Chapter 45: Beheading, General Attack (Second Update)

  On that day, the Chinese Air Force dispatched nearly eight hundred tactical bombers. These tactical bombers were the most produced aircraft by the East China Aircraft Manufacturing Factory because they could be exported.

  These aircraft were originally produced for export, so the number has accumulated to 800. I believe that after this Sino-Russian war, these aircraft can be easily sold and exchanged for a large sum of money.

  Eight hundred bombers bombed the Russian military field hospitals, field warehouses and artillery positions that were detected by reconnaissance planes. The Russian soldiers had seen airplanes before, but they had never seen an airplane that could drop bombs, so they didn't have any anti-aircraft awareness at all.

  During the bombing, the artillery of the Revival Army also formally engaged in an intense artillery battle with the Russian army.

  The revitalized army's artillery steadily suppressed the Russian army, and maintained an advantage in performance. After a large number of live-fire exercises and with the assistance of German artillerymen, Chinese artillery steadily suppressed Russian artillery in the artillery battle.

  After the artillery battle began, Russian artillery was continuously destroyed by Chinese artillery. Chinese artillery often managed to quickly assemble as many artillery pieces as possible through wireless telegraphy to bombard Russian artillery. In contrast, Russian artillery fought mostly alone and could not concentrate their forces together because the number of wireless telegraphy equipment for Russian artillery was completely insufficient.

  After the air force joined in the bombing, Russia's artillery fell silent soon after.

  How can we engage in an artillery battle with the Chinese coalition forces without air superiority?

  As soon as the Russian artillery is exposed, it will be subjected to a fierce bombing by the Chinese air force. Although many of these bombs cannot directly destroy the Russian artillery, they can easily kill the Russian army's mules and gunners, rendering the Russian artillery crippled.

  Russian field hospitals and warehouses were also severely damaged by the sudden bombing, and the Russian army lost a large amount of ammunition and food in the bombing.

  In addition, the artillery also did not dare to open fire again. The Chinese artillery began to frequently harass the Russian position with uninterrupted and intense shelling, making it impossible for the Russian army to rest easy.

  This passive beating without counterattack severely hit the morale of Russian soldiers, but greatly boosted the morale of Chinese coalition forces.

  This caused all soldiers on the Chinese Expeditionary Force side to firmly believe that they could win this victory.

  But on the Russian side, their soldiers have begun to suspect whether they will lose this war.

  Will activities are an important part of the war process, just as the German military guide "On War" says that material is only the handle of the army, and will and spirit are the sharp blade.

  The ancient Chinese sages also realized the impact of morale on war, and particularly emphasized that an army must win its first battle in order to establish a psychology of invincibility in the minds of its soldiers.

  It has been proven that the human spirit is a massive energy with an impact on material movement, these energies converge in the cosmic energy field through an incredible transmission distance, thereby driving the production of cosmic matter.

  When scientists found out that matter is composed of energy, what produces this further energy? That's the spirit!

  Just like gamblers, skilled gamblers will cleverly use language to gain the upper hand in the situation, making others believe they can win money. At the same time, these gamblers will constantly call out the cards they want in their minds, and this method is often effective.

  War is like gambling, when one side thinks it's going to lose a war, then it will inevitably fail.

  War is carried out in the spiritual activities of tens of millions of people, even the spiritual activities of the whole nation, which will affect the outcome of the war.

  The Chinese coalition forces occupying the upper wind obviously occupy a spiritual advantage.

  The Allied Army of various provinces, inspired by the Revival Army, is in high spirits and no longer considers the Russian army to be invincible. They will surely march towards victory under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief, ultimately returning triumphantly with pride, reaping their glory and status.

  Revived soldiers have no fear before the war begins. Fear is the fear of physical harm, and courage is the need to survive.

  In the Ming dynasty hundreds of years ago, the anti-Japanese general Yu Dayou had already proposed a "bravery training" program, which allowed soldiers to jump from giant rocks to overcome their fear of physical harm. This training method was also included in Qi Jiguang's "Jixiao Xinshu", and was introduced into the daily training of the Revival Army. The bravery training projects of the Revival Army were numerous, not only jumping down from giant rocks, but often using explosives to assist in bravery training.

  Soldiers trained by Revival Army no longer fear physical harm, which enables them to remain brave and fearless in adversity.

  Under the ebb and flow of morale, the scales of victory have tilted in favor of the Chinese United Army.

  The sudden bombing disrupted the plans of the Russian military commanders, and soon the Chinese Allied Forces also dispatched a motorized infantry division to operate in the rear of the Russian army.

