I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

Even if they know that many of our rolling tank units are fake, they don't dare to take it lightly, because they don't know whether our tank units attacking them next time are real or fake!wonderful!What a great idea! "

Huang Baitao said: "Those two real armored regiments must first aim at attacking the Soviet army's logistics.

After destroying the supplies of the Soviet army, even if the Soviet army has tens of thousands of people, it is nothing but chickens and dogs that will collapse at the first touch!"

Cheng Kang suggested: "Sirs, the morale of the Soviet army is not high after suffering heavy losses from our army. If they are repeatedly attacked by our army, the morale will definitely be even lower. Army mechanized troops, the Soviet army must panic, and even collapse under the full-scale onslaught of our army!"

Sun Tongxuan asked in surprise: "Behind the Soviet army? First of all, does our army have any mechanized troops?"

Cheng Kang said with a smile: "Just like what Zhang Luzuo (Zhang Lingfu) did just now, the trees are blooming, and cars are disguised as tanks!"

Sun Tongxuan was still very surprised: "Secondly, how did you appear behind the Soviet army?"

Cheng Kang pointed to the map: "Mr. Sun, look, the enemy's and our army's battlefield in the east of the lake at this time is east of Lake Balkhash and west of Lake Sasirkol, in the saline-alkali land between the two lakes. However, Lake Balkhash It is shaped like a curved finger. It is very long. It is about 600 kilometers long from east to west, but not wide. It is 20 to 70 kilometers wide in the west and 8 to 15 kilometers wide in the east. We are in the east of the lake! The nearby lake is It's very narrow! We can send a force to cross the lake tens of kilometers behind our army, first turn to the northeast and then turn to the south, won't we be able to appear behind the Soviet army? Considering that the tools for crossing the lake can only be The temporary rafts could not carry more than a dozen or even dozens of tons of tanks, but only a few tons of cars. Therefore, a car unit was sent to cross Lake Balkhash on a raft, disguised as a tank unit, and appeared in the Soviet army. Behind, when the time comes, the Soviet army will be panicked when they see that they are caught in a pincer attack, and our army will launch a full-scale attack in one go, and the possibility of victory is very high!"

Sun Tongxuan looked at the map, thought carefully about Cheng Kang's suggestion, and finally shook her head: "This method is very clever, but there is a major hidden danger.

You also said that the troop crossing the lake can only be a car troop, but it has to be disguised as a tank troop. To put it bluntly, this troop is a paper tiger. The army was defeated and fled across the board, and 10,000+ Soviet troops overwhelmed them. With this paper tiger army, how can they resist?Isn't it very dangerous?This army is too dangerous! "

Cheng Kang said solemnly: "Mr. Sun, war is the most dangerous thing in the world. How can victory be obtained without paying a price? I am willing to command this army behind the enemy!"

Zhang Yun immediately responded loudly: "My deputy brigade commander took the initiative to invite Ying. How can I, the brigade commander, retreat? I will command! Commander Sun, you are wrong, how can we be paper tigers? We are real tigers! A tiger Even with ten thousand sheep, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

Sun Tongxuan nodded after hesitating again and again.

As the Nanjing Army changed its tactics, the Soviet Army on the Hudong battlefield suddenly fell into a passive situation of more pain, panic, increasing losses, and complete disadvantages.

The Nanjing Army that participated in the war gathered most of the tanks and most of the cars to form eight mechanized troops (the number should not be too many, too many will disperse the force, too few will not work, too few will not be able to maximize the harassment, Fight against the Soviet Army), use wooden boards to disguise the car as a "tank" that can be seen from a distance, and then hang branches, weeds and other things on the back of these fake tanks, and when they drive, they will fly sand and rocks, and dust will rise into the sky.

The fake tank unit consists of [-] to [-] tanks, armored vehicles, and [-] or [-] vehicles disguised as tanks. The real tank unit consists of [-] to [-] tanks and hundreds of vehicles full of soldiers and heavy weapons. , attacking the Soviet army on all sides, the main purpose is to attack the Soviet army's logistics supplies.

