Chapter 601: Preparations Begin
"Tell Fu Zuoyi to clean up his tail there! Prepare for the next battle. ”
Meng Xiang looked away from the giant cannon's console and whispered.
He also quickly learned about Zamyn-Uud, which led to the bombardment of the cannons.
But it was only symbolic of two artillery shots per Soviet Russian artillery position, and the return fire there was basically over.
Fu Zuoyi violently used some reserve forces to fight back with all his might, and Meng Xiang didn't have anything.
These hidden forces were originally controlled and commanded by the front-line commanders, and there are many more forces that others do not know. And Soviet Russia will never believe in the strength of the vanguard army.
In the course of the battle against the Japanese, the Vanguard had already demonstrated a lot of more fierce weapons. It was only the logistical difficulties that made the Russians relaxed. And this time the violence of covert firepower made the Russians breathe a sigh of relief.
"Huaxia people are nothing more than that!" The commander of the 17th Army, Romanenko, said sourly.
At this time, when he heard that nearly 200 artillery pieces on the front line had been destroyed, including more than 70 heavy guns, he could only rush at the fat man like this.
Because the 17th Army's defensive tasks at the outer gate G became larger, its establishment was also adjusted to four infantry divisions, three self-supported infantry brigades, two self-supported tank brigades, and three fortified areas. The scale is already very large, but even so, the number of heavy artillery pieces of the 17th Army is only about 100, which are basically planted on the chasm position, and now there is no more than half of it, which makes Romanenko also heartbroken.
"At least I knew the hidden strength of the Huaxia people, I didn't expect them to have so many artillery!" The commander of the 15th Army next to him, Cheremisov, said comfortingly.
The 15th Army was subordinate to the Far Eastern Front, and since the 17th Army was under pressure from the vanguard army, the Far Eastern Military District placed a division of the 15th Army near Nomenkan to take over the defense there. With the start of the war between Huasu and the Soviet Union at the outer gate, the 17th Army concentrated its military forces and focused its attention on the vicinity of Zamyn-Uud in the center.
There was no war near Nomenkan because of this time and space, and the Japanese strategic shift, but the defense was not strict. The 15th Army, because of the deployment of the Far Eastern Front, also concentrated the main forces in the center.
"Yes, since the Huaxia people have lost their strength, the next step is much easier!" Lukin, the commander of the 16th Army next to him, also agreed. His army group also came to the outer gate G. In the placement of the commander of the Far Eastern Front, General Apanashchenko, ten divisions of the three armies were the main forces that dealt a head-on blow to the vanguard.
Just now, the majority of the three group armies were discussing specific cooperation plans, and a detailed battle report from the front line came.
The news of the destruction of the supporting artillery, Romanenko already knew, but the specific situation was not very well understood. The news that slowly gathered later told him more things. In the face of the double impact of the vanguard army from the overwhelming heavy artillery and the sky, it is normal to be destroyed. But even if the vanguard army wiped out all those artillery positions, it was inevitable that nearby troops and agents and spies would leak the situation of the new artillery positions of the vanguard army. As a result, Soviet Russia grasped more of the placement of vanguard armies. This is also something that Romanenko is thankful for.
Knowing the hidden artillery positions of the vanguard army, it also mastered more initiative. And the three armies that came with it had more heavy artillery.
"Well, although there are vanguard activities on the west and east sides, the traffic of those local responsibilities is enough to make the Chinese people get lost in the grassland, so we still focus on the middle lane. Now it's the turn of the Huaxia to try our thousand guns. Romanenko nodded and snorted coldly.
"Now the city of Zamyn-Uud is in ruins, and it's a headache to defend it!" Sun Lanfeng grinned.
If it is the turn of the garrison, Fu Zuoyi can be regarded as a master of the domestic garrison, and his ability to defend the city after becoming famous in the Battle of Zhuozhou is recognized by everyone. And Meng Xiang's order to Fu Zuoyi was precisely to defend it, which made Sun Lanfeng a little unbearable. According to intelligence, the troops of Soviet Russia to the north are gathering one after another. In his opinion, it should be unexpectedly attacked and killed all the way, at least after breaking the Saiyin Shanda first, and then it is not too late to defend it.
At the beginning, he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the devils and took his new 31st Division and the new 32nd Division to recover Wuyuan in one go. At this time, with a more well-equipped vanguard army, he was absolutely confident that he would be able to directly defeat Saiyin Shanda with his motorized division alone.
