Chapter 298: The Soviet Red Army of Kyakhta was fully armed

He An took the new anti-reflective telescope handed over by Zhang Dafu, and lay on the fluffy snow in a standard combat lurking posture, carefully looking at Kyakhtu in the distance.

As the armored forces advanced all the way, even if it was known that the Soviet Red Army in Kyakhta, under the pistol of the commissar of the Red Army, would rearm itself at a fairly efficient pace, and might even arm all the citizens into a wartime militia, and then turn the entire city into a fortress to resist the attack of the [***] team, but the order to attack was very clear, no matter what was in front of it, it must be leveled as quickly as possible.

"The Soviet devils are bombing the building, and it seems that they really want to fight a bloody urban attack and defense war with us."

With a low explosion, He An saw through the telescope that a small four-story building had been blown down, and among the splashes of bricks and stones, the sloping building happened to block a street.

Zhang Dafu came to He An's side as a guard temporarily assigned to the deputy battalion commander, who was always carefully guarding the old boss deputy battalion commander after the troops invaded the Soviet Union. Because, coincidentally, the battalion commander of their battalion has just been transferred to the reserve force as the regiment commander, and although He An is the deputy battalion commander, he is also the main battalion commander, responsible for directing the combat of this battalion.

"Deputy battalion commander, if you attack this, you will have to sacrifice a lot of brothers." Zhang Dafu said worriedly, although he had already seen the power of large-scale armored forces along the way, he was a little worried in this half-ruined city, which was a city where all the people were soldiers.

"It's really stupid for you to attack with a gun, you are willing, the regiment commander and division commander are still unwilling. You take people to keep an eye on the left flank in charge of our battalion, although the Soviets knew that we were coming and were frightened and retreated into the city, but they should not be careless, don't be squatted in the snow pit by Maozi to practice guns. He An handed the telescope to Zhang Dafu, asked him to stare at the Soviets on his behalf, and ran to ask the regiment commander how to fight later.

When He An found the armored command vehicle of the 1st Tank Regiment and Jiang Zhuxing, the commander of the 1st Infantry Regiment, Jiang Zhuxing was arranging an attack plan with Ye Yuguo, the commander of the 1st Tank Regiment.

"He An, you kid is here well, this just has a task."

Jiang Zhuxing was originally thinking about whether to give the combat mission to the first battalion or the second battalion, but he didn't expect He An from the second battalion to bump into him by himself, so he thought about letting him go. When He An was transferred back to the main field unit to serve as deputy battalion commander, the regiment organized a small-scale exercise, and he was very impressed by this retransferred deputy battalion commander. He is bold in combat, coarse and detailed, knows how to boldly use new weapons, and also knows how to be flexible.

"Report, I'm also here to fight." He An saluted.

"Battalion Commander He, tell me, how to fight this Kyakhta? According to the orders of our superiors, we had only 15 minutes to prepare from stopping the march and preparing for battle to launching an attack.

The higher authorities do not ask us two regiments to take Kyakhta, but they must buy time for the follow-up troops, as long as we can occupy a city, our follow-up tank divisions and infantry divisions can reach, and Kyakhta will be self-defeating. "The head of the vanguard tank regiment, Ye Yuguo, is not familiar with this infantry battalion commander named He An, but he does know that there is a famous lieutenant general in the Republic who is also called this name, "Your name is good, if Lieutenant General He An is so powerful, take Kyakhta, I invite you to eat barbecue and drink rice wine." ”

Speaking of which, He An's battalion is also in the establishment of the Fifth Armored Army, and it is only an infantry auxiliary operation.

In front of these two, He An didn't brag nonsense, he sat straight over, pointed to the tactical map on the table and said, "Time is precious, Commander Ye has an order, and I will get an axe in the class." An armored regiment and an infantry regiment seem to be far less than the Soviet defenders, but we can quickly take a large area of the city and compress the living space of the Soviet army.

To cut a long story short, I just found out that the Soviets were bombing the building, and they were trying to artificially create a city wall that would be conducive to their defense. Artificially created obstacles, what allows us to attack at the moment is the part where they concentrate their forces on defense.

I think the Soviets are strictly implementing what they learned from the Germans, and applying the experience of the defensive battles of Leningrad or Stalingrad to these small cities.

