In the narrow passage, Tao Meng was like a cheetah, kicking open the closed door like lightning, and at the same time threw the grenade that had been prepared into it, and when he had just hid along the wall, the violent explosion formed a huge shock wave, rushing out of the door with countless debris and smashing the opposite wall with a beep. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. Learning Network)

Before the smoke cleared, he drew his pistol and rushed into the room.

At this moment, a silver light suddenly burst out from the corner of the wall, he didn't expect that there were still remnants of enemies in the room, but he couldn't dodge at such a close distance, so he could only dodge the key point by flashing his waist violently, and at the same time his fingers slammed the trigger.

In the sound of crackling shooting, Tao Meng only felt a sharp pain in his waist and eyes, and at the same time, a black shadow suddenly crawled on his body.

But before he could see what this guy was doing, he was not covered by a grenade and stabbed himself, and footsteps sounded behind him again.

I couldn't help but think about it, I saw him violently holding the dead body and turning around, and when he just exposed the back of the corpse at the door, the three Russian soldiers who were attracted by the explosion had already killed him with bayonets.

"Your grandma!"

Tao Meng's eyes were red, and he saw that the three bayonets pierced the back of the dead corpse almost at the same time, and his heart suddenly trembled.

I can't help but say that after raising my hand and using the bullet to knock down the guy on the left, I slammed the corpse into a pile of the remaining two, and pulled out the three-edged bayonet in my waist with my backhand, and stabbed it into the chest of one of the guys through the armpit of the corpse.

When the latter Russian soldier saw that his two companions had been killed, his eyes were blood-red, like a polar bear that had been furious, and he forgot to shoot, and pounced on the ground with Tao in his arms.

The sharp pain in his waist made it impossible for Tao Meng to exert the strength of the Jinbu, and he also admitted that if he really wanted to compare his strength, the two of them were not necessarily the opponents of this guy who pretended to be like a cow, but don't forget that the reconnaissance battalion has a special national martial arts instructor, and they were all famous martial artists of the Manchu Qing Dynasty before.

What the ancestors left behind was not to win by strength, skill is the real key!

After the Russian soldier angrily pressed the opponent to the ground, he raised his fist and was about to give him a few blows, but he didn't expect to hold down Tao Meng, who couldn't move, but slammed his knee up.

I only heard the sound of something cracking as if something was cracking, and the fists of the three or five thick Russian soldiers seemed to be frozen, and their faces were almost purple, and after a while, they suddenly rolled away from Tao Meng's body, holding the root of life in both hands and screaming miserably.

Tao Meng quickly evened out a few breaths, rolled on the spot and pulled out a three-edged bayonet, and slashed hard from the neck of the pig that made a pig-killing howl, and suddenly blood was like a spring, splashing all over his face.

Seeing that he could breathe a sigh of relief after finally killing the enemy, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, which really frightened him, and the fight just now made him exhaust all his strength, not to mention that he was stabbed in the waist, so he could only hold the long three-edged bayonet tightly and lean against the wall, panting and waiting for the moment to come.

"Tao Meng, are you okay?"

Just when he was about to make another fight with his condensed strength, a familiar voice came from the door, as if he heard the sound of heaven, the whole person was relieved, let go of the three-edged bayonet and smiled bitterly: "Damn, you won't come sooner, I almost hung up!" ”

"Repentance."

"If you die, our battalion commander will definitely set off firecrackers to celebrate, which is a scourge." The comrades-in-arms quickly put down their guns, quickly ran to Tao Meng's side, saw that he was still bleeding from his waist, immediately tore his clothes, took out a roll of gauze from his pocket, folded a few layers, sprinkled some gold sore medicine on it, and then pressed it fiercely on the wound.

The sharp stinging pain made Tao Meng inhale violently, and even beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his comrades-in-arms hurriedly tied gauze around his waist to fix the gauze, and said with a smile: "Yes, I guess you will definitely go to Cullen to rest this time, I'm so lucky I waited a few times and didn't get sick." ”

"Sick? Well, you're not at ease! Why are you sick? Tao scratched his head, did he fall behind? There are still guys who don't look forward to looking for a good job these days!

