I am Jiang Weiguo in World War II

Page 456

"Mr. Bai, Mr. Liu, in fact, we are also at a loss!" Jiang Weiguo said helplessly, "We have to admit that we are deeply surprised by what the Soviets did!"

Li Yuri said: "Yes, what the Soviets did was simply unreasonable.

The Soviets, who were attacked by us and the Germans on two fronts and suffered huge losses during the first phase of the battle last year, may only have the power to parry at this time. How can they preemptively strike?With the strength of the Soviet army on the Eastern Front, it is enough to fight a defensive battle, and they are still actively attacking us?The only explanation is that the Soviets transferred a large amount of troops from the Western Front to the Eastern Front. However, this move was completely cutting flesh and filling sores, and it was suicide at all!Don't the Soviets know that the Germans are stronger, more ruthless, and more dangerous than us? "

Both Bai Chongxi and Liu Fei showed confusion: "According to what you say, the Soviets did not play their cards according to common sense! Perhaps Stalin wanted to 'lose the east and reap the mulberry', but he was not afraid of losing the big for the small." ?”

Yang Jie said solemnly: "Everyone, let's not be self-conscious!" He walked to the huge map on the wall, pointing to the north of Champion City and the south of the Four North Asian Cities, "The Soviets are indeed coming fiercely. A little caught off guard, but the Soviets didn't take much advantage of it in essence.

On the northern battlefield of Champion City, more than 20 Soviet troops were killed by our army. The Soviet army was defeated and returned. On the southern battlefield of the four cities in North Asia, the Soviet army did achieve many victories, but it failed to shake our army The overall foundation, and the reason why the Soviet army succeeded in the southern battlefield of the four cities in North Asia was not that the Soviet army was very strong, but that the local national army was too incompetent! As he spoke, he couldn't help but sternly said, "Sun Yuanliang was drunk and dreamed of dying, and fled before the battle. Tang Enbo passively avoided the battle and preserved his strength. Hu Zongnan stood by and watched death without saving him. Shangguan Yunxiang left his post without authorization and abolished the public for private reasons. It is the national army itself. There are too many internal problems that lead to the defeat of the national army! "

Jiang Weiguo said solemnly: "Anyone who disregards the interests of the country for personal gain, no matter how high and powerful they are, will be brought to justice sooner or later! Let's not talk about this for now, anyway, they can't escape!"

Yang Jie nodded, restrained his anger, and continued: "The one just now is secondary, the real point and key is that the Soviet troops who fought back against us are actually second- and third-rate troops.

According to General Fu Zuoyi's report, after inspection, most of the Soviet soldiers who were killed on the battlefield in the northern part of Champion City were recruits temporarily conscripted into the army, with insufficient training and crude weapons. Two people, one gun, one magazine and five bullets; and according to General Luo Zhuoying's report, after inspection, most of the Soviet troops who were killed on the battlefield in the south of the four cities in North Asia were militiamen, and the quality of soldiers and weapons and equipment were even worse. Extremely inferior, each with a broadsword or spear.

It doesn’t make sense to kill hundreds of thousands of these troops composed of recruits and militia!”

Li Yuri sneered and said: "Tang Enbo also boasted in the military report sent to Wuhan that his troops wiped out tens of thousands of Soviet troops. The militiamen are simply shameless!"

Yang Jie looked at Jiang Weiguo, Bai Chongxi and others: "What I am puzzled about is that the Soviet army did not put out too many real main forces for this counterattack. The problem is that the Soviet army sent so many recruits and militias into our camp. What is the purpose of the firepower net? Needless to say, the effect is not great.

If the Soviet army is going to launch a major counter-offensive, why use second- and third-rate recruits and militias to make up for it?If the Soviet army didn't want to launch a big counterattack, why did they not hesitate to kill so many people?Is it to test us or to contain us? "

"Maybe there is not enough food in the Soviet government's granary, so Stalin thinks the Soviets have too many people!" Xiao Yao, who also participated in the meeting, said in a mocking tone, "So use our hands to help him reduce the population burden, and at the same time consume us. bullets!"

Jiang Weiguo said with a malicious attitude: "It's not impossible.

In the mind of a tyrant like Stalin, the country's population is not only not the most precious resource, but rather a burden!"

Bai Chongxi could hear that Jiang Weiguo and Xiao Yao were making a malicious joke, so he just thought about Yang Jie's analysis seriously. The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, and the more confused he became: "It's really a big violation to drive out the underdogs and act as a forward Common sense!"

