Chapter 124: Indiscriminate Raid

Ouyang Yun's ultimatum to the Thai people is substantial.

Since Guo Muyi began to clean up the stubborn French plantation owners, the second and third divisions of the mountain land were scattered by Ouyang Yun. At that time, the huge Bobe barracks had actually been vacated for more than two-thirds of the barracks. A week earlier, just as the Japanese and Thai armies had just begun to assemble, Bian Jiansheng's 3rd Division had begun to advance deep into Thailand, and now its advance had penetrated into Prachinbhu, Thailand. The Baojun Army Department began a series of preparatory operations three days ago, and now the entire division has crossed the Thai-Cambodian border and penetrated more than 10 kilometers. This battle has not yet begun, and the Cadet Army has actually invaded Thai territory.

The Bian Jiansheng Department and the Bao Military Department were wreaking havoc in Thailand as if they were in a no-man's land, which was related to Ouyang Yun's indulgence jungle special operations brigade to launch an indiscriminate raid war.

After the Wolf Tooth Squad and the Solidarity Brigade successfully sabotaged the so-called "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Army Asia Camp" preparatory meeting in Bangkok, Ouyang Yun decided to let the jungle special operations brigade carry out special operations on the Thai-Cambodian border. After Zou Jiahui and Cao Yang were rescued, he was annoyed by the performance of the Thais in the encirclement and suppression of Zou Jiahui and Cao Yang, and he decided to give the Thais a little bit of a good look. The order was then changed and the jungle special operations brigade was allowed to carry out indiscriminate targeted killings of Japanese and Thai strongholds. In just one week after that, the Japanese army and the Thai army lost dozens of key strongholds and several hundred officers and men in the Thai-Cambodian border area. After the Japanese army held out for another week, they found that the confrontation of such small units was not at all the opponent of the wolf tooth (the Japanese were still unaware of the existence of the Ludo Unity Brigade), and began to shrink the defensive line, and by the time Yamamoto 56 gave the order to attack, the Japanese and Thai troops began to assemble, and the Japanese and Thai troops had withdrawn about 30 kilometers from the border area. And the area they had withdrawn from had become their first strategic point to capture.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning, Bian Jiansheng's forward troops ambushed a regiment of the Thai army, and the battle immediately began. A Japanese wing quickly outflanked from the south, and exchanged fire with Bian Jiansheng's main force southeast of Sakat Fu. Half an hour after the fierce fighting between the two sides, the air forces of the two Japanese brigades rushed to the battlefield and began to carry out air raids on the positions of the Cadet Corps. The 2nd and 3rd Mountain Divisions were not equipped with special air defense units, so Bian Jiansheng judged the situation and wisely ordered a retreat, leading the main force to withdraw to Pobe.

The Japanese air force had just begun to return home, and the Japanese infantry wing had just launched a pursuit, and a regiment of the Bao Army Headquarters held a heavy column of the wing that had fallen behind from the southeast, and fought a hearty battle of annihilation.

When the squadron rushed back to the rescue, all they saw was a raging fire of logistical trucks, hundreds of dead people, and a herd of screaming donkeys and horses. While they were preparing to join another wing to advance in the direction of Pobe, more than 50 kilometers south of them, a brigade of the Thai army was ambushed by the Bao Army Headquarters. The Thai army, which was quite poorly equipped, was the opponent of the Cadet Army, and after half an hour of fierce fighting, the brigade was routed, and the troops totaling more than 3,000 people were scattered after leaving more than 1,000 corpses. The commander of the brigade fled back to Chachoengsao with only 100 men. Masuda Tomikawa received a report that he was worried that the Bao army would outflank the rear of the two Japanese wings, so he had to let them stay on the spot and wait for the Thai army to recover the lost positions first. He asked his life to contact the commander-in-chief of the Thai army, hoping that the Thai army would be able to recapture the lost southeast area of Chachoengsao. However, the Thai army has been frightened, and although they pretend to gather troops again, they have no intention of marching to the lost territory.

