Years of the Republic of China 1913

Chapter 3 The Battle of Serov 474

In the baron's view, Frunze's front army was a thing of the past, and even more like a dog in the water fleeing in embarrassment.After taking down Surgut, they pursued the victory and joined forces with the Chinese Communist Regiment under the city of Serov. The victory of this battle is just around the corner.

After winning the Battle of Serov, nearly 75 people from the Soviet Red Army's three major fronts were wiped out. This result is enough to determine the final outcome of the entire Russian war.At this time, where did he still have the mind to take a rest in Surgut, his heart had already flown to Serov impatiently.

The baron agreed without thinking about the cooperation problem raised by the Chinese allies. As before, he handed over the flanks and rear of the large army to the Chinese allies, and he will continue to lead the troops forward!forward!Hit the enemy's corpses all the way to Moscow.

"Damn, what kind of war is this called? Our Far East Army is not a logistics force, and the whole time is full of other people eating meat and I drinking soup?"

After negotiating with the baron, Zhang Huchen returned to the group army headquarters to issue tasks to the troops.As soon as he heard the mission arrangement, Feng Yuxiang, deputy commander of the group army and commander of the 39th Division, couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help cursing.

Seeing Feng Yuxiang's anxious expression, Zhang Huchen comforted with a faint smile: "Brother Huanzhang, I also understand your eagerness to fight. To tell you the truth, I, Zhang, who called all the way from the east, felt aggrieved. If you want to say Fighting against Lao Maozi, our Far East Army is the most experienced in the entire National Defense Forces. You must know that our Army Group secretly participated in the war as early as a year before the official start of the war. Whether it is understanding of the opponent or combat capabilities, it can be said that it is in the National Defense Forces. Central is second to none."

Seeing everyone nod their heads again and again.But there was dissatisfaction and grievance in his expression, of course Zhang Huchen understood what everyone was thinking.With the formal war between China and the Soviet Union.The Northwest Army Corps and the Mongolian Army Corps, which were in charge of the main offensive, were fruitful. With the rapid advance of the two major Chinese armies, hundreds of thousands of Red Army troops were wiped out and captured, and large swathes of Soviet land were occupied and liberated.Such a great military exploit has already attracted the attention of the whole world, but at this time, the Far East Army, which was fighting the Soviets more than a year earlier than the two major armies of the Northwest and Mongolia, did not know at all, and mentioned fighting the Frunze Front Army The first thing the outside world thinks of is the Far East "government" army of the Russian Empire.But no one saw that this unit also has one of the most elite units in the Chinese National Defense Forces-the Far East Army.

What is the purpose of the general leading the army?Isn't it just to make contributions, get promoted and make a fortune?Will it even leave a name in the history and be admired by future generations?Compared with the fierce Allied Forces of the National Defense Forces fighting in the west, with the counterattack in Siberia, the entire Chinese Far East Army did nothing at all.

this result.Let everyone's ambitions be like pouring cold water on them. Seeing the friendly army fighting the Red Army in the west and making achievements, while my own side is doing nothing, and I can't even find a chance to face the enemy. I have long been envious. .If this goes on.I'm afraid I won't get any credit for fighting the Far East Army in Moscow. After the war is over, is it possible that I can't stand still while watching others get promoted and get rich? [

"Commander, everyone understands what you said. But it won't work if you keep going on like this! You don't know, the brothers below are so jealous these days. They just watched the Northwest and the Mongolian Army fighting vigorously there. , but what about us? Everything we did along the way was the master’s work, and what we held in our hands were not fire sticks. Who is worse than the other when it comes to fighting.” Throwing the cigarette butt on the ground and stomping it out, he got up and said.

It is also his opportunity for Cao Wenlian to become the commander of the 45th Division. Compared with others, he, a division commander who came up step by step from the top soldier, does not have a deep foundation, so he usually understands his shortcomings. Although he is in charge of the 45th Division, he can The decision-making power in the main military affairs is still in the hands of Zhang Huchen. Cao Wenlian is like Zhang Huchen's chief butler, helping to manage the troops, and has always been very low-key.But today, this honest man couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help complaining to Zhang Huchen.

