Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

"My God, with so many warships, can we hold this island?" Tong Biao, the brigade commander guarding Penang, looked at the sea in front of him with a telescope, and saw the giant guns on those warships pointing at them. Constantly spewing flames, "Where is our Singapore fleet? Fucking, we can't even see a ghost at a critical moment!"

"There are so many warships, it looks like the enemy wants to land on our island!" A regiment leader beside Tong Biao said weakly.

The third fleet of the Nanyang Fleet was in charge of attacking Penang this time, under the command of Lieutenant General Liu Guanxiong. At this time, he stood at the bow of the ship, looked at the island in the distance, and asked the captain: "The island opposite us is Penang Island, right?"

"Yes."

"Pass my order, first attack the coastal defense fort, and then prepare to land!"

"Yes!"

After a burst of naval bombardment and aerial bombardment, the coastal fortifications of Penang Island have been beaten into a mess, and now it is time for the army to land.

First, the [-]rd Formation sent their Marine Vanguard Regiment to seize the beachhead.

"Hit, hit me, hit me hard, don't, don't let them land successfully!" Tong Biao yelled desperately, making his soldiers fire at the Nanyang ships on the sea, and at the marines who were about to land forcibly .

"The third formation is suppressing firepower, and the Marine Corps will land immediately, hurry up!" Liu Guanxiong seemed a little anxious.

The marines finally landed, and Tong Biao hurriedly mobilized a company of troops to the seaside to shoot desperately at the marines. At this moment, life and death are at stake, and they must not allow the marines to land.It's just that their position happened to be within the range of the naval guns, and the result can be imagined. With a loud noise, these people died so that not even their bones were left.

With a "boom", a secondary gun not far from Liu Guanxiong let out a terrifying roar, and the whole warship shook. At that time, Liu Zhenfeng was not in the command cabin, but on the side of the ship. Into the sea, thankfully he held onto the railing.

Liu Guanxiong spat hard at Penang and cursed, "Damn it!"

The naval guns attacked in bursts. As soon as the Marine Corps soldiers landed, they immediately found a bunker and counterattacked the enemy. More and more team members successfully landed. Withdrawing to the city, the beachhead was quickly brought under control, and the entire battle lasted only one hour.

"Very good, our marines have done a good job, now it's up to our main force to order the entire Fifth Division of the Navy to land!" Liu Guanxiong shouted excitedly.

The soldiers of the fifth division boarded the landing craft one after another, and then quickly sailed to the beach.With the landing of the infantry, the third formation logistics force and the tank battalion also quickly landed on the beach. When the land carrier-class medium tanks and the Tiger-class light tanks drove to the beach from the sea, the rebels who were observing in the city The generals and generals were frightened for a while. There are so many tanks, which will kill them. You know, the Hongxian army guarding Penang is not equipped with a single tank. Although there are some armored vehicles and some motorized vehicles, they can Those are all in Ranong, not on this small island. In other words, the 3rd Brigade on this small island, in addition to the infantry, the so-called heavy weapons are coastal defense artillery and their artillery units, but , Coastal defense guns have lost their power under the powerful attack of naval guns, and their so-called artillery heavy weapons, the largest is just a 105mm caliber howitzer, although it is more than enough to deal with tanks, don't forget, the opponent still has There is air power, the tanks are moving, and the opponent also has heavy artillery units. All of this shows that Penang will not escape the fate of being captured!

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Guanxiong led the senior officers of the third formation to land on the coast of Penang. The connection between Penang and nearby cities made it impossible for the supply ships in Ranong to land in Penang for resupply.

Artillery bombarded Penang continuously, and there were explosions in the city one after another. Tong Biao's 3rd Brigade was desperately resisting. Their heavy artillery was almost lost in the powerful naval artillery attack and air strike in the morning. Now the remaining The only heavy weapons are some light and heavy machine guns and mountain artillery infantry artillery.

"Thug Thuk" and "Thuk Thuk" the Maxim heavy machine guns continued to fire wildly at the initiators of the Penang position.

"Head Hu, what's the current situation?" Liu Guanxiong asked a leader.

"My lord, the situation is not optimistic. Although the opponents are only stragglers, their combat effectiveness is surprisingly strong, and the fortifications are also very strong. I have organized several attacks, but they have all resisted them." The regiment leader said depressed.

