Chapter 258: Night Battle, Night Battle
I learned about the surrounding situation from Smycherov, but there was no way to know about the command because Smicherov's rank was too low. The Tsarist Russian headquarters temporarily changed its address due to the fear of the Northeast Army's beacon fire, and except for some officers and soldiers who entered and exited the headquarters, the others had no way of knowing the specific situation for the time being.
"It seems that we can only carry out the second plan." Cao Lie gestured, and Xiao Ming thoughtfully palmed everything behind Smicherov's head. Zhu Bao just returned to the sewer and was responsible for picking up the 6th Division Xie Changdao Battalion.
The soldiers of the other special operations brigades marched in small groups towards the intended target, first solving the nearby fire points that had just been drawn from Smithcherov's mouth. Then let Xie Changdao let the soldiers of a battalion come out, control these firepower, and then cooperate with the main force of the Zuo Yu Agricultural Division outside, and the gap in opening the Tsarist defense line should not be a big problem, of course, it is also difficult to implement, and if you are not careful, it will be discovered by the Tsarist soldiers, and the special operations brigade and a battalion infiltrated will likely suffer a catastrophe.
Of course, this is the worst-case scenario, at the moment the Tsarist side is unaware of the infiltrated special operations team, after the day's fighting, the road escort team that thought that the Northeast Army was blocked from the position probably never dreamed that the Northeast Army had penetrated deep into their rear, and the fatal knife had begun to stab their henchmen.
Click! In a low sound, Xiao Dai and his three teammates broke the target's neck respectively, until now. The special combat team members are all unarmed or use cold weapons to solve the enemy, from sneak attacks to hidden weapons, which makes people unable to guard against it.
When Xie Changdao and his subordinates came out of the sewer, the disgusting stench of the sewer had already made him unbearable, but the special combat team members in front of him seemed to be fine, and when he saw several corpses of the road guards next to the machine guns, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Two machine guns were occupied. Two important passes were controlled, and the special operations team did not spend a single shot. The enemy knows nothing until now.
Xie Changdao used to be quite confident in the subordinates he led, but after seeing the methods of the special operations team, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his neck. If your position allows such a group of enemies to infiltrate. I'm afraid it won't be much better. Hand-to-hand combat is only one aspect. If it really talks about street fighting, Xie Changdao, who has seen the opponent's marksmanship before, doesn't think that the result will be better, facing those freaks who can hit with one shot at four or five hundred meters. In street fighting, it is simply impossible to guard against it, and the soldiers of a battalion cannot withstand the successive piecemeal knocks.
"No wonder they all say that the special operations team is all monsters, and that's true." Xu Ning glanced at the hideous corpse of the road guard soldier on the ground and muttered in a low voice.
"What nonsense, hurry up and carry the corpse away!" Xie Changdao glared at the other party.
Sou! Cao Lie threw the dagger in his hand, directly into the mouth of the Russian soldier who was about to shout, and the subordinates behind him snatched it out in a few steps, holding the twitching corpse of the Russian soldier, and slowly placing it on the ground to prevent it from making a sound.
"Instructor, so far, Xie Changdao has taken over the machine gun, and our team alone has solved thirty-seven enemies, Xiao Ming, Lin Lei's side has not been discovered by the enemy yet, it should be a lot of progress, is it not a signal flare to notify the Commander Zuo to start attacking?" Wang Hua whispered beside him.
"Is the Trick Mine set up?" Cao Lie asked in a deep voice.
"Tricky mines have been set up in the direction of Tsarist Russian reinforcements, and they can't be caught off guard, enough for them to drink a pot, and a few other machine guns will also become their life-saving talismans." Wang Hua said hesitantly.
Cao Lie was wondering whether to continue to move towards the next target point, in the howling north wind, suddenly a miserable scream sounded, and then there was a panicked cry for help, Cao Lie's expression tightened, and finally came.
"Look at the direction is Du Jian's team, continue to carry out the mission, and prepare to meet the main force of the 6th Division!" Cao Lie said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Instructor!" Wang Hua said in a deep voice.
