Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 1263 Two choices
After a pause, he continued: "Do you know what it's like now? I heard that the current diplomatic mission has already fled towards Kuibyshev, 600 miles to the east. Now the whole city has panicked. Driving into the suburbs, the entire train station was crowded with people. Senior party and government officials, sitting in cars, also joined the ranks of the panic-stricken fugitives, which caused the largest traffic jam in the history of the Soviet Union. Groups of fugitives and workers in the There was a lot of looting in the shops, because there was no police to stop it. Rumors said that Lenin's body had been removed from Red Square for safekeeping, and that Stalin himself had fled. There were only a handful of people building barricades in the streets, ready to fight to the death , not letting a single Chinese pass through. Most of the people were demoralized and waited for the dragon army to enter the city. Many bought Chinese-Russian dictionaries in order to greet them in the language of the conqueror. In addition, Stalin had sent the We ask for peace. Their foreign minister Fritz Hesse once asked Wu Tingfang this question. But the empire has rejected his request, and the rejection is very clear.” Speaking of this, he glanced at Pu Yin: “You Know why I say that.Do you know what it means for me to do this? After a few seconds, he suddenly took up the topic just now and said: "This means that the Soviets have failed, and they have completely failed." "

Then he suddenly changed the subject, "But now we have encountered a very serious problem, that is, the number of our troops is seriously insufficient. Now the shortage of front-line troops is relatively large. The Second Panzer Army has reduced its personnel by a quarter. These are urgently needed to be replenished. Now you have a large number of armored units in your hands, and these armored units are not very useful when facing the fortified city of Stalingrad. You should use your Armored troops are called out to participate in this battle full of historical missions. I believe we will be able to succeed."

After a few seconds, he suddenly said inexplicably: "This is a war between different ideologies. Therefore, now we must smelt the essence of China into an indissoluble body. Only when all the Chinese people are willing to sacrifice We have hope only when we are one. God is on our side."

"Father, do you really think that the empire has won the final victory?" On the outside, it's mostly a political matter. But we don't have complete and complete control, and the empire must prepare to fight another 10 years in the east. In the short term, no one will notice that peace has not been achieved at all."

Without hesitation, Pu Yin summoned up his courage and said suddenly: "Father, I insist that now is not the time to completely solve the Soviet Union issue."

Guan Xuqing's face immediately changed, "Why do you say that? Do you question the strength of the empire? Do you question my ability? Yin'er, I know what you are thinking. You still can't forget your tactics. You still want to Taking Stalingrad, but I want you to know that it is far more important than fighting Stalingrad. You should know that as long as we win, the war will be over. The Soviets have no The strength of the enemy is now against us, and we don't need to win Stalingrad to ensure the advantage of the entire battlefield. Yin'er, you need to take back your ideas."

"Father, I know all this. In fact, I have always hoped that this war can be won, but from the current point of view, we have not won the final victory. First of all, the Soviets have gradually recovered from the chaos Come over, including Stalin, who liked to command blindly at the beginning, he has regained his composure. He reappeared in the Kremlin, I heard that he has ordered Timoshenko to form new troops to defend? In addition, he announced the siege Measures under the state, those who disrupt law and order should be dealt with immediately; spies, rebels, secret agents, and instigators will be shot to death. Due to the firm instructions from above, the morale of the city began to improve again. On July 7, Stalin’s October Revolution The speech at the military parade also proved his resolute will to fight, and the morale of the local people has become extremely strong now.

Although outside the city, although our front line troops have inserted a distance of less than 80 miles.But we don't have an advantage.According to the information I have received, the progress of our vanguard has slowed down under the resolute resistance of the Soviet army.The Soviets are using various methods to delay our progress, and God is not helping us. The weather is changing suddenly, and the never-before-seen winter rain has begun without warning.The Dragon Army's heavy Tiger tanks and a large number of trucks and half-track armored personnel carriers were stuck in the mud and could not move; however, the lighter Su-4 tanks equipped with wide tracks could continue to drive freely.Now, there is a sea of ​​mud below, and the tanks cannot move; our planes are stuck in the mud and cannot take off.Even if we really fly into the sky, due to the low visibility, the role of our aircraft is extremely limited.The Imperial Air Force, which has air superiority, is at a loss. When our mobility is lost, our firepower advantage also disappears. "

