GBP Chapter 720 Retreat
Chapter 720 Retreat
The battle lasted for half an hour and it could be said to be a one-sided massacre. Lin Chuan once thought that as long as they surrendered with both hands, he could give them a chance to mine to death. However, this group of Japs were determined not to live, or perhaps they just didn't want to die and be beheaded. When the machine guns at the front line of the First Army started smoking, they did not take the opportunity to charge, but waited for another batch of machine guns to be brought up from the front.
The battle was over, and Shi Wei came over with a general from the Corrupt Country. As soon as General Shi Wei expressed his gratitude, the general from the Corrupt Country could not wait to say:
"Expeditionary Corps, please clear your defense line. Our Royal Army will quickly move south to Rangoon and head to the seaside to meet up with the Royal Navy."
Lin Chuan ignored this arrogant guy and looked at General Shi Wei.
"General, part of our army is currently encircling the Japanese troops in the coastal cities. Give us three days and we will naturally retreat, but we will never hand over the rear of our attack sequence to an untrustworthy army. If anyone dares to test the law, I will let him stay with the Japanese devils underground."
General Shi Wei had a headache.
"Is this what Captain Cold Gun meant?"
"This is what I mean. I am not subject to orders from the enemy when I am abroad. I am responsible for the safety of my soldiers. You can tell the corrupt people. If you don't believe it, you can try it. We have been coveting their equipment for a long time."
After Lin Chuan left, the British general naturally understood Chinese. He was very angry and felt like he was about to explode.
"General Shi Wei, I will sue them, and if Chongqing does not punish them, I will cut off their aid."
Shi Wei was angry, what a fool, a fool even dumber than the Japanese.
"Mr. Edward, I solemnly warn you first, they are a team of cold guns. If you don't know about cold guns, I suggest you check the newspaper. In addition, I think they are right. If it were me, I would not leave my back to someone I don't trust. Finally, because of them, you recovered the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Towers at least one year earlier. They are penniless, and the barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes. Maybe they just want some supplies and rice. If you really provoke them, your 10,000 troops and 20,000 vassal troops will be a joke in their eyes. Believe it or not, it's up to you. I have things to do."
General Edward was stunned. This was the first time he saw General Shi Wei angry. He was still cursing because of face issues, but if they were really asked to break through to the south alone, he really didn't have the courage. Do he still need to check the newspaper? Who doesn't know that the cold gun is called the devil?
It took the Second Army only a few hours to clear out the Japanese troops in the coastal cities. Although the special forces had infiltrated the cities to protect the supplies, no Japanese had any intention of burning the supplies. After the various sequences of the Second Army began shelling, they waved the white flag and then tied their hands and left the defensive positions in groups.
Wang Hanqiang almost lost his mind. With all the supplies and equipment, there was really no reason to kill them if they surrendered. Well, be merciful and take them back with the supplies to work as miners. After all, it would be a bit unethical to use one's own people for that.
Dozens of merchant ships and four warships took two days and three nights to clear out the supplies and equipment. The planes at Papen Airport were transferred. In addition to their own belongings, several ace pilots each received twenty large yellow croakers and were escorted by the First Army Special Warfare Division to find Shi Wei. The group of people were very grateful and did not talk about the issue of sniper shootings if possible, and what they did talk about were all trivial matters.
Three days later, the entire coastal city south of Yangon became almost a deserted town. Not only were all the supplies moved out, but many natives also left. They could develop in any coastal city across the street, build fields and houses, and there would be no taxation for three years. Upon learning that the Japanese had been completely wiped out and that the brutal and corrupt Chinese were ruling again, the native soldiers and civilians avoided them and scrambled to board the transport ships.
The Second and Third Armies began to retreat. They did not leave with the warships and merchant ships, but entered the Malay Peninsula through the Mottama Bay, and set up a defense line at the waist between Satun Province and Songkhla Province, resisting all foreign enemies in the name of the Holy Lance Corps.
Three days later, the British army advanced to the area of Sadoun Province. The Japanese did not dare to show their heads when they were there, and they all withdrew. They were now capable of occupying the Garden City and regaining control of the Strait of Malacca. However, they were somewhat inadequate in the face of unknown armed forces. They launched an attack without effective communication and fled in panic after a round of artillery fire from the Second Army.
Edward was furious when he heard the news. He vowed to take revenge on the Holy Lance and called on the Allied Powers to impose sanctions on the Holy Lance. However, his appeal was of the utmost importance and no one responded. Only the Windmill Government in exile in the United Kingdom expressed its support in order to take back the island of Sumatra occupied by the Holy Lance.
The Eagle Sauce did not make any move, and the British Country had no good solution. Edward's warships in India were attacked and bombed into the deep sea by submarines that came from nowhere. It was unknown when warships could be mobilized from the country. The key point was that the road was not peaceful. The submarines of the Hans Country were like chicken blood, wandering around the world carrying out sneak attacks. Not only the British Country, but also the warships and cargo ships of the Eagle Sauce and the Russian Bear were seriously threatened.
Chen Feng had no intention of giving up the Strait, which was the vital throat connecting the East and the West. If he could hold on to this place, he would have a promising future. However, it was hard to say what would happen after the war. It was not enough to rely solely on the current military strength, and he had to speed up the development of military industry.
In February, the Chinese Expeditionary Force had returned home. Shi Wei commanded the British coalition forces and the Indian vassal army to leave the Mon Plateau and launch a surprise attack on the Elephant Kingdom, intending to use the Elephant Kingdom as a base to continue eastward to attack the Japanese troops in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.
However, as soon as the joint forces crossed the plateau, they were hit head-on by the Japanese army. Half of the Iraqi infantry division was crippled in two hours. Except for a small part that retreated to the Mon Plateau, the rest were either killed or captured. Of the more than 20,000 Indian puppet troops, 3,000 were killed, 5,000 escaped, and the rest all became prisoners of the Japanese army and joined the army that mined rubber plantations. The Iraqi army became famous in one battle and created the first tragedy of the Allied Powers since the counterattack in the South Seas.
In Holy Spear City, Chen Feng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after receiving Shi Wei's report on the war situation. Proud Chinese people! Do they really think they can do it? They don't even look at who conquered the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Towers.
"Captain, do you want to send troops?"
There was no war, and the commanders of the Second and Third Armies all returned to the Holy Spear City. Lin Chuan and Wang Hanqiang didn't have any relatives here. They were just curious about the Holy Spear City. Knowing that there were seven fairies in the captain's house, they refused to enter Chen Feng's house and would rather sleep in Chen Weiping's house.
"Lao Wang, there are quite a few girls in your army! The war has reached this point, you can consider it. If it doesn't work, I can send some more to you. There will always be one that you like."
