    "Help!" "It's on fire!"  Along with the shrill shouts, countless people ran frantically from their homes. By this time, the raging flames had already burned over.  Along with the strong wind, the flames flew everywhere, igniting one house after another, and the fire mercilessly devoured everything.  The residents of Akdoka suffered unprecedented disasters. Planes flew over the city from time to time, and bombs fell on their heads like hailstones.  The fire caused by the explosion was raging in the city, and there was no way to stop it. Countless people could only run around, and what they wanted most was to rush out.  However, various intersections have been under martial law, and a large number of Russian soldiers have machine guns pointed at these people.  "Quick, let us out, we don't want to wait to die in the city." "Go back!" Facing the people's demands, the Russian commander's eyes widened, and he said viciously: "You bastards, just get out of here!"  Go back, don¡¯t challenge my patience, or I¡¯ll kill you.¡± ¡°Kill me if you can, you damn bandits, get the Russians out of our land!¡± A middle-aged man suddenly shouted, desperate.  He rushed towards the Russian army, getting closer and closer to the Russians.  Suddenly the gun spit out tongues of fire, and countless blood splashes suddenly appeared on the big man's chest. His chest was shattered and he fell heavily to the ground.  Seeing this man¡¯s tragic death, the other Central Asians couldn¡¯t bear it anymore and rushed towards the Russian army crazily. If they stayed, they would be killed by bombs or beaten to death.  These people suddenly forgot their past humility and cowardice.  He rushed towards the Russians desperately.  At this time, the Russian machine guns finally fired, and the people who led the attack were killed one after another.  Kill people.  The Russians never show mercy. The battle has been fought to death, and they cannot let these people escape.  Not only will they disrupt order, they may even bring the situation in the city out.  You must know that Central Asians and Russians are not of the same mind.  The sound of gunfire gradually weakened, the smoke dissipated, and a pungent smell of blood rushed into the nostrils.  There were hundreds of corpses piled up on the ground, and some people were lucky enough not to die.  "shenyin" who is in pain.  After some killings, the Russians gradually calmed down and drove these people back.  Brutal killings are the seeds of hatred. The eyes of these people are full of poisonous light, staring at the Russian soldiers.  Just as they were escorting these people, a messenger suddenly ran over panting and said with a change of expression: "It's bad. The Chinese are coming. Go and defend!" The Russian soldiers heard this.  , they were also shocked. They really couldn't imagine how it could come so fast. Didn't they just break through Alashankou?  How come we are here in the blink of an eye? Could it be that the Chinese have fallen from the sky?  But no matter how confused they were, the order from their superiors had been issued, and the Russian soldiers rushed into the front line of the battle in a panic.  At this time they encountered the most terrifying scene in their lives.  On the distant horizon, streaks of dust appeared.  Blocking out the sky and the sun, accompanied by a rumbling roar.  Huge tanks rushed towards them.  The high muzzle is full of power, wild, fierce, and majestic, all blended together.  In the face of this modern war machine, any resistance is humble.  The Russians are also equipped with tanks, but they pale in comparison to the tanks in front of them.  Their view is not wrong. The main tank used by Zhang Henian this time is already the second-generation main battle tank newly developed by China.  The basic tonnage of the initial tank was between 10 and 15 tons, which was similar to the T26.  The tonnage of the second-generation tank has been increased to about 27 tons, which is almost twice the size.  The larger tank means that it can be equipped with a larger caliber. This batch of tanks have been equipped with a 30 -fold diameter 76 main gun.  Looking around the world, their tank main guns generally stay between 40 and 50 mm. China has undoubtedly taken a big step ahead of schedule.  And China also took the lead in adopting the inclined deck, Christie suspension system, and 50 cm wide oversized tracks.  In addition, China and Germany also engaged in joint research and development and jointly developed a 12-cylinder diesel engine with a horsepower of 400, which was also outstanding among its contemporaries.  Relying on the powerful engine, the new tank can reach 40 kilometers on the road and 32 kilometers per hour off-road.  From all aspects, the new generation of tanks is already quite close to the Soviet T34.  There is no doubt that the T34 was also a well-designed tank in the early days of World War II.  