Collecting corpses is a cruel job, and the sorrow of a rabbit and a fox is one of the most normal human feelings, and collecting tens of thousands of horrific corpses is terrible work. Zhu Yao, commander of the Kra Military Region, personally went to the front line, even if he was really loyal to the People's Party and Chairman Chen Ke, at this time Commander Zhu Yao did not have the happiness of completely annihilating the enemy, but had a deep fear and even disgust for the most terrifying side of the war.

The Air Force once excitedly told Zhu Yao that the cloud burst bomb was an equipment developed by Chairman Chen Ke. Like a considerable number of cash weapons, Chen Ke played a very important role in the development of China's military equipment. Such ingenuity is also one of the reasons why Chen Ke has an unshakable and lofty position in the army. It's just that when the purpose of these equipment is to destroy rather than to defeat the enemy in battle, even Zhu Yao can't stand it anymore.

There was no fierce fighting, not even time to see the enemy, but only to know that the enemy was in a certain direction, and when he got there in person, the enemy was transformed into a horrible corpse. And that's not just one or a few, not even hundreds. Thousands of enemies were turned into corpses in this way, and even though he knew that the other party was an enemy, Zhu Yao still felt that the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army was not fighting, but carrying out a massacre against the enemy.

Of course, Zhu Yao did not have any resentment towards Chen Ke. Chen Ke didn't develop these equipment for fun, destroying the enemy was to protect the warriors. If you want to solve so many enemies in battle, the Chinese side will inevitably suffer considerable losses. Relying on two regiments and a light tank battalion to solve the enemy of more than 100,000 is the only way to adopt such means of warfare.

Zhu Yao was slightly relieved that the Military Commission believed that there would be no guerrilla warfare in Malaysia and Singapore, let alone a people's war. What the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army feared most was that the enemy had waged a people's war, and the 16-character formula could be carried out by any army, as Engels said, "A nation that wants to fight for its own independence should not be confined to ordinary methods of warfare." Mass uprisings, revolutionary wars, the organization of guerrillas everywhere - this is the only way for a small nation to defeat a large nation, and for an army that is not strong enough to resist a stronger and better organized army. ”

Although it was known that Britain was a colonialist, it was impossible to mobilize the masses. It's just that Zhu Yao saw the Chinese People's War left too deep an impression on him, and the first day it seemed as if the Chinese people had nothing to do with the revolution, and soon joined the ranks of the revolution. With a realistic attitude and a "united front" strategy, the pragmatism of the BJP is able to make even the vipers take on the heavy responsibility of guarding the treasure.

However, the course of the war proved that Zhu Yao's worries were quite unfounded. In the course of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army's march south, it adopted the method of washing the ground with cloudburst bombs whenever it encountered the enemy's heavy troop assembly points. One or two successes still make the commanders feel uneasy, and three or four successes make the commanders feel puzzled. After five or six successes, the commanders and combatants of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army were a little angry. Everyone has seen stupidity, but they have never seen such stupidity. It would have been devastating to gather together, but Britain and the colonial armies under its command were piled up like death.

As long as the planes carry out ordinary bombing, the light tank units will disturb the attack, and the bicycle troops will follow and besiege it. These enemies began to gather their forces after receiving almost a normal blow, and then turned into corpses under the saturation attack of the cloudburst bomb.

If it is a revolutionary army of workers and peasants, when faced with the enemy's insufficient forces, it will immediately disperse to carry out an encirclement and flank attack, and if the enemy's firepower is relatively fierce, the troops will be divided into several detachments to carry out a multi-pronged attack after firing and testing. Strive to achieve the strategy of dividing and encircling and concentrating superior firepower to solve the enemy in stages. If such tactics do not work, the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army will lure the enemy deep and use the 16-character order as a battle strategy to pull the enemy out and fight.

If anyone stupidly gathers up and passively beats under the enemy's superior forces, then this commander will be immediately removed from his post by the party committees at all levels. Offensive! Offensive! Offensive! Attacking in stride, retreating in stride, creating opportunities for attacking, and then attacking with ferons. This is the skill of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army.

The British on the opposite side immediately gave up the offensive and adopted a defensive posture when faced with a disadvantage, and it is not known whether they are lagging behind in military command or simply do not understand what kind of enemy they are facing.

The only thing that was okay was the captives, who, after being surrounded, shouted a few times for them to surrender, and the Britons who survived the British took the lead in surrendering. With this group taking the lead, a group of soldiers of all colors and faces also immediately surrendered. And the captives were quite obedient. Let them assemble where they are, and they will assemble there. Except for the time when they set up temporary prisoner camps, the British soldiers, especially the British officers, refused to work, and everything else can be said to be in order.

In the "Three Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention", the prisoners were severely abused, and the cooperation of these captured personnel also greatly reduced the difficulty of the troops. It's really a slap in the face, on the one hand, it asks for preferential treatment of the prisoners, and on the other hand, after surrendering, it is strictly observed. The follow-up to the war made the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army feel quite smooth.

