Chapter 116
When permissioned.
More than two dozen Army officers, led by a German major general, boarded the northbound train.
After changing trains in Harbin, they moved west along the Binjiang-Manzhouli line.
Along the way, they also passed a place called Anda County ~.
Look out from the windowsill in the middle of the military column.
A major officer exclaimed, "Huh? What are those machines for? Good - strange machine. "
His words immediately attracted the attention of the group.
"Isn't that a pumping machine?"
On the plain about a few kilometers away from the railway line.
Several kowtow-like beam pumping machines are in operation.
These pumping machines are the pumping equipment of the No. 3 well in Daqing Oilfield.
More than half a month ago.
Under the leadership of Li Siguang, the exploration team discovered a huge oil field under the ground in Anda County.
According to the data of the probe, the total reserves of this underground are at least more than 200,000 tons.
And this reserve estimate is far from the limit of this oil field.
When the oil was produced from the pre-exploration well, the entire exploration team was excited.
Especially Li Siguang, who is responsible for leading the team.
Didn't he come to the northeast to find oil?
And the blowout of this oil field also put an end to the Chinese oil-free theory of the Yin Kingdom.
However, Zhang Xueming did not choose to announce the news.
Instead, a semi-blockade was carried out.
This semi-blockade means not to hide the existence of this oil field, but to hide the true reserves of this oil field.
If asked, say that the reserves of this oil field are only tens of millions of tons.
It is a small oil field that was discovered with great difficulty.
This is mainly for the sake of extraneous branches.
Once the country discovered the true reserves of this oil field.
They will definitely be constantly looking for oil fields in Huaxia.
Will they choose to go south then?
If they don't go south, how can they break the Allied colonization in Southeast Asia?
If they do not occupy the countries of Southeast Asia.
In the future, how will Zhang Xueming move to Southeast Asia?
Although he is still in this corner of the northeast.
But he had already thought about things a long time ago.
It was precisely for this reason that he did not choose to move his hand for the time being.
Because once you hit the moss again.
Then it is very likely that the country will take a breath of relief and directly declare bankruptcy.
At that time, Zhang Xueming had to personally go to the field to dry eagle sauce.
This is not in Huaxia's interests.
Of course, it's still too far to think about this now.
"Pumping machine? Is this for pumping oil? There are actually oil fields in the northeast? "
The theory that China is oil-free has spread around the world.
So in everyone's image, China is an oil-poor country.
But from the current situation.
This does not seem to be the case.
After hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a look of envy.
"What a country rich in materials."
Immediately, an officer made such an exclamation.
What situation in Germany they know very well.
Most resources need to be imported.
Oil, in particular, is completely dependent on foreign countries.
So seeing this scene, they are really envious.
As the train rumbled westward, a train equipped with a heavy diesel locomotive came from the opposite direction.
"Have you noticed that the trains we encountered along the way seemed to be diesel locomotives, not steam locomotives?"
After hearing this, everyone was surprised to discover this phenomenon.
Along the way, they encountered more than ten large and small trains.
Indeed, I have not encountered a rattle, coal-burning steam locomotive.
And all are diesel locomotives.
"The northeast of China and their hinterland are exactly like two worlds."
A major officer who had been in Huaxia said a little surprised.
"How? Is the northeast of China different from their hinterland? "
An officer who was also an army major asked with some curiosity.
The major was handsome and thin, and in German parlance, a standard beautiful man.
The major smiled and explained, "Rommel, it seems that you know too little about Huaxia.
The interior of China is like we were more than a hundred years ago, it is completely an agricultural country.
Very backward, there is no industry at all.
And the Northeast is like an industrial country.
Although there are also shadows of agricultural countries, we are very surprised by many of their industrial products.
What a wonderful country. "
Guderian, who heard this not far away, also came over.
"Yes, what I have seen these days has subverted my view of Huaxia.
When I came, I didn't really have any hope, I just wanted to see their rumored tanks.
I am very glad that we have come to the northeast this time, and I am also glad that we will witness a great war next. "
In the past few days, they have not been idle, and they have also gone to the Jinzhou Industrial Zone to walk around.
It left a very deep impression on them.
Although the industry in the northeast is not very perfect.
But many industrial technologies are more advanced than in Europe.
Rommel's eyes were also full of expectation.
"I also want to meet their tanks."
For the tanks of the Northeast Army.
They had never seen their faces, they had only heard them in rumors.
"Buzz..."