Liu Fei looked at the map: "The commander-in-chief of the four cities in North Asia is... Konev, right? Konev has indeed broken through the national army's blockade, but it's also very strange.

The Soviet troops in the four cities of North Asia are all caged birds. Breaking through the siege to the north is a dead end. Nature will help us wipe out Konev’s troops completely. A series of military fortresses such as Beihe and Qiecheng were solid under the defense of Song Xilian. The Soviet army broke through to the east, that is, they fought offensive and fortified battles. The Soviet army, it is impossible for the Soviet army to surpass Song Xilian's defense line, so the Soviet army can only go west or south. Similarly, there is no way to go south. Even if the breakout is successful, where can Konev escape?Northeastern Kazakhstan?Feng Zhi'an was there, and the three cities in the northeast of Kazakhstan were also rock-solid; could it be Xinjiang?Mongolia?There are dead ends, the vast desert and grassland, and no man's land everywhere. Could the Soviet army still fight all the way to Dihua and Kulun?The Soviet army was about to starve to death on the way.

After all, Konev's correct and only choice is to break out to the west!"

Jiang Weiguo nodded: "Yes, General Luo Zhuoying thinks so too, so he personally sits in the western part of the four cities in North Asia to supervise the battle. Unexpectedly, Konev broke through to the south!"

Li Yuri said: "Because of this, Tang Enbo and Sun Yuanliang were severely caught off guard.

They all thought that the Soviet army would go west, but they didn't expect to go south, and they were unprepared, which is one of the direct reasons why Konev was able to make a major breakthrough in the south of the four cities in North Asia!"

Liu Fei nodded again and again: "That's the problem.

In fact, Konev's intention to break out to the south was not to drink, but to contain us, test us, and hit us. He couldn't really break out to the south, because it was a dead end, and he would still break out to the west. To the west of the city is the champion city. At the same time, the Soviet army... is Zhukov, right?At the same time, Zhukov attacked the city of Champions from Tyumen to the east, and the two cannot be unrelated!"

Jiang Weiguo's heart moved, and Bai Chongxi thoughtfully said: "Zhukov and Konev plan to cooperate internally and externally, and attack the Champion City back and forth? The goal of the Soviet army is the Champion City? Konev's breakout is actually a feint. offensive?"

Liu Fei nodded: "I think this is very possible.

The City of Champions is a thorn in the throat of the Soviets. Only by pulling it out can the Soviets regain their initiative on the Eastern Front and consolidate the security of their rear.

Zhukov and Konev went around such a big circle and did not hesitate to kill so many people, all in order to confuse us, to cover up their real purpose that they have long wanted to reveal!"

Bai Chongxi agreed: "Yes, the Soviets made such a big commotion and spent so much money. We can't just passively come to cover the water and soil. We must anticipate the enemy's opportunity and figure out what they want to do. Targeted!"

Jiang Weiguo looked at Xiao Yao: "Brother Haoran, what do you think?"

Xiao Yao thought for a while and said, "When thinking about a problem, you should not be preconceived. You must put yourself in the situation, think from the perspective of the enemy, and use the method of elimination and proof by contradiction.

First of all, the Soviets had limited capital and were strongly constrained by Germany. It was impossible to drive us back to China from North Asia and Central Asia. If he is old and confused, his generals will not be confused with him; secondly, the Soviets can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall. The crux of the problem is, how many troops did the Soviet army transfer from the western front to the eastern front?If there are not many, Stalin's appetite must be small; if there are many, Stalin's appetite must be very large!"

"I don't think there are many!" Liu Fei said, "The German threat to the Soviet Union is much greater than ours. Is Stalin going to play empty plans on the Western Front?"

Xiao Yao said: "But the weather is bad now, and the Germans are too busy to separate themselves, and the Soviets are likely to have a time lag. Perhaps, Stalin was so cruel that he planned to abandon Moscow.

The Soviets would have had no chance of attacking us, but they could do everything possible to create an opportunity.

If the Soviet army gathers a large number of troops drawn from the western front to the eastern front, and then plans to win a big victory in a relatively short period of time, then although this move is very risky, it is very feasible!"

Li Yuri seems to have been inspired: "It is indeed an inevitable choice when you are in a desperate situation.

If Stalin ruthlessly abandoned Moscow, he would naturally be able to mobilize at least 30 to [-] veterans of the regular army to deal with us. In addition, it has been about two months since the end of the first phase of the battle, and the Soviet army has time to train New troop!"

