While our first brigade suffered heavy casualties, the Japanese casualties became even more severe. The first brigade of the 114th Division of the Japanese Army was crippled within three days. After losing its combat effectiveness, it had to be replaced with the second brigade on the fourth day. The second brigade also lost two brigades in one day...com

By the time Dong Zhenbang personally led the main force of the 111th Division to Taungchi, the destruction of the 114th Division of the Japanese army, which had been destroyed, was inevitable.

When the main force of our 111th Division arrived in Tamchi, the 1st Brigade of the 62nd Division of the Japanese Seventh Army also arrived in Tamchi from Mitela, an important town in western Myanmar, to Tamchi for reinforcement.

The main force of the 62nd Division rushed from Mitella to Yangon, the capital of Myanmar, because Yangon, where the 7th Army headquarters and the 121st Division of the 7th Army were located, was currently attacked by an extremely powerful Chinese force that suddenly appeared. The entire Yangon front seemed in danger.

After Dong Zhenbang arrived in Taung-chi, he first learned about the current situation in Taung-chi. After judging the situation in Taung-chi, Dong Zhenbang decided that the 111th Division would still focus on sticking and locally short-term assaults to waste the current Japanese army to death in Taung-chi. At the same time, after the 112th Division that was rushing to arrive, it formed an encirclement of this part of the enemy and completely eliminated the enemy.

To this end, Dong Zhenbang adjusted the deployment of the 111th Division, with the Second Brigade and the direct troops of the Division serving as frontal blocking, the Third Brigade was responsible for side raids, the First Brigade rested and supplemented in the back, and served as the reserve force of the entire division.

The 111th Division came to Tamzhi not only brought enough artillery runs, but also brought a large number of new removable 75mm mountain cannons, and its firepower configuration is no less than that of the current Japanese main division.

Therefore, when the Japanese army launched another attack on our positions on the fifth day, the casualties paid far exceeded those a few days ago. When the People's Liberation Army's dense artillery fire hit the Japanese army, Kawaguchi knew in despair that the People's Liberation Army's reinforcements had arrived and he could no longer attack the channels for contact with Thailand.

The commander of the Hakka Division was also a decisive person. From the evening of the 27th, he withdrew all the remaining troops of the 114th Division and the first brigade of the 62nd Division that came to reinforce the reinforcements to the small town of Taungzhi, and began to deploy new troops outside Taungzhi, actively strengthening the fortifications, and preparing to defend and wait for assistance.

The decision of the commander of the Kawaguchi Division was exactly in line with Dong Zhenbang's appetite, so the 111th Division did not oppress the Japanese army in Taungchi to attack, but only carried out harassment and attacks on the periphery, which made the Japanese army unable to make arrangements calmly.

On July 30, the main force of the 112th Division arrived in Tamzhi and began to encircle the Japanese army from the north and west of Tamzhi. At this point, there was no suspense in the Battle of Tamzhi. The troops at the mouth of the river had become turtles in the jar, waiting for the PLA to slaughter at will.

While the First Army was sieging Taung Chi, Bai Chongxi commanded the remaining troops of the First Army to successfully complete control of the southeastern region of Myanmar and annihilated small Japanese troops scattered all over the country.

Just when Bai Chongxi commanded the First Army to raid across the southern Myanmar line and swept across the Japanese army in southern Myanmar, Yangon, a port city located in the southwestern Indian Ocean and the most important city in Myanmar, has become precarious due to the fierce attacks of our army.

The person responsible for attacking Yangon was the Third and Fourth Division of the People's Liberation Army Taihang Corps, who was personally commanded by Qin Weichang.

It turned out that from July 12, the Taihang Corps mountain troops suddenly left Myanmar and used the leapfrog tactic to directly attack Mandalay, a major center in central Myanmar, cutting off the retreat route of the Eighth Army deployed in eastern Myanmar, forcing the Eighth Army to face the attack of our powerful First Field Army, the First Second Army and the Third Army were attacked by our army through bold long-distance and long-distance penetration, cutting the Japanese army into several small pieces, scattered in the vast mountains in eastern Myanmar, becoming difficult to communicate with each other, and becoming pork on the chopping board, waiting for our army to slaughter.

