Lieutenant Ivalev, the commander of the artillery company of the 44th Regiment of the KGB Border Service of the Gualifatun, who was stationed in Guarifatun, did not die, and he watched his artillery company lose all its artillery in a short preparation for artillery fire by the squadron. He felt that this winter was too cold, cold from the heart out, cold and suffocating.

He knew that after such perfect artillery preparation of the squadron, the troops of the Chinese mechanized infantry would immediately follow. His own artillery company can no longer complete the artillery support for the Houtun border defense company. It may be that the border company in Houtun is long gone.

Now he has completely lost contact with his superiors and friendly forces. There's no point in staying here any longer. So he decided to immediately use the four remaining cars to evacuate the 66 officers and men who had survived the artillery fire to the Малый Алин battalion headquarters.

As for the seriously wounded, there is no way to take care of them, so they can only be bandaged briefly. If the battalion headquarters can have the strength and still have time, come back and pick them up.

In the cold wind, the long and desolate night, in the darkness before dawn, Lieutenant Ivalev, the commander of the artillery company of the 44th Regiment of the Border Service of the KGB of the Soviet Union, abandoned the bodies of his comrades, left behind the seriously wounded who were crying in the ice and snow, and took 66 lucky officers and soldiers in four cars, and fled in panic amid the scolding of those seriously wounded. He was afraid that the Chinese would find out and invite the chilling artillery fire. He ordered the driver not to drive the headlights, and slowly retreated to the battalion headquarters by relying on the reflection of the snow.

How easy is it to run?

A "Hunter" helicopter gunship of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Army Aviation Regiment, which served as reconnaissance and night search to provide cover and intelligence support for ground offensive forces, spotted Lieutenant Ivalev's four vehicles retreating in the direction of Broken Mountain Tun in Hebei Province through the on-board infrared detection system. The "Hunter" helicopter gunship immediately made contact with the 1st Ground Battalion, which was moving rapidly, and after confirming that it was not its own vehicle, it launched an attack on the four vehicles below.

The hunters on the "Hunter" gunship put down their helmet sights and "stared" at the four fat "prey" that were rushing below, and the two 40-hole rocket nests on the gunship were synchronized with the optoelectronic turret, and as the eyes of the hunters' helmet sights rotated, they tightly locked on the prey. Immediately afterwards, the air light cavalry "Hunter" helicopter gunship carried out one hovering attack and one horizontal attack on these four prey in a very chic manner.

With the flash of fire, a 57-millimeter explosive anti-personnel bomb flew towards the four trucks led by Lieutenant Ivalev with a long tail flame and began to run wildly, accompanied by a fierce explosion, those insignificant shrapnel ruthlessly devoured the fragile lives of the people on board.

In the blink of an eye, the 4 Soviet trucks were enveloped in flames and turned into 4 burning fire clusters. On the white snow, like four huge bonfires, the car compartment lay horizontally and vertically, with burning corpses lying on top of each other, and fragments of human bodies scattered everywhere around the car.

A loss may turn out to be a gain. At this time, should the seriously wounded Soviet KGB soldiers who scolded their company commander because they were abandoned in the ruins of the camp be more grateful to their company commander for their special attention?

At dawn, people saw four piles of charred car wreckage with burnt racks, and those charcoal-like corpses still emitting wisps of green smoke, and they felt the cruelty and ruthlessness of the war

From the air, a bird's-eye view of the white snowfield, the four irregular charred black stains look so ugly.

The commanders and fighters of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the People's Liberation Army carried forward the spirit of brave combat and continued to march eastward after Lianke and the two places. Advance to the next target - the headquarters of the 44th Frontier Detachment of the 36th Regiment of the KGB Frontier Service of the Soviet Union and two border companies, where Marin Alintun, Hebei Duanshantun and Duanshantun were entrenched. But they didn't expect to run into trouble this time.

