Just when the two countries were intensively planning to purchase large-scale heavy machine guns and artillery from the Chinese Empire, Wang Huanzhang led the four main divisions of the Chinese People's Army to advance eastward and southward step by step. Fastest updates

Wang Huanzhang led four divisions all the way east, crossed Harbin from Qiqihar, and arrived at the Mudanjiang River in Jilin in just one month, less than 400 miles from Vladivostok in the east.

Wang Huanzhang has always been cautious in leading his troops, and all the reconnaissance battalions under his command were scattered out, and they quickly learned of the deployment of the Russian army along the Ussuri River, two artillery regiments plus an infantry division, lined up in the area near Shuangchengzi, as for the vicinity of Vladivostok, it was protected by Valerian's three infantry divisions plus two artillery regiments, and the entire east bank of the Ussuri River was all the positions deployed by the Russian army, and if you want to pass the Ussuri River, you must definitely fight.

Wang Huanzhang frowned, obviously a little surprised by the deployment of the Russian army, he didn't expect that these Russian troops would dare to leave Vladivostok and directly deploy their troops to the Ussuri River, don't they know that the main force of the 200,000 Russian army has been wiped out

Commander, I'm afraid things are a little difficult to handle

Qian Zhengdao, the commander of the Ninth Division, said in a low voice.

Wang Huanzhang nodded, obviously, both of them have realized the problem, now it is freezing and snowy, the Russian army is standing in all the key positions on the east bank of the Ussuri River, once a big war is launched, the Russian artillery shells will definitely blow up the ice on the surface of the Ussuri River, and the Chinese People's Army will not be able to cross the river smoothly at all, especially the artillery, huge artillery, it is difficult to move on the ice, once the ice is fractured, it will be troublesome

From Vladivostok to Shuangchengzi, the east bank of the Ussuri River is full of Russian artillery, and it is too difficult for us to cross the river, and we are afraid that our every move is already under the surveillance of Russian scouts.

Qian Zhengdao said in a deep voice.

Hehe, if they want to stop us from crossing the Ussuri River, they also underestimate me Wang Huanzhang

Wang Huanzhang sneered, even if they occupy this section of the Ussuri River, then they only have three or four divisions in the north, and they have all been hit by our First Army, and they are no longer as brave as they used to be, so they can defend this section of the river, what about the north

Qian Zhengdao asked in surprise: Commander, what do you mean to break through to the north, throw off the defense of the Russian army, and then forcibly cross the river

Wang Huanzhang laughed and shouted: "Righteous way, do we only have one way to break north, that doesn't show our brothers' ability?"

Qian Zhengdao was stunned and said: Boss, don't you want to attack directly from the front, in this case, if we attack from the front, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties

Who said that it was necessary to launch an attack from the front, and only a fool would do that if he forcibly crossed the river

Wang Huanzhang replied, didn't their Russian army see our every move clearly, then let's let them see it more clearly, the whole army moved towards the opposite side of Shuangchengzi, the eighth division and the 56th division were preparing to launch a feint attack on the Russian positions opposite the Ussuri River, hehe, two artillery regiments, give me an all-out attack, covering artillery bombardment, feed them a meal of shells first, after being rushed by us, the Russian army will naturally fully shrink the front and withstand our offensive, it will not take two days, We can tear a few big holes in the Russian defense line on the other side, and when the time comes, they will still be able to block us from crossing the river

Qian Zhengdao nodded and agreed: Yes, the commander's idea is very good, to make a hole in their defense line, however, the entire east bank is full of Russian troops, we want to take the opportunity to rush over, but it is not so easy, we may face the attack of the Russian army at any time, on the river, there is no cover at all, how many people we have, we can't help but have a gun

A sucker

Wang Huanzhang scolded and scolded: Are you stupid We now have five cavalry regiments behind us, do you keep them as long as there is a loophole in the direction of the Russian army, and five cavalry regiments rush out, and the river is only six or seven miles away, even if we can't run with all our strength on the river, in less than a quarter of an hour, five cavalry regiments can rush across the Ussuri River, a quarter of an hour, even if the Russian army can see it, how can it take a quarter of an hour, the Russian army can't react at all As long as our cavalry regiment rushes across the river, Two cavalry regiments pinned down the main force of the Russian infantry division, and the two cavalry regiments launched an attack on the Russian artillery regiment

Qian Zhengdao's face turned red, wiped it, and forgot the main cavalry force behind him, all the cavalry of the Third Army Corps were brought over, that was four cavalry regiments, plus the cavalry regiment transferred from the First Army, five cavalry regiments, almost 7,000 troops, as long as it can break through the river defense on the opposite side, then the Russian army will only be unlucky

Wang Huanzhang turned around and shouted coldly: "Order, the 10th Division of the 55th Division is moving southward, and the front of the troops is directed at Vladivostok, and Valeryan's main force is simply in the area of the Vladivostok defense line, and it is not allowed to advance to the north. Order, the 56th Division of the 9th Division moved towards the north, launched an attack on the positions of the two Russian artillery regiments controlled by Jangovich, and attracted all the two artillery regiments of the Russian army's northern front to the opposite bank of Datuchuan Town, five cavalry regiments, two deployed in Dongning Town, and two deployed in Old Black Mountain Town, once there is a flaw in the Russian defense line, then launch a surprise attack on the opposite bank, rush across the shore, and launch a surprise attack on the Russian artillery The 27th Brigade and the 28th Brigade are ready to attack at any time, and we must first eat this infantry division of the Russian army

Yes, Commander

Qian Zhengdao hurriedly agreed.

Wang Huanzhang sneered: As long as the two divisions of our northern front successfully cross the Ussuri River, then the overall situation is decided, the 56th Division of the 9th Division is advancing rapidly to the south, and the 55th Division of the 10th Division is moving towards the north, throwing off Valerian's main Russian army, realizing the plan of crossing the river from the north, and then advancing north from Shuangchengzi, encircling and annihilating all the Russian troops in Vladivostok, and not a single old man is allowed to let go

Wang Huanzhang only led and commanded relatively few large-scale operations, but it does not mean that his command ability is poor, after some deployment, it is clearly organized, and the entire army has all taken action, Wang Huanzhang is full of confidence, in his opinion, the left line army of the Russian army has become his bag, and he will definitely die

To be continued.