Commander Ye, according to the thickness of the armor of our tanks, as long as it does not encounter a large-scale anti-tank minefield, unless it is planted by the enemy at close range with explosive packs, or is directly hit by large-caliber anti-tank guns at close range, in street fighting, with a well-trained, powerful and suitable infantry unit, with a number of elite squads, then it is almost invincible.

Well, I suggest, first call for a round of aerial bombardment, although I don't know how strong the air strikes will be, of course, the more intense the better.

Then concentrate artillery fire on the front part of the city, which is also the main target area that we may take, and carry out long-range and indiscriminate attacks on any suspicious buildings, buildings, street fortifications. Infantry armed with flamethrowers, bazookas, grenades, submachine guns or fully automatic rifles were then organized to follow up with the tank troops. The speed of the attack must be fast, the suspicious targets must be resolutely destroyed, and it is better to waste more ammunition than to let the Soviets hide behind bricks and ruins and shoot coldly. ”

As the most elite of the five armies in addition to the Guards stationed in Hanjing, the equipment of the Fifth Panzer Army can be described as very good. The two current tanks, the Tiger 3 and the Tiger 2, although both are medium tanks, this is the Chinese classification method. In essence, they are not much different from the current Soviet and German heavy tanks in terms of protection and firepower intensity, as well as battlefield survivability, but have a stronger ability to maneuver and pass through the battlefield. As auxiliary combat vehicles, self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicles and mine-clearing/digging multi-purpose armored vehicles have also begun to be deployed at the armored regiment level, although at the regimental level, there are only one of them each.

In terms of infantry weapons, the number of flamethrowers, rocket launchers and submachine guns in the infantry units has reached the standard of being able to meet the basic combat needs, although there are fewer grenades and fully automatic rifles, the former is very convenient to carry and can directly fire grenades, and the latter Chinese automatic rifles use bullets that are common to the Chinese semi-automatic type, and the logistics supply is very convenient.

After all, as a fist army, the equipment must always be stronger than the enemy army in order to ensure the overwhelming equipment superiority.

After listening to He An's suggestion, Ye Yuguo couldn't help but be slightly stunned, this idea was similar to the assault idea formulated by the division headquarters, and he couldn't help but secretly say, although this He An is only a battalion commander, at least he has a wide range of knowledge, and his vision is more of a global view.

"Okay, Commander Jiang, the task of infantry follow-up will be handed over to Deputy Battalion Commander He's second battalion in a while. According to what he said, concentrate on automatic weapons, bazookas and flamethrowers, and grenades, these things are also sharp weapons for urban combat.

According to the plan, we have coordinated the air forces in advance, and in 10 minutes the second wave of air strikes against Kyakhta will begin. ”

Jiang Zhuxing laughed, patted He An's shoulder and said, "No wonder others say that if you didn't transfer back then, it is likely that you would have risen step by step, and it really makes sense." This time, if you can take a quarter of the city before the main force arrives, you will be considered to have completed the task, and if you exceed it, you will be a meritorious service. ”

"It's a pity that you kid is not from our tank regiment. Go ahead. Ye Yuguo also said with a smile, signaling that he could go and prepare the troops.

He An saluted and got out of the armored car, spit out a large mouthful of exhaust gas inhaled into his lungs, but he secretly said in his heart, he blamed his fate for not being good, he got motion sickness from the first time he followed his brother-in-law into the armored car, and then completely gave up the idea of entering the armored army, and it was enough to enter the infantry unit of the armored group army.

As for the overall situation and operational theory, he didn't take it too seriously. On the one hand, he studied in the military school system, on the other hand, he loved the military very much when he was a child, but since he was a child, he was influenced by his brother-in-law's various theories, and he was partial to his own good questions and everything related to the military, and his brother-in-law loved himself and knew everything and said everything.

He still remembers what his brother-in-law said to him when he graduated from the military academy that year:

"The method of dealing with the enemy is very simple: First, we must not show mercy and be resolute in our will to fight. The second is to use all the best resources you can concentrate to defeat the enemy as quickly as possible. Although our country is not very rich, it is not so poor that in order to save a shell, a few bullets, and a few new pieces of equipment, let the soldiers exchange their lives for the results of the war.

On the enemy's territory, things that are more valuable than these munitions, everywhere, occupy their territory, rob their resources, and we can produce a hundred thousand times, a million times more war materials than the battle consumes.

