Chapter 257: Sewer Infiltration

The battle between Xu Zhongxun and the soldiers of the old Russian army in the village was only a microcosm of the whole war, and the 8th Division quickly penetrated between Harbin and Acheng. The China Eastern Railway Bureau regarded Harbin as its center of power, and Tsarist Russia has always regarded Harbin as a springboard for its expansion of colonies.

For many years, Horvat has deducted the wages that should have been paid to the workers, withheld railway taxes, and his own investment, in addition to a large amount of investment in Daosheng Foreign Company, he has also accumulated considerable wealth in Harbin, because the Northeast Army started the war too quickly, this part of the goods will not have time to be transported away, and one or two thousand people are surrounded by the Northeast Army because of the untimely retreat.

Tutu Tu Tu ....

The bullets fired from the buildings repelled another round of attacks by the soldiers of the 6th Division, and more than a dozen soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and the others were also immobilized by the dense bullets.

"Fuck, it's the old man's heavy machine gun again!" Liu Youde saw that his comrades-in-arms around him were shot and convulsed, and he slammed his fist on the cold and hard ground, and his eyes were only a few hundred meters away from the buildings guarded by the Tsarist soldiers, but it was like a death moat, and after paying the lives of one or two hundred soldiers, it was still difficult to cross the thunder pool.

"These stupid fellows thought that Horvat would come to their rescue, but they didn't know that they had been treated as outcasts." Zuo Yunong tightened the white gloves on his hands, held the binoculars and looked at the Russian soldiers who were still making the most stubborn resistance, and couldn't help but sneer.

"There are many people who don't have self-knowledge, and if they don't give these people a little power, they don't know what to fear." Although Chief of Staff Lodge is a little painful, war inevitably comes at a cost. "Lao Maozi's performance is compared to the bandits he has suppressed in the past, the Jilin Army. The performance of Ba Ying's troops is much better, but compared with the rumored bravery and good fighting, there is still a little gap, if Lao Maozi only has this level, with the same troops, the Northeast Army can also eat the other party to death. ”

"This one is different. The Northeast Army now has a high fighting spirit, and has the three eastern provinces as the foundation, full of confidence, the old Maozi in front of him has become rootless water, and it is inevitable to panic when it starts a war, but if this group of people really resists desperately, I am afraid that we will also have to pay a lot of price, and eliminate the one or two thousand people in front of us, as far as the current situation is concerned. I'm afraid I'll have to fill in two regiments to get in. Speaking of which, Zuo Yunong's face was not very good-looking.

"The house built by Lao Maozi is quite solid, but now it is frozen again, and if you go down, you can only make a small hole. And the cannon is very inconvenient to transport back and forth, but it is worth paying some price if necessary. "For the remnants of the Tsarist army entrenched in the railway bureau building, Lodge has no better way at this time.

"There's no way around it. Most of the buildings of the foreigners were built very strongly, and these old men imported a large amount of ordnance from the United States. Intended for use in the European theater, most of them were transported by the Trans-Siberian Railway, but the railway transportation was busy, and Russia and Europe were hit by revolutions, so it was logical that Horvat intercepted these firearms. Zuo Yunong sighed, "Judging from the situation in front of you." To win this war, I am afraid that I will have to pay a lot of losses. ”

The heavy machine gun produced by the United Arms Company at this time was not as good as the performance of Browning, and Qin Yu also had the intention of buying a Browning machine gun, but it was rejected by the arms company over there, and now the machine gun firepower of the troops was all purchased from Germany before. In the past, when there were only a few divisions, the machine gun firepower of the Feng army at that time was probably not much better than that of the Japanese army, but the army was expanded one after another, and the number of machine guns was greatly diluted, which directly led to being suppressed by the firepower of the Russian soldiers in this kind of street fighting. What's more, the Northeast Army is the main attacker, and the Tsarist Russian soldiers are defending against the danger, and the situation is much better. According to the current casualties of the soldiers, if the price is really two or three thousand, it may not necessarily be able to win the building complex centered on the China Eastern Railway Bureau.

