[Text] Chapter [-] Qingqi Advance

------------

At 1918:2 on February 28, 8, the tallest building in the town of Pogranicny in the Primorsky Territory, the clock tower at the top of the Ipgrotekovo station building, finally raised the white flag. At the same time, it joined the war in China In the sight of the telescope of Xu Changlin, commander of the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion of the 19th Brigade of the No.17 Division of the Army, who served as the pioneer of the whole army,

In front of the station gate 2 kilometers away, a bunch of old-fashioned merchants and townspeople seem to be lining up in disorder to welcome the squadron into the town, and hundreds of Cossacks can be seen chaotically withdrawing from their bunkers in the further distance. Going to lead the horse seems to be preparing to evacuate. (download.floor)

Nima!Why don't you delay another 2 minutes, Lao Tzu's cannons are so neatly arranged for nothing, Xu Changlin, the commander of the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, muttered in his stomach while giving orders,

"Notify the brigade commander that the town of Pogranicny has surrendered, and our army will enter the station to take over the defense in 10 minutes!" Then he waved forward and ordered, "The artillery is on guard at the spot, ready to respond at any time, and the company will follow me !"

A total of 10 wheeled armored vehicles from the headquarters of the armored reconnaissance battalion and a company began to move slowly, and soon dispersed into a three-way formation and drove towards the town along the main road. A large cloud of white mist rose from the mouth.

The merchants and residents in the opposite town were still bustling and chaotic and still lined up. Many people were arguing about something with leaflets in their hands, but the entire team of Cossack cavalry had quickly disappeared at the corner of the street.

When Xu Changlin and the first company of his armored reconnaissance battalion approached to less than 500 meters from the town, a Cossack cavalry wearing a black cloak and shouting Ula rushed out of the crowd and rushed towards the lead vehicle of the armored company. With a bright Cossack saber, "Hurrah!!!" Behind them were the stunned Russian residents who were stunned by this sudden turn of events.

Vasilyev, the town mayor and station master in a mink robe, stamped and yelled desperately behind him.

"This Cossack is crazy, charging towards us alone?! Battalion Commander, do you shoot?!" Xu Xiaoge, Xu Changlin's correspondent, pointed the m1 Garland in his hand and asked for instructions.

Before Xu Changlin could speak, there was a clear gunshot from the head of the armored reconnaissance battalion, and the knight on the opposite side fell out on the avenue with man and horse. One man and one horse lay in the middle of the avenue, and the cloak opened under the knight was like a A black tulip that has just bloomed and withered.

"Mother! Who called you to fire the gun! My people told you to throw it all away, and an armored company is afraid of someone else's saber?!" Xu Changlin gritted his teeth with hatred, and this guy opened the top cover of the armored car and leaned out to shout road!

The leading armored vehicle accelerated to the side of the road ahead and stopped. The armored company commander Xu Dabang jumped out from the back door of the vehicle and complained to the soldiers around him.

"You bastard, I told you to beat a horse, why did you even kill someone? Go and see if you're still alive!" The guy kicked the soldier next to him who was carrying an m1 Garland, and turned his head. Shouting grievances to his own battalion commander behind, "Battlefield commander! We are beating horses, and we didn't think of meowing people! This old man is too ungrateful! Don't blame us!"

Here, Xu Changlin's command vehicle speeded up and overtook and caught up. Commander Xu Daying waved his hand in the vehicle and shouted to the vehicle behind, "Be careful!"

After Xu Changlin shouted, he jumped out of the car and came to his first company commander. At this moment, the infantry in a bus that got off from the first car had already spread out in a skirmish circle and put on alert in the direction of the town!

"Company commander, company commander! This guy is not dead, he is still a lieutenant colonel! He just fell and passed out. Let me tell you, I hit a horse!" The little boy with the m1 Garand sniper rifle with a scope The tall soldier found that although the knight who fell on the ground and fell to the ground passed out, there were no bullet holes all over his body, and he was obviously fainted from the fall.

Xu Changlin glared at him for a long time, and rushed to the Cossack knight on the ground a few steps. The Cossack lying on the ground had his eyes closed, his beard was covered with frost, his chest was heaving, and the saber in his hand He fell a few meters away, with the pistol still in the holster on his waist, and looked at the Don horse a few steps away, with a bullet hole on his forehead bleeding out, the horse was obviously dead and could not die again up!

