"Comrades, work harder! The enemy's position is ahead! The company commander, Captain Malafeev, greeted the soldiers in his rugged voice. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Russian soldiers on the run did not hesitate to echo: "Forward!" ”

Running fast with a bulky bullet bag on his back is a very physically demanding thing, but the young private Andrei Kontsevich, who belongs to the 1st Guards Infantry Division of Soviet Russia, is a man who is willing to suffer a little bit and not run out of ammunition when facing the enemy, not to mention that the weapon he uses is not the old Mosin Nagant manual rifle, but a brand new PPS-40 submachine gun - this fully automatic firearm is very different in appearance from the Schmeiser submachine gun and Beretta submachine gun that are heavily equipped by the Western Allied armies. But the principle is basically the same, and the same pistol cartridge is used, which can be equipped with a 35-round magazine and a 65-round drum, and in terms of actual combat performance, the PPS-40 is enough to crush the Japanese army's one-type submachine gun!

Suddenly, a shell fell with a strange scream, and the explosion point was more than ten meters away. Out of the corner of his eye, Konzevich saw a flash of flames, and several figures actually flew up, and the huge impact was like an invisible man hitting him from the side, and suddenly he stumbled, and then faced down with an embarrassed dog gnawing mud.

The aftermath of the explosion still echoed in his ears, Konzevich felt a little dazed, and his faith in the battle seemed to be shaken, and at that moment, Captain Malafeev's loud voice lifted his and his comrades' spirits.

"Medic! Take care of the wounded! The rest of you, rush with me! Towards victory...... Advance! ”

After continuing to advance for two or three minutes, the various companies began to disperse and advance to different areas, and Konzevich followed his company to a warning position, which was about 100 meters lateral, with no second-line trenches and no strong firepower, and was only connected to the main position in the rear by a few winding communication trenches.

"The whole company enters the trenches, clears the remnants of the enemy, collects ammunition, strengthens the position, and guards against the enemy's counterattack!"

As soon as Captain Malafeev finished speaking, Konzevich entered the Japanese trench with a submachine gun, which was full of corpses and stumps, and escaped from hell on earth, but not without survivors. Konzevich turned his head to see a young Japanese soldier glaring at him, covered in blood, dying against the wall of the trench, seemingly holding a "melon" grenade in his hand. Seeing this guy move slightly, Konzevich was almost shocked, that thing could blow himself up and several comrades around him. Driven by the instinct to eliminate danger, he turned the muzzle of his gun and saw a shuttle, and the sound of gunfire jumped briskly through the trenches......

Having cleared the remaining enemy in the trenches, the Russian soldiers quickly mounted the Dzhegalev light machine guns. That coherent rattling sound immediately filled the entire trench - this machine gun has spent 16 years since its finalized production, its simple structure and reliable performance, its most striking feature is the round cartridge that can hold 47 rounds, the disadvantage is that it is large in mass, and the heat of the barrel during continuous firing causes the re-entry spring under the barrel to be heated and change the performance, affecting the normal operation of the weapon.

After calming down, Konzevic finally had a chance to take a good look at the battlefield. The east bank of the Haraha River is a very vast area in a broad sense, and the Soviet-Mongolian coalition forces and the Japanese-Manchurian armies are mainly fighting for the wasteland south of Hailar, north of Arshan, and centered on Nomenkan, with a battlefield width of more than 200 kilometers, enough for hundreds of thousands of troops to fight here. After the First Battle of the Haraha River, the Japanese and Manchurian armies built a large number of field fortifications along the border line, and this place with only coordinates and no name on the combat map was a defensive system dug in the open area, the rudiments of this defense facility can be traced back to the Russo-Japanese War more than 30 years ago, and it was upgraded and carried forward in the Balkan War and the First World War, and at the beginning of World War II, the British army that implemented the home defense integrated the trench defense and the urban defense war. However, the German-Irish coalition army used the resolute armored cluster tactics and infantry assault tactics to achieve the victory of the spear to penetrate the strong shield, and it was precisely when the top command of the Soviet Russian army saw this that they made up their minds to spare no effort to develop their own armored forces and mechanized infantry.

Since the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese army has plunged into one war after another in which the weak attacked the strong, and won one brilliant victory after another. After the Russian army broke through to the first-line positions, the Japanese troops deployed in the second-line trenches and reserve positions soon launched a tactical counter-assault. Seeing that the Japanese officers were armed with war knives, and the soldiers were holding bayonets and submachine guns, and the Soviet and Russian soldiers in the trenches did not hesitate to shoot with machine guns and rifles. Trained riflemen were able to search for and hunt down enemy officers or submachine gunners in the chaos of the battlefield, light machine gunners fired in bursts or short bursts into dense areas of Japanese infantry, and heavy machine gunners were unafraid to strafe ......

