Orsk is the only major city in the eastern foothills of the Ural Mountains, and has been a major Russian military city since Central Asia was annexed by China. The only important city on the Trans-Siberian Railway has become an important stronghold for the European part of Russia and Siberia. Although the Russian army nominally has more than two million troops in Siberia, 400,000 of them are deployed in Orenburg and Urals in the European part! If Orsk can be captured, it will be able to cut off the more than 1.7 million troops of the Russian army on the Siberian Plain from Europe in the rear in one fell swoop, and give the squadron an important opportunity to completely annihilate the Russian army! Therefore, under the orders of Marshal Cai Yun, it was the 11th Army of the Chinese Army that attacked Orsk!

Although the 11th Group Army of the Chinese Army is the latest group army to be established, its predecessor was the army unit directly under the Chinese General Staff, and most of the infantry divisions under it are also jīng sharp troops! Moreover, compared with other armies with only 6 infantry divisions, the 11th Army had 8 armies, with nearly 40,000 more troops than other armies. Marshal Cai Yun handed over the task of attacking Orsk to the 11th Army, so that the 11th Army could completely block this place and cut off the Russian army's connection with Europe! Therefore, after the capture of Orsk by the 11th Army, it is likely to be attacked by Russian troops from Europe, and the task is also very difficult!

At 7 o'clock in the morning on April 30, after the order for the attack of Marshal Cai Yun was issued, the artillery of the 11th Army and ten additional infantry divisions. Thousands of heavy guns of 105 mm caliber or more were assembled. A fierce attack was launched against the Russian army entrenched in Orsk!

The shelling of thousands of heavy guns. The power is amazing. The positions of the Russian army are completely covered with shells! The commander of the 11th Army, General Zhou Shun, was very satisfied with the heavy fire of the Chinese artillery. The artillery construction of the Chinese Army has made the firepower of the Chinese Army the top in the world, and even the Russian army, which cannot meet the needs of all the troops, is naturally unable to compare with the Chinese Army!

The commander of the Russian army guarding Orsk was Lieutenant General Yakov, and he had a total of 4 corps under his command, namely the 15th Army and the 16th Army. The 17th and 18th armies, a total of 200,000 people! Lieutenant General Yakov, now 50 years old, took part in the war against Austria-Hungary last year, when they annihilated hundreds of thousands of Austrian troops and nearly invaded Austria-Hungary territory. Unfortunately, the participation of the German army allowed Austria-Hungary to recover its decline and caused the Russian army to suffer heavy losses! After China revealed its ambitions to attack Russia, he was promoted from major general to general, serving as commander of the Russian army group Orsk. Take charge of guarding this important town!

Lieutenant General Yakov knew that the attack power of the squadron was very strong, and if he sent troops to fight outside the city. It is estimated that it can only be lost in vain! Therefore, he set up the main defensive line inside the city. After several years of construction, Augusto has become a completely militarized fortress, but it is indeed a large-caliber fortress gun, otherwise it would live up to its name! However, even so, Lieutenant General Yakov believes that it will be very difficult for the Chinese Army to capture Orsk! The Russian troops deployed in the fortifications in the city will definitely make the city a grave for the Chinese! Even if the squadron has world-famous armored units, it is the same!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Dense shells exploded in the city of Orsk, and houses were destroyed, but the hundreds of thousands of Russian residents living here had already retreated before the war began, otherwise those civilians would have suffered severe losses! Those yellow-skinned demons will never care about the lives of civilians, and the Russians knew this very well more than ten years ago! Therefore, despite the reluctance, after the Russian army issued a jǐng proclamation that the war was coming, those Russians left here in tears and hid in the countryside! They only hope that the Chinese shells will not destroy their houses. However, this seems unlikely! Under the heavy bombardment of Chinese artillery, the whole city seemed to be in danger of being reduced to ruins!

"Hit! Beat! Look how many shells you can have! "Lieutenant General Yakov hid in the headquarters, built ten meters underground, and listened to the sound of shells fired by Chinese artillery exploding inside the city. He didn't care about it at all! After years of construction, the Russian army has already built Orsk as solid, most of the people are hiding underground, although the Chinese shelling is fierce, but to inflict fatal damage on these Russian troops, it is still somewhat unlikely!

Half an hour after the heavy shelling, the fighters of the 3rd Air Force Wing, which was responsible for supporting the 11th Army, had already flown over Orsk! At an altitude of 2,000 meters, 40 H5 'Hongyan' fighters opened the bomb compartments in the belly of the plane, and 20 aerial bombs weighing 50 kilograms fell, accompanied by the whistling sound produced when the bombs fell. Soon, the ground became a sea of fire, and a bomb dropped by an H5 'Hongyan' fighter jet could almost reduce a small block to rubble!