"Unload his gun, ask the health worker to show him, treat him as he should, and arrest him when he wakes up. If he is dead, set up a monument for him here. If he is not dead, he will be treated like the captured Cossack before. The squad is locked together! Fuck, a man who dares to charge me alone is a man!" Xu Changlin grinned, and a communication vehicle modified from a Ford Model T drove over in a hurry, and the brigade commander Zhang Gazi was on top of the vehicle poked his head and yelled:

"Commander Xu! The brigade commander has given you five minutes to take down the town, or he will ask me to ask you if the battalion commander still wants to do it, and say that it is the style of our old sixth brigade!"

"The whole battalion! Battle formation! Head towards the town! Go forward!" Xu Changlin shouted at his soldiers around him holding back his breath!

Lieutenant Colonel of the Tsarist Russian Cavalry, Battalion Commander of the Cossack Don River Cavalry Battalion of the Far Eastern Military Region, the story of the young Alexei who single-handedly charged the "invading" squadron armored unit became a topic that people talked about for a while. Most people said he was crazy, and many people thought Alexei was a hero!

Of course, this is all something to say later. Lieutenant Colonel Alexei who woke up and the group of sentinels who were first captured in the Cossack battalion became the first batch of prisoners of the Chinese participating army on the eastern front.

To say that his deputy battalion commander, Dmitri, is quite a good officer, although the battalion commander ordered him to lead the whole battalion to withdraw to Khabarovsk, this guy is more careful, since the squadron has already For a large-scale attack, the ghost knows if they have already divided into two groups, one south and one north to copy the back of the town. At this time, no matter going north to Khabarovsk or south to Shuangchengzi, the danger is far greater than going east!

The Cossack Cavalry Battalion left the town eastward and arrived at the intersection of the three forks. The guy neither went north nor south, but left the main road and continued eastward, rushing eastward along the frozen river bed, unexpectedly allowing Xu Changlin to go from north to south. The two armored companies that outflanked both rushed to nothing.

However, such a small Cossack battalion is not in the eyes of the brigade commander Zhang Zhijiang. After successfully capturing the town of Pogranicny, the 49th Brigade, which took the lead, accelerated its march. The town mayor and station master Vasilyev, who was wearing a mink fur robe, acted as a guide. The Seventh Brigade rushed south all the way and successively occupied Lipovtsi, Vladimirovka, Camuenki, Wuyi Town, Stepura and other villages and towns.

It is true to say that the Far East is vast and rich in resources. Because there was no Tsarist Russian garrison along the way, the Seventh Brigade advanced very fast. By the evening, the leading armored reconnaissance battalion had advanced 140 kilometers in one day. Stopped on the town of Bosbycheco.

After occupying the small town and the station, Battalion Commander Xu Changlin sent people to release police guards in the direction of Shuangchengzi while setting up positions. Two hours later, the three infantry regiments of the 2th Brigade took the troop train along the road. Drive all the way into the small station along the branch line of the Middle East Railway.

"Brigade Commander! If you want me to say that we rushed all the way into Shuangchengzi by train, why stop here to procrastinate! Our regiment's attack by train will never be slower than Xu Changlin's armored battalion!"

The person who was speaking was Zhang Zhihai, head of Zhang Zhijiang’s 49th Brigade Infantry Regiment, Zhang Zhijiang’s cousin, who graduated from the third infantry department of Baoding Military Academy. In terms of age, he is a full ten years younger than Zhang Zhijiang. The teaching group he joined last year has been promoted from company commander and battalion commander to the current regiment commander. He is very good at leading troops!

"Cut, I stopped here just to carry out what the supervisor said, and carry forward my demeanor of being the king of the army! Why are you in such a hurry, do you want me to ask the supervisor to parachute your regiment headquarters to Vladivostok with v1500 to pay the old man?" Maozi's gun?" Zhang Zhijiang lectured his cousin, but he was more anxious than Zhang Zhihai in his heart, but he refused to show it!

"Brigadier, take it for granted that I don't dare. As long as you dare to order, you don't need to fly. Our regiment dares to take the train all the way to Vladivostok for you! It's only 200 kilometers, and the train will arrive in the middle of the night!" Zhang Zhihai rubbed Let's start a fight!
