There are a considerable number of Chinese on the Sino-Burmese border, Ba Mo is at the node of transportation, and it is usually a prosperous place for business travel, and now although there is a confrontation between China and Britain, these Chinese do not think that the Chinese [***] team will fight over, because since the former Qing Dynasty, the Chinese [***] team can only blindly retreat on the border issue, and do nothing at all, although these Chinese are eager for the Chinese [***] team to win, but they are more concerned about the huge demand caused by the transfer of the British [***] team.

The supply of tens of thousands of troops is not an easy task, and the British are likely to purchase supplies on a large scale through merchants as before, so these merchants have hoarded a lot of supplies and want to make a fortune, but things do not seem to have developed according to their expectations, first they got the news that the Chinese Air Force bombed Myitkyina, and then the British [***] team moved on a large scale.

Just when they still couldn't figure out the situation, a squadron of [***] suddenly appeared in front of them in a steel chariot, although these Chinese tank soldiers looked tired, the tanks were also full of muddy water, at first glance, they had experienced a long march, but they still couldn't hide the fierce spirit of this army, and there was a murderous aura between the soldiers' eyebrows, which made people feel unstoppable.

When did China have such a strong army, not only the Chinese businessmen of Ba Mo were surprised, but even the local Burmese were surprised, but Lu Han obviously did not have the time to deal with them, he had already received information, the British reinforcements were less than two days away from Ba Mo, although there was enough time, but they must also be prepared for defense, they only have one tank brigade, and it is indeed difficult to block the other side.

Luhan commanded his troops to build trenches and bunkers, while also choosing a suitable location to build a field airfield, so that the air force in the southwest could land nearby and provide air cover for the upcoming battle.

Ba Mo's Zhong [***] team is actively preparing for war, and at this time Zhu Qinglan has already commanded the army to surround Myitkyina, and the British army can only rely on the positional offensive to defend, of course, it is not very easy to eat these more than 30,000 troops, this is not more than 30,000 pigs, and the combat effectiveness is still not weak, especially those veterans who have experienced the test of World War I, they are extremely tenacious, and they have put on a stubborn posture, and it is very difficult to break through.

Zhu Qinglan concentrated more than 150 heavy artillery pieces and launched a fierce bombardment of the British position, the high muzzle of the cannon showed strength and majesty, and the roar of the god of war made anyone tremble, and the ground near Myitkyina seemed to be shaken and shaking.

A shell smashed on the position, a radius of more than twenty meters became a ruin, all kinds of fortifications were broken into parts one by one, even the people on the position were no exception, at this time the defending British army should probably feel depressed, it is the war they caused that allowed the Chinese to have a military industry, can produce their own guns and cannons, relying on the advantage of weapons to wantonly bully other countries was originally the patent of the British, now the whole has changed, the British can only silently endure the shelling of China.

Although the British also had a lot of artillery, most of these guns were old models before the First World War, with short range, low power, and very clumsy, and a few new cannons were also insignificant because they did not have enough shells, and it was absolutely self-defeating to engage in artillery battles with China.

Finally the artillery stopped roaring, and the Chinese offensive began, the first thing that appeared in the eyes of the British army was dozens of huge tanks, whizzing towards them, and behind the tanks were large groups of Chinese infantry, bent over, with submachine guns in their hands, quickly approaching the British position.

With the tank as an attack weapon, the infantry's job is much simpler, as long as you follow the tank, you can get enough security, the original stubborn strongholds can greatly kill and injure the infantry, and sometimes even rely on the accumulation of lives to break through, but now these facing the tank, as long as one or two shells can be completely solved.

The Chinese offensive appeared to be extremely easy, and soon cleared the outlying positions of the British army, and a large number of British and Indian troops were wiped out in the trenches, and soon the second line of defense was attacked, and the Chinese troops finally ran into real trouble.

Here Hamilton set up three anti-tank trenches, greatly hindering the advance of the tank, speed is the life of the tank, now stopped, it is much easier to deal with, the British mortar field guns also began to bombard the tank, in an instant several tanks were damaged, lacking the cover of the tank, the Chinese soldiers were also killed and wounded.

However, a few anti-tank trenches were still difficult to reach the [***] team, and several specially modified tanks carried specially made steel components, driven by sappers, these special tanks rushed to the front of the anti-tank trenches, put down the steel components, and in an instant a safe passage appeared in front of them, and the tanks were able to pass quickly.

The commander of the British army, Hamilton, also rushed to the front line at this time, and when he saw that the Chinese easily broke through the anti-tank trench that he had carefully prepared, he was immediately frightened, if according to the speed of the Chinese attack, he was afraid that he would be able to hit Myitkyina in just one day, and then he would fight with the Chinese in the streets? Hamilton did not have the courage to do so, so he sent in his most elite Indian soldiers, who were known for their tenacity.

