Garbenda, the highest Wood Hill Heights on the east bank of the Hooghley River. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Japanese counterattack came faster than expected.

More than two Japanese troops stationed in the eastern barracks of Raipur, under the leadership of the commander Takeda Naoshi Nakasa, quickly pounced on the high ground.

** Mushan Heights and the attached ports below have always belonged to the territory of the navy, and the river defense units of the navy, which like to do business, do not want the army to get involved in their own internal affairs at all, and Takeda Naozhi, as the captain of the Raibull garrison, is too lazy to care about their life or death.

However, since the early morning, from the north of Garbida City to the west of the **Mushan Heights, there are violent explosions, especially the dense gunfire from the **Mushan is particularly worrying, there is less than ten kilometers away from the Raibul military camp, if you ignore it, what happens to the peak will definitely be held responsible, so although he is unwilling, Wu: Tian Shangzhi can only rush to the ** troops, and go to the rescue.

After more than an hour's march, the Japanese army reached the bottom of the hill two kilometers in front of the **wood heights.

Takeda Naoji carefully observed the environment around him, and found that there were many craters near and far, many places were smoking on the 1st, and many trees were like burning torches, and the flames were flickering on the day, and he immediately thought that he must have experienced a tragic battle here, although he didn't know who won in the end, but from the current situation, it was better to seize the high ground first and then find out the truth, so he sent two squadrons of Japanese troops to rush to the current main peak position.

There was silence in the entire ** wood heights, and the Japanese soldiers of the two squadrons, holding bayonet Type 38 rifles, quickly approached the main peak position.

Naoshi Takeda took a telescope and looked closely, trying to find some clues, but unfortunately found nothing.

At this moment, Takeda Naoshi heard the sound of dense gunfire coming from the main peak position, mixed with a strange sound of tearing oilcloth, and saw that from the high positions and some fortresses that had not yet collapsed, tongues of fire were spitting out bullets and rain of bullets, sweeping the attacking Japanese soldiers to the ground like weeds.

This sudden blow was no different from a massacre, most of the devils of the two squadrons were beaten into a sieve by the condescending rain of bullets, and a few people fell to the ground, dodging the rain of bullets, and blindly shooting around, and the Japanese soldiers' bloodless attempt to take the ** Mushan Heights has thus failed.

However, this round of blows came and went quickly, and the gunfire stopped abruptly, almost giving Takeda Naoshi an illusion, as if everything had never happened, but the dense corpses that fell in front of him clearly reminded Takeda Naoshi that this is real, and the emperor ** team has indeed suffered a painful blow!

"Baga! The enemy is too cunning! ”

Takeda Naoshi was furious, and in his binoculars, the high ground in front of him was quiet, and he didn't even see a ghost.

However, this scene gave Takeda Naoshi a wrong message, he thought that the opponent's troops should not be many, or suffered heavy casualties in the previous attack, otherwise he would not be so sneaky, so he ordered another attack.

Two squadrons of Japanese troops entered the battle again, they converged with the devils who survived in front, and fearlessly attacked the top of the hill in front of them in a straggler line, mountain artillery, field artillery, pursuit guns, and grenadiers opened fire one after another, but there was no one on the top of the mountain, and it was terrifyingly calm!

At this time, on the high ground on both sides of the mountain, a dense shooting suddenly sounded again, and this time it joined, g. ~~ The sonata of a mountain howitzer.

Almost instantly, a grenade with a proximity fuse exploded more than ten meters above the Japanese army, and dozens of fireballs flew out of the sky with steel balls and fragments.

Naoshi Takeda roared angrily, cursing loudly and vowing to look good at his enemies. At this moment, the rumbling sound of a tank engine suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Could it be the Empire's chariot troops?" Just as Naoshi Takeda turned his head to look at it with joy, a cannonball landed beside him, and then his mind went blank.

It turned out that when the Japanese army attacked, the paratroopers' tanks had already detoured to the rear of the Japanese army, and the 32 Type 4 airborne tanks that had been fully formed after repairing the malfunction suddenly came out of the enemy's rear and blew up the pieces of Takeda Naozhi, who was commanding the battle in the rear, as soon as possible.

The unforgiving Type 4 airborne tanks were like tigers rushing into the flock, trampling frantically, hissing, and devouring the lives of the devils by all means.

