In fact, Budyonny also felt embarrassed. He felt that what Golikov said made sense, but he could not have both fish and bear's paws. The original plan was to eat up Sun Tongxuan's troops trapped in the Kecheng area. With all the pressure, the chances of winning are still very high, but now there is another chance to recover Omsk, it is really hard to choose.
Just when Budyonny was hesitating, a communications officer hurried over: "Comrade Commander, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent an urgent telegram!"
Budyonny hurriedly took the telegram, and after a careful look, he was taken aback: "Has Jiang Weiguo come to Omsk?"
In the early morning of March 3, the Soviet army officially launched a full-scale attack on Champion City, and this "big avalanche" ushered in the climax of the battle.
Chapter 560 Who will win the game (5)
The Champion City stands on the banks of the Om River, which is a diversion of the Irtysh River. Due to the dangerous air route and the slow land route, Jiang Weiguo took a plane to the three cities in the northeast of Kazakhstan and then took a boat to the Champion City by water.
The location of Champion City is very prominent, but it has land, sea and air connections with the three cities in the northeast of Kazakhstan, which are more than 300 kilometers away. The Si River, Champion City has a wharf, and the land route relies on two temporarily built field roads on both sides of the Irtysh River.
At this time, the air route was basically impassable. First, the weather was not ideal; second, the Soviet aircraft in the airspace of Champion City was relatively dominant; Some of them were transferred to reinforce the besieged Sun Tongxuan's department), land and water routes are still accessible, but compared with land routes, water transport capacity is obviously higher (Nanjing Army vehicles are limited, most of them are used for front-line troop transport rather than rear transport supplies).
In order to reinforce the defenders of Champion City to the maximum extent, Feng Zhi'an, who is based in the three cities in the northeast of Kazakhstan, did his best to take on the duty of "Captain of the Transportation Brigade", collecting all the local civilian boats and fishing boats, and cutting down trees to make hundreds of large rafts , used to transport supplies to the frontline troops of Champion City, making the Irtysh River a scene of "thousands of sails competing for sailing and hundreds of boats competing for flow".
Jiang Weiguo was on a large civilian ship of more than 800 tons in the fleet, but when the fleet was [-] kilometers away from the Champion City Wharf, Fu Zuoyi sent a telegram to Jiang Weiguo: "The Soviet army is concentrating its forces or firepower on the wharf. Cut off the water and land communication channels between Champion City and the outside world, the battle at the pier is extremely fierce, shells are raining, and rivers are boiling, please do not come, stop immediately!"
"Old Fu is very concerned about me!" Jiang Weiguo looked at the telegram and laughed, "However, I guess he lied on purpose to decline me!"
"I don't see it!" Xiao Yao, who was standing beside Jiang Weiguo, raised his binoculars, "I can see that the place where the water and the sky meet in the distance is indeed full of artillery fire. Listen carefully!"
Jiang Weiguo pricked up his ears, and sure enough, he heard the sound of shell explosions that were as dense as machine guns firing bullets from the sound of rolling waves.
"Are you going or not?" Xiao Yao looked at Jiang Weiguo with a half-smile.
"Nonsense!" Jiang Weiguo was full of pride, "How can I turn around when I'm almost at the front line?" He pointed to the champion city shrouded in continuous artillery fire, and ordered loudly, "Keep going!"
Xiao Yao smiled, and then pulled Jiang Weiguo: "Change the ship! The ship we are on is the largest in the fleet, and it is simply a target for the Soviet artillery!" He pointed to a boat on the water beside him. A torpedo boat, "take that one instead! It's small and fast, and it's not easy to be hit by shells!"
Jiang Weiguo immediately followed the good advice. He was not afraid of death, but he would not be as keen on courting death like the Japanese.
Facts quickly proved that Fu Zuoyi did not deliberately lie in order to "scare" Jiang Weiguo, and Xiao Yao's suggestion was also correct. When the fleet approached the Champion City Wharf, it was like driving into a pot of boiling water. The sea is also like a crater where magma flows when a volcano erupts.
Although he was mentally prepared, Jiang Weiguo almost had the idea of retreating. If it hadn't been for the consideration of face and the inability to cool the hearts of the officers and soldiers of Champion City, Jiang Weiguo really wanted to order "turn me around quickly."
