August 8, 1939 AD, the 23rd day of the sixth lunar month, the beginning of autumn.
It was 4:30 in the morning, Tashkent time, and the sky in the east had just turned white. The Anjia Army units in Turkmenistan and Afghanistan had already taken active actions.
Yes, today is the day when the Anjia Army launches a general attack on Persia and India. There are three major combat groups in the border areas of Turkmenistan and Afghanistan from north to south. One of them is the Yecheng Tank Group located on the border between Turkmenistan and Persia.
.
In the past year, Ye Cheng's tank cluster has been fully expanded. The entire tank cluster has three tank armies and one directly affiliated guard corps. The purpose of the headquarters' expansion of the tank cluster is to make every tank cluster under its jurisdiction
A tank group army has the ability to conduct a strategic decisive battle alone in a certain direction.
The Direct Guard is a strategic supplementary unit under the direct jurisdiction of the cluster headquarters. It has five tank brigades, five armored infantry brigades, two heavy tank brigades, a tank destroyer brigade, a self-propelled howitzer brigade, a self-propelled cannon brigade, and an anti-aircraft gun.
Brigade, a rocket artillery brigade, a communications brigade, an engineering brigade and a pontoon brigade, two army aviation brigades and other combat units can be used as strategic reserves to coordinate the attack and defense of all fronts at any time, and can also be used as independent strategic units.
, engage in a certain battle and give the enemy a fatal blow.
The Tank Army is a strategic unit consisting of three tank divisions, two armored infantry divisions, one tank destroyer brigade, three howitzer brigades, one pontoon brigade, one construction engineer brigade, one anti-aircraft artillery brigade, five independent heavy tank regiments, and two
It is composed of a self-propelled cannon regiment, an army aviation brigade, a rocket launcher regiment, a military tank regiment, a communications regiment, a reserve regiment, a long-range reconnaissance battalion, a chemical defense battalion and group army logistics troops.
The tank division is a combat unit with three tank regiments, two armored infantry regiments, a self-propelled cannon regiment, a howitzer regiment, an air defense regiment, a transport regiment, a helicopter squadron, a rocket launcher battalion, and a chemical defense battalion.
A repair battalion and a reconnaissance company, the basic firepower configuration can completely suppress the Soviet and German troops of the same level.
The tank regiment is the basic combat unit. Tanks can only explode with greater power when used intensively. Therefore, in principle, the tank regiment is the basic unit for tank unit operations. It has three tank battalions and two armored infantry battalions.
An artillery battalion, an air defense battalion, and five directly affiliated tank companies. The standard organization of an armored infantry regiment is three armored infantry battalions, a tank battalion, an artillery battalion, an air defense battalion, and five directly affiliated armor companies.
The tank battalion includes the battalion headquarters and the battalion headquarters company, and four tank companies. The battalion headquarters and the battalion headquarters company have a total of 300 people, including the reconnaissance platoon, heavy mortar platoon, communications platoon, support platoon, sanitation platoon, maintenance platoon, and cooking platoon.
The platoon is equipped with two Leopard II tanks, six tracked armored vehicles, 12 armored personnel carriers, 15 trucks, and six large-caliber mortars; the tank company includes a company headquarters equipped with two Leopard II tanks and three
Each tank platoon has four Leopard II tanks. When covering infantry attacks, tank battalions or tank companies can be deployed to fight. However, in principle, they should return to their formation as soon as possible after the battle so that tanks can be used as intensively as possible.
After being organized layer by layer, the strength of the tank cluster has been expanded by three times. In addition, the troops are equipped with the latest Leopard II and Tiger I tanks. For the first time, they also have Army helicopter units that can suppress enemy tank attacks. The tank cluster
It has become the most automated strategic cluster in the Anjiajun system.
In this attack on Persia, the tank clusters led by Ye Cheng will penetrate from the flat Caspian Sea coast and the southern area of the Masjad Mountains in Khazar into northeastern Persia, along the railways and roads, and all the way through the Caspian Sea coastal plain.
and grassland, advancing into the Caucasus and Azerbaijan regions of the Soviet Union, and marching along the Persian railway from Mashhad to Tehran.
