754 Russian troops shrink the front

The Japanese army is not the opponent of the Huaxia Army in field warfare, so how can such an Russian army be the opponent of the Huaxia Army?

Chiyo Kazuo said very reasonably, but Romanevsky shook his head heavily, "No, if we let the Huaxia army cross the Songhua River without hindrance, then the Huaxia army will comfortably launch an attack on the Jiangfang position, and it will be impossible for us to hold it at that time, so we must take advantage of the small number of Huaxia troops now and defeat it in one go." ”

After speaking, Romanevsky looked at the other staff officers of the command and asked, "What do you think?" ”

The staff officers replied one after another: "We agree with the general. ”

"Okay, order the river defense troops to immediately withdraw from the river defense fortifications, rush to the Huaxia army to build a bridge area, and prevent the Huaxia army from erecting a pontoon bridge."

"Yes!" A high-pitched voice rang out from the headquarters, and Kazuo Chiyo sighed heavily and shook his head helplessly.

The Russian army was immediately mobilized from the river fortifications and went to the area where the Huaxia army built bridges, but what Romanevsky did not expect was that these troop movements were clearly seen by the two Monkey King airships in the sky.

Taking off the Monkey King airship to monitor the battlefield, this is already a conventional method of warfare in the Chinese army, this time and the Russian army fought fiercely on the Songhua River, and the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Front Li Ming ordered two Monkey King airships to fly to the battlefield to monitor every move of the Russian army.

The Monkey King airship reported the news of a large number of Russian troops transferred from the river defense fortifications to Li Mingming, and Li Mingming's eyes lit up on the spot, this was a God-given opportunity to attack the Russian army.

Li Ming immediately ordered the 1st Northeast Division, the 2nd Northeast Division, and the 3rd Northeast Division to launch an attack on the enemy in front of him.

The three divisions have already prepared boats for crossing the river, some of these boats are borrowed from local fishermen, and some are built by cutting down trees themselves, the northeast of this era is vast and sparsely populated, there are dense forests everywhere, and the most important thing is wood, and after Japan was driven out of the northeast, Changbai Mountain fell into the hands of the Chinese army, and Changbai Mountain is full of primeval forests.

Since the Huaxia Army had boats to cross the river, why did it erect pontoon bridges? The reason is very simple, the Huaxia army not only has to cross the Songhua River, but also to recover the northeast territory, and after the recovery is completed, it will need to build a large amount of material supply, and the supply speed of the pontoon bridge is much faster than that of the ship.

For a time, the river showed a spectacular scene of thousands of boats racing, and the Russian artillery hurriedly opened fire, but it was of little use, because it only took about 15 minutes for the Huaxia army to cross the river, and the heavy artillery of the Russian army could only fire two shells in one minute.

The Huaxia Army crossed the Songhua River and attacked the Russian army's river defense fortifications, because the Russian army withdrew from the river defense fortifications, so that the defense was empty, and the Huaxia Army broke through the Russian army's river defense fortifications with almost no effort.

The Huaxia Army broke through the Russian army's river fortifications, and its next move was to immediately move closer to the area where the bridge was built to cross the river and attack the Russian army, which was in chaos for a while.

Romanevsky in the command had a solemn face, and the Huaxia Army really crossed the Songhua River while the Russian army left the river fortifications as Chiyo Kazuo said, so that the entire Russian defense line was at risk of collapse.

Romanevsky did not know how many Huaxia troops broke through the Russian defense line at this time, according to the report of the Russian army on the front, the number of the Huaxia army was about 100,000 (in fact, the Huaxia army that broke through the Russian defense line was only 45,000 people, and the figures reported by the Russian army were seriously inaccurate), if this was the case, the Russian army going to the bridge-building area would have no chance of winning.

In order to block this batch of Huaxia troops, Romanevsky can only invest more river defense troops, but getting more river defense troops to leave the fortifications will lead to more Huaxia troops launching river crossing operations, and at that time, the Russian army will be forced to leave all river defense positions and fight field battles with the Huaxia army.

When Romanevsky was in a hurry, the telephone on the table suddenly rang, this telephone was not ordinary, this telephone line was taken from the core of the Russian army's rule in the northeast -- the city with the surname San, and the telephone from the city with the surname of the three surnames was received from Blagoveshchensk, where the headquarters of the Russian Far Eastern Military District was located, and the telephone from Blagoveshchensk was directly connected to the Russian capital.

In other words, the content transmitted by this telephone line was instructions from the highest level of Russia, that is, the tsar.

This phone will not ring easily, but now that it rings, Romanevsky did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly picked up the phone, which was the voice of Romanevsky's personal secretary, Romanevsky's personal secretary also had the rank of major general, and was Romanevsky's most trusted person.

