: Battle of Naypyitaw!
On a road leading to Naypyitaw.
Troops from the legion are continuously heading to Naypyitaw, and various military trucks carry various supplies and ammunition to support the most tense front line.
On the highway, there were burning cars everywhere, and there were some tanks that had been disabled by legion fighter planes on both sides of the road. They were scattered everywhere.
Because of the spread of the war, there are no ordinary people driving anymore, only legion tanks and military trucks are driving.
The legion’s troops were only driving on one side of the road. On the other side, there was a group of dejected captured Burmese soldiers. Three or four people were lined up in a row, scattered, and the team was marching towards the rear with their hips stretched out.
On a military jeep, Yang Wenlong, the commander of the third synthetic brigade, frowned as he looked at the Burmese army prisoners walking on the road with no end of the line in sight.
“How many troops have the Burmese army assembled in Naypyitaw?” Yang Wenlong looked at one of his adjutants and asked, his eyebrows twisted into a line.
He led the third synthetic brigade to support the front line. According to the current military intelligence reports obtained, the legion has launched a three-day offensive on Naypyidaw. The vanguard troops have advanced to the main city and completed the encirclement strategy of Naypyidaw.
However, the problem of capturing 01 prisoners is also highlighted.
Since entering the Sitang Valley where the Burmese army’s capital Naypyidaw is located, the regiment has been fighting all the time, and Burmese soldiers are stationed in almost every village.
Although these Burmese defense lines quickly collapsed under the legion’s powerful offensive, the legion’s advance was not greatly hindered.
However, more and more Burmese soldiers are being captured. The number of captured prisoners roughly reported by the First Synthetic Brigade alone is 50,000 to 60,000.
“Brigadier Commander, according to the interrogation of the Burmese Army prisoners by the frontline troops, except for some of the Burmese Army mobile troops and local garrison troops, the rest are reserve troops recruited just a month ago.”
“According to the captured commander of the 20th Motorized Infantry Division of the Myanmar Army, these reserves include approximately 12 full reserve divisions, with at least 100,000 people.”
“According to reports from friendly forces attacking Meiktila and Toungoo, we can know that the Burmese army has deployed at least 150,000 regular troops and 100,000 regular troops on the core defense line of Meiktila-Naypyitaw-Toungoo. Reserve.”
Yang Wenlong made some calculations and said, “That means a minimum of 250,000 troops are guaranteed.”
The adjutant nodded and said: “Yes, brigade commander, and these 250,000 troops are already the last mobile force that the Burmese army can mobilize. The remaining troops must guard against the attack of the coalition government defense forces on the north and south lines. ”
While they were talking, the convoy that the jeep was in had arrived at the sentry post at a half-bunker stronghold on the front line.
Yang Wenlong got off the car, and the adjutant came forward with the documents to negotiate with the legion soldiers standing guard. Soon the gate of the guard post opened and Yang Wenlong walked in.
Under the leadership of an officer, Yang Wenlong came to the underground headquarters of this semi-bunker stronghold.
“Commander! Yang Wenlong of the Third Synthetic Brigade! Reporting to you!” Yang Wenlong led his officers of the Third Synthetic Brigade to salute Xu Qian.
“Thank you for your hard work.” Xu Qian turned around and saluted with a military salute.
“How do you feel on the road?” Xu Qian waved to Yang Wenlong, asking him to come to him, and asked with a smile.
Yang Wenlong said: “The troops are advancing very fast, but there are too many prisoners. We need to allocate some personnel to guard them, especially those Burmese army officers, who must be held separately.”
Xu Qian nodded: “Well, that’s the case. Our offensive put a lot of pressure on the Burmese army. Now they have no place to defend outside Naypyitaw, and the main forces have withdrawn into the city.”
“According to our intelligence, excluding the 100,000 Burma Army troops in Meiktila and Taungoo, the Burmese Army has about 150,000 troops in Naypyitaw, of which 100,000 are newly formed reserves with very low combat effectiveness. Now the Burma Army We killed about 10,000 people and captured more than 70,000 people.”
Yang Wenlong said: “In other words, there are about 60,000 defeated soldiers left in the main city of Naypyidaw.”
Xu Qian pointed at the map and said: “Now we have basically confirmed that important figures in the Myanmar military government and most of the senior generals in the military, including Mindon Lai, are in Naypyitaw City. escape.”
The Legion’s offensive was like fire and it occupied air superiority. The Burmese military government in Naypyidaw had no time to escape, so it was attacked by the Legion from both sides and surrounded Naypyitaw.
This gave the Legion the opportunity to destroy the highest command of the Burmese Army in one fell swoop and wipe out all the highest administrative agencies of the Burmese government.
“I need you to lead the third combined brigade to attack the southern city of Naypyitaw.” Xu Qian made a gesture on the map.
Yang Wenlong looked around and saw that the map on the table was a map of the Xitang Valley including Naypyitaw.
On the map, various parts of the Sithang Valley have been occupied by the legion. The Myanmar Army’s military strongholds and defense lines in the Sithang Valley have been penetrated by the legion one after another.
The remaining Burmese troops have retreated into the main city of Naypyitaw, trying to rely on the city for final resistance.
In the Sithang Valley where Naypyitaw is located, Meiktila City at the northern exit and Taungoo City at the southern exit are being attacked by the army. Even if the Burmese army in Naypyitaw breaks through, they will only be attacked from two sides by the army.
And the east and west sides of the 387 Xitang Valley are the Bago Mountains and the Nongben Mountains, so the Burmese army has nowhere to escape.
“Understood, I will go to the front line to take command.” Yang Wenlong said solemnly.
The two simply exchanged some information about the battle situation, and then Yang Wenlong led his troops south.
With the coordination of the main force of the first combined brigade and the combined third brigade, as well as some guard units, the Naypyidaw Battle Corps has currently invested more than 26,000 troops.
Among them, the Corps has invested nearly 200 tanks of various types, more than 1,300 armored vehicles, and more than 250 large-caliber artillery pieces over 100 mm, including more than 40 M270 multiple rocket launchers.
Other infantry fighting vehicles, anti-aircraft vehicles, military trucks, thousands of them.
The Air Force has long maintained an attack aircraft group, a fighter group, a bomber group, an armed helicopter group and a transport helicopter group to provide air support for the Naypyitaw campaign.
In outer space, two military satellites that have just been put into use are also playing their roles.
Low-altitude drones, high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, and outer space military satellites. With such multiple reconnaissance methods, all deployments of the Burmese army have no way to hide them from the eyes of the army.
And this is the ninth day of the legion’s attack on the Burmese army, and the third day of the Naypyidaw Battle! .
