Chapter 153： leapfrog tactics

?There is no suspense. On the pier, soldiers from the 105th Airborne Division who arrived early are directing the tanks to go ashore. The pier of Kushiro Port is wide, and a dozen cargo ships are docked almost at the same time, and then they will bring the army ashore at the same time. .

If this scene is seen by the US military, it is estimated that he will vomit blood with envy. During World War II, if the Allied troops also landed like this, it would be great!

History will not repeat itself. Only by having a keen insight into the fighter, skillfully exploiting the opponent's weakness, and never tire of deceit, can we hit the opponent's weakness hard!

This surprise attack had a miraculous effect, that is, the Soviet Red Army easily occupied the entire Kushiro at the cost of wounding a dozen people! This important port is firmly under control, and through this port, the Soviet Union can continuously put the follow-up new forces into it.

Vladivostok.

"Andrei, this time we were able to successfully occupy Hokkaido, thanks to you." At the headquarters of the Far Eastern Military Region, Lieutenant General Yazov said to Andrei.

All of these plans were proposed by Andre. At that time, the original plan of the military region was to fight across the sea, swarming across the Soya Strait, first with the help of a powerful air raid group and long-range artillery, the opposite fortifications They were destroyed, and then a large number of ships were used to transport the army, a complete replica of the Normandy landing.

With the powerful Soviet military strength, there is no problem in attacking a Hokkaido without American garrison, but the imperfection of this plan is that there is too much movement.

The air force and artillery are on the field together. As soon as the war starts, the whole world knows that the Soviet Union is going to occupy Hokkaido. If there is no accident, at most ten minutes, the American aircraft group taking off from the mainland will have a large-scale battle with the Soviet fighters. Air combat, this scene, there is a situation that cannot be held. It will get bigger and bigger, and even a large-scale local war will break out.

Therefore, the Soviet Union made two-handed preparations, intending to do it first. Just informing the United States that this is to fulfill the order left by Stalin in the past to divide the island country. I hope the United States will understand the situation and not participate in this battle. Otherwise the Soviets will not compromise.

And now, Andre's plan has solved the problem perfectly. Now that all Kushiro has been taken down, the islanders still haven't responded!

The interference of the radio, the influence of the fog at sea, and the fact that there was almost no movement, the Soviet Union has occupied Kushiro without a fight! The main purpose of this operation has been achieved, to obtain an ice-free port facing the Pacific Ocean! Pacific Fleet, can easily go from here later. Sail to the ocean!

When Andrei proposed the plan, many people thought it was too risky. In the end, Marshal Ustinov made the decision. Now it seems that this bold plan is the most successful!

"It's all the efforts of all the soldiers. The credit belongs to our entire Far East Military Region and our entire army." Andre said, "General, can I go back to the original army and participate in the battle? If nothing happens, it will definitely break out tomorrow. An aerial battle."

Back to the original army! Whether on Sakhalin or Itulup, Andrei hopes very much that he can go back to fight.

That day, after coming up with the plan. Andre was left behind on the grounds that Andre's level was not enough. After coming into contact with such a secret, in order to prevent it from being leaked, he had to stay.

However, after Andre stayed. I did not stay in the small black room, but at the staff headquarters, and coordinated all plans, including the flight route of the air assault, including the mobilization of the 105th Division, including the itinerary of the merchant shipping and landing troops, including the cooperation of various troops. Dere knew that this was probably Ustinov's original intention, which was to train himself to become a commander.

Andre was grateful from the bottom of his heart, but his hands were still itchy. As a soldier, he hoped to be able to gallop on the battlefield, drive his own fighter jet, and compete with the Americans.

Now, Andre's number of downed enemy planes has exceeded five, and he has become an ace pilot of the Far East Air Defense Air Force. Andrei hopes that the number of downed planes can be further increased.

And now, the Far East Military Region is obviously going to hide Andre Snow.

Of course Andre knew that it was safe here, but Andre was more eager to spread his wings, especially after he learned that the MiG-31 interceptor finally came over from Mikoyan's test airfield. Lie couldn't control his excitement even more.

It's an eagle, it's about to spread its wings and fly high!

"Now, our army has landed at Kushiro Port. From here, we must move forward quickly and quickly solve the defenders of the island country." Ivan-Treichyanko continued to ignore Andrei's application. .

Hokkaido is too close to Sakhalin Island. In order to fight against the Soviet Union in the north, the islanders also deployed a large number of ground troops in Hokkaido. There are four reorganized divisions and brigades, 2nd Division, 5th Brigade, The 7th Division and the 11th Brigade had a total of about 21,160 people.

The original planned attack route was to advance from north to south, and the second division of Asahikawa would be attacked first, but now, it has become the landing from Kushiro in the east, and the battle plan has also changed accordingly.

From Kushiro to the west, first attack Obihiro's 5th Division, then attack Chitose City, take down the 7th Division and the air base here, and finally hit Sapporo. In this way, the main force of the island country will be gone. , the 2nd division in the north is the turtle in the urn.

This plan was revised, but Andre always felt that something was missing.

"The 5th Tank Division has completed its assembly at the port and is now advancing towards Obihiro." At this moment, a staff officer reported.

leapfrog tactics! In Andre's mind, such a term suddenly came to mind, yes, leapfrog tactics!

This tactic was in the First World War in Papua New Guinea during World War II. MacArthur, Halsey and others, who were suffering from entanglement with the Japanese Navy and Air Force, gradually formed their guiding ideology for the Pacific War: when their own forces are limited, attacking troops Without departing from the cover of the Air Force, along the central axis of the advance, make a jump attack to the periphery of several important targets, that is, the "leapfrog tactic".

Guided by this idea, the Allies successfully carried out more than a dozen amphibious landings along the coast of New Guinea, bypassing the strong Japanese defenses and targeting Mindanao in the Philippines. This greatly saves the manpower and material resources of the U.S. military, and achieves high results at a low cost, becoming a model in military history.

Now that the Soviet army has landed in Hokkaido and transported a large number of Mi-24 Hind helicopters, they can also use the same tactics to bypass Obihiro and raid the Chitose base! (To be continued.)
