The battle to attack the charity is very critical, but the battle between Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao cannot focus on the battle of the thugs. As the battle commander, Pei Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao do not need to pay attention to tactical actions, but should concentrate on coordinating various combat forces.

The airborne thugs set out first and then the old thugs also embarked on the journey.

Although the departure time of the brigade of the Air Force was about minutes later than that of the two airborne brigades, and the flight speed was much slower than that of the Air Force transport planes. However, Jogbeni and Dalpenga were closer to the departure base of the Air Force's Central Brigade and required a shorter flight time.

At 2 o'clock, the vanguard of the Air Turkic Brigade arrived at Jorgeberni.

The old Air Brigade encountered no trouble in the combat operation of the attack on Jiaogeberni. The two Indian infantry battalions stationed there only carried out slight resistance. After finding that they could not defeat the opponent, the Indian commander raised the white flag. The battle to attack Darpenga was more troublesome. There were thugs stationed in the area, and there were less than Fiery people in the attacking troops.

The battle started at 2 o'clock. Although the old thug who was in the assault mission broke through the outer defense line of the Indian army, entered the city of Darpenga, and began to advance towards the railway station. It is normal to encounter trouble, and the speed of advancement is within the predicted direction of the front. As long as the second thug and Muyou camp can meet with the second thug before dawn, there will be no suspense in the battle of Darpenga.

With the airborne thug, the vanguard of the Nai Brigade arrived in Varanasi at 2 o'clock.

Although Varanasi is not the location of the local capital, it is just a big city in the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh, India, as the largest railway transportation hub center in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges, Varanasi is not at all important than Ranchi, and the Indian troops stationed there are no fewer than Ranchi.

In order to occupy Varanasi as soon as possible, the airborne thug Nai Lu selected the airborne field on the beach on the north bank of the Ganges River to the north of the city.

This choice greatly increases the difficulty of airborne combat.

It was about halfway through the airborne thug. Moreover, to the south is the Ganges River, which is several thousand meters wide, and to the north is the railway trunk line guarded by the Indian army. The north-south width of the airborne yard is only 2 kilometers, and the east-west length is less than 3 kilometers.

Although narrowing the airborne field can shorten the defense line. However, after the airborne field is over, Xiaoai Camp has to face a very helpless choice, that is, to give up the action of advancing westward to attack Varanasi, and assault north as soon as possible, capture the defense line set up by the Indian army on the south side of the railway trunk line, and prevent the Indian counterattack troops from moving south.

In this way, the airborne thug Nai Lu lost his original meaning when he landed on the river beach.

Fortunately, the airborne thugs, Nai Brigade, should have landed on the open plain northwest of Varana, and then attacked Varanasi southward. The Indian army's defensive forces also placed the main force in the northwest of Varana, and set up crisscrossing defense arrays. Perhaps it was affected by the defense deployment of the Indian army that the airborne marsh brigade had to choose a river beach with an area of ​​less than a square kilometer as the airborne field. Fight against the Indian army.

Li Dongshi sent a thug and Nai Lu to fight fiercely with the Indian army on the north side of the river.

Although the propulsion of the old airborne brigade was a little slower and failed to occupy the railway station in eastern Varanasi as soon as possible according to the plan, the entire combat operation was still within a controllable range. The off-bombing provided by the Air Force effectively curbed the Indian army's ability to move, and bought more time for the airborne thugs. As long as the Varanasi Railway Station is occupied before dawn, the old airborne brigade will complete the combat mission.

The airborne distillation brigade serving as the battle reserve team was not moved.

According to the modified combat plan, the airborne thug will wait until the airborne thug is in. If the Indian army abandons the counterattack of Ranchi and Varanasi, and chooses to break through between Ranchi and Varanasi, the airborne yam will send the main force to Dehri and Gerva to cut off the Indian army's breakthrough route.

It can be seen that the Airborne Peng Brigade was responsible for the final "closing" operation.

Compared with the battle encirclement operations on the west and south of the battlefield, the main attack operations on the east and north of the battlefield are more worthy of attention.

