From to 1935 2020

"These Lucians!"

After putting down the telegram, from Yongren to the military headquarters, a group of members of the devil cursed viciously and were discussing the matter. Another attendant reported that the Soviet ambassador requested an urgent audience with the emperor, and then he handed over the Soviet Union's credentials.

"Is it a declaration of war issued by the Luya people?"

The moment the Soviet ambassador handed over his credentials, everyone from the emperor to a group of high-ranking devils instinctively tensed up.This group of Japanese devils, although they are usually extremely arrogant, they are actually trying to cover up their false fears.The more afraid you are, the more arrogant you become. The universe of later generations also inherited the characteristics of the Japanese of this period.

Even though the Russo-Japanese War was victorious, the people in the Japanese military still knew very well that going to war with Lucia was extremely risky and would definitely suffer a huge financial loss.Only those middle schoolers of the Huangdao School who want to be promoted and go crazy, talk about "Northern Advancement" all day long, and think about it in their hearts.The group of military officers and devils from the ruling faction here all understand that Chilu should not be messed with.

Opening the letter of credence, Yong Ren glanced at it, his face softened a little at first, and then he became angry.

"It's so deceiving!"

Indignantly, he slammed the letter of credence handed over by the Soviet ambassador on the table, and then drove the Soviet ambassador out with a wave of his hand.

It was a negotiation letter sent by the Soviets, the content of which was that the Soviet Red Army was conducting a "military exercise" with the Chinese army in the Pingjin area this morning. The Japanese should not be overly sensitive.As for the Far East, the movement of the Soviet Red Army on the Sino-Soviet border was also part of the exercise.

In addition, the letter of credence also told the Japanese "politely" not to use force to change China's political situation at will, otherwise the Soviet Red Army will definitely use more drastic means to support Chinese revolutionary comrades in resisting foreign aggression.

Yongren asked viciously: "The empire is now in the northeast, how many troops can be mobilized! How many troops can be mobilized?"

In fact, the number Yong Ren already knew, he just asked habitually.

"Eight divisions, about 20 people."

"Attack Pingjin now, how many troops can we dispatch?"

"Two divisions!"

"Why so few?"

Terauchi Shouichi's face turned ugly, and he replied: "The other divisions are now concentrated in the northern direction of Heilongjiang. In the past few months, our spies in the Far East have sent news that the Lucias have been sending more troops to the Far East throughout the winter. I have been training soldiers non-stop throughout the winter..."

In order to invade China in an all-round way, Japan has been mobilized in the past year, and it has expanded to twenty nine divisions so far.However, due to the formulation of a combat plan to attack the south of the Yangtze River, most of the troops were arranged to wait in the country for dispatch.The reason why they haven't acted yet is what the Japanese were most worried about in the past. If the south moves, the Red Army in the north will also take the initiative to attack, which will trigger a chain reaction in the Soviet Union. Bad situation.

The Japanese army, who loves to gamble heavily on the fate of the country, originally bet on Chang Kaishen and the Red Army fighting in Huainan. Both sides were wounded in order to take advantage of it. Who would have thought that Chang Tuzi was so vulnerable. When the battle started, the opponent turned into Changshan Zhao Zilong, But he, Chang Kaishen, transformed himself into Xiahouen, donating both equipment and heads, which made the imperial army who had placed great expectations on him miserable.

"The two divisions attacked Pingjin, how many days can they take there?"

Shousuichi's complexion turned dark all of a sudden.

"From Taiyuan to Pingjin, there is a railway connection, and as soon as the Huainan battle was over, Li Runshi immediately transferred the main force back to Shanxi. Although a large number of heavy weapons are still in Anhui for the time being, this time the Lucians sent two ships Armaments, there are a hundred tanks alone... and the armored units of the imperial army are now in the direction of Heilongjiang Province..."

When he said this, Shouyi in the temple had a terrible headache.Japan's "hesitation" on the issue of aggression against China in the past year is definitely the most stupid mistake.During this year, with Stalin's "desperate" support and supply of weapons, the Red Army of the Communist Party of China expanded its strength countless times at a terrifying speed.Even the 29th Army, which the Japanese have always looked down upon, has added a lot of weapons from the Red Army in the past year. At the beginning of this year, they both received two small tanks "gifted" by the Red Army.

