    Facing the remnants of the Soviet 37th Group Army, they desperately tried to break through. The three infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, plus the 11th Brigade of the Directly Affiliated Corps, blocked the blockade in Gurbansai Khan.  Continuous skies, bullets like locusts, smoke and dust flying everywhere, blood and flesh flying everywhere, the battlefield is like boiling porridge, evaporating fresh life.

    The 37th Army of the Soviet Army tried its best to make the craziest breakout, but failed to make any progress. The blocking line in front of them was like a copper wall. Every time it came close, it was bounced back with great force, causing a bloody head.  The flow left countless corpses. Lieutenant General Hippolyv, commander of the group army, looked at the stalemate on the battlefield. His heart, which had already sunk to the bottom, fell further and further into the darker abyss. His eyes  The child is becoming more and more gloomy.

    "If in the northern part of Seyinshanda, when the fighting just broke out, our own artillery was not destroyed by the artillery of the independent division, and if we did not order the tank troops of the group army to continue to act as rearguards to block the pursuing independent division troops, if the artillery  With any remaining tank, the independent division's blocking position in front of us is still an obstacle," Lieutenant General Hippolyv thought sadly.

    The answer is of course no. The cruel reality is that all the artillery, tanks and heavy equipment of the 37th Army were lost in the initial devastating artillery bombardment of the Independent Division and the subsequent hasty retreat. Hippoly  In the hands of Lieutenant General Hippolyv, he could not even raise an artillery company. There were not so many ifs and what-ifs in the world, only the cold reality. Lieutenant General Hippolyv sighed sadly, and the feeling of despair and powerlessness filled him.  heart.

    Just when the comrade commander was dejected, a senior staff officer, smelling of gunpowder smoke, came in and reported: "Report to comrade commander. The breakout troops suffered heavy casualties and joined the independent division positions of the later troops, which became even more  It is difficult to break through, and even our soldiers cannot get close to the position. Each military commander asked if they could suspend the attack and readjust their deployment. They should concentrate all their forces and adopt a focused attack to break through at one point. Otherwise, the troops would be very likely to break through.  All consumed in Gurbansai Khan!¡±

    The words of the senior staff officer completely ignited the hysteria of Lieutenant General Hippolyv.  "What? Pause the attack? Adjust the deployment? Stupid pigs - they are all stupid pigs without a brain! Think about it with your brain. Will the Chinese give us time to adjust the deployment? Behind us, chasing after us, are ten  With more than 10,000 independent division soldiers and thousands of tanks, you want me to issue an order to suspend the attack?" He roared angrily, spitting cold saliva.  Spray onto the senior staff officer's face.

    "Time, what we lack most is time! The Chinese don't give us time. Any hesitation or hesitation will ruin our last hope. To convey my order, we cannot attack at any cost. If the military commander doubts me  With the order, I will let him be the first to rush to the front!" Lieutenant General Hippolyv, roaring with red eyes, even pulled out his pistol and fired it back and forth on the senior planner's head.  Gestures, it means that if you disagree, you will have your head ripped off.

    The senior staff officer was so frightened that he trembled all over and ran away in a fit of piss. As he ran, he muttered to himself, "It's over. Comrade Commander has gone crazy and lost his mind. He can't even listen to correct opinions!"  Under the circumstances, this suggestion is absolutely reasonable. If the attack is frustrated and the troops suffer heavy casualties, they should readjust their deployment and find an effective way to break through. However, at this time and place, it is not appropriate.

    It was reasonable for Lieutenant General Hippolyv to get angry. There was an interception in front and a pursuit behind him. The top priority must be to break through the enemy's obstruction in front and escape. Although he was crazy, his idea was still correct, but he did not stop.  The effect was that the Chinese blocking position was like an iron door bolt, lying across Gurbansai Khan, blocking the group army's retreat to Kulun. It seemed that the 37th Group Army was going to be destroyed here. He had already  See clearly the outcome of the battle.

    Within more than an hour, the Soviet army completely adopted the human sea tactic, and no longer paid attention to the rhythm of the attack. Groups of Soviet soldiers, like moths throwing fire, surged up one by one, and fell one by one.  Under the dense fire net of the three infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps and the 11th Brigade of the Directly Affiliated Corps, they were cut into sieve holes by the rain of bullets and torn into pieces by the dense artillery shells and grenades.

    Many soldiers of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps who participated in the Gurbansai Khan Blockade, after the war, when talking about the battle situation to their comrades in other brigades, almost always said something like, "Good guy, that one was miserable, he was beaten softly."  , The gun barrel is all red! At first glance, there are old Maozi soldiers¡¯ bloody corpses everywhere, and there is blood everywhere!¡±

    Such a bloody blocking battle was common for the soldiers of the 11th Brigade of the Directly Affiliated Corps. The little devil's hand-to-hand charge was ruthless and life-threatening, but he was still beaten. Therefore, after the battle,  There is nothing to talk about, for these old people who have seen big scenesTo a large extent, it is just an extraordinary battle!

