Four hundred and ninetieth chapters continue to resist
The "Tuk-Tuk-Tuk" machine gun bullet hit the hard tree and a shower of sawdust flew out, flying over the heads of the two men.
"What a quick reaction." The two of them rolled and crawled to hide behind a big tree and looked at each other in surprise.
"Damn it, those people from the Don River Front. These old guys can smell their fishy smell even from three miles away." Jiang Jun cursed and raised the "Ant" submachine gun in his hand, aiming it at two hundred people.
The Soviet convoy a few meters away swept away the shuttle.
Blue Dragon and Jiang Jun guessed well. The Soviet troops that came were the vanguard of the Don River Army originally commanded by Zhukov. They had become veterans in more than two years of confrontation with the Chinese Siberian Army.
Youzi's military quality and actual combat experience are not comparable to those of the rookies of the Soviet Union's Western Front who invaded Finland.
"Swish, swish, swish," less than three minutes into the battle, the Soviet tank guns fell on the head of this small unit, killing six Finnish soldiers on the spot.
"Retreat quickly to the southwest," Jiang Jun shouted at the Finnish soldiers at the top of his lungs. "Bang!" The blue dragon on the side calmly killed a Soviet soldier who had just jumped out of the truck and killed him in mid-air.
After the bullet was fired with a "click", another bullet was automatically loaded into the barrel of the gun under the push of gunpowder.
"Bang bang!" The SVD sniper rifle in Blue Dragon's hand hit almost 100 times at a distance of more than 200 meters. After knocking down five or six Soviet soldiers again, the Soviets became cautious in their offensive.
Under the cover of Blue Dragon and others, this Finnish army squad quickly withdrew from the battle after suffering more than a dozen casualties.
Soon, the telegram that the Suodon River Army was joining the war reached Su Tong's desk.
"Stalin's reaction was not bad, so he activated Zhukov. It seems that the Finns are in trouble this time." Su Tong looked at the message in his hand and sighed. Historically, the Soviet army did not use Zhukov during the invasion of Finland.
, but now that the Soviet army suffered too many casualties due to the interference of the Chinese government, Stalin finally couldn't help but play Zhukov's card.
In early February, when Zhukov rushed to the Finnish front and took over full command and the Soviet Don River Army joined the battlefield, the situation of the battle changed. The Soviet army changed its previous rigid and rigid fighting style and adopted step-by-step but fierce and cunning tactics.
On a Finnish army position, as soon as the Soviet artillery fire stopped, the Finnish soldiers immediately rushed to the position and started to set up blocking positions according to past experience. Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, the Soviet artillery fired back.
More intense artillery fire just now came over, causing heavy losses to the Finnish soldiers who had no time to escape.
After the Soviet artillery inflicted heavy casualties on the Finnish troops on the position, dozens of tanks immediately rushed up. Soon, a Finnish army position was occupied by the Soviet army.
In the underground headquarters of the Finnish Defense Council, Chairman Mannerheim urgently summoned Captain Fan Bingbing, the liaison officer of the Chinese Government in Finland.
"Captain Fan, according to the information we have received, General Zhukov of the Soviet Union has arrived at the front line and has taken over full command. Along with him are five infantry divisions and one tank division of the Don Front, a total of 100,000 people.
troops, does your country’s government have any good suggestions?”
Fan Bingbing smiled bitterly, "Chairman Mannerheim, we have just received this news from the front line. Please forgive me, if Zhukov and the Don River Army really arrived in full force, your country's Mannoheim Line of Defense would probably be
It's dangerous. As far as we know, the Don Front is definitely different from the previous Soviet troops. They are definitely the elite of the Soviet troops."
"Is there no way to deal with them?" Mannerheim asked with a wry smile.
Fan Bingbing thought for a while, "According to my personal experience, the Don River Front Army is first-class in terms of equipment, practical experience and military quality. To deal with their joint attack by armored forces, air force and infantry, we can only use more powerful weapons."
Firepower or more elite troops to fight back, but unfortunately your country does not have these two things."
"Captain Fan, as far as I know, your country has been fighting the Don River Army commanded by Zhukov for two years in Siberia. How did you deal with them?" After hearing what Fan Bingbing said, another defense committee member in the command room was a little confused.
Not happy, "I believe that the bravery of our Finnish soldiers is no less than that of soldiers from any other country. As long as we have enough weapons, we will be able to repel these invaders."
Fan Bingbing couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Mr. Defense Commissioner, first of all, I want to admit that what you said is correct. Finnish soldiers are indeed very brave and excellent soldiers, but your equipment and scale are compared with the Don River Front Army opposite.