The battle ended in half an hour, and more than 2,000 devils were killed.

At this time, Ling Xing had already learned through the radio that the battle in Calcutta was going well, and he wondered in his heart that there were still those Japanese troops nearby who would run to die.

Shah Jaalal military airfield, fifteen kilometers north of Dhaka city.

As the supreme commander of this airport, Aoki Ryoichi Sasa was extremely depressed for a long time. Since the start of the war last month, the airport has been constantly bombed by the Anjia Air Force, and it has been feared day and night, and once the airport is damaged, the runway must be rested as soon as possible.

However, there were more dead and wounded on the runway than those killed by the bombing, and it is not known what kind of aerial bombs were used by the An Jiajun, and an unknown number of unexploded bombs were left on the runway that was blown up beyond recognition, which posed a huge threat to the rest and recuperation work.

What is particularly hateful is that he tried his best to organize people to repair the runway so that it was barely able to take off and land planes, and the Anjiajun Air Force came to make trouble. In the continuous bombardment, the anti-aircraft positions around the Shah Jalal military airfield have been razed to the ground, and many anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns have become scrap metal.

The opponent is like having clairvoyance and ears, and knows the deployment of the Imperial Air Forces well, and even the spare runways built elsewhere have been destroyed! I don't know how the army and navy do it, they can't suppress their opponents at all, and they are so tired that they have almost become professional sappers, living only to build runways!

"Hey, if only there were those planes that could take off and land without a runway!" Every time Ryoichi Aoki sighed like this, but he knew it was impossible.

It was the darkest hour before dawn, and Ryoichi Aoki, who had worked hard all night, had just commanded! The soldier repaired the runway, and his whole heart was relieved, and he was so tired that he collapsed to the ground, and before he could spread out his body and relax, he heard the roar of the airplane motor in his ears.

Aoki Ryoichi sighed in his heart, stood up with fatigue, and shouted at the ghost soldiers who were paralyzed on the ground to hide quickly.

Hearing the terrible sound of the air defense siren, the anti-aircraft guns hidden underground were quickly pushed out by the air defense soldiers, preparing to shoot down the enemy fighters in the sky in order to vent the pent-up anger in their hearts for days.

However, the searchlight on the ground had just been turned on, and before the target could be locked, it had already been bombarded by dense aerial bombs, and one anti-aircraft gun after another was trying to find it, and the searchlight was shattered in the violent explosion.

The anti-aircraft artillerymen could only reluctantly fire into the air, but they did not expect that the spitting tongues of fire would reveal their position.

Soon, the location of the anti-aircraft guns was covered by aerial bombs, hundreds of kilograms of aerial bombs fell one after another, and in the huge fire generated by the explosion, the devils instantly turned into stumps and broken arms, and the high-flying metal parts and shrapnel continued to rub, turning these flesh and blood into minced flesh again, and scattering them to the ground together with the flying soil.

At this time, Ryoichi Aoki and the devil soldiers had already gone to hide away from the runway of the airfield, and according to past experience, the enemy was only interested in the runway and the oil depot, and would not bomb other places.

But soon they found out that empiricism killed people, and this time, bombs rained down on their hiding place, and staged a very tragic scene.

It turned out that this time the fighters did not bomb the runway and oil depots, but struck at the barracks and the dormitory and control tower of the airport, and the intensive bombing caused the earth to tremble, and Aoki Ryoichi, who was lucky enough to escape, changed five or six places in a row to hide, and finally became exhausted, and simply lay on the grass of the airport to watch the performance of the air force of the Anjia Army in the air.

At this time, a glimmer of dawn appeared in the sky, and with this light, Aoki Ryoichi finally saw the plane he had been hoping for without a runway to take off and off, sixteen helicopters flew by at low altitude, shooting wildly at those fleeing Japanese troops, in the sky, huge shadows floated by, and then countless parachutes fell in the air, which was the airship brigade in the airborne.

The paratroopers quickly fell to the ground and, under the cover of helicopters, began to take control of all parts of the airfield.

Extremely tired, Ryoichi Aoki voluntarily raised his hand to surrender and shouted in the Chinese he had learned, "Willing to join forces with the An Jiajun ......", which saved him by luck. Ryoichi Aoki took the initiative to report all the information about the airfield to these officers and men in peculiar costumes, weapons, and movements, so that our paratroopers could completely control the entire airfield without much effort.

