Chapter 494 494 The Safin Brigade's counterattack

A small wave did not prevent the Twelve-Nation Alliance Army from advancing on the battlefield of Western Russia, in the wars of the past and present, I have never seen such a terrible advance speed of the Twelve-Nation Alliance, in less than a week, the Central Front and the Northern Front have advanced more than a thousand kilometers together, so that the eyes of military experts from all over the world have fallen out.

In particular, the Twelve-Nation Allied Army marched in parallel on three routes, and in the process of advancing, a similar relay mode was used, generally two group armies along the way, alternating advance and rest, so that under such a rapid marching intensity, a group army that advanced first had the best combat state.

On the one hand, many Soviet Russian troops directly withdrew from the battlefield and were unwilling to continue to fight for Makashev, and on the other hand, Leopold deliberately withdrew his forces and prepared to launch a large-scale defensive operation.

But he himself knows how big this kind of defensive battle can be, no matter how big it is? He can still gather more than 100,000 troops, and any group army of the Chinese on the opposite side is 100,000 troops, and the three-way coalition army presses over, that is, 7.8 million people, whether in terms of equipment level or fighting will, it is not comparable to the Soviet Russian army, which is now like a lost dog.

"What the master hopes is to use the Safin Brigade to fight hard with the Chinese for a while, so as to measure the ability of that alien, in this case, let's fight well!" Leopold thought that he had lost hope for the future, but that he had to fulfill Kirk's entrustment, and that the crazed albinos wanted to gnaw a bite of meat on the Chinese like mad dogs.

Ryazan Prefecture is only a little more than 100 kilometers away from Moscow, and the 9th Army of the Central Front, which is the most advanced, has entered here, and in a few hours, the three armies from the southern front, the two armies from the northern front, plus the ace of Qi Yiming's 1st Army, will meet in this place, and they will launch a general attack on Moscow with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai.

Just look at the map and analyze the actions of the three-way army, in fact, it is easy to come to this judgment, so Leopold decided to launch a counterattack before the coalition army met the division, although he had few troops, but also to grasp the initiative of the battlefield and give the Chinese a good look.

It seemed clear that the ordinary Soviet Russian army was definitely no match for the elite 9th Army of the Central Front, and Leopold sacrificed his Safin Brigade as the main attacking force, supplemented by the rest of the Soviet Russian mechanized troops, and launched an offensive against the 9th Army, which had a firm foothold.

The offensive of the Soviet Russian army has strong Soviet characteristics, even if the scale has been reduced so much, it still insists on its love for the torrent of steel. Hundreds of T-54/55, T-72 and even T-80 main battle tanks and coordinated armored vehicles are clustered around the Safin Brigade heavy troops as the core of combat power, 50 "Black Fierce Horse" super heavy tanks and 30 Ice Fang fighting vehicles.

The Ninth Army naturally discovered the enemy's abnormal movements, and on the one hand, it requested air support from the rear to suppress the enemy, and on the other hand, it sent the army helicopter gunships of its own army to launch a counter-charge against the opponent in coordination with the Type 99 main battle tank armored cluster.

The dozens of Wuzhi-10s that were the first to enter the attack radius began to habitually abuse the armored units of the Soviet Russian army with ferocious firepower on a very large battlefield width, but they only destroyed a dozen enemy tanks and armored vehicles today, and suffered huge losses.

The Ice Fang's auto-tracking air defense system was more terrifying than the Phalanx against air targets, and before the helicopter gunships could react to what was going on, they were shot down from the sky by a stream of freezing light. Today's scene caught the commander a little off guard, the ground battle has been going on for a week, and they have actually lost some helicopters, often shot down by the enemy's individual anti-aircraft missiles with cold arrows, and in the face of such a large-scale enemy armored group, it is generally the air force that comes on the scene to crush and the ground troops clear the field. However, as the battlefield continues to advance, the Air Force's effective forward support capability has become slightly poorer, so when today's battle breaks out, the Air Force still has 20 minutes to reach the battlefield.

This also indirectly led to the Army Aviation Unit of the Ninth Army suffering huge losses, more than a dozen helicopters were shot down one after another by the Ice Fang combat vehicles, and the remaining helicopters did not dare to continue to approach and immediately retreated. Obviously, the Safin Brigade did not want to let the 9th Army's ground aviation withdraw so easily, their suicide drones reappeared, these small and flexible aircraft hunted helicopters such bulky things as it was not difficult, the magnetic bombs they launched attached to the helicopter and exploded immediately, and finally the dozens of Wuzhi-10 sent by the 9th Army only escaped back seven.

This situation was immediately told to the 9th Army, and the enemy took out the things at the bottom of the box this time, and the commander could not act arbitrarily, so he immediately reported the situation to Fei Xin, who was in command, through the data link system. Fei Xin was still near the border of Ryazan at this time, dozens of kilometers away from the location of the 9th Group Army, and he not only held the four-and-a-half-star First Group Army in his hands, but also a "black technology corps" directly controlled by Qi Yiming, the Candle Dragon Unit.

