Although there are still some artillery deployed on the back of the hills, they are also unable to avoid attacks from bombers and ground attack aircraft. These aircraft either use ordinary high-explosive bombs or 20mm machine guns to sweep the entire position over and over again, destroying the Russian artillery.

Completely suppressed, and soon the Russian Army responsible for the counterattack discovered that thick smoke was billowing from the rear of their position, and the long-range firepower to support them was almost gone. At this time, they were engaging in a frontal battle with the Chinese Army.

Fight.

Frontal combat is always the favored combat method of the dominant side. When a small number of Russian tanks, surrounded by elite infantry, launched a counterattack against China's steel torrent, the outcome of the battle was already locked. The tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectiles fired by the 75mm artillery fired at 800

Easily tearing apart the opponent's armor at a distance of 300 meters, the tanks lined up in a row destroyed the Russian armored forces that were fighting in a very short period of time.

The number of Russian tanks was too small, and the gap in performance was also huge. After the tank troops were defeated, the remaining infantry had no way to survive. The fire net formed by mortars and machine guns tore apart instantly.

The opponent's attack formation was broken, and a considerable number of Russian officers and soldiers were killed in the first round of fighting, while the remaining people either clung to the ground or could only huddle behind a certain bunker.

The will of the Russians was rapidly consumed under the baptism of the steel storm. Denikin's Guards were worthy of the name of elite, and they did not collapse quickly under such a blow. On the contrary, the Russian officers on the front line tried to use front-line

The remaining troops returned to their positions with supporting fire. At this moment, all hidden weapons were activated.

They either use firepower to suppress the oncoming Russian infantry or launch smoke screens to prevent the opponent's pursuit. The Russian troops and reserves in other positions quickly concentrate on the breakthrough. If the counterattack has been defeated, then the opponent is likely to directly break through the position.

Then a wedge was driven in. This was undoubtedly a precursor to the collapse of the defense line!

"The Clay Bodhisattva can't save himself when he crosses the river, so he has to save others?" Cai E, who was responsible for the direct attack, said with a sneer. His mission was to quickly defeat the enemy in front of him and then attack the already empty Russian defensive positions. As for the troops who were reinforcing,

Cai E was not worried, because the air force would delay their attack. When the Russians climbed to the front line, the towed artillery behind the Chinese Army was already in place. Facing the Russians who might not even have time to launch, Cai E was not at all worried.

Don't worry.

Groups of Sparrowhawk fighter jets were constantly circling over the Russian troops, because time was urgent. The Russians had no time to dig out traffic trenches for large troops to pass. What's more, they also needed to carry heavy equipment such as artillery or heavy machine guns, so

They can only climb out of the trenches and advance in the unsheltered wilderness, which is undoubtedly the best target for the Sparrowhawks carrying various anti-infantry bombs and machine guns, accompanied by the dive of a Sparrowhawk. Three shots

tongue of fire

Sweeping away an advancing Russian army on the opposite side. Several soldiers who had no time to dodge were instantly beaten into pieces by the powerful 12.7mm machine gun. The remaining soldiers quickly scattered to find bunkers. But for those who controlled

For artillerymen who use horses to tow artillery, they must not look for bunkers at this time, otherwise God knows where these frightened animals will throw the artillery cart! So they must risk the opponent's bombing and strafing to control the horses, and this is undoubtedly the best target.

!

Several small anti-infantry bombs exploded in the artillery team behind, sending flying shrapnel and instantly knocking several horses to the ground. The commotion caused by the explosion made the entire artillery team lose control. Even the infantrymen next to them were desperate.

Even upholding it could not stop these frightened horses. To be honest, the damage caused by the several planes hovering in the sky was not great, but the chaos caused and the continuous impact on morale were

However, the attack made it difficult for this unit. Some Russian soldiers tried to set up machine guns to attack these seemingly slow-flying guys, but unfortunately, a simple elevation angle made it impossible for most machine guns to attack those hovering aircraft. Well

It is easy for a few people to add up a few Chinese general-purpose machine guns, and before they can shoot, they are covered with small bombs that fall from the sky like raindrops.

This kind of bomb called cluster bomb is specially used to deal with scattered infantry units. According to the design, this kind of bomb will disintegrate in the air, and then throw out small bombs of about 4kg. This kind of bomb can cover a considerable area with just one shot.

An area of ​​​​of course the idea is beautiful,

The reality is quite sad. Some bombs failed to eject bullets even after they hit the ground. Although some bombs ejected bullets, the distribution of the bullets was really disappointing. In some places, a bunch of small bombs exploded continuously.