The second largest strategic cluster is the Yang Jiuxiao Corps.
In the past year, the Anjia Army Motorized Infantry Corps has also undergone significant expansion. Specifically, it has greatly increased the proportion of tanks and armored troops, added professional mountain troops, and also increased the artillery and anti-tank firepower of the troops.
It has been strengthened. More importantly, since the beginning of the war between Germany and France, each army group has transferred deputy commanders, deputy political commissars, deputy chiefs of staff and other officers at all levels in the army and some elite non-commissioned officers in accordance with the orders of the headquarters to form b
force.
The b unit is completely organized according to divisions, regiments, battalions, companies, platoons, and squads with the same designation. For example, the 46th Motorized Infantry Division of the 16th Group Army of Yang Jiuxiao Corps formed the 46b Division, which can be said to be the 46th Motorized Infantry Division.
In the shadow of the Motorized Infantry Division, except for the lack of heavy firepower equipment such as tanks, armored vehicles, and large-caliber heavy artillery, the rest of the organization is exactly the same and can respond to the needs of army expansion or frontline battle losses at any time.
The Yang Jiuxiao Corps is deployed on the western border of Afghanistan. From north to south, it is divided into three major strike groups: Hetra, Nebastai, and Chahansur.
Yan Zilin's 16th Group Army stationed in Hetra needs to occupy Tayebat City east of the border immediately after the war begins, and then rush towards Mashhad from south to north, cooperating with the Second Tank Army of the Northern Tank Group.
, captured Mashhad, the most important city in northeastern Persia, and then attacked south and west. The final goal was to capture Isfahan and Qom, cut off the connection between the Soviet troops on the north and south lines, and implement a division and siege on them.
.
After crossing the border, Yu Zeqing's 17th Group Army in the middle will attack Sapra and Birjand, and then go all the way south to join the remaining troops of Cheng Junhua's 18th Group Army in the south at Zahedan and turn around.
And to the west, follow the railway to attack Shulgazi, Bam, Kerman and other cities. In Kerman, turn south and attack Bandar Abbas by road and railway lines until we capture this city guarding Khok.
to important port cities in the Strait of Hormuz.
Cheng Junhua's Eighteenth Group Army is located less than 25 kilometers away from the city of Zahedan. After capturing Zahedan, an important border city on the Eurasian railway built by the British, one unit was left to hold on, and the rest of the troops rushed to
Go south, occupy the entire territory of Baluchistan, and cut off the connection between Sheng Shicai's eastern and western armies.
The third largest strategic cluster is the Li Jinlong Corps.
In addition to commanding his own corps, Li Jinlong also commanded three armies of the Hunan Army, the Guizhou Army and the Yunnan Army. The main direction of attack was India.
Among them, General Li Jinlong will lead the regiment directly under the Guards and the Southwest Allied Forces to rush south from Kandahar to capture Quetta, Hyderabad and Karachi. Then he will cross the Indian Desert and attack Rajasthan, Jijrat and Maharas.
In Trabada, several strategic points are Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Vadodara and Mumbai.
Three major armies were deployed in eastern Afghanistan. After the battle started, they fired three arrows from Peshawar, Kohat and Bennu respectively. They rushed straight towards the Northwest Frontier States, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh in western India, and drove out the newly occupied areas.
Sheng Shicai's communist army took Islamabad, Lahore, Amritsar, Chandigarh and Delhi into its hands.
Four days ago, that is, on August 4, the Second Army of Shengshicai Department, with the cooperation of the cavalry army heading north from Jaipur, broke through the defenses of the British Army, the British Indian Army and the Pakistani Army, and occupied the city of Delhi. Since then, India's largest
Three of India's cities, Calcutta, Bombay and Delhi, have fallen. The fourth largest city, Madras, is also in danger. The situation in India is completely out of control.
As early as early August, the third-largest figure in the Indian National Congress, Chandra Bose, who had served as the commander of the Indian Brigade in the Nazi army, was taken to Calcutta, Bengal by the Communist government to serve as the head of state of the newly established Republic of India.
, Prime Minister, Military Minister and Supreme Commander of the Indian National Army.