I only heard the secretary say: "General, His Majesty the Tsar has issued the latest order, asking you to abandon the defense line of the Songhua River, take all the troops, and retreat to the city of Sanxing." ”

Romanevsky exclaimed in surprise: "What did you say? ”

"General, I'm not wrong, His Majesty the Tsar orders you to immediately abandon the defense line of the Songhua River and retreat all your troops to Sanshi City."

"Why would His Majesty the Tsar give such an order?"

"General, it's not clear on the phone, all in all, please obey the order, I'm going to end the call." Romanevsky's personal secretary hung up.

Romanevsky took the microphone and was silent for a long time, because the phone was very quiet, so the staff officers around Romanevsky did not know what was happening, they hurriedly came over and asked: "General, what happened?" ”

Romanevsky put down the microphone heavily and said in a deep voice: "Order all the troops to withdraw from the defense line and retreat to the city of the three surnames." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and everyone asked in shock: "General, why are we retreating?" "General, don't we even want Shulan?"

"Shut up!" Romanevsky snapped, and the command instantly fell silent, "This is an order from His Majesty the Tsar!" ”

"How could His Majesty the Tsar give such an order?" In the dead silence, Kazuo Chiyo stepped forward, his voice low and terrifying.

"I don't know, in short, His Majesty the Tsar must have a reason for giving such an order." Romanevsky explained casually, and immediately then ordered: "Pass the order, all troops, immediately according to Plan C, retreat." ”

Since the battle had just begun at this time, the battle lines of the two sides were very neat, and the Russian army was not in disarray, so Romanevsky's order quickly reached the various units, and the units immediately retreated.

The 300,000 Russian troops retreated like a tide, and the Monkey King airship in the sky completely detected this move, and then reported to Li Mingming, who did not know the real reason for the retreat of the Russian army, so he did not order the Huaxia Army to chase, but ordered the Huaxia Army to erect a pontoon bridge and cross the Songhua River according to the original plan.

The Huaxia Army continued to cross the Songhua River, and at this time, the Russian army had retreated into Shulan, and retreated all the way from Shulan, until the three surnamed cities.

Li understood that the Russian army had no intention of fighting, so he retreated directly, worried that the Russian army was trying to lure the enemy deeper, so he did not order the troops to continue the attack, but stationed in the Shulan area to rest.

Ten days later, Romanevsky led the Russian army back to the city of Sanke, and as soon as Romanevsky returned to the city of Sansurname, he immediately found his personal secretary and asked eagerly: "Why did you let us retreat?" ”

The personal secretary replied: "That's right, Your Excellency General, His Majesty the Tsar asked us to give up the Qing land west of the Three Surname City and stick to the Qing Land east of the Three Surname City. ”

"Why is this happening? This can give up a large area of land to the Huaxia Army. ”

"General, His Majesty the Tsar thinks so, if we still occupy so much land, the battle line will be too long, which is not conducive to the defense of our army, the Huaxia Army is a difficult army to deal with, we should not be greedy in the face of them."

Romanevsky felt that the Tsar's idea was also reasonable, and he didn't say anything more, smiled, and stopped asking about it.

The Russian army ceded all the land west of the city to the Huaxia army, and the Huaxia army certainly had no reason not to laugh at it, so the Huaxia army began to purge the Russian forces and establish the rule of the Huaxia Empire.

In order to occupy the land of the Qing Dynasty for a long time, Russia set up magistrates in various villages, and let these magistrates manage the people of the Qing Dynasty.

Time came to November 15, and the Huaxia army had cleared all the Russian forces in the northeast of the Qing Dynasty, and then directly took the city of Sanxing.

On November 20, 200,000 Chinese troops and 200 plundering artillery chariots arrived at the city of Sanxing, outside the city, which was still the same old fortification, with a trench and a concrete wall, but this time the trench was wider and deeper than the previous one, and the concrete wall was higher and thicker than the previous one.

Despite this, the Huaxia Army was full of confidence, because at this time, the Huaxia Army had been equipped with thirty brand-new bridge-building combat vehicles.

This kind of bridge-building chariot is based on the chassis of the predatory artillery chariot, which is one of the products of the family of predatory artillery chariots, and its biggest advantage is that it can quickly erect a simple bridge up to 15 meters long, which is erected on the trench, and the marauding artillery chariots can easily pass.

When the bridge building chariot is building a bridge, people can stay in the car, do not need to go out, only need to watch the periscope operation, a simple bridge can be erected, the time required is only fifteen minutes, compared with the past, it is simply doubled.

At the beginning, the Huaxia Army used the fire dragon chariot to break through the Japanese army's Jilin defense, and the Japanese army's Jilin defense was similar to the defense of the three surnamed cities, so Li Ming planned to use the same fighting style as before, but what he never expected was that this attack would have an extremely terrifying result.

On November 25, the prepared Huaxia Army began to attack, and the bridge-building chariots as the vanguard approached the Russian trenches.
