"Be careful, it's a ninety-seven land battle."

"Falcon, follow me to intercept it."

Over Sirjar, four Thunderbolts made a quick turn and rushed towards the six Japanese Type 97 Army fighters that came from Dhaka to support. With the screeching of engines, ten warplanes circled and swooped over the infantry's heads, pulling out a complex spiral trajectory. After the escort fighters attacked, the 12 Snake B fighter attack planes that followed behind were divided into six groups and swept over the Japanese troops from low altitudes. 90-millimeter rockets and aerial bombs smashed like a heavy hammer into the position of the Takata Wing of the 31st Division of the Japanese Army. "Boom!" "Boom!" The explosion sent up a large cloud of smoke, and the severed arms and limbs of the Japanese soldiers flew in the branches and leaves of the rainforest, and the Japanese soldiers, who had no air supremacy, could only hide behind the woods and rocks and endure hardship.

After dropping the bombs, the attack aircraft did not leave, and once again ravaged the Japanese with four 25-mm machine guns on the wings. Cannons thundered, shells rained down on the ground, and a whirlwind swept through the dense rainforest, breaking tree trunks and flying branches and leaves everywhere they passed.

"The plane is gone! The emperor is onboard! Offensive! "No matter how strong the air attack is, there will be a time when the ammunition will run out, and as soon as the attack aircraft group has left with the record of shooting down six enemy planes, countless Japanese soldiers armed with 38 large covers will emerge from the swept rainforest and rush towards the position of the Indian Army Group south of Mount Sirjar.

"Divisional commander! The Japanese charged again. Made! Why can't these bastards be killed? Huang Peien, commander of the 166th Regiment of the 2nd Division, had gauze wrapped around his head and rushed into the command post with hatred. He is also a veteran officer who trained in Afghanistan in his early years, and he never frowned in the face of the Soviet army, but he planted his head in this rainforest, and was almost broken through by the Takata Wing of the 31st Division, and finally desperately led the commando team up to plug the gap. The door of the head was also scraped by the bayonet.

"How many people? Can you see the number? Lin Diannan dropped his pen, picked up the telescope and walked to the observation window.

"Fukuoka United has gone down, and it has been replaced by Takada United raised by a son of a bitch!" The enemy was very red when he saw him, and Huang Peien hated to lead the troops up in person.

In the binoculars, the Takata Wing, which had just come up, formed a wave shock formation, and about 3,000 Japanese soldiers rushed towards the Bengal Regiment and the Chindi Brigade Regiment stationed in their positions under the cover of woods and rocks. Seeing this, the staff officer sneered repeatedly: "It's a wave charge formation." These little Japan, just remember to eat but not to fight. Division commander, the heavy artillery regiment is ready. ”

"Then hit! Hit hard! Payne. Take your second regiment to the left to get ready, and hand it over to the Bengalis head-on. Remember, when the shelling is over, give me a hard rush! Break the waist of the Takata United team for me! Lin Diannan ordered loudly, but in fact, he really didn't know the bottom in his heart. After four days of combat effectiveness. The position was already crumbling, so after giving the order, he secretly muttered in his heart: "Commander Li, don't play with me!" "It has been six full days since the departure of the 16th Brigade, and three of the six regiments of the 153rd and 154th Divisions have also been withdrawn, but there is no news of Gangcheng until now, which really makes him very anxious.

"Division commander. Just look at it. Huang Peien didn't know what the division commander was thinking, shouted, and led his second regiment to the left flank woods with a submachine gun. Before the troops could reach their positions, there were bursts of screams behind them. Six 155-mm howitzers, which had just arrived from Kunming last night to support, began to wield. Twelve 105-mm field guns of the division's artillery battalion also fired at the front of the Shannan Heights at the same time. The shells fell on the charging Japanese troops, lifting up large clouds of mud and rubble, carrying the shock wave and shattering the Japanese charging formation to pieces again.

Fifteen minutes later, Takata United was no longer able to maintain their formation. Didn't wait for them to get up from the mud puddle. Huang Peien led the second regiment, like a red-hot iron tongs, to launch a counter-charge towards the left flank of the Takata United. "Yaga! Fire. Fire! What are the artillerymen waiting for? Seeing that the fourth charge was about to be repulsed, Iida Shojiro trembled with anger and ordered the cannon to be fired.