The nightmare of the Soviet army began.

During the day, the mechanized mobile warfare units of the Nanjing Army, with the cooperation of the aircraft, are invincible and invincible. Where the Soviet army is weak, the Nanjing Army's mechanized troops will attack fiercely, killing the Soviet army and causing heavy losses. The planes roared in the sky , constantly reconnaissance of the Soviet army, the situation of the Soviet defense line, the mobilization of the Soviet army... all can be seen clearly, and the pilot then uses the radio to notify the armored troops on the ground, making the armored troops seem to have "eyes in the sky" in the sky Knowing the dynamics of the Soviet army like the palm of his hand, he really "points and strikes".

The Soviet army's defense was weak, and the ground troops of the Nanjing Army immediately rushed over. The Soviet army's defense was strengthened, and the ground troops of the Nanjing Army immediately retreated or made a detour. The army's counterattack troops rushed to nothing.

On the other hand, the Chinese Air Force planes participating in the battle not only acted as the eyes of the ground troops, but also actively participated in the battle, throwing bombs on the artillery positions of the Soviet army, tank units, luggage warehouses, and densely populated places. , the yellow sand rolled into the sky, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the fire was raging.

Even at night, the situation of the Soviet army did not improve in any way. Although the dark night made the Nanjing army inconvenient, it also made the Soviet army even more inconvenient.

Surrounded by darkness, the Soviet army was terrified and terrified. The mechanized units of the Nanjing Army were still running fast and invincible. They continued to take turns to kill the Soviet army at night, like a pack of hungry wolves. Take a bite of the Soviet army, and run away as soon as you see the situation is not good. Anyway, they are all cars, and they run very fast.

This tactic of the Nanjing Army made the Soviet Army completely passive and beaten, and there was no way to solve it.

FK Neindorf, the commander of the 234th Division of the Soviet Army, described: "...At first, we fell into a great panic, because the Chinese tanks suddenly increased several times, and we suspected that they had brought new tanks from Xinjiang. A batch of at least [-] tanks, so we are very nervous. In this way, although their number is smaller than ours, the tanks have been greatly strengthened, and our large-caliber artillery has suffered heavy losses. The number of tanks is not superior to that of the Chinese. , It is not as good as the Chinese in terms of quality. The Chinese have added hundreds of tanks at once, which shows that they are about to launch a general offensive.

However, when we waited anxiously for the overwhelming general offensive of the Chinese, we were surprised to find that the Chinese did not launch a general offensive, but divided their tanks into many units, and harassed them day and night and endlessly. It is not accurate for us to say "harassment", because they are not guerrillas, but regular troops. Sometimes their raids come and go, and sometimes they are powerful attacks, which cost us at least 1000 people or even more. .

We are forced to run around and fight in a hurry. During the day, their tanks roll away with yellow sand. At night, their tanks have big headlights, and the bright beams of light come densely. We are exhausted and frightened. Be on guard, the mental and physical tension is high, and we will be exhausted in no time.

These Chinese are very cunning, they approached us a lot of times, deliberately turned around outside our range, and made our nerves tense, but after waiting for more than an hour, they left, leaving us inexplicable, but exhausted and long Time to prepare for a fight is no easier than joining it.

However, it didn't take long for us to figure out the tricks of the Chinese. In a fierce battle, one of our tank troops encountered one of their tank troops. Originally, the two sides were evenly matched. Unexpectedly, the Chinese tank troops They were easily beaten by us and fled in embarrassment. When we went to collect the loot, we discovered that the Chinese tanks destroyed by our tanks turned out to be cars, disguised as tanks with wood, no wonder they were vulnerable!So one thing we understand, the Chinese don't have that many tanks, they're bluffing, they're deliberately using a lot of cars to disguise themselves as tanks to intimidate us, harass us, keep us on edge and exhaust us.

However, after knowing this incident, our situation has not improved.