"Japan is still watching the drama on the side, and several old forces of Tsarist Russia are also eyeing each other, and they can't be stopped by Tsarist Russia as soon as the battle starts, so they can't apply for a flight team to carry out intensive bombing of the building complex, I don't believe that these old hairy people are not afraid."

"That's all there is to it now."

"Division, military seat." Communicator Hu Changli trotted over and said.

Zuo Yunong walked to the division command post after hearing this, "Hey, military seat, I'm Zuo Yunong." ”

"What, Special Operations Brigade? Flat-firing artillery, okay, I'll send someone over to receive the flat-firing cannon immediately, but the special operations brigade is the heart and soul of the commander, the street fighting here is very fierce, and the casualties are very large, do you want to wait until the last moment before committing to it? ”

"Good steel is used on the blade, and the troops that the marshal spent a lot of money to build are not used as vases." On the other end of the phone, Sun Liechen's voice rang.

"Yes, Throne!"

"Division, what are the orders of the military seat?" Rocky came over at the same time.

"A batch of more than 30 flat-fire guns newly produced by the Benxi Artillery Factory has been shipped, and someone has been sent over to receive it." Zuo Yunong said hesitantly.

"What, flat-fire guns, that's good stuff. I heard that even Commander Yang's side has not been installed for the time being, so I didn't expect to transport it directly to Harbin. "Rocky is hitting the knot, Qin Yu debuted until now, Yang Xing seems to be the number one general under Qin Yu, after Qin Yu became the commander, Yang Xing took over the commander of the 27th Division, and later greatly expanded the army, Yang Xing's 2nd Army is stationed in Fengtian, under its command 3 divisions, but also the most powerful in the army, every time there is new equipment, Yang Xing's troops can always be the first to get, so that other troops are envious, of course, Yang Xing's performance in the previous military exercises also makes others have nothing to say.

"The marshal said that the Northeast Army has no lineage and non-lineage, only the strength of the battle, and the equipment is always prioritized to the strongest troops, but now is wartime, the situation is special, and it is not surprising that the commander and the chief of staff are so decisive. Otherwise, the marshal would not have sent Cao Lie over. In ordinary battles, the anti-aircraft gun is also a sharp weapon for infantry combat, although it has little effect in this situation, but there are too many places that can be used in the field later. Zuo Yunong smiled and said, this is also what he admires Qin Jiyu very much, and he has changed to other powerful factions in the Guannei. No matter what time it is, I'm afraid that the best equipment will always be for the cronies around me, and I will turn a blind eye to the casualties of the battle ahead.

"Cao Lie is here too? Flat-fire guns can't work, Cao Lie's freak might have a way. Rocky was shocked, in a division-level confrontation exercise of the Northeast Army, Cao Lie personally led the team to capture a brigade-level headquarters and a division-level headquarters. In other exercises, after the division-level teams were well prepared, the special operations group did not achieve such results, but it was slowing down the opponent's march. The aspect of sabotage behind enemy lines is still an extremely headache for all the opponents involved in the exercise, and in the words of some soldiers who have suffered losses, the special operations team is not a normal person.

Drip, drip....

Ten military trucks drove on the bumpy road, passed the inspection of the sentry post and drove directly outside the headquarters of the 6th Division.

Bang, the car door was opened, and one by one, the elite fighters who were obviously different from the equipment of other soldiers jumped out of the car, and the whole team was formed. No more, no less, 66 people together. A team of 12 people is set up, with a team leader of 13 people, and a team of five people. 5 squads for a brigade.

"Instructor Cao, the old Maozi on the other side is really difficult to gnaw, the 6th Division is okay to fight in the field, but the situation in front of you. Lao Maozi is holding the ground, it's really nerve-wracking, the 8th Division beat Lao Maozi and fled, but now there is no progress on my side, you have to help. Zuo Yunong saw Cao Lie. He greeted him warmly.

"Division Commander Zuo, the matter is urgent, take me to understand the enemy situation first." Cao Lie nodded, straight to the point, without half a bit of cold language, in fact, as the earliest group of people who followed Qin Yu, there were not many people with qualifications older than him, and Cao Lie was also the only one who was awarded the rank of lieutenant general without leading a large army at this time, which shows that Qin Yu attaches great importance to him. Cao Lie's straightforward nature, most of the generals of the Northeast Army also know the way.

