Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

Less than 10 minutes after the last round of attack, three Soviet infantry regiments came from three different directions to Vladivostok, where the Marine Brigade stood firm.

I saw the old Maozi attacking troops layered upon layer in front of me, who could hardly see the edge at a glance.The brigade commander Zhou Feng's eyes were full of shock, and he asked the chief of staff beside him with an incredulous expression: "Chief of staff, what do these old bastards want to do? Are they queuing up to die... It is impossible for their flesh and blood to break through the death zone we created with our naval guns, and they even charged forward without hesitation... Crazy, these old men are all crazy..."

Compared with the shock on Zhou Feng's face, the chief of staff transferred from the Army to the Marine Brigade showed a trace of fanaticism.Facing Zhou Feng's murderous response, he said: "Traveler, since the old Maozi wants to come to die, then we will fulfill him and turn Vladivostok into a meat grinder that ruins the Soviet Far East Military Region. I don't believe it. , the old Maozi's heart is made of iron, and he doesn't know how to be afraid in the face of death..."

"Chief of Staff, you are right. Since they came to die on their own initiative, our Marine Brigade has to help them..." Brigadier Zhou Feng nodded in agreement, and the shocked expression on his face was subconsciously calmed down. cover.

Then, facing a combat staff officer in front of him, he gave a serious order: "Staff Wang, immediately contact the First Fleet of the Navy, and implement saturated artillery fire coverage on the predetermined position according to the predetermined plan. See if it is the old man's Flesh and flesh are more powerful, but our steel cannons are more powerful...”[

"Yes, Traveler..."

The familiar and sharp whistling sound of cannon piercing the air sounded over the battlefield, and a series of violent explosions sounded.It rang directly from a distance of more than 200 meters in front of the Marine Brigade's defense line.Not only that, the scorching air waves generated by the cannon explosion.It also continued to attack in the direction of the soldiers of the marine brigade, causing thousands of officers and soldiers of the marine brigade to stick to the line of defense.Feeling the heat coming from the head.

Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Feng, commander of the Marine Brigade, and others, the layer upon layer of Soviet offensive troops, like mosquitoes fighting a fire, rushed towards the death zone that had been completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke without fear of death.

In the eyes of Zhou Feng and others, the battle in front of them is different from the one that just ended.No matter how many Soviet attacking troops came, with one exception, they were all submerged in front of the Marine Brigade's position, which was 100 meters wide and several kilometers long.The death zone that has been completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke.

But as time went by, more and more Soviet soldiers were submerged in this area.The gunpowder smoke produced by the explosion of the naval gun slowly changed from the black "black" at the beginning to the blood-red "red" that is now mixed with a lot of blood.

Seeing the scene in front of him, even the Chief of Staff of the Marine Brigade, He Weidong, who was still hot just now, turned pale at this moment.Because, in the half-hour battle just now, more than 1 Soviet soldiers were submerged in the shelling of the naval guns and the blocking hands of the marine brigade.

Especially a corpse wall located 200 meters in front of the defensive position.It has changed from the initial height of half a meter to the current height of one meter.

The corpses of Lao Maozi, who were either intact or missing limbs, were piled up very messily like sandbags.What's more.The bodies of Lao Maozi who fell on this line, with one exception, all had their heads facing outwards.Stacked on top of each other, it looks subconsciously creepy.

The direct loss of tens of thousands of soldiers.Not only did it not stop the Soviet army from attacking, but it aroused their fighting spirit and courage to continue the attack.Completely regardless of life and death continue to attack forward.If you attack again, it will be as if the lives of the soldiers under your command are not life, and tens of thousands of troops will be killed or wounded, so you can completely ignore it...

Seeing this, the pale-faced Chief of Staff He Weidong couldn't help but sighed to Zhou Feng beside him: "Traveler, what's going on, the old Maozi's attack has no intention of stopping yet, they all Are you crazy... This is completely death, not an offense..."

From the very beginning of this attack, Brigadier Zhou Feng, who had been frowning tightly, shook his head and replied: "Chief of Staff, I also don't understand what the old man in front of us is doing... Under such circumstances, as long as we have enough "medicine" in our hands, even if the remaining 10,000+ troops of the Soviet Far East Military Region are all thrown into the battlefield, they cannot be our opponents."