  To prevent the supply lines from being completely cut off, a Cossack cavalry corps was sent by the Russian army.

  As a result, this Cossack cavalry corps was dispatched and defeated by two motorized infantry divisions. In the field battle, the cavalry was such a big target, while the two motorized infantry divisions had mobility that was not inferior to that of the cavalry, and also possessed a large number of machine guns and light artillery, which completely annihilated these Cossack cavalry in the field battle.

  It has proven that cavalry is no longer of much military value.

  Under the circumstances where Cossack cavalry could no longer protect logistics supplies, Russian commanders had already harbored thoughts of retreat.

  Judging from the current situation, it will take at least half a month for Russia to get domestic support, but with the remaining food and ammunition of the Russian army, it can't even last half a month.

  At that time, it was just a thought to run, and I estimate that even soldiers would have no strength to run.

  Jiang Yu and the General Staff had anticipated the Russian intention to withdraw, but with the strength of the Chinese United Army, it was not enough to besiege the 220,000-strong Russian army.

  "According to the electronic reconnaissance department's detection, the Russian army command should be in this area, and aerial reconnaissance has also confirmed this intelligence. Wang Chenghai, your mission is to break through from the weak point of the Russian defense and then quickly insert into the location of the Russian command, even if it is impossible to successfully behead, you must make the Russian army fall into a state of chaos without command." Jiang Yu asked Wang Chenghai: "Do you have confidence?"

  "Yes! I will resolutely complete the task." Wang Chenghai replied loudly and gave a military salute to Jiang Yu.

  "Alright, depart at 3 am."

  "Yes."

  ……

  On August 5th at 3 am, the Jiangyu dispatched a special warfare battalion to launch a beheading operation against the Russian army. The special warfare company took advantage of the night's cover and used submachine guns to easily break into the weakly defended environment of the Russian army.

  Among the army of 220,000, it is inevitable that there are weak points, and being infiltrated by an elite troop of only over 500 people, it is very difficult to communicate with each other in a timely manner.

  Special warfare battalion like a ghost wandering in the Russian army's position, and at an extremely fast speed rushed to the Russian army headquarters. To cover up the action of special warfare battalion, Chinese allied forces' artillery positions continuously bombarded the Russian army with cannons, the sound of cannons covering up the gunshots transmitted in the night.

  At 4:20, the special operations battalion successfully infiltrated outside the Russian army headquarters without being detected. The special operations battalion sent a platoon of troops to sneak into the Russian army headquarters tent, and in a burst of intense gunfire, the personnel inside the Russian army headquarters were ruthlessly killed by the soldiers of the special operations battalion.

  It wasn't until then that the Russian troops responsible for guarding the headquarters discovered something was amiss, at which point the Spetsnaz battalion cut off the power lines, plunging the area into darkness and fired several signal flares into the air. The Spetsnaz battalion quickly broke through the encirclement, rapidly withdrawing from the battlefield in the midst of the Russian troops' confusion, and launched another attack from a weak point in the Russian lines.

  Receiving a signal flare from the Special Warfare Battalion indicates that Operation Beheading has been successful.

  Inside the command center, all personnel were in high spirits, and Jiang Yu immediately issued a general attack order.

  On the artillery position, hundreds of signal flares suddenly burst out, like fireworks dyeing the sky with a brilliant light.

  Thousands of cannons on the artillery positions adjacent to the Chinese United Army fired in unison!

  Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble!

  The earth seemed to be trembling at this moment, thousands of shells tore through the sky, making every soldier's blood boil.

  The allied armies of various provinces were even more shocked and amazed.

  This is the true strength of the Revival Army!

  In China, who can bring out thousands of artillery pieces? Who can fire such a brilliant cannonade? Who can calmly face such a cannonade?

  No!

  There is only one Revival Army!

  The general attack began, and the First Division quickly mobilized. With the First Division as the spearhead, it swiftly divided the Russian army's right wing of nearly 80,000 people. The provincial coalition forces closely followed behind, inseparable at this moment.

  The Allied soldiers held guns and rushed towards the Russian army in the trenches, shouting "Banzai" after the First Division tore open a big gap with lightning speed.

  Fierce annihilation battle officially starts!

  ——————

  Classmates are very powerful, today they burst some brushes again, and have risen from the thirteenth on the list to sixth place.

  Now the brushers have all fallen, the first two are still relatively easy to burst, with only a slight gap. This week's rise to fourth place should be no problem, hope classmates come and collect more votes!
