"Expected! The Soviet army could not resist and had to withdraw, otherwise, it would be flesh and blood against tanks, and the Soviets were not so stupid! Tang Qiuli, who received the report, said lightly.

With three tank brigades and more than 1,000 tanks, he assaulted the temporary field fortifications of the Soviet army, and if he still fought like a lukewarm battle without the threat of artillery fire and was blocked by the Soviet infantry, Battle's years of fighting on the European battlefield would be in vain.

However, Zhao Yuhe's next report made Tang Qiuli nervous, "Division commander, Kulun ground air command reported that the fighter group commanded by Commander Le is in a fierce battle with the Soviet aircraft group, and there are about 460 bombers and more than 200 fighters The Soviet aircraft group is rapidly approaching the battlefield sky!" In about twenty minutes, we can attack our ground forces! ”

Tang Qiuli's fists clenched, the infantry of the left and right flank assault groups had already fought with the Soviet troops at close range, the distance between the positions of the two sides was less than two kilometers, the Soviet bomber group, did not dare to drop the bomb, you can not worry, not to mention, there are also light and heavy machine guns and anti-tank guns, thousands of anti-air firing fire groups, Soviet bomber groups, do not dare to dive bombing.

However, Battle's tank group, but in a frontal attack up to dozens of kilometers wide, has not yet attacked the second line of Soviet positions, the tanks exposed in the wilderness are the best targets for bombers, the commander of the Soviet air formation, must have also seen this, did not take into account, will attack desperately!

It would be good if there was a group of Le Yiqin's fighters, even if it was two regiments, he didn't have to worry about it like this, but Tang Qiuli knew that Le Yiqin's group of fighters. is fighting bloodily, unable to separate, if possible, with Le Yiqin's temper, he will never let go of a Soviet plane!

Tang Qiuli let go of his fist, his eyes narrowed, and he said in a calm tone: "Order, directly under the Air Defense Brigade of the Corps, the Kulun Air Defense Brigade, and the Saiyinshanda Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment, attack the Soviet bomber group, and be sure to protect the air safety of the armored group." Order, Battle to speed up the assault and drive the Soviet army to the north! ”

At the beginning of the battle, in just over 20 minutes, General Kurygin experienced the torment of great joy and sorrow. It was learned that the high command had sent more than 2,000 combat aircraft to cover the breakthrough of its own troops. Avoid the fate of total annihilation. It can be seen from this that the troops of the Transcaucasian Military District occupy a very important position in the minds of Comrade Stalin, otherwise they would not have invested such a large amount of money. It's a joy.

He was taken aback by the sudden killing of more than 1,000 tanks of the independent division, and the battle lasted for two or three days, and it was all infantry and artillery. How did so many tanks pop up?

General Kurygin knew that the so-called fortifications built by his troops were just temporarily dug trenches, which could block the shooting of infantry weapons, but could not block the bombardment of artillery shells, let alone the assault of tanks, "That sinister and cunning Chinese, how many hole cards do you still have, and they have not been revealed?" He lamented in his heart.

Tang Qiu's endless means and irregularities of attack methods not only made General Kurygin tired of coping, but also frightened, and learned that the group of planes that came to the rescue was intercepted by the aviation of the independent division in the airspace outside the battlefield, which made him feel shocked, thinking that the previous scene had been staged again, and when he saw his own group of planes flying over the battlefield, he was overjoyed.

In fact, on the current ground battlefield, General Kulygin's order is somewhat redundant, and the frontal attacking troops, led by the three tank brigades of Battle, accompanied by the infantry of the three brigades directly under the corps, have already pressed the Soviet troops to retreat step by step, and the troops in the front line have been defeated, leading the troops behind, and they are also unstable, and the entire Transcaucasian Military District has begun a disorderly retreat of more than 100,000 troops.

On the battlefield of Outer Mongolia, Lieutenant General Jonasov, who commanded all the air force units, led a mixed group of bombers and fighters, and flew over the battlefield, and saw the crux of the problem at a glance; on the ground, more than 1,000 tanks of the independent division attacked the advancing tanks at high speed, and the dust raised covered the sky and the sun, which was the biggest threat to Kuregin's troops, and the two legs of the infantry could not outrun the tracks of the tanks.

Let the armored clusters of the independent division pursue, and when they reach the south bank of the Sejingge River, there are not many people left in the troops of the Transcaucasian Military District, "Order, bomber formations, immediately start bombing the armored clusters of the independent division, fighter formations, and strike at the ground fire points of the troops of the independent division!" At the same time, pay attention to attacking the infantry of the separate division, "Lieutenant General Jonasov ordered.

Lieutenant General Jonasov did not pay too much attention to the bomber formation's attack on the tank column of the independent division, this is a battle with basically no suspense, the bomber is the nemesis of the tank, the heavy aerial bomb, the tank that can destroy the infantry weapons, the light yì is torn apart, become a pile of scrap metal.

