Chapter 1084: The Doomsday of the Forward of the Soviet Far East Army
The doomsday artillery fire from the Soviet Far East Army's vanguard ceased, and the gunfire ended...
The battle lasted for less than half an hour. With absolute superiority in troops, artillery fire, and equipment, the 46th Army won the entire annihilation battle without any surprise.
At the headquarters of the Forty-sixth Army located at the rear of the battlefield, the 136 troops who successfully retreated were division commander Xie Yunhui, commander of the tank regiment directly under the army Li Wentian, and commander of the heavy artillery brigade Zhang Wentian... Several of them were excitedly looking at Commander Chen Hong in front of them.
Report the specific results achieved by the entire annihilation force.
"Report to the commander, in terms of infantry, we captured a total of two lieutenant colonel Lao Maozi officers, five major officers, and 872 other lieutenants and ordinary soldiers. As for those who were seriously injured on the battlefield, according to the old rules of our army, all of them were retained.
On the battlefield, leave it to the follow-up main force of Lao Maozi to handle it on their own. After all, in such cold weather, as long as you are seriously injured, there is basically no possibility of recovery. Instead of wasting precious time on these Lao Maozi, it is better to let them wait
die…."
"In addition, in terms of equipment, we also seized 249 Soviet-standard light and heavy machine guns, 3,289 rifles and submachine guns, various mortars, and 29 light mountain guns. As for ammunition, there are no specific statistics..." Commander of the 136th Infantry Division
Xie Yunhui reported with excitement.
"Captain Li, what about the tanks?"
"The Lao Maozi Heavy Tank Brigade has more than 170 tanks. Except for the 24 tanks that were overturned by artillery shells and were completely captured by us, the remaining equipment was all destroyed... As for armored vehicles and military trucks, Commander, I cannot
Needless to say, we took a big advantage in this battle of annihilation..."
"More than 300 military trucks and more than 120 armored fighting vehicles used by the Soviet Union to transport infantry and ammunition were all parked at the rear of the battlefield because they did not participate in the attack. After the battle, they were completely captured by our tank regiment.
....A total of 328 military trucks and 127 armored fighting vehicles..." Li Wentian ordered with the same excitement.
"What a damn job. With so many cars and armored vehicles, our 46th Army can form a mechanized division..."
"Old Huang, what are you still doing? Calculate the results immediately and report them to the Central Committee... In the past few hours, I, Chen Hong, have finally seen a victory. I should make the head of the Central Committee happy..." The excited Commander Chen Hong said,
He ordered directly to the Chief of Staff Huang Liqing beside him.
"Commander, don't worry... I will report the victory to the central government right away..."
Of course, being able to be appointed as the commander of the main force guarding the border of Inner Mongolia, this victory did not make him get carried away in any way. After a brief excitement, he directly focused his attention on the huge combat sandbox in front of him.
He asked the combat staff who were busy around the sand table.
"Commander Wang, how long will it take for the follow-up troops of the Soviet Far East Army to arrive on the battlefield?"
As soon as Chen Hong finished speaking, a small red flag representing Lao Maozi's forward follow-up troops was planted on the sand table. Then, he spoke to Chen Hong and others in front of him.
"Commander, according to the latest intelligence sent back by the reconnaissance battalion, all the infantry following Lao Maozi are advancing on foot. In addition, there are more than a hundred large-caliber artillery that need to be transported. The troop's marching speed is not fast. According to the current
Formed, there is still half an hour before we can reach the battlefield."
"Half an hour is enough for us to deploy..." Chen Hong said to himself confidently.
Hearing the words of Army Commander Chen Hong, 136 Division Commander Xie Yunhui, who had just tasted the sweetness of an annihilation battle, asked directly with a bright face: "Commander, are you going to annihilate all Lao Maozi's follow-up troops..."
Seeing Li Wentian's hot gaze following him, Chen Hong did not hide anything and said directly: "I do have this idea..."
"The task given to us by the Central Committee is to hold back Lao Maozi's forward troops here, and constantly attract Lao Maozi's main troops to reinforce here. To show off to the main force of the Soviet Far East Army, our army is preparing to carry out a major battle here.
The intention of the decisive battle..."
"In this case, what I mean is: Instead of holding back these more than 10,000 old men here, it is better to do a more direct approach and annihilate them all here. Use the disastrous defeat of the enemy's forward troops to completely anger the Soviet Far East.
The main force of the Soviet Far East Army. Once our goal is achieved, plus the troops stationed from all over the country that are constantly gathering here, I can be sure that the main force of the Soviet Far East Army will definitely rush towards us like a kitten that smells fishy smell.
....." Chen Hong said with expectation.
And just as Army Commander Chen Hong finished speaking and had finished delivering the victory report, Chief of Staff Huang Liqing, who was walking in quickly, said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Commander, I have no objection to annihilating the forward troops of the Soviet Far East Army... I
I'm just worried that our strength is insufficient... After all, in an encounter a few hours ago, the 137th Division of our army that took the initiative was defeated directly by the assault of the Soviet heavy tank brigade... "Although the Soviet Union only has two
An infantry brigade and a heavy artillery brigade. However, according to the establishment of the Lao Maozi Infantry Division, these three brigades not only include six infantry regiments and three artillery regiments, but also two tank battalions and two armored battalions.
