Age of Rebirth

Chapter 780: Zhukov makes a move

After regaining foreign affairs, in order to gain a foothold as soon as possible to deal with the powerful Soviet army, Tang Qiuli, who is familiar with history, naturally knows what each class needs most. To coordinate and resolve conflicts, foreigners will naturally not object to the person who brings them benefits, no matter he is red or any other color.

Wherever the reporter delegation went, there were voices of gratitude to Tang Qiuli and embrace of returning to China. The reporters did not see any resentment or resistance from foreigners, which made the reporters unbelievable , the red People's Revolutionary Party of the Communist Party of China, has ruled the country for more than ten years, but there is no evidence of its existence, except for the red slogans and slogans that are not completely covered on the mountain. In the minds of outsiders, history has already been turned over.

The reporters sent back a large number of manuscripts and photos with disbelief and novelty. For a while, the mainstream newspapers around the world were full of photos of Tang Qiuli, or about the shocking changes in foreign affairs. The excitement of returning to China, after a few rounds, the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which relied on rumors and deceit, couldn’t stand it anymore, and couldn’t find any new tricks, and gradually died down. a paragraph.

The Soviets were ashamed in front of the rest of the world. According to gossip, the great leader of the Soviet people, Comrade Stalin, was extremely annoyed by the disastrous defeat of the Propaganda Department on the front of public opinion. Even the guards guarding the gate were not spared. These ex-Soviet mouthpieces and theoretical experts who lost the lawsuit were escorted by Soviet soldiers to the Arctic Circle, where the natural conditions are extremely cruel, and left to fend for themselves. [

Tang Qiuli and the Soviets had a lot of lawsuits, each with their own unique tricks, and they were brilliant. Coupled with the big event of resuming the exercise of foreign sovereignty, the land of the Far East and Central Asia can be said to be full of hot spots. What surprised journalists and governments from all over the world was that both the Communist Party of China's ruling party and the largest opposition party, the CCP, did not express any opinions or declarations on the debate between Tang Qiuli and the Soviets.

It's all right, after all, Tang Qiuli is authorized by the National Government to handle foreign affairs affairs plenipotentiary, his voice can be regarded as the meaning of the National Government, but the silence of the CCP makes people feel unusual It's so weird. Thinking back, when the Communists launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, the CCP's attitude was so firm and its banner so clear, it won the hearts of all the people in one fell swoop, and finally stepped onto the stage of history.

In fact, foreigners and other political forces may not know much about the difficulties faced by the CCP at this time, but Tang Qiuli, who is familiar with history, knows everything. It must be that Stalin has created a huge problem for the CCP. In Yan'an, the five major leaders of the Communist Party of China all gathered in the cave dwelling of the Communist Party of China, watching a telegram from afar

Since Tang Qiuli's rapid rise in China, Stalin has had an indescribable hatred and disgust for this powerful figure. It is a kind of innate hatred among natural enemies that cannot be reconciled or compromised. Watching this man's rise in Chinese politics would bring him great trouble and pose a threat to the security of the Soviet.

Before he had figured out how to avoid troubles and threats, Tang Qiuli took the initiative to come to the door. He gave the Soviet Red Army a hard blow and gave Stalin a resounding slap in the face. If you can't take advantage of it, and temporarily lose a move with your fist, then use various means to create big trouble for Tang Qiuli before Zhukov does it. It caught his attention, this is a pawn that can be used, not to mention, the Soviet Union has funded the CCP for so many years, and it is time for them to repay the Soviet Union.

In the name of the Communist International, Stalin sent an instruction to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, "The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, in view of the damage caused by the new warlord Tang Qiuli abroad to the revolutionary cause of the bourgeoisie, the armed forces you have are at this critical moment. At any time, we should play our due role. In the Sino-Mongolian border area, on the logistics transportation line owned by Tang Qiuli’s army, a series of military operations against Tang Qiuli’s army should be launched, and positive actions should be taken to serve our great bourgeoisie. Contribute to the Cause, Executive Committee of the Comintern in Moscow."

This telegram from the Comintern did not allow any room for negotiation. It was a direct order to arm the CCP and launch a large-scale military operation against Tang Qiuli's army, putting the CCP in an extremely disadvantageous position, not to mention the situation in front of the CCP. Military strength, whether it is the opponent of Tang Qiuli's army, the Eighth Route Army is still on the territory divided by others.Stubborn development, just to attack the squadron that regained foreign territory, the common people still yell at the CCP as a traitor and a traitor?

