    The Soviet anti-aircraft firepower was fast and effective. Under the influence of ground anti-aircraft firepower, the bombers had to climb to a higher altitude, and the bombing accuracy of the Soviet army was greatly reduced. Moreover, when they were caught off guard, the bombers had to climb to a higher altitude.  More than a dozen bombers were shot and wounded, and four of them flew in the direction of Cullen, dragging thick smoke. The experienced pilots knew that the fate of these four bombers crashing was unavoidable.

    Fortunately, the parachuting crew members were in an area controlled by Ziji troops. Their lives were in danger. Colonel Meng Qingpeng, the commander of the Outer Mongolia cruise area of ??the Northern Aviation Group, was an old pilot who had participated in the mission with Le Yiqin and Liu Cuigang.  The Border Air Defense War, the Battle of Recovering North China, the Battle of Pingjin, the Niuxin Mountain ambush of the Kwantung Army in Western Liaoning, the Battle of the Southward Regiment of the Kwantung Army, and the Battle of Conquering Jinzhou. He is an aerial veteran who has been active in the northern sky. ""Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!"

    At that time, Meng Qingpeng served as the commander of the 1st Fighter Regiment of the Aviation Force. He had repeatedly commanded mixed fleets to bomb the Japanese army. In his mind, he made an intuitive comparison between the air defense firepower of the Soviet army and the Japanese army. Compared with the Soviet air defense  In terms of capabilities, the Japanese army is almost like an undefended army. In other words, it does not have any decent anti-aircraft firepower at all. Most of them use ground offensive weapons to temporarily serve as anti-aircraft firepower. This should be related to the strength of the opponents faced by the two ** teams.

    It was getting late, and the Soviet air defense firepower was very fierce. Moreover, the division commander's task for the Outer Mongolia patrol area was to cover the Tong Batu Brigade and Li Changjiang Brigade's safe evacuation from Irkutsk and Ulan-Ude to avoid the Soviet army.  The pursuit and the bombing just now are extra gains for yijing. Meng Qingpeng is not a war-loving commander.

    After observing the situation on the ground, Meng Qingpeng ordered: "Bomber formation returns immediately, fighter formation. Follow me, show the color of the Soviet ground anti-aircraft firepower, Cullen ground air control, immediately contact the 2nd and 5th brigades,  Ask the two departments whether to evacuate to a safe area."

    More than a hundred fighter jets roared down from high altitude. In the dim dusk, the little sparks emerging from the ground were the best targets, the Soviet ground anti-aircraft firepower.  For a bomber, it is a huge w¨¥ixi¨¦, but for a fast, light fighter, the degree of w¨¥ixi¨¦ is extremely low.

    A group of fighter jets in the Outer Mongolia cruising area flew over the Soviet army.  He nimbly shuttled through the fire net, picking up bullets one after another.  Pour on the head of the Soviet anti-aircraft firepower group.  Although there were spectacular scenes of fireworks, flying flames and loud noises when a heavy aerial bomb exploded, the Soviet soldiers suffered a lot from the pouring machine gun bullets and were beaten to the point where they were knocked off their feet.

    More than twenty minutes later.  Meng Qingpeng issued the order for the entire fighter group to return without hesitation, and waited for a fighter division from the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region Air Force to arrive in the Irkutsk airspace.  The fighter jets of the ** Division had long since disappeared. All the Soviet pilots saw were burning trucks, artillery, and tanks on the ground, as well as the corpses of Soviet soldiers and the wounded wailing in pain everywhere.  .

    Major General Sergeyev, the commander of the Third Army, had a big argument over the ground-to-air intercom with the commander of the fighter division who came to support him. It is no wonder that Commander Sergeyev lost his temper and asked for air support.  Up to now, more than three hours have passed. According to the flying speed of Soviet fighter jets, they can reach the combat airspace dozens of minutes earlier. At that time, it was the Soviet Union's fighter group that was raging in the sky above Ziji.  .

    The commander of the Soviet fighter division who came to provide air support was also very angry. His division had been waiting on the runway for a long time. With just one order, more than 200 fighter jets could take off.  But they didn't come, so Ziji and more than 200 pilots sat in the cabin for more than an hour, which was an extremely torturous hour.

    Finally, Rongyi desperately rushed to the Irkutsk airspace, but was met with a lot of complaints and accusations. The angry fighter division commander couldn't help but yelled: "That's enough, Comrade Commander, ruguo, do you think we can support you?"  Chi, you can report to the military district that we delayed the fighter plane. That is your right. I'm sorry, because the enemy aircraft fleet has to withdraw from the battlefield, and my troops are returning. Goodbye! "

    After saying that, the Air Force Division Commander, who was also a hot-tempered Air Force Division Commander, cut off the contact without politeness. On the ground, Commander Sergeyev, whose face was livid with anger, slammed the phone down and looked at the dusk.  The battlefield was full of messes, and the breath was stuck in the chest. This day was not a smooth one for Ziji. Although Irkutsk was captured without a battle, the Chinese cavalry unit that was supposed to be surrounded escaped.  , and was severely beaten by Chinese bombers and fighter jets.

