Chapter 585: Encirclement

In the darkness of the night there were Russian troops, who were rushing to the armored units like a tide, and the night was their most powerful weapon. Boom, boom, tanks were constantly being wounded, the commando soldiers were exhausted, and there was not much ammunition left.

At this time, a large number of torches finally appeared in the distance, Zhang Henian and they finally caught up on bicycles, and all the soldiers of the first regiment took the lead in throwing down their bicycles, and quickly rushed into the gap according to the battle formation.

Zhang Henian hurriedly commanded the car and sent all the towed artillery to the front line, and one heavy gun after another was erected and aimed at the Russian position. Although the armored forces are sharp, after all, there is no large-caliber artillery, and they are still powerless against special fortresses, and with the addition of heavy artillery, it is completely different.

Although after a day of riding bicycles, everyone's limbs stiffened, but everyone also knew that the war was urgent, and everyone hurriedly built an artillery position regardless of fatigue, and the shells smashed towards the Russians.

The shells exploded in the dark night, and a fierce fire was more charming than the most dazzling fireworks, but each spark burned life, and the swarming Russian soldiers were blown to pieces, killed and wounded.

At this time, Zhou Zijian led the first regiment to rush to the vicinity of the tank group, and Zhang Tingshu, who was in a bitter battle, was overjoyed when he saw that the backup had finally followed.

With Zhou Zijian's help, the Russians were quickly dispersed, Zhang Tingshu got out of the tank and found Zhou Zijian in a hurry.

"Commander Zhou, have the follow-up troops followed?"

Zhou Zijian wiped a handful of blood from his face, gasped and said, "It's all up to you, what should I do next?" ”

"Of course, it's an expansion of the results!" Zhang Tingshu hurriedly said: "I have calculated, the depth of the Russian position is less than ten kilometers, and we have penetrated more than half of it. If we can't break through the line tonight, we will be besieged on three sides by the Russians, and I'm afraid that by that time, we will be in big trouble! ”

While he was talking, Zhang Henian led the follow-up troops to rush over, and when he heard Zhang Tingshu's opinion, he also agreed very much.

"I also agree, but we haven't practiced large-scale night battles of armored forces yet, so I'm afraid there will be some difficulties."

"The battlefield is changing rapidly. If everything can be prepared in advance, what else can we do with these commanders. Zhang Tingshu said confidently: "We are not prepared, and the Russians are even less prepared, and the victory is definitely ours!" ”

Zhang Henian is also hahadaxiao: "The second young master is proud, let the brothers rest immediately." Two hours later, the attack continued. ”

It's a two-hour break. But only a few people can rest. All battle tanks are replenished with ammunition and fuel. The damaged tanks also have to be repaired, the main damage of these tanks is the track, and the removal of the track shoes is one of the most difficult tasks of the tank crew, not long after a while there is a clanging sound everywhere, the tank crew rotates the hammer, the track shoes are repaired one by one.

Others were not idle either. They also have a task, since they are interspersed, they must be prepared to face attacks from both sides, and all the soldiers are gnawing on dry food on one side. While hurrying to clear the trenches.

The Russians' trenches were all along the road to block attacks from outside, while the Feng army had to build fortifications horizontally to stop the Russians from killing them from both sides. When the strength and firepower are likely to be in a weak position, a complete defense system is the most helpful person for everyone to survive, so when digging fortifications, no one dares to carry it.

Digging through the hard ground, the soldiers were like gophers, quickly digging trenches, anti-artillery holes, and carefully constructing one fire point after another.

According to the jihua that Zhang Henian had formulated in advance, the entire fortification was oval-shaped, and at the same time it was fended off by incoming enemies on both sides.

Wu Kaijie personally jumped into the trench, wielding a sapper shovel, and digging with the soldiers, his speed was not slower than that of ordinary soldiers, but while digging, he continued to command.

"Brethren, every thirty meters, there must be a large and medium-sized anti-artillery hole, on which there must be at least five meters of land, and only this thickness can hold off the heavy artillery of the Russians. At such a time, it is almost the difference between several human lives, and no one can slack off! ”

The soldiers were devoting themselves to digging fortifications, and Zhang Henian and Zhang Tingshu sat together, carefully studying the map.