"Four good guys." The comrade-in-arms kicked the corpse, picked up the pistol he dropped with a smile, handed it to Tao Meng after changing the magazine, blinked his eyes and said mysteriously: "Tao Meng, don't you know?" There are a lot of female college students in the field hospital this time, and it is said that all of them are very beautiful, and everyone is eager to get sick when they are buried! ”

That's fine, too!

Tao Meng's face was dark, what kind of people are they, and he said angrily: "That's simple, you can find a Russian guy to take a knife." ”

"Whew!" The comrades-in-arms helped Tao Meng up and walked out, and did not forget to say: "Being stabbed is something that stupid people do, and I don't have the ability of you to avoid the vital point, in case there are fewer fragments, how will I find my little daughter-in-law in the future." ”

"Day!"

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Tao Meng gestured a small middle finger, since the emperor invented this contemptuous gesture, he has become popular in the army. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. After walking for a while holding on to the cold huā granite wall, he noticed that the explosion outside seemed to be much quieter, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" Don't fight? ”

"It's a fart, it's dawn, it is estimated that the four you killed are the last batch, and now the second regiment has come up, and even the artillery is coming here."

With the support of his comrades-in-arms, Tao Meng drilled out of a gate, only to feel that his eyes suddenly opened up, the dilapidated fortress was full of soldiers with loaded guns, and a trace of fish white in the east had been stubbornly revealed, and at this time he found that he and the reconnaissance company had been fighting all night.

"So small, I heard that you knocked down seven Russian soldiers, how about it? The injury is not serious. ”

As soon as Tao Meng found a big rock that he didn't know where it blew up, and was about to smoke a cigarette to relieve his fatigue, he heard a voice of condolences behind him, turned his head to see that it was the division commander, and hurriedly prepared to get up and salute.

"Sit down, no need to salute." Duan Qirui hurriedly pressed Tao Meng on the stone, and said with a smile: "Well, look at the complexion, go to Kulun to recuperate for a few days and come back." ”

"I just heard them say that you killed seven Russian soldiers by yourself, not bad, not bad!"

"Hehe......." Tao scratched his head fiercely, he was not very accustomed to the praise of the division commander, and he didn't know how to answer, so he only smirked vigorously, and suddenly he was so angry that the commander of the reconnaissance battalion kicked him falsely, but there was still a little smugness in the corner of his eyes, and he scolded with a smile: "Cowardly, what a smirk!" ”

"Take care of your injuries, I'll wait for you to come back soon."

"Yes, Commander."

After patting Tao Meng's shoulder, Duan Qirui continued to walk forward with a deep and shallow foot, looking around, the walls of the huā granite were full of traces of blood and bullets, the craters and big holes of the explosion were everywhere, and the corpses were already lying everywhere from the inside out, both Russian soldiers and their own soldiers, one of the soldiers even hugged two Russian soldiers before he died, and from the traces of the explosion on the ground, he pulled the grenade at the moment behind the nose that was grabbed by the two of them. If it weren't for the blackened body, if it weren't for the military uniform, maybe he wouldn't even be able to tell who was who.

It was a bloody night, as many as 2,300 Russian soldiers stationed on Heights 101 and arrived almost at the same time as the reconnaissance battalion were completely annihilated, and if you count the previous ones, there were 4,700 Russian soldiers who paid with their lives for the small bunker group fighting for this flank, and 788 people died in the two-day attack on their side" 407 wounded, including 29 veterans of the elite reconnaissance company.

This is the price of a hard encounter, and the battle is not over, standing on the battery and looking down, the Irkutsk fortress has been completely exposed under the nose "As long as the artillery is erected here, the whole of Irkutsk will be reduced to a sea of fire."

"Report, the first three battalions of the Fifth Cavalry Division have arrived."

Duan Qirui saw the battalion commanders of the three vanguard battalions of the Fifth Cavalry Division who came to support, and the three battalion commanders were also thrilled by this tragic scene, and immediately saluted after seeing him: "The first regiment and one battalion, the second battalion, and the second regiment and one battalion of the Fifth Cavalry Division are ordered to come to reinforcements, please instruct the commander." ”

"It must have been hard to travel overnight, right?"

