Chapter 339: Assemble

With the arrival of the first reinforcements, the number of armed forces in the city of Isim exceeded six thousand. There are more than 3,000 regular troops here www.biquge.info and the rest are militia.

The T72 and T80 all arrived, and the vast majority of the tanks were T72s. This tank star fruit did not like, and in the era of the large-scale use of individual anti-tank weapons, the armor of such a tank did not look strong enough. The best T90 tank of the Russian army is not yet in service, of course, the prototype has long been available, and mass production will have to wait for two or three years.

The best here are the T80 tanks, which, alas, are armed with only five hundred units in the entire eastern part of the Urals. It was produced at the tank factory in Kharkov, which, alas, now belongs to Ukraine. The rebels also had a small number of such tanks, and in previous wars, that Chekov's unit did not have such weapons.

As the army arrived, the city of Isim quickly turned into a huge military camp.

Intelligence showed that the momentum of the rebel expansion had stopped, and with the offensive of the Western Front's Putin forces on August 19, the rebels were of course unable to withstand the sharp blades of the Russians, and they began to shrink strategically after the defeat in the first battle. The plenipotentiary commander of the counterinsurgency, Putin, is the future president, and only star fruit knows that he can be president at present.

At the new combat meeting, Pugachev pulled both Daming and star fruit over. He already knew that the peacekeepers from China, the commander of which was the adoptive father of his own little partner. There is a Chinese proverb called "Father and Son Soldier in Battle", and this is what it says. It's good that with this relationship, everyone will be very united.

He hung a large map on the wall, his baton in his hand and pointing. "Now our army is launching a full-scale offensive on the Western Front, and the enemy is beginning to march towards Tyumen and Tobolsk. But I speculate that Putin's forces will be at a stalemate as they prepare for the siege, and that the rebels absolutely expect that our forces will not bomb the city. ”

Valodya listened to her father, who was an experienced veteran officer. The situation was indeed as he had speculated, and the first day of the assault on Putin's forces was overwhelming, but when they began to capture some small towns, the rebels did not hesitate to pull the engulfed people out. Human shield, this is the last thing the Russian army wants to face. The rebels used a large number of hostages to buy time for themselves, which made the Russian army suffer a lot, and the pace of the war slowed down as a result.

The Russian army is a bogeyman, but even so, the war is still going on, and the Russian army is still advancing. These small and recalcitrant towns were conquered with great force, sometimes at the expense of victory. In the end, the Russian army chose to attack directly, after all, counterinsurgency is the most important thing. "The people will understand us, and if the country is gone, then the people can only face an even bleaker future." He comforted his subordinates in this way, collecting the bodies of the dead peaceful residents after the battle and burying them with dignity.

The soldiers cast their anger on the rebels, and it was their rebellion that caused a series of disasters.

Pugachev also received an order from the Western Front to assemble troops, reorganize them, and send all the troops that could be mobilized. "Our army is a mixed bag, and there are only 3,000 people who can really fight a difficult war. And there are refugees here, and China's friends have to maintain order. ”

"So the time for the war to start is going to be delayed?" Da Ming asked.

"It is precisely in this way that there is a big gap between us and the Western Front compared to military strength."

Pugachev was not reconciled to this, the pace of reinforcements was too slow. A lot of ammunition is needed to attack the fortification, a lot of troops. Now the most capable of fighting are the garrisons of Irkutsk, who are now gathering by train.

Then I had to wait, in the calm days before the war, it was not bad to be with my family. Of course, the good food is the food of the peacekeeping troops, and the cooking rounds of the Chinese peacekeeping troops are of course Chinese food, and the ingredients in the camp are very complete if you stir-fry the vegetables.

The meal was in the big tent, and Hu Chenghe was very happy to see his daughter holding a small rice bowl and holding a huge chopsticks in her little hands.

Star fruit is eaten with relish, and one of the dishes is a potato beef stew that goes well with rice. This is fresh beef, and some farmers bring their cattle to sell it, and there are even bold vendors who set up temporary shops and even sell carbonated drinks, but the prices are very high.

"Child, eat slowly, beware of choking." Hu Chenghe looked at his daughter intoxicated, she seemed to be a little tanned, even her pigtails were still so playful.

Chinese children eat here, and the rest of the soldiers gather in twos and threes, except for patrol tasks, and everyone is not as particular as the Russian army and the militia.

Star fruit loves this meal so much that the lunch on August 20 was the first time that Chinese peacekeepers had made Chinese food since they were stabilized.

While the meal was in progress, Pugachev made a surprise visit, accompanied by soldiers with plates. The plate was covered by a pot lid, and the star fruit pricked up its little nose and sniffed carefully. "It's the taste of steak, and pepper, pepper steak?"

"So Mr. Pugachev, are the steaks you sent now the same three cows from the fellow you bought before?" Da Ming asked.

"Exactly, I think we really need to treat everyone who evacuated Kutabitka with us."

