Chapter 305: Crisis in a Grim Situation
PS: Bow and thank you for the two valuable monthly tickets voted by the children's shoes who knew the summer rain overnight, thank you, thank you! Bow and thank jerryw1975 for the tip, thank you, thank you!!
The Russian airfield, which was built in a mountain col, was built improvised, the product of tension after the attack on Lake Baikal.
This airfield did not have the huge engineering of civil work and the hexagonal stone pillars of the Japanese army's northeastern airfield, but chose a flat canyon and leveled the ground with water, which was actually a man-made ice lake, and it was a man-made ice lake that did not exist for long, and it would melt in half a month at most.
But the meaning of the beard is very simple, that is, to open the gates along the Charlan and Tuerta lines in half a month, bomb Ulaanbaatar and Öndörkhan and other large towns, effectively destroy the military facilities, supplies and casualties of the advance army, provide support for the general offensive, and defeat the advance army in one fell swoop.
He was right, the advance army could not withstand this kind of war attrition. Don't say anything else, let's talk about artillery, the advance army is currently damaged and it is difficult to replenish, although they have robbed a lot, but that does not mean that they can keep up with the consumption, plus in order to change the population, they also sold a part of the short- and medium-range artillery to Lao Jiang, so that the number of artillery in Dong Ku's hands is not very much, otherwise, he will not draw heavy artillery with a range of more than ten kilometers from Suifenhe and Hutou to cut flesh and mend sores. Although there may not be any more major wars in that area, it should not be transferred in this way.
Now the Soviet Russian aircraft are not the last two years, now the Soviet Russia has more than 40 airframe production plants, there are 30 engine production plants, plus the production speed is fast enough, they have a large number of aircraft, especially the heavy bombardment of the Iraq series, which is more than 2,000 aircraft. The only drawback was that the state was not strong enough during this period, and no permanent airfields were built except for Vladivostok and Siberia. Moreover, the airport in Vladivostok is not yet capable of taking off and landing heavy bombardment, and the number of aircraft stops is also limited, so it is unable to form a strong combat effectiveness.
At this time, a large number of aircraft were gathered in Siberia and Tomsk, and there were already more than 600 aircraft of various types, only due to the supply distance of more than 1,000 kilometers. When entering the territory of Mongolia to bomb Ulabaatar, there was a shortage of fuel for the return flight, so instead of a large-scale air strike, a temporary airfield was built in a mountain col less than 100 kilometers from Charland.
However, this Binghu airfield, which can accommodate more than 200 aircraft, is enough to destroy all the military targets of the advance army, after all, there are no planes of the advance army, and the air interception is zero. There are no more attack aircraft to escort the escort.
When Dong Ku arrived in Ulabaatar, the reconnaissance team sent by Goudan also found the Ice Lake Airport.
The Binghu airfield was heavily guarded by a division, and it could be said that it was very strong, but the special operations capability of the advance force was also beyond Lao Maozi's expectations, and a team of only 30 people successfully entered the airfield and destroyed all the existing airplanes, fuel, and bomb reserves at the airfield. Although this team did not survive, the losses caused to Soviet Russia were incalculable. Even the 180 heavy bombardments that had just arrived at night did not escape the catastrophe.
The raging fire burned for three days, and the glacial lake was no longer a glacial lake, but a sea of fire. The explosion of piles of aerial bombs made it impossible for the valley to take off and land planes, and one of the surrounding divisions also suffered heavy losses, and in the shock wave, most of them became lonely ghosts.
Successfully destroyed the temporary airfield. In three days, all 300 antiaircraft guns were in place, a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns were also delivered, and there were also 30 twin machine guns of 30 calibers that Dong Ku had just manufactured. Used to defend Turta and Charland.
In three days, the artillery moved back from the surrounding positions successfully blocked another onslaught of Soviet Russia, and destroyed an artillery position of 50 guns 13 kilometers away from the opponent, so that the angry bearded man had to order a suspension of the offensive and wait for the implementation of the overall battle plan before attacking.
At the same time, Lao Chiang gradually received a large number of tanks, and all the tanks were already in place. In this way, the non-aggression pact he signed with Soviet Russia in 37 years in history no longer exists, and there is no such thing as a loan of 500 million US dollars, and Soviet Russia will have no excuse to loot the three eastern provinces and even take away the window frames. Besides, now that Dong Ku is in Heilongjiang, Lao Maozi wants to rob it, and he has to ask Dong Ku to rob it.
These weapons, except for the planes, which were not given to the Dong treasury, the number of tanks has exceeded the number of tanks that the bearded man gave to Lao Chiang to buy his Soviet-made T26 and some other types of tanks, and the artillery also exceeded the loan arms deal, including Mogan, Depp, and the most important thing is anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns.
