The Rise of the Great Powers in the War of Resistance

Datong, No.30 Sixth Army Headquarters.

Since it was decided to confront the Soviet army, it was necessary to let several high-level personnel know about it. Today, Zhang Yunfei discussed this matter with everyone in the small conference room of the headquarters.

First of all, Zhang Yunfei briefly talked about the situation in Mongolia and the confrontation between the 2nd column and the Soviet army. Zhang Yunfei said these things very simply, but he just briefly mentioned them. After all, as the No.30 Sixth Army, everyone At the top level, it is relatively clear.

In the end, Zhang Yunfei expressed his decision. Zhang Yunfei planned to fight a few battles with the Soviet army in Outer Mongolia and take the entire Outer Mongolia into his pocket. According to Zhang Yunfei’s point of view, Outer Mongolia has been China’s territory since ancient times, and now he has the ability to do so. It must be taken back.

After Zhang Yunfei finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the conference room, because everyone knew that the Soviet Union was very powerful, and it was definitely not easy to mess with. Maybe they didn't hit the fox and instead made a "show". [

However, since it is Zhang Yunfei's decision, everyone can only firmly support it. Not only does Zhang Yunfei have supreme authority in the entire No.30 Sixth Army, but also everyone has deep admiration for Zhang Yunfei. Facts have proved that Zhang Yunfei's decision has always been No mistakes have been made, and everyone has confidence in Zhang Yunfei.

Sure enough, not long after, Comrade Zuo Qingquan, Chief of the General Staff, took the lead in supporting Zhang Yunfei, "Commander-in-Chief! Although the Soviet Union is very powerful, our No.30 Sixth Army is not weak. We must fight this battle. Win the battle and recover the entire Outer Mongolia."

The power of the Soviet Union is believed to be known to the left chief of staff.The Far Eastern Army of the entire Soviet Union has millions of people, and in terms of equipment, there are nearly 5000 cannons of various types, more than [-] tanks, and three to four thousand aircraft. Facing such a huge force, the left chief of staff Without flinching, he firmly stood on Zhang Yunfei's side.

Following the statement of the left chief of staff, the rest of the senior officials, like Deng Wenping.Fangzheng, Liu Dazhu, etc. naturally unswervingly supported Zhang Yunfei.

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Zhang Yunfei was going to fight first, and not report to the central government for now. If the central government knew that he was attacking the Soviet Union, many variables might arise.

Some time ago, the two major columns went deep into Outer Mongolia, and the central government had already sent a telegram.It is suggested that the No.30 Sixth Army should suspend its action, because entering Outer Mongolia would violate the interests of the Soviet Union.

Received a telegram from the Central.Zhang Yunfei personally sent a report to the "Chairman", clarifying various interests, and finally convinced the "Chairman". This time, Zhang Yunfei planned to keep the central government from knowing about the open confrontation with the Soviet Union, and wait until the raw rice is cooked.

As the No.30 Sixth Army became stronger and stronger, Zhang Yunfei also gradually showed his tough side, facing some unreasonable decisions above.Zhang Yunfei will execute it selectively.

It doesn't matter whether Zhang Yunfei's wings are growing, or Zhang Yunfei wants to become a warlord, Zhang Yunfei doesn't care about these things. Zhang Yunfei believes that as long as it is beneficial to the Chinese nation, he will resolutely do it. As for political matters.Zhang Yunfei has already seen it very lightly.

Now, seeing everyone's unanimous opinion, Zhang Yunfei began to order the second column to temporarily confront the Soviet army.For the time being, the 2th column that entered Mongolia was ordered to move closer to the 4nd column.

Finally, in order to win this battle, Zhang Yunfei transferred the 1st column back from North Korea and headed for Mongolia.

At present, there are only 6 to [-] little devils left in North Korea, and two-thirds of North Korea has been controlled by soldiers. It is enough to leave only the sixth column and independent division in North Korea.

Now, the weather is gradually improving, the grass grows everywhere and the eagles fly. The first column has all been mechanized or motorized. It is estimated that it will take about a week to reach the Mongolian grassland from near Suwon City in North Korea.

Everyone saw that Zhang Yunfei was going to transfer the first column to Mongolia, and everyone felt relieved. When the first column arrived in Mongolia, there would be three major columns on the Mongolian grassland, namely, the first column, the second column, and the fourth column.

This time, since we are going to fight Lao Maozi this time, we will naturally win the battle. The number of Lao Maozi's Far East Army has reached millions, and it is better than the No.30 Sixth Army in terms of equipment and numbers. Much stronger.

However, in this conflict with Lao Maozi in Outer Mongolia, it is impossible for Lao Maozi to suppress the entire Far East Army. Lao Maozi’s Far East Army is responsible for nearly 1000 million square kilometers from Siberia to the Pacific coast. Defense of a large area.

In addition, the German army has penetrated into the territory of the Soviet Union. The main force of the old Maozi’s Far Eastern Army has been gathered on the western front. The Far Eastern Army has transferred troops to the Soviet-German battlefield 5 times. The elite Soviet Army in the Far East basically no longer exists. The reduction, but most of the recruits are recruits, and their combat effectiveness is not the same as it was two or three years ago.

