Four days ago, Ye Cheng and Li Jinlong led their troops to Kyzylorda.
General Andres, the commander of the left wing of the Far Eastern Army's Middle Route Army, was overjoyed after failing to storm Karatau Mountain. Feeling that he had insufficient troops on hand, General Andres asked his allies to take the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility. They headed south along the Aral Sea, crossed the desert and Gobi of the Turan Lowlands, and entered Uzbekistan.
Fight to contain the Soviet army's effective forces.
Now the Far Eastern Army's three-pronged army is trapped in the Chuyili Mountains on the right, blocked in the Karatau Mountains in the middle, and southward along the Caspian Sea in the left. It has already advanced into Turkmenistan, but is under attack in the Kurandag Mountains and Cherinklei Plateau.
The Soviet army resisted tenaciously. The Soviet army's supply line mainly relied on Turkmenistan's port city on the Caspian Sea coast, Turkmenbashi. Therefore, the Soviet army assembled heavy troops on this line and launched successive fierce battles with the left army.
Originally, according to the plan, after the Left Army Commander General Ishov captured Turkmenistan, he would lead his troops to attack from west to east, capture the Turkmen capital Ashgabat, and then enter Uzbekistan to fight. However, now that the war has reached a stalemate, Uzbekistan has
On the contrary, there was a military vacuum. The Soviet army accumulated heavy troops there. Once it was allowed to complete its assembly, it would be a huge threat whether it went north along the Aral Sea to cut off the Central Asian Railway or attacked the Caspian Sea westward.
Helping others means helping yourself. Ye Cheng and Li Jinlong readily accepted the task and then led their troops to fight south.
At ten o'clock in the morning on April 27, a rare fog began to appear near the Aral Sea. Although the fog was not too dense due to the desert and Gobi nearby, the visibility was still only about a hundred meters away.
A huge convoy stayed in the woods of an oasis. If you are careful, you will find that these vehicles are covered with armor, some are equipped with tracks, some have eight wheels, some have four wheels, and there are a large number of trucks.
Jeeps and off-road vehicles all have camouflage-colored bodies and eye-catching Flying Fox logos.
Needless to say, everyone knows the identity of this unit. Yes, they are the vanguard of the Yecheng Front, a mixed unit of the Armored Reconnaissance Battalion directly under the First Tank Army and the First Tank Brigade.
Going south from Dakyzylorda, the troops did not encounter any fighting, quickly passed through the Kizer Desert, and entered the oasis area on the east coast of the Aral Sea in Uzbekistan.
At this time, Major General Chen Bannian, commander of the 1st Tank Brigade commanding the battle group, was sitting in his armored command vehicle, holding a cigarette in one hand and a map in the other and observing carefully.
Because the troops moved too quickly at the beginning, coupled with the fog, the vanguard troops he led gradually lost touch with the larger troops. The oasis area here is very large, and what is particularly surprising is that it is spread all over the desert and Gobi.
On the edge of the country, there was a dense jungle covering hundreds of square kilometers. After contacting the headquarters, Ye Cheng asked him to quickly investigate the surrounding environment and find out where the nearest town was.
"brigadier!"
A communications soldier rode a motorcycle and quickly arrived in front of the armored vehicle. After getting off the vehicle, he stood at attention and reported. Chen Bannian jumped out of the car, returned the greeting to the communications soldier and asked hurriedly: "Have the sent reconnaissance troops returned?"
"They're back. They are gathering information and reports in front of the map of the combat section at the back. They will be there soon! Because I am worried that the brigade commander is anxious, I asked me to come back and report first!" the communications soldier replied.
"OK!"
Chen Liannian left his cigarette butt and said: "As long as we figure out where this is, we can make a targeted plan and arrangement, and we will not be black like now."
Five minutes later, two six -wheeled armored vehicles drove straight.
"Chen Journal!"
Major Gao Cheng, the commander of the military investigation camp, jumped off the armored vehicle and performed a military ceremony to Chen Chen.
Introduction to the year: "From here to ten kilometers southwest, it is a highway. You can reach the town of Dalnaria, Calinata Gada, along the highway to the southwest.
Important soldiers' location. "Suddenly, Gao Cheng continued:" There is a problem. Just now our reconnaissance forces discovered a team of Soviet tanks in the southwest. Here! "While Gao Cheng pointed at the map, he pointed at the map and fingered.
Then, then
"tank?"
After listening to Gao Cheng's introduction, Chen Xiannian stunned. Then, he looked closely at the map marked with the position of the enemy, and asked seriously:
"What tanks do the other party, what is the strength?"
Gao Cheng did not hesitate: "According to our close observation, it was found that this part of the Soviet army was equipped with the Soviet T26 and BT7 light tanks, and the BA-27 armored vehicle. From the perspective of quantity, they have more than 20 tanks in total.
More than 20 armored vehicles. I think this is a reconnaissance unit of the Soviet army. In addition, we also found ten anti -tank warfare guns, but there is no infantry accompanied by! "
"The Soviet reconnaissance force? How could they appear here?"
After listening to Gaocheng's explanation, Si Chen was in contemplation. "Do they find our whereabouts and run over to reconcile? This is impossible! We have a sudden action, and even before before, we have never thought that we will receive it.
The task of fighting south. In addition, if we discovered us, they should send large troops to establish a line of defense instead of sending such a unit! "
So Chen Liannian continued to ask: "Did the other party make any special actions? For example, to establish a circular defense position or something?"
"No!"
Gao Cheng thought for a while, shook his head: "According to our observations, this unit did not take any defense measures. When we found them, their troops ranked into a column of columns, and they did not even send a warning whistle. I think they think they are.
