Chapter 329 The invincible Indian warriors, move towards Temasek Island! (Please subscribe, please vote)

There are heavy rains, dark clouds in the sky, thunder and lightning, and on the distant Indian Ocean, a tropical storm is approaching the Malay Peninsula step by step.

In the midst of this heavy rain, two large torrents of British and Indian soldiers were speeding south on slippery and sometimes muddy roads. Soldiers from the South Asian subcontinent have a greater understanding of tropical rainstorms and slippery mud than anyone else.

Adaptability. Moreover, their stomachs are more tolerant of dirty drinking water and spoiled, inadequate food. In addition, they are also accustomed to maintaining good discipline in the face of difficulties and even life and death tests.

The soldiers at the bottom remained docile in the face of loud scoldings and even horse whips from officers. This allowed them to continue to maintain good order and a fast marching speed as they rapidly advanced to Temasek Island!

That's right, the destination of these two large groups of British and Indian officers and soldiers who were rapidly advancing along the open roads on the east and west coasts of the Malay Peninsula was not Songkhla or Pattani in the Kingdom of Siam, but the Indian Empire in Malaya.

Temasek Island, the strongest and most important stronghold on the peninsula!

The reason why they want to fly towards Temasek Island is of course not because they can't defeat those Japanese devils who are wearing "bamboo hats" and look about as tall as a half-grown boy. They are the invincible Indian warriors under the command of William, the First Emperor of India. Why?

Maybe they can't beat the Japanese devils? The reason why they want to stride towards Temasek is mainly because those Japanese devils don't have martial ethics. They don't fight hard, they always engage in leapfrog landings and interspersed infiltrations!

The Indian warriors are still prepared for the landing. After all, the control of the sea is now in the hands of the Ming Dynasty, and the Japanese are the dogs of the Ming Dynasty. It is normal to release dogs from the sea to land and bite people. Moreover, leap frog landings cannot be initiated frequently. After all,

It costs a lot once.

But the penetration of the Japanese devils themselves drove the Indian warriors and the British officers who commanded them crazy!

It was clearly agreed that the tropical rainforest was a "forbidden zone" that the army could not cross! But the Japanese devils ignored this at all. As soon as they encountered the strongly fortified stronghold of the British and Indian troops, they left a small force to monitor without saying a word.

Then a large group of people carried bicycles and walked through the rainforest, not caring about how many dangerous animals there were in the rainforest, how many disease-treating bacteria there were, and how easy it was to get lost and separated.

In addition, the Japanese devils' requirements for supplies are so low that they have no moral ethics! They carry almost no baggage, just one person, one car and one gun. They plunder supplies as they advance, and they plunder whatever they encounter.

The Chinese farm would also make a white note, asking the Ming army to ask for the account. If the natives robbed them, they would rob them. If they dared to resist, they would kill them! If no one encountered them, Bark Grass Root would capture two more small animals and kill them.

Just swallow it whole.

Encountering such "savage devils" who are not afraid of hardship, let alone a bad stomach, not only the Indian warriors can't stand it, but also the British gentleman who commands them. They thought that the rainforest was a natural danger, and that except for the local indigenous people, outsiders could not get through at all.

.If we can barely survive, the non-combat attrition will have to make the commanders hesitate. But no one thought that those Japanese devils didn't care at all!

If the number of people is reduced, then the number of people will be reduced. How can a bunch of poor and crazy Japanese devils be afraid of this?

What makes the British gentlemen and Indian warriors even more stunned is that each of these Japanese devils has a bicycle! The British have ruled Malaya for many years. In addition to making money, they have also done some serious things, such as building roads. So there are many people on the Malay Peninsula.

There were several paved roads, and Japanese soldiers rode bicycles on them, running 15 kilometers an hour with their eyes closed. This speed could almost catch up with the motorized troops!

Originally, the British calculated well. They could hide in well-equipped strongholds to block the ground troops of the Ming Dynasty and Japan, and wait for them to slowly attack with artillery. If they could no longer hold on, they could retreat calmly and move to the next stronghold.

