Later, the battle of Bilm became bloody, and Chinese artillery began to take over. However, the Russian Katyusha rocket launcher caused greater casualties to the Chinese. The artillery fire roared and gunfire sounded loudly on the battlefield, and the battle was fiercer than ever before. The Chinese army's regiment rushed into Bilm's village first and drove away the Russian cavalry there.

Unexpectedly, a Russian cavalry brigade soon organized another counterattack, and all the 133rd Regiment died on the battlefield. The Russian cavalry brigade had not yet gained a foothold. A reinforcement from a Chinese division arrived and wiped out most of the cavalry brigade and occupied the village of Birm. Then there was the overwhelming Katyusha rocket. Although the Chinese army was already very familiar with the performance of this weapon, there was still no way to reduce casualties.

After the Chinese army broke through from the central government, the Russian army launched a fierce attack on the Russian army in Iran. Although the Russian army was separated, the forces on the left and right wings were not inferior to the Chinese assault troops. On the contrary, the number of people in naval battles was advantageous. They desperately attacked China's assault troops. The Chinese assault troops resisted tenaciously with a one-to-two disadvantage and repelled the Russian army's multiple attacks in succession.

It was a good bloody grinder. At 12 noon, Han Xinghua re-adjusted the deployment. He concentrated 1,200 cannons to attack the left wing of the Russian army. In fact, Tiemsinger was not outdone. He transferred 200 cannons and 350 Katyusha to bombard. For a moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke and the earth was shaking.

The shelling of both sides lasted for several hours, and the Chinese army lost the position seven times again. Just as the Chinese army braved the rain of bullets, Timusinger was hit by a shell of the Chinese army, causing fatal and serious injuries. He was carried out of the battlefield. On his dying day, Timusinger appointed a colonel as the commander-in-chief of the retreat, which was Zhukov. Later: the performance let the world know that Timusinger's vision was very accurate.

After a series of tactical mobilizations, Zhukov gave up the 150,000 Russian troops behind the palace and was covered in scars. The 110 Russian troops with low morale fled back to Kazan. The army was short of clothing and food, and was defeated repeatedly. It seemed that if they would fall into hell after pushing it again, and not long ago, they also lost their leader, the famous general Temusingh.

However, due to the arrival of the first snow in winter, the Chinese army had to stop, in the cold Russia. Once it snowed in winter, it meant that it was basically impossible for any army to attack at a temperature of 040 degrees, except for the Russians.

However, although it cannot be attacked, it is still necessary for the Chinese army to eliminate the Russian army that is now encircled. Without destroying this Russian army, the position cannot be consolidated. The troops cannot find a city that can be used as a temporary base. After the snow, many frozen dead have appeared.

Ma Damao followed the troops to attack the city of Bilm. In this extremely cold winter, the unstoppable offensive momentum of the Chinese army was stopped under this inconspicuous city. Ma Damao was a member of the Chinese army. He and several wounded men sat around a small bonfire. The "General of the Winter" kept breaking through thick cotton clothes and clothes that invaded his body. The temperature had dropped to more than minus 20 degrees Celsius. It seemed that it would continue to drop. Ma Adamao didn't know whether his cotton clothes could resist colder weather?

The attack has been going on for three days. During these days, Ma Damao was basically fighting against the cold. This year, the winter in Russia came too late. I knew it was snowing now. However, perhaps to make up for the reason that it came too late, it was too cold in the winter a few years. Although there was a lot of preparations, the troops began to experience a large amount of frostbite and severe diarrhea. In such a season, severe diarrhea was basically equivalent to announcing death. For a time, the troops experienced a large number of non-combat attributable troops.

These days, the sky above the city was surrounded by Chinese Air Force fighter jets. Diving bombers poured ammunition into the city. The buildings became rubble, the earth was overturned, the air was filled with the whistles of bullets and shrapnel, and the broken steel bars, twisted steel rails, gravel bricks and traps formed by bullets and craters were everywhere. No one could stick to it here.

But the Russians were determined to resist, and they stood firm in Bilm, which was already full of ruins. The bombing launched by the Chinese Air Force in cooperation with the attack of the ground forces made Bilm add to the ruins, but Ma Damao found that the more ruins the Chinese Air Force created, the more bunkers there were for the resistance, and no one was willing to live in this hell except for rats.

Although repeated publicity, the Chinese army preferential treatment of prisoners can make the Russian army, except for a few Russian troops with real combat effectiveness, other Russian troops do not care. Sometimes Ma Damao thinks that it is best to do that and call before attacking:

"Russian Russians, don't resist, come out and surrender, and the Chinese army will preferentially treat prisoners. If you don't surrender now, when the fight begins, the Chinese army will not accept the prisoners, and everyone must be executed!"

Back then, the Qing Dynasty won the world by massacre of cities, and the Mongols were the same. They all achieved victory through bloody killings, rather than mercy. This kind of thing on the battlefield was disgusted by all soldiers.

The harsh battle was beyond people's imagination. The positions were constantly alternating in the hands of both sides, and the front line was moving back and forth in a tug-of-war manner. The attack of a platoon in the battalion of Ma Damao was a typical combat mode for a long time. This platoon was suppressed in front of a workers' dormitory. The machine gun bullets suppressed them and they could not raise their heads. The people around the platoon leader were constantly hit by stray bullets, and the platoon leader was also killed here.

Obviously, a non-commissioned officer in this platoon was crazy. He howled and jumped up and rushed towards the enemy's defensive position. The defender's bullet did not hit him. He used explosives to blow up the wall that the defender used to rely on. Taking advantage of the gap where the smoke was not exhausted, he rushed in and captured the confused enemy who was blown up. The rest of the platoon survivors also began to attack.