"Lieutenant General, to economize on the use of artillery shells, we don't have much supplies." The Japanese 75-mm mountain guns opened fire, but within a while, the stingy staff officers came to their side and alerted Shojiro Iida.

Hearing the word "supply", the corners of Shojiro Iida and the officers all twitched. If there are enough supplies and a few decent heavy artillery, how can a division of more than 20,000 people be blocked here for four days and four nights by a Chinese miscellaneous division and thousands of Bengali militia? But no matter how distressed he was, he couldn't help it, the navy's failure in the Mariana made the supply fleet have to make a detour from the Coral Sea, which is more than 10,000 kilometers, and it takes at least twenty-four days for the transport ships to go back and forth. Even if the base camp sent supply ships, the priority was Rabaul and the Philippines, so the Bengal side had not received any supplies for a whole month. Moreover, during this month, the troops were constantly attacked and harassed by the guerrillas, and a lot of supplies were consumed.

Thinking of this, Iida panicked. It was originally good, but it was also smooth sailing in Myanmar, as easy as a vacation. But how long have the good days passed? China and Japan declared war. In the past, the navy, which had eyes on the top of its head, was beaten to only half of its main force before the war began, and the north-south sea route was also cut off by the Chinese navy. Therefore, when he heard that China was advancing into India, he was very nervous and tried his best to contact the CPI and Nehru, so he jointly launched a three-sided attack. Originally, according to his plan, Nehru dragged Chandra, the Indian Communist Party fought Lamb, and his two divisions went north directly from Siljar and Imphal, so that they could take the oil of Northeast India and Digboy in one fell swoop, and then use this place as a base for counterattacking China, unite the Indians and Soviets, and kill all the way from Jiangxinpo to Yunnan.

But he did not expect that the two divisions were stubbornly resisted at the same time, and after four days and four nights, they failed to cross Siljair and Imphal.

"Don't stop, keep attacking! Offensive! As soon as the artillery fire stopped, the wing commander of the Takata Wing, Inage Rang Osa, came out of the woods, gathered the soldiers, and gave the order to continue the attack. Seeing that the dense Japanese soldiers charged again in a frenzied shout, Lin Diannan also quickly let the machine gun team specially left behind strengthen the position, and the battle returned to the brutal infantry strangulation.

"Put it here! Bullets, give me bullets. Zhu Biao carried the H32 general-purpose machine gun, asked his comrades to fix the defensive tripod in a hidden trench, and then quickly fixed the machine gun, kicked open the ammunition box, and pulled out a 250-round metal scatterable chain from it. After closing the cap, he used the muzzle air regulator again. The rate of fire was adjusted to 1,000 rounds per minute, and only then did it aim at the Japanese soldiers who pounced like locusts. "Look at Lao Tzu's awesomeness! Snort. The sound of the general-purpose machine gun tearing the oilcloth attracted many Bengali soldiers nearby, and under their surprised and excited gaze, the machine gun spewed out a terrifying fire dragon, and wherever it was strafed, the Japanese troops continued to fall at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Tripods are generally used for defense, when the H32 machine gun has a maximum range of two kilometers. Despite the low efficiency, the rate of fire compensated for the problem of accuracy. Just for a moment. A chain of 250 rounds was emptied. The bullet chains scattered under their feet and the fallen Japanese soldiers in pieces made the Bengali and Chendi Brigade soldiers around them swallow violently.

After firing a chain, the sub-heavy quickly replaces a barrel to ensure design speed. Twenty H32 machine guns of the machine-gun corps became the supporting central axis of the position. With mortars and battalion 12.7mm heavy machine guns, the Takata wing was constantly pulled to the edge of the cliffs of hell. The Japanese army, which is still using "crooked handles", simply cannot imagine how terrible a general-purpose machine gun with thousands of rounds per minute is, but even if they know, they cannot afford to use this kind of "money-burning goods" without resources. ”

"Yaga! Yaga! Yaga! "Daomao is really anxious. He couldn't understand why a miscellaneous division and thousands of guerrillas mentioned in the intelligence had such powerful firepower! The Shannan position on the opposite side is like a piece of iron. No matter how the three wings of the division and regiment attack in turn, they will not move! In four days, the blood of more than 2,000 imperial warriors stained this mountainous area less than five kilometers wide, but it could not make the squadron take even a step back.