When the Chinese "tank troops" pretend to come again, we still have to tighten our nerves, because - who knows if it is true or not?If it is true, the Chinese tank troops will launch a real attack. If we are not careful, we will be caught off guard and suffer heavy losses. If it is false, even though it was a false alarm, we still have to maintain a high degree of vigilance.

In the battle of the day before yesterday, the 332nd regiment suffered such a big loss. The regiment was harassed three times in a row, and it was finally confirmed that it was a fake Chinese tank. When the Chinese tank unit drove near their position for the fourth time At that time, Lieutenant Colonel Yevgeny, the head of the regiment, thought it was still a fake. He shouted, "Red Army soldiers, for the sake of the motherland and for Stalin, go!" and led the whole regiment to launch an attack. As a result, the Chinese tank The troops were real. The two sides launched a melee between the tank group and the infantry group in the field. The 332nd regiment was almost devastated within half an hour. More than 2000 Red Army officers and soldiers were killed, including the regiment leader Yevgeny. , Yevgeny was knocked down by a Chinese tank machine gun in a fierce battle, and then crushed by that tank, his whole body was completely turned into a pool of mud.

...We have to admit that we know that seven out of ten of the Chinese tank troops are fake, but we still have to take them as real to guard against.

In yesterday's battle, my division was attacked by the Chinese. I immediately called the nearby 235th Division and asked for reinforcements. Unexpectedly, the division commander Boris rejected my request. He said that Chinese mechanization also appeared near his unit. Troops, I said angrily, 'That's fake', and he replied 'How do you know it's fake', in this completely passive situation, our division lost more than 500 heroic Red Army soldiers, and Bao Reese's division was nearby but stood still. He didn't want to save me, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

It's so sad that the Chinese put us on the fence with a dozen tanks and more than 100 cars!"

In just two days and two nights, the Soviet Army suffered losses no less than the previous night war. The Nanjing Army launched more than 20 attacks of various scales. Some of them severely damaged a division of the Soviet Army, and some of them wiped out a regiment of the Soviet Army. Or half a brigade, the Soviet army lost more than 5000 people. In fact, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the Nanjing Army's attack focus is on the Soviet army's logistics.

Compared with killing people, the Nanjing Army prefers to set fire. After rushing to the Soviet Army's supply base, the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army first searched wantonly, taking away everything they could take away, and setting fire to everything they could not take away. Do everything you can.

In a certain battle, the 18th Regiment of the 190th Brigade of the Nanjing Army captured a small village used by the Soviet Army to hoard supplies. Big well.

Fresh water is an important material for the army to fight in the Gobi desert. The Nanjing Army and the Soviet Army are fighting in the saline-alkali land at this time. Although there is a lake dozens of kilometers away, the lake water is salty, bitter and astringent.

The officers and soldiers of the 190th regiment tasted the well water in the hands of the Soviet army and found that it was extremely sweet and refreshing.

Obviously, this well is a good thing, but it cannot be taken away and must be destroyed.

Chao Lemen, chief of staff of the 18th Brigade who commanded the operation, asked: "Who brought the poison?" As a result, no one carried poison. Carry poisonous drugs.

After thinking about it, Zhao Le and the others had a flash of inspiration: "Who wants to shit? Hurry up! Throw all the shit into the well! Squeeze out the ones that don't have shit!"

After the Nanjing Army withdrew from this small village, the Soviet Army "recovered" the small village. The Soviet Army discovered that the well had been turned into a foul-smelling cesspit by the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army. There is also a wooden sign that reads in Russian: "Russians, you are welcome to eat our shit".

Obviously, this well can no longer be used by the Soviet army.

Purkayev soon discovered the intentions of the Nanjing Army. The Nanjing Army replaced positional warfare with mobile warfare and carried out "defensive attacks" on the Soviet Army. This is very clever, the vast desert Gobi, without supplies, even if one of the Soviet troops survived, all of them would die of starvation and thirst.

However, seeing through the enemy's intentions does not mean being able to crack the enemy's strategy.

Pulkayev, who had no choice but to think hard for a few days, was forced to adopt the most direct, most effective but also most helpless method, directly launching a large-scale attack on the Nanjing Army's defense line.