"Damn, I can't let them be so arrogant, order all the naval guns to bombard me, bombard me hard, and completely destroy their organized resistance. What I want is to be able to take Penang as soon as possible!" Liu Guanxiong gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes!"

"Also, order the Chariot Battalion to break into me immediately. No matter how you fight, as long as I get into the city, you just need to clear the way for the infantry in the rear. At the same time, the infantry is ready at any time, covered by tanks, and let me attack !"

"Yes!"

Under the powerful attack of the opponent, the rebels were forced to shrink strategically. After all, Tong Biao knew in his heart that if he was forced to consume it, it would not be able to afford it for his small force.

"Brigade Commander, if we continue like this, we may face annihilation of the entire army. Do you want to ask Commander Lu for help?" asked the chief of staff.

"Ask for help? Isn't it enough for us to guard Penang with one brigade? Besides, the sea has been blocked by the court's warships. Even if he asks for help from the division commander, he can't send troops to reinforce it. The only thing that can ask for reinforcements now is the Indonesian air force." , but, alas, forget it, seeing that there are so many enemy planes, if our air force only comes over with a few planes, it will be of no use at all. Besides, the few planes we have are still used to defend Singapore. " Tong Biao said helplessly.

Resurgence: The Fall of Satun in World War II Chapter 4 Ninety

A large number of shells were poured into the city of Penang. The city was full of flames, coke and ruins everywhere. The organized positional warfare of the rebels had been completely defeated. of elimination.

The sky is getting dark, and entering the city in the dark is quite unfavorable for the attacker. After all, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If we attack like that, we will suffer great losses. Of course, Liu Guanxiong would not do business at a loss, so he ordered that the infantry be stationed outside the city and stop attacking Penang. The area was bombarded, and no matter what, the enemy could not be calmed down at night. At the same time, the navy blocked the sea surface of Penang Island, so that the rebels could not send reinforcements or supplies to Penang Island.

"How is the landing of other ministries? Is it smooth?" Liu Guanxiong asked.

"The landing of the 3rd Regiment went smoothly, but encountered some resistance in Alor Setar. The landing on other beaches was smooth. Obviously, the enemy was not prepared enough for our landing in this area. As of the time of sending the report, our army had almost five points. The third team members have successfully landed, the beachhead is already in our hands, and the follow-up troops are also landing continuously. Now, the 3rd regiment is preparing to concentrate its superior forces to quickly take down Alor Setar. And the 4th regiment is coming According to reports, their landing operations went more smoothly. Obviously, the defense work of the rebels in the north of Penang was not done well, and they did not make careful arrangements like the frontal coast. Our 4th regiment did not encounter much resistance during the landing process. The next move of the 4th Regiment is to attack the big city of Medan, please give me your instructions."

Liu Guanxiong smiled and said: "What are the instructions? Since the offensive in the north of the city is entrusted to him, he will be fully responsible. You don't need to ask for instructions. You can fight as you like. I don't care about the process, even if you fight the whole process. It's very ugly, I only look at the result, as long as the result is good, everything is fine, of course, the premise is that I don't let me lose my troops randomly."

When the sun was just westward, the tank battalion of the Marine Corps entered the urban area of ​​Penang City. Facing such armored tanks and huge tanks, without heavy weapons and effective lethal weapons, Tong Biao's soldiers could only dodge the attack of the chariot battalion as much as possible. After all, only a fool could do such a stupid thing with their flesh and blood and steel chariots.

The battalion commander of the chariot battalion found that the entire city was silent, and knew that the other side had no weapons to attack the chariots, even grenades. Probably during the heavy bombing during the day, many weapons of the rebels were killed.

"Order the troops, no matter what, there must be something to gain. These bastards see our chariot battalion nesting now. Once our infantry enters the city, they will definitely scream happily. So, for our infantry brothers Tonight, we must clean up the whole city."

"Yes!"

If Liu Guanxiong heard what this battalion commander said, he would definitely not give him a good face, but he couldn't go wrong. Although there are still people in the city, there are not many left, and in addition, people will always die when fighting. It will inevitably hurt the people, because this is war!

