Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

maiden fight

At one o'clock in the morning at night, the Soviet barracks stretching for several kilometers slowly fell into silence. Even the sentries patrolling around the barracks began to resist the need to close their eyes tightly and walk mechanically because of exhaustion.

The National Defense Army barracks ten kilometers away was full of people and brightly lit.

If it was an ordinary sneak attack at night, Li Guosheng would never have put on such a big formation.Instead, order the troops to approach the enemy's barracks quietly, and launch an attack suddenly, causing maximum damage to the enemy in a short period of time.

However, tonight's battle is not a sneak attack, but a real attack on the Soviet barracks.Not only that, but Li Guosheng also wanted to shock the Soviet Red Army, which was about to prepare, through the first round of the Army Aviation Helicopter's launch, and suppress the already low morale of the Soviet Red Army to the lowest point. .

After glancing at all the regiment-level and above officers standing in front of him who participated in the attack, Li Guosheng, who was full of confidence in the counterattack tonight, ordered decisively: "The First Division, One Regiment, and One Battalion of the Armored Army, and the First Squadron of the First Army Aviation Regiment. The commandos of the entire army will first launch an assault on the outer defense line of the Soviet barracks to destroy all resistance forces standing in front of our army."

"Armor Group Army, the remaining troops of the first two regiments of the first division, and all the officers and soldiers of the third brigade of the guard division, as follow-up troops, followed the commando to expand the breakthrough, and rolled over the Soviet barracks from the front, and continued to charge forward until the order to retreat is received or the tank runs out of fuel..."

"The third and fourth heavy tank regiments of the Armored Army are left attack groups. After the outer defense line of the Soviet army camp is opened, a lightning assault is immediately launched from the left wing of the Soviet army's operation to complete the outflanking of the Soviet army camp..."

"The fifth and sixth heavy tank regiments of the Armored Army are right-wing attack clusters, launching a lightning assault from the right wing of the Soviet barracks, and completing the outflanking of the right wing of the Soviet barracks..."[

"The second round of attacking troops, under the cover of four medium-sized tank regiments, followed closely behind the first round of attacking troops, and wiped out all the fish that slipped through the net and the enemies surrounded by the first round of attacking troops..."

"Tonight. I will use a lightning-like attack method to cleanly eat up the 20 Soviet Red Army in front of me, and let everyone in the world know that the National Defense Forces are no longer a local Chinese army, but a fully capable defense force." The Chinese National Defense Forces defending the country..."

After speaking, Li Guosheng, who always had a confident smile on his face, quickly shifted his gaze to the watch on his wrist.Then, he continued to order to everyone.

"Now it's one o'clock in the morning, and I'll give you half an hour to prepare. After half an hour, that's 01:30 a.m. tonight, troops will be dispatched on time to launch a counterattack against the Soviet aggressors..."

Although the roar produced by twelve armed helicopters was loud, it was insignificant in the roar produced by hundreds of thousands of tanks dispatched at the same time.

In addition, hundreds of officers and soldiers of the [-]st Tank Battalion had been in contact with the armed helicopters in the air for a day and a night. The sudden appearance of twelve armed helicopters did not cause much sensation on the battlefield.

"Start attacking..."

Looking at the several torrents of steel lined up in front of him.The confident Li Guosheng ordered loudly with anticipation and enthusiasm.

"Boom..." A huge engine roar sounded from the front of the position. Under the cover of 12 armed helicopters condescending, 36 tanks lined up roared out of the position first.

Just after the first tank battalion rushed 100 meters, two hundred tanks lined up in two rows of fans roared and rushed out of the position.

Of course, along with the two heavy tank regiments rushing out of the position, there were also two tank formations in an arrow-like attack formation.There are more than [-] tanks, like the guards with knives of the frontal attacking troops, majestic and murderous like the Soviet barracks.