The combat operation to capture Bahamampur and Padbala is still under the responsibility of the Airborne Army. Because the distance is close, the air raiders and the Air Departure Times are even later.

Compared with the operations of the two airborne brigades, the main support forces of the Air Force and the Air Force are not the Air Force and the Army Air Force, but the independent artillery brigade of the Dangling Army deployed in Bangladesh.

It has to be said that as the capital garrison, the feather army has received more preference than the sword army.

As the largest field army in the Republic Army, the Jijun not only has the largest number of combat brigades. It is also the only field army with two independent artillery brigades, and each independent artillery brigade has an artillery battalion. When the Yujun entered Myanmar, he did not carry much ammunition and medicine. Before the battle began, Pei Chengyi mobilized the air transport force of the amphibious assault fleet and gave the thousands of tons of artillery shells originally provided for the fleet to the Decao Army. Although thousands of tons of artillery shells are used for up to two artillery brigades to consume several Xiaogang, the Decao Army is the most critical hours of the battle. "I'm talking about it again, as the Marines open up the ground supply line, the Decao Army can get supplies.

With the support of the artillery fire from the Jiaojun, the battle to attack Bahamampur was very easy.

It seems that I don’t trust the Air Force thugs. Before the battle begins, the reconnaissance forces of the 3rd Army crossed the India-Bangladesh border and arrived outside the Baharapur to find the target for the artillery.

After the battle began, the Blink Brigade's thugs of the Concave Army asked for artillery support, and also used the data provided by the scouts to complete the additional mission. Although this operation violated the combat orders issued by the frontline command, Pei Chengyi only wanted the result and did not go through the process. As long as the Dick Brigade provided support and maintained firepower throughout the attack, no matter how it attacked, it would be fine.

Relatively speaking, the air thug thugs and brigade attacked Padbala is much more difficult.

Mainly, Padbala is about 1,000 meters north of Kolkata. It not only protects Kolkata's main military stronghold, but also leads to the railway and highway hub center north of Kolkata. It is also the most important military fortress in India's east bank of the Ganges River facing Bangladesh. Not to mention, the troops stationed in Padbala have many women and divisions, and there are also 30,000 temporary mobilized armed personnel.

Because Padbala's defense is strong enough, Pei Chengyi arranged a lot of support forces.

The battle began at 2 a.m., at 2 a.m., the fleet in Yougo in the Bay of Bengal concentrated its firepower and carried out fierce shelling of Padbara. According to the battle report submitted by Hua Kefeng after the end of the battle, the Ao Cruiser, the destroyer threw a total of bombs at Padbara. Three rounds of full-coverage shelling were carried out. Then, six aircraft carriers dispatched Jinjin fighter jets and threw nearly 1,000 tons of bombs at Padbara, completing the fourth full-coverage strike.

I have to say that the early firepower preparations for attacking Padbala were the most intense.

Even so, when the vanguard of the brigade arrived, the vanguard of the air thug still encountered stubborn resistance from the Indian army.

After the battle began, the air officers and soldiers had to advance step by step in the air support fire of our brigade and the artillery fire provided by the brigade. In the words of the battalion field commander who participated in this battle, almost every few meters ahead, the troops had to stop and call for fire support. Those Indian army defense fortifications that suddenly appeared. If the fire support was not in time and sufficient, I am afraid that officers and soldiers would come down every step forward.

The assault war turned into a tough battle, which surprised Pei Chengyi.

It was only 3 o'clock that Pei Chengyi received the news from the front line feedback. He learned that among the three Indian military divisions stationed in Padbala, there were at least one armored division. Obviously, there was a problem with the intelligence. When the battle plan was formulated, the information provided by the Military Intelligence Bureau and the reconnaissance units proved that Padbala had only three Indian infantry divisions and no armored divisions.

The battle situation suddenly changed, and Pei Chengyi's effect of adjusting the battle plan appeared.

After 4 o'clock, the air rushed back to the brigade and took part in the combat operation to attack Padbala.