At the intersection of the three Tun Y-shaped highways, nearly 1,000 Soviet civilians, some of whom were women, the elderly, and children, gathered in the east. They lay on the road one by one in the bitter cold wind, using this special way to stop the advance of the [***] team and defend their homeland.

Although the Soviet Union made full preparations for China's attack, the Soviet High Command made serious mistakes in estimating the strength of both China and the Soviet Union, and did not have a sufficient understanding of the equipment of the Chinese [***] team, as well as a series of tactics such as "information shielding and long-range strikes" adopted by Deng Feng had no concept at all, especially China's electromagnetic suppression and thermobaric bombs effectively destroyed the "nervous system" of the Soviet Far East. and the complete loss of air supremacy, resulting in the rapid collapse of the entire central and western border defense system, and heavy losses in the troops.

In this extremely grim situation, all units of the Soviet army can only do their own thing, adjust and supplement according to their own understanding and regulations within the scope of their own capabilities, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack the [***] team.

But it takes time to adjust and replenish, especially if there is no radio contact. Therefore, the 44th Regiment of the Border Service of the KGB of the Soviet Union came up with such a bad idea, and they urgently mobilized the peasants of five or six collective farms in the vicinity to organize this special "people's armed force" with the party system. Using people's care and sympathy for women, the elderly, children, and these vulnerable groups to form a "human shield" to achieve the advance of their sluggish [***] team, adjust and downsize the Soviet army, organize the mobilization of troops, redeploy, repair the defensive line, and buy some time.

Faced with this situation, Yuan Mude, commander of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the People's Liberation Army, a young veteran who participated in the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, really can't "play" anymore. Although during the reconquest of Outer Mongolia, on the bridge over the Hun'er E River south of Sukhbagar City, the Soviet army also used a situation similar to today's "lying on the road" to stop the advance of the 2nd Mechanized Infantry Division of the 1st Army of the People's Liberation Army. But it was Soviet soldiers, and it was easier for both sides to be soldiers, and it didn't matter if they had a big fight. But what about these defenceless women, children, the elderly, children? You can't fight these people with soldiers armed to the teeth.

Yuan Mude immediately reported this intelligence to the regiment and the regiment to the division

Fifteen minutes later, an armed armored propaganda vehicle with a tweeter caught up from behind. It was constantly broadcast in Russian: "Comrades of the Soviet diaspora, we are the propaganda vehicle of the Political Department of the Far East Corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. We are instructed to announce to you that the Military Control Commission of the Eastern New Area of Heilongjiang Province of the People's Republic of China has announced that this is the territory of the People's Republic of China, and that you, as overseas Chinese living here in the Soviet Union, must strictly abide by the laws of the People's Republic of China. The quality of the surname is bad, and the consequences are extremely serious. We advise you not to be deceived by the authorities here, and for your safety, you must leave here immediately.

We will not drive you away like the Russian government and army drove out the Chinese people who have lived here for generations 59 years ago, and those of you who are willing to continue to live on this land will enjoy the same rights and treatment as the Chinese as long as you renounce your original nationality. For those who do not wish to stay here, we will pay you enough for the relocation and hand you over to the Soviet government at the right time and place

Whether you go or stay, you must stop your criminal behavior at once and give you 15 minutes to get out of here now. If you remain obsessed with your actions, we will have to take the necessary action against you to put an end to your criminal acts, and you will be fully responsible for all the consequences arising therefrom."

Now replay it again: "Comrades of the Soviet diaspora"

After the propaganda vehicle of the Political Department of the Far East Corps broadcast the announcement of the Military Control Committee of the Eastern New Area of Heilongjiang Province, some of the people stranded here quietly left here with their children and the elderly.

"Comrades! You can't go! This is the country laid for us by our fathers and brothers, and it must not be lost in the hands of our generation. If you leave like this are traitors to the Soviets, the KGB will never spare you! At this time, a middle-aged man in his 50s stood up and shouted.

