Chapter 1605 Victory Hope

In the Central Asian theater, the day after the Soviet army occupied Tashkent, Kulik, commander of the Central Asian Theater of the Soviet Army, led his army south without hesitation, and by the 25th, except for one infantry division to guard Tashkent, the rest of the main forces all crossed the Syr Darya River and forced the Leninabad area where the Anjia army was assembled.

On the 26th, the electronic countermeasures brigade of the Anjia Army sneaked between Aares and Tashkent, completely interfering with the radio contact of the Soviet army. Ye Cheng gathered three tank corps, a directly subordinate guard corps and three reinforced motorized infantry divisions, and troops were deployed in Turkestan, and suddenly appeared outside the city of Ares, the hub of the Central Asian Railway and the Caspian Sea.

The Soviet army was caught off guard, rushed to the battle, and fought fiercely for a day and night, the whole army was annihilated, and Ares was successfully recovered.

Ye Chengcong did not stop, quickly moved south, and on the morning of the 28th, completely annihilated a division of Soviet troops stationed in Tashkent. Due to the interference of electronic signals, the Soviet army did not send a distress signal in case of attack from beginning to end.

On the afternoon of the 28th, Ye Chengcong left an infantry division to quietly build fortifications on the north bank of the Syr Darya, and the main force quickly advanced eastward, conquering the Talas Pass held by the Soviet army on the morning of 30 July, and then pounced on the city of Jamble. After Ye Cheng's main force occupied Jamble, the troops were very fast, and it only took one day for the forward troops to rush to Frunze and attack the two divisions of the Soviet army defending the city.

After two days and nights of fierce fighting, three divisions of Soviet troops were repulsed from Chucheng on the south bank of the Chu River, and on 1 August, the city of Frunze was liberated. On 2 August, under the attack of Ye Chengchuan and Xiao Wuqun from the north and south, the Soviet troops of the five divisions on the south bank of the Chu River announced their surrender after a little resistance.

After the war, it was found that the twelve divisions of the Soviet army stationed in Zhanbul, Frunze and Chucheng were so hungry that most of them could not even walk, let alone fight, because they had only eaten one meal for a long time.

Sulyukta Pass, west of Leninabad.

After being covered by heavy artillery fire, the Soviets launched another round of attacks on the mountain pass positions held by the Anjia army.

More than 5,000 Soviet soldiers rushed out of the trenches, like raging waves, and launched an attack on the mountain pass, which had fallen silent after the shelling.

There was silence in the front-line position of the Anjia Army, and several soldiers came out of the artillery hole, and after checking the mines laid, they quickly ran through the communication ditch to the position on the high ground in the rear.

In the rear of the position on the mountainside, more than 100 general-purpose machine guns of all kinds and Maxim machine guns were densely lined up in front of the formation, and the infantry simply acted as ammunition men, while as many as 200 mortars and rocket launchers were aimed at the front position.

On the artillery position, which was about 200 meters behind the battle line, the gunners held on tightly to the gun ropes, the grenades had been loaded into the chambers, and the ammunition men held grenades with fuses and lined up.

When rushing to 100 meters in front of the front-line position, the Soviet army's front line was ready to meet the rain of bullets, and then rushed forward 20 meters, and the Soviet commanders and political cadres in front of them were almost jumping to their throats, although they were not afraid of death, but it was good not to die, who wanted to rush forward more than 10 meters, and the trenches in front were still as silent as death.

"Could it be that all the Chinese were killed by our artillery?" The Soviet officers and soldiers in the charge thought ecstatically, the speed under their feet was faster.

Finally arriving at the front-line position at the foot of the mountain arranged by the Anjia Army, the Soviet troops jumped off the trenches one after another, and quickly stepped on more than 200 mines buried at the mouth of the communication ditch and the mouth of the anti-artillery hole.

As the sound of mines sounded, the general-purpose machine guns and Maxim machine guns on the positions of the An Jiajun took the lead in attacking. Hundreds of furious flames were like scythes wielded by death, fiercely cutting at the Soviet army in the charge, and wherever the flames went, blood arrows were spewed, and the Soviet officers and soldiers who were caught off guard fell one by one.

The co-shooter quickly connected the bullet chains, and in the continuous roar of the Maxim machine gun and the general-purpose machine gun, the yellow bullet casings "clanged" and fell to the ground, and soon piled up into a small hill.

Before the beaten Soviet soldiers could react, the gunners of the small-caliber artillery on the positions arranged by the An Jiajun pulled the gun ropes fiercely, "Knock knock-" Dozens of grenades screamed and pierced into the formation of the Soviet troops, and in the continuous explosions, blood, limbs, and weapons were all over the sky.

The Soviet troops behind were frightened and threw themselves into the wide trenches like dumplings, and soon there was nothing left at the front of the position except for the dense corpses.

At the main artillery position on the top of the mountain, sixteen 1910-type 107 howitzers captured from the Soviet army launched a rapid shelling at the same time, and sixteen groups of shells drew a beautiful arc in the sky and pounced on the Soviet artillery position that had already been locked.

"Boom-"

A huge explosion sounded on the Soviet artillery position at the same time, and the 762 Putilov field cannons in the center of the explosion, which had been loaded with shells and were waiting to be fired, flew straight out in an instant, flipped over several times in the air, and smashed heavily on the ground several meters away, and the gun body and gun barrel were separated.

In the orange fireball, the gunners who were holding the gun position rose into the air, and their lifeless bodies were cut into several pieces by sharp shrapnel before they hit the ground, and blood, limbs, and internal organs were splashed everywhere.