In order to avoid the offensive forces being too concentrated, the Air Brush Return Brigade did not attack in the direction of the Air Brush thug Brigade, but instead landed south of Padbara, cut off Padbara's connection with Kolkata, surrounded Padbara, and then attacked Padbara to the north.

If Yuan Chenhao's battle plan is followed, Pei Chengyi will send at most several battalions up, and he will not be able to send a thug to the brigade.

After sending the air to the brigade, Pei Chengyi was no longer worried about the combat operations in the direction of Padbara.

If neither of the two brigades can defeat Padbala, there is no need for the air assault troops to exist.

Even if the old Air Raid Brigade was sent in advance, Pei Chengyi still had two air assault brigades and thugs. Airborne Brigades, that is, the size of the reserve team is equivalent to the irrigation of the offensive troops. Although according to traditional tactical theory, offense focuses on one-time investment, that is, at the beginning of the offensive, enough troops must be invested to open the enemy's defense line. However, in modern wars where firepower determines the victory or defeat, offense pays more attention to sustainability. Especially in large-scale attacks, if there is no combat troops with sustainable investment, the offense will become weak. Even if a breakthrough can be opened in the early stage of the battle, it will not be able to expand the range of attacks, thus losing the initiative in attack.

After sending the Kongtu Japanese brigade, Pei Chengyi's battle layout was basically completed.

Assault operations in one direction are equivalent to inserting three nails around the enemy, opening a sparse and unobstructed net of heaven and earth, covering the eastern Indian Army Group.

What we need to do next is to advance to the top

At 4 o'clock, the Concao thugs of the Concao Army changed to a full-scale harassment war.

As the "First Brigade" of the fallen army, the armored brigade took on the heavy responsibility of tearing open the Indian army's defense line.

The hit on the front is the result of Pei Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao's repeated discussions.

Whether the Indian army's defense line can be quickly tore open up to have a decisive impact on the subsequent offensive actions.

In other words, only by quickly breaking through the Indian army's defense line can we expand the breakthrough at the fastest speed and invest more combat troops. In this way, the first round of assaults pay more attention to quality rather than speed. Although the sword army has the ability to tear open the Indian army's defense line, the assault operations of the sword army often focus on speed. It is impossible to defeat the frontal enemies in the first time. Only heavy armored troops like the Ming army have the ability to defeat the frontal enemies while making breakthroughs and create more opportunities for the assault troops behind them.

The battle was very smooth. The first step of the Indian Army's First Army, which was stationed on the first line of defense, broke through, and then began to shrink backwards. Although the commander of the Infantry Division of the First Infantry Division made the correct decision and used the method of shrinking the defense line and increasing the density of troops to delay the progress of the Armored Brigade. However, the Fourth Infantry Division did not face the armored assault brigade, but the armored brigade that was very good at expanding the breakthrough. After discovering that the Indian Army began to shrink the defense line, the Armored Brigade immediately expanded to both sides. The width of the attack was expanded, and the Indian Army's shrinking action evolved into a collapse of the entire line.

By chance, Lieutenant General Qu Maokang, the commander of the Blue Army, seized the opportunity to join the Armored Brigade of the Tidou.

Although the Indian Army's Tile-Calendar Panzer Division and the Tifeng Infantry Division stationed on the second line of defense have entered the defensive position, and some of the combat troops of the Tile-Blade Infantry Division have retreated to the second line of defense. However, under the assault of two armored brigades, the Indian Army could not defend the fragile defense line at all.

After 6 o'clock, Qu Maokang entered the third combat brigade.

The Armored Assault Brigade did not join the frontal attack, but entered the battle from the northeast direction and attacked the right wing defense line of the Indian army. In order to cooperate with the offensive operation of the Armored Assault Brigade, the Armored Brigade, when it arrived at the second line of defense of the Indian army, handed over the frontal main attack task to the Armored Armored Brigade, which was vigorously mobilized westward, launched a fierce attack on the left wing defense line of the Indian army, and set up an encirclement of the Indian army.

Stability.

