    Hearing what the division commander said, Zhao Yuhe also smiled, "Yes, division commander, I've been worrying too much. Could it be that you haven't slept well for a few days and nights now that you have some free time? Go and have a rest. I'll be watching from the headquarters."  OK!" He suggested with a smile.

    I'm really sleepy. I didn't get a good rest last night. My brain was always running at a high speed. I was even more tired than if I didn't sleep. But now, it's not the time to rest assured. "Yuhe, do you think I have the chance to sleep well, Cullen?"  Don't pay attention to the Soviet troops in the direction within two or three days. The Japanese will start to fight back, and the Far East will soon become lively. Contact Deputy Commander Liu and ask about the situation in the Far East!" Tang Qiuli said with a wry smile.

    At around nine o'clock in the morning, the leading troops of the Soviet 37th Group Army, which had been fleeing all the way north, finally saw the shadow of the small town Gurbansai Khan on the vast grassland. If they occupied this place, they could at least use the terrain to block the rear.  The independent division troops were chasing after him as fast as they could and vomiting blood. However, before the Soviet commander could breathe a sigh of relief, countless fortifications appeared out of thin air on the grassland in front of him. From the fortifications, countless black holes of gun muzzles emerged.

    Immediately, a hail of bullets as dense as locusts poured over them, and the Soviet soldiers who were still running forward dizzy and trying to occupy Gurbansai Khan had blood splatters on their bodies and fell to the ground in pieces.  Troops from the three brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, in the first round of shooting, beat up the leading Soviet troops, leaving them stunned and suffering heavy casualties.

    "It's over - dead end!" Lieutenant General Hippolyv, commander of the 37th Soviet Army Group, who received the report, screamed miserably, his face ashen and ugly, "Who can tell me when the troops of the Independent Division will  How did those Chinese soldiers get to the front with such complete fortifications built in Gurbansai Khan?" he asked the staff at the headquarters.  roared loudly.

    The staff officer was unable to answer Comrade Commander's question. Originally, the group army's retreat was not sloppy at all. It maintained a certain distance from the independent division's pursuit troops. According to Comrade Commander's estimation, it would be impossible to catch up before reaching Cullen.  independent division troops.  They will not catch up with the main force of the group army. When they reach the vicinity of Cullen, there is no need to worry. The 35th Group Army has already dispatched the leading force of an army.  Heading to Delenn.

    However, Gurbansaihan is still dozens of kilometers away from Delenn.  Troops of independent divisions.  A blocking line has been established to block the only way to evacuate to Kulun. All Soviet officers, including Lieutenant General Hippolyv, are aware that if the blocking line of the Independent Division troops at Gurbansai Khan cannot be broken through,  .  The 37th Group Army must all be finished here and return to Cullen, don¡¯t even think about it!

    Wait until Lieutenant General Hippolyv¡¯s mood calms down a little.  A senior staff officer said cautiously: "Comrade Commander, we are not in a desperate situation with no way out yet. The independent division troops blocking us in Gurbansaihan will not have too many troops. Just now, I called to inquire  The vanguard commander, when they were blocked, found that the independent division troops did not have heavy weapons such as large-caliber artillery. "

    "This shows that the troops of the Independent Division have been pursuing continuously and their heavy equipment has fallen behind. Our strength is far greater than theirs. With the infantry and light weapons, we cannot push us into a desperate situation. Now, the most dangerous thing is not in the  Gurbansai Khan blocked our independent division troops, but the independent division troops were chasing after us. More than a thousand tanks were enough to crush any of our blocking actions. Time is running out. Comrade Commander, please decide on the troop's next move as soon as possible.  Take one step!¡±

    Lieutenant General Hippolyv also recovered and was annoyed by his gaffe just now, "What's wrong with me? Ever since the troops started to retreat after being hit by the artillery of the Independent Division, they behaved at a loss and were afraid of being beaten.  Breaking your nerve?" Although this was indeed the case, Lieutenant General Hippolyv would never admit it.

    Looking at the anxious officers who were full of expectations, Lieutenant General Hippolyv tried his best to calm down his mind. He couldn't afford to delay it. If he panicked because of the intercepting independent division troops, he would be in ancient times.  Erban Saihan lingered for two or three hours, waiting for the pursuers of the Independent Division to catch up. It was impossible to leave, and everything was really over!

    Lieutenant General Hippolyv was convinced that the tanks of the Independent Division, which had been pursued all the way and crushed countless blocking lines, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Independent Division, could tear the remaining 10,000 soldiers to pieces, "Order  , the Fifteenth Army, the vanguard force, breaks through the enemy's blockade and opens Gurbansai Khan's passage at any cost. If the Fifteenth Army suffers heavy casualties and loses its ability to attack, the Fourteenth Army will take over the attack!" He bit!  Ya said.

    There is no other way to break the blockade of the independent division troops, but to use human lives to pile them up. As long as they can return to Kulun safely and cripple the troops, they can still recover. What the Soviet Union lacks most is manpower. Look around at the officers around you.  , as well as the senior officers of the 15th Army and the 14th Army who rushed over after receiving the urgent order, "These people also have to go to the battlefield and use their imagination.To the effect!  "Lieutenant General Hippolyv thought to himself.

