Qin Cheng naturally has enough confidence to dare to make such bold words. Now the battlefields in the north and south of Kurgan have stopped waiting for him to open the transportation channel. Just as the Russians guessed, Wang Shizhen certainly does not
Before taking Kurgan, we will order the three armies to continue the risky attack. If we fail to defeat this side, a blizzard blocks the road, not to mention the supply of ammunition, or the supply of food supplies, something big will happen.
The right approach is to act slowly and steadily.<><>Novel
Three armies including the 7th, 9th, and 11th armies have stopped. After the Ninth Army captured Tyumen, its target was Kamiansk. The Seventh Army crossed the Bozar River downstream and attacked Shadlinsk. Now it is also
has stopped. Their goal is also Kamiansk. After joining forces with the Ninth Army, they will attack Yekaterinburg northward, but the prerequisite is that they must capture the Kurgan, and then transfer the materials transported by railway from here to the Bozar River.
Tyumen, and then change to railway transportation from Tyumen.
After the Eleventh Army of the Southern Front captured Kostanay, it was unable to continue forward. Their transportation was even more difficult. Now not only cars but also transport aircraft were needed to barely maintain the low load consumption of this army. To attack forward was
It's definitely impossible. In fact, even if they capture Kurgan, they can only go north and attack Chelyabinsk together with the First Army.
The vast land of the Russians was their best barrier. As later generations described them, they retreated, retreated, and retreated again, retreating until winter, retreating until the attackers were dragged to the end of their crossbows by the long distance, and then counterattacked. History
Last time they used this trick to drag down Napoleon to death, and later they dragged Mustache to death, but this time, their opponents were obviously more powerful, but they themselves had been dragged to death by four years of war.
It is a great thing for Qincheng that all other armies have stopped, because all combat resources can be given to him, including bombers. At the four military airports along the railway behind, there are a total of 600 Thunder and Bombers assembled.
Eagle, and further away in Pavlodar, there are also the latest forty Liberators transferred to him. Now the domestic aircraft manufacturers are working hard to produce this kind of aircraft, although Emperor Yang cannot reach the level of World War II.
The production level is several thousand or tens of thousands of aircraft a year, but a hundred aircraft a month is still acceptable.
In addition to bombers and water tank cannons, twenty 540 cannons were aimed at a series of Russian fortresses on the other side of the Bozar River. Not to mention the 280 howitzers, each of the heavy cannons could even hit him.
He shudders just looking at it. He can use other rocket launchers, heavy rockets, large fire-breathing tanks, degas bombs, white phosphorus, coagulant decoys, and all kinds of cruel weapons at his disposal, and the First Armored Division is attached to fight, so
After his attack began, the Russian troops in Kurgan were even stunned. They had never imagined that there would be such crazy firepower.
Countless bombers overhead took turns to attack, carrying out high-altitude horizontal bombing and low-altitude dive bombing, heavy bombs plus coagulation decoys, and occasionally white phosphorus bombs and shaline bombs. They smashed over their heads with all their might. A huge door with terrifying dimensions on the ground.
The cannon sprayed a long muzzle flame, and the cannonballs weighing hundreds or even thousands of kilograms fell one by one with a unique roar. The earth-shaking huge explosion turned every fortress into ruins. The burning fire reflected the sky red.
"This is called domineering. As the emperor said, as long as the hammer is heavy enough, there is no turtle shell that cannot be smashed. As long as the strength is strong enough, all enemies can only be wiped out." Qin Cheng looked at Kurgan who was ignited by him.
Satisfied, he said to the generals beside him that as a close confidant of His Majesty the Emperor, he naturally had a deep understanding of His Majesty's combat thoughts.
This desperate preparation of artillery fire lasted for three hours. It was not until the more than 200,000 Chinese soldiers on the east bank of the Bozar River became impatient that he issued the order to attack, followed by those with relatively small calibers.
Small heavy artillery began to provide cover with barrage, and the attacking armies from all directions rushed towards the Bozhar River like a torrent that burst its banks. On the bombers hovering in the sky, pilots stared at the ground with their eyes wide open, ready to attack at any time.
Strike at the remaining firepower points.
The remaining Russian soldiers on the Bozar River defense line who had not yet awakened from the brutality of bombers and heavy artillery were using all the weapons they could find in the ruins of fortresses and in the cold and muddy trenches.
They fought desperately until they were blown into blood mist by artillery shells, broken into pieces by the large-caliber machine gun bullets above their heads, or simply burned into curled carbon blocks by coagulation bombs, or smoked into dead bodies by shale poison.
As for their enemies, their losses were minimal. As soon as the Russian machine guns roared and the artillery sprayed out flames, attacks from the ground and the sky would come roaring in the shortest possible time. Even those infantrymen as long as they were slightly more together could
If they come together, they may attract brutal artillery fire. As for strafing from planes overhead, it is simply not worth mentioning.