The commander of the first regiment and the first battalion led by him glanced around, and said, "Thank you Commander Duan for your concern, we are just in a hurry" Compared with you, it is really too far behind. ”

"Hehe, it's not over yet." Duan Qirui waved his hand and asked immediately after letting the three of them sit down, "Did the command tell you the purpose of coming?" ”

"The order is to support the 6th Infantry Division and at the same time cut off the reinforcements coming out of Angarsk!"

Qirui nodded and continued: "This is the information we just received, two thousand Cossack cavalry and five thousand infantry have arrived twenty kilometers north of Irkutsk, if you speed it, you may see them in a while, so how are you going to fight?" ”

"Face the enemy head-on!" The three battalion commanders said almost in unison.

"Front?" Duan Qirui narrowed his eyes: "There are two thousand Cossack cavalry and five thousand infantry to help, and you only have three thousand!" ”

"Report to Division Commander Duan, we are coming at them, the Russians have blown all the Cossack cavalry into the sky, this time I want to let him taste the power of my broadsword!" The commander of the first battalion of the first regiment patted the thick broadsword on his waist and said confidently.

"Okay, time is pressing, I don't want to tell you how to fight, but after all, there are 5,000 infantry there, in order to be safe, I will send eight armored vehicles in the division to operate with you, and you must remember that if you can't win, don't do it brutely, and cut them off from coming over."

"Yes."

The commander of the first battalion and the other two battalion commanders hurriedly got up and walked out, and as he moved, the big knife on his back suddenly made a clanging sound, Duan Qirui was also curious why someone would use this thick-backed gossip knife, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, I don't know your name yet?" ”

"Report to Division Commander Duan, my name is Han Muxia." Han Muxia stepped forward, said his name, and walked out of the camp after introducing the two battalion commanders around him.

When the three of them walked out of the camp, the cavalrymen who were resting outside suddenly stood up, and more than 3,000 eyes were almost focused on him.

"Get on the horse and get ready to go!"

While the three battalion commanders turned over and got on their horses, more than 3,000 cavalrymen were neatly like one person, and jumped on their horses at the same time, this action made Duan Qirui sigh that the Fifth Cavalry Division really has two brushes, and I am afraid that this alone will not lose to the previous four main cavalry divisions.

As the cavalry lined up, everyone found that the cavalry battalion soldiers lined up behind Han Muxia turned out to be the same as their battalion commander, all of them with thick-backed broadswords, and a red rope on the handle of the knife fluttered with the horse's fart.

Ten minutes later, when three cavalry battalions and eight night cats quickly passed through the junction of the 101st heights and the Irkutsk fortress under the cover of artillery fire, there was already a fire behind them.

Han Muxia turned his head to look, only to see dozens of fireballs erupting from the 101 heights, and after occupying the geographical advantage, the artillerymen could smash the shells anywhere in the Irkutsk fortress almost without aiming.

The crucial fortress battle has finally begun!

Countless soldiers, bathed in the golden morning light, rushed in through the gap that had been blown open under the cover of artillery fire in the sky.

The scramble unfolded from every pillbox, every passage, and many times the fighters on both sides were almost fighting with their guns pointed at them!

Although the battle in broad daylight was much better than last night's sight, when he saw thousands of cavalry advancing north under his nose, Mardinov knew that he could no longer trust the reinforcements, and when there was no way to retreat, he burst into great courage and personally rushed to the front line with his guards.

The colonel's courage inspired the Russian soldiers in the fortress, and the Russian army, which was called barbaric and uncivilized by Western European countries, completely broke out the barbaric side, and they defended almost every inch of land in the fortress.

In the face of the madness of the Russian army, all the officers and men of the Sixth Division did not show weakness, the bayonets were soaked in blood, and a tooth for a tooth was a tooth for a tooth, at this time grenades and mobile and flexible light machine guns almost became a nightmare for the Russian army, and countless soldiers fell under their tyranny.

