The shelling had just ended, and the armored regiments of the Naval Resistance Army had already broken out of their bunkers.

Behind the weak defensive line of the Maritime Resistance Army, the Naval Resistance Army had already laid out heavy iron cavalry. For this reason, the Maritime Resistance Army has been preparing for several months, of course the little devils can't see it, all the combat vehicles of the Maritime Resistance Army are squatting in the pit, covered with logs, and camouflaged with grass.

At this time, Qin Zhan, the commander of the armored regiment, led the armored regiment and rushed out of the bunker. The armored units of the Naval Resistance Army are much more majestic than the armored clusters of the Japanese army, with 48 Tiger 1 tanks, plus 6 bulldozers, all of which are main battle tanks. However, not a single devil saw such a majestic armored unit, because everything that could be seen was already dead.

Qin Zhan was depressed, the armored unit had been trained for several years, and he had never been able to get a combat opportunity. This time it finally came in handy, and even he saw the Japanese tanks, thinking that his iron cavalry finally had a chance to open meat.

However, the bad boys of the artillery were too bad. The 97 tank of the little devil, no matter how it is said, also calls itself a medium tank, and it was all blown up into scrap metal by a random gun. "You'd save some for the brethren to open meat."

Qin Zhan, who couldn't wait to break out of the defensive line, hoped to find a fish that slipped through the net. But the tank roared angrily, and after rushing for several kilometers, there was not a single Japanese tank that could move. The sharp Tiger 1 tank main gun had long been filled with armor-piercing shells, but there was no suitable target to fire, and it was depressed and depressed.

However, the main task of the armored regiment is not to destroy the Japanese tanks, or even to eliminate the scattered and fleeing Japanese remnants, their main task is to attack and attack.

The armored clusters of the Naval Resistance Army, roaring forward. The remnants of the Japanese army on both sides of the road were simply dismissive. The miscellaneous fish did not use the armoured troops at all, and the thousands of charges of the infantry brethren had begun to crush from south to north.

The armored regiment was not slow, but Qin Zhan still didn't have a chance to fight.

What made Qin Zhan even more depressed was the condition of the Cutler Hill position. Originally, Qin Zhan thought that there would be a battle here.

By the time the armored regiment reached Katler Hill, only three or two shots from tank guns and machine guns had not finished a single chain of bullets, and it had easily rushed through the Cutler Valley.

All of Tanaka's deployments were based on offensive forces, and many of the heavy artillery pieces were even hung on trailers when they were destroyed. Up and down the Japanese army, not a single officer thought of guarding against the counterattack of the naval resistance army.

At Kattler Hill, the Japanese army did not have many troops left. After cutting off the retreat of the Japanese army, the long-range heavy artillery of the Naval Resistance Army bombarded the Cutler Hill position by the way, and the result was very clear, which was what Qin Zhan saw - almost no people survived in the entire position.

This thing can only be blamed on Kuichi Tanaka. He did not even think about the counterattack, and the Japanese army was exhausted and did not build positions at all. The original position of the Naval Resistance Army. But it was facing the defense of the north. And the shells that came from the south. It almost smashed on the head of the unsheltered Japanese army, and the result can be imagined.

The armored regiment continued to rush forward, and it was easy to find a devil camp, but something even more depressing happened to Qin Zhan - with a light blow, the devil surrendered.

You know, in the battles of the previous days. The Naval Resistance Army inflicted seven or eight thousand casualties on the Japanese army, and except for the two or three thousand who died, the other five thousand wounded were all in this devil camp.

This temporary camp made by the Japanese army is just an ordinary village in Ceylon. Almost all of them are wooden houses, where can they stop such a powerful armored force of the Maritime Resistance Army. After being ravaged by tank fire, after a pile of deaths, it wilted.

The legendary Japanese army who swore to the death, Qin Zhan did not see it. The whole process is too suspenseless.

The Japanese infantry were killed in three strikes and five divided by two, and then the military doctors and the wounded all surrendered.

In the stunned eyes of the Japanese prisoners, Qin Zhan continued to advance with the armored regiment, not even leaving a single brother to guard. Anyway, the large troops behind will soon follow, Qin Zhan just made a report to the headquarters, and the rank continued to move forward.

You can't wait, you won't be able to get any merit if you wait.

It's not just the bad boys of the artillery who are vying for the battle with the armored regiment. The Army Aviation Corps and the Strategic Air Force of the Naval Resistance Force were dispatched in a big way today.

By noon, the armored regiment had reached the Butler Hill position.