"That's right! Secretary Nikolachada was right. We cannot go, we have not yet completed the glorious task entrusted to us by the party. "A Soviet schoolgirl of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slender body and a pig-belly face that is extremely incommensurate with her beautiful figure, a large chin, and a large gap between her two front teeth, also stood up and shouted hysterically in her slightly immature voice: "We will fight the Chinese invaders here to the end until the final victory!" Ulla! Great USSR! Ulla! A group of people also shouted.

The 50-year-old secretary Nikolai Chada shouted hoarsely to the crowd lying on the ground: "We must all learn from Bediolaneva and defend our hard-won land with our blood and lives!" Don't be afraid of these Chinese, they are the most inferior people in the world, they eat anything like mice, even the garbage oil poured in the gutter, they will only reproduce like rats to maintain the existence of their inferior population. They only tremble, kneel, kowtow in front of our great Russians, this is the essence of their culture for thousands of years, their cowardice is melted in their blood, they did it 100 years ago, and today, it will never change because they cut off the pig's tail in the back of their heads. I'm sure they'll be the same 100 years from now. Chinese have a cheap temper, they naturally like to be slaves"

At the time of Secretary Nikolachada's speech, a camouflage helicopter gunship painted with the August 1 military insignia was covering more than 30 Dongfeng 8-ton military off-road trucks with camouflage tarpaulins on their carriages and snow chains on their wheels, speeding from west to east on the snow-covered rough highway toward the Y-shaped intersection.

In the carriage sat more than 600 armed backbone militiamen of the Red Frontier Army Reclamation Farm of the Heilongjiang Production and Construction Corps. At 2,000 meters from the intersection of the Y-shaped highway and 100 meters where the Soviets gathered, the first Dongfeng military off-road truck stopped, and Han Biao, commander of the militia division of the Red Frontier Army Reclamation Farm, jumped out of the cab of the car and loaded the pistol with a "click". Then he limped to the back of the car.

He said to a big man from the Northeast wearing a set of camouflage old military uniforms who ran towards him: "Second donkey, you lead your first company to intersperse along the woods on the left side of the road, and meet with the second company at the "crotch of the road", surround these old hairy people, and tie them up for me. Cut those old hairy people who are not convinced, and cut them to death. Sound no more? He looked at his watch and said, "10 minutes later, start moving." Don't forget how your grandfather died! ”

"Yes," the second donkey agreed, then turned around and organized the team.

Then he said to another 28-year-old or 9-year-old man who had just arrived with a lean handicap in his hand: "Sangazi, you take your second company along the woods on the right side of the road, don't forget what your grandmother told you." You don't need to be polite with Lao Maozi. ”

Then he pulled out a small crowbar more than 1 meter long from the carriage and checked it in his hand. Limped and led the three companies forward.

Don't look at Han Biao, he is not an ordinary soldier, he is Yang Guang's comrade-in-arms when he was fighting bandits in the Ryukyu Islands and the Indian Special Service. In 1947, he joined the Northeast Mingzhuo Allied Army at the age of 19, and later participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea with the 39th Army.

Later, when the Chinese People's Liberation Army formed special forces, because of his bravery in combat and the fact that he learned some martial arts as a child, he was selected to be sent to the special forces school, and after six months of training, he was assigned to the Ryukyu Corps of the Armed Police. Fight bandits with Yang Guang there. At that time, Yang Guang found that he was bold and careful, fast and ruthless, good in martial arts, and very good in mountain and forest combat.

Yang Guang went to the Indian Special Service to be responsible for training the PKI (Maoist) guerrillas at that time, and needed a group of instructors, so Han Biao was transferred to the Indian Working Committee. When cooperating with the 6th Army to march into the Gangetic Plain in India, he led 10 special combat members of the People's Liberation Army of the South Asian People's Republic to go deep into the rear of the Indian army to conduct special operations, and was wounded in the leg.
