Chapter 229
: The Burmese army blows up the Moulmein Bridge!
Regarding the matter of the Myanmar Navy Fleet, Prayut said this: “Your Majesty, although the strength of the Myanmar Navy Fleet cannot be underestimated, it is dispensable to us. What matters is not whether we can get this A fleet.”
“The important thing is that the new Myanmar government does not get this fleet.”
In their view, it will take at least several decades for a legion that emerged from the inland Golden Triangle to develop a navy. Even if it is purchased, it will take more than ten or twenty years to initially grow into a capable force. A green-water navy operating offshore.
Therefore, it is best to prevent the legion from getting this fleet to delay the growth of the legion’s navy.
In this way, even if there is a military conflict or even war with the legion in the future, the Siamese army will have a naval advantage. The naval fleet can not only block the coastal waters of Myanmar, but also transport landing troops to conduct landing operations from various locations along the coast of Myanmar.
“But we don’t have an advantage in the air force, so it’s better to introduce the Eagle Country garrison.” Defense Minister Bayi said.
The meeting fell silent, and all parties had their own plans.
Allowing the Eagle Kingdom to restart its military base in Siam will inevitably arouse public opposition, which will reduce the support rate of the current government. The parties supported by Rama X use the reason of opposing the Eagle Kingdom’s military base to win over the people and other parties. He will definitely win the election in October.
Rama X’s political power will be greatly enhanced and the influence of the military will be weakened. If he comes forward and cries in front of the people, he can gain a lot of people’s support.
After all, how could the king make mistakes? It was all those treacherous ministers and traitors who were causing trouble for the court!
The Siamese military believes that it is difficult for the Kingdom of Siam to compete with the Legion with its own strength, and they are unwilling to fight. Siam has developed peacefully for decades, and the military families have made a lot of money. Why fight with a force that is not weak?
But in order to protect their own interests and check the external expansion of the Legion, it is a good choice to introduce the Eagle Nation garrison as they did decades ago and let the Eagle Nation army carry out military strikes in various parts of Myanmar.
As for the resignation of Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha and his cabinet government with a military background…
Sai Lixin, the candidate of the new opposition party with the highest support rate, is also born into a military family. Sai Lixin’s father is an Army Lieutenant General, his mother is the daughter of a former Deputy Minister of Finance, and his father-in-law is also an Air Force Lieutenant General.
No matter how the Kingdom of Siam’s cabinet was messed up, the people who formed the cabinet were all from military backgrounds.
No matter how King Rama X supports newcomers to the throne, they will inevitably have a military background.
This was the status quo of the Kingdom of Siam that lasted for hundreds of years.
Military families hold important positions in the Siamese government and all walks of life, making it difficult for ordinary people to get ahead. Even in some emerging industries, such as the technology industry and the Internet industry, the new generation of young people who have achieved success must have a military background.
While the Supreme Council of the Kingdom of Siam was discussing the introduction of the Eagle Kingdom garrison.
In Myanmar, the Corps has also begun continuous military operations.
Over Mawlamyine, the Legion’s fighter planes continued to carry out indiscriminate bombings on the Myanmar United Government Defense Forces entrenched in the southeastern region of Myanmar.
MiG-29 fighter jets, A-6 Intruder attack aircraft, A-10 Warthog attack aircraft, and Badger bombers continued to bomb cities, military camps, ports, positions and other important facilities occupied by the coalition government defense forces.
The Burmese Army troops west of the Salween River have been basically wiped out. The regiments were combined into the First Brigade and the First Guard Brigade. Two elite troops totaling 20,000 troops launched an attack on the Burmese Army from three directions.
The two offensive forces attacked the Burmese army’s defense line from Highway 8 in the coastal area, and continued to attack the Burmese army in Hpa-an and Madaban counties on the lower reaches of the Salween River.
Another force attacked the Burmese army’s defensive cities, road bridges and other important facilities in the upper reaches of the Salween River from the highway in a straight line.
Madaban County is located opposite Mawlamyine, where the Salween River, Jiying River and Atlan River merge into the sea. The three rivers merged to wash out a large plain area and a three-kilometer-long estuary.
On both sides of the river mouth are Madaban County and Mawlamyine.
The two cities are connected by Highway 8, and the Mawlamyine Bridge is also a famous local building.
But at this time, there was not a single private car in sight on this bridge that used to be bustling with traffic. Burma Army armored vehicles and armed pickup trucks were everywhere abandoned on the bridge.
From time to time, you can see some blown-up Burmese tanks at the bridge ends on both sides of the bridge.
Hundreds of Burmese soldiers are retreating from the bridge into Moulmein in a panic.
Because Madaban County across the bridge has been lost, the main force of the legion has already invaded Madaban County.
Although Madaban County relies on a long and narrow mountain range, the Burmese army has deployed various defensive positions and thousands of troops on it.
However, under the legion’s attack, these defensive positions were bombed by the legion’s air force before they even saw the legion’s ground troops. Various attack aircraft carried out targeted clearings on the ground, first blowing up the Burmese army positions to pieces, and then The infantry of the legion went to finish.
After fighting all the way, the Burmese army on the narrow mountain range was almost completely wiped out. Only a few remaining soldiers fled into the mountains and forests to avoid the army’s search.
The main force of the legion also invaded the urban area of Madaban along Highway 8.
In a park at Qiaotou in Madaban County, a Burmese Army T-72 main battle tank was attacked by the army’s air force when it was retreating from the road. It rushed into the park in a panic.
As a result, he fell into a pond in the park and was unable to extricate himself.
Watching the surrounding comrades fleeing for their lives towards the bridge, a Legion M1A2 main battle tank had appeared at the corner of the road. The Burmese army tank soldiers quickly gave up saving the tank, climbed out of the tank, and hurriedly moved towards the surrounding areas. Escape.
Not far after these tank soldiers ran out, the Legion’s M1A2 main battle tank hit the T-72 tank that was stuck in the pond with an armor-piercing round.
The tank was reduced to a burning mass of steel waste on the spot.
“｀. Blow up the bridge! Blow up the bridge!” On the Burmese army position on the east side of the Moulmein Bridge, a Burmese army major battalion commander responsible for garrisoning the Moulmein Bridge was confronting his soldiers. yelled.
On the east side of the Moulmein Bridge, the Burmese army has deployed numerous positions, building defense lines based on city buildings and streets.
However, they lacked anti-aircraft weapons and were bombarded by the legion. Every position was dark, the surrounding houses were blown down, and the bodies of many Burmese soldiers fell to the ground.
The Burmese soldier who was scolded by his superior was holding a detonator in his hand. Looking at the Burmese soldiers who were frantically running for their lives on the bridge, they couldn’t bear to stop.
The major battalion commander kicked the soldier away, picked up the detonator, and pressed it suddenly.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
Dozens of explosion points that had been installed on the Moulmein Bridge were detonated instantly. The successive explosions not only destroyed the three-kilometer-long bridge, but also killed hundreds of Burmese soldiers on the bridge who had no time to retreat. Got it! .