"Okay, Instructor Cao, please come with me." Zuo Yunong nodded, and directly led Cao Lie and several squad leaders into the command center, and the other special combat team members stood still in place like javelins, and a breath of killing spread, the murderous aura on this small team was much stronger than those regular troops, in fact, after Qin Yu controlled the Northeast, Rehe, Chahar, and some small bandits in other places relied on these special operations brigades to complete Everyone has more than ten or twenty lives in their hands, all of them have military daggers, military leather shoes, The water Lianzhu rifles in the hands are all selected from the hundreds of thousands of rifles of the Northeast Army, and each one can reach the level of the current sniper rifle, in addition, these special combat personnel are equipped with scopes, and the newly produced and improved Feng-1 hand steel grenades on the hand grenade side are also preferentially equipped with special combat teams. The blue-gray steel helmet and the American M1911 pistol pinned to the waist are more suitable for combat than the Bai Langning pistol that most officers are equipped with. Seeing this outfit, the guards of the 6th Division couldn't help but look sideways. Compared to them, I am afraid that even the soldiers of the great powers are just like that.

"After the previous exploratory attack, we can roughly get a sense of the enemy's firepower distribution." Zuo Yunong personally told Cao Lie about the battle situation that the soldiers of the 6th Division had exchanged for blood just now.

"The military facilities of the Eastern Railway Bureau were built to guard against the Japanese army, which took into account the possibility of being bombarded by intensive artillery, after the defeat in the Russo-Japanese War, Tsarist Russia suffered a lot of losses in Japanese artillery, as well as the results of killing and injuring Japanese troops with heavy machine guns, which made the Tsarist side pay more attention to firepower, and now there are nearly 2,000 Russian troops trapped inside, not to mention the same strength, that is, two or three times the strength of the other side, and don't want to take the opponent's defense center in a hurry." Cao Lie waved his hand, and Xiao Ming and Zhu Baogang next to him respectively took out the fortification drawings of the Eastern Railway Bureau.

"How did you get your hands on these guys?" Zuo Yunong said with a grunt.

"Director Chen just got it over there, and it just came in handy." Cao Lie said with a smile.

"According to the design of Tsarist Russia, it is simply airtight, and the only way is to besiege it. cut off the supply of food and other supplies. Zuo Yunong frowned and said.

"On the whole, Tsarist Russia's defense is indeed rigorous, but there is still a flaw." Cao Lie squinted at the drawing, and the pencil in his hand pointed directly at the sewer. "The great powers' urban construction concepts are indeed more advanced than those of the previous Republic of China, and like the current Mukden, Anshan, and other places, Harbin also has its own sewer system, which is enough to accommodate small groups of troops." Cao Lie said confidently. "The leaks in the sewers are enough for the special operators to penetrate the Russian fortifications."

"When is Captain Cao going to act?" Left Rain Agricultural Road.

"Tonight!"

"Okay, I'm ready to send troops to respond to your actions." Zuo Yunong nodded.

Cao Lie had made preparations before he came, slightly revised the battle plan according to the distribution of Tsarist Russian firepower points provided by Zuo Yunong, and then rested for a few hours, and after 10 o'clock, he immediately led his troops to set off at night and drilled into the sewers in the area controlled by the Northeast Army that received the positions of Tsarist Russia in the east. Due to the severe cold weather, the dirt in the sewers has been frozen hard, and the sewage has also formed soldiers. It reduced a little trouble for Cao Lie's actions. However, walking in the sewers, you can still smell the stench coming from under your feet from time to time, and tenacious rats are also running in the frozen sewers.

"Map, confirm where you went." Cao Lie said in a low voice.

Lin Lei and Zhu Baogang handed over the map and a small flashlight respectively.

"Go forward another 100 meters, turn left and you will come to the sewer pipe next to the flower bed of the complex, go!"

Cao Lie led the special operators through the sewers like rats, and until they reached their destination, they could already hear faint footsteps overhead.