Bai Chongxi also felt that there was a faint feeling of clearing the clouds in his thoughts: "Stalin desperately defended Moscow, Leningrad, and Stalingrad. We feel that he would rather die than let these three cities be captured by the German army. , I am afraid that it will indeed do so.

Moscow, Leningrad, Stalingrad..." A gleam flashed in his eyes, "If you really want to give up one of them, Stalin can only give up Moscow, because Stalingrad guards the vital middle and lower reaches of the Don River for the Soviet army And the Caucasus region is too important. Leningrad is the last external channel of the Soviet Union (the last external channel of the Soviet Union is actually Leningrad and Murmansk and Arkhangelsk behind Leningrad), and it cannot be lost. , only Moscow, which seems to be the most important, is actually the most worth giving up!" He looked at Jiang Weiguo, "Second son, I have a proposal, requesting the German army to send elite troops to resume the attack on Moscow immediately, if the German army goes well, it means that Stalin It is indeed necessary to abandon Moscow, and Stalin has transferred a large number of main forces from the Western Front to the Eastern Front to deal with us! "

"Good idea!" Jiang Weiguo clapped his hands, and he was immediately enlightened, "Throwing stones to ask for directions!"

"There is one more problem we need to solve!" Yang Jie also became excited, "That is, what is the purpose of the Soviet army? What kind of result does the Soviet army want? Is it siege? Or kill people?"

Liu Fei quickly followed Yang Jie's train of thought: "Siege means to seize vital places, such as Champion City, and killing people means to annihilate our army in large numbers.

Although both are attacking our army, they are very different in a deeper sense.

Do the Soviets want to defeat us on the battlefield, or do they want to..." He hesitated to speak, and looked at the crowd with an intriguing look.

Jiang Weiguo was the weakest military mind among the people present, but he suddenly realized: "I understand! If the Soviet army only wants to seize the key points, it reflects the intention of the Soviet authorities to fight us to the end. If the Soviet army wants to fight us in large numbers Annihilating our army will reflect another intention of the Soviet authorities...to force us to negotiate peace with them?"

Xiao Yao smiled slightly: "Didn't a secret Soviet envoy come to you during the Chinese New Year?"

Vyshinsky's secret visit to China was a top secret between China and the Soviet Union. Bai Chongxi, Liu Fei, and Li Yuri didn't know about it, but Yang Jie knew it. We negotiated an armistice with them? Vyshinsky's secret visit to China was to 'induce', and the Soviet army's massive counterattack was to 'coerce'? The two-pronged approach complements each other, the Soviets have a good plan!"

Jiang Weiguo felt from the bottom of his heart that it was really a pleasure to discuss issues with smart people. He worked together, brainstormed, and slowly unraveled the cocoons, explaining the profound things in simple terms, and finally found the truth after breaking through the dense clouds.

"In this way, many things make sense!" Jiang Weiguo suddenly realized, "I understand that Stalin wanted to hurt us and force us to withdraw from the war unilaterally.

Yes, yes, this is the only hope and lifeline for the Soviet Union at this time.

It is precisely because we are much weaker than the Germans that Stalin picked the weak persimmons, so the Soviet army took the risk of transferring troops from the Western Front to the Eastern Front, and even prepared to abandon Moscow..." The more he thought about it, the more he felt his thoughts suddenly clear. up.

Bai Chongxi smiled and said: "These are just our analysis and guesswork, and we need to prove it!" He paused and concluded, "First, the Soviets are limited in strength, second, the Soviets lack time, and third, the purpose of the Soviets It is forcing us, not really fighting us to the end.

By mastering these three points, many of our troubles can be easily solved.

If the Soviet army wants to attack the city, the Champion City is the best and may be the only choice, but even if the Soviet army wins the Champion City, it will only recover a Soviet city that has fallen to the enemy. Although it is a victory, it is not so shocking. On our side, the significance is not as good as capturing a small town belonging to our country on the border of our country, and the Soviet army has limited strength and insufficient time, and conducting urban battles does not meet these two points. If we can kill 15 or even 20 of our army at one go, the effect will be much better than regaining the Champion City. Our vitality will be greatly injured, and we cannot afford such a big loss, so we can only be forced to negotiate peace with the Soviet Union! "

"Yes! That's right!" Yang Jie, Liu Fei, and Li Yuri all agreed.

"Once we know the pulse of the Soviets, it will be much easier for us to prescribe the right medicine!" Bai Chongxi is also delighted, "However, we still lack strong evidence. If the German army resumes its attack on Moscow and succeeds in one fell swoop, we can. ..”

