Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

Kulun, the Northern Theater Command.

Sun Liren, wearing a military coat, stood beside the sand table, lost in thought.

Wei Lihuang, deputy commander of the Third Army, came to his side.

He took a look at the sand table of East and West Siberia and the military flag deduction on it, breaking the silence in the headquarters.

"Commander, what are you thinking about? In terms of our strength.

Although the Soviet army is a veteran power and has slightly more troops than us, their success rate in fighting us is less than 20%.

To be honest, I don't think we will lose."

Wei Lihuang had been beaten by the Red Alert Corps, and had studied at the National Defense University. Now he is a middle-level general of the Chinese National Defense Army.

He is very familiar with the strength of the Chinese National Defense Army.

He knows the strength of the Third Army even better.

As the veteran mechanized force of the entire Chinese National Defense Army, the Third Army is extremely powerful.

Their army alone has seven divisions, with more than 1,000 tanks. There are four to five thousand armored vehicles of various types, and tens of thousands of trucks.

Although they faced a Soviet army with a strength of more than 500,000.

But Wei Lihuang couldn't think of how the Soviet army would fight to defeat them.

What's more, they still have absolute air superiority, and they have the existence of the First Airborne Army and the 100th Air Assault Division.

So Wei Lihuang is full of confidence in this battle.

Sun Liren shook his head and said,"I have never worried that we will lose. I wonder if there is a better and faster way to defeat them.

According to the intelligence collected these days, it can be analyzed that they will take action in the next few days.

We just need to wait now, and then fight back fiercely according to the original plan.

Let all the troops prepare for battle these days.

This battle is our first decisive battle with the great powers on foreign soil.

We must win this battle, and we must win beautifully.

Let the whole world know the strength of the Chinese National Defense Force.

We can't let the navy steal too much of the limelight."

The navy has been in the limelight in Europe.

As an army officer, he still feels a little jealous.

Moreover, this battle is the first one he leads.

He must fight beautifully.

This battle plan is also named Operation Winter.

The Chinese National Defense Army will be like the cold current in Siberia, plunging the entire East and West Siberia into winter.

The main combat target is the main force of the Soviet Army in the east.

That is, the Far East Special Army led by Blucher.

As for the Soviet Army in Irkutsk, it only needs the Seventh Army and the 41st Army to support each other and block the opponent.

Then turn around to deal with the opponent and take Irkutsk.

This is the battle plan of Operation Winter.

There is no fancy action, just crush it directly.

As for why you need to wait for the opponent to attack first.

The reason is also very simple. Single.

Gather them together first, so that they can be wiped out in one fell swoop.

But Blucher hesitated about Moscow's order to take the initiative to attack.

He did not think that his army of more than 200,000 could gain any benefit from the Chinese National Defense Army in Chita.

Mengyuan has now been taken.

The Chinese reinforcements can continuously reinforce Chita.

It has further increased the difficulty of retaking Chita.

But Chita and Ulan-Ude are both their cities, and they are also important node cities on the artery of the Far East Railway.

They must be retaken at all costs.

So they can only execute the order from Moscow.

Together with the Central and Siberian Front, they will attack the Chinese National Defense Army on the salient.

Beat them back to Mengyuan, and it would be best to take back Mengyuan.

Blucher didn't know why Moscow was so confident about this action.

March 2, 1935.

This day has a special meaning for Jiang Fan.

Because on March 2, 1933, he traveled to this time and space.

Today is exactly the two-year anniversary of his time travel.

On this day, the Soviet Far East Special Army and the Central Siberian Front launched general offensives against Ulan-Ude and Chita respectively.

Uruliga is located 95 kilometers southeast of Chita.

The 12th Mechanized Infantry Division of the Third Army is stationed here.

This is also the forefront of the Chita defense line, located along the Far East Railway. If the Soviet army launches an attack, this must be the first place to be attacked.

The 12th Mechanized Infantry Division built a standard defense line here. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

In addition to the 12th Mechanized Infantry Division.

