1825 My New Daming

Chapter 340 No retreat!Hands up! (ask for subscription, ask for monthly pass)

Of course, it is a carrier-based aircraft flying over from the sea!
They all took off from the four aircraft carriers of the First Aviation War, a total of 128, all of which are floating Ssangyongs on the water-although Zhuge Weidao's main carrier-based aircraft landed directly on the deck of the aircraft carrier, this is not the case. It can be done overnight.It has to be replaced with a new type of carrier-based aircraft, and some modifications have to be made to the aircraft carrier, such as adding arresting cables, arresting nets, landing aid mirrors, etc., and the pilots have to undergo corresponding training.

So the one sent by Zhuge Weidao to blow up Temasek Island today is still the very clumsy-looking Shuanglong on the water.However, although these seaplanes are very inflexible, with a small combat radius and low ammunition load, they are the absolute masters on the battlefield of Temasek Island today!

Because the only field anti-aircraft weapon owned by the British-Indian Army Field Corps stationed on Temasek Island is the anti-aircraft gun used to hit airships, and there are not many of them, only one squadron.It's okay to use this thing to hit airships. Airships fly slowly and are big, as long as they fly low by a dozen, they will be accurate.The anti-aircraft gun has a large caliber and can be equipped with "explosives", which can easily ignite the hydrogen in the airship, so the effect of hitting the airship is much better than ordinary machine guns.

But it’s too much to use this thing to shoot a plane. Even when Ssangyong dives at a small angle on the water, the speed can be increased to more than 200 kilometers per hour. At this speed, it’s not as effective as a rifle with a gun and a bolt. !At least the rifle is small and fast, and the muzzle of the gun can't keep up with the plane at all.

Therefore, the field air defense of the British and Indian troops is basically a decoration against the planes, and they can only stand up to the bombing!
To make matters worse, the heavy artillery of the current British and Indian troops will move their positions before firing two shots.The thinking of the artillery of the British and Indian Army still stays in the Napoleonic War era in this timeline. Small-caliber infantry artillery and cavalry artillery can be pulled around by horses. The medium-caliber artillery of the 100mm level can still move for half an hour, while the cannons of the 150mm level and above will not move after being opened.Because these artillery are not only heavy, it is troublesome to move, and the range is usually relatively long, and they are usually placed behind woods or hills, so they are not easy to be seen by the artillery observers on the enemy's observation balloons, and the possibility of being fired back Very small - there is no artillery radar these days. If the enemy's artillery is beyond the distance that the observers of one's side can visually detect, the opponent's position can only be calculated by "acoustic measurement".However, the equipment and calculation formula of the sound test are still relatively rudimentary, so the error is very large, and it will not work if it is farther away.

But when the Ming army had a "monitor and strike integrated manned machine", it would be a dimensionality reduction blow!
As soon as the artillerymen of the British and Indian Army opened fire, the co-pilot on the Ssangyong plane of the Ming Army could see the smoke and flames.After finding the target, it was bombing and strafing.

It's not a round, but a round of shore-based bombing first, and a round of carrier-based bombing later!
But it's not over yet!

Just as these biplanes dropped the bombs, emptied the bullets of the front machine guns, and flew away with their wings shaking, the airship that was originally at an altitude of 3000 meters began to lower its altitude and came down to "fill up the guns".What they dropped was not ordinary bombs, but terrible napalm bombs!
Dozens of Flying Dragon [-] airships had already quietly flown over Temasek Island.But there was no rush to take action, but patiently waited for the Ssangyong plane to find the target, complete the bombing and strafing, and then carefully descend, throwing the napalm bomb on the place where the Ssangyong plane had bombed.

Now, the six heavy artillery positions of the British and Indian Army are completely over!

Two rounds of bombing, strafing and another round of napalm, this is no longer nailing the coffin, but cremation directly.

The artillery and ammunition that had not exploded before were also destroyed by the explosion and fire caused by the napalm bomb. Even the artillery who had just dropped the cannon and lay down in the side bomb shelter in order to avoid bombs and bullets was suddenly killed. What a tragedy it was to be burned alive by the falling fire from heaven!
On Bukit Timah Hill, Viscount Beresford witnessed the scene of his heavy artillery being cremated. He was so surprised that he couldn't speak. This battle can still be fought like this!
At this moment, three red flares suddenly rose into the sky from behind the tomorrow-Japan coalition positions, hung high in the sky, and slowly fell.

