    Chapter 270: Tacheng Counterattack Then Boss Peng looked at Wu Di and said wittily: "I heard from Deng Feng that your boy is a tiger general. This time you act like a tiger general and first defeat the Soviet Central Asian Military Region.  The headquarters in Almaty was swept away by me. Even if it couldn't hit any big figures in the Soviet army, it would have a shocking effect on their hearts and give them a psychological blow. Zhu.COm.  Look at the color and completely discourage this polar bear. It will scare them for generations. " "Mr. Peng, just wait here and watch," Wu Di said carelessly.  That afternoon, after careful consideration, Peng Dehuai personally drafted a message to the supreme leader, suggesting that peace talks with the Soviet Union should not be held for the time being.  The full text of the telegram is as follows: Chairman, Deng Feng has decided that the troops on the eastern and central fronts will devote all their campaign reserves to launch a general attack on the Soviet army on the eastern and central fronts with the aim of occupying the maximum amount of land, and launch a general counterattack on the western front to restore recovery.  The territories occupied by the Soviet Union include Tacheng, Zhamin County, Hot Spring, Bertala, Huocheng and other areas.  I think it works.  On the morning of the 28th, I arrived at the Western Front Headquarters in Urumqi and listened to reports from Sai Fuding, Zhang Zihua, and Wu Di on the situation on the Western Front. According to the current situation on the Western Front, the elimination of the Soviet invasion enemy may be completed in mid-to-early March.  It would be inappropriate to negotiate peace with the Soviet Union before then.  Deng Feng also meant this.  I have recently organized a counterattack on the Western Front in Urumqi. Please tell me whether it is appropriate.  "" After receiving the telegram, the Supreme Leader immediately replied and expressed his agreement: The Soviet Union has expressed a strong desire for peace through our embassy in the Soviet Union and Kim Il Sung. The peace talks will depend on the development of the situation, but it should not be delayed for too long.  .  At this time, various factors at home and abroad are extremely beneficial to us, and we can use our hands and feet to attack.  The entire defensive system of the Soviet army on the eastern and central fronts has been completely destroyed, and it is appropriate to launch a general attack.  The Soviet army's large corps on the Western Front, with its wide front and high speed, was at the end of its war effort, and it was necessary to launch a counterattack on the Western Front.  It is very appropriate and comforting that you organized the Western Front counterattack in Urumqi.  Afterwards, Peng Dehuai, Sai Fuding, Zhang Zihua, and Wu Di studied the battle plan in detail.  Finally, he said firmly: "We must give the Soviet army a hard blow from land and air to completely destroy their will to fight. Let them be honest for at least 20 years." On March 1, Peng Dehuai and Deng Feng jointly sent a letter to all parties on the Western Front.  The combat troops issued an order to counterattack, and readjusted the deployment of the original 8 divisions in the Xinjiang Military Region and the ** Military Region, and assigned 92 tanks from the only "Destroyer" tank regiment in the ** Military Region to the battalion units.  Tacheng, Huocheng, and Hot Spring are the three main directions of attack.  In order to make up for the lack of ground attack power, more than 90 MiG-19 fighter jets and 30 Soviet Tu-16 medium-range bombers temporarily equipped with identification friend or foe systems were transferred from the newly occupied Khabarovsk and Komsomolsk airports on the eastern front.  At the same time, in order to strengthen air command, dispatch and electromagnetic suppression, Wang Kunpeng, deputy secretary of the Far East Working Committee, personally brought the Air Police 2000 early warning aircraft to Urumqi.  Tacheng is the largest town in Chinese territory occupied by the Soviet army this time, and it is also the main recovery target of the Chinese border defense forces.  Tacheng is adjacent to Altay region in the northeast and Bortala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture in the southwest.  Tacheng is like an equilateral triangle inserted into the territory of the Soviet Autonomous Republic of Kazakhstan. Its west and north sides are bordered by the Soviet Autonomous Republic of Kazakhstan, and its east side faces the city of Karamay.  At the foot of the Great Man Mountain, 17 kilometers southwest of Tacheng, is the Baktu Port connecting the Soviet Union's Kazakhstan Autonomous Republic to our country. The Soviet Union's A356 Highway is connected to the 221 Provincial Highway in Xinjiang, China.  Due to the prominent position of Tacheng, it is not conducive to defense. In the "Operation Bear Hunt" plan, it was set that if the Soviet army launched a large-scale attack, it was prepared to persist here for 4.5 days.  The Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture and the Altay region in the northeast launched an assault, forming a situation of north-south advance. The Tacheng Military Division Border Defense Regiment and the 162nd Regiment of the Yergeti Regiment, the 163rd Regiment of the Akchok Regiment, and the 164th Regiment of the Ulastai Regiment only held on.  2 days later, they were forced to evacuate the Tacheng area.  A new line of defense was formed on Provincial Highway 221 and the 8th Agricultural Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.  After the Soviet army occupied the border town of Tacheng, it became the main frontline support base of the Soviet army. In Tacheng's Ergong Town, Kalahabak Township, Yemen Le Township and Baktu Port, there were stationed troops from the Soviet Central Asia Military District.  The 38th Motorized Infantry Division and the 25th Tank Division have a total of more than 20,000 people to ensure the security of this frontline support base.  Due to the Soviet army's tactical thinking, they did not dig deep holes and build tunnels, trenches, open fortresses and secret passages on the defensive line.  Instead, mutually supporting defensive fire support points were established with tanks as the center to strictly block the Chinese troops.  Mines were set up on all paths in front of the position.  Faced with such a deployment by the Soviet army, the Xinjiang Military Region made careful deployments and arrangements.  Under the command of General Peng, a comprehensive counterattack was launched against the Soviet Union on the Western Front.  At 2 o'clock in the morning on March 3, China's western front troops counterattacked the Soviet army that invaded Xinjiang.A massive bombardment was announced.  Following Peng Dehuai's order, China's more than 2,000 artillery pieces were massed, overwhelmingly firing at the Soviet army. In particular, the 122mm 40-barreled rocket launcher fired three salvos in a row, like a barrage of fire.  Lightning roared towards the Soviet position. After 20 minutes of artillery preparation, 2,000 tons of artillery shells were poured on the Soviet position. In an instant, the entire battlefield was filled with deafening explosions, smoke filled the sky, and flames shot into the sky.  , the Soviet position turned into a sea of ??fire.  As the artillery fire extended, the Tacheng Army Division, the Border Guard Regiment, the 8th Agricultural Division, and the 9th Agricultural Division participating in the Tacheng Counterattack cooperated with each other to form an armored assault group spearheaded by "Destroyer" tanks and American Pershing M26 tanks.  Under the cover of the Soviet Army and the Air Force, they launched a sudden and fierce attack on the 38th Motorized Infantry Division and the 25th Tank Division of the Soviet Army's Central Asia Military Region entrenched in Tacheng Town, Kalahabak Township, Yemen Le Township and Baktu Port.  The charge horn sounded, and the offensive troops participating in the Tacheng counterattack followed the tanks and launched a flood of attacks on the invading Soviet positions.  The sacred duty of soldiers made these soldiers forget their fear. While shouting, they skillfully performed various combat actions according to their usual training. The roar of planes swooping in the sky, the explosion of rockets hitting T55 tanks, light and heavy machine guns and  The firing of automatic weapons, the hoarse shouts of soldiers on both sides, and the roar of tank motors merged into one. Thunderous thunder echoed in the Tacheng Basin, and unusually majestic and thrilling war scenes flashed in the blazing night.  "Highland 463 has been occupied by me. Our army has rushed into Kalahabak Township and is advancing in depth." "The forward position in Le Township, Yemen has been breached by me." "We have entered Ergong Town and occupied the warehouse of Tacheng Mining Company.  , is now the ammunition depot of the Soviet army." "We occupied the Great Man Mountain and controlled the roads on both sides of the Baktu Port." Successful reports came frequently, and it took only 1 hour and 30 minutes to break through the Soviet Tacheng defense line.  The assault group composed of the border defense regiment of the Tacheng Military Division and attacked the Baktu Port made particularly rapid progress. Wang Xinguang, commander of the Tacheng Military Division, led a reinforced company and bypassed the Talbachatai hills and mountains and penetrated into the Soviet Kazakhstan.  In the territory of the Autonomous Republic of Stanislavia, on the winding roads, surrounded by darkness, the deeper you go into the hinterland of the Soviet Union, the more you feel like you are facing an abyss.  At this time, they discovered that there was a well-hidden Soviet supply station in a deep forested ravine more than 10 kilometers away from the Baktu Port. They immediately informed the Air Force of the coordinates of this supply station.  