Similarly, the Japanese army was assigned to the 149th Division in Mandalay. After being besieged by my mountain troops for four days, on July 17, it was taken over by the 131st Division and the 132nd Division of the 13th Army, completing the final attack on the remaining soldiers of the 149th Division.

After completing the battlefield handover mission, the main force of the Taihang Corps mountain troops once again implemented the frog jump tactic. With strong helicopter mobility, the Taihang Corps mountain troops, in addition to the Fifth and Sixth Divisions, cooperated with the 121st Division of the 12th Army to directly enter the Manipur, Bangladesh in western Myanmar, to cut off the 100,000 Japanese troops of the 10th Burmese Expedition Army that had entered the Indian plain to fight.

The other third and fourth divisions of the mountain range had nearly 10,000 people. Starting from the 18th, under the command of Qin Weichang, they began to go straight from Mandalay to Yangon, the most important city in Myanmar. In order to cooperate with the mountain troops, the PLA's Ceylon Island Naval Base sent a large number of naval ships from the Ceylon Island Naval Base, and at the same time, the second aircraft carrier formation also rushed from the Strait of Malacca to Yangon.

On July 19, the Yangon troops of the Japanese Seventh Army, which were already bombarded by the powerful air force of the People's Liberation Army, ushered in the darkest day since they sent troops to Myanmar.

More than 12,000 Marines at Ceylon Naval Base landed from the southwest of Yangon and went straight to Yangon city.

Various PLA fighters that took off from the second aircraft carrier and long-range bombers that took off from the southwest of the country began to carry out carpet bombing of Japanese Yangon troops. These are not the most deadly.

The new aircraft that appears in the air and can hover and hover are the terrifying god of death for the Japanese Seventh Army and the 40,000 Japanese troops of the 121st Division. The new armed helicopter armor of the People's Liberation Army is enough to withstand any current machine gun bullets in the Japanese army.

The Japanese anti-aircraft artillery air defense position was destroyed by the People's Liberation Army Air Force as early as the first time. Therefore, a large number of armed helicopters from the mountain troops actually became invincible, hovering over the Japanese army like cheating machines. In places with many people, there was a bombing. In places with few people, the helicopter machine gunner actually practiced some shooting skills.

This battle became a real bloody massacre. The ground personnel of the mountain troops and Marines were like picking peaches, and quickly advanced the troops on the ground. The three-type Chinese assault armored combat vehicles weighing more than ten tons specially used by mountain troops, transported by heavy transport helicopters, also freely in front of the Japanese positions, and became a powerful tool for harvesting Japanese soldiers.

In this way, on July 24, when the Japanese troops mobilized from Mitella and other places to Yangon were still halfway, the 40,000 Japanese troops in Yangon collapsed in front of the powerful attack power of the People's Liberation Army.

Immediately, the mountain troops handed Yangon over to the Marine Corps to be responsible for the final work of cleaning the battlefield and cleaning up the remaining enemies. Under the leadership of Qin Weichang, he once again rushed north. On the 25th, the mountain troops intercepted the 21,000 main force of the 62nd Division of the Japanese army who came to reinforce Yangon on the Zelun line.

The 62nd Japanese Division, which was marching, was panicked by armed helicopters from the air without any preparation.

When it was impossible to organize effective resistance, it was divided into small mountain roads by the powerful Taihang Corps of the People's Liberation Army's Third Mountain Division and Fourth Division. Immediately, Qin Weichang commanded the mountain troops to not give the enemy a chance to breathe, and directly launched a general attack, causing the 20,000 Japanese troops to be wiped out by the mountain troops on the mountain roads in the northern area of ​​Zelun in less than a day.