    Lieutenant General Hippolyv, who had fallen into a state of hysteria, desperately squeezed out the last bit of blood and frantically attacked the blocking position of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps. There was only one order in all, "Attack - attack regardless of casualties!"  He gathered a unit, gathered it, organized it into the next offensive echelon, and then continued the attack. His order made this inconspicuous town in southern Outer Mongolia, Gurbansai Khan, become the 37th Army of the Soviet Army.  meat grinder.

    What is even more far-reaching is that the cruel and bloody Gurbansai Khan Blockade became a battle that cannot be ignored on the growth path of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps. Especially these three infantry brigades, after the baptism of war, they grew rapidly.  As the main brigade of the Corps, according to post-war statistics, at least more than 60,000 Soviet soldiers fell on this dozens of kilometers long front line, becoming the ghosts of injustice on a foreign land.

    God is obviously not on the side of Lieutenant General Guhipolev, the commander of the 37th Soviet Army. The god of fate has not seen his hysterical madness, nor has he seen the blood of Soviet soldiers staining the earth red.  , corpses everywhere, time determines everything. More than two hours later, when the corpses of Soviet soldiers had covered the cold land of Outer Mongolia, the moment to decide the fate of the Soviet 37th Army finally arrived.

    The other three infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, which were chasing up from the left and right wings, rushed to Gurbansai Khan. Without even taking a breath, the troops went directly into the battle. The channel for the Soviet army to withdraw to Kulun was completely closed.  When Ren Zhaoquan received the report, he looked up to the sky and laughed heartily, "Hahaha! Lao Maozi's 37th Army, let's see where you go this time!"

    Ren Zhaoquan was very confident. He already had seven brigades with more than 100,000 troops, especially his own 11th Brigade, a veteran main force. After more than two hours of consumption, the Soviet army  The strength of the troops dropped sharply to less than 60,000. As for the morale of the troops, it was even worse. In fact, without the need for each unit to report, Ren Zhaoquan made a rough judgment in his mind when he saw the corpses of Soviet soldiers everywhere through the telescope.

    The subsequent three infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps joined the battlefield, which not only brought about a doubled increase in strength, but also the most important thing was morale. "In a few hours, just the Soviet army attacked, and the hand  Now that we have the capital, it should be our turn to fight back. Perhaps, before the frontal pursuit troops of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps arrive, they will have already eaten up the Soviet army!" Ren Zhaoquan thought.

    Putting down his telescope, Ren Zhaoquan said to Chief of Staff Fu Dechun with a murderous look in his eyes: "Chief of Staff, order the brigades to organize their troops and launch a full-scale counterattack against the Soviet army in half an hour! Tell several people from the Outer Mongolia Field Corps  Brigadier, all troops must be used, no reserves left!¡±

    The offensive momentum has been lost, and it is no longer as crazy and ruthless as before. However, under the strict orders of the Army Group Headquarters, it is still feebly maintaining its offensive posture. However, all Soviet officers and soldiers know very well that the attack will  It is nothing more than maintaining a hopeless illusion, but the independent division troops on Gurbansai Khan's blocking line will completely shatter even this last illusion.

    Half an hour later, in front of the blocking position of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, the Soviet soldiers who were unable to attack and did not dare to retreat, and were pinned to the bare ground by firepower, strangely discovered that the position that had claimed the lives of countless comrades,  There was no longer a rain of metal bullets, and the continuous shells from the beginning of the battle no longer fell. The battlefield instantly fell into extreme silence. However, this silence only lasted less than three minutes.  The blue-gray eyes of the Soviet soldiers were horrified to see countless figures leaping up from the position, tongues of fire spitting from their guns, and a wave of mad wolves sweeping in!

    The six infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps, which had the advantage in strength and morale on the battlefield, and the 11th Mechanized Infantry Brigade of the Corps directly under the corps, attacked the 37th Soviet Army, which had been beaten to pieces with broken bones and tendons, with overwhelming momentum and momentum.  The remnants of the group army launched a full-scale counterattack!

    The Soviet soldiers who no longer had fighting spirit collapsed at the first touch. Lieutenant General Hippolyv put down his telescope dejectedly. He knew that the 37th Army had no hope at all. At this time, no matter what he did, it was in vain. In his  Surrounded by a large group of senior officers, their faces were ashen and they looked like they were in imminent disaster. Farther away, groups of soldiers were retreating in panic.

    "Where to retreat? There are still hundreds of thousands of independent divisions pursuing us!" Lieutenant General Hippolyv chuckled nervously and murmured, "Comrades, the outcome of the battle is already obvious. We have failed.  , the 37th Army will no longer exist. I will not be a prisoner of the Chinese, and you should not be a prisoner either. Comrades, for the sake of the Soviets and Comrade Stalin, we should have our own choices!"
