Chapter 817: Strategic Armageddon (10)
At this time, the Chinese navy appeared off the southeast coast of Yangon, Burma, completely carrying out a north-south flank combat plan, along with a large number of transport ships or transport ships, which were full of heavily armed soldiers.
In the past few days, the five major armies attacking from the north, with the cooperation of aircraft and heavy artillery, have been advancing all the way, and have already annihilated nearly 200,000 enemies, and the defeat of the Japanese army in Burma has already appeared.
In order to speed up the annihilation of the Japanese army in Burma, Zhang Yunfei ordered to send the 12th Army to land near Yangon, Burma with the cooperation of the Chinese Navy, with the aim of capturing Rangoon and carrying out a north-south flanking attack on the Japanese army.
The main force of the Pacific Fleet of the Chinese Navy, the "Datong" aircraft carrier, the "Taiyuan" aircraft carrier, as well as three battleships, several cruisers, and more than a dozen destroyers, among these destroyers, there are several "Zhao Yun-class" destroyers, and more than 20 large and small warships will cooperate with the soldiers of the 12th Group Army to land southeast of Yangon.
At present, the Chinese Navy is already preparing to build the Indian Ocean Fleet, and the three aircraft carriers that will receive the Japanese Navy will all be equipped with the Indian Ocean Fleet after the renovation and upgrading are completed, and in addition, the newly established Indian Ocean Fleet will also be equipped with two heavy cruisers, three light cruisers, and in addition, a large number of missile destroyers.
At present, the Chinese Navy has quite a few missile destroyers, and not only have there been a few newly launched "Zhao Yun-class" missile destroyers, but also more than 20 destroyers received by the Chinese side after the Japanese Navy surrendered.
These destroyers, which were formerly of the Japanese Navy, were equipped with advanced radars after the renovation was completed. Missiles, even with helicopters, turn into missile destroyers with good performance.
At present, the Indian Ocean Fleet of the Chinese Navy is being built in an orderly manner, and the construction of the first seaport is also being selected.
However, it will take at least several months for the Indian Ocean Fleet of the Chinese Navy to become combat-ready. Presently. All eyes are on the situation in Burma, and according to Zhang Yunfei's orders, the Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet, as well as the 12th Army, are approaching Yangon.
Although the Pacific Fleet of the Chinese Navy. In addition, the 12th Army rode on 70 or 80 large and small transport ships. The goal is huge. However, since the Japanese army in Southeast Asia basically did not have a navy, the air force was also very weak. Their whereabouts were relatively hidden until they approached the coast of Yangon and were discovered by the Burmese Japanese army.
The Japanese army in Burma did not have a navy, only a coastal patrol force, a patrol consisting of a few gunboats, and a few large fishing boats converted into small warships, which could not be called small warships, because the tonnage of these fishing boats did not exceed 1,000 tons.
The Burmese Japanese army mainly took a fancy to these fishing boats, which were not made of wood, but iron-hulled fishing boats, and also had engines, and the Burmese Japanese army put a few small cannons on these fishing boats and set up a few machine guns, and they became small warships that were patched together.
When the Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet approached the waters southeast of Yangon, this small Japanese patrol from Burma was patrolling the waters in that area.
Of course, the radar of the Pacific Fleet of the Chinese Navy had already discovered these Japanese patrols, but the scale was too small and basically ignored by the Chinese Navy.
At this time, it doesn't matter if even the whereabouts are exposed, it is not far from the landing site, only a few dozen nautical miles, even if the Japanese army knows, it will not have any effect.
The Japanese soldiers who were patrolling were startled when they saw a huge fleet appear on the sea in the distance, and many Japanese officers even picked up their binoculars and looked at the fleet in the distance.
Seeing that it was the Chinese fleet, these Japanese officers were shocked, and while immediately reporting to the city of Rangoon, they ordered to flee at full speed.
In the command room of the "Datong" aircraft carrier, Comrade Liu Dazhu, commander-in-chief of the Chinese Navy, already knew that there was a Japanese coastal patrol in the distance, and Liu Dazhu gave the order to sink it.
On a light cruiser of 5 to 6,000 tons, a two-mounted 203-mm cannon was aimed at the Japanese gunboats and small warships that were preparing to flee a few nautical miles away.
After Liu Dazhu gave the order to sink, several light cruisers took action, while heavy cruisers and battleships did not participate in the action.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Several light cruisers opened fire one after another, and shells whistled and flew towards the gunboats and small warships of the little devils.
