Chapter 224 Is there a monthly pass?
"Blasting! Hidden ..."
I don’t know who shouted in the war room of the Semenov headquarters, which scared Semenov. He subconsciously looked up at the person who was calling. Before he could see who was yelling clearly, the explosion sounded almost at the entire Russian front line. The whole earth seemed to be shaking, and shells fell near the Fularki Railway Station where the Semenov headquarters was located! Everything in the headquarters was beating, and all the glass windows were shattered at the same time. The huge explosion sound and the glass scraps flying around were as if the command was hit by the Chinese shells! Everyone in the war room was lying on the ground, and the lantern used for lighting fell to the ground and extinguished. There was also a young staff member who seemed to have never experienced the war on the Russian Western Front screamed!
"O God! We were raided, we are going to be finished!"
This guy who screamed was quite accurate in his judgment on the battle situation! They were indeed almost done with the fall of the White Russian army. Tens of thousands of troops were raided by more than 100,000 enemy troops when they retreated! And on such a snowy night! And when the whole army was panicked, even if the opponent was really a vulnerable opium ghost, he could probably win the battle, right?
The powerful Chinese artillery group was plowing the defense line that the Russian army had worked hard to build. Although most of these Russian soldiers were inexperienced recruits, most of their officer groups came down from the battlefield of World War I! They knew how to build the strongest fortifications. If the Belarusian officers and soldiers were still in their positions, they might be able to hide in the artillery fortifications in the shortest time, so that they would not lose much if the Chinese artillery repeatedly shot them.
It's just that there's no if...
Balls of orange flames rose one after another on the Russian positions. The shock waves of shell explosions blocked the deer fort, threw snow, weapons, and the broken limbs of human bodies into the sky. The Russian officers and soldiers who had just climbed out of the position and were about to retreat to the rear were probably the most miserable people of the night. One by one, 75mm or 150mm shells exploded directly in the crowd, and the pieces of steel roared. They cut their lives unscrupulously and blew the Russian army into pieces! These bandits who had plundered more than 2 million square kilometers of territory from China finally got a lesson they deserve today.
Xiemeinov is worthy of being a general who came down from the battlefield of the world war. He reacted immediately and lay on the ground and shouted orders to the terrified staff under his command.
"Order all troops to stop retreating and return to their respective positions! If the positions are lost, they must also hold on the spot. No step back is allowed!"
"Order the artillery to get off the train immediately and re-deploy the artillery positions, be sure to be quick..."
On such a snowy night, he was raided again when he retreated! Semenov knew that his army could no longer board the train in an orderly manner and retreat towards Hailar! And now the railway station has been bombarded... If he did not pass the railway, how could his tens of thousands of troops retreat to Hailar? If he wanted to escape now, he would only let the Chinese chase him.
So, Semenov's current handling is completely correct, but it's a bit late.
After firing thousands of shells, the Chinese team's artillery group extended its firepower to Fularki Railway Station, including the station building, platform, railway line, railway station warehouse, etc., all of which were all dropped. Although the shelling was not as dense and fierce as when bombarding the Russian front-line positions just now, it also had a very large lethality, which caused chaos in the rear assembly area of the Russian army, which was already in panic!
After the bombardment, as usual, the infantry charged! With the sound of sharp whistles, nearly 20,000 officers and soldiers of the First Army of the National Revolutionary Army in the trenches on the east bank of the Nenjiang River took off their cotton coats, raised the Type 38 rifle with bayonets, and then jumped out of the trenches under the leadership of the lower-level officers who were waving their own promising forces and rushed to the other side of the Nenjiang River.
At present, the tactics of the National Revolutionary Army are actually not very clever. Chang Ruiqing was just a history teacher in his previous life. Although he knew some infantry tactics during World War I and World War II, it was limited to names or certain battle examples, and he did not know how to arrange them. And even if he knew, there was no way to let this army of more than one million people learn and master it in a very short time. Therefore, the current tactics of the National Revolutionary Army are the simplest tactics of the sea of people, which rely on the courage of the large crowds and officers and soldiers to win.
Zhang Yulong, who graduated from the first phase of Huangpu, is now the company commander of the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Division of the First Army. He is a young overseas Chinese who returned from Nanyang and his ancestral home is Wenchang, Guangdong. The company he brought was also recruited from Hainan Island, some of which were Li young men. Not only were they short and dark skin, but they were not very cold-resistant. In order to keep them from cold, before the attack was launched, each officer and soldier got a small cup of Erguotou, and now all the company was intoxicated by two or three points. Therefore, he was brave when charging. More than a hundred people in the company shouted the revolutionary slogan: "Take your mother!" and rushed forward on the ice of Nenjiang! Zhang Yulong, as the company commander, was even the first.
The first person to greet their company was the Russian m1910 machine gun that was fired. When the machine gun sounded, the ** soldiers from Hainan immediately showed a panic look and subconsciously fell to the ground.
