On the vast field, a huge armored liliang is advancing rapidly, this is an unprecedented liliang composed of more than 80 tanks, more than 100 armored vehicles, and more than 200 trucks, and it is also the essence of all the Feng army.

Among these tanks, there were 20 new tanks with long-barreled guns, which were tested and proved to be quite powerful enough to penetrate almost all the tanks equipped by the Russians. Since the Feng army had not yet developed a reliable self-propelled gun, the new tank took on the heavy responsibility of anti-tank.

In addition, Zhang Tingshu also learned the lesson of the last battle, in order for the armored troops to be effective, there must be enough infantry to cover. Otherwise, once the tank gets stuck in the quagmire of the infantry, it is a very dangerous thing, so it becomes very necessary to let the infantry get up quickly.

In addition to the original tracked armored vehicles, there are also a number of wheeled personnel carriers, these wheeled vehicles run more than tanks, can easily keep up with the tank troops, since the car, the soldiers are also a lot easier, save a lot of physical strength, as long as they get on the battlefield, they can immediately live and fight.

Of course, the Feng army is not yet fully mechanized, and there are only thirty professional personnel carriers, which cannot quickly transport a large number of troops. Zhang Tingshu specially pulled out 50 of the transport trucks to transport troops and ammunition to provide cover for the armored troops.

All the tanks and armored vehicles, plus fifty trucks, constituted the most advantageous assault iron fist of the Feng army. As for the other main forces of the First Division, Zhang Henian and Wu Kaijie personally led them, and in addition to the more than 200 trucks transporting supplies, their main means of transportation was bicycles.

In later generations, bicycles were very common things, but in history, bicycles played an important role in the military field. Bicycle vehicles are widely used in various countries to increase the speed of infantry maneuver. In World War II, Yamashita Bongwen, known as the Malay Tiger, swept across the Malay Peninsula by bicycle, which terrified the British.

Feng Jun two years ago, has been able to produce a large number of bicycles, at first everyone did not realize this two-wheeled thing, what military value there is, but Zhang Tinglan with foresight, has already ordered Feng soldiers to learn to ride bicycles, and also engaged in several bicycle cross-country competitions.

Now, the value of the bicycle is perfectly reflected. Zhang Henian and Wu Kaijie are also like ordinary soldiers, all riding bicycles. On the baskets and shelves of bicycles, there were dry rations, water, bullets and grenades. And sapper shovels, tents and the like.

A bicycle can seat more than one person. You can also bring forty or fifty kilograms of something. It's not a lot of effort. In particular, the terrain in the Far East is relatively flat, making it ideal for bicycle maneuvers.

Facing the wind along the way is much more comfortable than marching on your feet. More than 8,000 bicycles formed a huge and spectacular procession, closely following the armored forces, quickly rushing towards the flanks of the Russian positions.

"Old Wu. Your solution is good, and it's a lot easier. ”

"That's nature!" Wu Kaijie said with a smile: "Sometimes when we encounter special terrain, the war horses can't get through, but the soldiers can carry bicycles over." When I was chasing the bandits, I used a small group of bicycles to make a detour and sneak attack, and the effect was very good, otherwise how dare I boast in front of the big handsome! ”

When Zhang Henian heard this, he also smiled and said: "Speaking of which, we only have one point that is not cost-effective, that is, we have to follow behind their tank troops and eat a mouthful of sand!" ”

After a morning, they had traveled about twenty kilometers, and when it was finally time to rest, all the soldiers jumped out of the car and moved their sore, numb limbs. Riding for a long time makes everyone feel like their butts are going to crack, but everyone can't take a break.

All of them are checking the mounts that they love and hate, and if there is a problem, they will be repaired immediately, the weld is loose and needs to be re-welded, and if there is a problem with the tire, they must be replaced immediately, and then the mud and sand on the wheels must be removed, zuihou plus a little oil to ensure that the bike can run smoothly, and nearly half of the road is waiting for them.

After hastily gnawing a few mouthfuls of dry food, the huge team started again, but the next road was not as comfortable as before, and there were many rivers encountered along the way, some of which needed to be bridged to pass, and some rivers could only carry bicycles and wade across the river, and everyone was covered with muddy water and embarrassed.

At this time, Zhang Henian and Wu Kaijie were all in the lead, exactly like ordinary soldiers, holding heavy bicycles and wading through the muddy river. Sweat and mud were mixed together, but no one complained, just silently gritted their teeth and followed, and they must not be left behind.

