In the northern part of the Bengal Plain, south of the Brahmaputra River, at the junction of the Pacific and Indian Ocean plates, the crust was uplifted upward under the influence of the extrusion of the hand plates, forming the Kasi Mountains. The terrain here is extremely scarce, and the transportation facilities are backward, so it cannot be directly crossed, and can only be bypassed from the plain along the Brahmaputra River on the west side of the mountain. The rolling hills also constrained the Chinese army's advance, and it was very difficult for heavy equipment to travel on these improvised roads. The commander of the Anglo-Indian Army, Admiral Kitchener, officially planned to take advantage of the geographical conditions here to fight a general battle with the squadron. If it wins, it may be able to completely curb the offensive of the ** team in northeast India.

The 26th Anglo-Indian Army retreating from the Bengal Plains and the 25th Anglo-Indian Army retreating on its own initiative, as well as the Anglo-Indian 27th Army and the Anglo-Indian 28th Army retreating from northeast India, with a total of more than 1.5 million troops, all gathered in the Jaintia Hills and prepared to meet the squadron here. And the squadron also marched along the Brahmaputra River, from east and west, to the Jeintia hills. It's just that the squadron plus the North Korean mercenaries are only more than 700,000 people, which is only half of the Anglo-Indian army.

A week later, the Second Route Army of the Chinese Army arrived on the outskirts of the Jeintia Hills and officially began to attack the British and Indian troops entrenched here. This large-scale battle attracted the attention of the Chinese side and the British side. If the Chinese side wins this battle, then the entire Bengal plain and northeastern India will fall into the hands of the squadron. You know, the Bengal plain is one of the three major grain-producing regions in India. If occupied by China. India doesn't want to feed 300 million people!

The commander of the Anglo-Indian Army, General Kitchener. When the chief of staff, Lieutenant General de Frere, broke out in this battle, he stayed in the war room almost all day, watching the outcome of the battle. As for the northwest direction, the first group of the Chinese Army has also begun to attack India. It's just that the border between Afghanistan and India is high mountains, and several dangerous mountain passes have also been heavily guarded by the British and Indian troops.

The Viceroy of India, Baron Harding, demanded that Admiral Kitchener deliver the latest war reports to the Governor's Palace every two hours. He needs to be up-to-date on what's happening on the front lines in real time. Originally, Baron Harding was also full of confidence in the battle of the British and Indian troops against the squadron. However, it didn't take long for the Anglo-Indian army to lose millions of troops, which made him a little panicked. Although the Anglo-Indian army had 14 million troops, and thanks to the efforts of the Congress Party and the Muslim League, a large number of Indian Asans were joining the Anglo-Indian army. But if such losses continue, even a large number of troops will not be enough. In view of the gap between the British and Indian armies and the squadron, this battle has great reference significance for the next battles between the British and Indian armies and the squadron.

On 9 November, the vanguard of the Southern Route Army of the Second Cluster of the Chinese Army captured Dura. Access to the Jeintia Hills was opened. At the same time, the Northern Route Army also captured Havron, and from the east attacked the Jeintia Hills.

Lieutenant General Christopher, commander of the 25th Anglo-Indian Army, was appointed commander of the Anglo-Indian side of the battle. He gathered the main forces of the Anglo-Indian army in Shillong. Including the 25th Army and the 28th Army of the Anglo-Indian Army, which had basically no losses in the early operations. The 26th Army and the 27th Army, which suffered heavy losses, were required to block the ** team on the hills on the east and west sides. This order was opposed by the commander of the 26th Army, Lieutenant General David, and the commander of the 27th Army, Lieutenant General Renat. However, their opposition directly dismissed Lieutenant General Christopher. Lieutenant General Christopher tried to let the 26th Army and the 27th Army delay the squadron, and at the same time consume the strength of the squadron, and by the time the squadron arrived in Shillong, it was estimated that it would be exhausted. At that time, he will be able to use millions of troops to fight a decisive battle with the squadron. At least in Lieutenant General Christopher's opinion, there is still a great chance of winning in this case. This plan of his was also supported by Admiral Kitchener, so other opposition voices were forcibly suppressed by him!

The second group of the Chinese Army advanced along the Kasi Mountains, from the east and west flanks, towards Shillong. Along the way, the Anglo-Indian army launched a series of resistance. None of their resistance, though, was too fierce. In the face of the attack of the squadron, they are often collapsing at the touch of a button, which makes the squadron's advance very fast, and they can advance twenty or thirty kilometers almost every day. The two route armies attacked on two fronts and quickly advanced to Xilong.

