February 1, 1916, Panamanian border, El Real. γ I want: super fast update γ
"Cannonballs!"
Zeng Laosan kicked the empty ammunition box that flew close, and was beckoning the back point to pick up the shells, when he suddenly felt a buzzing sound overhead, and 5 American version of the Camel F1 fighter appeared in the field of vision.
"Machine gun!"
Zeng Laosan's greeting in the millimeter light machine gun and the meter heavy machine gun roared at the same time, and the manic bullets formed a barrage over the artillery position, and the three camels that tried to rush over and drop the bomb were swept into a sieve in an instant, and the other fled back in a panic before the bomb was dropped, and only one was lucky to pass through the air defense network and flew to the position to drop the bomb.
Looking at the bombs, the artillerymen, including Zeng Laosan, lay down one after another, but fortunately, the small bombs used by the Yankees were too powerful, and they disappeared after a cloud of black smoke, but this brave guy was also unlucky, and was pierced by several bullets in the cockpit, and died before it fell to the ground.
Seeing that four planes were knocked out, Zeng Laosan smacked his mouth fiercely, unlike other theaters where the sky was occupied, the conditions in the Panama theater were too poor, and Colombia behind had almost no industrial base, and the vehicle gasoline could only barely be enough, not to mention the efficient aviation gasoline, and the long transportation line at sea would face the US Navy's stuck, so in addition to a few reconnaissance seaplanes in the Colombian naval base, he could only watch the Yankees "lay eggs" on his side.
Fortunately, they brought enough machine guns before departure, and with the slow speed and small bombs of the American old planes, as long as they did not come hundreds or thousands at once, they were not afraid of any .......
"Enemy aircraft."
Zeng Laosan muttered a few times secretly and was about to return to the cover, but the warning sounded again, and when he was about to see if it was the one who didn't open his eyes and dared to fly over, he froze suddenly, and then slapped himself in the mouth.
"Damn, what a crow's mouth!"
On the horizon, there was a black pressure of planes, and there were at least dozens of them, which frightened everyone, and they hurriedly retreated into the bunker, and the machine gunners were all wide-eyed and ready to do a big job.
"Fire!"
With a loud shout, the 12 Viper machine guns on the 12 Night Cats of the artillery regiment were the first to spit out tongues of fire, and because the ten rounds were mixed with a tracer bullet of the colliding star, even during the day, you could see the line of fire in the sky shuttling continuously.
Looking down from the sky, the Chinese artillery position hidden at the edge of the rainforest was like a nest, and countless tongues of fire burst out from under the dense leaves, but this time the American pilots learned to be obedient and flew to 5,000 meters in one breath, a distance that even a big poisonous snake could not reach, but although the bomb was successfully dropped, the small bomb that fell at this height was really outrageous.

Explosions rose from the dense forest, and after a few moments, the American planes that had finished dropping bombs left, and after glaring fiercely, Zeng Laosan slipped a 105-mm shell into the chamber.
"Boom......."
The artillerymen, who had been silent for more than ten minutes, roared again, and 48 105mm howitzers continued to pour shells on El Real, a few kilometers away, but the dense jungle did not make the shelling very effective.
Although the Japanese soldiers in charge of the attack were supported by artillery shells, the dense jungle blocked most of the targets, and the American troops had recently reinforced the number of machine guns, so the troops had to pay a lot of sacrifices for each step forward.
This scene made Cai Yi frown.
He joined the army in 1904, joined the Marine Corps in 1906, and became a colonel in 1912.
Unlike other theaters of operations, which are nominally called allies, but in fact are mainly attacked by the Chinese masters, the Panama theater is indeed a multinational force, the 3rd Division of the Royal Chinese Marine Corps, the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, the 3rd Division of the Korean Army, and the 3rd Division of the Colombian Second Army.
It is very difficult to organize 80,000 troops from four countries in series, with uneven levels of combat effectiveness and various equipment, and it is very difficult to organize them in series; China, Japan, and Korea are all from one region, and their equipment is all Chinese, but the Colombian army is a lot of miscellaneous, and many soldiers even hold broadswords, bows and arrows before going to war, until they have recently completed their gun and shooting training.
The roads and environment are so poor that it took a month to open a road in the 30-kilometre pristine rainforest along the border between Colombia and Panama, with at least 1,000 soldiers dying from illness and accidental non-combat attrition.
After getting out of the jungle, you will face the first pass after entering Panama, El Real.
El Real is located in the central part of the province of DariΓ©n in southern Panama, which is a strategic route into Panama from the south, where the US military deployed about 5,000 troops before the war, and now it has increased to 20,000.
The Marine Corps is a lightly armed unit, not equipped with heavy 152-mm self-propelled howitzers, coupled with the lack of air cover, if the troops do not move for a long time, they will become a target for American pilots.
"Yamano Shaosa."
"Hey!" Yamano Shaozo thought he was going to accept criticism, so he quickly lowered his head.
He was formerly the captain of the Osaka Wing Squadron of Japan, and briefly retired after the defeat of the Sino-Japanese War, until the government reorganized the army, returned to the army, and became the commander of the first division because of his outstanding performance.
