A document was slammed on the table. Marshal Kolchak, the Cossack Army Minister of War, angrily shouted to his commander: "It's been two days and you still can't get through. The Chinese people on the other side are
There are so few of you but you can't rush through. You losers, if the two armies in Yakutsk are wiped out, I will not feel comfortable in front of His Majesty, and you will not feel comfortable either. I will give you one day. If you can't fight again
Open a blocking circle and I will shoot you."
A group of group army commanders stood in front of Marshal Kolchak with their heads lowered, not daring to express their anger, although they knew that the other party's words of wanting to be shot were just angry words. Without the order of Alexander III, the Minister of Army was not qualified to shoot them as group army commanders.
.
But they also know that if the two armies surrounded by Yakutsk are finished this time, they will be blamed. No one of them will be easy at that time, and suspension and review will be light. Therefore, when Kolcha
When Ke announced the adjournment of the meeting, these people, as if they had received an amnesty, immediately rushed back to their headquarters and stepped up their command of the battle. This time they were going to take action for real.
"The Cossacks worked hard." Huo Jiucheng dusted himself off and said, "These guys are fighting harder and harder. Our defense line is not easy to defend."
At this moment, the rumble of artillery was heard in the distance, and the fire lit half of the sky red. All the soldiers were attracted by the sound of artillery. The direction of the sound of artillery was the city of Yakutsk. "Our main force
The troops have begun a general attack, brothers must hold on and never let the Cossacks pass through here." Guo Cheng shouted excitedly.
Yes, after two days of fighting, the National Defense Forces have occupied most of the city. The two Cossack armies, which suffered more than half of their casualties, can only huddle in the southeast corner of the city, praying not to be hit by the opponent's heavy artillery. At this moment, they have lost all their heavy weapons.
, ran out of ammunition and food.
"Launch a general attack and achieve final victory within two hours." Lin Yangchun in the command room pounded his fist on the table and ordered. The orders were passed on one after another, and the artillery of the eight armies of the National Defense Force were concentrated.
The guns were aimed at the Cossacks huddled in the southeast corner.
As the 203mm heavy artillery began to speak first, the general attack began. Intensive artillery shells fell on the area where the Cossacks were. The desperate Cossack soldiers held their heads and ran around, looking for safe cover. But in such a situation
A small area, where to find safe cover, they can only hide in vain, praying that the shells will not fall on their heads.
Holding semi-automatic rifles with triangular bayonets opened, the Wehrmacht soldiers rushed from the streets and alleys toward the last Cossack settlement. Behind them were tanks serving as fire support. The roar of artillery sounded,
This is the point where the tank guns are destroying the remaining firepower of the Cossacks. Without heavy firepower, the Cossacks can only become lambs to be slaughtered, and they have no choice but to surrender.
The battle in the city of Yakutsk ended quickly. When all the commanders of the two army group headquarters were captured by the soldiers of the Wehrmacht, the remaining Cossacks also laid down their weapons. Gunfire from the direction of Yakutsk was heard.
It became more and more sparse, and the attacks of various Cossack reinforcements became more desperate.
"Asshole, have these Cossacks taken any medicine? They are simply not afraid of death." Zhao Lei stabbed to death a Cossack who rushed forward with his bayonet, and cursed in his mouth.
Huo Jiucheng picked up a submachine gun and fired a burst, knocking down several Cossacks and then said: "This is their last act of madness. Didn't you hear the gunshots over there were quieter? This is the end of the battle."
At this time, Lin Yangchun was ordering the troops to clean the battlefield, keep the prisoners under centralized custody, collect weapons and register them. "How is the cleaning of the battlefield going?" Lin Yangchun asked when he saw deputy commander Zhang Mingzhong walking in.
Zhang Mingzhong picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water and said: "It's going very quickly. It will be completed in another two hours."
Lin Yangchun frowned and said, "When the battlefield is cleared and the troops are ordered to withdraw from the city, we are ready to continue fighting."
Zhang Mingzhong said: "The troops have been very tired after fighting for three days and two nights. Should we rest for a few days first?"
Lin Yangchun shook his head and said: "Let the soldiers overcome it again. Now several groups of Cossack armies are rushing towards us. We must defeat them to truly win."
After cleaning the battlefield, the Wehrmacht soldiers of the eight armies rushed towards the Verkhovyansk Mountains area. They wanted to annihilate the Cossack army and try to open another gap in that direction.
The position where Guo Cheng was located was in a mess. There were only more than fifty soldiers left on the position. The division headquarters had already put the last platoon of reserve troops into the battlefield two hours ago. Facing another swarm,
Guo Cheng gritted his teeth and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to test our loyalty. For the sake of our motherland, for the people, and for the sake of our wise and mighty Majesty, let's charge."
