After the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire defeated the joint expeditionary fleet of the Entente and the Central Powers, the huge waves caused by it swept the whole world, and how the powerful Combined Expeditionary Fleet was defeated, it is really unbelievable, everyone is still discussing this naval war that shocked the world, the smoke of the war between the Chinese Empire and the Entente and the Allied Powers did not dissipate because of the end of the naval war.

The naval battle was temporarily over, and the remnants of the combined Allied and Allied expeditionary fleets had been defeated and retreated to Europe, but the smoke of land warfare still hung over the British colonies in Asia.

In the Russian battlefield, the troops of the Chinese Empire are gathering in the city of Ufa west of the Ural Mountains, but due to transportation problems, it is not so easy for the troops and war materials of the Chinese Empire to be transported to the vicinity of Ufa City.

It is impossible for the Chinese Empire to gather enough forces to attack Ufa City in a short period of time, after all, the Entente and the Central Powers are desperately trying to mobilize troops to Ufa City this time, and when the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire and the Joint Expeditionary Fleet fought a decisive battle at sea, the Allied and Allied forces have already concentrated more than 5 million troops in Ufa City, and after the end of the naval battle, the Allied forces are still continuously transporting troops to Ufa City, and even the coalition forces may not know how many coalition troops can be gathered in Ufa City in the end.

Russia is now expanding its army at all costs, and then constantly sending new troops to Ufa City, Russian Tsar Nicholas II is determined to block the Chinese Imperial Army's continued advance into the hinterland of Russia in Ufa City, and the Russians do not know how many troops they can gather in Ufa City. This is also the reason why the coalition forces do not know how many combat troops they can have in the city of Ufa.

For the time being, both sides of the Russian battlefield were gathering strength in the city of Ufa, but the British Asian colonies were still very lively.

Before this naval battle that shocked the world. The Tibetan garrison of the Chinese Empire, as well as the garrisons of 2 provinces rushed to Tibet from Sichuan and Qinghai. With a total of more than 100,000 troops, the occupation of the British colonies of Nepal and Bhutan has been completed at a very small cost.

The Fifth Field Army and the Sixth Field Army of the Imperial Chinese Army also broke through the British army's defenses on the Sino-Indian border and advanced to Islamabad and Dhaka respectively, only to be stopped by the heavy forces gathered by the British.

The road conditions in India were already very bad, and the British army deliberately destroyed the roads, so that the heavy equipment of the two field armies could not be transported to Islamabad and Dhaka with the large force, and could only approach Islamabad and Dhaka at a turtle speed.

Before the heavy equipment of the two field armies did not arrive in Islamabad and Dhaka, respectively. The flames of war in India have also died down for the time being, but as the heavy equipment of the two field armies is transported in the air by airships, and part of it arrives at the front line of the two cities, the smoke of gunfire in India is about to reappear.

The British Asian colonies had always been bustling with Burma, where 200,000 garrisons drawn from Yunnan, Guizhou, Funan, Vietnam, and Guangxi provinces had occupied at least a third of Burma before the naval battle.

The remaining two-thirds of Burma still has 150,000 British colonial troops, but the British colonial army, composed of Burmese, is waiting for the Chinese Imperial Army of the Celestial Empire. The main reason why the garrison of the Imperial Chinese Army did not advance quickly in Burma was that the roads in Burma were also very bad, and the rain made the roads muddy. Even more difficult to go, the garrison that entered Burma faced the biggest problem not to fight the British colonial army in Burma. It's the speed of the march.

After the end of the great battle at sea, the garrison of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire entered Burma. Some of the advance troops were pulled out, and all heavy equipment was abandoned. Armed with only a small amount of ammunition and food, it quickly advanced towards the other two-thirds of Burma.

This decision was very wise, although the advance troops advanced lightly, but they did not experience any fighting at all, and when they encountered the British colonial army composed of Burmese, they all cheerfully welcomed the troops of the Celestial Empire back to Burma, and as for the British officers in the colonial army, they either fled long ago or were dealt with by the Burmese soldiers.