I didn't find us! "
After pause, Gao Cheng went on to say: "Chen Journal, I suggest that we should avoid them, and we can choose to from the trail near the seaside near the salty.
Discovered by the other party, and then notified their main alerts! "
"No! It's a pity not to eat the fat in the mouth!"
Chen Liannian waved his hand and said: "This kind of thing that came to the door, don't eat it without eating! We hit him a sudden attack, they may not be able to react! Order all the troops! Check the weapons, fill the oil, fill the oil, fill the oil, fill the oil, fill the oil, fill the oil, fill the oil, and fill the oil.
, Play the battle formation, ready to attack! "
After speaking, Chen Liannian buckled the camouflage steel helmet cap, and then quickly boarded the combat command vehicle, and made a loud order through the vehicle command system: "Brothers, the first battle for the first time we entered Central Asia came! All pay attention!
Two o'clock in the southeast. According to the combat formation, advance! "
Soon, a group of mechanized troops led by Panther tanks formed a mighty three-column line and quickly penetrated deep into the woods ahead.
At this time, about ten kilometers away from the tank unit led by Chen Bannian, a reinforced Soviet reconnaissance battalion was taking a rest. They belonged to the Uzbekistan Combat Corps, which had three corps, three artillery regiments, and three artillery regiments.
The army has an independent anti-aircraft artillery battalion, three army engineering regiments, three communication battalions and several other units, with a total strength of 150,000, a total of 1,200 artillery pieces and more than 900 mortars. It is a force in Central Asia.
Powerful strategic mobility.
The mission of this Soviet reinforced reconnaissance battalion is to continuously conduct reconnaissance and patrols around this forest. If it is discovered that the Far East Army is moving south in a large scale, it will be reported immediately. If it is discovered that it is just the other party's reconnaissance force, it will be captured and interrogated.
The number of the troops and the number of equipped tanks, armored vehicles and artillery provide a reference for the regiment's operations.
The heavy fog this morning made the Soviet army lose their vigilance. They believed that it was not suitable to march in such dense fog. Once they lost their way in the desert, it would be a life-or-death outcome. Therefore, no troops were sent to investigate.
Half an hour later, Chen Bannian's 1st Tank Brigade drove into a distance of only about two kilometers from the opponent. Due to the necessary silencer processing and the obstruction of trees in the woods, the Soviet army did not notice that the crisis was approaching.
The reconnaissance troops sent in advance constantly fed back information. Chen Bannian found that the other party was not aware of the arrival of his troops at all. The Soviet tanks were huddled together and did not even set up combat anti-artillery positions, so he made a bold move in an instant.
Decided to send out the Fourth Motorized Rifle
The battalion commander, Major Chen Jie, led the 15th Anti-Tank Company and the Motorized Rifle Company to go around the opponent's back and cut off the opponent's escape route. The 1st Tank Battalion carried out a flank attack, leading the 2nd and 3rd Tank Battalions, plus the brigade directly under the command.
Anti-tank companies and anti-aircraft machine gun companies attack the opponent's front.
The mission was quickly assigned, all the tanks started to activate, and then each rushed towards their intended target.
"Attention all units! Attention all units!"
Ten minutes later, Chen Bannian, who had arrived at the attack position, held the intercom while looking at the enemy's movements displayed on the electronic display, and calmly issued an order: "Second Battalion, pay attention, target at twelve o'clock! Target,
Ten 37 anti-aircraft guns! Listen to my orders! Get ready! Fire!"
"Boom boom——"
Loud noises came from the muzzle of the tank, and then the ten trucks at the front of the Soviet army were hit, as well as the ten 37 anti-aircraft guns towed behind. In an instant, the dazzling fireball engulfed the entire gun body.
The energy and shrapnel generated by the exploding ammunition turned an area of several hundred square meters into a hell on earth.
"Attention all units, the enemy's tanks and armored vehicles are 350 meters away from the target. Correct the distance and prepare armor-piercing rounds! Fire!" Following Chen Bannian's order, the artillery of sixty tanks from the two battalions burst out with powerful flames.
.In the powerful 50mm kwk39
Under the huge power of the L/60 artillery, the ten T26s parked at the front were destroyed. The total weight was 10.5 tons, the total length of the vehicle was 4.88 meters, the total width of the vehicle was 3.41 meters, and the vehicle height was 2.41 meters. The armor was only 15 meters thick.
, could not withstand the attack of 50mm cannon shells at all, and all the tanks were destroyed in the first round of shooting by the Panther tanks.
"Damn it!"
At this time, the Soviet commander recovered from his surprise: "Chinese! The Chinese are coming!" He shouted loudly: "The enemy is a large force, retreat! Retreat!"
After saying that, the Soviet commander jumped on a command vehicle modified by a bt7 light tank and quickly instructed the correspondent to turn on the radio and convey the news of the Chinese attack to his superiors.
However, at this moment, there was a violent explosion from the left and right of the BT7 command vehicle. The twelve BT7 tanks and twenty-five BA-27 armored vehicles surrounding it exploded and burst into flames before they could start. Violent
The shock shocked the Soviet commander.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling motor sound in his ears. The Soviet commander looked through the periscope and found rows of tanks appearing around him like ghosts. The flying fox logo on the turret was extremely conspicuous, especially the dark side of the opponent.
The muzzle of the gun is full of lethality.
"It's over! You're dead now!"
The Soviet commander screamed in despair, and then the tank body shook violently, high temperatures hit, his vision went dark, and he lost consciousness instantly.