"Two kilometers ahead, there is exactly a railway bridge, the Trans-Siberian Railway passes through here, the scouts have already explored, the air force bombed several times during the day, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful, let's work harder, and take this bridge in a while!" Zhang Tingshu said confidently.

Zhang Henian also agreed: "The matter of blowing up the bridge will be handed over to us, and the tank troops will disperse the surrounding Russian soldiers, and then our sappers will immediately follow and blow up the bridge." ”

After discussing it, they also took a few bites of the hard dry food, Zhang Tingshu got into the tank again, and the steel giant beast that started again let out a rumbling roar. At night, the roar of the tanks can be heard far away, and the Russians have just tasted the sharp attack of the tanks, and when they hear this sound, they all feel like they are terrified.

Under the cover of the infantry, the tank troops took the lead, crushing the Russians, the trembling Russians continued to rout, and the progress of the Feng army was still very amazing, and in the middle of the night, it finally approached the surrounding of the bridge.

It was a railway bridge and a choke point from Chita to the east, where the Russians had built strong fortifications and anti-aircraft machine guns, which had escaped during the daytime bombardment. But luck will not always be with them, and it will be their end at this time.

A tank gun was aimed at the pillbox at the bridgehead, and with a loud bang, the hard cover of the pillbox was blown off, and several Russians inside were also torn apart.

The fortifications at the head of the bridge were blown to pieces, and the follow-up sappers finally had a chance, and they rushed towards the bridge with explosives bags in their arms. They moved quickly, getting closer and closer to the middle of the bridge, and suddenly fired a volley of bullets on the opposite side, and the two soldiers fell to the ground on the spot.

The other soldiers did not hesitate and hurriedly followed, but just rushed up and were hit again. Four excellent sappers were sacrificed in a row. Zhang Henian's face suddenly became gloomy.

Suddenly, he had an idea, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to push over an abandoned carriage, and Zhang Henian looked at the bridge with a sneer.

"Hurry up, add iron plates to the front of the carriage, and then fill the compartment with more explosives bags, just push this carriage to the middle of the bridge, and then detonate it, and you can definitely hit it with one blow!"

When the soldiers heard this, they were also overjoyed, this is really a good idea. A few sappers reinforced the front of the carriage into a huge shield, then loaded the middle of the carriage with explosives and pulled out a long lead.

After everything was ready, they pushed the carriage. Rushing to the bridge, the Russians on the opposite side were still firing. The bullet hit the steel plate. It's crackling, but it doesn't work at all.

The soldiers pushed the carriage and walked step by step to the middle of the bridge, and when they saw that they had reached the predetermined position, everyone else retreated, and the soldier in charge of lighting the fuse smiled contemptuously at the opposite bank. Then he set it on fire, ran away, and when he got off the bridge, he hurriedly threw himself on the side of the road.

The flames snorted into the car. Everyone held their breath. Rumble! There was an earth-shattering loud bang that shook the mountain, and the soldiers hundreds of meters away felt a ringing in their ears, and their bodies seemed to rise and fall with the rhythm of the explosion.

When everyone went to see the situation of the bridge again, a raging fire rose into the air, followed by the sound of the bridge cracking, and in less than half a minute, the bridge collapsed, and the Trans-Siberian Railway, on which the Russians depended, was finally cut off, and from this time on, Akinskoye had become an isolated city.

In the northern summer, the dawn was very early, and at three or four o'clock, the sun had already burst out, and when the first rays of sunlight sprinkled the earth in the early morning, Zhang Tingshu's tank happened to run over a pillbox in Zuihou, and the Russians' position was successfully penetrated.

Half of their mission has been completed, and all that remains is to hold on until the Feng army wins the victory of Zuihou. Just as Zhang Tingshu let out a sigh of relief, a huge roar came from the sky.

Soon a group of fighters flew towards the morning light, and the only ones that could still appear in the air at this time were Fengjun's planes. After some fighting, some planes have been painted with stars on their fuselages. These pilots were the first lucky ones, and if they can continue to be lucky, they will hopefully become the first batch of ace pilots.

The planes skimmed the sky and spotted the five-color flags fluttering on the ground, and it was clear that the Feng army had achieved their combat objectives, and the pilots suddenly crossed a large circle in the air, as if to salute the soldiers below.

