Chapter 263: Atonement
(Thanks to the book friends for their tips and monthly passes, book friends Wen Zhuzhu, and haven't found out to be the helmsman of this book, I originally wanted to add a chapter per person, usually there is something to do, and it takes too long to add two more chapters to a 5,000-word chapter, so I will add a more chapter for the time being.) I hope that book friends will recommend more and collect more, Xie Lu Xie)
The frenzied shells smashed into the barracks of the Russian soldiers, setting off a storm of death, and groups of Russian soldiers fell in the baptism of shrapnel.
The Cossack cavalry was the most elite cavalry unit in Tsarist Russia, but under the baptism of artillery fire, no strong unit could avoid death.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"Damn, get out of the way!"
The Cossack cavalry and some of the Tsarist soldiers reacted quickly, but the attack of the cavalry brigade became more and more fierce, and a dozen artillery pieces crossed the endless snowfield to here, and the hardships can be imagined. The effort will be rewarded, and the soldiers of the artillery battalion belonging to the cavalry brigade frantically vent their shells on the enemy's heads, spreading death to the fullest. The enemy tried to gather enough forces to counterattack, but as soon as the soldiers gathered slightly, the shells immediately swollen. Patches of people are turned on their backs.
"Not a single shell left, all fired!"
The commander of the artillery battalion, Zhang Jianchu, roared with all his might, the panic of the Russian soldiers made the eyes of all the soldiers of the cavalry brigade flash with blood-devouring eyes, the enemy's rout means the victory of the war, for the Northeast Army, there are fewer and fewer bandits, fighting the Outer Mongolian rebels, fighting with the pigtail army can only be regarded as a small fight, and the old Tsarist army in front of him can only be involved with the strong army at the end of the world, and defeating this enemy is the embodiment of the value of the Northeast Army. After all, Tsarist Russia was once a rare big country in the world, and the Northeast Army needed to prove its strength and strive for that honor.
The long knife is out of the sheath. The Cossack cavalry and some infantry were unable to organize an effective resistance formation at the beginning of the bombing, and when the thousands of black cavalry of the Northeast crushed all the way, the outcome of this short but fierce battle had come out in advance......
"What a fucking fuck!" Qin Yu smashed a stack of documents sent over by the adjutant's office directly on Zhao Yunpeng's head. alongside
Zhao Yunpeng, who usually has a bit of a young master's habits, is about to hang down to his chest, He Qing, who is bewitching and bewitching, is wearing a women's military jacket and holding a telegram in his hand, and he was immediately startled when he saw Qin Yu making such a big fire, since the first contact with Qin Yu, it was the first time she saw Qin Yu so angry, even if the Japanese were embarrassed by Qin Yu again, or if there was a big difference with the central side, Qin Yu would only scold a few words at most. Fuck it or something, smash people with things Zhao Yunpeng is the first to be treated like this.
"Due to the negligence of the lowly duty, the aviation department has suffered heavy losses, the loss of 23 aircraft, the lowly duty knows that he is guilty of a capital crime, please give the lowly post a chance to die on the battlefield!" Zhao Yunpeng finally raised his head, his face was much haggard than usual, and his eyes were bloodshot. The Aviation Division lost 23 aircraft, 22 pilots. There are 179 ground staff. The number of people is not large compared to the army, but for the aviation department, it is an unprecedented blow. The Northeast Army had only 120 planes on the Eastern Front in total, and the number of planes lost directly exceeded one-sixth.
", more than two dozen planes, it's hundreds of thousands. This money is not in my eyes. Death of them 201 is an irreversible loss, these are the elites of the flying world, it is human life! With these two dozen planes, more infantry can be saved from the tragedy of exchanging their lives for positions! If you are negligent once, Lao Tzu will lose thousands of more people! "It's not easy to train a pilot. Although the aviation schools in the northeast have run several phases and trained hundreds of pilots, not to the point where no one drives the planes, the pilots with first-class skills are first recruited into the troops, which means that those who lose the best skills are the ones with the best skills. Fighting a war kills people, Qin Yu does not resist this, but the losses caused by this kind of arrogance are unbearable.
