Chapter 351 Do a big vote
"Regiment Commander, Regiment Commander Zhou and others won a big victory!" A communication officer ran into the regiment headquarters with a look of surprise and reported to Colonel Han Jianfang, the commander of the 1st Infantry Regiment.
"What's the point of making a fuss? It's very normal for our troops to win battles." Colonel Han Jianfang looked like this.
"Regiment, regiment commander, Battalion Commander Zhou and others captured an entire Thai infantry division." The communication officer reported.
"What? Captured the entire Thai infantry division? How is this possible?" After hearing this news, Colonel Han Jianfang jumped up suddenly, with an incredible face. After all, the 3rd Infantry Battalion had less than 1,000 people in total. A Thai infantry division had more than 10,000 people. If the 3rd Infantry Battalion relied on its powerful firepower to resist the attack of an infantry division of the Thais and even defeated them, Colonel Han Jianfang was more likely to believe it. However, capturing the entire Thai infantry division was too unexpected.
"Captain, this news is true. I have confirmed it to them. Battalion Commander Zhou asked the military headquarters to send troops to receive these prisoners of war as soon as possible. They will continue to chase the fleeing Japanese and Thai coalition forces." The communication officer reported.
"Okay, haha! I knew that sending the 3rd Infantry Battalion to pursue the Japanese and Thais would be effective. As expected, they made another great contribution! Hurry up and report to the division commander." Colonel Han Jianfang laughed.
The 3rd Infantry Battalion has established such a great merit. He, the regiment commander, has naturally had a naked face. If the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army is expanded next time, he will be promoted to division commander, and there will be no doubt about it.
The 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, with less than one battalion of troops, was reported to the 1st Army headquarters in the shortest time.
Lieutenant General Sun Changwu, the commander of the 1st Army, was very excited to hear the news. He actually used an infantry battalion to deal with an enemy's infantry division. Isn't that a feat? This is undoubtedly the surface, and the enemy is even more vulnerable.
"Old Yu, in my opinion, we have to inform the entire army of this good news. Let everyone know how powerful our troops are. Everyone is a warrior who serves as ten." Lieutenant General Sun Changwu said with a smile.
"Well, the victory won by the 3rd Infantry Battalion this time should indeed be rewarded, and we should report it to the commander." Lieutenant General Yu Chengyin also said.
"Well, that's right, report this good news to the commander. This kid Zhou Yuanhua made such a great contribution this time. The next time the army is expanded, a regiment commander will be indispensable." Lieutenant General Sun Changwu said.
Indeed, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army is in a stage of rapid development. It has now developed into two armies. Once Thailand is captured, it will not be a problem to rely on many local Chinese to form the 3rd Army or even the 4th Army. At that time, all the officers of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army will definitely be promoted.
The 3rd Infantry Battalion led by Zhou Yuanhua made such a great contribution this time, and the next expansion of the army will inevitably become the first choice for promotion.
"Send the nearest unit to them to pick them up and guard the prisoners for them. In addition, send a telegram to tell them that in the next battle, they must make contributions and pay attention to their own safety." Lieutenant General Sun Changwu ordered.
"Okay, Commander." Lieutenant General Yu Chengyin nodded.
Major Zhou Yuanhua, the temporary command center of the 3rd Battalion of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, is analyzing the information that was interrogated.
"I am a Japanese and Thai, are you planning to gather in Samut Pang Po and then stay there to wait for help?" Major Zhou Yuanhua frowned.
These Thais were all soft-boys. After a brief interrogation, the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army learned the plan from them. During the Battle of the Wonbin River Defense Line, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses. In addition to the independent 29th Brigade stationed in Bangkok, there were only a few thousand people left in the entire 18th Front Army. They were all second-line combat troops and could not resist the attack of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Therefore, in order to defend Besang Po, Lieutenant General Nakamura, the commander of the 18th Front of the Japanese Army, undoubtedly hoped that more troops would gather in Besang Po. Even if the Thai army was garbage and cannon fodder, the number of cannon fodder could still play a role. Therefore, the order was issued to every Thai army's infantry division to gather in Besang Po.
"Pak Pangpo, the geographical location is very good! The Wonbin River and the Nan River converge here, and then it is called the Chao Phraya River, which flows through the Thai capital. If the bridge on the Wonbin River is blown up, it will be very difficult for us to pursue the Japanese* himself. Even, they will have enough time to gather troops here. At that time, if we want to defeat the Japanese* himself, we will have to work harder.
No, we must seize the Besung Pond before Japan himself, blow up the bridge on the Wonbin River, and block Japan himself here. We will create opportunities to wipe out them all." Major Zhou Yuanhua suddenly made up his mind.
Although the troops he commanded were just an unsatisfied infantry battalion and a reconnaissance company. However, he was very brave. He had enough trucks to carry on, so that their speed was faster than any unit, and he could completely detour to reach Pao Pang Po.
"Order all departments to assemble immediately, and then set off immediately after twenty minutes. Looking for a guide to know the way, we immediately go to Pek Pang Po to block the retreat of Japanese people." Major Zhou Yuanhua issued the order.
Although the 3rd Infantry Battalion was a little suspicious of the order to go to Pek Pangpo, they still executed the order. After all, no one thought that with their infantry battalion, they could capture a Thai infantry division. Didn’t they do it?
Half an hour later, the 3rd Infantry Battalion set off, took a car and rushed to Pek Pangpo, resolutely decided to use their less than a thousand troops to resist the hundreds of thousands of Japanese and Thai coalition forces. As for whether they would be shattered like a mantis arm, they had never considered it.
Of course, before departure, Major Zhou Yuanhua also reported his plan to the command center and asked the command center to provide them with more support as much as possible.
For example, air support, etc. In this way, they can hold on under the fierce attack of Japan himself. If they keep it, it will undoubtedly be another great contribution!
