Chapter 579: Cossacks

After understanding the holy will, the new Australian battle plan was quickly formulated, and the landing fleet with the two aircraft carriers in Dingzhen as the core still set off from Mindanao, and then rested in the New Guinean port of Moresby, as for the fact that Port Moresby was not under Chinese control at this time, there was no need to consider the problem, it is estimated that the number of soldiers in this fleet is more than the white people on the entire island of New Guinea, and the only constraint is that the facilities of this port are insufficient, but it is still enough to restore the soldiers to land.

Then set off from Port Moresby and landed in Townsville, the only real city in northern Queensland, which is also the nearest port, and there is a railway to Brisbane, after landing, you can use this port as a base to attack Brisbane in the south, but in this way, not only the offensive route is long and the road to the south is not so convenient to drive straight in, in short, the Australians still have enough time to piece together enough troops to go north to block, as for the rest is a step-by-step battle, This is completely in line with the criteria of His Majesty the Emperor.

Although this will cause some casualties to the attacking troops, it will certainly not be too much, even if the Australians learn from the Boers of the year, they must also have the conditions to learn, Australia has no arms industry, not even a real army, as for civilian weapons are basically purchased from outside, like what rifles and pistols are certainly not lacking, but machine guns and cannons will basically not be available, just rely on some militias with only light weapons in their hands, and they are also old, weak, sick and disabled militias, If you want to resist the Chinese soldiers armed to the teeth, unless you watch too many dramas.

Besides, even if a dozen or two hundred thousand Chinese died in order to conquer Australia, this is completely acceptable to Emperor Yang, imagine an Australia with only orphans and widows waiting to be received, what a wonderful paradise on earth it would be.

The next step in the formulation of the plan is the concrete implementation, mainly the build-up of the navy and army to Mindanao, which is a German colony, but as an ally, Fox Waldze must fully cooperate with this operation. For a time, from aircraft carriers to landing ships, to cargo ships ro-ro ships, all kinds of ships full of supplies and soldiers began to sail to all the ports in southern Mindanao, and at this time, the 7th and 11th armies of the Chinese Army, which had completed their operational preparations, also began the next offensive operation.

This time their goal was to sweep all of Central Asia, all the way to the shores of the Caspian Sea, and in addition to them, there was also the Tenth Army, which had just conquered Andijan, and the entire three armies, together with the three armored divisions assigned to them, swept through the cities like a wither. The Russian Sixteenth Army, which was defending the area, had little choice but to rout under the onslaught of this torrent of steel, and the Russian rule here was crumbling like a of sand.

To the north, the Russian Twentieth Army, reinforced from Novosibirsk to the south, was firmly blocked by the Chinese Ninth Army in the area of Lake Balkhash, which could not actually be called an obstruction, because with the air support provided by the Army and the Ninth Army, with an armored division, was violently beating the Russian army, which was dominated by Cossack cavalry.

"This is the Cossacks? Don't they have brains? Wang Wending, director of the logistics department of the Ninth Group Army, looked at the Cossacks holding three-meter spears and rushing towards him with a shout like the ancient era of cold weapons, and the scene in front of him was indeed spectacular. The group's charge carried out by the cavalry of an entire division made people's blood boil, as if they felt the trembling of the earth.

It's a pity, this has a hairy use!

"Little ones, pull our cannons out!" Wang Wending stood on a military off-road vehicle. Holding his beloved pet, he roared arrogantly like Captain Barbossa who was holding a monkey, this guy's pet is a cute rabbit at the level of a Shen beast, because it is influenced by the emperor's majesty who likes to raise this thing. This round wild cat is becoming a hot commodity in China's pet industry, and it has been fried to tens of thousands of yuan in just a few years, and Minister Wang's one certainly doesn't cost money. At this time, the grasslands of the northwest are everywhere!

As a logistics minister, he usually doesn't have the opportunity to participate in battle, which is a shame for a major general, and now that he can finally take it easy, this guy's happy lips are a little trembling.

Then I saw forty strangely shaped chariots suddenly driving out of the convoy escorting supplies, the chassis was no different from a normal chariot, that is, the turret was different, or it could not be said that the upper turret, but a kind of semi-open gun shield with only the front half, and from behind this semi-open gun shield protruded four four-point 5 mm anti-aircraft machine guns arranged at four corners.

