Chapter 13
The morale of the Soviet Red Army, which had already invaded one-third of the city, was high, and in their eyes, although facing desperate resistance from the Poles, it might not be long before the city was overcome. The Red Army soldiers bent over and followed the rickety tanks on the rubble, moving forward together.
But no one could have imagined that the Poles would suddenly launch a counteroffensive, and at this moment of dawn, suddenly the sky changed dramatically.
Bursts of continuous flashes of light, as if to be followed by the memory of countless thunders. The sound of the platoon artillery bombardment followed the flash and was transmitted to the eyes. The soldiers of the Soviet Red Army, who were still on the offensive just now, stopped one by one and showed a look of fear.
As a veteran on the battlefield of domestic banditry, this kind of artillery fire is called "hell" by the veterans!
In the "hell" formed by the intensive bombardment of artillery of various calibers, it is extremely difficult to safely hide and save one's life.
The dense sound of artillery, which rang in the ears of all the soldiers at this time, was as continuous as the "whirring" of the wind when a storm was coming. At this moment, the Polish soldiers who were stationed in the fortress of the front building shrank down. The soldiers of the Soviet Red Army, who were the attackers, hid their bodies in those hidden places.
Immediately after that, the shells fired by the platoon guns that shook the air flew into the air, and the ruined buildings were blown into rubble in the roar of explosions again and again. The debris was stimulated into the sky by the explosion of the "One Reading" and then rained down.
The earth shook and trembled as if it had become a swamp, and no one who had fallen into this bloody hell could stand. In the violent explosion, a cloud of flames burst out in the night. The tanks, armored vehicles of the attackers burned under the blow of a swarm of shells. In the dust of the explosion, the shadow of death hung over.
Under the cover of platoon artillery fire, in these places illuminated by flames, groups of Polish soldiers wearing square military caps launched a decisive counterattack!
They emerged from the ruins of buildings, from places that seemed impossible to live. In the flash of artillery fire, groups of Polish soldiers could be seen attacking forward under the cover of mortars, bazookas, and flamethrowers.
In the dark, the artillery support of the Soviet Red Army and the counterattack of tanks were affected. Instead, infantry attacks are more powerful in melee combat that takes place in the dark. Machine guns and submachine guns are more useful in the dark of night, as they shoot tongues of fire that form a stream of light in the night.
At the same time, in the resistance hubs bypassed by the Red Army, large groups of infantry sprang up to launch a coordinated attack. Fighting in the dark, especially a bloody battle. Hand-to-hand combat can be seen everywhere in parts of the city that have been reduced to rubble.
Polish soldiers in square hats screamed, and the weapons in their hands collided with those of the soldiers of the Soviet Red Army. At this point, they were surprised to find that the weapon used by the other party was almost identical to the one they used.
As they fell to the ground, looking at the terrible things and waiting for the medic who didn't know when it would come, some sadness flashed through their minds. They seemed to understand something, and in the footsteps of the Grim Reaper, they seemed to see the smile of the "King of War".
The Red Army soldiers, under heavy artillery fire and on their flanks, could not effectively prevent the Polish soldiers from counterattacking them. The tanks suffered considerable losses under the heavy blows of the flamethrowers and bazookas of the opposing infantry, and in the end they had to retreat.
By the time dawn came, most of the city of Warsaw had returned to the Polish army. Subsequently, Joseph as commander-in-chief. Pilsudski sent such a telegram.
"Warsaw is still in our hands, and every defender is still fighting!"
Such a short telegram flew through the vast expanse of space and reached the northwestern part of Kazakhstan in the blink of an eye. The country is now a very lively region, not because tourism is booming, but because there are too many troops concentrated here.
There are the Bundeswehr of China, the US Army, the "Russian Royal Guard", the "Thunder International" and some troops from the United Kingdom and France from the other side of the Pacific. The latter two are just two regimental combat units that are unwilling to send only the armies of the United States and the Chinese Federation to represent the League of Nations. As for the United States and the Chinese Federation, they are all lightly armed troops, and their function is to maintain peace.
However, the telegram that had just arrived had little to do with them, on the contrary, the "Russian Royal Guard" and the "Thunder International" began to work intensively on combat equipment shortly after the telegram arrived.
