"Send a telegram to Wu Keren that the Eighth Corps will start attacking at seven o'clock. The heavy artillery division of the military region will be handed over to the Eighth Corps. The command of the Eighth Corps will be handed over to the Eighth Corps Command. What I want is that the troops will be within five days Take the Twin Cities."

"General. The radar station is abnormal."

"abnormal?"

"Our radar station has been interfered, very strong interference. It is not our radar station itself that has a problem, but China attacked our radar station and interfered with our radar signal. I have contacted other radars This problem has happened to all radar stations at present.”

Shuangchengzi.

This was one of the important cities of the Soviet Far East.

Because the Far East is a newly developed place, there are not many important cities in the Far East of the Soviet Union.Irkutsk, Ulan-Ude, and Chita are the three most important cities around Lake Baikal, corresponding to Tangnu Ulianghai, Outer Mongolia, and Hulunbuir.It is also the most important transit station after the Siberian Railway enters the Far East.

The Trans-Siberian Railway continues, and the three important cities are Hailanpao, Khabarovsk, and Gongqingcheng, all bordering Heilongjiang.Then there is Vladivostok, and Shuangchengzi is the most important city between Khabarovsk and Vladivostok.

The reason why Shuangchengzi can develop rapidly and become an important city in this area is because it is between Vladivostok and Khabarovsk.And he is also the place where the Dongqing Railway passes.The Trans-Siberian Railway entered China from Manzhouli, passed through the cities of Harbin, and finally passed through Suifenhe, and then connected with Shuangchengzi.Therefore, Shuangchengzi is not only an important city for the Soviet Siberian Railway to Vladivostok, but also a connection point between the Dongqing Railway and the Siberian Railway in China.

At present, the headquarters of the First Red Banner Army is here.Half of the troops of the First Red Banner Army are in Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok.There are still half of the troops on the side of Khabarovsk.Vasilyev, commander of the First Red Banner Army, just woke up and was eating breakfast.The person in charge of the radar station came to Vasilyev's place panting, and nervously reported what happened at the radar station.

Hearing the report, Vasilyev was shocked.

Vasilyev was surprised because he knew that such a thing had happened before the war in the Transbaikal Military Region.At that time, the Northern Military Region of China also carried out this kind of jamming attack on the opposite Soviet radar before the big air strike.After those radar stations became inoperable, China launched an air strike that nearly wiped out two-thirds of the Transbaikal Military District's air force.

This matter has been passed on to all units of the Soviet army.

The failure of the Transbaikal Military Region shocked the entire Soviet army.The Soviet troops immersed in the old tactics were greatly shocked.Many people in the Soviet army have begun to rethink what modern warfare is.

That's why Vasilyev is so nervous when he hears that the radar station has been interfered with.

"No, the Chinese army is going to launch an air strike."

Vasiliev quickly judged, so he stood up immediately, and asked as he walked out, "When did it start?"

"About 13 minutes. Our radar station has never received this kind of attack, so at first we thought it was a problem with the radar station. Later, we found that other radar stations also had this problem, and we judged that it was a jamming attack. .”

"13 minutes? Before the radar station was attacked, did you see the Chinese plane take off?"

"No."

"No. That means that the Chinese aircraft did not enter the detection range of our radar station 13 minutes ago."

Vasiliev walked very fast.

Because he kept calculating in his mind. No Chinese aircraft was found 13 minutes ago, which means that the Chinese aircraft was more than 2000 kilometers away from the radar station at that time.These radar stations in the Soviet Union have a detection range of about 90 kilometers for aircraft at an altitude of more than [-] meters.That's why Vasiliev judged that the Chinese aircraft are at least [-] kilometers away.However, modern aircraft are very fast, and [-] kilometers per hour is easy.For some fast planes, [-] kilometers per hour is no problem.

One hundred kilometers may seem like a long distance, but in fact, it takes half an hour for the bomber fleet.Some fast planes can fly 10 kilometers in [-] minutes.

This is no small thing.

"Come, come, come."

"General."

"Call the Air Force and get our planes all flying."

"General?"

"Didn't you hear my order? Let all the planes at the airport take off, and don't drop a single one. Take off the fighter jets first, and let the air force prepare for battle. Now, hurry up, don't waste any time."

Airplanes don't take off just because they want to.

You have to refuel, reload, and accept scheduling.After dozens of planes are armed, it takes half an hour to fly.Even once there is a problem with scheduling, it may even exceed half an hour.

But Vasilyev understood that his time was running out.Since China interferes with the radar station, it must be prepared.Vasilyev guessed right.In order not to give the Soviet army a chance, the air forces deployed by Shang Zhen were all air forces stationed in Harbin, Jilin, Jiamusi, and Jixi.When the first batch of air forces were about [-] kilometers away from Shuangchengzi, they began to interfere with the Soviet radar station.

In this way, the Soviet army had no idea where the Chinese Air Force was flying from.

And without wasting time.While interfering with the Soviet radar station, these planes departing from Harbin, Jilin, Jiamusi, and Jixi can directly participate in the attack in batches.Vasilyev's action has been very fast, but it is still a lot late.

As soon as Vasilyev entered the command room, the phone in the command room rang.

"General, call from the 59th Division."

"I'm Vasilyev."

"Commander, our observation post has discovered the aircraft fleet of the Chinese army. About 80 or so aircraft fleets have passed through our division's defense area and flew towards Ussuriysk (Shuangchengzi)."

"I see."

Vasiliev's heart tightened.

I didn't expect the Chinese air force to come so fast. The 59th Division is a unit under the Red Flag First Group Army, and it is also the unit deployed at the forefront. It is only about 60 kilometers away from Suifenhe.

59师防线离双城子不到40公里，也就是刚刚超过30公里。这点距离对于飞机机群来说，也就是不到10分钟的时间。也就是说10分钟之内中国飞机就要空袭双城子。

So Vasilyev hung up the phone, and immediately said to the adjutant next to him: "Put all the troops on combat readiness to prepare for air strikes by the Chinese army. Raise the alarm and prepare all troops for air strikes."

"Yes."

Vasiliev was nervous.

But less than 5 minutes after the order was given, the phone rang again.Vasilyev picked up the phone, and it was still from the 59th Division.

"Commander, our observation post reports. Another group of about 110 aircraft has passed our defense line."

When Vasilyev heard the report from the 59th Division, he immediately said loudly: "This is a signal for the Chinese army to attack. Your 59th Division is ready for combat."

"Yes."

Vasilyev put down the phone, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

"General, take shelter in the air-raid shelter."

"Where's our troops? By the way, call the oil depot and get them ready for camouflage. The anti-aircraft artillery unit is ready for combat, fighter jets, take off as many as you can fly."

Time is seriously running out.

Where did Vasilyev have the mood to hide in the air-raid shelter by himself.Now the Soviet army is not prepared at all.A large number of planes are still listening at the airport, how many can take off in such a short time.

Including oil depots.

Can such a short time be completely camouflaged.

Vasilyev kept giving orders, trying to reduce losses.Unfortunately, the time is still too short. Only about 59 minutes after the second call from the 3th Division came, the first wave of planes from China had already flown.The bombing target of the Chinese Air Force this time is very obvious.

Or in other words, it was already planned.

They went straight to the Soviet military airfield in Shuangchengzi. The observation post of the 59th Division found that it took about 8 minutes for the Chinese aircraft to reach the first wave of air strikes by the Chinese Air Force, which was less than 10 minutes.This time is really short, and many planes have no time to take off.Even the fighter jets that took off, they were not able to refuel and load enough ammunition.In order to avoid being bombed directly, they all took off in a hurry and then went to war.