But it's far from it. When we first fought against them in Siberia, we had thousands of first-class fighter jets, hundreds of advanced large bombers, more than 2,000 heavy artillery pieces, thousands of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, hundreds of thousands of
Elite troops that have been tested by war and continuous supplies. But unfortunately, I did not see these things in your army. Mr. Defense Committee, courage is important to defeat the enemy, but it must be based on the necessary material foundation.
."
Everyone in the room was silent. They also knew that although Fan Bingbing's words didn't sound good, they were the truth. Compared with the Soviet army, which was armed to the teeth, the equipment of the Finnish army was too poor.
Some weapons and equipment were transported through the air channel, but it was still too little for us. Especially the heavy equipment was almost blank. There were no tanks, no heavy artillery, no advanced fighters and a sufficient number of soldiers. Such a battle would make any
When a famous marshal comes to take command, there will always be a situation of defeat but no victory.
Fan Bingbing added: "So I think what your country can do now is how to teach these Soviet invaders the biggest lesson so that we can obtain the most favorable conditions for your country during peace talks. And our country's government is willing to continue
Support your country’s just war.”
Cheng Fangfang on the side kept translating Fan Bingbing's words to everyone, secretly despising her own hypocrisy in her heart. She obviously wanted to use the hands of the Finns to consume the strength of the Soviet Russians, and by the way, she brought in second-hand arms and sold them to make profits.
But you said it so righteously, politics, you are really an ugly thing.
Chairman Mannerheim and the defense committee members in the headquarters discussed quietly for a long time and decided to purchase another 500 57-caliber recoilless rifles, 500 Somi submachine guns and 3,000 Garlands from the Chinese Government.
German rifles as well as five million rounds of ammunition and 50,000 recoilless artillery shells.
Another multi-million dollar order was received. After taking the order and signing it, Fan Bingbing readily stated that the items would arrive within three days.
At the General Headquarters of the Soviet Western Front, a Soviet captain was reporting the situation to Zhukov.
"Comrade Zhukov, according to the intelligence we have, the Finnish government has received support from the Chinese government. Among the Finnish military equipment we captured, there are Garand rifles, Somi submachine guns, 57-caliber recoilless rifles, etc.
There are many pieces of equipment, and these pieces of equipment are all printed with Chinese characters. This is a submachine gun we captured. Please take a look."
Zhukov took over a Somi submachine gun and looked at the body of the gun. There were several square characters engraved on the body of the gun.
"Made in Chahar" Zhukov read out slowly. Zhukov, who had dealt with the Chahar army for several years, was very familiar with these words.
"General, these Chinese people have stretched their hands too far." The captain said angrily: "It's okay that they invaded our Siberia, but now they have extended their claws to Finland. General, we must start this.
Fight back and let them know how powerful we are." The young captain waved his furry fists and cursed loudly.
Zhukov was not as angry as the captain. He just smiled and said, "Comrade Captain, you don't have to worry. I think I already understand the purpose of the Chinese. They just want to use the hands of the Finns to weaken our strength.
By the way, we are just selling some arms to make money. After all, we have just signed a peace agreement with their political axes. No matter what, they will not blatantly engage in firefights with us. At most, they will only make small moves in private. In our Soviet Red Army
All conspiracies are useless in the face of absolute strength. You have to remember that this is the Finnish front line, not Siberia. Order the front line troops to strengthen the offensive. You must pay attention to the coordination of infantry and artillery."
"Yes, Comrade Zhukov, we will definitely teach those Chinese people a lesson." The captain saluted and went out.
"Boom, boom, boom" bursts of violent explosions rang out on the battlefield. The Soviet Russian army had always adhered to the artillery doctrine thoroughly. As soon as the newly joined Don River Front arrived at the front line, it started a fierce attack, using 155-caliber howitzers.
And countless cannons, field guns and other artillery fire of various calibers continued to explode on the Mannoheim defense line.
"Comrades, charge!" The Soviet army launched a new round of attack. The Soviet army's offensive formation was like this. Generally, the battalion commander rushed at the front, and 25 meters behind him was the company commander. The company commander
Behind them is the skirmisher line led by the platoon leaders. The newly arrived artillery of the Don Front also provides good cover. They can usually escort their own infantry to a distance of 100 meters from the Finnish army's position.
The Finnish army, on the other hand, gave full play to its mobility and flexibility. They laid mines on the path of the Soviet attack, and made full use of the lightness and flexibility of mortars. They fired a few shots at one place and then moved quickly, making the Soviet army want to attack.
Revenge is nowhere to be found.
In this way, the war continued until late February. Although the Soviet army's tactics and tactics had made significant progress under Zhukov's command, they still lost more than 30,000 people due to the tenacious resistance of the Finnish military and civilians.
