Chapter 504: Double Fists (Second Watch)

The plain between the Jingqili River and the Wudi River is like an equilateral triangle in the topography, with the Jingqili River and the Wudi River on both sides, and the remaining veins of the Outer Xing'an Mountains on the other side. The six clusters of the Russian army in Milyutin who were trapped in the middle were also distributed in a triangle along the terrain, with the central cluster where Milyutin was located in the center, and the other five clusters on the periphery forming a triangle to protect him in the center.

The central cluster where Milyutin is located has the strongest troops, about 70,000 men, and the Petrov and Mishanin clusters near the Udi River on the east side are also relatively strong. The Rudnev cluster covering the rear and the Vadudin and Lidyukov clusters on the flanks have relatively few troops, both of which are about 20,000 people.

At present, the 2nd Cavalry Division of the Manchurian Army is moving south from Uskotiye, just cutting off the central cluster and the Rudnev cluster. The 4th Division cut off the central cluster from the Vadudin cluster. Because of the wrong deployment of Goxinga's troops, while cutting off the enemy, the two divisions were actually suffering from the enemy on their backs. The Lidyukov group had intended to advance westward to support the follow-up troops, but was entangled in three brigades of the Third Army Group that had left Suchuna. The battle situation west of the middle line is generally that you have me, I have you, and the two sides are entangled. However, the 2nd Cavalry Division of Giljanga was facing the central cluster of the Russian army, and although the 4th Division was responding from the side, it was also more difficult.

The battle on the Eastern Front was a little better, and the Sixth Division, which cut in from the northeast, not only blocked the route of the Russian army's eastward advance, but also flanked the central cluster of the Russian army from the flank and rear, sharing a certain amount of pressure on the Western Front. The 7th and 11th Divisions blocked the Petrov Group and the Mishanin Group, and although the Petrov Group had suddenly disappeared, the easternmost Mishanin Group tended to be annihilated under the combined encirclement and suppression of the two divisions. After receiving a blow, the Russian army returned to the west with all its might, so that the center of gravity of the Russian army was biased towards the western front, which made the western front of the Manchurian Army, which had a balanced deployment of troops, frequently urgent.

The Manchurian Army can still withstand on the Western Front, and the East and West are almost completely victorious, and there is still great hope for the total annihilation of the Russian army. But there is also a missing Petrov cluster on the battlefield, and the 40,000-strong army is gone, but it is very dangerous. If the main force of the Manchurian Army marched westward with all its might after annihilating the Mishanin cluster, and Petrov suddenly appeared out of that clumsiness, the Manchurian Army's rear path would be unstable. And if Petrov fled to the southeast in a desperate gamble, the railway lines on which the Manchurian army relied could be destroyed.

"To change the battle plan, we must concentrate our forces, let our troops form a fist, defeat an enemy if we seize an enemy, and not give the Russian army a chance to pull us into a positional war!" How many supplies Miliujing brought, Guo Xing Ah couldn't figure it out, in case people could spend the winter here, Guo Xing Ah Ke would be blind. Moreover, since it has used interspersed detours and taken the route of division and encirclement, Guoxinga must fight quickly.

"What is the situation of the militia in front of the branch?" Goxinga did not deploy troops, but asked about the militia first.

"General, 100,000 militiamen have assembled in Hailan Pao and Yaksa to complete the defensive deployment. But they are also militia no matter how they say it, and although they have received military training, they are afraid that their actual combat effectiveness is still not good. Xing Cong also thought that Guoxinga was going to send militia to participate in the war.

"As long as you can hold the rear!" Guo Xinga nodded.

After confirming that the militia was in place, Guo Xing'a stopped talking, lit a cigarette, and began to gesture to the sand table. There is still a certain risk in the sudden transfer of troops that are already in the line of fire, and Goxinga has to consider the actual situation of the various departments. Like the Second Cavalry Division of Gilzhanga, it will definitely not be able to move at the moment, and if it is forcibly mobilized, it is likely to give Milyutin a chance to break through the defensive line and break through.