Domestic public opinion has already regarded Tang Qiuli as a national hero. In all fairness, the leaders of the Chinese Communist Party welcome and rejoice in the Chinese Communist Party's recovery of foreign Chinese territory. Everyone has a Communist surname, so it is inconvenient to make a public statement. On this point, the leader of the Communist Party of China, Mao Zedong, is already lamenting, "We are too passive in this matter. What will the people in the country think of us? The advantages we have gained since the War of Resistance will be weakened a lot."

The Communist Party of China is in the top five major organizations. After all-night negotiations, the crime of this traitor must never be borne. Whether or not they can gain a foothold in the country is something that is not necessarily known. It is not possible to wipe out all the wealth of the family and go to Moscow to prostitute, right?

The CCP replied to the Comintern: "Moscow, the Executive Committee of the Comintern, in view of the current complicated situation in China, the CCP's armed forces should not provoke any conflicts, especially the domestic anti-Japanese forces. The main enemy of China is the Japanese aggressors. Under the premise, it is really difficult for the CCP to implement your request, and in the future, it will devote all its energy to fighting the Japanese invaders." The tone was tactful but firm.

The attitude of the CCP is very obvious, we just beat the Communists. As for how you Soviets and Tang Qiuli fought, we didn’t ask at all, and we didn’t want to ask. Stalin was also dizzy, he didn’t consider the Chinese Communists The national sentiment, especially with Mao Zedong's personality, is the least willing to be manipulated by others. This inexplicable telegram has a serious sequelae. Fear and vigilance that cannot be eliminated.

The CCP and the Eighth Route Army were not used by Comrade Stalin. Disappointed, Stalin authorized the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the CPSU to announce to the world that the final reason for sending troops abroad was that the great Soviet Red Army must deal with brutal suppression and bloodshed. It is the common wish of the proletariat all over the world to punish Tang Qiuli, the great warlord, executioner, and loyal running dog of imperialism who massacred foreign revolutionaries. A fig leaf that barely covers the body, and a far-fetched reason.

Although the Soviets' rhetoric is chaotic and their excuses are reluctant, their determination to reoccupy foreign countries and eliminate Tang Qiuli's troops will not change. This is also the letter of war issued by the Soviets to Tang Qiuli. Qiuli and Stalin also knew in their hearts, and Lieutenant General Zhukov, the commander of the Soviet First Army in the Far East, knew even more in his heart that this was a battle order issued by the Supreme Commander, and it was also the final timetable for his actions.

In late August, Zhukov finally made his move. The Soviet First Army in the Far East was divided into two groups. All the way started from Minusinsk, crossed the Yenisei River, followed the Tannu Mountains on the border between Summons and Mongolia, and entered the western part of the Russian Federation. The only passage in the area, Kazadewu Mountain Pass, is attacking and advancing. The Soviet army has 20 troops, 11 artillery pieces, [-] tanks, and [-] aircraft. The infantry is the first and second of the Far East Red Flag. Infantry Corps, First Guards Infantry Corps, Motorized Guards Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth and No.[-] Divisions.

All the way starting from Irkutsk, bypassing Lake Baikal, passing through Ulan-Ude and going straight to Kulun, the Soviet army has 12 troops, 11 artillery pieces, more than [-] tanks, and more than [-] aircraft The aircraft and infantry are the [-]rd and [-]th Infantry Army of the Red Banner, the [-]st and [-]rd Motorized Field Divisions, and the [-]th and No.[-] Field Infantry Brigades.

Tang Qiuli, who received the information from the special warfare unit, was greatly surprised. The Soviet army, uncharacteristically, placed the main direction of attack on the western region of the Outlanders. In the land, Feng Jiwu's troops, who were busy establishing local government, had six field infantry brigades and two cavalry brigades, with a total strength of more than 9 troops.

With more than 9 light infantry, without aviation cover and armored forces as the main assault force, the result is conceivable when facing 20 heavily armed Soviet mechanized troops. However, in the entire western part of the Outlaws, there is no dangerous terrain to rely on, which is more suitable for the assault and advance of the Soviet armored and mechanized troops. The troops in Feng Jiwu's hands are also scattered in various places.

Tang Qiuli broke out in a cold sweat. The battlefield he prepared on the main line of Hangai Mountain north of Kulun was to face all the troops of the Soviet Red Army. This time, only 12 troops came, but all of his troops were in this direction, while Feng The army that Jiwu belongs to has become a weak army. This is the Soviet version of avoiding the truth. Who is the commander of the Soviet army?

Tang Qiuli hurriedly ordered the special warfare unit to find out the name and rank of the Soviet commander. The information was quickly obtained. After seeing it, he suddenly realized that it was him. Tang Qiuli was no stranger to Zhukov, and even very familiar with him. Worshiping this famous general of the Soviet army, this time he met his opponent. [
