    At around 7 o'clock in the night on September 27, the independent division aviation commander on the ground in Coulomb said, "Ding, ding, ding!" A red phone on the table rang rapidly. Colonel He Zhijun, chief of staff of the Southern Aviation Group, picked up the phone.  As soon as he heard the call, he hurriedly covered the receiver, turned around and said to Le Yiqin, who was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed and concentrating: "Commander, it's the division commander calling you from the front line!"

    Le Yiqin suddenly opened her eyes and said happily: "Zhijun, believe it or not, there must be a combat mission! I guess it's time to accept the division commander's deployment!"

    Le Yiqin took the call and said: "Commander, this is Le Yiqin. The aviation force is ready to attack at any time. Please give the order, commander!"

    Tang Qiuli laughed and said: "Le Yiqin, you are the roundworm in my belly. Yes, I have a mission. Yiqin, at exactly 5:30 in the morning on September 28, the troops will encircle the Soviet Transcaucasus."  The main force of the military region, your aviation force has three tasks. First, assist Liu Chun¡¯s cavalry troops and cut off the Soviet army¡¯s logistics supply lines from Irkutsk and Ulan-Ude to Hagen Gol and Baiyinchagan.¡±

    "Second, together with Liu Chun's cavalry unit, block the retreat route of the Soviet army. With only the cavalry, I am afraid it will be difficult to do this. In any case, the Soviet army cannot cross the Selenge River. This is my  Request, third, after the battle starts tomorrow morning, you dispatch all bombers to bomb the Soviet positions. I need to remind you that the Soviet Air Force will definitely come to the rescue. What awaits you will be fierce battles one after another.  , the ground air defense forces will cooperate with your actions! Let¡¯s see how the ground and air fight together!¡±

    Le Yiqin¡¯s tone became solemn.  He replied: "Commander, I assure you that during the battle, not a single bomb from a Soviet bomber will fall on our troops. After this battle, there will be no bombs in the air from the north of Kulun to Lake Baikal."  Saw traces of Soviet planes!"

    Although separated by hundreds of kilometers of telephone lines.  Tang Qiuli could also feel Le Yiqin's burning passion for fighting and surging blood. He didn't need too many gorgeous words. Two guarantees explained everything and his determination, "Okay. I'll wait.  !" Tang Qiuli said calmly and hung up the phone.

    What needs to be done has been done, and all that is left is to wait and proceed as planned.  After relaxing, Tang Qiuli felt exhausted all over, both mentally and physically. His upper and lower eyelids were twitching, so he leaned back on the chair.  I fell asleep hazy, hearing the roar of gunfire on the battlefield.  Echoing in the night, it became his hypnotic nocturne, "The iron horse fell into a dream on the ice river," which should be a true portrayal of the general on the battlefield.

    Seeing that the division commander was asleep, the staff officers who came in and out all walked softly. Occasionally, someone who didn't know it spoke a little louder, which would immediately attract a blank stare. Shan Hu walked in lightly and picked up a military item.  The windbreaker covered him, and with a wave of his hand, four special guards stood beside Tang Qiuli, their eyes as sharp as knives.

    Tang Qiuli did not sleep soundly. He was in a half-asleep and half-awake state. Dream after dream kept appearing in his mind, including the white mountains and black waters of his hometown, the green pines and birches, the vastness of the North China Plain, and the clearness of the southern Guangdong land.  Green, the tropical rain forests of Indochina, the mountains and rivers of the West Indian continent, the faces of parents, the smiling faces of wives, the milky sounds of daughters, living and lost partners, sacrificed subordinates, and, deep in memory, the yellow mud of the Northeast  An empty tomb by the river, scenes from a movie, flew through my mind.

    A few lines of graceful chanting seemed to float from the distant and deep night sky, echoing vaguely and clearly in my heart, "There is a beautiful woman in the north, left behind and independent. Once she looks at the charming city, she will look back again."  A charming country, I would rather not know a beautiful city or a beautiful country, it is hard to find a beautiful woman again!" The face that was deeply imprinted in my heart appeared in front of me again, smiled sweetly, and suddenly left. I stretched out my hand to hold it, but it always failed.  Can't catch it either.

    "Teacher! Teacher!" The soft shout woke up Tang Qiuli from the state of dreaming but not dreaming, half awake but not awake. He suddenly opened his eyes, and everything in the dream dissipated and he returned to reality.  , the "rumbling" sound of gunfire no longer reminded me that I was in a cruel battlefield. It was Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe who awakened me in my confusion.

    Tang Qiuli rubbed his eyes, as if wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, concealed a smile, and asked: "Yu He, what's going on?"

    Zhao Yuhe's surprised eyes flashed. He noticed something strange about his commander. When he came in, he seemed to hear his commander murmuring something. He wanted to see something from the faces of the four special guards.  Clues, but unfortunately, the special guard's face was as rigid as a stone, without any expression.