Finally, at the beginning of December 1908, the whole of Burma fell into the hands of the Chinese Empire, and the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire suffered less than 1,000 casualties in the process of occupying the whole of Burma, not counting some officers and soldiers who were sick because of the water and soil, so that the British colonies in Asia were left with India, which was the most important to the British.

On the afternoon of December 3, 1908, in the military headquarters of the Fifth Field Army of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, more than ten kilometers outside Islamabad, India, Wang Peng, commander of the Fifth Field Army, said to the commanders of the three infantry divisions and the brigade commanders of the tank brigade under his command: "Most of the heavy equipment of our Fifth Field Army has finally arrived here in Islamabad. Fortunately, we only have one army here, if we have more troops, if we want to prepare sufficient combat materials for the attack on Islamabad, I don't know if we will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey, now the strength of the British army in Islamabad is constantly strengthening, we can not wait any longer, and our Fifth Field Army will launch an attack on Islamabad early tomorrow morning. ”

The brigade commander of the army's tank brigade said with a wry smile: "Commander, only 30 heavy Panther tanks and 60 light Black Wolf tanks have been transported to the front line in Islamabad by our tank brigade, and half of the tanks have not been delivered. ”

The commander of the 51st Infantry Division also said: "Commander, less than two-thirds of the heavy artillery of our three divisions has just been transported, so why don't you wait a little longer?" ”

The commander of the 52nd Infantry Division followed and said: "Commander, the ammunition reserves of the various units are not too much, should we let the Air Force transport more ammunition to us and then launch an attack on Islamabad." ”

The Fifth Field Army has the 51st Infantry Division, the 52nd Infantry Division and the 53rd Infantry Division, as well as a military tank brigade with 60 heavy Panther tanks and 120 light Black Wolf tanks, as well as the military headquarters of the Fifth Field Army.

Wang Peng waved his hand and said: "We can't wait any longer, the British are different in India from Burma." The rule was very long, and the Indians still identified with the British. Willing to help the British fight against our Chinese Empire. , which was supposed to be the time when the vanguard of our Fifth Field Army arrived in Islamabad. The British troops in Islamabad are less than 600,000, and now it has only been half a month, according to the intelligence of the Military Intelligence Agency, the British troops in Islamabad have exceeded 850,000, and the British may be able to gather more than one million troops in Islamabad. ”

Of the 850,000 British troops in Islamabad, 60,000 were British regulars, and Britain sent a total of 150,000 British Army regulars throughout the Asian colonies, most of them concentrated in India, and now these British Army regulars have basically been transferred to Islamabad and Dhaka.

The commander of the 53 Infantry Division frowned and said, "Commander." Since Islamabad has gathered more than 850,000 British troops, and the heavy equipment of our Fifth Field Army has not fully reached the front line, and the ammunition is not very sufficient, if we attack Islamabad at this time, the losses of our Fifth Field Army will be very large, and I am worried that Islamabad is not very easy to fight, and if our Fifth Field Army plants a heel in Islamabad, it will be a big loss. ”

Wang Peng looked at the four subordinates and sighed and said, "I know it too."

All kinds of difficulties faced by our Fifth Field Army, but the Ministry of Defense called. In order to ensure that the Battle of Ufa City, which is about to break out on the Russian battlefield, the strength and combat materials of our Chinese Imperial attack force, the air force units that were originally used to transport the heavy equipment and war materials of our Fifth Field Army, will be drawn from most of the airships and transport planes to the Russian battlefield. ”

After a pause, Wang Peng continued: "It's the same with the Sixth Field Army. In order to transport troops and war materials to the vicinity of the city of Ufa on the Russian battlefield as soon as possible, most of the airships and transport planes that transported supplies for the Sixth Field Army were also withdrawn to Russia. So in a short time, the heavy equipment of our 5th Field Army will no longer be delivered to the Islamabad front. The only remaining airships and transport planes will only deliver various supplies to the front line in Islamabad. ”

When the commanders of the three infantry divisions and the brigade commanders of the tank brigade heard this, they couldn't help frowning. Wouldn't the transfer of most of the airships and transport planes to the Russian battlefield allow the Fifth and Sixth Field Armies to tie their hands and feet!