Although the Soviet army is no longer capable of storming, there is no other way.

"Glorious Red Army soldiers, for the motherland, for Stalin, go!"

"Forward! Destroy the Chinese invaders!"

"Ula!"

In the yellow sand all over the sky, countless Soviet troops once again swept towards the Nanjing Army's position like a mudslide.

The angry Chinese and the hysterical Russian resounded on the Central Asian desert together, and it was another dark battle.

In the overwhelming firepower net, the Soviet army was rolling, rolling, struggling, wriggling, wailing, and screaming. The Nanjing army was desperately strafing, bombarding, dropping bombs, shouting, and roaring.

In order to strengthen the firepower, the Nanjing Army also brought out a large number of Feilei cannons to make them go into battle again. Because there were not many anti-tank guns, the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army were throwing Molotov cocktails like raindrops. The army almost fought to the point of running out of ammunition, and hand-to-hand combat broke out on multiple positions.

The officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army in ragged clothes jumped out of their positions, and countless white bayonets shone with bright spots like stars in the scorching sun, and then the blades were completely red in the bloody rain.

The battle lasted all night, and the second full-scale attack of the Soviet army was defeated by the Nanjing army again. A large number of Soviet troops were destroyed and a large amount of Soviet supplies were destroyed.

On the battlefield of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, the corpses were once again like hemp, and the corpses all over the mountains and plains in the desert presented a horrifying scene: the scorching sun and high temperature quickly dried the moisture of the corpses, and the corpses became mummies in a short period of time, like dead wood everywhere. .

In this battle, the Nanjing Army suffered more than [-] casualties, and more than [-] Soviet troops were killed, wounded, and captured, which jumped from [-]:[-] in the first battle to [-]:[-]. One of the big reasons is that a large number of Soviet troops surrendered By.

The vast majority of the Soviet troops who surrendered to the Nanjing Army were Kazakhs. They did not have a strong identification with the Russian Soviet Union. It is unethical to the Russians.

The Nanjing Army has been conducting psychological warfare against the Soviet Army. On the Nanjing Army's position, the Kazakh translators shouted loudly:

"Kazakh Soviet officers and soldiers, the Soviet Union is the Soviet Union of the Russians, and it has nothing to do with you Kazakhs! You Kazakhs are only second-class citizens in the Soviet Union. Why do you still obsessively work for the Russians?"

"Kazakhs are the Kazakhs of the Kazakhs, not the Kazakhs of the Russians, not the Kazakhs of Stalin, and not the Kazakhs of the Soviet Union. We will help you Kazakhs to build a new Kazakh state!"

More and more Kazakh residents came to the Nanjing Army camp and shouted to their compatriots in the Soviet Army camp:

"We are all Kazakhs. Why do you give your life to the Russians? The Chinese are very friendly to us. They have strict military discipline. They did not massacre us, loot us, or rape Kazakh women. Stop fighting with them! For the Kazakhs, but for the Russians, do you want to be traitors to the Kazakhs? Come to us!"

The Kazakh officers and soldiers in the Soviet army were quickly moved, and defections continued to occur, first in twos and threes, then into small groups, and finally directly evolved into the scale of hundreds of people defecting and surrendering collectively.

In the Soviet army, Russian and Kazakh officers and soldiers were mixed. The Kazakh and Russian officers and soldiers who were determined to surrender even broke out in internal fire, and then ran to the Nanjing Army's position in groups to surrender.

Undoubtedly, the Soviet army killed each other, and the biggest beneficiary was the Nanjing Army.

The Battle of Hudong lasted for a week, and the Nanjing Army wiped out a total of 9 Soviet troops, half of whom were Kazakh Soviet troops who came to surrender as captives.

For these Kazakh Soviet surrenderers, the Nanjing Army will give preferential treatment, but the Nanjing Army cannot afford so many mouths. After selecting some Kazakh Soviet troops who are willing to fight side by side with the Nanjing Army, the Nanjing Army will arrange more Kazakh Soviet troops. Army prisoners went to the liberated area in the rear (in order to win over the Kazakhs, the Nanjing Army called the area occupied by the Nanjing Army in Kazakhstan the "liberated area").

