Chapter 615: The Mother of Bombs

The poor Cossack cavalry, before they could completely wake up from the frenzied blows of rocket artillery, then encountered the large-caliber bullets of self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns like a storm, twenty high-speed self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns in the fire of mortar shell explosions like a huge broom, instantly swept the entire battlefield, eighty 14.5 mm machine guns poured a torrent of steel at a rate of tens of thousands of rounds per minute, and a piece of flesh and blood flew everywhere, This scene frightened even the commander of this cavalry, Krasnov.

It wasn't unheard of for him to say that he hadn't heard of this kind of thing, after all, a whole cavalry division hated this mechanical monster at the gun, but hearing about it and feeling their horror were two different things.

"Bastard, come back, go around the wings!" He shouted like madness at his subordinates who had begun to rout, but unfortunately no one listened to him at this time, this is an anti-aircraft machine gun, there is no problem with firing a kilometer or two, and they have not seen the ferocity of this kind of machine gun flat fire in the European theater, at that time they were inconvenient to move and there was a way to deal with it, but this was mounted on a chariot, who could deal with it.

Besides, they are not only self-propelled anti-aircraft machine guns, but also the heavy machine guns and 12.7 mm machine guns on those tanks, at least two of the former and one of the latter on one tank, and more than 200 tanks of two tank regiments add up to more than 600 machine guns.

Nima, let's meet the charge of almost seven hundred machine guns of all calibers combined, what difference is this from making us kill ourselves, not to mention the same ferocious artillery fire, isn't it nonsense? The bravery of the Cossacks did not mean that they were willing to die, and a group of cavalrymen looked at their commander with contempt, and then continued to flee from this hell in a frenzy.

"You cowards!" General Krasnov looked at his subordinates who had completely herded the sheep, but he was helpless, he couldn't charge at the seven hundred machine guns very bravely and nobly! As a result, the battle situation was irreparable, and even he turned his horse around and ran.

Just when the cavalry was defeated. The Russian tanks that fled towards the Mias River did not succeed after all, and the distance of more than ten kilometers was an insurmountable gap between life and death for them, and the last Russian tank was finally knocked away by a seven- or six-millimeter armor-piercing shell under the blows of the pursuing Dragon tanks behind them. This volley ended perfectly, Nie Xianfan was not in the mood to continue the attack, so he had an armored division, and it was too unrealistic to attack Chelyabinsk, but then more than 50 bombers who came to provide air support for him chased forward for a while. It was a cool thing to shoot cavalry with a large-caliber machine gun in the sky, and the pilots were crazy, and even one bomber crashed headfirst into a tree because it was too high. This can be regarded as a rare record of shootdown by the Russians.

The result of this battle made Grand Duke Nicholas completely sober up, he understood how pale his attack ability was in the face of the Chinese, it can be said that leaving the strong fortress, he did not win even a small battle, in this case, just stay honestly, anyway, time is in his favor, as long as it drags on until the snowstorm falls, it will be easy to say.

As for Karekin there. He can only let him stick to it with all his might, and it is up to him whether he can hold this or not, in fact, Grand Duke Nicholas is not worried about this, although he gave Kalegin a task of one month. But as long as he can hold on for half a month, it will be about the same, when the railway is destroyed, the Chinese will build the road while walking, and the iron will not be able to hit Chelyabinsk before the arrival of winter.

As for whether Kalykin can hold on to this for half a month, there is definitely no suspense. It is difficult to say whether the Chinese can catch more than 100,000 pigs there in half a month, let alone hundreds of thousands of fully armed living people. It's a pity that he forgot that pigs don't raise their hands and go out in surrender, but people do.

In the next battle, Qincheng, who had no distractions, still played the tactics of steadily advancing on the ground, smashing the sky with heavy hammers, and the domestically produced heavy bombs were directly transported to the military airfield in Pavlodar by airships and transport planes in batches, and then loaded on Liberator bombers and then thrown to Kurgan, like a killing assembly line, this kind of demon that made the Russians desperate smashed on their heads, and this kind of battle lasted for three days, and on the afternoon of the third day, four Liberators actually flew from the country, and I saw what was hanging on the belly of the plane. The pilots of the bomber wing fainted.

