    No one came back to their senses. Even the officer on the horse just looked up blankly, wondering in his mind what the hell the plane dropped.  Is it a gift specially given to welcome them?  But it doesn¡¯t look like it?  It is dark, has a pointed head, a round body, and a few leaf-like structures at its tail. It looks similar to the mortar shells equipped by the troops.

    Mortar shells?  bomb!  ?

    With a start, he realized that what fell from the sky was a bomb dropped by a plane!  At this moment, he had no time to think about why his own plane dropped bombs on them. His face changed drastically and he only had time to shout, "God!" Several bombs fell with a whistling sound.

    "Boom! Boom!"

    The bomb suddenly exploded in the crowd. The dozens of people closest to the center of the explosion were immediately dead and their limbs were flying in the air.  As the explosion sounded, the team was in chaos. The injured were crying and asking for help from their comrades, while the survivors who had just reacted fled everywhere, regardless of the weapons they carried. They ran to a less crowded place in fear, or held their heads.  Throw yourself to the ground and pray to God.

    In fact, Frunze's air force is not that good. There are only five bombers modified from old-fashioned aircraft from the European War, and their bomb carrying capacity cannot be compared with that of the Chinese Air Force. Each aircraft only has four at most.  Five ten kilogram bombs.

    However, a bomb is a bomb after all. Compared with the bombardment of a cannon, a strike from the air is more frightening.  You have to know that you can still find a place to hide with artillery, but you can't even hide in an air attack.  Looking down from the air, groups of panicked soldiers are almost like fragile lambs waiting to be slaughtered.  A pilot can easily fly over anyone's head and drop a bomb in their face.  Coupled with the air strikes that no one had expected, the consequences for the morale of the troops were extremely serious. With the bombing of five aircraft, plus the pilots who followed the aircraft on the aircraft, holding machine guns from the aircraft  While firing wildly at the crowd below, the unit suddenly fell into chaos.

    That¡¯s not all. While avoiding air strikes and aerial strafing, a strange sound came from the forest not far away.  When some soldiers lay on the ground and looked over there, they were so surprised that they could stuff an egg into their mouths.

    ? One vehicle, two vehicles, three vehicles

    A dozen huge steel monsters emerged from the forest. One of them rushed out of the forest and stopped on the spot. The huge gun barrel moved slowly under the drive of the chassis. When it moved to a certain angle,  At this moment, with a dull loud noise, a ball of orange flames suddenly erupted.  The shells fell into the crowd with a screaming sound.

    "Tank! Soviet tank!"

    People with quick minds soon realized that these steel monsters were none other than tanks like the Chinese.  No one thought that the Soviets actually had powerful weapons such as airplanes and tanks, and that they would launch a surprise attack on them at this time.  What does this mean?  The answer is obvious, the other party has already set a trap.  Just waiting for them to take the bait!

    The moment the tank appeared, the sound of a volley of artillery fire was heard not far away. The overwhelming shells suddenly turned the middle of the team into a sea of ????fire. At this time, the soldiers who had been frightened could no longer care.  I don¡¯t know who takes the lead.  With a shout, he dropped his weapon and ran away in the direction he came from, one with two, two with three In the blink of an eye, the entire unit was about to collapse.

    "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! Defend in place! Organize in-place defense immediately!" Several officers who escaped from the bombing tried to maintain their troops.  Organize manpower to block the tanks attacking them.  However, this situation cannot be undone at all. In an open field, tens of thousands of troops are in a mess. The air force is dropping bombs and strafing from above, and the enemy's artillery groups are bombing below. In addition, tanks are attacking and groups of troops are attacking.  The Soviet Red Army rushed out of the forest, holding rifles and shouting "Ula" to charge.  What can the Far East government forces do to resist, lacking the cover of fortifications and without any heavy weapons?  Besides, the sudden battle had already wiped out the courage of most of the soldiers. At this time, all they could think about was to run!  Run!  Get out of this place as soon as possible!

    Frunze was very well prepared. His air force bombing was mainly aimed at the middle position of the opponent's army, and it broke the enemy's waist like a long snake in one fell swoop.  The next artillery cover was also in the middle section, and the main target of the tank was also the same. It was like a hot knife, easily cutting through the thick butter, making the enemy unable to look at each other from head to tail, and the command system suddenly fell into chaos.

    The Frunze Front, which attacked from the side, penetrated and annihilated the enemy at extremely fast speeds. The 12 tanks ran rampant through the crowd as if they were in an uninhabited land, beating the Far East government soldiers to tears and lamenting that they had grown up.  On two legs, he fled across Sichuan without distinguishing between east and west.

    Disrupted the enemyUnder the command of ??, Frunze commanded the troops to drive the defeated troops to attack the enemy's rear troops in an oppressive manner. This completely caused the collapse of the Far East government army. In less than half an hour, the entire command system was completely paralyzed, and the soldiers were looking for  Without the general, there will be no soldiers. Although some troops tried to organize resistance, they were scattered by the troops retreating from the front before they saw the enemy's shadow. They had no choice but to stabilize their position and retreat in embarrassment.

