Chapter 816: Strategic Armageddon (9)
In the face of the ground offensive of the Chinese army, the Burmese Japanese army is most afraid of the tank group, especially the large-scale tank group, the Burmese Japanese army lacks anti-tank weapons, that is, there are few 37 mm battle defense guns, and many Japanese soldiers know that the 37 mm battle defense guns are seriously insufficient in front of the Chinese tanks.
There are no tanks, not to mention tanks, not even armored vehicles, the little devil Dazuo Wing Captain felt light, and his solemn face immediately relaxed.
They are on the defensive, and there are a large number of fortifications, although these fortifications have only been rebuilt in a temporary and hasty manner, but, in the face of a light infantry, the little devils feel that they can hold it completely.
On the entire position, there were a lot of little devils, a whole field infantry wing, and the little devil Dazuo put down his binoculars and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Your Excellency! If the Chinese troops on the opposite side dare to launch a large-scale attack, we will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on them. Next to him, a little devil Shaozo was obviously full of confidence, and before the soldiers started to attack, the little devil Shaozo's confidence was unprecedentedly expanded.
However, a large number of fighters on the opposite side had no intention of attacking at this time, and the fighters were waiting for the rocket artillery regiment of the heavy artillery brigade to open fire.
The rocket artillery regiment is about five or six kilometers away from the position of the little devils, separated by several small hills, and now the fighters of the rocket artillery regiment are ready for battle.
The rocket launcher vehicles are parked neatly, and the rocket launcher tubes on the cars are pointed obliquely at the positions of the little devils in the distance, and each rocket launcher is a 40-tube 200 mm caliber launcher.
Seeing that the fighters were ready, even the parameters were repeatedly calibrated. Everything was correct, the commander of the rocket artillery regiment looked at his watch, and when he saw that the time had come, he immediately shouted: "Prepare for launch!" Enter the countdown. ”
"10, 9, 8, 7 launch!"
With an order, dozens of rocket launchers began to fire at the same time, and a large number of rockets whistled out, emitting large sharp sounds. Continuous whistling. The scene was spectacular.
In the distance, Japanese positions.
Many little devils heard this sharp whistling sound, and also saw a large number of rockets flying in the sky, and saw such a scene. Many little devils trembled in their hearts.
Even the little devil Da Zuo Lian saw this large piece of rockets. Seeing so many rockets flying towards their positions. The little devil Dazuo's heart tightened, although he didn't know what it was, but. The little devil Dazuo felt that this was definitely a very powerful thing.
Soon, almost before the little devils had time to react, a large number of rockets were smashed down overwhelmingly, and there were no dead ends in the little devils' positions, and carpet explosions.
Dozens of rocket launchers fired at least 2,000 rockets of 200 mm caliber in just one or two minutes, which is not inferior to the power of 155 mm howitzers.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The explosion was very dense and spectacular, and the entire position of the little devils was almost completely covered, and the earth was flying all over the sky, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled.
Opposite, not far from the little devil position.
When a large number of soldiers saw such a spectacular artillery bombardment, two or three thousand rockets, all smashed into the position of the little devils in a short period of time, and many soldiers were surprised and immediately let out thunderous cheers.
The soldiers rarely saw such a spectacular scene, and everyone was a little shocked at first, but when they saw the little devil on the opposite side disappearing, the soldiers immediately cheered.
Soon, the rocket launcher was fired, and the spectacular scene came to an abrupt end, and the position of the little devils on the opposite side was silent, which was completely opposite to the earth-shattering explosion just now.
The soldiers who were about to attack, after being stunned for a moment, immediately shouted, armed with AK-47 assault rifles, and began to rush to the position of the little devils on a large scale.
The fighters met with little resistance!
More than 3,000 little devils were suddenly hit so violently, even if there were remnants of little devils, these little devils would definitely not adapt to it quickly, such a dense explosion, these little devils who were not killed were absolutely dizzy at this time.
What's more, most of the remaining little devils are injured, and many are still seriously injured, and under the intensive blow just now, the casualties of the little devils have been more than half.
A large number of fighters rushed to the position of the little devils, and immediately, the sound of AK-47 assault rifle fire sounded one after another, and the fighters began to clear the remaining little devils on the position.
Many soldiers, after shooting a magazine, took advantage of the gap between changing the magazine to have time to look at this position.
Obviously, the landing points of rocket artillery shells are not far away, and on the position, a large number of corpses of little devils are scattered everywhere, and a large number of scattered weapons can be seen everywhere.
An hour later, the Japanese field infantry wing was wiped out, and the soldiers successfully broke through the Japanese defensive position.