The ancients said that once a success will be achieved, ten thousand bones will wither, and many people think that war is sacrifice, that is, at any cost, even if their own side dies thousands or even millions of people. But what I want to say is that once it is successful, it should be the enemy's bones. One day if you can do it, I will personally confer on you the rank of general. ”

What he envisioned was a combination of land and air, concentrating superior weapons, and destroying the enemy as quickly as possible.

…… In Kyakhta, the supreme commander of the Soviet army, deputy commander of the Far Eastern Front, commander of the 3rd Red Banner Reading Army, which is subordinate to the Western Siberian Military District, Colonel-General Smorodinov, is nervously awaiting the latest orders from the Far Eastern Front.

In the original plan, Admiral Smorodinov was going to the Sino-Soviet border defense line to secretly inspect the work, and as a result, coincidentally, the convoy spotted a group of Chinese air raid aircraft on the way. The air raid group had an important task on its shoulders, and the small convoy was not taken into account, allowing Admiral Smorodinov and many high-ranking officers and military commissars of the Red Banner Reading Third Army to escape.

"General, the headquarters told us to hold on and wait for reinforcements, and if necessary, we can blow up the entire city."

The communications staff read out the latest order of the front, which was also the final result.

"I replied to Comrade Commander of the Front Army, saying that we would resolutely and inflict a large number of casualties on the squadron with the iron-blooded spirit of the Soviet-Peacekeeping Army."

Admiral Smorodinov walked back to the sand table table, looked at this miniature model of the sand table of Kyakhta city, pondered for a moment, and then said, "General Vateln, do you have any new information about the current war situation?" ”

The deputy chief of staff from the Far Eastern Front straightened his uniform, and then quickly replied, "General, at present, the entire Red Banner Reading Third Army, except for the part that is stationed in Kyakhta, and a small part that is urgently shrinking, is in a state of inaccessibility. According to the analysis, they were most likely surrounded by the superior forces of the Chinese.

Although we have received reports from some battalion and regimental units that they are on their way back to Kyakhta. However, the vanguard of the Chinese has already arrived in Kyakhta, and they are still on their way...... It is foreseeable that if we fail to launch a counterattack, the troops in this section of the Kyakhta-China border will become prisoners of the Chinese.

We have no reinforcements, and the nearest Red Banner Reading First Army, Red Banner Reading 4th Army, have already been surrounded. The 12th Army, 100 kilometers from us. The latest situation is that they are being bombed by the Chinese, urgently building a defensive line in the air strike. ”

Admiral Smorodinov couldn't help frowning, this defensive line against the Mongolian direction was built according to Marshal Zhukov's suggestion, although there was no danger to defend and it was not particularly strong, but a large number of troops were stationed. The three Red Banner Reading Group Armies were deployed along the border line several hundred kilometers long and 100 kilometers deep, and the echelons were densely arranged.

According to Comrade Zhukov's predictions, at the beginning of the war, this line of defense should be held for at least 48 hours, so that other units of the Far Eastern Front could be mobilized to support.

But now, not to mention 48 hours, 4.8 hours are far from coming, according to the information he has received, in the north-northwest direction of Kyakhta, 100 kilometers north of the dimension, there are already emergency and distress calls.

"Have you counted all the troops, guns, ammunition, explosives, and anti-tank weapons in the city?" Admiral Smorodinov asked.

"General, since Kyakhta is an important turnover city on the Soviet-Mongolian border defense line, there are currently 70,000 inhabitants in the city, including 23,000 civilians.

The airfield was bombed in the first wave of air strikes, and the two tank regiments stationed nearby, like the tank units in the rest of the defensive line, were bombed by the destruction surname and have lost their combat capability, and there are currently fewer than 30 tanks ready for battle.

In terms of guns, there are more than 40,000 guns of various types, a total of 125 anti-tank guns/cannons and flat-fire guns, and countless bullets and explosives. In addition, the remaining anti-aircraft guns are already hidden in place and ready for anti-aircraft operations. ”

A staff officer, who had just received the statistical results, replied quickly.

Admiral Smorodinov nodded, didn't say anything more, got up and straightened his military cap, and said, "Send all the weapons and scatter the surplus soldiers to every street, every building, every piece of ruins." We are not 23,000 soldiers, but more than 90,000 soldiers who can fight to the death with the Chinese.

Of course, if someone cowardly wants to surrender to the enemy, or betrays the revolution, I and the two comrades of the Military Commissar will authorize you to ......"