    Before letting these people die, they must establish their belief in sacrificing their lives for Comrade Stalin. Lieutenant General Hippolyv's tone was a bit tragic, but more contagious, "Comrades, the moment to decide our life and death has come. Break through the enemy forces in front of us."  If we block the attack, we can rendezvous with the corresponding 35th Army troops!"

    "In order to achieve this goal, we must not be afraid of any casualties. Party members and league members must fight on the front line of the charge, form death squads, bravely face the enemy's bullets, and open channels for the troops. All political commissars at all levels  , immediately go down to the assault troops and explain clearly to the soldiers why we are doing this. Well, comrades, the Soviets will remember our heroic deeds. Fight for Comrade Stalin!"

    Lieutenant General Hippolyv was very eloquent and passionate, and his impassioned incitement made the emotions of these Soviet officers boil. It seemed that Comrade Stalin was watching from the big window of the Kremlin.  With his brave actions, everyone stood at attention and saluted, with faces full of tragedy and excitement, turned around and left, fighting for Comrade Stalin!

    "They are all brave warriors. Maybe, many of them will never come back! No, maybe all of them!" The corners of Lieutenant General Hippolyv's eyes were a little moist. He knew very well that the people who broke through the independent division troops  Blocking was easier said than done. From the northern part of Saiyinshanda to Gurbansaihan, he pursued tirelessly and sleeplessly for two days and two nights. The commander of the independent division was determined to kill the three  Kill the Seventeenth Army.

    If you have the opportunity to block yourself, how can you easily break out of it?  Regardless of whether it was a death squad or a party member charging, there were just countless more corpses. Lieutenant General Hippolyv's heart flashed with a trace of intolerance, but he couldn't bear it and was immediately forcibly expelled. When he heard, retreat  When the road was blocked, he had not thought that if he took the path of General Kulykin, the former commander of the Transcaucasus Military Region, and surrendered to the Chinese, he would save the lives of 10,000 soldiers and himself.

    But the most secret thoughts in his heart flashed past like lightning. The way Comrade Stalin and the Cheka agency treated the relatives of surrendered Soviet officers and soldiers made Lieutenant General Hippolyv shudder and tremble from the bottom of his heart.  Fear, lessons learned from the past, I have heard and witnessed a lot about the fate of the relatives of the surrendered officers in the Transcaucasus Military Region. Do I still dare to follow their path?

    The answer is very certain, I dare not and cannot. Therefore, even if the 37th Army is exhausted in Gurbansai Khan and is captured by the Chinese or killed by Chinese soldiers and left dead in the wilderness, we must continue to fight.  The whole army was annihilated and captured, and surrendering were two different issues. I and all the officers and soldiers of the 37th Army tried their best. God forbid, it was not a crime of war. I believe Comrade Stalin would not embarrass his relatives too much.  Bar?

    The well-trained Soviet troops moved quickly. After the vanguard suffered an unexpected blow, the death squads were quickly organized. It was said that the Japanese army's hand-to-hand charge was terrifying and the Soviet soldiers, who were risking their lives, started to fight.  Charge with crazy energy, no need to worry about the Japanese soldiers!

    He probably felt that when he was in a desperate situation with death on either side, he might as well give it a try and maybe he could find a way out. It was more likely that Commander Hippolyv's encouragement gave these Soviets who were rushing ahead a chance.  The courage of the members of the military party to sacrifice for Comrade Stalin was enough. More than 10,000 tall Soviet soldiers lined up in skirmish lines, raised their submachine guns and rifles, and walked across the grassland covered with dry grass, heading towards  Gurbansai Khan rushed towards him, shouting "Ula!" in Russian, which shook the earth and the earth, and his momentum was astonishing!

    The blocking positions of the three brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps of the Independent Division were less than a thousand meters away. There was total silence on the Independent Division position, and there was no sound of retaliatory gunfire. It almost made these charging Soviet soldiers think that they had just been attacked.  That bullet was an illusion.

    For this kind of group charge of more than ten thousand people, in the eyes of the veteran field corps soldiers of the independent division, it is nothing. How many times have you seen the little devil play this trick? How many times have you seen it?  , probably except for the lookout posts monitoring the enemy, the other soldiers would not even look at them.

    However, the Outer Mongolia Field Corps is a newly formed unit. Except for the four infantry brigades among them, which participated in the Selenge River Blockade, the rest of the units have not even participated in a brigade-level battle.  Unfortunately, the four brigades that smelled the smoke were not within the scope of the blocking force.

    Looking at the tall Soviet soldiers, with bursts of dust rising under their feet, they rushed up like wild bulls. The soldiers of the three infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps chased them all the way from the northern part of Saiyinshanda to Gurbansai Khan.  , the battle was going smoothly and seemed to be full of momentum, but the Soviet army was eager to escape and did not engage in a head-on confrontation at all. In addition, they pursued it from both wings in parallel, forcing the Soviet army to run away and fight face to face.I have never experienced positional blocking combat.