After Mardinov knocked down a Chinese soldier who had been killed by an oblique stab with a pistol, he felt a sharp pain in his back before he turned around, "When he shook his body and turned his head, he found that another Chinese soldier with a bayonet still covered in blood had been strangled with his own guards.

He held on to the wall so hard that he didn't understand why the reinforcements had not arrived after walking for a day and a night on a road of less than 100 kilometers.

"Captain Zov" don't worry, the Irkutsk fortress is not so easy to fall, you listen to those cannons, the ** team must have been blown to pieces by the artillery of the fortress, and we won't gain much if we rush over. Chomakov sat on horseback, chatting and laughing with the Cossack cavalry commander, seemingly deaf to the muffled thunderous sound of artillery in the distance.

Behind him, there were 5,000 loosely formed infantrymen, but the 2,000 Cossack cavalry on the side were quite neat, and they walked towards the fortress without hurrying"In fact, no one believed that this fortress would fall in a few years, so everyone did not realize that the danger was already at hand.

Captain Zoff nodded, "Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be something mixed in the muffled sound of cannons, and when he raised his head suddenly, his face turned white in an instant, and he saw a billowing cloud of dust and smoke on the horizon.

Cavalry, only a cavalry charge will bring up such a big cloud of dust and smoke!

There was no cavalry at all in the Irkutsk fortress, and there was no second friendly cavalry in this area, so there was only one case left, and this was the enemy's cavalry!

The enemy's cavalry was able to appear behind the fortress, there is only one possibility, those roaring cannons are the enemy's! The experienced Captain Zov immediately drew his rifle and shouted: "Major Chomakov, lead your troops to set up a blocking line!" After speaking, he waved his rifle violently and shouted: "Cossack warriors, the enemy is in front, don't give them any chance!" ”

"Rush!"

"Rush!"

The elite Cossack cavalry in black capes swept in front of the infantry like a hurricane, but many of them did not draw their rifles, because almost all the cavalry did not like to use rifles, and it was difficult for the rifle to control the accuracy in the rapid impact, and if you wanted to shoot steadily, you had to stop, and the stopped cavalry was simply the target!

This was a difficult problem, and the Cossack generals knew it well, so they needed a lot of rapid-fire revolvers, but Nicholas II and his army ministers did not think so, they felt that the rifles were powerful, so they insisted that the Cossacks must be equipped with rifles, and in the case that all the army could not guarantee a shot, it was not realistic to equip additional revolvers, so many Cossack cavalry at this time did not even pull out their rifles, but pinched the "eagle's talons" that the world feared.

When the Cossack cavalry gradually moved away, Chomakov came to his senses, but he was only a little nobleman who came to the army through the back door, and he did not know how to form a sniper line against the cavalry, so he thought it was clever to line up the infantry according to the ancient three-stage firing method of arquebus.

Unlike Captain Zoff, although Han Muxia doesn't like rifles, he has more choices, and the wealthy Emperor Li has never treated soldiers badly in terms of equipment, "So after hearing that the cavalry likes Mauser shell guns, he immediately made a large number of imitation equipment, and now he has achieved one cavalryman."

So after seeing the enemy, Han Muxia violently pulled out the shell gun with his left hand, and after firing three shots in a row towards the sky, "his right hand pulled out the thick-backed broadsword again, and the tip of the knife quickly shook out a knife in the air, and shouted: "Bigsword battalion, kill!" ”

Three guns, one knife huā, this is the unique charge signal of one regiment and one battalion of the Fifth Cavalry Division, this cavalry battalion with a thick-backed machete, in the Fifth Division has a nickname "Big Knife Battalion" because when they charge, the snowy blade will always bring a cold light when dancing, so this kind of gun and knife has almost become their symbol.

"Broadsword battalion, kill!"

"Kill!"

In the shouting and killing in the sky, the two cavalry collided violently like a tumbling tide, and the bullet knife light flashed between each pair of fighting soldiers, and the cavalry's charging speed was very, often a knife cut in two cool and exciting.

