The 12th Army won the jackpot with a full house. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 However, their mechanized troops have also entered the end of the motorcycle hour, and if they are not overhauled and replaced, they may have to come out of the big basket next. At this time, the Russian army had already retreated into the Yekaterinburg line, Marshal Timoshenko replaced the old Marshal Budyonny, and Timoshenko was on the Southern Front and Fedor?? Feng?? Bock has played many times, although he has suffered some losses, but he is passable compared to other defensive lines.

However, in the face of China's almost rogue tactics of using air superiority to bully others, Timoshenko is better than Budyonny by using elastic defense, reducing the concentration of personnel and equipment, making the defensive line thicker, using sticky tactics to absorb the offensive forces of the Chinese National Defense Force, exchanging space for time, and trying to stop China's rapid advance with losses.

General Xu Haichuan * of the 12th Army of the Chinese Defense Forces, who had already gathered his troops to maintain the line of communication from Tyumen to Omsk, transferred to the task of maintenance. And the 7th Army, which was transported from the rear, quickly took the place of the offensive position of the 12th Army, and continued to put pressure on the remnants of the Russian Eastern Front, forcing them to retreat on the Yekaterinburg line.

The 6th Army, led by Peng Guanghui, turned to Astana and launched an attack on the southern end of the Russian Eastern Front. However, the 6th Army's attack this time changed from the previous practice of the Chinese National Defense Forces first attacking with air strikes and then shelling, and then the army aviation pulled out the nails and the armored troops cleaned up, and directly launched a desert storm under the cover of the A202 wing of the army aviation tactical support wing. This time, instead of a whizzing attack plane or an attack helicopter with weak firepower, the Army Aviation used a new high-altitude suppressor of the "Mountain Patrol Beast," a new weapon of mass destruction

The Rangers are piloted by 12 crew members, of which five officers are the chief and co-pilot, navigator, fire control officer, and electronic warfare officer, and seven soldiers are the mechanic, TV/infrared detector operator, and loader (the howitzer on board is manually loaded) gunner.

Although the "Mountain Patrol" low-altitude press looks like a transport aircraft on the outside, there is a hidden killing machine inside. On the side walls behind the cockpit are two 20 mm Vulcan rifel-fired rapid-fire guns, which can rain 7,200 shells per minute at the target. When performing the task of fire suppression, the gunners had to use shovels to clear the mountains of shell casings.

The "Mountain Cruiser" low-altitude press is also armed with a 40 mm Bofors cannon and a 105 mm low-bore howitzer. The howitzer can "evaporate" targets at a distance of 1,200 yards, and the huge recoil caused by the gun's firing can even change the course of the aircraft, so the cabin is also specially equipped with a brake. When the fire controller shouted "fire", the howitzer braked violently backwards on the rails and reset with the help of hydraulic buffers, which were then reloaded. The 105-millimeter shells fired by this gun are loaded with 5 pounds of high-explosive* explosives and can be fired at a speed of 1,548 feet per second (about 470 meters per second) at a target with a shrapnel kill radius of up to 1,500 yards. Therefore, the title "Angel of Death" is not an exaggeration for the "Mountain Patrol" low-altitude pressor.

Due to the fact that the anti-aircraft firepower of the Red Russians was not strong except for important cities, these transport planes, which were originally less survivable, were enough to deal with ground targets, causing great damage to the personnel, vehicles, and materials of the Red Russian army. The Wehrmacht's Army Aviation applied to the Royal Air Force to convert a partially modified C7 "Planetary" transport aircraft into a new generation of "flying gunboats" to replace tactical attack aircraft with a load capacity and flight performance that could hardly meet operational needs.

In the same year, the first "Mountain Cruiser" low-altitude suppressor A was modified at Lanzhou Air Base, and a telescope-type night vision device was installed on the front door of the cabin, and the first generation of forward-looking infrared equipment was installed in the front of the landing gear room, and several Gatling cannons were installed on the fuselage. The prototype uses an analogue fire control system. In March of the 22nd year of the Taichu Dynasty, the prototype went to Red Russia for a 90-day combat test. Subsequently, the "Mountain Patrol" low-altitude suppressor began to be modified in batches and put into the northern battlefield, and it was often mixed with the A4 "Scythe" attack aircraft during combat.

The initial model of the "Mountain Cruiser" low-altitude press used a variety of machine guns from 7.62mm to 20mm, and the mass-produced H model used a 105mm howitzer, an improved 105 howitzer from the army, with an anti-recoil device, a Forbos 40mm machine gun, two 20mm six-barreled Gatling guns, and sometimes some machine guns. In addition, the G-model, which was also being modified in the laboratory, replaced the 20mm gun with a 25mm five-barreled Gatling gun. These weapons are controlled by advanced detection and fire control devices, including advanced multi-seat fire control radars and thermal imagers. These fire control devices include a side-looking multi-mode attack radar, which can be used not only to search for and aim targets, but also to measure the hit points of 40mm and 105mm shells, compare them with the aiming points, and then synchronize the aiming correction of the guns to improve the hit rate.

