On the plain, about 70 kilometers away from Ufa, thousands of horses were galloping, and about a cavalry division was galloping in the direction of Ufa.

The cavalrymen who straddled the horses were wearing military uniforms with Soviet and Russian characteristics, carrying sabers and horse pistols on their backs, and they were full of energy and superb riding skills.

The 7th Cavalry Division is the closest cavalry unit to Ufa, and it is also the only cavalry unit in Soviet Russia that can rush to the Ufa battlefield in a short period of time.

As a cavalry unit, the 7th Cavalry Division is not good at attacking fortified positions, but when it comes to long-distance raids or thousands of miles of robbery, I am afraid there is no more suitable than them.

Since the outbreak of the Russian Civil War, the Seventh Cavalry Division has not only accumulated rich experience in the battle with the Intervening Army and the White Army, but also relied on its strong combat effectiveness and made many achievements.

Although on the surface, the two troops are considered to be of equal rank, but as the main force in the cavalry, the Seventh Cavalry Division has an innate advantageous position, and the table is naturally much stronger. This time, the two cavalry divisions were dispatched, and it was obvious that the two divisions were dispatched together, but the 7th Cavalry Division was a little faster than the 11th Cavalry Division, and one of the reasons was that it was too proud that the 7th Cavalry Division was unwilling to lag half a step behind the other division, and even unwilling to be tied with the other side.

Fortunately, this battle was not very difficult, and it could even be described as easy, and the generals of the cavalry divisions who knew the inside story also knew that the main difficulty of this task was how to catch up with and intercept Kolchak's troops. Therefore, the mentality is inevitably a little lighter...

In the forward position of the cavalry division, the commander of the cavalry division, Antonov, was galloping forward at a not very fast speed, accompanied by his staff officers and several soldiers. At this time, a very young officer suddenly rode his horse and galloped in front of Antonov and others.

"Comrade division commander...", bringing the horse in front of Antonov, the young officer saluted Antonov.

"What's the matter?"

"The position in front of us, a few tens of kilometers away, is Ufa, and now friendly forces are attacking there, what should we do?"

Hearing the young officer say this, he looked at him expectantly. Antonov, of course, knew exactly what was going on in his heart.

However, at this moment, facing the expectant eyes of his subordinates, Antonov was helpless. "The order from above is for us to intercept the fleeing white bandits. It's not for us to attack Ufa...", Antonov glanced sideways at the staff officers beside him. "Go, deliver my orders, bypass Ufa. Straight in the direction of the white bandits' retreat! ”

"Yes!"

The staff officer said loudly. Then he called a few soldiers and ordered the order in the cavalry group―――――― which was probably the most troublesome place for the cavalry. After all, the ranks of the infantry were relatively neat and obvious, and it was easier to convey orders.

But cavalry is different, although it has its own ranks, but you can't expect to train horses like people. At least that's not the case for most horses, so the queue is naturally a bit messy.

In a situation where there is chaos all around, sometimes it is not to say that it is to convey orders. It's already a matter of luck not to even get lost...

――――――――――――――――――――

Hearing such an order from Antonov, the young officer's heart was naturally a little disappointed. But Antonov didn't pay any attention to him. After all, cavalry is not used to siege cities, let alone to storm enemy positions.

What's more, under the orders from above, it was clear that their task was to intercept the fleeing Kolchak, and nothing else was under their control. Now that he has gone to Ufa to join the team, what should Kolchak do?

If Kolchak is allowed to escape, even if their cavalry division takes Ufa independently, I am afraid it will not be able to make up for their sins...

Therefore, it is important to obey orders.

What's more, the internal methods of dealing with those who do not obey orders in Soviet Russia are usually very cruel. Even if it has not reached the point of being at this stage, it is definitely not a taste that Antonov is willing to taste ...

On the orders of Antonov, soon the 7th Cavalry Division began to gallop towards a road bypassing Ufa. As for the Ufa side, separated by a distance of dozens of kilometers, even machine guns may not be able to transmit the sound here.

To those artillery ...

I don't know if it's a psychological delusion, Antonov always felt as if he heard the sound of artillery ...

On the other hand, at this time Antonov did not seem to know that near Ufa, a flock of 'iron birds' was flying in the sky, looking for their traces...

More than 3,000 meters above Ufa, Wang Yuqing and more than 300 other fighters and bombers were patrolling the sky over Ufa in a loose formation.

"Commander, why don't we just find a place to throw bombs on the battlefield..."

Sitting next to Wang Yuqing, the chief of staff said loudly.

Four engines, of course, brought a very large amount of power to the bomber, but the sound brought by the four engines was just as unbearable. At the very least, when people are in an airplane, they usually need to rely on yelling when communicating, and even if they roar, sometimes they can't hear clearly...