At that time, Lao Chiang only got 20 antiaircraft guns and 80 anti-tank guns from Soviet Russia, while Dong Ku gave 150 Japanese 75 anti-aircraft guns and 180 Soviet-made 37-mm anti-tank guns, which was enough for Lao Chiang to assemble 12 divisions.
The reason why Dong Ku gave Lao Jiang these weapons, he has his plan, in the current situation, in . Beg. Although the Red Army won the Long March, it needed to recuperate after all, and even if its funds worth tens of millions of gold were in place, it would be difficult to get the Soviet district to stand up in a short time, because it was too barren. And once the wheel of history does not stop, the fight against the Japanese still needs Lao Chiang to support the advance. He didn't have any ideas, he just wanted to sacrifice less.
With these tanks and anti-tank weapons, coupled with the strength of air defense, the national army could not let small Japan advance quickly in the battle, and some even collapsed with one blow, relying on only a dozen thin-skinned 97 tanks.
Moreover, Dong Ku just wanted to block the opportunity to sign a contract between Lao Chiang and Soviet Russia, after all, Lao Chiang is now the actual person in power, and he can have the right to buy weapons from any country, and with this batch of weapons, Lao Chiang has a hard waist at the same time, and at the same time, he does not have to ask for help everywhere, or even sell his interests to strengthen himself to protect himself.
When the bearded man learned that the temporary airfield had been attacked and all destroyed, he did not become angry again, but calmly analyzed the situation in front of him.
With the Japanese, he got a lot of information about the advance army, at this time. He already regarded the advance army as the number one enemy, and judging from the ruthless combat style of the advance army, the advance army was by no means the style of any Chinese army, and once it fought, it would not pay attention to rules and would not care about any conventions. Even in order to prevent Japan from killing the poor, he once created the Jiamusi poison gas tragedy, which shows that this opponent is decisive and ruthless, and does not care about public opinion, and will do whatever it takes to achieve the goal.
Combined with all the deeds from 'Dalenevchensk' to 'Angarsk', except for the 30,000 or 40,000 old, young, sick and disabled people returned by 'Angarsk', not a single one was left alive, at least even he demanded several times that the advance army return the prisoners and poor people. They were all directly refused, and they were not even given the opportunity to talk, and it was clear that they did not intend to resolve the dispute through talks.
And he didn't intend to talk about it, just when the Binghu Airport was attacked, the Japanese official in Moscow, 'Kawada Yuumi', submitted a new letter of intent for the Manchurian-Mongolian agreement, briefly and concisely stating that the Japanese side had given up Heilongjiang and the interests of Mongolia, and cooperated with the Soviet and Russian troops to contain the main force of the advance army along the Harbin line. Heilongjiang was occupied by Soviet Russia, and the Mongolian and Japanese sides were no longer involved.
This letter of intent actually shows that the Japanese side has given up Heilongjiang. Abandoned Mongolia and occupied only the existing Jilin and Liaoning. As for cooperation, the bearded man believes this very much, because Japan, a filthy nation, is a nation that goes back on its word and does not pay attention to credibility. Once the main force of the advance army is transferred out of the Harbin defense line, and there is an empty situation, the Japanese will not give up the opportunity to attack, what to give up Heilongjiang, once they attack Heilongjiang first. Don't want to rip off yet? But because of this, it will contain some of the main forces of the advance army, so that his side can be easier to attack.
The bearded man integrated all the information, and finally gave up the intention of immediate retaliation, and instead used air strikes, taking off from the Siberian airfield and Tomsk airfield, bombing the Mongolian territory nearby, diverting the strength of the advance army, and using armored divisions and cavalry on the Charlan side to continue the attack until the button was torn at a certain position.
As soon as Dongku had taken a breather and set up the air defense of Ulaanbaatar, Charland and Turta, the Russian planes flew over the small towns of Kiji, Sebi and Sistikmu in Mongolia, and blew them to the ground, burning all the houses. There were not many of the two regiments stationed there, and together there were not even two battalions left.
Dong Ku was furious when he was attacked by the air, but he had no good way to prevent Soviet Russia from taking the opportunity to cross the mountains and break through into the territory.
He quickly continued to pump anti-aircraft artillery from Harbin and stepped up production. He did not have air supremacy, and could only use passive defense to deal with the bombing of Soviet and Russian aircraft. And the destruction of the airfields in Siberia and Tomsk is not as simple as imagined, it is not a temporary airfield in the valley, it is heavily defended, and it is under military control for several kilometers, and it is easy to destroy.
At the very moment when he urgently transferred anti-aircraft artillery and troops, the Russians launched an attack along the Charlan line.
Several positions were attacked at the same time, and the cavalry of the opposing side, after encountering fierce resistance, immediately withdrew, and did not continue to attack. The speed of cavalry movement is very fast, especially in this season that is close to civilization, so that the garrison troops do not dare to easily support the nearest position and implement tactics such as encirclement.
was attacked at more than a dozen points in a row, Dong Ku had a headache, but he understood one thing with the dog, that is, the situation was not optimistic.