As the "general leader" of the North China Anti-Japanese Alliance, Li Runshi was far more generous and courageous than Chang Kaishen.While infiltrating Hebei, the Red Army gradually divided, influenced, and controlled the 29th Army from within, and at the same time fulfilled its responsibility as the "leader and leader of the alliance".Not only did political workers be sent to help the 29th Army train, but the supplementary weapons and equipment were not spared. The four main divisions of the 29th Army are now equipped with anti-tank guns and 37mm light infantry guns "gifted" by the Red Army.And Song Zheyuan even bought more than ten ultra-light tanks from the Soviet Union at a low price at the end of last year through the relationship of the Red Army.With the addition of several tanks "gifted as a gift" from the Red Army, the family is now well-off, not much worse than Chang Kaishen's elite Central Army.

And after a division of the Soviet Air Force publicly stationed in Hebei, the Japanese Kwantung Army's air superiority in North China was wiped out in an instant, plus the more than [-] planes that Chang Kaishen rebelled and turned to the red, and the Far East would cross the river at any time. (Heilongjiang) Hundreds of thousands of Soviet Red Army marching south...

Coupled with the garrison in Shanxi and the help of the railway, all the Anhui Red Army going north can be mobilized soon...

In such a strategic situation, even the hard-headed "North China Invaders" are collectively numb.

"Ever since Chang Kaishen was defeated by the Communist Party, and Stalin and Li Runshi's Red Army had apparently quarreled with each other, the opportunity to continue invading China has actually been lost..."

Shouyi in the temple already vaguely understood this truth in his heart.

After a long silence, someone finally broke the silence.

It was Minai Mitsumasa who spoke, and he whispered authentically:

"Never start a war in North China!"

It's just that we can't start fighting in North China... Japan has been mobilizing for this goal for nearly a year.Dozens of divisions of the Japanese invaders have been formed or are in the process of being formed, and the chariots have already started to invade China. How could they stop at this time.

I thought that the opposite would be Chang Kaishen, a small family jasper, but who would have thought that in just over a year, they would be replaced by Li Runshi, a muscular man, and Stalin, a sweaty man next door!I have to finish the gun that I made an appointment with tears in my eyes!

In the next second, there was a group of echoes.

"That's right, Chang Kaishen has no soldiers left, so I'll attack him as planned."

"Chang Kaishen is desperate now. I can ask him to make a statement and invite the imperial army to enter Zhejiang to maintain the local defense and resist the communist plague from invading south!"

"Using international power to put pressure on Lucia, claiming that Lucia is interfering in China's internal affairs. The power of the Communist Party has now penetrated from North China to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The United Kingdom and the United States are very vigilant. We will start from this aspect."

"That's right! Use the power of Britain and the United States to expel Lucia's interference! Get their help! Regarding the southward march to China, the attitude of the United States is very ambiguous..."

Minei Guangzheng said that the war could not be fought in North China, and the high-ranking devil officials at the scene instantly became active, and you kept expressing your opinions...

keep dreaming...

Yong Ren, who was watching all this, turned darker and darker at this moment...

Now he really sees what kind of stuff these courtiers under him are.For a moment, he suddenly regretted sitting on the throne of the emperor.

But he only maintained this regret for a second, and then Yong Ren snorted.

"You guys discuss it slowly, and let me know the result!"

Then he waved his hand, left the seat and left,

As soon as Yongren left, Toshiichi Temple immediately ordered a power transmission to Seishiro Sakagaki who was stationed on the front line in Beipingjin, asking him to restrain the army and "don't spoil the imperial country's plan to enter China in the south".In fact, he was also afraid of the group of middle school students below. The situation in the whole north is so tense. What if there is a middle school student who is hot-headed and provokes Li Runshi and Stalin at the same time...

