The wolf domain has long been riddled with holes, and the broken defense line of the five lines of defense has also been included in the sphere of influence of Tsarist Russia, and now the battle has extended to the depths of the Buren Mountains. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
From the wolf domain to the life base of Yunxia Valley, the straight-line distance along the way is about ten kilometers, of course, the actual record is naturally several times the straight-line distance, although the mountain roads along the way have been transformed several times, and you can ride horses all the way, but in this area, the Black Dragon Army has established three lines of defense according to the terrain.
The first line of defense, about four or five kilometers away from the wolf domain into the depths of Bulun Mountain, there is a mountain road about 300 meters long, which is sandwiched between two steep stone mountains, so it was named the Shuangshan defense line by Yue Weihua.
The second line of defense, in the Shuangshan defense line continues to go deep into about ten kilometers of mountain road, the mountain road is detoured at the foot of the nameless mountain, and the other side of the mountain road is the Grand Canyon, this road is very long and more than 1,000 meters, in spring and summer, the mountain is dense with forests, bushes, in winter it is ice and snow, it is difficult to climb, it is absolutely impossible to climb over the mountain, and the only passage is only at the foot of the mountain, the mountain road on the side of the canyon.
The third line of defense, at the foot of the back of Yunxia Mountain, where the life base of Yunxia Valley is located, is only about ten meters wide, it is a rare ice-free river, and the fortifications on the other side of the river are built on the halfway of Yunxia Mountain on the opposite bank.
Since October 6th, 30,000 Qing troops, under the leadership of Zeng Qi, once again joined forces with Tsarist Russia and began to attack the Shuangshan defense line.
The Shuangshan defense line, on the bright side of the Black Dragon Army, invested in guarding the pass, there are only two incomplete regiments, with a strength of about 2,400, plus 30 field artillery, and only half of the scale of the artillery regiment, and the total strength is just over 3,000.
In terms of the coalition army, before the war, the total strength of Tsarist Russia was about 36,000, the Qing army was 30,000, and the total number of the two armies was 66,000, the figure was very auspicious, however, after three consecutive days and three nights of fighting, more than half of the 60,000 troops were directly lost, leaving less than 30,000 troops.
Of course, in addition to the weakness of the Qing army, there is also a main reason for being able to destroy the 36,000 troops of the coalition army in three days, that is, the Black Dragon Army, which has not taken the initiative to attack for a long time, launched a night attack on the coalition army for two consecutive nights, and these two night attacks directly caused nearly 20,000 casualties on the coalition side.
It stands to reason that the attack of the coalition army is continuous day and night, and it is naturally impossible for the Black Dragon Army to mobilize more than 3,000 unexpected troops, but after all, the Black Dragon Army has more than 6,000 troops, and he only needs to be on the battlefield at the same time and show more than 3,000 troops to not make the coalition army suspicious.
In addition, the battlefield of the Shuangshan defense line is not large, and a one-time investment of 1,500 troops is enough to withstand the opponent's attack, in fact, it was originally two groups of people who took turns to defend the pass, so even if they launched a night attack, the coalition army could not have the slightest suspicion, and afterwards, they could only sigh at the strong will to fight of the Black Dragon Army.
At this moment, it was already the early morning of October 10, and the coalition forces were already storming the second line of defense, that is, the Grand Canyon defense line, in the words of Kuzuosco, they must be in one go, even if they are all killed, they must also wipe out the remnants of the Black Dragon Army.
After three days of fighting and destroying 36,000 coalition troops, it is naturally impossible for the Black Dragon Army to have no battle losses, at least the battle losses shown are also more than forty percent, that is, the total strength of the Black Dragon Army now exposed, plus artillery, that is, 17800.
Of course, in fact, the Black Dragon Army only lost four or five hundred people in the past three days, which is less than half of the battle losses in the eyes of the coalition army, and the entire Black Dragon Army is in four shifts in turn, and the soldiers are relatively easy.
On the big mountain next to the defense line of the Grand Canyon, the snow is white, the thick snow is knee-deep, the weather is more than ten degrees below zero, the snow is no longer melting, it will only get thicker day by day, and the cold air is like a knife raging everything around.
The Temporary General Headquarters of the Black Dragon Army is placed on a slightly flat platform halfway up the mountain, of course, on the platform, a train carriage that appeared out of thin air has become the temporary headquarters of the Black Dragon Army, and the temporary headquarters also seems empty, with only seven or eight participants.
So far in the battle, the logistics personnel of the Black Dragon Army, including Yue Xiang, chief of the general staff, and Yang Fengxiang, the chief adviser, and other slightly older high-level personnel, have all been transferred, and the wounded in the battle will also be arranged to leave that night.
Even those ordinary people who were hiding from the scourge of war in Mount Brun have all been safely evacuated, so now, only the 101st to 105th regiments, the cavalry regiment, and the 1st field artillery regiment are still holding on to Mount Brun.