They stopped in front of a Soviet military camp 3 kilometers away from the Baktu Port Road and lurked here waiting for the battle to begin. After the artillery fire was prepared, three MiG-19s carried out supplementary bombing and bombing of the Soviet military camp.  At this time, they saw the Soviet supply station hidden in the forest valley that they had just directed being shrouded in fire.  Later, they learned that this was an important fuel supply station for the 25th Tank Division of the Soviet Central Asian Military Region.  The incisive attack by the artillery and air force comrades turned the Soviet army into a chaotic mess, with people crying and wolf howling.  This greatly encouraged the soldiers led by Wang Xinguang who penetrated behind enemy lines, and they suddenly felt that their military morale was boosted.  The time for counterattack arrived. Commander Wang Xinguang held a Type 51 automatic rifle in his right hand and said to the platoon leaders around him: "Come in, take advantage of the chaos." They quickly approached the target and suddenly rushed into the Soviet army's  The military camp was in chaos. There were bomb craters, bombed-out military vehicles, and burning tents everywhere. Soviet corpses and wounded soldiers were lying around the craters and tents. In the darkness, he looked like a Soviet commander.  , shouting to Wang Xinguang: "§£§í§Ù§Õ§à§â§à§Ó§î§ñ§à§Þ§Ñ§ß§Õ§í? §´§Ö§á§Ö§â§î§Ú§Õ§Ú§ä§å§Õ§Ñ,§é§ä§à§Ò§í§ã§á§Ñ§ã§ä§Ú§â§Ñ§ß§Ö§ß§í§ç!" (Are you a health team? Go up and rescue the wounded immediately) "Da, da, da" Wang Xinguang had no time to grab it. What kind of wounded was he trying to save?  The Type 51 automatic rifle fired a burst at the Soviet officer who was yelling at him.  The officer responded.  In an instant, grenades and automatic rifles rained down on the chaotic Soviet army.  In the chaos, Wang Xinguang took the lead in charging into the battle. His automatic rifle continued to fire tongues of flame, and he stuffed grenades into the Soviet tents one by one.  The soldiers were unwilling to lag behind and took the lead bravely. They alternately covered the charge and became more courageous as they fought, making the Soviet army dizzy.  Faced with such disorganization in the dark night, the Soviet army could not distinguish between the enemy's and our own fighting styles, and did not know how to "play" at all.  This battle was fought cleanly, and the communications terminal of the 38th Motorized Rifle Division of the Soviet Central Asian Military Region at the Baktu Port in Tacheng was eliminated.  These tactics also benefited from Wang Xinguang¡¯s life as a guerrilla teacher in the Indian Working Committee for several years.  The counterattack on the Western Front is still continuing intensely. The Soviet army has concentrated the 88th Tank Division of the Central Asian Military District in the Soviet Union near the Huocheng area.Assemble within ??.  Although the Chinese Western Front Air Force Command dispatched a large number of air forces to carry out non-stop bombing, the Soviet army suffered continuous air attacks and still completed the assembly with difficulty despite losing 15% of its tanks and 25% of its armored vehicles.  In the early morning of March 9, the 63rd Reclamation Regiment of the Aker Fort in the north of Sandaohe Township, Huocheng County reported that there was a deafening roar of tank motors in the Soviet Union, and a Soviet armored unit was advancing towards the Aker Fort.  Immediately, the Western Front Command ordered 33 "Destroyer" tanks from the 1st Battalion of the ** Military Region Tank Regiment in Qingshuihe Town, as well as the 62nd Agricultural Regiment and the 6th 88th Tank Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.  At about 4 o'clock in the morning, more than 300 Soviet T55 tanks crossed the border and entered the desert area southwest of Huocheng. The Soviet tanks formed an armored assault group with 40 to 50 tanks and rushed towards the Chinese position overwhelmingly. The T55 tanks were on  It also carries infantry.  Seeing this scene, an anti-tank force consisting of 33 "Destroyer" tanks from the 1st Battalion of the Tank Regiment of the ** Military Region and 82 recoilless rifles and 40 rocket launchers from the 62nd and 63rd Agricultural Regiments of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps immediately entered the battle.  Suddenly, there was a loud sound of artillery and armor-piercing shells flying among the tanks on both sides. The Soviet tanks continued to catch fire and explode, and gunpowder smoke enveloped the entire land.  As soon as the battle began, the Soviet T-55 tanks rushed directly towards the anti-tank positions of the 1st Tank Battalion of the ** Military Region and the 62nd and 63rd Agricultural Regiments of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.  