And in the super attrition war between major powers, Soviet-made tanks proved their strength with their record.  The new tank was actually launched in 2023The prototype was already in place, and it began to be equipped on a small scale among the troops.  ??Obviously, this kind of tank that leads the world by a large margin is not so easy to produce. Problems continue to arise during testing, and they are constantly fed back to the military factory, and then continuous improvements are made.  For example, the 60-degree sloped armor was initially used, but was eventually changed to 45 degrees, which enhanced the ability to rebound artillery shells and also enhanced defense.  Of course, the biggest improvement is the issue of comfort. Early tanks could torture the driver to death, which shows how bad this tank is.  Soviet-made tanks are also notorious in this regard. Don't think that comfort is a small thing. It is directly related to the ability of armored forces to continue fighting.  China also worked hard, and finally this type of tank was finalized in 2026 and was named the Snow Leopard tank.  After two years, the main force of the Guards Division has basically been redressed.  The Central Asian battlefield was the debut of the "Snow Leopard". Not long after the war started, the soldiers developed a strong love for this tank.  First of all, the Snow Leopard is comfortable and has excellent off-road performance. Facing the yellow sand of Central Asia, the Snow Leopard feels like walking on flat ground. The 50 cm wide tracks provide strong support and can easily cross sand dunes one after another without worrying about getting stuck.  ??And the 76mm main gun is fatal to any Russian fortifications, as long as it is directly hit by an artillery shell.  All fortifications will be knocked to pieces.  The outstanding defensive capabilities can easily block shrapnel and even small-caliber artillery.  Strong firepower.  Fast, well-protected, and relatively comfortable, this is the perfect fighter.  More than two hundred "Snow Leopards" rushed to the forefront of the army.  When these tanks appeared outside Akdoka, the Russian soldiers guarding them were frightened. The tank soldiers did not hesitate at all. They drove their steel chariots and rushed over quickly.  Shells exploded all around the Russians.  Death has come to them.  More and more Russians were killed. With one charge, the position was cut into several sections. The follow-up troops divided and surrounded them, and then quickly eaten them.  There was originally a brigade of Russian troops guarding Akdoka, but within two hours, thousands of them were killed.  In addition, more than 2,000 people fled, and the rest became prisoners of the Chinese army.  Until they were caught, these people were still in a daze. They had no idea that they would be so vulnerable and had no ability to resist the Chinese army.  But Zhang Henian didn't care about them.  Speed ??is the life of an armored soldier. Before Akdoka could completely settle down, he immediately organized his army and headed for the next target.  The Chinese army entered Central Asia, and a huge boulder fell into the water.  A huge wave was set off, affecting the entire Central Asia.  People from all walks of life are ready to take action.  As early as the Han Dynasty, Central Asia had in-depth exchanges with China. In fact, the history of Central Asia is much longer than that of Russia.  Many powerful countries have appeared here. Even after the Tsar forcibly annexed this place, resistance from various places has never stopped.  Especially after 1916, the Basmachi movement emerged here. The so-called Basmachi means bandits.  There has always been a tradition of plunder in Central Asia. In order to facilitate suppression, the Tsar called the troublemakers Basmachi.  After the Russian Revolution, this force quickly turned into a national independence movement. They tried to split from Russia, regain their former glory, and establish their own country.  Their constant back-and-forth struggle with the Russians, with both sides winning and losing, lasted even more than ten years.  As Russia becomes stronger and stronger, the country becomes more and more stable, and the intensity of its strikes becomes more and more shocking.  They can only retreat to hilly mountains and desert areas to protect their own safety.  Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they have failed, and even the British, their former financial backers, are not willing to help them.  At this time of life and death, the Chinese suddenly extended a helping hand.  Just after Yang Yuting inspected Xinjiang, he determined the policy of supporting the national movements in Central Asia and using these people to consume Russia's energy and pave the way for China's actions.  China's main supporter is Junaid Khan. He is a prince in Central Asia and has a large number of troops. Originally, they were not from the same group as Basmachi, who was a bandit. However, after having a common enemy, Junaid Khan  Dehan gradually merged with Basmachi.  