"Da Da Da!" The Russian army's high shè machine guns began to return fire, and the crimson tracer bullets shè towards the sky, which could be seen clearly even in broad daylight. It's just that these high-level machine guns pose almost no threat to the H5 'Hongyan' fighters hovering at an altitude of two thousand meters to drop bombs! The counterattack of the Russian air defense forces caused a counterattack by the F5 "Haidongqing" fighters and FH5 "Falcon" dive bombers of the Chinese Air Force! In particular, the FH5 "Falcon" dive bomber, every dive is almost accompanied by a howl from hell, an aerial bomb weighing 500 kilograms was dropped, and the buildings within a radius of dozens of meters were destroyed at night, and the Russian air defense positions were destroyed in the bombing! The Chinese Air Force and artillery cooperated to launch a blow to Orsk, which was held by the Russian army!

At 8 a.m., after an hour of shelling and bombardment, Orsk was in shambles, with large neighborhoods in ruins and houses still burning and billowing smoke. It's just that the heavy shelling and bombardment have caused many casualties to the Russian army, I don't know at all! However, the squadron believes that if the Russian army can survive such a fierce shelling and bombardment, then they are really cockroaches!

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Admiral Zhou Shun gave the order to attack, and the 11th Armored Brigade of the 11th Army took the lead and launched an attack on Orsk! The 11th and 15th Divisions of the 16th Army followed closely behind the 11th Panzer Brigade, preparing to storm the city of Orsk after the Panzer Brigade broke through the Russian defenses! In addition, the mercenaries also sent three divisions to participate in this attack! Because of the importance of capturing Orsk, Marshal Cai Yun specially assigned twenty divisions of mercenaries to the 11th Army, hoping to take Orsk with minimal losses with the help of these fierce rì himself! Anyway, Rì himself will not feel distressed if he dies, and these Rì himself happens to be the best candidates for cannon fodder!

"Boom!" The sound of motors of more than two hundred tanks and armored vehicles converged as if it were thunder! Let the Russian soldiers smell the change!

Lieutenant General Yakov did not deploy much troops outside Orsk, just an infantry division on the outskirts of the city! Under the attack of the 11th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army, this infantry division of the Russian army was almost immediately defeated, and it retreated into the city in less than half an hour!

"General, the Russians have all retreated to the city, it seems that they are preparing to fight us in the streets!" Lieutenant General Jiang Qiao, commander of the 11th Army, said with some concern!

"Humph! Fighting in the streets, the Russians are still not our opponents! Order the armored brigade to attack westward, first cut off the railway line, the 6th and 35th divisions will attack the city of Orsk, destroy the Russian army in the city, and in addition, let Rì himself send three more divisions in! Admiral Zhou Shun said without changing his face! Having an armored brigade and two infantry divisions and three mercenary divisions stationed in the west of Orsk can cut off the Trans-Siberian Railway, and it can also prevent the Russian army from fleeing westward and the Russian army in the west from reinforcing the Siberian Plain! The commander of the Russian army, Lieutenant General Yakov, shrank all his forces into the city, which certainly made it more difficult for the squadron to capture Orsk, but it also allowed the squadron to cut off the connection between the Russian army and the west almost effortlessly!

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the 11th Armored Brigade of the Chinese Army and two infantry divisions and three Rìben mercenary divisions built fortifications ten kilometers west of Orsk, cutting off the Trans-Siberian Railway. At the same time, two infantry divisions and three mercenary divisions of the 11th Army also entered the city of Orsk and began to fight fiercely with the Russian troops in the city, seizing control of the city!

The commander of the Russian army, Lieutenant General Yakov, seemed to realize his mistake only after learning that the squadron was stationed in the west of Orsk! However, at this time, he can't care so much, the squadron has launched a fierce attack on the city of Orsk, if it can't withstand the attack of the squadron, Orsk will be occupied by the squadron, and what will happen to the Russian army guarding here, then it can be imagined!

When Grand Duke Nikolai, the commander of the Russian army in Yekaterinburg, learned about the battle that took place in Orsk, he was even more furious and scolded Yakov for being a fool! The Trans-Siberian Railway was cut off by the Chinese, then if the millions of Russian troops on the Siberian Plain want to retreat, I am afraid that the only way to do this is to cross the Ural Mountains, if the war does not go well, this is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Russian army! Grand Duke Nikolai hurriedly ordered the Russian troops in Orenburg and the Urals to attack to the east, ready to break the blockade of the squadron! )
