"Commander, we have just finished calculating the longitude and latitude. We should now have reached the northwest side of the Gujaipuri Pass. It is about ten kilometers away from the Gujaipuri Pass and about 30 kilometers away from Raul Kela. To the south of this place, the road is

It’s split.”

"Well, this place is nice. When you look at how hard the dirt on the road is, you know that there must be teams of luggage passing through here frequently. Let's prepare to set up an ambush here. By the way, we have been traveling all the way without being discovered by the locals, right?

"

"Master, this hellish place is in the wild mountains. Along the way, we encountered more tigers than people. Even if we occasionally encountered a hunter, we killed them all. Please don't worry."

"Okay, then deploy the troops and build fortifications. That bastard Cao Bianjiao became very popular in South America, and even made everyone in the Ming Dynasty give thumbs up and praise the Special First Division. This time, we are going to let everyone

Look, our Second Special Division is not a vegetarian either!"

"Hahaha, what the division commander said is absolutely true. Before this expedition, I went home to visit relatives. When the folks at home heard that I was a special forces soldier, they would either praise the special forces divisions for being good men and fighting well in South America. Or they would question the special forces divisions.

Aren't they all in America? Why am I here? Damn it, I've been unhappy with the First Division for a long time."

"Then work hard. This time, we must let the people of Ming Dynasty know that in addition to the first division, Ming Dynasty's special forces also have a second division."

On December 1, 1647, just as all armies of the Ming Dynasty launched a large-scale landing at the same time, and Duleni finally issued a general retreat order a few hours later. Zuo Menggeng led more than 20,000 special forces and arrived in Gujayi

On the shared traffic thoroughfare behind Buri and Raul Kela.

The insertion of the Second Special Division can be said to be successful so far. Next, it depends on how long Zuo Menggeng and his men can survive in the face of hundreds of thousands of enemy troops eager to retreat, so that Liu Zhaosun can defeat the enemy's rear troops and pursue them.

We have gained enough time by attacking the enemy's main force.

…

In the early morning of December 2, in Yangon, Zhu Youdong woke up before the alarm clock rang: it was not that he had slept enough, but that as an emperor, he was under a lot of pressure due to such a large military operation with more than one million troops.

Can't sleep deeply at all.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor."

"Excuse me, has Marquis Zhenyuan had breakfast?"

"I have already eaten."

"You're welcome. Well, okay, then I'll eat it and you can tell me."

"Yes." Gu Dali walked to the map of the peninsula: "Your Majesty, as of six o'clock this morning, after summarizing the various battle reports we have received, the overall situation is as follows: At the northeast end, Cao Wenzhao's cluster report was blocked for several seconds in front of him.

The Boris cluster that has lasted months has begun to retreat. Not to mention the number of rear troops, and the will to fight is obviously weaker than before. Starting from last night to this morning, he has broken through two lines of defense of Boris, and the third and final line.

A line of defense can be broken through tomorrow at most.

Fifteen of the 20 divisions of the Luochion Cluster have landed, and five of them have already advanced forty kilometers to the northeast. The General Headquarters Staff estimates that this cluster has the potential to seize the main force of the Boris Cluster."

"possible?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. We have calculated that if the Cao Wenzhao Cluster fails to break through the enemy's third line of defense tomorrow, the Boris Cluster can retreat at full speed. In this way, the Luo Xiong Cluster will not be able to capture the Boris Cluster.

Already."

"...It doesn't matter if the Ottomans can't catch them. What I want first is to devour all these hundreds of thousands of Europeans. Send electricity to Luo Xiong and tell him that the main focus of his twenty divisions is to move north quickly and go around to

Behind the enemy's Dhaka cluster, we can capture the Boris cluster if we can. If we can't, I won't force it."

"According to the decree."

It was Gu Dali who answered the order, and there were other staff officers responsible for conveying the order. After receiving Zhu Youdong's signal, Gu Dali continued to raise his baton and said: "Of Huang Degong's 35 divisions, 23 divisions were fully landed yesterday. The forwards

The troops are divided into two groups, each with five divisions. They are moving northward in order to cut off the enemy's retreat in Dhaka and Calcutta. The fastest runner has already arrived 12 kilometers north of Dhaka city, and is in contact with the enemy.

There was a fierce exchange of fire between the enemy's peripheral troops.

Zhang Hong's five marine divisions have all landed and are heading towards Calcutta. However, the terrain here is rugged and difficult to move forward, so they are still about 30 kilometers away from Calcutta and are expected to reach the city at noon today.

On Liu Zhaosun's side, the enemy's resistance at the two mountain passes is still tenacious, and there is no hope of breaking the formation for the time being. However, Zuo Menggeng's Second Special Division has successfully circled behind the enemy."

"Well... the news was transmitted so quickly. It seems that the radio station Fangshan rushed out is not bad."

"Indeed, except for Sun Boyana, which is too far away and cannot be contacted for the time being, as long as the navy makes a transit in the middle of the Bay of Bengal, Yangon can quickly learn about the battle situation on all sides."

"Very good." Putting a fried dough stick into the soy milk and soaking it slowly, Zhu Youdong pondered for a while: "Can the logistics support at present keep up?"