This is a more dangerous position than the Katler Hill position, with two mountain beams blocking the north-south passage. It was here that Qi Ruixuan fought a battle with the Japanese army, and was promoted to the head of the Xuanjia Regiment for meritorious service.

However, when Qin Zhan arrived at Butel Mountain. Everything in front of him made Qin Zhan even more depressed.

Needless to say, the mountains on both sides of the valley are steaming hot, and the mountains are full of flames that have not yet been extinguished. Such a mountain can't stay at all.

Don't say it, it was robbed of the merits by the bad boys of the Air Force.

In this battle, in addition to using the Soviet Union's tactical thinking of great depth, the naval resistance army also used the German army's blitzkrieg and the US army's air-ground advance. This is the essence of the tactics that were explored in World War II, and Li Guang just put forward a concept, and the staff officers began to explore and perfect it.

I just didn't expect that the artillery bombardment tactics in great depth were too domineering. At the Katrer Hill position, the blitzkrieg of the armored regiment was not put to use.

In fact, the Air Force did not get a chance. As soon as the air force brothers saw that the situation was not good, they would not be able to reap the merits of the war if it was too late. Airplanes have wings and are many times faster than armored regiments.

As a result, Qin Zhan had already seen it. The entire Butara Hill has been ravaged by the Air Force's incendiary bombs.

The Air Force is ruthless.

You must know that in order to prepare for this battle, the Naval Resistance Army deployed more than 100 torpedo planes in Ceylon instead of the dozens of fighters of the Strategic Air Force and the Army Air Force. Don't look at the pilots of these torpedo planes are all rookies, but they don't need precision strikes, covering bombing...... What level of position is needed? As long as you can fly, you can complete the mission.

This was the largest air force operation since the founding of the Maritime Resistance Force. In total, more than 170 aircraft were used, and nearly 200 tons of napalm were dropped at one time.

The position of Butler Hill is not small, but it cannot withstand the ravages of so many napalm. In terms of ammunition dropping intensity, it has already exceeded the intensity of the shelling a few hours ago. In addition, the devils have already heard the news of the annihilation of the army, and the devils have been so ravaged by this unreasonable bombardment. The dead are dead, the crippled are crippled. The last remnants of the Japanese army withdrew to Monal.

Qin Zhan led the armored regiment and attacked hundreds of kilometers. I didn't get any combat exploits, and I was so angry that I almost vomited blood.

What's even more infuriating is that the next pass, Monal, is not a dish that the armored forces can eat. No matter how good the tank is, it can't climb the mountains, and there are strong soldiers in the air, but they can only sigh.

A few days later, Qin Zhan's armored regiment finally played a role. The armored regiment made a detour by sea to the vicinity of the Japanese military port of Trincomalee. In a fierce battle, he eliminated an infantry brigade of the Japanese army, captured the Trincomalee military port from behind, and captured countless baggage, ammunition, weapons and equipment.

As the saying goes, the defeat of the army is like a mountain, and the naval resistance army is victorious. Even the miscellaneous cards of the Burmese army dared to chase the Japanese army and fight all over the mountains. Under the hurricane of the great victory, the advance of the naval resistance army was like a bamboo. Step by step.

What is a coordinated army-air march? The offensive of the Naval Resistance Army is. The air power of the Naval Resistance Army in Ceylon at this time was unprecedentedly strong. More than 170 warplanes of various types are ready to provide reinforcements to the Army brethren. The platoon-level troops can directly call for air support, such a luxurious configuration, not to mention the little devils, even the United States cannot do it now. Coupled with the "invincible pill" attack of the Ceylon army on the ground, the Japanese army was not elite, except for defeat or retreat.

Fighting throughout Ceylon. In the past few days, it is very appropriate to describe it as overwhelming.

By the 19th, the Naval Resistance Army and the Burmese Army had besieged the remnants of the Japanese army in ...... Mountain. Of the more than 30,000 Japanese troops, there were less than 6,000 troops left. Major General Chestnut Flower, commander of the 21st Independent Mixed Brigade, was lucky not to be killed, and was besieged by the Naval Resistance Army in Monal Hill with thousands of remnants.

The war has come to this point. The Maritime Resistance Army is no longer in a hurry. Having lost all the ports, what could the Japanese army do if they had reinforcements?

What's more, the current means of dealing with the Japanese fleet by the Naval Resistance Force are no longer the same as the embarrassment of the previous stage. There are more than 170 fighters alone, and now there are two or three little devil aircraft carriers, and the naval resistance forces are not afraid at all.

