Chapter 194 South African Campaign 1

Soon, the Ministry of Defense of the African People's Liberation Army (APLA) made a document about the telegram sent by Victor and the decision to punish Victor and sent it to the various corps.

This made the commanders of the various legions, who were already very arrogant, gasp one after another when they saw this document. A main regiment, as the chairman of the main regiment was buried by Victor, this is the rhythm of the sky, but the commanders and other military officials are a chill, the chairman is going to carry out a mental rectification of the whole army, the last sentence of the idea does not change immediately to replace the words really weighed thousands of pounds, what after reading that is a test paper to see if you are qualified. If you are not qualified, I am afraid that I will have to sit on the cold bench with Victor at that time.

For a moment, the various legions paused their steps, and collectively gathered together and bit their pencil heads one after another. It's not a small thing. Soon, the letters were sent to Li Puyu in front of him. After Li Puyu read them one by one, he knew that his goal had been achieved, so he ordered them to do their own thing and return to the battle.

But Victor then flew back to the Ministry of Defense in Feijing, Li Puyu originally planned to let him be a cold bench for a year, but the battle situation did not wait for anyone, the chief of staff of the Third Army was limited in ability, and Li Puyu had no choice but to throw Victor to the island of Madagascar to temporarily act as the commander of the Madagascar garrison, Ronald was in charge of the First Army, and Durabo urgently served as the commander of the Third Army to command the battle below.

When Durabo took over as the commander of the Third Army, the other legions had already launched military operations in accordance with the battle plan formulated by Li Puyu before, because of the mess of the Third Army, the other legions also became cautious, as the commander of the Second Army Corps attacking the direction of South Africa, Barry emphasized several times before leaving the expedition to be careful not to be careless and eat the losses incurred by the Third Army.

Just after the African People's Liberation Army annihilated the main force of the Anglo-French coalition in Zambia in one fell swoop, a telegram was quickly sent to the British Army General Headquarters in South Africa. Britain's Chief Commander of African Operations, Harold Brown. Alexander took the telegram and said in surprise: "What, we secretly assembled in Chipata, Zambia, to prepare for a sneak attack, and the main force of the opposing army was completely eaten by the other side, and due to the night attack of our army, one of its main regiments was completely annihilated by our side. The other side launched a fierce retaliation operation, slaughtering all the British and French populations there. ”

"This group of barbarians, this is a naked crime, don't they know that international practice is not allowed to slaughter soldiers who have laid down their arms, and even more cannot slaughter unarmed people?" Harold. Alexander trembled a little with excitement with the document in his hand.

This is the French army's African combat commander Crémonte on the side, said: "This matter is not a headache for us at the moment, we have to face the main force of our army has been eaten by the other side, and the hundreds of thousands of troops placed in front of us by the other side will be like a tide rushing towards us, we still think about how to resist their attack." ”

The two British and French senior commanders in front of them naturally knew the horror of the African People's Liberation Army, especially as the armored units of the African People's Liberation Army that had fought with them several times, their combat effectiveness was far greater than that of the ordinary infantry army of the African army. If it weren't for the fact that the other party's strength was too small and had scruples before, they would have gone south a long time ago. Now his main force has been wiped out by the other party. Most of the remaining troops were servant armies from various colonies. Expecting them to stand up to the wolf-like African People's Liberation Army (APLA) is like smashing a rock with a pile of tofu. It's a rhythm that no amount is enough. In short, two words are ridiculous.

British Commander Harold. After listening to the words of the French commander Cremont, Alexander immediately turned to the chief of staff standing beside him and shouted: "What are you still stunned to do, hurry up and order me to immediately send no less than 100,000 British elite troops in the central and northern regions of Africa to support us immediately, remember to be quick, it will be too late!" ”

"Old man, we're late." The voice of the French commander Cremont was again at Harold. Alexander's side rang out, and he was holding a document with a grim face. Then he said: "That damn Chinese Li Puyu has officially telegraphed to the world, announcing that now the African People's Liberation Army has officially sent troops to recover the entire southern African region." ”

On December 1, 1937, Li Puyu, chairman of the African People's Republic and chairman of the Military Commission of the African People's Liberation Army, officially sent a telegram to the world: "From now on, the African People's Liberation Army will officially launch a full-scale campaign to recover South Africa, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Zambia, Kenya, Uganda, and the Congo." The million-strong army of the African People's Liberation Army (PLA) launched an all-out attack on the armies of Britain, France, and other colonial countries entrenched in these areas from four directions at the same time, and the African people's governments once again advised these countries to immediately lay down their arms and surrender unconditionally. Otherwise, the millions of men of the African People's Liberation Army will send them to hell to repent. ”

At 8 o'clock in the morning, nearly 500,000 troops of the various legions of the African People's Liberation Army (PLA), which had been deployed for several days, and 100,000 soldiers of the Second Army Corps of the African People's Liberation Army, led by hundreds of Grizzly and Rhino tanks and under the cover of the First Air Force Division, they took the lead in launching a fierce attack on South Africa. Three third-rate British colonial servant divisions deployed on the border between Mozambique and South Africa were held off by the steel torrent of the African People's Liberation Army (APLA) less than two hours later. The line of defense was immediately lost.

At the same time, the 100,000 men of the Third Army in Zambia, under the command of the new commander Durabo, also began to attack the British defenders of Zambia, who were facing the enemy head-on. However, the number of British troops stationed in Zambia was close to 200,000, so the Third Army Corps did not progress as smoothly as the Second Army Corps of the African People's Liberation Army commanded by Barry, although the offensive was fierce due to the change of commanders. The 100,000-strong army commanded by Durabo stormed for hours with the help of aircraft and tanks, as well as heavy artillery units. It is only less than 50 kilometers forward.

As for the Ugandan side, more than 200,000 men under the command of the commander of the Fourth Army Camille and the Fifth Army Rysterl were killed in the direction of the Congo. For a time, the attention of the whole world was attracted to the African continent by Li Puyu's generosity. For a moment, the whole world exclaimed, this is a war that African blacks are waging against white Europeans that will determine their fate and future. If the Anglo-French forces are defeated. Britain and France would lose one of their largest colonies altogether. At the same time, other colonies will be forced to have a chain reaction. The glory of Britain and France was completely shattered. If the African People's Republic is defeated. Then the Anglo-French coalition will inevitably take the opportunity to invade the African People's Republic, which has just been formed less than a year ago, will immediately disappear, and the small but exquisite military-industrial system of the African People's Republic will fall into the hands of Britain and France. In this war, no one can afford to lose, and for both sides, taking a step back is an abyss.
