Chapter 1116: The End of the Soviet Far East Army
Soon, the news that the two wings and the Lao Maozi tank cluster in the rear were devastatingly attacked by army aviation helicopters reached the ears of division commander Zheng Xinyu.
Without Lao Maozi's superior number of tank clusters in front of him, Division Commander Zheng Xinyu believed that even without the cover of air and army helicopters, the limited tanks and armored combat vehicles in his hands would be enough to tear the Lao Maozi infantry surrounded by himself to pieces. Let the big battlefield that completely belongs to you in front of you really become a meat grinder for Lao Maozi...
So, the excited division commander Zheng Xingyu did not think and hesitate for too long, and ordered with a confident face: "Comrades, the time has come for us to fight back. Now I order, all combat units, under the cover of the army aviation helicopters, according to the predetermined plan, to start a counterattack and destroy the old Maozi army in front of them......"
"Tank cluster, start assault ......"
"Boom ......" The order of division commander Zheng Xinyu has just been issued, and the remaining tanks are directly divided into three, with battalions and companies as units, with dense armored combat vehicles behind them, ordinary infantry... Directly like an unsheathed sword, it quickly rushed out of the position and rushed to the old Maozi assembly area...
"Boom, boom...... "On the battlefield full of gunsmoke and the smell of blood, heavy tanks, like a normal drill, quickly fired shells at the Lao Maozi infantry position a few hundred meters away....... With the spread of the explosion, clusters of orange-red fireballs directly swept away a large number of old Maozi's corpses, rising from the ground....
Suddenly, the old Maozi infantry, which had already fallen into chaos because of the sudden appearance of the army helicopter, faced with the sudden shelling and could harvest the fragments of their own lives at any time. Its messy formation is even more chaotic.
However, in the face of real death. There are still a lot of old Maozi officers. Showed his super high command ability ....
Chaos is chaos, more than half of the old Maozi soldiers are still in the roar of the commander. Quickly lay down on the ground ....
Some with the help of the cover of the corpses of colleagues on the ground, some with the help of the cover of shell craters, of course. More often, with the help of the cover of the wreckage of the tank in front of you....quickly set up all kinds of weapons and start a counterattack ...
"Whoosh, whoosh..."Several dull whistling sounds sounded on the battlefield, and several rockets, directly with orange-red tail flames. It roared past and smashed several tanks that were charging at the forefront ....
Without accident, three tanks, accompanied by three explosions, instantly turned into three huge fireballs ....
"Dog's day. It is simply impatient to dare to fight back under the nose of our army helicopter. Brothers, my eyes widened for me. Destroy everything you see. Let Lao Maozi know that I am an army aviation helicopter. Not only tanks, but also their infantry... Brothers, give me a hard beating......" The commander of the Army Aviation Regiment, who was still hovering over the battlefield, directly glared at a pair of eyes full of anger and roared loudly.
Suddenly, the army helicopter hovering at an altitude of dozens of meters on the battlefield, like a kitten smelling blood, quickly pounced on the battlefield, and pounced on the old hairy man who had exposed his figure on the battlefield...
For the blocking position where a large number of old Maozi are gathered, they are directly greeted with rockets. For those blocking positions where only a few old Maozi were gathered, two heavy machine guns in the engine room were used to greet them......
Tank shells that constantly exploded on the ground, shooting head-on at themselves in front of them, almost impermeable bullet nets... It was already so crushed that the old Maozi infantry couldn't lift their heads. And now, adding an attack from the air. It is conceivable that at this moment, the old Maozi who is still sticking to the battlefield is suffering from a lot of suffering...
With the cover of the army helicopters from the air, the Lao Maozi infantry no longer had any chance to counterattack.
The three-way offensive troops under the personal command of Division Commander Zheng Xinyu were directly like three unstoppable torrents of steel, and they entered Lao Maozi's position mightily......
In each direction of the offensive, at least twenty-four heavy tanks, twenty-four armored combat vehicles. All combined, that's almost a hundred cars with heavy machine guns... Such a huge number of vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns are evenly scattered on the battlefield with a frontal width of less than 200 meters, which directly means that a frontal width of two meters will be strafed by a vehicle-mounted heavy machine gun. Coupled with the bullets fired by a large number of infantry in the rear, the bullets in front of Lao Maozi are directly like an impenetrable bullet net....
A torrent of tanks swept away quickly, and under the sweep of such dense bullets, it directly left behind the corpses of Lao Maozi densely scattered all over the place...