Chief of Staff He Weidong nodded noncommittally, and said in support: "The traveler is right, as long as we have enough medicine, no matter how many people come here, the old Mao will not be our opponent. Could it be that the old Mao in front of us The attack regardless of consumption is really to consume our army's "medicine". After all, our army is now fighting on the outside line, and it is difficult to get supplies. Although the transport ship brought us a lot of "medicine", but these After all, the "medicine" is limited. As long as the old "maozi" maintains an offensive of this scale for a day, we will run out of "medicine" in our hands, and by then, the entire Vladivostok will be destroyed."

Hearing this, brigade commander Zhou Feng not only did not show any worried look on his face.Instead, facing Chief of Staff He Weidong in front of him with a sneer on his face, he asked back: "Persist for a day, Chief of Staff, you think highly of the old man who attacked us..."

"Based on Lao Maozi's current loss rate of 1 people in half an hour, when the "medicine" in our hands is exhausted, the remaining 10,000+ soldiers of the Soviet Far East Military Region have also been completely consumed. Do you think that the commander-in-chief of the old Maozi's Far East Military Region would be so stupid that he would lose all his 10,000+ troops in this meaningless attack..."

While the two were standing behind the battlefield to analyze the battle situation, Senior Colonel He Zhongyi, the captain of the First Fleet of the Navy located in the Vladivostok naval port, saw that the deck of the warship had begun to emit bursts of heat, and even began to show signs of redness. Naval gun barrel.A faint worried expression also began to appear on the face that was full of confidence 10 minutes ago.

Then, the hurried arrival of the chief of staff of the fleet directly made this worry in He Zhongyi's heart a reality.

Seeing Colonel He Zhongyi with a dignified face in front of him, the anxious chief of staff did not hesitate, and directly opened his mouth to report: "Captain, all ships report: Among all the naval guns that are shooting, all guns with a caliber below The 150mm naval guns have been firing continuously for more than one and a half hours. The number of "fired" guns is no less than two hundred rounds, fully reaching the service life of the barrels. If these naval guns are not replaced, these ships The gun is likely to be in danger of exploding, the captain please make a decision immediately..."

"Can't the more than 100 naval guns continue to hold on?" Senior Colonel He Zhongyi had his last hope.Asked in a low tone.

The chief of staff shook his head with a look of resentment, and affirmed: "Captain, I can't hold on anymore... The barrels of more than a hundred naval guns have all reached the end of their service life, and even many naval gun barrels have exceeded their service life." Service life. Facing the gun barrel that has turned red, use cold water to cool it down. However, this method will not only reduce the service life of the naval gun, but may also directly cause the naval gun to explode, which is very dangerous...”'[

Speaking of which.The worried chief of staff continued to persuade: "Captain, give an order... For the safety of the ship and the safety of the entire fleet, the shelling must be stopped immediately, otherwise, all the more than 100 auxiliary guns will be scrapped, and the entire fleet will be destroyed. The combat effectiveness will also be reduced to less than [-]% of the original due to the loss of all secondary artillery..."

Hearing this, Senior Colonel He Zhongyi also became embarrassed.Responding to the chief of staff: "Chief of staff, have you ever thought about the fact that in the face of Lao Maozi's unstoppable attack, once we stop shelling, the soldiers of the marine brigade who stick to Vladivostok are likely to be attacked by the Soviet army. The entire army was destroyed..."

But at this moment, the chief of staff's eyes lit up, and he tentatively said: "The main gun...Captain. We can use the main gun to replace the secondary gun. Not only that, we can also ask for help from the Air Force. As long as Lu The soldiers of the battle brigade can be supported by the main guns of dozens of warships. If you persist for half an hour, air support can rush to the battlefield..."

For the safety of the fleet.Also to ensure the combat effectiveness of the entire fleet.He Zhongyi, the captain of the First Squadron, had no choice but to order: "In that case, immediately contact Brigadier Zhou Feng of the Marine Brigade to inform the fleet of the current predicament and our thoughts. At the same time, in the name of the First Fleet, immediately report The First Air Division sent a telegram for help, hurry up..."