Therefore, these regiments, basically the strength of each regiment, are only 700 to 900, even the 1st Field Artillery Regiment is no exception, because the artillery of Tsarist Russia has increased recently, while the artillery of the Black Dragon Army has been decreasing, resulting in several artillery battles against the artillery of the Black Dragon Army, perhaps because of the good luck of Tsarist Russia, that battle caused more than half of the artillery of the 1st Regiment of the Field Artillery to be destroyed, and hundreds of soldiers were sacrificed.
"The snow is getting heavier, and the snow is exceptionally heavy today, so I've decided not to delay it anymore and set to break through tonight."
Although it was early in the morning, the battle at the foot of the mountain had begun, and all the heads of the regiments were present, Yue Weihua didn't want to do anything in democracy, this game, until now, the Tsarist Qing court coalition army has buried more than 100,000 people in the wolf domain, I'm afraid even Yue Weihua himself doesn't know, quietly, the merit points accumulated in the merit tower have reached as much as 1.58 million, and the available merit points are more than 630,000.
Of course, the Tsarist Qing court coalition army paid more than 100,000 troops, and there were many casualties on the side of the Black Dragon Army, and in this battle, the number of soldiers sacrificed reached more than 3,000, and the light and serious wounded were also thousands, of course, if it weren't for Yue Weihua's penicillin appearing in time, the soldiers sacrificed by the Black Dragon Army would have at least doubled, and it might be more.
You must know that the strength of the Black Dragon Army's Wolf Domain Headquarters is only about 20,000 when the main combat forces such as the 101st to 105th regiments, the cavalry regiment, the engineer regiment, the three artillery regiments, the marines and the naval division fleet are full, and the number of sacrifices plus the wounded may account for half.
Although more than 100,000 people of the coalition army were killed and wounded, this record is enough to defy the sky, but when you find that one-sixth of your comrades-in-arms around you have died and one-third have been injured, you will also bring sadness and nostalgia while you are happy and proud.
This battle began on September 19th, and has been fighting for 20 days now, fighting in such a big place, with an average of nearly 10,000 casualties every day, which shows the fierceness and cruelty of the battle, continuous combat, even if it is three shifts and four shifts every day, but as long as you go to the battlefield, you have to face life and death, and the mental tension can be seen, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Yue Weihua is a little tired, tired, and wants to end this battle as soon as possible.
"Commander-in-chief, it may be a few days before the heavy snow closes the mountain, and now it has only reached the second level, and there is still the third level, so it's too cheap to leave." Yue Xiaodong, the commander of the cavalry regiment, smiled.
"Commander Xiaodong is right, Lao Maozi has more than 10,000 people left, let's stick to the second pass for a few days, and then fight for a few more days in the third pass, Lao Maozi and the remaining 20,000 or 30,000 people of the Qing army, there is nothing left, isn't this also the plan made by the commander-in-chief?" Zhou Dabiao, the head of the 105th regiment, also agreed.
"Hehe, commander-in-chief, I want to stop fighting for a few days." Chen Qian, the head of the 110th regiment, also echoed.
"I don't care, but the damn weather is really getting colder, and it's going under the knife every day." Nie Youcai, the head of the 102nd regiment, said with a smile.
"I see, it's better to leave early." Kang Quan, head of the 103rd regiment, said.
"I listen to the commander-in-chief, and whatever the commander-in-chief says, I will fight." Song Yaoming, head of the 104th regiment, said.
"I don't care." Yue Qingjie, commander of the 1st Field Artillery Regiment, said.
It really doesn't matter, with Yue Weihua here, it is equivalent to having logistical support, food and materials, guns and ammunition are not lacking, if you really want to fight, you can fight, if you don't want to fight, you can leave, if it is really a heavy snowfall, they will find a place in Bulun Mountain, cat winter, it's not impossible, anyway, Yue Weihua can take out the river boat gunboat train wagon, and the carbon fire is also open, and they can't freeze anywhere.
"You guys, why do you have to kill them quickly?"
Yue Weihua pointed to Yue Xiaodong and the other regiment commanders who shouted that they would continue to fight, and then continued: "When I made a plan and wanted to 'die together' with Lao Maozi, I was mainly worried about logistics and the people, as well as our post-war transfer, but who knew that we found another way in the battle, and transferred them all halfway, so naturally we didn't have to fight to the end." ”
"And we people, we can also leave unnoticed, maybe in the eyes of the coalition forces, we are all remnants of the defeated army with missing arms and legs, it is understandable that we suddenly evacuate, when the time comes, all they can do is to search all over the Burun Mountain."
Yue Weihua also understands that in the perfect plan, it is impossible that there are no loopholes, even if it is really "all the same", Tsarist Russia will not believe that the Black Dragon Army will really be completely destroyed, after all, there is still the existence of the Xigang Army Division, so it can only be true and false, false and true, let them look for it all over the world, it doesn't matter.
