Xiana Port, densely packed transport ships and merchant ships are waiting to enter the port. Island soldiers in khaki military uniforms disembarked from the ships one by one, lined up under the command of the officers, and then left the pier.
These troops are all troops under the jurisdiction of the Southern Army of the Island Army. The 14th Front Army, the 7th Front Army and the various units of the 18th Front Army are all arriving in Borneo by transport ships and merchant ships, preparing to participate in the war.
There are also fighter planes of the Japanese army air force hovering in the sky. In order to avoid being attacked by the Luftwaffe, the 3rd Air Force and 4th Air Force of the Island Army Air Force have spent a lot of money. Make sure there are dozens of fighter jets in the air at all hours of the day. Once the Luftwaffe dispatches fighter planes, they will dispatch more fighter planes. This also made it impossible for the Luftwaffe to send dive bombers and ground attack aircraft to bomb these transport ships and merchant ships. Simple fighter jets pose little threat to these sea targets.
"Phew!"
A FW-190 fighter jet quickly passed over the sky of Xiana Port. Several Type 1 fighter jets of the Japanese Army Aviation Corps are chasing after them. However, their speed was too slow, and they could only watch the FW-190 fighter jet fly away.
The German Air Force now uses these FW-190 fighter jets to perform reconnaissance missions. Their speed advantage makes it impossible for the island country's army aviation to catch up.
The army of the island country increased its troops to Borneo through Siena Port and Lahad Datu, which made the German 23rd Army very vigilant. After all, although they dealt a devastating blow to the Lantian and Indian front forces in the Battle of Kinabatangan before. However, the islanders will definitely be on guard after suffering this loss. It is almost impossible to replicate such a victory again. Therefore, the next battles will probably be tough ones. In this regard, the 23rd Army did not care about it. Although the Japanese army has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, it is not so easy to truly defeat the 23rd Army. As for the complete annihilation of the 23rd Army, that is even more delusional.
Brunei City, 23rd Army Command. Lieutenant General William Adam was reading the information sent by the Air Force.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, it seems that the islanders are still increasing their troops crazily! They are undoubtedly trying to defeat us through their superiority in strength." Lieutenant General William Adam had a contemptuous smile on his face.
"Yes, General. Although the weapons and equipment of the islanders are not good, their combat effectiveness is still very strong. Especially in night battles, they are very brave and often cause us great losses. If they continue to fight The increase in troops may pose a greater threat to us," said Major General Erwin Vilo.
Lieutenant General William Adam nodded: "The combat courage of the islanders is indeed admirable. However, in the face of great strength, courage cannot make up for the gap in strength. From the beginning, I am worth it. If the islanders attack Borneo with all their strength In the case of Borneo, our 23rd Army alone will not be able to defend here. However, even if we have to evacuate Borneo in the end, we will inflict an unimaginable price on the islanders. Let them know that if you want to make an enemy of the Empire , the consequences will be very serious. I hope that before we evacuate Borneo, we can cause greater losses to the islanders. The Lan-Indian Front Army that destroyed them before is just an appetizer!"
Major General Erwin Willow nodded. He had been worried that after they dealt a devastating blow to the Lantian Army of the Island Army, whether William Adam would change his original idea and want to stick to it Borneo is gone. In that case, I am afraid that the 23rd Army will really be trapped here. Although their strength is very strong, they are undoubtedly still at a disadvantage in the face of the island army that can continuously receive reinforcements. In the end, I am afraid that he was consumed by the army of the island country and died here. Of course, they can also cause great casualties to the island army.
"Keep an eye on the reinforcements of the islanders! When they launch an attack, order our troops to retreat immediately. Leave the entire eastern part of Borneo to them!" Lieutenant General William Adam ordered.
If you want to stick to the eastern part of Borneo, it will undoubtedly make several infantry divisions of the German army have to fight **** battles with the superior army of the island country. In that case, the loss will definitely not be small. Instead of wasting precious troops like that, it is better to take the initiative to retreat and fight another big battle with the army of the island country where the conditions are favorable. In that case, perhaps the possibility of winning is even greater.
"Okay, General." Major General Erwin Willow nodded.
As time went by, more and more troops from the island country army landed on Borneo. On March 26, all the troops of the 14th Front Army, the 7th Front Army and the 18th Front Army of the Island Army had gathered in Siena Port and Lahad Datu. In addition, the 2nd Army, 18th Army, 37th Army, and 38th Army under the Southern Army are also heading to the Philippine Islands from the island country. In order to open up the situation on the Nanyang battlefield, the army of the island country also tried its best to send more troops over.
Under such circumstances, General Hisao Nishio, the commander of the Southern Army, confidently issued an order to attack. He asked the 14th Front, the 7th Front Army and the 18th Front Army to start from Sinar Port and Lahad Datu, sweep across the entire eastern part of Borneo, and eliminate the several infantry divisions deployed by the German army here.
As for the 23rd Armored Division, 221st Mechanized Infantry Division and 222nd Mechanized Infantry Division under the 23rd German Army, they have withdrawn to Brunei after destroying the Lantian Army of the island country. Now in eastern Borneo, there are only five infantry divisions including the 225th Infantry Division and the 228th Infantry Division.
However, the German Army had no plans to fight the island army. After learning that the island army had begun to attack, the German infantry divisions retreated in an orderly manner. They took all the supplies they could and retreated along the road in cars and trucks.
It is almost impossible for the island army, which is traveling on two legs, to catch up with them. It can only watch the German army retreat.
At the same time, perhaps because of the lessons learned by the Lanyin front army, the island army worried about falling into the trap of the German army again. Therefore, they were also cautious when chasing them, for fear of any traps.
This allowed the withdrawal of the German army with little interference. Several infantry divisions safely retreated to the periphery of Brunei City, and began to build positions to prepare for the next battle.
