Age of Conquest Reborn

Tang Qiuli was stunned. Ren Zhaoquan, who always spoke quickly, seemed to be hesitant to speak today. Delun, who arrived with the protection division headquarters, was normal. After all, he encountered a Soviet skirmisher.

Neither Ren Zhaoquan nor Chen Han were at ease. They could not agree without letting their troops protect them at any time. But Ren Zhaoquan's words were obviously not finished. What did he mean?

"Huh?" Tang Qiuli looked at Ren Zhaoquan doubtfully, "Ren Zhaoquan, when did you learn to hesitate? Isn't this your style? If you have anything to say, say it happily!" He raised his eyebrows and said.

Ren Zhaoquan swallowed, "Division Commander, Brigadier Chen Han and I agree that you and the division headquarters cannot go to Delun. The reason is very simple. It is extremely dangerous. The troops of our two brigades have to face forces coming from two directions at the same time.

The Soviet army, whose strength exceeds ours by more than ten times, cannot have their respective defensive positions too far apart, otherwise it will be inconvenient to support each other. Therefore, the distance between the positions of the 11th Brigade and the 12th Brigade should not exceed 15 kilometers.

This is the best defense Chen Han and I can take."

Tang Qiuli nodded and said with appreciation: "Yes, you two have thought very comprehensively. The two brigades are back to back and the distance is too far to support each other. But, is this the reason why you object to me going to Delun?

"That last sentence carries strong doubts.

Ren Zhaoquan let go of his courage and replied: "No, Commander, the key to the problem is that Delun is in the middle of our position. The Soviet troops and large-caliber artillery in any direction can completely cover Delun.

The division commander is located in Delun. This in itself means that you are irresponsible for your own safety. What's more, after the war started. Are Chen Han and I busy taking care of the division commander, or are we busy blocking the Soviet army?

"To be honest, the division commander made a wrong decision to set up a headquarters in Delun. Isn't it distracting us? So, the division commander, please return to Seyinshanda. This reinforcement group of mine will follow you back, so as to protect the division commander.

Be safe on the road!" Ren Zhaoquan also took the risk and poured out all the words in his stomach.

Zhao Yuhe secretly extended his thumb towards Ren Zhaoquan, and Ren Zhaoquan was even more encouraged, "Teacher, you should accept our opinion! Don't insist on having your own way!" He added.

Tang Qiuli stared at Ren Zhaoquan for half a cigarette. He stared at Ren Zhaoquan for half a cigarette. His hands were rubbing together nervously. He didn't know where to put them. Suddenly, Tang Qiuli became furious and shouted.

: "Well done to you, Ren Zhaoquan! You have learned to talk sweet words. Do you mean to say that I am a burden to you and Chen Han? I have set up a headquarters in Delun. You and Chen Han can't fight well, right?"

"

Tang Qiuli's sudden roar made Ren Zhaoquan jump up in fright, shaking his hands wildly. He explained incoherently: "That's not what it means...what does it mean...right...

So what, teacher... you, you know in your heart... me!"

Tang Qiuli looked at Ren Zhaoquan who was stuttering to explain, and felt secretly happy in his heart. He couldn't help but burst into laughter, and said: "Okay, Ren Zhaoquan, don't explain anymore, I will take care of your mood, the teacher and your

The troops set off together, but I don’t believe it. Two main field brigades with nearly 40,000 troops can’t protect my safety, Tang Qiuli?”

Ren Zhaoquan looked at Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe as if asking for help, hoping that he would stand up and speak for him and jointly stop the division commander's decision. Zhao Yuhe shrugged with a look of helplessness on his face. He had taken more drastic measures than this, and even

The second and third figures of the independent division were used. Aren't those two big guys useless?

In fact, Tang Qiuli knew in his heart that the opposition of Zhao Yuhe and Ren Zhaoquan was absolutely justified. The Soviet army that had retreated from Seyinshanda and the Soviet army that had moved south from Kulun to meet them would most likely meet at the Delenn line.

To put it bluntly, the division headquarters, the 11th Brigade, and the 12th Brigade were the stuffing of the dumplings. I never wanted this situation to arise.

If once in such a dangerous environment, Tang Qiuli would not ask for the 11th and 12th brigades to fight to the death with the Soviet army that was more than ten times their strength. If necessary, they would

Issued the order to evacuate the Delenn front line.

For the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, the difficulty of resolving the two groups of Soviet armies coming together is not that great. It will be a protracted entanglement. In this way, the battle in central Outer Mongolia will be dragged out.

It will be over when the time comes. From the Far East to Outer Mongolia, the battlefield spans thousands of kilometers. The Outer Mongolia Field Corps cannot end the battle quickly and free up its hands to support other directions. The two brigades in its own hands are far from enough.

of!

Of course, based on the situation on the battlefield, Tang Qiuli could judge that Cullen's Soviet army would be two or three days later than the Soviet 37th Group Army that retreated from Saiyinshanda, because Cullen's Soviet army would not be able to move.

If you don't know the situation clearly, you will never dare to dispatch rashly. If you are afraid of being beaten, there will be no situation where the troops of two brigades on the Delenn front line are resisting the enemy at the same time from the north to the south.

