Chapter 973: China Wins
The unit headed by Yu Wensong frantically penetrated into the large ranks of the Soviet army and directly took the command center of the Soviet army. Of course, Yu Wensong's original purpose was only to disrupt the enemy's retreat, but he didn't expect that this was the last straw that broke the camel of the Russians.
The 13th Infantry Brigade, which has always had a very poor sense of direction, had a ridiculously poor sense of direction this time, because their sense of direction was even worse this time, because they ran directly to the headquarters of Blyukhel under the leadership of Yu Wensong, a brigade commander like a madman.
Blyukhel was at this time working out a retreat plan with all the officers, as well as an assault plan, and they were preparing to break through in four ways, and the Chinese did not have an absolute superiority in strength, and it was impossible to besiege their 150,000 troops. At the same time, when everyone was busy with the more than 50,000 wounded in the army, no one expected that a group of Chinese madmen would run faster than a horse with their legs and kill the headquarters of the Eastern Group Army of the Soviet Russian Red Army in one go. When Blyukhel heard the gunshots, he thought it was a misfire, until the guards drove over the car, told them to get into the car, and told them that a Chinese team that was not afraid of death quickly attacked the headquarters.
"Eat them." Blyukhel said coldly.
"Comrade Commander, we can't eat them, this gang is too powerful." Aleyan said helplessly. Before he could finish speaking, the gun station exploded around the headquarters, and the guards said that it was too late to leave, and Blyukhel was depressed and ordered the other officers to lead the team at once, and he was not accustomed to making cars, and at his insistence he got on a group of Donhippos and retreated backwards.
The Russian Red Army, which was taken straight to the heart, was in chaos, while Wang Jiejun, the commander of the 3rd Division, and Hou Dingxian, the chief of staff of the 10th Division, discovered the chaos of the Soviet Army at the same time. They immediately launched a fierce attack on the Soviet troops, one left and one right. Although the Kyzyl defense commander Du Baosan suffered heavy casualties among his troops, he still sorted out 5,000 soldiers and took only 20 tanks and 10,000 troops from the 93rd Brigade of the 32nd Division to participate in the encirclement and suppression battle. They used tanks as a weapon interspersed. The constant division and encirclement of the Soviet army forced the Soviet army to not be able to form a large-scale counterattack force. GUO Buluo. As a cavalry general, Rong Hai commanded a tank for the first time, and was immediately attracted by the tank's high mobility and powerful armor and firepower, and even volunteered to demote himself to the commander of the tank battalion.
After fifteen days of fighting, the 250,000 Soviet Central Asian cluster center and right wing troops were only 133,000 people left, and now even more chaotic was that under the surprise of the Chinese, they could not find the commander-in-chief Blyukhel, the chief of staff, and the general political commissar.
On the afternoon of May 29th. The 16th Cavalry Division, under the command of the commander of the 142nd Cavalry Brigade Zhao Ajiu, defeated the Soviet 13th Cavalry Division and the Kazakh Far Eastern Cavalry Division, broke through the defense line of the Soviet cavalry, and suddenly appeared in the rear of the Soviet army. The 16th Cavalry Division was like the last dagger in the hands of the matadors, and the orderly retreat of the Soviet troops was completely disrupted. The chaotic Soviet soldiers were killed by the squadron. Prisoners, fleeing, many Soviet soldiers were forced to jump into the Syr Darya River and go downstream, in a vain attempt to escape.
The 1st commissar Melnikov led the remnants of four divisions with a total of 21 thousand people and fled to Mount Yejisterkara. They were lucky enough to break through the defenses. Into the desert.
Blyukhel fled backwards with part of the guards and other infantry gathered on the road, encountering the 13th Cavalry Division and the Kazakh Far Eastern Cavalry Division on the way. These two cavalry divisions were originally to encircle and suppress the 16th Cavalry Division of the Chinese National Defense Force, but under the leadership of Zhao Ajiu, they ambushed and broke through the two divisions, and the two divisions were defeated. Now the two cavalry divisions together amounted to just over 3,000 men, and after Blyukhel immediately consolidated all his troops, he was met with more than 6,000 miscellaneous troops led by the commander of the 1st Smosousk Infantry Division, Aleyan.
The second commissar Bosshev was lost during the battle, and after the war, after an examination, he fell off his horse and died on the spot with a fractured cervical vertebrae.
Chief of Staff Sollinsky organized a group of more than 300 people, which was surrounded and suppressed by the Chinese. Sollinsky fought to the end and committed suicide by drinking bullets.
The commander of the 3rd Infantry Division of the Urals, Yenisev, was captured by the Chinese.
Kolinyakov, the chief of operations of the senior staff of the Soviet Army, was beheaded by the saber swept by the cavalry of the 16th Cavalry Brigade, and his identity was found on his officer card. But his head was mixed with the heads of other slaughtered Soviet soldiers, and it was impossible to distinguish them.
The battle lasted from the 29th to the 31st, and the supply problems of the Soviet troops forced the troops to face the Chinese bullets with bayonets, and from time to time there were skirmishes, but to no avail. Beginning on the 30th, the mass surrender of Soviet troops began.