The pier of Champion City has been completely devastated, completely turned into a piece of ruins, and more and more shells continue to blow up the already riddled pier into ruins, razed to the ground, burned to scorched earth, a large number of fragmented Dead bodies, shocking rotten flesh and blood, grotesque wreckage of equipment, disintegrated buildings and houses, torn apart weapons, scattered cars, raging fire, billowing smoke... All kinds of strange things are mixed together, shrouded in the Thunderbolt-like explosions, sandstorm-like shock waves, tornado-like air waves, countless bullets and shells, collapsing buildings and houses, and flying stumps and broken arms in the storm, there are lightning, thunder and blood everywhere. , the Soviet army all over the mountains and plains has rushed to the area near the pier, and the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army guarding the pier are resisting frantically, and the two sides have killed the sun and the moon; The shells that fell from the ground blasted the river upside down and turned the sky around, and the water column that burst into the sky was as dense as a forest and as strong as a giant tree. Fire dragons and water dragons danced and churned together on the river, and the shells exploded into hundreds of whirlpools on the river. The waves, the huge amount of river water that was blown into the air poured down like a torrential rain, the river surface was full of shipwrecks, and the debris of people floated, and the boats that were blown up by shells were heaving in a haphazard manner in the boiling river water , a pool of blood-stained pink river water where dead people are like hemp, and some floating corpses are blown into the air by shells, and then fall to pieces, rustling continuously. This scene reminds Jiang Weiguo subconsciously of eating hot pot: The surface of the river is like a boiling soup pot, isn’t the falling pieces of dead meat like beef and mutton thrown into the soup pot?Thinking of this made him sick.
Jiang Weiguo didn't have time to feel disgusted, because he was in a dangerous situation where his life was in danger. The sailor driving the torpedo boat asked him again and again: "Second son! Do you really want to move on?"
"Nonsense! Hurry up!" Jiang Weiguo resisted the urge to vomit while holding on to the fixed objects around him. The reasons why he wanted to vomit were firstly that the water surface was boiling and the torpedo boat was extremely bumpy; Floating in the water, he had to vomit, which made his face turn pale, and Junzi who was following Jiang Weiguo had already vomited in a mess regardless of his female image.
"Soviet artillery fire is really fierce!" Xiao Yao watched very intently.
Undoubtedly, nine out of ten of the artillery shells falling madly on the pier and the river came from the Soviet army. The Nanjing army basically faced the shells one-sidedly. The Soviet army had a clear purpose to destroy and occupy the wharf of Champion City, completely turning it into a A lonely city.
The torpedo boat rushed towards the wharf that was already in contention between the two armies with the momentum of hurricane drift in the stormy sea.
The Soviet army had already discovered the Nanjing Army transport fleet that had arrived near the pier, and the artillery shells immediately blasted concentratedly on the river surface. Thunderbolts rolled, and ships or rafts were constantly shot and exploded, because the tonnage of these ships and rafts was not large. , As long as they are hit by shells, they will be smashed to pieces immediately, and the escort officers and soldiers on the ship will either be bloody or have no bones left.
Because it was too dangerous to transport supplies to Champion City by boat, almost no Kazakhs were willing to do it, so those who drove these boats and rafts were all officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army, causing heavy casualties.
With a loud "boom", Jiang Weiguo looked back and was horrified to see that the ship he was on was hit by a Soviet artillery shell, and the whole ship was blown to pieces in a ball of fire. Ten yuan sank to the bottom of the water, the defense of the civilian ship was too low, being hit by a shell was no less than a glass bottle being shattered, and there were burning and flying medicines all over the sky. Jiang Weiguo was heartbroken to see it. He was heartbroken. Expensive new Western medicines such as penicillin, morphine, and aspirin cost at least US$100 million in this way.
"Military division, fortunately I listened to you, otherwise we would have been flying in the sky!" Jiang Weiguo was terrified, and before he could finish his sentence, another loud noise exploded more than 200 meters behind him, followed by an overwhelming roar. air storm.
It was a ship transporting ammunition that was hit by a Soviet artillery shell. Immediately there was a shocking explosion. Fireballs and water columns soared into the sky together, and the hurricane-like shock waves roared in all directions. Vigorously push away a three-dimensional water wall more than one meter high.