However, if an unexpected situation occurs, or in other words, Sun Zhenbang's troops have never blocked the Soviet 37th Group Army's retreat to Cullen, and are intercepted, and the situation on the local battlefield becomes clear, the Soviet army in Cullen will inevitably

If you will dispatch to rescue the 37th Army, you are saving yourself.

Therefore, the key to the battle is whether the Outer Mongolia Field Corps can encircle and annihilate the Soviet 37th Group Army as quickly as possible. In the area south of Delun, Tang Qiuli put himself in a dangerous place, which was also a disguised act.

Putting pressure on Sun Zhenbang and Battelle, Zhao Yuhe would definitely report the situation in Dudelun to the division commanders. When he learned that he was personally commanding two brigades of troops and was blocking the attack, why didn't Sun Zhenbang run away and vomit blood?

In this way, it is entirely possible to encircle and annihilate the 37th Soviet Army Group as quickly as possible south of Drun. It is entirely possible to turn around and besiege the 35th Soviet Army Group coming out of Kulun. It will be much easier to solve the problem.

, the Outer Mongolia Field Corps can reinforce any battlefield at any time, and get rid of the dilemma of being short of troops.

For the independent division troops, the greatest pressure is not Vasilevskiy's Outer Mongolia Front troops who are eager to escape from the battlefield in Outer Mongolia, but the three front troops commanded by Zhukov coming from the Far East. Therefore, Tang Qiu

Li must have a sufficient force in his hands.

Near noon, under the protection of Ren Zhaoquan's reinforced regiment, Tang Qiuli arrived in Delun. Chen Han, commander of the 12th Brigade, and Ge Zhenzhuang, director of the divisional staff who arrived in Delun earlier, arrived in the east part of the town.

They looked to the side, looking forward to it, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the teacher arrived safely.

Next, Ren Zhaoquan and Chen Han began to worry. The division commander's decision could not be changed. They could only work hard on safety. The two transferred all the engineers from their respective units to command the division in Delun Town.

According to the estimation of Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, even if it was hit by thousands of large-caliber artillery shells from the Soviet army, it would still be unharmed.

When Tang Qiuli led the division headquarters to Delen, Sun Zhenbang, the commander of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps who intercepted and pursued the Soviet 37th Group Army, lost his temper in the armored command vehicle and chased the Soviet troops away.

For a day and a night, the troops on both wings were unable to get ahead and block the Soviet army that was desperately retreating. Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Cullen, Sun Zhenbang was very anxious!

"What? The troops are marching continuously. The soldiers are too tired. You say it again. I tell you, it is not the time to complain and complain. When is the time to block the Soviet army? It is a great achievement of your two wing troops to allow the Soviet army to escape back to Cullen.

This is our first battle, even if we fail, I can’t afford to lose this person. From top to bottom in the corps, whoever has rested is not tired? It’s just you who are tired, bullshit!”

"Instructions? What instructions? I just give you one sentence: pursue, pursue continuously regardless of fatigue, even if your legs are broken, you must get in front of the Soviet army! To do this, you must intercept and kill!"

Putting down the walkie-talkie microphone, Sun Zhenbang took out a kettle and drank it hard. He put down the kettle, exhaled a pleasant breath, rubbed his eyes that were covered with red bloodshot eyes after not sleeping all day and night, and then asked Chief of Staff Wang

Jun, "Chief of Staff, what do you think of Commander Battle? Where is he now?"

Wang Jun replied: "Commander, Commander Ba's opinion is that we should order the pursuit troops on both wings to continue to speed up, not to get entangled with small and scattered Soviet troops, and to slow down the attack of the frontal pursuit troops. Otherwise,

The tighter we fight frontally, the faster the Soviet army runs. A call just came in. Commander Ba is commanding the tank troops, which are more than fifty kilometers in front of us, commanding to break through the Soviet army's blocking line!"

"Alas!" Wang Jun sighed and continued: "It was originally a good thing to pursue the troops from the front, but it caused great difficulties to the troops pursuing in parallel on both wings. It was no more than a few dozen Soviet troops.

With a distance of kilometers, it is impossible to establish a blocking line, and there are no favorable terrain conditions that can be exploited along the way from here to Kulun. How can the troops on both wings fight?"

Sun Zhenbang also sighed and said with a wry smile: "The Soviet army retreated too quickly. It was unexpected. The road conditions were so bad that mechanized vehicles could not be used. They relied on the two feet of the soldiers. Alas, if Commander Liu Chun's cavalry

It's good that the troops are here. With four cavalry brigades, it won't be a problem to block the Soviet army for a few hours. It only takes a few hours. We have been chasing them for a day and a night, but they can't get them back! It's really depressing!"

At this time, the car from the Communications Department of the Corps stopped in front of Sun Zhenbang's car, and the director of the Communications Department came up in a few steps.

"The commander and chief of staff received an urgent battle report from the division commander, Chief of Staff Zhao. The division commander personally commanded the 11th and 12th brigades of the directly affiliated corps to establish a blockade line on the Delun line and prepare to resist the northward attack in the direction of Kulun.

The Soviet army is blocking our pursuit in the south. Chief of Staff Zhao requires our corps to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the Soviet 37th Group Army on the southern line of Delun!"
