Although Katerinburg is the logistics base of the Cossack Army, the weapons are far from those of the Chinese Empire, except for the use of Type 91 rifles produced by the Chinese Empire, the specifications of the bullets are the same as those of the Chinese Empire, and the other weapons need to be airlifted over.

Because the aircraft capacity was mostly occupied by the transportation of weapons and ammunition, the Chinese Empire was unable to increase its troops in Katerinburg for a while, and in a short period of time, it could only rely on two divisions of iron-blooded troops to defend the pressure from both sides, but fortunately, Katerinburg was located in the Ural Pass, the terrain was not open, and the defensive position was not long.

The Cossack corps, which had arrived one after another, attacked again, and this time the two armies that arrived were not only a pitiful number of chariot troops, but a part of armored vehicles. It turned out that since the last time the military plane was delayed in the Stanya Alliance due to the lack of trucks, Alexander III realized how much of a mistake it was to not buy a truck, and he realized that every piece of equipment produced by the Chinese Empire was useful.

Secretly blaming his short-sightedness, Alexander III was not stingy this time, and before the Chinese Empire declared war, he bought three thousand trucks from the Chinese consortium at one time, but unfortunately the export of heavy tractors from the Chinese Empire has always been only for the Yaman Empire, so they can't buy it. These trucks were not purchased to transport troops, but the ingenious Cossack Imperial scientists welded steel plates on the outside of the trucks to turn them into armored vehicles, which partially compensated for the lack of funds and the small number of combat vehicles purchased.

This time, the two group armies dispatched more than 400 armored vehicles to rush behind the chariot troops, and each armored car was equipped with a Haqikaisi heavy machine gun, and the dense firepower covered the position of the Iron Army, greatly suppressing the Iron Army's anti-tank weapons.

Armored vehicles accompanied the chariot units to the charge of the Predators, but they were soon retaliated against by heavy artillery. Katerinburg was an important gateway between the Eastern and Western territories of the Cossack Empire, and naturally there were many turrets here, and heavy artillery was also indispensable.

The Cossack Empire lacked weapons, most of them were transported to the front, there were not many guns in stock in Katerinburg, but due to the inconvenience of transportation, there were a lot of heavy artillery left here, and the Iron Army, who trained as a para-special forces, was also very familiar with artillery.

Just as the combined team of combat vehicles and armored vehicles approached the position of the Predators, the heavy artillery positions in the rear opened fire, and a large number of heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 105 mm began to fire one after another, and the dense rain of bullets formed a blockade 300 meters in front of the Predators' positions, blowing up the Cossack armored units that were trying to pass here.

Seeing the Iron Blood artillery firing, the Cossack artillery suppressed it with a larger number of guns, but soon they were unlucky, and there were some fortress artillery forts in Katerinburg that were built on a high ground by the mountain, and although the artillery models in these fortresses were slightly old, they were solid 360 mm caliber fortress guns, and their absolute power was amazing.

Soon after the artillery of the Cossack corps began to return fire, several muffled cannon sounds were heard from inside Katerinburg, and then several large shells visible to the naked eye crossed the sky and flew towards the heavy artillery positions of the Cossack corps.

The reloading facilities of the fortress guns were very primitive, and the rate of fire could only reach one round per hour, which would not have much effect on the course of the war, but the endless anti-tank weapons of the Predators were a headache for the Cossacks.

The whistling sounded, more than a hundred fighters and more than forty bombers of the Cossack Air Force whizzed past, this was the last killer weapon of the Cossack army, a string of bombs fell on the positions of the Iron Army, stirring up bursts of smoke and dust, the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army this time were lightly armed, and the anti-tank weapons were focused on strengthening, but they did not carry anti-aircraft weapons, so they could only hide in the anti-artillery holes, so as not to be scratched by shrapnel outside.

Soon the counterattack of the Predators arrived, and more than thirty fighters took off from the newly built field airfield in Katerinburg, and they quickly rushed to the group of Cossacks. Seeing the planes of the Chinese Air Force, the fighters of the Cossacks quickly met them, and a fierce air battle broke out between the two sides.

The Chinese Air Force deployed too few air forces here, and in the end the bomber group bombed the positions of the Iron Army, but they also lost more than 20 fighters and five bombers, although the Chinese Air Force also lost six fighters, but the combat airspace was over their side, there were parachutes, all the pilots were rescued by their own side, and the Cossack pilots did not survive.

In the other direction of Katerinburg, the 2nd Division resisted the army from the Cossack Central Continent, due to the temporary change of generals of the Cossack Army in the Central Continent, its top management was still in the process of handover, and there were not many troops sent over, although there were also two armies, but they belonged to the reserve forces, and the combat effectiveness was not strong, so the defense in this direction was still very easy.

The battle for Katerinburg was going on, and in the command of the Continental Army in the Cossack Empire, a group of people were busy. "Hurry up, get rid of all the useless stuff, I don't need those Culkin rags, it's a great example of inefficiency and incompetence." An officer with the rank of general arrogantly stood in the middle of the room, commanding a room full of busy staff officers, he was the new commander-in-chief of the Cossack Empire, General Kapoyan.

The staff officers were busy packing up a room full of papers, and a young staff officer turned his back to Kapoyan, packing up the documents of orders issued by Kurkin, and suddenly he found an updated army movement document.

Seeing part of the content of the document, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly stuffed the document into his cuffs, and continued to sort it out as if nothing happened, while the people in this room were busy with their heads down, and no one saw his actions.

The Cossack staff officer, after tidying up the house, returned to his quarters, took out the order document from his sleeve and examined it carefully, and found that it was indeed a very valuable piece of information, and then he closed the curtains, and took out a radio and some scattered parts that ordinary people did not know the purpose of the secret compartment under the bed.

The young Cossack staff officer kept his hands on it, and the parts were installed on the radio one by one, and in a few moments, the radio became a transmitter, and he put on his headphones and began to skillfully shoot telegrams, and a document was sent out so easily.

A word to readers:
