In fact, Sukhoi's disbelief was unnecessary, because Nikitin's order was correct, and the I-5 fighter was not the opponent of the Japanese Type 91 and Type 92 fighters, and the I-5K used on the aircraft carrier was no match for the Japanese fighter because of the enhanced body mechanism, the weight further increased, and the maneuverability of the guide was further reduced.

Moreover, when the I-15 and I-16 have already seized air supremacy, the HNA I-5K is even more useless, and it is already very generous for the Air Force to pick up a little reconnaissance and ground attack mission. In fact, in the eyes of the Air Force, there is no need for the Navy to make a move, and the Air Force alone is enough to deal with the Japanese.

"Our HNA is not here to watch the show, we will attack the ground if we attack the ground, we can be brilliant!" Sukhoi yelled angrily at his young man.

In order to prove themselves, in order to prove that naval aviation is also good, the young men of Hainan Airlines are all out and frantically attack a Japanese target on the ground, especially their commander Sukhoi personally went into battle, and when Nikitin learned the news, he was so angry that he almost overturned the table.

The lieutenant general took the lead, who has seen it? Anyway, Hainan Airlines' morale was greatly boosted, and the pilots were as excited as hungry wolves at about four o'clock in the afternoon in the zoo, which made the devil suffer. For example, the search team led by the 23rd Division's search team captain Dong 800 Zang Shaozuo, this reconnaissance detachment composed of 200 cavalry and 90 armored soldiers was originally going to sneak into the upper reaches of the Hellasten River for reconnaissance and prepare for the subsequent counteroffensive of the 23rd Division.

Taking advantage of the darkness, they made their way forward and approached the advance of the 1st Tank Division very smoothly. Just when they were hiding on the mound and secretly watching the movements of the 1st Tank Division. Sukhoi swooped down from the sky with a strong wind.

Maybe for the 1st Tank Division on the ground. The disguise of the East Eight Hundred Treasures is very good, but for Sukhoi in the sky, it is really clear at a glance. Without hesitation, Sukhoi lowered the nose of the fuselage and began to dive, and the three machine guns on the fuselage were even more firing, and the search detachment along the eastern 800 treasures fired in a circle.

At that moment, the queue of Dong Babaizang jumped for a while, and more than a dozen devil soldiers lost their lives in this round of strafing, and this was just the beginning. Sukhoi's wingmen immediately followed suit, and even the 1st Tank Division spotted Higashi-800 Zang, and a few minutes later, mortar shells fell on the heads of the search detachment along with bullets from aviation machine guns.

"Don't retreat! Those who run away are all dead, dead! ”

Dong Babaizang brandished his sword and roared at the fleeing puppet Manchukuo guides and servants, but his roar did not have any effect, and several traitors really ran faster than rabbits.

Bang bang bang!

Higashi-Yabaizo pulled out the Southern Type 14 pistol and pulled the trigger without hesitation, and after a few shots, several guides were either killed on the spot or had their legs broken and crawled on the ground with difficulty.

Higashibaizo snorted and put away his pistol. Drawing his sword again, he rushed to the guide who was struggling to crawl and cut off his head with a single slash.

"This is what happens when you are a deserter!" Dong Babaizang said viciously.

The remaining few puppet armies looked at the murderous East Eight Hundred Tibet. For the first time, they began to regret being traitors, and for the first time, they realized how murderous the devil was.

"Machine gun ready, aim at enemy aircraft, put!"

Dong Yabaizang calmly pointed at Sukhoi in the air with his sword, not only did not give the order to retreat, but was ready to fight with the plane, I have to say that the fanatical militarists are unreasonable.

However, the Taisho 11 light machine gun is really quite improvised, and there are not a few machine guns in Higashi-800 Tibet, and its firepower density is so low that it can't tickle Sukhoi, in fact, Higashi-800 is acting more like emboldening himself and trying to scare Sukhoi away.

However, Sukhoi was not frightened, he dared to bomb warships single-handedly, and he carried out countless combat missions, how could a few crooked tricks scare him. In fact, Sukhoiri ignored the harassment of the enemy's machine guns, adjusted his course on his own, and shot from the best angle again and again, each time taking at least a few devils' lives until all the bullets were fired.

