Volume 3 Thousands of Ancient Miraculous Achievements Chapter 496 Bloodthirsty Demon King Zhang Zhuwu
After receiving the news, Staff Officer Fan was surprised and kept running all the way, which shows how amazing this news is. He gasped and said anxiously: "Report, the information is reported by the 11th Cavalry Division, and according to the information of their prisoners, we know that the enemy's large army has withdrawn, and the estimated time of withdrawal is yesterday and the night before yesterday. In other words, they have withdrawn for two days in a row, and Division Commander Long Qing is now leading the 11th Cavalry Division to pursue the enemy's large forces. ”
Everyone looked at each other, how could the war situation develop like this, we arranged the script, we have announced the action, and all the qiē have developed according to the prediction in advance, but they found that the male protagonist slipped away, how could they escape so shamelessly!
Thinking that they had escaped or that the outflanking cavalry had discovered it first, Wang Maoru was furious and scolded: "How did the Air Force investigate? How did the Three Thousand Ancient Miracles Chapter 496 Bloodthirsty Demon King Zhang Zhuwu investigate? Bastard! Bastard! ”
Staff Officer Fan carefully explained to the Air Force: "It is said that they withdrew overnight, the night before and last night, and there was no movement at all during the day, so they confused our Air Force reconnaissance unit. ”
Part of the retreating Soviet 1st Army was overtaken by the Chinese 11th Cavalry Division, and fierce fighting ensued between the two sides, but they retreated too quickly and reached the periphery of Berkrovsk, when they saw the Russian refugees fleeing from Berkrovsk and learned that their rear roads had been cut off by the enemy. The Soviets launched a wave of attacks, but they were stubbornly resisted by the 3rd Division of Ren Yuanxing, which occupied Berkrovsk, and at the same time sent a telegram to the headquarters that it had occupied Berkrovsk and was under heavy attack by the enemy, requesting reinforcements.
After receiving the telegram asking for help, Wang Maoru ordered the Third Division to delay the enemy for at least three hours, and the 11th Cavalry Division immediately arrived overnight to support, and at the same time told his 1st, 7th, and 15th Divisions to temporarily encircle the enemy, rest the whole army for the night, and hand over these Soviet troops to the Russian Imperial Allied Army tomorrow.
At this time, on the Tatar steppe in the night, the ** squadron of the Volga Army of Tsarist Russia fought on three battlefields at the same time, Chapter 496 of the Bloodthirsty Demon King Zhang Baowu.
In the steppe battlefield east of Magern, the 6th Division and the Turkic Cavalry Division were encircling and suppressing the 1st and 5th Divisions of the Russian Turkestan Cavalry Division, and the two sides fought from morning to night. The Soviet cavalry took advantage of the darkness to break through the strangulation battle, and the 6th Division sent a regiment of infantry, untied the iron chains between each other in cars, and removed the steel plates, and pursued the escaped Soviet soldiers with the Turkic cavalry. On the battlefield, the sound of Soviet prisoners being tortured and killed constantly resounded in the grassland.
On the frontal battlefield of Mags Town, more than 60,000 people from the first, seventh, and fifteenth divisions of the squadron were besieging the enemy's 49th Infantry Division, and resisted the enemy's overnight breakthrough, and at the same time narrowed the encirclement. However, due to the influence of night, the heavy artillery and field artillery of the Chinese could not provide support, which gave the Soviet Russian army a respite. They dug trenches overnight and actually built the location of the 49th Division into a strong earthen city.
On the Berkrovsk battlefield, Ren Yuanxing's 3rd Division was engaged in a bitter battle with the assault troops of the enemy's 1st Army, and the 11th Cavalry Division came to support it on horseback and engaged in fierce battles with the Soviet troops on the periphery.
At this time, the Russians' support forces also arrived from all directions, and their Volga flotilla quickly returned from upstream to support. In order to return to Saratov, the Russians requisitioned all civilian ships for the transportation of troops. The 29th Russian Division, composed of guerrillas on the steppe, was originally preparing to attack the Belarusian Uralsk under the command of the division commander, but after receiving a distress signal, it also had to support from the Ural River to the west. The Russian Army Group South also sent two divisions of troops to Saratov and Berkrovsk to support it. The loss of tens of thousands of troops was not a big deal for the Russian government, but the loss of an army group would be a huge blow to their morale, and so far there has not been a situation in which the entire army group has been surrounded and annihilated.
After the 3rd Division of the Chinese Intervention Army entered Berkrovsk, it quickly cleared out half of the Soviet infantry regiment that remained behind. Without waiting for Ren Yuanxing's order, Zhang Zhuwu, commander of the Ninth Cavalry Brigade under his command, ordered all the citizens and Soviet prisoners who participated in the resistance squadron to be hacked to death by the Volga River with sabers, and when he killed the prisoners, he specially asked the citizens to come and watch, and threatened: "This is the end of angering the Chinese, beheading!" ”
In fact, the saber is not suitable for beheading, and there are only about 20 people who have really been beheaded, and the remaining 600 people are all thrown into the river and drowned after cutting off their arteries, but Zhang Jianwu's bloodthirsty characteristics are once again revealed. He licked the blood on the saber and spat on the ground, and this scene was seen by all the Russians present, and even decades later, when the memory of the Chinese and Berkrovsk citizens was mentioned, the image of the black uniformed yellow general who licked the blood on the saber would appear. The massacre caused great panic among the citizens, who fled one after another, met the withdrawing Russian 1st Army, and brought them news of the occupation of Berkrovsk.
