Beiyang reactionaries

This is all because of insufficient reserves.

Originally, fighter jets did not dare to take off to protect the airspace. Now that the anti-aircraft artillery units cannot participate in the battle, the Chinese bombers really bombed their own positions unscrupulously.

"Let the front line report the battle situation at any time."

"Yes."

Zhukov looked at the map and considered the future of the 40 troops of the Far Eastern Military Region.What Zhukov can do now is limited, and he can only procrastinate for time.But Zhukov really couldn't see the way out for this army.

Being able to maintain it until now is already very capable of Zhukov.

The army became a lone army, and there were logistical problems. The morale of the Far Eastern Military Region began to waver long ago.This is due to Zhukov's strong ability, which stabilized the morale of this army.But it can be stabilized now, but the longer it takes, the more difficult it will be for this force to stabilize.

Wait, Zhukov can only wait.

Wait for the outcome of the negotiations between China and the Soviet Union.Only when China and the Soviet Union have a good negotiation result can this army truly get out of the crisis.It's just that Zhukov has deep worries in his heart. China's recent actions have become more and more serious, and it should be that it can't wait for the outcome of the Sino-Soviet negotiations.What should I do if this is the case?

Compared with himself, Zhukov is more worried about the 40 army in his hands.

"Commander."

"How's it going."

"News from the Blagoveshchensk (Hailanpao) position. Instead of bombing our defensive positions, the Chinese Air Force flew over our forward positions, flew to Blagoveshchensk, and began bombing Blagoveshchensk Goveshchensk. Blagoveshchensk is completely unprepared, and the anti-aircraft artillery units are deployed in forward positions, so there is no air defense at all. Now the situation in Blagoveshchensk is very bad."

"what?"

Zhukov stood up.

This is completely different from what I expected.

What do you mean?

, After the outbreak of the Chinese Air Force war, it was mainly air strikes on defensive positions.Even when the air strikes Irkutsk, it is also a defensive position against the army.Cities were never bombed.But why did the Chinese Air Force attack Blagoveshchensk this time.

Zhukov couldn't figure it out.

"How many planes?"

"About 120 planes flew over in the first wave. About [-] bombers and [-] fighters."

"120 aircraft."

Zhukov frowned.

This is the advantage.The Chinese army can easily mobilize hundreds of aircraft to participate in the bombing. 120 aircraft, that is, the first wave of attack.There will be a second wave and a third wave later, when hundreds of aircraft will participate in the attack.

Although Blagoveshchensk is a big city in the Far East, it is actually not very big, and the urban population is not large.If it was intercepted by hundreds of planes, it is estimated that the main places would be bombed.

"Jingle Bell--"

"I'm Zhukov."

"Commander, report from the frontline observation post. About 140 Chinese planes flew over the position and headed straight for Khabarovsk."

"I see."

Zhukov put down the phone, very surprised.

What exactly does China want to do.But no matter what you do, since the Chinese planes are flying over, you can't just ignore them.Immediately said: "How many planes can we take off?"

"Commander, very little. The aviation fuel in our hands has bottomed out."

"How many flak units do we have in Khabarovsk?"

"Only the 66th Brigade of Antiaircraft Artillery."

The anti-aircraft artillery units of the Far Eastern Military Region are all on the front line.Moreover, antiaircraft artillery in this era is not as powerful as imagined, and it is impossible for an antiaircraft artillery unit of a brigade to play much role.So Zhukov scratched his head.

The air force cannot send out, and the anti-aircraft artillery brigade is useless.

"Wait a minute. Get the fighters ready for combat, and the others for air defense."

Zhukov thought for a while, but still wanted to see what China was going to do.

1939 11 Month 1 Day.

The Northeast Military Region of China started a big bombing, a big bombing that can be recorded in history.

"Boom boom-"

"Boom-boom-boom-"

"Jingle Bell--"

"Hey Hey hey--"

1939 11 Month 1 Day.

After a few days of preparation, although it did not fully reach the number in the plan.However, the Northeast Military Region decided to implement a large-scale bombing plan to end the Far East campaign as soon as possible and solve the Soviet Far East Army on the opposite side.

On this day, China mobilized 4400 planes, including 2500 bombers and 1900 fighter jets, to carry out bombardments to the two major cities of the Soviet Union in the Far East, Blagoveshchensk (Hailanpao) and Khabarovsk (Khabarovsk) A full fourteen hours of bombing.

More than 7000 tons of aerial bombs were dropped on the two cities in one day.

A sea of ​​fire.

In Blagoveshchensk and Khabarovsk, most of the houses in these two cities are made of wood.Although China's aerial bombs did not use the later incendiary bombs, after throwing them down, they still plunged the two cities into flames.

It is really because houses with wooden structures like this in Russia are too easy to catch fire.

Once the fire started, the whole street burned continuously.

Originally, although China had carried out a large-scale bombing, it was impossible to completely destroy the two cities with such a large-scale bombing.The bombing this time was mainly to bomb the densely populated areas of the two cities.These places are indeed blown to pieces.

With the addition of everyone, the resulting situation is even more serious than calculated.It can be said that the first day was very good.

The two cities are completely unable to fight back against bombings of this scale.

The anti-aircraft artillery units are protecting their fortifications in the forward positions, and it is difficult for the air force units in their hands to participate in the battle because of the lack of aviation oil.Especially looking at so many planes in China, the air force of the Far East Military Region is also staring blankly.

"Commander, the report from Blagoveshchensk. Preliminary statistics show that more than 6000 civilian houses were blown up in Blagoveshchensk, causing more than 2 casualties. They are still counting the specific data. And During the bombing, fires broke out in many places in the city, and many places have not been completely extinguished until now. The situation is not very good. Some logistics supplies of the military in Blagoveshchensk were also lost in this bombing. Big."

"What about the army?"

"There is nothing going on at the moment, and the situation is relatively stable. But this bombing has made the logistics of Blagoveshchensk even more tense. And with so many casualties and so many houses destroyed, the frontline troops are very likely..."

The loss is too great.