The southern line of the Thai-Cambodian border is in full swing, and the Thai-Lao border is in chaos in Thailand. After the independent brigade under the jurisdiction of the "Lao National Independent Liberation Army" entered the territory of Thailand, the soldiers who came from Orion were fine, and the inferior nature of those guards who bullied the weak was exposed, and they killed people and set fire to many villages, which suddenly caused a miasma of smoke and sorrow all over northeast Thailand, and also made the Thai military feel powerless all at once. As a result, the counteroffensive that the Japanese army was looking forward to became more and more distant.

The fiercest battles took place on the coast of Vung Tau.

Because there was no navy and there was a lack of shore defense artillery, and the French air force, which only had a few dozen old fighters, did not dare to meet the battle at all, the cadet army and the French army stationed in the coastal defense of Vung Tau could only passively respond to the battle from beginning to end.

The Richong Eagle aircraft carrier fleet arrived in a sea area of nearly 15 kilometers and cooperated with the naval aviation to use naval guns to wantonly and indiscriminately bombard the coastal fortifications in Vung Tau. And after nearly an hour of continuous bombardment and shelling, the devils of the two brigades began to rush to the beach under the leadership of a young man named Iwamura Zubei.

More than 2,000 devils rode dozens of large and small landing craft, with a landing craft of more than 1,000 tons as the center, and launched a beaching after another round of shelling was over.

The prolonged bombardment and artillery bombardment caused heavy losses to the defenders, with more than 400 casualties among the French and 200 casualties among the Cadet Corps and more than 200 casualties among the Cadet Corps. This was a battle in which the ratio of strength was completely unequal, and they could only be beaten for several hours without being able to fight back, which was a great test of the troops' will to fight. What Emmons feared the most happened when deserters appeared in his unit, and a platoon fled en masse. In this regard, he did not have the slightest relent, and directly corrected the platoon commander on the spot, and put his gun at the soldiers who joined the fleeing ranks and returned to the front line.

Seeing that the little devil's landing craft had entered the mortar range, Emmons looked at the position of the student army next to him, and found that all the student soldiers were lying on their stomachs silently, and he said to Cao Bixiao: "Do you need to increase troops, look at the size of the Japanese army, there should be two thousand people!" ”

Cao Bixiao: "It's only 2,000 people!" You'd better wait for the attack signal of the 1st Mountain Division! Commander Li on the opposite side is very good at fighting. ”

On the side of the 1st Mountain Division, the commander of the front line was only a regiment commander named Li Jiansheng. There is no way for Emmons to go to the front line in person at the beginning, there is no general available to his subordinates, and if he also lets his regimental commander sit in charge, it is estimated that the people have run out at this time.

Ouyang Yun was not worried about the Japanese army landing in the Vung Tau area, Chu Tiange's two divisions were stationed nearby, unless the Japanese army was willing to invest a division at one time, so less than this scale, even if they could land, they would eventually be driven back into the sea. As for why he had to let the French and Huang Haifu's first mountain division come thousands of miles to fight this battle, his plan was also simple, that is, to let the French know the ferocity of the Japanese, so as to accumulate reasons for the next layout.

One brigade each of the Cadet Army and the French Army rushed from Hanoi, and neither artillery units were deployed, which also determined the nature of this beach offensive and defensive battle, which would be a bitter battle.

"Let the mortar platoon get ready to fire!" Cao Bixiao said.

Emmons nodded. A general wants to listen to a captain, which seems to be a bit ridiculous, but Cao Bixiao showed super combat power in the operation to rescue Degu and Clary, and completely convinced Emmons, so Emmons did not reject it in his heart.

When the landing craft at the forefront of the Japanese army was only 1,000 meters away from the shore fortifications, the sound of "empty" sounded, and Li Jiansheng first ordered the artillery to be fired.