When the two cavalry staggered past each other like a tide, the grass in the center was already full of dead bodies, and before Zov and the Cossack cavalry on the left and right could turn their horses back and fight again, their eyes suddenly straightened.

When they were discovered, eight long tongues of fire had already erupted from the roof, "Countless bullets swept through the frightened Cossack cavalry like a rainstorm, whether it was soldiers or war horses, as long as they were swept away, all of them were shattered."

The furious wildcats grinned, not caring if there was a well in front of them, and the machine gunners were trembling with excitement, they had never seen so many unprotected targets at their own disposal.

Zoff watched in a daze as the eight wildcats swept through his ranks like an autumn wind, blood oozing from his eyes, and when a bullet passed through his chest, he swung the "Eagle Claw" with the handle that had made the world tremble, but the cavalry knife raised high never swung again.

"Kill!"

After cutting through the Cossack cavalry's broadsword battalion and handing over the work of dealing with the remnants of the Cossack enemy to the two brother battalions on the left and right, Han Muxia had already led everyone to rush into the frightened Russian infantry.

Blood, stumps and heads were taken into the sky by the blades" Markov's sniper line was not so much to block the cavalry as to give the Broadsword battalion a chance to brutalize and kill!

The dense infantry formation made it impossible for the cavalry to think about it at all, as long as they kept dancing their broadswords, every swing would take away a life.

In just ten minutes, when the Broadsword battalion had slaughtered the Russian infantry and turned around, they found that the entire grass was covered with corpses, blood sliding from the faces of the soldiers, along the sleeves of their shirts to the back of the swords, and then dripping down the tips of the swords.

The entire broadsword battalion was like a circle in a sea of blood, and when they sniped their horses and walked towards the frightened infantry like a bloody Shura in the sun, the frightened Markov threw away his pistol without hesitation and raised his arms.

On 9 August, after three consecutive days of fighting, the Sixth Infantry Division, after paying the price of 2,400 casualties and more than 1,000 wounded, conquered the Irkutsk fortress in one fell swoop and opened the passage southwest of Lake Berga to the depths of Siberia, including the subsequent 7,000 reinforcements, a total of more than 19,000 Russian soldiers were killed, 785 were captured, and at the same time, 14,000 Russian civilians in the fortress city were captured.

Two days later, after being surrounded for five days, the commander of the garrison of Chita Fortress also opened the fortress gate and surrendered, and a full 8,000 Russian soldiers and 13,000 Russian civilians were captured, and a long life of hard labor awaited them.

The two fortresses were conquered one after another, which finally made Zhao Long and then the front command breathe a sigh of relief, although the cost was a bit large, but the ability to quickly pull out the two nails that were crawling on the back of Cullen undoubtedly had a great impact on the subsequent battles.

Just two days after the surrender of the Chita Fortress, the 1st Semi-Mechanized Infantry Division and the 3rd Cavalry Division of the Transformation 1 also joined forces to launch an attack on the three Russian infantry divisions stationed on the Orekema River, and after three consecutive days and three nights of fierce fighting, they completely annihilated the three Russian infantry divisions, captured more than 18,000 people, and finally controlled the entire Oreokma River area, not only cutting off the Trans-Siberian Railway, but also cutting the central and eastern lines of the Russian Far Army in one fell swoop.

When the 14th Infantry Division finally emerged from the dense forest five days later, the 5,000 Russian troops stationed in Nizhneudinsk did not expect to encounter the enemy, and surrendered after only one morning.

In just 20 days, on the key central front, eight cavalry infantry divisions of the Chinese army attacked at the same time, successively conquered, and after paying a total of 8,000 men, they not only ate up nearly 80,000 troops of the opponent in one fell swoop, but also surrounded the remaining 120,000 people on the middle line of the Russian Far Army in a narrow area between the Angarsk and the Lena River on the tip of Lake Belga.

There are only two roads left for General Kuropatkin, to wait for reinforcements, or to head north into the truly barren land of Siberia, but at the dawn of winter, to go north with an army of 120,000 men who are not well supplied is almost no different from sending him to death.

When all eyes were attracted by the victory in the middle line, the countdown to the general attack on the Vladivostok fortress also began.