The commander-in-chief of the defense of the Kyzyl fortress, General Du Baosan, accepted the surrender of the Soviet soldiers, and under the city of Kyzylorda, witnessed by more than 200,000 people, the Soviet troops began to surrender in an orderly manner. The Chinese flag fluttered high on the Kizil fortress, the Soviet prisoners of war raised their hands and lined up in a line to surrender, and the six division commanders of the Soviet army surrendered, but all the Bolshevik commissars in the Soviet army were pulled out individually.
Subsequently, Du Baosan suddenly ordered Tong Lin, the chief of staff, to bury the Bolshevik commissars alive under the city. In the presence of 63,000 Soviet prisoners of war, 2,000 Bolsheviks were buried alive. Du Baosan said coldly: "These people are the people who have the most resolute attitude towards us, and our attitude towards these people is to fulfill your wish to die, and we will never let them grow old in disappointment." Prisoners of war, I am here today to tell you that all the enemies who fight against China will be defeated. China has risen, China can no longer be insulted, you have to look at China from a different angle, you have to re-understand the center of the world, China! ā
After Wang Maoru learned that Du Baosan ordered the massacre of 2,000 Bolshevik prisoners of war, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, this Du Baosan is simply too unscrupulous. However, it is no wonder that Du Baosan ordered the slaughter of prisoners of war, before the start of the war his Yellow Dragon Legion and other garrisons of 44,000 people, now only 19,000 remain, and it is not known how many of these 19,000 people will survive in the subsequent treatment. All he saw with his eyes were his brothers who had died in battle, and they were all his wounded soldiers, and he couldn't give up without the anger in his heart exuding.
After the 13th Infantry Brigade of Yu Wensong's department returned, Wang Jiejun was so angry that he gave him two big slaps, but after the fight, he hugged him and cried bitterly and scolded: "You eight lambs, you almost died in the desert." Yu Wensong choked up and was silent, and personally sent a telegram to the military region headquarters and the Ministry of National Defense, requesting punishment.
At the time of Wang Maoru, the Ministry of National Defense immediately sent a telegram back, saying that the war had not yet stopped, and that Yu Wensong would not deal with it for the time being.
After leading some of his soldiers to break through the siege and organize the army, Blyukhel regrouped his 17,000-strong force and retreated towards Askana. On the way, they encountered Melnikov's 20,000 troops, who were also retreating, and about 1,000 Russian soldiers died in the desert due to wounds and supply problems, of which the most were wounded and killed, and more than 400 deserters. The two armies decided to retreat together while considering how to report to the Kremlin.
On the way, Blyukhel reported to the Kremlin: "We underestimated the determination of the Chinese in Central Asia, and at the same time, due to the failure of the intelligence services, our army was restrained by the squadron step by step." At the beginning of the tenth day of the battle, the encirclement unit of the squadron suddenly appeared, and the rear supply base of our army was destroyed. Our army lost about 100,000 men in this battle, but the Eastern Army still had 300,000 troops, and our army only lost the battle, not the strategic one. Therefore, I built yƬ to continue to exert pressure on the Western Regions of China to force the Chinese to abandon the Western Regions and return Central Asia to us. I am willing to take responsibility for the defeat of the Heart of Central Asia campaign, and I hope to regroup in Astana and fight again in the first team. "Judging by the numbers, Blyukhel has concealed the losses, and he hopes that the leaders will continue to support him.
Moscow's reply to him was to quickly assemble troops in Astana, not to act rashly until the Kremlin gave an order, and to wait for a final decision. Subsequently, the Kremlin issued an order to the troops entering Central Asia, and the Soviet troops all retreated, not to make contact with the squadron, and waited for orders.
On June 3, the twelfth year of the Republic of China, Ren Yuanxing, commander of the Western Regions Military Region, reported to the Ministry of National Defense in Beijing that the last gunshot in the Western Regions was over, the war was over, and the two sides returned to their original borders.
The Soviets were defeated, defeated under the Kizil fortress, and at the Battle of the Heart of Central Asia, they sent 300,000 troops into Kazakhstan with great vigour, and now there are only 120,000 (including Saragaev's 60,000 troops). Blyukhel lied when he reported it again, and they had lost nearly 200,000 troops - even much more than that.
The war was over temporarily, and Ren Yuanxing immediately sent a telegram to Wang Maoru and said: "Our army has won a complete victory!" The next day, Ren Yuanxing sent another telegram: "The Soviet Kadistov Corps suddenly retreated to the north, and the Soviet Seresev Corps retreated west to the western region of Turkmenistan. ā
"We've won, Xiushuai." Jiang Fangzhen said excitedly.
Yong Xingbao was lying on the sand table, counting a qiÄ, and suddenly he howled and cried without warning, and this forty-one-year-old man immediately attracted everyone's ideas. Yong Xingbao, as the earliest public student in the Qing Empire, his greatest wish in life was to defeat the great powers and revitalize China, and now that he has fulfilled his wish, how can he not let him cry with excitement, he raised his head and shouted: "The Chinese have defeated the Russians, and the Chinese have defeated the Russians!" ā
There was a burst of joy in the Wehrmacht command center, and everyone hugged each other excitedly.