"Please give the lowly duty the opportunity to become a martyr, and the lowly duty will seek revenge from the enemy." Zhao Yunpeng said with red eyes.
"In your state, let alone knocking others down, it's good to be able to perform tasks normally." Qin Yu sat back on the chair, too lazy to look at Zhao Yunpeng again, and turned to look at Chen Tao with horizontal eyebrows, "And you, don't think you can escape this time, there are suddenly dozens of planes in the Tsarist Russian army, Heilongjiang is not Lao Maozi's Qiankun bag, dozens of planes have arrived in Heilongjiang, you don't know anything about it, what are you doing to eat, if you don't still have some use now, Lao Tzu will do it for you now." ”
"The handsome man is angry! The humble position will inevitably figure out the strangeness inside, find out the black sheep, and then personally ask the marshal for guilt! Chen Tao's body trembled, dozens of planes of the Tsarist Russian army arrived in Heilongjiang, and the northeast was kept in the dark. Dozens of planes are not a small number, and it is impossible for the northeast side to be ignorant, the only possibility is that there are traitors in the ranks.
"Marshal, the Northeast Army has developed from the Feng Army, and has not suffered defeat for more than ten years, it is inevitable that some arrogance will breed, even if the Marshal has three Shen Wu Order, it cannot be stopped, although the loss is not small, but as long as the lessons can be learned, in the long run, the Northeast Army is not useless. I also take this opportunity to teach the guys below a lesson, so that they know the consequences of negligence. At the moment, since it is a trace of employing people. It's better to let them atone for their crimes, after all, it will be a taboo for soldiers to be in battle. At this time, when Qin Yu was angry, the only one in the room who dared to persuade Qin Yu at this time was Sun Liechen, "This time I was slapped by Tsarist Russia, it should not be the strength of Demipov and Horvat, at this time only the United States and Japan can intervene in the Far East war, and the marshal has a good relationship with the United States, although he does not approve of the marshal forcibly recovering the Middle East Road, but it will not be secretly difficult with the marshal." It should have been the Japanese who intervened. ”
Qin Yu took a deep breath, of course he was aware of this.
"The Beacon of the Aviation Department was shot down by Japanese planes, and there were still several in a row, and they were too small to be bombers. I'm sure it's a fighter developed by Japan. Zhao Yunpeng added that there were not 24 planes in the two airfields that were attacked, and the other two squads were intercepted, and only two survived, "but if it is entangled by four wolf-smoke fighters, there is no reason for the beacon to survive." It can be seen from this that the performance of the fighter developed by Japan is still inferior to that of Wolf Smoke, and the last time it should have been after carrying out a bombing mission, it was followed by Japanese bombers, so that it suffered great suffering, and before destroying the Japanese planes equipped by Tsarist Russia, the bomber formation on the mission should send Wolf Smoke to escort it, as long as you are careful, the Aviation Department can still suppress the Tsarist planes with the current aircraft. ”
Zhao Yunpeng's voice was a little hoarse. Qin Yu was so angry precisely because of this, as long as he was careful, it could have been avoided, even if he was attacked by a Japanese plane, he would never have suffered such a big loss.
"If it weren't for Commander Sun to intercede for you, I would have to do you. Zhao Yunpeng, don't say I didn't give you a chance, better adjust your state. If you're still like this tomorrow, you're dead. Your Director of Aviation has been changed to Interim Officer. He will continue to be responsible for directing the detachments to fight against enemy planes, and if there is no improvement, he will not blame the ruthlessness of military law. If I win the war, I will be able to avoid the death penalty, but the living crime will not escape, and I must give an explanation to the dead soldiers. If you had the dignity of a warrior. Just get me back from the battlefield, avenge the dead, fight the rest of the battle as hard as possible, and get out of here. Qin Yu originally lost his temper, since Sun Liechen pleaded. I borrowed a donkey.
"Thank you, Marshal, thank you Commander Sun!"
