"Fire! Hurry up! Hold off their infantry! ”

"Call for artillery support! Hell, what are our artillery doing? ”

"There is no way, the phone can't get through, there is no way to tell the artillery the coordinates ......"

At this moment, the entire front of the Soviet army was in chaos to an indescribable extent, the million-strong army under the command of Frunze and Baranov were all fighting separately, and the troops on the front line and the artillery in the rear could not communicate at all, so there was no way to get timely and accurate artillery support, and the number of artillery deployed on the front line was not large, and the caliber was not large, mainly used to deal with tanks, but it could not gnaw at the Chinese Cheetah tank destroyer 2,000 meters away, deployed in Losino-- The 330 T-28/1936 tanks on the Petrovsky to Elekt line also seemed to be herding sheep, some shrunk behind and did not move, and some bravely rushed to the edge of their own anti-tank trenches, and used their 57mm guns to bombard the Chinese Cheetah-style tank annihilation, and were soon beaten into piles of smoking scrap metal!

However, the attack on the side of the Chinese army was as orderly as in a textbook, and when the anti-tank trenches and self-propelled artillery bombarded the front line of the Soviet army, the Chinese infantry and combat engineers attacking in armored personnel carriers got off their armored vehicles one after another, and rushed to the anti-tank trench in front, preparing to use explosives to blow up the inner wall of the anti-tank trench to form a gentle slope that could attack the tanks -- this was originally a work of death, and the anti-tank trench was the barrier of the Soviet army's forward position, and they would definitely concentrate all their firepower on the Chinese infantry and engineers who wanted to destroy it. However, at present, the front line of the Soviet army cannot contact their artillery positions at all, and the artillery and tanks they have placed on the front line are busy bombarding the more than 1,000 tanks and assault artillery of the Chinese army. There was simply no free hand to pull and suppress the Chinese infantry that was constantly pouring into the anti-tank trenches. Even if you fight not to fight the Chinese tanks, how powerful can those 45mm or 57mm anti-tank guns be against the infantry?

As for their 76.2mm anti-tank gun, it can be used as a field gun. However, this kind of anti-tank gun, which is placed in a well-camouflaged artillery bunker, is the biggest trump card in the hands of the Soviet infantry on the front line from Losino-Petrovsky to Erekt, and there are not many cards in total, so they are not willing to open fire at the most critical time to expose the target, how can they be used to bombard the infantry? This kind of artillery is not like a 45mm anti-tank gun that can quickly move positions, as long as the target is exposed, Zhun Bao will be dumbfounded by the heavy artillery of the Chinese army!

Outcome. In the face of the surging Chinese infantry, the only weapons that the Soviets could use to fight back were rifles, machine guns, and mortars.

"Call the pursuers, suppress the machine gun position of Lao Maozi!

"Mortars. Counterattack! ”

"Commando, follow me!"

There was a problem with the coordination of the fire of the Soviet artillery infantry here, and the Chinese infantry, who had just rushed to the edge of the anti-tank trench, opened up their battle lines, their machine guns, mortars, and recoilless guns. All kinds of ammunition were greeted by the Soviets as if they were not paying for it. They also used the radio to call the anti-tank destroyers in their rear to request fire support. Suddenly, the forward positions of the Soviet army were enveloped in all kinds of bullets and fireballs.

"Distance xxx, azimuth xxx, civil fortifications, armor-piercing projectile No. 1, fire!"

Since the artillery group in the rear of the Soviet army did not know what was being bombarded, not a single high-explosive grenade fell around the Chinese army's Tan Annihilation horizontal formation anyway. So the commander of the 590 Stalker tank destroyer simply opened the roof and poked half of his body out. Holding an optical rangefinder in his hand, he acted as an artillery observer. After he exploded a series of counts, the 48-caliber 75mm cannon immediately erupted into a ball of fire. At the same time as the hull of the car shook, the targeted Soviet firepower point suddenly exploded like brilliant fireworks.

Although the distance is more than 1700 meters, the power of the 75mm armor-piercing projectile is not something that a civil fortification made of sandbags, mud and wood can withstand, even the T-28/1935 of the Soviets can withstand the 75mm cannon of the pursuer at this distance. Although the front armor of this latest model of the T-28 is very strong, the Soviet weapons on the battlefield have always been inferior to the number jù on paper. So even if you use the Stalker against the T-28/1935, there is no big problem, but there are still so many Cheetah tank destroyers on the battlefield today, where is the turn to get the little man of the Stalker?

"4 degrees to the left, 1800 distance, civil fortifications, armor-piercing shells......" After another series of orders from the commander, the pursuer's cannon again spat out an armor-piercing shell.

Another Soviet point of fire turned into a pile of rubble with a roar.

