Revolution 1938

The battle outside the city of Novosibirsk is still going on, with artillery fire all over the sky, raging corpses.The Soviets were cautious at the beginning, and regularly carried out frontal group charges, testing the bottom line of the Belarusians on the opposite side.

However, after a long time, the Soviets couldn't help it anymore. With the arrival of follow-up reinforcements, especially the arrival of two cavalry divisions, the Soviets began to attack more actively. The detours on both sides of the cavalry division were obviously aimed at comprehensive Surrounded by the Belarusians on the opposite side.

Of course, this is also expected by Ergou who has been away for several days.Just as the Soviet cavalry appeared on both sides of the position, earth-shattering explosions resounded through the sky.After the Soviet cavalry division lost [-]% of its military strength, it was sent three in and three out by the Cavalry Guards of the Knights.It can be regarded as dispelling the ambitions of the Soviets.

However, the White Russians were not having a good time. Although they repelled the attack of the Soviet cavalry division, their own losses were close to [-]%, and the cavalry losses on both sides were almost the same.It was also unable to carry out large-scale cavalry duels, and finally, each started a small-scale infiltration operation.

After all, the replenishment of the Soviet Union's troops needs to be replenished on a weekly basis.Now the rhythm of the battle outside the entire Novosibirsk city is almost a week, and the two sides are fighting each other.

At this time, the entire Siberia region is also in a battle, and the flames of war are raging.attracted the attention of the whole world.

Outside the Sea of ​​Japan, the Japanese and Korean Front Army was still fighting fiercely with the Red Flag Far East First Independent Army. Since the Japanese troops in other areas had also begun to attack, the strength of the Red Flag Far East First Independent Army was also stretched.In the end, they could only stick to the important cities, and gave up the vast wilderness and forests.

In the periphery of Outer Mongolia, the so-called Chinese People's Liberation Army made the whole incident even more incomprehensible. While the Japanese were attacking the whole of Siberia and beating up the Soviets, the People's Liberation Army easily seized the territory of Outer Mongolia. In southern Mongolia, when the Japanese faced these Chinese people, it was as if they had seen a plague god, and they dared not face them head-on.

However, the Soviet Union, which once alone broke through the multinational intervention army and established itself as a powerful country, is now extremely weak. Not only can it not resist the Japanese attack, but even the reinforcements they sent from the west cannot break through the inexplicable army. The so-called Knights of White Russia.

In the eyes of the British and Americans, the so-called Knights themselves were only used to make trouble for the Soviets.The other is to expand a small business for their own arms dealers.To earn pocket money, therefore, even if those arms dealers sell rifles with nearly worn out rifles or second-hand modified artillery, the diplomats who make connections don't have any opinions.

However, it now appears that they miscalculated. In Novosibirsk, these Belarusians and Soviet reinforcements fought on par. Wuluan's tactics and combat power were not what they originally imagined.

In the south of Novosibirsk, these Belarusians did not know how to win the support of local traditional forces. The entire Kazakhstan has become the rear of the Belarusians, and at this moment they are about to declare the founding of the country.

Of course, this is also the mental activity of the foreign affairs personnel of the United Kingdom and the United States. For Germany, at this time, they are somewhat agitated.In Berlin's mustache heart, he seems to start his European battle ahead of schedule at this time, but unfortunately, his army is not ready yet.

Because of the information obtained from the Chinese Workers' Party, especially those tactical information, whether it is the German Wehrmacht or his own SS, it is believed that compared with it, the Chinese Communist Party is still inferior in all aspects, so It's not time to really start.

However, there is another kind of thinking in Xiao Huzi's heart. These things of the Chinese Workers' Party are supported by the Soviets, but the Soviets were beaten to death by the Japanese, and the Japanese saw that the Chinese Workers' Party was afraid .What is the dialectical relationship between the three of them?

At this time, because of the Japanese and the so-called White Russian Knights, the Soviets had already entered a state of military readiness in advance.According to reliable sources, the Soviets have devoted most of their resources to military production.

For Mustache, this was something he didn't want to see, because it would disrupt his preparations.In his thinking, Germany should first retake the territory seized by Poland, and then turn around and teach the bastard France a lesson, and then consider going to the Soviet Union.

But now, if he doesn't do anything, then maybe the Soviet Union will become a huge military group that he can't touch, and it is very likely that he will bite him in turn, which makes Mustache feel a little uncertain at this time.

"Himmler, let everyone come to my place once you have time."

After thinking for a whole day, Mustache finally dialed the phone and began to inform his subordinates to discuss the Soviet Union.

