    After the explosion, it took a long time before the little Japanese colonel came to his senses. The explosion just now almost stunned the little Japanese colonel.

    The little Japanese colonel, who came back to his senses, looked worriedly at the cracked shell-proof hole, and thought to himself, the aerial bombs of the Chinese ** team are actually so powerful. The top of the bomb hole is several meters thick, and the top of the hole is also thick.  The cement was reinforced, but unexpectedly it also cracked.

    "I hope no more bombs will fall in the same place," the little Japanese colonel thought, but the chance of two consecutive bombs falling in the same pit on the battlefield is very small.

    This group of little devils were very unlucky. A few minutes later, another 200 kilogram aerial bomb fell on the same place. It exploded on the top of the anti-blast hole with a loud "boom".  The bomb-proof hole was blown down, and the little Japs inside were either killed or buried alive, including the little Jaap Colonel. The regiment headquarters was completely wiped out.

    Ten minutes after the bombing, the entire huge position was in a miserable state. It was completely different from before the bombing.

    Looking at the entire position, there is smoke everywhere, big pits everywhere, and explosions happening everywhere. Bunkers, trenches, and fortifications have been completely destroyed.

    Thirty or forty minutes later, when all the "Super Sky Fortresses" had dropped all the heavy bombs they carried, the entire position was completely unrecognizable, and it was almost impossible to see any living Japs.

    It is said that more than an hour after these "super flying fortresses" left, a large group of little devils entered the battlefield to treat the wounded.  Repair the position.

    However, many of these little devils who entered the battlefield vomited when they first entered. The entire position was littered with broken limbs, bloodstains, viscera, minced meat, and even blown heads.  There was hardly a complete body.

    Chinese Air Force aircraft, Mustang fighters and "Super Air Fortress" bombers.  Fierce bombing was carried out on the Japanese positions within a radius of nearly 100 kilometers near Mandalay. The bombing lasted for two full days.

    The piles of bombs at several major airports were basically gone after two days, and they were all dropped on the Japs¡¯ positions. In the past two days, the Japs suffered heavy casualties. According to the statistics of the Japanese army in Myanmar, 100,000 Japanese soldiers died in these two days.  There are nearly 100,000 Japs under Chinese planes.

    And China¡¯s statistics are.  In the past two days, more than 3,000 aircraft took off and landed.  Nearly 5,000 tons of bombs were dropped on the Japs' positions.

    Now, the heavy aerial bombs at several major airports have been almost exhausted. If the Japanese army has reconnaissance planes, they will find that on the Burma Highway from China to Lashio, large transport convoys are like long queues. These large trucks  Materials, especially heavy aerial bombs, are being transported to Myanmar.

    The Japanese army in Burma.

    Facing such a large scale of the Chinese army.  The high-density and fierce bombing left no one able to fight back. Not only did the Japanese army suffer heavy casualties, but the morale of the Japanese army was also severely damaged.

    Now, the huge Japanese army has been forced to shift to strategic defense. The more than 400,000 Japanese troops have begun to defend against the more than 200,000 Chinese troops.  The Japanese army is no longer as confident as it was a few days ago, believing that its military strength is absolutely superior and that it is sure to win.

    The third day the battle officially started.

    The first two days were a large-scale bombing campaign by the Chinese Air Force. The five major attacking armies were put on hold and did not conduct a ground attack on the surface.  But these two days, these large armies were not idle, but were also making various preparations.

    After the bombing, starting today, thousands of heavy artillery pieces from the five major armies will bombard the Japs, opening the way with heavy artillery and knocking open the Japs¡¯ huge defense line.

    Starting at eight o'clock in the morning, thousands of heavy artillery pieces formed at least a dozen heavy artillery groups, at least all of which were based on artillery regiments. Some even used two or three artillery regiments together. A large number of cannons were launched at the little Japanese.  The fierce bombardment was like a tsunami.

    This is the offensive front of the 1st Army.

    The three major artillery regiments of the First Group Army are all equipped with 105mm self-propelled howitzers. They move quickly and enter and leave the position quickly. In addition, there is a heavy artillery brigade. The heavy artillery brigade has two 155mm howitzer regiments, each regiment is equipped with 36 155mm howitzers.  In addition to heavy artillery, the heavy artillery brigade also has a rocket launcher regiment equipped with dozens of rocket launchers.

    At this time, a 105mm self-propelled howitzer regiment, under the cover of the soldiers, had moved to a position in Xiaojiazi, which was less than five kilometers away from Xiaojiazi's position. The soldiers of this covering infantry regiment and Xiaojiazi  The Japs were facing each other, less than two or three kilometers away.

    There are a total of more than 500,000 Japs. It is impossible for every position to be bombed by planes. Only some large positions and some important positions were bombed. Although nearly half of the Japs were affected,Many little Japs have not been bombed in the past two days.

