Fengxian Jiangshan

"Nonsense!" Zhang Tingshu glared at Wang Dingming, the deputy head of the regiment, "The ruler is short and the inch is strong. Who said I'm going to use this thing to charge into battle?"

"What's the use of that?" Wang Dingming scratched his head and couldn't help asking.

"This thing has powerful firepower and a certain degree of protection. If it is placed in the rear and patrols the railway line for us, which guerrilla group do you think can destroy the railway?"

Zhang Tingshu stabilized Wang Dingming with one sentence. It is true that different weapons have different uses. The key is to find a stage to display their value.If an armored train encounters a tank unit, it will be a dead end, but in the face of ordinary guerrillas, they are out-and-out killers.

Moreover, the comfort of armored trains is far higher than that of tanks, and they can continuously patrol the road. In addition, because the trains burn coal, they can also save precious fuel.Since Fengjun took control of the Outer Northeast, the distance of one or two thousand kilometers in the eastern section of the Siberian Railway is all under the control of Fengjun.In such a vast area, there are weaknesses everywhere. Whether it is infantry, cavalry, or even armored forces, it is a huge waste. Only armored trains are the most economical.

Zhang Tingshu stared at the two captured trains, with a smug smile on his face. After the battle, he must suggest to his elder brother to build more armored trains, so that the troops along the railway line can be saved!

"Leave ten armored vehicles and take good care of these two big guys. There must be no problems. The others will follow me to attack the Russian army in Sherlovaya Gora!"

With Zhang Tingshu's order, the tank roared again and rushed towards the east.

At this time, the general offensive of the Feng army also began. After the air force bombarded the Russians indiscriminately, the artillery of the Feng army also bombarded the Russians who were defending in danger. Large-caliber heavy shells fell on the Russians from time to time On the head of the Russian, the air wave from the explosion shattered all the rocks, mud and trees flew around, and the Russian position was in a mess.

"Master, the Chinese offensive is too fierce, and the comrades in front need support!"

Paul paced back and forth in the headquarters, frowning into a pimple. He sent an armored train to protect the railway line. Up to now, there is no news, and he does not know what the situation is. Now Fengjun has launched frontal fortifications again. His I can't help but feel flustered in my heart. The Chinese made it clear that they wanted to wipe them out.

The most troublesome thing now is not the front, but whether the back road can be kept!When he was silent, the deputy division commander ran over with a change of color. He walked a few steps and came in front of Paul: "Comrade Paul, our armored train is finished!"

"What?" Paul turned pale in shock, grabbed the opponent's chest, and said in disbelief: "How did the Chinese do it? The armored train is invincible. How could something go wrong?"

"Comrade Paul, the Chinese use a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. Our armored trains are simply vulnerable. Now the railway line has been cut off!"

After hearing the news, Paul was completely frightened and weak, the most terrible thing finally happened. He and his men were trapped in the isolated city, and their fate seemed to have been decided!

Just when they were at a loss, Zhang Tingshu led the armored troops to the back of the Russian defense line. This is where the Russian defenses were the most lax. The tanks easily ran over several trenches and faced the steel monster. The Russians There is no way.

The tank knocked out the only firepower point, and the armored vehicle followed closely behind, eliminating the scattered infantry. After breaking through the opening, they quickly developed in depth.If you encounter a difficult bone, you will stay temporarily. The main task is to continue to intersperse and completely disrupt the Russian defense line.

This method really worked. When the Russian soldiers saw the tank rushing, they all panicked to the extreme, and fled in all directions, in a panic.When the rear was in chaos, the entire defense system collapsed, and Zhang Tingshu and the others destroyed the communication line. The Russians suddenly seemed to be paralyzed. The army has rushed to the Russian position, killing and hacking the Russians.

At this point, Paul also knew very well that this battle could not be fought any longer, so he could only give the order to retreat with tears in his eyes.

However, retreating is far more difficult than imagined. Fengjun has a large amount of armor power. In terms of mobility, how can a two-legged person run over the tracks, and the railway line was cut off again. In fact, from the moment the order to retreat was ordered In the beginning, it was an out-and-out defeat.

The main force of the Feng army successfully crossed the Borshinozine Mountains, and the Russians they met along the way turned into lambs. They would not have thought that the battle situation would suddenly change, and they were all at a loss. The Feng army easily caught them all. captured.

