Age of Rebirth

Analyzing normally, the suggestion of Marshal von Strangs, the Chief of the German General Staff, is completely correct and in line with common sense. The reason why Hitler formed a strategic axis relationship with Japan was that he hoped to use Japan's military power to expand the relationship between the east and the west. Direction, flanking the Soviet Union.

Considering the land area and population of the Soviet Union, it is a huge monster after all, and the potential for war is very great. If Japan can contain a part of the Soviet Union's military power, it will definitely be beneficial and harmless to Germany. There are many benefits!

Moreover, in the secret agreement between Germany and Japan, there is also the content of Japan sending troops to the Far East of the Soviet Union and Germany attacking the European part of the Soviet Union. After hegemony, Hitler was very disappointed with the Japanese. From the bottom of his heart, he had already listed the Japanese as a country that did not speak of credibility and turned back on promises.

In terms of Hitler's personality, the Japanese didn't abide by the agreement and went it alone without Germany. It felt like they were being tricked by the Japanese. I'm afraid, apart from hatred and contempt, he lacked any kindness.

Hearing that his chief of staff had made such a proposal, Hitler was furious immediately, and his shrill voice echoed in the office: "Strance, I don't know if you have gone through your brain before making this stupid and naive suggestion." Think about it carefully, 'Project Barbarossa' is a decisive war concerning whether Germany can eventually unify Europe, how could you think of such a piece of life-and-death information to be notified to those fishermen who are only qualified to fish by the sea?"

Marshal von Struns, blushed by Hitler's harsh words, swallowed dryly, and was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground.

I probably also felt that my words were too heavy.Hitler's tone slowed down, and he continued: "Forgive me, Strong, I am not angry with you, but because you are my chief of staff, it is dangerous to have such immature ideas! Not only can you not inform Japan People, and tell Heinrich to keep the news tightly sealed from the Japanese. Because, I don’t trust them!”

"The Japanese, we can't count on them. Their strategic center of gravity has shifted to the Pacific Ocean. Moreover, I have serious doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. The so-called elite Kwantung Army is on the outer Xing'an Mountains in the Far East. The Russian army, which is almost equal in strength, has been stalemate for more than two years without making any achievements. Such an army. How much can you expect him to play?"

"At this point, my old friend Tang Qiuli's troops showed very strong combat effectiveness. In the two Outer Mongolia Wars, they both used inferior forces to severely injure the Russians. Moreover, this time they attracted more than 400 soldiers. The Ten Thousand Russian Army, assembled in the east, implemented the "Barbarossa Plan" for us, creating an extremely favorable situation. Therefore, for the Japanese, we should not expect too much, they are all self-righteous and selfish guys .”

Hitler's smoke bombs ordered Marshal von Kleidman's Third Army Group to stop attacking the Anglo-American coalition forces on the British mainland. It was very successful. It not only deceived the Soviet intelligence agencies, but also allowed Stalin to concentrate on dealing with Tang Qiu. Li and the Japanese Kwantung Army also greatly relieved the Anglo-American Allied Forces, which were in a stagnant state in the UK and were seeing no support.

In fact, Germany's elite troops were secretly transferred to the Polish side of the Soviet-Polish border, and the "Barbarossa Project" was in full swing. The Soviets basically knew nothing about these.

On February [-], Stalin, the supreme leader of the Soviet Union, held a meeting of the Politburo of the CPSU Central Committee in the Kremlin. At the meeting, he determined the timetable for the third Outer Mongolia War and the second Far East War. The Soviet army must launch an attack on the independent divisions in Outer Mongolia in early March, and attack the Japanese Kwantung Army on the outer Khingan Mountains in mid-March.

At the meeting of the Internal Political Bureau, the designation of the Soviet troops assembled in the East was determined. The 400 million troops mobilized from the European direction were organized into three front armies, and the designation was the Outer Mongolia Front Army, consisting of 160 million troops. The commander and political commissar General Vasilevsky, the Waixinganling Front Army, consisting of 150 million troops, the commander and political commissar is General Kilganin, and the Baikal Lake Front Army, consisting of 100 million troops, the commander and political commissar is Gregarif general.

Among them, the Outer Mongolia Front Army and the Baikal Front Army, and the independent divisions in Outer Mongolia are the targets of combat. The Outer Xing'anling Front Army will cooperate with Zhukov's Far East Front Army to carry out combat missions against the Japanese Kwantung Army.

Stalin looked very excited. The pipe in his hand was extinguished for a long time without noticing it. He looked at General Vasilevsky, the commander and political commissar of the Outer Mongolia Front Army, and said: "Comrade Vasilevsky, your opponent It is Tang Qiuli, a Chinese who is known for his cunning and cunning. It will lead to defeat!"