Chen Tao is better here, although he is at fault, it is not a capital crime. Zhao Yunpeng has been unable to control his tears, the innocent death of his comrades-in-arms in the past two days, dozens of familiar people died under the bombing of enemy planes, and died so unjustly, Zhao Yunpeng himself has blamed himself to the point of no return, and the responsibility is attributed to himself, can he get this opportunity to atone for his guilt or second, Qin Yuken let him continue to stay in the position of director of aviation, even if it is only temporary, Zhao Yunpeng is already satisfied, as long as he can fly the plane again, he will have a chance to take revenge, Otherwise, if he is allowed to leave the aviation department now, even if Qin Yu is willing to exempt him from the death penalty, Zhao Yunpeng will only live in deep self-blame for the rest of his life, which is equivalent to ruining it.
"If the jade is not cut, it will not be successful, I hope that Zhao Yunpeng, this kid, will not live up to the high expectations of the handsome." Watching the two leave, Sun Liechen sighed in a low voice, having followed Qin Yu for so long, Sun Liechen could naturally see Qin Yu's thoughts.
"Yes, there is no victorious general on the battlefield, if this kid is more competitive and comes out of the shadow of this incident, he will be a rare handsome talent in the future, but if everyone grows up to pay such a price, it will inevitably be too unforgettable, to be honest, if I suffer this kind of loss on the battlefield, I will lose all my old subordinates, Brother Liechen, I am afraid I don't know how to deal with myself." Qin Yu shook his head helplessly, "I can afford to lose more than two dozen planes, and six or seven will be added one after another, how is the situation there, Brother Liechen?" ”
"All departments are ready to be in place one after another, and they can be fully engaged in the war at any time, although Lao Maozi's combat power is not bad, but if there is only such a backhand, one or two sneak attacks are not enough to change the trend of the entire war." Sun Liechen listened to Qin Yu's words and said calmly.
"It's good if you have faith, if you suffer a loss on the battlefield, you should get it back from the battlefield. The Japanese gave me a hard deal this time, and after cleaning up the old hair, one day, I will settle the old accounts with them. Qin Yu did not hide his murderous intentions in his mouth, "Anyone who has been to the Northeast will be liquidated in the future." ”
"I didn't dare to think about it before, but if it continues to develop in this form, it won't take many years to seek revenge from the Japanese." Sun Liechen smiled, under the influence of Qin Yu, the eyes of the generals of the Northeast Army were looking farther west, and they did not regard the warlords of the domestic provinces as opponents, and the vision of these senior generals of Sun Liechen has also been greatly expanded, aircraft, tanks, artillery, and the Western army is no different, and the Japanese Army is known for not being afraid of death. However, Japan's strongest navy is still the navy, and the investment in the army is relatively too small, and although the economy of Northeast China is far inferior to Japan's, it is not impossible to go all out to develop the army and air force and catch up with Japan.
"Great. Good news on the Western Front! Wang Yuhai appeared at the doorway.
"Read!" Qin Yu said.
"As of 3:17 p.m. today, our cavalry brigade has successfully raided Bahrain, burned a large number of intercepted materials, and completely annihilated more than 3,000 Russian infantry and cavalry. Wang Yuhai closed his voice, and his face could not hide his joy.
"Fuck, there's some good news." Qin Yu couldn't help but smile on his face, "This Chen Shengwu." Every time, I have to defend first and then attack, retreat all the way from Hulunbuir to Zhalantun, if I retreat to Qiqihar, I will go there to see the situation. ”
"The marshal also said the same, although Commander Chen is famous for being good at defending, it is not that he does not know how to attack, and the geographical situation of the Western Front determines the means used by Commander Chen." Sun Liechen said with a smile, "The Western Front of the Seminov Department was defeated. On the Eastern Front, there will also be another offensive against the combined forces of Demipov and Horvat, if nothing happens. The lowly meeting is coming to an end. ”
"It's okay, if you want something, just open your mouth, and the Eastern Front is the key to winning or losing." Qin Yu nodded, although Seminov gathered 40,000 people, it was difficult to hide his low-quality nature, after all, he had been recruiting troops since the February Revolution in Tsarist Russia. In less than a year now, the ranks have expanded dozens of times, and some of those who were originally soldiers have certain military qualities, but they are also more difficult to manage than those ordinary people, in order to maintain control of this army. Seminov had to install his former cronies in important positions, so that the command of this huge army was completely controlled by a few people who were originally captains or lieutenants, and a few of them were slightly higher ranks. Even if one or two of them are born to fight, most of them are not geniuses, and they need to have a certain amount of experience in leading troops, and after gradual promotion, they will know more about their own army, and be familiar with some of the advantages and shortcomings of the army, so as to further develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses, otherwise using their own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths is not an act of seeking death.
