At five o'clock in the morning of May 21, the Soviets were forced to withdraw before dawn, and the artillery superiority of the squadron still suppressed the Russians, which made the Russians very jealous. The retreating Russians helped their comrades back to their positions in the dark of night, replenishing ammunition and food, and everyone was lifeless, not knowing how far this war would go.

This is only the sixth day of the battle, but the difficulty of the Kizil fortress is far more difficult than Blyukhel and other Soviet Russian military officers expected, this is a harder bone than Tsaritsyn, the Chinese are extremely well prepared, I don't know how many shells and bullets they hide here, the Russians are completely relying on their lives to fight with the other side's firepower.

Gui Ermao, the acting platoon commander of the 82nd Brigade, retied the wound again, and then asked Yang Lixin to follow him to count his subordinates, as well as eighteen people, of which seven of the ten recruits who came up died in battle, and two veterans died in battle, and one veteran never woke up because he was wounded.

And Wu Chuyu, who was a little greedy for life and afraid of death, although he was just pressing bullets and carrying ammunition for everyone, preparing grenades and other trivial things, but there was such a monkey cub to help everyone do things, which made the battle much more efficient.

It's just that the comrades-in-arms around him died one by one, and everyone's mood gradually declined, Gui Ermao suddenly said to Wu Chuyu: "When I die in the future, you have to remember to go to the Martyrs' Shrine to worship me, and burn me some paper money every year." ”

"Squad leader, you ......" Wu Chuyu didn't know what to feel in his heart, Gui Ermao suddenly kicked him and said, "." Live well. Wu Chuyu looked up at the squad leader's dark smiling face and smirked.

"Brothers, come. Sing, sing. Gui Ermao suddenly shouted, "Come to a song of eighteen touches, who will sing it?" ”

"Platoon commander, I can sing." Yang Lixin immediately shouted.

"Let's have a song, let's have a song." Everyone shouted, and Gui Ermao smiled: "Little monkey cub." It turns out that you still have this ability, okay, you, let's have a song. ”

"Okay. Everyone, listen, I, Yang Lixin, also went to the Huizhou opera troupe to study in my early years, but I was expelled for singing this little yellow song. ”

"Nobody listens to your. Hurry up and sing. ”

Yang Lixin wiped his face. Dancing and singing, "Beat the drums and beat the gongs slowly, stop the gongs and listen to the singing, and all kinds of gossip also sing, and listen to me sing eighteen touches." Reaching out to touch the edge of my sister's face, the dark clouds flew for a long time, reaching out to touch the front of my sister's head, the heavenly court was full and addictive. Reach out and touch my sister's hairy bay. Scattered outside, he reached out and touched his sister's little eyes. Black eyes, white and white eyes. Reaching out to touch my sister's little nose needle, I burned my breath and went outside, and I reached out to touch my sister's little mouth, and the baby's eyes smiled slightly......"

"Good song!" The brothers on the other positions also shouted, and it was rare for the battlefield to regain the breath of some living people.

After dawn, the baggage soldiers who delivered the meal hurriedly brought breakfast, and at the request of the soldiers, all the food was pasta and sweets. Two days ago, in order to ensure the problems of everyone's body during the battle, the baggage battalion also made soup and stew for everyone, and the result was that everyone saw too many dead corpses and pieces of meat during the day, and then received the broth and stew, and they couldn't eat anything one by one. Now the brethren in the baggage battalion have also learned wisely, trying not to cook meat during the battle, and making a lot of sweets to ensure energy.

During the day, two road aviation bombing divisions came to bomb the Soviet army, but the Soviet army already had experience in dealing with space, and heavy machine guns were aimed at fire, three Chinese road air Kirin 2 bombers were hit, two crashed and exploded, and one plane was injured and crashed on the way back. This move elated the Soviet soldiers, who believed that victory was imminent.

And the Sakhalin legionnaires, who were sitting in the desert watching in the back, couldn't help but be enthusiastic when they saw this feat, and they asked to join the battle. With Blyukher's permission, more than 10,000 soldiers of the former Tsarist Janissary and now the Soviet Army Bukharin's regiment took up their weapons and rushed to the position to join the Russian infantry, preparing to fight the Chinese soldiers.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Kolchak planned an attack and was again defeated by the tenacious Zhong**.

On 21 May, a rather bad thing happened for the defenders of the Kyzyl fortress, as several wells in the city were blown up after days of fighting, and the water supply for the whole army was in trouble. The squadron immediately made preparations with two hands, one hand was to dig a well, and the other hand was to break through to the south and get a water source close to the Syr Darya River. At this time, a Russian spy suddenly threw the rotting corpses of dead people into the well, and the few wells in the city could no longer be eaten. Du Baosan ordered Wang Yuan of the Military Affairs Department to strictly investigate and find Soviet Russian spies, and on the other hand, he had to start digging new wells for food.

In order to prevent the squadron from recapturing the water source, the Soviet army stationed a large number of troops near the Syr Darya River, and Du Baosan even sent a tank unit over, but was blocked by the tenacious Soviet army, and thirty tanks were blown up by Soviet human bombs and ten were destroyed. In order to avoid greater losses, Du Baosan had no choice but to withdraw the tank, and the gap between the forces of the two sides became more and more obvious. After two days of hard fighting, a large number of Chinese soldiers were killed and wounded, and the field hospital was already full of wounded, and now all the lightly wounded have gone to the front line, and the field hospital only accepts the seriously wounded.

