The soldiers of the Han and Tang dynasties and the patriots of the Song and Ming dynasties once marched on the yellow sands of the northwest to fight outside the Great Wall to protect the beautiful China. After thousands of years, now the army is marching north again, and it is still an unprecedented and exciting event.
Amid the sound of military music, phalanxes of soldiers walked past Chang'an Street one after another. Their neat steps, strong bodies, sophisticated equipment, and high morale attracted cheers from countless people.
The parade square was immersed in a fanatical atmosphere, with national flags waving, countless Chinese and foreign reporters gathered, and hundreds of thousands of people looking forward to it.
Every time we walked through a phalanx, everyone cheered enthusiastically, especially towed artillery, armored vehicles, tanks, self-propelled artillery, these modern steel weapons passed in front of everyone, and the waves of cheers got higher and higher.
The rumbling sound gives all Chinese people the greatest sense of security.
The display of these equipment greatly boosted the morale of the people and gave everyone more confidence in the battle. Since the crisis in the Far East spread, the situation between China and the Soviet Union has become increasingly severe, and both sides are actively preparing for war.
, the war is about to break out, all it lacks is an excuse.
Just half a month ago, a Russian reconnaissance plane tried to detect the Chinese defense situation along the edge of Lake Baikal, but was shot by Chinese anti-aircraft artillery. The pilot luckily escaped by parachuting, but ended up landing on both sides.
on the frontline.
The Chinese soldiers decisively pursued the Russian pilot and rushed into the Russian territory. The two sides began to exchange fire. There have been cold shots on the border in the past, but this was the first time that they rushed directly into the other side's territory.
Both sides invested more and more troops, first a platoon, then a company, and finally. Each side dispatched five to six hundred men. A small conflict turned into a big fight. The Russians paid more than 20 lives.
, the pilot was also killed, and more than a dozen Chinese soldiers died.
This exchange of fire completely detonated the battle between China and Russia. Immediately after the exchange of fire, both China and Russia held press conferences. The Russians claimed that the existence of the Far Eastern Empire was illegal and was the product of China's conspiracy to split Russia. Therefore, Russia
To regain the former land and rescue the Russians who are suffering from a humanitarian crisis.
After seeing this statement, Zhang Tinglan also sneered. He even gave China's excuse for interfering in Southeast Asia. If you really care about humanitarianism, you'd better take a look at the Ukrainian plains!
China also responded immediately. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs claimed that the existence of the Far Eastern Empire was seriously threatened. At the invitation of Her Majesty the Queen, the Chinese Army decisively entered the Far East to assist the soldiers and civilians of the Far East and resist the Russian invasion.
In fact, it can be seen from the statements of both sides that everyone is very cautious and did not directly declare war. Russia wants to regain lost territory, and China wants to protect the security of the Far East.
This undoubtedly left room for maneuver for each side. After all, when two giants collide, no one can predict the consequences. Just like when Fengjun and Japan went to war, the two sides still fought undeclared.
Of course, this is the case on the surface. In the real battle, no one dares to relax. It is even said that they will only become more desperate. Both sides are constantly mobilizing their most elite forces to the front line, and war materials are continuously sent over.
China even organized an unprecedented military oath-taking ceremony, with hundreds of thousands of people in the capital watching in person, cheering and praying for the departing soldiers.
The sick man of East Asia in the past can now have such a powerful army. Many old people have tears in their eyes, and young people have their eyes shining, holding everything tightly, wishing that they were one of them.
.
"Mr. Doihara, what do you think of the performance of the Chinese army?"
"It's very good. They have strong morale and excellent equipment. To a certain extent, they have caught up with the empire's army."
As the military attache stationed in China, Doihara naturally would not miss the opportunity to observe the Chinese ** troops at close range. He and Yoshizawa Kenkichi were squeezed into the crowd and watched this majestic military parade.
Seeing some of the equipment of the squadron, Doihara also showed a greedy look. China is already ahead of Japan in army construction.
Especially China, a country with a vast land and abundant resources, is willing to spend a lot of money on weapons. Tanks and armored vehicles are far ahead of the Japanese. Although the Japanese tried their best to develop their army after their defeat in Korea, they were limited by resources and coupled with the
The huge demand of the Shanghai Navy has caused the Japanese Army to be far away from China.
