…………………………………………
Since the main force of the Chinese navy moved south, the situation in the entire Bohai Sea region has been relatively tense, and the appearance of the Japanese navy from time to time has made China's sea more tense. In order to ensure the security of the Bohai Bay, the Chinese government had to adopt the old method of strengthening the forces on the Sino-North Korean border and putting pressure on the Japanese and Korean forces. This method is too old for Japan, but it still works well.
The DPRK army was overwhelmed by the National Defense Forces for the past two years, but after the strength of the DPRK army came up, the commander also changed, and the lost confidence of the DPRK army was restored. The commander of the DPRK army even has the intention of fighting with China to test the combat effectiveness of the expanded DPRK army. However, after the news of the Chinese plane's dominance in the southwest reached Japan, it was the North Korean army that shook the most. What made the North Korean military even more depressed was that not long after the news came, two Chinese planes appeared in the sky over North Korea. These two planes, embroidered with the Golden Dragon, recklessly entered the airspace of the DPRK and conducted aerial reconnaissance of the area where the Japanese and Korean troops were deployed. Japan urgently dispatched four planes and rushed directly at the two Chinese planes, intending to shoot them down.
However, this air battle that leaked in front of the Korean army made the Japanese and Korean troops extremely discouraged. Although China has only dispatched two aircraft, it is an advanced fighter with advanced performance, and although Japan's four old planes seem to be very dynamic and aggressive, they are far behind Chinese aircraft in terms of flight speed and weapons. After World War I, although Japan attached great importance to aircraft, it was not too deep, and there were naturally advanced aircraft designs in Japan, but because of financial problems, they were not translated into actual weapons. After the exposure of Chinese fighters, Japan strengthened the development and production of aircraft. But in just half a month, where can an aircraft be produced that can be compared with China. Therefore, this air battle is destined to be asymmetrical.
The situation in North Korea has become extremely tense because of the appearance of Chinese planes, and the appearance of Chinese bombers has brought this tension to a climax. Although the command of the DPRK military felt extremely humiliated, it had to send electricity to the country. I hope the empire will take this matter seriously.
The performance of the North Korean army made the Japanese military department helpless, but it had to pay attention to the threat of Chinese aircraft. Eventually, Japan's maritime operations were aborted. This time the Japanese navy not only did not reap the benefits, but on the contrary, it lost four planes and deepened the contradictions between the Japanese army and navy.
Later, Britain and Japan came into contact with each other, and Japan saw the hope of solving China, and the navy was very excited, because both the emperor and the military department agreed to let the Japanese navy intervene to solve the problem of the Chinese navy -- as for the land attack, Japan still lacked confidence. Regarding this matter, the British minister directly stated that the land attack was handed over to the land army of the British Empire, and Japan only needed to solve the Chinese navy. With the promise of Britain, the Japanese navy was shocked and could not wait to come to Chinese waters to provoke.
The British also have their own calculations, and once Japan and China use force, a large part of the attention of the countries in the world will naturally shift to the north, after all, the contest between the two great powers in the Far East can change the pattern of the Far East. Moreover, Britain did not seek to destroy China from the beginning, but to make China compromise, if not to return to the situation before World War I, to lower tariffs and allow the industrial products of the British Empire to import into China. As the world's most populous country, China is a huge market in the heart of the United Kingdom, and China has a vast territory and rich resources. The plundering of resources was very helpful in restoring the strength of the British Empire.
But China's massive military deployment to Burma was unexpected by the British. The combat effectiveness shown by the squadron made the British troops stationed in Burma feel very difficult, and the indiscriminate bombing of Chinese bombers made the British army's combat effectiveness more than half of it at most. In this situation, the squadron became more and more courageous, and in a short period of time, northern Myanmar was occupied by the National Defense Forces. The Burmese divisions in the four garrisons were completely annihilated. The 9th Brigade of the British Army was routed and most of it was captured. Les. Brigadier General Frey escaped from the Wehrmacht encirclement with only three or four hundred men around him, taking advantage of the loopholes in the primeval jungle, and was even luckier enough to escape back to Yangon. …,
A mountainous area in northern Myanmar, it is known as Qingyun Mountain by the local Burmese people. I heard that this name was given by a Chinese during the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Acquisition means straight up, and Qingyun Mountain is a low but very long mountain range, which is separated from two terrains at its starting point. In the north is a plateau covered with primeval jungle, while in the south is a mountainous terrain. And the first line of defense of the British army chose here.
Cai Yi's temporary headquarters.
The staff is constructing a sand table based on the news from the scouts. With the movements of the staff officers, the topography of this area appeared on the sand table.
"General, according to reconnaissance, the main force of the British army is deployed on this Qingyun Mountain. And if we want to go south, we must pass through this Qingyun Mountain. The operational staff officer said.
