On September 29, the 9th year of the Republic of China, the [Chinese] army launched a [Chinese] national division, accompanied by two divisions of the White Guards, to attack Garetk.
"The Great Battle of Kdonsnoyarsk..." breaks out! [..com]
On this day, the intensity of the attack by the Chinese and Russian coalition forces was not what Frunze and the Red Army commanders had imagined. Throughout the day, they only launched a few symbolic attacks. Once they were counterattacked, they would immediately
Evacuate the position.
But on the next day, the attack by the Chinese and Russian coalition forces suddenly became stronger.
Countless soldiers launched a tsunami-like attack in Garetk, launching the most ferocious impacts on the Soviet Red Army positions again and again.
In several positions, tragic hand-to-hand combat took place under repeated attacks by the Chinese and Russian coalition forces.
Tens of thousands of people were hanged at Garetke.
Subsequently, both the Chinese and Russian coalition forces and the Soviet Red Army began to frequently mobilize troops to this area.
By the 1st, both sides had unknowingly assembled more than 100,000 heavy troops in this area.
And this also allowed Frunze to be convinced: the decisive battle between the Chinese people has begun!
Frunze handed over the heavy responsibility of defending this area to Voskanov's 12th Army. In his opinion, Voskanov, an excellent commander, would definitely live up to his expectations.
In the Mirny area, the cavalry army commanded by Semyon Mikhailovich Budyonny also encountered a large number of White Guards.
The cavalry army commanded by Budyonny attacked first. After several consecutive attacks, they repelled the attacks of the White Guards and stabilized the situation in Mirny.
The failure of Mirny's sneak attack convinced Frunze that Kdonsnoyarsk was the only battlefield!
For this reason, he specially praised the young staff officer: Comrade Meretskov in front of all commanders.
By October 2, the Garetke offensive and defensive battle had entered its most brutal stage.
The 100,000 troops gathered here were engaged in the craziest battles on every inch of land. Attack, defense, bloodshed, and death were carried out almost every minute.
The behavior of the Chinese was a bit strange. Their air force was not dispatched frequently, their artillery was far less powerful than the Russians imagined, and only a few of their armored vehicles appeared on the battlefield.
But all this did not attract Voskanov's attention.
In his opinion, the air force, artillery, and tanks on the battlefield are not the decisive factor in victory or defeat. It is the soldiers' tenacious determination that ultimately determines the outcome of the war.
Voskanov issued a fatal order to his subordinates: All heroic Red Army commanders and fighters must firmly stick to their positions and must not give up an inch of position until there is a living person on the position.
For the Soviets, everything for the Bolsheviks!
But under this death order, the 12th Army of the Red Army indeed performed very tenaciously.
They were almost risking their lives to protect every inch of their position.
The fiercest battle was at the place called "Z position" by the Russians, where Voskanov arranged a brigade of defense forces. The brigade commander was Major General RC Sislovov.
From the first day when the battle of Kdonsnoyarsk broke out, this place became the focus of competition between the two sides.
In three days, Sisvlov and his brigade officers and soldiers repelled at least thirty enemy charges. Although the brigade suffered heavy casualties, the Z position was still firmly in the control of the Red Army.
in hand.
But in these three days, Sisvlov lost at least half of his strength.
Fortunately, when the whole brigade was at its most passive and in the most critical situation, Commander Voskanov promptly reinforced them with a regiment of troops.
Sismovlov's opponents were Li Jinglin's 11th Division of the Northeast Army and two White Guard divisions, the 6th and 9th Divisions.
Li Jinglin has long been accustomed to the tenacity of the Russian Red Army!
He was the first batch of officers to enter Russia to fight, and the 11th Division was also the first batch of troops to enter Russia to fight. In previous battles with the enemy, they fully understood the enemy's tenacity.
Sometimes those Russians won't give up until the last moment.
The 9th Division of the White Guards was almost defeated, and their division commander was actually killed in front of the position. To be honest, they did their best.
At this time, a mysterious army appeared on the battlefield.
This is the special operations unit of the Presidential Guards that followed Zhang Xiaohuai to the Russian battlefield!
Their commander is Dr. Chen, a lieutenant colonel. Li Jinglin also has no way of knowing his real name.
"Dr. Chen..."
As soon as Li Jinglin opened his mouth, he was quickly interrupted by Dr. Chen: "No, I am not Dr. Chen. My current name is Qiusnovsky. I am a Russian officer. My unit's external designation is 'Gao'
General Kolchak's Guards..."We are here to avenge General Kolchak."