In the battle to Shillong, the Korean mercenaries still charged at the front, opening the way for the follow-up troops. The soldiers of these North Korean mercenaries fought quite fiercely. If they encounter a world-class army, they may not be opponents, but when they encounter the garbage army composed of Indian Asan, they are like the god of war possessed, and the Anglo-Indian army wolf bèi escapes, which greatly satisfies the arrogant psychology of the North Koreans.

Of course, North Korean mercenaries have paid a lot of price for this, but they still enjoy it. And the squadron allowed the North Korean mercenaries to wantonly rob and slaughter those Indian Asan, which further fueled the arrogance of the North Korean mercenaries. One Indian village after another was ransacked by North Korean mercenaries, houses were burned and all belongings looted. Although the Indian Asan was poor, they all had the habit of collecting gold and silver, especially those who went down to the landlords and temples, and there were a lot of gold and silver and other possessions. This time, it can be cheaper for those North Korean mercenaries. Although this provoked a strong resistance from the local Indians, those who dared to resist were bloodily slaughtered by North Korean mercenaries. The whole region of the Jeintia Hills is full of tragic plight of Indians. However, no one can save them.

Of course, although these sins were committed by North Korean mercenaries, the squadron was also an accomplice. And half of the property looted by the North Korean mercenaries went to the squadron. The North Koreans carried the black pot, but the benefit was won by China. This is the biggest reason why China is forming mercenaries.

Of course, the crimes committed by the Korean mercenaries and later the Japanese mercenaries in India also made the surviving Indians very hateful. It's just that at that time, it was difficult for India to even survive, let alone take revenge on North Korea and Japan. As the two dogs raised by China, North Korea and Japan are also developing better and better, and it is simply not something that India can retaliate against. The British government has been vigorously promoting in the West that China is massacring Indians in India. It's just that now that the war is at a critical moment, countless people in Europe have died in the war, who cares about the lives of those Indians!

On November 16, the Chinese Army's 2nd Cluster Southern Route Army captured Nonstoin, only 40 kilometers from Shillong. The Northern Route Army advanced faster, having already captured Djowai, and was only 20 kilometers away from Shillong. The 26th Army and the 27th Army, which were sent by the British and Indian forces to intercept the squadron, had been lost in the battle. Of course, there were not many Anglo-Indian troops wiped out by the squadron, and most of the Anglo-Indian troops were dispersed. The defeated British and Indian soldiers took off their uniforms, threw away their weapons and fled, unwilling to send them to death again. Even if the British officers were to execute the deserters as soon as they found them, they could not prevent the Indian Asans from escaping.

Originally, many Indian Asans listened to the call of the Congress Party and the Muslim League, and in order to defend India, they joined the army to prepare to fight against the squadron. Moreover, the British officers declared to them that the squadron was simply vulnerable, and these Indian Asans also stupidly believed it. But on the battlefield, the squadron's strong firepower and combat effectiveness were shocked, and they realized that they had been deceived. At this time, everything that protects the family and the country is false, and saving one's life is the most important thing.

While the Chinese Army was advancing, the Chinese Navy also sent fleets up the Brahmaputra River. However, large battleships could only sail to Dhaka, and further up only light cruisers and destroyers could pass. Although the Geintia hills were far from the river, the fleet could not provide fire cover for the army's offensive. But they had a more important responsibility, which was to cut off the retreat of the Anglo-Indian army and prevent the Anglo-Indian army from escaping across the Brahmaputra River in the face of unfavorable warfare. The second group of the Chinese Army is determined to eat the 4 group armies of the British and Indian armies in one bite this time!

After the ** team approached Shillong from the east and west, the British and Indian troops also felt the danger. Lieutenant General Christopher, commander of the 25th Anglo-Indian Army, gave the order to attack. The 25th Army and the 28th Army, which were assembled in Shillong, all attacked eastward and attacked the Northern Route Army of the Chinese Army, the second group, which had just captured Djowai.

Lieutenant General Christopher believes that after the layers of resistance by the British and Indian troops, the squadron has consumed a lot of combat power, although it has not yet reached the end of the strong crossbow, but it should not be much worse. As long as the Chinese Army can defeat the squadron in one direction before the Chinese Army attacks Shillong from the east and west, then the British and Indian forces will have a great chance of winning this battle. And the target they chose to attack was the Northern Route Army of the Second Cluster of the Chinese Army, which was closer to Xilong. After defeating the squadron ** on this road, return to Shillong to attack the other army, so as to win this battle! (To be continued......)