Many Soviet officers present nodded, this is indeed the most effective way, pointing guns at civilians to fight the enemy, civilians are at least willing to rush forward, instead of turning their heads to find death, Admiral Smorodinov should have a way.

"Comrades, we will do everything to inflict indelible casualties on the Chinese. I say to the great Comrade Stalin, we will definitely win. "Admiral Smorodinov finally said something that no one knows whether it is true or not.

However, his orders were carried out in place, and the entire city began to rapidly deploy combat squads and distribute weapons to large numbers of civilians, accompanied of course by the rapid sound of machine-gun or submachine gun fire and the occasional chilling Russian voice.

Those who resisted, those who were unwilling to take up arms, were shot on the spot, and the rest had no choice but to numbly take up arms to resist the so-called Chinese enemy. In fact, at this time, it did not matter who the enemy was, and they could not tell whether the fierce soldiers in front of them and the political commissars wearing red armbands were enemies, or those who had not met but were said to be very powerful enemies.

Take up arms just so that you don't have to be charged with counter-revolutionary crimes, and you don't have to die first. The gradual defeat of the Soviet-German war and the war in the Far East, at least in some remote areas, is infinitely weakening the persuasiveness of the title Soviet.

At this time, Colonel-General Smorodinov was talking about the battlefield with several military commissars, as well as the deputy chief of staff, General Vateln.

“…… We're going to blow up part of the street of the tax office, and this street...... Chinese the width of the tanks will be reduced again, and then we will send a group of brave Bolshe-Vik soldiers to use explosive packs and even grenades against their tanks, anti-tank guns and other anti-tank weapons are too small......" A staff officer was telling a number of senior Soviet officers about the arrangement of the street fighting.

"Well done, Vateln, three months ago, you went to the Moscow battlefield to study, and these staff officers also studied on the Eastern Front. Here, our Kyakhta, you should be able to find many microcosms of the defensive battles of Moscow. The Chinese have no experience in large-scale urban offensive and defensive warfare, and in this regard, we will teach them a good lesson. "Although Admiral Smorodinov was also worried about the war, he seemed to have some determination, but calmed down, preparing to kill a large number of Chinese in this small city, but because of its special geographical location, it is easier to defend than ordinary cities." There is a famous saying on the Eastern Front, where the soldiers are shouting 'Moscow is behind us' to charge, and here, perhaps, we should say, 'Behind us is the Trans-Siberian Railway', ho ho ......"

General Vateln: "Comrade Deputy Commander-in-Chief, what worries us most at present is that although we have rich combat experience on the Eastern Front, we are also not familiar with the fighting methods of the Chinese. In the border war of that year, although the situation was completely tilted to the side of the Chinese, it was only a local offensive and defensive battle, and this time, they also used sharp attacks to quickly break through the defense line, but it was a full-scale war.

If the Chinese army is not as strong as the Germans, or weaker than them, then we will teach what is the combat style of the world's old army. If it's the other way around, the problem can be very serious......"

"Let's go, don't worry, let's go into the basement and command this offensive and defensive battle remotely. Perhaps, when the Chinese bypassed and sabotaged the Trans-Siberian Railway, we were still holding out here, and we needed to be prepared for a long battle, and maybe we would be able to wait for reinforcements in the future. ”

The senior generals, including General Vateln, were in a heavy mood, and they understood, including the deputy commander-in-chief of the general, that in the face of such a huge offensive, it was only a matter of time before Kyakhta was lost, and it was impossible to wait for any reinforcements, nor could it hold out for long. But since the Supreme Commander has decided to fight the Chinese to the end and kill and wound the Chinese as much as possible, they will do the same. At this time, even if the military commissar opposed, it made no sense, because the city was about to be surrounded, and the two-legged Red Army soldiers, no matter how brave, could not run past the Chinese inside the tank.

Unlike the dejected military commissar and several other officers, after entering the basement, Admiral Smorodinov calmed down, opened a good bottle of Volga spirits, took a plate of four-ripe roast beef that the guards had just cut, and motioned for the others to eat together.

However, only the next moment, when Admiral Smorodinov reached for the glass, there was a violent explosion, and the glass was shaken to the ground.

Twenty seconds later, a communications staff officer ran into the basement and shouted in a panic, "General, air raid, air raid, the sky is full of Chinese planes......

