Units with relatively low morale and discipline are most likely to collapse when they face relatively large setbacks. The Royal Armoured Corps is the best example of this, since it was formed in 1952, they never expected such a battle, dozens of fighters dropped nearly 100 missiles, more than 95 percent of their tanks and armored vehicles scrapped 70 or 80 of their tanks and armored vehicles. Such a loss is impossible for Malaysians to bear.

Originally, the infantry of the armored corps in military trucks were followed by the armored troops, but after seeing the severe blows suffered by the armored troops, the motorized troops behind did not think about coming forward to support or anything, but did not dare to move forward an inch.

"Why is this what it looks like?!" Aishak? Ngawang, powerless to look at the sky, he is the commander of a mechanized infantry regiment of an armored corps, and a descendant of a local nobleman, he is used to being powerful and blessed on weekdays, and he has never put anyone in his eyes, and he feels that the regiment he leads is the strongest army, but the infantry chariots of their regiment in their early 100s have been completely destroyed before they have met the enemy, a large number of crew and crew casualties in the car, and even collapsed houses and chaotic neighborhoods everywhere here, As a result, he was completely unable to gather the remaining troops in a short period of time to intercept and kill the Chinese army at Subang Airport.

After the Chinese Air Force had made a few stretching maneuvers in the air and had no bombs to drop, the Malays, who had thought they were going to breathe a sigh of relief, were shocked to find that the troops of the Eighth Brigade of the Airborne Corps, the target of their original plan, had arrived as scheduled.

The Eighth Brigade of the Airborne Forces was parachuted into an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers on the western front of the Malay Peninsula, and its own strength was not much, and weapons such as paratrooper fighting vehicles were even less.

If they face off against the Royal Armoured Corps, it is difficult to say whether they will win or lose, because the Panzer Corps has more tanks and troops, while the 8th Brigade is a loyal Red Alert soldier, and they are also equipped with a certain number of anti-tank missiles. But now the Air Force has stretched out its hand and knocked the stumbling block in front of them into pieces, although it is still a little in the way, but it will not stop their steps.

In the chariot that Zu Xiaozhou was in, the commander immediately ordered after observing that the chariot had entered the firing range: "Lock on to the enemy's armored target, set the parameters, and launch the Red Arrow-73 anti-armor missile!" ”

"Red Arrow-73 anti-armor missile, launch!"

There is no greeting at first, the first is the bombardment of missiles, ZBD-03's 30mm cannon has limited lethality, but the Red Arrow-73 is a real ruthless guy, a missile suddenly shoots out, and the anti-tank missile has a very peculiar spiral flight trajectory in the process of level flight, which is related to its wings and power, which also makes it more difficult for the enemy to intercept, of course, the Ma army does not have the ability to directly intercept this missile.

The missile directly exploded a Scorpion 90 light tank, unfortunately, this is the last light tank in the regiment of Aishak, and the few vehicles he has left are basically armored vehicles.

Several Cadillac Gage's LAV-100 four-wheeled armored vehicles, not to mention the 90mm main gun, were not installed, and not even a 7. There are no 62mm Gatling guns (Minigun), mainly some large-caliber heavy machine guns mounted on the roof of the car, the Ma army has long fought against the guerrillas and rebels in the jungle and the suburbs, they rarely use such heavy weapons, but in the face of the regular army's PLA, there is only a share of losses.

The 30mm cannon fired continuously, and the tungsten core armor-piercing shells effortlessly pierced through the Malaysian armored vehicles that were still trying to resist, and after the four LAV-100s were incapacitated, and only the bullets were used to make a clank on the ZBD-03 in front of them, Aishak's troops finally could not hold on, and either jumped out of the vehicles and trucks and fled for their lives, or they threw away their weapons and surrendered with their heads in their hands.

This time the killing of prisoners did not start again, and although the losses were heavy, the Ma army still had some operational vehicles, and if you were not careful, you would still cause casualties. Moreover, in the absence of weapons, the surrender of these Malaysian soldiers and the seizure of their weapons and vehicles are crucial to maintaining the fighting situation.

They left two platoons of infantry to take prisoners and prepare to transport the captured armoured vehicles and other weapons back to the temporary headquarters where they had established a foothold in Kuala Lumpur. Zu Xiaozhou and the main chariot troops continued to embark on the journey and attacked Subang Airport.

Without the Royal Armored Corps as an obstacle, the reserve military strength of the garrison airfield was naturally unable to resist the sharp airborne troops, and the Chinese army took control of the airfield very smoothly. At this time, Zu Xiaozhou also received information from the brigade commander Zhu Tonghua, and three hours later, the first batch of support materials and two battalions of heavy troops from China would arrive by air.