Wang Peng continued: "At the same time, the Ministry of Defense asked our Fifth Field Army and Sixth Field Army to suspend the attack on Islamabad and Dhaka, and wait for the Ministry of Defense to withdraw other troops to support our two armies, but I discussed with Duan Qirui, the commander of the Sixth Field Army, that most of the British colonial armies we are facing are mainly Indians, and the combat effectiveness of these British colonial armies can be said to be very weak. Therefore, I and Commander Duan Qirui jointly sent a telegram to the Ministry of Defense requesting war, and now the Ministry of Defense has approved our two armies to tentatively launch attacks on Islamabad and Dhaka respectively. ”

The commander of the 51st Infantry Division said at this time: "In that case, commander, there is nothing to say, you can give the order!" Let's let the British and those Indian Ah San understand the power of the Fifth Field Army of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire. ”

The commander of the 52nd Infantry Division also said: "Although the heavy equipment of our Fifth Field Army is not completely in place, it should be stronger than the heavy equipment of more than 850,000 British troops in the entire Islamabad, after all, most of the troops in Islamabad are British colonial troops composed of Indians, and these colonial armies have very few artillery, not to mention tanks and armored vehicles, commander, you give the order!" ”

The commander of the 53rd Infantry Division and the brigade commander of the tank brigade also spoke out at this time in favor of launching an attack on Islamabad, after all, in the face of a British colonial army composed mostly of Indians, if the Fifth Field Army still waited for reinforcements, then other fraternal troops would not be allowed to laugh off their big teeth in the future.

Wang Peng and Duan Qirui also had similar ideas, not long ago, in the city of Chelyabinsk on the Russian battlefield, in the face of the elite army units of the Entente and the Allied countries, other brother troops won more with less, and wiped out more than 2 million allied forces of the Entente and the Allied countries, and many of the brother troops were newly formed.

Their Fifth Field Army and Sixth Field Army, as the elite of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire, were really embarrassed to wait for backup in the face of these British colonial armies in India.

Wang Peng nodded to the four subordinates and said: "Then it is decided, tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, our Fifth Field Army will begin to attack Islamabad, first by the artillery of each infantry division, for 20 minutes...... It is better to carry out 15 minutes of artillery bombardment first, and then the 51st and 52nd Divisions will first attack the perimeter of Islamabad, with the 53rd Division and the tank brigade as reserves, and at the same time contact the air force to provide air support, and the Sixth Field Army will also launch an attack on Dhaka early tomorrow morning, and I don't want our Fifth Field Army to lose to Duan Qirui's Sixth Field Army. ”

At the same time, at the military headquarters of the Sixth Field Army of the Imperial Chinese Army, more than ten kilometers outside Dhaka, Duan Qirui, commander of the Sixth Field Army, also ordered the 61st Infantry Division, 62nd Infantry Division, 63rd Infantry Division, and the army's tank brigade under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Field Army to launch an attack on the heavily defended city of Dhaka by the British army early tomorrow morning.

Before the naval battle of the joint expeditionary fleet of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire and the Entente and the Allied Powers, the British army had gathered about 650,000 troops in Dhaka, including 70,000 regular troops of the British Army.

Not only did the Sixth Field Army face more enemies, but the Sixth Field Army did not transport as much heavy equipment to the front line as the Fifth Field Army.

For example, the tank brigade of the Sixth Field Army only 20 heavy Panther tanks and 40 light Black Wolf tanks arrived at the Dhaka front, and only more than half of the artillery of the three infantry divisions arrived at the front line, so the difficulties faced by the Sixth Field Army were even greater than those of the Fifth Field Army.

Duan Qirui said to the four subordinates: "Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, our Sixth Field Army will launch an attack on Islamabad and Dhaka together with the Fifth Field Army, the number of enemies faced by our Sixth Field Army is as high as 950,000, and our Sixth Field Army is still on the attacking side, and a considerable part of the heavy weapons have not yet arrived at the front line, but I still believe that we can achieve victory and capture the city of Dhaka, because we are ......."

"The Sixth Field Army of the Imperial Chinese Army!"

"What is the slogan of our 6th Field Army?"

"Use me in the first battle! Use me to win! (To be continued.) )
