Age of Rebirth

Chapter 790 The third final block

Feng Jiwu has not had time to further think and sort out the combat characteristics of the Soviet mechanized large corps that he discovered on the Kazade Wushan Pass battlefield. The Soviet artillery fire began to extend, followed by tank groups and a large number of infantry. Occupied positions, began the attack.

This time, the Soviet tanks and infantry were much more careful. Not to mention the slower attack speed, the number of tanks was significantly reduced, and the infantry increased a lot. They were also intentionally divided into several independent attack directions, and they could form crossfire and support each other. , the front row is the submachine gunners, and the protection of the tanks is much tighter. If the Chinese soldiers come to blow up the tanks again, they will have to pass through the defense line of the Soviet infantry.

Obviously, Zhukov summed up the experience of two days of combat and came up with the best tactics to deal with Chinese soldiers in hand-to-hand combat, avoiding a swarm of group attacks, and Chinese soldiers took advantage of the chaos to rush into the charge formation, and tanks and heavy weapons were useless. Zhukov took great pains , Found an effective way to deal with the squadron.

When the Soviet tanks and infantry tremblingly rushed to the abandoned position of a brigade, they realized that what they encountered was still the situation on the first day. The position of the Chinese defenders was empty, and tens of thousands of cannons were fired. , It was nothing more than turning over the position again and burying the corpses of the comrades who died in battle yesterday. [

The second defensive position was occupied by the Soviet army. The commander of the Seventh Motorized Guards Division immediately reported the good news to Comrade Zhukov, the commander of the group army. Zhukov frowned when he got the report. The Chinese adopted the same method to block the attack. It's a very smart way to take the initiative to withdraw from the blocking position after a day of killing the troops.

To avoid being killed by superior artillery fire, to consume one's own medicine, and to dampen the vigor of the attacking troops, and to use the strength in the next blocking position. Is this the art of war advocated by the Orientals?In any case, the troops still took a step forward. Although they only penetrated about one-fifth of the Kazadewu Pass, it was better than standing still.

Since the Chinese chose this method of attack, Zhukov could only use tons of cannons to blow up the passage bit by bit. However, he could not find the position of the opponent's position before being blocked by the Chinese. "Order, the attacking troops continue to attack Advance, and retreat immediately after being blocked by the squadron." Zhukov issued a completely different order.

Since the Chinese use strategy, I also want to change my tactics and use the advantage of artillery fire to kill the Chinese soldiers who are blocking again on the surface.

The Soviet soldiers who had obviously lost their vigor continued to advance towards the third line of defense, which was the defensive position of the second brigade. This time, the Soviet army did not take a short rest in the occupied position. Feng Jiwu also noticed that Su Subtle changes in the way the army attacked.

He grabbed the phone, "Chen Jishan? You have to pay attention, the Soviet attack this time is different from the previous ones. You can take part of the Soviet tanks and infantry and cut off their connection with the follow-up troops. Watch out for Soviet artillery attacks."

Feng Jiwu had already vaguely sensed that the sharp weapon Zhukov was most likely to use, the Soviet attack, was surprisingly smooth. The striker had gone deep for a long time, but he was still not blocked by the Chinese army. Zhukov was puzzled, could he judge for himself? Wrong?It was the Chinese who withdrew all their troops to the next blocking line of defense.

The sound of guns and artillery at the front suddenly sounded, and Zhukov hurriedly lay down in front of the artillery mirror. What he saw made him extremely annoyed. In the follow-up to the contact of the troops, the Chinese soldiers still came out of the ground, and the intensive firepower made the infantry unable to lift their heads. The Soviet tanks were probably afraid of being beaten these days, and they did not continue to attack.

It was just shelling on the spot. In this way, it became a living target for the squadron's anti-tank weapons. From time to time, tanks were hit, black smoke and flames came out, and they fought for a while. According to the commander's pre-war Order, the blocked Soviet army began to retreat.

Zhukov was almost furious. The tanks and infantry who were cut off from the way back became the shields of the squadron against its own artillery fire. None of the Chinese soldiers in their own small unit can hide in the hidden department.

At this time, the artillery staff turned around and asked: "Comrade Commander, the commander of the artillery group called to ask if the shelling can be carried out according to the original plan?" You ask him, have you seen dozens of our tanks and nearly a thousand soldiers in the bombardment area? If not, give him a rifle and go to the front to participate in the battle yourself!"

The artillery staff officer was stunned. He didn't know that this normal question would cause the comrade commander to be furious. Of course Zhukov knew that the purpose of the artillery commander's request at this time was to sacrifice the surrounded troops and sacrifice nearly a thousand casualties in exchange for The biggest casualty of the squadron, but Zhukov could not make such a decision, nor would he issue such an order. It might be possible to switch to other senior Soviet commanders, but Zhukov could not.