After Zhang Tinglan received the victory report, his face also showed joy, and he hurriedly said: "Send a telegram to Zhang Tingshu, don't get entangled in Sherova Yagora, his armored troops will immediately gather, along the railway line, go west Launch an assault and take advantage of the chaos to seize the strongholds along the way, the sooner the better!"

After the order was issued, the armored troops of the Feng army immediately moved into action, running wildly across the vast Siberian wilderness, getting closer and closer to Chita, less than [-] kilometers away.When the battle report reached Blueher, this newly rising general in Russia was completely terrified!

Chapter 569 The Ambition of Meiying

"Marshal, these two big guys are really good, we should also build a few columns!"

Surrounded by two Russian armored trains, Sun Anhu marveled: "This thing has strong firepower and is easy to deal with infantry. It can also play a role in guarding the railway line and supporting infantry in the city. There are more and more railways in the three eastern provinces. Absolutely inseparable from armored trains."

"That's right." Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "But the Russian stuff is a bit outdated, and we need to improve it. Take the two 76mm guns at the front and rear as an example. They have good range and power, but the rate of fire is poor. In addition, when the Russians built trains, they did not consider the issue of air defense, and if they encountered air force bombing, they would become live targets, so the machine guns on the trains had to be modified to be dual-purpose.”

"The commander hit the nail on the head, and what he said is reasonable, but there is no time to modify it right now, and there is an important task!" Sun Anhu said: "The second young master led the armored soldiers all the way and ran more than 110 kilometers in less than three days. It's unimaginable, it's amazing speed!"

"That's right, the second child also sent me a telegram to complain about the logistics. These two armored trains can just help escort supplies and prevent guerrillas along the way." Zhang Tinglan also said very satisfied.

Entering the era of mechanization, the pace of war is getting faster and faster. Ever since Zhang Tingshu received the order to advance in depth towards Russia, he immediately reversed his line of defense and advanced quickly along the railway.

In the history of human warfare, this is the first time that armored forces have been used on a large scale for a rapid assault. Their speed of action is far beyond imagination. They didn't leave time to fortify the wall and clear the country.

The armored soldiers rushed out of the direction easily, killing and crushing the panicked Russians.It took Zhang Tingshu and the others two days and three nights to run 110 kilometers, and more than 40 kilometers in almost one day and night.This kind of advance speed has exceeded the imagination of many people, and Feng Jun's jaws dropped in shock.

Zhang Tingshu not only wants to march, but also has to deal with the endless stream of Russian troops.It took almost the same time for Fengjun to send troops from Manchuria, and it took less than [-] kilometers to walk, which has already made Fengjun proud.

But the tank soldiers broke the record easily, and the big guys even suspected that the armored soldiers would keep rushing down and directly kill Chita.Of course this is just an illusion.Zhang Tingshu stopped about [-] kilometers away from Chita.

In front of him is Aginskoye. When the Russians built the Middle East Road, it was a branch line drawn from here, which passed through Manchuria and directly went to China.

This is where the two railways meet.The Russians were guarding heavily, so of course Zhang Tinglan wanted to rush directly there.Take this important city into your own hands.And once it's under control.Jiang Deng selected their Outer Northeast Army to join forces with the main force, and the two armies could attack Chita together.

This is definitely a very attractive thing, but Master Zhang Er finally gave up. The main reason is that the logistics supplies can't keep up.

The armored troops charge at high speed, which looks very majestic, but the required logistical supply consumption is also quite astonishing.Every tank is an oil tiger, eating oil much faster than people consume food.The oil they were carrying was running out, and without oil, they couldn't move.No matter how powerful the armor looks, it will be turned into a pile of scrap metal.

Another problem is that a large number of tanks have serious quality problems. Sixty tanks were injured in the battle, and a total of five were destroyed. However, due to mechanical failures, more than 20 tanks were completely laid down. The key parts of the rear must be obtained to make these tanks run again, and the situation of armored vehicles is similar.

The combat power was reduced by about half, and Second Young Master Zhang didn't dare to take any risks anymore. He could only honestly wait for the support from the rear to catch up as soon as possible.They were also at the edge of the combat radius of the Fengjun Air Force at this time. If they were a little further away, the plane would have basically landed.

