Chapter 280: Staying behind after the withdrawal of troops
Updated: 2012-09-04
The division where Vasilyevich was located was left with three other divisions to defend against the east bank of the Yenisei River and cover other troops to retreat across the river. Of course, Dragomilov would not withdraw them unless it was absolutely necessary.
Everyone knows that this is not a good job, and the most important thing is that the divisions that stayed to block the attack of the Northeast Insurance Team were all hard-core fans of Skobelev. Vasilyevich was actually not included, although he did think that his former boss was more suitable to command the battle situation in the Far East, and handing the army to Dragorov into a powerful opponent like the Northeast is tantamount to letting the soldiers die.
But it was precisely because of his ruthless idea that in order to preserve the strength of his division and to prevent his soldiers from living in vain, Vasilievich actually used a shameful false attack on the 205 highland occupied by the Northeast in broad daylight. Such blatant evasion of the orders of the top peak could naturally be hidden from Dragorov. For this old stubborn and stubborn man who absolutely destroyed the will and quality of the emperor, Vasilievich's fraud would probably be directly sent to the military court to be hanged. Thanks to the great enemy's presence, his evil deeds were temporarily forgiven. It is certainly impossible to blame the past. This scandal that defiled the image of a soldier and seriously damaged the morale of the entire army can only be washed away with blood, either by his own or by the enemy.
Vasilyevich did not regret this, although he also wanted to be in a high position one day and have the opportunity to change the backward appearance of the Imperial ** team, and be able to personally preside over the revenge of the Northeast, and avenge the imperial civilians who died at the hands of the Northeast Insurance Team. However, even so, even if he went back a day ago, he would still make the same choice and would not use the lives of soldiers to add weight to his merits.
In Skobelev's era, Vasilyevich had personally experienced the power of the Northeast Defense Line. If both sides were on the plains, the Russian army would need at least two to three times the strength of the defense line built by the Northeast Insurance Team to succeed. If the Northeast occupied a good geographical location, established defense fortifications along the river bank, or on the high ground, the number of Russian attacks would double, provided that the Northeast Insurance Team did not receive air support.
The gap between the two sides in terms of weapons is no longer a generation difference. The soldiers' training level is not on the same level. As for the commander... there are gaps everywhere. This is how this war gives Vasilievich.
"If you stay on the east coast, stay on. As long as you don't take the initiative to attack the high ground in the northeast, you can do it. However, the old stubborn in the headquarters should not let us go easily. He has offended him today, and I don't know what arrangements will be made later. God bless you, old stubborn, don't let us die anymore." Vasilievich comforted himself and tried his best to calm down his mind. After all, he was carrying the life of a division soldier on his body, and the heavy responsibility made his breathing slightly heavier.
Huazi looked at the Russians' positions in the distance, thinking about the strange actions of the Russians during the day. Haji, Hudson and Jin Geshuo were chatting, but they were not so energetic and thought about these things. The company commander Zhang Sanyang came over at this time. He knew very well about the soldiers under his command. The people of this era attached great importance to people of knowledge, and Zhang Sanyang was no exception. He was a rough man. Although he had learned some basic cultural knowledge in the army, he studied with Huazi from Dashang Affiliated to Dashang.
Compared with the students who came out of school, there is still a huge gap in levels. Of course, Huazi himself is not a top student, otherwise he would not have joined the insurance team and did not continue to go to high school. In general, the school's educational examination system is very unfair to boys who develop late. However, even so, Huazi did not give up. Not only did he often ask his previous classmates to order books for him, but he also signed up for further studies held by the military region to prepare for future military academy.
It is precisely because of Huazi's tireless learning spirit that although Zhang Sanyang is the company commander, he attaches great importance to Huazi. Whenever there is any big or small matter, he will come to discuss it with him.
"Huazi, what do you think about this Russians are making trouble today?"
"Company Commander, I'm guessing too." Huazi was very modest. Even when he was in school, he was not a celebrity, and he was an orphan since childhood, so he was a bit restrained in his personality.
"Tell me, we are all swinging horses and spoons in the same pot, speak freely, exchange opinions, and improve together."
"Then Cheng, company commander, I said... The Russians came out of their own position today and did not attack us, but were just trying their best to attract our attention. We can regard this as a feint attack, so what is the purpose behind them? At that time, our airship was in the sky, and the Russians wanted to take the opportunity to send a hidden force to launch a sneak attack on us at night. Obviously, this was impossible."
"It makes sense!" Zhang Sanyang nodded.
"Then we can think that the actions of the Russians on the other side are not directed at us. In other words, they are just acting, and performing for their own people."
When Zhang Sanyang heard this and thought about it carefully, it was really the case.
"What you mean is that this matter has nothing to do with us... Could it be that they asked them to attack us, but they didn't have the courage, so they acted in this big drama?"
"I'm really confused about the specific reason for this matter, but after hearing what the company commander said, it's really possible." Huazi deliberately flattered Zhang Sanyang.
After hearing this, Zhang Sanyang smiled and was praised, and was quite shy.
"Company Commander, I heard that the Air Force people exploded all the bridges on the Yenisei River yesterday?"
"I heard it too." Hudson, who was originally talking to Kim Gon-soo and Haji, came up at this time, and the other two were the same.
"Company Commander, the supply of the Russian army on the east coast can be completely transported by the west coast. Now that the bridge has been blown up, I heard that there are only a small 100,000 Russian troops on the east coast. Do they have so many ships for supply transport?"
"You mean...they're possible for them to withdraw troops from the East Coast?"
The sun sets and the night begins.
Wang Yi had just come out of Lin Tae-hee's room. Although the girl's health was already safe, Wang Yi was still a little worried. After seeing her sleeping, he left gently and closed the door. The butler Fran was standing outside the room, and Wang Yi asked, "Where is Yazhi?"
"When you say the young master, the eldest lady is talking to the second lady in your room, and the other girls are there too."