In a public speech to hundreds of thousands of supporters in Calcutta, Chandra Bose called on the Indian people to unite and, under the leadership of the Asian leader ***, expel the remaining white forces in India and attack the British lackeys Gur.
The Kabul Army (British-Indian Army), the Pakistan Army and the Bangladesh Army contribute to India's independence.
Although Gandhi and Nehru followed the British and retreated to the mountainous areas of central, eastern and southern India, rebels from all over the country were energized to attach themselves to the new government in Calcutta. India, the brightest jewel in the crown of the British king, had actually been destroyed. This set the stage for
An Jiajun found a good excuse to attack India.
The 156 military airports built by the Anjia Army in Turkmenistan and Afghanistan were all put into use this morning.
At 4:35, 2,100 bombers and a thousand fighter jets roared and took off from the airport one after another. The pilots of each group and squadron were guided by the high-altitude airship radar and rushed towards the target one by one.
Another group of bombers, like moving dark clouds, quickly flew towards various strategic points of the Soviet army.
The bombers participating in the operation include B1 level bombers, B2 dive bombers, B4 four-engine ultra-long-range bombers, Q1 and Q2 attack aircraft. The first wave of strike groups must destroy all Soviet aircraft at the beginning of the attack. In the best case scenario,
Even the enemy planes are parked on the ground. These bombers will carry highly lethal high-explosive bombs, submunitions and terrifying napalm bombs to ensure the impact on the airport.
The mission of the second wave of aircraft groups is to bomb the Soviet headquarters, military camps, ports, ammunition depots, fuel depots, parking areas for tanks and cars, as well as transportation hubs connecting various troop locations, such as train stations, bridges, etc. Chapter 1
The third wave of aircraft groups is an attack aircraft group that accompanies ground operations. It uses powerful Q1 and Q2 attack aircraft to annihilate the Soviet troops on one side of the border with overwhelming force, allowing the ground troops to advance quickly.
In addition, the strategic bomber group, under the protection of A27 fighter planes, will block the railways and roads connecting the north and south of the Caucasus Mountains, and blow up the ports of Lankalan, Baku, Makhachkala, Kirovsky and other cities along the Caspian Sea.
facilities, blocking the Soviet army's troop reinforcement lines, and disrupting the Soviet Navy's sea transportation and naval gun threats.
In the war room of the General Staff Headquarters in Xinjing, there was silence in the room. The General Staff Headquarters and the generals of the navy, army and air force all looked at An Yi intently.
At five minutes after five o'clock, Major General Shen Ziling, the director of the Operations Department, stood up in front of the radio station, trotted to An Yi's side, and reported: "Chairman, the first wave of strike groups has approached their respective target airports, and the second wave will also arrive in a few minutes.
Above the respective targets, please give instructions."
An Yi nodded calmly. After the test of a long war, coupled with the advancement of radar and radio technology, the command and coordination level of the Anjia Army Air Force has now reached a very high level, so he was not too surprised.
, he raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and said two words softly: "Start."
Suddenly, the silence was broken in the hall of the South China High Command and the various frontline headquarters and headquarters, and combat orders were quickly conveyed to the front line.
At this time, in Turkmenistan and Afghanistan, the sky was already slightly bright and the earth was gray.
"Rumble--"
Suddenly, without warning, thousands of cannons fired in silence, and the entire misty sky and earth were filled with fast orange-red flashes. Bright yellow rays of light rushed into the air quickly, flying a certain distance.
Then, within a few seconds, the Soviet positions on the other side of the border were filled with dense flashes of light.
The bright color of the eastern sky was completely drowned out by the flash of tens of thousands of large and small artillery pieces.
Heavy artillery as large as 150mm and 120mm caliber, and mortars as small as 81mm and 60mm caliber, all fired at the other side of the border.
The 150mm caliber cannons allocated by the Second Artillery Corps to various combat units bombard deep targets, infantry artillery, howitzers and mortars that are more than ten kilometers or more than twenty kilometers away, and they bombard a few kilometers on the other side of the national border.
