Volume 1 126 Die Standing

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Because of the fierce fighting in this open area and the addition of more soldiers from the Fifth Agricultural Division, several Soviet soldiers were immediately knocked to the ground.  However, the harsh gunshots and shining fireworks told the two armies on both sides of the border, which were also in a state of high tension: there was no way out, the fighting had begun, and they had no choice but to keep fighting.

    Li Chen¡¯s eyes were a little out of focus, and his expression looked blank. He had palpitations at the moment when the person died, but now, he seems a little at a loss.  In fact, most soldiers are the same as him. Although everyone practices hard and learns technical and tactical knowledge, no one has ever thought that one day they will have to fight the enemy on the battlefield with a gun.

    Faced with this situation, Master Liu of the Fifth Agricultural Division did not become at a loss, but he had very few cards to play.  Because they were eager to collect the fragments of the spacecraft, what they brought were basically small weapons such as automatic rifles, and then some loaded vehicles.  Although the division commander ordered some soldiers to dig sand and build trenches as soon as they arrived here, the geology in this area was too soft, and even after digging for a long time, no reliable enough defenses were dug out.

    Li Chen subconsciously clenched the steel gun in his hand. The leaders of various grassroots units were already gathering their soldiers. In the trenches with a limited number and depth, they held their breath and concentrated on facing the next wave of attacks that might come from the Soviets.  As for the Soviet soldiers who were killed just now, the fragments they collected from China and the rifles and ammunition in their hands were taken away - the weapons used by both sides were common.

    "Why are there no movements from the Soviets?" Li Chen was not assigned to the trench, but used the board of an unloaded animal-drawn vehicle as a cover.

    Not long after this thought crossed his mind, suddenly there was the rumble of a motor not far away, and someone said in horror: "It's a tank!"

    Naturally, the soldiers didn't know what kind of organized troops the Soviets were opposite, but their division commander knew clearly. The one facing them was a mechanized division directly under the Turkish Military Region, and behind them there were entire troops from the Central Asian Military Region.  32nd Army.  Compared with the strength of the Soviets, their strength was low and even terrifying.

    But Commander Liu had no choice. The order given to him by his superiors was to collect and protect these spacecraft fragments at all costs. He could not just evacuate.  Or even if he gives up now and leads his soldiers to retreat back to Bole, the Soviet armored soldiers with tracks and wheels can push them much faster than them, and they are still a dead end.

    Commander Solinsky, who commanded this Soviet mechanized division, looked with a hint of contempt at the group of Chinese troops opposite who did not even have heavy firepower.  He didn't know that he was facing only a reserve farming division, but in his opinion, even if he was facing an elite Chinese mechanized division, he couldn't resist being crushed by the T-64 tanks driven by their division's armored troops.

    "Damn, in order to protect some weird things, we are not even allowed to use artillery." The elite troops led by Solinsky not only have a regiment of nearly a hundred T-64 tanks, but also a 2S3 152mm  Self-propelled artillery, these self-propelled artillery are Solinsky's treasures, Solinsky even regards them as more important than the T-64.  In addition to these self-propelled artillery, the entire division is also equipped with towed howitzers, some recoilless rifles and mortars. Even when facing the US First Cavalry Division, Solinsky did not feel that the overall firepower would be much weaker.

    Because the battlefield is actually an area where spacecraft fragments are scattered, orders from the top clearly require Solinski to be careful when doing things to avoid damaging those fragments, and this means that before the armored troops go into battle, repeated artillery fire is necessary.  It can't be done. Fortunately, the opponent's Chinese army does not have much heavy firepower, so even the T-64's horizontal push seems overwhelming.

    In addition, the T-64 tank is equipped with night vision devices, and the artillery wants to carry out accurate strikes in the dark. It is not easy for fire control to achieve this. Solinsky can only comfort himself and use artillery at night to wash  The ground is inefficient.

    The tank T-64, relied on by the Soviet Union as the core of its armored forces, was domineering and majestic in front of the nearly defenseless 5th Agricultural Division.  The soldiers raised their 56-style or 81-bar in vain. They could only make a series of noises on its excellent composite armor shell, but they could not stop this guy from advancing arrogantly.

    The Soviet soldier operating a machine gun on the roof of the car shouted "Ula" and shot at any Chinese soldier he could see.  Most of the soldiers chose to hide in the trenches or use various available bunkers to cover themselves. If that was not possible, they would lie down.  The disparity in firepower made the Fifth Agricultural Division feel restrained at every turn from the start of the battle. The T-64 tanks that broke through the national border, with the cooperation of some infantry, rushed forward and continuously broke through the three surrounding areas of the Fifth Agricultural Division.  Road trenches.

