Chapter 303: The Battle Is in Progress!

Chapter 303: The battle is in full swing

But after this kind of blasting canister was used in actual combat, Tian Jixiang discovered its power, especially in positional warfare, rolling down the slope, and the lethality was really terrifying! The blasting canister was stuffed with explosives, while the cable blasting device dismantled the grenade's ammunition chamber and used it. The latest chapter of the Templar.

Even some of the attacks were ignored, but when they were helpless, the other party was wrapped up like kraft candy! There are at least a dozen attacks every day, using logs, boats, fishing nets...... It has also become commonplace to block rivers with debris.

When it comes to eating, this unit will be shot cold by them. While sleeping, the unit would fire cold cannons at them, and while marching they would occasionally encounter tangled fishing nets or hand grenades thrown from nowhere, which the reconnaissance battalion had done with grenadiers.

A special grenade with a shortened fuse explodes in mid-air, scarring the entire ship with shrapnel damage. Ozolin looked at the battleships that had been hit with craters and were furious, but helpless.

Ozolin even raised the battle flag in Chinese and told the officers and men of the First Army who were constantly sneaking up on him: If you dare to attack head-on, I will destroy you like your navy!

After this matter reached Tu Qianjun's ears, he saw this tiger sneering coldly!

Ozolin, you old king and eight calves, don't you just rely on equipment to bully others Shen Honglie?! In all fairness, Shen Honglie fought well in the Battle of the Middle Road! Unfortunately, the equipment was too poor, so it was defeated.

Shen Honglie, a native of Tianmen, Hubei. In 1920, he met Zhang Zuolin's henchman Yang Yuting through the relationship of classmates in Japan, and thus won the trust of Zhang Zuolin, and in 1922, he served as the director of the Aviation Police Division of the Security Command of the three eastern provinces, responsible for the preparation of the Northeast Navy.

As the saying goes, "there are nine birds in the sky and Hubei Yankees on the ground", Shen Honglie is indeed a shrewd and capable figure like a nine-headed bird, and it took only five years to make the Northeast Navy from scratch to become China's second largest local navy with more than 20 ships and a total tonnage of more than 18,800.

Although the Fujian Navy under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Nationalist Government was stronger than the Northeast Navy in terms of the number of ships and tonnage, it gave the Northeast Navy, which was good at raiding and harassing, an advantage during the Second Northern Expedition, which also made Shen Honglie win the title of "capable general". The Second Brigade and the Ninth Brigade of the Northeast Army are also distributed in Fuyuan, Tongjiang, Suidong, Fujin, Huachuan, and Yilan.

As for the air force, two fighter planes and two reconnaissance planes are stationed in Tongjiang.

However, when the opponent's Amur River fleet launched an attack, it sent shallow heavy gunboats including "Sverdlov", "Sun Yat-sen", and "Red East", gunboats "Red Banner" and "Proletarian" and four armed steamers, 2 infantry regiments, 1 artillery regiment, 1 flying group, 1 communications company and 1 engineer company to advance along the Songhua River!

The Soviet Navy was exceptionally well prepared, and after the start of the war, they effectively distributed firepower according to the combat strength of the Chinese ship, and its officers and men were well-trained and their morale was also very high, so the first salvo of the "Sverdlov" hit the Chinese flagship "Lijie", and the second salvo hit the gun position of the "Lisui", and the four gunners, Sergeant Chen Daixiang and the soldiers of the division were blown away, and there were no corpses.

At that time, 18 Soviet fighters flew in in volleys, divided into arrays, one group flew to Fujin and one group flew to Suibin, respectively to bomb, and three planes hovered over the Sanjiangkou to drop bombs to assist the Soviet fleet in combat.

In the Battle of Tongjiang, according to Shen Honglie's report, the Northeast Navy suffered more than 500 casualties, 4 warships were sunk and 1 was seriously damaged, and the gunboat "Haijun" was captured by the Soviet army and renamed "Pobieda".

Judging from his heart, Shen Honglie's hasty deployment of defense at the mouth of the Sanjiang River was already commendable, and the large-depth and multi-level fortification, with the dense concentration of mines and barrage cables, is already commendable, and the fighting will of the officers and men of the Chinese Navy is understandable.

However, the difference in the strength of the two navies was too great, and the Soviets were able to almost completely annihilate the five medium-leading ships stationed in Tongjiang under the premise that their own losses were not large or even none of their own warships were sunk.

In the final analysis, if it weren't for the firepower of the Amur River District Fleet far surpassing Shen Honglie, then this "capable general" might not have been defeated so miserably! And this defeat, as the commander-in-chief, Zhang Xueliang has an unshirkable responsibility!

In fact, in view of the tense Sino-Soviet relations year by year, Shen Honglie had long suggested that permanent fortress batteries should be built in Sanjiangkou and Fuyuan, and heavy artillery, anti-aircraft guns, searchlights, and long-wave radios should be placed to cooperate with the minefield to form a strict protection of the estuary! They can't be allowed to enter the territory of Harbin! At the very least, to hold them down before I trap the Army! ”

Hearing Tu Qianjun's words, Shang Dinan couldn't help but be stunned! Of course, he knew about the recent losses of the reconnaissance battalion, which had been receiving telegrams, and in order to block the advance of the fleet in the Amur region, the reconnaissance battalion of the Lin Leopard had already suffered more than half of the casualties!

You must know that the soldiers who can enter the reconnaissance battalion are the elite of the elite of the First Army! Not to mention that each of them is a veteran of the battle, and almost all of them have their own unique skills!

Many people have fought their way out of the encirclement in previous bloody battles and made many achievements! However, such a team suffered more than half of the casualties in this delay, and Tu Qianjun not only did not intend to let them retreat, but also let them continue to drag on......

Chandinand couldn't help but be silent, but he also knew that this was a helpless move! If the Amur River District fleet rushed to the outside of Harbin, then wait for the officers and men of the First Army to flank the front and back, so that the whole army will be annihilated!

The Soviets are not fools, and if they are directly let in and encircle, they will inevitably have doubts. But if it comes in hard, they won't have too many doubts. And if it weren't for heavy casualties, they wouldn't have moved the units guarding the artillery to attack the front.

After all, Rokossovsky's life and death are unknown, and they will always be given some warning! It is much more cautious in mobilizing troops and fighting, and is not as vulnerable to sneak attacks as Rokossovsky.

"Sha~Sha~Sha^" After Shang Dinan recorded Tu Qianjun's order, he said to Tu Qianjun, "Smack!" He gave a military salute, and then went down to deliver the order.

On the position of the Third Division, Tian Jixiang in the anti-artillery hole pinched the order sent by Tu Qianjun, and when he heard the sound of the aircraft circling "Buzz~Buzz~Huzz......" above his head, his face became extremely ugly!

"Squeak~squeak~squeak...... Rumble! Rumble!! Boom ......" more than a dozen planes screamed and dropped bombs, blowing up the positions of the three divisions into a cloud of dust! And Tian Jixiang secretly said in his heart: I really asked the army commander to give the material! This old man really gave the plane......