No matter how arrogant Doihara is, he will not tell lies with his eyes open, but there is still a disdainful smile on his lips: "From this military parade, we can clearly see that the Chinese people are proud, and they think they can easily
Defeat the enemy, so they showed off their strength without any scruples. However, as the Chinese Military Book says, arrogant soldiers will be defeated. The more confident they are, the easier it is for them to fall."
Although the Japanese Army has left a stereotyped impression on people, most of Japan's senior generals still believe in conspiracy. In war, it is about taking the enemy by surprise and attacking them unprepared. There is no reason to show strength. The Japanese can see it.
The Russians can also see that China will definitely suffer a big loss in the Far East.
By that time, the Japanese will be able to reap the fruits of victory. Being a neighbor to a behemoth like China will put a lot of pressure on the Japanese. They will definitely not look forward to any good days in China.
…
"Watch out! Plane!"
Zhang Zizhong shouted loudly, and the soldiers hurriedly hid their bodies in the trenches. Russian fighter jets flew past the sky, bullets hit the ground, sand and gravel flew horizontally, and soil splashed. Fortunately, no casualties were caused. Zhang Zizhong emerged from the trenches
He got up, dusted off the dirt on his body, and yelled: "Old Maozi, come down if you have the ability, I will challenge you to a duel!"
Before Zhang Zizhong could say anything, he saw a few flashes of fire suddenly flash on the wings of the fighter jet, and then it quickly fell to the ground like a stone.
Peng! A ball of flames rose into the sky, and everyone, including the pilot, turned into a pile of red light. The soldiers happened to see this scene and couldn't help but laugh.
"Battal Commander, you are really amazing. With just one sentence, you can bring down a Russian plane. If you just say a few more words, the Russian air force will be gone!"
After saying this, all the soldiers around laughed, and everyone relaxed for a rare moment. Of course, Zhang Zizhong did not say this, but the plane was shot down by a Chinese fighter jet.
Several Chinese fighter planes passed over Zhang Zizhong's heads, and more planes appeared on the horizon behind them. A large black mass flew through the sky, with a huge roar that made their ears hurt.
But every time they see this scene, the soldiers can't help but feel excited. This is a symbol of China's power. During this period, Chinese fighter planes often formed huge fleets and carried out bombing operations towards Russia.
On the front line in the Far East, the Chinese Army was actually not as powerful as the Russians. However, it was able to suppress the Russians and prevent them from rashly attacking with all their strength. The role of the Air Force played an astonishing role.
"Battal Commander. I just counted. This time at least forty or fifty bombers were dispatched, as well as dozens of fighter jets to escort us. It's really spectacular. I'm going to have a good show now."
Zhang Zizhong also nodded: "Cheer up, don't just envy others. In the future, we will have to rely on our army to decide the outcome. No one is allowed to be timid!"
Zhang Zizhong and the others were right in their guess. The target of dispatching so many planes this time was Russia's Lake Baikal fleet. Since the establishment of the Far East Empire, Lake Baikal has become the frontline of both sides. The Russians have formed a fleet of more than twenty people.
A Lakeland fleet of gunboats and vessels of various types.
Killing this fleet will greatly weaken the Russian water transportation capabilities and disrupt Russia's war deployment. Therefore, China is determined to win.
The fleet of aircraft appeared in the sky above Lake Baikal, facing a sapphire-like lake surface with ripples. In the distance, you can see the flag of the hammer and sickle fluttering in the wind.
The Baikal Fleet never expected that they would become the target of attack. The sailors screamed in fear. They set up all their weapons and kept shooting into the air in an attempt to resist.
However, the sparse firepower network could not threaten the Chinese fighter planes at all. Bombs fell from the planes, and explosions were heard one after another.
Some bombs fell into the water, splashing up more than ten meters of white waves, and some fell on the shore, blowing up the Russian troops. The lake seemed to be boiling. One big wave followed another, and those tens of tons, hundreds of
In the violent explosion, the gunboat turned into a pile of scrap metal and sank into the lake.
The Russian sailors suffered heavy losses, with staggering casualties. Within half an hour of bombing, the Baikal fleet became history. These pilots were still unfinished, and when they withdrew, they circled over the heads of the Russians.
