The Second and Third armies that came to the rescue retreated in a hurry. Since most of the vehicles were burned, combat materials and supplies were seriously insufficient. Most of the Russian soldiers could only walk, and the limited vehicles could only carry the wounded, which was even more serious.
It slowed down the marching speed of the troops.
Listening to the painful howls of the wounded on the stretcher next to him, General Molokov did not dare to turn around and look at them. The wounded who were brought here were all carried out in a coma, even if sometimes it was just a little bit on the hand.
Burns. Because they are all poisoned. There are many chemical accelerants in napalm, and some also add white phosphorus. After the human skin is burned, a large amount of highly toxic chemicals will remain and enter the blood through the open wounds of the burn wounds, causing injuries.
Blood poisoning. The burnt surface usually turns purple.
There are many parasitic mosquitoes and flies in the Far East, and the wounds of the wounded are often laid by these mosquitoes and flies. Therefore, the wound must be cleaned by wiping it with liquid medicine and cotton gauze. Cleaning with liquid medicine alone will not remove the eggs. If there are no
After cleaning, the tiny maggots hatched from these eggs will soon enter the human blood vessels and even reach the nerves of the eyes, causing blindness. You can imagine the pain of the wounded when cleaning the wounds, and the wailing they make makes people feel like they are in hell.
As the soldiers passed the vehicles transporting the wounded, they were cursing this damned weapon and praying that the planes overhead would not come again.
In fact, this air raid took place in an open wilderness area and the power of napalm bombs could not be fully exerted. In addition to the baggage vehicles, the Russian army's own casualties were only more than 6,000.
It's nothing to an army of hundreds of thousands of people, but the shadow it brings to people's minds is so great that the appearance of the Chinese Air Force's reconnaissance planes can frighten them into hiding.
by the road.
General Molokov and General Andrupv have jointly reported the situation here to Marshal Brücher, requesting the military district headquarters to quickly dispatch aircraft. The message also specifically reminded Marshal Brücher that if the situation cannot be
The Chinese planes were intercepted, and their two armies could be wiped out on the road just by bombing from their planes.
Marshal Brücher was shocked when he received the telegram. He could not believe that the troops of the Far East Military Region, which he was so proud of, were defeated so easily, and moreover by the Chinese army, which they had always looked down upon.
Because the matter was so important, he had to report to Moscow and asked Moscow to quickly send more troops to the Far East, and most importantly, to send a large number of air forces, otherwise he would not be able to ensure the safety of the Siberian Railway.
Moscow Kremlin
"Comrade Beria, I think Marshal Brücher is no longer suitable to serve as the commander of the Far East Military Region. You should send someone to bring him back, and his current position will be temporarily replaced by General Olga, waiting for the new commander.
Members have arrived." Stalin's cold words fully showed his mood at this time.
"What about the request for additional troops from the Far East Military Region?" Beria asked carefully.
"This question is not yours to ask. It is a matter for the Chief of General Staff of the Red Army. Comrade Beria, you just need to do your own thing." Stalin's sharp words cut off Beria's words without mercy.
Qi Nian.
"Yes, Comrade Stalin." The member of the Anti-Counterrevolutionary Committee carefully withdrew.
After a while, a general with the rank of general walked in from the door. He saluted Stalin and said, "Comrade Stalin, Commander Timoshenko of the Kiev Front is here to report. I wish you good health."
"Comrade Timoshenko, you should be very clear about the reason why I called you here. What do you think of the current situation in the Far East Military Region?" Stalin asked directly.
"We can only increase our troops," Timoshenko said without hesitation.
Stalin stared at his most trusted subordinate and friend for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay, now you can move the troops of the Kiev Front to the Far East."
"Okay, but I need a month." Timoshenko thought for a while and said.
"No, I can only give you half a month," Stalin shook his head: "Our opponents will not just sit and wait for you to arrive. You must seize the time to mobilize all your forces to transport troops."
General Timoshenko thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, but I will send two more pilots. I heard that the Chinese Air Force fighter planes are very advanced. I must ensure that they can be suppressed."
"No, I can only give you one. You have to know that Germany on the other side is our main enemy." Stalin and Timoshenko were bargaining like vegetable vendors in the vegetable market, that is, Timoshenko.
He was a close friend of Stalin, otherwise no one else would have dared to talk to Stalin like this.
"Okay, you must remember to drive them out of the great Russian territory." Stalin said harshly.
In the trading city in China, Zhukov and his hastily escaped troops had just fled here. They were followed closely by the Chinese pursuers. At this time, a Stuka flew over and saw Zhukov and his party.
Following his whereabouts, a few bombs fell down in one dive. With a few loud "booms", dozens more soldiers fell down. After throwing the bombs, the Stuka flew away again.
It was this kind of airplane again. Zhukov's hands were held tightly together, and he didn't even feel his nails digging into his flesh.
During these days of escaping, Zhukov and the others firmly remembered this strange-looking aircraft that did not even retract its landing gear when flying. They were like a group of tarsal maggots, following them closely.
, dropping a few bombs from time to time to guide their ground troops.
Zhukov and the others can now dream about the sharp siren of this kind of aircraft even in their dreams at night. Some soldiers could not bear it and surrendered to their pursuers halfway, and some simply chose to commit suicide. Those who escaped with Zhukov originally
The team of more than 6,000 people now only has more than 2,000 people left.
"Comrade Commander, let's go there quickly. Once we reach Kyakhta City, it will be our Russian territory. The Chinese army should not dare to pursue it." The chief of staff, who had been loyally accompanying Zhukov, advised.
"Okay, let's go there quickly." Zhukov forcibly cheered up and took the lead. As long as we reach Kyaktu City, we will be safe.
In the eyes of some people, it is natural for them to enter other people's territory, and if others enter their territory, it is an unforgivable and unforgivable crime. No matter what kind of coat they wear on these people, they can
In their hearts, hegemonic thoughts still dominate their thinking and actions.
