Su Yusheng did not order the forward troops to attack again, and the first step had been completed by taking the first defensive position of the Soviet Union. He didn't want to waste his troops on the Soviet defense line, because the Soviet Union had 600,000 troops, and if he held on, it would be a difficult bone to gnaw.

For a time, the forward forces of both sides faced off on two lines of defense one kilometer apart. The Chinese and Soviet armies were burying their heads in reinforcing their positions, and neither of them had any intention of going out of the defensive line to attack.

Su Yusheng didn't want to attack like this, how could Zhukov dare to attack casually, one was that he didn't want to waste unnecessary troops, and the other was that he didn't even know the other party's military strength. Su Yusheng didn't want to, Zhukov didn't dare. That's what happened.

And secretly, the game between the two sides has just begun.

At dawn, nearly 1,000 Soviet scouts bypassed the battlefield and secretly infiltrated China. He was in a group of more than a dozen people, and after entering the territory of China, he immediately dispersed. Sneak marches towards the rear of China, bypassing road lines and wide snowy fields along the way, and taking places that are far off the beaten track.

They were very cautious for fear of being discovered, but they didn't know that the Chinese side already knew their plan and was ready to "welcome" them. They all thought that their actions were unaware, and planned to come in quietly and leave quietly.

At the time of the departure of these Soviet scouts, a special operations group on the Chinese side had also been assembled, and the special operations team was directly ordered by Su Yusheng. It is half of the special operations force of the Mongolian Military Region and the most powerful saber in the whole army.

There is no shortage of special forces in all structures of the Chinese armed forces, and excluding the two special forces under the direct leadership of Wang Xiaoshan, the military region-level formations have all set up their own special operations units, which are specially used to conduct special operations and carry out unconventional combat tasks.

At the same time, the special forces of various military regions and arms also have a role, that is, they become the source of troops for Wang Xiaoshan's two special forces. The members of Wang Xiaoshan's troops are all drawn from the special forces of various military regions and units, and every year they will add fresh blood, and how many people will be recruited each year, and how many people will be eliminated one after another. And those who are eliminated will return to their original troops.

The Mongolian Military Region has maintained a 1,000-strong special operations force, which is under the direct leadership of the military region, in the same training method as the two special forces led by Wang Xiaoshan. In the Sino-Soviet war, Su Yusheng took half of his strength and participated in the upcoming battle.

Originally, Su Yusheng did not plan to use this force so quickly, but since Zhukov sent a small force to infiltrate China, Su Yusheng had no intention of continuing to hide. He planned to tell these Soviet scouts who dared to enter the territory of China to fall at least eighty percent, and if they could leave two percent to go back to report the news.

In the darkness of the night, a special forces force of five hundred people assembled at the sound of orders. The rumbling cannon fire in front of them aroused their fighting enthusiasm, and by this time they were all in high spirits.

It has the uniform of ordinary troops, all new weapons and equipment, a full of spirit, and awe-inspiring eyes. Although this army is only 500 people, it gives people an intuitive feeling as if they are facing countless beasts of the wilderness.

The commander of this special operations group said after the troops gathered: "According to intelligence, nearly 1,000 elite soldiers dispatched by the Soviet Union secretly crossed the border and infiltrated into China, in a vain attempt to steal the deployment of our troops. According to the order of the theater commander, it is up to us to decide these so-called Soviet elites. Do you have faith? ”

"Yes."

"Very well, I know that you all look forward to being selected by the LTTE one day, because that is the dream place of all the special forces in China. However, there are tens of thousands of special forces in the country, and the total number of those two special forces is only 2,000, and there are many monks and few porridges, and the number of places recruited every year is only a few dozen. And if you want to be selected, you must show a proud record so that you can get closer to the threshold of the Tigers. This operation is your best chance to show your strength and prove that you are not qualified to enter the Tigers.

Now let's talk about the goal of this operation,......, is clear? ”

"Clear!"

"Let's go."

At the sound of the order, the 500-strong special forces walked out of the barracks, then dispersed, and disappeared into the vast night in combat groups.

On the Soviet side, nearly 1,000 Soviet scouts were divided into nearly 100 squads and quietly went to the rear of the Chinese army. None of them knew that there were already people waiting for them in front of them.

Wrapped in a white military uniform, Bervshka followed her teammates with a rifle on her back, her eyes under her cotton military hat keeping an eye on her surroundings. He was the eldest son in the family, who was called up in the Soviet Red Army, and when he was born, his father directly gave him the name of Zhovshka, which means the eldest son and the first child in the family.