The Soviet bomber formation, formed several echelons, began to enter the bombing channel in turn, and at this moment, on the ground, suddenly burst out a little spark, blue smoke, and countless anti-aircraft shells, roaring straight into the sky, in the sky, weaving an impermeable fire net.

After receiving the order from the division commander, the air defense units kept holding back and waited for the battle, and the front was lively, the guns and artillery were firing in unison, and the tank motors shook the sky.

The Soviet army's mixed aircraft group finally appeared in the field of vision, equipped with the "Sky Eye" artillery aiming radar, the anti-aircraft artillery group had already locked on the radar, locked on their respective targets, with the order of the commander of the anti-aircraft artillery group, the meteor-like anti-aircraft shells accurately found the target, the first echelon of Soviet bomber groups, one head into the fire net, the incident happened suddenly, and it was too late to even change course.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The anti-aircraft shells that exploded at a fixed distance blew out black smoke balls, scattering thousands of whistling metal fragments into the sky, and the Soviet bombers that crashed into the fire net were either blown into pieces in the air, or smoked and caught fire all over their bodies, screaming and piercing to the ground, and more than 100 Soviet bombers disappeared into the air.

"Ground anti-aircraft fire!" Lieutenant General Jonasov exclaimed, "Attention to all bomber formations, immediately climb in height, avoid ground anti-aircraft fire, escort fighter groups, and immediately destroy the anti-aircraft fire of the independent division!" He ordered.

The Soviet fighter group, relying on its speed and flexibility, swooped down on the antiaircraft artillery positions of the air defense units of the independent division, but they did not please them, and the antiaircraft machine guns and heavy machine guns sprayed strings of scorching metal jets, forming a dense low-altitude firepower network with thousands of bullets, forcing the Soviet fighters not to dare to enter the dive strafing position, and hurriedly climbed desperately to avoid the bullets that were as dense as flying locusts.

Not only that, those Soviet fighter pilots who were not very quick with their hands and feet, who were a little slow to react, or who were eager to make meritorious contributions, saw a string of fire slippers rushing towards them, and before they had time to dodge, the fighters were beaten into a sieve by the rain of bullets.

In the first round, the Soviet bomber group failed to throw a bomb into Battle's armored cluster, the conventional evasion action of the Soviet bomber group failed to escape the tracking of the "Sky Eye" artillery sight radar, one by one anti-aircraft shells, as if they had eyes, chased the Soviet bombers, and it was a burst of bomber wreckage that exploded all over the sky, and at the same time, the Soviet fighters were all over the sky, not to mention strafing, and they were lucky not to be hit by crazy anti-aircraft shells!

"The bombing can't be carried out!" This is the painful conclusion that Lieutenant General Jonasov has come to the conclusion that the ground anti-aircraft guns themselves have not seen before, as the deputy commander of the Air Force of the Don Military District, I don't know how many times the air-ground confrontation exercises are carried out every year, and the relationship between ground anti-aircraft fire and aircraft is the relationship between spears and shields, and in most cases, the spears are relatively sharp.

But what's going on today? The dense range of anti-aircraft artillery fire of the independent division is within the range of this bearing, but its accuracy is unbelievable, and even the flexible fighter can directly hit, and if it continues to fight, I am afraid that if I blow up a tank of the armored unit of the independent division, I will have to use a few combat planes in exchange!

This is a loss-making business, and it can't be fought, but fortunately, Kuregin's troops have begun to retreat, and their mission will be completed, "Attention mixed formations, immediately stop bombing, bomber formations return, fighter groups, join the air combat battlefield!" ”

"Division commander, the mixed aircraft group of the Soviet army was beaten away by our air defense forces!" Deputy Chief of Staff Wang Jun shouted excitedly.

All the officers in the division headquarters breathed a long sigh of relief and lifted the threat from the air, and the battle on the ground was to be fought according to the division commander's intentions, and the rhythm of the battlefield was in the hands of the division commander.

Tang Qiuli was a little nervous, relaxed, and said: "Chief of Staff Wang, order the troops of the group to attack head-on, bite the Soviet army tightly, attack the group troops on both flanks, and start a flank attack, so that every step the Soviet army takes, hundreds of corpses will be dropped!" On its way back, try to consume the living forces of the Soviet army! ”

This style of play is exactly the same as the method used by Liu Tiehan to command the troops and pursue the retreating troops of the Soviet Far Eastern Front, constantly bleeding, from the battlefields of Hagengaul and Baiyinchagan to the south bank of the Sejingge River, hundreds of kilometers of road, under the continuous blows of the directly subordinate corps, the troops of the Soviet Transcaucasian Military District, which are eager to retreat, have to fill in how many troops, no one can judge, not to mention, there are also Yang Ketian's three mechanized brigades, a cavalry brigade, and a tank brigade of troops, waiting for them!

The battle on the ground was going on according to Tang Qiuli's plan, and everything was smooth, but his heart was worried about another battlefield, which was what he was most worried about!
