Part 3: Rising Africa Section 64 If you don't change it, you have to change it
readx; The furnishings of the temporary headquarters are extremely simple, a homeowner's homemade table, and a few bamboo chairs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIn the evening, the wind in the mountains was strong and whining, and the branches of the willow trees outside the house were blowing in the wind.
Zhang Baogen looked at his watch, at 4:53, it had been eight minutes since the general attack began, and the various divisions were progressing smoothly, but the motorized infantry regiment could not find the enemy near Guliu Village, and the 203rd Brigade of the Keguo Reading Army had lost its trace, "Has the helicopter regiment returned?" Found 203? Why hasn't it been reported yet? ā
"According to the report, the battlefield surveillance radar shows that the 203rd Brigade of the enemy's Keguo Reading Army has deviated 16 kilometers from its original location and is turning westward, showing signs of convergence with the 66th Division of the enemy's Burmese Political Axe Army." The operational staff officer came to report.
"Report, my Bamo squad reported, the squad raided Bamo successfully, and has entered the Bamo City." The communications staff officer reported with an incredulous expression.
A few hours ago, Kakaba and Lieutenant General Ka Gang had just concluded a meeting, after which Lieutenant General Ka Gang and Ka Ka Bar Intelligence Minister jointly ordered that the Eastern Front Keguo Reading Army cease fire on the spot to gather troops, and the 203rd Brigade of the Western Front Keguo Reading Army turned westward to attack the 66th Division of the Burmese Political Axe Army. Originally, Lieutenant General Ka Gang wanted to attack the 77th Division nearby, but Kaka Bar objected, saying that the 77th Division would guard against the 203rd Brigade that was close at hand, but the 66th Division would not, everyone was calculating how to attack the Maili Mountain forces, and they would pay attention to the prey in the so-called trap, but would not guard against their teammates in motion on the other side.
Lieutenant Perhai looked at the watch on his wrist, 4:36, I don't know how the battle situation is developing now? "Oooo The tide of battle changed, and Lieutenant Perhai raised his glass and took a sip of water to calm his anxiety.
"Hello, lieutenant, this is an urgent letter from the command of the Northern Military Region to the Military Intelligence Liaison Office, solemnly protesting against your unreasonable attack on our troops, and we urge the Mailishan armed forces to immediately correct their mistakes, stop their unprovoked attacks on our side, and stop their words and deeds that create friction and damage regional stability, so as not to further damage the relations between the two sides." Captain Tamba finished handing over a document.
Lieutenant Pohai gave the captain a standard military salute in accordance with the regulations, and then said categorically, "I'm sorry, Captain Tambo, my Myitkyina Military Intelligence Liaison Office in Mailishan only accepts documents from the Burmese political axe or the Myanmar Ministry of National Defense, and is only responsible for the transmission of information, I hope Captain Tamba can understand." ā
I only accept the documents of the Burmese political axe or the Burmese Ministry of National Defense, and I will not accept the documents of your Northern Military Region, which does not conform to the procedure, and I will return what Captain Tambo said in the morning. Captain Tampo bit her lip gently, she knew that her actions were very seductive, and if you deliberately learn from my words to anger me, I want to tempt you, hum, tell you to do it for that vixen, "I'm only responsible for handing over the documents to you, as for you to report it or throw it in the trash, it's not my problem, and it's none of my business to delay your girlfriend." With that, he put the papers on the desk, saluted, and turned away, ignoring the stunned young lieutenant, wondering whether he was paying attention to her graceful body under her tall uniform.
Here's how things went:
At 4:25, Wu Jilin, the commander of the 46th Battalion of the Keguo Reading Army, drove to Maizayang alone and asked to meet the leaders of the armed forces of Mailishan.
At 4:30 a.m., the rocket artillery regiment directly under the Mailishan Headquarters carried out a 10-minute saturation strike on the target of the enemy's 77th Division, and the enemy's 77th Division suffered heavy losses.
