The next day, half an hour before Chen Shao stepped into the confinement cell, he received a report on the results of the mackerel squad's operations. In this regard, he can only enter the confinement room with a trace of regret.

Through this lesson, at least Chen Shao and the Chinese top leadership understand that among the people, there have been some traces of decay. Regardless of how the two owners of this cargo ship were bought before, such a situation has already arisen, and it is difficult to guarantee that no one like this has been bought by Japanese agents.

It's a very hidden front, like an underground pipe in a big city, and few people go down to see it in real terms.

Even Chen Shao in the past rarely paid attention to this area, but he underestimated the greed of some people, thinking that he could restrain the people of the world with normal morality, personality and self-esteem. At this point, Chen Shao miscalculated.

Next, Xia Mengyu's busyness began, and a large number of spies entered various important industries, especially for some individual enterprises such as self-employed people in important sectors, transportation industry and export merchants, from their social circles to bank account supervision, to find out the black sheep that are likely to be hidden in them.

The covert front naturally needs professionals who understand the means of concealment to deal with.

In addition to the covert fronts, the fighting in the south began to become more intense. The attacking fleet has been withdrawn to its original home port for repairs. The other fleet is the task of replacing the attack fleet, the remaining main force of the South China Sea Fleet. After the attack fleet has finished recuperation, it will take over the blockade of the South China Sea that the South China Sea Fleet is responsible for.

After three days of confinement in Chen Shao. The main force of the South China Sea Fleet was dispatched to protect the landing fleet, the logistics fleet, and the maintenance and medical support fleet, and more than 300 ships of various types sailed to the Pacific Ocean to carry out the unfinished tasks of the attack fleet. Capture the Mariana Islands.

In the sky above the Southeast Asian theater of operations, three days have passed since the war in Chiang Mai, and the city of Chiang Mai, which was originally defended by a city-state, can no longer find its original appearance at this moment. China's artillery strikes for three consecutive days have already taken one of the few cities in Southeast Asia. The city of Chiang Mai was reduced to ruins.

In ruins. There was no longer a single piece of rubble intact, and all the inhabitants of the streets were gone, and the strong smell of gunpowder smoke was there. It didn't go away for a long time.

Three days. Artillery in the Southeast Asian theater of operations in China. The Air Force, in a row, fired a total of more than 5,000 tons of artillery and aerial bombs at Chiang Mai. Not to mention the people in the city, even the rats and earthworms hiding in the ground. I don't know how many times I've died.

However, after three days of shelling, the Chinese army still did not attack, and the three active infantry divisions, with the cooperation of the three infantry divisions of the second-line troops, tightly surrounded Chiang Mai and held the Japanese 14th Front Army inside.

The remaining main force of the Sixth Army bypassed Chiang Mai and advanced towards the Malay Peninsula, while the second-line troops from Vietnam and Laos did not stop for a moment, but continued to advance southward step by step.

The first of the latest task details handed over to Du Yuming, commander of the Southeast Asian Theater, is that the war from Southeast Asia to the Malay Peninsula must be ended before the end of winter, and all the little devils must be driven down to the South China Sea to feed the fish.

In the jungle war, the opponent is still small Japan, whose defense is becoming more and more perfect, and the latest task makes the pressure on Du Yuming's shoulders even heavier.

However, with the large-scale take-off and landing of the Kunpeng transport plane, a large number of lethal weapons were brought in, which made Du Yuming's confidence in completing this task swell a lot. It wasn't that he didn't have the confidence to complete it before, but after adding these weapons, his confidence was even greater.

On the third day of the shelling of Chiang Mai, the air divisions belonging to the Southeast Asian Theater also officially completed all preparations, and today they will remove the "rats" from the fields of Chiang Mai in one fell swoop. Through their rat nests, through their rat holes, kill the rats inside.

With a take-off order, the first batch of twenty-four Djinn bombers climbed high into the air with a huge roar, and under the impetus of four huge propeller engines, they left Yangon and flew towards the eastern sky.

In an underground bunker in Chiang Mai.

"Move fast! The Chinese are about to attack, and we must speed up and fortify strong enough to withstand their attack! A Japanese soldier Cao Zheng cursed loudly at his soldiers, who were collecting all the resources they could use from the rubble, such as house doors, wardrobes, chests, furniture, etc., and transported them back to the underground bunker to reinforce the fortifications that had been torn apart by the bombing.

On the outskirts of Chiang Mai, the Japanese troops assigned here are intensifying their fortifications. At the beginning, the Japanese army fought in Southeast Asia both crazy and smooth, and along the way, Japan basically attacked the British and French defenses. Now in the same place, they have to face a completely different situation. No matter how many sandbags there were in the fortifications, they all felt a serious shortage. There is no other way but to build the fortifications with something else that can be replaced. Pushing closets and crates open and filling them with dirt and stones is a sandbag alternative that can prevent bullets from penetrating bullets, a method they have learned recently.