After receiving funding from China, Junaid Khan quickly bought a large number of Basmachi leaders, and his army expanded rapidly to more than 20,000 people.  And after receiving arms provided by China, their equipment has been greatly improved.  These fierce bandits have long been eager to try. The Chinese army has entered Central Asia, like a spark, completely igniting a pile of dry firewood.  The bandits who had retreated into the deserts and mountains were once again on the move.?Come out.  Because Russia¡¯s forcible promotion of agricultural collectivization has had a huge impact on local people¡¯s livelihood, many people are dissatisfied with Russia, but they just dare to be angry.  Now that there is a leader, these people sided with Basmachi without hesitation.  Junaid Khan's team expanded by more than half in just a few days.  ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????These bandit armed forces will not have much effect in a head-on confrontation, but they are enough to cause chaos for the Russians.  They raided trade routes, massacred Russian people, and even attacked local governments.  As long as members of the majority party are caught, they will be killed without hesitation and create intense terror.  After a lot of massacres, Junaid Khan's troops controlled the area from the Pamir Plateau in the east, to the Caspian Sea coast in the west, and to the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers in the north.  This region is about one-third the size of Central Asia.  Although the terrain is rugged, it is the commanding heights of the entire Central Asia. It controls Central Asia to the west, looks to Afghanistan and South Asia to the south, approaches Iran and other places to the west, and extends outwards from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the east.  This area is at the heart of Asia and has unparalleled value.  Of course the Russians were not willing to fall into the hands of a group of bandits, but what could they do!  The Russians still had bigger troubles. After Zhang Henian occupied Akdoka, they briefly rested and then began to move north to seize more land.  Amidst the long stretches of yellow sand, China¡¯s steel army is advancing rapidly.  Wherever they passed, the Russians were fleeing in panic.  "Sorry, good news!" Yang Yuting took the battle report and walked up to Zhang Tinglan excitedly. He said with a smile: "Zhang Henian got a good start in Central Asia." Zhang Tinglan was still looking at the battle report from the Far East just now.  , the Russian offensive became more and more fierce, the pressure on China was very huge, but there was no army on hand, Zhang Tinglan was also a little worried.  At this time, with the news of victory, Zhang Tinglan seemed to have received a shot in the arm and hurriedly said with a smile: "How is the situation in Central Asia?" "It's better than we thought. The Russians' power in Central Asia is quite weak. They  They didn't expect that we could launch an attack from here. Zhang Henian and the others had entered Central Asia for five days, killing more than 20,000 captured Russian troops, and they had captured all the Russian troops on the border.  We will seize Sayak and Balkhash through railway maneuvers, and if everything goes well, Central Asia will fall into our hands within half a month."  "How is the logistics situation?" The armored force looks majestic, but in fact it is a monster that devours supplies, especially since not only the armored force, but also the air force must keep up.  Two to three hundred tanks and nearly a thousand other vehicles are moving every day, and they are like tigers swallowing oil.  To a certain extent, the war in Central Asia is a logistical war, so Zhang Tinglan asked this question.  "Don't worry. Since the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway was built, with our support capabilities, we can maintain the combat needs of at least 100,000 people. Although there is no railway connection from Xinjiang to Central Asia, we have recruited a large number of civilians. Especially  The people in Central Asia hate the Russians so much that they actually take the initiative to help us. This is unexpected. With their help, the logistical pressure has been reduced a lot. " "Do the people in Central Asia really hate Russia so much?  No, it¡¯s just that many people were robbed of their land. They are all local dignitaries with some appeal. There are also some religious elders who are also dissatisfied with the Russians because of their beliefs. " Zhang Tinglan nodded.  He showed a smile: "Since the people's support is available, we might as well light another fire. Linge, go and draw up a list of Central Asian princes, canonize these people immediately, and encourage them to stand up against Russia."
