"Damn, what the hell is going on? Two lines of defense were lost in half a day, and those guys should be captured and shot! After Marshal Gurko received the relevant news, he was so angry that he scolded. Although he is seventy-one years old, he is still not small. After receiving the defeat, he was immediately angry. Although he knew that the Russian army was not the opponent of the squadron, he did not expect it to be so vulnerable.

"Your Excellency, this is not the time to be angry! The Chinese have broken through the first two lines of defense and are now attacking the third. Their attacks were so fierce that the commander of the front, Admiral Matvey, telegraphed that he would not be able to hold out until sunset without reinforcements! Colonel Levslovich said.

"Hell! Let the troops in the rear, all rush to the front and reinforce Admiral Matvey. Sue him and must resist the attacks of the Chinese for at least three days. Otherwise, I will personally send him to a court-martial, or I will send him directly to the gallows! Marshal Gurko said angrily.

"Yes, Your Excellency Marshal!" Colonel Levslovich sensed the anger of Marshal Gurko, and the hint of murder in his words. Clearly, if Admiral Matvey is not up to the task, he may actually do.

The battle on the front line is still very fierce. After taking the second line of defense, although the squadron suspended the attack, the soldiers began to eat lunch and replenish their bodies. The wounded were also sent to the rear for treatment. Those prisoners of the Russian army. They were all sent to the prisoner of war camp in the rear to be guarded. But. The artillery continued to fire. After the infantry took the second line of defense, the artillery also advanced two kilometers as a whole, and then launched an attack on the third and final line of defense of the Russian army.

The fierce artillery fire raged on the positions of the Russian army, and soldiers were constantly killed, and the stumps and broken arms flew directly into the sky. In such a situation, the Russian army had to hold on. The power of the god of war is vividly exerted at this moment.

After receiving the order of Marshal Gurko, the commander of the Russian front, General Matvey, his face suddenly turned pale. The first two lines of defense were broken through in half a day, and in the end, although there were more than 100,000 Russian troops concentrated, it was simply impossible for these Russian troops, who had already been frightened, to let them resist the squadron.

However, Admiral Matvey was well aware that Marshal Gurko's order was inviolable. If he dares to disobey, I'm afraid no one will be able to save him. There is no need for a trial by a military court. He'll be sent straight to the gallows. There was no way, Admiral Matvey had to bite the bullet and ordered the troops on the front line to try their best to resist the attack of the squadron no matter what, and try their best to hold out for three days.

It's just that, no matter how you look at it, it's an impossible task. At 1 p.m. on August 18, the squadron, which had eaten dry food and replenished its body, began to attack the third line of defense of the Russian army. In the previous shelling, the third line of defense of the Russian army was almost destroyed by the fierce shelling of the squadron, and all kinds of fortifications were blown up in pieces. The casualties were also relatively heavy. Despite the fact that Marshal Gurko ordered the hundreds of thousands of troops in the rear to reinforce the third line of defense, the guys dragged their feet. Admiral Matvey really thinks that maybe the guys won't come until the line is breached. It's just that it was still useful at that time?

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Da-da-da-da! "On the battlefield, the crisp sound of the rifle like fried beans and the deep sound of the heavy machine gun are mixed together, and on both sides of the attack and defense, soldiers are constantly being hit and then losing their lives, and almost every moment, soldiers are killed. On the battlefield, life seems so fragile.

"One squad, two squads charge, three squads cover. Heavy machine guns and mortars to suppress enemy fire points! "A second lieutenant of the squadron was platooned, lying less than three hundred meters away from the third line of defense of the Russian army, and ordered. His platoon, a total of fifty men, lost six men in the attack on the two front lines. At the time of the attack on the third line of defense of the Russian army, five people had already been lost, but now they were suppressed at a distance of three hundred meters from the positions of the Russian army and could not break through.

After the remnants of the first and second lines of defense of the Russian army all retreated to the third line of defense, the strength of the guards of this line increased a lot, which made it much more difficult for the squadron to attack. The artillery shelling has continued to extend backwards, and the key targets have become those Russian troops who are reinforcing the front line. Therefore, the Russian army on the third line of defense is facing much less pressure.

"Da Da Da!" The design of the heavy machine gun immediately began, and rows of bullets fired at the positions of the Russian army, in an attempt to suppress the fire of the Russian army. But the Russian army also notes

Realizing this, they fired fiercely at the heavy machine guns that were firing. Dense bullets hit the shields on either side of the heavy machine gun with a crisp clanging sound.