At this time, in the political center of Moscow, Stalin also silently smoked his pipe, considering the next step of the situation.

According to the telegram from Marshal Semyon Mikhailovich Budyonny, he had already started a confrontation with the group of White Russian forces known as the Knights in the suburbs of Novosibirsk, but the strength of the opponent was obviously beyond imagination. , Under the uninterrupted charge initiated by the marshal, those White Russians still maintained high morale and held their positions tightly.There was no sign of backing down at all.

And in the area further south near Central Asia, Kazakhstan, which had just joined the Federation, had fallen, and the 10 cavalry troops in Kazakhstan disappeared so suddenly.There was no splash.

In the further south, although those lands belong to the Soviet Union, the local foreign forces have seriously eroded them. Although they have sent orders to counterattack to the north many times, the local garrison is prevaricating with various reasons. Of course, he also Understand, this is the method of those British guys.

In Marshal Semyon Mikhailovich Budyonny's telegram, he complained that he had been delayed for nearly half a month in Chelyabinsk, although he did not explain the reason.There is no need to explain the reason, because what the marshal means is that if you can't win, don't blame him.

However, these contents, combined with the news from the Far East at this time, all illustrate a problem, that is, the current Soviet Red Army's combat power has reached the limit of weakness.

"Could it be that Su Fan was wrong?"

At this time, this idea emerged in Stalin's mind.But before he could suppress these thoughts, the door of his office was opened.

"Dear Comrade Stalin, there is an urgent telegram from the Far East."

The one who opened the door was Nikolai? Ivanovich? Yezhov. Although he had long been a thorn in Stalin's side, in Moscow, only this guy knew the affairs of the Far East best. Move the careerist in front of you.

"Comrade Yezhov, what news, I don't think it will be too serious."

"Yes, Comrade Stalin."

Nikolai Ivanovich Yezhof lowered his head and opened the telegram folder in his hand, looked at the content inside, and then looked up at Stalin who looked haggard in front of him.Read carefully.

"General Shteln called, and it has been three days since Khabarovsk could not be contacted, and the investigators sent reported that Khabarovsk was surrounded by the Japanese at this time, and no gunshots could be heard up.

Therefore, there is reason to believe that Khabarovsk has fallen.Comrade Atosnovsky, who took full command of the Northeast Front in Khabarovsk, should have been killed or captured by the Japanese army, and the defense command of the entire Eastern Siberia has been cut off.

General Shteln said that at this time, his Red Banner Far East First Independent Army had suffered close to [-]% casualties and could only rely on cities or battle forts for defense. He hoped that Moscow would urge the arrival of reinforcements as soon as possible. "

After saying this, Nikolai? Ivanovich? Yezhov closed the folder and waited quietly.Stalin, on the other hand, smoked his corncob pipe in silence, raised his bloodshot eyes for a long time, stared at Yezhov and asked.

"Comrade Yezhov, in your judgment, how long can the defense of East Siberia last?"

"If the Japanese don't increase their troops, I think they can last for a month. However, according to our news, the Japanese have sent two reserve divisions from the mainland to North Korea. I think they will soon be devoted to attacking us. Go on the offensive."

"Marshal Budyonny, how long will it take to break the blockade of Novosibirsk?"

"It should be easy for the Marshal to defeat Novosibirsk's blockade. Due to the capacity bottleneck of the Siberian Railway, the infantry troops are basically fighting now, so the battle is a bit stalemate, but when our artillery and armored troops arrive, break through Novosibirsk Still easy.

However, according to the news we have now, those Belarusians have already dismantled more than 20 kilometers of railroad tracks, because even if Marshal Budyonny regained Novosibirsk, he still has to face the problem of repairing the railway. I estimate that it will take at least a month It takes more time to reach the defense zone of the Red Flag Far East Second Independent Army.It is estimated that we will not be able to reach East Siberia this year.”

"why?"

"Comrade Stalin, it's July now, and August will be a month later. According to news, the Japanese have already started to attack along the Siberian Railway from northern Outer Mongolia. The Red Banner Far East Second Independent Group Army won't be able to defend for long. I guess at most It will fall in half a month.

When the Marshal's reinforcements arrive, it will take at least two to three months just to repel the Japanese Third Army and repair the railway, and it will be winter in Siberia by then.At that time, neither we nor the Japanese will be able to start a large-scale battle.

Therefore, I estimate that Eastern Siberia may not be recaptured until next year. "

After listening to this, Stalin fell into deep thought again and remained silent for a long time.
