Chapter 169: All-out attack
The Thai army's chain of command is quite chaotic, and the biggest drawback caused by this is Field Marshal Sarit and Prime Minister Cloak? Kan Song often gives his own orders, which causes the commanders below to be at a loss.
When Charlie and his men began to engage in the counteroffensive, Sari had just learned from Khamson that Ranluga was stockpiling a large amount of arms supported by the Japanese, and the old man was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.
A quarter of an hour later, his side was urgently adjusting its strategy, wanting to transfer two more divisions of troops to besiege Ranluga, when suddenly an urgent report came from the frontline headquarters of Ranluga, saying that his troops had been subjected to an unprecedented and fierce counterattack by the British, and now that the formation had been disrupted, in order to preserve his strength, Sugar would have to retreat to Bangkok. Lieutenant General Socha, the commander of the Thai army defending Bernani Kong, called him again to report to him, saying that the Thai troops of the two divisions stationed there had been attacked by heavy artillery of the Cadet Corps, and that the defensive positions that more than 10,000 Thai soldiers and 50,000 civilians had worked hard to build up in three days were destroyed, and he asked him to immediately ask for help from Lieutenant General Masuda, commander of the First Army of the Japanese Navy and Land in Chachoengao, so that the Japanese army could attack the Cadet Army from the flank to relieve the frontal pressure on his troops.
Chu Tiange carried out the "three-light policy" to the end, so it advanced relatively slowly, which paralyzed the top echelons of the Thai army and the Japanese army. The Red Fox Squad and the Tianwei Squad only had a total of twelve people, and the target was so small that the top brass of the Thai military and the Japanese military had not been aware of it, and they had not implicated the actions of the British prisoners of war with the Cadet Army, let alone that the Cadet Army had decided to rescue this British prisoner of war, and the focus of the operation had changed.
Chu Tiange was also really bold, he gathered the four self-propelled artillery regiments under his command, and let them carry out a sneak attack on the position of the Bernani Air Thai Army without a single tank unit and infantry. During the day, the reconnaissance planes of the Thai army and the Japanese army also saw the chariots of the Chutian Song Department wreaking havoc in the rice fields. The self-propelled guns of the four regiments used up all the shells they carried in a quarter of an hour, not to mention that the so-called defensive positions of the Thais were all wooden and earth, and even concrete structures could not withstand the heavy artillery bombardment of this density. Lieutenant General Suo Cha didn't dare to guess that the Cadet Corps had only dispatched artillery, and thought that the Cadet Corps was preparing for artillery fire before a large-scale attack, so how could he not panic?
After receiving a call for help from Socha, Sarit lost his temper at all, and the old Thai man thought about canceling the plan to continue to increase the number of troops in Langluga, and ordered the two divisions to reinforce Bernani Kong, and at the same time sent a telegram to Masuda Fuchuan, asking him to send a sufficient number of troops to attack the student army attacking Bernani Kong from the flank anyway, so as to help them hold the most rearmost line of defense in front of the capital Bangkok.
Sha Li didn't know what to do, and just when he felt anxious, Masuda's situation was not much better than his. After two days of silence, the Bao Army Department and the Bian Jian Sheng Department finally began to avenge the commander-in-chief. The two men each sent a brigade, one to the west to attack the Golden Lake in Prachin, and the other to launch a tentative attack on the Japanese outpost in Chachoengsao. The Japanese army had a division in Prachinfu and a brigade in Chachoengsao, and Masuda did not pay attention to this point of apprenticeship. And the reason why he felt uneasy was because Guo Dabu, who had once raised the banner of revenge for the commander-in-chief in the Tyrone military camp, suddenly disappeared.
When Major General Haneda Haruka Sha Li's telegram for help was presented, the old devil glanced at it and threw it away, staring at the battle map on the wall and said, "We must not act rashly until we find the army that captured the Tailong military camp. I suspect that the people must have set some trap waiting for us! This branch army was the first to raise the banner of revenge for Ouyang Yun, and its madness was definitely no less than that of the China army raging in the southeast-" He suddenly thought of something, looked up at Haneda and exclaimed, "Haneda-kun, is this possible?" The reason why the British prisoners of war were successful was simply because there were people in China who helped? โ
Haneda thought about this possibility, and said: "It's completely possible, we don't know the combat strength of the British, to be honest, I don't think they can resist the suppression of the elite of the two thousand imperial army with their bare hands and bare fists!" Could it be that there is a sizable army that has broken through our blockade and quietly infiltrated the Bangkok area? โ
Masuda slapped the table and said, "Why don't you have this possibility?" The Thai army is not our Imperial Japanese Army, although they are numerous, but the defensive arrangement has no depth at all. It is not difficult to do this with the ability of the army. Don't forget, they have the kind of helicopters that can take off and land vertically, and it's still very simple to carry a few hundred people through our blockade zone. And as long as we break through our blockade, it will be equivalent to a fish into the sea, how can those straw bales in Thailand prevent them! โ
"Your Excellency, something is wrong!"
"Haneda-kun, what did you find?"
"One thing I remember is that the arms we have to support the Thais are in Langluga, and with the nature of the Thais, they should not have been fully distributed. The British had apparently received this batch of munitions, and with the help of the cadet soldiers, the Anda Brigade โโ! โ
"Eight squares! What a bunch of pigs the Thais are! Haneda-kun, you immediately call the commander of the Anda Brigade and ask him to postpone the attack on Lanluga, and wait until we figure out the specific situation. โ
"Hello!"
When Major General Andamu received the telegram from Haneda himself to postpone the attack, he was already only ten kilometers away from Ranluga. At this time, the Thais were being chased and beaten by the British led by Charles, and Anda heard the sound of gunfire from a distance, and was about to order the troops to speed up, but when he received this telegram, he was confused. The little devil first ordered the troops to be on alert and rest, and then walked to the forefront of the troops surrounded by more than a dozen devils, listening intently to the gunfire coming from ahead. After listening for a few minutes, he said to Chief of Staff Kazuka Kazuka Satoshi Nakasa with a gloomy face: "Obviously, the British are fighting back against the Thais with the weapons we have supported the Thaisโthis is a great irony. โ
Hanazuka shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, the Thais are not qualified allies at all, I really can't figure out why His Excellency Yamamoto values them so much." โ
"The need for righteousness, if the empire wants to develop in Southeast Asia, it must cherish its feathers."
"Then we-"
"The command said that there may be a large number of cadet soldiers involved in the camp raiding of British prisoners of war, so let's waitโah!" Before Anda finished speaking, suddenly a fire burst out in the night in the distance, and then a gunshot rang out, and he was shot in the right chest and fell into Hanazuka's arms with a scream.
Hanazuka immediately panicked, first shouting "Your Excellency", and then ordered: "Quick, protect the brigade commander!" Yamaki, lead the gendarmerie to catch up! โ
"Hello!" Yamaki answered, and ran towards the place where the guns were lit up with hundreds of gendarmes. And behind him, the little devils were like a big enemy, and more than 1,000 people took action, and soon surrounded Anda and the others in the three layers and the outer three layers.