"Help, help, the Northeast Army has come in!" Peterius stumbled in, and before he could run ten steps, he tripped over Lu Xiuyuan, grabbed his hair and slammed it on the hard ground, and then pinched his throat bone. Unfortunately, although he died, the secret operations of the special operations team inevitably alarmed the Tsarist Russian garrison.
"Prepare to intercept the Russian troops that have come to reinforce you!" Du Jian glanced at Ma Lianyun, who made a mistake, and the teammates of the other team did not complain at all, they knew that complaining did not play any role after a long battle, at this time, only by working together could they survive this turmoil as much as possible, and when they suppressed bandits in the past, it was not that they had not encountered a worse situation, and they had survived in the same way.
"What? The Northeast Army has come in? When did the call come in? "When Major General Pusleping of the command received the news from the signal corps, he jumped up from the bed in shock, and even put his shoes on backwards, originally he still wanted to rely on the existing fortifications to defend the Northeast Army for a while, but where would he have thought that before 24 hours had passed, the Northeast Army would hit less than 500 meters away from the headquarters.
"I don't know what to do, Nevshkin's side immediately reported it after discovering the traces of the Northeast Army, and now Nevshkin has personally led the team to extinguish the Northeast Army that entered the position." The signal corps said truthfully.
"Bastard, incompetent!" Pusley's heart was shocked, and he didn't know what to scold at this time. However, no amount of scolding at this time is useless, the Northeast Army has infiltrated in, and I hope that this potential danger factor can be extinguished in time, but this operation of the Northeast Army has been carefully planned, and the progress of the battle is not as smooth as Pusleypin expected.
"Hurry, hurry, dare to run into our position, the number of people must not be too many, we must destroy this enemy before the general attack of the Northeast Army!" Nevshkin rushed to the area of the incident with more than 200 soldiers, not noticing a thin line under his feet. In this kind of night, coupled with worrying about other things, it is common for many people to wrestle because they run fast, where can they have the leisure to pay attention to the thin line under their feet, but these people did not expect that it was this kind of thin line that caused them heavy casualties.
There was a loud bang, the fire rose in the night, and the explosion suppressed the howling north wind for a while.
At the same time, there were screams one after another, and because they ran faster, the Russian soldiers got closer. Didn't have time to react. It triggered the treacherous mine set by the special operations team.
Nearly thirty people who ran in front were killed and wounded. The dead fell directly to the ground, and the injured could still struggle for a time or two. However, the tragic situation of nearly 30 people killed and injured made the people who survived the catastrophe can't help but be afraid for a while. Even Nevshkin's calf was cut by shrapnel. Although it does not affect the action. But who can guarantee that there will be no similar encounters in the future?
"Enemy attack!" The rest of the people were nervous, and they all looked around nervously with guns, only to find that there was nothing but the cold wind. Empty.
"What the hell is it?" The living people can't help but feel a tingle in their scalps, and the mine is now only easy to see on the battlefield in Europe, and it is still a rare thing in Asia, and there is no example of it being used on the battlefield for the time being.
"No, it can't be a mine." A well-known figure among the officers.
"Fart, the mines are buried in the ground, the ground here is frozen harder than iron, and only pigs can think of burying mines here, not to mention how the enemy can bury mines without being discovered by us?" Nevshkin shouted angrily, with such a hard ground, just digging a hole is not an ordinary difficulty.
The shouting and killing sound gradually rose not far ahead, Nevshkin couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a while, continue to move forward, who knows if the Northeast Army has set up more weird bombs behind the road, but if you don't go to reinforcements, do you see the Northeast Army hitting the nest?
"Onovich, you lead people in front, and the others follow, line up, don't get too close!" Soon Nevshkin thought of a countermeasure and let Onovich, who is usually not very pleasing to the eye, take the lead.
I'll fuck my mother, Onovich scolded in his heart, but Nevshikin's military rank is higher than him, and there is no way to do it at the moment, only to take two people to the head. At the same time, I prayed in my heart that I would not run into similar guys again.