"It's not easy to mess with opponents." Du Baosan smiled bitterly, "I thought that the opponent would collide with the head of the stone, and the brain of the ground collapsed, but I didn't expect that our stone was not strong." ”

Chief of Staff Tong Lin said: "After all, they fought the civil war for seven years, and before that, they fought the European war for another four years, and many Russian officers have more than ten years of war experience. If it weren't for the fact that we occupied the right place at the right time, I am afraid that we would have been attacked long ago. ”

"How's the ammunition stockpile?" Du Baosan asked.

Chief of Staff Tong Lin replied: "You can hold out for half a month, but the casualties of the soldiers are not optimistic, nearly 6,000 people have been killed, and there are still many seriously injured soldiers in the night battle hospital, I'm afraid ...... Not anymore. ”

"The enemy's casualties are ten times greater than ours." Wang Yuan gritted his teeth and said.

Tong Lin shook his head and said, "As far as I know, the enemy's casualties are not as large as we thought, but they should be at least four times more than ours. ”

"It's not worth it." Du Baosan said, at this time, Sun Liechen ran in in a hurry, and saw that the kettle on the table didn't matter who it was, so he took it and drank it all in one gulp, and then said: "Junzao, let the brothers rest and rest, I haven't closed my eyes for two days and two nights, and I can't stand the iron beating." There is no problem with the brothers fighting, but the rest is not good, Lao Maozi keeps attacking, they have hundreds of thousands, and we only have tens of thousands. ”

Du Baosan nodded and said, "Chief of Staff, give an order to Division Commander Zhao to change the guard at twelve o'clock tonight, and the 39th Division will be stationed, so that the 29th Division can rest and wait for an opportunity to counterattack." He looked at his watch and said to Sun Liechen: "Master Sun, there are still six hours to go, can you hold on?" ”

"Yes!" Sun Liechen gritted his teeth and returned to the front-line command post, several brigades sent signal troops to Sun Liechen at the same time to ask for reinforcements, and the forward troops were reduced by one-third, if it weren't for the resilience of the Chinese soldiers, this battle would have been lost long ago. "it, tell them, there are no reinforcements, hold on until before 12 o'clock in the evening, and the 39th division changes guard at 12:39." Sun Liechen shouted, and after conveying the order, Zou Fen, a staff officer of the division, said: "Some places are indeed not good, I will personally lead the team to support." ”

"Where did you get the soldiers?" Sun Liechen said strangely, "I have to take the teaching regiment (supplementary regiment) out of the army, what kind of unified training of the teaching regiment, I cāo his grandmother's, which bastard came up with the reorganization plan." If Lao Tzu has a teaching group, do you still need to scratch your ears and cheeks here? ”

Zou Fen said: "The engineer battalion and the baggage battalion, I will prepare them, I will take the three engineer battalions to the front, and the baggage battalion will be left for you." ”

Sun Liechen worried: "Engineer battalion? Will the shovel bearers do it? ”

"Don't underestimate the sapper battalion." Zou Fen said with a smile, "These boys are also a group of northwest wolves. ”

"Okay, there you go." Sun Liechen said, "Remember, hold on until twelve o'clock in the evening, brother...... You...... Stay safe. He suddenly had some intestinal pain, held his stomach, and Zou Fen hurriedly asked, "Master, ...... are you?"

"It's an old problem." Sun Liechen gritted his teeth and took out the black pill from his pocket, swallowed it, and it took a long time to stop the cold sweat. Zou Fen asked, "Are you sick...... How did I not know? ”

"I didn't want to be so strict these days." Sun Liechen endured the pain and wiped his sweat, and smiled reluctantly: "I am a disease of wealth and nobility, and I didn't have such pain when I was in the Central Plains, but it hurt as soon as I arrived in the Western Regions." ”

"I'll call the medic." Zou Fen said.

Sun Liechen shook his head and said, "Them? Surgery, anesthesia, cut-off or something is okay, I'm afraid they can't do this kind of gastrointestinal disease, I have medicine here. ”

"Are you alright?"

"It's okay, don't think too much about my chief of staff." Sun Liechen smiled heartily.

Zou Fen advised: "You are the backbone of our 29th Division, take care." ”

"Long-winded." Sun Liechen said with a smile.

Zou Fen walked out, and there were rows of Wehrmacht soldiers standing in the courtyard, and the officer on duty clicked, all nine hundred and thirty people from the three engineer battalions were here, and none of them fled in fear of fighting. Zou Fen nodded with satisfaction, and said with a faint smile: "You shouldn't go to the battlefield, you are engineers, you are operational troops, but the battle situation is urgent......

Rao Chong, the commander of the 84th Brigade Engineer Battalion, immediately said: "Chief of Staff, you are soldiers first, and then you are engineers, why do you look down on them?" "Most of the 29th Division is composed of Shaanxi people and some Suiyuan people, and they speak in a northern Shaanxi accent, and Rao Chong is a veteran among the Shaanxi people. As the leader of the veteran soldiers, Rao Chong was very popular in the army, and as soon as he shouted out to many soldiers, he immediately shouted: "Chief of Staff, why do you look down on people, we can also fight with shovels." ”