    Seeing the division commander asking himself, he quickly put away his curiosity and replied: "Division Commander, the main force of the Soviet Transcaucasus Military Region has entered the line from Hagen Gol to Baiyinchagan, and its forward force, the Ninth Army, is joining forces with  The previous Fifth Army stormed the frontal position of our army. The battle was very fierce, and the forward troopsThe Ninth Army troops seemed to have received a death order and attacked at all costs. The Ninth Army marched overnight. After arriving at Checheerleg, they immediately launched an attack without even taking a breath!  "

    Look at your watch, it's 4:37 in the morning on September 28th. In other words, the main force of the Soviet army has arrived for more than half an hour. Listening to the sound of gunfire outside, it has become more intensive and intense.  The battle was intense.

    Tang Qiuli smiled quietly and said: "Kuleijin is still very punctual, Yuhe, are there any casualties in the troops? Has Yang Ketian complained a lot? Have the troops on both wings deployed on time?"

    Zhao Yuhe replied: "Commander, the situation is like this. The casualties of the troops are not large. They have repelled several Soviet attacks and launched a front-line counterattack. Chief of Staff Yang just called and asked for instructions from the division.  Can we put in the firepower of another artillery brigade? The troops on both wings have been fully deployed and are waiting for the division commander's order! The commanders called the division headquarters and requested to attack in advance! "

    Tang Qiuli nodded and suddenly asked: "Yuhe, do you want to suggest to me that since the troop deployment is in place, why not launch an attack in advance?"

    Zhao Yuhe was startled, and then said embarrassedly: "To be honest with the teacher, I did have such an idea, but I didn't want to interfere with the teacher's determination! So I didn't bring it up."

    Tang Qiuli shook his head indifferently and said, "Yu He, it is normal to have such thoughts. Let me ask you, have all the Soviet troops entered our ambush circle?"

    Zhao Yuhe replied accurately: "Division commander, according to reports from various units, most of the Soviet troops have entered our ambush circle. Only one corps in the rear still has logistics and baggage. It is still outside the ambush circle. About five  There are about 60,000 people, and it will take about an hour to get them all in!¡±

    Tang Qiuli looked at Zhao Yuhe with a half-smile, and said: "There is a big difference between fighting an hour in advance and fighting according to the original plan. We cannot add additional burdens to the cavalry and aviation units that cut off the Soviet army's retreat.  ¡±

    Zhao Yu and Mo Ran, Tang Qiuli patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go outside and see the situation on the battlefield!" Then, he wrapped his windbreaker tightly and walked outside the tent.

    Shan Hu, who was sitting in the corner, caught up with him in a few steps. Without any explanation, he put a steel helmet on Tang Qiuli's head. He bared his teeth in a smile and waved his hand. Dozens of special guards rushed Tang Qiuli and waited for him.  Individuals gathered in the middle.

    As soon as they arrived outside, the sound of gunfire hit us clearly, and the loud "rumbling" sound continued to echo in the night sky. The evening wind was particularly strong, with a biting chill, and the clothes were fluttering. Tang Qiuli and others  Climbing a hill and raising the telescope, you can see a scene of a battlefield in full swing at night.

    The orange-red roads, as dense as locusts, passed each other in the dark night sky, intertwined into a series of fires, and the flames of cannon explosions rolled in the distance, as if the earth was burning.  The scream of the artillery piercing the air and the strange "hissing" sound came from far and near, exploding into a sea of ??fire. Judging from Tang Qiuli's experience, the Soviet army used at least two artillery divisions, four hundred  The remaining large-caliber artillery pieces were used in this attack.

    From Tang Qiuli's point of view, the battlefield is divided into two completely different parts. The Soviet artillery fire is violently bombarding the frontal blocking troops' positions, reflecting half of the night sky red, while the artillery fire of his own troops is obviously much weaker.  , the impact point could not even constitute a fire, the strong and weak were divided, no wonder Yang Ketian added the firepower of an artillery brigade, but it was blown up by the Soviet artillery.

    Tang Qiuli pointed at the Soviet artillery fire and said disdainfully: "Zheng Yong should be happy to see it. The Soviet artillery has exposed the position of the position. Once Zheng Yong fights back, it will be a fatal blow!"

    It seemed that the Soviet attack had completely gained the upper hand. The artillery fire was loud and the troops of the Independent Division were passively beaten. However, General Kulykin in the temporary headquarters was facing the enemy with a livid face.  The people on the phone kept getting angry, and they wanted to shoot this one, and dismiss that one and investigate that one. Naturally, the ones who got scolded the most were Major General Kuryakov, the commander of the Fifth Army, and Aslano, the commander of the Ninth Army.  Husband Major General.

    General Kulykin believed that with the strength of two mechanized corps plus two tank brigades, the second-rate troops of the independent division attacking and defending, the second line of blocking defense of the Outer Mongolia Border Guards, were actually repelled one after another. If the Fifth Army were to  Counting from the beginning of the attack, they have been fighting for more than ten hours, but they have not been able to advance an inch. The army of more than 200,000 people is blocked at the front line of Checheerleg.

    As the follow-up troops continue to push forward, the density of the troops will become larger and larger. If bombers from the Independent Division Aviation Air Force get wind of it after dawn and drop a heavy bomb, it will kill dozens or hundreds of soldiers.  This common sense and low-level mistake must not be made by oneself.

    Therefore, General Kulykin issued a death order to the two army commanders.??Before 5:30 in the morning, we must break through the second blocking line of the independent division troops and open the passage to Cullen. Otherwise, come and see us!