The soldiers who saw themselves were again repulsed by machine guns. He was already mad, the great cause of the empire had only been successfully launched, and the road to conquer Asia had just begun, how could he be thwarted here?! "Organize the troops. Follow me! Attack again! Inamorang pulled out his saber and led the team himself. Start the sixth charge of the day. "Let Nara United go up! Both the baggage wing and the engineer wing rushed forward! Today, we must break through the positions of the Chinese people! Seeing this, Iida also tried his best. Not only was it put into an infantry wing again, but even the sappers and baggage wings were pulled out.

Four wings, tens of thousands of soldiers, and only one Chinese infantry regiment, one Bengal regiment and one Chendi regiment, a position less than five kilometers wide, one can imagine how great the pressure is on Lin Diannan. "Crazy! Damn, these little Japanese are crazy, they're all up. Huang Peien was also anxious, and asked the reinforcements loudly: "Division commander, when will the reinforcements arrive?" ”

"It's not coming, they've already gone to support Imphal, and the next batch won't arrive tomorrow morning."

"Tomorrow? The daylilies are cold! ”

"Say tomorrow will be tomorrow, why do you talk so much nonsense! Go and call for Air Force support. Tell you Huang Fatzi, no matter whether Little Japan is crazy or not, Lao Tzu made a military order in front of Commander Li! Before the commander's telegram arrived, he lost his position, and Lao Tzu will be buried with you when he dies! Lin Diannan was also very nervous, the 166th Division went to the battlefield for the first time, and it was really bottomless to fight such a fierce blocking battle. After a scolding of his head and face, the fire in his heart was finally extinguished a little, but when he saw the dense Japanese army, he couldn't help but breathe rapidly. glanced at the slanting sun, and simply gritted his teeth and grabbed the pistol: "Anyone who can hold a gun, all come with me!" Even if you die, you will keep it until noon tomorrow! ”

While the Siljer and Imphal blocking positions were crumbling, Pokaro also welcomed a group of uninvited guests.

The sparse and light rain makes the world foggy at night. Tsering Wanghe lay down in a large crater and took out a handkerchief to wipe the fog off the scope. The crater was blown up by a bomber during the day, and the charred mud combined with his camouflage uniform and camouflage foliage made him look like a low, charred bush. After wiping off his lenses, he first aimed at the steel city in the distance. The traces of the air force bombardment during the day are very obvious, but the dilapidated factory seems to be still working, and the dull crash of heavy steel can not be heard. Steel City was too far for a sniper rifle, so he slowly returned to the Indian National Army post a few hundred meters away. Aiming at the sentry who was smoking, he put his finger on the trigger and saw that there was no signal of action around him, and his mind slowly returned to decades ago.

In the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Marshal Cai was ordered by the president to rectify the southwest, and forcibly abolished the serfdom system that had been delayed for thousands of years on the plateau with iron and blood. In those years, there was a river of blood on the plateau, everyone was in danger, and even the lamas were once grounded and restricted! His prestige can still stop children crying at night. Toast and the noble lord hated him to the core, but they were helpless, because the president fully supported him. He was also given 100,000 long guns and short cannons.

However, Tsering Wangdui and the serfs, who accounted for the vast majority, still regard the marshal and the president as their greatest benefactors, because they liberated everyone, brought education, brought cattle and sheep, and brought prosperity. At that time, he was still very young, and he only remembered that his parents took him, trembling and trembling to the old man who was high up in the past, but his face was pale and cold sweating, and he was kowtowed to the old man who put a gun to his head with a dozen Han soldiers. Happily holding portraits of the marshal and the president, they are enshrined in their homes with incense burning day and night, which is said to bless peace and prosperity. At that time, he remembered the mighty soldiers, the marshals and the president. Afterward. He and his friends went to the pastoral area to study in the pastoral area for free, and his parents also raised a lot of yaks in exchange for a lot of Han family goods, and also added a few younger siblings to him. So when he grew up, he and many of his friends joined the army and became a national defense soldier who defended his family and country. After several years of hard training, he became the best sniper in the brigade. Because of this, I also met another general Yue Peng, who has been rumored for a long time.