Behind the left and right wings, there are also the 13th and 14th Mechanized Infantry Divisions stationed to cover the left and right wings of the 12th Division. The

2nd Artillery Division is on standby about 5 kilometers behind the 12th Mechanized Division.

Sun Liren arranged it this way because he wanted the 12th Mechanized Infantry Division to act like a magnet to attract the main force of the Soviet Army here.

Then the lurking 3rd, 5th Armored Division, and 6th Mechanized Infantry Division will attack directly from the front.[]

The 13th and 14th Mechanized Infantry Divisions outflanked the left and right wings.

They divided and surrounded the main force of the Soviet army in the Uruliga area, severely damaging or even annihilating them.

However, Blucher was worthy of being one of the famous Soviet generals.

His fighting style seemed to be more cautious.

He did not put all his troops on the Uruliga defense line.

Instead, he only put half of his troops.

The other half of his troops were in the Galkino area less than 30 kilometers behind Uruliga, where they built a defense line.

This was also a way out for him.

Once the battle on the front line was unfavorable, at least this defense line could still block the offensive of the Third Army.

After all, the Uruliga area was so large that 100,000 offensive troops were already a lot.

On the Uruliga front, the Soviet army assembled more than 300 artillery pieces with a caliber of more than 122 mm.

These were heavy artillery pieces of several artillery divisions.

Blucher learned the lesson from Kyakhta this time and did not use a large number of heavy artillery in a concentrated manner, but instead adopted a dispersed deployment.

First, to prevent the mysterious artillery of China, and second, to prevent the Chinese air force.

The more than 300 artillery pieces were divided into more than a dozen mobile artillery positions.

Then a dedicated line was established to facilitate the command of operations.

When the pointer pointed to 9 o'clock in the morning on March 2, the Soviet Far East Group Army's heavy artillery roared.

A large number of artillery shells whistled towards the direction of Uruliga.

"Boom boom boom....ï½€."

Immediately, a intensive artillery bombardment was launched on the defense line of more than ten kilometers.

There were flames and gunpowder smoke everywhere.

The 18th Mechanized Infantry Brigade of the 12th Mechanized Infantry Division defended this defense line.

The main force stayed in the camp behind and could provide support at any time.

When the soldiers on the position heard the whistling sound coming from above their heads, they quickly got into the nearest anti-artillery hole.

There was not much else on the position, but the number of anti-artillery holes was very large, even more dense than the firing points.

"Find out their artillery positions immediately and let them know whose artillery is more powerful."

Chita is the headquarters of the Third Army.

As the deputy commander, Wei Lihuang commanded the battle here.

After receiving the radio from the 12th Mechanized Infantry Division, he decisively issued an order.

He was not afraid of scaring away the Soviet army on the opposite side.

Because Chita was a place they had to recapture, and at all costs.

Even Blucher, the commander, could not change this point and could only resolutely execute it.

The reason why he knew this was that the Soviet Russian code had been deciphered by the intelligence agency affiliated with the Northern Theater.

And the latest transistor supercomputer was used.

The number of operations was as high as more than 200,000 times per second.

So how could the Soviet army not be defeated this time.

Even many of Blucher's arrangements, Wei Li Huang knew that they were strong.

For example, there were more than a dozen mobile artillery.

In order to deal with this powerful artillery force.

Wei Lihuang also concentrated the rocket launchers of the entire army.

There were a total of 14 self-propelled rocket artillery battalions, with a total of 336 ML132 tracked self-propelled rocket launchers.

It was still the same 50-mounted 132 mm, but it was replaced with a tracked chassis and could follow the mechanized troops to fight.

The battalion was an artillery team specifically to deal with this so-called mobile artillery unit.

Wei Lihuang was deeply skeptical about whether the mobile artillery of the towed heavy artillery could be mobile.

The Third Army released more than a dozen artillery reconnaissance aircraft and began to search for the Soviet artillery positions.