…………

In fact, thousands of tanks galloping on the grasslands of Outer Mongolia at the same time can definitely be described by the words 'the earth shakes and the mountains shake'.Although the Soviet army ten kilometers away has not heard the roar of tanks.However, the earth, which had begun to tremble slightly, directly told these Soviet troops that there was a situation ahead.

A veteran with rich combat experience frowned, quickly lay down on the ground, put his ears on the ground and began to listen attentively.

Soon, the veteran who was still frowning just now showed fear on his face. After jumping up from the ground, he shouted at the platoon leader who was watching him nervously. [

"Tanks. It's a tank group... Platoon leader, a tank group of at least 1000 tanks is rushing towards us..."

"A tank group of a thousand tanks, how is it possible..." The young platoon leader who had just graduated from the military academy still had a trace of immaturity on his face.He asked directly with an unbelievable face.

However, when the tremors on the ground became more and more frequent, the platoon leader had to believe what the veteran said.

Then, he yelled loudly at his subordinates who were already frightened: "You bastard, what are you doing here? Immediately fire a warning shot and retreat to the barracks... With so many tanks, we are no different from dying here."

"Bang bang bang..." A series of crisp warning gunshots suddenly broke through the Soviet barracks shrouded in night.

Although the troops were exhausted after a day of fighting, they subconsciously got out of the warm blankets with rich combat experience, put on military uniforms, put on their armed belts, and held their weapons...

Of course, Commander-in-Chief Voroshinov, who was in the very center of the barracks, was also awakened by the gunshots.Just when Voroshinov was about to summon his subordinates with his eyes open, a staff officer on duty at night broke into his tent in disregard of military discipline.

Then, with a face full of horror, he reported: "Commander-in-Chief, something has happened... The National Defense Forces, the National Defense Forces have launched a counterattack against us... At least a thousand tanks are rushing towards our barracks..."

In the face of this report, Voroshinov's first performance was also unbelievable.However, when he was keenly aware of the trembling of the ground gradually, Voroshinov finally believed in this fact.

While wearing a military uniform, he ordered loudly: "The National Defense Force dispatched so many tanks at once. What do they want to do? Do they want to launch a counterattack against us? Drive us out of Outer Mongolia..."

"No, I, Voroshinov, must not make their wishes come true... According to intelligence, the tanks equipped by the Wehrmacht are not our opponents at all. Since they sent so many armored troops to die, I will grant them..."

After finishing speaking, Voroshinov, who had already put on a military uniform, exuded a fierce murderous aura.

Facing the staff officer in front of him, he ordered firmly: "Immediately issue an order to the commanders of the first to fifth divisions of the tank. All tank units must rush to the south of the barracks within half an hour, and the commander of the first tank division will be in charge. .Arrange a defense line just south of the barracks, and wipe out all the armored units of the National Defense Forces participating in the attack..."

"Yes, Comrade Commander-in-Chief..."

When the searchlights were illuminated, the Soviet heavy tanks in groups, like wolves smelling blood, rushed towards the south of the barracks one after another.

Soon, more than [-] Soviet heavy tanks formed two huge steel defense lines with a front width of more than three kilometers in the south of the barracks.At the same time, the barrels of the huge tank guns were all flattened.Point directly in front of the tank, and replace all high explosives with armor-piercing, waiting for the arrival of the Wehrmacht tank group.

As the ground trembled more and more, the deafening roar of tanks finally reached everyone's ears.

Just when the commander-in-chief of the Soviet tank group, with the help of a telescope, could see the light shining from the headlights of the Wehrmacht tank group.On the 30 armed helicopters at an altitude of about 12 meters from the ground, the condescending pilots have clearly seen the torrent of steel blocking the National Defense Forces.

Facing the densely packed heavy tanks of the Soviet Red Army, the 12 pilots not only had no fear.Instead, it revealed the excitement and enthusiasm before the battle.Quickly get in touch with the tank battalion and prepare for the assault...

Two kilometers...one and a half kilometers...one kilometer...

The two tank units, which were completely different in number, all adjusted their muzzles, waiting for the opponent to enter the attack range.The heavy tanks of the Wehrmacht equipped with the latest 105mm caliber tank guns first let out an angry roar under the gaze of the Soviets with a stunned expression.