A quarter of an hour later, the first wave of large transport planes landed, bringing with them a large number of fresh troops, and then our troops spread around the city of Dhaka with the Shah Jaalal military airfield as the center.

Chittagong Airport, located on the peninsula on the west bank of the Gornopuri estuary.

The An Jia Army Air Force succeeded in capturing the airfield at dawn, but then the situation was not as rosy as the Kolkata and Dhaka airports.

The Japanese army had a separate infantry brigade stationed in Chittagong, and after hearing the fierce gunfire coming from the direction of the airfield, the devils quickly swooped down on the airfield in the southeast through the vast peninsula.

Due to the difficulty of mobilization, the heavy artillery wing attached to the independent infantry brigade could not keep up in time, and the Japanese commander Noguchi Province No. 2 sent an infantry brigade to attack as soon as possible in order to find out the reality of the Anjia army occupying the airfield.

The Japanese army used more than 20 anti-DP 92 infantry guns to launch artillery attacks on the outlying positions of the airport, and then the infantry pulled up a skirmish line and slowly approached the airport.

The devils did not expect that after occupying the airport, the paratroopers would mine the perimeter of the airport, so the devil soldiers who stepped into the minefield were killed by hundreds of people in the first place. The captain of the devil brigade in charge of the attack hurriedly stopped the soldiers who had entered the minefield from moving, and then summoned sappers to carry out demining operations.

The An Jiajun used anti-detection mines such as lookout materials and ceramics, and the unlucky sappers were unable to use metal detectors to clear mines, and they were killed by many of them. At this time, with the continuous take-off and landing of large transport planes in the airfield, our officers and men and combat materials were strengthened, but the commander of the airborne force did not immediately order the troops to launch a counterattack, but admired the devils' difficult trek with great interest.

Due to the fact that there were hundreds of people in the minefield, the devil artillery could not use artillery to clear the mines, so they could only send sappers again to prepare to rescue the devils who were trapped in the minefield, and then use the 92 infantry artillery to clear the mines.

With their previous experience, the Devil Sappers simply abandoned metal detectors and used manual demining.

Although the devils are very cautious, but there are still mines exploding, every time the mines sound, it is a stimulus to other sappers who participate in the mine-clearing work, and finally the second major general of Noguchi Province was ruthless, and sent several daredevils, wrapped in a thick quilt to roll mines, for a while the explosions sounded on the road, and with the death of the devil soldiers who rolled the mines, a passage was finally discharged in the minefield.

However, our army has not given the Japanese army a chance to react, and the sniper rifles have spoken, and the 12.7mm bullets, no bullets, have broken the devils' waists, or pierced a terrible hole in the chest, or directly smashed their heads into a rotten watermelon.

The devil soldiers in the minefield were terrified, desperate to flee backwards, a platoon of mortars overwhelmingly hit the sky, and less than a third of the devils in the last brigade fled back.

This scene greatly stimulated Noguchi Shuji, and he immediately ordered the artillery to return fire, but after seeing that the continuous infantry artillery shelling had no effect due to the short range, he ordered the shells to fall on the minefield. As the explosions in the minefield continued to sound, the devils attacked again, and when they got closer and closer to the positions outside the airfield, the dense pursuit guns attacked again, mixed with general-purpose machine guns and automatic rifles, and the devils cried wolf and retreated again.

Seeing this, the second major general of Noguchi Province had to order a temporary truce and wait for artillery to help in the battle.

Half an hour later, the heavy artillery wing attached to Chittagong finally arrived, and Noguchi was overjoyed and ordered an attack again.

The Japanese army has twenty-four doors and ninety-six styles, blades. ~~ Field howitzers spewed out furious fire, and the terrifying rumble of artillery rang out continuously over the outlying positions of Chittagong Airport. , Blade NP caliber grenades, the power is so great that ordinary people can hardly imagine, in an open area, often a shell falls, and all living things within a radius of more than a few tens of meters will be torn to pieces.

A large group of Japanese troops, howling and attacking again, tried to rush into the airfield in one fell swoop behind the extended artillery fire, and wiped out the squadron that occupied the airfield in one fell swoop. (Baidu Peso U.......) This a-day ka. …… C Shan update first, super stable! )

However, the devil's nightmare really came, and as time passed, the transport planes sent a large number of war materials, including 12 of them, which were millimeter old rocket launchers.