The Soviet artillery commander, who was lifted by the blast wave of the explosion, stood up stubbornly, ignoring the blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and shouted: "Shoot-"

In the shrapnel flying everywhere on the artillery position, the still alive gunners and the deputy gunners who made up for it had to pull the gun ropes! At this time, amid the scream of bullets flying at high speed, these gunners who puffed up their brave bodies almost simultaneously fell to the ground weakly, and streams of bloody arrows erupted from their open heads or chests.

This is the snipers of the An Jiajun who are in full swing!

As the body of the sniper rifle trembled slightly, bullets drilled into the skulls or chests of Soviet gunners with unmistakable accuracy.

The second and third groups of ammunition exploded on the Soviet artillery positions one after another, and one by one the artillery pieces and the Soviet officers and soldiers lying next to them turned into a pile of parts in the firelight. In the huge fireball, the stacked ammunition boxes were detonated, and the entire Soviet artillery position was flattened in the continuous explosions, and in the desperate screams, thousands of Soviet artillery soldiers on the artillery positions were shocked into the sky one after another, and were immediately turned into a rain of blood by countless shrapnel.

The Soviet officers and men of the two regiments deployed on both sides of the Soviet artillery positions were also shocked by the tyrannical shock wave, bleeding from their mouths and noses, and suffering unspeakably.

At the same time as the artillery was in full swing, the mortars and rocket launchers of the An Jiajun were fired at the same time, and the cloud-like shells swept through the air in large arcs, covering the trenches where the Soviet troops were hiding.

The remnants of more than 2,000 Soviet officers and soldiers in the trenches were trembling in the wide and high trenches, and just as they were secretly glad that they had such a safe trench to hide, they suddenly heard a group of screams getting closer and closer, and the Soviet officers and soldiers who were very familiar with this sound suddenly despaired.

At this point, even the Soviet officers and soldiers, who had an iron will, finally collapsed, and knowing what was going to happen, they frantically rushed to the trench wall. In the crowd, the officers and soldiers in front were still jumping hard, but they were violently pushed down by the officers and soldiers screaming behind. Before they could react, the Soviet soldiers who fell to the ground were covered by countless legs, and blood once again flowed all over the trenches amid a series of screams.

As a wave of overwhelming grenades accurately landed into the trenches, hundreds of orange fireballs rose into the air one after another, and the relatively enclosed space magnified the power of the explosion several times.

The Soviet officers and soldiers at the center of the explosion were thrown out of the trenches without even snorting, and their stumbling corpses smashed heavily on the position with a rain of blood. Tens of thousands of sharp shrapnel screamed and shot in all directions in the trenches, chasing the Soviet officers and soldiers who had nowhere to hide, and the endless screams of bloody arrows stained the entire trench crimson.

Between the piles of limbs, more than 100 Soviet officers and soldiers in the blood water covered the wounds gushing with blood, howling in pain, and the seemingly mighty offensive of the Soviet army was defused by the officers and soldiers of An Jia in the blink of an eye.

Begovat, command of the Central Asian theater of operations of the Soviet Army.

Kulik was furious at a group of generals: "What are you doing, a small mountain pass, which has been attacking continuously for nearly a week, and still has not taken it, but has lost its troops and lost its generals, is this the performance of the heroic and invincible Red Army?" ”

One by one, the commanders' faces were pale and silent, and many of them endured the "cooing" sound from their stomachs, lowered their heads, and were full of slander in their hearts: After entering Tashkent, not a single grain was found, and the troops fought continuously, and the commanders and fighters were hungry every day, and as the food was gradually consumed, it was difficult to guarantee even two meals. Many commanders fell ill with hunger, and soldiers fell ill, and in this case, it was extremely difficult to make a good record!

Seeing that everyone was silent, Kulik wanted to take the roll call, but at this time, Mehris, the political commissar of the front army, walked into the conference room, approached Kulik's side, and suggested that he adjourn the meeting for the time being, and that there was an important situation to report.

Kulik was worried that he couldn't find anyone to vent, and pointed at Mehris and said, "What are you doing sneaking around?" There is nothing to say to people, everyone is a revolutionary comrade, what is there to hide, say it, say it in front of all the commanders! ”

Mehris was anxious: "Comrade Marshal, this is the news sent by the comrades of the Southern Front Corps over the Lenin Mountains and the Turks Mountains, the stakes are very high, and announcing it in public may affect the morale of the army"

Kulik was slightly stunned: "Won't they send a telegram?" ”

Mehris said bitterly: "The problem is that the telegram has been sent, but there is no response. I made a special trip to the communications department just now, and they said that they had not received any news in the past week, and there was no response to the telegrams they had sent. Although I don't know what happened, I think it all could have something to do with our opponents."

The Soviet generals looked at each other with a look of surprise, Kulik thought about it, but still felt that he should maintain his prestige, and deliberately pretended not to care, and said: "No matter what, you can tell the news first." ”

Mehris had no choice but to report truthfully: "Haven't we been able to contact the garrisons of Tashkent and Ares these days?" Now the news has been confirmed, they were wiped out by the Chinese army! In addition, our troops remaining in the area around Frunze were also attacked by the superior forces of the Chinese army. Before the Southern Front Corps received an urgent report from Frunze and sent a correspondent to send us information, Jamble had already lost, and it was estimated that the current cities of Frunze and Chu had also fallen into the hands of the Chinese. If I'm not mistaken, the main force of the enemy is coming at us, and we must make up our minds quickly. ”

"What? How is this possible? Kulik exclaimed, and all the generals and colonels changed their faces drastically, and there was a "buzzing" discussion in the conference room.

Kulik grabbed Meheris's hand: "Is the news true?" ”

Mehris said: "The current correspondent is waiting in the war room, you can ask in person"