The dull roar of the artillery rang out in the tank group of the National Defense Forces. Under the movement of the orange flame, 36 armor-piercing 105mm calibers quickly flew out of the tank guns with a length of three meters.Then, with a sharp whistling sound, it flew straight towards the Soviet tanks blocking everyone.

You know, this heavy tank gun can easily penetrate 2000mm thick armor at a distance of 150 meters.What's more, it can penetrate the Soviet army's frontal protective armor less than 120 mm thick at a distance of one kilometer.

Less than two seconds after the sound of the cannon, orange-red fireballs rose from the Soviet defense line one kilometer away, and then the violent cannon explosion reached everyone's ears.

At a distance of one kilometer, a 105mm tank gun can easily penetrate the 120mm thick Soviet armor.However, the 75mm caliber tank guns equipped by Soviet heavy tanks cannot penetrate the 150mm thick frontal composite protective armor of the Wehrmacht at this distance.

You know, during the testing process.Even if a 150mm caliber gun is used to launch armor-piercing, it is not capable of penetrating this composite armor one kilometer away, not to mention the 75mm caliber tank gun equipped by Lao Maozi.

Therefore, when the first round of guns fired by the Wehrmacht exploded in the middle of the Soviet tank group.The only thing the Soviet tanks that are ready to go can do is to be beaten passively.

However, the commander-in-chief of the Soviet tank group was not an ignorant person. He saw the new tanks that suddenly appeared in front of the Wehrmacht, and this tank was more powerful than his own heavy tanks.Responding from the shock, he immediately ordered the troops to attack, shorten the distance between the two armies, and get rid of this passive beating situation as soon as possible.

Just as the torrent of Soviet tanks rushed towards the attacking troops of the Wehrmacht head-on with a roar, a new round of artillery explosions sounded again in the middle of the Soviet tank cluster.

More importantly, when the attention of the two tank groups of the enemy and us are all attracted by each other.Under the cover of the roar of tanks and the explosion of guns, 12 armed helicopters that were completely submerged in the night sky had already flown one step ahead of time and were less than 200 meters away from the Soviet tank cluster.

After skipping dozens of tanks in the front row of the torrent of Soviet tanks, the 24 rocket launchers mounted under the belly of the armed helicopter aimed directly at the follow-up Soviet tanks.

"嗤嗤嗤..." A series of slight whistles sounded in the air, and 24 rocket launchers quickly spewed out an orange-red flame that was half a meter long to the rear.Subsequently, a rocket more than one meter long spewed out from the launch tube.With the help of the tail flame, it flies towards the target at an increasing speed.

Driven by the powerful power of the rocket tail flame, when the armor-piercing rocket hits the target, the speed of the rocket has reached hundreds of meters per second.Such a powerful armor-piercing speed, coupled with the armor-piercing head of the rocket itself.Armor-piercing rockets with a caliber of only [-] mm easily penetrated the frontal armor of Soviet tanks, and under the action of the tail booster, the explosion was not sent into the tank.

"Boom..." A dull explosion sounded inside the tank, and the tank that was running forward just now seemed to hit an iron wall.The moment the whole car body shook suddenly.Just stopped in place and didn't move.

24 armor-piercing pieces whizzed down from the air, destroying 21 tanks in just the blink of an eye.

Just when the follow-up troops of the Soviet army hadn't reacted from the shock, they didn't even understand where the attack came from.The second round of 24 rockets fired by the armed helicopter, already driven by the booster, rushed towards everyone quickly with orange tail flames.

"Boom boom boom..." Another explosion sounded in the middle of the Soviet tank group. 22 tanks then stopped.

The tanks blocking the front were intact, while the tanks behind exploded.More importantly, the gun that hit the tank was not emitted by the tank gun of the Wehrmacht, but a gun that came from the sky and could emit flames from the tail.

