Chapter 623: Flying to Orenburg

Without the threat of anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft artillery, all helicopters began to lower their altitude. The transport plane was even more exaggerated, and two heavy machine guns all opened fire on one hatch, and under the illumination of flares that rose from time to time, they strangled the fleeing figures all over the ground.

The cavalry, which showed their superiority at this time, had fled several thousand meters along the river at the height of the attack, and at this time, they all stood at a distance, watching in horror as the tragedy unfolded there.

They were powerless to resist this fierce attack in the air, and their horses were useless, just meat shields that consumed the opponent's bullets.

The all-round strafing of the helicopters caused the Russian army to become a mess, and the trucks pulling oil were on fire, and the trucks pulling shells were bombed.

At this time, even if a hundred armored vehicles arrive, they can completely defeat this large army, not to mention annihilation, at least more than half of them will be strangled.

Unfortunately, this was only an air raid, not a war of total annihilation, so without preparations for a full-scale strangulation, it was impossible to achieve a full-scale strangulation.

Hundreds of helicopters wreaked havoc for nearly half an hour, and it was not an exaggeration to say that there were corpses all over the ground, tank wreckage, and truck wreckage all over the ground.

The bullets of the attack aircraft have long been cleared, but the machine guns are looking for the fleeing tanks, chasing the hiding trucks, firing single shots, helplessly slowly consuming the bullets.

The transport plane also kept spitting out bullets, and the flares were exhausted, and the strafing in the later stage had been caused by the Russian army hiding in the dark or lying on the ground, so that the strafing effect was no longer large.

"Evacuate the battlefield!"

The captain in charge was worried about the sudden erection of the enemy's anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft artillery during the attack,

Inflicting damage on the plane, making the attack no longer perfect, also because of the lights on. To make their goal clear, he gave the order in the car.

With the order, the helicopter took off, and in just a moment, it left the battlefield where the fire was still blazing. What was left behind was the wreckage and corpses everywhere.

The roar of the enemy planes disappeared, and the Russian troops hiding on the battlefield slowly showed their heads in fear, and immediately, one by one, the surviving commanders began to roar, treat the wounded, and clean up the battlefield.

They, looking for the wounded in the flashlight, extinguishing the flames on some of the trucks that were still valuable, they. The blood stains all over his body, the oil smoke all over his body, and his heart were even more frightened, making his movements mechanical and numb.

Losses, they have no intention of counting, such a tragic air raid, such a long air raid. It was the only veterans in their lives who had never seen a batch of planes attack for so long. The ammunition is so plentiful, and the firepower is so fierce.

The departure of the helicopter left the support army not with fear, but with real trembling, and they only need to see this kind of enemy plane in the future. I believe that what they can do is to quickly flee for their lives and find a place to hide.

The departure of the plane is not the end of the battle, at this time. Liu Haisong has advanced all the way, unhindered and straight to the Aral Sea, where he will hold the position, he will return with a large army of helicopters, replenish ammunition and fuel, occupy the Aral Sea, and attack Atyrau at the mouth of the Ural River.

Juco's army was only an hour away from Orondo, where the battle would begin in the aftermath of the air raid.

By this time, Atyrau's other large army had stagnated, and the enemy had attacked the Urals, apparently to continue its northward advance, and this judgment was quickly recognized by all the high-ranking officials, and Atyrau's troops had already made a halt to advance and set up defenses along the river to block the enemy's advance.

Their decision was exactly what Yu Lei needed, he needed time to build a defensive line, he needed time to lay out a two-way defensive line, block the pursuers, block the reinforcements, and block the open space between the Caspian Sea and the Ural Mountains.

At the moment when the helicopter returned, Yu Ke's army also entered the countdown to attack.

They marched silently along the ice on the river and on both sides of the river, while the planes landed on the ground more than 30 kilometers away from Orenburg, waiting for the armored troops in front to arrive at the offensive position.

At this time, Orondo was already facing a great enemy, and they had received the news of the attack on the Urals, but the defenders here were only two infantry regiments, two cavalry regiments, and an armored brigade, which had just arrived less than ten hours before reinforcements, in order to block the enemy's advance and give the pursuers time to bite the enemy.

In an hour, they reinforced, already very fortified defensive positions, with bunkers in front of the tanks, which were not intended to meet them, but were only used as fixed batteries.

Although the bunkers built of logs cannot block the shelling, they can reduce the possibility of tanks and armored vehicles being destroyed, and can fire a few more shells.

The anti-tank guns of one door were also under the protection of the bunkers, the muzzles were erected, and all the Russian troops did not sleep, they were nervously busy, preparing for a possible attack.

At this time, they had no reinforcements, and here, once the enemy attacked, they had to hold on alone.

Unbeknownst to them, the enemy's reconnaissance detachment had approached them, and had touched several waves of outposts, so that they did not know the news of the enemy's approach.

