Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Nani? Lu Huanyan's gunman took down the opponent's artillery regiment with just one company?!" Taro Utsunomiya didn't believe his ears, and Jiro Oba stepped forward angrily and grabbed it from the confidential staff officer's hand.  After reading the draft of the telegram, Shunroku Hata, the Southwest Front Army and Chief of Staff of the Ukrainian Campaign, relaxed his frown. Obviously, it was precisely because the troops in charge of the roundabout of the Chinese Communist Party took away the enemy's artillery on the other side.  , which created the conditions for Ezaki Masako's team to defeat the main force of the Ukrainians in a hard battle.

    "I know Lu Huanyan. He doesn't like to talk empty words. The two main battalions of his armored regiment have arrived at the outskirts of Kharkov along the forest road, blocking the way for Ukrainians to retreat from the forest to Kharkov.  , but the armored forces are quite tired at the moment. They are mainly monitoring the enemy and waiting for reinforcements from Muto-kun's 23rd Infantry Brigade before launching the offensive. I originally thought that all his troops had gone south, but Colonel Lu did not give up.  The roundabout detachment to take down the Ukrainian artillery positions really made a contribution to our center army this time! Chapter of the novel!

    Shunroku Hata's words were unbiased. In fact, although he was extremely surprised that a Chinese company of Lu Huanyan could actually attack the Ukrainian troops on the right bank of the Kharkov River, which numbered at least 3,000 people, but considering that the coalition air force was along the  Indiscriminate bombings were launched three times on both sides of the Kharkov River. It is extremely possible that the frightened artillery, engineers and logistics personnel of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division would scatter under the attack of the Chinese troops. It must be said,  The luck and courage of this circuitous team are both secretly admirable and enviable.  novel chapter

    "Baga, why didn't Izaki Masato report it?! I think his artillery unit must have been suppressed by the superior artillery force of the Ukrainians on the other side of the Kharkov River. That's why the battle was fought so so hesitantly.  , I also wonder that the artillery of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division is at least 6 times that of the 18th Infantry Regiment, and it can be said that Masaki Ezaki won the battle. It seems that the Chinese ***, with the cooperation of the air force, defeated the Ukrainians.  Artillery is also a factor!" Oba Erlang shouted with an embarrassed expression.

    "Jun Oba, there is no need to delve too deeply into this. After all, the Eizaki Masagano Regiment is facing the main force of the three infantry regiments of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division with superior strength, while the Chinese roundabout troops are facing others after swimming across the river.  How can the logistics-qualified artillery force with the firepower density of the squadron and platoon of the Chinese Army be able to deal with it? Not to mention the support of the coalition air force in the sky! Send my order to the Southwest Front Headquarters and Ukrainian Campaign Commander.  In the name of the headquarters, we report the victory to Samara and also announce the awards to the Chief Qizi Zhenggang Regiment and the Chinese Lu Huanyan Armored Regiment!¡±

    Army General Taro Utsunomiya stepped forward at the right time and directed the matter to a situation where everyone was carrying the sedan chair and everyone was happy. It took almost half a day from the morning to now. Shinnosuke Kikuchi, the 5th Infantry Brigade Headquarters, the 6th Infantry Regiment  The right detachment composed of the team and a battalion of the Chinese Armored Regiment did not encounter a large group of enemies, but was trapped by the swamps and puddles on the right bank of the North Donets River. At this time, it had just advanced to 5 miles from the northern suburbs of Kharkov.  Stopped for a rest after 1km.

    The 13th Volga Federation Infantry Division, responsible for the central attack, under the command of division commander Liukin Alexeevich Voronezh, advanced along both wings of the railway and had just arrived 7 kilometers north of the ring defense line on the outskirts of Kharkiv.  This is not to say that Voronezh's 13th Infantry Division is moving slower, but because they are assembled 10 kilometers further north than the 5th Infantry Brigade, building a defense line at the Ukrainian first trench from the border.  When the railways and roads to Kharkov were blasted and severely damaged by the German-Ukrainian engineering troops, Voronezh and his division walked nearly 30 kilometers in half a day, which was considered a so-so journey.

    Fortunately, whether it was Kikuchi Shinnosuke's right detachment or Voronezh's center troops, they were constantly escorted and passed by the coalition SE5 fighter squadron when they advanced. This made the troops a little tired during the march, but their morale was always quite high.  The Ukrainians had been fleeing without a fight all morning, leaving the officers and soldiers of the coalition's center no doubt about the victory in the Battle of Kharkov.

    "Your Excellency, Commander, what should I do with the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division? Lu Huanyan sent a telegram before, saying that the main force of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division was withdrawing southward along the Kharkov Forest and was defeated by his armored forces northeast of the outskirts of Kharkov.  After intercepting at a position about 5 kilometers away, he had turned around and headed east back to the forest. His armored troops were exhausted after a whole morning of pursuit and combat. Coupled with the restrictions of the terrain, he had to use the armored troops to chase and annihilate the fleeing enemies in the forest.  We are full of ambition but not strong enough, so we can only stop to rest and wait for ammunition and supplies to be replenished!¡±

    At this moment, Jiro Oba did not look like the nominal commander-in-chief of the former enemy and the commander of the third division, but like a primary school student asking for instructions from his class teacher. Here, Shunroku Hata frowned and said without waiting for Utsunomiya Taro to answer.  ,

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, the Chinese Armored Regiment only has 2 battalions. It was able to penetrate all the way from the Kharkiv Forest and discover the Ukrainian infantry."??The traces of the 1st and 2nd Divisions, and the first to tie up the mouth of the bag, blocking the retreat of these two divisions to Kharkov, is already quite rare, and they are asked to give up the mobility and firepower of armored vehicles.  With the advantage, it is obviously inappropriate to enter the forest to chase the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division.  "Shunroku Hata has obviously seen through Oba's thoughts, which is to give all the hard work to the Chinese armored forces. Who said they have strong combat effectiveness and high mobility?

    "Chief of Staff Hata, you can't just watch the Ukrainians run away from the forest, right? Now the 18th Infantry Regiment of Masato Ezaki has been forced to rest and wait for reinforcements after a bitter battle. If they wait for reinforcements from Major General Muto's 23rd Infantry Brigade,  Go up, the day lily is already cold, in my opinion, if you don¡¯t want to let the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division escape, I¡¯m afraid Colonel Lu¡¯s armored forces will have to work harder!¡± Lieutenant General Atari, commander of the Japanese 3rd Division!  A disapproving attitude.

    "Chief of Staff, Da Tingjun's idea is not unfeasible. Since Lu Huanyan's infantry company who got off the car and crossed the river to fight can take down the artillery unit of the 1st Ukrainian Infantry Division, then at this moment they are in the northeastern suburbs of Kharkov City.  Isn¡¯t it too much to send some of the main force of the two battalions into the forest to pursue the defeated troops of the 2nd Ukrainian Infantry Division? Even if we can¡¯t win, it¡¯s okay to bite the enemy, right?¡± Utsunomiya Taro held up his chin and winked.  Said with eyes closed.
