Chapter 320: The tide is surging

The Russians did not steal chickens and rice, but suffered the counterattack of the Feng army, and the Russians were constantly killed, and the corpses were everywhere, and the Russians retreated step by step, while the Feng army continued to move forward bravely, and the ground under their feet had reached the territory of Russia.

But it was once sacred territory to China a few decades ago, but now it has fallen into the hands of the Russians, and it feels extraordinary for the Feng army to set foot here again. In the depths of every Chinese, there is a land plot, and almost everyone has a sense of grief and indignation when stepping on this black soil that is not much different from the three eastern provinces.

Since I was depressed in my heart, I could only take these Russians out of anger, and the attacks of the Feng army became more and more fierce, and the dense bullets shot at the Russians, passing through the ugly bodies, the two sides were getting closer and closer, and the bright bayonets were raised, and the Russians stabbed fiercely.

The blade pierced into the body, piercing the flesh and cutting the muscles and bones, listening to the screams and wails of the Russians, the feeling of suffocation in the chest was slightly better, and some soldiers couldn't help but shout loudly, as if they wanted to release the anger in their chests.

These Russians did not expect that the morale of the Feng army was so high, and they all rushed to kill like fierce tigers, and they were extremely fierce, although the Russians were taller and stronger than them, but they were suppressed by the Feng army, and they could only leave a corpse in one place.

The exchange of fire was not long, but more than 100 Russian troops had already been killed, plus the 100 people eliminated earlier, more than 200 Russian troops were annihilated, and the Feng army was considered a small victory and won a good start.

In the area of Suifenhe, the border of about 30 kilometers is very tense, and incidents of black guns have occurred from time to time.

Zhang Tinglan also got the information. He knew that a great battle had begun, so he immediately ordered the Feng army to take it as soon as they saw it, retreat to the border, use the fortifications built in advance to resist a possible Russian attack, and at the same time send as many scouts as possible on both flanks to prevent the Russians from taking a detour to attack the Feng army.

As for the rest of the Feng army, they all mobilized and went into the trenches to prepare for battle.

And the commander of the Russian army, Konstantin, has long been preparing for war, and now there is an exchange of fire on the border. He immediately used the media to issue an announcement that the Feng army took the initiative to attack the Russian army, and the Russian army had to launch a counterattack, using an iron fist to teach the self-defeating people who tried to provoke Russia in vain, and then the Russian army was mobilized.

A little earlier than Konstantin, of course. Zhang Tinglan made a similar statement, saying that Russian troops had attacked the Chinese border. Killing Chinese compatriots. In order to safeguard China's sovereignty and national interests, the officers and men of the Feng army did not hesitate to fight bloody battles to build the Great Wall with their lives. If you don't succeed, you will be a benevolent!

Both sides are accusing the other side of firing the first shot, which is nothing more than the need for public opinion propaganda, and as for who is justified, it depends on who can win the other on the battlefield. When you really fight, you have to rely on your strength to speak, and your fists are the truth.

After the start of the war, the Russians launched the attack first, and they focused their attack on the direction of the Suifen River in the front, as long as they took this place, it was equivalent to grasping the key to the Middle East Road, and the Russians worked extra hard.

At this time, there is still a sense of arrogance and arrogance at the top of the Russian army, they are not willing to admit the combat effectiveness of the Feng army, even if the Feng army solves Horvat and occupies the Middle East Road with their own Liliang, the Russians also wishfully believe that the Feng army won by sneak attack, if the Russian army is ready, the Feng army is simply a piece of cake.

Konstantin believed that the closer to the Suifen River, the stronger the Feng army would be to defend Liliang, and as long as it broke through a little, the Feng army would collapse on the whole line, based on this judgment, he concentrated all the Russian artillery on the front, and bombarded the positions of the Feng army, and the forces on both flanks were somewhat weak.

As for Zhang Tinglan's strategy of defensive counterattack when he was deploying defenses, although Zhang Tinglan had confidence in the Feng army, he did not dare to be blindly arrogant, the Russian army had rich experience in warfare, and the battle was very brave, and if it took the initiative to attack, it would definitely suffer heavy losses.

And we must also consider the actual situation of both sides, even if the Russian army in front of us is eliminated, Russia still has millions of such troops, and the road guard army in Zhang Tinglan's hands is the essence of the Feng army, if the damage is too great, there is no way to quickly replenish it.

Therefore, it is necessary to exchange the smallest sacrifice for the greatest victory, this is Zhang Tinglan's battle policy long ago, and Sun Anhu, who is in charge of the front-line command, also strongly agrees with Zhang Tinglan's idea, and personally practices it, commanding the soldiers of the Fengjun Army to carry forward the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and tiredness, and have full strength to repair the earth.

Under the guidance of the principle of preserving themselves and destroying the enemy, the tactics of the Feng army were to dig deep trenches and set up wide holes, especially cat's ear holes to defend against artillery attacks.

