Age of Rebirth

Chapter 790 Eight Persuasion

The bait Tang Qiuli put on Hadassan really worked. Zhukov commanded the main force of the First Far East Army, marching day and night, rushing to this area.

Tang Qiuli was on the way and did not deploy troops to harass and block. He just wanted Zhukov to come straight to Hadassan without hindrance. No reason.

The red tsar in the Kremlin, the great leader of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Army General Staff who obeyed Stalin's orders, did not whip Zhukov, Comrade Stalin, did not allow the heroic Soviet Red Army troops to appear again The tragedy of the Far East Special Army being completely annihilated in the Hujirt Mountains will make him lose face, especially in front of those European powers.

It’s not that Zhukov has no brains. The main force under the command of Tang Qiuli, with superior strength and firepower, surrounded and did not attack Hadassan’s besieged Vuchkov’s troops. This made Zhukov extremely disturbed. He judged that this It might be a trap, but through a series of battles, he saw Tang Qiuli's strategies and methods, and also understood the combat effectiveness of the squadron. [

According to his idea, the main force of the group army should be deployed on the spot in the western region of the Outlanders, annihilate the squadrons scattered in various places, gradually approach Kulun, and then organize a force of more than 15 people to attack from the outside. * The eastern region is approaching Kulun, and it is still a trend of encirclement from east to west.

Even if Tang Qiuli wiped out Vuchkov's troops, he would not be able to get away immediately. It would be worth exchanging the 12 people of Vuchkov's army for Tang Qiuli's entire corps. After his plan was reported to the Far East Military Region, it was because the matter was of great importance , The military region did not dare to make a decision, and reported it to the Soviet General Staff.

The General Staff sent back a telegram, not only rejected Zhukov’s suggestion, but also denied all his ideas, and strictly ordered Zhukov to rescue Vuchkov immediately. Judging from the wording of this telegram, Zhukov believed that this was the opinion of Comrade Supreme Commander Stalin Well, even though he is so courageous, with eight rebellious bones growing on the back of his head, he doesn't dare to oppose the opinions of the great leader, so he can only fully implement them.

Zhukov had a premonition that the result of the main force of his group army might not be much better than that of Vuchkov. Before he reached Hadasan, Vuchkov's entire army would definitely be wiped out, and Tang Qiuli would free up his hands to deal with him with all his strength. The Chinese blocking force that mysteriously disappeared behind him.

If the Kazadewu pass is blocked again, there is no way out for him to retreat. Although he was extremely disturbed and even predicted the outcome of the battle, Zhukov still ordered the troops without hesitation, marching day and night, speeding up, with a kind of moth The tragedy of throwing fire.

According to Stalin's opinion, the Soviet Army's General Staff sent an order to rescue Vuchkov's troops, which was the direct reason why Zhukov and his main force of the First Far East Army were put in a desperate situation. Zhukov resolutely carried out the order out of a The soldier's sense of responsibility, he condensed all his thoughts and predictions on the outcome of the war in a letter, sent someone to Moscow, and sent it directly to Comrade Stalin.

There is one more thing, Zhukov did not expect that Tang Qiuli had already transferred the main force of a regiment from the inland, and the meeting point of their march was the Uliasutai area, which was the only way to Hadassan. Another encirclement area that Tang Qiuli had preset for Zhukov was another sharp knife to slaughter the Soviet Union's First Army in the Far East.

To the west of Kulun, in the encirclement circle of Hadassan area, at the corps headquarters, a day later, Tang Qiuli asked several captured Soviet officers to send a letter of persuasion to Lieutenant General Vuchkov, but there was no reply. The situation is that several corpses were hung in front of the Soviet positions.

Tang Qiuli understood that Vuchkov, a tough Bolshevik, would not surrender at all, but he still did not give up. Anyway, there was still time, so he decided to put some pressure on Vuchkov, which was also a warning, to destroy his illusions, and ordered Zheng Yong, concentrate a group of artillery, blast the Soviet army's circular position, and then look at Vuchkov's reaction.

There was a loud bang, and the Hadassan battlefield, which had been quiet all day and night, became agitated again. Swarms of artillery rained down on the Soviet positions with precision. Fuchkov regarded it as a life-saving straw. In 10 minutes, it was violently and concentrated shelling, blasting a gap as wide as one kilometer.

The Soviet tanks at the shelling site immediately turned into burning fireballs, billowing thick smoke and flames rising, mixed with the violent explosion of martyrdom explosives, the entire Soviet army shook, thinking that the squadron had begun to attack, and so on. When the Soviet soldiers climbed to the fortifications tremblingly, they found that they saw nothing, only one position was under the torment of shelling.

Vuchkov was furious, and in order to boost morale, he immediately ordered all the artillery firepower in the encirclement to fight back immediately, destroying the artillery positions of the squadron.