….What’s more important is that Lao Maozi’s follow-up troops must be equipped with a large number of anti-tank artillery, plus at dawn, the Soviet Far East Army will have a steady stream of air support…” Huang Liqing said directly with a worried look.
Army Commander Chen Hong nodded noncommittally, but as he was full of confidence in himself and his troops, he did not show any worry because of this, but said confidently.
"Old Huang, you are right. Whether it is in terms of troops, artillery, or even heavily equipped tanks, we do not have any advantage compared with the follow-up troops of the Soviet Far East Army's forward. However, there is one thing you
What I didn’t expect is that we are the hosts and Lao Maozi is the guest, and we are fighting on the inside. Another point is that we are in the open and Lao Maozi is in the dark..."
Having said this, Chen Hong directly said with a mysterious face: "This advantage is not big, but it is not small. As long as we can make good use of it, we can turn against the enemy during the battle and completely dominate the entire battle process.
.I believe that the final victory must be our 46th Army..."
Seeing that the army commander had made the decision to fight a war of annihilation, Xie Yunhui and others were happiest. As soon as Chen Hong finished speaking, Xie Yunhui's expectant and excited voice rang out.
"Commander, tell me how we should fight... This time, I, Xie Yunhui, will definitely capture Lieutenant General Lao Maozi and the division commander for you..."
"Why is it your 136th Division... Commander, you can't be partial. In the battle just now, the 136th Division has already launched a main attack... - This time, the main attack mission, no matter what, must be handed over to me 138
Division..." The commander of the 138th Division, who had been standing nearby without speaking, quickly spoke up, unwilling to lag behind.
In an instant, the entire military headquarters was like a vegetable market, with commanders at all levels quarreling over the main attack mission.
Looking at the red-faced subordinates arguing in front of him, Chen Hong spoke...
"Okay, let's stop fighting... This time there are more than 15,000 Lao Maozi. Are you still worried that there will be no enemies to fight... Everyone, don't worry, everyone has a share in this war of annihilation..."
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Hong's face, waiting for Chen Hong's next words.
"Now I command..."
"The heavy artillery brigade...the heavy artillery regiment directly under the military headquarters...immediately deployed four artillery positions in regiment units...with the cooperation of the military headquarters' operational staff, all shooting targets were set on the only way to pass by the Soviet Far East Army. Once
The Lao Maozi artillery unit enters the shooting area and fires at me immediately..."
"Today we will give Lao Maozi a preemptive strike, and first kill the heavy artillery brigade that poses the greatest threat to us..." Commander Chen Hong ordered with a serious face to the heavy artillery brigade commander Zhang Wentian in front of him.
"Commander, please rest assured, the heavy artillery cluster is guaranteed to hit the target with the first shot. Use the fastest rate of fire to destroy the Lao Maozi heavy artillery brigade..." Zhang Wentian answered very confidently with an excited smile.
"Well... time is tight, so go ahead and deploy..." Chen Hong nodded and ordered.
Looking at Zhang Wentian who was leaving quickly, Chen Hong immediately turned his attention to Li Wentian, the tank regiment leader who would play a key role in this annihilation battle, and ordered...
"Commander Li, your tank regiment will secretly ambush me in this area... Once the artillery fires, they will immediately launch an assault on the Soviet Red Army on the road. Using the rapid assault of the tanks, more than 10,000 old Maozi infantrymen will be directly attacked.
Divide it into two. And hold the position and block the road where the two Soviet troops meet... When the time comes, the security regiment directly under the military headquarters will cooperate with your actions..."
"Promise to complete the mission... Commander, I'll go down and prepare first..." Commander Li Wentian replied cleanly and hurriedly walked out of the military headquarters.
Finally, Chen Hong turned his attention to the two teachers who were looking forward to it, and said: "Lao Xie, Lao Xiao... you also heard the order I just gave... You can choose between the front and rear. As for the old guys,
Which lieutenant general and division commander will fall into depends on your luck..."
This time, Xiao Yusheng, the commander of the 138th Division, learned the lesson wisely. Before the commander of the army, Chen Hong, could even finish his words, he spoke directly: "Lieutenant General Lao Maozi, commander, will definitely select the troops to act as the vanguard... I, the 138th Division, will choose the rear group... As for the front...
Yes, I’ll give it to you...how about it?"
"I agree..." Now that he has had a meal of meat, Xie Yunhui, as a colleague, of course will not care about this matter, and directly expresses his agreement without any hesitation...
And at this moment, on the pitch-black vast grassland, like a rolling torrent, the forward follow-up troops of the Soviet Far East Army crashed into the 46th Army station. They had no idea that there was a huge crisis and conspiracy just in front of them.
Waiting for their visit.!~!
