Chapter 126 The Great Retreat
The land warfare led by the Republican Army was really too fast. This cold winter was very difficult for the Haisong army. When they came out to move, the supply line would be harassed by various kinds of people. If they didn't come out to move, the cities they took before the snow were independent and would be taken down one by one by one by the major battles launched by the Republican Army. If they wanted to fight the harassment, they were unfamiliar with the place. In the unfamiliar weather, they fought in teams and were met one by one by the Republican Army guerrillas, and the traffic between cities was cut off. The Republican Army's winter offensive was like a blizzard and the Haisong, who had only 200,000 troops left to fight, was deeply frozen.
Beiliang was panicked, not only Beiliang, but also the Haisong legions from other regions were panicked by the cold cold on this continent and the unique tactics of the Republican army. On January 5, 1706, the arrowheads of five 10,000-ton battleships broke through the waves, and the cannons on the central axis, as the warships docked at the port, hung up ice tiles under the cold wind, adding some majesty to these steel monsters. As this large fleet arrived at Haisongnan
The sub-regional controller, Mr. Chang Shengchong, felt the coldness of the northeast, and Chang Shengchong frowned. It would be fine if the weather was cold. Through the frost-flowing glass window, Chang Shengchong felt the atmosphere on the street very cold. Soldiers bowed their backs and shrank their hands, tremblingly walking on the street. There was no scene of victory in their eyes. It was obvious that the army here had not had the feeling of victory recently.
Chang Shengchong stepped into the brightly lit building in the center of Shenyang City, and showed the highest certificate of the Elderly Council. The soldiers at the door respectfully took Chang Shengchong's certificate, but after the document was announced, Chang Shengchong waited for seven or eight minutes in the cold wind. A female staff member rushed upstairs with apologetic face.
"Sorry, Master Cheng, Commander Beiliang has just had an urgent matter. So you have been waiting for a long time." The female intelligence officer explained softly. Chang Sheng raised his eyebrows and stopped in the aisle, saying, "What urgent matter is that I want me to wait at the door? If Beiliang encounters that once a month, I don't mind going outside the door to avoid it." Such a careless words came out of Chang Sheng's mouth, which put a lot of pressure on the female intelligence officer. The momentum of the veteran for a long time was enough to rush across the air to this very intellectual woman who usually acted very intellectual.
The female intelligence officer explained embarrassingly. "This, hey, elder Chang?" Chang Shengchong ignored her at all and walked forward directly.
When he saw Beiliang, Chang Sheng Chong understood why he had been waiting outside the door for a while. Beiliang is now wearing a steamy uniform, and his face is obviously wiped clean with water. It looks normal, but his eyes are not covered with blood and there is a faint smell of alcohol on his body.
Seeing Chang Sheng Chong, Beiliang squeezed a smile on his face and said, "You are here. Hum." Chang Sheng Chong spitted out this word from his nostrils, then hooked his feet back, and closed the door with a "bang" sound (closed with his feet). The closed doorman bumped into the bridge of the female intelligence officer's nose.
Kitara shouted to the door hoarsely: "Li Man (the name of which female intelligence officer), you can go."
Sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, Chang Sheng Chong said, "I didn't expect this place to be so cold, it made you frozen." Kitara smiled faintly, Chang Sheng Chong said, "Do you have red wine? The year will be given at least 1970 years." Seeing Kitara's face stunned, Chang Sheng Chong said, "Don't tell me, you don't have it here? If you eat alone, don't blame me for being polite."
The item of wine is now a military item on the Northeast battlefield because it is very high in calories and warms the body. Of course, the wine that Kitara took out from the mahogany window is impossible for high-end soldiers to taste.
After drinking a few sips, he felt the cold air on his body be removed. Chang Sheng Chong raised his head and said, "This thing is good. Drink two cups in winter to promote blood circulation. But if it is used to relieve sorrow, it is not necessary." Put down the empty glass cup, Chang Sheng Chong looked at Kitara and said, "The elders are the overall situation. We are the first. Everyone should pay attention to this rule, no one can challenge it, even the elders cannot violate it. The case of the first generation of the elders is very educational to me." (Note: The first generation of the elders of the elders once tried to lead the army to attack the Senate, but was completely frozen by the elders, but they still maintained their identity as the elders and enjoyed the privileges of the elders.)