Yu Ke's army slowed down at the moment when he was more than ten kilometers away from Orondo, so that the roar of the engine was minimized.

Yu Ke had already thought that the other side would have a strong defensive position, so he did not let the helicopter attack first, using lightning tactics, but approached slowly, using self-propelled artillery to pry through the opponent's defense first, and then use helicopters, and then tanks, so that the losses would be minimized.

When the self-propelled artillery was five or six kilometers away from Orondo, it slowly climbed up the river bank, lined up on the river beach, and slowly raised the muzzle of the gun.

The coordinates of the scouts who had advanced had been reported, and the helicopter had taken off, clinging to the ice, and slowly moving along the river, waiting for the self-propelled artillery to fire.

Tanks and armored vehicles also climbed the banks of the river, ready for a surprise attack.

The Russian army was busy, not knowing that the enemy had entered the offensive position, still carrying logs, strengthening the defense, and building trenches, bunkers, and walls paved with logs outside Orondo.

Just as they were busy, there was a sudden scream in the sky. The piercing scream had reached the ear drums, and all the soldiers who had prayed that the enemy would not attack Orondo immediately grew in their heads, shouted in unison, and burrowed into the wooden bunkers.

Two hundred self-propelled guns opened fire with all their might, and the shells fired in one direction, in echelons, and launched an artillery attack on Orondo.

As the Russian troops dodged one after another, groups of shells fell with a bang.

The violent explosion made the frozen ground tremble like chaff, and in the flash of fire, wood flew in the air, and the Russian troops inside were so shocked by the violent shock wave that they vomited out of their lungs and fell directly into the bunker.

How can such a bunker block the bombardment of effective shots? Even the bunkers that were more than a meter thick of dirt were built for nothing, let alone these wooden bunkers.

In the loud bang, a passage four or five hundred meters wide was blown out, and in the middle, bunkers were scattered, trees were scattered everywhere, and the personnel were gone, or torn apart, or died in the broken bunker.

The violent shock made the hearts of the tankmen in the tank almost jump out, and the tankmen inside were not so uncomfortable that they were directly hit by the bunker and were blown to pieces.

In the loud roar, the tanks burst into flames, and the flames illuminated everything around them.

In positions that were not shelled, the Russian troops huddled in bunkers, completely stunned by this heavy shelling. In the midst of the earthquake, they didn't dare to stand up and observe, they wouldn't be able to stand.

There are also those who hold the firing port and barely look outside, but the purpose is that the fire is soaring, and there is no enemy comprehensive at all.

Under the bombardment, the self-propelled guns moved quickly, and the tanks followed, shielded by the sound of roaring, and approached Orenburg.

The helicopter had already accelerated, flying into the flickering area ahead, past the trucks, and heading straight for the battlefield.

The moment the self-propelled artillery spotted the enemy's bunkers, they stopped one after another, and aimed their guns at the bunkers one by one, aiming at the wooden walls.

In the flickering of the roaring fire, shells swooped down on those places in the panic and screams of the Russian army.

The Russian troops in the bunker were in the light, and it was not until the self-propelled artillery opened fire that they saw the enemy who was already approaching in the dark. But at this time, it was too late to load the shells and open fire, and at the same time as seeing the firelight, in the screams, one shell after another bombarded, and the wooden bunker in front of it fell apart in an instant, and the debris of the broken wood flew everywhere, and the tank was directly bombed.

The heavy shelling made the carefully prepared defense of the Russian army not even have a chance to open fire, and Jiuzi's close-range artillery bombardment was completely destroyed.

Dense shells were still falling, and the loud bangs kept rising. The passage in the middle was completely wiped out in the second round of effective shooting, so that the Russian army, who had worked hard for more than ten hours, realized that such a bunker was paper-paste.

The artillery in the city reacted at the moment of the fire of the incoming and outgoing enemy artillery, and the shells flew to the position of the self-propelled artillery in a roar.

Before their shells fell, the roar in the sky drowned out the sound of the explosion, and 200 helicopters flew over Orenburg with a roar on the ground, and while the steel ball bombs flew down, the attack planes had already locked onto the fire, and in the tom, the machine guns and Vulcan cannons opened fire at the same time.

While the self-propelled artillery roared around here, the rain of bullets and steel balls annihilated several artillery positions.

The self-propelled artillery in the distance had ceased fire, and as the planes began to bombard, the tanks whizzed into the open passage and headed for Orondo.

The battle, at this moment there was no suspense, a short artillery bombardment, destroyed the enemy's hard-built positions, intensive air strikes, so that the enemy's surviving artillery positions were not even a human figure, and when the tanks rushed into the city gates, the battle was no longer in suspense.

The armored vehicles followed, quickly following as the tanks stormed into Orondo, occupying street by street and commencing a pleasant strangulation. (To be continued......)