"I can finally sleep for a while!" Zhang Tingshu stretched his waist, his two red eyes, like a rabbit, this second young master had gone through a day of rapid marching, and then he had been fighting all night, he was extremely tired.

Ignoring the smell of gasoline all over his body, he curled up on the small bed in the headquarters, stretched out his hand to pull over the military coat, and was about to sleep for a while.

"Tingshu, the enemy is now, how can you sleep?" Wu Kaijie sat at the head of the bed and said with a smile: "You have to cheer up, there will be a big battle in a while!" ”

"It's just that I know there's a fierce battle, so I just need to sleep for a while." Zhang Tingshu said disapprerovingly: "Lao Wu, you should also take a rest as soon as possible, there is an air force dispatched, and the Russian reinforcements will not come so quickly, this is probably the peace of zuihou before the war, if you don't sleep, you don't know when you can sleep!" ”

After the second young master finished speaking, he put his sweaty coat on his head, and fell asleep soundly, and in less than a minute, an even small snoring sound came out.

"Let's all take a rest, and then there will be a hard fight!" Zhang Henian was no exception, enjoying a rare calm time before the war.

As Zhang Tingshu said, the Russians mobilized reinforcements and wanted to defeat the Feng army quickly, and they rushed to the road all night, and it was not far from the Feng army.

At this time, the nasty planes appeared in the air again, and the air force of the Russians had already been reimbursed on the first day of fighting, and the sky was under the control of the Feng army.

Enemy attack!

The Russians were also terrified at the sight of the plane, and they hurriedly set up machine guns while hiding on both sides of the railway. Just when the Russians were panicking, the fighters of the Feng army lowered their altitude and dropped bombs one after another, and suddenly a ball of flames rose into the air.

The bombers were not attacking the crowds, but the railway line, and several bombs fell around the railway, and the rails were all blown up. Without the railroad tracks, the Russians would not want to move troops quickly, so that Zhang Tingshu's pressure would be reduced.

After the bombers rained down the bombs, the fighters joined the revelry. They lowered their altitude, and at an altitude of several tens of meters, they swept over the heads of the Russians, and the bullets strafed them, and the Russian soldiers were constantly killed, and within ten minutes, the ground was in shambles.

Only when these planes left in a dashing manner could the Russians regroup their ranks and then go to the front line to increase their ranks. As a result, their speed was severely reduced, and they were unable to fight back just by being beaten, and the morale of these Russians continued to decline.

Having lost air supremacy, they could no longer launch an attack on the Feng army at the scheduled time. Constantly receiving bad news, Budyonny was already a little numb.

He originally thought that the Chinese army was a fish belly, and the Far East was a good time for him to make meritorious contributions, but who knew that the Far East would not let him shine in the annals of history, on the contrary, there was a possibility of disrepute.

Now that the Feng army has succeeded in cutting the Russian army in the Far East into two parts, the situation is unfavorable for them as never before, and Budyonny can do nothing but keep promising his soldiers that he may never fulfill.

"Handsome, the second young master fought a good battle, and it can be said that he won a good start!"

"Hmm!" Zhang Tinglan also nodded with satisfaction: "The plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky." Now it's up to our soldiers to work hard, and from now on, don't give me any battle reports unless they're particularly important. ”

Jiang Fangzhen suddenly frowned, and asked hesitantly: "Dashuai, the battle has reached a critical moment, how can you ignore it?" ”

"It's not that I don't care, but I can't add to the chaos, I'm responsible for strategic things, and tactical things are the commander's business, and I can't overstep my responsibilities. If you learn from Zhuge Liang, you will bow down to everything, it is purely to find trouble for yourself! ”

"Haha, that's what I said, but who can really let go, the handsome man is really open-minded."

The Feng army had already launched an offensive, and the 3rd and 6th divisions rushed towards the southeast of Akinskoye like two iron pincers.

Jiang Dengxuan of the northern line also led his troops to successfully break Nebuchu, and then along the railway line, he killed the northeast of Akinskoye, and a net of heaven and earth had been quietly unfolded.

The rumbling sound of artillery and hail of bombs quickly drowned Akinskoye in the smoke of gunfire. (To be continued......)
