The commanders of the various armies will come to the stage to receive the certificates, medals, and bonuses on behalf of the troops, units, and individuals who have been commended.

Group armies and divisions held their first meetings to convey the spirit of the meeting one by one.

At the end of the meeting, An Yi concluded: "Brothers, the offensive is not over now, and even if it is over in the future, it will be far more difficult to defend the territory than to attack, so we can't have any complacency!" The officers and men of all ministries have the responsibility to defend the territory, and they should be vigilant and guard the borders. Once the enemy dares to attack, we will resolutely counterattack it, and we must not lose an inch of land under our feet!

"All ministries must actively cooperate with the work of the brigade, carry out the building of political power as soon as possible, set up military management committees at all levels, resolutely carry out the reform of the democratic system in the counties and townships where there is brutal exploitation and oppression, divide the fields into households, fully liberate the productive forces, and improve the people's living standards as soon as possible.

"I firmly believe that as long as we think of all the difficulties in all aspects and take precautions, the final victory will definitely belong to us!"

As An Yi's words fell, the audience burst into applause, and the meeting ended.

At 10 o'clock in the morning of the same day, the North Road Cluster of the Indian Front and the Second Mountain Cluster of the Burmese Front met outside the city of Langpur.

Located in the north of Bengal, on the banks of the Ghagat River, an important tributary of the Brahmaputra River, and adjacent to Bihar, Assam and Meghalaya, Lambpur is an important industrial and commercial city, with cotton blankets, cigarettes, tea, rice milling, flour and other factories in the city, with a permanent population of about 200,000 people.

According to reconnaissance, since the plains further south were already a swamped country, the Japanese troops on the north bank of the Ganges, whether retreating from Bihar or Assam, could not retreat, and almost all of them were concentrated here, ready to use the strong city defenses for final resistance.

Judging from the photos taken by the S high-altitude reconnaissance plane, there are at least 10,000 Japanese troops stationed here, which can be regarded as the relatively effective armed forces of the Japanese, Burma, and Indian fronts in the East Indies at present.

The armies of the east and west roads marched all the way, and almost did not encounter resistance from the Japanese army along the way, the only obstacle was that when the Japanese army retreated, they blew up the railway bridges along the way, and the sappers had to once, twice,

Successive emergency repairs were carried out three or four times, but fortunately, the transport helicopter and airship cooperated throughout the whole process, and the logistics department fully supported the bridge repair materials, which greatly shortened the construction period, so the two armies easily realized the meeting.

The Indian Front Army's North Road Cluster, with Sun Desheng's Eighth Army, Chi Zongyuan's 13th Army and Qin Zhirong's 15th Group Army, the three main forces, Lieutenant General Wu Xianwei, deputy commander of the Front Army, personally participated in the command of the operation, this time with the Northern Burma Front Army's second mountain cluster division, Wu Xianwei and Sun Desheng, Chi Zongyuan, Qin Zhirong and other generals discussed, and let the friendly troops who have more advantages in the mountain operations rest, and the department will solve the battle alone.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, when all preparations were ready, Lieutenant General Sun Desheng, commander of the Eighth Group Army, who took the initiative to ask Ying to take charge of the main attack task, gave an order, and a total of more than 600 howitzers, cannons, and mortars of more than 120 mm caliber made a huge roar, and countless shells smashed on the top of the Japanese troops like hailstones, and when the huge shells exploded, they emitted a deafening roar, and the whole earth was shocked.

After the heavy artillery was launched, a total of 162 130-mm 19-barreled rocket artillery pieces of the nine rocket artillery battalions directly under the concentrated group army also began to participate in the attack.

Under the guidance of the schoolmaster's shooting plane in the sky, the artillery unit's shelling was extremely accurate, and the sturdy buildings, like shattered matchboxes, collapsed like shattered matchboxes in the explosion, and black and red columns of smoke rolled everywhere, and the whole city trembled violently in the incessant sound of explosions.

In just over 10 minutes of shelling, the city's symbol buildings were almost destroyed, and the school firing planes circled at low altitudes, and the feedback intelligence showed that there were no suitable targets inside and outside the city for attack.

Under these circumstances, in order to save ammunition, Sun Desheng ordered the artillery to stop the shelling, and then more than 50,000 officers and men of two motorized infantry divisions and one tank division of the Eighth Army, under the command of various grassroots officers, poured into the city of Lambur from all directions.

As a rule, when attacking the enemy's fortified defensive positions, it is best to choose to break through from one point and spread from this point to both flanks in order to expand the results of the battle. This has the advantage of avoiding frontal fire from the enemy like a hedgehog, so as to reduce casualties.

However, now the advantage achieved by the Anjia army is too great, due to the limited resources, the Japanese army's outer positions mostly adopt civil fortifications, and in the face of heavy artillery of more than 120mm caliber, such fortifications have little defense, like tissue paper, they can be broken at a single stab, and the battle actually evolved into urban warfare from the beginning.

In this case, a concentrated attack will not only fail to achieve the desired effect, but will cause greater casualties due to the overcrowding of troops!

In the previous series of offensive and defensive battles, the Japanese army fully absorbed the lessons and used urban buildings to carry out mobile and flexible interspersed operations. The devils traveled back and forth between the various buildings in squadrons, squads, and even detachments, freely choosing fire points for defense and taking the initiative to counterattack, which caused a certain amount of trouble for the Anjia army to attack.

According to the previous style of fighting, if the attack was concentrated on one point, after taking this point, the Japanese army could take advantage of its familiarity with the buildings to carry out roundabout mobile operations and wait for an opportunity to launch a counterattack, which would often form a pattern of pulling the battle in a local area.

