Chapter 601: The Position Was Broken
Chalrokov never imagined that the minefield he was so proud of could not even last for an hour and a half. He never expected that the Chinese army would rush forward without fear of casualties during the attack. What was going on?
According to his original estimate, the enemy's army would be trapped in the minefield, and it would take a long time to rush over. When the enemy began to clear the mines, our army could take this opportunity to counterattack them.
If the people of the 32nd Division could seize the opportunity and rush to their rear at this time, then the outcome would be decided for us. But now, not only did that situation not occur, but our military camp was in chaos.
"Go get your leader for me. I said go get your leader for me."
Charrokov spoke loudly, but the people around him were running around and didn't take his words seriously at all. His guards were sweating anxiously, hoping to find a responsible person from the surrounding area. Unfortunately, the bombing just now caused too many wounded soldiers around, and everyone was busy rescuing their comrades.
damn it!
General Chalrokov cursed fiercely, and it was unclear whether he was scolding his own soldiers or the Chinese army. In short, the war had just begun, and the entire military camp already had the temperament of defeat.
"Follow me back to headquarters."
In desperation, he could only go back to the command center. Although the command center was still ahead and might be even more dangerous, he could not do anything standing here. When there was order, the people around him would regard you as their commander, but do you think there was any order at all now?
Even if someone saw the commander, they would pretend not to see him. After all, no one is stupid. If they run over to salute you now, you will probably assign me an impossible task. In such a chaotic military camp, do you still want to turn the tide?
Just when his guards determined the location of the command center, a large number of planes appeared in the southern sky again. There were enemy armored forces on the ground and their second batch of bomber formations in the sky. This was simply impossible to resist. This kind of attack method had been heard of before, but no one had ever been able to make it a reality because it required too high a level of mechanization for the army. But the Chinese were able to do it. Where did they get these weapons and equipment?
"General, we can't go to the headquarters. This is the position of the 305th Regiment. I know where their air-raid shelter is."
A guard pulled Charrokov's horse reins and told him that he could not go to the headquarters now. In such a chaotic situation, by the time he ran to the headquarters, the enemy would have dropped bombs several times. The bombs did not know whether he was a general or not. If he was a general, they would probably chase him.
In desperation, he could only go to an air-raid shelter with his men. Inside the air-raid shelter, General Chalrockov finally met the officers of the 305th Regiment.
When the war just started, these people did not stay at their posts, but ran to the air-raid shelter as soon as possible. When they saw the commander coming down, they were so scared that their blood was about to freeze. Why did the commander come to us?
However, General Challokov did not have the chance to reprimand them, as there was a huge tremor on the ground, and all kinds of dust kept falling from the top of the air-raid shelter.
They were all dug out temporarily and there were no various reinforcement facilities, so it was normal for dust to be shaken down when the bomb outside exploded.
When the armored forces attacked just now, they found that there were quite a few resistance facilities in the Rakshasa military camp. If the armored forces were to push forward, it would not be impossible, but the attack speed would be much slower.
Just at this time, the second batch of planes had also finished loading, so all the armored troops retreated three hundred meters and waited in the distance.
When the local 72nd Army's armored units retreated, many Russian officers understood what it meant. It was not that we had repelled their attack, and they didn't know what to say to the celebrating soldiers, but to retreat a bit to prevent their own planes from blowing up their tanks.
Those celebrating soldiers also paid a price, and that price was their lives. The officers who noticed something was wrong ran to the air-raid shelter. At this time, they could not care about so many things and had to save their own lives first.
There was a telescope in the air-raid shelter. General Challokov looked at the raging fire outside. He felt difficulty breathing and even a little suffocated.
He had high hopes for Ulaanbaatar's defense line. As long as the follow-up troops arrived, they could launch a beautiful counterattack here. But now, let alone a beautiful counterattack, this place cannot be defended at all.
The first line of defense in the distance had been lost. There were four regiments with 7,500 people on the first line of defense. They were considered the most elite in the entire army. They broke through the first line of defense on the first day. These 7,500 people were either killed, ran away, or became prisoners of the enemy.
Fortunately, the second line of defense is still in their hands, but the second line of defense is less than 3 kilometers away from Ulaanbaatar. If the second line of defense is lost, Ulaanbaatar will not be able to be defended, which means that the capital of the Xiongnu steppe will be lost.
The Rakshasa Military Committee did not say it explicitly, but he also heard the news from other channels. The worst result would be that Ulaanbaatar would be the border, the south would belong to the 72nd Army of China, and the north would belong to the original Xiongnu Kingdom. But if Ulaanbaatar was lost, then there would be no so-called Xiongnu Kingdom.
He had been puzzled by the Luosha Foreign Affairs Committee's previous negotiations. How could China, a backward nation, dare to repeatedly reject our negotiations? Now he finally understood. While it was indeed a backward nation, even backward nations had valiant armies. When their armies were unleashed like tigers, they could crush all of us to death. Why negotiate with us?
Tigers attach great importance to their territory. Any person or animal who dares to enter the tiger's territory may eventually become its food. Of course, it may not eat you when it is full, but it will still bite you to death.
Thinking of this, General Chalrokov touched his neck unconsciously. Am I also being targeted by a tiger?