The armies of the League of Nations and the Chinese Federation had no reason to strike at the Soviet Red Army, even though they had violated the territory of Poland and Western Ukraine, which wanted independence. But this is also not a reason to strike at a sovereign state. In addition, these armies were reluctant to strike at the Soviet Union, since no country was willing to conduct excessively costly military operations in peacetime.
The "Russian Imperial Guard" and the "Thunder International" do not have this problem, one can justifiably serve the orders of the Russian royal family, and the other is a military operation because the Soviet Union has not paid the price that should be paid. All of them had good reasons to launch military operations, but they were all just collecting debts.
That's enough for Barton to be greedy.
As a U.S. official who had conducted military "exchanges" with the Chinese Federation, Patton was promoted, and now he has a general star on his steel helmet. The mission was not very appealing to Patton, as it was a low-force peacekeeping mission that was not much of interest to him compared to war.
Therefore, he spent most of his time in the joint command post of the "Thunder International" and the "Russian Royal Guard" led by Kolchak, which was about to engage in a high-intensity war. Of course, he can't go to war, but let's see.
"It's really an enviable thing!"
Patton looked at Cai Ye in front of the battle sand table, as well as Guderian, Rommel, and Manstein, and when he spoke, his tone was very greedy.

————————————————————————————————————— at this time, Cai Ye, who had returned from the United States, would assume the post of chief of the General Staff of the Chinese Federal Defense Forces in the future. As mentioned earlier, the current Chief of the General Staff of the Federal Defense of China, Jiang Baili, will become the full Minister of Defense of the Chinese Federation, and will be engaged in a civilian who controls the army from a higher level.
As for Cai Yi, as a fairly pure soldier, that kind of desk work will never be a suitable job for him. Now, as the future Chief of the General Staff of the Bundeswehr, this time, he will be in charge of the joint command composed of "Thunder International" and "Russian Royal Guard" to jointly carry out this operation. As his last battle before he became commander-in-chief of the Federal Coalition forces, as far as Cai was concerned, he hoped to get a good score.
When he was studying in the United States, he was surprised to find that the founders of the "air-ground integrated warfare" and "armored clustering" theories studied at the West Point Military Academy were all Tang Yunyang. Deep in his heart, he couldn't help but have deep doubts about Tang Yunyang's origins, especially the world's first aircraft carrier and every aircraft carrier battle group in the world, all of which came directly or indirectly from him, which couldn't help but make him ask such a question.
"Is it possible, is there such a comprehensive military wizard in this world, this is really too hard to believe!"
As the future Chief of the General Staff of the Federal Defense Forces of China, this operation has an important place in Cai Yi's heart.
"Anyway, this battle is not easy to fight. Even with the addition of the five brigade combat units of the 'Thunder International' and the units of the 'Russian Royal Guard', the military strength still cannot be compared with the number of troops of the Soviet Red Army on the Warsaw front. Even if we take Brest and build a defensive line along Bug, we will still face a very strong enemy force! Especially the number of tanks, the number of tanks in the Soviet Red Army was almost twice as many as ours! ”
Of course, Tang Yunyang knew the pressure in Cai Yi's heart, and what he said was indeed the truth on the battlefield in front of him.
"Brother Songpa, of course I know the situation on the battlefield. But you've also seen the telegram from the Polar Fox detachment. The forward supply base of the Soviet Red Army is in Brest, and as long as we occupy it, their supply will be completely cut off! You have to know what the daily consumption of 800,000 people is, and if these supplies are lost, then ......"
But Cai Ye didn't wait for Tang Yunyang to finish speaking, and he immediately retorted.
"But this is pure risk, if we can't take Brest, you also see the Soviet Red Army fighting in Warsaw, and the city that is held back by the infantry corps is not easy to take. If we act rashly, then it is very likely that the 'Russian Royal Guard' and 'Thunder International' will suffer heavy losses! ”
Although the "Thunder International" and the "Russian Royal Guard" fall under the jurisdiction of the Overseas Operations Command, this time the controversy is certainly not a question of orders and disobedience, but a debate between two members of the China Renaissance Party.
However, Cai Yi, who experienced the Western Front War of World War I with Tang Yunyang, is he doubting Tang Yunyang's military talent here? Or does he simply have ulterior motives?
Let's tell you about the next chapter!
