The British and Burmese troops in Wancheng were defeated under the sudden and rapid attack of the Anjia Army Brigade, and were unable to organize effective resistance. In desperation, an infantry regiment of the British Lashio Brigade seized the road and fled westward.
The Burmese army's baggage troops faced a catastrophe before they could escape.
The soldiers of the Anjia Army, who had rich experience in street fighting and had special training, were equipped with a large number of submachine guns and grenades for this battle. The soldiers of the *** Brigade 1 and 3rd regiment rushed through the wooden bridge reinforced by the British and immediately divided into two groups.
Killing to the east and west of the town, dense rain of bullets poured into all the British and Burmese troops in yellow uniforms. Occasionally, when encountering enemy troops huddling in the corner of the street, more than a dozen grenades would fly over the building, accurate
When the enemy's firepower points fell, there were dense sounds of point shooting and grenade explosions everywhere inside and outside the town. The howlings of the enemy before death and the loud echoes of the attacking soldiers, constantly echoing over the town.
The Second Regiment, who was in charge of fire assistance, saw that the enemy troops on the north bank had not organized any resistance at all, and immediately joined the town to search for the remaining enemies. The subsequent arrival of the engineering battalion and the baggage company brothers firmly occupied the north and south of the Kukuya Bridge.
Both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
At the same time, more than 5,000 soldiers of the Guizhou Army assault brigade in the east sneaked out of the dense forests and launched an unremitting surprise attack on the 11th Burmese Army Regiment guarding the traffic road Nanzha Bridge, which took only more than twenty minutes.
That is, the record of annihilation of more than 600 enemies and capturing more than 300 people, seized a large number of weapons and equipment and three trucks, and then began to build blocking lines and firepower points in the south of the bridge, and from then on, they shouldered the important task of fully blocking the enemy's retreat from the west.
The commander of the Burmese Army and more than 40 remaining soldiers fled into the deep mountains to the north. The brothers of the Assault Brigade's spy camp chased each other under the leadership of local villagers and plundered the *** throne in any case. All the Burmese Army did evilly
wipe out.
Liu Yifang led more than a dozen regiment battalion commanders and guard companies to identify and interrogate the prisoners. Three frightened British advisers were ordered to be detained alone.
The villagers who were killed around knew that their team had recovered the town and Nanzhaqiao, and killed hundreds of Burmese troops, so even more prisoners were captured. In excitement, they gathered in groups, helping the elderly and the young, and they were so proud that they had been in two days.
The Burmese military officers and soldiers who are now scared to death are caught by angry villagers, and are shot out by the angry assault brigade officers and soldiers without saying a word. In less than half an hour, more than 370 people were killed.
Only more than 120 prisoners were left. They began to build fortifications under the guns of the soldiers. A little resistance would lead to a blow. The Burmese army badges, daggers, pistols and British people.
The jungle machetes and other items specially created for them have become souvenirs that the soldiers are keen to collect.
The battle under Longling City to the east was already over. After the angry security guards of the Yunnan Army fought, they were surprised to find that there was no prisoner left in this battle. The scorched earth all over the mountains were covered with British and Burmese soldiers.
The wounded enemy soldiers who were surviving on the ground were quickly re-sold. It was roughly calculated that more than 6,400 enemies were wiped out in this battle, of which more than 600 British officers and soldiers had bodies, and the captured guns and ammunition were piled up like mountains.
Zhan Huanqi ordered the engineer battalions of the two divisions to stay and clean the battlefield, count the British corpses, and buried them under two earth slopes northwest of the city. The Burmese corpses everywhere were directly thrown into the trenches they dug themselves and filled with soil.
The spirited and fighting spirited main force continued to pursue the west, striving to join the soldiers of the Second and Third Divisions in the front before nightfall to launch a fierce attack on the main force of the British and Myanmar army fled to Luxi, and would never leave any breath for the enemy.
Opportunity.
