The airborne troops of the 15th Division parachuted directly two or three kilometers behind the Russian troops, and the personnel and vehicles were parachuted separately.

The paratrooper airborne combat vehicle equipped by the 15th Division was developed based on the BMW series combat vehicle of the Soviet Union in another plane, which is mobile and flexible, equipped with a 30 mm cannon, and is very effective in cooperating with paratroopers.

The Russian army was already shocked when it saw the umbrella flowers falling from the sky, and European countries are not unaware that transport aircraft can be used for airborne operations, and some countries have also experimented, but to support an airborne operation, many conditions need to be met. First of all, it is necessary to ensure air supremacy, and this is something that cannot be guaranteed by European countries, so they are not very enthusiastic about developing airborne operations. The Russian army has only understood the relevant concepts, but has not implemented them concretely. There was not even anti-airborne training, because there was no benchmark for reference, and Datang had never staged a good show of airborne operations before.

The defense line set up by the Russian army on the coast is mainly aimed at the cooperation of the plane army and navy, and has not yet been involved in three-dimensional operations. In fact, the air defense forces set up by the Russian army on the coastal defense line were not very sufficient, and the Tang army destroyed almost all of them with a wave of air strikes.

The Russian army also did not deploy much armored forces here, because it was obvious that the air strikes would cost them a lot of valuable tanks and armored vehicles, so the number was extremely limited. When the Tang Dynasty's paratrooper fighting vehicles and rapid reaction forces began to attack the Russian army from the back, the Russian army did not even have time to turn their guns to deal with the Tang army, because they had never prepared for this kind of situation of being attacked on the back of the enemy.

A large number of Don soldiers rushed to the fortifications and tunnels of the Russian army with assault rifles, and the paratrooper fighting vehicles effectively provided continuous and powerful fire pressure. The rifle of the soldiers of the 15th Division was not a long assault rifle, but actually a short assault rifle, that is, a carbine. At this time, Datang had abandoned the earlier S11 (AK-47) as a standard weapon, and instead was equipped with a large number of small-caliber assault rifles. This new rifle model is S16, and the design level is still relatively high, referring to some designs of Kalashnikov and M16 to make a self-designed rifle. It is important to know that light weapons are basically imperfect, and there must be trade-offs and weights. The S16 automatic rifle still inherits the durability of the S11 rifle and can adapt to multiple environments. Its human-machine function is relatively good, and it is also able to add various tactical components. The disadvantage is that this rifle is designed to avoid problems such as overheating at the front of the magazine, using engineering plastics and widened handguards, and the process also requires more, so its cost has increased to more than twice that of the original S11; In addition, because the stock is not designed to fold, although the stability of the gun is ensured, it also causes the rifle to be too long and not particularly convenient to carry. Therefore, when the fast reaction force carries out airborne missions, it carries a shorter and shorter range carbine version.

The mainstream weapon equipped by the soldiers of the Russian army at this time is the imitation Datang S1 bolt-action rifle. This weapon has become a classic, and after Germany and other countries authorized its manufacture, other countries also competed to imitate it, becoming one of the standard weapons of the European Union army. It has good stability, high shooting accuracy and great power, and it is equipped with a large number of troops when the industrial capacity of Russia and other industries cannot meet the needs of semi-automatic or fully automatic equipment.

The S1 rifle is good, but its firepower is much worse than that of the fully automatic S16. Coupled with the fact that the soldiers of the Datang Fast Reaction Force also have the cover of dozens of paratrooper combat vehicles, even if they rely on fortifications, it is difficult for the Russian army to suppress the Tang soldiers, but they are killed in front of them and then eliminated.

The troops of the 15th Division also had enough air cover, and the Russian troops in the fortifications were bombed so that they could not lift their heads, and the Don soldiers charged up to them, and then fired rockets at their fortifications, or threw grenades, killing the Russian soldiers inside.

Under such circumstances, the Russian army was unable to defend effectively at all, and was soon seized by the 15th Division as a defensive line behind it. At the time of the chaos of the Russian army, the landing force of the Tang Army also launched a beach-rushing landing under the cover, a total of 8 amphibious hovercraft and dozens of amphibious personnel carriers tread the water, and 10 helicopters taking off from the amphibious assault ship also carried hundreds of Tang soldiers to land vertically. The Russian army could not organize effective counterattack fire, and the obstacles were almost cleared, and hundreds of Don troops successfully occupied the beachhead, and cooperated with the 15th Division rapid reaction force to begin to attack the Russian troops defending around them.

A large number of Russian troops were at a loss under the onslaught and finally chose to surrender to the Tang army, which finally seized the beachhead at a relatively small price and ensured the safety of the landing site.

After the successful landing, the Tang army took advantage of the situation to capture the estuary city of Kherson, and the Russian army did have an armored regiment into the battle, but the M1 tank of this armored regiment had not yet touched the ground forces of the Tang army, and was hit by a wave of naval aviation carrier-based attack aircraft, and a large part of it was blown up. The Russian army's battlefield air defense means are relatively weak, and there are not a few self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, more towed anti-aircraft guns, and the number of equipment is not much.

In several days of fighting, only four Datang fighters were accidentally hit by ground artillery fire and crashed, and only one pilot was killed, and the rest returned to the troops.

The Russian army only carried out a relatively limited defense in Kherson, and then several Datang cruisers sailed into the Dnieper River and began to shell Kherson, and the Datang Army also established artillery positions outside the city, and more than 200 artillery pieces took turns to bombard the Russian troops in the city. It was not a big city in the first place, and the Russian army could not withstand such an attack, so it naturally surrendered.

A small number of Russian troops stubbornly engaged in street battles with the Tang army in Kherson, but the Tang army was very domineering and once they found a building occupied by the enemy, they directly called in a strong attack plane or helicopter to knock down the building, and the sporadic resistance of the Russian army did not play a role. The Tang army was not afraid to destroy the city at all, which also made it even more impossible for the Russian army to resist the Tang army in the case of a huge disparity in firepower.

In the final analysis, it is the Russian army that is not ready to fight the Don Army, and in fact the entire European Union is the same. It's one thing to deter the Don army, it's another thing to really go to war with the Don army. If the Russian army deploys more than 100,000 troops, thousands of artillery pieces and anti-aircraft guns along the coastline, and has enough aviation to support it, it may be even more difficult for Datang to achieve victory. It's just that the Russian army does not have such capabilities, so it is deflated everywhere on the battlefield.

The Don army took Kherson and continued north along the Dnieper River, and the Russian army hurriedly organized its forces in an attempt to prevent the Don army from reaching Kiev and protect Ukraine's ownership. (To be continued.) )