Just when the sun was just setting west, Wu Kaijie suddenly said: "Did you hear about the New Year?" There was an explosion in the distance, and I guess it was probably an aerial bomb, and it seems that our air force brothers are really doing their best! ”

Zhang Henian also said: "That's right, we have been marching hard for a day, and the air force is only afraid that it will be worse than us, and it will continue to attack all day long!" Let the brethren get ready, the Air Force helped us win the beginning, and then it's up to us to do our own thing! ”

Just as Zhang Henian was making preparations, five kilometers earlier, the armored forces had already exchanged fire with the Russians. Zhang Tingshu led the armored forces to take the lead and appeared in front of the Russians.

These defending Russian troops were suddenly stupid, they never thought that the Feng army would suddenly appear from this angle. In his previous deployments, Budyonny focused on Akinskoye, and in his view, the first priority of the Feng army was to get the two forces to complete the division and master the railway line before attacking Chita.

Because of this, Budyonny focused his defense on the front, and between Chita and the front line, all second-line troops were sent. At this time, Zhang Tingshu and the others suddenly appeared, and from the dust that covered the sky and the sun, one by one steel monsters rushed out, the roar of the motor, the roar of the cannonball, intertwined, constituting the note of death.

Under the setting sun, those tanks were plated with a layer of golden light, more like a group of fierce beasts with teeth and claws. The Russians immediately fell into a panic, and in the midst of the bombardment all day, the telegraph lines and headquarters of the Russian army were attacked, and communications had not yet been restored, so the battle orders were not smooth.

In the face of such a group of blank lambs, Zhang Tingshu of course did not have any politeness, and dozens of tanks frantically poured into the positions of the Russian army, crushing all the original fortifications. They are striking faster and more unscrupulously.

The muzzles of the guns were aimed at the Russian fortresses, and they were all blown into the sky by name, and the soldiers who tried to resist were mercilessly shot and turned into mutilated corpses.

Crushing these corpses, they rushed into depth, and as they advanced, the resistance of the Russians became stronger and stronger, and more and more Russian soldiers rushed towards the tanks with explosive packs and grenades.

Sudden ...... Sudden ......

The bullets of the submachine guns were fired at them, and among the personnel carriers and trucks of the Feng army, there was a total of elite soldiers of a reinforced battalion, all of whom used submachine guns, and when they were still five hundred meters away from the battlefield, they all got out of the vehicles, followed the back of the tanks, and rushed inside.

The counterattacks launched by the Russians were all thwarted by them, and the brave and fearless Russians became the most targeted, killing one after another, and they could not even slow down the advance of the tanks.

And it was only after the armored forces of the Feng army launched a fierce attack that Budyonny, who was on the front line, got the report, and the bearded man was stunned for a while, and he endured a day of bombardment, which did not make him lose confidence, but after getting the news, he was completely stunned.

Not only him, but all the members of the command of the Russian army felt a feeling of suffocation, as if the throat was choked. And so it turned out, the Bong army avoided the solid front, and instead attacked the weak junction of the Russians, and once this was breached, the contact between Chita and Akinskoye was lost, and they fell into the encirclement.

Political Commissar Voroshilov's face was full of solemnity, and he hurriedly said: "Comrade Budyonny, hurry up and give an order, send troops to help, you can't hesitate any longer!" ”

"Hmm." Budyonny nodded reluctantly: "The armored forces of the Chinese are their greatest reliance and the most powerful combat force, we must also send the most powerful troops to deal with them, the third division and the Far East guerrilla brigade will immediately return to help, and another division will be drawn from Chita to attack together from both directions, and the railway line must be kept and the Chinese must be driven out!" ”

Although the Russian army issued a combat order, but they have lost the opportunity, within two hours of the start of the battle, the Feng army has rushed to a depth of about five kilometers, if it is purely infantry combat, one day can break through these, it is already very good, the Russian defense line has been torn a hideous gap.

Zhang Tingshu's heart was very comfortable, the battle was too smooth, it was like chopping melons and vegetables, and the Russians had no ability to resist at all. If the Feng army had more tanks and more logistical vehicles, he would have been able to break through the entire defense line with confidence.

It's just that at this time, the Feng army is still overwhelmed and can't do that step, and as night falls, the Russians have stabilized a little, and their counterattack has also begun. In the darkness of night, the tank's large body did not have much advantage, on the contrary, it was easier for Russian soldiers to attack stealthily.

The soldiers of the reinforced battalion were all protected around the armored vehicles, guarding against the sneak attack of the Russians, and the guns rang out constantly, and the sneak attacking Russian troops were knocked out one after another.

But Feng Jun couldn't be perfect, there was a loud bang, a tank came out of the smoke, the two soldiers just rolled out, a loud bang, the tank exploded, and the fire rose into the sky, Zhang Tingshu heard this, and he also felt bad in his heart. (To be continued......)