    The division commander himself had red eyes. Although he couldn't see the blood of the soldiers behind him, he could see the figures who had no hesitation and used their flesh and blood to stop the oncoming T-64 tanks.  Even under such circumstances, the reservistsThey did not give up the resistance. I saw a veteran in his thirties, who kept firing at the tank. His comrades who were acting with him fell beside him repeatedly, but he still gritted his teeth and attracted the attention.  He held the tank's attention until he turned over and jumped into the trench next to him. The tank followed him and rolled into the trench. This trench was dug very wide. The T-64 supporting the turret accidentally fell into the trench.  The front end fell into the trench, and the heavy tracks directly ran over the legs of the veteran who had just hidden in the trench.

    The veteran did not scream at all. Instead, he held the bundle of grenades that had been prepared and pulled it directly. With his body, he arched between the softest tracks of the tank - the fatal underbelly of the armored monster.  A huge explosion came from the trench. This T-64 became the first Soviet tank to be damaged in the battle. More than a dozen soldiers paid for this victory with their own casualties.  Just this insignificant scene on the battlefield is not enough to change the current situation.  More and more T-64s rushed out in the deep darkness, like bloodthirsty monsters. They often did not fire, but fired two machine guns at the soldiers of the 5th Agricultural Division who had little protection.  When it encountered some kind of bunker, the 125mm smoothbore cannon showed its face, and with a bang, everything in front of it was blown to pieces.

    Li Chen was shaking all over, holding his rifle, and rolled into a trench. It was the first time he faced such a bloody battlefield, and he saw the familiar figure in the past turned into a pool of blood in the gunfire, and his whole body  Falling into uncontrollable spasms, he wanted to fight back, but he felt that his body was no longer under his control, and even the rifle he was holding was shaking.

    "Why is this happening - why is this happening?" Li Chen shouted in his heart, and no one could answer him.  This conflict broke out so suddenly. Even though it had been anticipated, few people really thought that China and the Soviet Union were going to engage in a war.

    The division commander of the Fifth Agricultural Division was so blind that he almost rushed to fight with his soldiers. However, it was impossible for the division headquarters to be without him at this time. He quickly found the phone and reported to his superiors, and just before he made the call,  In five minutes, the highest military command had been transferred from the Xinjiang Military Region, where the deployment was unfavorable, to Qi Yiming.

    Qi Yiming took the phone and listened to the trembling report of the commander of the Fifth Agricultural Division. He remained silent and said: "Commander Liu, please immediately gather your troops and retreat towards Wusu. The Eighth Division will be able to meet you immediately. I order  You guys, give up what you¡¯re holding and retreat to the rear.¡±

    ?????????????? Then there was a pause that seemed to be a struggle, "If you cannot withdraw, I authorize you to surrender to the Soviet army."

    Commander Liu called to seek a solution to the problem, but what he didn't expect was a young leader who authorized them to give them a unit with a glorious tradition and a chance to surrender.

    "Chief, I don't know which sector you are in charge of, but in our PLA, there are no cowards who surrender voluntarily. Even if we fight to the last soldier, there are only soldiers of the Fifth Agricultural Division who die standing, and none who kneel to survive.  Soldiers of the Fifth Agricultural Division, you can consider these as my last words!" The call was interrupted and there was a busy signal.

    Qi Yiming was stunned for a moment after the phone was hung up. He pursed his lips and said nothing for a long time.  In his opinion, no matter how valuable this alien spaceship is, it is not more valuable than the tens of thousands of lives of the 5th Agricultural Division. As soon as his 309th Division is in place, it can directly beat the Soviet army to the ground with unparalleled firepower, even if it is  They captured the pieces of the ship, and they could also spend some time breaking them all into actual pieces, leaving the Soviets with nothing.

    But Master Liu, who knew it was absolutely impossible to win and still wanted to resist the torrent of steel with his weak flesh and blood, told him that his so-called smart calculations had never existed in the PLA's code of conduct, even though they were just a team now.  A reserve force.

    Even the crazy Japanese Imperial Army had written rules for surrender, but until thirty years later, the PLA, which was looked down upon and ridiculed by the Western media and military experts, never spoke of the word surrender at any time.  .  Only standing to die, not kneeling to live, struck Qi Yiming hard on his heart. He felt both admirable and resentful at the same time, but no matter what, it seemed that Commander Liu and his soldiers would not  He changed his mind and turned his back to the enemy.

    "It seems that I still underestimated the sense of honor of this army." Qi Yiming sighed in a low voice.

    Liao Huairen understood why Qi Yiming asked for the 5th Agricultural Division to surrender when the situation was desperate. He patted Qi Yiming on the shoulder and said: "No way, this is our army, a somewhat silly but absolutely cute and respectable army. However,  What you should be thinking about now is not this, but how to protect these soldiers and the heavenly property as much as possible. "

    Qi Yiming's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said: "Since the Soviet Union wants to have fun, then I will have fun with them!"