The top brass of Seminov's team had no experience in commanding large corps, and had previously commanded only one company or platoon. Suddenly, these people can command thousands of people, and it's okay in peacetime, but once the war starts, the consumption of guns and ammunition is a hundred times that of before, and the transportation of materials alone is enough to make people feel sick, and it's okay if something goes wrong in peacetime, when a war starts, it's dozens or hundreds of lives in minutes, and if the guns and ammunition are not in place, there will be a big mess.
In contrast, the Northeast Army has been precipitated for six or seven years since the history of the Feng Army, and the senior generals have all been promoted from the company and platoon commanders below. In terms of organization and coordinated combat capabilities, it is naturally not comparable to the Sheminov Department, coupled with Chen Shengwu's reputation for being steady in his use of troops, he will not make a move easily, if he counterattacks, the possibility of Seminov's reversal is very small.
Just when Zhao Yunpeng made up his mind to be ashamed of the snow, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and the sparse snowflakes in the sky disrupted the Northeast Army's combat plan, and the snow did not fall much, but that was for people, the plane was flying in the sky, the speed of 100 kilometers per hour, and the visibility was low, and too many snowflakes had accumulated on the wings and fuselage, which was enough to form a fatal threat to the aircraft.
Dmipov and Horvat, who had had enough of the Northeast Army's bombardment, felt that the opportunity was rare, and after the initial rapid advance, Semyrov's side suddenly encountered a siege and lost troops. Of course, the two of them were not worried about the life or death of Semyzhov, Horvat was originally a relative of the Russian empress, and he himself served as the director of the Eastern Railway Bureau for many years. And Dmipov is also a prominent nobleman, and he doesn't think much of Semyzhov, a low-status person. If it weren't for the fear that Chen Shengwu's 3rd Army of the Northeast Army would return to the division after cleaning up Seminov to increase their pressure and lead to the defeat of the entire war, Demipov would not care about Seminov's life or death.
However, at this time, Seminov suffered such a big loss, and the loss of nearly half of his troops was too much to support, and Dmipov and Horvat could only count on completely defeating the Northeast Army in front of him before Seminov was defeated. In the snowy weather, both sides could not use planes, and the Russian soldiers also believed that they were pressed and beaten by the Northeast Army before, completely because of the factor of aircraft, not how capable the Northeast Army was. Now that the two sides have returned to the same starting line, it will not be difficult to defeat these relatively small Northeast Army.
The snow drifts gently down with the wind, and if you stand in the field for a long time, your body will become a little whiter.
Boom...
The defeat on the Western Front made Demipov anxious, so he smashed into all the money in his hand, 60 heavy guns transported from Vladivostok, including 46 105MM howitzers, 14 150MM guns, plus 76MM guns attached to the troops, for a time there was indeed a slight advantage in the number of artillery.
The rumbling of artillery resounded through the positions of both sides, and the icy snowflakes were melted by the scorching flames of battle. For thousands of years since the formation of human civilization, it has always been humble and weak in the face of the power of nature, and the momentum and destructive power caused by it are not inferior to that of an ordinary natural disaster.
Ice, snow, and mud were scattered in the explosion, and a large number of soldiers of the Northeast Army and Tsarist Russia were killed or injured in the explosion.
More than 300 pieces of artillery were assembled by the old Russian army in Shannan, Xiaoxilinggou, Suizhong Village, and other areas, and the noisy artillery fire continued intermittently for nearly 20 minutes, and more than 20,000 shells were poured on the heads of the Northeast Army.
After carrying out the covering bombing, the ground troops began to attack the long front of the Northeast Army that lasted nearly 100 miles in units, such as companies, battalions, and regiments.
"Fuck, these old hairy boys, they're on gunpowder." The mixture of ice slag and dirt flew overhead, and Liao Fangtian was dizzy from the sound of the huge artillery, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. (To be continued......)