The key point of this battle was that Ruili City had already burst into gunfire and was in chaos. The elite Anjin Special Forces Brigade, which suddenly appeared from the south, crossed the guards of Heman Ferry with lightning speed and rushed straight to the city of Britain and Burmese
The coalition command center, deputy captain Xiao Yifu led two teams to cover and fire suppression along the way. Chief of staff Pei Rongguang led a team to stay at the ferry. An Jin personally led two teams to quickly attack the British-Burma League Command and face them.
Almost no enemy can stand the fierce attack of the elite special forces. An Jin led his troops to the gate of the command center. The guards of a company of British troops had just begun to gather, and the temporary fortifications and light and heavy machine guns of the security command were not yet set up.
After that, under the crazy attacks of more than 150 well-trained special elite grenades and submachine guns, the assault team was buried with almost no decent resistance, and then crashed into the bank gate and picked up the
The gun fires ruthlessly at all targets that can move.
The center of the British-Burma Alliance's overall battlefield command is located in the bank building in the city. The three-story European-style buildings have been cleared by the British army. Countless accounts and documents have been burned, and more than 200,000 silver dollars and more than 100,000 Southwest Banks were in stock.
The banknotes have been transported back to the rear by the British army.
An Jin led an assault team to rush up to the second floor with blood all over the ground, glanced around, walked a few steps to the British colonel who was shouting, raised his hand and slapped the colonel twice, and beat the colonel so hard that it was swirling.
The ground, spit out a few teeth and fainted. More than a dozen British officers around him looked at An Jin, who was covered in oil on his face and dressed like a soldier, and was silent. No one dared to use any "international convention" to clamor.
Your own rights.
Ten minutes later, a British defender regiment stationed in the west of Fuxing Military Camp in Ruili City, and a British-Burma army stationed in the throat of the east of the city rushed to rescue and found that the burning building could no longer enter, and the British army inside and outside the bank were all British.
The bodies, the wounded soldiers tossing and turning under the charred walls of the building and the destroyed posts abounded.
The commander of the British army grabbed a wounded soldier and asked, let go of his hand and shouted and rushed to the Heman Ferry in the south of the city. Countless angry British officers and soldiers followed him desperately. The command center was attacked in broad daylight, and more than 30 schools were famous.
The great shame of the robbery officer and a brigade general being robbed was like burning flames, burning among the hearts of every British officer and soldier.
When he was chasing about 500 meters away from the ferry, a dense mortar shell suddenly roared and exploded in the bush of more than 2,000 British soldiers who were swarming. The broken limbs and arms flew into the air with the smoke of gunpowder.
The walls, doors and windows were immediately splashed with blood and minced meat.
After more than 2,000 well-trained British officers and soldiers stubbornly got up from the ground, a series of explosions came again from the ferry. The British officers and soldiers who rushed to the river bank first looked at the broken ship boards floating on the river and the sinking ones
A small ferry ferry shouted angry and helplessly. At the bend of the South Bank Mountain, more than a dozen figures in camouflage military uniforms flashed and disappeared.
The commander of the British army shouted again, and someone in the crowd led a thin horse. The commander jumped up, and his tall and strong body made the thin horse stagger. Under the whip, he stepped out of his slender body.
The four hooves rushed back to the barracks with the regiment commander. The regiment commander wanted to report to the headquarters in Myitkyina as quickly as possible, and requested the headquarters to send troops to search for the enemy troops fleeing eastward on the south bank of the Ruili River. No matter what,
More than thirty officers cannot be allowed to become prisoners of the Central Team.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the offensive and defensive battle in Luxicheng started again. After the security division was in place, the security division received strong firepower support and layers of ***. The mortar battalions equipped by each division were best used at this time.
The soldiers carrying the new 50 mortars were in groups of three, quickly and flexibly approaching the most intense battles, and used the mortars to pull out the enemy's machine gun fire points. This battle was particularly fierce, and both sides invested a lot of troops.
More than 38,000 people.