Terauchi Shouichi knew very well that after taking control of the north in 1937, the Red Army had multiple ports in North China where it could unload.The reason why the munitions ship was put in Tianjin in this sensitive area at this time was entirely intentional, and it was even Stalin’s intention. Soviet cargo ships, so that the Soviet Union got the best reason for "retaliation".

Seeing that the Soviet Union "rolled up their sleeves and wanted to go to war more actively than them", the smart and greedy senior officials of the Japanese military department shrunk faster than anyone else.

In fact, they know everything, but they are too greedy and too smart. They gambled heavily on the fortune of the country and took a risk. That would have to let the fool jump out and take the blame first. Now in Chichibu Palace, there is not a single fool... the control faction Everyone knows that the imperial army and the Lucia army are really invincible, and only the middle two of the imperial sect will go all out to provoke the red polar bear.

At this time, everyone began to miss the Second Second of the Emperor's Dao School who was kicked out of the military headquarters by them...

Some things only feel their preciousness when they are lost.A back-up man like the idiot of the Huangdao faction really shouldn't have cleaned them too clean!

Vote with monthly tickets, the end of the month

Chapter 207 Peace negotiation?

On the 27th, through careful planning, the Soviets sent 20 tanks and armored vehicles to Tianjin overnight by sea, and on the same day, by railway transportation, a full [-] strangely shaped "armored vehicles" were assembled outside Tianjin. armored personnel carrier" and ten self-propelled guns.

This is an out-and-out armed demonstration of the combined armored forces.

At the forefront are forty T26 tanks marching in two square formations.

Then there are three T27 light tanks in a [-]-car phalanx.

The third array is a convoy of armored personnel carriers and self-propelled multi-guns.

When the armored clusters of 130 vehicles gathered together and rumbled across the fields in North China, coordinating with the formations of aircraft flying across the sky, the scene was extremely shocking.

The Soviet Union sent such tanks and armored vehicles in one go, which has exceeded the current acceptance capacity of the Red Army's armored soldiers, causing the Red Army to have more tanks than tank soldiers.However, this was also intentional. Once war broke out, the Sino-Soviet shipping would inevitably be interrupted. The tanks and armored vehicles sent by Stalin were supposed to be stored as strategic reserves.

The T[-] has been on the scene in Spain for a long time, but the new armored personnel carrier caught the eyes of the foreign journalists who were lucky enough to observe it on the spot.

British: This car is a bit like the Bren machine gun car just launched by the British Empire, but it is much bigger.

French: A bit like our Renault products, the Russians are copying them again.

The sharp-eyed American reporters noticed that the chassis of the last ten self-propelled artillery pieces appeared to be exactly the same as the M2 tanks exported to Chang Kaishen by the United States.

——The fact is also true. All the 36 M2 tanks seized by the Red Army in Huainan were immediately removed from the turret after repairs were completed, and then replaced with a 76.2mm field gun produced by the Soviet Union, with armor welded around them. board, with an open top cover, converted into a self-propelled artillery.Today, the Soviet Union has developed two products, SU26 and SU90, which are made of the T2 chassis. However, due to the constraints of the T222 engine (76 horsepower) and the layout of the car body, the self-propelled artillery made of the US-made M[-] ​​tank ([-] horsepower) chassis is fast. , with greater potential for improvement, the Red Army named the car M[-].

The first batch of modified M76 self-propelled artillery, together with armored personnel carriers, was sent to the Pingjin area by railway, and participated in the armed demonstration march held on the 27th.

Before the Battle of Huainan, the CCP believed that the tanks in its hands were enough, and even exceeded the ability to receive and maintain them.However, Stalin was "extremely generous" and insisted on sending "more" half of the light armored division's equipment, and secretly sent a large number of Soviet armored soldiers to join the Red Army to participate in the war.The reason is that he wants to gain more experience in armored combat in the Chinese battlefield.

Compared to Germany, compared to the poor defense of T26 tanks, the Japanese with weak anti-armor capabilities are good opponents to collect experience packs on the battlefield.

This batch of armored personnel carriers was secretly brought to China directly from the Soviet Union by Huang Ke through the Space Cross on the [-]th. There were a total of [-] vehicles.