Boom boom boom, bursts of fire rang out on the Russian positions, trenches were destroyed, and fortifications were blown to pieces. The huge fleet also attacked several Russian material bases and barracks. The fire swallowed up the supplies that had just been transported.
, no less than two hundred people were killed in the bombing, and hundreds more were injured.
Although the Russians are trying their best to strengthen their air force, they are still far behind China in terms of quality, quantity, and even the quality of their pilots. Therefore, it is inevitable that they will suffer losses in battles.
Feng Yong was in charge of the bombing operations in the Far East. He was very satisfied with the results of the past few days, but the only thing he was dissatisfied with was that they were not the protagonists of this battle.
When he first formulated the combat plan, Zhang Tinglan placed the real main battlefield in Central Asia, and the Far East was just a cover.
Of course, in order to make the Russians believe this lie, Zhang Tinglan also made careful arrangements. He demanded that the deployment of troops to the Far East must be open and upright, so he organized a massive military parade.
In addition, in terms of military strength display, the Far East must far exceed Central Asia. For example, the scale of aircraft reconnaissance in the Far East must be more than twice that of Central Asia, and bombing operations are mainly concentrated in the Far East.
Although Feng Yong was very lively, he was a bit unwilling to play a supporting role. However, he only dared to vent his anger on the Russians, constantly making the Russians pay a heavier price.
However, the Russians' war preparations are still proceeding rapidly. Moscow has dispatched Yegorov as the commander-in-chief of the Far East Front. He has gathered a total of more than 80,000 troops on the front line in Irkutsk. These troops are all from the Soviet Civil War.
Elite main force.
The disastrous defeat of Budyonny and the loss of Chita and other places became an eternal pain in the hearts of the Russian people. Therefore, ever since the decision was made to regain the Far East, the Russian army has been gearing up to avenge its previous humiliation.
Yegorov is also one of the best commanders in Russia. He has experienced hundreds of battles and has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements. In the autumn of 1919, Denikin's troops entered Tula, the gateway to Moscow. Yegorov was ordered to serve as the Southern Front Army in the face of danger.
Commander, led the battle to crush Denikin and save Moscow.
From then on, he rose through the ranks and became one of the most dazzling stars in the Russian army. It was precisely because of his outstanding military exploits that he was favored by Stalin and appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front.
But Yegorov didn't know that from the beginning, he, and Moscow, had fallen into a fatal mistake, just when he was concentrating all his efforts and preparing to launch an attack.
China's most elite Guards Division had already left Beijing and entered Xinjiang along the railway line. Then they left Dihua, crossed the long yellow sand, and quickly advanced towards Central Asia. The place they wanted to capture was exactly
Alashankou.
Alataw Mountain Pass is a wide, flat passage about 20 kilometers wide and 90 kilometers long between Alatau Mountain and Barluk Mountain. It is connected to Lake Ala in Central Asia to the north and Lake Aibi in Xinjiang to the south.
The choke point to Central Asia.
As long as this narrow mountain pass can be captured, what lies in front of the squadron will be the endless Central Asian plains, a natural battlefield for armored troops. Zhang Henian thoroughly studied the terrain of Central Asia before setting off.
The vanguard force responsible for attacking Alashankou was China's airborne troops. It can be said that it was the first time in history that the victory of a battle was pinned on paratroopers. However, the whole country was willing to take a gamble.
In the early morning of June 10th, 24 transport planes were lined up neatly on the airport runway. Song Qingquan personally led the team, and a battalion of paratroopers were all ready for battle.
As the plane took off, these brave soldiers flew into the distance together with the Chinese people's desire for victory.
In order to ensure safety, they bypassed the Alashan Pass from the north, and the fleet entered the Central Asian plains. At 7:50, they finally arrived at the scheduled skydiving location.
White umbrella flowers appeared in the sky, fluttering and falling to the ground. The paratroopers had been trained countless times and were extremely skilled in this action. Song Qingquan still took the lead and jumped down, and the soldiers behind him followed closely.
follow.
But after they jumped down, a fatal problem suddenly appeared. Gustful winds blew, and the air was filled with fine sand and gravel. It was impossible to open their eyes, and these paratroopers were also blown everywhere... ( To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