After annihilated this part of the Japanese army, the mountain group began to divide its troops to fight. Because of its full helicopter combat capability, in southwestern Myanmar, it was like entering a no-man's land. Within five days, it swept across the Bogu, directly to Bosheng, Labuda and other places in southwestern Myanmar. By July 31, the southwestern Indian Ocean coastal areas had already entered the hands of our army.

Compared with the Mountain Group, the First Field Army's results are not inferior.

By July 31, the 114th Division, which was stationed in Taungchi, the Seventh Army of the Japanese Burma and India, was jointly resolved by the 111 and 112th Divisions, and the nearly 100,000 Japanese troops of the Maine Seventh Army in southern Myanmar, were all annihilated.

In addition to the first Army under the direct command of Bai Chongxi and Dong Zhenbang, which achieved a series of major results in the southern Myanmar region, the first and second Army and the first and third Army also achieved brilliant results.

The direct troops of the 8th Army of the Japanese Maine Expeditionary Army and the 137th Mountain Division, which were stationed in Lashio, were actually the first division-level troops to be attacked by our army in the Myanmar War.

After the main forces of the 12th Army Group left Myanmar on July 10, the directly affiliated forces of the 12th Army, the 122nd Division and the 123rd Division, went straight to the Lashi area. After four days of crossing mountains and ridges, the army finally arrived in Lashio on July 13th and began to siege the Lashio enemy.

Starting from July 14th, the Lashio offensive and defensive battle that shocked the world began.

The Lashio area is the key area for the Japanese army to defend. As early as the early stages of the Japanese occupation, Japan began to build a large number of bunkers in the area, and at the same time blocked all dangerous places. It is also the location of the headquarters of the Eighth Army of the Burmese and Indian Expeditionary Army, which can be said to have extremely strict defenses.

When initially formulating the combat plan, Qin Weichang suggested that the First Field Army, the Lashio area be jointly captured by mountain troops and the First Field Army.

However, Lin Shuai considered that Lash was the first battle abroad and should have been completed independently by the First Field Army, so he rejected Qin Weichang's suggestion. At the same time, because the mountain troops jumped into marching at that time and used their maximum long-range attack capabilities, the plan was also released. The mountain troops were divided into two parts, part of them went out of Yangon, and part of them went out of Manipur's plan was also compared with the Military Commission, so Qin Weichang didn't say anything.

At that time, no one expected that the Lashio region eventually became the hardest bone on the battlefield in Myanmar, and almost became the meat grinder for the Chinese and Japanese troops.

In the half month from July 14th, in order to completely wipe out the Japanese army in Lashio, the First Field Army, in addition to the first two divisions and one direct unit, also invested the direct troops of the 133rd Division and a main brigade. After paying the price of killing more than 8,000 people and injuring more than 15,000 people, it wiped out more than 30,000 Japanese troops in Lashio.

Although this battle was finally won, it was the worst victory after the army left Myanmar. For this reason, Lin Shuai was also criticized by the Chairman.

On July 31, the first phase of the Myanmar operation launched by the People's Liberation Army's southwestern troops ended. During this stage, our army destroyed all the Japanese airports and important arsenals in Myanmar and the Indochina Peninsula, and at the same time annihilated the Seventh Army of the Japanese Burma-Indian Expeditionary Force, with the total strength of nearly 200,000 troops. At the same time, it also annihilated nearly 30,000 troops of the 79th Division of the 10th Army, which was stationed on the Manipur line. The Japanese Burma-Indian Expeditionary Force, the 10th Army, and the remaining two divisions of the 10th Army were divided on the Indian plains, losing their way home.

At the same time, the Japanese army sent more than 200,000 troops in the Indian branch of the Southeast Peninsula, which had become grasshoppers after autumn. After our army successfully blocked the Strait of Malacca and the ocean from the front line between Taiwan and the Philippines, this part of the Japanese army, which had lost its logistics supply, had become a real dead son and allowed our army to take it at any time.