The commander of the Russian 1st Army, Gay, was so anxious that he ordered the entire army to attack with all its might, and the army must take Berkrovsk by May 7. The remaining six divisions of the Russian 1st Army took turns attacking Berkrovsk, and Ren Yuanxing's headquarters gradually lost their positions during the night, and in the morning they counterattacked and recaptured.
The three brigades under Ren Yuanxing's command, including two infantry brigades and one cavalry brigade, were Wang Jiejun's 3rd Infantry Brigade, Shu Hejun's 13th Infantry Brigade, and Zhang Baowu's 9th Cavalry Brigade, all of which were 7,000 full brigades, plus 2,000 division headquarters, totaling 23,000 people. However, only more than 16,000 people could be used in the defense, and Zhang Zhuwu's cavalry brigade was not suitable for defensive warfare in the city, so Ren Yuanxing ordered Zhang Baowu to go out of the city and let him wait for the opportunity to find fighters to support the battle in the city.
After receiving the order, Zhang Pingwu led the cavalry out of the city, and took advantage of the dark moon and high wind to come to the Black Forest east of Berkrovsk, and learned that the Soviet army had soldiers in the Black Forest. So Zhang Zhuwu ordered the forest to be burned without thinking about it, he was worried that the cavalry encountered the Soviet army running out of the forest to attack him, but his troops could not enter the forest to pursue the enemy. The cavalry cannot exert its speed advantage when encountering woodland, and without the speed advantage, the cavalry is a target.
However, resting in the woods were the Berkrovsk Armed Workers' Brigade and the Saratov Armed Workers' Brigade of the 1st Army of Soviet Russia, both of which were not composed of serious soldiers, but support units formed spontaneously due to the passion of the workers, and their biggest role on the battlefield was to be responsible for transportation, similar to the Chinese laborers during the European War.
In fact, apart from the old officers, there were not many professional soldiers in the Soviet army, but many of these passionate workers and soldiers went to the front because of the propaganda of the Bolsheviks to protect Russia and resist foreign invaders. After they fled from Magern, their morale was low, and they were even more frustrated when the back road was cut off, so they chose a place near the woods to set up a camp to rest for a while.
But what he didn't expect was that Zhang Jianwu directly lit the Black Forest because it was dark and the situation was unknown, and by the time the Soviet Russian workers' army found out, it was already in flames, and the entire Berkrovsk battlefield could see this raging fire. They fled in a hurry, and were discovered by Zhang Pingwu's scouts.
"Good guys, brothers, listen to me, this guy ran away for one, I punished you for not drinking for a day after returning home, running two, not drinking for two days, if you run a thousand, you will wait for me to transfer you when you have wine!" Zhang Jianwu shouted frantically.
"Don't worry, there's no one missing!" The soldiers replied bloodthirstily.
The character of a unit is often marked with the traces of the main general, Zhang Paiwu is a bloodthirsty general, and his soldiers are also learning to be bloodthirsty, especially most of his cavalry are Mongols and banner people (the northern banner people, including the current Dahaner people, Oroqen people, Evenki people, Manchus, etc., are known as the straight people who gave birth to daughters in history, and are not the same as the people who walked birds and monkeys and smoked big cigarettes in the customs), and the other half of the Han people are also brave and warlike people in the north. After being influenced by Zhang Baowu, these people rushed forward like crazy when they saw blood one by one.
"Kill!" Wielding a sword, Zhang Baowu led the Ninth Cavalry Brigade to rush to the Soviet Berkrovsk Armed Workers' Brigade and the Saratov Armed Workers' Brigade, which had just escaped from the fire.
Many Soviet workers and soldiers simply lay on the ground without tents at all, and the fire ignited in the night, and they even ran to the Chinese in a panic, and were hacked to the ground by the rushing Chinese cavalry, and then trampled into flesh.
Screams and shouts rang out, blood stained the earth, severed arms and stumps nourished the land, and only screams echoed between heaven and earth, and a temporary army of more than 4,000 unarmed Russian workers died on the edge of the forest twenty kilometers east of Berkrovsk, and the small river flowing through the forest was also cut off by the broken limbs.
"Hurry, hurry." Zhang Jianwu said, "If you succeed, you will withdraw, don't fall in love with war." ”
Such a big fire, even the blind knew about it, and the Soviet rescue team immediately rushed. Before the Russian army came to the rescue, Zhang Jianwu led the cavalry brigade to flee south, and met a Soviet guerrilla force at dawn, and completely annihilated the guerrillas. And when the commander of the Volysk Infantry Division, who arrived at the scene, saw more than 4,000 comrades who had been killed or burned to death, he knelt on the ground and wept bitterly.
Severed limbs, charred corpses, young Russians, unwilling eyes of slaughtered prisoners of war, all the soldiers of the Soviet Russian army who rushed to support cried. In the midst of this cry, there is a kind of hatred brewing in it. Afterwards, these Russians who witnessed the "Black Forest Massacre" all hated Chinese to the core, and even their own people, the Bolshevik Chinese fighters of the Soviet Russian Central Regiment, were extremely hostile and eager to kill all the yellow people!!