Such a battle made those Russians extremely sad and angry. They were confident that they were better than the enemy. This was not a boast. The one sent by Nicholas to guard Kurgan was the most elite group army. They were all veterans from the European battlefields.
Many officers have even been honed on the cruel battlefield for four years. In their opinion, the Chinese on the opposite side are not as accurate as they are in shooting, their movements are not as agile as theirs, their reactions to attacks are not as fast as theirs, and they even have less tactical coordination.
It's not as good as them, but damn, who can stand it when they fire at the same rhythm as a machine gun and throw heavy bombs at the same rhythm as throwing grenades?
Of course, they can only be sad and angry. They have no aircraft or super-large-caliber heavy artillery. The largest artillery is the 280 gun bought from China, but this kind of artillery is not available in Kurgan. They are all on the European and Ottoman fronts.
For Nicholas, the battlefield here is still too far away, and it is still too early to truly threaten him. Naturally, it is impossible to put the most precious weapons here.
Moreover, they did not have tanks, and even if they did, they would not dare to use them. Facing the recoilless artillery shells and rockets fired from the opposite side, the survival rate of those Lynx tanks was so low that it was tearful.
The artillery shells fired by these infantrymen are the most hated thing by Russian soldiers, and of course there are flamethrowers. The combination of these three things is simply a nightmare for the infantry. The former attacks from a distance and the latter makes a sneak attack, opening the hole to sweep with the flamethrower.
Almost no fortress can survive this combination, and of course they don't know that something more ruthless is waiting for them behind.
Under the double blow of the sky and the ground, the Russian defense line on the west bank of the Bozar River quickly collapsed one by one like a tofu project in an earthquake. The speed was so fast that even the Kurgan garrison commander Ka
General Legin felt caught off guard, but fortunately he did not expect that the river could really block the enemy. His main defensive front was only the urban part of Kurgan, and the outward extension was only auxiliary, just a group army.
There was no way he could play any real river defense.
His real core of defense is the urban area of Kurgan, with countless overt and underground reinforced concrete fortresses, interconnected tunnels, the scattered buildings in the city, and even the cellars of residents.
Relying on defense, the city has been completely fortified. Hundreds of thousands of migrant workers recruited from the surrounding areas completed this arduous project in one and a half months.
"Fortress? Huh, what a strong fortress? Can a one-ton shell explode? If not, can it be replaced by a one-and-a-half-ton shell? What else can't explode with just over half a ton of explosives?" Qin Cheng sneered.
explain.
He really has a bomb weighing a ton and a half. The Russians are building a lot of construction in the Kurgan. Of course, this cannot be hidden from the Chinese reconnaissance planes that fly over their heads every day. Besides, it is not that there are no Chinese spies in the city. Although the Russians are not aware of this kind of thing.
The grasp is very tight, let alone the Chinese, as long as they are yellow in Russia, they will basically end up in concentration camps, but the problem is that Emperor Yang does not need to use Chinese as spies, even if there are many Russians willing to serve him
of.
Originally, the General Staff really had a headache. After all, the time on the front line was limited, and it was difficult for the water tank cannon to truly cover the Kurgan due to range issues. However, Emperor Yang made the hammer bigger to allow the flexible minds.
Li Yuncong thought of a tactic to deal with this kind of ground rat. It was very simple. Make the bomb bigger. The Liberator bomber has a maximum bomb load of nearly six tons and has two one-and-a-half-ton pylons, so he asked the arsenal to
A one-and-a-half-ton bomb was urgently developed, and His Majesty the Emperor was specifically consulted. Under the guidance of Emperor Yang, more than 600 kilograms of passivated black soot gold and aluminum powder were stuffed into it. The first batch of 100 bombs was shipped to Pakistan by air.
Vladar.
And then, the Russians will have a taste of the largest bomb in history, and it is said that Emperor Yang is also preparing to develop a larger one, and a Liberator bomber can carry at most one.
Poor General Kaledin didn't know this. As the Kurgan defense lines were breached one after another, the attacking Chinese soldiers gradually began to encircle the city. The real battle between the two sides began, and the defense system he had worked so hard to build finally began.
Play a role. The Chinese soldiers attacking the Kurgan city encountered extremely tenacious resistance. The Russian soldiers hidden in bunkers and even under the ruins met the invaders with intensive firepower. The Chinese soldiers advanced with the tanks.
Their casualties began to rise sharply. Although they had huge advantages in equipment, when the battle turned into close combat, the effect of these advantages immediately decreased sharply. After all, neither bombers nor heavy artillery dared to use it at this time.
There is one thing that has an obvious effect, that is, those vehicle-mounted heavy-duty rockets. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
