Age of Conquest Reborn

Major General Sun Zhenbang, the commander of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard who was injured and admitted to the field hospital, became anxious when he heard the division commander Tang Qiuli said that the battle to kill the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region troops was about to begin. He was worried that he would not be able to catch up with such a big battle.

, resolutely demanded to join the war

From the bottom of his heart, Sun Zhenbang is still bitter about his mistakes. He believes that the Soviet Union's second attack on Outer Mongolia was caused by his connivance or, to be precise, by ignoring the separatists of the "Outer Mongolia Independent Alliance". As the saying goes,

He said, "If you don't have domestic thieves, you can't attract foreign ghosts." The reason why the domestic thieves are not eliminated is because of himself, who presides over the military and political power of Outer Mongolia.

I originally wanted to make amends on the battlefield and feel better in my heart. When I saw the division commander, I felt less guilty, but things didn't work out. I was lying in the field hospital after two days of fighting. Sun Zhenbang was so unlucky in his heart that he cried out that he was unlucky.

, this is the last opportunity to participate in the war, and you can’t miss it. Didn’t you hear what the division commander said? After this battle, there will be no more war in Outer Mongolia for at least ten years. If you want revenge, where should you go?

Seeing Sun Zhenbang's eager look, Tang Qiuli looked at him with a half-smile, and said slowly: "Zhenbang, you can go to the front line, but I can't send another ambulance. Just stay with you. I'm independent."

The shortage of generals in the division has not yet reached this level. I will stay in the hospital honestly and use this time to think more about the post-war events in Outer Mongolia. There is one more thing that I might as well reveal to you in advance. I have decided

, forming a new field corps in Outer Mongolia."

After coming out of the field hospital, Le Yiqin stood in front of the jeep and asked Tang Qiuli: "Commander, I am going back to the army. Do you have any other instructions?"

Tang Qiuli said: "You can draw up the combat plan of the aviation force yourself and report to the division headquarters. You can take charge of Cuigang's troops first. Can you let them participate in the battle? Will it be beneficial to restore the morale of the troops? They will always be a battle reserve team.

, will discourage the pilots. After the battle begins, your main task is to block the retreat route of the Soviet army with Liu Chun's cavalry troops and block the Selenge River!"

"Also, we will spend the whole day tomorrow to ensure that Liu Hongzhang's troops can safely leave the Selenge River battlefield without being attacked by Soviet air attacks. Please make sure you wait for the order from the division commander before attacking."

, don’t lead the team into battle in person, a single person will make me tremble with fear!"

Le Yiqin agreed wholeheartedly and sat in the jeep, but secretly thought to herself, "If you don't lead the team to fight, you won't be worried to death. This habit has changed over time. I can only take it slow. Cui Gang

One of my arms was placed in Lao Maozi's hand. If I don't take revenge, how can I live up to my good brother!"

On the afternoon of September 25th, the front line of the Selenge River was unusually calm. The Soviet army, which had suffered a setback in its attack and suffered heavy losses, did not take any action, not even a tentative shelling. From the early morning of September 20th,

Starting at about four o'clock, the sound of gunfire, the explosion of bombs and the roar of airplanes continued for more than five days. There was surprisingly no movement, only the roar of the Selenge River, roaring tirelessly to the east.

The river took away the stains of blood and tens of thousands of fresh lives. For the soldiers on both sides who had been used to hearing the deafening explosions and smelling the choking smell of gunpowder smoke for more than five days, it was a bit uncomfortable.

After getting used to it, my tense nerves relaxed, and I leaned lazily on the edge of the trench, enjoying the rare afternoon sunshine without the sound of gunfire.

The Soviet army did not move. Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan's troops, who were in a defensive position, naturally would not take the initiative to cause trouble. In fact, even if Liu Hongzhang was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to fight, he was powerless. He only relied on hundreds of mortars.

, used for offense, it won’t be a big deal!

The troops of the corps directly under the independent division seized this rare opportunity to repair the fortifications and trenches that had been flattened by Soviet artillery fire and air strikes, strengthen the anti-gun holes and shelters, and the four communication trenches leading to the Rock Mountain. The logistics department mobilized a large number of Outer Mongolia border guards.

The soldiers of the army continuously sent up a large amount of ammunition and supplies.

Viewed from the north bank of the Selenge River, the position on the south bank is completely silent. There is no trace of the movement of a soldier of the Independent Division. In the traffic trench more than two meters underground, people are coming and going, but it is a busy scene.

Liu Hongzhang put down the telescope and said to Ouyang Yishan: "Brother, we have calmed down for the time being. I suffered a loss all morning, but not to the extent that I was unable to attack. I stopped fighting in the afternoon. I always feel that there is something going on here.

!I don’t have any confidence in my heart!”

Ouyang Yishan frowned, thought for a while, and said with relief: "Is this normal? After all, in the morning battle, the Soviet army lost more than 10,000 people. If they want to fight, they have to reorganize the offensive order. After the deployment and adjustment is completed,

, it’s evening and we are fighting a night battle, the Soviet army is no match for us!”

