While the city was actively preparing for war, the Siberian Corps of the Far Eastern Army also encircled the city. Numerous brigades of the Mongolian reserve militia, which had arrived with the main forces, also began to carry out bloody sweeps of towns in the area near Moscow.

The eight main cavalry divisions of the Siberian Corps also began to make a large-scale recuperation and at the same time prepared for an offensive. The troops are currently in an extremely weak state.

After the troops were deployed under the city of Moscow and the encirclement of Moscow was completed, many officers and men of the unit slept for 15 or 6 hours at a time, and some soldiers even slept for 20 hours during the period of rest.

In 12 days, the Corps' eight main cavalry divisions marched nearly 1,000 kilometers, which was definitely a very severe challenge to the officers and men. Fortunately, the officers and men overcame many difficulties, and all the troops rushed to the assembly area within the stipulated time.

It took two days for the troops to recuperate before they were back in their best condition. However, the Siberian Corps did not immediately attack, because the follow-up supplies were still on the way, including a large number of four-wheeled wagon convoys full of supplies, and a large number of airships of the airship unit, all of which were constantly transporting supplies to the front line from the rear.

The Siberian Corps of the Far Eastern Army quickly swept the area west of the Ural Mountains, also controlled the rivers of the countries in this region, and captured a large number of ships. These ships were collected by the logistics units of the Far Eastern Army, and they used the developed water and land transportation of the Kara, Volga, Okka, and Moskva rivers to deliver supplies to the Moscow front.

The logistics units of the Far Eastern Army, with the assistance of the engineer units, used the steam-powered units lifted by the airboat units to carry out simple modifications to some Russian ships, and installed steam-powered units to make some of the captured unpowered ships. Transformed into a steam-powered ship.

Each simply modified steam-powered ship was connected to a dozen ordinary non-powered ships to form a fleet, loaded with various supplies, and along the Kara River, Volga and other rivers, the rear supplies were transported to the Moscow front.

The airship force mobilized a large number of airships. A large number of heavy artillery, ammunition, and artillery officers and men from the rear were hoisted to the front line.

In addition to the eight main cavalry divisions, the troops involved in the capture of Moscow also had a large number of combat and logistical support units. Among them, artillery units are absolutely the top priority.

Hundreds of airships delivered hundreds of artillery pieces to the Moscow front day and night, including 105-mm assault guns, 75-mm mountain guns, 120-mm mortar guns, and 107-mm guns and arrows.

In order to increase the intensity of firepower, the Far Eastern Army specially mobilized four D30 122-mm howitzers and four 100-5-mm recoilless gun jeeps from Shenyang as barrier-breaking equipment for the main assault force to open the breakthrough of Moscow's strong city defenses.

In order to ensure the smooth capture of Moscow's strong fortifications, the Far Eastern Army not only allocated a large number of artillery units to the participating troops, but also mobilized a large number of airboat units. There are more than 300 Type 32A airships and dozens of the latest Type 39 eight-engine large airships.

In order to meet the needs of the ground troops, the airboat units of the Air Force Department of the Far East Army not only equipped the airships with various types of ammunition, such as explosive bombs, incendiary bombs, special bombs, gas bombs, and submunitions, but also prepared a large obstacle-breaking bomb for the main assault troops.

This large-scale barrier-breaking bomb weighs 1,000 kilograms, is equipped with a physical ground-penetrating warhead, and is very powerful, and is specially developed by the Far Eastern Military Factory for troops to overcome strong city defenses, and is being tested in various tests before production is finalized. The data performance in all aspects is very good, and this is the first time that this kind of large-scale obstacle breaking bomb has participated in actual combat.

Except for the airship troops. The Air Department also attached 10 ********** aircraft groups to the Moscow front, with a total of 240 ********** aircraft. Front-line tactical bombing and support for ground forces in the battle for the capture of Moscow by the main forces.

In addition, the Far Eastern Army has not yet transferred nearly three whole regiments of engineering units to this campaign, which are attached to the sharp knife units of various assaults as front-line combat engineering units. Equipped with a large number of explosives and various obstacle breaking equipment. Supporting ground assault forces quickly opened a breakthrough on the front line.

After several days of active preparations, and thanks to the continuous efforts of the ground logistics troops, surface transport units, and airboat units, all kinds of materials were delivered to the front line, and all preparations for the Moscow campaign were finally completed.

On the outskirts of Moscow, the stars shine in the war room of the headquarters of the Siberian Corps. Gao Jianguo and Li Ming, as well as Commander Song Tao and Commander Qiang Quansheng of the West Field, as well as the commanders of the brigade and above of the various units of the Siberian Corps, all gathered here to attend a military meeting on the attack on Moscow.

Wang Yaowu, commander of the Siberian Corps, and Shang Ming, chief of staff of the Corps, respectively made a final statement on their plans for conquering the Moscow Campaign, and assigned tasks to each unit in detail.

After listening to the statements of the two, Gao Jianguo nodded and said: "This time, the eight main cavalry divisions of the Siberian Corps carried forward the tenacious fighting style of our Far Eastern Army, overcame many difficulties, and completed the task of interspersing more than 1,800 kilometers in only 24 days.

In particular, most of the troops of the four newly built cavalry divisions were recruits who had joined the army for about a year, but they still did not hold back the troops, and they all stubbornly rushed to the troop assembly area on time and at the specified time. I am very gratified, and this shows that all the grassroots units of our Far Eastern Army pay attention to the building of the work style of officers and men in their work in peacetime.

I hope that in the upcoming battles, all units will continue to carry forward the tenacious fighting style of our Far Eastern Army, be unafraid of sacrifices, bravely kill the enemy, and strive to conquer Moscow in the shortest possible time. Finally, I would like to stress that after the assault force has opened a breakthrough, the follow-up troops should quickly follow up and sweep away the remnants of the enemy in the city as soon as possible. You should not have any scruples, and first of all, you must ensure the safety of the lives of the officers and men of the troops. ”

After the military meeting, only Gao Jianguo, Li Ming, and the principal responsible persons of the Military Commission were left in the war room of the headquarters.

"Paralyzed, it's finally hit Moscow, I think Lao Maozi is unhappy, it's been a long time."

Everyone laughed when they heard Song Tao's words.

Qiang Quan Sheng also smiled and said: "It's a pity that there are no death troops on the front line, if those guys are here, they will be entrusted with the combat task of sweeping the city to ensure that the task is completed with quality and quantity." ”

Gao Jianguo said with a calm face and gloomily: "The task of sweeping the city of Moscow is the same for handing over the task of sweeping the Outer Northeast Indigenous Cavalry Division and many Mongolian reserve militia brigades. Before the war, I had to emphasize to them the importance of sweeping the city, so as not to get ink. ”

Li Ming said with a smile: "Don't worry, the officers and soldiers of the Outer Northeast Indigenous Cavalry Brigade and the Mongolian Reserve Militia Brigade will not be soft when they enter the city." Let's wait and see. (To be continued.) )
