Years of the Republic of China 1913

"God bless Russia! Long live Her Majesty! Long live the Empire!"

"Long live!"

It seems that the power of God is stronger than the so-called "for the motherland! For victory!", the morale of the Russian Imperial Government Army was high, and they launched a fierce counterattack against the retreating Soviet Red Army.Even some soldiers who were temporarily unarmed rushed out after the counter-attack troops, picking up the rifles left by the opponents on the ground while rushing along the way, pulling the bolts and shooting bullets one after another at the enemy's back.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the army has been defeated like a mountain. Contrary to the situation last night, the offensive and defensive sides in the current position are almost completely lost.What is even more unbelievable is that due to the unexpected situation of the rear artillery position and the sudden collapse of the attacking force, it caused a panic reaction from the rest of the troops around the position. The line of sight at night was blocked, one caused a large number of casualties of the [-]th Infantry Division, and the other caused the cavalry army who had not had time to react in the rear to be in chaos because of the rout of the troops. The rout soldiers who came squeezed off their horses and trampled to death, and some frightened horses ran around, causing even greater chaos, making the entire front unable to organize any resistance at all.

In just ten minutes, the Russian Imperial Government Army completely defeated the Fifth Infantry Division of the Red Army, and at the same time caused huge casualties to the opponent.After regaining some of the original positions, this victory has come without a doubt. [

Whether it was the commander of the Fifth Infantry Division who was released due to the death of the political commissar after being placed under house arrest, or the commanders of the cavalry army, they could not restrain the collapse of the troops at all in this rout.The only thing they can do now is to spread their legs and run away with the defeated troops, and on the way to escape, they must not only be careful of the enemies chasing behind them, but also the comrades around them, if they stumble and fall to the ground.Under the crushing of thousands of feet, even if you don't die from the enemy's feet, you will be trampled into a pulp alive.

The drastic change in the central position and the destruction of the artillery positions in the rear quickly spread to the entire Red Army defense line like an unstoppable torrent.With the defeat of the [-]th Infantry Division and the Cavalry Army, coupled with the explosions of the artillery positions that were gradually dwindling, those extremely violent machine guns continued to press from the rear to the back of the line of defense one after another, making some of the defeats complete. global collapse.

At this time, no Red Army unit could take care of the initial task of encircling and annihilating the enemy.The only thing in the minds of these frontline commanders, including soldiers, is to leave the battlefield as soon as possible.

The plan of encirclement and annihilation completely failed, and even the target of encirclement and annihilation changed from the enemy to himself.If you don't leave the battlefield at this time, I'm afraid everyone will die here.

"Defeated... Defeated..." With the rise of this idea, all the Red Army troops on the entire defense line began to collapse like never before.Although several teams still stood firm under the strong suppression of political cadres, due to the sudden change of the battlefield situation.The Russian imperial government forces in the east launched an attack on each line of defense at the same time. These barely resisting troops did not perform miracles under the opponent's precise artillery fire and infantry charge. be traced.

The artillery group of the Soviet Red Army was almost destroyed. Even if there were still a few artillery pieces from various units, in this situation it was simply impossible to compete with the powerful artillery fire of the Russian Imperial Government Army.Without the artillery suppression of the Soviet Red Army, the artillery group of the Russian Imperial Government Army not only fought fiercely but also accurately.They even continued to move forward according to the progress of the front, swaggeringly firing artillery right under the noses of the fleeing Red Army troops.

This kind of artillery tactic is almost a situation where one side crushes the other. Cannons are well-deservedly called the God of War. Just a few rounds of shelling caused heavy losses to the Red Army units, and at the same time made them flee quickly. Much faster.

The battle has reached this level, and the outcome is already very obvious.The Soviet Red Army, which had been in the upper hand, collapsed thousands of miles away.Abandoning the original position is not counted, and even the weapons, luggage, etc. have all fallen into the hands of the Russian Imperial Government Army. Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers were either killed on the way to escape, or were trampled to death by themselves or bombed to death. Some troops who saw the law to escape, but were unwilling to turn around and fight desperately under the suppression of the political cadres even started internal fighting. After being beaten to death, they threw down their weapons and raised their hands to surrender. In the end, nearly 9 Soviet Red Army (including local armed forces, militias, etc.) died in this battle. Ten thousand people surrendered, and less than 2 escaped.