"That's not going to work..."Hearing the chief of staff's words, Wang Yuqing shook his head violently. The above order is for us to find out the reinforcements from Soviet Russia, and then talk about other things, we must first find out the interception force and clean it up, and we must not attack the Russian troops before that..."As he spoke, Wang Yuqing poked his head out of the cabin, and then looked in the direction of the ground.

I saw that at this time, the periphery of Ufa was already full of gunsmoke, and the ground was full of craters and dust columns smashed out when the shells fell. In addition, although it was at an altitude of several thousand meters, Wang Yuqing could faintly hear some gunshots...

It is not surprising that this time Kolchak in order to hold Ufa. However, a large number of firearms were ordered from China, especially light and heavy machine guns. Although this time, in order to evacuate Ufa, Kolchak took a lot of weapons and equipment. But even so, the equipment of the troops left in Ufa to be responsible for the broken rear is still very strong―――――― it is not surprising, after all, is it a broken rear army, if the equipment is not good, if it is broken through by the enemy, then in the end, the whole army will be annihilated.

It can be said that the equipment of the troops after the break. Even compared to Kolchak's personal troops, there was no difference. If I have to talk about the difference, I'm afraid it's heavy equipment...

But if not. I'm afraid they won't be able to carry it in Ufa for so long.

You must know that at this moment, the number of Soviet troops on the outskirts of Ufa is not small.

Ordinary infantry weapons, such as light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns and shotguns, may not be as good as the White Army. But in terms of artillery, armored forces, as well as aviation units. The gap between them is inevitably too far, and without these weapons and equipment, the White Army would not have been able to hold out until now...

――――――――――――――――――――

Seeing that his chief of staff didn't say anything more, Wang Yuqing pursed his lips, which had already dried, and then said to the driver in front. "Continue the search, and be sure to find out the reinforcements from Soviet Russia!"

"Understood!" Hearing Wang Yuqing's order, the pilot nodded, and then fiddled with the joystick...

After preparing for such a long time. Wang Yuqing: It is not for nothing that they will be dispatched now. The reason was that the secret service in Moscow had learned from Lenin that Soviet Russia was planning to send two cavalry divisions to intercept Kolchak's department. Prevent him from escaping into China...

At present, almost all of Kolchak's elite troops are in Ufa, and only a small number of elites are following him, if the cavalry of Soviet Russia suddenly appears at this time, I am afraid that those people in Kolchak may really collapse.

After all, in addition to the troops, there were more than a million civilians who left with Kolchak.

Although the power of civilians cannot be underestimated in many cases, with the development of the times, the power of civilians has become weaker and weaker. If those two cavalry divisions were really allowed to enter, I am afraid that Kolchak's troops would really have the possibility of collapse, and it would not be ordinary bad if that really happened...

Therefore, the higher authorities gave them orders to dispatch and strike at the interception troops sent by Soviet Russia.

According to the information obtained by Cai Yi, the opponent this time is probably the appearance of two cavalry divisions, with the ability of bomber troops and fighter units, it is basically impossible to say that these two cavalry divisions have been completely annihilated, but if it is just for them to suffer heavy losses...

Just when Wang Yuqing was thinking about it, the chief of staff sitting next to him suddenly said to Wang Yuqing. "Regiment commander, look, are those the cavalry divisions of Soviet Russia?" he said and patted Wang Yuqing on the shoulder, obviously trying to focus his attention.

After noticing the words of the chief of staff, Wang Yuqing followed his line of sight, and soon saw that in the position of the sky, a large number of cavalry were trying to bypass Ufa and go straight to the evacuated Ufa soldiers and civilians―――――― and now the team of Ufa refugees leaving has formed a long queue outside Ufa City, and anyone can find almost all of them as long as they follow them.

If the cavalry of Soviet Russia really finds it, even if it is just by looking for it, they can find everyone.

"Good!" Following the gaze of the chief of staff, Wang Yuqing was suddenly overjoyed. "It's considered to have found these turtle grandsons, and gave everyone an order to bomb the target!"

"Yes!"

――――――――――――――――――――

Wang Yuqing was the commander of the bomber regiment of the Ural Military District, and at the same time the commander of the only bomber regiment. It's not that Cai Ye doesn't want to get more of these formations for himself, in fact, Cai Ye still attaches great importance to the bomber, a new weapon―――――― after this thing is in service, it has formed a group of hundreds of bombers, and has performed a scene of indiscriminate bombing in front of Cai Ye and some generals...

Although on paper, a hundred bombers are dispatched once, whether it is to reload ammunition, fuel, or landing, take-off, overhaul, etc., it will take a considerable amount of time, and during this time, the artillery may have fired N shells, and the density of fire on both sides cannot be compared at all.

But in reality, the power of the bomber is absolutely impossible to ignore.

