When Chen Yongfu and Zheng Jing were attacked, Chen Kangjian and his troops had already arrived in Vladivostok. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Kangjian led the 1st Panzer Division to land from Dunai three days ago and outflank the attack from the land route in the direction of Vladivostok.

The entire landing process was not hindered in any way, and the Russian army had only a few preventive posts on the shores of Dunai, all of which were empty.

The 1st Panzer Division landed smoothly, and then attacked Vladivostok in a roundabout way along the Veliko Kamen-Romanovka-Artem.

From Dunai to Vladivostok, although the sea surface distance is close, it is much farther to detour by land, the distance is about 100 kilometers.

The road was rugged and difficult to navigate, so Chen Kangjian had to send an engineer regiment out to open up a passage for the tank and automobile units of the 1st Armored Division.

As a result, it took three days.

Fortunately, the 1st Panzer Division did not encounter any resistance along the way, otherwise it would have been pulled for a longer time.

The quality of the Renault FT-17 is still acceptable, along the way, after trekking through mountains and water for hundreds of kilometers, only a dozen tanks broke down, and most of the tanks successfully reached Vladivostok.

The Russians attached great importance to Vladivostok, and they built a group of strong fortresses in the land direction of Vladivostok, which stretched for more than ten miles, and the terrain was dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was the first fortress in the Far East.

Fortunately, Chen Kangjian was mentally prepared.

In the few months when the Northern Expeditionary Corps was about to set off, Lan Fang had collected enough information and had a preliminary understanding of the land defense settings in Vladivostok, and Chen Kangjian was confident enough to capture Vladivostok.

Although there was no sniper from the Russian army along the way, it does not mean that Vladivostok did not, the 1st Armored Division has a large number of tanks, and if on the plain, the Russian army has almost no advantage, then because Vladivostok has a strong enough defensive position, there will definitely be Russian soldiers here to defend.

Kolchak did give the order to withdraw the defenders, but not all Russian troops would follow Kolchak's orders, and there would definitely be people who fought to the death for the glory of the Russian soldiers.

When the troops arrived only 3 kilometers from Vladivostok, Chen Kangjian ordered the troops to spread out and attack Vladivostok in battle formation.

In fact, after more than two years of training in the European theater, the First Armored Division can be said to be the most skilled infantry unit in the world at present.

Vladivostok is surrounded by the sea on three sides, the city is located on the Muravviev Amur Peninsula, the narrowest part of the land area is about 10 kilometers, because the peninsula is mountainous, many places armored forces can not deploy, the available attack front is about 3 kilometers wide.

In order to maximize the efficiency of the attack, Chen Kangjian took out a regiment in the first attack, a total of 12 companies, 120 tanks, and 2,600 infantry to attack.

Almost every tank was accompanied by more than twenty soldiers.

Tanks and infantry complement each other, with the infantry clearing obstacles for the tanks and the tanks providing cover for the infantry and taking care of the storms.

Nearly every squad is equipped with Demomen, Attackers, Heavys, Medics, and Flamethrowers.

The demolition man is mainly responsible for clearing obstacles, and the most important task is to destroy the anti-tank trenches in front of the Vladivostok bunker complex, which are up to 12 meters wide and up to 5 meters deep, and the demolition man is also responsible for blasting when his colleagues encounter the strong fortresses of the defenders.

The attackers are the main attacking troops, armed with melee weapons such as shotguns, grenades, and pistols, and are responsible for clearing the defenders' forts with flamethrower-carrying soldiers, opening the way for the follow-up troops.

The Heavy had to do two things, suppressing the defenders' firepower and setting up defensive positions on the spot after conquering the fort in case the Russians might counterattack.

Step-by-step and cautious are what Chen Kangjian particularly emphasized before launching the attack.

Therefore, under the guidance of this idea, the speed of the troops' advance was not fast, and the detachments maintained a certain degree of coordination and advanced together.

It's really propulsive, and when hundreds of tanks are spitting black smoke and "zazaza" forward, it looks really deterrent.

Before the first anti-tank trenches, the attacking troops ran into trouble.

Russia has been operating Vladivostok for many years, and the defense line here is all permanent fortifications, even the anti-tank trenches.

The anti-tank trenches dug by the Russians, the bottom of the trenches, including both sides, were all cement mixed with steel bars, and the blasters had no explosives, but there was no place for them, even if two explosives were packed together, they could only blow up a small gap at most, and they could not achieve the intended effect at all.

Fortunately, the 1st Armored Division still has boat-bridge vehicles, and boat-bridge vehicles will immediately drive up and lay temporary bridges on the spot for tank troops to pass.

The Russians obviously did not expect that the 1st Armored Division was actually equipped with such an artifact as a "boat bridge car", and immediately after the first temporary bridge was laid, the Russians began to snipe.

Knock knock knock......

Almost instantly, the bunker group that was still dead and silent just now was like a lit firework, and countless tongues of fire erupted from the front and rear of the entire bunker group, and hundreds of heavy machine guns were fired at the same time, which was a bit too sparse to describe as a metal storm, and countless warheads were like a metal wall, smashing towards the tank units of the 1st Armored Division.

Ding-ding-bell......

The warhead "clanged" on the body of the tank, from time to time there were sparks, there were vibrators everywhere, everywhere there was dust and gravel stirred up by the warhead, the attacking troops were suppressed to the death, let alone advancing, it was difficult to look up and observe.

"Forward, keep going......"

"Rush over, rush over the pontoon ......"