When Admiral Smorodinov heard this, he closed his eyes slightly, and only after half a sound did he walk to the periscope in the corner and look at the situation on the ground, only to see that in mid-air within the line of sight of a periscope, there were no less than four or five planes with 'incomparably clear nationality', and they were frantically dropping bombs...... In the next moment, all the people in Kyakhta who had not yet died, or had fainted, felt great fear and shock.

A city of less than 100,000 people, although not small, welcomed a second wave of as many as fifty Chinese bombers.

What is the scene of 50 bombers flying over a city of 100,000 people? The people in Kyakhta know very well.

They could feel that there were so many enemy planes, because any Soviet man who looked into the sky from his point of view could see more than ten or even twenty planes, seemingly dropping bombs directly above his head.

The bombs that fell from the sky seemed to have been dropped on him.

These Chinese bombers also unscrupulously opened the hatches and dropped bombs one after another, and in the violent explosion, not only a large number of people were killed and wounded, but also buildings that were not of high quality or hard were quickly knocked down.

Even though there was once a local Kyakhta front-line airfield, neither the Soviet army nor civilians had ever seen so many bombers flying into the sky together, and what was worse was that they belonged to the enemy.

Even in the first wave of air strikes on important grounds, the number of aircraft was not so large.

Rumble!

Rumble!

The small buildings were torn down, the violent explosions, the high-intensity explosive bombs, in dealing with these small buildings that are not much different from shoddy projects, it is not difficult, especially, there are many of them, one is not enough, two or three can always knock down a small building.

However, at this time, some Soviet officers finally came to their senses and discovered the problems in the previous orders issued by the senior officers to hold on.

-- Kyakhta is less than 100 kilometers away from China's border and less than 150 kilometers away from their front-line airfield.

...... "Good girl, this fight is fierce enough." ”

Although Kyakhta is a border city, with military use and few high-rise buildings, I couldn't help but be shocked to see dozens of bombers dropping a string of aerial bombs over it, and the Chinese tank and infantry units preparing to launch an attack. Everyone, even the two vanguard leaders, couldn't help but gasp.

They couldn't imagine how they would feel if China's cities were bombarded with this intensity.

After all, in peacetime exercises, it is not that dozens of bombers will be allowed to bomb a city. Compared to just watching the rocks crack and splash when you bomb the hills, the satisfaction and comfort of watching the Soviets' cities be blown to ruins.

He An has a wide range of military hobbies, and because of his special identity, he took a general look at the bombers in the sky, and found that the H-2 and H-3 are the main forces, and the big guys should be T-32 or T-35 Thor bombers, but he still regrets that he did not find the legendary super big guys.

"It's still the company commander who is right, the Soviets are the same old thing, they can't fight a war, so they tie the civilians and the city together and push them up. The Germans eat their set, and they themselves eat their set, and we don't eat them. One soldier sighed.

"Yes, but we are not invaders, the commissar said last time that we are here to liberate them."

"In the past, some people in the newspapers said that the Wehrmacht can actually be called the People's Liberation Army, Hitler is threatening to occupy the whole world, we can also amplify the artillery and liberate the whole world, I think Stalin is the first to be overthrown."

"Hahaha......"

Looking at this level of bombing, He An shook his head violently, realizing that he still underestimated the support of the Air Force. If Kyakhta is thousands of kilometers away from China, or even farther away, then there must be no such strong air force support, but if it is close at hand, it is also a good way to rely on powerful air strikes to quickly solve the cities within the flight range of the aircraft.

The air raid did not last long, and it was only a quarter of an hour from the arrival of the 50 bombers to the time they returned after dropping their bombs.

At this time, the tank guns of the tank regiment also opened fire, basically aiming at some buildings or streets in front of the city, street fortifications that can be clearly seen through telescopes, etc.

When the last plane, just as it was about to leave the battlefield, the time for the attack had arrived.

"Blow the trumpet!!"

Ye Yuguo, the commander of the armored regiment in charge of the command, gave an order to the commander of the division.

"Didi Dudu ......"

When the trumpet sounded, the entire 1st Tank Regiment was the first to start, followed by the 2nd Infantry Battalion commanded by He An.

"Brothers, come with me!!"