Zuo Yunong, who had been preparing for a long time, saw the signal flare and immediately ordered his subordinates to launch another attack on the buildings held by the Tsarist army to attract the attention of the main force of the Tsarist army.
Onovich is also an unlucky guy, due to the need for reinforcements, although the speed has been reduced a lot, but to reinforce other places, you can't move over step by step. Even though he was a little more cautious, he still accidentally struck a mine, and Onovich and two or three soldiers next to him died in the explosion without incident.
Nevshkin was terrified for a moment, and this explosion seemed to them to be unpreventable, and before he could give the order, the others were already cowering and refusing to move forward. Nevshkin was forced to have no choice but to drive the soldiers in front of him with guns, and his subordinates barely approached the place of engagement.
"This death-scared bastard, he is cowardly, but he wants to push us to the front to die." The few Russian soldiers who were forced forward hated Nevshkin very much.
Suddenly....without waiting for the soldiers to complain to Nevshkin in the future, a burst of machine-gun fire came not far from the point of engagement. The special operators who had taken control of the heavy machine guns were already waiting there. A shuttle of bullets swept out, and suddenly a small group of Tsarist soldiers fell to the ground and could not move. Nevshkin was also shot in the chest, and without him as an officer to supervise the formation, the others could no longer bear the pressure of death, and retreated on the way they came, and their infantry wanted to penetrate the fire network of the heavy machine guns, which was tantamount to a fool's dream. When more than 200 people came, when they withdrew, plus those who ran away in a panic, there were less than half of the troops left.
Du Jian's side is just a microcosm of the whole night battle, at this time, the special operations brigade is like a sharp knife, directly inserted into the vital point of the Tsarist Russian garrison, and the tight firepower network of Tsarist Russia's previous defense has revealed several flaws under Cao Lie's onslaught. What is even more difficult is that the Northeast Army has to face the situation of internal and external cooperation, and the troops that have come over have all suffered a lot of losses in the previous arrangements of the Northeast Army, not to mention the loss of troops, and a small number of troops that have been reinforced have also missed the best time, and one or two unlucky teams have even encountered the large troops of the 6th Division that have already been killed.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" After all, the situation was complicated at night, and the officers and men of the 6th Division who had just come in were a little confused about the direction, and the special operations brigade had already had a certain understanding of the battlefield after some previous exploration, coupled with the words that came out of the mouths of the prisoners.
The Russian soldiers were originally quite well-defended fortified buildings. At this point, it was full of flaws. Especially Xie Changdao's battalion of 500 people. Took over the machine-gun fire points brought down by the special operations team, and inflicted a large number of casualties on the Russian soldiers who were reinforced everywhere. However, the Tsarist Russian army, which was forced to be anxious, also launched a crazy counterattack at this time, which brought great pressure to Xie Changdao.
"Quick, harder. Get all these yellow-skinned monkeys out of the woods! Petaune charged forward with his rifle. Take advantage of the effort of the Northeast Army's machine gun bullets in front. Rush forward.
The accuracy of the rifle in this night was not flattering, and with the exception of the heavy machine guns, the two armies, which were a little closer, soon entered the point of close encounter.
"Kill!" Facing the Russian soldiers who were forced to be anxious. Xie Changdao's battalion is not afraid at all, he fights with the enemy in front of him when he picks up his rifle, the bayonet is red, the training of the Northeast Army is quite strict, in addition to the live ammunition practice, he also attaches great importance to the stab, but due to physical reasons, Lao Maozi relies on a stronger physique, and he does have a certain advantage in stabbing. What's more, at this time, Lao Maozi's forces still have an advantage, and the main force of the 6th Division has not yet penetrated here. For a moment, the situation became quite critical.
"Killing one is enough, killing two is earned, the main force of the division will be killed immediately, and fight with these old hairies!" Xie Changdao is no better than the other two after the situation is exposed.
The sound of the tragic battle sounded in the night, and the Russian soldiers smirked and stabbed their bayonets at Xie Changdao.
