Chapter 318: The First Day of Battle

Chekov conveyed the order that the soldiers who were lying in ambush in various buildings were ready for battle, and at the same time a dozen tanks were organized, which they were to take as the main attack. "Our goal was to blow up their big iron gates, after which the tanks would break in, and the infantry would follow the tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.www.biquge.info He commanded.

The commanders of several tanks questioned whether such an onslaught would have been ambushed by the armed men in the oil field. Chekov shrugged and said, "They are either too stupid or too brave to dare to stop us, remember, you were once a torrent of steel, and you still are." ā€

Yes, the torrent of steel, what a title that I yearn for and are proud of. After the collapse of the USSR, the army shrank rapidly, and now everyone has a new idea, follow in the footsteps of General Luskov, at least return Tyumen to the people. And the Tuva oil field is obviously a big obstacle, and now there is no turning back, and for the sake of the new Tyumen, the Tuvans in front of them have to be defeated.

"Headquarters headquarters, enemy tanks are massing on Sevastopol Street, they look like they are going to make a head attack, over."

"Headquarters received, all squads pay attention to concealment, once the war starts, you quickly enter the battle, over."

……

Fifteen tanks lined up in a column, one engine after another, and the loud noise brought a great sense of oppression.

Da Ming looked at his watch, it was already seven fifty, and the battle was about to begin. He saw that Ding Chaoyong was already a little eager to try, but he also knew that what could really deal with enemy tanks was armor-piercing shells and RPGs. The main gate was guarded by a battalion, which was equipped with more RPGs in response to tank attacks, and the 122 howitzer was also loaded with armor-piercing shells.

"Ding Chaoyong, you wait, it will definitely be shelling later, you lie down under the dirt slope and don't poke your head out." Da Ming Dao.

"Don't worry, I listen to you, I'm also afraid that I will be targeted by the enemy if I show my head."

Da Ming looked at this and smiled reluctantly, God knows if this thing will be cowardly when the war starts.

Preparations are also being made in the oil fields, with mortar positions erected and controls for gas tank bombs and directional blasting being removed.

Eight o'clock in the morning

With Chekov's order, fifteen T72s set off, the tracks kicked up dust and shuttled through the roads of the city, and the first tank appeared in the periscope's field of view. "All ready for battle, they're here!" The commander of the first battalion ordered all soldiers with RPGs to be ready to shoot.

Five, seven, fifteen tanks all appeared, and behind them were some infantry. Then a group of infantry fighting vehicles appeared, they formed a column, and the first three tanks opened fire.

The loud explosion knocked over the large iron gate of the oil field, but fortunately there were no soldiers guarding it. Iron Gate is the biggest weakness of the oil field, but it can also be exploited.

Ten soldiers armed with RPGs were lying in ambush in a trench not far behind the iron gate, and at this moment they suddenly appeared and pulled the trigger of the bazooka on their knees.

Ten RPG22s flew towards the head-to-head tanks, and the huge explosion disgusted a large amount of dust, and the tanks were also drowned in smoke.

Most of the people were stunned by the sight, and a large amount of rubble was scattered in the sky, and the steel helmets of the soldiers crackled.

"Did you hit it?" Ding Chaoyong asked.

Da Ming ignored him, because the battle had already begun in full swing.

The soldiers were firing at the smoke, and the mortars began to fire shells. Regardless of what happened to the tanks that were attacked in the smoke, more RPGs were firing in that direction.

Yevlov took the walkie-talkie and questioned a squad hidden in the city, asking them to explain the situation of the enemy army. After learning the information, he reported to Da Ming: "It seems that the enemy is also startled, but they show no signs of retreating. ā€

"If they retreat, they won't be the former Red Army." After all, Da Ming only stretched out his rifle, the so-called blind shooting, and most soldiers were like this, using barrage to make it difficult for the enemy to move an inch.

The smoke cleared, the three tanks were paralyzed, and the burning wreckage could be seen from the periscope, and the barrels were bent. But a large number of other armored targets are moving in a roundabout. They could not be allowed to continue the attack, but the enemy's infantry and armored vehicles had already begun to charge.

The infantry attacked behind armored vehicles, and in this battle Chekov threw two battalions, which were enduring a large number of flying bullets from the direction of the oil fields. Some of the soldiers who were lying in ambush on the roof of the building began to shoot indiscriminately at the oil fields, and the bullets hit the ground creating a large amount of dust, but the men were immediately killed by the snipers.

"All the squads, find a way to take out the enemies on the rooftop, and you attack them from behind." The commander of the first battalion ordered.

At the same time, the oil field defense line was also firing desperately, and bullets crackled on armored vehicles and tanks. As a stationary battery, the oil field T72 opened fire, targeting the tracks of enemy tanks. In a tank battle between the two sides, the exposed oilfield tanks were hit, and all sorts of things were welded thanks to the frontal impact, and scrap metal flew around for a while.

The howitzer fired flat, and a high-explosive shell hit the flank of the tank in the face, and the huge explosion opened a large hole in the tank.

Da Ming poked his head out slightly, only to see that it was really a mess outside. This is war, the legendary purgatory. The rebels are still on the offensive, apparently with six armored vehicles gone. If they continue to advance, they will step on anti-tank mines.

As expected, they attacked desperately, running all the way against the RPG attack, and then the tracks pressed some preset mines. Magnetic mines blew through the tank's turf and tracks, and one tank was even killed, killing a dozen infantry behind it.

