Aral Sea Battlefield.

The Aral Sea is not the Aral Sea that will disappear in the 21st century, it is one of the largest inland lakes in the world, the size of Sri Lanka, and one of the richest regions in Kazakhstan with a large amount of water used for agricultural irrigation projects.

Fighting here, whether it is the Russian army on the opposite side or the Wehrmacht on the other side, they don't have to worry about food. How the Russian army collected food, Liu Xian didn't know, he just handed over this matter to Zhang Zhongkui for arrangement. Then I heard that Zhang Zhongkui sent troops to invite the large families and leaders of the Kasa people within a radius of 100 miles, raided the homes of two of them, and paid a small amount of silver, and Liu Wanwan's national defense army no longer had to worry about rations. And the beef, mutton and fish meat are constant, and the food is excellent!

Now the battlefield is no longer in Akdouka, but has moved more than forty miles to the east, to a small town called Kolakal, where the Wehrmacht has already built a defensive position, Liu Xian directly stationed in the small town of Kolakar, and the headquarters is only ten miles away from the front line.

The Wehrmacht's retreat seemed to have made the opposing Russian army excited, and their subsequent attack was even more ferocious. But the huge casualties cannot be ignored by a mere double the strength advantage, even if tens of thousands of reinforcements from the Russian army arrive later. But before the Russians died, there had been no heavy exchange of fire between the two armies for ten days.

Artillery does not count.

In the battle of the Aral Sea, neither Chinese nor Russian artillery performed outstandingly. The Russians are because they really don't have any artillery in their hands right now. The losses in the previous Battle of Tacheng and the losses in the Battle of Almaty added up to the loss of half of the Russian artillery. Russia still has to deploy heavy forces in Europe and the Caucasus. In just one or two months, not a few artillery pieces could be deployed to support the Aral Sea region.

And what about the Wehrmacht? The reason for the weakness of artillery is known to everyone. Rail transport capacity is limited.

So the two sides are evenly matched. Every day, he constantly expresses his presence with the sound of cannons. The Russian army is indeed really limited in artillery power, and the Wehrmacht is there. In these days, Liu Xian did not mobilize troops to reinforce the Aral Sea region, and the trains carried only one cannon after another. It's just triggering but not triggering!

"The emperor is really clever! It's not like me! "In Command. Zhang Zhongkui looked at the huge map of the Aral Sea region, and his face was full of emotion.

He couldn't help but admire this. Liu Xian's foresight was once again confirmed. He said that the Russian army would take a detour through the Aral Sea to the belly or the undefended back and stab them hard. Zhang Zhongkui felt that it was nonsense, because the dedication of the Russian army would be too great to risk in doing so. And that's exactly what the Russians did. As soon as it came up, it transported a full two divisions of troops!

"The Aral Sea is navigable." Liu Xian didn't say much about this. He didn't need to show how clever he was, everyone in the world saw him as a god of war except himself. Liu Xian can maintain the 'calm' at the moment, just because he has a little self-knowledge.

The commander in chief of the Russian army on the opposite side is called Lukin. Sokolov, general of infantry, sent troops on the offensive on the front. While containing the Wehrmacht, hundreds of ferries and fish-fighting boats were raised and produced on the west coast of the Aral Sea. Liu Xian has been watching him die. So, these days, I don't think about 'big wins' at all, just sit at home and wait for the fat to come into my mouth."

Although the time has been waiting for a long time, the Russian army's operation across the Aral Sea has arrived. And the first batch was two divisions.

The Russian landing site was an unnamed beach, and the nearest place was a small village called Messe. It was fifty miles from the heart of the Wehrmacht, which was the flank of the Kolakar Line. If Liu Xian did not have a virtual map, and the army was touched by the enemy all the time during the battle, it would be a mortal threat. Even if the heavy firepower of the Russian army in these two divisions is insufficient. The Wehrmacht, which could fight with just over 20,000 rifles, was overwhelmed by the total strength of just over 60,000.

But when the Wehrmacht is prepared, the Russian troops of these two divisions are just fat meat in the mouth.

Liu Xian looked at the virtual map showing that after the large group of fish boats and ferries sent the Russian soldiers to the shallow water, one by one the Russian soldiers jumped into the water like dumplings, and then the boats immediately hurried back in time.

Look at the tension. Liu Xian felt that there would not be only this batch. This should be the first batch, and there will be at least a second batch later. In that case, there will be four Russian divisions, more than 40,000 people.

The west coast of the Aral Sea is crowded. It's not all the military. Because these fishing boats and ferries had also transported supplies to the Russian army on the front line by water, but they were not discovered by the Wehrmacht. Of course, Liu Xian saw it in his eyes.

"Maybe some of the space will be equipped with ammunition and munitions." In that case, that's about 40,000 people.

Definitely a mouth-watering piece of big fat. And this piece of fat meat is also a side dish throughout the feast. The Russian army on the front of the defensive line is in a place that cannot be seen by observing the balloon. A large number of assembled Russian soldiers and those Cossacks were waiting for the Wehrmacht to attack quickly when the Wehrmacht was in disarray.