The British and Burmese troops, who were frightened, learned that the retreat of the retreat to Wancheng had been cut off by the Zhongzhang team, and could only follow the orders of the Supreme Commander, Brigadier General Kent, and stand firm and wait for assistance.
Kent judged that although the Zhong*** team in the direction of Wancheng cut off the retreat route, its strength was not enough to launch an active attack. At least until noon tomorrow, it could not attack the west side of the Luxury. As long as you stick to the west side of the Luxury, you can resist the Zhongxury.
After six hours of attack, the two reserve divisions in the south will quickly cross the China-Myanmar border and enter the battlefield to rescue Luxi. It may even surround the Chinese team and annihilate them at the city of Luxi.
The British and Burmese military officers and soldiers who were on the front line believed it, but they didn't know that the command center in Ruili City had been taken away by the Chinese team at this time, and they didn't know that the two reinforcements in Kent's mouth had been put into service.
The 26th Army suddenly launched a full-line artillery bombardment, which was tightly restrained on the eastern battlefield a hundred kilometers away. The only army that could be dispatched to provide assistance was the only British brigade stationed in Lashio and a Burmese infantry.
The division, but it is probably after the next afternoon when the reinforcements from Lashio arrived.
Guanyin Temple in Longtang Village, six kilometers west of the west city, has become Zhan Huanqi's front command center. The generals and schoolmen in the hall are all full of joy and confidence.
As the battle reports from the front departments came, especially the Second Security Division successfully defeated the enemy defending the south of the city and occupied the only bridge on the Golang River. The British and Burmese troops in Luxi City have since been trapped in heavy troops in the east and south.
, It is unlikely that you want to escape the Golang River and retreat into Myanmar to the south. The only way to live is to escape west. If you go north, you will enter the hinterland of the mountains in western Yunnan. There is only one dead end. It will be a long time to be surrounded and annihilated by heavy troops.
thing.
In the west direction of Wancheng, Liu Yifang, who received the order, had led the assault brigade to leave Nanzha Bridge and attacked the struggling British and Burmese troops from behind as quickly as possible.
Zhan Huanqi was not worried that the British and Burmese army would dare to evacuate Luxi at this time and flee towards Wancheng. As long as there was a flaw in the enemy's position, the 20,000 soldiers with a strong morale under his command would destroy the entire enemy's defense line by breaking a little. The enemy
As long as you dare to escape, no matter how fast you are, you will not be as fast as the soldiers of the Yunnan Army who are brave enough to pursue them. Moreover, once a large-scale defeat occurs, the British and Burmese army, whose morale is lost and their chaotic morale can only wait for the fate of being chased and massacred.
"Where has the Yifang's assault brigade movement gone?" Zhan Huanqi was most concerned about the most critical position in this battle.
Li Yunfeng quickly replied: "It is still eleven kilometers away from the battlefield. It is estimated that it will arrive in an hour and a half. As long as the assault brigade defeats the enemy's rear guards or forms a confrontation, the battle will be almost over."
Fang Pengxiang stepped forward and added: "In order to be safer, I have ordered Jiao Guangxu to lead two regiments to chase the Yifang's assault brigade at full speed. As long as it can block all the enemy's retreat, it is meaningless to temporarily give up the Wancheng, which is no longer very meaningful.
What's wrong? If the enemy's western reinforcements dare to attack Wanding, there are also our regiments that can't be stopped, it doesn't matter. After the battle, you just need to turn around and kill the backlash. How dare the enemy who does not exceed one brigade
Stay in Wanding and wait for death?”
The brothers laughed happily, and Zhan Huanqi also showed a long-lost bright smile on her face. This battle not only cleared her reputation, but also wiped out the shame that had been hidden deep in her heart for many years for the military and civilians in western Yunnan, and passed a refreshing moment.
The great victory will allow the military and civilians in western Yunnan to gain unprecedented confidence and cohesion, and achieve years of peaceful life and stable development, which is worth thousands of dollars!
