The surrender of the Ottoman Empire led to major changes in the Volga River battlefield.

The Russians, however, have not yet realized this.

After all, the Ottoman Empire is thousands of miles away. No matter how you look at it, it seems that it has nothing to do with the war here.

It is precisely because of this negligence that the Russians paid a heavy price.

The reason is that after the surrender of the Ottoman Empire, the Bosporus Strait was completely opened to the ocean-going fleet, allowing this powerful force to rush into the Black Sea and provide strong support to the army.

Before the ocean-going fleet can join the battlefield, the situation of the Wehrmacht is not good.

In particular, the connection between the National Defense Forces and the Liangyue Department is very fragile.

The National Defense Forces can only temporarily build some small boats to provide supplies to the Liang Yue Department, but the efficiency and volume can be imagined.

This caused Liang Yue to be completely unable to use his hands and feet during the battle, for fear that the weapons and ammunition would be consumed too much and would not be replenished.

Now his army is becoming more and more dependent on firearms, and if he returns to the combat mode of cold weapons, there will definitely be big problems.

The strength of the Wehrmacht on the Black Sea is not strong enough, which also makes the Russians very arrogant.

The Russians attacked everywhere on the sea, constantly harassing the supply lines of the Wehrmacht, and causing great trouble.

The National Defense Forces and the Liang Yue Department could not establish close ties, and the Liang Yue Department could not open up the situation in Crimea, which seriously affected the National Defense Forces' operations.

Now that the ocean-going fleet has entered the sea, the situation is completely different.

Relying on extremely powerful force, the ocean-going fleet swept across the entire sea in just half a month and completely eliminated the Russian forces.

The Russians can't go into the sea with a piece of board, otherwise they will be sunk.

Without the harassment of the Russians, the ocean-going fleet has a strong transportation capacity, which allows the Wehrmacht to have more choices in tactics.

"We don't need to spend time with the Russians in Volgograd. They want our army to fight a siege battle that consumes a lot of money. I just won't let them do so. Riding the Fourth Division, I give you a task to go around with the help of the ocean-going fleet. Go to the back of the Russian army, go straight to Lugansk, and cut off the Russian army's logistics supply line for me."

Zuo Xuanyan looked at the map and had a very bold idea.

She has a brand-new understanding of the speed of war, and her eyes are never limited to one city or one place.

In this regard, she is Zuo Menggeng's best student, always willing to create momentum on the battlefield.

Use power to overwhelm people, force opponents into desperation, and win.

Of course, such a tactic requires a strong army to support it.

If the military's quality, force, and cohesion are not good enough, it will never be able to do such a thing.

It just so happens that the National Defense Forces is the most powerful army in the world today, possessing the most professional military qualities, and can support Zuo Xuanyan's adventurous actions.

Chang Kaiyuan was very happy to receive the task of interspersed and outflanked on a large scale, but he also had concerns.

"We promise to complete the mission, but our back road must be guaranteed, otherwise the severe material consumption will seriously affect our combat effectiveness."

The generals of the Wehrmacht are very sensible and will not be blindly interested in military exploits.The most important thing is to be able to make meritorious service and to be able to preserve oneself.

Zuo Xuanyan naturally wouldn't let the Fourth Cavalry Division take risks alone.

"After you, the Seventh Division will also land in Mariupol to receive the Donetsk line."

Since there is a helper behind him, Chang Kaiyuan has no objection.

"Commander, wait for our good news."

The Russian troops guarding Rostov made common sense mistakes.

They thought that they had to defend the Don River defense line and block the front of the Wehrmacht to complete the task.

Little did they realize that the sea to the west would be their lifeline.

Under the escort of the ocean-going fleet, the fully loaded fourth cavalry division set off first.

In order to achieve the effect of the surprise attack, the Liang Yue Department also made tactical deception cooperation.

Liangyue's attack on Zaporoz caused Rugromezin's Russian First Army to ignore the direction of Mariupol.

When the ocean-going fleet appeared on the coast, it was too late.

Under the powerful artillery fire of the ocean-going fleet, the Fourth Cavalry Division successfully completed the landing.

After going ashore, Chang Kaiyuan judged the situation, and instead of rushing to Donetsk immediately, he swung his army westward and went straight behind the Russian First Army.

Liang Yue got the news in advance and immediately launched a full-line attack on the Russian army.

Luge Romezin also thought that this was a good opportunity to eliminate Liang Yue, so he invested all his troops.

Just when the two sides were fighting inextricably, the Fourth Cavalry Division suddenly appeared behind the Russian army.

The Russian army, which has been fighting for ten days in a row, has long been exhausted, its ammunition is almost exhausted, its food is seriously insufficient, and the battalion is full of wounded soldiers.

In this case, being swept by a flood of more than 5 cavalry, even if Luge Luomeijin is a big Luo Jinxian, there is no way to recover.

The Russian First Army collapsed without incident.

On the way to flee to Dnipro, the Russian army was frantically killed by the Fourth Cavalry Division and Liangyue cavalry, and the corpses were scattered all over the field.

Even Rugromezin died under the random guns of the Fourth Cavalry Division, causing the Russian army to completely lose command, and eventually even Dnipro was lost.

The remaining Russian army hastily retreated to Kharkov, with less than 1 troops left, so they could only quickly ask Moscow for help.

After helping the Liang Yue Department to agree to the Russian First Army, Chang Kaiyuan implemented the established plan.

In the process of chasing the Russian army, the Fourth Cavalry Division suddenly turned to Igyum, cutting off the connection between Luhansk and the rear.

It happened that the [-]th Division also joined the battlefield at this time.

Zheng Chenggong took the lead and commanded the No.14 regiment to capture Donetsk after a bloody battle.

Lugansk faced pressure from two directions at once, so it could only quickly ask for help from friendly forces.

The Russian army defending Rostov was shocked when they heard that the rear was dangerous. Just as they were about to send troops back for reinforcements, the Wehrmacht's attack arrived.

Under the personal command of Zuo Xuanyan, the Fourth Front Army concentrated its efforts to break through the Rostov line of defense.

The roar of [-] cannons gave the Russian army an unforgettable feeling in his life.

The entire Rostov was engulfed in flames and steel storms, all the fortifications were razed to the ground, and countless Russians were wailing, but there was nothing they could do.

The attack of the [-] National Defense Forces was like a storm from the very beginning, and it did not give the Russians a chance to breathe.

Faced with an unprecedented attack by the National Defense Forces, the rear was cut off, and the Russian army in the direction of Rostov was in a desperate situation.

Brigadier General Asimov in Volgograd got the military information, and he knew that things were serious.

While reporting to Marshal Popovnia, he ordered the Russian army under his command to launch an offensive in an attempt to relieve the pressure on Rostov.

However, although there was only the No.11 Division of the National Defense Forces in front of him, the No.11 Division, which was on the defensive, caused the Russian army to bruise its head.He paid the price of 5 casualties, but failed to break even the first line of defense.

The powerful firepower of the National Defense Forces made the Russian army unforgettable, and aroused deep fear.

A month later, news of the fall of Luhansk came, and the Russian army suddenly discovered that they had been surrounded.