By the time Sukhoi and his wingman reluctantly left, less than half of the search detachment in the East 800 Tibetan was left, and they were also facing the encirclement and suppression of the forward troops of the 1st Tank Division.

"Shaozuo, let's go in first, and if we continue to fight, we won't be able to complete the task assigned by the division commander!"

In fact, this is very nonsense, from the beginning of the exposure of the search team, it is impossible for Dong Babaizang to complete the task, and even as long as he starts to "turn in", there is only one result, and it is lucky enough to be able to pick up his life and escape back to his hometown. To put it bluntly, this is just for the sake of good face.

But it's a pity that Dong Babaizang is a faceless or face-saving person, he is simply a tendon, from the beginning he looked down on the Red Army, thinking that under the powerful blow of the Japanese Imperial Army, Lucia Ghost Animal only has the share of holding his head and running away, when should the Imperial Army run away?

"Yaga!" Dong Yabaizang slipped the two big mouths of the man who spoke, and ordered through gritted teeth: "Keep fighting, there are only the Great Japanese Samurai who are broken by the jade, and there is no Great Japanese Samurai who escaped!" ”

So can the East Eight Hundred Tibets withstand it? To tell the truth, they couldn't stand it at all, especially when the BT-2 tanks and T-26 tanks rumbled over, the devil soldiers didn't seem to have many options, at first they used machine guns and rifles to shoot frantically at the enemy tanks, but it didn't work at all, and then they tried to attack the tank with grenadiers, but the muzzle velocity of the grenadiers was too low, and this thing was not suitable for attacking moving targets, and naturally it had no effect.

Seeing that the tank was getting closer and closer, and the artillery and machine guns on the turret were turning their troops on their backs, Dong Babaizang couldn't help it, and picked up an explosive bag and prepared to go to the jade crush. But before he could run out, he was grabbed by the soldier Cao Ghost Head Zhengyang, and this "big man" (relatively speaking) soldier Cao snatched the explosive bag from Dong Babaizang's arms. yelled, "Captain." You can't die. I got it! ”

After saying that, this very thorough cannon fodder who was brainwashed by bushido held the explosives bag and strode towards the galloping tank, which was really a bit of a majestic and high-spirited meaning. However, it is a pity that this man's movements are too stupid and mechanical, and before he has run twenty meters, he was beaten into a sieve by a machine gun, and after shouting very artistically: "Long live the Great Japanese Empire", he hung up.

Higashi-Babaizang wiped a handful of tears. He said very firmly: "The ghost head king is good, and you must take him as an example......

The power of the example is really endless, and under the encouragement of the East Eight Hundred Treasures, Private Takemoto jumped out of the trench, and the ghost head Zhengyang is almost a mold carved out of the action, anyway, it doesn't look like it's going to blow up the tank, but like it's about to hug the tank, and naturally this one is also beaten into honeycomb coal.

Suddenly, Dong Babaizang's face was a little unbearable, although his subordinates were brave enough, but this really lacked wisdom. If everyone plays like this, it is equivalent to dying in vain.

"Roundabout. Roundabout understand! Dong Babaizang jumped to his feet and scolded.

Finally, the third jumper out of the trench Yoshikawa Shiro finally learned to be smart, and instead of facing the tank's guns and guns, he "committed crimes against the wind" but took a detour from the side, using the cover of the terrain to skillfully approach a T-26, with a loud bang, Yoshikawa Shiro turned into a blood mist, and the T-26 also turned into a big fireball of Mercedes-Benz.

"Yay! Quick, do it again! ”

With the order of Higashi-800 Tibet, three or four Japanese soldiers who were not afraid of death jumped out of the foxhole at the same time, and approached the galloping tank group like Yoshikawa Shiro.