Several shots were fired from the Soviet positions. This is a [-]-caliber howitzer. Its power is astonishing. Hundreds of howitzers fired in unison. The human artillery finally showed up. After searching for more than a day, they didn't find it.

"Order, all artillery groups, immediately lock on the Soviet artillery positions, cover artillery," Zheng Yong hastily issued an order, thousands of artillery salvos, the scene is much more popular than the Soviet artillery, this burst of wild fire, the Soviet army The positions are so dense that a single shot can knock down a bunch of people, not to mention the crowded Soviet artillery.

Fifteen minutes later, the Soviet artillery was completely suppressed, and they were dumb at that time. Zheng Yong did not intend to let go of this rare opportunity, and ordered the artillery group to continue beating until the Soviet artillery was completely destroyed.

Commander Zheng Yong fought happily, but he didn't know that someone in the headquarters grinned in distress, and he lost hundreds of large-caliber howitzers in this effort. If he could get it, he would hit the Japanese When he was in the artillery, he was so energetic. Zheng Yong, a prodigal son, was born as a cannon player, so he didn't know how to feel bad.

Tang Qiuli babbled here, feeling sorry for the howitzers that were blown up. Zheng Yong fought more and more vigorously, causing fireworks to explode in the encirclement. Woolen cloth.

After Tang Qiuli scolded Zheng Yong, he hated Chekov again. If this stubborn guy surrendered obediently, it would save me a lot of cannon shots and how many howitzers I picked up.

The shelling stopped, and the Soviet positions inside the encirclement were shrouded in thick gunpowder smoke, and no more cannon shots came over. It is estimated that they were all killed by Zheng Yong's artillery. let's go. [

This is the last time to persuade to surrender, and it is also the last chance for Lieutenant General Vuchkov and more than 8 Soviet soldiers. Zhukov has already passed the Kobd area, and in one day and one night, he will arrive at Uliasutai. It took an extra day and night to run to Hadassan.

Tang Qiuli gave Vuchkov two hours to reply, and he wrote in his letter of persuasion: "Lieutenant General Vuchkov of the Soviet Red Army, your troops are already trapped in a tight siege. Look out to break through the siege and keep the rescuers away. Just now your artillery The troops have been completely destroyed, and the temporary fortifications that your Excellency built with tanks according to General Zhukov's suggestion are even more vulnerable."

"On the road before your Excellency, there is only one choice, and that is to lay down your arms and surrender to the squadron. I guarantee the honor of soldiers that as long as you lay down your weapons, I will guarantee the safety of all Soviet prisoners of war and give Your due treatment, please think twice, for the sake of the lives of more than 8 soldiers, otherwise, on the land of China, we are the only ones, and we will never be soft on the invaders. As long as two hours, what you call The ring fortifications of the tanks will be reduced to ashes."

Lieutenant General Vuchkov sat on the medicine box and listened to the staff read Tang Qiuli's letter, his face was ashen and defeated. He believed that the squadron commander opposite him was telling the truth. The soldiers were sent to the encirclement of the squadron, because of his knowledge, they ruined the lives of all artillery and tens of thousands of soldiers.

Just now, he contacted Zhukov, and the comrade commander asked him to stick to it for two days, but just now, he witnessed the intensity of the Chinese squadron's shelling, and he couldn't hold on for two hours. In the hopeless situation, Vuchkov's mind was in a mess.

The divisions, brigade divisions, brigade commanders, and political commissars gathered around him all stared at the painful expression of Comrade Commander. In fact, everyone is very clear about the situation they are facing. , had it not been for the destruction of the artillery, but had fallen on the ring, the fortifications would have been breached long ago.

They were either prisoners or corpses. This was a hopeless battle. Looking at the morale of the soldiers, it was extremely low. Vuchkov was in a daze for a while. He couldn't make up his mind about such a big matter, so he decided to convene the party committee. Enlarge the meeting and adopt a show of hands to decide the fate of this force.

Lieutenant General Fuchikov had just finished Tang Qiuli's belief in persuading surrender, and the venue exploded. Most of the military commanders agreed to lay down their weapons. For the lives of more than 8 soldiers, there was no so-called resistance. The political commissars are unanimously opposed to surrender. Their reasoning is simple. The great Soviet Red Army soldiers will never surrender to the enemy and invaders, let alone put down their weapons and stop fighting. This is a glorious moment to sacrifice for our great motherland.

The tone of the meeting was set like this. If you don’t surrender, you will fight to the end. Vuchkov also knew that if he ordered the troops to surrender, even if he returned to the Soviet Union, he would be shot and his relatives would be hurt. It would be better to be a martyr of the Soviet Union.

After the political commissars at all levels returned to the army, they immediately convened a meeting of party members and Communist Youth League members to form a death squad. , was instigated into the hopeless death squads.