After all, the weight of a shell for a 210mm heavy gun is only 120 kilograms. A bomber, on the other hand, can carry a one-ton flight jet.

And in the case of artillery shells, it is impossible to use all the explosives for killing. And taking into account the bore pressure and other problems, the shell itself also needs to be very thick, which invisibly wastes part of the charge space, and the result is that don't look at the shell is very heavy, is it actually powerful...

You know, the bomb comes out of the shape. The rest can be used to contain anti-personnel explosives, and even if the two are of the same importance, the lethality is much higher than that of artillery shells.

Not to mention the bomber's range of 600 km. The combat radius is more than 200 km. In this era, no artillery gun could fire more than this distance, except for the Paris cannon made by the Germans, not even the main guns of the most advanced battleships.

As for building a few more Parisian cannons or something...

Honestly. This thing is more than shocking. It's hard to say what else it does.

The imbalance in the cost performance, and the efficiency is not very good, plus the fact that it always loves to go wrong, the number of people who need to wait on the side, and the cost, etc., except for a few people on the Ministry of Defense, the rest of the people are not interested in this so-called Paris cannon at all.

Even if you are interested, it is entirely because of the man's desire for cannons―――――― big ship cannon...

But actually. Those wise generals always really pay attention to bombers...

Here's the problem. The cost of this new H-19 bomber is too high, and it is unimaginably high compared with those fighters that cost only tens of thousands of dollars. In this way, even if Cai Yi likes this new weapon very much, it is useless. After all, the cost issue is something that every government needs to consider, in addition, you must know that the army is now under the name of the army, in other words, the more bombers are equipped, the more the army's budget is divided.

At present, there are still many army divisions waiting to change equipment, if too many resources are invested in this, I am afraid that other army officers will have opinions―――――― Yan Shao plans to let the army aviation set up a separate army, this is not a secret in the army, at least not in the upper echelons of the army, as the upper echelon of the upper echelons, of course Cai Ye also knows this.

Although Cai Ye is very good in terms of character and personality, he knows that the people of the army aviation will eventually become another branch of the army that competes with them for funds, and he still has to find a way to invest the funds that originally belonged to the army from the limited funds to another person who will become a competitor sooner or later, which is too stupid...

So...

However, these are not important in front of him, knowing that it is not important to Wang Yuqing who is sitting in the cabin, for him, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with those Soviet and Russian cavalry below...

――――――――――――――――――――

Under the reminder of the chief of staff, Wang Yuqing soon spotted the Soviet Russian cavalry moving on the ground.

After discovering the target, Wang Yuqing immediately became excited, after all, this was their first real combat mission. In the past, although they did not carry out many tasks, most of them were training tasks, and it can be said that there were no actual combat missions at all, and the significance of this operation to them can be imagined.

Soon, under the order of Wang Yuqing, more than a hundred bombers in the sky, surrounded by the same number of fighters, flew towards the sky above the Soviet Russian cavalry division.

At the same time, Antonov and the others on the ground are not blind, so many planes suddenly appeared in the sky, of course it is impossible for them not to see it, but at this time they are on the plain, and there is no place to hide at all ...

"Hell, where the hell did these planes come from..."

With such a big scolding, Antonov quickly made a wise decision.

"Pass on my orders, let the whole division be dispersed on the scale of the regiment, and the regiment on the scale of the battalion..." No matter where those planes in the sky came from, Antonov could feel the deep malice carried by the other side. In the case of the opponent's malicious intentions, it is almost an act of seeking death to continue to let the troops gather in a group, so the only way is to spread the troops, so that no matter what the opponent's attack is, fewer casualties can be guaranteed...

It's just that...

Although Antonov's orders were issued in a timely manner, the herald system of this era was very backward, even when issuing scattered orders...

What's more, in the past, they had never been attacked from the air, and they didn't know how to face the situation in front of them, and the result was that under Antonov's orders, although some things were wrong and began to disperse according to the order, the remaining troops were in chaos.

And before the officers of the various units could solve the chaos, Wang Yuqing and his bomber formation had already come to the sky above the 7th Cavalry Division...

Looking at the chaotic Soviet Russian cavalry below, Wang Yuqing sneered, but he didn't have any good impression of these red elements Wang Yuqing.

Therefore, after making sure that all the bombers had arrived above the target, Wang Yuqing directly ordered. "Start bombing!"

"Yes!"

Following Wang Yuqing's order, the bombardier pressed the button to drop the bomb. With the press of the button, the bomb magazine in the belly of the bomber quickly opened slowly, and then, one by one, the bombs fell rapidly from the sky like a free fall...

At the same time, other bombers launched bombing campaigns...

But after a while, hundreds of aerial bombs fell on the heads of the 7th Cavalry Division... (To be continued......)
