140 Chaos (20)
How close is the Southern China Military Region to Myanmar? The Kra Military Region is located in the northwest next to the southeastern border of Myanmar.
The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army advanced by land and water, and on land the task of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army was to deal with the British colonial authorities. This includes the British army, the government of the British local authorities, the police, and so on. With the help of the "My Burmese Association", the reception work went smoothly.
It often takes several hours or even more than a dozen hours to reach the destination, and when the destination is reached, the battle to solve the problem is likely to take only ten minutes, at most more than an hour. While the army troops struggled along the narrow southern part of Burma, the navy headed straight for its destination.
The British were very inconsistent about whether to defend Burma or not. After China cut Britain off the mainland from India, the British, who were well aware of the importance of maritime communications, understood that things had reached a very bad point. Sending all of the British Empire's fleets to fight in the Indian Ocean would theoretically temporarily open up the lines of communication between Britain and India.
The question is, what about after it is opened?
Even the current British Prime Minister Qiu Fatpang, who has an extremely tough attitude, did not dare to give this order. In order to maintain the lines of communication, a large number of warships had to be sprinkled on the sea and let them cruise back and forth. Compared with China's rogue navy, which uses submarines and aircraft as its main means of attack, the British Navy follows the route of "high-end, atmospheric, and high-grade" heavy ships and giant guns.
China's rogue navy can sink a battleship or heavy cruiser that would take years to build with a tiny submarine, or even a few even more insignificant aircraft. British destroyers and light cruisers, on the other hand, had anti-submarine equipment. The problem is that these ships are very lacking in anti-aircraft firepower, and China will never foolishly let submarines surround them to solve the battle, submarines and fast surface ships are often on patrol duty, and once the British Navy is spotted, the aircraft will be dispatched immediately. With the help of Chinese ships trailing the British Navy, settle the battle.
The British Navy also tried to send small surface forces to pursue Chinese surface forces, and the pursuers quickly became hunted down. Destroyers and light cruisers became good targets. The three-in-one hunting system of underwater, surface and air constructed by the Chinese made the British "tall" navy miserable in the Indian Ocean.
"Learning from the pain" is also a luxury for the British today, who must come up with a solution while being beaten by China. Qiu Chupang was born in the navy, and the naval meeting he personally convened quickly came to a conclusion. Britain lacks a strategic air force in the Indian Ocean. China relies on its strong industrial strength to build its own military system in the Indian Ocean at any cost, and the backward technology and tradition of the British make Britain really have no strength to solve this problem.
How can we curb China's ravages in the Indian Ocean, and there is no good way to do it. Britain had already declared war on Germany in conjunction with France. The French also sent troops to attack the German direction of Siegfried, and after suffering thousands of casualties, the French chose to rest on their laurels. The First World War made too much of an impression on France. Tens of thousands of soldiers can be killed on any front, and France really can't afford such casualties. France would not fight such a war again.
Blocking France, Germany began to operate in Northern Europe. In order to fight China, Britain mobilized a number of fleets into the Indian Ocean, which allowed the German battleships to wreak havoc in Northern Europe. In particular, the German battleship Bismarck, which was simply a devil's warship. The British rallied their navy to try to besiege the battleship, but the siege failed, and when the armored cruiser Hood intercepted the battleship Bismarck in Danish waters, it was blown up by a single shot and completely sank within two minutes.
The British fleet, which intercepted the Bismarck and Prinz Eugen several times, was lured into a predetermined ambush position by German warships. Stealing chickens did not become a handful of rice, and the Germans sank two cruisers and one armored cruiser one after another. The British Empire went to war with China and Germany at the same time, suffering heavy losses.
As the world hegemon, Britain's current downcast is unfolding in front of the whole world. Qiu Fatpang already clearly felt that at this time, it was not a question of how to defeat the enemy at all, but the British Empire was facing a life-and-death crisis. If the war had been fought like this, the British Empire would have been driven out of the Indian Ocean forever once the Chinese and German armies had finally converged in the Middle East.
Is Germany only thinking about seizing Europe? Aren't Germany and Italy, which wears the same pants with Germany, ready to seize Africa? Will the United States, which is eyeing North America, spare Canada? If Britain had been confined to the British Isles, the British Empire would have been on the verge of complete collapse. Such a future sends chills down the minds of the British Cabinet.
Britain colonized the Americas, and eventually the United States became an independent colony. Britain once set off a frenzy to try to carve up China, and the Chinese People's Party finally defeated all the invaders and gained China's independence and liberation. In the Soviet Union, which is now not bordering Britain, Qiu Fatpang once proudly declared that he was the supreme commander of the siege of the Soviet Union. It has been less than 20 years since the Soviet Union was first founded to try to eradicate the old accounts of the Soviet Union.