Targets one kilometer or even hundreds of meters away, Soviet defense fortifications, temporary observation posts, machine gun bunkers, and sandbag emplacements that had been detected in advance by reconnaissance planes and high-altitude radars were all engulfed in a sea of flames.
Far away from the national border, hemispherical spots of light kept flashing one after another. They were the flashes of 150mm cannon shells emitted when they exploded more than ten or twenty kilometers away.
Just as the Soviet army was in chaos and the troops were on the verge of collapse, a hail of bombs fell almost simultaneously on the major military airports hastily built by the Soviet army in Persia.
Although they had long known that the Anjia Army was on the other side of the national border, the Soviet troops that had withdrawn from Central Asia had already set foot on the soil of the motherland. Their original worries and fears were swept away, and they began to look forward to it.
After returning to the country to replenish sufficient troops and equipment, they will compete with the Anjia Army again. At the same time, it is still early and there are still twenty-five minutes before the morning exercises, and almost everyone is still seizing the time to catch up on sleep.
Therefore, at this moment, almost all the Soviet pilots and infantrymen guarding the airport were blown out of their beds.
There was a sudden violent explosion outside. Before they could react to the earth-shattering sound, the huge air wave directly broke through the window glass of the Persian primary school and middle school classrooms that were temporarily used as airport dormitories. The Soviet pilots did not know what happened.
and infantrymen, with violent shaking, rolled off the bed and fell to the ground. Some of them were trembling with fear, lying on the ground and not daring to move. Some were shouting loudly looking for pants and socks, and some simply wore nothing.
He grabbed his clothes and pants and rushed outside.
At the military airport in the north of Tehran, there was a Soviet military political commissar. After being bombed, he rushed out of the dormitory wearing only shorts and shouted loudly as he ran:
"Gather! Gather quickly! There are enemies of the Soviet Union who are wreaking havoc! Those hateful Persians have detonated our ammunition depot! They must all be sent to the gallows and hanged without leaving a trace!"
"Political Commissar, this is not sabotage!"
A lieutenant officer threw him to the ground, dodged the flying glass, and pointed to the sky: "Look, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, this is not that our ammunition depot exploded, but that the enemy is using fighter planes to bomb us!"
"Bombing!? How is this possible?"
The political commissar was stunned for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "Dereliction of duty, this is serious dereliction of duty. What do our border and air defense troops do for food? No, I want to report it to the All-Russian Suppression Committee and send all these dereliction of duty to prison."
Ka’s judgment seat!”
The political commissar who made his fortune by reporting was shouting vigorously when a flaming thing spun and fell over, falling directly on the political commissar's body. From his head to his buttocks, his entire body was chopped into pieces.
Two pieces were taken out, and the smelly flesh and blood juice mixed with the internal organs flew out, drenching the officer next to him.
It turned out that what was flying was a fragmented propeller. Due to the huge impact, this propeller, which looked like a sharp machete, became a murder weapon!
...
During the land offensive, almost all fronts of the Anjia Army adopted the tactics of blooming in the center, breaking through on both wings, pincer attacks, and finally encircling the entire front to eliminate the effective forces of the Soviet and Japanese troops.
On the southeastern coast of the Caspian Sea, the First Tank Division under the First Tank Army moved directly from Gassankouli to the port of Tolkaman, while the Second Tank Division attacked Aggalai from Kyzyl Atrek, attracting
With the Soviet army's attention along the border, the 3rd Tank Division quickly attacked Moravetape from the right wing, captured the mountain pass leading to the Mashhad area, and joined forces with the left-wing army at Kordecui and Gor.
Work on the front line to surround and completely annihilate the Soviet division defending this area, clearing obstacles for the next attack.
On the Mashhad front line, the Fourth Tank Division of the Second Tank Army quickly passed through the Kopet Pass and Khorasan Pass from Ashgabat, and quickly followed the road to occupy Guchang. The Fifth Tank Division was formed by the Persian government three years ago.
Jointly surveyed with the Soviet government to prepare for the Tezhan Valley plain area connecting Mashhad and Tezhan, occupy the border cities of Salakhs and Mozdulan, and cut off the southward escape route of the Soviet troops in the Mashhad area.
