Chapter 1078: Expansion of the situation (seeking monthly ticket)
?? "Da da da!" The squad opened fire violently with a machine gun, and a swarm of bullets shot over, immediately knocking down several Russian border guard soldiers. The other Russian soldiers were also frightened, lying on the ground, sweating.
?? The equipment of the border guards is the worst in the Russian army, and they are basically eliminated from the field troops, so we don't expect their quality to be much better. In addition, the task this time was to intercept the fugitives, so these border guards did not carry many powerful weapons, except for rifles, there were only a few grenades. This made them not know what to do after being machine gunned by the Ukrainian army.
?? Fortunately, the Ukrainian soldiers saw that they had suppressed the Bu-Russian border guards, and instead of pursuing the victory, they withdrew immediately. In any case, this time they were the ones who fired first, killing several Bu-Russian border guards, and they did not suffer.
??After returning to the station, the squad leader immediately responded to the situation. It's just that the battalion commander of an infantry battalion stationed in this area didn't take it seriously. Over the years, the Kingdom of Ukraine and Russia have clashed on the border many times. As long as one's own side does not suffer losses, the superiors will not blame them. After all, this kind of thing has happened many times, and they have long been used to it.
?? However, what the Ukrainians did not expect was that this time the situation was a little different. Because the company commander who was killed had a lot of background. He was the nephew of a commander of an infantry corps in Bue. The army commander put him in the border guards just to accumulate qualifications, and he would be transferred back to the field army in two years. But I didn't expect that such a thing would happen at this juncture.
??This is also the reason why those border guard soldiers fled back and reported to the instructor.
??The instructor did not dare to neglect, and immediately reported the situation to the superior. In less than an hour, Colonel Alexander, the commander of the frontier division on this section of the border, learned of the situation.
?? "Asshole! How could Comrade Kabosky be shot by the Ukrainians? Didn't he carry it in the rear? What's going on?" Colonel Alexander looked angry.
??The status of the border guards was not as good as that of the field army, not to mention that Kaboski's uncle was a commander of the field army. He was a major general, a serious general. Although, after the Great Cleansing, the status of the chief officer of the army has been greatly inferior to that of the chief officer of political work, but it is still not something that a small border colonel like him can afford to offend!
?? "Comrade Commander, Comrade Kabosky went to intercept the fugitives and was shot dead by Ukrainians." An officer reported.
?? Colonel Alexander frowned, he believed that things would not be that simple.
?? "I want to know the real situation!" Colonel Alexander said with a dark face.
??The officer hesitated for a moment, and then told Colonel Alexander the real situation. When he heard that Kabosky treated those fugitives like that, Colonel Alexander also felt that this guy deserved what he deserved. However, now that Kabosky is dead, this is a big deal!
?? "Comrade commander, what should we do now? Should we report it?" the officer asked.
Colonel Alexander thought for a while, and then said: "Give the 2nd Regiment an order to launch an attack on the Ukrainians. No matter what, we have to avenge Comrade Kabosky. There is an explanation."
?? "Comrade Commander, will this lead to a larger conflict. If that is the case, it will not end well." The officer was a little worried.
"Don't worry, the Ukrainians are used to being weak. Although they have taken refuge in a good master, they simply don't have the guts to have a large-scale conflict with us. As long as they can kill a hundred or eighty Ukrainians, that's fine. At that time, Comrade Kabosky's death can be included in this conflict. In that case, when we report, we can say that we were provoked by the Ukrainians, and Comrade Kabosky led his troops to counterattack heroically, and finally died for the country. At that time, Comrade Kabosky will be a hero!" Colonel Alexander said.
??He had exactly such an idea. If Kabosky became a hero, Kabosky's uncle would naturally have nothing to say.
?? Colonel Alexander's secret order was issued immediately. And the head of the 2nd Regiment was his confidant, Lieutenant Colonel Terkaf. Lieutenant Colonel Terkaf faithfully carried out Colonel Alexander's orders.
??On the evening of June 14, the 2nd Regiment of the 121st Division of the Burgundy-Russian Border Army launched a surprise attack on the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 54th Infantry Division of the Ukrainian Army. However, even if it was attacked suddenly, the performance of the Ukrainian Army is still remarkable. Although, in terms of military strength, the Ukrainian army is at a disadvantage, but the gap is not large.
??Before the war broke out, the Ukrainian Army could be regarded as being trained by the German army, and the formation of the troops was exactly the same as that of the German army. It's just that there are not as many heavy weapons as the German army, and most of the weapons equipped are replaced by the German army. For example, the German Army is already equipped with semi-automatic rifles, and the replaced Mauser 1898 rifles are sold to these protectorates. Even the Mauser 1898 rifle has been in service since the last World War. But even now, the performance is still very good. What's more, most of these Mauser rifles are improved Mauser 98K, with better performance.
??An infantry battalion of the Ukrainian Army, with thousands of people, equipped with mortars, infantry artillery and light and heavy machine guns. A regiment of the Russian Army has only more than 1,000 people, less than 2,000. A field infantry division of the Russian Army has only 12,000 soldiers, which is more than 4,000 fewer than the German army. In addition, the Russian Army has a brigade-level establishment, so the infantry regiment does not have many troops.
??After the battle began, the Ukrainian troops initially panicked, but they quickly calmed down. Especially when they saw that the Russian border guards suffered heavy losses from their own artillery and machine gun fire, they fought more and more smoothly, applying various tactics taught by the German instructors. At the same time, the performance of various weapons and equipment was also brought into play, which immediately made the Burusa-Russia border guards suffer a lot.
?? Lieutenant Colonel Terkav did not expect the battle to be fought like this. He thought that launching a surprise attack would cause the Ukrainians to suffer a big loss, but he did not expect that it was himself who suffered the loss.
??After losing hundreds of people, the Burusian border guards collapsed immediately, and the remnants fled back to the territory of Burusa.
??However, they crossed the border to attack Ukrainian troops, which made the situation expand again this time.