"Poof!" A bullet hit the heavy machine gunner in the chest, blood gushed out, and the heavy machine gunner fell limp. The secondary shooter immediately removed the body of the heavy machine gunner and substituted it, and the heavy machine gun continued to pour fire on the Russian positions.

"Boom!" Mortars were also erected, and they bombarded the positions of the Russian army. The shell exploded in the trenches of the Russian army, and shrapnel swept through the entire trench, harvesting the lives of all the Russian soldiers inside.

The soldiers of the two squads took the opportunity to launch a charge against the positions of the Russian army, and at a distance of three hundred meters, they rushed in more than a minute.

"Grenades!" With a loud roar, more than a dozen grenades flew into the trenches of the Russian army, once again inflicting heavy losses on the Russian army. At this time, the Chinese soldiers also broke into the trenches and began to fight with the Russian soldiers.

"Bang bang bang!" A sergeant squad leader pulled out the pistol pinned to his waist, shot several Russian soldiers in succession, killed all the Russian soldiers, and then took his brothers and began to clean up the Russian troops in the trenches. In the trenches, the role of a pistol is very pronounced and much more effective than a rifle. In addition, the Weapons Research Institute is also conducting research on new types of pistols and weapons specially used to attack trenches. Such as shotguns, flamethrowers, and so on. At that time, the squadron's ability to attack enemy trenches will be greatly enhanced.

Although, the Russian army's defense was very tenacious, so that the attacking squadron paid a lot of casualties. But after holding out for several hours, the third line of defense of the Russian army was still broken through in many places. This directly led to the collapse of the Russian defense line. Although Admiral Matvey made great efforts to put all his reserves into the battle for position, he was unable to reverse the decline.

By six o'clock in the afternoon, the Russian army had to retreat from the defensive line, which was defended by 300,000 men, and by the end of the retreat was less than 100,000. The number of Russian troops killed and captured by the squadron reached 200,000. When the Russian army retreated, it had to once again pass through the barrage formed by the shelling of Chinese artillery, during which the Russian army suffered heavy losses. Even by the time Admiral Matvey retreated, reinforcements had not yet arrived.

After taking the defense line of the Russian army, the squadron did not continue to attack, and in today's battle, the squadron's losses were not small, paying tens of thousands of casualties. The number of killed and seriously wounded soldiers amounted to more than 5,000. In addition, after a day of high-intensity fighting, the soldiers were also very tired, physically and mentally, and unable to continue fighting. Especially the artillery, during this day, the artillery was shelling the Russian defense line, and after waiting for the battle to end, many artillery could not even raise their hands.

The fall of the Russian frontline of defense made Malianovka directly exposed to the front of the squadron. Marshal Gurko immediately ordered all the troops to return to Malianovka and prepare here to resist the attack of the squadron. Although the losses of the Russian army are very large, the remaining troops, with nearly half a million people, are still a very strong combat force. If you grasp it well, you should be able to resist the attack of the ** team. Of course, Marshal Gurko wanted to delay until the end of the peace talks between China and Russia, in which case he was done.

The army in the hands of Marshal Gurko is already the last force that the Russian army can mobilize. If these armies are annihilated again, the Russian army will no longer be able to resist the attack of the squadron. Therefore, for the sake of Russia, Marshal Gurko had to be like a nail, firmly nailed to Malianovka, blocking the squadron in Siberia.

It's just that the desire is very full, but the reality is very backbone.

On the evening of 18 August, Marshal Gurko received a telegram and turned pale on the spot.

"Your Excellency, Boyevoy fell, and the 100,000 cavalry of the Chinese suddenly appeared in Boyevoy and launched a fierce attack there. We only have more than 20,000 people in Boyavoy, and we simply cannot withstand the attacks of the Chinese! Colonel Levslovich said with a look of horror. The Chinese cavalry actually raided hundreds of kilometers in one day and directly captured Boyevoi, which cut off the rear of the Russian army. More importantly, Boyavoy is an important material reserve base for the Russian army, and half of the strategic materials of the entire Siberian battlefield are stored there. The fall of Boyavoy made the situation of the Russian army in Malianovka very bad all of a sudden. Not only was the back road cut off, but the supplies couldn't last long.

"How much time can we hold on to our current supplies?" Marshal Gurko asked with a pale face.

"Your Excellency, with only the supplies we have stored in Malianovka, it is only enough for us to hold out for half a month!" Colonel Levslovich replied.