At 4:36 a.m., the Myitkyina Military Intelligence Liaison Office, Captain Tambo, a military representative of the Burmese Political Axe Army, visited Lieutenant Perhai.
At 4:38 a.m., Lieutenant Perhai reported the latest briefing from the Myitkyina Military Intelligence Liaison Office.
At 4:40 a.m., the Maili Mountain Helicopter Regiment launched an air attack on the enemy's 77th Division, and the enemy's 77th Division was unable to counterattack the Maili Mountain air strike, which made matters worse.
At 4:45 a.m., the general offensive on the Western Front began, the first regiment opened the way with Black Hawk tanks to attack the Lagu Pass, the second regiment launched a ground attack east of Gutang Town, the helicopter regiment returned to the field to replenish ammunition and wait for new orders, and the motorized rifle regiment was searching for the 203rd Brigade of the Keguo Reading Army all over the world.
At 4:49, Wu Jilin, commander of the 46th Battalion, met with Wu Biao, deputy commander of the 1st Division who was supervising the battle on the Eastern Front, and conveyed the apologies of Lieutenant General Kagang and the Minister of Intelligence of Kakaba and the handling of this matter, and said that the 203rd Brigade of the Western Front of the Keguo Reading Army had taken the lead in launching an attack on the 66th Division of the Burmese Political Axe Army, and promised that in this battle, the 203rd Brigade would unconditionally obey the command of Mailishan.
At five o'clock, Jiang Zhonghua issued an order, the Western Front Motorized Infantry Regiment and the 1st Division, the main force of the 1st Regiment, the 2nd Regiment, resolutely and completely wiped out the 77th Division, did not need to clean up the battlefield, and went straight to the 66th Division, striving to completely annihilate the 66th Division, the 1st Division and 3rd Regiment of the Western Front Army, giving up the task of attacking Laus, the New Regiment turned to the Nansai area, and the 3rd Regiment attacked Ruibao.
The Nam Sai area is 100 kilometers away from Myitkyina, which is a county-level special economic zone in Myanmar, and there is a sand gold mining area about 50 kilometers away from the border, with simple gravel roads, and the transportation is quite convenient. Located on the banks of the Mu River, Ruibao is a rice growing and distribution center, with a power plant and a railroad running through the city.
Seeing that the fat on the side of his mouth was gone, Zhang Baogen vented his anger on the head of the 77th Division, which was supposed to divide and attack the 77th Division and was waiting for death, the 77th Division Commander Brigadier General Maung Shan did not have the personal guard of the Savior at the critical moment like the commander of the 57th Division, nor did he have the escape skills of Major General Wutai, the deputy commander of the artillery, and he did not have the resentment and cunning of Colonel Weng Tu.
When the 203rd Brigade attacked the 66th Division, Satake relied on his strong firepower and strong fortifications to completely contain the attack of the 203rd Brigade, and planned to take the opportunity to counterattack the sneak attackers, but first, the sky was getting darker, and secondly, the sneak attacking troops seized the time to dig fortifications, and kept shooting guns, throwing grenades and releasing rocket artillery. I thought that the situation is unclear now, so I should stick to the spot and wait for dawn to say, anyway, you can't rush in, just call the 77th Division, 57th Division, and 398th Heavy Artillery Brigade to counter-encircle, and you rural leopards like Mailishan can't break through my fortifications, the firepower is too poor.
In the middle of the night, the tragic moment of the 66th Division arrived, and the troops of the western front of Maili Mountain rushed over like a tide.
Zhang Baogen ordered the soldiers of the 203rd Brigade to withdraw from their positions, reorganize their forces, and launch a fierce attack on the stubborn 66th Division. The fortifications and firepower of the 66th Division were able to work against the 203rd Brigade, but under the artillery fire of Mount Maili, it jumped like snow. One by one, the souls were dejected, and they fled in all directions.
