Yangon, Ceylon's "West Province" on the southeast peninsula, is a famous city on the coastline of the Indian Ocean. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe city has now become the front line, and countless defensive positions have long been arranged.

Leaning against his trench, a Ceylonese soldier looked out at the jungle in the distance. A few hours earlier, they had upgraded their security level, and all the soldiers had been sent to the trenches to stand by.

On the position where there was still talking and laughing just now, as a two-winged Ming Empire reconnaissance plane flew by, it became silent. Everyone was nervous because they had just learned that the enemy was really so close.

Originally, Yangon was a city close to the rear, and the closest Ming Empire army to here was a 2,000-strong Ming Empire garrison stationed in Chittagong.

When the British fleet attacked Chittagong, Ceylon sent 5,000 men to bloody Chittagong and capture Chittagong, which was no longer distinguishable from the ruins.

They thought they would be able to stay in Chittagong for as long as possible, and even turn it into Ceylon territory permanently.

Unexpectedly, in less than a month, they retreated from Chittagong all the way back to Yangon.

And now, as soldiers of Ceylon, they no longer have the luxury of occupying some distant Chittagong, and now they are praying, praying that they will be able to hold Yangon and get out of here alive......

"You...... What do you hear? Looking at his comrades beside him, the Ceylon soldier frowned and asked.

His comrade-in-arms shook his head, nodded again, and said, "Huh? I haven't heard it just now, but if you listen carefully, there's really a sound......"

"The enemy is attacking! The enemy is attacking! "The platoon commander walked along the trench with his rifle on his back and informed every soldier that the battle had begun.

The sound of small fragments was the sound of the Ming Empire's army rushing out of the woods and kicking off the battle in the distance, in the other direction.

Because of the distance, the gunshots, which were so dense that they made people's scalps tingle, turned into a small sound when they arrived here. Soon, however, the gunfire became louder and more audible.

The soldiers of the Ming Empire were attacking, and the Ceylon soldiers leaning on the trenches were nervously holding their weapons, waiting for their positions, and they became noisy.

In the jungle opposite, the leaves began to shake, and as a small sapling was violently knocked down, a No. 2 tank appeared in front of the Ceylon defenders.

The size, which was larger than the tanks of Ceylon, brought great psychological pressure to the defenders of Ceylon. When all the soldiers saw tank No. 2, they couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Of course, this is definitely not the only Ming Empire tank to break out of the woods, it is only the first. Soon, the second and third cars also rushed out, and it seemed that there were more to come.

Following these tanks were dense with infantry of the Ming Empire. The infantry stooped and walked cautiously, dodging bullets that might come at them.

"Aim! Then fire! On the position, the platoon commander gave the order to open fire loudly, and he himself used his rifle to aim at a tank and pulled the trigger.

His bullet hit the tank's front armor plate, leaving a white mark on it before it flew into the sky.

More bullets hit the tank, flying sparks in one piece. But these sturdy steel monsters just didn't stop, and they still drove forward gracefully, getting closer and closer to the position.

As if finding a suitable angle to fire, tongues of fire erupted from a heavy machine-gun emplacement. The tracer bullet drew a straight line and flew to the side of the tank of the Ming Empire.

Because of the angle, this strafing shot killed many soldiers of the Ming Empire who were densely packed behind the tank at once. A dozen soldiers fell, and more followed.

Soon, the coaxial machine gun on the No. 2 tank of the Ming Empire strafed this position. The entire position was covered in a cloud of white smoke.

It didn't take long for the strafing coaxial machine gun to stop, and then the tank's 50 mm main gun erupted in flames.

A huge explosion rolled over the positions in Ceylon, and the entire heavy machine-gun position was enveloped in flames. When the Ceylonese soldiers in the trenches on both sides rushed into the machine-gun positions to save people, they found that there were no more people alive inside.

The ammunition box overturned to the ground, and the machine gun was already a pile of scrap metal. The two archers, and the five or six soldiers who were responsible for covering them, lay in pools of blood without a sound.

The battle went on brutally, and the defenders of Ceylon fought against the steel of the Ming Empire with flesh and blood. Position after position changed hands, and the collapse of the defenders seemed only a matter of time.

Looking at the camera, his own soldiers braved the rain of bullets and bullets, jumped over the tank and into the enemy's trenches; Looking at the camera, his soldiers erected a dragon flag and shouted long live; Looking at the camera, his own soldiers fell, and more soldiers rushed up to block the view......

Sima Mingwei put down the binoculars in his hand, and the expression on his face was not joyful, nor did he have any pity. He threw the telescope to his men and turned away from the makeshift observation post.

Not far behind him, several cars and armored vehicles were parked, and further afield, there were tents and huge radio antennas more than five meters high.

The old general walked to his car with his hands behind his back before stopping: "I order your troops, before nightfall today, must take the outer positions!" ”

"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! "The division commander who received the order was the commander of the Fifth Division of the Praetorian Guard. can be selected as the commander of the 5th Division of the Praetorian Guard, of course, he is also from Jinyiwei.

can hang the title of Praetorian Guard, and naturally it is also a new type of army trained with Wang Jue's training rules. After giving Sima Mingwei a promise, the division commander pulled out the long knife on his waist: "Praetorian Guard! Charge with me! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! ”

It was also difficult for Sima Mingwei, he hurried and hurried, and finally rushed to the periphery of Yangon before the time requested by Wang Jue.

But as soon as I arrived here, I heard the news of the outbreak of the naval battle on Luzon. Of course, he knew what it meant to attack in the face of the Ming Empire's naval inferiority, so he really wanted to use his own battle to share even a thousandth of the pressure for Chu and him.

Because, as a general in Ge Tianzhang's era, he and Chu not only knew each other, but could also be said to be close friends......