At present, Sun Desheng's method of fighting is to beat Zhu Bajie to death with sticks, and the scattered troops, in accordance with the group tactics that the An Jiajun is best at, poured into the city from all directions, and under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, they seized buildings step by step in a ring shape, gradually compressed the mobile combat capability of the Japanese army, and suppressed and attacked the reinforcements sent by the Japanese army from the cantonment points hidden underground.

At these critical junctures, the special operations brigade directly under the group army and the special brigades of the three divisions below formed an elite strike force, equipped with the latest Type II automatic rifles and general-purpose machine guns, coupled with 75mm recoilless guns, 127mm anti-material guns, and Type III 40mm rocket launchers, and flexibly interspersed with operations, and used powerful firepower to drive wedges into the joint parts of the Japanese army, carry out active defense, and effectively cut off the communication between various units of the Japanese army.

Here is a brief introduction to the new Type III 40mm rocket launcher for the infantry of the Anjia Army.

This new type of rocket launcher is a new type of anti-tank weapon improved and developed on the basis of the Type II rocket launcher, and is the latest product of the Syrian Ordnance Research Institute. It adopts the principle of open balanced projectile, and is composed of a launch canister, a sight, a guard plate, a grip, and a firing and firing mechanism.

The 444 type launch canister is made of high-strength anti-re-corrosion alloy steel, the smoothbore body tube, and the upper part of the barrel is equipped with a ranging optical sight, which can effectively determine the target distance, and at the same time correct the influence of target speed and wind on the trajectory.

The left and right guards of the Type III bazooka are made of fiberglass, and the guard hoop is positioned in the middle of the barrel body to isolate the transmission of heat from the barrel body to the shooter's face during launch, and the launch mechanism is installed in the grip, and the firing mechanism is composed of a rebound-type firing pin assembly, etc., in addition, there is a trigger safety component to ensure safety.

Unlike the Type I and Type II bazookas, the Type III also adds a rocket range extender engine,

It can effectively increase the range of the grenade, improve the warhead of the projectile body, and at the same time, it can also be said that low-light sights and infrared night vision sights can be used in starlight or other low-light conditions, which greatly increases the ability to fight at night.

Type III bazooka is very simple to operate, after loading, open the trigger safety, press down the hammer, that is, into a state of readiness, when the trigger is pressed, the upper flange of the trigger jacks up the blocking iron, release the hammer, the hammer strikes the firing pin under the action of the hammer spring, the firing pin hits the primer cap of the bullet, ignites the propellant, and launches the armor-piercing projectile.

There are three main types of ammunition for Type III bazookas: ordinary armor-piercing shells, tandem warhead armor-piercing shells, and anti-personnel grenades. The fuze of these three kinds of ammunition is generally a trigger fuse, but most of them are equipped with a timing device, and the projectile body detonates itself after leaving the target, and this time is controlled between four and five seconds, and at the same time, the maximum flight distance of the bomb is limited to 1,000 meters to prevent accidental injury.

The armor-piercing projectile specially designed for use in Type III bazookas has reached a new level of armor-piercing ability, penetrating 350mm to 400mm thick for rolled homogeneous armor and firing at a distance of more than 400

meters, and at the same time increased anti-personnel grenades, which have a radius of up to fifteen meters, which can effectively kill enemy soldiers, attack infantry and other living forces.

At 4:35 p.m., the tidal wave of troops, amid the loud trumpets of the charge, bravely assaulted.

Tanks that made a huge roar constantly dropped 105mm cannon shells on the Japanese positions, and together with the armored vehicles that kept spitting flames, they covered the infantry like a surging wave, looking from the sky to the ground, with a magnificent and majestic atmosphere.

After the heavy artillery cultivation, the outer fortifications of Lambur City have become plaster, and a large number of devil soldiers hiding in the outer fortifications were torn to pieces by the relentless steel rain before they could even fire a shot, and the broken fortifications could not give them any protection at all.

Those devil soldiers who were lucky enough to survive were either bombarded into the sky by tanks, or they were suppressed by the caliber high-level dual-purpose machine guns of armored vehicles, and they were so suppressed that they could not return fire, and they were quickly wiped out by the officers and soldiers of Anjia who rushed close to them.

After only a quarter of an hour, the warriors of the Anjia Army rushed into the city of Rampur, and then scattered on all sides, attacking the Japanese fire points in the form of strike groups.

Not to be outdone, the Japanese army immediately dispatched troops-for-tat, taking advantage of their familiarity with the terrain, covering the artillery with machine guns, the grenadiers covering the machine guns, the artillery covering the grenadiers, and the infantry counter-charging in a roundabout way.

At 5:55 p.m., after more than an hour of fighting, the Eighth Army resolutely pushed back the Japanese counterattack and successfully advanced the front to the core area of the city center. This area is the most important commercial and industrial area of the city, although most of the buildings have collapsed in the shelling, but the ruins of the two or three stories or even four or five stories high are still very strong, and the buildings are connected by stairs and hidden passages, the terrain is more complicated, and the attack is much more difficult than the outer houses.

The Japanese army was obviously preparing to fight to the death here, not only deploying more than 60 75mm and 88mm anti-aircraft guns for air defense to various fire strike points, but also building a huge underground communication network for rat warfare, preparing to burn jade with the Anjia army.

What is especially strange is that since the beginning of the war, none of the Japanese and Indian soldiers and indigenous armed mobs that could be seen everywhere in the past have been seen, which makes all the commanders feel incredible, worried that the Japanese army will have some tricks, and they have become more and more cautious when attacking.