"The order given to us by the division commander is to evacuate the frontline position on the Selenge River after ten o'clock on the night of September 26th and move to the Bayan Ula area. From now on, there are still eighteen hours.

, we have completed the blocking mission, tomorrow is a

After a difficult time, we withstood the Soviet attack, and we evacuated more calmly. We didn’t need the Outer Mongolia Border Guard troops on the Luanshi Mountain line to hold on for a day. The division commander saw the long term and didn’t let us abandon the Selenge River line.

Position, geographical advantage?"

Liu Hongzhang's sad expression did not lessen because of Ouyang Yishan's words. He said: "Brother, our two brigades have suffered more than 10,000 casualties, but their muscles and bones are broken. The density of troops on the position has greatly increased."

weakened. Without the air fire support of the aviation force, there is no guarantee that the situation this morning will happen again. I think it is better to draw three regiments from the second-line Outer Mongolia Border Guard troops to strengthen the first-line positions. What do you think?"

Before Ouyang Yishan could answer, the brigade chief of staff Liu Chenglin came in and said: "The two commanders have just received a telegram from the division commander. From the early morning of tomorrow to the time when our troops withdraw from the position, the Aviation Southern Flying Group will provide us with the entire process."

Air fire support, in the telegram, the division commander specifically emphasized that the effective strength of the troops should be used for the encirclement and annihilation campaign, and the east attack group should not be reduced too much, so as not to affect the smooth implementation of the campaign!"

Liu Hongzhang slapped his thigh, grinned and said: "It's done, Commander Youle's fighter jets will escort you, without Lao Maozi's bombers causing trouble, tomorrow won't be difficult. If it's just an infantry attack, who might suffer!"

At around four o'clock in the afternoon on September 25, on the north bank of the Selenge River, in the tent of General Kulykin, commander of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region, Lieutenant General Zernenko, chief of staff of the military region, was reporting: "Comrade Commander,

I just received a telegram from General Staff Officer

The three fighter divisions and two bomber divisions that are supporting us have all landed at the airport. Comrade Konev, commander of the military region’s air force, reported that the air force’s liaison groups have been stationed at various field airports to take on logistical support tasks!”

The joy on General Kulykin's face was not concealed. He stood up excitedly, walked quickly around the tent, and said: "Comrade Zernenko, inform the comrades of the air force division commanders who are coming to support, I, Caucasus

The military region troops will start their attack on time at five o'clock in the morning tomorrow. They must ensure that air superiority is in our hands. Let Konev and the others provide the air conditions in the theater!"

Seeing that his chief of staff had a dull expression and no excitement at all about the arrival of reinforcements, General Kulykin said dissatisfiedly: "My comrade chief of staff, don't be dejected just because the attack fell short in the morning. You saw it too, we

It's almost successful. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of an independent division and aircraft group, our current position should be on the way to Cullen."

"Facts have proven that with absolute control of the air, the Selenge River defense line is not indestructible. For tomorrow's attack, I require all the fighters and bombers of the Air Force to be deployed. Even if Tang Qiuli's aviation force increases its strength, it will not be able to compete with us.

With the great Soviet Union’s national power to contend with, the poor Chinese people simply cannot afford such air combat consumption, and everything is over. This damn river blocked my 300,000-strong army for more than five days!”

General Kulykin said bitterly, his face became ferocious, looking at the commander who had fallen into a paranoid state, Chief of Staff Zernenko did not argue a word, saluted, and turned to leave.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon on September 25, the independent division's field airports in Outer Mongolia began to become noisy. Fighter planes landed one after another from the distant Indochina Peninsula, the West Indian mainland, China's Hainan Island, and Kunming.

Waiting for a place, flying from the south for the transfer

The subsequent seven fighter regiments and six bomber regiments of the group arrived in Outer Mongolia one after another. In addition to the five fighter regiments that arrived earlier, most of the main force of Le Yiqin Air Force moved to the new battlefield. Only those who stayed in the south were

Ten fighter regiments, four bomber regiments

Kulun pointed his fingers empty on the ground, Le Yiqin put his hands on his hips and shouted into the intercom, "I'm talking to Lao He, how come the follow-up formation you led arrived an hour later than originally planned? It's dark in Outer Mongolia."

Good morning, it’s all dark. Let the captains of the regiments pay attention. Remind the pilots to be alert, land at the scheduled airport, and be careful not to knock down a few planes. This will be embarrassing!"

Colonel Dong Ningxuan, chief of staff of the Northern Flying Group on the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud. His face turned red from holding it in. Le Yiqin continued: "Please note, commanders of all flying regiments, fly directly.

Cullen Field Airport, attend tonight’s combat meeting, the troops will be handed over to the Chief of Staff’s command!”

Putting down the phone, Le Yiqin wiped the sweat from his forehead and said apologetically to Dong Ningxuan: "This is a mess, by the way, Chief of Staff Dong, tonight's military meeting, the head of the Northern Flying Group and the chief and deputy minister of the logistics department

, all will participate, you are responsible for informing them!"