This time the defense, Zuo Wuman thought that he could succeed in one fell swoop, eliminating the advancing troops on the western front of the Maili Mountain, but it backfired, did not get the expected results, not to mention, after entering the line from Bamo to Lagu Mountain, he could not find the trace of the main force of Maili Mountain, and he also lost troops and generals one after another, and now he did not say that he would annihilate the enemy, even his own surname could not be guaranteed, and all the fraternal troops in this area could not be contacted, and the Northern Military Region and the Ministry of Defense did not know anything about it, and their hearts were burning with fire, and they could not delay any longer, or it was a dead word, It's time, Satake has finally made up his mind.
"What? Satake surrendered, and the Brigadier General of the 66th Division, Satake, led his troops to surrender? Zhang Baogen jumped like thunder, and hit the cotton pile with another heavy punch, and he was so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood, "Send a report to the headquarters to report the battle situation." ā
"In accordance with the order of the headquarters, our troops on the Western Front annihilated the enemy's 77th Division, severely damaged the enemy's 66th Division and the 398th Heavy Artillery Brigade, routed the enemy's 57th Division, killed the enemy's 77th Division's brigadier general division commander Maung Shan, and the enemy's 66th Division's brigadier general division commander Zuo Wu led his troops to surrender and asked for instructions on the next move."
In the Panlong base, Jiang Zhonghua stared at the map on the big screen for a long time, and the leaders of the military intelligence department next to him stood straight one by one, Zhang Baogen's report had been half an hour, and the order of the supreme leader Lei Dong had not yet been approved. The satellite phone rang, and the thunderous sound came from the microphone, which was very clear.
"Send effective troops to master the Lagu Mountain Pass and set up the Eight Mo Army Division. The Mossi garrison area was taken, and the former 66th division of the three regiments, the brigadier general and division commander of the three regiments, formed the third division, and the division commander was Sawu, who also served as the commander of the Moxi garrison area. In a showdown with Keguo's Reading Army, Nansai and Ruibao exchanged for Mai Zayang, and they had to be changed if they didn't change. ā
Jiang Zhonghua walked out of the base after relaying the order, and it was already late at night, and a moon like a jade disk hung high in the blue sky, illuminating the earth as if it were day. If Lei Dong's call didn't come, Jiang Zhonghua would still hesitate. Now that the army is growing, the territory must be expanded accordingly, but what he wants is to coerce the Keguo Reading Army to go north together, and Lei Dong's layout is to develop alone and move westward. In the fat man's view, the pressure to go north is a little less, and it will be much more difficult to face the military pressure of the Northern Military Region of Myanmar and the Eastern Military Region in the future, but the terrain there is a little better. As soon as the Lagu Mountain Pass is defended in the north, Ba Mo and Mo Xi can be horns of each other, and Mai Zayang is in hand, and the situation on the eastern front will be greatly improved, and the territory for maneuvering will be larger. As for Keguo's idea of reading the army, does he think about it? If you don't change it, you have to change it!
In the following week, the Mailishan troops fought one battle after another in the southern and northern battles, winning one battle after another, and in addition to the battle of annihilating the 77th Division, in a short period of nine days, a total of 11 annihilation battles and four blocking battles were fought, annihilating three divisions and one heavy artillery brigade of the Burmese Political Axe Army, of which 1,772 officers below the rank of colonel were captured, 1,414 officers below the rank of colonel were killed, 52 mortars of various types, 46 heavy machine guns, 46 light machine guns, more than 1,000 other guns, and eight radio stations were captured...... The above data do not include the casualty statistics of the new 6th Division's Samu Division and the Keguo Reading Army.
The loss of three divisions and one heavy artillery brigade made the political axe army unable to organize an effective offensive for a while, and the change of hands of Nansai, Ruibao, Bhamo, and Mosi also made the Burmese political axe very passive, and the problems that could not be solved militarily should be discussed politically, and military defeat did not equal political defeat, and there were many examples of winning the battle and winning the battle and losing the battle.
