Chapter 52: The Great Battle between China and Russia (I)

Jiang Fangzhen didn't feel anything after receiving the matter of Xiao Gaopo, the battlefield is changing, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and there is nothing to be surprised about Xiao Gaopo's affairs. Xiao Gaopo is basically a recruit, and he is very satisfied that he has not been served by a nest, and this matter is good for the armies to reflect on, it is not a good thing to be too proud, and it is even more difficult to underestimate the enemy.

In fact, Jiang Fangzhen has long wanted to make some deliberate failures to confuse the Tsarist Russian army and other countries, and it is not a good thing for the Chinese army to be too sharp, you must know that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and now China does not have any capital to resist the blockade of various countries, and China has to rely more on various countries to develop itself.

In any case, Chiang Fangzhen had to do his best to gain a complete advantage in the battle with Tsarist Russia, and Japan could not wait to do so, although for very lame reasons. The struggle between Huaxia and Japan for the territory of Tsarist Russia in the Far East has begun, and Huaxia wants to withdraw from Outer Mongolia to support Han Ming and them, which may soon become another battlefield.

The Tsar, who was far away in Europe, was so excited that he couldn't sleep after knowing that Irrey's attack had successfully achieved results, and praised Irry and the others fiercely, promising them that as long as they defeated the army of the Chinese Empire, they would be knighted and enjoy the supreme glory of the empire.

Airray and the others have been studying how to attack next time, knight, the glory of a soldier's life is nothing more than this, even if it is just a small baron, it is also a nobleman, they have seen the scene of returning to their hometown with glory and being admired by thousands of people.

Grand Duke Nikolai was very disdainful of this knighthood, and wanted to be knighted, so it would be good if their pig's head could go back alive. The success of a sneak attack has already strengthened people's defenses, and it is estimated that there will be no return if they go to a sneak attack, and the Chinese army is not to be twisted by others.

Airry and others deliberately spread the news that the tsar promised them to be knighted after the victory, and within a few days all the Tsarist troops knew the news, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they all fantasized that they would be able to be knighted after the victory, and a large number of officers asked to attack.

This was also a headache for Grand Duke Nikolai, who did not think that another attack would lead to victory, but more than half of the officers demanded a sortie, and even his henchmen turned around from time to time to ask for a strike, so that they could also earn military merit.

In order not to let himself be overthrown, Grand Duke Nicholas had to allow them to attack again, but the army for them was not much, only 50,000, and as for the cavalry, he also pretended to send 10,000 inside, he did not have any chance of winning this sortie, and prayed in his heart that they would not be defeated so badly.

Airry and the others only played a role in promoting this attack, he shrewdly did not lead the troops to attack, but generously gave up to other officers who wanted to attack and earn military merits, and he also gained a good reputation, and the people below admired him more and more.

The result of this sortie was a small success, and the Chinese army retreated after leaving behind thousands of "corpses", and then returned with reinforcements before the Russian army withdrew.

The news of the success of the Tsarist army again made those newly arrived officers even more excited, the Chinese army really has nothing to do, they can also get military merits, and they also have the opportunity to be knighted.

Unlike the excitement of these officers was Grand Duke Nicholas, who did not know what conspiracy the Chinese army was engaged in, or was it a coincidence that this sortie was effective? Did the Chinese army confuse them and let them underestimate the enemy? How did the Chinese army not attack peacefully?

He couldn't figure out what the Huaxia army thought, maybe it was really because he thought too highly of the Huaxia army, after all, he had always been defensive before, and there was almost no offense, was he wrong?

In any case, he still knows the current situation, the chances of victory in Tsarist Russia are not great, but entering a protracted war is not what the Tsarist Empire wants, even if it is the Chinese Empire that falls first, it is not what he wants.

Just when Grand Duke Nicholas was thinking about it, Jiang Fangzhen and the others had already determined the time for the attack, this time the attack was a full-scale attack, all armies attacked at the same time, and those weak minefields had been found, even if they couldn't find them, they had to fill them with flesh and blood, and they couldn't afford to drag it out.

The time has entered the middle of September, the weather in the north began to cool, at this time the climate does not have the so-called greenhouse effect in later generations, and there is no such thing as global warming, and the weather is still more natural than in later generations.

Autumn will soon begin, autumn is no different from the early winter in the south like the outer Mongolian side, the colder the weather is more unfavorable for the Chinese army, they must completely lay the foundation for victory before late autumn, even if it enters the confrontation period.

"The logistics are ready!"

"Ammunition ready!"

…… After all kinds of preparations were completed, more than 400,000 Chinese troops launched an attack, and the spectators from all countries looked at the majestic Chinese army with very solemn faces, the climate of the Chinese Empire has been completed, and it is necessary to wear small shoes for Huaxia, the speed of China's rise is too fast, which makes people frightened.