The attacker quickly attacked the second floor. After a grenade explosion, all the Russian guards fell into smoke. The clothes on their bodies were cut into rags by splattered shrapnel. The walls were covered with blood and some parts of their broken limbs. The dead Russian soldiers were bleeding everywhere. The injured man curled up in the corner and waved his hands in the air, blood flowing from his ears.

Come out. This is a typical dizzy injury, their eardrums were damaged for a while.

The victors killed these surviving Russian soldiers one by one. The "Chamber of War" was not implemented well here. This is a secret that both sides know. If your friend was beaten to death by the enemy in battle, your hatred would not allow you to sympathize with the enemy. The situation of the Chinese army that fell into the hands of the Russian army was the same. The Russian army often shot and killed captured Chinese troops in front of the position to vent their anger in the form of their defeat in the war. Not long after capturing this new stronghold, the Russian mortars, which could not determine the launch location, roared at the position, and a large number of Russian soldiers in yellow uniforms launched a counterattack on the position, and some people wearing workers' costumes were mixed in the middle.

The Russians rarely look for concealment, but instead shouted "Ula" to charge. The Chinese army fired bullets from the guards kept knocking down these attackers, but the continuous successors still stepped on the bodies of the dead. In the end, the Chinese guardians and their follow-up troops did not resist the Russian attack, and the positions returned to the hands of the Russians. The battle had turned into a meaningless massacre. Every day, people died for a small icon on the map, and these soldiers of the Chinese Western Front Expeditionary Army who had been fighting all kinds of battles also began to get tired of the war.

Under the crazy resistance of the Russians, although a large number of personnel and technical weapons were lost, the city was still not captured. Commander Han Xinghua ordered the troops to continue the attack.

Soldiers cannot build positions on frozen land. It often takes a day to dig a small pit as deep as a shovel. Blasting with explosives does not have much effect. Such individual bunkers can only increase casualties. The battle between the hostile sides continues. The positions change hands repeatedly.

During the attack, Ma Damao discovered that the Russians had a surprisingly large force. If the Russians did not firmly believe that their army had the upper hand, Ma Damao would sometimes think that it was not the Russian army that was surrounded, but its own army. The Russian army had 150 people, not people.

The Western Front Expeditionary Force suffered great casualties, but the Russians did not get any benefits. Ma Damao had witnessed the tragic situation after a small Russian squad was ambushed. A Russian assault squad of about 20 people was all killed on the front line by carefully arranged by soldiers of the Chinese Western Front Expeditionary Force.

The commando still maintained its attacking formation. A grenade fired by an artillery crossed the entire team. The shells plowed a deep ditch on the ground. The sides of the ditch were bombarded. The parts were broken. One soldier had only his upper body and his waist was unknown where he went. The other soldier was black all over. Only his ankle bones could be vaguely distinguished. Some fragments of military uniforms were vaguely identified. It seemed that the entire shell explosion fell on this guy. Others were lying or lying in their posture before their death. Dried blood was solidified on the ground. Ma Damao couldn't help but sigh at the ruthlessness and unpredictability of the war. The person who was still talking to you a minute ago might have bid farewell to you within 60.

After a week of tug-of-war, the Chinese army paid a heavy price and still could not make decisive progress. Considering the surge in the number of people who were frozen to death and frostbite, Han Xinghua had to activate another secret weapon of the Chinese army - a napalm bomb, a combustion bomb with a high-temperature flame inside.

Before the bombing, Han Xinghua ordered the evacuation of all Chinese soldiers, but in the face of such complex terrain, some people did not receive a notice, and Ma Damao was also a member of it, so unfortunately he accepted these gifts from Hell Death with the Russians. Ma Damao was lucky to hide in a relatively closed building and could clearly see the situation outside the building.

After the napalm bomb explodes, the napalm that splashes on the Russians is like lard ointment. It is sticky and resistant to burning. If the Russians use their hands to slap the fire, the bigger the fire. If they roll on the ground to put out the fire, it will make the whole body full of fire. And once a person catches fire, the Russians next to them will have to save him. As a result, the hard struggle of the fire person can easily throw the burning oil onto others to form a secondary killing effect.

Ma Damao thought that for humanitarian reasons, it would be better to end the life of the fired person with a gun. Because the victims of napalm bombs can be said to be the greatest relief. Even if sometimes it is just a little burn on the hand, because they are all poisoned. There are many chemical combustion aids in napalm. Some are also added with white. After the human epidermis burns, a large amount of toxic chemicals will remain, which will enter the blood through the wound, causing blood poisoning of the wound.

Ma Damao has seen the deceased, and the burn surface is usually purple or blue-black. Some people's wounds will be frostbite. The pain when treating the wound can be imagined. The wails made people feel in hell. Many wounded people died without the level of blood poisoning. The wounds swelled and burst. This kind of burn actually requires sterile treatment conditions.

But this is the place of war. There is a sterile ward. After the war, Ma Damao saw with his own eyes that several Chinese wounded people died of blood infection. Looking at the possession in pain, Ma Damao suddenly remembered: Zhuge Liang, in the Three Kingdoms, was burning the vine armored soldiers. He had a feeling: God has it. I was guilty of heaven. I will definitely live longer. Ma Damao thought this was his feelings about the inhumanity of this kind of fierce fire tactic.

On December 31, 1916, the Chinese army launched a thorough gasoline bomb attack on Bilm, turning most of Bilm into ashes. Most of the Russian troops refused to accept were burned to death, and less than 300 survived. Although the Chinese army won the Battle of Bilm and wiped out 200,000 Russian troops, it also paid a price of more than 100,000 people and had to stop the attack and prepare to re-attack in the spring next year.