Today, the five armies participating in the offensive, the 1st Army, the 2nd Army, the 13th Army, the 15th Army, the 28th Army, and the five major armies, with heavy artillery, marched in unison and launched an attack on the Japanese defense line.
Under the fierce blows of thousands of heavy artillery, the five major armies advanced smoothly, and on the same day, the soldiers advanced more than 30 kilometers and annihilated nearly 100,000 enemies.
Under so many heavy artillery bombardments, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, and at this time, the Japanese troops near Mandalay had been sharply reduced from more than 500,000 to 300,000.
On the Yunnan-Burma Highway, a large number of tanks are advancing with all their might, breaking through to the urban area of Mandalay, this is a tank regiment of the 2nd Army, more than 100 tanks, dozens of armored vehicles, mighty.
On the side of the road, several reporters are holding cameras and taking pictures of the spectacular tank group, these are several war correspondents, also military correspondents, among these reporters, there is also a blonde reporter.
This is a Polish-born journalist named Mike, who came to China a year ago to work for a large newspaper in China, and every day, several major domestic media will report on the war situation in Southeast Asia in a timely manner.
Although Mike has been in China for more than a year and has settled in China with his family, he has been shocked more and more in the battlefield in Myanmar in the past few days.
In the past, in the European theater, Mike was also engaged in war correspondent, shuttling through the major fronts, and witnessed the battles of the Allies and the German army, but today, seeing so many tanks, it seems that he is back in the European theater.
If it weren't for the camouflage paint on these tanks, and the yellow faces on the top of the tanks from time to time, a Chinese soldier in a camouflage military uniform, Mike would definitely think that he was in a European battlefield full of artillery fire.
The Chinese were more and more surprised, and Mike thought to himself, yesterday he had witnessed a huge heavy artillery group that wiped out thousands of Japanese troops in an hour, and today, he saw so many tanks.
As a war correspondent, Mike still has a little common sense, looking at the thick barrels of these tanks' main guns, and each tank walking on the potholed Yunnan-Burma road, Mike knows that the performance of these tanks will not be bad, at least similar to the German army's active tanks, and may be better than the American army's active tanks.
Mike held up his camera and slammed it vigorously, wanting to make the heroic appearance of these tanks appear in the news as soon as possible.

Yangon, the Supreme Command of the Japanese Army in Burma.
The Supreme Commander of the Japanese Army in Burma, General Takasu Shiro, was furious, and in just three days, his own troops had lost nearly 200,000, and his numerical advantage was rapidly disappearing.
Next to them, a group of senior officers of the little devils, their heads were lowered and they didn't dare to come out, and the faces of these little devil officers were also very ugly, and the battles of the past few days were simply a complete defeat.
After venting, Takasu Shiro was only slightly better, but his face was still gloomy and he could almost pinch out the water.
A little devil lieutenant general, seeing that Takasu Shiro had finished venting, boldly said: "Your Excellency Commander! We might as well abandon Mandalay, scatter our troops into the mountains and forests, and engage the attacking Chinese army. ”
Hearing this, Takasu Shiro immediately knew that the lieutenant general meant to fight a guerrilla war with the Chinese army, abandon the major cities, withdraw to the mountains, forests and rural areas, and deal with the Chinese army.
However, Takasu Shiro immediately waved his hand and rejected this proposal, if it really fell to the point of fighting guerrilla warfare, then the face of the entire Burmese Japanese army would be put there, although the current Japanese army can no longer be compared with a few years ago, but it is absolutely impossible for them to hide and fight guerrilla warfare.
Seeing that his proposal was rejected, the little devil lieutenant general was also helpless.
At this time, a little devil Dazuo shouted a report and came in, stood up and saluted, and reported to Takasu Shiro: "Your Excellency Commander, the latest information, the Chinese Navy has appeared in the southeast coast of Yangon. ”
Yangon is not far from the coast, and the Chinese Navy appeared in Mawlamyine some time ago, and now it has appeared in the southeast coast of Yangon, China.
Hearing the report, many little devil officers thought in their hearts, could it be that the Chinese army is preparing to land southeast of Yangon and attack Yangon?
Hearing such a report, Takasu Shiro's face was a little ugly, and he thought to himself, some time ago, the Chinese army landed in Mawlamyine, and he sent a lot of troops to block it, and now, if the Chinese army lands in the southeast of Yangon again, then he will have no troops to fight.
The main force of the Japanese army in the whole of Burma is basically near Mandalay, in addition, there are nearly 100,000 Japanese troops near Donggu to block the Chinese army, and the Chinese army that landed from Mawlamyine some time ago, after successfully occupying Mawlamyine, is currently attacking Donggu.
Thinking of the emptiness of his troops, Takasu Shiro collapsed weakly on the chair.