40 T26 tanks, 75 T[-] tanks, the actual cost is not expensive - the former is about [-] US dollars a piece, while the latter is only [-] tons empty weight, more like an armed tractor, the cost of five tanks is not worth it A T[-], even with armored personnel carriers, will cost no more than $[-].

Stalin really wanted to see the actual combat scene of mechanized troops with mixed arms.After knowing the history, he hopes that this actual combat demonstration will shock Britain and France, and let these two bastard countries pay attention to the combined armored combat in advance, which may change the future French battle and make the Germans eat Big loss.

At the end of November last year, after Stalin ordered the development of infantry fighting vehicles, the Bolshevik factory in Leningrad, under the leadership of engineers H Balykov and C Ginzbaug, designed the first in just one month. A sample car.

The reason why it is so fast is that the first prototype is basically a T[-] tank with a mid-mounted engine, the cooling vents are changed to two sides, a pair of road wheels are added on each side, and the rear body is elongated without the turret. It is designed by improving the basics of technology and parts, and the natural development speed is extremely fast.

Its design idea directly copied the idea of ​​the Lorraine [-]L armored personnel carrier that was being developed in France at the same time. The idea of ​​[-]L is the fastest and easiest way to produce finished products.

Since the transformation is carried out using mature car body technology, most of the parts production lines are ready-made. At the end of December last year, a prototype car was built, and a small batch of trial production began in February, and by mid-March Sixty armored personnel carriers were built, and the first batch of trial production products had already been brought back to China by Huang Ke to participate in actual combat trials.

The car weighs 9 tons. The body is protected by light riveted steel armor, the vertical plate is 1 mm thick, the roof armor is [-] mm, and the front of the car is protected by [-] mm thick inclined armor.The engine of the vehicle is in the middle, separated from the front cockpit by a partition, and the exhaust pipe and muffler of the engine are under the armor plate on the left side of the vehicle.Except for the driver and co-driver (the commander and radio operator), the space in the back seat is crowded and can accommodate [-] infantrymen.

Since it is an emergency product, the car still has some mechanical problems to be solved.However, Stalin was in a hurry, and the Chinese battlefield also needed these vehicles to participate in tactical tests, so they were built first.

During this period, the United Kingdom has developed a similar product, the famous Bren machine gun car.Most of the vehicles in World War II were open designs. They once developed a version with a roof, but in actual combat it was found that this was not a good thing: after the car was shot, it was not conducive to the escape of the occupants, so it was cancelled.The layout and structure of this armored personnel carrier developed by the Soviet Union is exactly the same as that of the Lorraine 37L armored vehicle developed by France at the same time-only the rear compartment is longer, the engine horsepower is greater, and there are two more people. (Note: France's Lorraine 37L is often called the World War II weapon closest to infantry fighting vehicles by military fans of later generations)

Huang Ke originally canceled the roof design like the British did, but after the Battle of Bailing Temple, news came back from the front that the Japanese divisions were equipped with a large number of grenade launchers. After repeated attempts, it was installed again, but whether it is useful or not, we can only make a decision after the actual battle on the front line.

The top cover of the rear compartment of all infantry fighting vehicles is bolted to the top of the vehicle body. The cover plate is easy to disassemble. A square opening is opened near the engine, and a light machine gun is installed on the side. If necessary, the vehicle group Crew members can lean out of the hull and operate the machine gun to fire.

This first-generation armored personnel carrier is still far from the real infantry fighting vehicle of later generations, even if it is far inferior to the first-generation infantry fighting vehicle BMP113 produced by the Soviet Union in the future.It can only be said to be a temporary rush to cope with the work, and the real products similar to the M[-] armored personnel carrier and BMP infantry tank are still under development.

The synthetic mechanized division composed of 130 tanks and armored vehicles appeared in the wild on the outskirts of Pingjin, together with the densely packed planes flying in the sky, it shocked the whole world in an instant, and also shocked the Japanese garrison stationed in Pingjin. Not light.

