    Facing the ground attack of the Chinese Army, what the Burmese Japanese army feared most was the tank group, especially the large-scale tank group. The Burmese Japanese army lacked anti-tank weapons, and there were only a few 37mm combat anti-tank guns. Moreover, no  Everyone in the Japanese army knows that the 37mm anti-tank gun appears to be seriously lacking in power in front of Chinese tanks.

    There were no tanks, not to mention tanks, not even an armored vehicle. The captain of the Little Japanese Army felt relieved, and his solemn expression immediately relaxed.

    They are on the defensive, and there are a large number of fortifications. Although these fortifications were only temporarily rebuilt in a hurry, facing a light infantry, the little devils felt that they could completely hold it.

    There were many little Japs on the entire position, a whole field infantry regiment. The little Japs Colonel put down his binoculars and let out a long sigh of relief.

    "Your Majesty Colonel! If the Chinese ** team on the opposite side dares to launch a large-scale attack, we will definitely hit them hard." Next to him, a young Japanese Major was obviously confident. Before the soldiers started attacking, the young Japanese Major's confidence was unprecedentedly high.  .

    However, the large number of soldiers on the opposite side had no intention of attacking at this time. The soldiers were waiting for the rocket artillery regiment of the heavy artillery brigade to fire.

    The rocket launcher regiment is about five or six kilometers away from the Jaap¡¯s position, separated by several hills. Now, the soldiers of the rocket launcher regiment are ready for battle.

    The rocket launcher vehicles were parked neatly. The rocket launcher tubes on the vehicles were pointing diagonally at the Japs¡¯ position in the distance. Each rocket launcher vehicle had a 40-tube 200mm caliber launcher.

    Seeing that the soldiers are ready, even the parameters have been calibrated repeatedly.  Everything was correct. The leader of the rocket artillery regiment looked at his watch and saw that the time was up. He immediately shouted: "Get ready to launch! Countdown begins."

    "10, 9, 8,, 7 launch!"

    With an order, dozens of rocket launchers began to fire at the same time, and a large number of rockets roared out, making large sharp explosions.  The continuous whistling sound was extremely spectacular.

    In the distance, the Japanese military position.

    Many little devils heard the sharp whistling sound and saw a large number of rockets flying in the sky. Seeing such a scene, many little devils trembled in their hearts.

    Even the captain of the Little Japanese Colonel also saw this large area of ??rockets. Seeing so many rockets flying towards his position, the Little Japanese Colonel felt nervous, although he didn't know what they were.  However, the little devil Colonel felt.  This is definitely something very powerful.

    Soon, before the little devils had time to react, a large number of rockets rained down on the ground, leaving no blind spots on the little devils' positions and causing carpet-like explosions.

    Dozens of rocket launchers fired at least two thousand 200mm-caliber rockets in just one or two minutes. Such rockets are as powerful as 155mm howitzers.

    "Boom, boom, boom"

    The explosions were very dense and spectacular, covering the entire little devil's position.  Almost everything was covered, with mud flying all over the sky and gunpowder smoke filling the air.

    Opposite, not far from the Jaap position.

    A large number of soldiers were shocked when they saw such a spectacular bombardment. Two or three thousand rockets all hit the Jaap's position in a short period of time.  There were thunderous cheers.

    The soldiers rarely saw such a spectacular scene. At first, everyone was a little shocked, but when they saw the little devil on the opposite side, they were reduced to ashes.  The soldiers cheered immediately.

    Soon, the rocket launcher was completed, and the spectacular scene came to an abrupt end. The little Japanese position opposite was silent, which was completely opposite to the constant earth-shattering explosions just now.

    The soldiers who were preparing to attack were stunned for a moment, then immediately shouted and began to charge into the Japs' position on a large scale with their AK-47 assault rifles.

    The soldiers encountered little resistance!

    More than three thousand little Japs were suddenly hit by such a violent blow. Even if there were some remaining Japs, these Japs would never adapt quickly. With such a dense explosion, these Japs who were not killed would definitely be killed at this time.  feel dizzy.

    What's more, most of the remaining Japs were injured, many of them seriously. Under the intensive attack just now, more than half of the Japs were injured.

    A large number of soldiers rushed to the Japs' position. Immediately, the firing of AK-47 assault rifles began one after another, and the soldiers began to clear the remaining Japs on the position.

    Many soldiers, after finishing a magazine, took advantage of the gap between changing magazines to take a look at the position.

    The large pits on the position were densely packed, one after another. Obviously, the impact points of the rocket launcher shells were not far from each other. On the position, a large number of corpses of little Japanese were scattered everywhere.Eighteen, a large number of scattered weapons can be seen everywhere.

    An hour later, the Japanese field infantry regiment was completely destroyed, and the soldiers successfully broke through the Japanese defensive position.

    ******

    Today, five group armies participated in the attack, the 1st Group Army, the 2nd Group Army, the 13th Group Army, the 15th Group Army, the 28th Group Army, and the five major armies, clearing the way with heavy artillery, marching hand in hand, and launched attacks on the Japanese defense line.

