Chapter 607: Preemptive Strike

"Tomorrow at 5 a.m., the general offensive will begin!" The commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front, Apanashchenko, who personally ran to Ulabaatar, looked at the watch on his wrist and looked up solemnly.

Smorodinov, the chief adviser of the Far Eastern Front, glanced at his Chinese-made watch, and then hesitated for a moment: "Now the personnel on the front line are not very in place, do you have to wait another day." ”

Even if the Russians rushed over with all their might, the reality of the result was reality, although more than 300,000 troops had arrived in Outer Mongolia, but only 100,000 people were set up on the front line. The focus of this attack is still on the middle lane, except for about 50,000 people placed on each side of the tools, the other more than 200,000 people will be placed in the middle lane. The only way to do this is to follow the road from Ulabaatar to Zamyn-Uud. A large number of troops crowded on this road, and the rest were also crowded into Ulaanbaatar and other places.

According to reliable sources, there are more than 100,000 people in the vanguard army there, close to almost 100,000 people, and Smorodinov has been calculating for most of the day, but he still feels that he has no bottom in his heart.

"After the war starts at the front, the rear can be transferred inexhaustibly!" Apanashchenko glanced at him and said with a blushing face.

"Tomorrow is the 26th, and there must be a result before the 28th." Military political commissar Zhertov also said with a straight face next to him.

Smorodinov immediately stopped talking, the 28th was an order directly pressed down from above, and he also guessed the meaning behind it. It's just that with such a placement, I'm afraid that the casualties on the front line will undoubtedly intensify. Even many troops have just arrived, and I am afraid that they will be pushed to the front before they have gained a firm foothold.

But he also knew that for the Soviet Russian army, the bigger crisis was a problem of logistics. Just for the sake of the build-up of troops and weapons, all the transport forces were crowded, and even people could not be transported, let alone those logistical supports. The front line may be able to fight a large-scale charge, but if it is delayed for too long, I am afraid that ammunition and supplies will be exhausted. If there is a result of all prices within three days, it can also ease up a little.

"I can only have a result before the 28th!" He sighed inwardly.

……

"Number 26?" The news quickly reached Meng Xiang's ears.

"Zi's actions are considered to be as good as possible, but there are still 100,000 troops concentrated in Kulun, and the next step is not easy to do!" Regarding the placement of Soviet Russian troops in Outer Mongolia, Meng Xiang also had a general understanding. There is enthusiasm for a great transfer of thousands of miles to Stalin with a wave of his hand, but whether it is Siberia or Outer Mongolia, the transportation conditions are limited, and even in later generations, it is not easy to organize and coordinate during such a large transfer, let alone now. The Soviet Russian army was able to run to Outer Mongolia according to the predetermined plan, and in Meng Xiang's opinion, it was already a miracle under such conditions.

But behind the miracle, there is also the scattered organization of the army, the supply of logistics is not enough, and in this situation, the Soviet Russians even decided to initiate an attack, which is absolutely arrogant.

"Looks like Stalin hasn't been forced to do this, right?" Meng Xiang expected it unexpectedly, but he knew that there must be other elements of domestic political struggle behind such an order, and not just to consider the pressure of the Huaxia and the Germans.

"I'm afraid, we will have to adopt the third set of plans, so that Fu Yisheng needs to support it for an extra day or two!" Fan Chong couldn't help but sigh after reading the new information handed over. The vanguard army had already undergone detailed inquiries and research, and with Meng Xiang's points, Fan Chong also had an objective understanding of the military strength of Soviet Russia, not only limited to their defeat in Finland.

The ferocity of Soviet and Russian artillery fire has also become clear recently. If it were on this scale, the Soviet Russian counterattack would be extremely violent. The vanguard army did not build new fortresses on the front, and could only count on field trenches and fortress positions taken from Soviet Russia to withstand the baptism of Soviet Russian artillery fire.

"The third option is fine, but it doesn't need to be so passive. If it is a stubborn defense, the loss will definitely be much greater. We're going to fight out and have a fight with the son. This can not only be the arrogance of the sub, but also attract the attention of the attractor, and give the reinforcements a whip behind the buttocks! Meng Xiang shook his head slightly and said, "Those dark chess pieces of the chasm can be revealed earlier, strike first, and fight hard with Zi first!" ”

……

"Boom, boom!" The sound of the sky cracking began to roll in the night at 4:10 a.m., and the roar of 200 rocket launchers fired from the Zamyn-Uud mark tore through the night sky, burning the whole sky red.

The entire battlefield of the front near Zamyn-Uud was under the control of the sub-bases, and the coordinates of the Soviet-Russian troops were easily obtained. The Russian army, which had just assembled and prepared, was bombarded by artillery fire falling from the sky, and one man was flipped on his back. The vanguard army attacked first.