"Boom..." A sound that was obviously several times more violent than the explosion of ordinary naval guns sounded in front of the position, and a thicker thick black smoke directly overwhelmed the gunpowder smoke covering the front of the position, and rose from the ground.Then, in the sky as high as 50 meters, a black and huge mushroom cloud was formed.

Although Zhou Feng, the brigade commander of the marine brigade, was standing at least 600 meters away from the gun point, the two people who were holding the binoculars could still clearly feel the shock and shock caused by the explosion of the large-caliber naval gun to the entire earth. After the cannon exploded, a wave of scorching air quickly swept away to the surroundings.

Because he was born in the navy, when the sound of the cannon explosion was still echoing in his ears, Zhou Feng, the brigade commander of the marine brigade, had already made a firm judgment that the cannon that exploded just now was definitely the [-]mm main battleship. It was fired from the cannon.

After being shocked, a trace of "doubt" immediately came to Zhou Feng's mind.

The larger the caliber of the naval gun, the more difficult it is to produce the barrel, and more importantly, the shorter the life of the barrel.Therefore, in general naval battles, especially naval shelling on the ground, almost no naval commander would be stupid enough to directly use the main guns of the warship to carry out suppressive firepower strikes.

At present, only more than one hundred secondary artillery pieces are enough to suppress the firepower of the Soviet army attacking the battlefield.Under such circumstances, why did Colonel He Zhongyi, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, order the main guns of the battleship to fire?

This kind of thought just appeared in Zhou Feng's mind, and one after another, more violent naval gun explosions, as if agreed, spread to Zhou Feng's ears one after another.Not only that, but the small-caliber naval guns that were constantly exploding just now disappeared quickly, as if they had suddenly disappeared.

"What's going on...why did you replace all the secondary guns with the main gun..." Brigadier Zhou Feng, who was frowning tightly, asked in a deep voice talking to himself.

Just when he was about to personally ask He Zhongyi, the captain of the First Fleet, for the specific reason, a combat staff officer from the brigade headquarters walked over quickly and sent an urgent telegram to the brigade commander Zhou Feng.

After quickly scanning the content of the telegram, Brigadier Zhou Feng's frowning brows not only did not relax at all, on the contrary, the frowns deepened.After handing the telegram to the chief of staff beside him, he said, "So that's the case. I said, is the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Far East Military District crazy, so he attacked us without regard to consumption. It turns out that all of this is not for consumption. "Pharmaceutical", but to consume the service life of our naval guns..."

The face of Chief of Staff He Weidong who had read the telegram.It also suddenly became dignified.Facing Zhou Feng, he asked in a deep voice: "Brigade seat, the air support will arrive in half an hour. Although the power of the warship's main guns is several times higher than that of the secondary guns. However, the number of main guns is too small after all. Only mere With dozens of doors, it is difficult to completely block the death zone in front of us. How should we fight next?"

The brigade commander Zhou Feng did not speak. After a short thought, he opened his mouth and said: "There is only one way, and that is to take one step at a time... It is really impossible. In order to win the final victory, we can only temporarily abandon the outer defense line, stick to the military port dock, and let the old Mao go." The child entered the city of Vladivostok."

"Let the old Maozi enter the city...but. Traveler, in this way, all our hard work and sacrifices just now will be in vain. Please think twice..." Chief of Staff He Weidong asked with a look of reluctance.

Zhou Feng shook his head, and replied with a murderous look: "Don't worry, it will never be in vain... Don't forget, at the latest half an hour, hundreds of fighter planes from the First Air Division can arrive at the battlefield. Even if the old Maozi really reoccupied the city. We don’t have to worry too much. In the worst case, we will set a big fire in the city of Vladivostok and burn all the old Maozi who entered the city to ashes..."

Burning Vladivostok will burn all the tens of thousands of old Maozi who reoccupied Vladivostok to ashes.

Thinking of this chilling scene, Chief of Staff He Weidong.I couldn't help but feel a chill.However, after a short thought, he, as the Chief of Staff of the Marine Brigade.It is better to accept this bloody method decisively, after all.What I dealt with was the Soviet Red Army full of crimes, not the Chinese.Not one's own compatriots.