"There is no time for that!" Xiao Yao said, "The German army must gather at least 30 troops to resume its attack on Moscow. A big battle cannot be accomplished overnight, and it will take time to observe after the fight. We cannot see immediate results. Believe in our own judgment, because it is based on objective facts and rigorous logic inferred results!"

"The Soviets want to eat our army?" Jiang Weiguo looked at the map, "Which army is their target?"

Xiao Yao smiled: "Maybe, No.70 Seventh Division is their target!"

Bai Chongxi also looked at the map: "At present, the most basic thing is to hold our ground and not be led by the nose by the Soviet army.

It is certain that Konev will not really break through from the south of the four North Asian cities, Song Xilian and Feng Zhi'an don't need to mobilize two divisions each to intercept it, it is enough for each of them to mobilize one division!"

Jiang Weiguo followed the good example: "Well, send the latest orders to General Song and General Feng immediately!"

At this time, Zhang Fakui hurried over, pushed the door open and entered: "Second Young Master, everyone, just received a telegram!"

"Could it be another army that was defeated?" Jiang Weiguo said this while wishing that he was not a crow's mouth.

Zhang Fakui smiled: "It's not from the front line, it's from Tokyo!" He met everyone's amazed eyes, "At the critical moment, our Japanese allies can be described as 'A friend in need is a friend indeed'! The Japanese Army sent a warm and enthusiastic telegram, He said that if the Chinese army can’t hold on, the Japanese army is willing to send troops decisively and mobilize no less than three divisions to go to North Asia or Central Asia to participate in the war. Firstly, it will fulfill the obligations of its allies, and secondly, it will consider the overall interests of the allied countries. , because our army is really unable to hold on, and the Japanese will also be affected by their interests!"

Jiang Weiguo sneered: "The weasel gives the chicken New Year's greetings! Mr. Zhang, please help me reply to the Japanese, saying that I thank their ancestors for eight generations, but the current situation is completely in the hands of our army, and there is no need to bother the imperial army of the Great Japanese Empire.

In addition, if the Japanese really want to help us, I want guns and money, but they don’t want people, they can send me guns and money, but they don’t want to send the army!”

Zhang Fakui understood: "I understand!" He was also a little annoyed immediately, "The Japanese are really Sima Zhao's heart! They say they are helping us, but they are actually looking for an excuse to join the war, and then carry out a new round of military expansion.

The Japanese are always ambitious! "

"When we succeed in destroying and swallowing the Soviet Union, the Japanese will be all soldiers, and we will be able to kill them all!" Jiang Weiguo snorted coldly.

On the southern battlefield of the four cities in North Asia, more than 10 officers and soldiers from the 210th Division of the 37th Army of the Nanjing Army and the 101st Division of the [-]th Army came from the east and west respectively, riding cars, horses, and bicycles all the way. Instead of directly filling the breakthrough of the Soviet army, they went to the gathering place of the defeated national army units and drove back the officers and soldiers who had fled from the front line.

"Don't run away! Fucking turn around and go back to fight!"

"You idiots! What a bunch of useless fellows!"

"If you run away again, you will flee to the territory of Outer Mongolia! It's not too shameful!"

The officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army waved bayonets and rifle butts, yelling cursingly, and drove the defeated soldiers who had fled back like pigs.

Among the four armies, the 27th and 34th armies were basically intact. They neither suffered too much damage nor left their positions. The 32nd army was in chaos. When the war broke out, the deputy commander of the army, Shangguan Yun Xiangyuan, was in Beihai Lake. Although Li Hanhun, the deputy commander, tried his best to reorganize the troops, but because the dragons had no leader and factional reasons (Li Hanhun was born in the Guangdong faction, there must be a lot of constraints in commanding the Central Army), so he retreated dozens of kilometers. The situation of the 31st Army Group was the worst. Unfortunately, the 29th Army of the Ministry was completely destroyed. The 13th Army and the 85th Army retreated all the way to preserve their strength. They fled from Bisk to the Goa area more than 80 kilometers away. Therefore, they became the key "cleanup targets" of the Nanjing Army .

赶过来的南京军第101、第210师的官兵们很轻蔑地看到到处都是惊魂未定、狼狈不堪的第13军和第85军的官兵，还有第29军的数千名逃出生天的官兵。

Some officers of the 13th Army and the 85th Army are very busy, busy taking the remnants of the 29th Army into their headquarters, so as to devour other troops and strengthen themselves.