As an enemy of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, the commander of the British Singapore Military Region also had bitter words. The British are actually quite war-weary, or at least extremely disgusted with bloody battles. Only 20 years have passed since the First World War, and the terrible impression left by the First World War is still in the memories of the British. Moreover, the British did not face a total disadvantage even in the First World War. During World War I, the British had an overwhelming advantage at sea and no disadvantage on land. Many of the new weapons, including tanks, were developed by the British. Even the poison gas bombs that the Germans were the first to use, the British were only a little bit late.

The British have never encountered such a situation in which they have completely lost sea and air supremacy, and even have the upper hand in a land battle. It is not that the British want to cooperate with the Chinese attack, and shrinking the defensive line after a setback is not a particularly unreasonable tactic for the British at all. In the British way of thinking about war, the weapon of mass destruction such as a cloudburst bomb is simply beyond imagination. Little did they know that there was a weapon that could destroy an army within a few square kilometers in an instant.

When the troops at the front suddenly cut off contact, and when the troops on the defensive side kept coming with the news of the enemy's rapid approach, the British had no idea what enemy they were encountering, let alone how many enemies they had in front of them.

The news that China has an army of 5.5 million, the British are well aware. In fact, this news is still old news, at the beginning of 1939, China already had 8 million regular troops, plus engineering troops and railway soldiers, the total number of more than 12 million. If the British troops in the Singapore Military Region knew this number, I am afraid that they would not defend on the spot, but would turn around and run.

On February 9, 1939, five days after Britain declared war on China, the colonial troops in Siam and Malaysia were not heard from, and British commanders could not even believe that they had been killed by the Chinese army. The latest news is that China's vanguard has reached a distance of less than 100 kilometers from Singapore. It has only been three days since the official land war with China began on the 6th. I'm afraid I won't be able to walk this far in three days.

The defense of Singapore was carried out by a core British force, including the British, Australian, and even the brave Portuguese who came to their aid. "A cannon with more grapes than a Christmas pudding will hold Singapore," an Australian newspaper described Singapore. Winston Churchill, the British Admiralty who had been transferred to India from Singapore three days earlier, said, "Singapore has no land defense, which is equivalent to a bottomless warship that can sail!" ”。 Singapore's defenses were aimed at attacking from the sea, and only a few of the shore guns could rotate at a large angle, so they were useless against the landing behind. At this time, there were about 80,000 British, Australian, and Indian troops in Singapore, and food and ammunition were relatively sufficient. The British may not have confidence in the colonial army, but they still have confidence in their own army.

At this time, China sent a telegram to the British that a Chinese warship was to carry Chinese envoys to Singapore to negotiate British surrender with the British. The Governor of Singapore ignored the text of the telegram, and in the end he reluctantly agreed to China's request. At 2 p.m. on March 9, the warship on which the Chinese envoy was traveling landed in the port of Singapore under the tight encirclement of the British Navy.

The Chinese envoy did not meet the Governor of Singapore until 17 o'clock in the afternoon, and as soon as he did, the Chinese envoy hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, my purpose this time is to persuade him to surrender. I hope you will be able to make a decision on whether or not to surrender unconditionally by 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. Whatever you decide, I'll be leaving by 6 a.m. tomorrow. After you in the province chose not to surrender unconditionally, I couldn't leave our saturation attack range and lost my own life in vain. ”

Even if China were to use threats and even insults to speak to Singapore's governor, the governor would not have felt the same extreme anger as he does now. For the Chinese envoy did not take Singapore into account at all, and the frank attitude, and the haste with which he was like a postman rather than a messenger to surrender, made one thing clear to the Governor of Singapore. China simply does not have nearly 100,000 people in the Singapore Army and Navy. As far as the Chinese envoys were concerned, the gang of Singaporeans were nothing more than dry bones in the grave, and it was good to surrender, but it made no difference if they did not surrender.

"You Chinese are still hundreds of kilometers away from us, and you dare to demand our unconditional surrender?" The Governor of Singapore asked in a mocking tone.

The Chinese envoy had personally seen the process and results of the Cloud Burst Bomb attacks along the route of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army's attack, so he said in a tone of course: "That's right, for the sake of your interests, I sincerely suggest that you surrender unconditionally and quickly." If you don't choose to surrender, I suggest that you write a suicide note, do prayers, and do whatever you can do anyway, and don't leave regrets before you die. ”

The Chinese envoy was sincere from the heart, and he did not believe that the British would be able to withstand the saturation of the cloudburst bombs in Singapore. If the governor of Singapore on the other side was not limited to diplomatic treaties, he really wanted to drag the Chinese envoy out and kill him. The Governor stared at the Chinese envoy's compassionate and sympathetic face with great backbone, and said in an arrogant tone: "Singapore of the British Empire will never surrender!" ”