Distance.
The little devils who were fleeing, seeing the Chinese fleet firing their guns, their faces turned pale with fright, in front of the giant ships one after another, the little devils were already under great pressure, and now, these giant ships actually opened fire, and the little devils were not scared to death.
On a gunboat with a displacement of several hundred tons, a little devil Shao Zuo saw the cannonballs whistling, and he was scared to tremble, not much better than ordinary little devils.
Especially when the little devil Shaozo saw that not far away, a small warship converted from a fishing boat was blown apart after being shot, and the little devil Shaozuo's face became even paler.
"Quick, quick, more horsepower!"
The little devil Shao Zuo ordered to increase the horsepower to the maximum, and the speed was maximized, and there was a loud "boom", only a few dozen meters away from the gunboat, and a missed shell hit the water, blowing up a water column dozens of meters high, seeing such a high water column, the little devil Dazuo's heart trembled, and he almost peed his pants.
However, soon the little devil Shaozo secretly rejoiced that this shell missed, and if it hit his gunboat, it would definitely be sunk by a cannon.
The gunboats and small warships of the little devils were fleeing, which was equivalent to hitting moving targets, and most of the shells of these cruisers missed, but the fighters obviously didn't care about these shells, and kept aiming and firing.
These gunboats and small warships were sunk one after another, and the gunboat that the little devil Shaozuo was riding on was finally hit by a cannonball, was blown in two, and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
Several gunboats of the Japanese Coast Patrol in Burma, as well as several fishing boats converted into small warships, were all sunk and sunk into the sea.
When the Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet appeared southeast of Rangoon, it was noon, and it was less than an hour after sinking the Burmese Japanese.
In front is a large beach, which is also the landing place of Chinese troops.
The 12th Army will land in this area, and the main force of the Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet is in the coastal waters, just a few kilometers away from this beach, and the huge guns on the warships are aimed at this beach.
Soon after the Burmese Japanese High Command learned that the Chinese Navy would land on this beach, although there were many Japanese troops defending the entire beach, these Japanese troops obviously arrived here in a hurry and did not build any fortifications.
Even on the beach, bare, all fine sand, there is not even a little obstacle, barbed wire and the like, and if the fighters rush to land, it will be very difficult.
Thousands of Japanese troops on this beach, seeing the huge Chinese naval fleet not far away, these Japanese soldiers were hurriedly and anxiously building simple fortifications, obviously these little devils received a death order, here resolutely to prevent the Chinese army from landing.
It is only a few dozen kilometers away from the city of Yangon, and Yangon is the location of the Supreme Headquarters of the Japanese Army in Burma.
On the "Datong" aircraft carrier, Liu Dazhu took a telescope and looked at the large sandy beach a few kilometers away, and saw that many little devils were anxiously building fortifications, Liu Dazhu sneered in his heart, and immediately gave the order for shelling.
All the battleships, heavy cruisers, light cruisers, and even quite a few destroyers, the main and secondary guns on the warships were aimed at the little devils who were several kilometers away, and these warships were ready to shell the little devils.
Thousands of little devils who were building fortifications looked at the heavy artillery in the distance aimed at them, and many of the little devils turned pale and looked frightened.
The person responsible for blocking the landing of the Chinese army in this area was a Japanese rear admiral, and the little devil rear admiral was also holding a telescope looking at the huge Chinese fleet in the distance, seeing so many warships, especially tens of thousands of tons of battleships, the little devil rear admiral was naturally clear about the power of the battleships.
Helplessly looked at the huge battleships in the distance, the little devil's face was also a little pale, and he thought in his heart, his thousands of people, all light equipment, the only heavy weapons are a few small mountain guns, how can this stop such a huge Chinese army from landing.
I'm unlucky enough, Major General Little Devil thought to himself, maybe I'll explain here today.
It didn't take long.
There was a large sharp whistling sound in the sky, a large number of warships had already opened fire, and a large number of shells were whistling.
One after another, the shells exploded violently on the beach, blowing up the sand all over the beach, and many little devils who were building were blown to pieces.
The main guns on battleships and cruisers, with huge calibers and equally great power, explode in the middle of unprotected little devils, often with one shot, and a large number of little devils die.
I saw that on the beach, there was a loud "boom", and a large crater with a diameter of 20 or 30 meters appeared, and near the explosion point, within a radius of several tens of meters, at least dozens of little devils were gone, and a large number of little devils were blown away, and more little devils were torn to pieces by the violent air waves.
