Chapter 284: The First Battle Shocked Both Sides

Chapter 284: The two sides were shocked in the first battle

In the early morning, the roar of "buzz~buzz~buzz~" airplanes came from the sky above Harbin City! The arquebus has been connected! ”

Tu Qianjun nodded when he heard this, and then raised his binoculars and continued to observe the Soviet troops who shouted "Ula~" to kill! Tu Qianjun glanced at it and knew that this was the Soviet army's tentative attack force! It was not the main force, and then he said to Shang Dinan: "Inform the 33rd Battalion, don't withdraw for me yet!" Withstand his first wave of attacks! Forced out the main forces of the Soviets! ”

Shang Dinan heard Tu Qianjun's order, and immediately responded in a loud voice: "Yes!" ”

Then he hurried down to deliver the order! Tu Qianjun looked at the charging troops and smiled, he didn't know who the commander of this force was, but looking at this kind of tentative attack, he knew that this guy was really cautious!

Successive victories, equipment, and soldiers all have the upper hand, and they refuse to attack at will! It shows that this commander is extremely calm and cautious, and Tu Qianjun can't help but be a little curious about who the commander opposite is.

It will not be the current commander of the Red Banner Special Far Eastern Army of the Soviet Union Vasily. Konstantinovich. Blyukhel, right?! After all, he's the commander-in-chief, so he won't come here so easily, right?!

Actually, it was not Blyukhel on the other side. Rather, another who later served as commander of the Soviet Don Front, together with the commander of the Stalingrad Front, Yeremenko, led his troops in a fierce battle with the German 6th Army that invaded Stalingrad, and captured German Field Marshal Paulus in February of the following year. Konstantinovich. Marshal Rokossovsky!

Now, of course, this marshal is nothing more than the commander of the 5th Brigade of the Kuban Cavalry of the Special Far Eastern Army of the Red Banner of the USSR. But at this time, his military talent had also been revealed, so he was valued by Blyukhel and handed over more than 40,000 troops to his command! Let him attack Harbin!

At this time, the more than 30 fighter planes had already flown into the city of Harbin! Towards a vehicle or position suspected of transporting munitions, it is a burst of "sudden ......" strafing!

Maybe it's because the big wins have made them relax their vigilance, or maybe they are used to the existence of the Northeast Army without any anti-aircraft firepower! And the rapidly rising Soviet fighter plane was suddenly hit by the artillery! "Boom!!" With a bang, the volley exploded into a cloud of sparks!

"Hey! This cannon is beautiful! Lu Shuai said with a smile, to be honest, even if he made a move, he might not be sure to take down this plane! What I didn't expect was to be killed like this!

Moreover, the person who operated the gun was very familiar with the ballistics, and the judgment of the speed of the aircraft was very accurate! It was only four or five cannons that hit that plane! Lu Shuai secretly thought to himself: This guy has to be rewarded, and then let him teach him some experience!

So he said to the soldiers beside him: "Go!" Ask where the cannon was fired! Who operated it! Lao Tzu has to ask the commander for credit for him! ”

"Yes!" The soldier was originally carrying the shells, and when he heard Lu Shuai's words, he answered loudly! Then he rushed towards the firing point.

At this time, this air battle was nearing its end. None of the more than 30 fighter planes could escape, and all of them were buried in Harbin! A total of nearly fifteen were blown up by a volley of thirty anti-aircraft guns!

Most of the rest were wounded by anti-aircraft guns or light and heavy machine guns, and fell miserably. Lu Shuai can also think of a little reason for this. First of all, these fighters did not expect that there would be anti-aircraft fire in this Harbin city!

So I suffered a big loss all of a sudden! Under the frantic attack of thirty anti-aircraft guns, thirty heavy machine guns, and fifty light machine guns, the whole army was annihilated! However, perhaps there is one more reason for this total annihilation: unfamiliarity!

These pilots are not veterans, and they panic when they are suddenly attacked! Not to mention the confusion of the formation, and many of them also forgot to pull up, so they were bombarded by the anti-aircraft fire of the First Army with sufficient ammunition and large firepower coverage!

Lu Shuai smiled, got down from the operating position of the anti-aircraft gun, lit a cigarette for himself, and thought in his heart: Just now, the sound of "clanging~" when the parts fell down after the plane was exploded was really beautiful......