As long as the heavy forces are in place, it will not be a problem to hold the blocks they already control. It's just that Zu Xiaozhou looked at the gloomy Kuala Lumpur sky, and couldn't help but wonder how this battle would end in the name of protecting overseas Chinese and evacuating overseas Chinese, which was actually definitely the rhythm of the opening film.

The Chinese army has been advancing like a bamboo, which naturally brings greater panic to the top of the Malaysian government.

In the Prime Minister's Office, Prime Minister Dato, who just successfully defended his title in August this year? Mahathir? Root? Muhammad paced anxiously around his office, still jealous and insecure, even though he had drawn almost all the military and police forces he could draw from to surround his residence.

The Minister of Defense sitting in front of him is also a mild-mannered Abdullah who has just taken office this year? Badawi, it's just that this defense minister doesn't know so much about military things, in fact, he made a defense minister for a year, and the previous defense ministers were all concurrently held by Mahathir himself.

"Minister Badawi, how can you still sit so calmly at this time, the Chinese invaders are doing whatever they want in our capital, and we must find a way to counteract!" Mahathir was loud, but he walked away a little, obviously due to nervousness.

Badawi said helplessly: "A few hours ago, we were able to contact the troops in other stations, but now the telephone line is broken, and the radio seems to be interfered with something, and our situation cannot be known to the outside world." The Chinese are trying to keep us inside an invisible wall. ”

Mahathir asked sternly, "Mr. Minister, what should we do then?" "As the longest-serving prime minister in Malaysia's history, Mahathir Mohamad has done a lot of things, and on the whole has contributed to the development of Malaysia, but from the perspective of the horizontal comparison of the world, the level of this politician is actually quite average, including looking eastward to learn from Japan and South Korea, liberal economic privatization and other policies, all of which have caused considerable pain and dissatisfaction. During his tenure, Mahathir Mohamad nurtured the originally impoverished Malays, weakened the economic dominance of the Chinese in the region, suppressed the development of the Chinese, and repeatedly made racist and extreme Islamist remarks.

Now is undoubtedly a matter of life and death for Malaysia, and Mahathir feels that one person is short and two are long, and he has to turn to his cabinet members for help.

Foreign Minister Condoleezza Rice? Yatim looked at the information in his hand suspiciously, and said: "This time China's invasion is really too unbelievable, there was no warning before, and then it suddenly started on us. In the middle of the night, they were sent to us by the embassy with a statement of condemnation and a diplomatic note explaining the actions they were about to send troops. But the unforeseen nature of the riots, and the fact that their troops seemed to be well prepared, and that we could not react to them at once, was incomprehensible. ”

Badawi speculated: "Could it be the bitter meat meter used by the Chinese?" They had expelled our Royal Malaysian Navy in the South China Sea before, and if they had the intention of inciting and causing a ****, they would take advantage of the situation and invade us under the pretext of protecting overseas Chinese and evacuating overseas Chinese. ”

Mahathir patted his head, looking incomprehensible, and said: "The point is that China is so far away from us, what are they doing to invade us?" What kind of benefits will it have, if it is known to the international community, it will definitely not be recognized! ”

Artim shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, after all, it was my country's thugs who massacred the Chinese first." ”

Mahathir said angrily: "That is also my country's internal affairs, isn't China claiming not to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries?" Why are you interfering with us at this time and killing our innocent people? He also didn't want to think about whether the thugs with blood on their hands could be considered innocent.

Badawi said: "Everyone's eyes are bright, we only broke out in the afternoon, the troops sent by China the next morning, this is absolutely impossible to improvise, everything is a conspiracy of the Chinese, we have to explain it to the world!" ”

Artem shook his head again and said: "Impossible, our communication has been cut off by the Chinese, and now the situation is all said by the Chinese, which is very detrimental to our public opinion orientation." ”

Mahathir's face turned pale, he slapped the table, and said loudly: "We have signed a five-nation joint defense, and now that we are facing aggression, our allies Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore should all send troops to help, as long as we hold on and find a way to convey our voices, we can finally drive out the invaders, just as we drove the Japanese away during World War II!" ”

Badawi was noncommittal, but said: "Mr. Prime Minister, now we should first consider whether to withdraw from here, more than an hour ago Chinese have occupied Subang airport, their air force will definitely send supplies in an endless stream, then we will face more enemies, if we continue to resist in Kuala Lumpur, the danger will be ......"

Mahathir Mohamad shuddered, unable to imagine that the head of government of his own country would be captured, and his face would be embarrassed.

"Okay, activate the government's emergency evacuation plan, let's temporarily retreat to Seremban, oh no, retreat to Johor Bahru! As long as we win the attention of foreign public opinion and win sympathy, we can exert enough pressure on the shameless Chinese to save the situation! ”

It's just that they only touched the edge of the battle for public opinion, but they didn't expect their opponents to play the public opinion war.