The bombardment of the Ming army's heavy artillery came to an abrupt end!

Under this sky, countless Ming and Japanese military officers jumped out of the trenches, raised their command flags and sabers, and shouted orders in different languages.

"Brothers, follow me!"

"Give it to me."

The 80mm and 120mm mortars on the mortar positions behind the trenches started to fire almost at the same time, dropping shells at the fastest speed to the defense line of the British and Indian troops stationed on the other side of the strait, once again turning the British and Indian troops into positions. Made a sea of ​​fire.

Then, waves of green and black people poured out of the trenches and headed towards the beach on the north shore of the Johor Strait, where assault boats and rubber boats had long been placed. The battle to cross the Johor Strait finally began.

This was an attack that used nine infantry battalions of the Ming army and four devil brigades. Among them, the nine battalions of the Ming army were used to divert the attack and attract the firepower and attention of the defenders, while the four battalions under the Japanese Northern Independent Brigade The brigade is the main force of the attack.And their main attack direction is the area around Woodlands Beach in the middle section of the British-Indian defense line, which is also the narrowest place in the entire strait.And a pontoon battalion of the Ming army has also moved into place.Once a breakthrough is formed ahead, they will immediately follow up with the bridge building, and within an hour, they will be able to complete a pontoon bridge across the strait.

As long as the bridge is erected, the troops of the Ming army and the devils will be able to rush to Temasek Island like a tide!
"Hurry up, help the untouchables, put up your rifles and machine guns!"

"You bastards, what are you doing slowly? Get up."

"No one is allowed to retreat, and whoever retreats will be shot"

On the British-Indian army positions on the south bank of the Johor Strait, white-skinned officers had already emerged from the safest anti-gun holes, yelling and urging the "Indian warriors" who were huddled in the trenches to take up weapons and go into battle.Seeing the slow-moving Indian, he went up and gave him two whips without hesitation.

This kind of bad attitude is not because the Indian Ah San in the trenches is not active, but a habit developed by leading troops for many years. The attitude of British officers has always been bad. Only Rakshasa officers can compare with them on this point. .Even the samurai officers in Japan are kinder than them when they treat their subordinates (subordinates are also samurai). This is because the British have long practiced a military recruitment system. The recruited soldiers are either drunkards, villains or tramps. Basically, there are no good people. Officers If you are not evil, you will not be able to suppress it at all.

When these British officers arrived in India, they were naturally even more vicious!

The drunkards, thugs, and vagabonds in Britain are at least human beings, but Indians are not human beings at all in their eyes!
Under the intimidation of these British officers, the Indians who survived the shelling of the Ming army had no complaints, and no one dared to escape. They all set up their rifles and machine guns weakly, and lay in the trenches against the falling mortar shells. up, looking as if ready to fight.

Seeing that the Indian Ah San below finally did not escape, the British officers were all relieved.At this moment, the first batch of Japanese devils had already approached the beachhead of the Woodlands Strait in assault boats and rubber boats.

"Aim. Fire!"

The British officers gave the order to fire, and there was a burst of gunfire in their positions, and the bullets rained down on the heads of the enemies ahead. But it seemed that nothing was hit!Those assault boats and rubber boats quickly approached the beach.

The British officer commanding next to him was a little anxious and couldn't shoot well!
Just when these white-skinned officers were anxious about the marksmanship of the subordinates, the assault boats and rubber boats of the Japanese devils had crossed the strait with the bullets that the Indian Ah San might have headed.Then I saw a bunch of smoke bombs thrown from the assault boat and the rubber boat. Under the cover of the smoke, the ghost soldiers on the assault boat and the rubber boat rushed down with shouts.

Woodlands Beach has been bombarded by the artillery of the Ming army for an hour, and the landmines, Juma, and Luzhai are almost cleared, only some landmines are still being stepped on from time to time.But this can't stop the devil's charge at all!

And the barbed wire stretched in front of the seawall didn't stop them for too long.In less than a quarter of an hour, the Japanese soldiers wearing black military uniforms and black hats these days had already begun to charge the embankment.

"Go on the bayonet!"

"Prepare for hand-to-hand combat!"

"Hurry up"

All the white-skinned officers on the British-Indian army's position were screaming anxiously, but the Indian soldiers under them were in no hurry.
Seeing that the Japanese devils had rushed up, the white-skinned officers shouted again: "Don't back up, don't back up!"

This time the Indian Asan was obedient, indeed no one retreated, they just raised their hands high