At this time, the soldier who was sent by Lu Shuai just now to ask who was operating the artillery ran back breathlessly and said to Lu Shuai: "Report."

The first attack was frustrated, and the Soviet Union immediately retreated like a tide without hesitation. The wounded Soviet soldiers were also taken down, and the attack lasted less than half an hour before it ended.

Zhou Cai panted and collapsed on the position, and said to the herald beside him: "Go and tell the commander ......"

But before he could finish speaking, he stopped. Because the herald beside him was not half of his body, his stomach had exploded, and the field was flowing all over the ground. Stared at the blank blue sky as the smoke gradually cleared......

About ten minutes later, Tu Qianjun, who was in the second-line position, saw the newly sent herald. The herald was covered in the smell of gunsmoke, and walked up to Tu Qianjun, and said in a straight voice: "Report to the commander!" The front-line position is not lost! The enemy has retreated. ”

Tu Qianjun nodded when he heard this, and said to the soldier, "How are the losses of the brothers?!" ”

The soldier couldn't help but be silent when he heard Tu Qianjun's words. After a while, he said to Tu Qianjun: "More than 400 brothers were killed in the battle, and more than 100 were injured......

Hearing this soldier's words, Tu Qianjun couldn't help but be silent, although he had expected that this time would be a bitter battle! But I didn't expect that the Soviet army lost more than 500 people in just a tentative attack!

Seeing that his commander was silent, the soldier explained: "The main thing is that the enemy's tanks are a big threat, and then the tanks are still followed by people. So as soon as we got over, we had to fight them. That's why the loss will be a little bigger, but Lao Maozi is not much better! They lost at least seven or eight hundred people. ”

Tu Qianjun nodded when he heard this. Then he said to the soldier: "Is there anything wrong with your battalion commander Zhou Cai?!" What is needed on the position?! ”

The soldier shook his head when he heard Tu Qianjun's words, and said, "The battalion commander is fine, but the deputy battalion commander has a broken leg." was carried down. The positions are fine, and the ammunition is also available. ”

Tu Qianjun was silent for a long time after hearing the soldier's words, stood up and looked at the map, and then said to the soldier: "Go back and tell your battalion commander!" After all, now the USSR still needs more time to develop. What we need to do now is to force the young marshal of the Northeast Army to the negotiating table as soon as possible! ”

Vitalyev was silent when he heard this, if he could, he would still prefer to attack in other ways instead of brute force! After all, this attack gave him a sense of crisis, and it seemed that the troops on the opposite side were not simple!

And at this time, Vishniak, who had not spoken, opened his voice! Seeing that he was facing Rokossovsky, he said in a deep voice: "Comrade Rokossovsky! Although the attack was a failure, what I know for sure is that the enemy doesn't seem to have much to do with tanks but to attack with grenades! It was also because we had tanks that we were able to rush in front of the enemy's positions. Yes, my advice is to use tanks directly to break through to the enemy! And then attack with infantry......"

When Rokossovsky heard Vishnyak's words, he turned his head to look at Vitaryev. Seeing that Vitalyev nodded at Rokossovsky, he replied in a deep voice: "I have also observed what Comrade Visniak said, in fact, our tanks have indeed caused them a lot of damage. If it weren't for the fact that the enemy blew up the tracks of a tank, then I think we would have been able to achieve something. But from what I've observed, they shouldn't be having a good time right now. The losses will not be much less than ours. ”

True, Vitalyev's estimate is close to the truth. Now the 33rd Battalion is indeed uncomfortable, and a battalion of almost 900 people has only about 800 combatants. This gave the Soviet troops almost six hundred people at once!

In other words, there are only about 200 people on the position who can move now! And now Qi Mudeng originally planned to send some people to them, but he was rejected by Zhou Cai stubbornly!

Rokossovsky was silent for a long time after hearing Vitalyev's words, and then he said in a deep voice to Vitalyev and Vishnyak: "Let the artillery prepare for thirty minutes of shelling!" And then the whole army attacked! With the MC-18 as the vanguard, the whole army will attack! ”

"Yes!!" Vitalyev and Vishnyak listened to Rokossovsky's words, "Smack! One of them answered loudly!