A night of bombardment and a night of tank attacks made Tong Biao's 3rd Brigade exhausted. By the next morning, it was already a tired division. At this moment, Liu Guanxiong gave an order that all officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps Attacking the city like a tide, the rebel soldiers who had fought fiercely all night had already been tested mentally and physically. The confidence to resist is gone, and a large number of troops surrendered in front of the battle.Tong Biao, commander of the 3rd brigade, saw that the momentum was wrong, and disguised himself as a soldier to escape, but was shot and killed by the oncoming marines.

In this way, in less than a day, Penang, the strategic hub of the Malay Peninsula, was basically controlled by the Nanyang Fleet.

In the early morning of May 5, a unit quietly approached the border between Malaya and Thailand. The 23th Brigade of Yuan Nijun's 4th Army guarding Satun hardly noticed the dangerous approach.

With the order of Qi Xieyuan, the commander of the 20th Army Infantry Regiment, the infantry regiment launched a fierce attack on the defenders of Satun. Wang Baogui, the commander of the 4th Brigade guarding Satun, was awakened by the sound of rumbling artillery in his sleep. Call the adjutant over and ask, "What happened?"

The adjutant stammered and said: "Now, the enemy is attacking, attacking Satun."

"Fuck, I'm waiting for this day. It's time for us to make contributions. We order all soldiers to concentrate our forces to fight back. We want to show the enemy who attacked us that the officers and soldiers of the 4th Brigade are not easy to mess with." Wang Baogui said , while getting dressed, took the gun and command knife, rushed out the door, and excitedly went to command his troops to fight.

"Fire, fire, fire!" Qi Xieyuan directed the military artillery regiment to fire in the direction of Satun by radio, while the infantry regiment as the vanguard continued to attack Satun's defense line in the dark.

"Counterattack, all the goddamn fathers, come out of the trench and fight back!" Wang Baogui waved his command saber while ordering the heavy machine gunners around him to keep shooting at the incoming Huwei army.

The sound of machine guns was endless. In order to prevent the enemy's intrusion, Wang Baogui constantly mobilized heavy weapons to an attack point, and poured bullets to the opposite side frantically. Now he only thought about how to stop the enemy's strong intrusion and hold on to the Satun line of defense. If this battle can be survived, Yuan Shikai must at least give one of his division commanders a sit-down. At this time, he has no regard for whether his inventory is enough to support the entire battle.

Liu Cunhou stood on a mound ten kilometers away from Satun, observing the situation through a telescope. Chief of Staff Hong Zhaolin said from the side: "Commander, it seems that Qi Xieyuan has attracted the enemy's heavy firepower. Our other regiments can Make a detour, outflank them from the side, and attack their rear. At that time, we will be sure of this rebel army!"

Liu Cunhou immediately agreed to Hong Zhaolin's deployment, and quietly separated the main defenders of Satun from the other reinforcements according to the division of labor of the three regiments of the 20th Army. Because Wang Baogui concentrated his energy on Qi Xieyuan The infantry regiment, so he didn't even know that there were two other regiments who had already followed him.

The war lasted until dawn, and the three regiments had completely surrounded the main force of the 4th Rebel Brigade. At this time, Wang Guigui always thought that he was only fighting with one regiment's troops, but he didn't know that his troops had already Became the turtle in the urn.

"Commander, the outflanking has been completed, do you want to order a general attack?"

Liu Cunhou asked: "Did the other party discover our intentions?"

"Don't worry, don't worry about Lao Qi's infantry regiment. It has completely attracted the attention of the rebels. They didn't realize that our three regiments had quietly surrounded them. I can say that this time the enemy was captured. We are determined!" Hong Zhaolin said with certainty.

"Very good, order, general attack!"

"Yes!"

As the signal flare was lifted into the air, Qi Xieyuan, who received the order, immediately ordered: "Attention the three regiments, attack!"

All three infantry regiments launched a general attack on the small Satun. At this moment, Wang Baogui knew that his troops had been completely surrounded by the opponent, and it was not just one regiment attacking Satun.

"Brigade Commander, what should we do now? Let's generate electricity and ask for support." An adjutant asked nervously.

"It's too late, how many people are attacking us?" Wang Baogui asked.
