Age of Rebirth

The officials around Sheng Shicai shouted for a while, Superintendent Sheng doesn't have many opportunities to treat guests. Throughout the year, it is harder to eat the big guy's business, eat his old man's food, think about it, just now I was going to run away, blink of an eye In the meantime, the dark clouds cleared and the sun was shining brightly. There is nothing more ups and downs in life than this. Superintendent Sheng was happy, and of course everyone relaxed. A group of officials, talking and laughing, got into their cars and drove away.

Sheng Shicai, who was in a good mood, just got out of the car when he received a report from the Chief of Staff of the Supervisory Office, "Chen Bing's Northwest Five Horse Troops on the front line in Hami had already evacuated from Xingxing Gorge 10 minutes ago and returned to their original station. Before that, its commander, Chief of Staff Ganma sent a letter."

"Letter to the cloud, the five horses' long-distance pull of the army was ordered by Vice Chairman Tang of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government to exercise the coordination and maneuverability of the various departments of the Northwest Military Joint Defense. Prepare to fight the Soviet army's attack on the Northwest, because the matter is confidential, and the matter has not been reported, please forgive me, Superintendent Sheng!"

Sheng Shicai curled his lips, and said to himself, "Going to the grave to burn newspapers, fooling the ghosts? The meat-headed local tyrants of the Northwest Wuma have such knowledge. Besides, with their family background, they dare not go to the ground in Xinjiang. To be presumptuous is to have Tang Qiuli's backing, what kind of training troops, nonsense, is it to put pressure on yourself!"

However, it would be best for the Northwest Five Horses to withdraw their troops, and pull out a thorn in their heart. Otherwise, Sheng Shicai could do nothing if he stayed at the border between Xinjiang and Gansu. He was acting on orders, and Xinjiang was still within the territory of the Republic of China. Officially, there is no reason to request the withdrawal of troops, but 10,000+ soldiers from other forces are around.Maybe when I will pounce on it, take a bite, and I can sleep peacefully? [

Everything that should go has gone, and the dark clouds hanging over his head have cleared, that night.The most luxurious hotel in Dihua is full of guests and guests. There are prominent figures in Dihua City, military and political leaders from all walks of life, who are attending the banquet hosted by Governor Sheng. Sheng Shicai is the protagonist of the banquet.Amidst the flattering words, get drunk.

On the Saiyinshanda battlefield in southern Outer Mongolia, some changes have taken place. The three armies of the Soviet Outer Mongolia Front Army, with more than 140 troops, braved the indiscriminate bombing and fighter jets of Liu Cuigang's Northern Flying Group, marching forcefully regardless of casualties .At [-] o'clock in the morning on April [-]th, we arrived at a distance of more than [-] kilometers from the first line of defense outside Saiyinshanda. According to the current marching speed of the Soviet army, on the evening of April [-]th, we could reach the first line of defense of the Independent Division. The defenders above exchanged fire.

The news spread to Sai Yinshanda, the independent division headquarters, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.Division commander Tang Qiuli is in the office, talking with Shanhu and Chutian who have returned to the army.

On the plane back to Saiyinshanda, Shanhu pondered all the way, and also pondered a little bit. He probably felt that he was a little reckless this time, so after returning to the headquarters, he greeted Tang Qiuli without waiting for Tang Qiuli to stare. Several secret guards.Move the box of gold that Sheng Shicai gave to Tang Qiuli into Tang Qiuli's office.

"Report to the commander, Huang Shanhu, the captain of the security brigade, has completed the task of rescuing the special warfare detachment and returned to the team smoothly. He also raised 350 taels of gold for the army, please accept it!" Shan Hu said with a smile, completely ignoring Tang Qiuli A tense face.

Chu Tian was not as casual as Shan Hu. He lowered his head and followed behind Shan Hu without saying a word. He was already mentally prepared to be punished or dismissed for investigation. Being besieged in Kazakhstan this time is enough for the teacher to be furious!

Tang Qiuli stared at Shanhu and Chutian, and remained silent for a while. From the bottom of his heart, he really didn't know what to say. At this moment, Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe hurried in, "Teacher, go ahead." According to the report of the reconnaissance troops, the three armies of the Soviet Army have more than 140 troops, and despite the air strikes of the Northern Flying Group, they have already entered the Altan Shire area, and there are still more than [-] kilometers away from the first line of defense of our army. !"

Tang Qiuli withdrew his gaze from Shanhu and Chutian, and said viciously: "I'll deal with you two when I have time, Chutian, don't poke here, go back to the army quickly, take a rest, and wait for me The command!"

Shan Hu didn't care, but Chu Tian secretly heaved a sigh of relief, "So I escaped this violent training!" He secretly rejoiced, and after hastily saluting, he quickly slipped away, and Shan Hu also ran away with a secret smile.

In the office, only Tang Qiuli and Zhao Yuhe were left. In other rooms, the sound of "tick-tick!" from the key added a little tension to the atmosphere.