At the words of this friend, Kitara smiled kindly. At this time, Chang Sheng turned his mind and said with a hint of teasing: "So, I will confiscate the wine in your cabinet. Don't look at me, I am protecting the health of an elder."
Beiliang smiled reluctantly and said, "Chang Sheng Chong, this office will be yours soon." Chang Sheng Chong waved his hand and said, "The wine is mine, the office is still yours." Beiliang's face showed a strange look. At this time, Chang Sheng Chong said, "Isn't it just that 50,000 people died, and all kinds of injuries and injuries were reduced by 100,000. Even if the twelve armies in the Northeast are completely destroyed, the Elderly Association will give priority to getting you out. What is the overall situation, we are the overall situation."
Beiliang was stuttering, Chang Shengchong said, "What, what do you think?" Beiliang sighed and said, "I am not capable of this battle." Chang Shengchong immediately retorted: "What does it mean that you are not capable of it? You are facing peerless generals. In this era, the generals of the Ming Empire who fought in the east and west fell in the hands of that person. You led the troops to pass through him for so long. Who can do this era? It's not that you lack the ability, but that the strength in your hands is not enough. Everyone believes in you, why did you give up on yourself?"
Beiliang's face was a little surprised. Chang Shengchong continued, "You are familiar with Northeast Asia. Only you have fought against Ren Di. The veterans will not be able to change their generals in the last battle." Then, Chang Shengchong ignored Beiliang's surprise and with helpless eyes, he took out a roll of wrinkled envelope from his pocket, which read the ss secret.
But when Kitara looked at this document, his face became more and more surprised, and his expression became heavier. After reading it, he raised his head and cried to Chang Sheng and said, "Is it too much trouble to do this?"
Chang Sheng Chong smiled confidently: "It's not a big deal. On the contrary, it's very good." Beiliang said with a strange smile: "With the army originally planned to occupy the entire East Asian continent to seize the Northeast Asian continent, why is it because you seem to be a deal that is not to be compensated."
Chang Shengchong poured himself a glass of wine again and said, "The reason why we elders can rule the world is because of our advanced strategic vision. You might as well take a look at the information brought by our ancestors to see how the newly established countries on the land of East Asia have the upper hand after fighting with superpowers?"
Kitara lowered his head and recalled the time and space history of the first generation of veterans, and then said with some uncertainty: "Will the Republic regret its rapid rise in victory in the war with us, and then after decades of development, it will gradually move back to the world?"
Chang Shengzhang snapped his fingers and said, "That's right, so we must not let them feel like victory. The million-dollar army we prepared before was originally to seize a market, but now this million-dollar army is to cut off the competitive threat for us in the next fifty years. We cannot give them victory, occupy a fertile land that is easy to defend and difficult to attack on the East Asian continent, and curb their development in the north. This move can affect their development for hundreds of years. So that they will be threatened by both land and oceans. In addition, our blockade, as long as it takes a long time, the longer it delays, the more they will be eliminated, and when their ambitions with us are exhausted, they will gradually become aware of each other and actively integrate into our economic system."
Looking at Beiliang who was stunned, Chang Shengchong smiled and said, "This battle determines the world pattern." Beiliang continued to flip the documents and said, "The elders will ask me to shrink my defense line, but now Changchun has a heavy snow blocked the road, and many materials and weapons cannot pass." Chang Shengchong said, "Then give up the baggage and heavy weapons and just withdraw people. Our battle should not be fought with them in winter."
When Beiliang heard this, the piece of paper on his hand trembled. His courage was great.
Three days later, on January 8th, a telegrapher in the Republican Army Command immediately took out a message and ran to Ren Di and others, shouting: "The enemy has retreated, and the Changchun Yitian has begun to retreat."
Ren Di's eyes returned from the sand table, picked up the telegrams from the front line and read them carefully twice. One hour later, telegrams came one after another, and various signs showed that Hai Song was really retreating, retreating from Changchun Yidian.
Just as the command center was cheering, I was walking and thinking carefully, the map of the Northeast Plain in Changchun appeared in Ren Di's mind, and the location of the troops on both sides of the enemy and us immediately appeared, followed by the firepower of each unit and the full capacity of the troops.
