"And how many troops do we have in the vicinity at the moment?" Ren Chao then asked.

"Today there are about two divisions, with a total strength of nearly 40,000 troops. The rest of the divisions were also hurrying to this side. Wang Weihua replied.

"And when are you going to attack?" Ren Chao asked.

"According to the plan, the attack will be launched the day after tomorrow." Wang Weihua said casually.

Ren Chao frowned slightly, "At present, our army is four times the enemy's army, and it is completely possible to quickly break through the Russian army's defense line, I don't think there is any need to wait for the follow-up troops to arrive!" On the northeast front, our Chinese Empire has concentrated more than 600,000 troops of three group armies, and if we add the Korean group army, it will be a full 800,000 army, and the strength is twice that of the enemy. ”

"Your Majesty is angry! So we'll attack tomorrow. Wang Weihua saw Ren Chao's face look angry and hurriedly said.

"Then tomorrow! Let the soldiers rest for a good day today, and launch an attack on the enemy on the opposite side early tomorrow morning. Ren Chao said with a stern face.

"Command!" Wang Weihua replied respectfully.

Ren Chao nodded slightly, although Ren Chao also admitted that he seemed to be a little too anxious, but the soldiers were fast, and one more day of delay would be one more change, and now the European war is in full swing, and it is necessary to free up his hands from the war of Tsarist Russia, so that the Chinese Empire can obtain greater benefits according to the future development.

Ren Chao then took a turn around the position, and then went back early to rest, now Ren Chao can also take a break in his busy time, once the battle starts, Ren Chao may not have time even if he wants to rest.

Early the next morning, Ren Chao got up early and ate something casually, but Ren Chao did not go to the headquarters. Instead, they went directly to the forward positions. The offensive plan has already been formulated, and all troops only need to launch an attack according to the plan, not to mention that it is enough for Wang Weihua to be in charge of the headquarters.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the offensive began. The Chinese Imperial artillery positions were the first to sound the rumbling sound of artillery, and more than 100 artillery pieces of various types began to carry out fierce bombardment of the Tsarist positions. Although the Tsarist Russians wanted to fight back, they could not compare with the Chinese Empire in terms of firepower.

About ten minutes later, ten bombers, protected by four fighters, flew over the battlefield. In the early days of World War I, airplanes were first used to direct artillery fire, reconnaissance, and bombing over the battlefield. This was followed by combat operations in which aircraft were used to obstruct enemy aircraft in carrying out the tasks described above. Form a confrontation in the air. It started out as just shooters in the back seat shooting at each other in the air with pistols, rifles and machine guns. As for specialized fighters and bombers, so far the European powers are only at the research stage. However, as a traverser, Ren Chao naturally knew the tremendous role of the air force in future wars, and by virtue of this prescient name, as early as when the aircraft was first studied, Ren Chao had already instructed the Beijing Aircraft Factory to begin developing fighters and bombers for combat use. After several years of research, the first bomber, namely the H-1 bomber, and the first fighter, the Z-1 fighter, were finally developed. In this regard. Huaxia is undoubtedly at the forefront of the world.

After all, so far, aircraft are still high-tech products, and the number of equipment in various countries is not large. The Russian planes in the Far Eastern Military District were even less pitiful, with only a handful of planes used for reconnaissance purposes.

It can be said that the air force of Huaxia does not have any enemies in the Far East at all. After the fourteen extensions flew over the battlefield, they quickly locked on to the first target, which was the artillery position of the Russian army. Ten bombers pounced one after another, strafing the Russian soldiers on the positions. The Russian soldiers on the ground cried and shouted for their mothers to flee in all directions. At this time, fighters had just appeared on the battlefield, and the Tsarists simply did not have effective means of air defense. Heavy losses were suffered under the machine-gun fire of the Huaxia fighters, but this was only the beginning. Then a series of swarthy bombs rained down and exploded on the positions of the Russian army.

The violent explosion ignited the shells piled up on the position, and then triggered a detonation, and in a series of violent explosions, dozens of artillery pieces were missing, and then turned into piles of scrap metal.

After solving the artillery positions of the Russian army, more than a dozen planes circled in the air, then scattered in all directions and began to freely attack Russian targets on the ground. Bombs fell from the sky and accurately threw them into the positions, barracks and fortifications of the Russian army, successfully destroying targets one by one.

The rain of bullets that fell from the sky made the Russian soldiers have nowhere to escape, and they can only be beaten into pieces of mutilated corpses by machine guns. Fourteen warplanes wreaked havoc on the heads of the Russian army for nearly half an hour, until all the ammunition was exhausted, and then they reluctantly returned. Seeing that the plane of the Chinese people was finally gone, the Tsarist Russians finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But for the Russians, the nightmare is far from over, and the artillery positions of the Russian army are being destroyed. The artillery of the Huaxia Army no longer had any scruples, concentrated all its artillery fire and began to bombard the Russian positions fiercely.

Such a heavy artillery bombardment continued for another half hour, and after determining that the enemy's fortifications had been largely destroyed, the Chinese infantry finally launched a fierce attack.

The loud charge horn suddenly sounded, and tens of thousands of soldiers of the Huaxia Army, who had already been impatient, instantly rushed out of the trenches and rushed towards the Russian positions on the opposite bank.

The Hubutu River is only a small river, only 30 to 50 meters wide, and it is already the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is the dry season, and the deepest part is only waist-deep, so soldiers can cross the river on foot.

Ren Chao looked at the Huaxia soldiers who rushed across the river like a tide, and couldn't help but be excited, "This unit in front is a regiment?" Who is their leader? Ren Chao couldn't help but ask casually.

Lieutenant General Ye Feng, the aide-de-camp of the chamberlain, casually flipped through a copy of the text in his hand, glanced at it and said, "Qi Xiang Xià!" Our current unit is the 31st Division of the Imperial Army, the 1st Regiment of the 311th Brigade, and the regiment commander is Colonel Guo Shenjun, who graduated from the eighth phase of the Imperial Army Academy. ”

"Guo joins the army? It turned out to be him, this person I remember, the battle hero in the war against Japan! I even awarded him a medal myself! No wonder this army is so brave, how does that sentence come from, there are no weak soldiers under strong generals! It seems to be true! Ren Chao nodded slightly and said. (To be continued......)