"Let the 6th Separate Cavalry Brigade in the Khingan Mountains valley advance eastward, cooperate with the 4th Division, and solve the Rudnev cluster as soon as possible. The 7th Separate Cavalry Brigade on the south bank of the Chingkili River crossed the river to the north and cooperated with three other brigades to annihilate the Lidyukov cluster. The 2nd Cavalry Division of Gilzhanga stood still, and let the 6th Division attack the central cluster of the Russian army from the flank and rear with all its strength, and share the pressure for him. The 7th and 11th Divisions, leaving nothing at the moment, focused on annihilating the Mishanin cluster with all their might. After smoking three cigarettes, Guo Xing'a finally made up his mind again.

"General, the Xing'anling access road and the southern ......" Xing Cong was startled, Guoxing'a changed a little fast, just now he refused to mobilize the two cavalry brigades guarding the rear and the retreat of the Russian army!

"It's the meat that eats in the stomach, don't care about the rest first, it's a big deal to let him escape with tens of thousands of remnants, we can also send cavalry to chase after it, and we can only kill a few of them if we keep consuming it!" There are 100,000 militias in the south, even if they can't fight in the field and have fortifications to rely on, they can still delay the defeat of the Russian army. "Guo Xing'a is an extreme person, and if he wants to do it, he doesn't think about the cost.

"There is also a Vadudin cluster between the 4th Division and several independent brigades, and there are arrangements on both sides, I am afraid that they will take the opportunity to break through." Xing Cong felt that the general should not forget such a large cluster of Russian troops.

"Let the divisions fight quickly, we have to rush for time, the fourth division and several independent brigades with superior forces, flanking the enemy's Rudnev and Lidyukov clusters, should soon have results. As long as they are in the war, they will immediately advance north and south, and then encircle and annihilate the Wadudin cluster. "Guo Xing'a didn't forget, but he really didn't have any cards, so he could only fight for speed.

"General, this plan is too idealistic, as long as it slows down, the Vadudin cluster will definitely run away." Xing Cong didn't believe that Wadudin would react so slowly.

"Where would you run if you were Vadudin?" Gohinga also seems to agree with the assertion that Vaduddin will run away.

"Cross the Jingqili River and flee west!" Xing Cong was stunned by Guo Xing's question, this is an obvious thing.

"Whoa! You know so much! If you don't know the deployment of our army, and you don't know the situation of the Russian troops in other departments, will you still flee west? Guo Xing'a asked again.

"No, I'll move closer to the main force of the central cluster." Xing Cong suddenly understood that this was a problem of inertia.

Because Xing Cong knew that the Manchurian army east of the Jingqili River had not been deployed, and he also knew that the Russian troops in the other divisions were finished, he ran westward and tried to escape to the outer Xing'an Mountains. But Vadudin didn't know any of this, he didn't know what was going on with the other allies, and he didn't know which direction was safe. After being surrounded by the Manchurian army for so many days, Vadudin must have felt that there were Manchurian troops everywhere, and the only safe direction was the direction of the central cluster, which had a large number of troops.

"After the 4th Division annihilated the Rudnev cluster, it encircled and annihilated the Vadudin cluster as much as possible, and if the Vadudin cluster had already run away, they would merge the independent brigades and the 2nd Cavalry Division to form the Western Route Army and launch an attack from the southwest to the central cluster. After the 7th and 11th Divisions encircled and annihilated the Mishanin cluster, they joined the 6th Division to form the Eastern Route Army and launched an attack from the northeast to the central cluster. "Goxinga's plan is to clear all the small shrimps and then the whole army to surround Miliujing.

"General, what to do with the vanishing Petrov cluster?" Xing Cong felt that Guo Xing'a had played again, and he didn't leave any reserves at all, in case Petrov suddenly appeared, the Manchurian army would be passive.

"Let the aviation continue to search, his more than 40,000 people will not be able to hide for long. When these peripheral troops are cleared, our troops will be abundant, and he will not be able to make any waves when he comes out. Even if he runs out halfway, I'll clean him up myself. "Goxinga doesn't care at all.

"By the way, bring Changlu here!" Xing Cong couldn't persuade anymore, and was about to convey the order, but Guo Xing'a was about to transfer troops again.