This was an unprecedented victory for the orthodox government of the Russian Empire in the Russian Civil War. This victory completely broke the balance between the orthodox government of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Red Army.The defeat of the Siberian Front of the Soviet Red Army caused violent turmoil in the Soviet government and the Revolutionary Military Council, and even affected cities and villages in Russia...Those resistance forces that were brutally suppressed by the Soviet government and even wiped out with poison gas reappeared like ashes, which caused great changes in the situation in Russia as a whole.

three days later.The sporadic fighting is completely over.When the final information was sent to Fang Zida, Fang Zida was also taken aback by the result.He never expected that this battle would have such a result, let alone that the entire Soviet Red Army's Siberian Front would suffer such a disastrous defeat.

Commander Tukhachevsky was lightly wounded, Deputy Commander Timoshenko was seriously wounded, Lieutenant General Grigory Ivanovich Kulik of the Artillery flew into the sky with his cannon, even the corpses could not be found, the cavalry Commanders Joseph Rodionovich Apanashenko and Generals Oka Ivanovich Gorodovikov were killed, General Andrei Vasilyevich Khrulev was captured....

According to statistics, only 11 generals of the Soviet Red Army were killed in this battle, including 2 army commanders, 1 artillery commander, 7 division and brigade commanders, plus the captured personnel, almost killing the entire Siberian Front. The top generals of the country were wiped out.

This result, not to mention that Fang Zida was unbelievable when he got the information, even Wu Peifu, the commander of the Zhili Military Region, was shocked.On the one hand, Fang Zida repeatedly confirmed to the front through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the General Staff, and on the other hand, he was shocked by the names of the generals on the casualties list.

When it was finally confirmed that the news was wrong, Fang Zida couldn't help laughing out loud in the office. He never expected that Bai Chongxi and his 78th Regiment were only going to go to the front to practice and take advantage of the opportunity of the Russian Civil War to form an army. In order to prepare for the round of military expansion.Who would have thought that Bai Chongxi and the 78th regiment would give him such a surprise, which was beyond expectation.

"This Bai Jiansheng is not simple...it is really not simple...." Wu Peifu was also unbelievable. When he carefully read the battle report of the 78th regiment, he couldn't help shaking his head and admiring it.

After sighing, Wu Peifu said: "Let me fight this battle. At most, it will be the result of a small victory. Who would have thought that it would be like this. Bai Jiansheng is bold and careful, and he actually took risks in such a situation. I was defeated by him, I can't help but admire it by luck!"

"Ziyu doesn't need to praise him so much. This kid is too courageous. Fortunately, he won the battle. If he loses, I will definitely skin him. The 78th Regiment is the essence of the entire army. How can he be so troublesome!" Fang Zida seemed very angry, and slapped the table loudly.

"Hehe, Bai Jiansheng is brave and resourceful. He is a handsome talent. Zhang Ming, don't be too demanding. Besides, no one will die in a war, and no matter how stable the tactics are, it can't guarantee victory. The general will not give orders to the emperor. Since Bai Jiansheng He is the supreme commander, so of course he has made careful arrangements before the battle begins. I have met this young man a few times. He is a soldier with a brain and a thoughtful mind. "Wu Peifu waved his hand with a smile, but actually helped Bai Chongxi and the others to say something nice.

"You, you, Ziyu just cherishes talents..." Looking at Wu Peifu's appearance, Fang Zida shook his head helplessly. [

"Shang Ming, you are actually not like that. Otherwise, why would you let this kid take the lead?" Wu Peifu gave Fang Zida a meaningful look, and said with a smile.

Fang Zida was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing, Wu Peifu couldn't help laughing too when he saw him laughing.

The two looked at each other and laughed for a while. After a while, Fang Zida lighted a cigar leisurely and asked Wu Peifu, "Brother Ziyu, what do you think will happen next? What is the best arrangement for Siberia?"

Wu Peifu is now the commander-in-chief of the Zhili Military Region and the deputy chief of the general staff. Fang Zida asked this question from the perspective of the general staff. Of course Wu Peifu understood what he meant. After a little consideration, he said: "From a strategic point of view Judging from this, the Soviet Siberian Front Army was almost completely wiped out after World War I, but with the Soviet government's instigation ability, it should not be difficult to organize a new army. Although because of the defeat, the Soviet government will definitely have a lot of pressure. But this kind of pressure is not to the point of crushing them after all. Therefore, to be on the safe side, it is better not to rush westward, after all, compared with the overall strength of the two sides, the Russian Imperial government army is still at a disadvantage."

Fang Zida nodded silently. Wu Peifu's analysis was good, and the situation was indeed the case.And there is another reason that Wu Peifu didn't say, but Fang Zida and he both know that they intend to use this Russian civil war to consume Russia's strength as much as possible, and a quick solution to the Russian civil war is neither in line with the current situation nor in China's interest.
