: Siam Naval Base Pattaya!
At the same time that the First Air Assault Brigade of the Qin Army launched an airborne operation against Khon Kaen, a strategic location in the northeastern region of Siam.
The First Fleet of the Qin Royal Navy cruising in the Gulf of Siam is also actively preparing for landing operations.
As early as when the Qin Empire’s Supreme Strategic Conference formulated the plan to launch a war against the Kingdom of Siam, the Imperial General Staff formulated various war plans against Siam, including plans to block the Gulf of Siam and launch landing operations against Siam’s coastal cities. .
In this landing operation, the First Fleet of the Navy provided landing cover for the First Brigade of the Marine Corps.
The 1st Marine Brigade is a combat force under the Royal Navy responsible for beach landings. It has a total strength of more than 12,000 people and is equipped with a large number of Grizzly light tanks, amphibious infantry fighting vehicles, M1A2 main battle tanks, etc. Class equipment.
And when the First Fleet went to the Gulf of Siam to conduct the “500” sea blockade, there was a 20,000-ton dock landing ship carrying more than 600 Marines as the vanguard force.
In the following days, the subsequent transport fleet also brought five Marine battalions, totaling more than 6,000 Marines, as well as a large amount of war supplies.
When the Southern Military District of the Empire was preparing to encircle Manchester, the capital of Siam, and dispatched an air assault brigade to conduct airborne operations against the Northeastern Military District of Siam, the Imperial Ministry of Defense also ordered the Navy’s First Fleet to cover the Marine Corps’ landing operation in Pattaya. .
Pattaya is the second largest port city in Siam. It has a unique Crescent Bay and a deep-water port. It is also a special economic zone in Siam. It has developed rapidly in recent decades and has a population of nearly one million.
At the same time, Pattaya also has a famous title in Southeast Asia and even the entire East Asia – Sex City.
Before the 1970s, Pattaya was just a sparsely populated fishing village, where locals made a living by fishing and growing sweet potatoes.
Later, because of the geographical environment, he was favored by the Eagle Nation. As one of the Eagle Nation’s military bases in Siam, a military base was built, and the Eagle Nation Marine Corps was stationed there for a long time. It served as one of the Eagle Nation’s outposts in Southeast Asia for the invasion of South Vietnam. one.
As we all know, where there is an Eagle Army, various black industries tend to breed.
In order to provide various services to Eagle Nation soldiers, the Siamese government organized legal sex workers and concentrated them near the Eagle Nation military base.
This kind of ‘trading village’ is not only found in Siam, but also in countries like Nan Bang, Japan and even Luzon that were colonized and stationed by the Eagle Kingdom. They have become puppet governments supported by the Eagle Kingdom to win over the Eagle Kingdom’s army. A policy is maintained for a long time.
Later, the Eagle Nation people withdrew from South Vietnam and left in despair, leaving behind a lot of mess, including various ‘trading villages’ around the Eagle Nation military base.
Once these ‘trading villages’ allow their people to flow into society, they will inevitably have a lot of impact and will take a long time to eliminate.
So the Siamese government gathered these people, transported them to Pattaya, and developed Pattaya as a tourist city.
Today, Pattaya is not only a famous tourist city and the second largest port in Siam, but also a famous sex capital in Southeast Asia. Among the nearly one million permanent residents, there are more than 200,000 sex workers.
Nowadays, this prosperous Siamese ‘city that never sleeps’ has become much more desolate due to the impact of the war. In the past, the beach of Pattaya’s Crescent Bay was full of tourists wearing shorts and bikinis sunbathing. , or play in the offshore waters.
There are also various shops and food stalls along the coastal streets, with a wide variety of products attracting tourists from all over the world.
Various cruise ships and ships come and go in Crescent Bay, and the city is prosperous.
And now.
Buzz buzz——
In the sky, several Qin Navy carrier-based bombers and attack aircraft flew over the city of Pattaya. The city on the ground was in tatters everywhere. Many government agency buildings, communication base stations, and power facilities were bombed, and there was thick smoke in the city. Roll.
In Crescent Bay, a Qin frigate was cruising on the sea, seeming to be detecting the surrounding waters.
Further away, you can still vaguely see the vague shadows of some warships on the sea level.
In this landing operation, the First Fleet of the Royal Navy of Qin first dispatched reconnaissance drones to conduct reconnaissance on Pattaya and the three inhabited islands outside the bay.
Koh Pai Island, Koh Xichang Island, and Koh Lan Island.
These three larger islands are located about 30 kilometers to 50 kilometers outside Pattaya Bay. They form a barrier to protect Pattaya Bay, allowing this bay to have a good deep water area and at the same time, the sea is relatively calm. 0.
When the Eagle Kingdom stationed troops here in the past, they still deployed soldiers and built fortifications on these three islands.
Later, after the Eagle Kingdom withdrew, the Siamese army took over these military fortifications and sent soldiers to garrison the three islands.
With tourism development in the past thirty years, Pattaya has gradually become an international city, ranking among the top 500 in the global tourism rankings.
The three islands were also open to ordinary people and tourists and became local tourist attractions. The number of Siamese soldiers stationed on the three islands was reduced again and again. In the end, only more than 30 troops were retained on each island. .
On Kolan Island, a platoon-level combat unit of the Qin Marine Corps successfully landed on a hovercraft under the cover of carrier-based attack aircraft, and then occupied the island, which covers an area of less than four square kilometers.
This island has long been developed into one of Pattaya’s tourist attractions. There are more than a thousand residents on the island, who mainly make a living by providing tourism services and cultivating seafood.
The Siamese army was stationed on a low hill in the middle of the island.
There are defense fortifications left over from the time when the Eagle Kingdom was stationed here, but they were in disrepair. Before the Qin Marine Corps launched the landing, they were precision bombed by navy carrier-based attack aircraft and bombers.
Ten of the more than 30 Siamese soldiers stationed on Koh Lan Island were killed, and the remaining more than 20 people were injured. Before the Qin soldiers rushed to the top of the mountain, they hung up on the top of the mountain 2.5. white flag.
“Platoon leader, do you think the Siamese military port can be seen here?” On the highest hill on Koh Lan Island, deputy platoon leader Feng Shi stood on the top of the fortifications, taking down the Siamese flag from the flagpole and looking out. In the distance, only some outlines of the city could be seen more than 20 kilometers away, and he asked the platoon leader beside him.
“The Pattaya military port is in the north, opposite the Xichang Island where the third platoon is responsible for attacking. You can’t see it anywhere.” Cheng Hongbao kicked him angrily and said, “Across from us is the main city of Pattaya, Southeast Asia. Xingdu.”
“Platoon leader!” While the two were talking, a soldier trotted up, stood at attention and saluted, and said: “Report to the platoon leader! The supporting infantry fighting vehicles encountered people’s obstruction at the bottom of the mountain!”
“It’s a Chinese female tourist!” the soldier added.
“Ah?” Cheng Hongbao and Feng Shi looked at each other.