    From the perspective of the purpose of the campaign, the Third Army was victorious. According to the expected purpose, it occupied the city of Irkutsk. However, from the perspective of combat, the Third Army suffered a minor defeat.A small loss, not only did I kill a Chinese soldier, Ziji suffered losses, but also, after being coerced by the fanatical Nikolayevsky, Commander Sergeyev looked at the grasslands of Outer Mongolia.  , in the darkening night, he weakly ordered: "The military headquarters enters the city!"

    Suddenly, he remembered that the Chinese planes, with such indiscriminate bombing, were going to chase the retreating Chinese cavalry armored brigade. No matter what the losses were, they must not kill that Nicholas.  Otherwise, he would not be able to explain to his superiors. Commander Sergeyev ordered the staff around him, "Immediately contact Comrade Nikolay Gorsky, commander of the armored brigade, and ask about the brigade's current status and losses?"  "

    After a while, I got a reply, "Comrade Commander, our armored brigade is currently located in Weizhi, more than fifty kilometers due south of Irkutsk, and is searching for traces of the retreat of the Chinese cavalry troops. We are pursuing them. The troops are m¨¦iyou.  Any losses! Please report any new situation at any time, Brigadier and Political Commissar Colonel Nikolay Gorsky.¡±

    Major General Sergeyev was speechless. He could only shake his head with a wry smile and thought to himself: "What the hell, almost all the units of the Third Army were bombed by the ** Division Air Force to varying degrees. Why?  That guy doesn't care about anything. He shouldn't. An armored brigade is no small target. How can he lose everything?"

    Nikolagorski was indeed lucky. He commanded the armored brigade to pursue Shihou southward, and the bomber group in the Outer Mongolia cruising area returned from Yijing. Meng Qingpeng's fighter group, because of the report from the ground radar station, there were a large number of Soviet troops.  The fighter jets were rushing to the Irkutsk airspace. He didn't want to fight. It was such a small target and he didn't want to risk being entangled by the Soviet fighter jets that were catching up.

    Moreover, the fighter group did not have much fuel and ammunition left, and it was not enough to support an air battle. By some strange combination of circumstances, Nikolagorski's armored brigade escaped, unaware that death had passed by.  Brigadier Nikolaysky put down his telescope with high spirits and ordered: "The troops will advance immediately and camp in two hours. Tell the soldiers not to be afraid of fatigue. We are great Soviet Red Army soldiers and have the ability to defeat all enemies."  Have confidence and courage, turn on the headlights of all armored vehicles, and search forward!¡±

    The brigade chief of staff and several battalion commanders beside him looked at each other, feeling helpless at the blind command of the brigade commander and political commissar. In the dark night, turning on the headlights of all armored vehicles was tantamount to  The retreating Chinese cavalry troops sent a signal that we are pursuing you. Moreover, the terrain is unknown and the enemy's situation is unknown. So we are so grand, fearing that the enemy will pursue us unknowingly. What if we are ambushed?

    But looking at Comrade Brigade Commander's posture, I couldn't hear who it was that he must have said. A bad Comrade Commander, who had a background as a political cadre, was labeled as being afraid of the enemy and having a cowardice mentality on a certain unlucky person.  A big hat is coming to your doorstep by Cheka agents. Which one can handle it?

    In the dark night, all the vehicles of the Soviet armored brigade turned on their headlights and formed a column on the grassland dirt road, like a snake that snaked and swam due south.

    About seventy kilometers due south of Irkutsk, in a low and sparse forest, the troops of the Second Cavalry Brigade were resting here, running non-stop for dozens of kilometers, and Xiao was growing on horseback.  The Mongolian men, who were large enough to eat, drink and sleep on horseback, were also tired of men and horses. After receiving the order to rest in place, the soldiers looked at the sweaty horses and felt distressed.

    Ignoring the consequences, he first took off the saddle and all the weights from the horse, then carefully wiped the sweat of the war horse, and led him to the dif¨¡ng with rich pasture. While looking at his beloved war horse, chewing the grass sweetly, he  They sat together in twos and threes, took out water bottles and dry food, filled their stomachs, and whispered from time to time about the thrilling retreat today.

    The brigade commander, Major General Tong Batu, sat alone in front of a small tree, motionless, like a sculpture, staring in the direction of Irkutsk with blood-red eyes. Next to him were the dry food and water bottles brought by the guards.  , but he had no appetite, and his heart was burning with pain.

    Originally, the retreat of the Second Brigade should have been a near miss. The Soviet encirclement had not yet been formed. A battalion serving as the vanguard of the retreat was closely monitoring the Soviet actions on both sides of the encirclement that the Soviets were about to close.  The width of the cavalry was continuously reported to the brigade headquarters. The second brigade withdrew from the shihou in Irkutsk. According to Tong Batu's calculations, the cavalry would reach the unencircled opening in less than thirty minutes at full speed.

    The opening of more than 20 kilometers wide was enough for the Second Brigade to safely withdraw from the Soviet encirclement. More than 5,000 troops could disappear deep into the vast steppes of Outer Mongolia in less than half an hour, waiting for Lao Maozi.  Shihou, who had completely formed a circle, could only see the gradually dissipating dust, but an accident happened?.