After two days, the chestnut peanuts in Shanxian County were a little unbearable, and they actually launched a decisive charge. The Naval Resistance Army is really an eye-opener, the little devils can actually play this kind of life-killing tactic, and the devils are bare-chested, holding bayonets and screaming and charging.

Such desperate tactics may still have a mental shock to the recruits, but for an army like the Navy Resistance Army, which takes the elite route, it is almost useless at all. In the face of the rain of machine-gun fire, there was only one way to die.

After the death of a large number of devils, Chestnut Peanut in Shan County stopped charging, so he had to hide in the mountains and wait for help.

In the course of the decisive battle, the Black Kunlun Battalion of the Naval Resistance Army did not come in handy. However, Major Yan Jing, the special staff officer of the Black Kunlun Battalion, came up with an idea at this time and took the Monal Mountain, where the Japanese army was entrenched, in one fell swoop.

The trick is a scoundrel.

The Naval Resistance Army did not kill prisoners, but refused to spend money on treatment, and even sent thousands of Japanese prisoners to the foot of Monal Mountain very humanely. These Japanese prisoners were all wounded, and they were relatively heavy.

Major General Chestnut Nuts in Shanxian did not have a few hairs in the first place, and he was made of such a large group of wounded soldiers without fighting spirit. If you want to talk about Monale Mountain, there are fortifications built by the British, and there are plenty of weapons and ammunition, if the naval resistance army attacks strongly, not to mention how much time it takes, just casualties and consumption will not be able to stand it.

Major Yanjing made this move: In just five days, Major General Lihua of Shanxian raised the flag and surrendered. If they don't surrender, I'm afraid that a few of the thousands of wounded soldiers won't survive. There was food in the mountain fortifications, as well as weapons and ammunition. But there is no medicine and no doctors, and hundreds of people die a day, which is a kind of torture for the little devils.

In fact, there is a more important point why the chestnut peanut in Shanxian surrendered. That is, the Japanese army radio station could not get in touch with Singapore.

The devils have high-power radios, but unfortunately these radios were either bombed or captured by the Navy. Only a few 25-watt radios remained, that is, they could communicate for 3,500 kilometers. Ceylon is not large, and this kind of radio station is enough for the army to fight and to communicate with each other.

However, Singapore and Ceylon are 2,700 kilometers away, and there are no high-power radios, so there is no communication at all.

If there is no contact, then Singapore will not know the situation in Ceylon, and then there will be no reinforcements. However, the Naval Resistance Army simply besieged but did not attack, but only planted mines everywhere to put on a posture of long-term siege.

Chestnut peanuts in Shan County have grain to eat. But the problem is that you can't eat for many days, and if you can't afford to last for a month, all the devils will have to drink the northwest wind.

Chestnut Peanut is in his fifties and wants to live two more days. And most of his subordinates are new soldiers, and a group of remnants of the defeated soldiers cry all day long, and they simply can't muster up the courage to continue fighting with the Naval Resistance Army. Morale dropped to freezing point within a few days.

Didn't you say that the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire swore to the death? Bullshit. There may be a few suicides, but most of the devils are still afraid of pain, especially the miserable condition of the wounded soldiers, which makes the devils even more afraid. If it was the elite of the Japanese army at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, they might rather die than surrender, but the new recruits led by Chestnut Flower in Shan County were weak in combat. Weaker-willed.

In this way, more than 6,000 people under Major General Lihua surrendered on October 29.

Li Guang commented: I look too high on Little Japan.

The three most quintessential killing moves of World War II -- great depth, blitzkrieg, and air-ground coordinated march, are really killing chickens and knives against this group of Japanese troops. When the plan was first made. The most ideal state of war was envisaged, but the actual course of the battle. It turned out to be even smoother than ideal. An officer of the Naval Resistance Army. Including Li Guang, he really didn't expect the victory to come so quickly.

The officers and men of the Maritime Resistance War did not have much experience in warfare, and they did not have a deep enough understanding of their own strength and the quality of the Japanese army. After this battle, the superior mentality of the Naval Resistance Army in the face of the Japanese army was completely established.

As the old proverb goes: Three battles become an army.

The first major war of the Naval Resistance Army should be regarded as a low-intensity war in Somalia. The second battle should be regarded as the battle for the founding of the country on Datang Island. The third battle was the Battle of Ceylon. Now, the mentality of the whole army of the Naval Resistance Army has been completely changed, and one is strong in heart. Equipped armies have been honed and proven to be presented to the world.