    Under the fierce attack of thousands of heavy artillery, the five major armies advanced smoothly. On that day, the soldiers advanced more than 30 kilometers and wiped out nearly 100,000 enemies.

    Under the bombardment of so many heavy artillery, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties. At this time, the number of Japanese troops near Mandalay had dropped sharply from the previous 500,000 to more than 300,000.

    On the Burma Highway, a large number of tanks are advancing with all their strength towards the city of Mandalay. This is a tank regiment of the 2nd Army, with more than a hundred tanks and dozens of armored vehicles, majestic.

    Beside the highway, several reporters were holding cameras and taking pictures of this spectacular group of tanks. These were several war reporters and reporters accompanying the army. Among these reporters, there was also a blond reporter.

    This is a Polish journalist named Mike who came to China a year ago and works for a large Chinese newspaper. Every day, several major domestic media will report on the war situation in Southeast Asia in a timely manner.

    Although Mike has been in China for more than a year and has settled down with his family in China, he has been increasingly shocked in the past few days on the battlefield in Myanmar.

    In the past, in the European battlefield, Mike also worked as a war reporter, traveling on the front lines and witnessing the battles between the Allies and the Germans. However, seeing so many tanks today, it felt like he had returned to the European battlefield.

    If he hadn't seen these tanks spray-painted with camouflage paint, and from time to time he could see yellow faces peeking out from the top of the tanks, including Chinese soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms, Mike would have definitely thought he was in a European battlefield filled with artillery fire.  .

    China is surprising itself more and more, Mike thought to himself. Yesterday, he witnessed a huge heavy artillery group, which wiped out thousands of Japanese troops in an hour. Today, he saw so many tanks again.

    As a war correspondent, Mike still had some common sense. Looking at the thick main gun barrels of these tanks and the fact that each tank was walking smoothly on the bumpy Yunnan-Burma Highway, Mike knew that the performance of these tanks would be different.  It will be worse, at least similar to the tanks currently in service in the German Army, and may even be better than the tanks currently in service in the US Army.

    Mike held up the camera and kept taking pictures, hoping that the heroic appearance of these tanks would be published as soon as possible.

    ******

    Yangon, the highest headquarters of the Japanese army in Myanmar.

    General Takasu Shiro, the supreme commander of the Japanese army in Myanmar, is furious. In just three days, his troops have lost nearly 200,000 troops, and his numerical advantage is quickly disappearing.

    Next to them, a group of senior Japanese officers were hanging their heads and not daring to show their anger. The faces of these Japanese officers were also very ugly. The battle in the past few days was a complete failure.

    After venting his anger, Takasu Shiro felt a little better, but his face was still so gloomy that he could almost cry out.

    Seeing that Shiro Takasu had finished venting his anger, a young Japanese Lieutenant General bravely said: "Your Excellency, Commander! We might as well abandon Mandalay, disperse our troops into the mountains and forests, and deal with the attacking squadron."

    Hearing this, Takasu Shiro immediately knew that this lieutenant general meant to fight guerrilla warfare with the Chinese Army, abandon major cities, retreat to the mountains, forests and rural areas, and deal with the Chinese Army.

    However, Takasu Shiro immediately waved his hand and rejected the proposal. If it really reduces to the level of guerrilla warfare, then where will the face of the entire Japanese army in Myanmar be? Although the current Japanese army cannot be compared with a few years ago, but  It is absolutely impossible for them to hide and fight guerrilla warfare.

    Seeing that his proposal was rejected, the little Japanese lieutenant general also looked helpless.

    At this time, a little Japanese colonel shouted a report and came in. He stood at attention and saluted, and reported to Takasu Shiro: "Your Excellency, Commander, the latest information is that the Chinese navy has appeared in the southeastern coast of Yangon."

    Yangon is not far from the coast. The Chinese navy appeared in Mawlamyine some time ago, and now it has appeared in the southeastern coast of Yangon, China.

    After hearing the report, many little Japanese officers thought in their hearts, is the Chinese Communist Party preparing to land in the southeast of Yangon to attack Yangon?

    Hearing such a report, Takasu Shiro's face became a little more ugly. He thought to himself that some time ago, the Chinese ** team landed in Moulmein, and he sent a lot of troops to stop it. Now, if the Chinese ** team landed in Moulmein, now, if the Chinese  If the Japanese troops land in the southeast of Yangon, they will not have much strength to fight against them.

      The main force of the Japanese army in Myanmar is basically near Mandalay. In addition, there are nearly 100,000 Japanese troops blocking the Chinese *** team near Tonggu. The Chinese *** team that landed from Mawlamyine some time ago successfully occupied Mawlamyine.  After Tamian, at present, the attack on Tonggu is underway.

    Thinking that his troops were empty, Takasu Shiro collapsed on his chair weakly.