"Your Majesty, when it comes to this, it's really not good. For this grand battle, in addition to the navy's transport ships and the merchant ships that were recruited in the early stage, we also urgently recruited a group last month. We are currently traveling between Yangon and

There are more than 5,000 transport ships on the east side of the peninsula. The landing point on the east side of the peninsula is not bad. The key is that so many ships are pouring into Yangon Port to load food, weapons, ammunition... The reason why the sea is now

There are still 17 divisions that continue to float because the people have boarded the ships, but their equipment is still in Yangon..."

"I know that the officials and workers at the port have been working extremely hard in the past month, but now we are at war. No matter how hard it is, we have to grit our teeth and persevere. The heavy workload is not an excuse for huge mistakes. Founder."

"My slave is here."

"Go to the port in person and tell the workers of the Bamar and Mon ethnic groups that I sympathize with their hard work and will double their wages. But if the mistakes that Marquis Zhenyuan just mentioned happen again, I will kill their managers!"

"According to the decree."

After Fang Zhenghua left in a hurry, Zhu Youdong said again: "Our current material supply, I mean, the materials shipped from the mainland can still keep up, right?"

"No problem, Your Majesty. Whether it's food or other things, the inventory is sufficient."

"That's good." After swallowing the soaked soft dough sticks in one gulp, Zhu Youdong stood up and looked at the map: "This battle will depend on how many fish can be caught when the net is closed. If

If too many fish escape, it will be really difficult to catch them.”

…

At seven o'clock in the morning on the 2nd, about 20 kilometers north of Dhaka, an encounter had just ended. On the battlefield, which was still full of the smell of gunpowder smoke, hundreds of corpses of soldiers from both the Ming and European sides were strewn about.

"Commander, the inventory of the battlefield has been completed. One hundred and thirty-five of our troops were killed in this battle, and 260 were slightly or seriously injured. One hundred and eighty-three of the white-skinned men were killed and 370 were captured. All of them were brought with them.

hurt."

"Huh~" He blew out a puff of smoke and threw away the cigarette butt in his hand. Zhang Tongchang stood up and said, "Leave a platoon behind and, together with the lightly wounded, send our seriously wounded to the field hospital at the division headquarters behind. The other brothers

, follow me and keep moving forward!"

"yes!"

Generally speaking, the land where Bangladeshis live is a large Ganges Delta. The main stream of the Ganges, as well as many tributaries of the Ganges, basically come out to sea in this area. Therefore, this place is crisscrossed by large and small rivers.

There are ponds and dense swamps. With such terrain, although the rainy season here has ended, artillery, especially heavy artillery, is still difficult to move here.

Therefore, in order to speed up and run in front of the enemy to block the opponent's retreat, the troops of the Ming army that landed first invariably left the artillery behind. Not only that, due to the rapid march, gradually, the hospitals of the non-combat troops, and civilians were

, the craftsmen all fell behind.

Fortunately, at this time, their opponents were also desperately retreating in order to avoid being surrounded. Therefore, various cannons were either blown up or discarded. Therefore, the equipment of both sides was mainly light weapons at this time.

Starting from the afternoon of the 1st, the two sides entered into a competition to compete in foot strength and speed. The contestants of this competition, combined, were nearly two million people - such a huge number, naturally there was no

How many commanders can effectively control all the troops. Therefore, after the rapid march on the night of the 1st, in the early morning of the 2nd, whether it was Luo Xiong and Huang Degong on the Ming side, or Frederick on the EU side,

Cristiano was helplessly aware that the group's march was completely in chaos.

Then, the two sides started racing and fighting all the way in the watery land of Bangladesh!

It was really a chaotic battle. It was very likely that during the rapid advance, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty suddenly discovered a group of enemy soldiers in front. Then they opened fire with crackling fire. And it was also very possible that the soldiers of the European Union were in the process of retreating.

I found that the intersection ahead was blocked by Ming army soldiers, and naturally there was another fierce battle...

As the great-grandson of Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Tongchang, who is only 26 years old this year, led his infantry regiment and has marched more than 60 kilometers northeast after landing in Chittagong, encountering various battles three times along the way.

The regiment has 3,000 soldiers, and the cumulative casualties include more than 1,000 stragglers.

"Captain, the division headquarters called and asked where we were."

"How the hell do I know where I am? You can't even catch a tongue in this damn place! Call me back, our unit should be fifteen kilometers northeast of Dhaka city."

After a while, the communications soldier came over again: "Regiment commander, the division commander ordered us to move westward and no longer northward."

"What? Aren't we going to block Boris's retreat?"

After muttering like this, he quickly adjusted: "That's right, there are ten birds in the forest, it is better to have one bird in the hand. Instead of catching Boris more than a hundred kilometers away, it is better to block the enemies in Dhaka City."

.Okay, identify the direction, let’s go west!”

"yes!"

Not only Zhang Tongchang's department, starting from the afternoon of the 2nd, the entire Bangladesh battlefield became increasingly chaotic due to the interpenetration and cutting of troops from both sides. Although battles occurred frequently, the size of the fighting troops on both sides was mostly regiments.

At the battalion level, soldiers from both sides had no heavy weapons and almost no bunkers. They held submachine guns and machine guns and fired at each other. This way of fighting meant that although there were not many broken limbs or broken arms that were torn apart by shells on the battlefield,
Chapter completed!