The crushing defeat in Ceylon caused a monstrous wave within the Japanese army.

The military and political circles were spitting over this fiasco, and the Japanese people did not know about such a fiasco.

The reason why the Japanese army did not have reinforcements. Not exactly the reason for not preparing reinforcements. The most important thing is the relationship of communication.

As early as the 11th, when the naval resistance army counterattacked, the high-power radio stations of the Japanese army were completely destroyed. In other words, on the 11th, the Japanese Southern Army Command was not able to get information about Ceylon.

Communications were cut off, and the Japanese were uneasy. However, most people still think that weather conditions affect the transmission of radio waves.

On the 16th, the Maritime Resistance Army recaptured Colombo, and on the 17th, the Maritime Resistance Army recaptured the Trincomalee Military Port.

On the 18th, the Maritime Resistance Army had besieged the chestnut peanut in Shanxian to ...... Mountain.

Although the Japanese army was not completely wiped out, the Naval Resistance Army had already used the radio to announce the victory to the world: the Naval Resistance Army had defeated four divisions of the Japanese army head-on (one large and three small, and the propaganda had a braggart component. The main force of the Japanese army will be completely annihilated, and the remnants will be swept away in the near future. Killed Lieutenant General Kuichi Tanaka, commander of the 38th Japanese Army.

At this moment, the Japanese army finally knew about the battle situation in Ceylon, and all of a sudden a little luck was completely erased, and they were all dumbfounded.

This kind of strategic reversal, no one wanted. The proud devils even thought that the Naval Resistance Army was lying about the war.

How so?

In the early morning of the 11th, Tanaka Kuichi also sent back a telegram that it was the Japanese army that launched a large-scale attack and was preparing to take Tang Port in one fell swoop.

How did it lose in the blink of an eye, and it was a fiasco. Even the commander died, and he died neatly. That's more than 30,000 troops, and even killing pigs has to be killed for a few days.

The Emperor of Japan, Hirohito, learned that the black face.

Ceylon has become a sad place for Japan.

Before and after, the Japanese army buried nearly 60,000 troops in Ceylon. In October of '42, such casualties were second only to those of the Japanese on the battlefield in China.

The devil has suffered such a big loss, and it is not the devil's style not to retaliate. Japan, from the emperor to the base camp to the Southern Army, all gritted their teeth:

Troop transfer.

However, the transfer of troops requires at least 100,000 troops, and 30,000 or 20,000 troops are not enough for the naval resistance army.

100,000 people, it's really really hard to tune. No matter how crazy the Japanese army is, it can't take out 100,000 troops at once. The territory occupied by the Japanese army was too large, and there was a shortage of major generals everywhere, and the only troops that could be drawn were only the Eastern Army.

Among the Japanese army, the Kwantung Army was the most elite part. However, the Japanese army has already transferred a large number of elite troops of the Kwantung Army to open up the South Seas, and many units of the Kwantung Army are now full of new recruits, and their combat effectiveness has seriously declined.

And what is the nature of the Kwantung Army for Japan?

The Kwantung Army had to deal with the Soviet Union in the north, and it was also the most important reserve force of Japan, both as a reserve force for the Chinese battlefield and as a reserve force for the defense of the Japanese mainland.

The transfer of 100,000 troops at once is related to all aspects, and the bargaining begins immediately.

It was about the glory of the Imperial Japanese Army, and Japan still began to transfer troops. No matter how hard Japan tries, the transfer of troops is also a very complicated matter, and no matter how fast it is, it will take a month.

In fact, it was not until mid-December that these troops arrived one after another. But by that time, the Japanese Navy had a new problem - the fleet could not draw enough forces.

In fact, it is not only the Japanese Navy that has new problems, but also the Japanese Army's wars in New Guinea and Kuah.

With the emergence of a series of problems, the Japanese army's retaliation plan ended in nothing, and in the end, no one even mentioned it. Anyway, it was useless to mention it, it was purely to smear the faces of the commanders, and if you were well-behaved, you chose to be an ostrich, and buried your head in the sand, as if this incident did not happen.

There were also Japanese officers who were not open-eyed, who continued to clamore for an attack on Ceylon for revenge. General Shouichi Terauchi gently snorted: Kuah Island is in need of such a warrior. Yes, he was sent to Kuah Island and the U.S. military to the death. What is Kuah? It is said that the Japanese pronunciation of Kuah Island is the same as hunger, and it is not a war to go there, it is purely starvation, and these devils suffer. (To be continued......)
