Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After a great battle on September 25, the Soviet army dispatched more than a dozen regiments of troops and paid the price of more than 10,000 casualties. They once occupied the beachhead on the south bank of the Selenge River, and victory was almost in sight.

    In the air battle, the Soviet army paid the price of almost annihilating one bomber division. It surrounded eight incomplete fighter regiments of the Northern Flying Group of the Independent Division Aviation Corps in the airspace of the Selenga River, and it was almost a scene of total annihilation.

    However, the five fighter regiments of Southern Flying Group Commander Le Yiqin suddenly appeared on the battlefield as a new force, changing the outcome of the battle. From the ground to the sky, they repelled the Soviet army's large-scale attack and saved Se Leng.  The Gehe defense line, the precarious front, was finally stabilized

    Commander Liu Hongzhang's timely counterattack pushed all the Soviet troops who had invaded the beachhead on the south bank back to the north bank. The sound of gunfire subsided, and the smoke that shrouded the world was blown away by the strong wind in northern Outer Mongolia, revealing the blue sky again.  Sky

    The water of the Selenge River was still roaring and rushing, but it could not take away the piles of corpses on both sides. Liu Hongzhang leaned tiredly on the wall of the shelter and said to Chief of Staff Liu Chenglin: "It's not easy. I finally got through it, at least until the early morning of tomorrow."  , the Soviet army was unable to attack again, Cheng Lin, each regiment counted the casualties, and then reported the battle situation to the division headquarters. I went to take a nap, and my whole body felt like it was falling apart. I was so damn tired! "

    After just a few steps, Liu Hongzhang stopped again and said to Liu Chenglin: "Chenglin, when you send the telegram to the division commander, don't forget to thank Commander Le of the Southern Flying Group. He has been a big help. Otherwise, maybe  You are collecting the corpse for me!"

    Le Yiqin piloted a fighter plane and circled at high altitude on the north bank of the Selenge River. He was waiting for the three regiments that were chasing the retreating Soviet fighter group to return to the formation. In the earphones, calls came from the two regiment commanders, "Commander,  We¡¯re waiting anyway, so instead of just sitting around like this, let¡¯s get involved in the Soviet position!¡±

    Le Yiqin burst into laughter. These two guys failed to fight against the Soviet fighter planes. They felt unbalanced. It was okay to help them to the end. "Each regiment can use squadrons as a unit to find targets and attack freely. Pay attention to the Soviet ground air defenses."  Firepower, don¡¯t be bitten, but remember one thing, after receiving the order to return, no matter how much you fight, return to the formation immediately!¡±

    General Kulykin's mind was in a mess. He was just lying on the camp bed to calm down his depressed mood when he heard the chaos outside. A staff officer rushed in and shouted in a slightly panic: "Comrade Commander, air defense immediately, independent division."  fighter jets to conduct air strikes on our positions!¡±

    As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of fighter jets and the "click, click, click!" of machine guns were heard in the sky. Several guards rushed in. Without any explanation, they picked up General Kulykin and ran outside the tent. Fortunately, he just ran away.  Less than twenty meters out, an Independent Division fighter jet passed by at a low altitude. Several strings of bullets were thrown down, and the tent was riddled with holes. There were clouds of blue smoke. If you look closely, you can see stains of blood. That was  The staff officers and radio personnel who were too late to evacuate became targets!

    General Kulykin sat under a rock, breathing heavily. Several guards formed a human wall around him. Comrade Commander was so angry that his eyes turned red. There were more than 300,000 troops and nearly 10,000 tents.  , why is it that the fighters of the Independent Division seem to have eyes and are specifically targeting me?

    Not surprisingly, General Kulykin¡¯s headquarters is the nerve center of the Transcaucasus Military Region troops. All orders are issued from here. Radio antennas and telephone lines are as dense as a spider web. Viewed from the air, the signals of the Southern Flying Group are eye-catching.  Fighter pilots are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. Can they still see something fishy?

    More than a hundred fighter jets fought fiercely on the north bank of the Selenge River within the Soviet army assembly area. When they saw a worthy target, they could not help but shoot a few rounds of bullets, and the Soviet army assembly area was filled with fireworks and chaos.  From time to time, oil tanks and ammunition trucks were exploded, with a loud "bang" and a cloud of smoke and fireballs. Le Yiqin was very happy to see it at high altitude.

    Because there is no fixed attack target, the Soviet ground anti-aircraft firepower cannot follow the pattern of independent division fighters. In addition, fighter jets are fast, light and agile, and come and go erratically, with strings of anti-aircraft machine gun bullets and rounds of anti-aircraft cannons.  Bullets, I can only chase butts and hit them, but none of them hit.

    After more than 30 minutes of rampage between the two fighter groups of the Southern Flying Group, the three fighter groups that were chasing the Soviet aircraft group returned. Le Yiqin laughed loudly and said: "Okay, let's stop as soon as we see fit, air formation, return."  !¡±

    Nearly four hundred independent division fighter jets formed a neat formation in the sky above the heads of the Soviet soldiers. They flew south with a "rumbling", leaving behind a messy Soviet assembly area filled with fireworks.