    "Report to Comrade Commander! Good news! Good news! The enemy has been defeated! The enemy has been defeated by us!" When Frunze came from the depths of the forest to the front line where the battle was still ongoing, the jubilant frontline commander reported to him,  Within half an hour, they completely defeated the pursuing enemy. Not only did they surround nearly a regiment of defeated soldiers, but they also caused heavy casualties to the enemy in the ambush.  Preliminary statistics show that thousands of Far East government troops were wiped out. Of course, more than half of them were killed or injured at the feet of their own people. For this problem, the Red Army commanders and fighters naturally took the credit for themselves.

    "Don't worry about the small group of fleeing enemies. Order the troops to attack the large enemy forces. You must not give the enemy a chance to breathe. We must drive them down the Ob River completely!"

    Frunze did not show too much excitement about this victory. On the contrary, he immediately ordered his troops to give up pursuing the enemy's small forces. Instead, he squeezed all his strength into a fist and struck hard at the enemy's most important places.  He wants to see a complete victory, a great victory that completely annihilates the enemy's main force!  Use this victory to bring good news to the Soviet Union, Moscow, and Comrade Stalin. We also use this victory to ensure Serov's initiative in the entire campaign and avert the humiliation of retreating to Serov from the Far East.

    In this well-planned counterattack, Frunze used almost 90% of the forces at hand. Except for leaving one division as a reserve, he invested nearly 90,000 troops in it, and also used a pitifully small air force and fundamental forces.  Immature tank.  It can be said that Frunze made a huge bet. Once his air force and tanks are ineffective, the Frunze Front, not to mention annihilating the enemy, may even form a stalemate with the pursuing opponents, thereby losing fighter opportunities and even losing ground.  As a result, his main force was once again bitten by the enemy.

    Fortunately, his bet finally won.  From this point of view, we cannot but say that Frunze is worthy of being one of the best generals in the Soviet Union.  His bold command and flexible movement tactics, coupled with his ability to quickly learn lessons and learn his opponent's fighting methods, made his counterattack successful.

    From the perspective of actual losses, the losses of the Far East government forces were not too great. Air strikes, strafing, shelling, and tank attacks meant that the number of casualties in the hands of the enemy was only a few hundred.  However, such three-dimensional tactics, coupled with Frunze's careful planning, instantly destroyed their morale and courage. At this time, how could the Far East government forces dare to turn back?  Under the pursuit of the Red Army, I ran back desperately, with only one thought in my mind, and that was to run to a safe area as soon as possible.

    In the camp on the west bank of the Ob River, the Baron is getting ready to go. The news came from the front an hour ago that the vanguard has once again bit the enemy's tail. It is expected that they will catch up to Khant soon and annihilate the enemy.

    After receiving the news, the Baron was extremely happy. He ordered the troops to speed up and at the same time personally led an infantry division that had just arrived on the west bank to set off in the direction of Khanty.

    Just when he had gathered his troops and set out, a few kilometers away from the camp, he suddenly heard bursts of gunfire in front of him. The somewhat surprised Baron quickly asked people to see what was going on in front of him.

    Ten minutes later, the people who had just been sent ran back with panic on their faces, shouting: "It's not good! It's not good, Your Excellency! The forward troops encountered an ambush, the entire army collapsed, and the Soviet Red Army has already attacked!"

    "What! How is this possible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" The baron's eyes suddenly popped out, he grabbed the opponent's collar and shouted: "You bastard! Dare to shake the morale of the army? Believe it or not, I will kill you."  you!"

    "Your Excellency! It's absolutely true, Your Excellency!" Seeing that the baron had already taken out his guns, the man turned pale with fear and stammered: "The Soviet Red Army used aircraft and tanks. Our troops lacked heavy equipment and could not resist them.  Can't hold back. Now the defeated troops are very close to us, and behind us are the enemy's large forces chasing us. Your Excellency retreat quickly! If we are scattered by the defeated troops, our entire army will be finished!"

    "Plane? Tank? Youyouare talking nonsense!" The Baron was so angry that his face was twisted. The Soviets, who were as poor as beggars, had planes and tanks?  Isn't this a joke?  If they have such advanced weapons, can they be beaten like this by Chinese allies?  This must be fake!  right!  It must be fake!  If this guy makes trouble, he is a member of the Soviet Union. He uses this method to deceive himself in an attempt to give the enemy a chance to evacuate safely.

    The fiery baron was about to shoot the spy on the spot, butAt this moment, a buzzing sound came from the sky. The baron and the people around him couldn't help but look up. They were stunned when they saw it, because three planes appeared in the sky, and these planes were obviously allies with China.  The difference is that it looks more like the aircraft from the time of the European War.

    "Could it be what he said is true?" The Baron's heart suddenly sank. Unlike ordinary soldiers, he was a senior general. He had seen this kind of aircraft as early as the European War. It was indeed a product of the Tsarist era.  Although the appearance was larger and some parts had been changed, he recognized it at a glance.  (To be continued.