However, the 105 mm caliber gun of the T-55 tank was unable to destroy the Chinese "Destroyer" tanks at long range. Therefore, a large number of Soviet T55 tanks were already attacked by the first wave of the 1st Battalion before approaching the Chinese anti-tank positions.  After being repulsed, there were hundreds of wreckage of Soviet tanks on the battlefield. The 180th Tank Regiment of the Soviet 88th Tank Division was completely destroyed in the battle.  After the Soviet army retreated, 10 Far East Corps Western Front Air Force Tu-16 medium-range bombers and 20 MiG-19 fighter jets with the August 1st Army emblem painted on their fuselages came to assist in the battle. Since these captured Soviet aircraft did not have fire control  Radar cannot carry out missile attacks and can only carry out bombing.  Lack of accuracy against moving targets.  After the first wave of attacks was repelled, the Soviet army launched a second wave of attacks. This time, the Soviet army used 30 tanks as an assault group and organized 10 such assault groups to launch a 10-kilometer offensive towards China.  The impact.  The enemy changed and we changed. The 1st Battalion of the ** Military Region Tank Regiment also divided the 33 "Destroyer" tanks into 10 groups. Each group was equipped with 6 vehicles, carrying 2 82 recoilless rifles and 4 groups of rocket launchers.  Maneuver to form far, medium and near anti-armor formations to block the attacks of multiple Soviet tank assault groups.  The Soviet army had a numerical advantage 10 times that of Chinese tanks, and China had an absolute qualitative advantage in "Destroyer" tanks. The two sides engaged in a tank "hand-to-hand battle" on a battlefield of 20 square kilometers.  The Soviet army used 3 tank regiments, 10 tank assault groups, and more than 300 tanks, advancing hand in hand, charging at the Chinese ** troops at a density of 30 tanks per kilometer.  However, the maximum cross-country speed of the T55 tank is only 35 kilometers/hour. Compared with Chinese tanks, the moving speed is slow. It uses manual loading and has a slow firing rate. The actual firing rate of the main gun in combat is only 2 rounds/minute. The firing range is short, and the maximum firing range is 1,600 meters. These  The early T-55 tanks were only equipped with high and low artillery stabilizers, and were not equipped with high and low and horizontal bi-directional stabilizers, making it impossible to shoot accurately while traveling.  The fire control system of the T55 tank couldn't be simpler. The commander controls the command tower and uses the §´§±§¬-1 periscope to search for targets. After capturing the target, he turns the turret to indicate the target to the gunner, and then the gunner passes 1  A §´§º2-22 sight is used for precise aiming. There are "¡Ä" shaped marks engraved on the commander's and gunner's sights. By adjusting the azimuth and elevation angles of the gun, the aiming mark of the relevant ammunition type on the sight is in line with the target.  Aim to shoot.  Although the number of Chinese tanks is small, they have long range, fast firing rate, high shooting accuracy while traveling, extremely strong attack power, and absolutely powerful armor protection capabilities.  At the beginning of the battle, the 1st Tank Battalion of the ** Military Region took full advantage of the long range and advanced fire control system of the "Destroyer" tank, and began to accurately shoot at the Soviet T55 tank at 2,600 meters. The Soviet army was a little more anxious.  There is no way, it can't be reached even if I try to hit it.  The only way now is to rush up quickly and engage in close combat with the Chinese tanks.  Before the Soviet tanks reached their range, 1/2 of them were paralyzed by Chinese tanks on the way to the charge.  When the Soviet tanks paid half the price and approached the maximum range of their own tanks of 1,600 meters, the "Destroyer" tank used its high speed and flexibility to begin to destroy Soviet tanks while moving rapidly.  If you want to fight in close combat, you have to be able to catch up and fight.  At this time, the Soviet tanks were not as fast as the Chinese tanks, and their flexibility was not good. Just after taking aim, before pressing the gun button, the Chinese tank ran out of the sight again.  There is no solution to the difference in quality. In this Sino-Soviet tank duel, the Soviet Union dropped about 360 swaying wreckage of tanks on a battlefield of less than 20 square kilometers littered with corpses.  It ended with the complete defeat of the Soviet Union.    This battle made the Soviet army lose all temper, and completely shattered the Soviet army's dream of defeating the Chinese "invincible warriors" with absolute superiority in numbers.  Not only did it completely destroy the combat effectiveness of the Soviet armored forces, but more importantly, it completely destroyed their will to fight.  Completely reversed the situation on the Western Front.  This battle became an eternal nightmare for the Soviet army and an eternal shame