Under the command of the British officers, these Indian troops launched a counterattack against the Chinese tanks like mad dogs, the battle became more and more intense, and there was even a white-knuckle battle between the two sides, Zhu Qinglan had long noticed the situation on the battlefield, the purpose of fighting Myitkyina was to put pressure on the British, so that they would continue to move their forces to northern Burma, if Myitkyina was captured now, the British army would instead shrink to Mandalay and hold on, which was not a good thing for China at that time, so Zhu Qinglan took the initiative to temporarily retreat from the [***] team.

After Hamilton barely survived the day, he hurriedly asked the Indian governor for help, in the telegram Hamilton was almost begging the British [***] high-level, either send reinforcements as soon as possible, or allow them to retreat, the offensive of the Chinese [***] team was far more than imagined, and due to the weather, the Chinese planes did not enter the battle, once the Chinese planes participated in the battle, thinking of the bombing that had just passed, Hamilton felt a chill coming out of his heart, he was sure to resist.

The British and Indian high-level also felt the tension of the situation at this time, Myitkyina must not be lost, and could only strengthen the aid, while ordering Hamilton to wait for reinforcements, while urging reinforcements to move to northern Burma as soon as possible, in order to ensure the speed of the march, the British also collected a large number of livestock, and also prepared a lot of bicycles to speed up the march.

But even after this, it can't be compared with the Chinese tank forces, they soon found out that the Chinese have occupied Ba Mo first, the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements Jacob is also shocked, Ba Mo's position is too important, once occupied by the Chinese, Mychi will really become a dead city, and there will be turmoil in the whole of northern Myanmar, northern Myanmar is not guaranteed, it will affect the situation in eastern India, the Chinese are really ruthless, and Jacob also blames the British high-level, It seems that the British did not have a plan for a Chinese attack at all, and it seemed to the stupid bureaucrats that China would never be able to attack the British colonies.

Now that the situation has changed, the British should know how fragile their colonies are, there is only one road connecting Myitkyina and Mandalay, and now this road has been cut off by the Chinese, and now the British must take back Ba Mo, Jacob hurriedly ordered the Indian 4th Division, which opened the way, to rush forward and retake Ba Mo.

The Indian Fourth Division is known as the elite of the Indian army, on the battlefield of the Western Front, these Indian soldiers under the command of the British [***] officer and the Germans to the death, the killing is also dark, it is difficult to distinguish the victory and defeat, and even some difficult nails The British will be the first to think of these obedient Indian soldiers.

Being able to fight with the Germans made these Indian soldiers look above the top, and did not look at the Chinese at all, the British were the first in the world, except for the British, I am afraid that it will be regarded as India, and there is a greater nation.

After receiving the order, the Fourth Division threw off the slow-moving logistics team, and the speed of the march was much faster, at this time, outside the town of Bamo, Luhan's fortifications had also been completed, and the field airfield also had eyebrows, although it was not yet possible to take off and land bombers, but there was absolutely no problem with small reconnaissance planes.

Intelligence shows that the British reinforcements are not very far away from Bamo, Lu Han is advocating attack, he commands tank troops, the strongest mobile troops, and will definitely not wait to be beaten, so Lu Han immediately led two tank companies, a total of 20 Biao tanks, ready for battle.

Soon the tank troops left Ba Mo and rushed towards the Indian Fourth Division, and now the distance between the two armies is only thirty miles, which is not a big deal for the tanks, and they can be reached with a charge.

The Biao tank was at full power, and in less than an hour, Luján could see a group of Indian soldiers rushing towards this side on the road, and at this time the Indian scouts also discovered the Chinese tank, but it was too late, the distance between the two sides was too close, the throttle increased, and the Chinese tank appeared in front of the Indian soldiers in an instant, and suddenly these Indian soldiers were shocked, they knew very well that their side occupied an absolute advantage in numbers, in this case, the wisest thing for the Chinese should be to hold on, where to think of the [*** The team will launch a counterattack, perhaps they have not read the Chinese military books, and do not know the reason for taking them by surprise and attacking them unprepared.

The Indian 4th Division was also equipped with dozens of tanks, which were assigned to the infantry for cover and were not grouped together, so it was more difficult to mobilize, and at this time the Chinese tanks were already in front of them, tank guns and machine guns rang out together, and the encounter simply turned into a one-sided slaughter.

Luján's car was the first to rush into the ranks of the Indian march, the Indian soldiers were completely lambs to the slaughter, the twenty tanks were divided into two teams to form an arrowhead, these monsters spitting ammunition formed a barrage of death, countless Ah San were killed, crushed, and the roads were stained red with blood.

The road is full of dead bodies, discarded weapons everywhere, these Indian soldiers screamed wildly, scattered and fled, and those British [***] officers ran faster, their lives were much more expensive than the Indian gold, Lu Han commanded the tank crew to charge, more than three hundred Indian soldiers died on the road, the number of soldiers who escaped was far more than this number, a large number of equipment was also discarded on the road, this so-called ace division became a joke!