Continue to defend. The road trip from the Indian-controlled Malay Peninsula and the border with Siam to Temasek Island is more than 700 kilometers. Under normal circumstances, fight slowly, retreat slowly, and take a rest when you are tired. It will take a year and a half.

It’s over. But the Japanese are riding bicycles in the rainforest without bringing supplies. They can push you 100 kilometers a day and a night!

Well, with this strategy, we will be outside Temasek Island in a week! Although Temasek Island is the strongest fortress in the world and cannot be captured. But what should we do with the tens of thousands of British and Indian troops scattered on the Malay Peninsula?

Can’t we give it up?

Therefore, after Viscount Beresford discovered that something was wrong, he immediately ordered the besieged British and Indian troops to break out of the encirclement and go south to find Ming Dynasty, the main force of the Japanese coalition forces, for a decisive battle!

And these Indian warriors who broke out to seek a decisive battle actually won a few battles at first - those short Japanese soldiers were really vulnerable, and they all fled on their bicycles with only a little resistance, while pulling cannons and baggage

Of course, the elite British and Indian soldiers could not let them go, so they chased them closely. As they chased them, they accidentally fell into an ambush! If the weather was good, there would be planes bombing and strafing!

So the decisive battle of the British and Indian troops to break out quickly turned into an ambush and a rout. However, the combat effectiveness of the little devils who ambushed the British and Indian warriors did not seem to be very good. The most they could do was ambush and defeat, and they could not completely annihilate them.

In other words, there was no time to annihilate them all, because the Indian warriors retreated at such an alarming speed that they couldn't even "catch up" on bicycles!

Therefore, the little devil could only "chase slowly" on a bicycle, and the Indian warriors who were speeding south, coupled with the leapfrog landing launched by the Allied Forces of Tomorrow and Japan from the sea, soon triggered a "serial run" on the Malay Peninsula.

"Effect. In order to avoid being taken back and ambushed, the British and Indian troops in many strongholds simply ran away with their baggage and artillery without waiting for the Japanese to outflank them, and began to "drop treasures" while running.

In the midst of the storm, on the road leading to Temasek Island, there were all discarded good things, including carts, weapons, supplies, military uniforms, ammunition, and curry-flavored marching rations. Some were discarded along the way.

The mules and horses with sprained feet kept making long or short whines on the roadside. There were also some abandoned wounded and sick people, crying in the heavy rain and muddy water.

"Oh God! Please save me! I was wrong. I should not join the army of Y believers."

"O Shiva, forgive me. I am not a Kshatriya. I should not have joined the army. I was wrong!"

"Master, please tell me what I should do. I have been abandoned by those cunning and shameless British!"

"It's over, it's over, the Gurkha soldiers can't fight anymore."

This British-Indian army, in the eyes of outsiders, is a British gentleman commanding Indian warriors. However, the composition of this Indian warrior is complicated, including Devahanites, Hindus, Sikhs, and Gurkha mercenaries. These are still broad categories.

, there are also subdivided subcategories, and even experts can’t figure out who is with whom? Moreover, this large group of people use different languages. If you don’t speak Curry English, communication with each other will be a problem.

However, such a messy army, which has begun to abandon heavy equipment and wounded and sick people in large numbers, has not yet reached the point of collapse. Because they still maintain a certain level and order, the words of the white officer corps still apply. More importantly,

, they can still advance towards Temasek Island at a relatively fast speed.

Even though they were Japanese soldiers riding bicycles, it was a bit hard to catch up with them on this rainy day and the road was slippery. It was a miracle that they actually ran over two wheels with two legs!

It was precisely because of this miracle that the Temasek Fortress, which was personally guarded by Viscount Beresford, quickly gathered enough troops. More than 100,000 troops poured into Temasek Island in mid-to-late January 1831. The defense of the entire island changed.