    The Japs position in the distance had not been bombed. The Japs on the position thought that the soldiers on the opposite side were preparing to launch a ground attack, so they all entered their positions and prepared for battle.

    "The little devils don't know that a self-propelled howitzer regiment and dozens of 105mm howitzers are already preparing to bombard the little devils.

    The massive roaring sound came very suddenly. The more than a thousand little Japanese who entered the position never thought that dozens of 105mm howitzers would fire at their position.

    "Baga! Heavy artillery group!"

    As soon as he heard the sharp whistling sound of a large area, a little Japanese lieutenant colonel knew that he had been fooled. The Chinese troops on the opposite side were not attacking their own positions, but attracting their attention so that the heavy artillery group could bombard them.

    be cheated!

    However, even if they knew they had been fooled, it was too late. A large number of artillery shells hit this small defensive position overwhelmingly. In the position of a field infantry brigade with more than a thousand people, the 1st Army actually sent an infantry regiment.  , a heavy artillery regiment is considered a sufficient investment.

    Dozens of artillery shells exploded on the Jaap's position, and many Japs were blown away. The power of the 105mm howitzer was not small. A shell would leave a big hole, although it was not as big as a 200-kilogram heavy aviation bomb.  It's scary, but it's definitely enough for the little devils to endure.

    "Boom, boom, boom"

    Intensive explosions came one after another, the entire Jaap position was filled with gunfire and gunfire.

    far away.

    A large number of soldiers were watching the shelling from a distance with great interest. Some company and platoon leaders and other officers even picked up their own telescopes and watched with gusto.

    ??Everyone can see the situation clearly through the telescope. The shells exploded on the Jaap position one after another. The splashing soil and the bodies of the Jaap flying with the air waves can be seen very clearly.

    "Okay! Great! It's so enjoyable!"

    Many commanders saw the wonderful things and cheered happily. Even those soldiers who did not have telescopes could see the general picture, and everyone cheered from time to time.

    The shelling was very intensive. The position of this field infantry brigade of more than a thousand people was full of artillery shells. Many little devils basically had no place to hide.

    Ten minutes later, the shelling ended, and the entire position was in a mess, with corpses and weapons scattered all over the ground.

    "Comrades! Go ahead!!!"

    After the bombardment ended, nearly two thousand soldiers from this regiment, holding AK-47 assault rifles and shouting, effortlessly rushed to the enemy's position on the opposite side.

    Not far away, there is a position of the Japs. These Japs originally planned to come over for reinforcements. However, the soldiers moved too fast. The Japs had no time to reinforce, and the soldiers completely occupied the position of the Japs.  .

    After the bombardment, most of the more than a thousand Japs were dead and injured, and those who survived were mostly injured. There were probably less than one or two hundred intact Japs. Such a small number of Japs were defeated, facing nearly two thousand powerful ones.  Soldiers, the result can be imagined.

    Now, there was the roar of artillery everywhere, and a large number of heavy artillery groups were shelling the little devils one after another. The heavy artillery opened the way, and the soldiers broke through the little devils' positions one by one.

    ******

    This is a large-scale position for the little devils.

    Looking at the scale, there is at least one regiment of Japs on the position, which means there are more than 3,000 Japs stationed there.

    This position is close to the Burma Highway, and the Japs have heavy troops stationed there. However, it was heavily bombed two days ago. Although the Japs rushed to repair it, traces of the bombing can still be seen.

    On the battlefield.

    A little Japanese colonel was holding a telescope and looking at a large number of soldiers more than a thousand meters away. They were soldiers from two entire infantry regiments. A large number of soldiers were ready to attack. The densely packed soldiers  They formed a large area, forming an offensive front with a width of two or three kilometers.

    Seeing so many soldiers, the little Japanese colonel had a serious expression and looked at them with a telescope for a long time.

    "Your Excellency, Captain! The Chinese team is preparing for a large-scale attack."

    A young Japanese major next to him also observed for a while. Seeing so many Chinese soldiers, the young Japanese major's tone was obviously full of worry.

    On the other hand, another little Japanese officer next to him held up his binoculars and looked at it for a while, then said disapprovingly: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander! The attacking squadron is all infantry, and there are no tanks. We are very confident in this defensive battle."  repel the advance??'s squadron.  "

    Hearing this, the little Japanese colonel also softened his expression slightly. The little Japanese colonel was most worried about the chariot troops of the Chinese Army. If a large number of chariots appeared, his position would be in danger.

    However, no chariot troops were seen, and the little Japanese Colonel also knew that there should be no chariot troops from the Chinese Army. This area is full of hills, which is not suitable for the deployment and attack of chariot troops.

    Thinking of this, the little devil commander quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

    "These little devils don't know that a huge danger is approaching.