Candle dragon, also known as candle yin, is a kind of strange beast in ancient Chinese mythology, legend has it that it is regarded as day, the eye is the night, the blow is the winter, the call is the summer, does not drink, does not eat, does not rest, the breath is the wind, the body is thousands of miles long, in the east of the apocalypse. The use of candle dragon as the title of this black technology corps shows the magic and strength of this army.

Qi Yiming would not know that the Soviet Russian army had a black technology unit, and then let his ordinary armed forces resist it, and he set out to form the Candle Dragon Force before the war. The size of the Candle Dragon troops varies, and the types of weapons are also different, and they are quite flexible in their use. The Candle Dragon unit sent by Qi Yiming to Fei Xin is roughly equivalent to a division, larger than the Safin Brigade, and the division has several different types of black technology troops under its jurisdiction.

Fei Xin, as the direct commander, needed to make a decision at this time, whether to use the 9th Army to resist the Safin Brigade and other Soviet Russian troops at the expense of large-scale attrition, or let the 9th Army take the initiative to retreat, and then immediately let the Candle Dragon troops go up. No matter how black the technology troops are, they will still be blown up in the face of large-scale ordinary armed forces, but the losses must be a very large number.

After thinking for a while, Fei Xin made a decision to let the entire group army of the 9th Army retreat and move closer to the 1st Army, which was also the first time in this war that the coalition troops faced the retreat of the Soviet Russian army. Even in order to avoid unnecessary losses, Fei Xin ordered the air force units that were about to arrive at the battlefield to retreat, and called out the J-11 Black Hawk fighters and J-20 Veyron fighters that had been hidden in the snow, and coordinated with the Century bombers to attack again.

Leopold found that the Chinese army had retreated, and he also had a rather unexpected feeling, he originally thought that with the invincibility of the Chinese, he would fight hard with the Safin brigade, but he did not expect that they would be so unaffected by the immediate loss, and they were scared like this when dozens of helicopters were knocked out.

Leopold was not happy or excited, but more worried, because it showed that the Chinese did not want to fight him like this, but wanted to beat themselves in a smarter way with minimal losses. He wanted to make the Safin Brigade speed up and intercept the retreating Chinese, but whether it was Black Fierce Ma or Ice Fang, it was far from being as fast as the tank cars T-72, and it had always been something that slowed down the rhythm.

So Leopold had to be bold and let the ordinary armored units of the Soviet Russian army rush up, hoping to take advantage of the momentum just now to eat a part of the Chinese forces and expand the fruits of victory.

However, these ordinary Soviet-made armored vehicles and tanks could never be the opponent of China's armored forces, and the 9th Army was consolidated and then withdrawn, but it was impossible to not even break the back, exposing their backs to the Soviet Russians, and the four armored battalions dragged behind and broke off, engaging the Soviet Russian armored forces that caught up at high speed.

This is a very unsuspenseful thing, the tide of the battle immediately reversed, 99 Tan burst a group of T-72, T-55 tanks without pressure, only ten minutes of effort, there are fifty or sixty Soviet Russian tanks and infantry fighting vehicles destroyed, although everyone uses 125mm smoothbore guns, but obviously Chinese tank guns are more powerful, longer range, 99 fire control is also stronger. In particular, the Chinese tanks, which used their mobility capabilities, continued to shoot while on the move, and then turned 180 degrees on the spot to attack again, making the T-72 Soviet-made tanks very uncomfortable and being smashed one by one.

However, this group of Soviet and Russian armored units still held back the four Chinese armored battalions, and the heavy troops of the Safin Brigade finally caught up slowly, and when the Type 99 tankers observed the size of the Black Mammon that big to foul, they knew that they were going to be in trouble today.

More than 100 tons of black mammoth super heavy tank with 203mm cannon bombardment, this kind of shell with a peculiar shock wave effect, although the fire control is not as precise and advanced as the 99 type, the accuracy is also slightly worse, but I saw the shock wave shell hit the right side of a 99 tank, the powerful shock wave actually directly overturned the more than 50 tons of 99A5 tank.

The Icefang Chariot's attack is even sharper, and the freezing light hits the Type 99's armor, instantly freezing it into ice. The tankers were at risk of a powerful enemy that had burst in, but they were well-trained Red Alert soldiers who would resist even the most difficult situation.

Several Type 99 main battle tanks fired a salvo at a Black Mammoth, and the originally penetrating shells hit the Black Mammoth's body, but only shook it. The same is true of the Ice Fang Chariot, which is continuously bombarded by Type 99 125mm shells, but is still able to maintain its combat capability.

Even the T-72, T-62 and other tanks that were abused by the Type 99 at the beginning and were about to cry at this time also followed the Black Fierce Ma and Ice Fang to launch a counterattack, although they were much less powerful, but they had a numerical advantage, a large number of shells bombarded the Type 99, and they could also destroy the overwhelmed Type 99.