Like all Japanese soldiers, he has a stubborn brute force, in fact, this kind of strength is in every East Asian soldier, but Japan is particularly obvious because of the sense of distress of the island nation, since the end of the war, many Japanese people think that Japan will be reduced to slavery, but with the gradual normalization of relations between China and Japan, coupled with Wang Shizhen's land reform in Japan, Japan has stepped out of shogunate politics and gradually began to regain its vitality.
Japan is a strange nation, worship the strong is the nature of this country, from the Han and Tang dynasties to the end of the Song Dynasty, almost all of them are the only ministers of the land of China, only in modern times because of the sight of the foreigners' cannon ships, began to be dissatisfied with themselves, in the fanatical instigation of militarism into the road of no return.
After the emergence of Li Mo, the Asian history was set right, the Japanese militarism was almost slaughtered, so that Japan returned to the previous path, a generation of politicians are clear, at this moment Japan's only way is to closely follow China's side, there is hope to join the future prosperity of Asia, so Japan is the first country to agree to China to send troops to participate in the war, even more active than North Korea, but also imitated the Chinese army model, and set up 10 divisions at one time to hand over to the leadership of the Chinese General Staff.
Cai Ye looked at the mountains and fields around him as if he was waiting to admit his mistakes, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and he pointed to El Real on the map and said: "Shan Ye Shaozuo, on your left is a regiment of mine, and on your right is a division of the Colombian Army, and they have already helped you drag 10,000 American troops, so you should keep rushing forward, instead of dragging in place!" β
Shan Ye looked at the thick red red defense line in front of El Real, and he also had a bitter feeling in his heart, not to mention that there were a full 10,000 American troops gathered here, and the large number of machine guns that the United States was equipped with alone made his troops bleed, but it was true that he had not completed the task, so he had to grit his teeth and said: "Colonel, please rest assured, I will definitely open the passage before night!" β
"Huh." Seeing Shan Ye's expression as if he was going to die, Cai Ye smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Shan Ye Shaozuo, I am not the kind of person who casually sacrifices the lives of Japanese soldiers, my armored battalion will help you open the way!" β
"Armored battalion!"
As soon as he heard Cai Ye's words, Shan Ye's confidence suddenly increased, he knew that the armored battalion of the Marine Corps was powerful, and those models of tanks were simply infantry killers, and it would be much smoother to open the way with them.
"By the way, I heard that you don't have your own car yet?"
Yamano suddenly looked embarrassed, Japan is not as rich as China, although part of the military spending and equipment are provided by China, and the war dividends can also be obtained in the future, but at present, it is shy in its pocket, and even unarmed jeeps are still luxury goods, as for the Wildcat armored vehicles used by Chinese officers, a battalion has just been equipped in China, and it is estimated that officers like him will not be able to turn after the war is over.
"Xiao Zhang, go and fetch a wild cat, it will be counted as a gift from me to Shan Ye Shaozo."
Cai Yi's voice suddenly made the eyes of several North Korean and Ecuadorian staff officers and officers in the command hot, and every time they saw the nimble and small Wildcat armored vehicle, they were envious, wishing they could have one, but the Japanese officers clenched their fists excitedly.
Shan Ye was stunned, this is a great honor!
After a while, a wild cat equipped with a light machine gun stopped at the entrance of the headquarters, and looking at the brand-new armored car, Cai Yi smiled and said, "Shan Ye Shaozuo, it's yours." β
"Major!"
"Hehe, don't thank me, this is the treatment that an allied commanding officer should have, if you really want to thank me...... When Cai Ye said this, he suddenly stopped, glanced around and got closer, and then whispered: "Panama is the lifeline of Asia and the Pacific, and the security and interests of all Pacific countries are related here, including Japan!"
As far as I know, nearly 5,000 Japanese and us Chinese laborers were enslaved and died here in order to build the canal, so this canal should not be in the hands of whites, and even the Americans should not be too deeply involved.
We need a clean Panama! β
Be neat and tidy!
A cold glow exploded in Shan Ye's eyes, and an indescribable bloodthirsty feeling suddenly surged in his heart, clean and clean, this is too simple!
Ten minutes later, when Yamano returned to the Japanese command camp with the wild cat, almost the entire barracks were detonated, and the eyes of all the Japanese soldiers and officers were red with envy, and they wished they could sit on it and experience it in person.
Half an hour later, however, the Japanese soldiers were dumbfounded, only to see dozens of heavily armored Cheetah 3 tanks appear outside the camp, and before they could understand why the tanks, which the Chinese regarded as treasures, had driven here, the cars in the mountains were already surrounded by officers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle is related to the security of this and the future of Asia, Colonel Cai Ye has sent his tank battalion to support us, I hope you must fight to the death!"
"We don't need prisoners! We must clear the road to El Real before night! β
"Hey!"
"Charge, through the jungle, the enemy is ahead!" On the command vehicle, the mountains shouted feverishly, and more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers followed 48 Cheetah tanks and plunged headlong into the dense rainforest.