Just when everyone's eyes quickly shifted to the sky, trying to find the attacker.In the dark sky, 24 beams of orange majesty flashed again.Under these orange majestic reflections, the metal body of the gunship exuding bursts of cold light finally flashed past everyone's eyes...

The moment the explosion sounded around everyone.Slightly frightened exclamations also came from everyone's mouths.

"How could the enemy plane be suspended in the sky without moving, and still be able to fire guns at us..."

"Could it be that the National Defense Forces have developed some new weapons that are specially used to fight tanks..."

"An anti-aircraft machine gun, immediately shoot into the air, shoot me down the new aircraft of the Wehrmacht suspended in the air, shoot..."

The dozens of tanks closest to the commander-in-chief of the Soviet tank group immediately began to shoot into the air with the machine gun on the top of the turret.However, because of the cover of the dark night and the fact that the tank cluster did not have anti-air searchlights.The bullets fired by dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns can only fly in the air by luck, without the slightest accuracy.

certainly.Even if a few shots hit the steel plate at the bottom of the helicopter, it cannot cause any damage to the helicopter.Because, although the bottom armor of the helicopter is only [-] millimeters thick, due to the particularity of the helicopter, the armor is all made of lighter and stronger composite steel, which can completely block anti-aircraft machine guns.

Although the twelve helicopters fired two rounds of rockets, but.Both rounds of rockets are aimed and fired without targeting.Now there are Soviet tanks that dare to shoot at the air, that is, at themselves. These pilots are like eagles who have spotted their prey, and quickly aimed their rocket launchers at these tanks.

When a new round of rocket rain roared down and exploded.The firepower of the Soviet Union's air-to-air shooting has been reduced by at least half.

Helicopter rocket launchers aim at the Soviet tanks that are threatening to themselves, and shoot out one deadly rocket after another when they penetrate the armor.The two general-purpose machine gunners on each helicopter were not idle either.

The twelve helicopters were submerged in the night because of their high altitude, but the Soviet tank cluster on the ground appeared very clearly in the eyes of the 24 machine gunners because of the lighting of the tank lights.

After a short search, a group gathered directly behind the tank group, and the temporary headquarters of the Soviet tank group, which was defended by hundreds of guards, came directly into the sight of these machine gunners.

Among the densely packed tank group, only these hundreds of people did not stay in the tank, which shows the particularity of these people.

More importantly, on a battlefield full of tanks, the only bullets fired by general-purpose machine guns can play a lethal role are the few hundred Soviet Red Army.

Therefore, most of the 24 machine gunners pointed their guns at this group of people.

"Da da da..." At the moment when a general-purpose machine gun shot a string of flames from the right door of the helicopter cabin to the ground.More than a dozen other general-purpose machine guns also joined the battle.

More than a dozen general-purpose machine guns fire at a rate of thousands of rounds per minute, condescending, pouring bullets to the ground without any obstructions.Almost every shuttle that goes down can take one, or even the lives of several Soviet Red Army soldiers on the ground.

And in this one-sided massacre, the dozen or so senior officers of the tank group who were completely surrounded by the crowd were directly taken care of by three general-purpose machine guns.

In five seconds, at least three hundred shots shrouded the dozen or so senior officers in the rain with roaring sound.

The guards gathered around these high-ranking officers could block the bullets from the surroundings with their bodies, but they couldn't block the bullets from the sky.Therefore, when the gunshots sounded, a dozen senior officers of the Soviet tank group carrying Venus on their shoulders unfortunately became the first corpses to become a hornet's nest.

Of course, the ordinary Soviet Red Army gathered around a dozen officers was not spared either. With a dozen officers at the center, it was like ripe wheat being cut to the ground in pieces by the rain.

In a blink of an eye, the Soviet Tank Group Command, which was still buzzing with people just now, turned into a Shura hell, with the corpses of soldiers beaten into honeycombs everywhere, and the stumps and arms of soldiers who were interrupted, emitting bursts of heart-piercing sounds. Severely wounded screaming...