Zhang Yulong shouted loudly: "Continue to rush! Don't stay!" Then he pointed his own gun at a few soldiers who seemed to be retreating. The bodies of those people shook at the same time, so they had to grit their teeth and cover their heads to charge! In fact, they didn't need to panic at all. They were still nearly two thousand meters away from the Russian position. At this distance, machine guns could not hit the target at all. The only function of blindly firing was probably to give the other party a name target? It seems that these Russian troops stationed on the position were not elite.
Sure enough, the mortars deployed on the starting position of the China-National Team quickly opened fire. As several groups of fireballs rose from the Russian positions, their machine gun firepower suddenly weakened a lot. Seeing this scene, the charging China-National Team suddenly boosted its morale, and shouted and rushed towards the Russian positions with the sparse rain of bullets.
The hand-to-hand combat between the two sides quickly began on the Russian position. Only then did Zhang Yulong see clearly that his opponents were not the legendary Russians, but the yellow-skinned and dark-haired orientals! But they were all very big.
"It's a traitor! Kill a traitor!"
I don't know who shouted randomly, obviously he mistakenly regarded the Buryat Mongolians as traitors who worked hard by the Russians. Perhaps because he discovered that his opponent was not a real Russian, the morale of Zhang Yulong and his small Hainan soldiers suddenly soared to the extreme. Zhang Yulong raised his hand and shot hard, knocking the yellow-skinned Mongolian White Russian soldiers he met to the ground on the spot. The brothers beside him were not to be outdone. They first roamed guns. Then they used the rifle as a spear and stabbed them at the vital parts of the opponent.
The bloodiness of those Buryat Mongols seemed to be stimulated, although they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of number of people. Often, one Buryat Mongol had to deal with three to four Chinese people, but still fought to the death! However, the weapons they used for hand-to-hand combat seemed not very easy, not long rifles with bayonets, but sharp scimitars (they were cavalry). This weapon was of course good when chopping and slashing down from a high place on the horse's back. However, in the trenches, they had no advantage in facing those Type 38 rifles with a length of nearly 1.7 meters, let alone a scimitar against three or four spear-like rifles.
Zhang Yulong's self-developed bullets have been fired, and he almost killed seven or eight opponents. Now he doesn't know where he picked up a Type 38 rifle, and he and several soldiers under him are besieging a large Mongolian man of 1.8 meters tall! The strength of this Mongolian man is as big as his. Zhang Yulong's rifle touched his scimitar and suddenly felt his mouth numb, so he almost didn't catch it and let the rifle fly out! However, there was still a large gap in his chest. The Mongolian seized the opportunity and slashed it down with another knife.
It was about to take Zhang Yulong into two pieces. A Hainan soldier under his command suddenly rushed over and hugged the Mongolian's back, which made Zhang Yulong escape from his death. The Mongolian reacted very quickly. He quickly pulled out a short knife from his waist and stabbed into the chest of the brave Hainan soldier! The Hainan soldier was only seventeen or eighteen years old this year. Before he could take off his childishness, he screamed and fell down... However, the White Russian soldier of the Mongolian tribe also ushered in his doomsday. Just as he drew his sword and killed people, several bayonets stabbed into his body at the same time!
This kind of battle that was almost one life for one life was launched at the same time in the Russian trenches. Although the attacking Chinese team had an absolute advantage in numbers and had the advantage of raids, the exchange ratio between the two sides was one to one, and the Russian army even had some advantages! However, as more and more Chinese people flocked to the Russian positions, the Buryat Mongols who worked for Belarus were quickly consumed. At this time, the real Russians under Semenov finally reacted. The Cossack soldiers of the brigade had already braved the artillery fire of the Chinese team to counterattack. A bloodier battle was immediately launched on the battlefield on the west bank of the Nenjiang River.
Jiang JShi and his Japanese adviser Muto Nobuyi could no longer sit in the front command post, so he ordered his men to pull out the field phone and took a few staff officers to a hill close to the front with a telescope to watch the battle. Seeing the short Guangdong soldiers breaking into the Russian position in one charge, and using bayonets to fight the Russians (actually Mongolians) who were famous for their fights out of the position, Jiang JShi couldn't help but dance and shout loudly.
The "Russian League" of the Japanese Army, who once studied in the Russian Empire and was also in the Russo-Japanese War, but was a staff officer, the face of Major General Muto Nobuyoshi became complicated.
He knew very well how powerful the Russian army was! Although the Russo-Japanese War ended with Japan's victory, all the Japanese army officers and soldiers who participated in this war knew that it was a real tragic victory! At least the battle on land was like this... The Japanese paid 100,000 athletes' lives and 2 billion yen of military expenses, and killed more than 30,000 Russian soldiers! If it weren't for the great victory of the navy and the revolution in Russia, the loser of that war would have been Japan!
