    At this point, Yang Zhen looked at the map and pondered for a while before saying: "The 23rd Division should continue to be handed over to the aviation force. As for Mongolia, it is better for our ground troops not to enter for the time being. I estimate that the 23rd Division will continue to be handed over to the aviation force."  The Third Division will not stay in Mongolia for a long time. There are probably three reasons why they entered Mongolia. "

    "The main reason besides avoiding our pursuit is probably that we will not pursue and bomb them as long as they enter the Soviet sphere of influence. Since they have this idea, how can we not praise them well?"  Support them and let them know what it means to fight to the death.¡±

    "Tell Fang Ziyi of the aviation force not to have any scruples about the 23rd Division entering Mongolia. What they did when they withdrew from Hailar south, and what they did after they entered Mongolia. In a word, I don't want the 23rd Division to  The Third Division still has so many troops when it withdraws to the Japanese-occupied areas, and we cannot allow so many beasts to have the opportunity to harm our compatriots. "

    "As for the bombing, we help the friendly forces that are currently unable to go south and eliminate the enemies that invade them. What we do is much more authentic than them who add insult to injury. Let Fang Ziyi deploy two fighter groups, one for each light and heavy bomber.  Brigade, transfer to Hailar Airport. Even if they escape to Moscow, as long as our plane has enough range, I will chase them and bomb them."

    After hearing this, Wang Guangyu thought for a while and said: "No. 1, since we have decided to continue the air strangulation battle against the 23rd Division, what about a general attack by the more than 10,000 Mongolian troops who are now surrounded north of the Hailar River?  It can be expanded when the time comes, and we have now compressed it to an enclosure that is more than 500 meters long from east to west and more than 700 meters wide from north to south. "

    "According to the current scale and area of ??the encirclement, we don't need more. As long as two waves of rocket fire cover it, it is estimated that these Mongolian troops are about the same. Do you think it's time to launch a general attack? If we keep delaying like this, we won't be able to do it."  Since things have to be resolved early or late, it¡¯s better to resolve them as soon as possible.¡±

    "These people are north of the Hailar River. They have been unable to be solved for a long time. They have involved too much of our energy. I think we should solve them as soon as possible so that the fifth division can be free as soon as possible to go south to coordinate the actions of the first and fourth divisions. In this way,  We can have more strength on the southern front."

    Speaking of the surrounded Mongolian army, Wang Guangyu showed a contemptuous smile. He has fought many battles in recent years. He has fought against various puppet armies such as the Japanese Kwantung Army, the Manchukuo Army, the Xing'an Army, and the Belarusian Road Guard Army.  This was the first time for Wang Guangyu to see such a garbage, such a rigid and dogmatic army.

    To say they are rubbish does not mean that they fear the enemy like tigers in battle and collapse at the first touch. The courage they show in battle is barely acceptable, but their rigid use of tactics and poor tactical literacy make the Anti-Japanese Alliance participating in the war very difficult.  From top to bottom, the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Division were all dumbfounded.

    After two days of fighting, these Mongolian troops were, in Wang Guangyu's words, a pile of rubbish. With their tactics and fighting methods, it was not called fighting, it was called committing suicide. During these two days of fighting, Wang Guangyu did not feel that they were fighting.  Instead of fighting, it felt like they were herding sheep.

    When these Mongolian armies launch an attack, they will only attack from the front with all their strength. Their offensives are like replicas, basically the same. Whether it is a tank group attack or a mixed infantry and cavalry offensive, they are all aimed at this front.  As for the opponent's flanks, it seems that they don't exist at all. I have never thought of using the complex local terrain to bypass the opponent's blocking positions from the flanks.

    As early as the first encounter with the 1st Cavalry Brigade on its roundabout way, the Mongolian army dispatched armored vehicles to cover the battle. The next day, the Mongolian army, which had suffered a lot, urgently deployed more than 70 additional tanks from Mongolia.  and armored vehicles, as well as dozens of Soviet-made field guns and heavy mortars.

    In the ensuing battle, the Mongolian army concentrated nearly a hundred tanks and armored vehicles, trying to use tank group charges to quickly defeat the Anti-Japanese Alliance and win the alliance under the city. The grand offensive scene was quite similar to that of the Soviet army in Nomonhan.  Momentum, when these nearly a hundred tanks and armored vehicles formed a formation, even the Kwantung Army was inferior to them.

    This plan is good, and if the tactics are used properly, they can be considered good. If this tactic is used well, it can indeed bring a considerable threat to the Fifth Division. After all, under the cover of nearly 10,000 infantry and cavalry, with nearly a hundred tanks and  The attack power, mainly armored vehicles, is a great threat to any army, and no army dares to underestimate it.

    On the battlefield inside the pass, dozens of Japanese tanks and chariots used intensively, under the cover of infantry groups and powerful artillery fire, could even overwhelm a division or even an army position of a poorly equipped miscellaneous army.  A tank and an armored vehicle, even if they are there and not participating in the attack, they look like a big threat

    But when the tanks and armored vehicles of the Mongolian army charged, they were completely different from the Japanese army's tactics of using tanks to cover the charge. The Mongolian army, which had fought several battles with the Soviet army in Nomonhan and the Japanese army, did not learn this.  The other styles of the Soviet army were learned by a hundred percent.