"Is there any other way?" Cai asked as he looked at the nearby terrain.
"Elsewhere the terrain is complicated, and no one knows if they can pass through it except the locals. And elsewhere the mountains are steep, and our heavy weapons simply can't get through. The operational staff officer said.
"How many British troops are here?"
"About 50,000 people. are all concentrated on this Qingyun Mountain. The enemy's position is very tricky, and it may be very difficult to storm it. The operational staff officer said.
"Let the troops rest and recuperate, and launch a tentative attack tomorrow." Cai Yi thought for a while and said.
"Yes!"
"How's the field airfield in Biyun Mountain being built?"
"It's almost done. It's just that the planes haven't been transferred yet. The operational staff officer whispered.
"Urge the flying group to dispatch all the planes tomorrow, let the bombers carry sufficient ammunition, and plow the enemy's position twice tomorrow." During this time, Cai's group was observing the impact of aircraft bombing on the war. In order to overcome this shortcoming, Cai Yi personally ordered the field airfield to be built in Biyun Mountain, which not only expanded the flight radius of the aircraft, but also allowed the aircraft to flexibly travel to and from the airport, load ammunition and replenish fuel.
The next day, as soon as it was light, there was a buzzing motor in the northern sky, and it was very loud. One by one, the Wehrmacht soldiers looked at the sky in amazement. They are no strangers to Chinese aircraft, but it is the first time that such a big movement has been made today.
"Look, twenty-eight planes! Oh my God, all our planes are out of sortie? The sharp-eyed Wehrmacht soldier shouted excitedly.
"Yes, I heard that our flight group originally had thirty-six aircraft, but later lost eight of them, and only the current twenty-eight remained. It seems that today is really a big operation. ”
With the Wehrmacht soldiers talking, the flying group rushed into the sky above Qingyun Mountain. The reason why Qingyun Mountain is important is because it is the lowest mountain range in this mountainous area. Moreover, the mountains spread across the entire mountainous area, and compared to the steeper terrain around it, Brokeback Mountain is much easier to walk. Over time, this Brokeback Mountain became a transportation artery connecting the north and the south. The official road also walks from the top of the Brokeback Mountain, which makes its low position even more important.
Boom Boom!
Black bombs fell from the high-altitude bombers. The British position instantly turned into a sea of fire. A terrible howl came from the battlefield, and the terrible sound made people chill from afar.
The Wehrmacht swept through northern Burma, and bombers were not less involved, but this was the first time that such a large-scale bombing had been carried out today.
Da-da-da-da!
The sound of crane guns sounded on the ground, and tongues of blazing fire soared into the sky, forming a dense network of firepower in the air. The Chinese planes immediately pulled up and dodged the blows of enemy fire.
Twenty-eight planes not only brought high-intensity fire attacks, but also greatly increased the probability of the planes being hit. …,
Airplanes......!
A slightly slower plane was hit by ground fire, black smoke rose from the fuselage, and the plane rushed uncontrollably towards the mountain peak on one side. Faced with this situation, the pilot had to parachute to escape.
When the flight group was established, there was a clear internal stipulation: In the event that a plane was hit, the pilot, after determining that he was unable to save it, should choose to parachute as soon as possible to ensure the safety of his own life. For China's weak air force, every qualified pilot is a valuable asset, and flight cloud training is quite demanding. China is a country with a large population, but there are very few high-end talents who are suitable for training pilots. Therefore, for the sake of protecting talents, the flight brigade will have this provision. After all, the aircraft can be rebuilt without it, and with the ability of the aircraft to be mass-produced, it will not take much time at all, and if a person dies, it is not possible to train new qualified pilots overnight. And for China right now, time is of the essence.
As the planes continued to drop explosives, the British positions were bombed into a mess, and the originally dense anti-aircraft fire became less and less.
When the Chinese plane dropped the last shell. When he shook his wings and was about to return home, Cai launched the order to attack.
The 9th Division of the Wehrmacht assumed the main attack. The 5th and 13th divisions were responsible for attacking the flanks.
The Wehrmacht rushed into the British positions like a tidal wave.
Bang Bang Bang!
Although the British counterattack was messy, the firepower was still quite strong. In an instant, the momentum of the Wehrmacht's attack was suppressed.
Rumble!
The Wehrmacht artillery opened fire, plowed the land that had been bombed by the planes, and knocked out some of the carefully constructed firepower of the British troops, and the carefully prepared defensive line of the British troops was completely paralyzed by the superior firepower of the Wehrmacht. There was a massive rout of the British soldiers, and the originally reasonable amplifier positions were useless
Kill!
Amid the strong shouts of killing, the Wehrmacht soldiers rushed up to Qingyun Mountain and occupied this position, and the British soldiers who had no time to escape could only hand over their weapons and obediently enter the Wehrmacht prisoner camp.