Under the offensive of meat bullets that the devil soldiers were not afraid of death, the vanguard of the 1st Tank Division began to hesitate and slowly retreated, because the Red Army had not seen such a deadly way of fighting, and the loss of tanks in just ten minutes exceeded the sum of the past five days, and they did not want to find a way to contain the meat bullet tactics of the devil soldiers, and the losses would be very large if they fought hard with tanks. After all, whether it is BT-1 or T-26, it is much more valuable than the life of a devil! It's not cost-effective to fight so hard!

"Let the artillery suppress the enemy, and let the infantry go together!"

Soon the commander of the 10th Battalion of the 1st Battalion of the 1st Tank Division and the 1st Company of the 1st Tank Division. Leonidevich. Sokolov made the right decision, and instead of continuing to let his tanks charge, he asked the 1st company and 1st platoon of the 2nd battalion of the 30th regiment that were fighting with them to coordinate the attack.

However, what Sokolov did not expect was that his arrangement could not be carried out at all: "Company commander, Comrade Grigory said that his young man could not take care of us for the time being, and the 3rd Company was also attacked by the enemy, and according to the assignment of the battalion headquarters, they must give priority to supporting the 3rd Company. ”

Sokolov raised his binoculars and looked at the third company, and sure enough, they were also fighting with the enemy, and the boys in the platoon of the 30th regiment were in the line of fire, and it was impossible to help them for the time being. Sokolov was very depressed about this situation, his company was all tanks, and he was very imposing and powerful when he charged, but without the help of the infantry, they could not hold their positions and seize them. In fact, the lack of infantry support in the tank units in the previous days of fighting has been exposed, causing many unnecessary losses and sacrifices.

"Give me the battalion commander...... Battalion commander, I'm Sokolov, the enemy's resistance is unusually ferocious, I lack infantry support here, I can't destroy the enemy with tanks alone! ”

But Sokolov's battalion commander was also very helpless, he did not have surplus infantry at hand, in fact, the motorized infantry regiment assigned to the 1st Tank Division had been split, except for leaving a battalion and a regiment directly under the regiment as a reserve for the division headquarters, the other two battalions were divided equally between the 10th and 11th regiments, but for the tank troops, the infantry support was still too much and too little, and a few Japanese counterattacks made the pure tank troops very wolfy.

In addition, the motorized infantry assigned to the tank unit also faces a lot of problems, compared with the tank unit with good off-road ability, the off-road ability of wheeled trucks is very limited, and most of the time the motorized infantry can only use two legs to catch up with the tank's tracks. Often tired the infantry half to death, and the combat effect is terrible. Anyway, the motorized infantry are complaining and asking the superiors to send them better cars, otherwise there is really no way to fight this battle.

Of course, such a request is basically impossible to grant, not only because the equipment department does not have the kind of vehicles that the infantry wants. Even if there is. This is at the juncture of a fierce battle. How to go about changing clothes? In fact, the infantry also complained bitterly, just to let the superiors know that they were tired, just to set a foreshadowing for the new vehicles in the future.

Moreover, the clever Red Army soldiers also thought of a temporary solution to the problem, that is, to let the infantry sit on tanks and attack together, although this local method is indeed not a fundamental solution to the problem, but it is also possible to make do with it temporarily. Even if the risk of exposure to enemy fire is high for the "naked" infantry, it is better than chasing tracks with 11 lanes, isn't it?

However, this only solved the problem that the infantry worked too hard. This local method cannot solve the problem of the lack of infantry support in the tank units of the First Mechanized Infantry Army, and this is a fundamental problem that cannot be solved without adjusting the establishment.

At this time, Rokossovsky remembered Li Xiaofeng's warning before departure, and the old superior was not right at all, the tank troops without infantry support are also fish in water, and they cannot give full play to their combat effectiveness at all.

"When will the 82nd Infantry Division arrive on the battlefield?" Rokossovsky urged.

His chief of staff replied: "According to Comrade Blyukhel, the division has just gotten off the train and is in transit to the battlefield, and optimistically estimates that it will take at least three more days before it can be put into battle!" ”

This answer made Rokossovsky frown. It was he who had previously assured Blyukhel that even if the 82nd Infantry Division was not in place. The 1st Mechanized Infantry Army was also able to successfully complete its combat mission. And now, he broke his promise.