Zhang Huchen was not angry, he raised his hand and pressed down, signaling everyone to calm down.Then he continued: "Everyone is right. We are no worse than others when it comes to war, but the current situation is indeed a bit embarrassing. Due to some diplomatic and political reasons, you have been wronged. But today I I want to assure everyone here that this kind of grievance will not last forever, and there will be a big battle in a short time, and a fierce battle is about to be fought, and please restrain your troops, prepare for battle, and join the war anytime, anywhere."

"Is it true?!" Feng Yuxiang stood up suddenly, staring at Zhang Huchen and asked: "When? How big is the battle? Is there an order from the General Staff?"

"It won't be long, Brother Huanzhang and everyone, don't worry, the group army has indeed received an official order from the General Staff Headquarters today. As soon as the troops arrive in the Serov area, our Far East Army will officially return to the formation of the Chinese ** regiment, what do you think? , Wait until then, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to fight without a battle?”

"Okay! That's good!" Feng Yuxiang patted his thigh with delighted eyebrows: "Damn! I'm going to be moldy if I go on like this. I heard that Bai Jiansheng got a lot of credit for going to the Mongolian Army. This kid is not mean enough, when we see him, we have to let him raise his hand and give us some work. After all, he is a brother who has swung a spoon in the same pot, not to mention that the 45th Division is still his old army. You should give me some face, right?"

"Hahaha! Don't worry about that. If Bai Jiansheng refuses to give it, I, Zhang Huchen, will hold a gun to his forehead and ask him to do it." Zhang Huchen patted his chest to reassure, causing everyone to roar with laughter.

As expected, Surgut was officially restored in the evening.After the baron commanded troops to capture Surgut, he did not stay too long. Except for some garrison troops, he continued to command the army to pursue the fleeing enemy. On the morning of the third day, he finally surrounded the enemy army west of the Ob River. After a short battle, the troops were wiped out.

"Report Your Excellency, most of the enemy has crossed the Ob River, and it seems that they are continuing to retreat towards the Khanty-Mansiysk area."

"Order the troops to continue the pursuit! Never give the enemy a chance to breathe!"

"Yes!" The division commander in charge of the pursuit thought for a while, and said with some hesitation: "Your Excellency, it may be troublesome if we continue to pursue, because the enemy destroyed the bridge when they retreated, and our heavy equipment must wait for the bridge to be repaired before transporting it across the river. , see if you are here first..."

"How long will it take to repair the bridge?" the baron asked directly, interrupting the other party.

"It will take two or three days at the earliest."

"Let me ask you, how long would it take to build a pontoon bridge with the capabilities of an engineering unit?"

"This... a few pontoon bridges will be completed later today, but your Excellency, pontoon bridges are used to transport heavy equipment. To be on the safe side, I think it's still..." [

"No need!" the baron said decisively: "The enemy is now a bereaved dog. Our most important thing is not any heavy equipment but speed! Do you understand the speed? Besides, Frunze's troops didn't have much weight when he fled in embarrassment all the way. equipment, so I decided to build a pontoon bridge immediately, transport the soldiers across the river as soon as possible, and strive to surround the enemy in the shortest possible time. As for the heavy equipment, the repair of the bridge can be carried out at the same time, and the difference of a few days is not a big problem. The enemy is the most important thing, and the opportunity to fight is fleeting, so we must not miss this opportunity!"

The baron's order could not be questioned, and the sappers quickly sprang into action, erecting pontoons across the river.When it was just dark, the three floating bridges could also be put into use.At this time the baron let the troops advance lightly, crossed the river from the pontoon bridge, and continued to march towards the Khanty-Mansiysk area.

On the second day of crossing the river, the Baron's vanguard gathered on the west bank of the river. At this time, the scouts dispatched reported that the troops of the Frunze Front Army gave up on going to Mann after learning that the Far Eastern "government" army had chased the river bank in the shortest time. Sisk's plan to rest was to turn around and continue fleeing in the direction of Hunter. It seemed that they wanted to run to Hunter in one breath and then retreat directly from Hunter to Serov.