"Camp!" Xie Changdao's subordinates saw the danger of the battalion commander by the light of the fire, and immediately shouted, they wanted to rush over for reinforcements, but it was too late. Seeing that Xie Changdao was about to be stabbed in the heart by the Russian soldiers, a gunshot rang out. A small blood hole was blown out of the head of the Tsarist soldier, and the caliber of the M1911 pistol bullet was 9MM, and the short-range lethality was greater than that of the gun, let alone the head.
"Fuck, Captain Lin, you're finally here." Xie Changdao was overjoyed when he saw Lin Lei and more than a dozen other members of the special operations team rushing over like wolves.
"The 6th Division has already been killed, don't fall in love with the war, let's fight and go!" Lin Thunderstorm shouted.
Originally, due to their physical strength, the Tsarist soldiers pressed Xie Changdao's side to fight with forty or fifty people, but after Lin Lei's more than a dozen special combat team members joined, they solved more than a dozen Tsarist soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables, which made them have a delusion, when did these yellow-skinned monkeys become so violent. In hand-to-hand combat, none of these big men were opponents, and they were as fragile as babies.
"Okay, brethren, let's retreat." Xie Changdao smiled, pulled a strip of cloth, and tied the wound on his arm tightly to avoid bleeding too quickly.
Phew, Bah!
As soon as the searchlight headlights of the Tsarist side were turned on, the special operators smashed them with a single shot, and the threat of the Tsarist machine gunners, who had lost their shooting sight, was much lower than usual. The soldiers of the 6th Division also took advantage of the cover of night to break through the obstacles that could not be broken through during the day.
The night battle also brought a lot of trouble to the soldiers of the 6th Division, and even caused a lot of accidental injuries, but this loss was much less than the heavy cost of attacking during the day.
The fighting continued until dawn the next day, when the whole of Harbin was filled with gunfire, and in one night, at the cost of nearly 2,000 men, the 6th Division captured nearly half of the positions of the Russian soldiers.
"The patrol reminds Your Excellency that the war in the city must be stopped as soon as possible, and this poses a great threat to the safety of the lives and property of our nationals. If the patrol makes it impossible for Your Excellency to control the flames of war, our side will send troops into Harbin to protect the safety of the expatriate! ”
The Japanese consul Kawashima Shun's tone was more radical than usual, originally thought that the Northeast Army had paid a huge price, and it was difficult to make substantial progress under the hedgehog-like defense of Tsarist Russia, but he did not expect that in just one day, the Northeast Army made rapid progress, although the core position of the old Tsarist army had not yet been captured, but the Tsarist Russian soldiers inside were indeed broken in yesterday's night battle. The combat power of the Northeast Army is definitely not as weak as the rumored Republic of China army.
Early the next morning, the consuls of several countries found Qin Yu's side one after another.
"General Qin, this fierce battle will indeed have a bad impact on Harbin, and the war should be controlled and should not spread beyond the war zone." Consul Constance frowned and said, how can the war be so easy to control, yesterday a series of shells fell near a British merchant residential area, Constance naturally wanted to stand up and speak, indicating the existence of the British Empire.
"The battle is under control, and I will inevitably take back the Middle Road, and the little remaining strength of the road guards in the city will soon be cleared. The situation in Harbin is already very clear, and I will try my best to control the fighting and affect other places, but if a few consuls really want to do something, it is better to act as an intermediary to persuade the remnants of the road escort team to surrender, and I can absolutely guarantee their safety. Qin Yu said in a firm tone, "Consul Kawashima, I heard that the treatment of my country's people in Qianjinzhai is not very good, should I also send troops into Qianjinzhai to protect their safety?" ”
"Your Excellency, the Qianjinzhai Coal Mine is the legal property of our country, and the military and police of your country have no right to enter it without permission!" Kawashima Shun flatly refused.
"Then there is no need for you to dwell on this matter, although Horvat has been helped by some people and can replenish sufficient arms so quickly, but the war is still in the hands of the Northeast Army." Qin Yu said confidently, "Except for the complex terrain in Harbin and its solid defense, the other places are not enough to resist the offensive of the Northeast Army, and I believe that the battle in Heilongjiang will soon be over." (To be continued......)
