671: Sweeps through Southeast Asia

The swiftness of the reconquest of Hong Kong shocked not only Britain, but the whole world, and of course, it was the British who were the most shocked and impacted, because they were one of the participants in this incident. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hong Kong is about 36 kilometers from the southernmost point to the northernmost point in a straight line, and the infantry can walk in a day, but in nine hours to control all the streets and alleys of Hong Kong, this speed is far from what anyone can imagine.

What's more, before that, the British did not provide China with any maps and intelligence information about Hong Kong, but they were able to accurately find the camps of the British troops stationed in Hong Kong, and even arrange garrisons on every hill.

And this also made the British deeply aware of the benefits of mechanized marching, because after seeing those Chinese soldiers, no one doubted whether they were still capable of fighting after such a long journey.

These Chinese soldiers, who had arrived from afar, looked better than the British in terms of morale and physical strength.

In fact, there are not many British troops stationed here at this time, and the number of British troops stationed in Hong Kong is not much, only three brigades of troops, after the two sides signed the treaty half a month ago, the British withdrew two brigades in advance in order to be able to get equipment as soon as possible, so Hong Kong has only one brigade of British troops stationed in this half month, although there is still a brigade of Ah San......

Immediately afterwards, at seven o'clock in the morning of August 17, a division of troops was stationed in Macao, although the Portuguese army was very reluctant, but in such an environment, they were powerless to resist at all, and the Portuguese army stationed in Macao was only one battalion, and the Portuguese army did not have any ability to resist at all, and before lunch, Macao also announced its return.

And the way to announce the return is to launch a clear electricity message to the world.

At the same time, the infantry of the two armies and the armored units of one division were also entering the territory of Vietnam through Guangxi, which was a vassal state of China, and the two sides maintained a suzerainty relationship for a long time before being taken away by the French.

But with this Sino-Chinese agreement, Vietnam once again returned to the arms of China, although Vietnam was only a victim from beginning to end, but the Nguyen family was quite excited during this time.

In their impression, China is completely a face-loving and generous guy, as long as they give them enough face, then the Chinese will agree to all the conditions of Vietnam.

Therefore, on the one hand, the Nguyen dynasty sent people to receive the Chinese army that came to station, and on the other hand, it expressed extreme disgust for the French army, and even complained in front of the Chinese with snot and tears, and even personally sent a team of envoys to Zhongjing.

The envoy team carried a large number of local Vietnamese specialties, but in fact these specialties are not so unusual.

However, the name of Vietnam is quite loud, which also makes it difficult for the Chinese side to refuse, and the Vietnamese envoy team went to Zhongjing in the form of pilgrimage.

Prior to this, the Vietnamese side also had a certain understanding of China in the near future.

Therefore, after meeting Wang Sirui, the Vietnamese envoy first put forward a request to restore the suzerainty relationship between Vietnam and China, and asked the suzerainty to send a brigade of troops to Vietnam to exercise the rights of the suzerain.

Although everything seemed to be normal, but immediately afterward, the Vietnamese envoys revealed their true colors, and the Vietnamese envoys first cried, mainly to say how hard the Vietnamese people had lived in the years since they left China, how they were suppressed by the French, and how many losses Vietnam suffered in the process of resistance.

Anyway, in the end, the Vietnamese hope that the Chinese side can unconditionally provide Vietnam with equipment for two infantry corps, an artillery division and an armored division, and help the Vietnamese people arm themselves, and the Vietnamese people are willing to accept China's leadership forever.

The Vietnamese hope to exchange their face for enough equipment from the Chinese, so that Vietnam can have its own strong armament, and once the Vietnamese have their own armament, will the Chinese still be so good?

In particular, the self-defense and counterattack war against Vietnam that has occurred in history has made Wang Sirui even more vigilant.

Of course, even if there is no such thing, Wang Sirui will not agree to the proposal of the Vietnamese, after all, he is still waiting to empty the whole of Asia and migrate the Chinese to live there, if the Vietnamese are armed, then what will China do next? Is there still a war with Vietnam?

While it will be difficult to clear the whole of Asia, and it seems like an impossible plan, it must be implemented either way, at least in Southeast Asia, where China has absolute control and permanence, and to ensure this, China's neighbors will have to move out.