Submachine gunners like Konzevich remained silent at the height of the gunfire, after all, the effective range of such automatic weapons was much shorter than rifles and machine guns, so the submachine gunners pressed to the edge of the trenches and watched the screaming Japanese soldiers with apprehensive gaze.

It is indeed a good choice to take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Soviet Russian army to carry out a tactical counterattack, but on this battlefield, the Japanese army is simply unable to reverse the situation of strong and weak. Under the fierce and dense fire of the Soviet and Russian troops, the Japanese soldiers who had engaged in the counterattack fell one by one, and in the end, few of them were able to get close to the lost front-line positions.

"Comrades, for the sake of the motherland, for the sake of victory, rush to ......"

Led by this high-pitched voice, the Russian soldiers rushed out of the trenches and crushed the enemy's counter-assault with a morale-like assault. Hearing Captain Malafeev's command to attack, Konzevich decisively followed his companions into the attack, and while he pushed forward, he kept repeating the shooting action - pulling the trigger, releasing it, moving the muzzle slightly, and pulling the trigger again, and the dense bullets were like a big broom, easily sweeping away the "garbage" left on the battlefield.

"Osaku Murata! Daisa Murata! Oh no! The main position was lost on all fronts, the second line was broken through, and the Russian chariot troops were about to attack here! ”

In a field fortification on the east bank of the Haraha River, more than 20 kilometers north of Arshan, a Japanese adjutant in an khaki uniform was panicked to report to his superiors on the situation at the front. Looking out through the shooting hole, the position was filled with gunsmoke, and there was a burst of gunfire in my ears.

Dazuo didn't say retreat, nor did he say that he wouldn't retreat, and the embarrassing atmosphere made people feel very depressed. At this moment, the phone rang, and a tall and thin military officer picked up the microphone, "Hey, this is the headquarters of the 21st Wing...... What the? General Jingtai? Hi! Daisa Murata, General Itai wants to talk to you! ”

Hearing the words General Jingtai, the beard teleported to the phone, and grabbed the microphone from Jun Cao's hand: "General, I'm Murata...... Yes, the Russians are attacking fiercely, they have put at least two main divisions in my defense area, the Imperial officers and soldiers guarding the main position have basically died, and the reserve positions are still in our hands...... Yes, General, rest assured, we will defend our positions to the death until the last man shoots a shot! ”

Hearing this last sentence, the officers in the command had different expressions. Hanging up the phone, Dazuo was silent for a moment with a cold face, then pulled out a pistol from the holster and roared: "The imperial army only has the heroic souls who died in glory, and there are no cowards who are greedy for their lives to escape!" Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come to be loyal to the Emperor! Pick up your weapons and use your chests to stop the Russians' guns! ”

War is a wonderful catalyst, and without too many words, the officers picked up their guns one after another, and rushed out of the headquarters with Dazuo, and even the least determined ones bravely moved forward in this atmosphere of righteousness.

More than an hour later, the gunfire on the second-line positions of the 21st Wing of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army tended to subside. Soviet infantry with bayonets began to clear the newly occupied positions, but unlike the brutal warfare of the Fusilier era, the surviving Japanese officers and soldiers were able to save their lives as long as they did not make a visible gesture of resistance, but even so, some of the wounded Japanese soldiers still pulled grenades in the hopeless retreat.

After breaking through the defensive line of the Japanese 5th Division, the 3rd Mechanized Army of Soviet Russia, which served as the attack arrow, continued to advance in depth non-stop. In the open field, they easily eliminated the Japanese artillery positions deployed in the rear, and some of the Japanese gunners were knocked out by the machine guns on the Russian tanks before they even had time to resist.

After a galloping march of more than 20 kilometers, the 6th Guards Tank Division, the powerful vanguard of the 3rd Mechanized Corps of Soviet Russia, entered the Japanese reserve assembly position on the shore of Lake Ujur with lightning speed. In addition to the 22nd Division and the 27th Division, the Japanese troops deployed here also had one of the most elite field aces of the Japanese army, the 16th Division that had ravaged the United States and Britain in South Asia and Australia. Under the sudden and violent onslaught of the Soviet armored cluster, tens of thousands of Japanese troops assembled as reserves were beaten to pieces.

In such a heavy battle, the C-35 medium tank and the BA-10 heavy armored vehicle equipped by the Russian army fully demonstrated their performance characteristics, and the M-7 four-wheeled off-road vehicle and the N-38 half-track personnel carrier, which were used to carry the Russian infantry to carry out rapid assaults, also played a very active role. The skilful mechanized coordinated tactics dealt an almost brutal blow to the Japanese infantry - the Imperial soldiers who jumped out of the trenches with bundles of grenades and temporary containers filled with various container******s were often swept down by the Russian infantry with submachine guns before they could advance two steps, and when the Russian tanks ran over the trenches unstoppably, it was the Russian infantry armed with rifles and submachine guns who cleared the remaining Japanese officers and soldiers on the position as quickly as possible.