……

"Comrade Commander, Comrade Commander!" A staff officer rushed into the command post of the former enemy of the Baranov cluster in the city of Losino-Petrovsky with an anxious face, and while panting, he reported loudly: "Comrade commander, General Vasilevsky has sent someone to inform them that they have already fought with the Chinese armored cluster!" ”

The expression on Baranov's face was slightly relaxed, and it seemed that everything was planned - except that the communication of the troops was very problematic. Lieutenant General Konev, the chief of staff of the cluster next to him, slapped his hands sharply: "Great! It's our turn! He looked at Baranov: "Comrade commander, give the order!" ”

"Good!" Baranov was waiting for this moment. "Tank cluster, sortie! Target Chinese armored cluster horizontal flank! Tell you, comrades, now is the battle of honor for our Soviet tank troops, and Comrade Trotsky and the future proletariat are watching us! ”

"Yes!"

The dozens of commanders of the tank brigades gathered in the war room of the command post roared at the same time, and after solemnly saluting General Baranov, they rushed out of the command post one after another and ran to the hidden places of their respective tank brigades. Baranov and Konev looked at each other, took the military caps on the map table and put them on their heads, and walked outside one after the other, they would also command the battle on the front line, and like Marshal Tukhachevsky, they were ready to succeed if they did not succeed.

"For the sake of the Soviets, rush!"

"For the Motherland! Ulla! Ulla! ”

On the plains around Losino-Petrovsky, the sound of crazy Ula suddenly resounded in the sky. In order to cooperate with the assault of the tank cluster, in order to establish a defensive line in time after breaking through the positions of the Chinese army, and cover the attack of the tank cluster on the flank of the Chinese armored group, a large number of Soviet infantry were ordered to ride directly on tanks and assault artillery and participate in the assault together! Baranov even collected a number of trucks to follow the tanks to transport the infantry. This kind of play, which completely ignores the coverage of the Chinese army's artillery fire, can only be described as crazy! And their opponent, the 7th Army of the Chinese Army under the command of General Li Zongren, was also an old unit that fought all the way from Eastern Siberia, and in the face of such a desperate counterattack by the Soviet army, the position was still not chaotic at all.

Nearly 650 105mm and 155mm howitzers from 36 artillery battalions belonging to 36 corps-level artillery regiments and 9 divisional artillery regiments deployed in the rear of the 7th Army's front opened fire together. At the same time, dozens of Luftwaffe HS-129 attack aircraft, which circled in the air to support the Chinese offensive, also joined the battle group. The HS-129 is a special attack aircraft with powerful anti-tank performance developed by the German company Henschel, and the HS-129B-2/R3 equipped with a 37mm anti-tank gun appeared on the Losino-Petrovsky battlefield today. Although there were only two squadrons of 32 aircraft, the nickname of tank opener was by no means in vain. 32 HS-129s were divided into 8 four-plane formations, and launched a series of attacks on Soviet tanks, and when the first HS-129 left the target area after firing shells, the second immediately followed up the attack, and the Soviet tanks caught fire one after another. The falling Chinese howitzer shells blew up the Soviet infantry accompanying the tanks.

However, Baranov, who was watching the battle from a half-track armored command vehicle in the rear, was not moved in the slightest, and now this loss was completely in his expectation, as long as the tank group can break through the Chinese infantry in front of him and go around the flank of the Chinese armored group, the Soviet tank force can become the last bright spot in this world revolution.

"Speed up! Leave the planes in the sky alone! Rush over, don't stop firing and crush all the Chinese with tracks! Konev, who was commanding the assault further ahead, saw the Chinese infantry on the battlefield in front of him retreating to his starting position, and shouted excitedly: "Rush over!" Rush over is victory, rush, crush them, kill all these damned invaders......"

Konev's current opponent, Lieutenant General Wei Lihuang, commander of the 22nd Infantry Corps of the Chinese National Defense Forces, was also a little dumbfounded for a while when he received the news that the Soviet tank cluster had launched a counterattack. His unit is an infantry corps that has just been motorized, and it has not even been equipped with a tank or armored vehicle, and now it has actually encountered the assault of the Soviet tank cluster!

"Fuck, old Maozi, this is dying and wants to pull a cushion!" The historical tiger slapped the top of the map table, shaking everything on it to jump. "Go and call Chief Li and Chief Liao to report the situation and ask for reinforcements from the armored forces."

"Order the 64th Division and the 65th Division, no matter what, they must be resisted by Lao Tzu!"

"Order the 66th Division to send two regiments to reinforce the 64th and 65th Divisions!"

"Order all artillery regiments to immediately push the anti-tank artillery battalions to the reserve positions, be quick!" (To be continued......)
