Kovalev took the remaining 10,000 people and fled toward the north in embarrassment.
Looking at the embarrassed Russian army, Kovalev felt as if he had eaten dog shit at this time. Maybe he would be investigated soon.
The vast Russian army retreated towards the north, and only a few vehicles could move forward quickly. Seeing these great Russian warriors looking disgraced, Kovalev felt very uncomfortable.
Buzz~
Sudden!
With his sharp ears, he heard the roar of the engine!
That's not the sound of a truck!
"Hurry and avoid! Enemy plane! Enemy plane!"
"Disperse quickly!!"
The ghostly Figure 2 bomber suddenly emerged from the clouds, surrounded by a dozen of the extremely fast Devil fighter jets seen in Cullen.
The queue of the Russian army began to become chaotic, and many people rushed around, but the chaotic crowd made it difficult for them to escape.
With the arrival of Figure 2, aerial bombs continued to fall densely towards the Russian army in the sky. This was simply a massacre! !
Countless Russian troops fled in all directions, vehicles were blown over, and Russian troops were crushed. Some Russian troops were lucky enough to be at the center of the explosion and instantly turned into blood mist, while some were further away and were cut in half by the shrapnel from the explosion. Break! !
The battlefield is not as glamorous as in movies and TV shows. The real battlefield is much crueler.
After the Russian troops fled in all directions, the idea of using aerial bombs to deal with the enemy was a bit wasteful, because a single aerial bomb might not be able to kill a single Russian soldier. So the pilots started to fire with their cannons. Since there were P51 escorts, they just let go and started firing.
The Russian troops fled northward desperately. From time to time, GAZ trucks were blown up and burned into a ball. Shouts, screams, and machine gun fire continued to echo on this grassland.
In Kulun, the Russian army walked out of the fortifications with their hands raised.
Looking at the Chinese soldiers standing aside with fierce eyes and cold expressions, these Russian soldiers looked at each one curiously. They thought that the Chinese soldiers were the kind with long braids.
The Russian army walked towards the outside of the city, where there were special troops to send them to Guisui.
Along the way, the surrendering Russian troops saw the miserable state of many Russian troops. They were burned, crushed by tanks, their eyes were rolled around, only their necks were left, and the sky was full of flies mixed with the smell of blood and barbecue.
Even the soldiers escorting the prisoners found it difficult to accept it, and some squatted in the corner and vomited.
Seeing this scene, the surrendering Russian soldiers' legs trembled. Before, they must not have been afraid of death. But now, after seeing such a tragic death, they feel that surrendering is normal, and there is nothing wrong with surrendering if they cannot defeat them.
In fact, they don't want to die in such a painful way. When they walked out of Kulun, they saw the densely packed Chinese tanks outside the city. The huge body, green camouflage, and the terrifying 100mm tank gun made the surrendering Russian army even more shocked.
When did a Chinese army actually lead the world? Look at this tank. No wonder the 45mm tank gun can't penetrate it. The steel plate is almost as thick as a fist! ! How terrifying! China can actually design such a powerful tank.
This was not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing was that when they boarded the vehicle transporting prisoners and drove towards Guisui, they saw an endless queue of trucks. This shocked the Russian army who had just surrendered. Is it possible? Are you going back to Russia? That’s not right, Russia doesn’t have such a powerful army!
The battle to regain Kulun ended quickly, and the Russian army fled to Darkhan in the north, where the main force of the 17th Army was located, about 70,000 to 80,000 people.
The Russian army suffered heavy losses in this battle. If the mission of the Sixth Army was not to recover Mongolia, Yue Zhen even wanted to attack Chita, but this was not possible.
Not to mention anything else, the follow-up troops did not catch up. Moreover, Cullen's Russian army only had two independent divisions and one main Russian division. The Russian army lost no more than 10,000 people.
It didn’t break the bones, and the journey from Kulun to Darkhan also needed fuel and other support, which all needed to be mobilized from Suiyuan. Do you really think that these oil tigers don’t eat or drink anything?
Secondly, the strategic goal of the Northwest Autonomous Government is to recover Mongolia and the Northeast.
The war must be fought slowly. After the Russians suffered such a loss, who do they really think Kovalev is?
As soon as the people returned, they immediately dug trenches, continuously mobilized artillery from the rear, fired cannons, and other measures. If Cullen hadn't been poorly prepared and wasn't an elite main force, how could he have retreated so easily.
Those two independent divisions are said to be independent divisions, but they are actually a mixed Mongolian and Russian army that has been stationed around Kulun. Only then did they react in time, otherwise I would have outrun him to death with my two legs!
Of course, our army suffered some losses in this siege, but they were very slight. The losses were about a thousand people, mostly caused by street fighting. Some places were too small for the Tiger to enter at all, and there was no armor protection. Ordinary soldiers can be easily shot.
But relatively speaking, it is already very good. 40% of the casualties in this battle were at the enemy's forward positions, 30% were inside the city, and the other 30% were on the way of the Russian army's retreat.
About 17,800 Russian troops were killed and fled. Many of the Russian troops who fled fled deep into the grassland. I don’t know what this group of people thought. They might as well be prisoners if they ran into the grassland.
There are a lot of wolves on the grassland. If you run into the depths of the grassland and have nothing to eat or drink, and are so hungry that you feel dizzy, you will eventually become the nourishment of the grassland.
The 5th Armored Corps fought very bravely in this battle. The impact of the armored troops in the plains really taught the Russian army a lesson, especially in street fighting. The tanks cooperated with the infantry to advance, and it was almost difficult for the Russian army to fight back.
The surrendered Russian troops were entertained by our army and quickly handed over some information about the Russian 17th Army. The weapons, ammunition and fuel of the Russian troops on the front line simply did not meet the plan before the war started. With only 40% preparation, the soldiers were short of bullets.
It's nothing for a Russian soldier to say this. Many Russian prisoners have complained about insufficient logistics supplies.
It seems that Lao Maozi's dream of being an industrial power is not yet ready. The Russian prisoners also revealed that the army has a newly formed tank regiment and a batch of new tanks. However, the current Russian army no longer looks down on the T26. Judging from the appearance , Tiger style is much more handsome than it, you can tell who is stronger and who is weaker at a glance.
The battle report of the 6th Group Army was quickly submitted to the military headquarters.
"Well, yes, Culun was successfully recaptured, but the main force of the Russian army still exists and is a big threat. I heard from Wang Yong that there were many fools among the Russian troops captured from Culun this time."
"Yes, Commander, Commander Wang said that although the enemy's tactics are good, their overall strength is far behind ours. When the mg42's gunfire rang out, the Russian army couldn't even raise their heads."
