Beiyang 1917

() "Maxim Markojevich, Colonel, the 13th Federal Infantry Division has been fighting all day today, and you have to cross the river to catch up at such a late hour. You have worked hard all the way... The troops advanced to the temporary camp to prepare for dinner. You can Wash your face and eat a can of beef with me, we are discussing the next action plan, I believe there is a place for you, and the honor of eating three Ukrainian divisions is absolutely indispensable for Voronieri's ace division!" Lu Huanyan returned the salute, stepped forward with a smile on his face and held the hand of the head of the 51st Infantry Regiment, and raised the excited beard of a former Soviet Red Army commander.

..

Here, the orderly from Lu Huanyan's regiment headquartered delivered canned beef and black bread diligently, and another orderly brought face wash water and towels. Bifuluo, who was tired, hungry and sweaty, was in a hurry at the moment of the war. After Colonel Fu and his chief of staff ordered the messengers to inform the troops to rest and eat on the spot, they ate directly at Lu Huanyan's headquarters, while a group of sweaty federal adjutant orderlies were led to eat in a big tent next to the regiment headquarters. , Ren neighing outside the tent for a long time before it stopped.

Lu Huanyan returned to the battle map in front of the tent, held his chin in thought for a while, and then turned around and said, "Everyone, I think that the armored troops will continue along this road going east, and we will make a big encirclement, Hal. The road in the Corfu Forest leads directly to the lake area in the middle reaches of the North Donets River... We simply pushed eastward along the main road... Directly occupied the bridge over the North Donets River and completely cut off the connection to the east of Kharkov ..."

As soon as Lu Huanyan, the head of the regiment, said this, all the generals in the tent were stunned. Liu Yifei, the commander of the 2nd Battalion, murmured, "Should we go straight to the end? This road is at least... 30 kilometers away ...Ukrainians will not run so far along the main road overnight? What's more, the other party will go north or south into the dense forest at any time, and our armored forces really can't use this road..." ..

Tao Dayong, the commander of the 1st Battalion on one side, scratched his head and said, "Commander, I don't understand. Why are we chasing so far? Just to occupy this road bridge over the North Donets River? Our strength is not very strong!"

The chief of staff, Ren Dao, frowned and didn't speak, wondering what Lu Huanyan's strategy was... The less than 10000 troops in his hand came from the armored units of the Federation, the Japanese Army, and the Chinese Army, and the stall was so big How will it end at that time... Could it be that the Ukrainians can throw themselves into the net and turn back from the south to the north?

"Advancing eastward is a wise move to get rid of the entanglement of forests and swamps. The Germans and Ukrainians must have lacked anticipation for our actions. Once we take the bridge over the North Donets River, we will close the eastern Ukrainians to reinforce Hal. The passage of Kharkov also closed the door for the enemy to retreat eastward in Kharkov...the so-called attacking the enemy must save..." Lu Huanyan's thinking was as jumpy as his plan, and the 51st Federal Infantry Regiment on the side Colonel Biflov even stopped to scoop up the can in his hand and looked up blankly at the former enemy commander who had the same rank as himself but commanded an echelon of the coalition forces.

"Kharkov's enemy's attention and eyes are all on the northern battlefield, and the anticipation of the eastern battlefield is insufficient. We occupy the North Donets River Bridge, and we can even establish a second road from Belgorod to Shebekino. The marching and logistics supply line of the first line of Kati, although there is no railway in this line, the road on the right bank of the North Donets River is complete. Opening up this line will make the mobilization and supply of our troops skip the shortcomings of the Huashan road... Once the Luftwaffe returns to the skies over Kharkov, our railways and highways on the northern line must be the main targets of the opponent..."

Lu Huanyan's words echoed in the big tent of the entire regiment headquarters, stupefied a group of subordinates and federal generals who hadn't even thought about it that far, Ren Daoist, chief of staff of the regiment, finally couldn't help but said,

"Regimental Commander... Lieutenant General Daba and the former enemy headquarters gave us the task of the second echelon to eat up three Ukrainian infantry divisions. I am afraid that it is not appropriate for us to rush eastward like a rabbit, and the logistics support is so long. , maybe it will give the German-Ukrainian coalition forces an opportunity... What if the other party cuts off our retreat? We have a total of 2 people, and the number of Ukrainian national troops is more than two and a half times ours..."

The words of the chief of staff of the regiment seemed to resonate with the generals. At least Colonel Biflov of the 51st Federal Infantry Regiment nodded and then lowered his head to deal with the canned beef in his hand... He muttered in his heart that people are better than others. I'm so angry, I have to throw away the goods, not to say that the logistics support of the coalition forces treats everyone equally, but the canned beef of the Chinese armored forces is enough to make it casually!

"The road is dead, but the people are alive. We blew up the bridge over the Kharkov River to block the enemy's breakthrough. Taking the North Donets River Bridge to the east completely cut off the opponent's chance to make a fuss in the east. , from this fork in the road all the way eastward to the town of Katiba on the left bank of the North Donets River Lake District, it is less than 30 kilometers away. I don’t believe that the Ukrainians can cut off and block all the [-] kilometers of roads... This road will become an artery in the forest, and at the same time it will be the bait for us to mobilize each other..."

Lu Huanyan patiently enlightened the thinking of the crowd, but at the same time turned his eyes to the lower right corner of the map, and said to himself, "It only takes one armored battalion to get through the road to the east... The difficulty lies in the south We can't easily let the three Ukrainian divisions run around...how about sending that unit?"

"Regimental Commander, I think Liu Yifei's 2nd Battalion is still tasked with advancing into the North Donets River. Didn't the main force of the 3rd Ukrainian Infantry Division retreat eastward along the main road... They are now chasing up, and they are sure to catch them before midnight. Those frightened birds..." Ren Dao, the chief of staff of the regiment, thought about it for a long time, thinking that he should take this glorious task away for Liu Yifei's 2nd Battalion first... Otherwise, Tao Dayong's 2st Battalion and Li Shang's [-]rd Battalion would all lose How can Ying eat his own direct line [-] Ying?

In Wang Geng’s previous life, Liu Yifei, the battalion commander of the 2nd Battalion, was formerly known as Futing, with the word Zhuyu, aliased Monk and Xiaoxia, and changed his name to Yifei later. In this time and space in 1918, Liu Yifei changed his name to Baoding Military Academy. Yifei is obviously also a master who wants to soar into the sky with pride, and the old Ming Futing obviously can't keep up with the pace of the new era of the Republic of China, so he abandoned it.