The artillery fire blocking the army's offensive road suddenly became sparse, and the chief of staff of the Soviet Far East Military Region who was paying attention to the situation on the battlefield.It was as if a light suddenly appeared in the darkness, and he shouted frantically to his subordinates: "Comrades, opportunity, our opportunity is here..."

"Listen everyone, the naval guns that fired at us have changed from secondary guns to main guns of warships. Although the power of the main guns is great, the number is too small after all..." [

After finishing speaking, the chief of staff pointed directly at the gunpowder smoke that had gradually thinned out on the battlefield, and continued to speak: "Look at the battlefield, everyone. The death zone built by the squadron's artillery fire has become full of loopholes. As long as we increase our offensive Without strength, the Red Army warriors under our command can rush through this death belt and rush to the positions of the Chinese defenders..."

Being able to serve as military commanders above the division level in the Soviet Far East Military Region with millions of troops, these people's command ability and strategic vision are definitely not covered.Looking in the direction of the chief of staff's finger, although the more violent explosions from the warship's main guns continued to sound one after another, the sparse guns were no longer enough to form a firepower belt.

Just now it was completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke, burying the death belt of several Red Army warriors. At this moment, there is already a gap in the gunpowder smoke, and it is slowly dissipating.It was as if a large gap suddenly opened on a dam, opening up to the Soviet Red Army, which was constantly attacking forward like a flood.

Seeing this, the dignified expressions on the faces of these division commanders were instantly replaced by fanaticism.Facing the chief of staff standing in the middle of everyone, he asked for a battle with anticipation on his face: "The chief of staff, please issue an order for the general attack immediately..."

"Very good..." The chief of staff who waited anxiously for more than half an hour finally showed a knowing smile.

After quickly scanning the surrounding subordinates with a pair of eyes, he ordered decisively: "Now I order, the 29th Division, 30th Division, and 31st Division of the Far Eastern Military Region...Immediately attack Vladivostok from three different directions. Break through Vladivostok China within ten minutes. Defend the defense line and attack the city of Vladivostok..."

"Ula..." The three yellow torrents formed by the Soviet attacking troops, like a thousand arrows, rushed towards the gap that had just been exposed in the death zone.

Relying on the superiority in numbers, tens of thousands of Soviet troops, after paying a certain number of casualties, finally rushed through the death zone like breaking a dike to control a flood, and appeared behind the one-meter-high corpse wall.

Facing the intensive counterattack firepower fired by the Vladivostok Marine Brigade, the Soviet army that successfully broke through the firepower net did not swarm up, and "suicide" slammed into the counterattack firepower fired by the Marine Brigade.Instead, relying on the cover of the corpse wall, he quickly set up a pair of light and heavy machine guns.

Soon, as many as [-] light and heavy machine guns, relying on the corpse wall, began to shoot at the marine brigade standing in the city of Vladivostok.Not only that, but as time went by, the number of Soviet light and heavy machine guns that joined this confrontation also began to increase continuously...

Soon, the blocking firepower of the Marine Brigade, which was still dense like rain just now, began to become sparse under the pressure of Lao Maozi.And at this moment, the tens of thousands of Soviet troops hiding behind the corpse wall, like cunning rabbits, crossed the corpse wall and attacked the city of Vladivostok under the cover of a large number of light and heavy machine gun fire around them.

Facing the increasingly fierce attack of the Soviet army and the rain flying overhead.Under the cover of naval guns, the defense line of the marine brigade, which was still getting more and more morale just now, became turbulent again.Unknowingly, many recruits showed panic expressions from the bottom of their hearts...

Seeing this, Chief of Staff He Weidong's eyes quickly shifted to Brigadier Zhou Feng beside him, and asked tentatively: "Brigade seat, the time is almost up... If you keep going, the casualties of the troops will only increase. Not only In this way, once the old Maozi gets too close to the position, even if we want to retreat, it will be difficult to retreat successfully..."

Under He Weidong's gaze, Brigadier Commander Zhou Feng slowly showed an unprecedented firm expression on his face.After a long sigh, he ordered: "Chief of Staff, order the troops to take alternate cover according to the plan we just formulated, and immediately retreat to the military port... At the same time, order the troops left behind in the military port to prepare for the response..."

"Yes, Traveler..." (To be continued...)
