Chapter 78: Malay Peninsula Campaign (Part )
The scene comes to the palace of King Jili.
Admiral Alexander Samuel Winston stood solemnly in front of the throne, reporting the emergency to Her Majesty the Queen.
"Your Majesty, I just received news that Yan Country has officially declared war on our country and has begun attacking our fleet in the Strait of Malacca!"
The queen frowned slightly and asked, "What exactly caused Yan Country to declare war so suddenly?"
The Admiral took a deep breath and replied, "Yan Country demanded to take back half of the revenue rights of the Strait of Malacca, but we firmly disagreed, so they directly launched a war."
The queen's face turned gloomy, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. "It seems that our Jili Kingdom has not started a war for so long that the world has forgotten how powerful we are!"
Her voice was cold, "You are responsible for this matter. You must completely destroy the Yan Kingdom!"
The Admiral bowed slightly and responded, "As you command, Your Majesty."
"But according to the latest battle reports, our fleet in the Strait of Malacca has been almost completely destroyed."
"Even if our main fleet sets out immediately, it will take at least a month to reach the battlefield."
The queen frowned even more tightly, and after a moment of silence, she said, "I don't care about the process, I just want the final result."
"You must find a way to defeat Yan Country as soon as possible and safeguard our country's dignity and interests!"
The Admiral bowed deeply again to show his absolute obedience to the order.
Then he turned and left the palace and began to prepare for this sudden war.
In the end, the three countries of Jili, Lanxi and Windmill formed a joint army.
A total of ten battleships, five aircraft carriers, more than twenty light and heavy cruisers, and other large and small warships totaling more than two hundred were dispatched.
It advanced towards the sea area of Yan Country with great momentum.
When Prussia saw that Girondins and Lancias sent out such a large number of warships.
They also decided to send out their own super battleship, the Prue.
In fact, it was the Yamato battleship sold to them by Yan Country.
In addition, there were more than twenty other warships of various sizes, quietly following the fleets of the Three Kingdoms.
It is still unknown whether their intention is to watch the battle or have other intentions.
The Kingdom of Gili was very dissatisfied with Prussia's behavior and believed that their methods were too despicable.
At the same time, the navies of various countries also participated in this war, but most people were just watching.
Want to witness the world's first modern and largest naval battle.
It didn't take long for the Jili Kingdom's fleet in the Strait of Malacca to be completely destroyed.
Immediately afterwards, Yan State’s army began to land on the island and fight.
The newly formed division has now been changed to a national defense division, and the 3rd, 5th and 11th divisions were dispatched this time.
The 11th Division was composed entirely of women, so it was called the "Women's Army".
These female soldiers were selected from ten national defense divisions because there are always some inconveniences in mixing men and women in the same unit.
So it was decided to set up a separate women's army, which would be easier to manage and would also give these women the opportunity to serve the country.
The troops stationed on the Malay Peninsula included two infantry divisions and seven vassal divisions of the Kingdom of Gyi.
Although Jili State has an advantage in numbers, it is slightly behind Yan State in terms of weapons and equipment.
In addition, these vassal armies had almost no actual combat effectiveness.
Therefore, Yan State’s main target this time is these two infantry divisions of Jili State.
With the order, the first wave of attack began.
The first thing to do is to destroy the defensive positions on the Malay Peninsula, which is the key to subsequent operations.
During this battle, the Kingdom of Jili transferred a large number of troops from the Kingdom of India to strengthen their defense line.
However, Yan State was not intimidated.
Instead, they decided to send out twenty militia regiments, totaling thirty thousand men, to participate in the battle.
These militias were primarily responsible for fighting against vassal troops, and although they might not be as well-trained as the regular army, their equipment was no less impressive.
In fact, even the individual weapons of some powerful countries in the world today cannot compare with these militia groups.
Under the leadership of the commander of the 11th National Defense Division, this group of female soldiers showed tremendous courage and determination.
They were unwilling to be looked down upon by the men, so they rushed directly to the front line and fought bravely.
Their performance was amazing, even more ferocious than those male soldiers.
After just one day of landing on the island, they achieved tremendous results that impressed everyone.
Faced with such an outstanding performance of the women's army, the Third and Fifth Divisions could no longer sit still.
They could not tolerate being surpassed by a group of women, so they rushed to the front of the women's army and tried to prove their strength.
They believe that women should stay at home and take care of their husbands and children, while the battlefield is a man's world.
Such ideas were very common in the society at that time, but these female soldiers broke this traditional concept with practical actions.
The commander of the 11th Division stood on the battlefield. She looked heroic and shouted, "Sisters, in ancient times, there was a beautiful jade who was made a marquis and a prime minister on the battlefield."
"We can do the same. Let those stinky men see that who says women are inferior to men? Women can also hold up half the sky."
"Charge, serve our country." At the command of the division commander, all the female soldiers shouted in unison, their voices resounding through the sky.
Armed with weapons, they charged forward bravely, fearlessly toward the enemy.
"Kill!" The shouts and footsteps of the female warriors intertwined together, forming a powerful force that swept towards the enemy.
The soldiers of the 3rd and 5th Divisions were stunned when they saw this scene in the rear.
A big-headed soldier muttered to himself, "Are these women crazy? Why are they so fierce?"
At this moment, an officer shouted anxiously: "Hurry up, hurry up, pass them, my wife is still in there!"
Other officers also echoed: "Yes, my wife is in there too, let's go!"
As a result, the two friendly armies were also inspired, their morale was greatly boosted, and they pounced on the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains.
At this moment, the three armies and the militia were engaged in a fierce battle with the regular troops and affiliated troops of the Jili Kingdom.
The two sides fought back and forth, neither giving in, and the battle was extremely fierce.
In fact, deep down the Minister of the Army did not want to send the women's army to participate in the battle.
However, the commander of the women's army has a strong desire to prove the strength of herself and the women's army she leads.
Faced with his wife's insistence, the Minister of the Army finally chose to compromise and agreed to her request.
Surprisingly, the commander of this female army division was actually the wife of the Army Minister.
What’s even more interesting is that most of the female members of this all-female army are actually wives of soldiers in the army.
