Chapter 1345: A Shocking Event

Lin Long said this, and suddenly paused, the expression on his face was a little solemn.

"But what?" Jiang Haoran exclaimed.

"However, both reported that the island army had gone mad and was massacring civilians in Singapore, with corpses and rivers of blood everywhere they went."

"These brutes!" Jiang Haoran gritted his teeth and scolded, he knew that the soldiers of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team all had a heart as cold as steel, and even they solemnly reported it, and I couldn't imagine how serious the situation was, Jiang Haoran, who had originally decided to besiege the city and wait for work, immediately changed his decision, he couldn't let the island army turn Singapore into an empty ruin.

"Order, the 1st Marine Division will land immediately and quickly penetrate the interior of the city."

"Order, all aviation units take off and launch a carpet bombing on the west shore of the Johor Strait in Singapore, destroying all the fortifications of the island army."

"Order, all helicopters of the task force will be dispatched after the bombing is over, and cooperate with the ground forces to attack."

"Order, the 3rd, 214th, and 215th Divisions of the Marine Corps immediately begin to land on the beach."

As soon as Jiang Haoran stopped, Yang Honglie asked urgently: "General seat, the 200th division will be in place tomorrow, can't you wait for them to arrive before acting?" ”

The 200th Division is the fist unit of the Far Second Group Army, and it is also the first mechanized unit in China, with complete combat vehicles, heavy artillery, and helicopters, so it is also the last unit to land from Penang.

Jiang Haoran said fiercely: "Give these beasts a chance to breathe, they will have more time to plague the people and destroy everything in Singapore, if I need this result, I will directly use napalm, so, I can't wait, tonight will cut through their defense line, and tomorrow the 200th division can directly drive into Singapore." ”

Yang Honglie nodded and said, "What about us, should we also lean in and provide fire support to the troops?" ”

Jiang Haoran thought for a moment and said: "You can surround it, but don't get too close, the shore-based artillery fire on the island is too strong, there is no need to increase casualties, just block the entire sea surface of Singapore and don't let Takashi Sakai escape." In addition, the British East India Fleet was ordered to sail to the front line of Songkhla and Pattani immediately to escort their landing force. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it." Yang Honglie agreed and walked out of the command headquarters quickly.

Lin Long frowned, and said strangely: "Boss, why do I always think that you are deliberately transferring the British army to the east, now that Songkhla and Pattani have been completely vacuumed, there can be no threat at all, but the war in Singapore is in full swing, is it necessary for you to let the British army be so comfortable?" Are you ......"

Lin Long said it, and suddenly found that Jiang Haoran was looking at him with two cold eyes, and his expression immediately stopped his mouth, covered his mouth and left, alas...... Curiosity kills cats.

Tonight in Singapore is destined to be a sleepless night.

At about 10 o'clock in the evening, the 1st Marine Division successfully landed from the west bank and quickly advanced towards the city.

At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the defense line on the north coast of the island army collapsed under the continuous attack of bombers and helicopters, and the 3rd, 214th, and 215th Marine Divisions successfully crossed the Johor Strait from the east coast, and the troops entered a state of street fighting on all fronts.

By the early morning of the next day, the Chinese troops on the Western Front had occupied important places such as the Tima Heights, the Inbaoding Reservoir, and the Garland Airport.

The Northern Front fought repeated battles with the island army on the edge of the Straits of Johor, and the battle was at a stalemate for a while, but this situation did not last long.

At about 8 o'clock in the morning, the 200th Division of the Far Second Group Army arrived as scheduled.

Although the embankment of the Johor Strait was destroyed by the explosives of the island army, the cornerstone was still there, and the boat bridge troops almost did not take too many troubles to build the pontoon bridge, and at about 11 o'clock, the tank regiment of the 200th Division and the tanks and armored vehicles stranded on the east bank in the early stage all crossed the sea.

The Chinese army began a major offensive on all fronts of the city of Singapore.

In the case of equal strength, perhaps this will be an extremely cruel and bloody battle, and it will also be a protracted battle that will not be too short, and how many soldiers, how many civilians, and how many innocent people will die in this war is immeasurable, but one thing is certain, that is, victory will definitely belong to the Chinese soldiers.

Just when the Battle of Singapore was in full swing, an earth-shattering event occurred in the African theater.

The German army, which had retreated more than 200 kilometers, suddenly blitzed El Alamein, the last barrier of the Suez Canal, and quickly occupied El Alamein with lightning speed, and the entire Suez Canal and Egypt were under the front of the German army.

Since the surrender of France, Britain was beaten by Germany without the power to fight back, and then by the German army, the strategy of attacking the west, captured the Mediterranean important Malta, the German Rommel led the Afrika Korps to defeat the British army, the British Eighth Army commander Wavell was captured, and just as the German army was about to launch the capture of Egypt and drink the Suez Canal, the Soviet Union was lured by the British, and also launched a heavy thunderstorm plan under the condition of self-preservation, as a result, in just a few months, the Soviet Red Army was surrounded and annihilated in large numbers, The form was reversed by the Germans.

The German new forces launched a frenzied attack on the Soviet Union in the east, and Britain got a rare respite, and then, the Soviet Union frequently asked Britain for help, but Britain has always refused to send troops on the grounds of inadequacy, and only symbolically sent bombers to bomb the submarine bases off the coast of France.

It was not until the Soviet Union reached a critical juncture of life and death that the British began to fully support the Soviet Union, and a large number of weapons and strategic material resources were continuously put into the Soviet battlefield.

At the same time, they began to rack their brains to attack the rear of Germany, and just when the German army withdrew from the battlefield of El Alamein and was preparing to attack the Soviet Union with all its might, the British conducted an in-depth and detailed study of the German industrial system for a long time, and they were pleasantly surprised to find that a seemingly inconspicuous industrial sector was actually the hub of the entire German military industry, that is, the ball bearing and sealing element industry.

Ball bearings are the lubricant that keeps war machines running, and there are hardly any important weapons that can function without ball bearings. Moreover, the bearing industry is highly concentrated in Germany, and a small town called Schweinfurt is the bearing production center of Germany.

Just a few days before Jiang Haoran flew to Chittagong, the British army mobilized a large number of long-range bombers to raid Schweinfurt, and the entire Schweinfurt was almost razed to the ground, and Germany's bearing industry suffered a serious blow, and millions of sets of finished bearings and thousands of tons of bearing steel were all scrapped after being overfired.
