Age of Conquest Reborn

Tang Qiuli raised the telescope in confusion and looked at the sky where the sound came from. Through the smoke of war, a group of small black dots appeared in the telescope lens in the distant sky. "Soviet planes!" he said instantly.

judge.

"Yu He, order the first and second air defense brigades to immediately set up a tight air defense fire net over the battlefield to ensure that the attacking troops are not disturbed! Get all personnel to evacuate the tents immediately! Take cover immediately!" Tang Qiuli

He pushed away the few special guards who came to cover him and said loudly to Zhao Yuhe.

Shanhu rushed over in a few steps, and together with several special guards, they picked him up and ran behind a cliff. Tang Qiuli struggled and shouted: "Huzi, you are confused, hurry up and help the people in the tent evacuate.

Do I need so many people to protect me?”

Shanhu didn't say a word, just pulled him and ran. He had just found a hiding place. Ten minutes later, the Soviet army's fleet flew overhead. In the woods on the hill, several tents were standing in the bright sunshine.

Below, very eye-catching, two Soviet fighter jets broke away from the formation and swooped down from high altitude.

"Da da da—!" Several tongues of fire fell from the sky and tore the tent into pieces. The Soviet fighter jets roared away, almost flying past the high treetops. The huge air waves rolled up the fragments of the tent.

It rose into the sky and was blown away by the north wind.

Tang Qiuli patted the soil and broken branches and leaves on his body, got up from the ground, and his face became gloomy. There were at least 300 Soviet combat aircraft, which would definitely cause great interference to the troops' final attack. The most critical thing was

It was to boost the morale of the Soviet soldiers in the encirclement, and its impact would undermine the plan to completely annihilate the 43rd Soviet Army.

Tang Qiuli looked at the mountain tiger beside him and asked: "Huzi, are there any casualties among the division commanders?"

Shan Hu looked at the sky vigilantly and replied in a deep voice: "I don't know yet. I guess it's okay. Chief of Staff Zhao organized the evacuation. If it weren't for your safety, the heavy machine gun in my hand would definitely be able to

Let's beat them up! Wow!" Shan Hu pulled the gun bolt hard, and a bright yellow bullet, as thick as a thumb, jumped to the ground with a curve, "Humph, it's an advantage for them!"

Tang Qiuli said nothing. He looked at the dispersed and concealed headquarters personnel coming out from various places. They were not in a panic. He was relieved and escaped in time. There should be no casualties. Fortunately, Chen Feng's communication office was in a hidden place behind the cliff. Otherwise,

, communication equipment will suffer.

Zhao Yuhe came over in a hurry and said without waiting for Tang Qiuli to ask: "Commander, there are no casualties, but the tent cannot be used. Soviet planes have appeared, and it is no longer safe here. Captain Huang, please arrange the transfer of the division commander immediately!"

He gave Shanhu urgent instructions again.

At this time, the sky above the battlefield was already filled with clouds of black smoke that exploded when anti-aircraft shells exploded. Without a telescope, you could see Soviet planes continuously dive bombing and making low roars, intensifying the battlefield.

In the tense atmosphere above, from time to time a Soviet aircraft exploded into a ball of flames, or dragged a long tail of thick smoke and plunged to the ground. Before the final blow against the Soviet army had begun, the ground-to-air battle began.

The fight started.

Tang Qiuli frowned, "Yu He, order Zheng Yong's artillery to start shelling immediately, and order the air defense troops to buy at least an hour for the ground troops!" he said sharply.

The sudden appearance of Soviet combat aircraft disrupted the original attack plan. However, the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired. If we gave up at this time, not only would our success be in vain, but the troops would also be attacked by Soviet aircraft during the evacuation process.

A large number of casualties. Fortunately, there were only more than 300 aircraft. If Chutian did not give the Soviet army a field airfield and destroy it with devastating damage, his own battle would not be easy to fight!

The appearance of Soviet fighter jets and bombers greatly encouraged the Soviet soldiers on the ground, and also caused a lot of trouble to Zheng Yong's artillery unit. Although two air defense brigades, hundreds of anti-aircraft guns, supported a

The dense air defense fire network, however, could not completely block the attack of Soviet aircraft. From time to time, heavy aviation bombs fell on the artillery positions, exploding into clouds of mud and fire, causing casualties to the artillery units.

Lieutenant General Bamiyanov in the encirclement, his face pale with excitement, a sickly flush, grabbed the ground-to-air communication device, and said with a trembling voice: "I am Commander Bamiyanov, representing the Fourth Army."

All the soldiers and officers of the Thirteenth Army would like to thank the comrades of the Air Force! Thank you very much!"

Lieutenant General Bamiyanov's gratitude was absolutely sincere, so sincere that there was no impurity at all, but the Soviet air commander who commanded the formation felt very unhappy in his heart.

Just because he could only dispatch more than 300 fighter jets and bombers, he was almost scolded to death by General Vasilevsky. But Comrade General, who knows the suffering of the Air Force? Not to mention other things, just these aircraft are still more than a dozen

There is a patchwork of airports, and there is also insufficient fuel. The roads that were washed away by floods have not yet been repaired, and fuel and supplies cannot be transported.