The huge explosion and the air wave hit, Da Ming only felt that the huge wind was actually blown down by the air wave. He rubbed his head, "It's so scary, I almost hung up!" Ding Chaoyong lifted him, Da Ming looked at him, it turned out that this thing was not afraid.

In fact, Ding Chaoyong was not afraid at all, but very exciting. At this moment, many people have forgotten their fears, and those mobilized soldiers are boiling with adrenaline one by one, and many of them have bloodshot eyes. The rebels were like that, and so were the defenders, bullets flew in just a hundred meters.

"Quickly reload, one armor-piercing bullet, ready to fire!"

"Reloaded!"

ā€œŠ¾Š³Š¾Š½ŃŒļ¼ā€

The armor-piercing shell hit the shield of a tank, which was still advancing, and then it also crushed the mine, and the track was blown off and broke down. The anchored tanks exposed the infantry, and several machine guns from the oil field side fired desperately.

The firepower of the oil field is very ferocious, especially the high-powered bazooka like the RPG26. Although this thing cannot directly shatter the cannon shield, a huge explosion can cause a strong shock and knock the tank driver unconscious.

The snipers are named one by one in the confusion, but their position is too special and soon revealed.

Da Ming turned his head violently, and he saw that the tower that was originally used to distill crude oil was hit, and there were his own people on it! Now they can't be controlled, some people have been wounded, and there are poor fellows who have gone crazy and exposed themselves, and have been hit in the center of the eyebrows by bullets that don't have long eyes.

The wounded and the dead were all pulled into the bomb shelter, and then it was time to test Mu Xin.

But now Da Ming doesn't have time to care about so much, at this moment he is also an ordinary soldier, holding an AK74 in his hand to strafe the enemy's approximate position.

Nine o'clock in the morning

The battle had been going on for an hour, and the short hundred meters became a nightmare for the rebels. Chekov found that the enemy's fire was so fierce that he could no longer attack so strongly, and he ordered his troops to take a standoff.

The soldiers also sobered up in a frenzy, and each one had to pay a certain price for each one, and anyway, there were already several burning tanks in front of them. There was even a tank driver who turned into a ball of fireball, and the rebel soldiers had to give the poor partner a merciful refill shot.

That is, at nine o'clock, the various squads that were ambushed in the city began to move. They successively took out the enemy's troops on the upper floors with surprise attacks, and then began to attack the enemy's rear with RPGs and grenades.

Chekov was greatly annoyed by their actions, why did the soldiers not find this group of hidden rats for a long time?

The current situation of the battle was clearly very unfavorable for him, and Chekov ordered the soldiers to begin a slow retreat. The five squads also began to retreat, but they reluctantly exchanged fire with the enemy on the way back. They had to retreat to the oil fields, because Pugachev had already given the order to blow up the two nearest buildings when the enemy's vanguard was halfway to retreat.

"Don't shoot indiscriminately, the enemy is retreating, save ammunition."

The soldiers calmed down, and Da Ming withdrew his gun. The unlucky barrel of the gun can already be grilled, and when you spit at the mouth, the saliva quickly evaporates.

Ding Chaoyong also wanted to see the situation, thinking that the enemy had retreated, he tentatively poked his head out, but fell down all of a sudden.

ā€œWCļ¼ā€ Da Ming was taken aback and crawled over to help Ding Chaoyong, only to see that his helmet had a dent. "It's so scary, you almost hung up!"

Ding Chaoyong only felt that his brain was a little messy, he was pushed by a huge force just now, and it turned out that a ricocheting bomb hit his head, and it was really like there would be no steel helmet.

The retreating squad shot as they retreated, and they were the most elite troops, crossing the line of fire in a hail of bullets. Their own mortars only have 100 shells, but they still fire 10 more rounds for cover.

"Don't shoot our people, our squad is back!" The commander of a battalion ordered that the soldiers be given cover, and the retreating rebels had no time to pay attention to the pesky covert attackers.

The squad attacked from a commanding position, with a few poor infantry fighting vehicles hitting the top cover, and the turrets flying sideways became barricades. The retreating armored units had no choice but to ram them directly, and they faced a new annoyance, and the two buildings suddenly collapsed in a series of explosions.

The explosives blew up the load-bearing walls, and the gas canister bombs caused severe deflagrations, and the powerful blast blew down many of the retreating rebels, and then buried many people in the collapsed buildings.

Huge amounts of smoke and dust can be seen through the periscope. "Everyone covers their mouths with their clothes, the smoke and dust are coming!"

Da Ming poked his head out and glanced at it, it was really his own side that pressed the switch slightly, and the radio signal detonated the explosives. Alas, it is a pity that the residential buildings of the residents were destroyed in this way, and these collapsed earth and stone must have caused great damage to the enemy.

The dust hit, some people were coughing, and many were hiding from the dust and rocks falling from the sky.

Ten o'clock in the morning

The fierce exchange of fire was over, and the casualties were really not small for Chekov, and the two battalions he sent probably more than 200 people did not return. "Damn, I underestimated the resistance of these people." There was no choice but to make the troops stay away for the time being.

Twelve o'clock in the morning

The smoke and dust dispersed in the wind, and I saw that it was a real mess outside. A brave soldier climbed onto the distillation tower that had been damaged by the explosion, holding a telescope. The ruler of the mirror indicates that the enemy has been hiding at least two kilometers away, and should be blocked by the building.

In the rare post-war time, everyone was hungry in the fierce fighting. The soldiers did not dare to relax, they still held on, maybe there would be no fighting for the whole day.