For Liu Xian, these are a bigger piece of fat, but there are a few bones in this fat, and there are tendons in the meat, and the teeth are stuffed. The Russian army, which has no nameless beach at all, chews smoothly and deliciously.

"Let's go down and set it up!" Liu Xian waved his hand to let Zhang Zhongkui go.

The Russian army will not move today, and it will not move during the day tomorrow, and it will take thirty or forty hours for ships in the Aral Sea to fight back and forth. This is also because the Russians' ships are steamers, and if the old-fashioned sailing ships are ......, hehe, then laugh.

Liu Xian did not care about the arrangement of the national defense force after that. Any battalion commander can handle these things. Liu Xian held the artillery cluster in his hand, just waiting for the Russians on the frontal battlefield to come to his death.

……

"Warriors of the Empire, it is time to wash away your shame. Mother Russia is looking forward to our victory; His Majesty the Tsar looks forward to our victory; The people of Russia look up to our victory.

Victory, victory, victory! Let's hold our rifles tightly and rush into the panicked positions of the Chinese with bayonets -- "Lukin. Sokolov personally stood in front of the assault troops, doing an adrenaline-pumping mobilization. "Come and take the victory we are about to get......"

A dignified, well-dressed old man was chanting a prayer. His gentle and elegant expression was so solemn that it touched the hearts of countless Russian soldiers. All the soldiers and officers were in awe. Because this man was the Patriarch of Moscow, who was of extremely high status in the Orthodox Church.

It's like the gates of heaven are open. There was a mysterious whisper from nowhere, and even the soldiers themselves who were about to enter the battlefield did not understand why their chests were filled with tears. And there was a feeling of joy and distress that stirred them.

One by one, the soldiers began to recite prayers aloud, and some took out the cross from their necks and placed it on their chests:

"Let's pray to the Lord."

"Let us all be together, without hierarchy or hatred, united in fraternal love—in prayer to the Lord."

"Pray for the ascension to heaven, for the salvation of my soul!"

"For the world of angels and for the Lord who dwells above us."

"Surrender ourselves and our lives to Christ our Lord."

Honorable Lukin. Admiral Sokolov was also kneeling at the moment. This is a prayer that has just been sent from St. Petersburg to save Russia from the invasion of the enemy.

"God Almighty, our Savior." The Patriarch began to read aloud in a clear, simple and gentle tone, which only Slavic priests had when they read the scriptures, and it shook the hearts of Russians so irresistibly.

"O God the Sovereign, our Savior! Treat your humble people with mercy and blessing today, be forgiving, listen to our prayers, forgive and have mercy on us! The enemy is harassing your land and trying to destroy the world, and the enemy is fighting against us; They are lawless. Gather together to overthrow your kingdom and destroy your holy Jerusalem and your beloved Russia; Defile your temples and pour out your altars. Desecrate your shrine. Lord, how long will the gangsters run amok? When was the murder listed? ”

"Oh God! Listen to our request for you, and please listen to us: please assert your divine might. Help Alexander, the most faithful and authoritative of God. His Majesty Aleksandrovich; Remembering his integrity and weakness. Give you what you deserve, so that He can protect us. Protect the Israel of your choice. Bless his wisdom, his innovation, and his cause; Strengthen his kingdom with your mighty hand and sustain him in victory over his enemies, just as you made Moses victor over Amalekit, Gideon over Midian, and David over Goliath. Bless his armies and those who are armed and ready to battle in your name, give them bronze bows, and help them in battle with thy spears and shields, and curse and disgrace those who have done us evil; May they be dust in the wind before your faithful warriors, may your mighty angels scatter them and flee, may they fall into a snare without realizing it, and may they reap the fruits of their secret tricks; Let them fall on their knees at the feet of your servants and be swept away by our army. O Lord! You can save the strong and the weak; You are God, and the world cannot overcome you. ”

"God, our Father! Remember your grace, mercy and love, and do not ignore us......

……

O God, our Lord, we believe in you, and let us not be dashed in the hope of your mercy, and give us miracles, and let those who hate us, and hate the Orthodox faith, be disgraced and defeated, that all nations may know that thou art our Lord and we are thy subjects.

Lord, grant us your mercy today, that we may be saved, and that your subjects rejoice in the mercy you have given us, and strike against our enemies, and let them perish swiftly at the feet of your faithful servants. You are the protector, the savior, and the source of victory for all who believe in you, and all glory belongs to you, to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, without end, until eternity. Amen. ”

……

The war began.

The 40,000 Russian troops are attacking the hinterland of the Wehrmacht, which they thought they were unaware of, and more than 50,000 infantry and 25,000 cavalry on the frontal battlefield are ready to fight like hungry wolves when the sudden fire of war illuminates the sky behind the Chinese army on the side of the battlefield!