"A hundred miles of running, one day can be broken! Sun Lanfeng had asked for a military order before, but Fu Zuoyi refused, and still used the big hat of Meng Xiang's order to buckle him, making him aggrieved, and he couldn't help but be imprisoned at this time.
Fu Zuoyi glanced at him and didn't make a sound. He knew about the entire battle plan, but in order to avoid the accident of leaking, especially the changes that might be caused by the names of several people known to Meng Xiang in later generations, the Seventh Army was limited to two or three people.
The entire battle plan at the beginning..."Fu Zuoyi, who knew the situation in Meng Gu, also intervened, and he had already prepared for Meng Xiang's order.
"It's good to run for a hundred miles, and once our trucks and tanks are opened, it's easy to shoot them down in a day or two.
However, it is even more difficult to guard. Although the construction of the railway behind it was being accelerated, far water could not quench the thirst of the near, and it was still difficult to transport ammunition to Zamyn-Uud, let alone extend more than 200 miles away. When the time comes, the Russian army will attack and the food and ammunition will run out, how will you defend the city? Next to him, Chen Bingqian answered first.
Sun Lanfeng smiled and didn't say anything more. The other generals of the Suijin army knew the temper of this chief steward and adviser, and they did not answer. As for the clone officers that Meng Xiang inserted, they resolutely carried out Meng Xiang's orders. For a moment, the crowd was silent.
After Fu Zuoyi glanced at it, he began to slowly set up the situation of the garrison.
"Laying minefields everywhere and preparing for trench defense artillery is no longer negligent this time.
The artillery fire of the Russians was stronger than that of the Japanese. Fu Zuoyi reminded. After the shelling of Zamyn-Uud, it also reminded everyone in the vanguard army that they paid more attention to the artillery fire of Soviet Russia.
"It is necessary to pay attention not only to the vicinity of Zamyn-Uud, but also to Hongger, Chagan Aobao and other places to avoid outflanking the Soviet Russian army from the road. Although it is not the focus of our defense, and it can be abandoned at a critical time, as long as it is the land of China, not an inch of land can be trampled by Lao Maozi! Finally, in the banquet, when the generals stood up collectively, Fu Zuoyi also stood up and said in a deep voice.
On the chasm, both sides are busy. The vanguard army was busy planting and defending its positions, and the Soviet Russian army was busy mobilizing its troops, trying to succeed with one blow.
"The Chinese people's railway was built so fast that the roadbed connecting Saihantala and Zamyn-Uud began to lay tracks!" Commander-in-Chief of the Far Eastern Front, General Apanashchenko, exclaimed. The Russians also set a record of building more than 200 kilometers of railways in more than 50 days, but this record was quickly refreshed by the Chinese.
"They've been prepared for a long time. Exploration and foundations have been put in place, and with so much manpower invested there that there are too many people to do, it's not unusual to build it quickly! Lieutenant General Smorodinov, the chief adviser of the Far Eastern Front, said so lightly, but he was still very envious of the manpower superiority of the Chinese.
"No further delay, Comrade Smorodinov, hurry up and rush to Urabaatar today to prepare for the battle." Apanashchenko commanded resolutely.
"Yes, make sure you get the job done. It's just that in terms of logistics, the commander still needs to be urged personally! "Smorodinov has known about this appointment for a long time, and he doesn't care, he just has a headache about the logistics now. Seeing that the war is about to begin, many strategic materials are still underprepared.
"I'll push again!" Apanashchenko also had a headache, because the confusion caused by the secrecy of the premises and the preparation of the front army in the Transbaikal Military District at this time also presented a lot of problems with logistics. Some tools also need to be deployed from the Far Eastern Front. That's one of the reasons why Apanashchenko stayed.
Smorodinov also knew the difficulties, and the matter had come to this point, so he could only salute and say no more.
"Russia is ready to act!" Meng Xiang read this piece of information from the General Headquarters of the Far Eastern Front for a long time and handed it to Fan Chong.
"It's a lot of logistical pressure!" After reading it, Fan Chong reminded. Such a large-scale preparation, especially the placement of the follow-up plan, the logistical pressure ahead is reflected.
"Is it preparation for an attack from behind?" Meng Xiang looked at him and smiled, "Don't worry, we already have it."
Regarding the question of the base, he could not give a detailed explanation, and could only pretend to be mysterious.
He slowly stood up and looked out the window for a long time before turning back to Fan Chong and saying, "We're ready to start too!" ”@。 @ko