"It seems that it is actually more beneficial for us to consume it!" Sun Tongxuan's mood gradually turned from cloudy to sunny, "As long as we have enough supplies, if the time drags on, the Soviet army may collapse on its own!"

Feng Shengfa was also in a good mood: "Yes, it's time for us to deal a fatal blow to the Soviet army!"

Chapter 474: Hundred Battles in Yellow Sand (4)

On a section of the lake in the east-central part of Balkhash Lake, hundreds of rafts are crossing the lake with the momentum of the fleet, while on the shore, more rafts are still being made, and a large number of Nanjing Army officers and soldiers are busy performing their duties Some of them cut down trees and collected reeds by the lake to make rafts, some loaded ordnance equipment, weapons and ammunition, and supplies on the rafts, or drove cars carefully, and drove the cars onto the rafts. Swing the wooden paddle, hit the water in the middle current, and suppress the flying boat in the waves.

"It's hard to cross the ocean with a penny, let's all paddle and start the big ship;

A small tree, weak against the wind and rain, a forest of hundreds of miles, standing side by side is the coldness of the year;

One plus ten, ten plus one hundred, one hundred plus one million, you add me, I add you, everyone is connected;

If you are in the same boat, let the sea give way to each other; when the chant is shouted, the waves will pull aside;

... "

The officers and soldiers sang in unison the military song of the Yellow River Fleet of the Navy, "Everyone paddles and drives the big boat" (Jiang Weiguo hummed it unintentionally once), sweating profusely as they paddled, and the fleet composed of hundreds of rafts galloped here mightily. The film once belonged to China but was occupied by Soviet Russia, and now it is recaptured through iron and blood wars on the Great Lakes of the Western Regions.

On the lake, military flags are flying, military songs are flying, and the fighting spirit is soaring.

Hans Leohart was an armored instructor and consultant hired from Germany when Jiang Weiguo established the 918th and 128th regiments. Now he is one of the senior observers of the German military in China, mainly in the main force of Jiang Weiguo's direct line Activity.

When the battle to cross the lake started, Hans Leohart was watching by the lake. Afterwards, he described it in an emotional tone: "The sun is setting, the sky is full of sunset, in the dim and golden sunlight of evening, A large number of Chinese soldiers are crossing the river. The lake is sparkling. It is more troublesome to cross the river. Because there are no boats, the Chinese soldiers make rafts on the spot. They work very hard, cutting wood, planing wood, binding wood...gloves It was worn out quickly, and countless hands were still busy, with blood blisters, and the hands were dripping with blood. The work was very intense, but they didn't have any complaints, they cheered each other on, and sang loudly. Song, there is a kind of devoted focus on the face and a heartfelt smile of joy when the work is completed. The officer gave the order, and they did not bargain at the slightest, and they completed the task wholeheartedly.

After the raft set off, the Chinese soldiers rowing the wooden oars took off their military uniforms one after another because of the heat and sweating profusely. They were naked from the upper body, showing strong and full of muscles, and paddling vigorously. The sweaty muscles reflected the luster of the setting sun , like a display of indomitable strength and spirit.

The battle was tough, the environment was harsh, and the pay was not high, but these Chinese soldiers didn't care. They had sunny smiles on their faces, sang loudly, and carried out the tasks in hand with enthusiasm.

I am in awe of them, because they and the spirit of this nation are indeed admirable, especially their hard work, endurance and perseverance, which are world-class.

The Chinese seem to be the nation that is best at 'forbearance' in the world. Faced with all kinds of difficulties, they can endure until the unbearable outbreak, so they have the spirit of making fun of suffering, although some people criticize this spirit as a kind of weakness , a kind of slavishness, but it must be admitted that this spirit also enables the Chinese to persevere actively and courageously like robots in the most difficult, worst, and worst situations.

