In World War II, the story that thousands of Japanese invaders were attacked and eaten by a large number of crocodiles became an anecdote of the war.
Langli Island, located in Myanmar on the east coast of the Bay of Bengal, is famous for its beautiful scenery. The water around the island is as flat as a mirror. There are countless huge "ridges" standing everywhere in the water. In fact, these "ridges" are crocodiles-this is a famous crocodile island where tens of thousands of crocodiles live all the year round. With the help of the peculiar terrain and unique protective colors here, they have been living and reproducing peacefully.
In February 2009, the Pacific War came to an end. The British fleet patrolling the Bay of Bengal intercepted the Japanese aggressor fleet trying to withdraw Japan from the sea. When enemies meet, they are jealous. The sea suddenly filled with smoke. The two sides launched a fierce artillery battle. As the British fleet was far superior to Japanese ships, several Japanese escort gunboats were sunk in a short time. Two transport ships carrying more than 1000 Japanese troops had to rush to the vicinity of Langli Island and land there in an attempt to take Langli Island as a position and strive for reinforcements. The British fleet followed and violently shelled the Japanese army on the island, but the stubborn resistance of the Japanese army on the island still caused great trouble to the British army and failed to end the battle for a long time. On the night of the fierce battle, the commander of the British fleet saw that it was difficult to destroy the Japanese army on the island for a while and decided to study and formulate the battle plan for the next day while blocking the island at sea. After receiving the order, the ship commanders also came to the flagship one after another.
At night, the gunfire died down. The tired Japanese army was lying on the ground. Just as they were preparing to have a good sleep for the next day's battle, all of a sudden, those crocodiles that they didn't notice during the day jumped out of the water, opened their mouths and pounced on them fiercely. What's going on here? It turned out that when Bai Tianying and Japanese navy fought fiercely, the crocodile was scared to hide in the water. After dark, as the tide receded, groups of crocodiles were attracted by the bloody smell of the dead and wounded soldiers on the shore. This is a delicious meal! The exhausted Japanese army was stunned by the sudden fierce attack of crocodiles. Although they tried their best to shoot crocodiles with machine guns and rifles, they could not resist the crocodile's repeated attacks. In an instant, screams and wails resounded throughout the island.
At this time, outside the island, the officers on the British flagship are discussing the battle plan. Suddenly, the sentry on board came to report that the Japanese army on the island suddenly heard fierce gunfire and noisy shouts, which must have been a battle with other troops. This situation made the British army very confused. The commander asked the officer on duty if there were any other troops in contact with the British army. The officer on duty answered no, what should I do? After a little thought, the commander ordered a small boat to explore the situation first.
The east turned pale, and the small boat that went to reconnaissance quickly returned to the flagship report. These scouts who came down from the ship were all pale and frightened. "Sir, all dead, and crocodiles!" The frightened scout said incoherently.
When the British landed on the island, they found that the island was full of Japanese bodies bitten by crocodiles and hundreds of crocodile bodies killed by bullets. The whole island was dyed red with blood. Finally, after the British cleared the battlefield, only 20 surviving Japanese soldiers were found. They were all in shock and kept twitching. It seems that the nerves of these survivors have completely collapsed.
In this way, thanks to the help of crocodiles, the British army wiped out thousands of Japanese troops with no effort.
Story of World War II: "Brainstorming" Derives Alternative "Weapons"
Electrotherapy machine: make German soldiers dizzy
International Online News: 1940 In June, the German Air Force deployed a large number of bombers in Calais, which is less than 100 km from London. The British realized that the Germans had set London as the next air strike target. Soon, British intelligence learned that the Germans had some kind of radio equipment to help the bombers find their targets, which also meant that the Germans
Fully capable of launching a night attack. In desperation, the British Air Force quickly established a radio jamming force code-named "Headache" based on the 80th Wing. However, limited by time and technical factors, the British army could not equip a large number of radio jammers in a short time. At this time, someone put forward a clever way.
The British army requisitioned a large number of high-frequency electrotherapy machines used in hospitals to treat burns, and modified them to make their frequency range coincide with that of German radio transmitters in order to emit radio noise interference. By the end of 10, the 80th Wing of the British Air Force had built 15 such radio jamming stations by using medical electrotherapy machines. It was with these electrotherapy machines that when the victorious German Air Force launched an air raid, the wavelength of the "crutch" beam it relied on was accurately measured by the British army, which was strongly interfered and the bombing effect was greatly reduced. The dream of "seamless saturation bombing" of German high-level officials was broken.
Perfume: avoid soldiers falling behind and missing.
1In August, 942, the US military discovered that the Japanese army had built a military airport on Guadalcanal Island in order to expand the air combat area in the South Pacific. If this airport is put into use, the Japanese army can not only successfully contain the strategic traffic lines of the US military, but also increase the threat of air strikes against the US military. In order to avoid this passive situation, on the afternoon of August 8, the US Marine Corps captured Guadalcanal Airport in one fell swoop under the cover of strong air fire. Naturally, the Japanese army did not want to lose this strategic stronghold, so it launched a fierce battle with the US military. Because the U.S. military has the absolute advantage of sea and air power, the Japanese counterattack can only be carried out at night. However, due to the dense trees and complex terrain in Guadao, the Japanese army did not dare to use lighting equipment when fighting at night, so the communication between them was very difficult, and even the incidents of falling behind and missing often occurred, which greatly hindered the night fighting.