Seeing General Vasilevsky listening intently to his own words, Stalin was very satisfied with his attitude, and then said: "In the first Outer Mongolian War, Zhukov was defeated by this man. Tang Qiuli's combat style, the second time I, Outer Mongolia War, that traitor, Kurygin, the disgrace of the Soviet Red Army, could have won, but because of his incompetence and stupidity, hundreds of thousands of troops in the Far Eastern Military Region , buried by the Selenge River."

Hearing Stalin's words, members of the Politburo of the CPSU and senior military generals who attended the meeting felt indescribable, "Zhukov's defeat also meant that hundreds of thousands of troops were lost. In order to redeem these few 10 people, the Soviet Union paid a huge economic price, just a sentence is justifiable, let it be lightly exposed, Zhukov still holds a heavy army, and is a person trusted by Comrade Stalin."

"Kurekin is out of luck. A defeat is a traitor and a disgrace to the Red Army. Not only is his reputation ruined, but even the families of most of the officers above the school level in the former Far Eastern Military Region were ruined by Beria. Some of them were imprisoned in concentration camps, and some of them disappeared into the world forever. When I think about it, it’s quite chilling. If you want to blame it, you can blame Kulykin himself, and the surrender statement should not be released publicly.”

Stalin also seemed to remember that when he fought against Tang Qiuli in Outer Mongolia, he showed his disastrous experience, his face became serious, and said: "Comrade Vasilevsky, there are two main points in the way the cunning Tang Qiuli commanded the battle. It's an ambush, and the second is to surround the spot for reinforcements, you must keep these two points firmly in mind."

"However, this time, I hope that the cunning and insidious Chinese Tang Qiuli will not change the way of fighting. The Outer Mongolia Front Army will not be afraid of being ambushed by the independent division troops, let alone be surrounded by him. I have invested 260 million troops , The final result of ambushes and reinforcements will be that Tang Qiuli's troops will be surrounded by our superior forces. Therefore, Comrade Vasilevsky, you must gather all the troops together and advance steadily to form a heavy army group. "

"After the offensive begins, don't be disturbed by any situation. We must firmly capture Kulun. It is best to attract Tang Qiuli's main force to fight with us repeatedly at any point from the east of the Ural Mountains to the outskirts of Kulun. Relying on our superior force, consume it until it is wiped out under the city of Kulun. After your troops start to attack, the Baikal Front Army of General Gregarif will also attack from the direction of Irkutsk and Ulan-Ude later. , advancing towards Cullen."

"Which unit entered Kulun first, I will submit it to the Politburo for consideration and award the unit the honorary title of 'Guards'. Also, there will not be much hindrance on your way of attack. Less than [-] combat aircraft were carrying out saturation bombing on all targets on the ground, I think, this is a war with little suspense, maybe, Outer Mongolia is not the place where our great Soviet Red Army fighters stopped their footsteps!"

"As long as the troops of the Chinese Tang Qiuli are wiped out, there will be no obstacles that can stop us from going further south," Stalin said the last sentence in a voice almost to himself.

All the members of the Political Bureau of the CPSU and military generals who participated in the meeting were shocked. They all understood the hidden meaning of Comrade Stalin's words. After the occupation of Outer Mongolia, the Soviet Red Army may continue to attack Inner Mongolia in China. ,my Lord!Could it be that Comrade Stalin wants to fight an all-out war with the Chinese?

Everyone believes that Comrade Stalin can definitely issue such an order. Many people here have heard Comrade Stalin more than once. For the beginning of this century, when Russia was in Northeast China at that time, it was fighting with the Japanese for control of the Northeast. It was a disastrous defeat, and I regret it, otherwise, the current territory of the Soviet Union would at least have hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of rich and vast black land.

Several members of the Politburo and senior generals of the General Staff felt that Comrade Stalin's idea was very dangerous. Once the 400 million troops transferred from Europe were caught in a protracted war against the Chinese mainland, in case the Germans ended After the British war, what should we do if we free up our hands and attack the Soviet Union?

What's more, that Chinese, Tang Qiuli, rose up in northern China, and his roots are also in northern China. He will never sit back and watch the Soviet army attack the Inner Mongolia region. The Soviet Union has a vast territory. Isn't China a behemoth? , Can the Soviet Union have a chance of winning?

If things go on like this, the Soviet Union will perish. Although I disagree with it in my heart, no one dares to act like a horse. Besides, Comrade Stalin is just talking. It is best not to be a spoiler, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious!
