Chapter 358: The One Who Sent Death Is Coming

On the evening of January 30, the 3rd Infantry Battalion and the 3rd Reconnaissance Company of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army arrived at Samut Prakanpo. However, they did not enter the urban area www.biquge.info of Samut Prakan Po, but stationed in the eastern part of the Wangbin River.

"1 Company, immediately go and blow up those bridges over the Wangbin River. The 2nd Company went to search for the boats on the Wangbin River, and all of them came to our side. 3 and 4 companies, immediately build a defensive line. Reconnaissance company to investigate the enemy's situation. Major Zhou Yuanhua immediately gave an order.

"Yes, Battalion Commander." Several company commanders replied.

"Battalion commander, what if the Thais resist and refuse to hand over the ship?" The commander of the 2nd Company was a little worried.

"If they refuse to hand over the ships, then they prove that they are in favor of the Japanese themselves. Anyone who supports the day himself* is our enemy! Zhou Yuanhua seriously flashed a trace of ruthlessness.

In such an emergency, it is clear that there is nothing else to care about. When necessary, killing some people is nothing at all. What's more, these Thais have never been good birds.

The companies under the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army immediately took action.

Now Zhou Yuanhua is full of confidence in winning this battle. You know, in addition to their infantry battalion, the military department also sent an infantry regiment to support them. Although, after the arrival of that infantry regiment, his command had to be handed over. However, Zhou Yuanhua didn't mind this. As long as the main force of the Japanese-Thai coalition can be annihilated in this battle. It should be his credit, and it is absolutely indispensable.

"Ignition!" With an order, only a boom was heard. A bridge over the Wangbin River was blown up in one fell swoop.

This is the 1st Company of the 3rd Infantry Battalion, which is using explosives to blow up the bridges over the Wangbin River. As long as these bridges are blown up, then even if the Japanese-Thai forces reach Samut Prakan, there will be no way to cross the river. At that time, they had no other way but to attack the defense line of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. And the defense line of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is easy to break? Their strong firepower is not vegetarian. In the previous battles, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has used powerful firepower to ruthlessly teach the Japanese themselves how to behave.

The 2nd Company collected boats at Samut Prakan but met with resistance. Although, the Japanese army did not station troops in Samut Prakan. However, there are Thai police in the city. Hundreds of policemen, armed with anti-38 rifles, fought against the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Faced with such a situation, the commander of the 2nd company immediately gave the order to suppress it.

Mortars, grenadiers, light and heavy machine guns all attacked. Suddenly, the police forces that only had light weapons such as anti-38 rifles suffered heavy losses. The rest of the people, too, were frightened and immediately raised their hands in surrender.

Next, the 2nd Company began to collect boats from house to house. All boats, whether they were cargo ships, passenger ships, or fishing boats, had to sail to the places designated by the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army to take care of them, so as not to be used by the Japanese themselves.

Of course, in this process, there are many Thais who cooperate. However, there are also many Thais who resist. Some Thais regard ships as their life. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army wants to be recruited, which is undoubtedly their lives! Of course they are going to rebel.

It's just that the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has never been easy to talk about. Except for their own compatriots, the rest of the people are regarded by them as indigenous. These Thai natives dared to resist, and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army immediately suppressed them.

When a dozen resisting Thais were killed, and the bodies were still being picked up, the Thais were honest.

These natives are not fools. Knowing the strength of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. If they dare to continue to entangle, I am afraid that they will lose their lives in the end.

At the same time, the 3rd and 4th companies were building a defensive line. The frontal line of defense, which needed to be defended by the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, was less than two kilometers wide. But even so, for the 3rd Infantry Battalion, which has less than 1,000 men, it is also very lacking in strength. However, the 2nd Infantry Regiment will soon arrive. So, they have nothing to worry about either. When the 2nd Infantry Regiment arrives, the gap in their strength will disappear immediately. The whole line of defense will become strong. Relying on strong firepower is enough to make the Japanese army pay an extremely heavy price. This has been proven in previous battles.

On the afternoon of the 31st, the 2nd Infantry Regiment arrived. More than 4,000 people joined the defense line here, making the defense line impregnable. Colonel Peng Zheng, commander of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, took over the command of the command.

"Camp Commander Zhou, I envy that kid of Lao Han, with a guy like you, that kid is lucky." Colonel Peng Zheng said with some jealousy.

Once the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army takes Thailand, it will inevitably begin to expand its army. When the time comes, these regiment commanders will have the opportunity to be promoted to division commanders and become generals. It's just that if so many regiment commanders want to be promoted, if they don't have the combat merits, it is obviously impossible to get promoted. In terms of the promotion system, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has always been able to rely only on military merits.

"Head Peng, you're laughing. The 2nd Infantry Regiment is also full of talents, people who are stronger than me, everywhere. Zhou Yuanhua looked very humble.

"Well, if you are humble, you can be proud. Your boy's audacity this time has given me a great credit. My surname is Peng, and I will definitely remember this love. "Colonel Peng Zheng is also an iron-clad man.

"Captain Peng is serious." Major Zhou Yuanhua knows what Peng Zheng said. If they can win this time, Colonel Peng Zheng can also occupy a favorable position in the next promotion by virtue of his military exploits.

The 2nd Infantry Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment will work closely together in the battle of Samut Prakan. Together, there were more than 5,000 of them. With so many troops, there is no problem at all to resist the attack of the Japanese-Thai coalition army.

On February 1, the reconnaissance company reported the arrival of a Japanese unit of more than 1,000 men. However, these Japanese troops did not attack, but were stationed on the spot.

On the afternoon of February 2, another Japanese unit of more than 3,000 men arrived. This unit was the main force of the 56th Engineer Wing and the 56th Baggage Wing of the Japanese Army, led by Lieutenant General Yuzo Matsuyama, commander of the 56th Division of the Japanese Army.

When Colonel Peng Zheng and Major Zhou Yuanhua learned of this situation, they both looked at each other and smiled. They all know that this is a death send. In the eyes of the two groups, a total of more than 4,000 Japanese troops, there was no difference between those who were sent to death.