If it weren't for the fact that all the wood around them had been cut down, they wouldn't have needed anything like this. After all, no matter how good the box door panel is, it is not as strong as solid wood. Especially in underground bunkers, in addition to cement, it is the solid wood that supports the safety of the tunnel.

But even if the surrounding wood was not cut down, these Japanese troops did not dare to go out, because the surroundings of Chiang Mai were already surrounded by large Chinese troops. As soon as they go out, it is like sheep in the mouth of a tiger.

Compared with the Japanese troops in the underground bunkers in the city, these Japanese soldiers who built defensive positions on the edge of Chiang Mai City suffered the most hardship. Under the heavy Chinese artillery fire, even hiding in the anti-artillery holes, a large number of Japanese soldiers were killed or buried alive.

The Japanese troops, who were still able to breathe and repair the defensive line, were already a great luck.

"Sakurai-kun, I ask you to delay the offensive speed of the Chinese army in Chiang Mai. Although Chiang Mai is our first line of defense, I need more time to build up my defenses. Judging by the latest reports, the Chinese siege of Chiang Mai is around 50,000 troops, a little less than your 14th Army. As long as you can give full play to your advantages and firmly defend Chiang Mai, it is absolutely delusional for China to capture Chiang Mai. After blocking China's sharp spirit, as long as we cooperate well, we can completely carry out a strategic counteroffensive. Over the phone, Yamashita Fumi, who rarely used the colloquial language of a request but also an order, said to the commander of the 14th Front Army in Chiang Mai, General Sakurai Province.

The meaning of abandoning the son is already obvious, otherwise Yamashita Fengwen would not use the words of please. Because two-thirds of the Chinese army bypassed Chiang Mai and went straight to the Malay Peninsula, Yamashita Fengwen was taken by surprise. Although China risked being cut off by Japan, the move also cut off Japan's ties with Chiang Mai. Even if Yamashita wanted to support Chiang Mai, he was powerless.

"I understand that for the sake of the Holy War of the Empire and the glory of the New Year in the future, I, Sakurai Province, will definitely stick to the last person." Although it was only a phone call, Sakurai was still a neat and neat Limasa and assured Yamashita Fengwen. There was no notice of the frustration and sadness that came after becoming an outcast.

Hanging up the phone, Sakurai was a little panicked in his heart. Although there were quite a few troops stationed in Chiang Mai, the main force of the entire 14th Front Army was still there, and the total number of troops was 60,000. Normally, it would not be difficult for such a large force to hold Chiang Mai. However, Sakurai knew very well that with these forces to resist the elite units of the Chinese Army, which were no less than him, it was only a matter of time before he failed without support, and in the end he could only use his death to complete the task assigned by Yamashita Fengfumi.

Although Sakurai also knew that his fate would be ugly, there was still a trace of expectation in his heart. This expectation is that he wants to defeat the elite troops of these Zhina people, and use the defeat and blood of these elite troops to forge his own more boiling career path. Although he himself knew that this expectation was actually his own delusion, he did not have the opportunity to cause a large number of casualties in the Chinese army.

Although the city of Chiang Mai is in ruins on the surface, the criss-crossing tunnels under the city of Chiang Mai have created a line of defense that is enough to make the attackers desperate. This is Sakurai Province's hole card, using these tunnels and the power to keep it, to block China's attack, and resist China's loss of offensive spirit.

"General, the defense line on the edge of the city-state has been destroyed by artillery fire in a large area and has lost its due defensive power." The hurried sound of the report interrupted Sakurai's wandering object.

"Shrink back to the city, we need more troops, distribute weapons to all the soldiers, and we want to give China a deep memory in Chiang Mai that will never be forgotten!" Sakurai didn't think twice before giving this stupid and wrong order.

In his opinion, under the powerful artillery fire of China, the significance of the city-state's defense has disappeared. It is better to shrink all the forces and fight a tug-of-war with the Chinese army in the city.

Of course, this order is not stupid and wrong at all in normal times, but in the next attack of China, such an order is a very stupid order. The Japanese army gathered in the establishment of the Chinese army wasted a lot of effort.

Twenty-four Djinn bombers have been approaching here at high speed, and the bomb load of twelve tons, the bomb load of twenty-four Djinn God is already close to the bomb load of two hundred and ninety tons. And this time the bomb they were carrying was not an ordinary bomb.

All of them were new bombs that had just been shipped from Arsenal No. 2, a special bomb created specifically to deal with Japan's growing network of tunnels. (To be continued......)