As they advanced, there was a buzzing engine overhead.
Even the sound of the train can't be masked.
The sound is getting louder and louder.
This shows that they are getting closer and closer.
Everyone stuck their heads out the window and looked up. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
When they saw the scene in the sky, they couldn't help but show shocked and horrified eyes.
This scene is also something they will never forget.
A mixed fleet of 60 B-29 strategic bombers, 30 Mosquito fighter-bombers, and 58 Mustang and Thunderbolt flew westward in a large formation.
This group of aircraft had just finished resupplying at Qiqihar airfield and flew to the attack group on the Manzhouli front.
"This.... Is this their fighter? "
"Such a huge fighter, I have never seen a fighter of this size."
"It's hard to imagine how such a big fighter can fly into the sky."
The B-29 strategic bomber flying at 3,000 meters in the air clearly displayed its huge size in their eyes.
No wonder they were so shocked.
And anyway, the maximum take-off weight of the B-29 also reached 62 tons.
At the moment, it's definitely a giant in the sky.
When their group arrived at the front.
The fighting on the Manchurian front was basically over.
Maozi 's 14th Corps Division and 8th Tank Brigade suffered heavy losses under the combined attack of hundreds of heavy artillery pieces , rocket launchers and hundreds of fighters.
It can even be described as one in ten.
In particular, the 8th tank brigade.
The tank they flew was the best ground target for the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter.
The P-47D Thunderbolt fighter with an air-cooled engine has excellent low-altitude performance.
Heavy armor was also added to protect important places such as cockpits and fuel tanks.
Plus its unusually strong body.
Anti-aircraft fire on the ground is basically incapable of posing a threat to them.
And they were often able to plug these tanks with only eight 12.7 mm aviation machine guns.
So this also led to the near total destruction of the 8th Tank Brigade.
And the 14th Corps Division is now completely dispersed.
Fewer than two thousand people have survived.
Their area is even more like the surface of the moon.
There were potholed craters and loose mud everywhere.
More than 50,000 shells and 20,000 rockets landed in the area and exploded.
Any shovel down, you can shovel out a pound of shrapnel.
You can imagine how dense the explosion is in this area.
And during this period, Maozi can only watch.
Their artillery simply could not do anything about it.
The warplanes in the sky that were looking for prey gave them no courage to show up at all.
Because of their words of showing up.
In less than five minutes, fighter planes would dive down and plow their artillery positions.
At this moment, they can be described as holding back.
And the shock caused by this battle to Maozi was also extremely huge.
Known as the eternal military soul of the Far East, the future polar bear marshal Blyuchel is also helpless in the face of such a situation.
In front of him was already piled up with rescue telegrams from the 14th Corps.
But he resisted the order to let the artillery counterattack.
Because he knew very well that the artillery would show up as soon as it appeared.
Air strikes and shelling will inevitably be provoked.
He had never fought such a battle.
At this moment, he finally understood why the Japanese army was defeated so quickly.
At the same time, he could not imagine.
It has only been two or three years since the Middle East Road incident.
Why did the Northeast Army change so much, and the artillery power was even stronger than all of them.
In particular, the number of their large-caliber heavy artillery is simply appalling.
And the Air Force is even more powerful.
It made him feel powerless to resist.
If it had been before the war, he would have been confident of winning the war.
Now he really has no confidence.
But it's not without hope of victory.
Because he still has an ace force in his hands.
This is the 5th Mechanized Army of the Far Eastern Special Army.
This mechanized army is an experimental synthetic force.
Formation began at the end of last year.
Not so long ago transferred to the Far East.
This mechanized corps had one tank brigade and two mechanized brigades.
It is equipped with more than 500 tanks, more than 200 armored vehicles and more than 60 artillery pieces.
He understood that today's offensive was a disgrace given to him by the northeast.
Otherwise, the Northeast Army would have launched a ground offensive long ago.
And not with massive artillery and air strikes all the time as a means.
But if that scares them.
Then they underestimate their courage as revolutionaries.
To preserve the interests of the Motherland, they will do whatever it takes.
But Blyuchel was wrong.
The reason why Huang Baitao did not choose to launch a ground offensive.
It was because he received an intelligence report from the intelligence services.
A large armored unit appeared in the large rear area of Later Baikal.
But the Air Force has not yet found any trace of them.
I am in the light and the enemy is in the dark.
This massive armored force was the biggest variable in the campaign.
He is now waiting for this armored force to appear.