As the commander of the First Army, Rokossovsky knew very well that he had to solve this problem as much as possible, otherwise the appearance of the troops would be even more miserable after a full-scale engagement with the Japanese army.

"Send two motorized infantry regiments of the 1st Motorized Division to the 1st and 2nd Motorized Divisions, try to make the ratio of tanks to infantry for frontal assault as one-to-one, and send a telegram to Comrade Blyukhel asking him to support one or two more infantry regiments for us......"

The marshal was not very happy when Rokossovsky's request was placed on Blyukhel's desk, and since the beginning of the war he had been observing the appearance of the 1st Mechanized Infantry Army, he had always wanted to see if Tukhachevsky's mechanized infantry was really so miraculous.

And now, judging from the table in battle, it seems that the mechanized infantry is exaggerated, and the entire First Army of the Mechanized Infantry looks very chaotic in the battle, and is forced to retreat after a period of frequent slamming and fighting.

In particular, it had only been a few days since the war began, and Rokossovsky asked him for assistance, is it really so fragile for mechanized infantry?

"Did Comrade Konstantin say why he needed reinforcements?" Blyukhel asked, frowning.

"Comrade Konstantin believed that there was a problem with the distribution of his troops, there were too many tanks, and too few infantry to support the battle, and the guide could not hold even if he could break through the enemy's position in the battle ahead...... In his words, he is willing to exchange two tank regiments for two infantry regiments with you! ”

Blyukhel smiled, he was not sure if the mechanized infantry was not good because of what Rokossovsky said, but Rokossovsky was able to take the initiative to adjust, instead of stupidly doing nothing, which showed that he was still a qualified army commander. And judging from the tone of Rokossovsky's speech, the problem of the First Army of Mechanized Infantry is not so strict, it should belong to the grinding period of new tactics to the battlefield, and it can be observed how the mechanized infantry will be.

"I approved his request, to transfer two infantry regiments from the reserve to him, well, don't forget to tell Comrade Sù Konstantin, he now owes me two tank regiments!"

Blyukhel can still joke, which also shows that he is still relatively optimistic about the situation, otherwise with his temper, I am afraid that he will directly rush into Rokossovsky's military headquarters, scold him, and even directly take over Rokossovsky's command.

"How's the Cavalry progressing?" Blyukhel asked again.

"The 4th Cavalry Division is trying to attack the enemy 23rd Division from behind, and the results of today's fire reconnaissance will be reported to you at a later date. As for the 1st Cavalry Division and the 2nd Cavalry Division, as of 16 o'clock, there was little progress, they were blocked by the enemy's 7th Division, and in the face of the enemy's strong defensive line, they were still waiting for the support of artillery units......"

"Tsk......"

The little smile on Blyukhel's face disappeared cleanly, and it was not a good sign that two cavalry divisions attacked an infantry division that had hastily built up positions, and after two days of fighting, there was not much progress.

A haze flashed across Blyukhel's face and he continued: "What about the enemy's reinforcements?" ”

"Hailar's enemy 14th Brigade is approaching the battlefield, although the air force has done its best to attack them, but the enemy is extremely tenacious, and judging from aerial reconnaissance, the bombing effect of the air force is not good, neither TB-1 nor TB-3 is suitable for such a mission."

Blyukhel actually heard Nikitin's complaint that the front-line aviation lacked dive bombers and medium bombers and could not accurately hit ground targets. The bombing of TB-1 and TB-3 could only serve as a harassment.

Just when Blyukhel was wondering whether to mention to the Military Commission and then transfer some of the attack planes from other military regions, his intelligence staff officer said: "Comrade commander, I must also remind you that according to aerial reconnaissance, the enemy's tank units are approaching the battlefield, and if nothing else, they will soon join the enemy's 7th Division, and the pressure on Comrade Timoshenko's side will be even greater!" ”

This is bad news! Blyukhel lamented in his heart, but he reacted immediately and personally dialed Timoshenko...... (To be continued......)

PS: Bow and thank you to the old students, the fat man to fly and fly, to make the ground fly, the armored train, hzwangdd, the glorious charter and Comrade Juventus!