The more disturbing situation is not in Pingjin, but the generation of Zhang Gufeng in the Far East, a sensitive area on the border between China and the Soviet Union, also announced that a large-scale military exercise will be held, and on this day he took the initiative to notify the Japanese to "send a military attache to the scene to observe."

The reason why such a large-scale method was used was that the Soviet Union received information from Sorge’s team. After the Battle of Huainan, the Japanese side advanced the plan to invade China: the original plan was to launch in mid-to-late April, and it was advanced to April one day.

At present, the military layout of the Red Army in the Northern Army, because of the Huainan Campaign, the positions of the participating ministries, and the logistics deployment are very chaotic, and it will take about half a month to complete the adjustment.And the troops Yang Hucheng and Zhang Xueliang excitedly sent troops to occupy territory in Huainan, northern Jiangsu, were still on their way, and they also needed time to move in.

Time is so short!The high-profile "armed march" of China and the Soviet Union in North China and the Far East this time shocked the Japanese army with force and bought a little more time for the Red Army.

On the same day, more than 27 Red Army soldiers got off the dozens of trains from Taiyuan to Pingjin and Tianjin.In the past, in order not to irritate the Japanese army, the CCP’s regular army never formally stationed in Pingjin, but on the [-]th, when the armed march began outside Tianjin, the Red Army mobilized troops into Pingjin—the defense area they were stationed in happened to be transferred to the south not long ago. Zhang Kexia's department left a blank.Although Zhang Kexia has more than [-] people under his command, most of them are newly recruited recruits, and most of them are not well trained.

Nowhere else, the Japanese have infiltrated and spread too many hidden seeds in North China.As soon as the Red Army moves troops into Pingjin, it will trigger a series of chain reactions. It is impossible for the "garrison troops" who want to sneak attack the Pingjin area.To start a war here, the only way is to open up a stance and attack head-on.Such a high-profile appearance now makes the Japanese army have so-called fear and hesitates to act. On the contrary, it allows the Red Army to more easily complete the pre-war entry layout.

This is a long-planned military operation with a tacit understanding between the two sides. Song Zheyuan has completely bowed to the CCP. Zhang Kexia was transferred to Anhui to make room for the Red Army. It only took eight days to see the Red Army. Chang Kaishen's more than 30 main force was defeated in one battle, and Song Zheyuan's last bit of courage was defeated.

He was drinking tea with Huang Ke, and the only thing left in his mind was "retire to the countryside and become a rich man".

On March 27th, the ambassadors of the Soviet Union to the United States, the United Kingdom, and France issued a proposal to the heads of state. The general content was that in view of the current changes in China's domestic situation, the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War is on the verge of imminence, and it is hoped that all countries can unite Get up, sit down at the table, and discuss the issue of peace in East Asia.

Here, Stalin played a game of words, and raised the Chinese issue, the Sino-Japanese War, directly to the larger scope of the East Asian peace issue.

In the letters of credence sent to the United States, Britain, and France, the Soviet Union announced in words the numbers of the forty divisions that the Japanese had mobilized, and the list of division heads—the real situation is that the current At that time, there were only [-] mobilized divisions in Japan, and the rest were still being formed.However, this is Japan's top military secret. Stalin said it was, and the Japanese said it was a rumor, and no one else could prove the truth.

Regardless of whether the people in Britain, France and the United States believe it or not, anyway, the Japanese military headquarters, from the emperor to the land minister, were shocked by Stalin's actions and shouted: there are secret agents of Lucia in the headquarters! ——The specific information was naturally sent by Huang Ke, a traveler who plagiarized the information of later generations.Then, in order to find out the spies within the Japanese military department, they went through the rivers and seas again.

On the evening of the 27th, representatives of the CCP gathered journalists from all over the world at the Liuguo Hotel in Beiping and announced a temporary truce. the political demands of the former government’s peace talks”.

In addition, there was a proposal to form a "Chinese Anti-Japanese Coalition Government" for the five southern warlords of Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Yunnan, and Sichuan.

On the one hand, the swords are on the verge of breaking out, but on the other hand, they are "kindly asking for negotiations." The eyes of the whole world are focused on Pingjin and Tianjin.