Under this almost perverted aerial fire suppression, the defensive positions of the Red Russian army were almost washed, and the rumbling "Snow Leopard" tank group was not something that the T34s could contend with. This combat main battle tank with a total combat weight of 45.5 tons, a length of 9.09m, a width of 3.27/3.42m, a height of 3.00m, a maximum speed of on/off-road: 55/30km/h, a maximum travel of on/off-road: 400/220km, a crew of 4 people, equipped with a 105mm 48 times the diameter cannon gun; 2x7.6mm machine gun with a cabin load of 105mm: 68 rounds, 7.6mm machine gun rounds: 4200-4800 rounds. The climbing degree is 30 degrees, the height through the vertical wall is 0.9m, the width of the trench is 2.45m, and the wading depth is 1.9m. What makes the Red Russian army mad the most is that the armor plate of this tank itself has 50-150 mm homogeneous tungsten alloy armor, and a layer of explosive reactive armor is hung outside, this kind of armor block at an angle of 35 degrees will be tightly protected by the front and both sides of the tank turret and hull, not to mention that the 76 mm tank gun cannot penetrate even if it fires at the top of the armor plate, even the 152MMM-10Model1938/ of the KV2 The 1940 howitzer can only knock out the reactive armor of this tank at a range of 300 meters, and it can also knock over the tankers inside, but such an opportunity is too rare, after all, the "Snow Leopard" can accurately hit such a cute thing with a big head from 800 meters away. The KV2's rugged armor is a layer of paper in front of the tail of the 105mm tungsten alloy slug that pierces the bullet.

In this armored battle that broke out in the Kazakh steppe, it was often chasing while fleeing, but the accurate artillery bombardment of the fleeing side almost knocked out the opponent's tank one by one, and the chasing side did not even have a chance to fight back, even if there was an occasional hit, it was bounced off by the armor at a large inclination, and when the armored commander of the Red Russia found that his side had become a minority, and all the KV heavy tanks had become smoldering tanks, the pursuit game changed the rules, However, this time the pursuing side made the fleeing side very helpless, not only the problem of not being able to penetrate and not being able to defend it, but even the speed of the other party's pursuit was above its own side, and even a few wheeled armored vehicles under the command of the other party could not outrun the opponent's tanks, and when the 5th Guards Panzer Division of the Red Russia was turned into a pile of bonfires by the 32nd Panzer Division of the Wehrmacht, several other infantry divisions and the 33rd Panzer Division of the 6th Army had arrived at the perimeter of the Kostana Line.

Uncle Georgia, the Red Russian Tsar, was already so angry that a heroic Guards tank division was wiped out before it could hold out for two hours, even if it was a German devil who ran into an army group. However, looking at the reports from the front line, what opponent's tanks are moving like flying, the armor is thick and solid, and the firepower is accurate and strong, and it is not even possible to confirm the specific number of destroyed opponents' tanks. According to the reports of the Chekas, it is very likely that not even a single tank of the opposing side has been killed. Such a result is simply too embarrassing, but what makes Zhugashvili boss even more headache is that the Chinese defense force seems to be not only such a perverted tank force, but also their air force, and now those huge silver-white bombers have begun to appear in the sky over Moscow, they cruise and drop bombs at altitudes that destroyers cannot reach at all, and bomb factories, stations, warehouses, and houses of Red Russia into ruins. This kind of bomber called "Yinpeng" really has no opponent in the sky of Red Russia, and they do not even need to be accompanied by escort planes, and they bomb strategic points of Red Russia as if they were going to work every day, and they will wake up the residents of Red Russia from time to time at night. Red Russia's current industrial base was destroyed by the Germans, and the only bit of its family capital was moved to Kirov, Kazan, Samara and other places, but after only two years, it was included in the bombing range of the Royal Chinese Air Force, which made it even more difficult for Red Russia to supply weapons. If it is said that millions of men between the ages of 15 and 45 can still be mobilized to go to the battlefield in terms of manpower, but the weapons are already stretched, and now the gap of tanks and planes on the western front is getting bigger and bigger, and even the most abundant artillery has begun to become nervous, and in some minor areas, the firepower of the Russian army has been so weak that even the Romanian devils can't do it, and if this continues, even if the Germans are attracted to the British Isles by the British and American counteroffensive next spring, Red Russia will not be able to resist the Chinese offensive alone.

Just as the so-called blessing and misfortune do not go alone, just when he lost his temper and was contemplating with a pipe, Marshal Zhukov came in with a gloomy face.

"Comrade Dzhugashvili, we are in big trouble." Although Zhukov has always been calm and composed, this time he also panicked. "I just received a report from Comrade Chuikov of the Southern Front that the Republic of Georgia was suddenly attacked."

"Is it the Iranians or those Workers' Party bunnies in Turkey?" Hearing that his hometown had been invaded, Zhugashvili couldn't sit still, you must know that the south is the most stable rear of Red Russia, so that Red Russia is tantamount to being attacked on three sides, and there will be no peace.

"Comrade Chuikov reported that, according to reports from the front, it should be part of the 8th Army and the 9th Army of the Chinese Defense Forces, which are advancing very fast and have already crossed the defense line of our troops in the Transcaucasia and are approaching the Baku oil fields."

"How long can they hold out, Chuikov?" Dzhugashvili understands very well that the Southern Front after several transfers is already an empty shelf, only a few reserve divisions are not yet formed, and in the face of the Chinese Defense Forces of the two group armies, they will not be able to resist at all, and they may be able to rely on the advantage of the mountains to buy a few more days, but in the face of the two sharp knives inserted from the eastern foothills of the Ural Mountains and Transcaucasia, what can they send troops from there to rescue?