He An jumped up from the snow, raised his arms and shouted, while carrying a 41-year-old MP41 submachine gun, followed behind the tank unit, and rushed frantically towards Kyakhta. After many years, after fighting on the border, he once again experienced the super pleasure of charging in a swarm, that feeling, than with the daughter-in-law who was very beautiful, but had no feelings at all - love was still stronger, the fire in his whole body was about to burn, what money, wealth, the old man's possible anger, and even the body armor that his sister secretly sent when he parted, and told him some of the essentials of protection, were all left behind by him.

He only remembered one sentence, the words said by the instructor of the recruit company back then: "On the battlefield, as a grassroots officer, if you want your soldiers to rush with you, you shout 'Brothers, rush with Lao Tzu', instead of letting your soldiers charge into battle, while you are greedy for life and afraid of death behind." ”

Speaking of which, He An really ran as fast as the elite soldiers in the army, and was soon surpassed by many soldiers, but even so, everyone still remembered the new deputy battalion commander, just because, like other respected grassroots leaders, he did not come to take military merits during the war, but really dared to take the lead in the charge, at least for this point, everyone recognized him.

He An ran and ran, and soon found that Zhang Dafu rushed in front of him, but no longer accelerated, but blocked himself unhurriedly.

"Damn, you really blocked the gun for Lao Tzu." He An rushed to the position next to him, and shouted, "Let's hurry up and keep up with the tank, you see the front of this city, it has been bombed into ruins, follow the iron guy, clean up those remnants of the defeated army, this battle of Kyakhta is over." ”

"Okay, deputy battalion commander, I'll use these two guys to follow you, from near and far."

Zhang Dafu was born in the countryside, he had a lot of strength, while running, he was carrying a bazooka on one shoulder, a submachine gun was hanging on his waist, and he could still hold down the three rockets in the sac behind his back with one hand.

He hit the rocket launcher accurately, and He An specially arranged for another communication guard equipped with a grenade to carry a rocket for him. Three people, plus a flamethrower, a soldier holding a Chinese automatic rifle for medium and long-range fire suppression, while carrying some ammunition, five people are considered a combat group.

The moment they stepped into the ruins of the city, the group of four followed the tank in perfect harmony, both borrowing it for its own protection and carefully searching for any possible enemies.

Less than two minutes after entering the city, Zhang Dafu neatly took out the rocket, loaded it, and aimed it in a standard firing posture, aiming at a large piece of fallen brick ruins.

"Shh......h

Rumble!

The rockets flew straight into the ruins, blowing up three or four figures, and a twisted barrel, presumably a Soviet squad was hiding there, fiddling with an anti-tank gun/gun.

The Tiger 3 tank in front found the movement, the barrel grunted, a shell passed, and exploded in the broken wall behind the dodge point, this time no one was blown up, but there were some stumps and broken arms flying up, the No. 3 Tiger and the No. 2 Tiger modification have strong firepower, the latest 88mm tank gun, can fire a variety of shells, just a shot of personnel grenade, the effect is good.

The tanks and the squad continued to advance, during which there were several false alarms, but they were all remotely solved by tank guns, and the entrance to the city was not too wide, and one tank regiment was scattered into it, and the other one, or two, could always be seen in the naked eye.

After walking for a while, the team finally reached an alley that had escaped the air raids and the first round of indiscriminate shelling.

"Ulla...... Ula ......"

Almost instantly, Soviet troops appeared all over the alley, in the corners, behind the broken walls, and even on the broken second floor, under the large pieces of broken wood.

He An preliminarily counted, good guy, there are no less than 20 people, a person dressed as a petty officer on the other side shouted, took the lead in rushing over with an explosive bag, and the others, some with explosives bags, and some raised their guns to shoot.

"Da Da Da ......"

I didn't have time to think about it, the two submachine guns in the hands of He An and Zhang Dafu, another Chinese-style automatic rifle, and three automatic guns roared quickly, one of the trump cards of street fighting, submachine guns and automatic rifles played a very high role in this short range of less than fifty meters, and although the other party's rifle shooting density was small, most of them were also blocked by the huge hull of the tank, but one of the ** sand submachine guns brought a greater threat.

"Spit fire, burn them to Lao Tzu. Throw grenades. He An roared, such a roadway straggler, the tank was naturally unable to cope for a while, two submachine guns and a fully automatic rifle suppressed fire, five people and a tank, against more than 20 Soviet stragglers, the bazooka could not help much, so it could only rely on flamethrowers and grenades.