Jiang Weiguo was almost unable to stand on the torpedo boat and almost fell into the river, but Junzi beside him couldn't stabilize his body at all, and fell into the river all at once, and the moment he fell, he grabbed Jiang Weiguo and pulled Jiang Weiguo They fell into the river together. The worst thing was that the torpedo boat was moving at full speed according to Jiang Weiguo's order. After the two fell into the river, the torpedo boat had already driven hundreds of meters at a high speed. After all, the wasp torpedo boat The speed can reach more than 20 meters per second.
"Brother Wei fell into the water!" Sun Tao, who was protecting Jiang Weiguo, hurriedly turned the torpedo boat around.
Jiang Weiguo can swim, but he can't stand the turbulent and strong current at this time. Because of the violent shelling, the waves on the surface of the water are raging, and the eddy currents are also churning under the surface of the water. Being dragged underwater.
In the chaos, Jiang Weiguo felt something hit his face. Looking carefully, it was a dead man whose face was so swollen by the river water that it was hard to distinguish whether it was the Soviet Army or the Nanjing Army. He was only half in half, and his lower body was missing. He was so disgusted. He almost opened his mouth to spit out all the oxygen, and then he saw Junko in white clothes struggling in the deeper water below.
At this moment, Jiang Weiguo has two choices, one is to float to the surface of the water, take a breath, and then rescue Chunzi or ask Sun Tao and others to rescue her, but the river is muddy, and it is not suitable to stay on the river for a long time, it is estimated that there will be no time to rescue her I couldn't find her, and I didn't know where she was taken by the current. The second was to rescue her immediately at the risk of drowning.
To be honest, Jiang Weiguo really didn't really want to save Junzi. Anyway, she was Japanese, and she was probably a secret spy who was drowned and pulled down, but Jiang Weiguo cursed Bageyalu in his heart. Swimming over "involuntarily": "After all, I tricked her to come here, so I definitely can't leave her alone..."
After dragging Chunzi to the surface, Jiang Weiguo was panting desperately. Xiao Yao and Sun Tao, who were looking for him, had already driven the torpedo boat nearby, hurriedly dragged Jiang Weiguo and Chunzi onto the torpedo boat, and drove to the dock at full speed. side.
Jiang Weiguo looked at Chunzi who was spitting water, and thought very vulgarly in his heart: "According to the bloody plot of the romantic drama, at this time, I had to reluctantly give her artificial respiration, so I formally told her We kissed, and the relationship was formally confirmed involuntarily..." But the fact is not so vulgar, Junzi didn't drown to the point where Jiang Weiguo gave her artificial respiration, and there was a hail of bullets on the water and on the shore. Wretched, stumbled to avoid bullets and shells, ran desperately to escape, how could the vulgar thing Jiang Weiguo imagined happen, but Junzi was drowned not lightly, although Jiang Weiguo did not need artificial respiration for her, but the two The legs were weak, and Jiang Weiguo had to carry her to escape (Xiao Yao would definitely not be able to recite, and Sun Tao and other guards did not dare to recite "Future Fifth Madam", so Jiang Weiguo was undoubtedly responsible for this errand), which made Jiang Weiguo exhausted.
In the exhausted running and fleeing, Jiang Weiguo saw the scene of the scuffle between the two armies not far from him, and the nearest hand-to-hand combat was even 50 meters away. He could clearly see those men in beige The Soviet army in military uniform and the red five-pointed star on the brim of the Soviet army helmet.
"Damn! It's been a long time since I've been on the front line and had such close contact with the enemy!" Jiang Weiguo felt a little "nostalgic" while beating drums in his heart. He even stared at a small group of Soviet troops tens of meters away with a little addiction. , As a result, I don't know if they were attracted by Jiang Weiguo's "affectionate eyes". The dozens of Soviet soldiers saw Jiang Weiguo's eyes and looked at Jiang Weiguo, and then all showed strange expressions, and then howled one after another They rushed over fiercely with a desperate momentum, like a group of wolves seeing their prey.
"Fuck!" Jiang Weiguo was so stimulated that his exhaustion disappeared, and he ran desperately. He realized that the dozens of Soviet troops were attracted by him.
