Beiyang 1917

Chapter 306 Several joys and sorrows

The most unlucky thing was to take the farthest route to attack the [-]st Cavalry Division of the Fourth Army behind Ufa. They lost their way first, and then they were spotted by the reconnaissance plane of the Allied Forces, and followed them all the way to the northeast of Ufa. Within about five kilometers of the railway line, they were bombarded by the opponent's heavy artillery, and then an armored regiment of the coalition army rushed out from along the railway line to chase after it. The large-caliber machine gun on the rotating turret of the armored vehicle was a new type of weapon that the Soviet Red Army had never seen before.upload update

The large-caliber heavy machine guns of 120 wheeled armored vehicles sprayed hot and violent bullet rain. The sky was swept by fighter jets and bombers from two squadrons. The first cavalry division was chased to pieces and suffered heavy casualties. The opponents in the war could not get rid of the chasing armored regiment after withdrawing 30 kilometers all the way, and not only from the northeast of Ufa, but also from the southeast of Ufa, an armored battalion came over, adding up to a total of 160 wheeled vehicles equipped with large-caliber heavy machine guns. In the end, the armored fighting vehicle actually surrounded the remaining 3000 people of the First Cavalry Division on a small hillside.

When I saw nearly 1200 heavily armed coalition infantry coming down from the wheeled armored vehicles that surrounded me, and when I saw the enemy planes passing overhead, I couldn't count the number of squadrons, the radio was broken long ago. The remnants of the [-]st Cavalry Division put down their weapons, and the enemy on the other side was not an enemy they could resist. For the lives of the soldiers, and for the enemy who was armed to the teeth, they shouted in Russian on the loudspeaker, "The coalition forces give preferential treatment to prisoners, hand in your guns and don't kill them"!

Vasilyev, commander of the First Cavalry Division of the Fourth Army, who had already suffered three wounds, ordered the remnants of the First Cavalry Division to lay down their weapons and shoot at the opposite center after his political commissar shot himself because of serious injuries and despair. The team surrendered!

When night fell on July 191, 7, the battle in the first phase of the Battle of Ufa fell silent, and the coalition forces fighting with lions and rabbits achieved brilliant results!

Starting at noon on the same day, Li Mingzhong's department, which detoured from the south of Ufa, advanced nearly 100 kilometers, and took down Stellitamak, Ishimbai, Salavat, and Melieu with lightning speed. Ziz and Kumel sets.upload update

Li Mingzhong's Department governs the Cavalry Mixed Brigade of the First Armored Division, the Third Ural Cavalry Division and the Cavalry Wing of the Fourth Japanese Division. The whole army has 25000 people, almost all of them are cavalry. There are almost no decent Soviet Russian garrison troops along the way. Resistance, the main force of the Fourth Army has already gone north to Ufa, and the local people almost dragged their families to Ufa when Petrovich’s Ural Fourth Cavalry Division retreated north, and then retreated to Ufa. East of the Ural Mountains.

What the Fourth Army stayed behind in these places was just some logistics and local troops who followed from the Volga River Basin. The strength of each town was no more than a company, and the least was a platoon. A small number of captured people died in battle, and almost none escaped.

Li Mingzhong only left a cavalry battalion stationed with a radio station in Sterlitamak, and the rest of the troops moved south quickly, preparing to attack from Kumertau the next day and take down Oren, an important town in the southwest between the Ural River Basin and the Kazakh grassland. Fortress, and tied the mouth of the bag in Orenburg and Kulme, closing the road for the Soviet Red Army to withdraw southward in the future.

In the evening of the same day, 3 soldiers from Sun Liangcheng's detachment from the east to the south of the Ural Mountains conquered Ural, an important town at the northern end of the Kazakh grassland, and wiped out an infantry regiment left behind by the Fourth Army. The flag of the Autonomous Republic of Ashkenazi.

Facts were announced last year, but the Arash Autonomous Republic, with few major generals, has always supported Kolchak's All-Russian Provisional Government and the Allied Powers. A Kazakh cavalry regiment was sent to cooperate with this operation.

Also on the evening of July 7, Jiang Hongyu's mixed armored brigade, which detoured from the north, went south from Zainsko along the main road, and took Almetisk 9 kilometers to the south in one go. The group army stayed in the local battalion and drove a nail into Tukhachevsky's back. If the line of Brigoma and Bavley were captured a hundred kilometers further south, Tukhachevsky would be completely cut off. The retreat of the Keenan Cluster.