The other fronts all advanced into Persia and India according to the predetermined battle plan. Along the thousands of kilometers of border, the sound of gunfire was heard continuously.
From last year to this year, the Soviet Union vigorously developed weapons and equipment. Based on the Far Eastern Army tanks captured from Kirov City, it also developed the T34 tank. However, Soviet soldiers have never seen such an overwhelming mechanized army.
The wave of almost "perverted" shelling when the attack was launched had reminded most Soviet soldiers of the tragic scenes they experienced in Central Asia. Every one of them was about to have a nervous breakdown. Although a few people plucked up the courage to lie down in the trenches.
They held rifles inside and fired at the oncoming tanks and armored vehicles, but more officers and soldiers turned around and ran away without their lives.
No matter which combat group the Anjia officers and soldiers were in, almost all of them were veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles. The tank crews who rushed to the front to carry out attack and cover tasks were all excited at this time. They sat in the crowded and dark tank cabin.
Surrounded by the roar and vibration, I pressed my face against the small observation scope, aimed at the Soviet soldiers in front, and fired one after another.
The I-type general-purpose machine gun (MG42) is extremely efficient in killing people. As the muzzle flash kept flashing, the fleeing Soviet soldiers fell to the ground one by one.
The mechanized troops of the Anjia Army roared past the villages in Persia and India, violently strafing and firing, and the loudspeakers on the tanks shouted loudly in Russian and Chinese:
"Soviet Army (Japanese Army) soldiers, you have been surrounded by us. Put down your weapons and surrender... We are the Anjia Army. We have fought against each other many times in Central Asia. What do you think of our combat effectiveness?
It's very clear, don't make any more senseless resistance... It's extremely unwise for you to choose to resist or escape. Do you know the disastrous consequences of returning to the rear after a defeat? You will be captured by the Cheka.
Lock them up, throw them into concentration camps and all be shot... Instead of that, it is better to surrender now, serve the crime, and wait for the end of the war to slowly think of a way... Our Anjia Army treats prisoners preferentially...
..”
The loudspeakers kept shouting, but the tank crews who moved forward bravely still opened fire without mercy, destroying the bunkers and fortresses that tried to resist one by one, and used general-purpose machine guns to shoot at the fleeing Soviet soldiers in front.
Above the tanks and the armored personnel carriers that followed, Q1 and Q2 attack aircraft kept whizzing past, pounced on the deep battlefield ahead, and strafed the enemies gathered together. If they found trenches or barriers, they immediately screamed and screamed.
It dived down at high speed, dropped several aerial bombs, and set off a series of black smoke pillars that shot straight into the sky.
A large number of tanks and armored vehicles roared all the way, like a tide, driving past the Persian and Indian villages. Those wearing turbans, tight tops and long flared skirts or Indian-specific saris
The women in short skirts screamed loudly, with expressions of fear on their faces, looking for places to hide.
The livestock pens next to many houses were razed to the ground by artillery-operated artillery and aerial bombs dropped by the air force. Cows, horses, and sheep ran lifelessly in the fields. Many were directly hit and killed by tanks and armored vehicles, and then from above.
It ran over and left long bloody traces.
After the tanks and armored personnel carriers passed by, a swarm of personnel carrier trucks followed.
The mission of the tanks and armored forces is to push forward continuously, while the mission of the infantry is to clear out these villages and towns. Those troop transport trucks that had accepted the mission in advance stopped outside the villages and towns and jumped out of the trucks.
A dozen soldiers, armed with submachine guns, machine guns, and automatic rifles with bright bayonets, crouched and surrounded from both sides, and began to inspect the streets and alleys, searching for the remaining Soviet troops.
Due to the anti-revolutionary and suppressive actions carried out quickly after the Soviet and Japanese troops settled in, people in various places suffered brutal looting. The people were deeply resentful and actively cooperated. Therefore, the Soviet and Japanese troops were defeated.
The soldiers' search operation went very smoothly. It didn't take long. When the sun rose from the eastern horizon, Anjia officers and soldiers were already escorting large groups of Soviet prisoners all over the front line to the designated prisoner concentration point.
