, but even these soldiers and ruffians who had done all kinds of evil in the past could not stand it.
One can imagine how brutal the death army units were in various parts of the Indochina Peninsula. Because the theater of the first phase of the campaign was a densely populated and prosperous area, the daredevils committed many massacres in the theater.
It is estimated that in the first phase alone, hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of civilians were directly slaughtered, and several times as many civilians died as a result of starvation, fire, drowning, disease and other causes.
However, at the very beginning of the Indochina Campaign, the Far Eastern Military Commission had already handed over the command of the campaign to the command of the Samurai Army. Although Gao Jianguo and Li Ming also sent telegrams several times to ask Fujii to pay attention to the military discipline on the battlefield, the war had already reached this point and had no effect at all.
The military discipline of the troops of the Death Dare Army is very good, there has not been a single case of forcible rape, embezzlement of spoils of war, or unfavorable combat on the battlefield, and the order on the battlefield is extremely stable, and in many cases the killing is the collective behavior of the entire formed troops. And in many cases, the killing of civilians and the killing of enemies on the battlefield often cannot be screened after the war. (To be continued.) )