The ground support department worked hard to collect all the fuel, and then barely replenished each combat aircraft with only about one-third of the usual fuel. It could last for half an hour above the battlefield, even if

That's right, no matter what the ground is like, the formation must return, otherwise, it will fall halfway. If it weren't for these incompetent army, why would I take this risk with more than 300 aircraft?

Feeling angry, I had to say a few polite words on the surface, "Comrade Commander, this is what our Air Force should do. They are all Red Army troops under the leadership of Comrade Stalin. However, there is a situation that I must report to you, because

The logistics supply line has never been restored, and the fuel for our combat aircraft is only enough to stay over the battlefield for less than thirty minutes!" the Soviet air formation commander said in a nonchalant manner.

Lieutenant General Bamiyanov, you still care about these. Let alone thirty minutes, even three minutes are precious to me who is on the verge of desperation. What I am interested in is not the mere three hundred aircraft of the Air Force.

Being able to repel the independent division troops and relieve oneself from the encirclement, but to boost the morale of the troops within the encirclement, is what one needs most. With this morale, one can have more confidence until reinforcements arrive!

Braving strafing and bombing by Soviet aircraft, Zheng Yong's artillery unit fired thousands of artillery pieces and began a violent bombardment towards the 43rd Army's last position. Countless shells flew across the sky with screams.

, hit the Soviet position like hail, blasting an area with a radius of less than fifty kilometers into fireworks, smoke, shrapnel, and shrouded in a bloody wind.

"Boom! Boom! Boom——!" The earth trembled, clusters of soil flowers turned up, and a huge roar echoed in the air.

"Report to the division commander that the artillery will launch an artillery bombardment on the central position held by the Soviet army on time! The armored troops and infantry are ready to launch an attack at any time," Zhao Yuhe put down the phone and said to Tang Qiuli.

Tang Qiuli did not speak, his brows were furrowed, and the expression on his face was dignified and serious. For some reason, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly passed through his mind. The Soviet army sent more than 300 combat aircraft, and of course they did not want to rescue the siege.

, In fact, it is impossible to do it, and this is the maximum air power that Vasilevsky can currently mobilize. Otherwise, if there are hundreds more planes, he may have to retreat immediately.

"Division Commander, the Soviet plane has returned! The bombardment has been going on for twenty-five minutes. Do you want to order the tanks and infantry to prepare for the final attack?" Zhao Yuhe put down the phone and turned around and said, interrupting Tang Qiuli's train of thought.

Tang Qiuli stared in the direction of the smoke-filled battlefield and did not respond to Zhao Yuhe's words, "Commander! Commander!" Zhao Yuhe shouted again, "The troops are still waiting for your order!"

Just as Tang Qiuli was about to nod, the uneasy feeling became stronger. Vasilevsky knew that more than 300 combat aircraft could not rescue the 43rd Soviet Army, so why did he do it?

Send it out? Is it just to buy some time for the surrounded Soviet troops?

It won't be that simple, "Division Commander, after receiving an urgent telegram from the reconnaissance unit, the Soviet mechanized troops were divided into four groups and are rushing to the Balekcha battlefield at full speed. They are expected to arrive in one and a half hours. According to the scout's observations,

According to statistics, the strength of the Fourth Route Soviet Army is about 60,000," Chen Feng, director of the Communications Department, hurried over and reported breathlessly.

By the way, Tang Qiuli was shocked. All his doubts were suddenly put together in his mind. It suddenly became clear why the Soviet army, which was eager to break out, suddenly stood still and waited for reinforcements. Why did the Soviet army send planes to decoy the Soviet army?

The remaining troops of the 43rd Army were a bait to lure him to swallow. While he was digesting it, the Soviet reinforcements arrived quickly. Although there were only 60,000 people, once they were entangled, there were a lot of people following behind.

The main force of the Soviet army is more than one million.

Just short of the final blow, he still underestimated Vasilevsky's commanding ability and the Soviet army's rapid maneuverability, and the attack took place more than a day earlier than he expected.

"Yuhe, immediately convey my order to the troops. The artillery immediately stopped shelling, quickly evacuated the position, and moved to the direction of Coulomb. After the artillery withdrew, the tanks and infantry immediately left the battlefield and moved to the direction of Coulomb. Hurry, the Soviet reinforcements

The troops will arrive soon!" Tang Qiuli said urgently, "Tell the brigade commanders not to hesitate, let alone fight, and order Ouyang Yishan's second brigade and Chu Ziye's fourth brigade to reinforce the Soviet troops.

In the direction in which they are coming, block them."

Zhao Yuhe's expression changed and he said: "Commander, the last blow is just around the corner. It only takes thirty minutes for us to kill the Soviet army in the encirclement. Can we send six brigades to block the attack?"

It would be a pity to just give up with a brigade of troops to encircle and destroy the encircled Soviet army!"