"And my decision to leave early was mainly based on several considerations."
"First, the weather, you look at the snow outside, it's too scary, after a night, the snow on the ground will be half a foot thick, and wait for a few days, I'm afraid that the snow in some places, such as mountain passes, passes and other places may be very thick, when the time comes, it may really be difficult to get out, I don't care, you can go at any time if you want to, but it's difficult for you, do you really want to cat here for a winter?"
"Hehe, luck won't be so bad."
"It's hard to say."
"Well, let's move on to the second point, in this operation, we have caused enough casualties to Tsarist Russia, so far, the Tsarist Russian troops killed and injured in this battle are at least more than 120,000, as far as I know, the total strength of Tsarist Russia's invasion of the three eastern provinces is more than 130,000 points, so it is not interesting to have 8,000 in 10,000, besides, there are still more than 5,000 Tsarist Russians in the prisoner camp, we can't kill them all."
"Hehe, commander-in-chief, speaking of prisoners, can I discuss with you, our 2nd Field Artillery Regiment suffered a lot of losses in this operation, and there are still many artillery soldiers among the prisoners of the Qing army, can you give us something to add?" Yue Qingjie interjected.
"Commander-in-chief, you can't favor one over the other, there are a lot of cavalrymen among the prisoners, and our cavalry regiment must also replenish some manpower,......。"
"Alright, it's not negotiable."
Yue Weihua directly interrupted Yue Xiaodong's words, the people in the captive camp, if they had been recruited before, they would have been recruited, but now they are absolutely not able to ask for it anymore, once they do, it is too obvious to be fake, in order to replenish such a few troops, it is really not a cost-effective thing to expose too much.
"Well, you're the boss, you have the final say." Yue Xiaodong said helplessly.
In fact, Yue Xiaodong really wants to quote a sentence that Yue Weihua often says, that is, if you want to do one thing, you don't need any reason, and if you want to shirk one thing, then you can find a thousand reasons at will, of course, this sentence was used by Yue Weihua when he taught them, and Yue Xiaodong could only think about it.
"Then let's talk about the reason for the early evacuation,......。
……
Prisoner concentration camps.
The prisoner concentration camp of the Black Dragon Army is located in several valleys not far from the rear of the Grand Canyon defense line.
The existence of more than 10,000 captives in the four prisoner camps is also one of the reasons why Yue Weihua wants to evacuate as soon as possible, because once the defense line of the Grand Canyon is breached, then these captives will be rescued and killed, and it is not easy to kill, and when the time comes, these more than 10,000 people will probably become the strength of the coalition army again, as for the transfer, it will be even more unrealistic.
As the coalition army began to attack the Shuangshan defense line, these prisoner camps began to become silent, especially the two prisoner camps that held Tsarist Russia, which were even more quiet and terrible, every time the meal arrived, these Tsarist Russian prisoners were honestly lined up, and there was no loud noise, in fact, this is not difficult to understand, because they were afraid, and the killing of prisoners in front of the second level made them even more frightened, so they became very honest and well-behaved, and did not give the Black Dragon Army the slightest chance to go crazy.
Today, however, the two Russian prisoner camps finally began to become quiet, because the sound of gunfire was already ringing hundreds of meters away, and freedom was so close to them that they could not restrain their inner excitement.
"Haha, did you find it, there are at least half fewer guards outside, it seems that the Black Dragon Army is really not good."
"Brothers, we're not far from freedom."
"Damn the Black Dragon Army, is it finally going to be defeated?"
……
Bang dang.
"Now I stand up when I read my name."
"Grodekov, Papanovich 、......。"
Just when the Tsarist Russians in the prisoner camp were preparing to carnival one by one, the gate of the prisoner camp opened, and a group of heavily armed Black Dragon Army soldiers rushed in, took out a piece of paper for the leader, and began to read the list, which was a list of deaths.
In fact, Yue Weihua was originally preparing to secretly execute these Tsarist generals, but later Yue Weihua changed his doctrine, killing prisoners may not be a good thing to pay attention to, but killing a few war criminals, even if it is said that the sky is broken, Yue Weihua is not afraid, and killing in front of the captives can also play a good deterrent effect, and killing prisoners at this time can also make Tsarist Russia think that this is the last madness of the Black Dragon Army.
"Oh no, God."
"No, you can't do that."
"We are prisoners, we are no longer generals of Tsarist Russia, and we demand that prisoners be treated as they should."
"No, don't."
……
As the names were read one by one, some of those Tsarist generals walked out with great dignity and died generously, of course, most of them had weak legs, and even collapsed to the ground, kneeling and begging for mercy.
"After the trial of our Black Dragon Army Divisional Court, I now announce that the results of the handling of Grodekov and other war criminals will be shot and executed immediately."
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Just outside the gate of the prisoner camp, more than two dozen Russian generals were executed just before many Russian prisoners.
"I remember it all, this is the end of aggression against others."