At this moment, Jiang Weiguo wished to learn from Liu Bang or Liu Bang's descendant Liu Bei. In order to escape for his own life, he threw away his wife and children as a burden. After all, it was really hard for him to run with Chunzi on his back.
"Protect Brother Wei!" Sun Tao roared, leading the guards to rush forward to intercept him.
"Second son!" Someone yelled loudly behind the ruins in front of him. Jiang Weiguo saw a tall and handsome major general leading a group of officers and soldiers to meet him.
The major general and the officers and soldiers immediately swarmed up and joined forces with Sun Tao and other guards to kill all the Soviet troops who were chasing and killing Jiang Weiguo.
"Second Young Master! The pier is about to fall! Withdraw!" the major general shouted eagerly, "Follow me!"
"Wait!" Xiao Yao suddenly yelled, he bent down and ran towards the killed Soviet soldiers, rummaged through the corpses, and found a piece of blood-stained paper, "Go! Go!" He said Return to Jiang Weiguo's side.
Jiang Weiguo asked Xiao Yao curiously while running with the major general: "What did you find just now?"
Xiao Yao showed Jiang Weiguo the bloody paper in his hand, and Jiang Weiguo stared wide-eyed. He saw that it was something like a leaflet, and in the middle of it was a photo that took up most of the paper. The person Jiang Weiguo is very familiar with, because it is him, and there is a line of Russian language under the photo, which Jiang Weiguo can't understand. It is probably "the person in the photo is Jiang Weiguo".
"Could it be that the Soviet army was so excited when they saw me! They rushed to me!" Jiang Weiguo suddenly realized, "So they have my photo! They recognize me! Damn it! Stalin issued a reward order for me to the Soviet army! Find a Russian translator later to see how much Stalin offered a reward for Lao Tzu's head!"
"I saw an officer in the group of Soviet troops just now dropped this leaflet from his body when he was shot. I suspect it's useful!" Xiao Yao fell into deep thought, "But, it's not right..." He revealed Doubtful look.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Weiguo was at a loss.
"Second Young Master, are you really here?" The major general who led the way for Jiang Weiguo looked at Jiang Weiguo happily and excitedly, "I never expected that you really came! Second Young Master, you really...really made us Awe-inspiring! Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Peng Shiliang, commander of the 202nd Brigade of the 222nd Division.
I'm sorry, we came late, because President Fu has already sent you a warning telegram, we guess you have turned around, but I didn't expect you to insist on coming to Champion City, so we came late..." (Nanjing Army No. 201 to Because the 210th Division is a newly established unit, the number of the division brigade and regiment has a unique regularity. The number of the first brigade of each division is consistent with the number of the division, and the number of the second brigade is the number of the division plus 10. The number of the third brigade is the number of the division plus 20. For example, the 201st division has the 201st, 211th, and 221st brigades, and the 202nd brigade has the 202nd, 212th, and 222nd brigades. , and so on; as for the regiment-level numbers, since the numbers of the 1000th to 1010th regiments belong to the 100th division, the numbers of the regiment-level troops of the 201st to 210th divisions start from 1011, and there are 10 regiments in 90 divisions. The numbers are from the 1011th regiment to the 1100th regiment, and the numbers of the regiment-level units are arranged in order.
)
"It's okay! It's okay!" Jiang Weiguo smiled disapprovingly, "Where is Mr. Fu?"
"Boss Fu is in the headquarters, and he is furious!" Peng Shiliang sighed.
As the so-called three caves of the cunning rabbit, in order to prevent the general headquarters from being paralyzed by the Soviet army, the Nanjing Army has several general headquarters in Champion City. When one is activated, the other ones are backups. Fu Zuoyi is currently in the safest one. This is a large bunker-like basement located more than 30 meters underground. More than 5000 Soviet migrant workers were employed. It took more than a month to dig out in the permafrost. It is indestructible and cannot be attacked by heavy artillery shells or heavy aerial bombs. create a threat.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, Jiang Weiguo heard Fu Zuoyi losing his temper inside: "You don't know the importance of the wharf? The wharf is not only the waterway exit of Champion City, but also the starting point of the road of Champion City. It’s an isolated city! You really let me down! There are more than 2 people! They collapse at the touch of a button! At least two hours, right? At least give me some buffer time! Destroyed! How unreasonable!"
