October 22, 8:25 PM.
Inside a luxurious palace in Bangkok.
Luang Bowen Songkhram was leisurely drinking coffee, with a victory report from the Royal Army on the table, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Prime Minister, the National League for Democracy in North Vietnam is indeed no match for our strongest army in the Southeast Peninsula. Before long, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam will all become our territory." Defense Minister Myeong Adodeh said excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation.
Luang Bowen Songkhan smiled and nodded: "Yes, I really can't wait to see how miserable they are, haha."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Just then, a series of urgent and frantic knocks sounded on the door.
Luang Bowen Songkhan raised an eyebrow, put down his coffee cup, and gestured for the butler to open the door.
An aide strode forward and saluted Luang Pho Bun Songkhram: "Prime Minister! The Vietnamese navy has appeared outside the Gulf of Bangkok!"
"What!!!???"
These words were like a thunderclap in everyone's ears, leaving everyone shocked and incredulous.
"How is this possible! How is this possible! Their navy has only been established for less than two months! And they can already go to sea to fight!???"
Luang Bowen Songkham's face turned extremely ugly, veins bulging on his forehead, and he roared.
Mipon Adud's eyes widened, and he murmured in disbelief, "Unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable..."
Luang Bowen Songkhram grabbed the staff officer by the collar, gritting his teeth: "Where is our navy! Where is our navy?!"
The staff officer was terrified and stammered, "Reporting...reporting to the Prime Minister...we just received news...our navy has gone missing...they haven't appeared in Phnom Penh..."
"Idiots! A bunch of idiots!!"
Luang Por Boon Songkhram was furious. "The army is advancing like a whirlwind, and the navy has disappeared as soon as they set sail! Useless! Utterly useless!"
What Luang Bowen Songkhram didn't know was that his proud navy had been completely wiped out and fed to the fish twenty minutes earlier.
“Mipham!” Luang Bowen Songkhan turned his head and shouted.
Myapocalypse Adulyadej's heart tightened, and he hurriedly walked up to Luang Por Boon Somkhan, saying respectfully, "Prime Minister, please give your instructions."
"Order the Royal Air Force to scramble all its aircraft and sink the Vietnamese navy at all costs!"
Luang Bowen Songkhram spoke calmly, but the fierce and menacing glint in his eyes revealed his anger.
"Yes! As you command!"
Mipham Adud responded and quickly withdrew.
The Royal Thai Air Force is not considered very powerful in the southeastern peninsula, but its numbers are not small.
24 Mitsubishi Ki-30 light bombers, 9 Mitsubishi Ki-21 medium bombers, 25 Hawk 75N fighters, 6 Martin B-10 bombers, and 70 O2U Corsair light bombers, totaling 134 aircraft.
Soon, the Royal Air Force took off, forming what they considered a large bomber formation, and headed south toward the Gulf of Bangkok.
"boom--!"
"Boom! Boom!!"
Off the coast of Bangkok, the 37th and 38th Guard Battalions, with a total of more than 30 coastal defense guns, began to fire fiercely at the sea from the east and west sides, causing the seawater to churn and surge.
The two Brittany-class battleships were hit, and thick smoke and flames immediately billowed into the sky.
"T aimed it!!!"
"Fire!!"
"Break through them all!! Let them know what it means to have plenty to eat!!"
Standing in the command room, Zhang Minghai observed the scene at the horizon through binoculars. When he saw the Brittany-class battleship being hit by the enemy, he was immediately enraged.
He turned to Chen Guoqiang beside him and instructed, "Old Chen, notify all aircraft carriers to send out all their carrier-based fighters, dive bombers, and torpedo bombers and bombard them! There's nowhere left to bomb! Drop the torpedoes into Bangkok! Let them smash that Luang Bowen into oblivion!"
"yes!!"
With Zhang Minghai's command.
Various types of fighter jets from the twenty aircraft carriers slowly took off.
The deck of an aircraft carrier is equipped with 13 D.790 carrier-based fighters, 9 V-156F carrier-based dive bombers, and 6 Bre.810 carrier-based torpedo bombers.
Twenty ships would be equivalent to 260 D.790 carrier-based fighters, 180 V-156F carrier-based dive bombers, and 120 Bre.810 carrier-based torpedo bombers, not including the aircraft carrier hangar.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang -!"
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang-!!"
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang -!!!"
All the warships of the coastal defense fleet launched a fierce attack on the anti-artillery positions in Phanburi and Pattaya.
Countless shells ripped through the sky, landing with devastating force on the anti-artillery positions.
The violent explosion instantly engulfed the entire position.
"BOOM—!!!"
"BOOM ...
Violent explosions echoed continuously across the anti-aircraft gun positions, destroying more than 30 coastal artillery pieces and killing more than 1,000 people from two battalions on the spot. The remaining survivors were covered in wounds.
"Damn it! You son of a bitch!!"
"You damned northern Vietnamese! I'm going to kill you all!"
A series of hoarse roars echoed throughout the anti-aircraft position. The Thai soldiers were enraged, and in just one salvo, more than 600 soldiers were killed!
Moreover, many more soldiers were affected by the shells, suffering serious injuries or disabilities.