Tang Qiuli asked: "Yuhe, the Soviet troops who entered the Altanshire area did not have heavy equipment to follow? Are there any armored troops to follow? How long will it take to approach our first line of defense? "

Zhao Yuhe glanced at the information in his hand, and replied: "The situation is like this. According to the report of the reconnaissance troops, the Soviet troops who marched forcibly left a large number of heavy equipment behind, because Commander Liu's troops The air strikes were intensive, the Soviet tank troops suffered heavy losses, and they did not keep up with the pace of the infantry. According to the current marching speed of the Soviet army, they will exchange fire with the troops on my first line of defense around [-] o'clock tomorrow evening at the latest!"

Tang Qiuli looked at the military map of Outer Mongolia, and did not speak for a long time. His eyes flashed with light of thought, and his face was calm. It seemed that the news did not have a great impact on him. In other words, more than [-] Soviet troops approached. expected.

Zhao Yuhe became a little anxious, and suggested: "Master, the current position of the Soviet vanguard is just within the left and right range of the first to sixth brigades of the directly subordinate corps. I think the troops should be ordered to attack tonight. , launch a sudden attack on the Soviet army to slow down the speed of the Soviet army's advance, and in addition, armored troops should be dispatched to deal a head-on blow to the Soviet army in the Altanshire area!"

"The Soviet army does not have armored troops and heavy equipment to follow, and we have the cooperation of aviation. This is an excellent opportunity to beat the Soviet army. Otherwise, when the follow-up troops of the Soviet Outer Mongolia Front Army arrive, there will be no such good opportunity!"

But Tang Qiuli shook his head lightly, and said flatly: "The first to sixth brigades stand still, and ordered Liu Cuigang's Northern Flying Group to focus on air strikes on the troops of the three Soviet armies, Niangziguan on the first line of defense. The troops of the six brigades of the Garrison Corps retreat to the second line of defense!"

Zhao Yuhe was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Master, no, less than forty kilometers behind the second line of defense is Sai Yinshanda. If we don't frustrate the Soviet army on the first line of defense, the battle behind will be difficult!"

Tang Qiuli said with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, "Yuhe, I said that the battle of Saiyinshanda may not be fought. Looking at it now, it must not be fought. Okay, Yuhe , no fuss, the Soviet army is eager to enter, we will give way, there is no need to fight them desperately, let's pass the order!"

Zhao Yuhe still wanted to stick to his opinion, but seeing the teacher's face, the peace was unquestionable, and he swallowed the words when he got to his lips. He couldn't figure out the teacher's real intention, why he was so sure, Sai Yinshanda couldn't fight , Is it related to the actions of the Germans that the teacher once said? [

Zhao Yuhe left full of doubts, Tang Qiuli was the only one left in the house, with the chilly north wind blowing up the dead leaves and grass, and whirling and aimlessly dancing in the courtyard, it was already It's early April, and the prairie of Outer Mongolia is still chilly, without any breath of spring.

The day that can change the world pattern is coming soon. It is now around 6:22 am on April [-]th. The time when Hitler decided to attack the Soviets was at dawn on April [-]th. This is the same as recorded in history. However, the difference is that the date of the attack was delayed by a full year, and it was not on June [-] in history, but earlier on April [-]. All of this changed because of myself.

According to normal circumstances, tonight, no later than midnight, the German General Staff will follow Hitler's order to send a top-secret telegram to inform me of the specific time of attack, so I can wait patiently!

Therefore, the three armies of the Soviet Army with more than [-] troops approached the vicinity of Sai Yinshanda. Tang Qiuli did not take it seriously. Time was not on the side of the Soviets. All the troops of the Soviet army should be pulled back to Europe, otherwise, Stalin would have to give up the European part and flee.

Hitler's action against the Soviets not only avoided a major war, but also brought a glimmer of life to the desperate Japanese Kwantung Army. Otherwise, under the siege of more than 400 million Soviet troops, the Kwantung Army would not be able to hold out for a few days It's time.

Tang Qiuli praised the combat effectiveness of the Kwantung Army. He was attacked from all sides, but he still persisted until now. With Tang Qiuli's thinking, it would be best for Zhukov to wipe out the entire Japanese Kwantung Army. , the ensuing Northeast Campaign was much easier to fight. However, the Soviet Army did not clear up the Japanese Kwantung Army tonight, and it would never have a chance. With the sound of the Soviet-German War artillery, Stalin would mobilize all his troops. go back.

At this moment, Tang Qiuli is in a very happy mood. The layout of the Far East is being realized step by step according to his own conception. The layout of the previous few years has only been harvested today. The Japanese Kwantung Army was already a dog with its spine broken, and even if it was lucky not to be wiped out by Zhukov this time, it would have suffered heavy losses and suffered serious damage.

"It seems that I have to thank Stalin for taking action and creating convenient conditions for the recovery of the Northeast in the future. I competed with the Soviet Army and the Japanese Kwantung Army in Outer Mongolia and the Far East. In the end, I was the one who picked up the cheapest!" Thinking of this , Tang Qiuli smiled calmly, looked across the sky, and looked at the Far East battlefield where the Soviet Army and the Japanese Kwantung Army were fighting.
