Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At the Selenge River Blocking Line Headquarters of the Outer Mongolian Border Guards, in a battlefield environment with heavy artillery fire and deafening killing sounds, preparations for an operation were being carried out nervously. Medical equipment was constantly being transported, and after the doctor's rescue,  , Sun Zhenbang has woken up.

    Listening to the continuous explosions of artillery shells from outside and the roar passing overhead, Sun Zhenbang asked Lieutenant Colonel Meng Chaoxu, the chief of the combat section, in a weak voice: "Chaoxu, our artillery has started bombarding the second echelon of the Soviet army. What's the effect?"  How about it?"

    Meng Chaoxu stared at the north bank of the river intently, not daring to look back, and replied: "Commander, you can just do the surgery with peace of mind. The artillery bombardment has a very good effect. It has disrupted the assembly of the second echelon of the Soviet army. Those who launched the charge into the water  The boat was also sunk by our cannonballs!"

    Sun Zhenbang asked again: "The frontline troops, have they repelled the Soviet attack? How is the fighting situation? Why can't I hear that the gunfire is not so intensive?"

    Meng Zhaoxu quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and replied: "I just received a call. All units have successfully blocked the breach and suppressed the Soviet attack!"

    The middle-aged military doctor who was in charge of the operation came to Meng Zhaoxu's side and quietly tugged on his shirt. The two quickly exchanged glances. The military doctor nodded and the operation was about to begin. Sun Zhenbang felt his head was heavy and he couldn't help it for a while.  Suppressed sleepiness came over him, and his eyelids seemed as heavy as huge boulders. He said angrily in a barely audible voice: "You bastard, you gave me anesthesia. What bastard's idea was it?" Immediately, he fell into  In the boundless darkness.

    Meng Zhaoxu left the observation hole, hurried to the telecommunications room, and said to the operator: "Send the report, division commander, my Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army Serenge River Frontline Command Lieutenant Colonel Meng Zhaoxu, Chief of Operations Section. I am reporting an emergency to you, Su  The Soviet army launched its second attack on our position at about 9:30 this morning. The battle was fierce. The Soviet army used more than 500 tanks to suppress and destroy the firepower points of our forward position with tank fire. "

    "At about ten o'clock, the fighting became more intense. The first wave of Soviet attacks had already engaged in hand-to-hand combat with our soldiers on the forward positions. The second offensive echelon of the Soviets was also gathering, but was blocked by us.  During the battle, Commander Sun was seriously injured and was in a coma. It was unclear when he would wake up. I took over the command. At present, the battle was still fierce and the Soviet army was in a stalemate.  The tanks are a great threat to our forward positions. Please ask the division commander to send air fire support!¡±

    The situation on the battlefield was indeed as described by Meng Zhaoxu. The Soviet troops in the first attack wave were unable to expand their breakthrough.  The troops of the Outer Mongolia Border Guards were unable to completely drive out the Soviet troops. Soldiers from both sides fought fiercely at every breakthrough. There were shouts and explosions of grenades everywhere, and the position was filled with smoke mixed with gunpowder.  The smell of blood.

    Major General Wang Qingshan, commander of the 1st Infantry Brigade, had long led the soldiers of the guard company into the fight. His position was the position of the 2nd Regiment. This was the most prominent point in the 1st Brigade's arc-shaped defense line.  In front of the position, there is a gentle slope. Going down the gentle slope, there is a long river beach. The river water has just reached the calf, which is most suitable for landing on the beach. The defenders do not have dangerous terrain like the positions defended by other troops.  usable.

    Therefore, the Soviet army used the Second Regiment's position as one of several major breakthrough points and invested three regiments of troops. Artillery fire also repeatedly bombarded the position several times. As soon as the battle began, the Second Regiment and the First Battalion endured a heavy toll.  The position under great pressure was the first to be broken through by the Soviet army. When Wang Qingshan led the brigade guard company to arrive, about two battalions of Soviet soldiers had already invaded the position and started hand-to-hand combat with the soldiers. Behind them, there were  Soviet soldiers kept coming.

    Just as Sun Zhenbang was worried, under the fierce attack of the Soviet army, the soldiers of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army who had not experienced battle formations were first overwhelmed by the Soviet soldiers in terms of momentum. Looking at their comrades who were fighting alongside them just now,  A bullet flew and fell beside him, turning into a corpse dripping with blood. The blood spattered on his face. The smell of blood did not stimulate the bloody nature hidden in their hearts, but instead aroused the cowardice in their hearts.

    Many timid soldiers had already turned around and ran to the rear positions. Although the squad and platoon leaders tried their best to regain their inner courage, they could not face Soviet soldiers twice their size.  Their heroic behavior could not stop the soldiers from retreating, and their figures were soon submerged among the Soviet soldiers.

    There was a platoon leader who was stabbed by three bayonets. He struggled to activate the grenade on his body and died together with several Soviet soldiers. Wang Qingshan's eyes were burning and he shouted "Kill!" He was the first to rush forward, and then he  , more than 150 men from the guard company rushed towards the swarming Soviet soldiers with blood-red eyes.