Liu Kan, the commander of the 101st Division, was responsible for driving these remnants of the national army back to the front line.

Liu Kan's right eye was knocked out by a stray bullet in the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in his early years, so he was a one-eyed man. The picture in front of him made his one-eyed fire: "The panic and chaos are so disgraceful to the Chinese soldiers!" He ordered the officers and soldiers, "Give me the Beat them back with sticks! If sticks don't work, use bullets!"

Chapter 532 Big Avalanche (12)

In the Goa area where the 31st Army retreated, ghosts were crying and wolves were howling, and the scene was in chaos.

The officers and soldiers of the 101st Division and 210th Division of the Nanjing Army who rushed over unceremoniously carried out the order issued by Liu Kan: drive the defeated soldiers back with messy sticks.

The 31st Army lost more than 3 people on the Biysk front (the 29th Army lost more than 2 people, and the 13th Army and the 85th Army lost 6000 people). , in fact, it was the 29th Army that was really defeated. The 13th Army and the 85th Army retreated in an orderly manner, but because they were chased by the Soviet Army and retreated, a herd effect inevitably occurred. The senior officers of the army knew well that the troops retreated deliberately to preserve their strength, and they were not defeated and repulsed. After cleaning up, the people were panicked and infected each other, and it intensified, which almost led to a situation where the army was defeated. Fortunately, the Soviet army was only relentless. On the one hand, it was unable to pursue and kill, and on the other hand, Konev had no intention of pursuing and killing. The army can retreat in the chaos.

Goa is home to a cluster of villages and towns whose residents have been evicted or fled.

Some of the officers and soldiers of Tang Enbo who had retreated here seized private houses to rest, and those who did not seize the private houses gathered in clusters in the wild to collect wood, light a bonfire, and cook porridge and rice while warming up by the fire. Some fell asleep in a comfortable place, some sat in a corner in a daze, some chatted in fear and looked north frequently, fearing that the Soviet army would chase after them, and the wounded soldiers shouted and cursed because they could not receive timely and effective medical treatment. Soldiers without rations clamored around the quartermaster to ask for food, and some soldiers were fighting each other for food. Such a chaotic scene.

Liu Kan looked at this scene angrily, and thought to himself: "Fortunately, this group of defeated soldiers fled to a place where no one was around. If they escape to the country or to the towns, the local people will definitely be harmed by them!" Drive back this bunch of life-hungry, fear-death bastards!"

The officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army, who had been angry for a long time, swarmed up, raised their guns, punched and kicked, and the officers and soldiers of the Tang Department who were sleeping were woken up abruptly, and the officers and soldiers of the Tang Department who were chatting in a daze were beaten to run away with their heads in their arms. The officers and soldiers of the Tang Department were beaten to the point of bleeding, and howls like slaughtering pigs kept coming and going.

Compared with the Tangbu officers and soldiers who had thrown away their helmets and armor and were in a panic, the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army were loaded with live ammunition, neatly armed, with a majestic appearance and a majestic aura, so they had the upper hand in beatings.

"Coward! Coward! Go back to fight!" the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Army cursed.

Here's what's happening over and over:

An officer of the Nanjing Army asked an officer of the Tang Department: "What is your job?"

The other party replied: "Company commander!"

"Where's your company?"

"No... I don't know, they are all lost!"

The officer of the Nanjing Army was furious: "As an officer, you should take the lead and set an example. You actually only care about running for your own life and don't care about your own troops. If you behave like this, can you still be a company commander?"

A few Nanjing Army soldiers next to him raised their guns and stepped forward to fight.

An officer of the Nanjing Army asked several Tang soldiers: "What kind of arms are you guys?"

The other party replied: "Heavy Gunner!"

"Where's your machine gun?"

"Too heavy to throw on the road!"

The officer of the Nanjing Army was furious: "As a soldier, you should firmly bear in mind that weapons are the second life of a soldier. How can you throw them away so easily? Weapons are the property of the country, but they are wasted by waste like you! Capture it and use it to beat us! You bastards! Hit me!"

A few Nanjing Army soldiers next to him raised their guns and went forward to fight.

The officers and soldiers of the Tang Department knew that they had lost the battle, so they believed that they were wronged. Many officers and soldiers dared not fight back, but some officers and soldiers were deeply frustrated and angry: "Why do you beat me?" "Damn! Who are you? How old are you? Dare to hit me?" "Grandma is a bear! You are too bullying! I will fight with you!" The defeated soldiers cursed, and many even raised their guns to resist.
