Volume Fourteen, Smoke of Gunpowder, Chapter 72, Turan Storm(2/2)

The problem is that by this time, Yuan Chenhao's intentions have not been directly reflected.

To be honest, with the situation at that time, you will find that Yuan Chenhao definitely did not target the Siberian Front. As mentioned earlier, as long as he could occupy Ekaterin Arbor and capture the east Tyumen. The Siberian Front would become a decoration. Hundreds of thousands of Russian troops would sooner or later consume the Russian army in defensive operations, which would be more ideal than in the offensive operations, but there was no need to use 7 combat units to force the ground troops. With Yuan Chenhao's awareness, he would definitely not be so short-sighted. You should know that if the combat effectiveness shown by the Republic Army in World War III can be fully utilized, at most three combat units can be needed to encircle and annihilate the Russian Siberian Front. In other words, Yuan Chenhao has a greater goal.

As mentioned earlier, Yuan Chenhao's purpose of the battle was at least to capture Orenburg or Urals.

Under the circumstances at that time, if it were for this purpose, he should have dragged the Russian Ural Front in Chelyabinsk, forcing the Russian army to continue to increase troops, and then let the fully prepared sixth combat unit attack Orenburg, or let the ninth combat unit cross the Ural River to attack Ural. As for the Siberian Front, it can be handed over to the eighth combat unit and the Ditian combat unit, at most it can be strengthened.

It can be seen from this that Yuan Chenhao must have set a higher purpose for the battle based on the battlefield situation.

Of course, from the perspective of the situation, the Republic's Army is indeed fighting hard to encircle and annihilate the Siberian Front.

The battle lasted until the moonlight. The Russian Siberian Front seemed to see hope of "breaking through", that is, to the north of Kurgan, the Russian army seized a gap of about a kilometer wide between the Eighth Combat Unit and the Ditan Combat Unit defense line. And opened the gap with a decisive assault.

On this day, the Diblade combat units also retreated from Chelyabinsk and assembled in Kopeisk to the east.

Bi., Wanbi

Anyone can see that Yuan Chenhao is adjusting the deployment, and is adjusting the loopholes that have been discovered on the Kurgan Tyumen defense line. That is to say, if the eighth combat unit and the second combat unit cannot fix the loopholes in the direction, or the sixth combat unit interspersed in the east cannot allow the Russian army to stop the breakout pace. Yuan Chenhao will have no choice but to let the combat units go to plug the leaks.

Affected by this," the Russian army strengthened its attack on Chelyabinsk in the early morning of the month.

The intention of the Russian Ural Front is also very simple. If the combat units in Chelyabinsk can be left in Chelyabinsk, the Siberian Front's breakthrough will be half successful. Imagine. When hundreds of thousands of Russian troops flock to Chelyabinsk and Yekaterin Arbor, which are not fortified in the east, what will the situation look like? No matter how combat effectiveness the Russian army has, hundreds of thousands of troops will definitely be able to break the defense line of the Republic's army. More importantly, the defense of the Russian army in Europe will be stronger.

By this time, it has become a strategic event to make the Siberian Front break through.

Of course, by the first day of February, all the hopes of the Russian army were shattered.

In the early morning of that day, the Ditian combat unit set out from Petropavlovsk and occupied Ishim east of Kurgan in just one hour. You know, this place is not only the center of the railway hub, but also the headquarters of the Russian Siberian Front. Although the Russian headquarters retreated early and was not annihilated, the Russian Siberian Front was in a state of headlessness for the next two days, so there was no way to break through.

In comparison, fighting in another direction is more important.

On the morning of the same day, the Seventh Combat Unit, which had sufficient rest and recuperation, boarded a vertical take-off and landing transport aircraft and headed straight to Orenburg in the low-altitude assault method that he was best at. The Diqin Combat Unit, which had previously retreated to rest and recuperation, also set off from Chelyashisk and advanced westward in ground assault method, with the target aiming directly at Orenburg.

Before the Russian Ural Front could react, at noon that day, the vertical take-off and landing transport fleet that had just transported the 7th combat unit combat brigade sent the 10th combat unit waiting in Yekaterin Arbor to the outskirts of Ufa City, west of Ural Mountain. It cut off the ground passage for the Russian army to go south to reinforce Orenburg in one fell swoop. Before that, the support brigade of the combat unit of the field arrived at Yekaterin Arbor and guarded the defense line of the two main combat units.

Although at this time, the Republic Army's strength of Chelyabinsk and Yekaterin Arbor was reduced to a minimum, the commander of the Russian Ural Front was not happy in the face of this opportunity. You should know that Orenburg and Ufa were both the rear of the Ural Front, and when the rear was not protected, attacking forward was equivalent to falling into the trap.

In fact, Yuan Chenhao's serial punches have not been completed.

In the evening of that day, the Ninth Fighting Unit crossed the Ural River, surrounded the Ural City in northwest of Kazakhstan, and issued the final silence to the Kazakh rebels in the city. That is, if they do not surrender before dawn, they will use devastating means to eliminate all the rebels in the city. If the main force guarding the city was the Russian army, they might not surrender. For the Kazakh rebels whose morale has long been bottoming out, this final silence is undoubtedly the last straw that crushed the camel. Before dawn, less than two hours after the Ninth Fighting Unit issued the final silence, the battalion commander of the Guard Battalion of the Karma Command arrested the senior rebel generals and then surrendered to the Ninth Fighting Unit. By dawn, the Ninth Fighting Unit had already controlled the Urals and handed over the first batch of rebels to the Kazakhstan Defense Forces who had just arrived.

Strictly speaking, the Ninth Battle Unit's actions in Urals are nothing.

At dawn, a major event happened, that is, the vanguard of the combat unit took a speedboat and hovercraft to successfully land in Makhachkara on the other side of the Caspian Sea, and established a defensive position before the Russian army arrived.

Only then did the "Turan Storm" blow out in full swing.

From this we can also see that Yuan Chenhao is indeed a genius military commander with a very clear overall view, and his battlefield cege and deployment capabilities are amazing. From this battle, we can see that when his opponent understands his intentions, there is no chance of turning the tables. In other words, he will show all his cards only when all the conditions for victory are ripe and victory becomes part of the plan.

At this time, there was no suspense.