After many drills, the Feng army has been able to dig the cat's ear hole very skillfully, two or three meters wide, less than ten meters deep, and then use a thick log as a support, which can hide four or five people, and can also store a lot of ammunition, as long as it is not directly hit by the shell, there is no problem.

Zhang Tinglan also adopted the concept of in-depth defense on the entire front, and there was a distance of nearly 20 kilometers from the urban area of Suifenhe to the border line, and on this distance, the Feng army carefully purchased three large defense lines, and dug a large number of communication trenches between each defense line to communicate with each other.

The width of Fengjun's fortification group is about 20 kilometers, and the length stretches for about 30 kilometers, and a fortification group of this scale has never appeared on Chinese soil, and even Jiang Dengxuan and others, who participated in the command, thought that Zhang Tinglan was making a fuss and would not be so.

But after the battle, they felt the wisdom of Zhang Tinglan's strategy, the Russian army was beaten by the Germans in Europe, but after all, it was an old power, and the battle was very fierce, they concentrated all their artillery and bombarded the positions of the Feng army.

This is also a tactic honed in the First World War in Europe, artillery clearance, infantry follow-up, in the Far East this tactic can be regarded as the first show, the power is quite amazing. However, the Feng army also grasped the key to restraining the Russians, that is, to give full play to the role of the ground under their feet, and let the thick ground become the most haode shield of the Feng army.

The Russians' shells blew a storm of metal, and the scattered shrednel basically leveled the fortifications of the Fengjun on the ground, and from a distance, there was only a mess, and the commanders of the Russian army saw this kind of scene, and they couldn't help but hahadaxiao, in their opinion, the Russians had won the battle, and the next thing was to rush up and take the position easily into their own hands.

Ulla, Ulla......

The battlefield once again sounded earth-shattering slogans, more and more Russians rushed towards the Feng army without scruples, seeing that there were still a few hundred meters away from the position, and a barbed wire suddenly appeared in front of them, which was a very nasty thing, and if you were not careful, you would be scratched, and it could seriously block the speed of the infantry.

Fortunately, the Russians were prepared, and they took out scissors and cut the barbed wire little by little. Just as the Russians were about to break through the blockade, suddenly a dense burst of gunfire rang out from the positions of the Feng army, and the Russians were very familiar with this sound, that is, the deep roar characteristic of the Maxim machine gun.

This weapon, which had already proven its might in Europe, also showed its hideous nature in the Far East, and the roar of machine guns was like the howl of death, and the Russians were swept in front of the barbed wire.

The Russians were stunned at once, and they could not have imagined that the Feng army still had such strong firepower, as if the fierce shelling just now had no effect at all. In fact, it did not play a role, although the Russian artillery fire was fierce, but they were not equipped with too many heavy artillery, the largest caliber was a 122-mm howitzer, and there were not many artillery pieces of this level.

Most of the guns they used were 76 mm guns, which did not have much lethality to the specially reinforced anti-artillery holes of the Feng army, and the sacrifices paid by the Feng army were only a dozen people, and more than 20 people were injured, which had almost no impact on the Feng army.

Sun Anhu, who commanded on the front line, also secretly gave a thumbs up to Zhang Tinglan's foresight, and when it comes to the future, he must put the construction of fortifications in the first place, and at the critical moment, he will all point to this thing to save his life.

After being shelled by the Russian army, the Feng army quickly came out of the cat's ear hole, entered the trench, and aimed all the guns at the Russian army, at this time, the Russians rushed over, and hit the machine gun bullet head-on, and in a blink of an eye, one or two hundred Russian soldiers were swept away.

The bullet of the Makqin machine gun is 11.43 mm, which has strong penetration, as long as it is shot, there will be a fist-sized hole, and basically the possibility of treatment is lost, and some of the more unlucky Russian troops were hit by several bullets at the same time, and their bodies were almost broken, and broken limbs were everywhere.

These dead Russians were still at a loss, they couldn't understand how these soldiers could not be damaged at all, and could fight back so violently, of course, these Russian soldiers would go to God with eternal doubts.

The Russian commanders in the back were also dumbfounded, they were still complacent a second ago, and now their faces all turned blue. However, these people could not easily admit defeat, so they could only order the Russian army to continue to increase the intensity of the charge, and at the same time artillery and machine guns had to provide fire cover.

The battle between the two sides officially began, and the contest was fierce from the beginning, and the Russians poured into the Fengjun position like a tidal wave, and the Fengjun army remained immovable like a stubborn stone.

"Commander-in-chief, Mr. Shao Piaoping rushed over with a few reporters, and they asked to see you."

When Zhang Tinglan heard this, she immediately frowned, Shao Piaoping came here at this time, most likely because she wanted to be a war correspondent, but the situation on the front line was too dangerous, and there was a danger of dying at any time, so it was best not to go.

"Supervisor, you said that if I want to report on those respectable and lovely soldiers, if I am not at the forefront, how can I see the most real situation, just by closing the door, I can't write the real thing!" (To be continued......)