"Charge." The soldiers responded one after another. They shouted and rushed out of the trenches and rushed towards the Cossacks who were charging up the mountain. Some soldiers shot while charging, and some threw the last grenade. See
The Wehrmacht soldiers and Cossacks who rushed down from the high ground also rushed up with howls.
Just when the two sides were about to come to a fight, there was a sudden roar of motors in the sky, and countless bombers and fighter jets flew past, spraying strings of bombs and aircraft machine gun bullets on the Cossacks' team.
Then there was a scream in the air, and countless artillery shells passed over their heads, hitting the attack preparation area, military camp and artillery position behind the Cossack army. Those were heavy artillery shells, and bursts of violent explosions came from them.
There was a sound behind them, and the tremors of the earth almost made both sides of the opponent lose their footing.
After a heavy shower of bombs and artillery shells, the sound of military bugles sounded one after another. This was the charge horn of the Wehrmacht. They completely annihilated the main force of the Yakutsk city defenders and finally arrived at the most critical moment.
Countless Wehrmacht soldiers with bayonets rushed towards the Cossacks who were caught off guard, stabbing or disarming the Cossacks who had no time to defend. The exhausted Cossacks were completely defeated. Cossacks scattered all over the mountains and plains, and some simply raised their hands.
rifle, waiting for the other party to surrender.
After this battle, of the 300,000 Cossacks guarding the city of Yakutsk, 170,000 were killed, 30,000 were missing, and the other 100,000 became prisoners. In the Verkhovyansk Mountains, 250,000 Cossacks were
During the three-day blockade, more than 60,000 people were killed or injured, 30,000 others were killed in the ensuing battle, and 120,000 were captured and all fled into the desolate mountainous areas of the north.
Including the Cossack army that was annihilated when they crossed the Lena River, more than half a million people were wiped out in this battle alone, and the Cossacks' Eastern Front was almost exhausted. This is still watching.
After the Verkhovyansk Group Army was destroyed, the Cossack reinforcements from other directions retreated first.
The Army of the Chinese Empire once again shocked the world. After this battle, a large area of territory west of the Lena River was occupied by the Chinese Empire, including several large cities including Yakutsk. Within a week, the Chinese Imperial Defense Force penetrated deep into the Cossacks.
With a territory of one hundred kilometers, the eastern front is in danger.
Seeing the superior combat effectiveness of the Chinese Imperial Army, Alexander III immediately realized that his main threat had changed from the Yaman Empire to the Chinese Empire. Therefore, he immediately ordered to mobilize elite troops from the front line against the Yaman Empire through the railway.
Come out and replenish to the east.
The threat on the eastern front of the Yaman Empire was greatly reduced for a while, and the Yaman Empire was also happy to let the Chinese Empire share the terrifying number of Cossacks' troops, and they strengthened their offensive on the western continent.
In the Far East, Lin Yangchun fought a beautiful battle of annihilation. In the direction of the central mainland, Su Zhizhen was not ambiguous. Under his leadership, two armies of the Guards, four infantry corps and an armored cavalry corps of the National Defense Force attacked across the board.
With the cooperation of six air force wings, they launched an attack on the Cossack Army and the Kokand Army in the Stanya Alliance.
Su Zhizhen used Loulan County as a base and divided the army into two parts. Two corps of the Guards and two infantry corps of the Wehrmacht crossed the Altai Pass and attacked Barnaul in the Cossacks. On the other hand, there were three corps of the Wehrmacht.
It is specifically responsible for attacking the Kokand Kingdom and the original Stanya Alliance area.
Both the Stanya Alliance and the domestic army in Kokand are almost in the form of a garrison. Their combat effectiveness is quite unbearable. Therefore, in order to speed up the attack rhythm, Su Zhizhen organized the three armies responsible for this direction into three groups and attacked from three directions.
To different areas, the direction of attack of the Fourth Armored Cavalry Corps was Kriushi, the capital of the Kokand Kingdom.
Seeing the unstoppable offensive of the National Defense Forces, which resulted in the defeat of all Kokand armies, the Kokand government was shocked. The alliance established a defense line on the west bank of the Kashgar River connecting Lake Balkhash, which was the only way for the National Defense Forces to attack.
, trying to prevent the opponent's attack.
The Kokand Kingdom was quite afraid of the Chinese Empire, so they concentrated all their main forces in the country to build positions on the Kashgar River. Their government regarded this river as the only hope to block the Chinese Empire's attack. With the help of Cossack military advisors,
, built dense fortification groups and deep positions along the river, deployed more than 300,000 troops along the river, more than 10,000 machine guns, and more than 700 artillery pieces. It can be said that the strength is not weak. These weapons are also the result of the full assistance of the Cossack Empire.
The geographical location of the Kokand Kingdom is very important. To the north is the Cossack Empire, and to the west and south are the lands of the former Stania Union. It can be said to be a barrier for the Cossack Empire. Therefore, in order to strengthen their military strength, the Cossack Empire spared no effort.
