Chapter 3147 Have to Save
One second the two sides were evenly matched, the next second life and death were decided.Knowing Ivan Hinkle's technical level, when he and his golden eagle were blown up by Gao Changcun, all Soviet Russian pilots were shocked.

"Ivan—how is it possible?!" Shouted Seturev, hardly believing his eyes.Yes, he and Ivan are competitors in the team, and because of this, he knows Ivan's technical and tactical level better than others.And he also knew that despite the fact that Ivan Hinkle always tried to slander the golden eagle in public, secretly, he spent far more time on the golden eagle than Yi Shi.

The death of Ivan Hinkle dealt a great blow to the morale of the Soviets. Seizing this opportunity, Gao Changcun issued another retreat order.Taking advantage of the time when the Soviet Russian pilots were only concerned about shock, Lin Yongjian and the others finally had a chance to get rid of the enemy plane.This time, Lin Yongjian and the others didn't show any pretense anymore. They pulled up the fighter planes one after another, then turned the plane's nose and flew directly to the east.

"If the Chinese want to escape, we must not let them go!"

"Revenge for Ivan! Comrades, catch up!" Seeing that the Chinese were about to flee, the Soviet Russians couldn't care less about being shocked. They shouted and chased after them.

"Lin Yongjian, you go first, Zhang Han, Chang Yishui, Dai Lan, let's play with the Russians!" Among the surviving Chinese fighters, Lin Yongjian's Chinese sturgeon is the slowest and the most likely to be left behind by the Soviets.When Gao Changcun saw this, he changed his order and asked the other three surviving golden eagle pilots with high tactical level to join him in blocking the pursuit of the Soviets.

An air battle that Vatutin regarded as inevitable, but Chinese fighters escaped more than half of the fighters. The news was sent back to Irkutsk, and both Shevakovsky and Vatutin were sad. Among them, Shevakovsky scolded Ivan Hinkle for being muddy and unable to support the wall, and made him the scapegoat for this failure.

A perfect ambush came back without success, which also made Vatutin more vigilant about the air power of the Chinese Far East Army.At this time, Kurtuk, because the Waka Mountain was captured by the Chinese army, the Seventh Army was actually surrounded.It was a matter of the survival of an army group, and Vatutin could no longer remain calm.

The special political system of Soviet Russia determines that the commander-in-chief of a front army like Vatutin can choose to give up part of the defense area or even troops because of tactical needs, but this definitely does not mean that he can sit back and watch an army group be wiped out by the enemy.If this kind of thing really happened, no matter how much credit he made for Soviet Russia before, Stalin would definitely hold him accountable and even send him to a military court.

It was the pilot of a Soviet Russian reconnaissance plane who reported the crisis of the Seventh Army to Vatutin.Because the Chinese army implemented electronic signal shielding in Kurtuk, Lankovsky and Irkutsk have lost contact.In the state of war, it is not normal to lose contact. Coupled with the report from the front-line reconnaissance plane, Vatutin was impatient. He was afraid that Lankovsky and the others would be swallowed up by the Far Eastern Army before night.

"The strength of two full divisions means that the Chinese have three or four times their strength. It should be no problem to stick to it for one day, right?!" Vatutin convinced himself in this way, and at the same time sent an order to Tie Anshan to speed up. Marching speed, must arrive at the battlefield before Kurtuk falls.

"I think we should report to Moscow immediately that the Chinese fighter planes are equipped with rockets, and their performance has completely surpassed our Iraqi type. With the Iraqi type alone, we cannot compete with the Chinese for air supremacy. Without air supremacy, our tanks The troops have no advantage at all," Chief of Staff Rapnev said aside.

Vatutin thought for a while and said: "Of course we have to report, but not now. The most urgent thing now is to rescue the Seventh Army, otherwise, Moscow will definitely think that we are looking for results for failure. By the way, this report It can be handed over to Marshal Zhukov first. If the issue of air supremacy cannot be resolved, the next battle will be difficult. By the way, are the locomotives ready? Has anyone been sent to check along the railway line? Tie Anshan and the others exposed it in advance, maybe It will make the Chinese alert. I am very worried that the Chinese will guess our actions in advance!"

"It's all ready. The Chinese fighter planes can't be dispatched at night. Our armored trains have been patrolling and guarding the railway line. There must be no problem!"

Kurtuk, as the Chinese army captured Mount Vaka, the Seventh Army has actually fallen into the siege of the Chinese army, and lost contact with the radio. At this time, including Lankovsky, the Soviet Union The Russians were in panic all day long, and morale dropped to the extreme.

"Where are the reinforcements? Where are our reinforcements? Comrade Chief of Staff, without reinforcements, we can't hold out for long," the officers on the front line of the Seventh Army called back one after another to ask Lankovsky for reinforcements.However, Lankovsky even filled the front line with the guards directly under the Army Group Headquarters, so how could he provide them with support.

A sense of uneasiness permeated the troops, fearing that the troops would lose control. Gaglin, the political commissar of the Seventh Army, found Lankovsky and suggested to him: "Comrade Lankovsky, this is not going to work. The soldiers have no fighting spirit." Yes. I suggest to release the news immediately, saying that Commander Vatutin has sent reinforcements, and the reinforcements are not far away from us. In addition, I suggest selecting some elite soldiers to form a commando and launch a counterattack against the Chinese once or twice .”

Radio signals were blocked, a fatal blow to the morale of an army alone.As a political worker, Gaglin is obviously more aware of the importance of morale than Lankowski, which is why he put forward these suggestions in such a hurry.

There was nothing Lankovsky could do about losing contact with the Front Army Command, and in order to stabilize the morale of the army, he could only adopt Gaglin's suggestion and personally select more than [-] people to form a commando team and ask them to report to China. The army launched a counterattack, and at the same time, he let out the wind, saying that the reinforcements were on their way and would arrive at the battlefield in two hours at the latest.

The counterattack organized by more than [-] Soviet Russian soldiers is of course impossible to shake the front of the Far Eastern Army. A brigade was strengthened to Waka Mountain to prevent the Soviets from attacking from both sides to penetrate the "gate" of Waka Mountain.Also because a brigade was withdrawn from the frontal battlefield, the offensive strength of the Far Eastern Army was weakened for a while, and it also gave the besieged Soviet Russians a glimmer of hope for survival.
