Chapter 385 On the night of June 29, Zou Guojian, who claimed to have moved to Nalin, issued an attack order to the entire army in Koshgar.
Out of instinct, Klezanovsky felt that under the current good situation, what he and his men should really do is to get out immediately.
However, the idea of General Kaufman brought by Zakharov was to make him strictly manage himself and his subordinates, and not to find any excuses to provoke trouble with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for any reason, and to resolutely implement the Imperial Government's iron-definite peace talks strategy.
Krezanovsky can finally relax completely now.
In Bishkek, he could leisurely taste the red wine that Zakharov brought back from the British in Kokand and sit on the mountain to watch the scenery.
So, like Kaufman, Korpakovsky, Babkov and others, Krezanovsky fell into the trap of Lin Fengxiang and Zuo Zongtang, which had been dug for more than four months, and was bottomless.
What Krezanovsky never imagined was that the reason why Zou Guojian made the series of big scams he showed was so realistic was precisely because the so-called "not doing his job" that Zou Guojian and his soldiers of the Red 14th Army whom he looked down upon the most.
In just four months, with the unremitting efforts of Zou Guojian and all the Red Army officers and soldiers, the jurisdiction of the Red 14th Army had long become a huge red fortress. What Krezanovsky faced was the vast ocean of people's war.
In this case, Krezanovsky could not get a trace of real information.
On the night of June 29, Zou Guojian, who claimed to have moved to Nalin, issued an offensive order to the entire army in Koshgar.
In fact, the reason why Zou Guojian's Red 14th Army's large-scale attack on the Klezanovsky group was chosen one day earlier than he went to "date" with Kaufman himself. Zuo Zongtang, as the commander of the left army, had already planned it in advance.
Zuo Zongtang made a clear plan. Although the closest straight line distance between the Klezanovsky Group in Bishkek and the Villeborg Kaufman Group in Gurban Alimatu is less than 300 miles, if they really want to have a smooth exchange, they must circle a circle of more than 1,000 miles.
Because between the straight-line distance between these two groups, there are a barren mountain and wilderness connected by one, which is difficult to pass through at all.
So, once Zou Guojian takes action, even if Klezanovsky has the courage to select a few Scud-like dead soldiers to risk their lives to go to the Villeburg in Alimatu, Gurban, without more than five days, Kaufman would not have any news.
And this is exactly the case with the subsequent development of the situation.
At midnight on the 29th, the Red 14th Army's spies, which were always regarded as the hardest iron fist by Zou Guojian, and the Red 54th Division, silently approached the outpost of the Klezanovsky group, with the cover of night.
In just a few minutes, the officers and soldiers of the secret service regiment broke open the gate of Rebacheye cleanly. Half an hour later, a whole regiment of the Russian defenders of Rebacheye was wiped out.
While the battle of Rebachier was still in progress, the other three divisions of the Red 14th Army - Red 53, Red 55 and Red 56th Divisions - advanced almost in unison, sweeping towards the hinterland occupied by the Krezanovsky group like an angry tide.
On July 1st, he sent Zaharov, who was about to return to Vilneburg early in the morning, and then he led a dozen guards to the suburbs to hunt for a whole day with ease. Klezanovsky, who was rare and cool, was still on his "hunting ground" and learned that the Taipingtian** team had launched a full-scale attack on him.
The arrival of this bad news not only surprised Krezanovsky, but also shocked him.
Because in the report he received, his tentacles extending to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom - the Fortress of Rebachiye, was not even mentioned, and the ones directly spread in front of him were Gegotpurana, Shamushi, Bulongde and other places in the east, all were fiercely besieged by the main forces of the Taiping Heavenly** team, and they all cried and demanded reinforcements.
When Krezanovsky was panicked, he ran back to Bishkek City, holding the letters of help in his hand, and was still thinking about the map where the beaten places would be the real focus of the Taipingtian** team's attack. Should we send troops to rescue quickly and how to send troops to rescue, there had been huge changes on the actual battlefield.
The Red 14th Army commanded by Zou Guojian is basically similar to the armies of the Northwest Military Region. Except for the military spy regiments equipped with all kinds of muskets, most of the other units still use cold weapons.
But facing those Tsarist Russian ghosts who seemed to be more well equipped than themselves, Zou Guojian did not feel any frustration at all.
Thanks to daily rigorous training and countless wars, the Red 14th Army has already developed a skill and has become an invincible steel army.
At dusk on June 30, the Red Fifty-third Division troops arrived at the city of Bulong Dai.
Faced with the Tsarist Russian ghost who had no time to organize a comprehensive defense due to being caught off guard, he led the way to the Forward Battalion of the Red 53rd Division outside the City of Bulongde. Without waiting for the main force and cover artillery fire behind him to pounce on the Bulongde City in front of him.
Because they had to deal with a small earth city like Bulongdai surrounded by two or three feet thick loess walls, the officers and soldiers of the Red 14th Army were really experienced.
More than a hundred Red Army officers and soldiers, under the feint attack of the main force of the battalion, followed the backpacks of almost all the brothers who had just been concentrated and had jumped into the moat two or three meters deep, using the moat as a cover, and first avoided the guns and bullets of the Tsarist Russian ghosts from the city.
Then, a row of magic weapons of the Red Army's guardians - hand grenades, were accurately thrown into the city.
With the help of grenades, on the top of the ladder that had been set up, Red Army soldiers with large explosive packs of two feet square under their ribs were leaping out of the moat at the same time in different areas.
Amid the roar of the sky, the earthen wall of Bulongde had to reveal one or several of them at the same time.
At this time, the locust-like grenade began to run towards the gap.
In the midst of the rushing smoke and the long yellow dust, a personal ladder continued to send the Red Army soldiers outside the moat.
The Red Army soldiers who flew out of the moat, one by one, held cloth bags full of grenades, leaned under the broken city wall, and used grenades one by one to blow up the Tsarist Russian ghosts who dared to continue to resist within the wall, seized the gap; the other one quickly untied the rope that had been tied to his waist in advance, held it tightly in his hand, and quickly threw it down the moat...
Before the defenders of Bulongday woke up completely, the officers and soldiers of the Forward Battalion had consolidated and expanded the siege point.