The Russians' method of attack was simple, but very effective, and no matter what position was attacked, he had to deal with it with all his might. But in this way, the forces are firmly tied to those places, and no position that is convenient for attack will not dare to be less than one brigade, that is, they will take out dozens of brigades to defend the line, and that section is more than a hundred kilometers.
And the internal protection, especially the air defense, will also involve his huge energy, and a few more air raids, those border towns will cease to exist, and it will also provide unhindered convenience for the entry of Soviet Russia. So, the direction closer to Siberia could not yet be without a large garrison. In this way, he will have more than 200,000 troops in his hands, and he will be tethered to the defense, and nothing else can be done.
"Damn!"
Dong Ku slammed his fist on the table, causing the jar to jump and splash.
But at this time, in addition to passive defense, he really had no way to solve the attack of Soviet Russia, so he could only increase his troops and strictly defend it. He has more defense now, offense, and the delivery of supplies alone is not something he can do now. And he didn't have so much material support to fight a huge battle.
The development of the situation greatly exceeded Dong Ku's expectations, and this tactic of Soviet Russia was tantamount to tying him up and depleting his national strength. Although several minerals in Mongolia have been mined, it is a pity that there are not many shallow and open-pit mines that can be mined in the early stage, and they can supply the steelmaking furnaces and smelting furnaces that are being built, and that is only two months later. Therefore, he can't afford to consume, at least offensively, he can't afford to consume.
As for air supremacy, the industrial park has already built twelve airframe production plants, fifteen engine plants, ten tank foundries, but, these are all under construction, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources, it takes time, and it is impossible to put into production in at least three months, just to build, not to mention the finished product.
Dong Ku was very helpless at this time, so he reincorporated the originally planned reserves into the sequence, began to train intensively, and issued weapons, hoping that these recruits would be able to make up for the losses on the defensive line in the next three months. At the same time, 80,000 or 90,000 recruits in Harbin who had completed their training and had numbers were also spread along the Wuchang and other lines to prepare for the upcoming summer offensive.
He was busy here, but he didn't know that Lao Zhao was not only following him. Yang got in touch and also learned about the provinces from Jilin Lao Yang. Party Committee, Party. News of the attack on Venezuela. Lao Zhao didn't need to analyze it to know that Dong Ku did it, because most of them were cadres who had returned from Soviet Russia.
With the Ferret incident, and with the front car where all the cadres above the division and company level were wiped out, how could Lao Zhao not know that this was done by Dong Ku? Moreover, Dong Ku's assassination infiltration can be said to be pervasive, and dozens of people can be taken away in hundreds of thousands of military camps, not to mention the underground party hidden in the market? Those civilian personnel couldn't stop Dong Ku's thunder.
Although he understood Dong Ku's approach, he couldn't accept it. After all, these are not all Soviet Russian lackeys, there are still many excellent parties. staff. Although Dong Ku was forced by the situation, it was equivalent to destroying several organizations, making it difficult to get instructions through, and also causing great losses to the organization.
Coupled with the fact that it was difficult for him to accept Dong Ku's excesses and paranoia, he had all kinds of thoughts in his heart.
Dong Ku didn't know about it, and even if he did, he didn't have time to pay attention to it. In extraordinary times, it is difficult for him to survive, not to mention that he is not good at playing politics. Zhi, even if he is good at it, he doesn't have the energy, he doesn't have the time to study these things. Moreover, even if he is infamous on his back, he will not give these people the opportunity to continue persecuting heroes.
This is the last thing he can accept.
Lao Yang had already kept a close distance from Dong Ku after Cheng Bin was innocently sniped, if he wasn't concerned about weapons and cooperation, if it wasn't for the same goal of resisting Japan, I'm afraid he wouldn't have touched Dong Ku's side. Just a few days ago, in his secret camp, all 16 political cadres were assassinated, and there was not one left, and one of them was his capable political commissar, although he also returned from studying in Soviet Russia, but he was not a member of the investigation team.
Of those investigation teams, he heard Lao Zhao talk about the Ferre incident, and he strictly guarded the investigation team, and did not bring much turmoil to the troops, if he wanted to be killed, he could accept it, but his own cadres were piggybacked, which was unacceptable.
Like Lao Zhao, he can understand, but he will never accept it, let alone in Zhong. When the central government reorganized these provincial party committees, there was already an order, that is, to avoid one day, Lao Zhao's troops would fall into a situation where they could not retreat, although the central government had already obtained a large amount of gold and silver and some drawings, but, as a big thing, how could they not consider their own safety? Fighting with a person who can kill at any time, who dares to guarantee that something will not happen one day?
At this point, an undercurrent surged in the happy cooperation between Dong Ku and Lao Zhao...... (To be continued......)