Dense rockets, like flying fire, loomed over the Japanese artillery positions, and at the same time, attack planes and helicopters, which were parked at the airfield filled with fuel and ammunition, took off one after another and stormed the Japanese army.

On the Japanese position, there was a dense sound of rocket explosions, and the attack planes circled over the Japanese artillery positions, and when they found any remaining targets, they rushed over and threw aerial bombs, while the armed helicopters used rockets to hit the Japanese troops who were piled up from a long distance, and the "Vulcan" machine guns frantically rotated the barrels of their guns, throwing out the dense rain of bullets, killing and injuring all the enemies!

At this time, there was a tremor from the earth, the roar of the tank motor came, and more than 30 Type 4 airborne tanks appeared in the devil's field of vision, the tracks crushed the ground, flying up fog-like dust, and the millimeter artillery raised its muzzle in the rolling dust and mist, constantly spitting out shells, and the BO bomber also ran to make fun at this time, specifically looking for the Japanese army's firepower to strike, for a while, the devil's flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the corpses were all over the field.

An hour later, the Japanese army was basically wiped out by the officers and men of Anjia who coordinated air-ground, infantry-tank and tank-artillery. As transport planes continued to arrive and the troops moved quickly towards Chittagong, the occupation of the city and port was only a matter of time before the Japanese army was largely wiped out in this area.

Gyeongnam City Airport.

It was also in a state of imminent combat when air raids and airdrops were launched in the East Indies.

Under the bright lights, there were people running everywhere, and the figures of sweaty and exhausted logistics officers and soldiers could be seen everywhere. In the huge airport, the mountains of materials need to be transported, the dense flow of people like ant colonies needs to be dispatched, and Lieutenant General Chang Baofang, director of the General Logistics Department, is exhausted, and there is a tense and solemn atmosphere in the sky above the airport.

This airport, which was re-planned and built on the basis of the former Bangkok military airport in 38 years, covers an area of about 50 square kilometers, has 12 advanced modern runways, can take off and land all the current large transport planes and heavy bombers, and its cargo handling capacity ranks first in the world. Due to the airport's rail link to the metropolitan city of South China, it became the largest port for transporting ammunition and supplies to the front lines in Malaya, Myanmar and India.

Chang Baofang was indeed exhausted, the returning transport plane needed to be overhauled and refueled, the pilot needed a simple rest, and the materials and personnel in the airport urgently needed to be transported to the front line, all of which needed to be coordinated by the officers and men of the logistics department. When people talk about war, they think more of the soldiers who are charging at the front line, and who can think of the hardships and tiredness of the logistics officers and soldiers?

Air Force Commander General Huang Yuyi also did not sleep all night, and after condolences to the pilots, he saw Chang Baofang on the tarmac directing the loading of goods into the transport plane, his heart moved, strode forward, walked to Chang Baofang's side and asked: "Old Chang, our airborne troops are fighting behind enemy lines, can the materials be guaranteed?" ”

"Absolutely!"

Chang Baofang turned around and saw that it was Huang Yuyi, rubbed his face tiredly, and continued: "This time we used two hundred ANP large transport planes with a load of 21.5 tons, and one hundred VI-4 transport planes with a total load of 80 tons, as long as we don't encounter the main force of the Japanese army in the battle, such a supply is enough!" Moreover, in addition to this, we have 50 airships with a tonnage of up to 150 tons to rush to transport supplies, and from that point of view, there will be no logistical problems! ”

"Chang, this time it's really hard for you! However, there are so many generals and colonels in the General Logistics Department, why is it your turn to go out in person? Look at how tired you look, you haven't rested for a few days, right? Huang Yuyi asked with concern.

"No way!"

Chang Baofang shook his head: "Now the railway and highway supplies for the preparation of a battle line have already occupied a large number of personnel, and this time the task was issued very suddenly, and there was no extra manpower at all, so I had to put on the battle myself!" However, as long as it goes smoothly today, the next work can be completed step by step, and there is no need to work so hard! ”

Speaking of this, Chang Baofang raised his wrinkled face and watched the transport planes flying into the sky, with a proud smile on his face.

Huang Yuyi looked at Chang Baofang's line of sight, and there was a burst of pride in his heart, patted Chang Baofang's shoulder, and strode away.