This is a super-large bomb, too big, too big to fit in the bomb bay, can only be hung outside the Liberator, what they don't know is that Emperor Yang has been obsessed with this kind of thing recently, when developing those one-and-a-half-ton bombs, he was thinking about playing bigger, although he couldn't find a plane to throw the Grand Slam, but the Liberator at the high cabinet level still didn't have any pressure, so he also asked the arsenal to make a batch of six-ton ones at the same time, and then modified the four latest Liberators, so that it can be mounted directly on such bombs.

Because there was no transport plane capable of carrying it, and even the cargo hold of the airship could not bear such a heavy weight, the four Liberators had to fly from Beijing with four bombs without fuses, and the fuses were placed directly in the cabin, and Emperor Yang also gave its new toy an atmospheric name of the mother of bombs.

The arrival of the mother of the four bombs made the Pavlodar airport a lot of chickens and dogs, and the ground crews and mechanics all flocked around the four liberators, such a long flight must have been overhauled, and they were busy for half the night, and the next morning they screwed the fuse on the mother of the four bombs and took off again and went straight to Kurgan.

In fact, in the city of Kurgan, at this time Karekin and his subordinates were already shaking, just three days of fighting, the Russian casualties were close to half, the ground attack can still be withstanding, so far the Chinese only control less than one-fifth of the urban area of Kurgan, but this aerial bombardment, especially those super bombs, this thing is too desperate, in the face of this thing that continues to fall, even the most stubborn soldiers have lost their fighting spirit, in the face of the roaring super bombs, They feel like a weak girl in the face of a gorilla or a polar bear.

No one has the courage to fight in such a situation.

"Your Excellency, Commander, we must think about the nearly 100,000 lives that remain." In the underground headquarters, which had been shaken and cracked, a group of generals were surrounding Karekin, and one of them said with a sad face.

"You should understand what it means for the fall of Kurgan in a short time, the enemy can directly attack the Ural before the arrival of winter, the entire part of the empire in Asia will be gone, and then the Chinese will set foot in the Volga Valley, when what is left of the Russian Empire?" You should have heard the Beijing Declaration, the goal of the Chinese is to carve up our country with Germany, Austria-Hungary, and only if we firmly block them here, it will be possible to keep more territory in future negotiations. Kalykin said righteously.

"But we will lose in the end, Your Excellency Commander, we are not those gray cattle, we all know this very well, we cannot win the war, if the Chinese want the land east of the Volga, then then we can only give them, is it that the current Russian Empire, still has the ability to continue fighting with them?" Population, industry, weapons, finances, what do we take to disobey the will of that emperor, the courage of the soldiers? What is the use of courage in the face of bombs falling in the sky? In this case, let's stop meaninglessly letting Russian blood continue to drain, we have already shed enough blood. A major general said pessimistically.

I have to say that this guy's mind is still very sober, in fact, the vast majority of the Russian generals he said understand, including Karekin, that Yang Feng really insisted on the east of the Volga River, and in the end Russia could only give it to him, and the two sides are no longer at the same level of opponents at all, even if the Entente bloc is tied together, and if he wants the east of the Volga River alone at that time, it is absolutely impossible for the British and French allies of Russia to continue to fight side by side with the Russian people in order to defend this land, Since that's the case, there's really no need to fight, after five years of fighting, it can be said that I'm exhausted, and now I just want to rest.

For a moment, the entire command was overshadowed.

"Your Excellency, the four-engine bombers are here again!" At this time, an officer came up and spoke with an unconcealable fear.

"Alas!" Karekin and a group of generals stood up and walked to the observation port, looking at the group of bombers covering the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.

As soon as his sigh fell, he saw a bomber suddenly break away from the group and descend, and then hover over a major fortress, and soon a black dot could be faintly seen falling from the belly of the plane, which made Karekin wonder, knowing that this was the first time he had seen a bomb with the naked eye. Before he could think too much, this black dot had already smashed on the fortress, and then he saw that the entire ground seemed to jump up, and in an instant, an unprecedented explosion of fire was drowned, like a stretching body, the flame demon expanded outward at a terrifying speed, and everywhere it passed, it was swallowed up.

When the expansion of the flames stopped, the qi wave did not stop, but continued to expand at almost the same speed, and every place where the eye-catching impact line passed was bulldozed in an instant, and even came towards him all the way. At this moment, a huge explosion slammed into his face with smoke and air, and the rubble hit him with a scream, and then he felt the ground under his feet shake violently like an earthquake, and the reinforced concrete above his head made an overwhelming cracking sound, and then the entire headquarters screamed.