Li Jinglin was a little confused, why should he be so mysterious?
He saw that the people brought by Dr. Chen had all changed into the uniforms of the White Guards, and then distributed strange-shaped masks to some officers.
"This is a gas mask. Each officer and soldier of the 11th Division will be assigned one. Before that, please withdraw all the 6th and 9th Divisions of the White Guards to the back." Dr. Chen said expressionlessly.
Li Jinglin became more and more puzzled. He had no idea what Dr. Chen and his troops wanted to do-...
The attack was stopped, and the 6th and 9th Divisions of the White Guards, which suffered heavy casualties, were pulled back to rest and recuperate. The 11th Division of the Northeast Army, which still insisted on the front line, was each given a gas mask.
A large number of mortars and artillery shells appeared on the front line.
Sislov and his soldiers did not know why the enemy's attack suddenly stopped,m,
Dr. Chen has been observing the wind direction. At 6 pm on October 2, when Dr. Chen finally waited for the wind direction that satisfied him, the "Garetek Gas War" began.
A large number of mortar shells roared towards the Russian positions, but there was no earth-shattering explosion as the Russians imagined.
The sound of the explosion was softer, completely different from a standard explosion. But after each explosion, a slightly greenish-yellow cloud of poisonous gas slowly rose from the mouth. No one among the Russians on the position knew what was going on. In this
When a cloud floated in front of them, they began to suffocate and gasp in pain. Many people fell down and suffocated to death.
Their eyes, noses and throats felt as if they were being burned by acidic substances...
"Poison gas, poison gas, the enemy attacked with poison gas!" Sisvlov shouted loudly.
It was too late, when I discovered this, it was already too late.
Those who were not dead grabbed their throats desperately, screamed in agony, and ran around desperately.
They often can't run a few steps before they fall to the ground, then their bodies twitch constantly, and finally stop all efforts--
On the mortar position, Dr. Chen observed everything on the opposite side expressionlessly, and recorded the most detailed data. He needed these data, and with them, he could further improve the power of the poison gas.
There have been many experiments with cattle and sheep before, but in Dr. Chen's opinion, cattle and sheep are completely different from living people.
An officer who followed Dr. Chen to the battlefield kept taking pictures of these "General Kolchak's Guards..." wearing White Guard uniforms...
After all the shells were fired, Dr. Chen nodded with satisfaction. Then he made a gesture, and his subordinates quickly began to pack it up in an orderly manner.
"In about an hour, you can launch the attack." Chen %% said: "The resistance you encounter will be very low!"
Li Jinglin, who witnessed all this horror, could only nodded numbly.
Oh my god, what is this? Why did so many enemies on the opposite side die in just a blink of an eye?
Now Li Jinglin is a little lucky. Fortunately, Yu Shuai defected to the National Government early. Otherwise, how could they use this to deal with their own Northeastern Army?
For Dr. Chen, this is just a simple experiment.
He didn't even care how many people died.
Such experiments will be conducted several times on the Russian battlefield, but the scale will be controlled within a certain range. The purpose of their visit this time is just to test the power of the poison gas on the [real] battlefield.
With the most detailed data available, some of the shortcomings of gas attacks can quickly be corrected.
Dr. Chen left with his people, leaving the rest to the professional soldiers.
Dr. Chen's instructions were for one hour, but this still did not make Li Jinglin completely reassured. He waited for half an hour longer before ordering his 11th Division to attack the opposite position.
The Russians on the ground were still resisting, but they were already very weak.
Without much effort, Li Jinglin's troops rushed into the position, but the sight that appeared in front of them was something that these soldiers would never forget.
Countless Russians died, and they must have been filled with pain before they died. Their various postures can tell it all.
Those who were lucky enough to survive had almost only half their lives left. They could not even raise their bayonets and fight the enemies who rushed into the position.
Brigadier Sisvlov also died. It is not known whether he died under the poison gas attack or died in the face of the attack.
In short, he is dead.
He worked hard on "Z position" and commanded his officers and soldiers to fight for three full days, and had just received reinforcements from a regiment. Just when he was a hundred times more confident, the enemy's poisonous gas attack came without warning.
The situation began.
Maybe he was unwilling to die.
But no matter what, the [Chinese] Chinese successfully captured "Z position" and annihilated an enemy brigade.
And this was also the first major victory achieved by the Chinese in the Kdusnoyarsk Battle!!.