"Tsering." A soft thud interrupted him. Turning his head, his comrades-in-arms had already quietly crawled over: "The battalion commander said that the brigade commander will arrive in an hour, and we will seduce the Soviets in the steel city to this side." ”

"Okay."

Like all Tibetan soldiers. Tsering Wangdui is silent and silent, like a lone wolf on the plateau, the most able to endure hardships and the most calm hunter. "Remember. Flare as soon as you hit it! The comrades-in-arms were afraid that he would forget, so they reminded him again. before crawling to the next lurking point.

Ten minutes later, a blinding flashbang burst out of the banks of the Damoder River. The Indian sentry in the scope was obviously stunned, probably not expecting to be touched under his nose. Just as he was about to blow the whistle, Tsering Wangdui pulled the trigger. "Smack." The sentry, with a cloud of blood mist, disappeared behind the sandbag. At this time, the mortars of the assault battalion had already sounded, and in the roaring explosion, the Indian sentries in several other positions were so frightened that they shouted and ran backwards. What made Tsering Wangdui dumbfounded was that almost all the sentries were fleeing to the camp behind, and no one fired a gun to stop them! The Bodhisattva was on top, and even the Indian soldiers in a DP machine gun point that were planned to be cleared by sniping directly dropped their machine guns and ran wildly like ghosts.

Although dumbfounded, his gun did not stop, still shooting coldly one shot after another. In the blink of an eye, all six Indian soldiers who rushed out of the machine-gun point were killed. "Tsering, good fight!" The comrades at the assault machine gun point cocked their thumbs vigorously as they crossed his body. He liked the feeling, quickly replaced it with a new twenty-round magazine, followed his comrades, and rushed to the Indian National Army camp a few hundred meters away.

"Grenades!" In the shouting of the platoon commander, Tsering Wangdui had already rushed into the camp gate. As soon as I entered the door, I saw hundreds of Indian soldiers rushing towards me, and almost without thinking, a rain of grenades smashed over. "Boom, boom." The grenade exploded among the Indian soldiers, and the fragments and steel balls blew up their flesh and blood. As soon as the grenade rain passed, the fully automatic assault rifles rang out.

The 16th Plateau Mountain Brigade, the 17th Jungle Brigade, and the 18th Airborne Brigade were rapid and lightly armed reaction units established by Yang Qiu with his will and thoughts, completely copying the special operations and strategic duty systems of later generations, and were the vanguard in handling border emergencies and wars. Since the formation of the three units, they have participated in dozens of border battles and clashes, large and small, and have already sharpened their blades. In order to arm these three troops, Yang Qiu was not stingy, and as early as two years ago, he replaced all of them with new firearms such as H37 automatic assault rifles and H38 semi-automatic sniper rifles. In particular, the assault rifle with 81 bars and Type 03 as templates, and the 6.8mm SPC bullet is like a small machine gun in the hand, with powerful firepower and extremely fast speed, which makes the fighters love it.

One can imagine how terrible it would be when an elite mountain infantry battalion with more than four hundred assault rifles stormed the unprepared Indian National Regiment's station! So much so that Tsering Wangdui regretted choosing a sniper rifle, because he often only aimed at the target, and was wiped out by his comrades who were separated from the assault. Not only is the weapons and equipment superior, but after more than 20 years of exploration, the three troops have also completely eaten through what Yang Qiu brought, experienced eight years of resistance against Japanese aggression, and softened the army tactics of many local wars in later generations. The entire assault battalion, like a pack of hungry wolves, constantly slashed and cut, choosing the weakest target and biting violently.

"Boom! Rumble! "As several 40-mm grenades pierced through the glass window and exploded inside the enemy's regimental headquarters in the center, more than a dozen Soviet-Indian officers who were awakened were all killed. The Indian soldiers, who had lost their command, were completely headless flies. There was no plan after the sneak attack, so that the Indian infantry regiment, which was more than 2,000 people, was chased by hundreds of commandos like ducks, and they were completely unclear!