After receiving the information, the Cossack cavalry, who braved the wind and snow to drive more than 100 kilometers on the dangerous ice of Lake Balkhash and came to attack the logistics unit of the Ninth Army, absolutely did not expect that the target they were going to sneak attack was transporting this time

This is the first batch of self-propelled anti-aircraft guns that Emperor Yang has just made for his armored division, or it can also be said that self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns, originally he wanted to play the Shilka River, but later several division commanders of the armored forces thought that it was completely unnecessary, and under the current circumstances, the Entente did not have the air power that could threaten the Chinese armored forces at all, and instead of engaging in flashy four-barreled two- and three-millimeter anti-aircraft guns, it was better to put the fourteen-five-millimeter four-barreled anti-aircraft machine gun directly on the chassis of the combat vehicle. This can fully meet the needs of air defense, and can carry more shells, each machine gun with a chain of ammunition is equipped with 1,000 rounds, four of them add up to 4,000 rounds, even the fastest rate of fire is enough for two minutes of continuous fire, of course, considering the problem of cooling, it is certainly not used in this way.

Poor Cossacks, having no idea what they were going to face, were basking in the excitement of the imminent slaughter of the steppe barbarians as the forty life harvesters drove out of the long convoy. Recently, they have been bullied by the Chinese miserably, with bombers and fighters strafing and bombing overhead, combat vehicles on the ground, and even the Chinese cavalry has a semi-automatic rifle, no matter how they play, they will lose, which makes the arrogant Cossacks embarrassed, and now they have finally found a chance for revenge, and it is still okay to beat the combat troops and the logistics troops to show their prestige.

Although the opponent's convoy drove forty chariots, these chariots did not have much effect in the face of the charge of an entire cavalry division.

"Rush, kill all these yellow-skinned monkeys!" In the howl of Ula, the commander of the Russian Cossack cavalry division waved his saber and shouted, and those cavalrymen began to accelerate one by one with flat-ended spears, although this thing looks funny in such an era, but in fact it is still very useful in real combat, especially when used to nail the infantry, the effect is very significant, not to mention the Russian Cossacks, even the German cavalry units also take this thing.

Just when they were about to rush to a distance of a few hundred meters from the convoy,

"Fire!" Minister Wang, who was holding an electric horn, roared excitedly.

There was a brief buzz, and in an instant, all the barrels of the forty self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns erupted in flames, and 14.5 mm white phosphorus bullets were fired from each barrel at a rate of nearly 600 rounds per minute. Almost in the blink of an eye, the charging Cossacks seemed to have crashed into a high-speed spinning meat grinder, and the flesh and blood of people and horses were twisted into a splattered blood mist at the same time, and the entire charge came to an abrupt end like a knife cut. Those bullets whose caliber can be described as huge can not only directly interrupt the human body, but also interrupt the people behind in the same way, and even the horse's head can be directly knocked down on the neck of the war horse, and a death belt with a width of more than ten meters can be formed in just ten seconds, and the Cossacks behind can't be contained, and then step into the pile of dead bodies of people and horses, and are tripped by the dense corpses and turn people on their backs.

At this time, the firing of the self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns had stopped, and the Cossacks who had gotten up from among the dead bodies of their companions looked blankly at these terrifying monsters on the opposite side, many of them probably did not realize that these were the things that made this qiē, and behind them, the Cossacks who had collected their horses also stopped, looking at the forty self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns with the same blank gaze.

"Keep firing!" Wang Wending stroked the rabbit that was as round as him and said with a smile.

The killing frenzy began again.

When the news that a Cossack cavalry division of the Russian army, which had attacked the logistics unit, was almost wiped out by 40 self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns, reached the headquarters in Taldikurgan, Miao Haining, commander of the Ninth Army, only smiled. The task assigned to him by the theater command was to block the Russian Twentieth Army, but in fact, if he did not take the initiative to attack at this time, the Russians had already burned incense, and in less than a month of fighting, the Russian Twentieth Army was killed and wounded by him by almost one-third, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to go south at all, that is, he could play this kind of small trick of attacking logistics troops.

"Send a report to Dihua, it's not interesting for us to continue to be bored here, just continue to fight north all the way to the Irtysh River." He said to the chief of staff beside him.

"Then it's better to simply propose to fight to Novosibirsk, anyway, the weather is about to get warmer, and the attack on Irkutsk will definitely begin, and we will cut off the railway for the Russians at that time." The chief of staff said with a smile.

"That's okay, anyway, there is still this Russian army group east of the Ural River, concentrate on getting rid of them, Novosibirsk is basically an empty city, if the Russians draw more people from Europe, they can also relieve the pressure on that side." Miao Haining said that it was clear that these front-line generals were not as insidious as their emperors. (To be continued......)
