Chapter 525: Recovering Cullen
With this information sent back by Zhou Gong from Germany, Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili were overjoyed, and they also seriously thought about the key points. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Germans excused themselves by saying that they would agree to an alliance with China as long as Zhang Xinghan could provide more comprehensive drawings of tanks, combat vehicles, and other weapons and equipment.
Everyone knows that preparing drawings is not something that can be completed in a day or two.
Therefore, the intention behind the Germans is likely to be to see whether the national army led by Zhang Xinghan is capable of winning this border war between China and the Soviet Union.
And in what way will this battle end.
 \pig\pig\island\novel(zhu)(zhu)(dao); Therefore, it is more important to recover Cullen as soon as possible and avoid the outbreak of all-out war than to provide follow-up comprehensive drawings.
After thinking of this, Zhang Xinghan sent another urgent telegram to Zhang Lingfu overnight.
…………
In Zhang Lingfu's headquarters, Zhang Lingfu took the table in front of him in his hand, shook it to the senior officers who had just been woken up and rushed to the meeting, and said: "In order to achieve our strategic goal of forming an alliance with the Germans, the chairman of the committee called again urging us to end the battle within two days, completely annihilate the Kulen defenders, and recover the entire territory of Outer Mongolia. ”
"In addition, 300,000 reinforcements from Xinjiang are already on the way, and at most more than 20,000 people from its vanguard will arrive tomorrow.
Although the arrival of these reinforcements will not be of much benefit to the settlement of the battle of Kulen within two days, it will play a great role in making up for the lack of our troops and recovering the entire territory of Outer Mongolia after the end of the Battle of Kulen. ”
"Commander-in-chief, since the military situation is so urgent, you can give an order, and we will fight to the death and swear to climb to the head of Kulun City to complete the entrustment!" A major general and division commander took the lead in making a statement.
Others also followed suit with indignation.
Zhang Lingfu waved his hand without much fluctuation in his emotions and said, "Everyone, it's almost dawning now. There is no rush to attack, and as the saying goes, sharpening knives is not wrong for woodcutters, so don't sleep any longer, go back and assemble your troops, and make adequate preparations.
I'll contact the Air Force, and after dawn, I'll attack on all fronts and storm Cullen! ”
…………
It is said that after experiencing great sorrow and joy, Agoura returned to the city, and it was almost dawn.
He didn't have a residency. Instead, he took advantage of the fact that the night had not yet dispersed and went home.
When he got home, he saw Lao Tzu Agulu comforting the woman who had been forced to seduce the Soviet soldiers.
This good-looking woman naturally didn't agree to do that kind of unspeakable and embarrassing thing at first, but when Agoura threatened her family, she had no choice but to compromise.
Seeing Agoura coming back, Agulu patted the woman's back, stood up, glanced at Agoura, and the father and son walked out one after the other.
Come to the yard. Agulu hurriedly asked, "Son, how is it, did you succeed?" ”
Agula couldn't hide his excitement between his eyebrows, and nodded hurriedly: "Daddy." It's done, I've already contacted the national army outside the city, and as soon as they break through the Soviets' positions outside the city, I'll lead people to raid the city gate. Cooperate with them to enter the city.
After the matter is completed, the national government will appoint you as the mayor of Kulen City, and my son and I will also be a major general. ”
Hear Agora say that. Agulu, the old prostitute, couldn't help but have his eyes shining, and he was overwhelmed with excitement and said: "Great, if you can really become the mayor of this Kulun City, then you can be regarded as getting ahead and glorifying your ancestors!" ”
Saying that, Agulu said solemnly to Agula again: "Son, you must be careful this time and go all out, whether our family can get ahead or not depends on you!" ”
Agoura nodded seriously and said, "Daddy, don't worry, I understand, it's not too early, I'll go back first." ”
Agulu nodded and instructed, "Okay, be careful on your way." ”
"I see." Agoura turned away nonchalantly.
………………
Early the next morning.
Three hundred Stuka dive bombers and one hundred Zero fighters were all dispatched, and a mixed group of 400 fighters covered the sky like locusts in the sky, and flew over the city of Kulen in a black pressure.
A new day of fierce bombing began, and from the dispatch of such a number of fighters at one time, it is not difficult to see Zhang Lingfu's determination this time.
In addition to the air force almost pouring out, outside the city, especially on the other side of the Tula River in the east of the city, Zhang Lingfu gathered all the artillery that could be assembled in his 70,000 army.
The preset artillery positions on the east bank were lined up, echoing the fierce bombardment of the air force, and a rain of steel bullets began to pour over Lao Maozi's head.
Rows of artillery shells and aerial bombs that fell densely in the air fell on the Soviet positions, and suddenly there were a series of earth-shattering explosions.
Huge mushroom clouds rose into the sky with the light of fire.
The most heavily bombarded and shelled were the Soviet defensive positions along the river in the east of the city.
On the position outside the city two miles square, there were explosions everywhere, fire, and thick smoke shrouded the entire position.
The thousands of Soviet soldiers who stuck here were killed and wounded.
While their artillery and air force were still venting to their heart's content, on the east bank of the Tula River, about 20 No. 4 bridge-building tanks had quietly driven to the shore and began to erect steel bridges in a tense and orderly manner.
Both the Soviet troops in the positions outside the city and those on the top of the city had been blown up by the dense and powerful aerial fire and shells, and they couldn't wait to dig three feet into the ground to dodge.
Where else can you care about organizing the bridge-building tank operation of the Chinese army.
About half an hour later, the last piece of steel bridge structure was laid with a No. 4 tank.
A steel bridge spanning the east and west banks of the Tula River was quietly completed.
Hundreds of No. 4 tank groups and thousands of Nationalist infantry immediately poured to the bridgehead on the east bank, waiting for their air force and artillery to end the bombardment before launching a storm.
Three hundred Stuka and more than 500 guns of various calibers bombarded and shelled for an hour.
The entire city of Cullen was completely enveloped in smoke, and the raging fire could be seen everywhere in the smoke.
The buildings in the city and the fortifications of the Soviet army were all destroyed into ruins.
Whether it was the Mongolian civilians in the city, the puppet army and the Soviet army, they were all killed and wounded, and they were miserable.
As soon as the artillery fire began to extend, as a colonel of the national army who personally led the team shouted, the tanks and infantry of the national army who had been waiting for a long time immediately flocked to the bridge on the east bank bridgehead.
Quickly arrived at the West Bank, quickly unfolded, with tanks as the lead, infantry and tans coordinated to launch a surprise attack on the depth of the Soviet position.
The smoke on the Soviet position did not disperse, and except for a few surviving Soviet troops who barely fired a few shots, the Nationalist army advanced very smoothly.