In addition, Lao Maozi's garrison in Mongolia consists of two armies, namely the 1st Army of the Mongolian-Soviet Army and the 2nd Army of the Mongolian-Soviet Army. The two armies have less than 20 people.

In view of this, Zhang Yunfei dared to attack Lao Maozi, and Zhang Yunfei also sent three columns, a total of 6 to [-] people, and there should be a great chance of winning the first battle. [

In the next few days, Zhang Yunfei focused his energy on the north, preparing for the first battle with the Soviet Union, but in South China, the war was still going on fiercely.

** mobilized more than 80 infantry divisions, plus several independent brigades, several artillery regiments, and a large number of auxiliary arms, etc., a total of about 150 million troops, to attack the little devil's South China Front Army.

In addition, the three main divisions of the Eighth Route Army, a total of 40 to [-] people, plus about [-] people from the main force of the New Fourth Army, also sent their divisions southward to attack the little devils together with the police.

The war in South China has been going on for more than a month, and now, the Chinese army has firmly gained the upper hand.

In order to support the Communist Party's southward operations, Zhang Yunfei also supported the Kuomintang with 2000 million rounds of rifle bullets, [-] boxes of grenades, and some artillery shells free of charge in March.

Zhang Yunfei's move made many high-level leaders of the government feel grateful to Zhang Yunfei. Even Lao Jiang personally sent Zhang Yunfei a letter of thanks.

The South China Front Army is one of the seven front armies of the Little Devils Army. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, there were a total of seven divisions with a total of 25 people. Now, the South China Front Army of the Little Devils has 50 divisions and a total of nearly [-] people.

However, in the past month or so, the Communist Party, the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army, and the little devils have fought dozens of battles, and more than [-] little devils have been annihilated. In front of the squadrons that are several times larger than their own, the little devils have retreated steadily .

Zhang Yunfei also pays close attention to the war in South China from time to time. Seeing that the squadron is basically sure to win, and it is only a matter of time before the recovery of the entire South China, Zhang Yunfei is also very pleased.

At the beginning of May, after a long journey, the 1st column finally entered Outer Mongolia and began to join forces with the 2nd and 4th columns.

On the vast grasslands of Outer Mongolia or on the Gobi Desert, teams of troops are marching, a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, raising dust all over the sky, and behind these tanks, there are also a large number of trucks.

There are a large number of soldiers on the trucks. All infantry regiments have been motorized. Everyone no longer needs to rely on their own legs to march. Everyone marches on large trucks.

In two days, the first column will reach the designated position. As long as the first column reaches the designated position, the battle will start immediately.

At present, the 2nd column and the 4th column have joined, and everyone is confronting the Soviet army and the Mongolian army. The two sides have been confronting each other for nearly ten days. The old Maozi has obviously increased his troops. Previously, there were only a few thousand Soviet troops. Now , The number of Soviet troops has reached tens of thousands.

In addition, tens of thousands of troops also came from the Mongolian army, and the two sides fell into a stalemate on this land of hundreds of square kilometers.

However, depending on the posture of the Soviet army, the Soviet army may do it within these two days.

Chen Erwa, the commander of the 2nd column, and Luo Jihua, the commander of the 4th column, have personally observed several times in the forward position, and saw that the Soviet army seemed to be ready for battle.

Sure enough, the next day, before the first column reached the designated position, the Soviet army first attacked the second and fourth columns.

Some time ago, the number of Soviet troops was small. Even with the addition of the Mongolian army, the number was still at a disadvantage. Now, with the arrival of a large number of reinforcements, the number of Soviet troops has increased dramatically, from a few thousand to tens of thousands. The Soviet Army believes that the time has come to do something.

The Mongolian army was the first to attack the soldiers' positions. At least tens of thousands of Mongolian troops attacked several positions of the soldiers.

Obviously, the Soviet army wanted to use these Mongolian troops to test the strength of the No.30 Sixth Army. The Soviet Army and the No.30 Sixth Army had never fought against each other, and their understanding of the No.30 Sixth Army was also very limited.

A position of the 2nd column. [

The soldiers are guarding the position. The soldiers have built the position for several days, but the order from above has not come down, and everyone has not taken the initiative to attack the Soviet army in the distance.

This is a large position, stationed with an infantry regiment of the 2st Division of the [-]nd Column Infantry, not far away, there is another position of the same size.

It is basically surrounded by undulating Gobi Desert, with sand and rocks everywhere, and relatively few vegetation. On such a Gobi Desert, the soldiers dug a lot of trenches and built a lot of fortifications.

On the battlefield, many soldiers were on guard. Suddenly, several soldiers shouted: "Comrades! The enemy is coming up!"

The head of this infantry regiment also saw the front. A large number of enemies are coming here. The number of enemies is at least a thousand. It looks like a large area. However, through the telescope, it can be seen that the enemies coming up are all Mongolian troops. At this time , Tens of thousands of Mongolian troops began to attack several positions of the 2nd or 4th column.

Seeing the enemy coming up, the commander immediately ordered: "Comrades! Get ready to fight."