Collect.
When the Soviet officers and soldiers arrived at the end of the field, they squatted on the ground one by one, covering a large area in darkness. Their faces were darkened by the flames of war and gunpowder smoke, and only their two eyeballs and the teeth in their slightly open mouths were glowing white.
.
Due to another disastrous defeat, the morale that had finally been restored by the march into Afghanistan, Persia and India fell to the bottom again. Everyone's face was filled with expressions of frustration, shock, fear, humiliation or numbness.
An armored vehicle stopped next to the crowd. A female soldier with slightly dark skin and bright eyes and white teeth held a loudspeaker and said loudly in Russian and Chinese:
"Comrades, you are liberated! Next, you will be sent to Central Asia and Taiwan to undergo labor reform. As long as you perform well during the reform period, you will not only be fed and clothed, but you will even receive wages.
Have the opportunity to become a citizen of South China! You don’t know that there are millions of Slavs in South China, including nearly one hundred thousand scientists and researchers. You will find like-minded partners! Of course, if you want to return to China, we will also arrange for you
Smuggling back to the Soviet Union, our shipyard in the Caspian Sea has built several two-thousand-ton submarines, which can land at any area on the west coast of the Caspian Sea to ensure that you will not be discovered. Of course, if there is a problem in the Soviet Union, there is nothing we can do.
....."
While the female soldier was explaining, the fighter planes in the sky were still roaring at low altitude. Tanks, armored vehicles, cars, sidecar motorcycles, motorcycle tracked vehicles, and mules and horses on both sides were pouring into the lands of Persia and India like a tide.
There were constant muffled sounds of explosions everywhere, and there was a thick smell of gunpowder smoke, burnt smell, and the frightening smell of blood floating in the air.
The female soldier continued to explain the policy: "Comrades, I have said what needs to be said. Now, you have to single out the cadres hidden among you who are responsible for political ideology and supervision... Don't worry, you won't have any
If there is any danger, we will keep it secret for you in the future... The political commissars and Cheka personnel are too dangerous. They are very likely to incite rebellion and need to be detained separately... You
You must clearly understand the situation. If you resist and do not report, once discovered, you will all be executed, because we do not allow any behavior that resists transformation!"
...
"...The dragon flag rolls, the horse neighs, the sword energy is like frost... In twenty years, who can resist... How many loyal brothers and sisters are buried in a foreign land, how can
I will cherish my life to repay my family and my country... When the horse hoofs to the south, people look north... I am willing to defend the land and reopen the territory, and the majestic China will let all the four parties come to congratulate... "
The loudspeaker on the roof of a four-ton truck played the impassioned Anjia Army military song. The surrounding Anjia Army engineers rolled up their sleeves, some were simply shirtless, singing loudly while moving sandbags, equipment, and erection
Floating bridge and building anti-aircraft gun emplacements.
On the Atrak, Tezhan, Helmand, Malhe, Kabul and Indus rivers that lay across the army's path, engineers and soldiers were seizing the time to work hard.
After all, the pontoon bridge equipment of the pontoon bridge brigade is limited. After tanks, armor, cars and infantry pass quickly, they must quickly build a pontoon bridge to retrieve the pontoon bridge firmware so that it can be reused next time, saving time in battle.
A large number of Soviet and Japanese prisoners of war were disgraced and dejected, and began to do heavy work under the surveillance of machine guns: digging earth, transporting soil, carrying wood...
After those unpopular Cheka personnel and political cadres were selected, according to the plan, these prisoners of war were to be immediately escorted back to Afghanistan and Central Asia to undergo labor reform under the supervision of the engineering and armed police forces. However, the Soviet and Japanese troops collapsed
It was too fast, and the number of prisoners exceeded expectations. At the same time, these prisoners were more obedient than expected, so some of them were intercepted by the engineering troops and used as strong laborers. The progress of repairing pontoon bridges and roads is now much faster than expected.
Those personnel stationed in the Cheka and political cadres were put into prison vans and transported to Tashkent for centralized transformation. These people had firm beliefs and were very loyal to Stalin and Subu. They would not give in easily and could only be placed in areas with strong control.
areas, otherwise each would be extremely destructive.