Jiang Weiguo asked Peng Shiliang curiously: "Who is President Fu training?"
Peng Shiliang replied: "Yang Gancai, deputy commander of the 20th Army!"
"Is the 20th Army also participating in the war?" Jiang Weiguo was surprised.
Peng Shiliang nodded: "Well, the defenders of Champion City are actually not only our 202nd Division, but also the 20th Army!"
Jiang Weiguo walked in and saw Yang Gancai explaining to Fu Zuoyi with sweat on his face: "Yi Gong, it's not that our troops are not doing our best, but that the Soviet army is indeed coming fiercely and with strong firepower, and our troops are hard to parry!"
Seeing Jiang Weiguo walking in, Fu Zuoyi's face changed, and he stopped talking to Yang Gancai: "Okay! The matter has come to an end, it's useless to talk more.
The pier is about to be lost, and the last passage to and from Champion City is about to be closed. At this time, your 20th Army has only two options. One is to retreat as soon as possible and launch mobile operations in the outer extension to help the defending troops contain part of the Soviet army. , The second is to enter the city quickly before the gate is closed, become part of the city defense force, and fight to the end with the 202nd Division! "
Yang Gancai also saw Jiang Weiguo, he couldn't believe it, and then felt a stronger pressure than from Fu Zuoyi. After gritting his teeth, he replied solemnly: "Yi Gong, we choose the second one! Since we are loyal to the country, It's also making up for it!"
Fu Zuoyi nodded: "Hurry up! Hurry up and mobilize troops into the city!"
Yang Gancai saluted Fu Zuoyi, bowed and nodded to Jiang Weiguo with a terrified expression, and then left in a hurry.
In the basement, Fu Zuoyi looked at Jiang Weiguo, and there was no joy, excitement, or excitement on his face, but an indescribable depression and entanglement. He turned his head, covered his face with his hands, and said in a helpless tone: "Are you really Coming?" It seemed that Jiang Weiguo was his creditor, and he came here uninvited on the night of New Year's Eve.
Jiang Weiguo laughed dumbfounded: "What's the matter? Mr. Fu, you don't welcome me so much?"
Fu Zuoyi's facial features were almost wrinkled into a bitter gourd: "Of course you are not welcome!" To him, Jiang Weiguo is simply a hot potato that scalds people to death.
"The pier is doomed to fall, and the airport is constantly being sabotaged by the Soviet army, not only the Soviet planes, but also the Soviet artillery! Our airport in Champion City is already within the range of the Soviet heavy artillery! "Fu Zuoyi looked at Jiang Weiguo with a look that almost begged for mercy, "You can't leave!"
Jiang Weiguo obviously didn't appreciate Fu Zuoyi's kind words. He shrugged his shoulders: "Auspicious people have their own destiny. How could I, Jiang Weiguo, die here? Well, Mr. Fu, let's talk about the battle situation! What happened to the 20th Army thing?"
Fu Zuoyi looked at Jiang Weiguo without saying a word, he was still at a loss for Jiang Weiguo's uninvited visit.
Guo Jiqiao, who was also at the scene, said with a smile: "Second son, let me explain to you!" He pointed to the map, "According to the 'big sandstorm' plan, the main force of our army in Champion City will be dispatched, leaving only The 202nd Division, and the less-respected 20th Army.
The 20th Army originally belonged to the 27th Army of the National Army. When the Konev Division of the Soviet Army launched a major counterattack, the Army was basically defeated. However, the 20th Army maintained a relatively intact organizational structure and most of its troops, and came to Champion City After the battlefield, the army has been serving as an auxiliary force. Although it did not make any great achievements, it has also made a lot of effort. There are still more than [-] people in the army. The Soviet army was almost vulnerable, causing the Soviet army to drive straight in, and hit the pier directly when our army was caught off guard.
Although the combat power and weaponry of the 20th Army are indeed inferior to ours (Nanjing Army), it is not likely to be defeated by the Soviet Army within 10 minutes and be chased by the Soviet Army all the way to the pier. Of course, Mr. Fu will be angry !"
"Farting can add a bit of wind!" Fu Zuoyi said sullenly, "Since they choose to enter the city to help in the battle, leave the logistical affairs to them! In this way, the 202nd Division can also save manpower and go all out to fight!"