    Kulun, the Outer Mongolia Campaign Headquarters, Division Commander Tang Qiuli put down the phone and said to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe with a smile: "Le Yiqin and the others are returning, doing a good job., as soon as he took action, he rescued Meng Qingpeng and the others, and became a thug for Liu Hongzhang, who was in a tight war!  "

    Just as Zhao Yuhe was about to answer the call, Wang Jun, chief of staff of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army, walked in with a telegram and said with a heavy expression: "Commander, I just received a telegram from the Selenge River frontline headquarters, reporting to the troops.  casualties!¡±

    Tang Qiuli suppressed his smile and said in a calm tone: "What are the casualties of Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan's troops?"

    Wang Jun said: "Division commander, the battle that started at six o'clock in the morning today was extremely fierce. The first and second brigades of the directly affiliated corps repelled the Soviet army's six-hour non-stop attack, annihilating and capturing a total of 14,000 enemies.  More than a thousand people, but the troops also paid a huge price, with more than 11,000 casualties, of which more than 6,000 were killed, and the damage to weapons and equipment was also relatively serious."

    "Brigade Commander Liu and Brigadier Ouyang also said in the telegram that the division commander should rest assured that with the existing force, the task of blocking the Soviet army and the north bank of the Selenge River until 2600 o'clock on September 26, can be completed.  Even if the last person does not evacuate in advance, the Outer Mongolia border defense troops on the front line of Luanshi Mountain can also block the Soviet army for a day."

    Tang Qiuli raised his head, closed his eyes, and remained silent for a long time. A sad atmosphere filled the headquarters. After a long time, he whispered: "The ones we fought are all veterans. They are the essence of our independent division. The six  An hour of fighting crippled one of my main field brigade, an unprecedented loss, a bloody day! We have fought against the Japanese army for many years, and we have never had such losses." After saying this, I shed two lines of tears.

    Suddenly, Tang Qiuli opened his eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said to Zhao Yuhe: "Yuhe, order the outflanking troops on the left and right wings to march as fast as possible to the designated place, and clearly inform the brigade commanders.  , don¡¯t emphasize the difficulty for any reason. Even if you break your leg, you must reach the designated position before 6 o¡¯clock in the evening on September 26. The officers and soldiers of the first and second brigade are using their own  Life, come and buy them time!¡±

    "Order Battelle and his four tank brigades to reach the Checheerleg line north of Kulun before nine o'clock on the night of September 26 to block the Soviet army's march southward. East Point Chief of Staff Yang Ketian  The three mechanized infantry brigades under the command, the 3rd, 4th and 5th brigades of the Corps, arrived at the Checheerleg line at the same time, established positions in advance, and took on the task of frontal blocking. The troops were under the unified command of Yang Ketian and Battelle."

    "Order Liu Chun, the cavalry commander of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army, to lead the first cavalry brigade, Tong Batu's second cavalry brigade, and Bagena's sixth cavalry brigade to move to the south bank of the Selenge River to stand by. Li Changjiang's fifth cavalry brigade  The cavalry brigade returned to the area on the south bank of the Selenge River and was on standby. The cavalry troops avoided the front of the Soviet army and outflanked it. After the battle was launched, they blocked the retreat of the fleeing Soviet army."

    "In addition, a telegram was sent to Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan, ordering the 1st and 2nd brigades of the Directly Affiliated Corps to evacuate the front-line position of the Selenge River after ten o'clock on the night of September 26. The Outer Mongolia Border Guards were  The troops on the front line of Luanshi Mountain were evacuated at the same time, and their destination was the Bayan Ula area. The two troops formed the East Road Attack Group, with Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan serving as the deputy commanders respectively. The directly affiliated corps was advancing towards this area.  The 10th Brigade Fang Yuanshan Department is assigned to the group's combat sequence, and the brigade commander Fang Yuanshan also serves as the second deputy commander!"

    "The 8th, 9th, 11th, and 12th brigades directly under the corps formed the West Road Attack Group. Qiao Manshan, commander of the 8th Brigade, served as the commander. Xiao Jinshan, commander of the 9th Brigade, and Xiao Jinshan, commander of the 11th Brigade  Ren Zhaoquan and Chen Han, commander of the 12th Brigade, serve as deputy commanders."

    "At the same time, a combat pre-order was issued. The launch time of the campaign is exactly 5:30 in the morning on September 27. The purpose of the campaign is to encircle and annihilate the Soviet Transcaucasus Military District troops. The battlefield is preset from Hagen Gol to Baiyincha.  In the Qian area, add this sentence to the order given to each brigade. If that brigade delays time and affects the smooth implementation of the campaign, the brigade commander will come to the headquarters to take the blame! "

    Tang Qiuli issued an order, and Zhao Yuhe recorded it and repeated it. A large and carefully woven network was finally formed. For this campaign plan, the independent division's direct-affiliated corps, the independent division's Outer Mongolia Border Guards, and the independent division's aviation northern flight  The group paid a huge price

    Zhao Yuhe hurriedly went to the radio room to issue orders to the brigades. Tang Qiuli said to Wang Jun again: "Chief of Staff Wang, inform all personnel in the headquarters to be prepared and set out at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.  Arrive at Checherlege before the troops from the south and set up a battle headquarters!¡±

    Wang Jun stood at attention and said: "Yes, division commander, I will immediately inform all departments to prepare!" He hesitated and then said: "Division commander, I don't agree with the general headquarters arriving in Cheerleg before the troops. That is too dangerous!  Can I lead some of the staff first, and you and the headquarters will follow the troops? That would be safer!"