There is still 170 kilometers to go from Brigoma, Bavly to Tukhachevsky's southern group camped 20000 kilometers southwest of Ufa, unless Tukhachevsky can drop 170 soldiers with severed wrists. The wounded retreated westward overnight, otherwise the [-]-kilometer road would not be covered in three days by the Soviet Russian Red Army Southern Group that had withdrawn from the defeated battle.

In the evening of the same day, after a detour on the north road, the Ural 12nd Cavalry Division and the Japanese No. 100 Cavalry Regiment marched westward along the Kamala River after the detour in Zainsko, and the No. [-] Cavalry Regiment attacked [-] kilometers long and captured Kamala Chistopol, an important town by the river, wiped out a battalion of the Soviet Red Army stationed there.

191年7月9ri19:00乌法城区联军前敌指挥部,当天的联军战斗检讨会。

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I still can't understand why our six infantry divisions on the Ufa defense line didn't take advantage of the victory and pursue it?" The Northwest Group just fought an artillery battle, and sat and watched the five infantry divisions of Tukhachevsky's First Army retreating intact under their noses. Don't mention the awkwardness in your heart!

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, I have the same question. At that time, the Russian Fourth Army on the opposite side of my line of defense had only three infantry divisions understaffed. The morale was extremely low. If you had agreed to let me lead the cavalry division to attack, or Let the three infantry divisions on our defense line also participate in the pursuit, I can guarantee that we can at least annihilate one or two divisions of the opponent! It is even possible to wipe out the opponent's Fourth Army!"

Although Alexander Petrovich's southeast line of defense severely damaged Rzhevsky's Fourth Army in today's battle, the cavalry division still didn't have a chance to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, so I also stood up at this moment to ask what happened .

"You two, the first phase of the Ufa campaign has been won today, which is inseparable from the bloody battle of the Ufa defenders. Lieutenant General Petrovich and Major General Sergey's command of the southeastern defense line is very good. Opposite The Fourth Army lost almost half of its strength. Congratulations! Of course, Pepelyaev's artillery battles on the Northwest Line were also quite good. Great credit!"

The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces and the commander-in-chief of the Ufa campaign, Wang Geng, smiled and raised the champagne glass in his hand. Although the Russians like strong vodka, at this moment when the revolution has not yet succeeded, all the defenders in Ufa are forbidden to drink alcohol. !

Pepelyaev and Petrovich looked at each other helplessly, and had to raise their glasses to signal, and drank the champagne, which was not enjoyable for them at all, in one gulp.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister and Lieutenant General, I will answer this question for you on behalf of the Commander-in-Chief," Utsunomiya Taro, deputy chief of staff of the coalition forces and commander of the Japanese Third Army, said with a smile after taking a sip of the champagne in his hand. <The face of a Japanese army general with a full face.

The commander of the Japanese army Utsunomiya Taro is of course in a good mood. Today Petrovich and Sergey's southeast defense line can defeat the attack of the Soviet Fourth Army. The team's cannons played a decisive role, and Major General Tian Jun, who led a Chinese armored battalion to cooperate with outflanking the Soviet Russian cavalry division, even wiped out the entire opponent with only 160 wheeled armored combat vehicles and the cooperation of the aviation team. A cavalry division.

This time, the generals and soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army fought for the empire's face in front of the Chinese League and the Allied Powers!Utsunomiya Taro even attributed the achievements of the two roundabout troops on the South Route and the North Route to the contributions made by the two Japanese cavalry regiments, completely forgetting that the Ural Cavalry Division and the Chinese Mixed Armored Brigade actually played a greater role .

"Your Excellency Pepelyaev, the victory is gratifying, but don't forget that our heavy artillery is deployed on the riverside highlands in Ufa City, so if Your Excellency Pepelyaev launches a pursuit in the afternoon, leave us With the support of the artillery on the other side, you have four infantry divisions to pursue the opponent's almost intact five infantry divisions and one cavalry division. "

Wang Geng smiled slightly when he heard the words, this Utsunomiya Taro is really a disobedient guy, he would show off in front of the Russians at every opportunity.