The flamethrower adjusted the flamethrower slightly, and as soon as he turned on the flamethrower button, a thick fire dragon came out of the flamethrower's muzzle, burning several Soviet soldiers who were the most threatening on the broken wall into burning men on the spot and fell down.

The momentum of the Soviet army weakened slightly, and the flamethrower immediately turned off the fire and squatted on the ground, and suddenly came out from behind the butt of the tank, another eruption, but this time it was sprayed to the front of the yard.

At the same time, the signal soldier who was responsible for the rocket, did not use a grenade gun, such a close distance, directly took out two sweet potatoes, pulled off a safety ring and threw it out, don't look at it as a signal soldier, this grenade was thrown very quickly, a few efforts, that is, several sweet potato eggs were thrown over, and the other party, except for a few mines thrown at the beginning, was bounced off by the tank, and the rest did not pose a threat, after all, He An's squad has two submachine guns, a fully automatic rifle, a flamethrower, and there are many Soviet soldiers, But it was exhausted, and although the tank was a target at this time, it turned into the best infantry bunker.

The squadron was originally strong in firepower and far better equipped than the Soviet army, not to mention the concentration of automatic weapons in these elite squads, while the Soviet troops were second-rate Far Eastern Fronts, not the most elite Soviet Red Army on the Soviet-German battlefield or the Far Eastern battlefield.

In less than three hours, with the cooperation of elite infantry squads, the hundreds of tanks of the tank regiment, after tearing apart the situation in Kyakhta, left nearly one regiment of infantry units to quickly follow up, and soon occupied nearly half of the city, and the casualties were very small.

According to the battle plan, the tank regiment and infantry units did not blindly advance into the depths of the city, but divided the urban areas into tank units, and then the infantry units quickly disarmed and captured the Soviet troops or armed civilians in that urban area with superior firepower.

Of course, most of the Soviet troops and armed civilians faced these big Chinese bites, and in the absence of sufficient anti-tank weapons, the main force was withdrawn to the remaining small half of the city.

The Soviets were horrified to find that in the face of the dense automatic fire of the Chinese, the soldiers of the squad could not approach the tank at all with explosive packs, and threw them outside or near the tank, and could not blow up the tank, while the tank gun and the flat-fire gun hit several times, but the destruction rate was less than 10%.

Of course, when the Chinese tanks found that the Soviet soldiers dared to put the anti-aircraft guns on the other side of the street, and then opened fire unscrupulously, after the first shot, it was often a tank gun that fired back, and even the people and the guns bombed into the sky.

And before the Kyakhta general offensive was launched, another infantry regiment had already arrived. The two regiments finally converged.

"Prepare for shelling!"

As soon as the Soviet army contracted, Ye Xingguo ordered a concentrated artillery bombardment, and this rush, not to mention the killed and wounded Soviet troops, the Soviet army was driven back by a large number of concentrated forces.

Quickly encircle and suppress a area, concentrate on shelling a area, and then advance. It's like a drill...... And just fifteen minutes later, the infantry units that arrived in tanks, armored vehicles, or even trucks had already reached one division, and the tank units had reached almost two divisions, so Kyakhta was cleanly surrounded.

He An was finally able to sit on the ruins to catch his breath, and during the four hours of fighting, he and the soldiers of the group had already replenished their field rations and drinking water.

Fortunately, he did not need to command the three companies of the second battalion to fight for the time being, after all, in addition to the hundreds of elite squads in the second battalion, the task of the other infantry only needed to follow the company commander and eliminate the Soviet troops in the encircled area.

"Deputy battalion commander, come, you drink some more water, you are tired enough to choke. There are thousands of old hairs in this slap of land, and after this artillery battle, we can also follow the large army to clean up the mess. Zhang Dafu handed over a pot of water, He An's pot, which was pierced by a bullet just now and leaked.

"Well, don't drink it, you can't run if you drink too much, and it may be a general attack after a while. If this runs slowly, the captives will not be caught by us, fortunately for a long time, if the final impotence occurs, it is a pity, no matter how you say it, you have to catch a batch of good goods. ”

He An pointed to a group of Soviet troops next to him, which was the Soviet army that had just surrendered in white underwear on the edge of being surrounded, more and more Soviet troops and armed civilians were surrendering, but the core part of the Soviet army was still trying to resist.

", listen to your deputy battalion commander, let's wait for the position in front."

