Chapter 68:Ambush the UK-Dutch Allied Forces

The British Army, which was massing in Borneo, and part of the Dutch Army, had no idea that the British navy had been defeated.

In the early hours of the day of the destruction of the British Far East Fleet, the British Army had left the town where it was stationed and headed in the direction of Pontian.

As a large number of minerals in the Kundian, between the British colonies, the construction of a traffic line, the British Army and the Dutch Army, can only take this road, otherwise, the army in the deep mountains and old forest march, do not talk about Kundian, even if you get there do not know when.

Simple roads, covered with gravel and sand, often have a large number of goods to and from, the road is solid, the march is fast.

In order to be able to quickly defeat the enemy, the British and Dutch forces sent a total of four infantry divisions, with a lot of artillery, as well as horses, tens of thousands of troops, marched for several kilometers.

When the first troops entered the original Dutch colony, the last heavy troops of the march had just started from the town.

Along the way, the British also continued to send the first troops and scouts, but there was no trace of the enemy in front, and even the figures could not be seen.

All the towns that passed through the road were also empty people, and even a dog could not be seen.

The march for several hours in a row, as if the enemy had fled, had also eased the British soldiers.

On the way, the mountain road in the middle of the mountains, not far away is the town of Xilu, the British marching team has gradually slowed down, the front of the front troops also sent a message, there is a fire in the town of Silu.

Soon under the bright sky, the troops began to accelerate.

The combat mission of the Army was to reach Kundian as soon as possible, and under the cover of naval guns, captured Kundian.

Silu was the first major town to visit in Kuntien and the most likely location for enemy troops.

Because there is a large number of iron ore mining around Silus, it is natural to have someone to maintain order in the town, not to mention that these iron ore has always been an industry controlled by the Dutch, the Dutch people are driven out, Fan Yize naturally wants to occupy these iron ore mines.

Silu is a heavy town surrounded by mountains, built in the basin, only narrow mountain roads across, there is no road around to enter.

At this time, the British Army's vanguard, has arrived at the eastern mountain road of Silu, both sides of the mountain road are vegetation weeds, the original trees have been cut down, by the two sides of the mountains in the middle of the road, because the need to cut down trees, more spacious.

On the two sides of the mountain to the top of the mountain, one by one the red police soldiers lurking here, are looking at the British soldiers passing below.

Every move by the Anglo-Dutch forces, from departure to here, was under the watchful eye of the Red Guards.

The red police soldiers who were lurking all the way, using the radio to accurately report the British forward position, in fact, there were ambush positions in the places that the Anglo-Dutch forces passed along the way.

This mountain pass near Silu is only the middle part of the ambush position, and there are ambush of the red police soldiers in several dangerous sections that Silus and the British have long had to pass through.

If it is not the night and the British generality, you should be able to find the barbed wire pulled up along the mountainside along the mountain.

The sky was completely bright, and the British vanguard had reached the outside of the town of Silu.

The British vanguard was still careful, and did not go into the town with a big grin, but divided into scattered and quietly close.

“Bang!”

Criticism of gunfire rang out, and a British soldier about to enter the town was shot down in the head.

The other British soldiers around him instinctively wanted to rush into town, and the number of shots rang out, and one British soldier fell to the ground.

It is not that the British Army is stupid, and the sound of gunshots does not know how to lie down, but this is the case in this era.

The gunfire in the small town of Silu kicked off the battle, and the Anglo-Dutch troops marched for several kilometers, a total of four ambush positions, breaking tens of thousands of Anglo-Dutch forces into several sections.

The first time of the attack, a large number of British and Dutch officers shouted for the soldiers to crouch down and fight back.

At the same time, the attacked coalition forces immediately counterattacked the mountains on both sides.

The British responded the fastest to this, and when attacked, the British Army, which responded, had launched an attack on the mountainside on both sides.

However, the red police soldiers on the mountainside, squatting in the foxhole, there was a shot without a shot to attract hatred, and a large number of ambush soldiers did not participate in the attack.

In order to deal with the Anglo-Dutch forces, the Red Guards Corps sent out an infantry division, and before the Anglo-Dutch coalition was deployed, the 1st Infantry Division had been ambushed in the road, surveyed many times, and laid out defenses.

The shining foxhole is just a bait to attract enemy fire and the direction of attack.

On the high point on both sides of the mountain road, there are ambush of red police soldiers.

Very loose gunfire, the Anglo-Dutch coalition suffered very little damage, but as the coalition approached the mountainside on both sides, it was found that the high barbed wire was intercepted in front of them.

A Dutch officer at the front, waving a command knife, looked at the barbed wire that was standing in front of him with some scorn, and encouraged the soldier behind him: "Our enemy has no means, and it is wishful thinking to stop our army with these little wires."

A large number of Dutch soldiers with rifles in the rear did not have the tension of the previous attack.

"Cover, ready to remove the wire."

The order had just been issued, on the top of the mountain, a heavy machine gun set off the camouflage, a long barrel, 12.7 mm caliber, similar to the shape of the Browning heavy machine gun, in this world, showed a tactful intention.

The dreary machine gunshots, instantly blaring at the same time on the mountains, with a ray of light, fell on the British-Dutch coalition of flesh and blood.

Incomparably bloody instant, the terrible power of heavy machine guns, the easy interruption of the limbs, the splash of blood mist, was the soldiers of this era have seen.

The fire of terror mercilessly reaped the unprepared Anglo-Dutch forces, soldiers who were trying to remove the barbed wire, were instantly torn to pieces, and the powerful bullets shattered their fragile bodies.

Too late to be afraid, too late to fear, instinct lying on the ground, and then trembling and trembling.

The dense machine gun firepower can completely dominate the army of this era, and the artillery on both sides of the rugged terrain cannot be deployed, and the rest is this simple and direct attack.

There were already ambush machine-gun fire points, completely unprepared, and never met with such a terrible attack, the English and the Dutch, all in a throb, full of corpses, and a large number of mournful wounded soldiers.

Horrible fire, murderous attack, blood flowed into the river's mutilated arm, completely defeated the courage of every coalition soldier.