The Japanese also have this similar spirit, but unlike the Chinese, the Chinese spirit is more like character, while the Japanese spirit is more like nature.

The world is wonderful. Different histories, environments, and reasons have resulted in different nationalities having unique personalities. Germany is like an eagle, always eager to fly to the highest place. Italians are like pigs. Although they also have advantages, they are more lazy. , Russians are like bears, cruel and greedy, Japanese are like wolves, tough and fierce, as for Chinese, I think they are like cows, Chinese are like cows, docile, hardworking, smart, hardworking, obedient, widely distributed, and very adaptable Strong, not picky about food and treatment, but cattle are different from sheep. Sheep are only docile, but cows are not only docile. Cows are undoubtedly docile, but cows can also be angry. Angry cows, especially a group of angry cows, will It's terrible, even fierce tigers and lions can't fight against the angry cattle. Isn't this another common point between Chinese and cattle?Today's Chinese are like a herd of angry cows united, fearless and unstoppable.

... "

Reinforced with the 17th Brigade of the 18th Division as the main force, more than 200 officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army crossed the Balkhash Lake on rafts, and then marched for more than [-] kilometers without sleep, and successfully appeared in the northwest of the Soviet Army on the eastern battlefield of the lake. side rear.

The mere [-] Nanjing troops naturally could not pose a substantial threat to the Soviet army, but the troops crossing the lake disguised more than a hundred vehicles as tanks, and carried out cruising activities on the flanks of the Soviet army flying sand and rocks, which had to cause serious damage to the Soviet army. There was a great panic.

Pulkayev was shocked when he received the report. Since the Soviet army did not have air supremacy, he could not accurately grasp the movement and situation of the Nanjing Army. After estimating and estimating, he came to the conclusion of "not less than 100, or even more than [-]." Don't dare to take risks, if it is true, the [-] to [-] enemy troops with more than [-] tanks are enough to deal a major blow or even a fatal blow to the Soviet army. After all, on the battlefield in the east of the lake, the Soviet army has fallen into a one-sided passive .

There are three main difficulties for the Soviet army at this time: first, the lack of heavy weapons (mainly large-caliber artillery), which made it difficult for the troops to launch large-scale storms; Third, the morale of the troops continued to decline, and a large number of Kazakh officers and soldiers defected and surrendered, which made the whole army distracted and unwilling to fight.

Each of these three points is fatal.

Purkayev affirmed that if the Nanjing Army sent reinforcements from another division (over [-] people), hundreds of tanks, and hundreds of artillery pieces, a full-scale counterattack would be launched, and it would be enough to completely defeat or even wipe out the Soviet Army.

"What should I do? What should I do?" The extreme anxiety and worry made Pulkayev think hard.

The helpless Pulkayev finally had no choice but to gather tanks, armored vehicles, and cars in the army to form a mechanized force to wipe out the surprise soldiers of the Nanjing Army who appeared behind the Soviet army. Unexpectedly, this surprise soldier of the Nanjing Army was very " Sly and despicable", they did not engage in direct combat with the Soviet army. When they saw the Soviet mechanized troops approaching, they immediately ran away and ran away in a hurry. Army, but kept a distance from the Soviet army, and then called the Air Force bombers to bomb the Soviet army.

Wherever the Soviet tank troops went, the bombers of the Chinese Air Force followed like vultures following rabbits. Although the bombers of the Chinese Air Force were not many, they kept bombing. It failed to hit the surprise soldier of the Nanjing Army, and was blown up by the Chinese Air Force for nothing. Many precious tanks.

Purkayev had to give up this uneconomical method, and then watched his side continue to fall into an increasingly dangerous situation.

The front is the main force of the powerful enemy, and the rear is the harassing and raiding soldiers of the powerful enemy. The Soviet army was forced into a passive and beaten situation by the Nanjing Army, which was much smaller in number than them.

"If the Germans hadn't held back more than [-]% of our military strength, how could we have been tossed so hard by the Chinese, whose national strength and military strength are inferior to ours..." Pulkayev sighed painfully and powerlessly.