In the face of such a bloody massacre, the remaining old Maozi, even if there is a prefect, even the coercion of the political commissar. Still desperate to escape from this torrent of steel that is getting closer and closer to him
As a result, the whole battle immediately turned into a rout that you chased after me. However, no matter how fast Lao Maozi escaped, it was impossible to escape the pursuit of tanks and armored fighting vehicles on the endless prairie...
Under the pursuit of the dense rain of bullets behind him, the old Maozi who fled one by one was directly shot and fell to the ground....
In less than half an hour, on the battlefield of Nuoda, except for a bloody road brought out by the pursuit of Lao Maozi by three tank clusters, only this bloody road remained, and the corpses of Lao Maozi could be seen everywhere...
"Division commander, it's over....it's over....this is a full five hundred heavy tanks, more than 10,000 old Maozi elites, just killed by us...."Looking at the bloody battlefield in front of him, his subordinates said dumbfounded.
As for why the battle in front of us was fought so sharply, there was only one reason, and that was the close cooperation between our army's army helicopters and ground tank units. Without these army helicopters, it would be impossible to give me a heavy tank division, and it would be impossible to solve the battle in such a short time. The division commander Zheng Xinyu said with a firm face.
"The division commander is right, but I didn't expect that the army aviation helicopter doesn't seem to be as powerful as the fighter, but his actual power is so great... By the way, division commander, the whole battle you just talked about was—" The chief of staff nodded in agreement, and then asked rhetorically.
"The task given to us by the commander-in-chief is to continue to attack and intersperse until it converges with the other four-way interspersed troops and directly divides the Lao Maozi Far Eastern Army in front of us into three, and then it can be regarded as officially completing the task...-" Zheng Xinyu said.
"That is, so far, our task, only half of it has been accomplished ....ahead, there are at least two kilometers of route, waiting for our offensive ..."
As soon as Division Commander Zheng Xinyu's words fell, the Chief of Staff, who had tasted the taste of the Army Aviation helicopter cover, directly assured with a confident face: "Division Commander, this is not simple....Now that we have the air reinforcement of the Army Aviation Helicopter, even if Lao Maozi builds a copper wall for us in front, it will be easily broken by our steel torrent..."
"Division commander, as long as you give me a squadron of army aviation helicopters, I promise, lead the assault team, within ten points, to break through the defense line of Lao Maozi in front of me..."
"Okay, in that case, then I'll give you a squadron of army aviation helicopters......"
The assault group led by Zheng Xinyu was supported by an army aviation regiment. Directly like a huge meat grinder, in a short period of time, wipe out all the incoming Lao Maozi troops...
The other four directions, reinforced by the same number of army aviation helicopters, also achieved great results ....
The commander-in-chief of the Soviet Far East Army, Colonel-General Gorodovikov, gave the Chinese army a huge trap that was completely shattered under the attack of the army helicopters. At the same time, it also paid a huge price of at least 60,000 old Maozi elites.
Plus the old Maozi troops who died on the way to the attack of the five assault groups. The entire Soviet Far Eastern Army, in less than a night, directly paid a huge casualty of 100,000 elites ...
Of course, that's not the most important thing.
After the great gift prepared by Admiral Gorodovikov to several assault clusters was successfully crushed. With the army aviation helicopter as a night combat weapon to join the battlefield, the combat effectiveness of several assault clusters has directly soared...
Under this new type of attack, several assault clusters can really be called overwhelming. The old Maozi blocking position in front of him didn't even have the power to strike a blow at all. In the face of a combined land-air strike by an assault group, a rout directly occurred ....
"Attack....continue to attack forward......" With a command sounding in the middle of the record assault cluster, the five-way army that was like a broken bamboo quickly divided the old Maozi army that was blocking in front of it...
When the sky is getting brighter, and the battlefield that has been noisy all night is slowly quieting down. The positions of the Soviet Far Eastern Army, where more than half a million troops had gathered, were directly divided into six. Of course, at this moment, the remaining strength of the Far Eastern Army is less than 450,000 men. As for the heavy equipment in hand, it has been directly reduced from the original 4,500 chariots to 2,500.
At this moment, the number of tanks deployed by the Chinese army on the battlefield alone has exceeded 3,000. It is safe to say that in any other way than troops, Lao Maozi does not have any advantage.
What's more, the current Lao Maozi has been divided into six, which directly means that every Lao Maozi army faced by the Chinese army is less than 100,000 people...
With 200,000 troops to destroy 100,000 Lao Maozi's army, and with air superiority, Liu Hua is confident that he can completely annihilate the Soviet Far East Army in front of him in three days at the latest.
