Age of Rebirth

Chapter 1940 Arrived at a dead end

At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon on September [-], the remaining [-] troops of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region, which had suffered repeated blows and was exhausted, finally saw the crooked river stretching from sky to earth, among the vast hay, at dusk. Under the sun, there is a cool wave of light, as if it is the temptation of limit, beckoning in the distance.

The Soviet soldiers with numb expressions cheered for a while. Although the deadly gunfire continued to sound behind them and on the left and right sides, in the hearts of the Soviet soldiers, as long as they saw the "Selenge River", it was equivalent to seeing the "Selenge River". I hope that as long as we cross the river to the north bank, we can get rid of the lingering sound of guns and artillery, the sound of "Zha Zha" from tank tracks, the soldiers of the independent division who burst out at any time, and the bombs pouring down from the sky above our heads. Can save a life.

On the other side of the river was his motherland, where his relatives were looking forward to his safe return. General Kurykin heaved a long sigh of relief. , Seeing that his boots were covered in dust and mud, and his boots had been broken in several places, he shook his head and smiled wryly at himself.

Poor Comrade Commander, he lost his car on the way back, not to show the spirit of marching on foot with the soldiers and sharing weal and woe, but out of safety considerations. Every military vehicle on board was extremely interested, never stingy and bombed. After two shocking dangers, General Kurykin wisely chose to march on foot.

It is the best security measure to confuse yourself among the soldiers. Those damned Chinese pilots will never be able to identify themselves among tens of thousands of soldiers, just.The general commander who has been sitting in the command car and giving orders has been suffering. [

More than 30 troops marched southward, and after more than ten days, there were only tens of thousands left.Withdrew to the north in embarrassment and suffered repeated blows. The Transcaucasus Military Region has been severely damaged, or in other words, suffered a crushing defeat.Commander Kulygin has always felt like he was in a dream, and it was a nightmare that would accompany him for the rest of his life, even if he withdrew, maybe he was an agent of the All-Soviet Soviet Union.I was waiting for myself in Irkutsk, and the plane that escorted me to Moscow was probably full of fuel, and there was only one prisoner waiting to be punished on it.

But, even so, General Kurykin.I still try my best to bring the remaining troops back. This is the responsibility and obligation of a commander. Now, I finally see that this river that makes me look forward to and sad, there are still dozens of kilometers before I can reach "Se". On the south bank of the Lengge River, across the river, everything is over.All that remains is to wait for Moscow's ruling.

Two hours ago, the troops of the independent division, which were chasing and flanking, finally slowed down the intensity of the attack, allowing the troops to take a breather.The sound of the guns was far away, so it is impossible to guess why the Chinese Tang Qiuli did this

But this is a good thing after all. General Kurygin can understand this situation. After two days and two nights of fighting, continuous pursuit, hard retreat, and even more tiring pursuit, the soldiers of the independent division are also flesh and blood, and they also need Rest, tanks and trucks also need to be refueled, and they have to deal with the continuous deployment of blocking troops, including their own troops, are exhausted, General Kurykin thought with a sigh.

Lieutenant General Zirenenko, chief of staff of the military region, walked to General Kurygin with a tired face, and said, "Comrade Commander, I have already dispatched a regiment of troops to the bank of the Selenge River to determine the location of the pontoon bridge. The location and quantity, so that the troops can be arranged to cross the river at the fastest speed, but our radio station lost contact with the troops responsible for erecting the pontoon bridge five hours ago, and so far, we still haven’t been able to get in touch!”

Speaking of this, Lieutenant General Zirenenko said with a worried face: "Comrade Commander, is it our troops who erected the pontoon bridge, something unexpected happened?"

General Kurykin raised his eyes, which were as heavy as a huge boulder, and asked numbly: "Comrade Chief of Staff, what unexpected situation do you think can happen?"

Chief of Staff Zirenenko hesitated for a moment and replied: "This is my judgment. They were attacked by the Independent Division and were wiped out. Or, the radio station was blown up. They can't contact us!"

Not to mention, Chief of Staff Zirenenko's judgment was quite accurate. He pointed eastward to the No. 11 Brigade Artillery Regiment, and with a slap in the face, the Soviet infantry division headquarters that came to build the bridge, together with The radio station car was blown up into the sky. The division commander and the political commissar, including the entire command organization, were killed in the first time. Then, the third cavalry brigade of the Outer Mongolian Frontier Defense Army repeatedly charged and killed. There was no condition or opportunity at all. General Kurykin reported what had happened.

After hearing Chief of Staff Zirenenko's words, General Kurygin twitched the muscles on his cheeks involuntarily, sighed, and said: "Comrade Chief of Staff, no matter what the situation is, we have no other way to go. There is no pontoon bridge on the river, and the soldiers have to cross the river even if they are wading, otherwise, they will be waiting to be chased by the independent division troops, and all of them will be wiped out. Our Transcaucasus military region is really the end of the entire army, you said , isn't that the case?"