    Wang Qingshan¡¯s guard company is the predecessor of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army. HuangThe old foundation of the troops of the ??River Guard Defense Command is the elites carefully selected from the entire brigade. They have fought in the Taihang Mountains, North China, and the Beijing-Tianjin Corridor, and then followed the troops from the Chahar Grassland to Outer Mongolia.  Having experienced countless battles and seeing brave Japanese soldiers, I know how such a battle should be fought.

    Seeing the brigade commander being the first to rush forward, the soldiers immediately formed groups of three, passed by the retreating battalion of soldiers, and raised their submachine guns. Immediately, there was a loud sound like a heavy rain hitting the leaves, one hundred and fifty  Multiple submachine guns spurted out tongues of fire, and dense rain of bullets hit the Soviet soldiers who were fighting happily. One magazine was empty, and while the magazine was being replaced, another submachine gun took up the firepower.

    With just a face-to-face meeting, the Soviet soldiers who rushed up turned into bloody corpses and rolled down the slope. Wang Qingshan emptied a magazine and before he could change it, a stout Soviet soldier  The soldier, holding a rifle with a bayonet, lunged and stabbed him viciously in the chest.

    The guard who was seven or eight meters behind Wang Qingshan had no time to rescue him and shouted anxiously: "Brigade commander, hide quickly!"

    Wang Qingshan is the kind of person who is filled with fighting passion when he smells the smell of blood. He does not panic. He ducks away from the bayonet and flicks the submachine gun in his hand. The wooden butt of the gun is smashed hard.  On the head of the Soviet soldier, not only did the helmet fly away, but half of his cheek bones were also shattered. Hot blood sprayed all over Wang Qingshan's head and face.

    The Soviet soldier screamed and shook a few times, but did not fall. His blue-grey eyes widened and he covered his cheeks, looking at him in fear. Wang Qingshan replaced the magazine and turned the gun over, "Click, click, click."  "A short burst of fire and several rounds of bullets poured into the back of the Soviet soldier. The huge impact of the bullets knocked him to the ground and turned him into a corpse.

    Under the leadership of the brigade commander, the guard company launched a fierce counterattack, forcing the two battalions of Soviet soldiers to retreat and break out of their positions. Wang Qingshan turned his head and saw a heavy machine gun and two  The shooter lay bloody and bloody in the trench, with a long bullet chain hanging underneath.

    Wang Qingshan shouted to the two personal guards: "Press the bullet!" Then he threw himself on the heavy machine gun, gritted his teeth, and pulled the trigger fiercely, "Click!" "Click!" A string of bullets.  , sweeping towards the Soviet soldiers who were still charging up along the slope. At such a close distance, a heavy machine gun could block the breach. The bullets knocked the Soviet soldiers backwards, and the bodies rolled down the slope.  Enter the Serenge River.

    The news that the brigade commander came to the front line in person and brought the guard company to support the 1st Battalion position soon spread to all the positions of the 3rd Regiment. The impact on the morale of the soldiers and the encouragement to the military morale were huge. Those soldiers who kept retreating  , raised their guns again, and rushed to the position again. The troops of the first brigade launched counterattacks one after another, gradually pushing the Soviet soldiers out of their positions and compressing them on the river beach.

    Although the position of the 1st Brigade was shaky, it was held and several breaches were recaptured. However, the frontier Outer Mongolia Border Guard troops were unable to push back the Soviet troops who had already gained a foothold on the beach.  Going to the north bank, the battle is still in a stalemate. The Outer Mongolian border guard's defense line has not yet lifted the danger. The biggest threat is the Soviet tanks on the other side.

    Wang Qingshan was fighting happily. A heavy machine gun exerted great power in his hands. It not only blocked the breakthrough, but also provided fire support to the nearby positions from time to time. Suddenly, an instinctive  The feeling made him drop the heavy machine gun and shouted to the two guards: "Leave quickly!" After shouting, he quickly rushed to a corner of the trench, followed by the two guard battalions.

    On Selenge and on the north bank, a Soviet tank slowly rotated its turret. There was a loud "boom", a stream of flames erupted from the muzzle, and a shell roared in. The soil splashed and shrapnel flew across.  The heavy machine gun exploded into the air, and the bodies of several nearby soldiers were torn apart by shrapnel.

    Wang Qingshan poked his head out of the soil, wiped a few smears on his face, and cursed: "Lao Maozi's tank soldiers are not bad, and they can shoot quite accurately. Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise, I have to give an account."  Here! You want my life, but I don¡¯t want to give it to you!¡±

    The two guards also got up, shook off the dirt from their bodies, and asked: "Brigade commander, how did you know that the Soviet tanks were going to fire?"

    Wang Qingshan spat out the dirt in his mouth and simply said, "Intuition! Intuition developed on the battlefield!" Of course, it is most likely that he is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He has been trained in the rain of bullets.  An instinctive reaction that comes out, and this instinct can save one's life.

    When the second offensive echelon of the Soviet army assembled on the north bank of the Selenge River, it was shelled by the artillery of the Outer Mongolia Border Guards, which completely disrupted the rhythm of the Soviet army's attack. However, the two artillery brigades also paid heavy losses.The price of ? can be judged from the gradually sparse sound of artillery.

    With the loss of artillery support, facing the third wave of Soviet attacks, the Outer Mongolia Border Guard¡¯s position was in danger!