On August 24, two corps of infantry and an artillery division and an armored division fully occupied the whole of Vietnam, and the Nguyen family was also put under house arrest, but it was not so terrifying, and the Chinese once again deceived the Vietnamese with a white lie.

China wants to help Vietnam expand its territory so that Vietnam is the only country in the surrounding area, thereby reducing the threat to China.

Although this sounds funny, who else in these weak countries around China can threaten China these days? However, the Vietnamese side was still shocked by this news day and night, and the Nguyen family called on the people of the whole country to take action and act as a guide for the troops of Shangguo, after all, the Vietnamese are more adapted to the jungle environment here than the Chinese, and Vietnam's territory is not wide, and cross-border incidents are also frequent.

So they are also very familiar with some of the situations in the vicinity.

On 27 August, the artillery division and one corps and armored division began to march west from Vietnam, while three corps in the rear had followed and attacked Laos and Cambodia from other directions.

In Southeast Asia, there is indeed no country that can become China's opponent, and the facts have proved this, the biggest enemy of the Chinese troops entering Southeast Asia is the environment here, but fortunately, there are a large number of Vietnamese and some local people in various countries who act as guides in order to survive, so the losses of the Chinese army are not large.

And the whole course of the war is also smooth beyond imagination, Cambodia and Laos have no military strength at all, the north and south fronts, defeating the national defense forces of Laos and Cambodia, the Chinese only used two battalions of troops, an armored battalion and an infantry battalion, it took less than two days to occupy the entire Laos and Cambodia.

After occupying these two countries, the Chinese side did not show too much force, and the first order issued was to ask the people to produce safely, without any sense of anxiety, and at the same time, the military will not carry out any form of looting of the locals, once found can be reported, the military will severely punish and compensate. In addition, Laos and Cambodia have also been exempted from taxes for three years, and all the income of the people is also their own.

It is this policy that has allowed these two countries to quickly stabilize, and a group of people have enthusiastically jumped out to act as guides for the Chinese.

In order to conquer these jungle countries in Southeast Asia, the Chinese side has prepared a total of 20 armies, and now only five armies have come.

After the arrival of the follow-up troops, only a small number of troops were left in various places to garrison, and the rest of the troops continued their march towards Thailand.

Thailand's military strength was slightly stronger, but only slightly, they were still no match for the Chinese Empire, and under the blow of motorized troops, the Thai army only held out for less than a week before declaring Thailand completely lost.

In fact, this record is not bad, after all, the Chinese army attacking from the west has the strength of three armies, and two armies are attacking from the north, and the Thai army is not caught off guard at all.

After taking Thailand, the time has come to September, and the Chinese side has begun to divide into two, of which three armies are equipped with an artillery division, one armored division began to attack Malaysia and Singapore along Thailand, and the rest of the troops are marching towards Burma.

Burma is a British colony, so when entering Burma, there was no fighting, similar to Hong Kong, Macau and Vietnam, the Chinese army directly took over the whole of Burma from the British, and this took half a month.

After capturing Burma, the Chinese troops took a half-month rest and will next go to receive India, which is also a British colony and the most important British colony in Asia, although the British are very reluctant, but at this time they have no choice but to cede India to the Chinese.

On 1 October, after half a month's rest, the number of Chinese troops gathered in Burma had reached as many as 10 armies, and at this time the 20 armies that had been prepared in advance had all left the country, except for three armies that were sent to attack the Malay Peninsula, 10 armies formed a vanguard army and continued to march towards India, five armies were deployed in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Burma, and two armies followed behind the vanguard army as reserves.

The reception of India was not very smooth, the Indians still preferred to follow the British, and the British were also good to them, plus some Indian myths caused them to be more willing to believe in the British, so at the beginning, the British army was very happy to withdraw, but the Indians made some resistance to the Chinese army.

However, in the face of strong military power, all resistance was futile, and after a month and a half, China finally took over the whole of India, and more than 300,000 Indians were slaughtered for resistance, and this number continues to increase.

In just over three months, China swept across Southeast Asia, and although most of the region did not encounter any decent resistance, even the territory taken directly from the British, such a speed still surprised the whole world.