Chief of Staff Zirenenko nodded silently, and then said: "Comrade Commander, the commanders of the various troops have reported that the troops are too tired. Can the troops take a three-day rest when they are temporarily freed from the pursuit of the independent division troops?" 10 minutes, recover your strength, and then cross the river in one go, I am also worried, I am afraid that the soldiers will not be able to support it, especially since we must not have a pontoon bridge, we need to wade!"

Suddenly, General Kurykin jumped up and shouted loudly: "No, absolutely not! Order the troops, no rest, no pause, three 10 minutes of rest, my God, how could these bastards be so childish and dangerous Thinking that those Chinese will appear behind us at any time!"

After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth, and General Kurykin took the lead in striding forward. He had just walked less than three steps, and suddenly there was a burst of intense gunfire from the bank of the Selenge River, which was matched with the faint gunshots coming from behind. The sound of cannons echoed each other, telling General Kurykin and more than 5 Soviet soldiers that the road ahead was blocked!

General Kurykin stopped in his tracks and listened carefully. The gunfire by the river rang for a while, and then fell silent again. He turned his head and looked at Chief of Staff Zirenenko. Frightened, in fact, the two top commanders of the Transcaucasus Military Region suddenly had a bad feeling in their hearts, "The troops of the independent division rushed to the front and blocked the way to retreat!"

However, it seems that they deliberately avoided this desperate judgment. Neither of the two said it out. Thoughts are entangled.

The sudden sound of gunfire did not affect the Soviet army's continued retreat to the "Se" Lengge River. Three or ten minutes later, a group of stumbling figures appeared in front of them like an illusion against the last smoldering clouds in the western sky. .

Chief of Staff Zirenenko recognized at a glance that he was the commander who sent out to the Selenga River to determine the number and location of the pontoon bridges. What happened, why are there guns and guns on the shore, tell me!"

The head of the colonel, with gunpowder smoke all over his face and mud all over his body, looked like a soldier who had just crawled out of a trench. When the chief of staff asked himself, he said in a trembling voice: "Report to the commander, the chief of staff, we There is no retreat, just on the south bank of the "Selenge" River, there are countless independent divisions waiting for us, by the way, there are hundreds of tanks and countless artillery!"

"As soon as our regiment approached the river, it was covered by a burst of violent artillery fire. Then, the infantry of the Independent Division began to attack. My regiment ran back with more than a dozen people, and the rest stayed by the river! "[

"Where's the pontoon bridge! Tell me, have you seen the pontoon bridge?" Chief of Staff Zirnenko grabbed the regimental commander by the collar and shouted hoarsely.

"I didn't see anything on the pontoon! What the hell is there on the pontoon!" The group leader shouted back with a mournful face, as if losing his mind!

A morbid smile emerged from the corner of General Kurykin's mouth, and he said to Chief of Staff Zirenenko: "Comrade Chief of Staff, let go of this poor fellow, he is telling the truth, we were blocked by the troops of the Independent Division The cunning Chinese had set up this trap a long time ago, and the continuous attack for two days and two nights was just to "drive" us to a dead end, and notify all the officers above the division commander to hold a meeting, so we can discuss the way out!"

However, Yang Ketian, who was waiting impatiently, would not give General Kurykin time to study. After swallowing the time and trying it out, he decided to take the initiative to attack. Troops, catch up, there are more than 20 troops, there are only so few Soviet troops, and it will be my turn to eat whoever is enough, I am afraid there will be only a skeleton left, not even a shred of meat!"

"The division pointed out that the Soviet troops retreating to the south bank of the 'Selenge' River stagnated at a distance of [-] kilometers from our blocking line, and seemed to be planning a new conspiracy. In order to ensure the complete annihilation of this Soviet army, I plan to With the existing troops, led by the [-]th Tank Brigade of the Armored Forces, followed by the [-]rd Cavalry Brigade of the Outer Mongolia Frontier Defense Army, and followed by the [-] Mechanized Brigades of the East Pointing Army, they successively launched a full-line attack on the Soviet Army to prevent the night from coming and increasing the difficulty of annihilating the enemy. Whether the above plan is correct or not, please let the teacher comment!"

On this side, I asked the division commander Tang Qiuli to approve his battle plan. Yang Ketian's subordinates were not idle, and all the troops were in an offensive posture. The tank brigade had already started to launch, pressing towards the Soviet army. There are more than 5000 cavalry, the three artillery regiments they belong to, and the muzzles of hundreds of large-caliber howitzers are slowly raised. The artillery puts the cannons into the barrels and looks at the small flag in the commander's hand.

The fatal blow to the last remnants of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region is about to begin!
