Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 1669 The Air Defense Battle of Vung Tau
On April 4, the Central South Campaign finally started.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the place where the first battle broke out was not Poipet, where the cadet army was stationed with heavy troops, but Anna Zhaneng, which is nearly [-] kilometers away from Poipet.Moreover, the active offensive party was not the Thai army and the Japanese army, but an independent brigade under the so-called "Laos National Independence Army" affiliated to the French-study coalition camp.

Three hours before the start of the battle at Anna Zhaneng Mansion, the First Division of the Japanese Marine Corps and one division of the Thai Army had just completed their offensive preparations in Chachoengsao. The Thai cabinet received a telegram signed by Ouyang Yun.In the telegram, Ouyang Yun warned the Kingdom of Thailand to stop all hostile acts that are accomplices to tigers, and ordered it to gather its troops within [-] kilometers of the border within three hours, otherwise all consequences will be at its own risk.

Because it was an ultimatum telegram, Lieutenant General Masuda Tomikawa, commander of the Japanese Marine Corps First Army, commander of the Japanese-Thai joint force, smiled at the Thai army liaison officer after receiving it: "The learning soldiers are poor in skills, and they are not even threatened by the ranks." All the intimidation methods have been used, he gave birth to the king, you Thais were not scared, right?"

He smiled apologetically and said, "Of course, we're not even afraid of the British and French, but a mere Chinese warlord?" But he thought in his heart, "It's not that the student soldiers are out of their wits, we are all suppressed to the point of failure now." The area around Beiliu is here, this battle is really not optimistic!"

It was only three hours after he finished speaking, and three Japanese bombers and one Japanese fighter jet had just taken off from the Bangkok military airport, and there was intense gunfire at the border between Anacharnen and Laos.Soon, they received a call from Bangkok, saying that the cadet army had launched an attack in Anacharon, and a regiment of the Royal Thai Defense Forces stationed there was defeated and has now retreated, asking them to launch an attack immediately.

"Bage, is the Xuebing Army going first?" Masuda frowned and shouted.

He said, "Your Excellency, what shall we do?"

"No hurry, let's follow the established steps."

The so-called "Laos National Independence Army" is the most immature "National Independence Army" among the three kingdom governments of the Indochina Federation. To the outside world, it claims to have two divisions and one independent brigade, with a total strength of 3000.

There is a reason why Ouyang Yun asked the Laotians to attack first. Laos and Thailand have long-standing historical grievances, and the terrain in the area around Anacharneng Province is very complicated, which is very suitable for harassment operations by small groups of troops.

"The purpose of this battle is to annihilate the little devils. First, beat the Thais. Britain and France contain each other and fatten the courage of the Thais. Let's weigh him today!" From Jungle Special Warfare The frontline reconnaissance team of the brigade detected large-scale military mobilizations of the Japanese and Thai troops, and discovered that Japanese reconnaissance planes began to frequently rebel against the southeast coast of Vietnam. Ouyang Yun estimated that the Japanese offensive would start nearby. The generals ordered so.

In Ouyang Yun's battle plan, the Xuebing Army and the "National Independence Liberation Army" under its control will be responsible for the land defense of Laos and Cambodia, while the French army will be responsible for coastal defense with the help of Huang Haifu's First Mountain Division.Ouyang Yun wrote in a telegram to Ang Bosi: "The governor wants to restore the country, and his ambition is admirable. However, a strong army needs to be smelted with blood. I heard that the commander of the regiment said that your army has already Reincarnated and exchanged shares, then please regard this battle as the first battle of the National Restoration Army? If the base area cannot be kept? How can we talk about the restoration of the country?"

When the Bangkok military airport began to fly fighter planes in batches, about [-] kilometers away from the coast of Vung Tau, Vietnam, the aircraft carrier "Chongying" of the Japanese and Western Expeditionary Fleet also began to fly fighter planes. Soon, about [-] mixed aircraft The fighter jet group flew towards Vung Tau City, and within a quarter of an hour, they flew over the coastal defense line of Vung Tau City, and the Japanese planes that took off from Bangkok Airport first started bombing and ground attack.

The shrill siren sounded, and on the coast defense line, a regiment of French troops and a regiment of cadets hid in the air defense fortifications. At the same time, dozens of air defense firepower points began to fight back violently.

Vung Tau is very close to Di Shi, because Di Shi is stationed with Chu Tiange's troops, the French are not very willing to come here from Hanoi.On Bosi's reason is also sufficient. What if the Japanese landed in eastern Vietnam by detour?I only have the main force of three divisions in total, and it is impossible to defend all the coastlines of Vietnam in every aspect.Ouyang Yun blocked him with one sentence: "If that's the case, I will send an air force from Chongzuo to rescue him!"

This wave of Japanese bombing lasted about 10 minutes.In the 10-minute battle, the French army lost about two platoons of troops, but they also achieved the result of shooting down an enemy plane.

The French army that came to aid Vung Tau consisted of one brigade, which was the largest brigade that Ang Boss could send out.The French are still worried about being used as cannon fodder by the cadet army, so although those brigade commanders slapped their chests loudly during the meeting, claiming to sacrifice their last drop of blood to keep the largest French colony, they were really called and asked to go to Vung Tau When they were on the front line, they had their own high-sounding reasons for not being able to go, and the most absurd thing was that one of the brigade commander’s excuses was that his lover was about to give birth to a child, and as a father, he had to let him see himself when the child came to this world .

Xiang Shaoyun was present at the meeting, so he couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up and said to a brigade commander who was sitting in a corner and said nothing: "Emmons, you go on the brigade, I will support you in the teaching of a small team. group!"

There are strong men in any army, and Emmons can be regarded as the number one fierce general under Umbers' command.Emboss didn't mention his name all the time, in fact, he was protecting him from the hands of the Xue Bingjun.Emmons was not afraid to go to the front line. He stood up and saluted Umbers, "Your Excellency, let's go on the journey!"

War certainly kills, and for men, war also gives them pleasure.

The battle just now can be called the first battle of the Emmons Brigade. Although the casualties were not small, the result of shooting down a Japanese plane was achieved. The French were ecstatic, and many people took off their hats and cheered, as if they had won a big victory of.

Xiang Shaoyun assigned Emmons to the teaching team, and the team leader was Cao Bixiao.The enemy plane was far away from their sight. Hearing the cheers of the French, he said to Emmons: "Commander Emmons, listening to the cheers of the soldiers under his command, how do you feel?"

"There is excitement, but also a little shame," Emmons replied after thinking about it.

Cao Bixiao was puzzled: "Ashamed?"

Emmons pointed to the defense line of the student army next to him.

The first mountain division came to aid the same brigade-level organization, and now it is also a regiment sticking to the front line.They only killed more than a dozen people in this round of bombing, but shot down three enemy planes.Seeing those students squatting silently behind the fortifications except for those who rescued the wounded, Emmons felt a huge gap, which made him feel ashamed.

Cao Bixiao smiled, and he said: "It takes time for an army to grow, don't worry, if you fight too many battles, you will notice the changes in the army!"

"I look forward to this day!"

"I am also looking forward to it, after all, we have paid for it before."

"I understand, Cao, no matter what other people think, I really appreciate you - I feel your kindness!"

"Really? It is our greatest comfort that you can think so. Well, tell the soldiers to shut up, it is important to be solemn in battle—"

"understood!"