Chen Jishan's Second Brigade was lucky. At this time, most of the brigade's troops were besieging the small Soviet army in a relatively surrounded state. If Zhukov ordered the bombardment, more than half of the second brigade's troops would not be able to return to the defense. Chen Jishan, who was capable of killing, didn't realize that he was facing such a danger.

Feng Jiwu, who was in the headquarters, broke out in a cold sweat. As soon as the blocked Soviet army retreated, he felt that something was wrong. Fortunately, a small number of Soviet tanks and infantry were surrounded. If the Soviet commander Ruthless or unscrupulous, with a bombardment of artillery, the Second Brigade and the surrounded Soviet army will be wiped out together.

He picked up the phone and said: "Chen Jishan, I order you not to love to fight. End the battle within 10 minutes. The troops immediately enter the artillery hole. The besieged Soviet army is wiped out, which is the beginning of the Soviet army's shelling."

It is impossible for Zhukov to see the small troops under siege being eaten by the Chinese like this. He ordered the retreating troops to launch an attack again. The more than 100 Soviet tanks and nearly [-] soldiers who had just retreated to a safe distance had no choice but to be satisfied. Reluctantly resume the attack.

Feng Jiwu's eyes widened, and he muttered: "Damn, what's up with the bastard? This time there's no guns, no cannons, and I've never been afraid of anyone in my troops in such a hand-to-hand battle. Order Chen Jishan to beat up his son severely! The small Soviet troops that are surrounded should not be wiped out immediately, keep him, the Soviets dare not fire.” Several brigade commanders who were watching the battle in the headquarters sighed, “Old man This guy Chen is really a lucky star, there is no cannon, this battle was easy."

The attack of the 300th Division of the Motorized Guards of the Far East of the Soviet Army was simply repelled by Chen Jishan's [-]nd Brigade. Moreover, Chen Jishan also took advantage of it. For the first time in the positional blocking battle, he caught more than [-] soldiers. The Soviet army captured eight tanks. Zhukov saw the attacking troops, like waves ebbing. Flying, the number of soldiers who fell on the attacking road was more than the number of troops trying to rescue, I don't know how many times.

Seeing the small army disappear into the torrent of Chinese, Zhukov slammed the table fiercely, "Order, the artillery group will shell immediately, and the shelling time will be extended by 10 minutes." The soldiers of the Second Brigade who had just entered the artillery hole, Before they could catch their breath, several metal pellets were flying at high speed in the sky, and the screaming sound of piercing the air stimulated their hairs to explode and they couldn't help shivering. [

Immediately, the ground began to tremble violently, and the ears were filled with uninterrupted explosions. This time, the shelling of the Soviet army was particularly fierce and violent. It may be that Zhukov was enraged by the scene just now, and sent the artillery group used to guard against the Chinese artillery , also all used.

The Soviet artillery was able to fight, so they simply took off their shirts and backs, and slammed a big cannon into the barrel of the gun. "Boom!" There was a loud noise, and flames spewed out from the muzzle, killing people with one shot. The cannon screamed and flew towards the squadron's position.

The brigade commanders who watched the battle no longer envied Chen Jishan's good luck. Sure enough, there is no such thing as taking advantage of it for nothing. This bastard is giving old Chen the guns he has accumulated for several rounds at once, enough for this guy to drink One pot, the position of the Second Brigade was completely covered by indistinguishable numbers of bombing points.

The unusually long bombardment did cause unexpected casualties to the Second Brigade. The main ones were individual bomb defense holes, which could not withstand the prolonged bombardment. After the collapse, some soldiers were buried in the soil, the artillery fire extended, and the Soviet army began to attack again. launched a new attack.

Soldiers from the Second Brigade came out of the ground. This time, following the style of the first two troops, they entered hand-to-hand combat from the very beginning. Next to the ground near the Soviet tanks, groups of Chinese soldiers with shining swords suddenly emerged. Before the Soviet submachine gunner could pull the trigger, Leng Sensen's blade had already reached his head.

It was another standard melee with cold weapons. All the senior commanders of the Soviet army felt like they were having a headache. Damn Chinese, wouldn't they change their style of play?Bullying our Soviet Red Army soldiers can't fight bayonets?

The Second Brigade fought all day, and the Seventh Division of the Far East Motorized Guards, who came to attack, was interrupted again and became a tired division that lost its edge. Nai, Zhukov had to replace it with the Second Army of the Far East Red Flag , this ace force.

The experience of the Second Army of the Far East Red Flag was similar to that of the previous troops. On the third day of the fight, the Soviet army occupied nearly half of the Kazadwu Pass. Zhukov used more than 3 troops to The corpses of Soviet soldiers, more than 600 tanks, and 10,000+ tons of guns were laid out step by step.

At this time, Tang Qiuli's two-wing encirclement and encirclement of the 12 Soviet troops commanded by Lieutenant General Vuchkov had been completed. Feng Jiwu, who received the notification, had no worries about the last day of the blocking battle. He didn't want to passively defend anymore, but wanted to use an active attack to end the three-day bloody blocking battle.
