Chapter 221(1/2)

Man Ye, who attacked from south to north, succeeded very smoothly.

The seemingly powerful Hebrew army and the Austro-Hungarian army were beaten to pieces like tofu.

On the first day of the attack, the Ming army broke through three lines of defense of the Hebrews and advanced 35 kilometers.

This is the distance of an attack, not an ordinary march.

On the first day of the offensive, the Ming army killed at least 3,000 Hebrews. They also captured more than 1,000 people, but all of these 1,000 people were killed by the Russian officers who were guarding the prisoners.

When the Hebrews first occupied Ukraine, they committed too many crimes.

These Russian officers were willing to risk being shot to kill these damn Hebrews.

The Ming army had no other options. After all, they could not deal with the Russian officers at will.

It can only be left to the Russian Military Justice Department to decide!

But I estimate that this matter will eventually turn into a minor issue. Just deal with a few officers who have no backing!

The losses of the Ming army were no more than three seriously damaged tanks and eight lightly damaged.

One infantry fighting vehicle was destroyed, 12 were seriously injured, and 21 were slightly injured.

Not a single fighter plane of the Air Force was shot down, but two planes crashed behind the Ming army due to mechanical accidents.

The pilot on the fighter plane successfully challenged and was picked up by the Ming army and returned to the rear.

After a day of fighting, the Ming army suffered a total of ninety-seven casualties. Thirty-one of them were killed, sixty-six were injured, and no one was missing!

For the results achieved by the Ming army, this loss was simply drizzle.

The weapon that caused the greatest losses to the Ming army was landmines.

Those destroyed tanks were also like combat vehicles, and they were all blown up because they were loaded with heavy mines.

However, those injured tanks all had their tracks blown off. After a night of emergency repairs, they could be resurrected with full health the next morning.

In comparison, the Hebrew casualties were real.

Dead people will not come back to life, and injured people will die because they do not receive timely treatment.

There was no other way, so all the wounded soldiers of the Ming army were evacuated by airship, but many of the wounded Hebrew soldiers were abandoned on the battlefield.

God knows how many more of these people will survive after being discovered by the Russian army.

After dark, the Ming army stopped attacking. The Russian army caught up and set up defenses on the Hebrew positions occupied by the Ming army.

Lines of barbed wire were pulled up, and strings of anti-infantry mines were placed.

Finally, mortar firing and towed artillery firing were also conducted.

After marking the shooting points, the Russian army waited in the dark for the Hebrews' counterattack.

The Ming army didn't care about this. They followed the advance order and quickly retreated ten kilometers.

The positions already occupied by the Ming army were pushed up by a large number of Russian troops.

At night, artillery fire rang out from the front all night long.

In addition to providing artillery support, the Ming army did not dispatch a single soldier.

Only some security forces were deployed behind the Russian army.

Man Ye slept very well that night and slept until half past five in the morning before he opened his sleepy eyes.

I took a big sip of hot milk tea, rubbed my face and got off the bed of the command vehicle.

The serviceman outside has prepared breakfast!

Shaomai stuffed with beef, plus a big bowl of mutton soup.

Others may feel tired of eating this for breakfast, but I won't.

Mongolians don’t care if they are tired of eating.

If you have a good stomach, you can cook a large pot of hand-chopped mutton in the morning without any problem.

After eating two kilograms of Shaomai and a large bowl of mutton soup, Man Ye felt that he could kill a tiger.

"How is the situation ahead?" It was already bright and the sun was very dazzling.

Man Ye is not worried about the situation of the troops. He understood everything he needed to know last night.

The attack plan is also prepared in advance, and each unit only needs to execute it.

Man Ye's responsibility is to solve problems when there are problems with the plan.

After fighting mechanized warfare for a year, Man Ye has become accustomed to fighting like this.

"Last night, the Israelis and Russians fought over the position.

The Israelis once captured the surface position, and a large-scale hand-to-hand battle broke out between the two armies.

When the battle reached dawn, part of the Russian army's position was lost. However, before the Israelis had time to expand the breakthrough, our tanks were dispatched.

Now, the frontline troops are already hunting down the fleeing Hebrews. It is estimated that today, it will be another battle to chase away the ducks."

The intelligence officer stood behind Mr. Man, holding a folder and reporting what happened last night.

It sounds simple to hear what he said, but Man Ye can understand it after just thinking about it.

In the face of the Hebrews, who had superior equipment and training, the Russian army actually suffered a great loss. For a long time before this, they did not even receive food.

Ten percent of the brown bread is wood chips and sawdust.

There are even some troops who are so crazy that they have increased this ratio to 20%.

It was not until these people were commanded by the Ming army that the situation improved.

Although their food was not as good as that of the Ming army, they would definitely have enough to eat. Cornmeal pastry was much more delicious than black bread mixed with sawdust.

In addition, the ammunition of the Russian army is also very problematic. The failure rate of ammunition produced by the Russian army arsenal is alarming, and incidents of stinking and exploding chambers often occur.

Some grenades even exploded as soon as the tab was pulled off before they could be thrown.

There is even a saying among the Russian army that more Russian soldiers were killed by Russian ammunition than died on the battlefield.

All this has been unprecedentedly improved after accepting the Ming army's ammunition.

Even so, the Russian army was still weak.

It is very rare to be able to guarantee that you will not flinch in a large-scale hand-to-hand combat.

The Hebrew army had long generally equipped its infantry with revolvers for close combat, which gave them an advantage in hand-to-hand combat.

It is really not easy for the Russian army to hold on.

Before the intelligence officer finished speaking, the roar of fighter jets rang out in the sky.

Kunpeng appears again with a group of Stukas!

Often the appearance of these things would make the retreating Hebrews despair.

Human legs cannot outrun tank tracks, but even if you ride a horse, you cannot outrun an airplane with wings.

"Send an order to the Russian army and ask them to protect our two wings. We will continue to fight north until we meet up with Li Dingguo."

The bottom of the entire Kursk front is only more than two hundred kilometers.

If we go from north to south in this way, it will take three to five days to meet.

"The news from the Third Tank Division is that they advanced fifty kilometers yesterday." the intelligence officer said with some embarrassment.

"What? They actually advanced fifty kilometers?" Master Man stood up immediately after hearing Li Dingguo's advancing speed.

"Yes, the Third Tank Division has advanced fifty kilometers." The intelligence officer took a step back and looked carefully at Man Ye, who was on the verge of going berserk.

It's no wonder that Man Ye looked like this. Li Dingguo of the Third Tank Division didn't have many infantry tanks at all.

The vehicles they used were still old-fashioned armored vehicles with only a 12.7mm machine gun, which was not as powerful as the 25mm rapid-fire cannon on the infantry fighting vehicle.

What made it even more difficult for Mr. Man to get off the stage was that Li Dingguo didn't have many Type IV tanks at all.

They are all type 1, type 2, and type 3 old tanks.

Many of them were given to Li Dingguo after Man Ye changed his clothes and didn't want them anymore.

With these outdated equipment, we were able to advance fifty kilometers a day.

Man Ye, who was fully loaded with troops, not only well-equipped, but also had air superiority in the sky, advanced thirty-five kilometers in one day.

Slap in the face!

This was a slap in the face, and the face was almost swollen.

"Master Man, don't get angry.

What Li Dingguo faced was nothing more than the weak troops of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

They don't have many anti-tank weapons, not even large-caliber machine guns.

Of course Li Dingguo drove fifty kilometers like tofu, and I also heard that the Austro-Hungarian Empire is now in dire straits at home, and even the front lines don't have enough to eat.

The morale of the soldiers was generally low, and the enemy troops usually retreated after a single artillery attack.