    Maybe they think that these tanks alone are enough to break down any army's defense line, and the infantry can only go up to capture prisoners and seize trophies. Therefore, when these tanks charge, there is no infantry cover at all, and they rely entirely on the tanks and armored vehicles themselves.  Charge.

    And not only was there no infantry cover, even the artillery cover was severely out of touch with the tank group charging ahead. The covering artillery fire here stopped for half an hour before the armored group over there began to gather for an attack. After a day of fighting, their  The artillery company did not change a single gun position.

    In the face of the Fifth Division equipped with a large number of anti-tank weapons, these tanks and armored vehicles without infantry cover are nothing more than piles of iron coffins. The tanks cover the infantry charge, but the tanks themselves also need infantry cover, which is lost.  Covered by infantry or cavalry, coupled with their own rather thin armor, these tanks are almost targets.

    These Soviet tanks and armored vehicles, which were separated from the infantry cover, were protected by the field fortifications of the 5th Division and the 1st Cavalry Brigade. With their exciting and flexible rocket launchers, recoilless rifles, and level fire, their firepower was enough to destroy those thinly armored BA armored vehicles.  , the 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun that was easily knocked into a colander, and the crossfire formed under the cover of artillery, destroyed more than 30 vehicles in just one charge.

    The Mongolian army, which had no capital to compare with the Soviet army, did not learn any lessons. The next time they charged, they still used artillery to cover tanks to charge alone. After suffering a big loss, their fire cover still did not improve at all.  It was still dozens of minutes after the artillery bombardment was completed before the attack was launched slowly.

    Moreover, the large number of infantry and cavalry attached to them were just watching from the back when the tank group suffered a disaster. Do these Mongolian troops think that they can annihilate all their opponents with only artillery shells, or do they think that their tanks are really  They are thick-skinned and fearless of anything. Apart from showing their bravery, the results achieved are hardly worth mentioning.

    According to their tactics and style of play, there is still a good one. No matter how thick the capital is, they can't support such additions. Looking at the destroyed tanks and armored vehicles, although they belong to their current opponents, they are still  Wang Guangyu felt distressed, and cursed these Mongolians in his heart. They were just prodigals, and good things were wasted in vain.

    Although he had only learned some armor tactics in the crash course for senior military commanders, Wang Guangyu also knew that tanks could not be used in this way. How could this be a tank tactic that only involved tanks and armored vehicles in the attack without even sending a single infantryman on the side?  , and those cavalry that can be used in conjunction with tanks, just watching the fun and doing nothing.

    Not to mention that except for the color of their skin and eyes, these Mongolian troops were completely equipped with Soviet goods, and even their military uniforms were no different from the Soviets. The Soviets did not lose hundreds of tanks, so they did not take it seriously at all.  With such abundant capital, these nearly a hundred tanks and armored vehicles are probably all the armored vehicles in the Mongolian army.

    This tank tactic of the Soviets may be suitable for them. Their great cause can withstand destruction, but for the small size of the Mongolian army, which can only rely on outsourced troops for all weapons and equipment, this tactic is not suitable.  Using it is tantamount to a disaster.

    There is basically no coordination between infantry, artillery and tanks. The covering artillery fire over there has been extended. The attacking troops here have begun to gather. The covering artillery fire has completely stopped. The Mongolian army that just launched the attack took their own minerals and livestock products.  Do they have the strength to engage in this kind of war of attrition with the few tanks and armored vehicles they bought back at a high price?

    This quite good tactic of multi-arm coordination between infantry, tank and cavalry turned into a big disaster due to the poor tactics of the Mongolian army. Nearly a hundred tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed and captured.  At this cost, they barely broke through the front-line positions that the Fifth Division voluntarily gave up because of the need to adjust its deployment and shrink its troops.

    After these tanks and armored vehicles were exhausted in lonely charges, and the Iron Sea tactics they launched failed, the infantry remembered to charge under the cover of cavalry. All Mongolian troops were equipped and trained in Soviet style.  The infantry tactics adopted were all based on the Soviet style. They adopted the authentic Soviet attack tactics of discharging multiple batches of skirmisher lines in one go, like a human wave.

    In the attack with the largest investment of troops, more than twenty skirmisher lines were discharged at one time. They shouted "Ula" loudly in their mouths and swarmed forward, trying to use its large number, multiple batches, and even continuous scattered skirmishers.  Soldier line, forcefully defeat the opponentThe position was overwhelmed.

    But the problem is that at the junction of the Daxinganling Mountains and the grasslands, the front is not wide and even somewhat narrow. Facing an army equipped with powerful firepower, rifles, machine guns, and various artillery, how can you create such a person?  When the wave offensive comes, isn't it just to forcefully recruit people to add to the ranks?

    Under the command of the division commander, a reinforced regiment of the 5th Division, which defended the entire front, was waiting for work. It adopted a front-line rifle machine gun, a second-line flat-firing anti-aircraft machine gun, and a 60 mortar, 82 mortar and recoilless rifle.  The mobile artillery group carried out fire strikes on its various skirmisher lines.

    Deploy heavy mortars and divisional mountain artillery firepower in depth to cover its follow-up troops, cut off the connection between its attacking troops and the main force, cut off the tactics of follow-up troops to support the front-line attack, and use intensive machine rifle firepower and artillery fire  , carry out firepower strikes against these Mongolian offensives.