"Send a telegram to Zhang Youhe and ask him to hold all the heavy firepower to me, remember that it is all that can be dragged away." Ren Di's new order cut through the noisy command center, and the entire command center settled instantly. Staff officer Wang Tao asked: "Sir, what are you doing?" Ren Di said: "I want to leave on the other side, can I let them go with peace of mind?" War tactics textbooks are taught a hundred times, but it is better to practice it once or ten times, or to fight it once. It is a pity to not hurry up and study it in such a situation.
Ren Di's mobilization order was issued, and the entire Republican army immediately mobilized. Two thousand sleds were organized into all rocket launchers, recoilless cannons, and mortars. As the sleds slide on the ice and snow, they were quickly mobilized. They were concentrated in the six divisions under Ren Di. For a time, the Republican army was on the front line of 150,000 units, and all the heavy firepower was concentrated in Ren Di. Although these artillery were too small in front of those who had actually shot one or two tons of artillery in World War II, the number was very considerable at this time. The fighter jets were fleeting, and the firepower was quickly distributed to various combat troops according to Ren Di's orders.
At this time, Hai Song's troops were also retreating with difficulty, and four armies marched in the snow. And three armies appeared from the Shenyang generation to carry out support.
In history, this is the first time Hai Song has made such a large-scale transition after his defeat. Moreover, this retreat did not maintain the image of a retreater, and Ren Di was not ruthless at all. He immediately ordered the troops of six divisions to carry out firepower farewell to the Hai Song army. This retreat almost turned into a retreat. Of course, a large number of Hai Song soldiers who threw away guns in the snow during the evacuation process seemed to be running for their lives.
Ren Di, who quickly concentrated his troops and firepower, first aimed at the two armies of Hai Song who were ordered to block. These two armies protected the flanks of Hai Song's retreating troops for fifty kilometers. However, these defenses were simple. Ren Di's troops quickly rotated on the ground and faced the defensive force of 60,000 people. The attack began.
As a result, it was attacked by the powerful Republican Army, and tens of thousands of troops launched a charge in a cluster of scattered soldiers and trapezoids. The rocket launchers in the sky dragged out smoke columns and had a momentum to cover the sky. In the formation of soldiers' charges, you can even see sleds dragging recoilless cannons. On this 50-kilometer front, there are almost twenty such dragging recoilless cannons in each kilometer. At least eighty, 60-caliber or 80-caliber heavy mortars were maintained in each kilometer of each kilometer. In addition, there were 20 12-combined 107 rocket launchers pulled by sledges as battlefield support. This firepower is the most unprecedented and huge firepower of the Republican Army since the war in the Northeast. With such a large number of firepowers being used uniformly, the natural effect is outstanding.
When the sled stopped, slightly turned to the artillery set up on the sled and fired quickly. The direct ballistics corresponded to the arc trajectory at high altitudes, and attacked the front. The soldiers were unstoppable in front of them, heavy machine guns were smashed, and the mortar position was immediately broken by fierce attacks. On the snow, the Republican Army showed unparalleled assault power. Explosive flames continued to sweep, and the infantry advanced to the resistance area. The soldiers of the Republican Army had only one goal at this time, which was running assault.
The Haisong Legion, which was defending on the spot, was broken through at the same time and was drilled through. Sixty thousand troops were cut into seven or eight sections on the spot. Sixty thousand troops were cut off on the Great Plain Front with a width of fifty kilometers. After the Republican vanguard assault troops completed the assault, the reserve troops followed quickly followed up and quickly covered the firepower cluster of sleds, that is, rocket launchers. In this way, the line cut by the assault was broken through and did not know other fronts. In the case, and both sides are Republican troops. These troops have a feeling of being surrounded by themselves. They collapsed one after another under the attack of rocket launchers and began to flee on a large scale. Within one hour, the two armies were completely disbanded. However, this unified and breakthrough operation only eliminated all the Haisong troops on the blocking front, and they were forced to shrink their troops. After all, the two legs of a man were not crawlers, and the horses were not as good as diesel engines running in the snow.
Even so, it was very terrifying. When the two armies in the west were dispersed by the Republican Army, Hai Song's retreating troops suddenly became panicked and as the deserters of the two blocking troops began to flee. If the Republican Army had a pursuit force at this time, these 80,000 people would not be able to escape back to Shenyang.
The news of the blocking force being vulnerable and directly collapsed. Kitara soon received it. His face turned blue and purple. Chang Shengchong patted it lightly, Kitara said: "It's okay. If you didn't retreat now, such a pursuit would probably completely destroy your front-line troops. Now it's just over."