"Report Grand Duke, Hua ...... The Chinese army is ...... The whole army is out to attack our army, and it's almost there! A soldier ran into Nikolai's camp in a panic, and at this time, Nikolai was discussing something with Irry and other officers, and a map was drawn by them with a pen like a big cat.

"What, the whole army is on a move? Quick, get the soldiers ready, the big war is coming! Damn, what are you still talking about, aren't you fighting to attack, now that people are hitting the door, why don't you get ready quickly. Grand Duke Nikolai threw away the pen in his hand and said in disbelief, seeing that Ari and the others were stunned in place, and scolded them fiercely.

The officers on the side hurriedly ran out to prepare, and Grand Duke Nikolai once again grabbed a logistics officer and ordered, "You hurry up and run to protect the supplies, and the logistics team that is about to arrive will stop outside, don't continue to come here, let them take shelter for a while." ”

The logistics of the second batch of reinforcements were originally scheduled to arrive today, but now that the Chinese army is attacking, Grand Duke Nikolai is worried that these supplies will be targeted by the Chinese army before they have time to be transported, so they have to ask them not to enter here first, and wait until they survive this attack.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The artillery of the Chinese army began to exert its might when they entered the firing range without saying a word, and the airship troops also flew towards the positions of the Tsarist Russia, and they were also waiting for the Russian airships, although they disdained those airships that were smaller than them, but they had to be booby-trapped first, and it would be a disaster to keep them.

The infantry and cavalry of the Chinese attacked at the front, because the tank units in the minefield could only follow slowly behind, and the motorcycle troops did not dare to rush to the front.

When the soldiers were about to reach the minefield, the artillery and tanks behind began to bombard the weak points of the minefield, only to see those shells lining up in an orderly line with the long Arabic numeral "1" falling one after another.

After landing, the rumbling sound was incessant, and the fire that bloomed like an epiphany near the explosion of the shell told that there were many mines hidden there. The explosion continued, the shelling did not stop, the smoke and dust from the explosion filled everywhere, and after a few minutes the artillery stopped shelling here and moved on to the next place.

The Chinese infantry no longer frantically rushed into the place where it was still full of smoke and dust, and three hundred meters after the minefield was the trenches of Tsarist Russia, which was the target of their attack.

From time to time, the remaining mines in the passage erupted into flames that devoured the lives of the Chinese soldiers, but the soldiers behind did not flinch because of this, and the tanks behind also rushed into the passage, even if they crushed the remnants of the dead comrades, they would not stay at all, this is the battlefield!

The second batch of reinforcements who came obviously didn't see this kind of thing, they were stunned and at a loss, they didn't know what the Chinese army was bombing there, and the veteran next to them directly woke them up: "Fight, hit the place that was bombed just now, there is the passage for the Chinese army to attack!" ”

The Russian soldiers who came to their senses beckoned there with their guns, and the bullets flew like a rain towards the safe passage of the Chinese army, and a large number of heavy machine guns began to gather in the trenches here.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

As soon as the tank entered the passage, it formed a semi-arc of the muzzle of the gun in twos and threes, and the soldiers on the Tsarist Russian trenches in front were blown to pieces, and the Chinese soldiers who walked in the front of the passage rushed forward easily and quickly, and the Tsarist soldiers in the trenches were even more pressed to the point that they could not raise their heads.

The Russian heavy machine guns that were preparing to block the passage lost a lot under the bombardment of the tanks, and even the machine gunners were killed a lot.

Under the onslaught of cavalry and tanks, the Russian soldiers in the trenches could not resist at all, and either fled to both sides of the trenches or retreated.

Such a scene was played out in many places in the first trenches of this Tsarist Russia, and the Chinese army had been watching them lay mines, even at night, so they knew a lot of weak points, and did not have to go far around this minefield for an unknown length to attack.

The Russian army also wanted to attack the Chinese artillery in order to prevent them from blasting out of the safe passage, but soon they found that their range could not reach the location of the Chinese artillery and had to give up. But they also found out about the passage and wanted to bombard the Chinese soldiers and tanks in the passage, but there were too many passages, and they could only concentrate their firepower to bombard one or two, and as soon as they bombarded the passage, the Chinese army was suppressed by the artillery of the Chinese army, and the range was not far away, so they could only be beaten passively.

The first trench of Tsarist Russia was quickly occupied, and most of the Tsarist soldiers in the first trench also withdrew to the second trench, and the concentrated attack of hundreds of thousands of troops in China was really terrifying, which scared Ari and others.

The fall of the first trench was expected by Grand Duke Nicholas, and it was only a matter of time before it fell, because his mines were already insufficient and the places to be laid out were limited, and he was worried that the Chinese offensive was too fast, and they would not be able to use the mines that arrived later to set up minefields.

Jiang Fangzhen was not happy when he saw that the first trench had been occupied, because he knew that the madman Nicholas had built several trenches, and fortunately he had a backhand.