But now, the casualties of Chinese people on the battlefield seem to be similar to those of Russians... Considering that the number of people they invested is three times that of Russians, can we conclude that a Russian soldier could not defeat three Chinese soldiers? If this is the case, how many Chinese soldiers can defeat them? You should know that the Chinese population is seven to eight times that of the Japanese (excluding the Koreans and Taiwanese), and the National Government seems to have initially established a national mobilization system, allowing them to form a million troops in just a few months, if the National Government ruled the entire China...
Thinking of this, this man who used more than 10,000 Japanese troops to repel him in history, uh, probably scared away General Zhang Aiguo’s 200,000 Japanese general Muto Nobuyi was already sweating profusely on his forehead!
"Commander-in-Chief. It seems that the Russian army is reorganizing!" Guo Songling's voice suddenly sounded. He had worked in Chang Ruiqing's Fujian Army and was not a Japanese non-commissioned officer. So he didn't do well with Jiang JShi, but he didn't want to go back to the south. He could feel that Chang Ruiqing never trusted him, Lu Dasheng... Well. Actually, he didn't know. The reason why Chang Ruiqing couldn't believe that he was not because he was not the Baoding Group, but because his name was Guo Songling! In history, he even opposed the old Zhang family, who was as kind as a mountain to him, how dare Chang Ruiqing reuse it?
Jiang JShi also discovered that the Russian counterattack seemed to have some rules, and it seemed that he was recovering from the chaos of the raid! He nodded heavily: "It's too late for the Russians to reorganize. Their defense line has been captured by us, and the number is at an absolute disadvantage, and the artillery is not good either. Until now, we have not launched a decent counterattack. We have already won this battle!"
Guo Songling's face was full of red light that shone out due to excitement and excitement. Such a victory in a foreign war also made him, the senior staff member, excited. However, his genius staff mind remained calm: "Commander-in-Chief, we cannot give the Russian army a chance to reorganize! Although they lost the initiative, they could still shrink around Fularki Railway Station. Relying on the solid buildings there to defend... We should now throw the cavalry into the attack. Insert from the enemy's left wing, and then disrupt them again! They shouldn't have time to establish a reserve position yet, right? Our cavalry may be able to rush into Fularki Railway Station all the time!"
Jiang JShi thought for a while and asked back: "Can they use cavalry? Can they defeat Fularki?"
Guo Songling shook his head: "It doesn't matter if you can't defeat it, but it will definitely cause Belarus to fall into complete chaos! My subordinates estimate that Belarus suddenly encountered our blow when retreating, so it was so in chaos. Now the team that the commander of the Belarus can control is at most a few thousand. If we invest tens of thousands of cavalry, we will definitely be able to disrupt them again. Then they will not be able to rectify them again... If these tens of thousands of Belarus soldiers do not want to be captured, they can only retreat to Hailar hundreds of miles away in the snow. The final result will either starve to death or freeze to death!"
After listening to Guo Songling's suggestion, Jiang JShi showed an admirational expression on his face and nodded, "Yes! We cannot give the Russians a chance to reorganize, but it is not enough to just invest in the cavalry. We order the New Army to advance forward, take the trench area west of Nenjiang as the starting position, and prepare to launch a frontal attack! Order the artillery to concentrate firepower to bombard Fularki and shoot out all the shells!"
At this time, fierce battles broke out on the west bank of Nenjiang River broke out on the front line. Semenov also showed all his ruthlessness and determination, and even went to the front line to supervise the battle himself. He knew very well that he could not lose in this battle tonight, nor could he afford to lose! Just as Horvat said a few days ago, his Cossacks would not support Ataman who was beaten by the Chinese to escape! What's more, if he wanted to escape this time, he might not be able to escape.
Now he and his tens of thousands of Belarus soldiers have the only way to survive. After understanding his situation and his way out, Semenov did not hesitate at all and threw the thousands of Cossack infantry he could still control into the counterattack, wanting to attack his opponents off guard. At the same time, he ordered his officers to do everything possible to rectify the troops retreating from the front line and put them into the battle again.
But what he didn't expect was that his thousands of Cossack warriors actually ran into blood in front of the short positions held by the short middle-aged men! What made Semenov even more unbelievable was that his Cossack was not repelled by the powerful Chinese artillery fire or dense machine gun fire, but was blocked by the Chinese bayonets.
In fact, the Chinese artillery and machine guns are not very good at using them. There are about a hundred cannons bombarding Fularki Railway Station, but they are not accurate! The machine guns on the positions are insufficient firepower and the configuration is not reasonable, so the number of Cossack infantry that is far less than them is rushed into the trenches again and again. However, those short Chinese people were not scared by the tall Cossacks, but engaged in the most desperate battle with them without fear! Of course, it was not a one-on-one fight, but three or four Chinese people beat one Cossack... There are more people and few people, which is really unfair! His Cossack Warriors were consumed little by little in this very unfair group fight. The casualties of both sides almost filled the land on the west bank of the Nenjiang River, while the number of the Chinese people on the opposite side showed no sign of decreasing! (To be continued...)