As for Germany, which was now at war with Britain...... Qiu Fatpang did not even want to discuss the "friendly relations" between Britain and Germany.
After hundreds of years as the world's hegemon, Britain found that all the great powers in the world were enemies of Britain, and Britain and these countries had a blood feud. Unlike in the past, these countries did not get into a fight of their own at the instigation of the British.
China's back-to-back relationship with the Soviet Union allowed both countries to avoid internal strife, and the long border line of peace and stability between the two great powers unprecedented in history emerged. Even though Germany and the Soviet Union had been scolding each other for more than ten years, they still took Britain as their main opponent at critical moments. If these great powers do not do anything with each other, Britain will be out of luck.
The strategic change is so terrible, Qiu Fatpang really can't come up with any way, but the rumors that Qiu Fatpang came to power is a conspiracy of the Americans, and it is the United States that is trying to disintegrate Britain and annex Britain has not only not disappeared, but has doubled the intensity. It used to be a rumor that the Irish were walking, but now even the Scots have joined in. In this regard, Qiu Chubby's anger can be imagined, not to mention the sinister intentions of these separatists. Do Scots and Irish people also have the surname Zhao? When will it be their turn to interject in the affairs of the British Empire?
But the problem now is that if the United States were to join in the frenzy of carving up Britain, the fate of the British Empire might be even more tragic than it was when the Roman Empire fell. No matter how you look at it at the moment, Britain can't let the United States become Britain's enemy, even if it is called an American spy, Qiu Fatpang still makes preparations to visit the United States in person.
But the collapse of the British Empire was faster than Chubby thought. When the Chinese navy entered Burma, the first thing was an uprising in the local Burmese army. Aung San didn't want to simply be a leader. After he brought back China's promise to guarantee Burma's independence, the "My Burmese Association" mobilized its full strength.
As a patriot, Aung San was the president of the Burmese Students' Federation before joining the Burmese Association, and the young students will always be a standing army of revolutionary forces. In this era, in addition to the advanced industrial countries, the parents behind the young students are the backbone of society. Mobilizing Burmese students is tantamount to mobilizing Burma's middle class.
A considerable number of British troops under Rangoon were prepared to resist the landing of the Chinese fleet in Rangoon. As a result, in the early morning of April 2, the British army suddenly received several urgent phone calls, all of which were reports that the Burmese troops had begun to withdraw from their positions.
At this time, the Chinese Air Force fleet had already reached the skies over the British positions. Looking down from above, a dozen huge fires suddenly appeared on the ground. Each fire pit is formed by an arrow, and the arrows of a circle of flames point to a large area. According to the agreement, this area was the position of the British army.
The British Air Force also took off to try to resist the Chinese Air Force, only the British planes that were slow in the air were more like they came to die. And the British planes that took off clearly saw something unusual on the ground, and they turned their noses and tried to land. Of course, the Chinese Air Force could not give the British plane such an opportunity, and the fighter jets could easily shoot down the British plane from behind. The bombers followed the guidance of the flaming arrows and carried out heavy bombardment of the British positions.
The earth-shattering explosion made the whole of Yangon tremble, and several rivers that flow through Yangon have swirled in strange whirlpools, and schools of frightened fish have jumped out of the water. Some simply floated on the surface of the water after the stun, drifting with the current. Such "pomp" is already accustomed to the Chinese Air Force, but for the Burmese who have not seen modern warfare, this is simply a scene of world destruction.
The Burmese are predominantly Buddhist, and devout Buddhists in Yangon are holding cheap Buddhist beads exported from China to Myanmar and muttering scriptures. The fighting did not spread to the whole of Yangon.
Comrade Aung San first welcomed the Chinese troops ashore, and then led the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army straight to the British positions. According to the pre-design, the Chinese troops were not divided into two parts, one to attack the British positions head-on, and the other to go around and copy behind the British. The British did not expect a collective defection of the Burmese troops, and the frenzied bombardment of the main position also caused the British to lose their chain of command
The fighting continued until 3 April, when Rangoon was liberated.
"All the seized weapons were handed over to the Burmese side to take over, and the industry that cleaned up the battlefield was also handed over to the Burmese side!" The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army gave the death order. For the people of the colonies, it was necessary to see the deplorable conditions of the colonizers with their own eyes in order to realize that the colonizers were not invincible. Having destroyed the center of British control in Rangoon, the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants continued its march westward. The target was the British troops on the Burmese-Indian border.