, and in some places not a bomb was seen for a long time...

But this kind of attack like a goddess scattering flowers is indeed more effective than those ordinary bombs. Even if it is very immature, these flowers of death scattered in the air will blow up the already dispersed Russian troops even further. At the same time, those equipped with 20mm cannons will even

It’s Shicha’s 37mm gun

Falcons also began to join the ranks of sweeping away the ground, and the powerful 37mm high-explosive bombs became the god of death that reaped the lives of the enemy. Under the turns of attacks and suppression by various aircraft, the Russian reinforcements simply could not arrive on the battlefield on time. Even if they were individual

The troops finally arrived

On the battlefield, they also discarded many of the heavy weapons that accompanied the team. The Russian army, which had lost its artillery and machine guns, could be described as papery when faced with Cai E's attack. Some Russian troops were even directly hit by ferocious firepower.

scattered and completely lost its effect. Guidance in the air

With the cooperation of and cooperation, Cai E's armored troops successfully crushed the opponent's counterattack, directly cut through the main defense line, and drove several wedges into it. The rest was occupied by the infantry, and then continued to develop in depth, and finally

It penetrated the opponent's defense line and divided it.

Although the total strength of the Russian army still had a numerical advantage, Denikin knew that he had been defeated, and his arrangement was of little use against the Chinese army's attack. In this morning's battle, an artillery regiment had been defeated by the opponent.

The air force and counter-artillery firepower were severely damaged, and an armored battalion lost all its money. Coupled with the loss of other technical equipment,

The gap between the Russian army and its opponents will be even greater. Launching a night attack may be one way, but the Chinese Army did not rush forward. The connection between their infantry and armored forces is very good, and they quickly consolidate the position after occupying it.

, to defend against the opponent's possible counterattack. The possibility of winning if the fight continues is very slim, it is just the difference between dying early and dying late.

"Withdraw from Kurgan and leave at night. We can't let the last elite go to waste." After careful consideration, Denikin made a decision that surprised everyone. That was to retreat and fight.

But you can always stop fighting? Peng Yi went deep alone,

The supply line is very long, and the troops themselves are not superior, so the possibility of immediate pursuit is very small. In addition, Denikin feels that Peng Yi's purpose is only to occupy the land rather than eliminate himself. They need to consolidate the occupied areas instead of doing what Mongolia did.

The cavalry rushed over like a swarm.

More importantly, Denikin needs to keep this last elite force. Whether it is protecting the people who follow him or choosing a way out for the future, this force is indispensable. It cannot defeat the Chinese Army, but with this force

At least it can guarantee a stalemate with the Russian Provisional Government troops for a period of time. And if

Without this force, Denikin and the Kolchak group will no longer be able to control the situation. Maybe China can finally push itself to the point of no return. Maybe one day, this elite force will be usurped by those in St. Petersburg.

Or eat it bit by bit. But no matter how bad the ending is, it is still much better than dying now!

Of course, there is another reason that Denikin will not talk about, and that is confusion about the future. He has already determined that his goal cannot be achieved. As long as the Germans are not defeated, then the Russian Provisional Government, with the help of the Germans, will

The country's power can finally eliminate this group of people. The Russian civilians are very war-weary and have no hope of winning against Germany. They can't establish contact with the Allied Powers at all, can't get foreign aid, and behind them are many people.

It's China's pursuit and interception.

In fact, in his heart, he believes that surrendering to China is not impossible. At least the latter will give most people a way to survive. In the future, his life may be better than before the war. There were two negotiations between China and Russia.

In the Second World War, in Denikin's perception, the opponent was not a bloodthirsty massacre.

Husband. As for national feelings? Well, Denikin had to admit that at least half of his troops were of non-Russian ethnicity. They might be Poles, Ukrainians, Belarussians or Cossacks. They felt sorry for the country that once oppressed them.

The country does not miss him, but only hates him.

After making up his mind, Denikin would never hesitate. After leaving his troops behind, the main force began to evacuate that night, but Peng Yi did not immediately pursue him after discovering it. Because he knew that the future combat opponents of this army would be

It will be the Russian Provisional Government rather than the Chinese army. Judging from the telegram, Denikin's deployment of troops to block China has put the front line very tight.

Since the opponent is no longer in the way, Peng Yi, who aims at occupation, will naturally not kill them all. He also hopes that this force can cause trouble to the Russian Provisional Government. At the same time, those who are waiting in the backyard and expand the control area to the north

The mission also makes him tend to avoid unnecessary battles. Soon he will reach the birthplace of the Siberian Railway, and the final territory of China and Russia will stop here!