With the protection of the plane, Zhang Tingshu and the others felt more at ease. The tank soldiers who were free all followed behind the technicians and asked them various questions about tank maintenance.After such a rush, they finally understood the importance of tank maintenance. With this ability, they would have an extra life on the battlefield, and no one dared to neglect it.

Wang Dingming, the deputy head of the regiment, did it himself, and replaced the tracks of the tank with several soldiers, and then climbed to the bottom to check the engine, fuel tank and other problems.After working around, his whole body was covered in black engine oil, like a little ghost.

"Leader, let's design tanks in the future. I think the most important point is that the leather is reliable and the maintenance must be simple. Anyone with a little experience can handle it! If you really go crazy, the most important thing is to have weapons in hand. Once Lay down, all the good things are useless!"

Wang Dingming said with great emotion while wiping his sweat.Weapons are not as sophisticated as possible. Setting high performance standards is often a means of fooling laymen and defrauding purchase funds. The struggle between industrialized countries requires high-quality, low-cost, and cost-effective weapons.

At the same time, we must also consider the quality of the people, which is suitable for large-scale equipment use. After all, history has proved that the strength of quality can be completely overwhelmed by the advantage of quantity. This is also Zhang Tinglan's philosophy of developing military industry. Use first.

Zhang Tingshu said with a smile: "In the future, you all sort out your suggestions. I will go to the company and ask them to consider our needs when designing tanks."

While they were talking, there was the sound of a train whistle, Feng Jun's logistics supplies had already arrived, and Zhang Tingshu hurried to the train station to meet them.

Two captured armored trains came one after the other, with three military trains sandwiched between them. The trains carried a large amount of oil, spare parts, ammunition and food. In addition, Zhang Henian also rushed over with some soldiers, and together with Zhang Tingshu, they guarded the current front, and waited for an opportunity to capture Aginskoye.

Zhang Henian shook his tall body and jumped onto the platform. Seeing Zhang Tingshu approaching, he smiled and gave his thumbs up: "Second young master became famous in the first battle, and the commander and others praised you! I'm going to come here quickly." , so that I can learn some real skills from the second young master!"

"Brother He Nian, you can take on the position of brigade commander of the main division. I am the commander of the brigade. How dare I teach you."

"No, it won't work when you go back. The commander-in-chief has decided to expand the armored force and establish an independent armored brigade. After the production capacity catches up, an armored division will be established. The time has come for the second young master to show his skills!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tingshu's eyes lit up immediately. He didn't care about the change of military rank. What really moved Zhang Tingshu was Fengjun's attitude towards armored soldiers. It seemed that after this battle, the resistance to the development of armored forces completely disappeared.

The direction of military development determines the direction of military expenditure. Although Zhang Tingshu is the second son of the old man and Zhang Tinglan's younger brother, there are some things that even Zhang Tinglan can't easily decide. Now that he has a solid record, In the future, a large amount of resources will be allocated to armored forces, so no one can say anything more.

"Does my brother have anything to say?"

"The commander-in-chief just asked us to actively prepare for the battle and guard against the Russians' counterattack."

Just as Zhang Henian and the others were stepping up their preparations for the battle, the news of Feng's victory again came out. Military observers from all over the world were studying the map carefully. The two armies of Feng's army were constantly advancing. It is not impossible for Chita to join forces.

In particular, the rapid advance of more than 100 kilometers in three or two days has completely shocked the countries. Their evaluation of the combat effectiveness of the Fengjun can not help but improve several levels, and the Fengjun can at least reach the level of the second- and third-rate powers.

The envoys of the United States and the United Kingdom met again urgently. Klein and Eston looked at each other in dismay. Facing the victory of Fengjun, they had mixed emotions on their faces, including anger, doubt, joy, and distress.

"Feng Jun has indeed possessed considerable strength. Using loans and old ammunition is a way to win over Beiyang. It is obviously not enough to deal with Feng Jun. It seems that we need to come up with something real!" Klein said with a sigh.

"Perhaps your opinion is right, but key technologies must be strictly controlled, and two restrictions must be set for Fengjun, which cannot be touched. Only in this way can we cooperate with him!" Eston said with a sneer.