...
In the Caucasus region, it leads from the hinterland of the Soviet Union to Baku, Azerbaijan and the Caspian Sea in Persia, and the Black Sea coastal railway runs from Cherkesk, Aguilar, and Zhaojikao over the Caucasus Mountains to Shuhumi, Gumbura, and Metabolism.
The main highways were all destroyed by strategic bombers. It was unknown how long it would take the Soviet army to repair these transportation lines, and they might be bombed again by long-range bombers of the Anjia Army Air Force at any time.
At the same time, in Tehran, Tabriz, Ardabil, Isfahan and other places, the sky has become a curtain of blood and fire.
Since almost all the Soviet air force was wiped out on the ground, the Soviet army lost its air superiority. Groups of B4 bombers flew through the sky, dropping bombs like raindrops. The city below seemed to explode, with smoke billowing everywhere.
, the fire is raging.
The Soviet army was not to be outdone. Anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns fired dense tongues of fire from the ground to the sky. Large black clouds continued to explode in the sky. However, because the B4 four-engine bombers were performing high-altitude bombing missions, the Soviet army's counterattack was weak.
, but was baptized by more bombs.
The entire Soviet army, from the front to the rear, was in complete chaos.
Continuous bombing is only one of the reasons. More importantly, as early as four days ago, soldiers from Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and other ethnic groups in the Anjia Army had successively penetrated into Persia and India. After the attack was launched,
, they immediately carried out various sabotage activities, assassinating Soviet commanders, blasting railway tracks, setting fire to cars, and blowing up communication facilities. The entire command system of the Soviet army was completely disrupted. Chuikov could only watch An Jiajun.
Keep moving forward without being able to do anything.
...
Xinjing, South China High Command.
In the war room, the phones were ringing one after another, officers were running back and forth, and the radio kept broadcasting the latest positions of divisions and regiments. On the large map of West Asia in the central command hall, several female officers who graduated from the Army Staff Department were hanging on their arms.
Scaffolding, using long poles to continuously place or remove various markers, makes the entire battle situation clear at a glance.
An Yi and a group of big guys stood in front of the map. Seeing that the black flag representing the Soviet army had not moved, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. An Yi opened his arms, stretched, raised his wrist and looked at his watch to see that it was already 10 noon.
At two o'clock, he turned around, smiled and said to Yang Fei, Liu Qing, Shen Ziling and others:
"There is no suspense anymore. Now the air control is completely in our hands. The enemy's troops on the border have been completely wiped out. In addition, the enemy cannot mobilize troops from the Soviet Union to reinforce the front. The troops stationed in Persia and India can only be defeated by us.
Defeat them all!
"Geng Guang, Deng Bin, Zhao Dongquan and the others are smart. As soon as my combat order was given in the morning, they went home to catch up on their sleep. Now it's our turn to rest... How about we have lunch together?
Are we going to break up again?"
"You go ahead, I'll keep an eye on you!"
Yang Fei said: "No matter what, the headquarters still has to leave people to sit in order to respond to frontline developments at any time. Huzi and the others are on the frontline and in the middle of the war. After all, they are not as clear as us bystanders. If any problems are discovered, I can point them out in time.
Come."
"OK!"
An Yi didn't force himself, turned around and walked out of the war room.
Arriving downstairs at the General Staff, without the protection of the air conditioner, scorching air waves hit his face. The scorching sun burned his skin and made his skin ache. Shen Ziling couldn't help but complain: "Everything is good in Nanhua, but the summer is too long and too hot.
!”
Liu Qing smiled and comforted: "Why don't you say it's not cold in winter? Only this kind of weather can meet the growth needs of crops in three seasons a year and provide us with sufficient food. From this point of view, we should praise it
!”
After listening to the conversation between the two, An Yi couldn't help but smile, nodded and said:
"Liu Qing is right, but when we build a larger territory in the future, we can consider moving the capital. Don't think about it in India. The temperature in summer is up to 60 degrees, and many people die from the heat every year. Afghanistan and Siberia are also hot in winter.
It’s too cold and it’s really hard to find a good place...”