Jiang Weiguo smiled, and he immediately realized something: "The commander of the 20th Army is..."
"Yang Sen!" Xiao Yao replied from the side, with a strange expression on his face.
Jiang Weiguo's mouth was full of bitterness, and he was embarrassed: "It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia!" He changed the subject, "How many troops has the Soviet army invested in attacking Champion City?"
Guo Jiqiao said happily: "A lot!" His expression and his words seemed contradictory, but in fact they were not contradictory. Since there were "many" Soviet troops attacking Champion City, Champion City was naturally very dangerous. It means that the Nanjing Army's tactics of luring the enemy have achieved initial success. The follow-up troops of the Soviet Army will be attracted to Champion City, and the pressure on the Kecheng battlefield will be greatly reduced. "According to reliable and detailed latest information, the Soviet cavalry's The 1st Army is on the battlefield in Kecheng. Half of the 16th Army is there, and the other half is engaged in field melee with Li Yutang's troops on the way. Right now, the 22nd Army of the Soviet Army is attacking Champion City, with a total strength of about 11. The follow-up troops of the Soviet Army There is also the 30th Army, however, constrained by our army's 180th Division's raid on Astrakhan, the Soviet 30th Army has been ordered by the Moscow high-level to deploy a main force to the Stalingrad battlefield, making the army currently only two military.
In order to compete for the 30th Army with only two armies, the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Army in Kecheng, Vasilevsky, and the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Army in Champion City, Golikov, had a quarrel. Both claimed that they urgently needed the 30th Army. Claiming that as long as he gets the 30th Army, he can win a decisive victory on the front he is in charge of, which puts Budyonny in a dilemma!"
Regarding the whereabouts of the 30th Army of the Soviet Army, Vasilevsky and Golikov even complained to each other in front of Stalin. As long as the battle is carried out according to the original plan, the Soviet army will definitely win a big victory. It can not only firmly resist the Nanjing Army's relief troops, but also firmly eat up the besieged Nanjing Army's 4 divisions and 3 troops. There are more than 22 people. Today, the 30nd Army was transferred to attack the Champion City by changing its plan halfway. The 30th Army, the Battle of Kecheng was defeated without a fight?What's more, the [-]th Army has already transferred an army, which is already not optimistic, but it will make things worse; Golikov is also plausible. He believes that the prospect of the Kecheng Battle is already bleak. According to the latest situation of the battle situation, the battle of Kecheng was abandoned, and all troops were devoted to the battle to recover the champion city.
The two had a quarrel.
"It is estimated that Budyonny will end up with the muddy mud!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Isn't the 30th Army now only two armies? Maybe Budyonny will divide it into two, and one army will be given to Vasilevsky. , a corps to Golikov!"
"That's the best!" Guo Jiqiao also smiled, "The result of taking both into account is often the result of losing both, which will cause the Soviet army to fly and fight! But..." He looked calm, "A new Soviet The army group appeared, and the 50th group army, which was followed by the 22nd group army, was coming from the Ural region.
The group army has about 15 troops, but the group army is newly built, and its members are basically recruits and militias, with poor weaponry and few heavy weapons.
The Soviet Army probably wants to attack the sea of people again!"
"The 50th Army is nothing to worry about!" Fu Zuoyi said, "The top priority is to deal with the 22nd Army of the Soviet Army. The army has about 11 troops, and our army has a division and an army of about 5 troops. However, our army must fight first." "Luring wolves into the house" and then "closing the door and beating dogs", so..." He sighed, "Jianhao, Champion City is a bait, so the Soviet army must feel that they have the ability to swallow this bait, so the defense line must deliberately Give up a part, so that the Soviet army can flood into the city. In this way, the battle mode is not completely urban offensive and defensive warfare, but street fighting. As for street fighting, it is a competition to consume human lives. The Soviet army's human life is twice as much as ours, not to mention , the artillery power of the Soviet army occupies an absolute advantage!"
"I know!" Jiang Weiguo smiled, "So, morale is the most important! So, here I am!"
"Jianhao..." Fu Zuoyi looked at Jiang Weiguo with some emotion, and his eyes were no longer looking at a hot potato.