"I know." Guan Xuqing suddenly interrupted the other party's words: "Our troops encountered some problems on the Eastern Front. However, the problems of the Soviets are even bigger, as I said before. The main force of the Soviets was defeated by us .Although, they were not completely wiped out. But according to the accurate information from the Eastern Front Intelligence Office of our Army Headquarters, the Soviets are indeed preparing new troops, including the construction of 150 infantry divisions, 35 cavalry divisions and 40 tank brigades, but These troops had to wait until 1930 to complete training and form combat effectiveness. The Soviet Union still had 200 infantry divisions, 20 cavalry divisions and 25 tank brigades on the Sino-Soviet battlefield. A large-scale attack. Now we can take advantage of this time difference to win, thus establishing the victory in one fell swoop."

"Only 200 infantry divisions?" Pu Yin suddenly asked back: "Father, who provided this information?"

"Provided by the Eastern Front Intelligence Department of the Imperial Army Headquarters. They are experts in the study of Soviet military issues. What? Do you have an opinion on this figure?"

"Yes." Pu Yin replied immediately: "There seems to be an error in this number." Speaking of which, he took out a small notebook from his pocket, and then respectfully handed it to Guan Xuqing: "This is provided by the Security Bureau. We have passed the information to the Army Headquarters. According to our information. During the same period, they formed 208 divisions, and this number is still increasing. It is expected that by August, the Soviet Army may resume its old strength. As of now, the Soviet Army has a total of 8 million army and aviation units, equipped with 549.3 tanks, and 200 artillery pieces. In addition, the Soviet Red Navy has nearly 22000 troops. These troops are still gradually increasing .”

"Oh? Why do the Russians still have so many troops? They have wiped out more than 400 million troops for us, so why are there so many troops? Are they really cockroaches? They can't be killed no matter what ?” At this point, he glanced at Pu Yin who was standing beside him: “Yin’er, are you deliberately exaggerating the enemy’s strength in order to convince me?”

"I don't dare. In fact, it is quite normal for the Soviets to have so many troops." After a pause, he continued: "Judging from the general situation, the Soviet Union has lost millions of troops so far. It is indeed difficult for the army to restore its original strength and fully arm them in a short period of time. In fact, Stalin did not restore so many troops to combat effectiveness."

"Wait!" Guan Xuqing suddenly interrupted the other party, "You said that even if Stalin had a way to recover his troops, he couldn't recover his combat power? If that's the case, then they still can't compete with us in terms of combat power. What is there to worry about?"

"No! Things are not as simple as you imagined! Although Stalin couldn't get enough troops and equipment. But he couldn't help it." Speaking of this, Pu Yin picked up a map of the Soviet Union: "As we all know, The Soviet Union was a vast country. In addition to facing us in the east, the Soviet Union also faced other countries. Such as Turkey in the southwest, Afghanistan and China in the south-central, and islands in the southeast. In some places, the Soviet Union People still retain a very strong force. Therefore, the Soviet People's Congress can mobilize their troops calmly. They can send a large number of untrained soldiers to these non-sensitive areas for military training. Those troops that have been trained will not stop This method is very simple, just like the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow. They can continuously pull those untrained people into the battlefield, and the advantage of the number of these cannon fodder can calmly crush us completely. "

"Yin'er, what do you think of the current situation of the Central Army Group? Is there any chance to turn the whole situation around?"

"Yes! According to the current strategic situation between the enemy and us, we have no chance. Unless we can solve several key issues now. The first is the replenishment of soldiers, the second is the supply of ammunition and equipment, and the last is winter equipment and winter clothes Whether we can reach the front line on time, if these three things can be satisfied, then we will be able to win it very smoothly. Conversely, if only one of these three things can’t be satisfied, then we can’t win it, absolutely not possible."

Guan Xuqing sighed slightly, "Don't say all of the three points you mentioned, even if you can only achieve a little bit, I will be very pleased. Unfortunately, although we have to pay attention to the supply problem, we have also put in some effort in this area , but this effect is still very insignificant.”