To this point, let alone defending the second line of defense, it would be great that the Indian army could gain a foothold in Brnia.

With the frontal attack already made a breakthrough and the offensive mission is about to be completed ahead of schedule, Pei Chengyi immediately sent another main force to the next. The problem is not how to attack Burnia, how to increase the offensive route and let the gathering combat troops unfold.

Xiong Zhanfen, it was almost bright, and the sword army, who had been waiting in the rear for several hours, finally received the order to join the battle.

Ling Yunxiao did not delay for a second and immediately let the ready-to-go troops set off.

The Knife has two missions, and they are both fast assault missions.

The first task was to capture Lai Gengjie in the southeast of Jischengenjie, open up the railway transportation line from Bangladesh to Jischengenjie, laying the foundation for the combat materials obtained from Bangladesh later. Because the front line of the Indian army had collapsed, the two second-line infantry divisions stationed at Lai Gengjie would definitely not be more good at fighting than the main division, and would even take the initiative to retreat after the collapse of the entire line. Therefore, Ling Yunxiao only sent the 3rd Armored Assault Brigade and told the brigade commander clearly that after occupying Lai Gengjie, if the Indian army retreated south, he would leave a thug to guard Lai Gengjie, and the main force was not allowed to chase the Indian army south. It was not until he captured England Bazar that he stopped and waited for supplies and reinforcements.

I have to say that Ling Yunshang is a very subjective and active battlefield commander.

According to Pei Chengyi's plan, after capturing Lai Gengjie, there is no need to rush to capture the British Bazar. Only when the Indian army attempts to advance from British Bazar to Bangladesh, the troops occupying Lai Gengjie should go south as soon as possible. Based on the battlefield situation at that time, staying in Lai Gengjie can ensure that combat supplies from Bangladesh can be obtained. The operation to capture British Bazar is not very necessary. Even in order to open the ground passage to Bahrambul and Padbala as soon as possible, the Hong army can make a major breakthrough on the front. That is, after occupying Brnia and the Indian army retreated across the board, they will occupy English Bazar without any blood.

It’s not that Ling Yunxiao is impatient, he just doesn’t want to steal the limelight.

In addition to the Armored Assault Brigade heading south to attack Laigenje, the Armored Assault Brigade and the Armored Assault Brigade both followed the advance route of the Concave Army. After arriving at the first line of defense of the Indian army, they quickly turned westward, crossed the Iram River, and launched an assault in the direction of Burnia. During this period, the Armored Assault Brigade would also divide a force to capture Alaria between Burnia and Giorgibeni, and open up the ground passage from Giorgibeni to Burnia.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, Pei Chengyi's deployment is a bit superfluous.

Hongjun has enough ability to attack Brnia. Is it necessary to let the sword army launch a repeated attack?

The answer is yes, very necessary.

Burnia has very important military value, and the capture of Burnia is the first important target of the ground attack. In other words, occupying Burnia is equivalent to establishing a foothold on the north bank of the Ganges River, opening the entrance to Patnabihar capital and Varanasi, and laying the foundation for the trip to Dazhu Pengga.

According to Pei Chengyi's deployment, after completing the battle encirclement and division, the Ganges North will be wiped out first.

Even if you look at it from a small scale, you can cut off the retreat between the three main divisions of the Indian First Army and the second-line division and complete the first round of tactical encirclement operations.

From this we can see that the faster the Brnia is, the easier the battle will be.

Attract the main force of the Indian First Army on the front, and then let the sword army run to the Poison Burnia, making full use of the advantages of the two armies.

When attacking head-on, the sword army is not as good as the 4th Army, and the rapid assault is not as good as the Hong Army.

According to Pei Chengyi's order, Ling Yunxiao, who personally led the troops to assault, did not provoke the Indian army he encountered on the road. In Pei Chengyi's words, if you can, don't fight, and leave the task of destroying the Indian army to the combat troops behind. The sword army cannot delay any time on the road. If you cannot capture Burnia before the Hongjun, don't brag about the strategic response army being better at fighting assault warfare than the Hegemony Army.