"Shoot back!"

"Hide!"

"Attack! Rush up! "The artillery fire drowned out the connection between the upper and lower levels of the Soviet Russian army, all kinds of orders sounded on the Russian positions, and the actions of the soldiers below were even more chaotic.

However, although in the stage of preparing for the attack, Soviet Russia had already made certain preparations for some possible problems. After the unprepared chaos, the armies, which had advanced to the front line, began to organize a counterattack.

"Shoot back!" In the headquarters in Ulaanbaatar, the commander-in-chief Apanashchenko shouted orders even more, but his loud voice did not affect his silent face. As a veteran of the battlefield, he is always calm when he encounters things.

But it was the military political commissar Zhartov next to him, who shouted loudly with some excitement: "Neijian, there is a rebellion in our infantry team!" and bring them out to be judged by the people. "Obviously, the vanguard was able to find the right time to attack, and someone must have reported it. It's just that everyone doesn't know that even though the barracks were under martial law before the war, the actions of the Soviet Russian front-line army could not escape the control of the scale directly under the sub-base.

"Hmmm! These Neijian need to be tried by a military court and all of them will be shot! Apanashchenko also said angrily.

He didn't want the commissars to intervene at this time. Since the introduction of the system of the military commander in charge of the first position, the position of the political commissar has been greatly affected. Zheltov's actions are not only his interests alone. But if another round of clean-up is really set off in the army, I am afraid that the army will be panicked and will be chaotic first. What other battles are fought?

However, at this time, Zheltov mentioned it, and he still wore the hat of a spy, plus the forces behind them, Apanashchenko had to pinch his nose and promise, but as soon as he spoke, he turned to the issue of military law, and won the initiative for the next move.

"We need all the armies to work together!" The chief adviser, Smorodinov, despised the two of them in his heart, but still said to Apanashchenko with a worried face.

This time, Soviet Russia seems to have a lot of personnel, but it is better to say that it belongs to the Far Eastern Military Region that it is transferred from various military regions, and there are a few bigwigs who are personally in charge, so they naturally listen to the cliché. And the troops from the Transbaikal Military District are in the transition to the front, which is already very chaotic, and it will be even more chaotic as soon as the command is transferred at this time. This is not a big problem if there is enough time to sort out, but now it is indeed forced to go directly to the battlefield, and before the order can be carried out, it is suddenly attacked by the vanguard army. The unorthodox infantry team immediately fell into chaos.

In the army, it doesn't mean that the top just gives orders. If that were the case, if the command was like an arm, the Soviet Russian army would have been the first in the world long ago. The misinterpretation of some commands always adds more meaning to them.

Apanashchenko also has a bit of a headache, if it is infantry, the army in front of a charge, with a gun in the rear, naturally those who are disobedient know to obey orders. But he knew that Smorodinov was talking mainly about those artillery and air infantry units, many of which were assembled from the Transbaikal Military District and even from the Siberian Military District, and some orders and communication were even more difficult.

In the event of an emergency, this kind of forced planning and ordering will surely make a painful comeback under the rigid command system.

"The front line organizes a counterattack position, and the rest of the personnel organize an attack according to the original time!" Apanashchenko could only be placed in this way, and although the original plan did not change quickly, it was also systematically coordinated. At this time, it is not possible to modify the overall plan separately due to the attack of the vanguard army. It was only possible to use the men and horses of the Far Eastern Front to withstand the attack of the vanguard army first, and then carry out the next adjustment.

"The sky?" Smorodinov hesitated. The Vanguard Army had a history of attacking before the early hours of the morning.

"Be prepared for air defense, so that the Air Force is ready for takeoff. After the dawn, it was a harsh lesson to the Chinese people. Apanashchenko was also a little helpless, in the end, the result was still a dark night with no fingers in sight, whether it was air defense or flying, it was greatly discounted. Although there were many planes that came to support, few were able to fight at night. As for night air defense, because the Soviets and Russians did not pay enough attention to it, and this time they were in a hurry, those searchlights and anti-aircraft balloons were even more incomplete, and the radar could not be talked about, so they could only do their best.

Smorodinov was about to say something, but was interrupted by the rapid sound of the Hotline chime, Apanashchenko frowned, and immediately grabbed the Hotline from the front.

"Lord, the Chinese are bombing our airfield at high altitude! We need more support! The voice on the other side of the microphone was so loud that Smorodinov could hear it, but the explosion behind the sound was also clearly audible.

Apanashchenko was big for a while, because of the last few bombings by the vanguard army, the planes have moved back as far back as possible, and deliberately increased the anti-aircraft firepower, but the bombers of the Chinese still came early, and they still attacked at night at high altitudes. @