"Infantry pay attention to concealment, follow the ......"

The front-line commander knew that it was not a way to be beaten passively, and that he had to rush across the pontoon bridge to disperse the defenders' fire in order to find an opportunity to break through, so almost for a while, all the voices of "advance" were heard on the front-line positions.

Then move on!

The tank spewed out a large puff of smoke, like a faltering old cow, rushing forward with bullets that frantically smashed on the hull.

The infantry followed closely, and if they were exposed to machine-gun fire at this time, they would be lucky to be beaten into a hornet's nest.

When a dozen tanks rushed across the pontoon bridge, the tank units dispersed in a roundabout, and the defenders' firepower finally weakened.

It was not that the defenders were killed, but that the defenders voluntarily abandoned this bunker group, and when faced with the "invulnerable" tank troops, the defenders, lacking countermeasures, did not have much ability to resist.

The Russians had been fighting with the Germans on the Western Front, and when Russia and Germany signed the Peace of Brest, the Germans had not yet had time to equip their A7Vs, so tanks were alien to the Russian defenders.

The Russian defenders lacked knowledge of tanks, and they did not have much of a countermeasure.

So retreat seemed like a better option.

Because in less than ten minutes just now, the accompanying infantry of the tank unit of the 1st Armored Division had already lost more than 100 combat personnel.

And this bunker group is only one of the more than ten bunker groups of the defenders.

The tank units that rushed through the anti-tank trenches were unleashed wild horses, and the tankmen showed almost brutality, driving the tanks on a rampage, whether barbed wire or repulsion......

That's right, it's crushing, it's the kind of crushing that destroys and sweeps everything.

Just before the Northern Expeditionary Corps boarded the ship, Lan Fang educated all the soldiers on nationalism, the Jiangdong 64tun tragedy, the Hailan Pao massacre, and the Great Purge again and again......

When hatred rises to the national level, it is irrational.

When the Russians attacked Siberia, they slaughtered all the way forward, killing all the indigenous people of Siberia, leaving only Russians in this land, so Siberia became an inseparable part of Russia.

And now, Lan Fang has also carried out similar education for the Northern Expeditionary Corps, which is the so-called tooth for tooth and eye for eye......

Soon, tank units attacked in front of the pillboxes.

This is the highlight of the attackers and flamethrower-wielding infantry.

The Northern Expeditionary Corps conducted a similar drill before setting off, in order to attack the pillboxes defended by the Russians.

In front of each bunker, the Pyro first attacked the shooting hole of the pillbox with a flamethrower, and then the attacker went up and stuffed two or three grenades into the shooting hole, so that even if the pillbox was cleared, the infantry would not enter the pillbox at all, and there would be no white-knuckle combat, hand-to-hand combat or anything at all.

The infantry skillfully cooperated, and quickly cleared most of the first-line bunkers, and then attacked the main fort in the middle of this bunker group.

It is a huge fortress in the style of a European castle, with prismatic walls, cross-firing holes, and almost no dead spots for fire.

At this time, it was the time for the tanks to exert their strength, and more than a dozen tanks were not in a hurry to attack, but lined up almost 300 meters away from the main fort, using all kinds of shells to bombard the main fort indiscriminately.

That's right, it's indiscriminate bombing.

The ground troops invested by the Northern Expeditionary Corps are the 1st Armored Division, but at the same time, the 3rd Infantry Division and the 4th Infantry Division are responsible for transporting supplies for the 1st Armored Division, so there is no need to worry about whether there are enough shells to fight until the tank guns melt.

No matter how strong the fortress is, it can't hold the indiscriminate bombardment, especially when the tanks have gradually increased to more than 50, and soon, the main fort was blasted open a gap, the small half of the main fort collapsed, and the fragile "heart" part was finally exposed.

For indoor warfare, the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Corps were even more adept, and their first battle when they arrived in Europe was indoor warfare.

This time, it's an Attacker plus Heavy.

The Heavy operated all Lewis machine guns, which were lighter than the Maxim, and the 97-round drum also ensured sufficient firepower, especially after the soldiers' modifications, these machine guns were further reduced in length and more suitable for indoor use.

Every time a room is entered, a grenade is invariably cleared, and then the Heavy bursts in, strafing every moving object.

Lewis accuracy with the handle removed is greatly reduced, but in a room where the distance is only a dozen or even a few meters, accuracy becomes less important, density is the most important.

And so the infantry burst in, and the explosion of grenades, the sound of machine-gun fire, and the sound of angry shouts in various languages, mixed with wails and begs for mercy, were chilling.

But eventually, all the voices will fall silent.

Just when everyone thought the battle was over.

Rumble......

The main fort exploded with the most violent explosion since the war began.

The two squads that were ready to take over the attack outside the main fort were all killed, almost all the soldiers within 100 meters were killed, the soldiers within 300 meters were seriously hearing impaired, and the soldiers within 500 meters were dizzy and nauseous to varying degrees, and they all needed to rest for a period of time before they could continue to fight.

When the smoke cleared and the dust settled, the main fort was gone, replaced by a large pit with a diameter of more than ten meters.

In just the last explosion, Chen Kangjian's soldiers suffered more than 400 casualties, including the three squads that rushed into the main fort and fought were all killed, and even the bodies could not be found.

When the news reached Chen Kangjian, Chen Kangjian's face was gloomy, and he gave the most cruel order since the establishment of the Foreign Legion: "Contact the bomber unit and the artillery unit, I will raze Vladivostok to the ground, and there will be no grass from now on!" ”