The explosion alarmed the Soviet-Indian Seventh Division, which was defending the steel city five kilometers away, and before the raid, the division commander Sani Roman, with his hands on his waist, chatted with several steel technicians of GC International, the fiery molten steel reflected on their faces, and the red was like drinking a few bottles of vodka. Steel is the soul of the army! You can get the Steel City in its entirety. It means that they are invincible in exile in India. The only pity is that most of the products here are inferior crude steel, and there is no technology to produce barrel artillery and armor steel, so only some guns and mortars can be made. But this was already good for them, and the Red Guards did not have these things during the Civil War. Isn't it the same as driving out imperialism?

"Comrade Leon, I will definitely report to the General Secretary and tell him about your contribution to the fight against imperialism!" As a Georgian officer, Sani Loman talked about Stalin when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth, but in fact he had only seen Stalin from a distance at the graduation ceremony of the military academy. A third of the soldiers of his 7th Division were also from Georgia, from Stalin's homeland. Half of it, of course, were Indian Sikh soldiers who he considered to be low in combat effectiveness.

Leon Freeman, from GC International in France, is a steel technician. Naturally, he didn't know the details of Sani Roman. Hearing him say that he could report directly to Stalin and inform himself of his role here, I was very excited, and I was just about to show it. Outside, there was a rumbling explosion. "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! The terrible and piercing sound of the police whistle broke the calm of the steel city, and thousands of soldiers of the 7th Soviet Seal Division and the GC International Column rushed out of the barracks, looking at the fiery northwest with nervous expressions, how many enemies were coming!

"Who is it?"

Report. Comrade division commander! The 76th Regiment of the Twentieth Division was attacked by the squadron! The Indians say, more than a division! ”

"A division!" Sani Romans liked to have a relationship with Stalin. But that doesn't mean he can't do it.

In order to protect the steel city, he worked the defense. Since to the southwest was Japanese-controlled West Bengal, and they were allies for the time being, he deployed the 19th Division, made up of all-Indian soldiers, to Dhanbad in the northeast to protect the copper mines and smelters. The Twentieth Division, also composed entirely of Indian soldiers, was deployed at the Damodr River in the northeast. In his opinion, with the help of the river, the 20th Division could at least double its combat effectiveness. The Seventh Division, two international columns, more than a dozen fighters, and an antiaircraft artillery regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness, were all placed in the center of the steel city to ensure the safety of the steel plant and the railway. This deployment was effective, at least during the day, when the antiaircraft artillery regiment was bombed, two Chinese H-5 bombers were shot down.

But his mistake was to look too highly at those Indian soldiers who had only picked up their guns for four or five months, even with the help of the river, in the face of the sneak attack of the 16th Brigade Assault Battalion, they had no will to fight, and the whole regiment quickly collapsed and melted like spring snow. The collapse of the 76th Regiment quickly spread to the next few regiments, and the scattered Indian soldiers were scattered everywhere, and the brother troops who came up to support them were scattered. So much so that a battalion and a few hundred assault rifles were mistaken for a division by the Indian division commander. Because he believes that the number of "machine guns" on the other side is only so many in divisional units.

The dense explosions and fires made Sani Romanan not take it lightly, and immediately left a regiment, and also left the international column to protect the steel city, and then asked the remaining troops to immediately support the Damoder River, ordering that the enemy must be driven down the river before all the enemy "crosses the river". But just as the main force was rushing to the Moder River, a patchwork of twenty-five T25C tanks, one hundred and eighteen T2 armored vehicles, two thousand bicycles and four hundred motorcycles, a thousand mules and horses, eight thousand elite mountain infantry, two infantry regiments, and three thousand Indian logisticians dragged behind formed an arrow, which had quietly emerged from the highland forest between Danbad and the steel city.

"Kill it!" Standing on the T2 armored vehicle that served as a command vehicle, Li Zongren raised his fingers and his eyes were cold.

Whether it can stabilize the Great Southwest and reverse the situation in India is tonight!