"Now the Chinese outside are everywhere saying that General Horvat has thrown us and fled." Smicherov smoked the half of the cigarette butt in his mouth. Huddled in the corner with another Russian soldier, trembling a little.

"Who knows? The stingy guy in Horvat, I heard that the things he moved from the railway bureau were pulled by train for more than a dozen times, but what was usually given to us was pitiful, and even the military was deducted. Now he wants us to give him his life. Another Tsarist soldier was also a little indignant. If it weren't for the worse situation in China, I wouldn't have wanted to stay in the road guard team a long time ago. ”

"That's right, I've heard that the people in the Northeast are very good to our immigrants. borrowed grain seeds, and also lent land for us to plant, I don't know if the road is true. If so, what kind of battle will be fought. Smithhirov reluctantly smoked his last cigarette before throwing it out.

"It shouldn't be true, we have killed a lot of Chinese before. It's good if they don't take revenge, and they give so many benefits, where is there such a good thing. Hey, what's ringing, let's go, let's take a look. ”

"If there is anything, there is not a single one here except our ghost shadows." Smithhirov leaned against the corner of the wall and was reluctant to move, "Outside is our tight defense, where will China's Northeast Army appear here before breaking through the outer defense, it's up to you to see for yourself, I'm too lazy to move." ”

After smoking, Smithhirov put his hands in his sleeves, and the cold wind howled outside, if it were not for the strict orders from above, he would have been lazy to sleep, where would he be here to endure the cold and starve.

"It's just that it's not the first time I've seen a drunk officer who is drunk and crazy." The other did not want to toss and leaned against Smithcherov. There were two people who were too lazy to move, and Voos, who had just spoken out, was not willing to do more, and they all received the same salary, so why should he do more.

Just as Vos shrank in the corner of the wall and took out a small piece of face that he had saved and stuffed it into his mouth, Zhu Baogang and the two of them wasted a lot of strength before opening the iron cover of the sewer mouth and lifting it up, a gray shadow jumped up, rolled to the ground, and hid behind the trunk of the big tree next to the flower bed.

The north wind was whistling, and Zhu Baogang and Xiao Ming quietly approached the corner of the building and approached the people of Voos.

Zhu Baogang gestured to Xiao Ming and Chen Xiongfei.

"It's really cold this weather." Vos shuddered, ate a small loaf of bread, had drunk some wine beforehand, which made him a little urgent, and came out of the shelter from the wind, wanting to relax, unaware that danger was looming in his head.

When Vos walked to the side of the flower bed to relieve himself and was comfortable, Chen Xiongfei's big hand had already covered Vos's mouth, and the dagger was gently wiped from Vos's throat, and the murder method was extremely sophisticated.

Over there, Zhu Baogang and Xiao Ming also succeeded at the same time, killing one person, and Smicherov also had a dagger on his neck, at this time Smicherov looked at the unfamiliar faces with a frightened face, he never imagined that under the strict defense of Tsarist Russia, the Northeast Army did not alarm others and directly killed them inside.

"Tell me your command and the distribution of firepower in your Zhilu Dao, we can spare your life and give you the status of a citizen of the Republic of China, ten acres of fertile land, and five hundred northeast votes." Cao Lie looked at Smithcherov's surprised face and tried to be as kind as possible.

"I, why should I believe your words?" Smithlov was pressed against the Adam's apple with a sharp dagger, and he could feel that if he wanted to scream, the opponent's dagger would immediately slash his throat, of course, he had no intention of dedicating himself to Horvat.

"You can choose not to believe it, I have a limited amount of time, I'll give you 3 seconds. When the time comes, you will know what the consequences of the Tao will be for you. Cao Lie began to count in authentic Russian, one, two.

"Wait, I say, I say." Even at this time, it was freezing cold, and under the threat of death, Smicherov couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his head.

"Very well, this war is over, and you will be glad for the decision now." Cao Lie nodded, and first applied a few facilities that he knew, and what Smithcherov said was the same. Smithhirov didn't know that he had walked another way on the door of the ghost, and he told everything he knew about it like an upside-down. As Cao Lie said, there is a way out if he surrenders, if he doesn't surrender, he will die now, and for Horvat, he has no determination to die. (To be continued......)