The five-person team continued to set off, but Zhang Dafu's bazooka ran out, so he had to replace it with another submachine gun, and one person hung two.

Sure enough, from time to time, as soon as the artillery stopped, the general assault really began.

Listening to the earth-shattering charging shouts, Zhang Dafu's face was almost dripping with bitterness, "Deputy battalion commander, what's the matter, the sky is big, where can I find important prisoners?" Otherwise, if you see someone in military uniform, just grab a few, I know the military rank. ”

"You know that the military rank has a fart use, Lao Tzu forgot to tell you that Lao Tzu is proficient in three languages, in addition to Chinese, English and Russian. Hahaha......"

He An laughed and said, in the years before he went to the military academy, in addition to studying, he didn't have any extracurricular hobbies in college, and he didn't have a female classmate who was interested in it.

With a flicker of his eyes, the kid immediately found a target, two Soviet officers with briefcases who were being escorted, who were being pushed to the ground and pointed guns at their heads.

"Brother, borrow it and ask them something." He An walked over quickly, handed over a pack of Chinese cigarettes, and the submachine gun smoothly replaced the Chinese semi-automatic, and resisted one of the Soviet staff officers, and asked a few quick questions in Russian, and the two officers answered quickly and slowly, during which He An suddenly changed his face and shot one of the Soviet officers in the thigh, and immediately the officer howled and screamed, and blood flowed everywhere.

The result was very good, and after a while, He An got the information he wanted from the intact Soviet major, and this time he also called the soldiers who had captured the two officers, and a group of six people walked towards a ruin according to the guidance of the captured Soviet officer who was 'informing'.

"Deputy battalion commander, what are you doing here?"

"These two Maozi are communications staff officers, and they have a mark on their briefcase, which must have been captured in a hurry at the end, and they didn't have time to lose it." He An smiled mysteriously.

"Deputy battalion commander, you are so powerful, you even know and speak Russian."

A few minutes later, braving the increasingly sparse gunfire, the group finally came to a corner of a house that had been blown down.

"Damn, there's a gunshot......"

Listening closely, He An suddenly heard the sound of gunfire coming from the ground, because it was very close, he heard it very clearly, the intact Soviet officer, bent down and dragged away a piece of military canvas in front of him, and suddenly revealed the entrance to the stairs of a basement, and there were gunshots coming from inside.

Huh~ He An took out the only special bullet he got from the signal soldier, which was a flashbang, opened the safe, and threw it into the underground staircase, and then there was a scream in the basement.

"Up!"

The group quickly jumped into the basement, and even the soldier guarding the Soviet officer knocked out the major staff officer prisoner with a knife in one hand, and the six quickly rushed in.

"Don't move, hands up, you're captured!"

When the six people rushed in, they were instantly startled by the Soviet officers who fell to the ground, and just now the flash put down these officers outside, and when several people rushed into the two rooms, they found a series of flashing stars.

"Rich, Major General, Lieutenant General...... Damn, this admiral committed suicide!! ”

A moment later, after a little counting of the results of the battle, except for General Smorodinov and the other two major generals who chose to commit suicide, the other generals all chose to surrender, and some pretended to pick up their pistols, but when these Chinese soldiers rushed in, they quickly put it down.

He An was ecstatic, he had just participated in the war, and he would be able to make meritorious contributions, if he took it back and talked to the old man after the war, it would be the best thing to gag him.

He almost couldn't help but take out his cigarette and give it to these officers, comforting them, it's not a big deal, it's just that he was captured, and he helped himself a lot, so he was liberated, and he didn't want to be an ancient melon.

Of course, he was just thinking about it. In war, there will always be prisoner of war camps waiting for these prisoners.

Kyakhta was finally captured, and in addition to General Smorodinov and a few generals, many of the generals of the Far Eastern Front who came to inspect the front line, as well as several generals of the Red Banner Reading Army, became prisoners, and the number of senior officers who were finally captured in the basement alone was as many as 15 people.

Both China and the Soviet Union are well aware of the fact that as soon as Kyakhta is broken, as the land defenders are quickly encircled and annihilated by the Chinese armored forces, and some small and medium-sized cities that are not in the climate are quickly broken through, then what awaits both sides is a tank battle that may be a little hasty, or an air battle.

Of course, it would also be a counterattack by the Soviets to try to save face and halt the offensive momentum of the Chinese [***] team.