Bervshka, like his comrades-in-arms who walked in front, is a veteran of several years. He has a lot of combat experience and has always been a scout. This time, Zhukov ordered the dispatch of elite scouts to China for reconnaissance, and he and several comrades-in-arms were selected to join the operation.

As the first Soviet soldiers to step into China in this battle, they all have a trace of pride in their hearts. It's just that they don't dare to be too careless, because this is someone's territory, and they don't know where they will suddenly encounter the Chinese army. And once they encounter the Chinese army, then their hope of returning alive will be very slim. Perhaps the best outcome is to be a prisoner of the Chinese army.

Therefore, their actions are to be careful and careful, for fear that they will not be able to complete the task and will throw their lives here. After all, it is possible that the Chinese army here is a heavy build-up, and it is careless.

Bervshka, who walked at the back of the line, looked behind him from time to time, and listened to the movements around him. They didn't walk very fast, and there was snow on the ground, and there was no way for them to go faster. And they walked through the woods, and they didn't dare to go fast at all.

By this time, the sky was already bright, and the battle for the forward positions was over, except for the occasional sound of artillery, the whole snowfield was very quiet.

Bervshka looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock in the morning. At this time, the leader of this team, Toliavsky, instructed the troops to suspend their advance.

"You guys take a look around." He took out his compass and looked at it, and said to a few of his subordinates. After the men left the group and went to carry out his orders, he spoke again: "Everyone take out dry food to replenish their strength. After saying that, he found a place to sit down, took out a piece of black bread from his bosom and nibbled on it.

Bervshka sat directly on the root of the tree, took out the black bread in his arms, and devoured it. In less than two minutes, he had finished the black bread in his hand, then took out a small flask, opened the lid and poured it, then immediately closed the lid, and then stuffed the flask into his arms.

"You said that we infiltrated the rear of the Chinese army like this, do they know? With such care, when will we get the job done? A thin inquiring voice sounded in Bervshka's ears.

"How would I know, but there's nothing wrong with being careful, I don't want to lie here." Bervshka replied softly.

"But we are too careful, according to me, how will the Chinese army know that we have infiltrated us, and we should march quickly to the rear, and finish the work before the other side can react. If we continue like this, we don't know when we will complete the task. Furthermore, the more time passes, the more exposed we become. ”

"Don't think about it, if you march in a hurry, you are looking for death. I estimate that our front is definitely heavily armed, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops there. And once we are exposed, we probably won't even be able to see the next time it gets dark. Bervshka heard the words of his comrades, shook his head and whispered.

"But the speed of such a march is too slow, and how can you be sure that the Chinese army is ahead, and if so, what do you need us to do here?" Just report this information to the top. ”

"It's just my intuition, we are definitely the location of a large force of the Chinese army in front of us. If you think about it, we have walked almost ten kilometers, and it can be said that we have penetrated deep into China, and this distance is very suitable for the layout of large corps. The war takes place on the border, and if the distance is long, it will not be able to quickly support the front line, and if the distance is too close, it will become the target of our artillery. I believe that it is impossible for the Chinese to be unaware of these things, and according to my estimate, the assembly point of the Chinese army is ahead. Berfshka whispered.

"Aren't we almost there?" Bervshka's comrades-in-arms asked in a whisper again.

"Almost, didn't you see Comrade Captain telling us to rest and replenish our strength? I guess he also thought of it, because the front is really where the Chinese army is located, so we won't have time to rest in the future. Bervshka nodded.

"Then why did Comrade Commander call us here, according to your analysis." The man looked puzzled and muttered quietly.

"It's different, you're still a scout, you don't have to think about it. What I said earlier is an estimate and has not yet been determined. Do you think that the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops will not think of this? It's just that speculation is speculation, and it must be confirmed before it can be established. If you want to command Comrade Commander to fight a war by analysis, then if the results of the analysis are skewed, then we will suffer great losses, and we don't know how many people will die at that time, and if we lose this war because of this, then who will be responsible. "Bervshka looks like he hates iron, but he doesn't make steel.

This is a very obvious truth, as Bervshka said, Zhukov would not have thought that the Chinese army would be gathered here? However, the battlefield situation is changing rapidly, and it is not possible to figure it out by analysis. And Zhukov had to answer for the battle, for the lives of six hundred thousand Soviet soldiers.