A cow looks huge, but when the internal bones are removed, the edible part is much reduced. This is said to be a piece of cake for hundreds of big men to eat, and there is no way but to make a big mess of stew and make beef soup with the dried meat that was preserved before. Of course, the good steak part should be poured out for the commander to eat.

The soldier placed the plate on the table and opened the lid. Meat cooking is relatively simple, it is a piece of pure meat with condiments.

"It's really bloody, why do I think this meat looks like it didn't bleed." Star fruit is a little choppy.

"I also wonder if this meat is too fresh." Da Ming then asked.

Pugachev replied, "This is a good steak, T-bone, this is for you four children." ”

"But this meat. You know, we're still young, so bloody for us to eat. How ripe is this, I don't want to eat raw meat. Da Ming grinned.

Pugachev shrugged, and indeed maybe the meat was fried for too short. "Put it in a pan, 20 seconds on the front, 20 seconds on the back, and of course you have to have red wine to eat steak, and you can throw all the red wine in Kutabika."

Carambola popped, this meat is also very simple. But even so, I can't help but appreciate it, I can only sigh that Lao Maozi is wild enough. Hu Chenghe instructed everyone to accept kindness, and besides, people are not incapable of digesting raw meat.

The soldier cut the meat into small pieces and distributed them to the children, and looking at the meat that seemed to be bleeding in front of them, Daming and star fruit had no choice but to eat it. The smell of blood is there, the meat is particularly tender, and the taste of pepper and beef is also unique.

Mu Xin was quite adaptable, so Ding Chaoyong didn't complain anything. When I was with Sakurako, I didn't eat a lot of Japanese food, and the sashimi there, and even the lively little octopus that was just pinched with the ink sac, both of them stuffed it directly into their mouths.

The meat is eaten in the mouth, and the blood of the ox bubbles out. Carambola took the opportunity to make a grimace, and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth. "It's not funny." Daming made her honest, but Hu Chenghe laughed happily.

During the days of waiting, Pugachev was elected commander by various people, and such a decision was informed of the Western Front. Putin did not object, such a figure was supported by many rebels, and with his previous qualifications, he could indeed take on a heavy role. As a result, the defenders of the city of Isim were temporarily called the "Oilfield Division".

The troops continued to build, and by 21 August the first volunteers from Tuva and the Irkutsk army had arrived. Helicopter shipments have also become more frequent, with 100 RPG26s loaded with thermobaric warheads delivered during a daytime cargo mission on August 20. This is almost the largest output of our own factory.

On 22 August, a fierce battle raged between Putin's army and rebels on the outskirts of Tyumen. The rebels are not soft persimmons, this war is a fight in the same room, and both sides know each other quite well. The difference is that the Russian army has fighter jets, while the rebels do not. But the rebels' surface-to-air missiles managed to shoot down two MiG-24s of the Russian army, and with the fall of the plane, the Russian army had to temporarily stop the offensive.

Putin knows that if there is a full-scale attack on Tyumen, then it can still be won, but the price will be high. He ordered the troops assembled in the east to go into battle as soon as possible, and Pugachev agreed.

On the evening of the 22nd, Tuvan President Dukbayev personally arrived in Isim, followed by a large number of trucks and even some cars. A large number of militiamen got out of the car, and the army rushed thousands of miles to help in this very rudimentary way. "We have more than 5,000 people arriving this time, and the follow-up troops are still on the ground." He was confident that 800 of the Tuvan reinforcements were regulars, the rest were militias of the old Red Army, and even herdsmen and hunters.

Most of the weapons of the troops are pulled directly from the arsenal, and the weapons have strong firepower, and there are also a large number of RPGs, the most of which is RPG7.

"It's great that you guys are here, the Federation has asked us to attack along the highway and flank Tyumen."

The eastern division, which is currently composed of the oil field division, the 163 division from Chita, the 334 division from Irkutsk, as well as the Tuvan army. China's peacekeepers will no longer be on the front line, and Hu Chenghe's task will be more of a logistics task, maintaining peace after the war and rescuing refugees.

The generals set the day for the attack, and at midnight on August 24, the troops marched along the road, aiming at the city of Tyumen.

On the night of August 23, star fruit was very energetic, and the brother and sister stayed outside. Both had been resting for the afternoon, and now many of the soldiers had gotten up to make final preparations for the military operation.

"Brother Zhong is our logistics captain, and I think I should ask him to make a batch of high-powered thermobaric bombs. To charge a larger amount, throw it with an airplane. ”

"I thought you were going to say something, and I'm still thinking about weapons." Da Ming shrugged his shoulders and shivered in the cool breeze of the night.

Before departure, Zhong Haokai was finally informed by the radio that the so-called new bomb was made according to the ME500 bomb, but the internal composition was high-energy fuel.

At 0:00 a.m., a team set out, and for a time the barracks made a lot of noise. Tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, rocket-loading artillery, recoilless guns, and quadruple high-speed trucks are driven at the same time. The soldiers clapped in neat formations under the moonlight and the stars, and followed the heavy weapons with loaded guns. First of all, Yalutorovsk and Zavodoukovsk were captured.
