Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    April 10, 1942, for the Germans, was a post-victory carnival and another absolutely important goal for Hitler to conquer, but it was certainly not the last. For the Soviets, the flames of war were burning in the Soviet Union.  On our own land, it is the beginning of deep suffering. It is the retribution of Stalin for his greed of Chinese land. Those who always rob people will also rob them. The cycle of heaven will bring unfavorable retribution.

    As far as Tang Qiuli's role was concerned, he was undoubtedly the direct catalyst of the Soviet-German war and a participant in the formulation of specific campaign plans. He even changed the direction of the Soviet-German war and even its final outcome. Hitler adopted his suggestions.  , can avoid the failure in history that determined Germany's fate.

    Obviously, the great surprise of the successful raid on the Soviet Union made all the German party, government and military bosses in the office of the German head of state Hitler, get carried away. The Nazi Party Propaganda Minister Goebbels used poetic language to slap Hitler hard.  An extremely comfortable flattery greatly satisfied the vanity of the expressive head of state, while others expressed their ecstatic mood in another way.

    General Paul Schulenburg, the deputy national commander of the SS who never drank alcohol, shouted repeatedly: "Guards! Guards! Get a bottle of good whiskey right away. I want to make an exception and have a few drinks with the F¨¹hrer today."  !¡±

    Several other soldiers also shouted for wine. Hitler smiled and said: "Gentlemen, there are no restrictions in front of the victor. Let's make an exception today and let us drink as much as we want!"

    Goebbels was busy writing the broadcast script. Hitler rubbed his hands excitedly. After walking around the room for a few times, he said to Marshal von Strongs, Chief of the General Staff: "My dear Strongs, this  My old friend Tang Qiuli should know the good news. Yes, you must let him know. You should send a telegram immediately to inform him of our great victory, so that our old friend can share the joy of victory with us.  !¡±

    At about nine o'clock in the morning on April 10th, Tang Qiuli, who was in Saiyinshanda in southern Outer Mongolia, came outside with a very relaxed expression and looked at the snowflakes all over the sky, falling in a torrent.  Saiyinsanda was shrouded in a snowstorm. This heavy snowfall added a lot of difficulties to the troops directly under the corps lurking on the two wings of the Soviet Outer Mongolia Front. It also added a lot of difficulties to the East Point troops heading to the Chita area.  It's a good weather to hide your appearance.

    But for Vasilevsky, the difficulty is even greater.  On the way to retreat.  Covered in heavy snow, the Soviet army will be struggling, greatly slowing down its marching speed. This is fatal for the Soviet army that is eager to return to the European direction. The Soviets are currently lacking the most.  It's just time. Maybe he hasn't received the telegram from Moscow at this moment and is deploying offensive operations?

    Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe.  With a head full of snowflakes and a telegram, he came to Tang Qiuli and said with a smile: "Commander, Germany has been attacking the Soviet Union for more than three hours. As you expected, the Germans have sent a telegram.  "

    Tang Qiuli raised his head, closed his eyes slightly, and let the snowflakes fall on his face. A cold chill spread on his skin, but it made him feel very comfortable, "Oh? Hitler said it all  What? Is this some good news?" he asked casually.

    Zhao Yuhe seemed very relaxed and replied: "Commander, you guessed it right. The German General Staff sent us a battle report. The German army's raid was an unprecedented success. The German troops attacking from all directions encountered  The resistance was extremely weak. In the more than three hours since the war began, the average advance in the Soviet Union was more than 80 kilometers. At present, the various Lutheran troops continue to advance deep into the Soviet Union! "

    After a slight pause, Zhao Yuhe continued: "The German telegrams are full of complacency and showoff. However, from my personal point of view, this is just the beginning of the war, and the Soviet Union along the border  The army is not the main force. The muscles and bones of the Soviet army are not injured, and the main force is still there. The battle is about to begin. Next, there will be several decisive and fierce battles. Only then will the victory or defeat be determined. The Germans are celebrating now.  , is it too early?¡±

    Tang Qiuli opened his eyes, with a faint smile on his lips. As he walked into the house, he looked at Zhao Yuhe and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, Yuhe, is this how you see it?" His  The tone was very light, but Zhao Yuhe still heard a different meaning from it.

    Zhao Yuhe paused slightly, thought for a while, and replied a little cautiously: "Yes, Commander, I think so. The Soviet Union's war potential is undoubtedly huge. The German attack did not give the Soviet Army any  Moreover, the vast territory of the Soviet Union provided a huge room for strategic maneuver. As the German army continued to penetrate deep into the interior of the Soviet Union, the vast territory would dilute the German army's strength and continue to weaken the German army's offensive momentum. "

    Tang Qiuli took off his military coat and did not respond to Zhao Yuhe's words.?Can you, but then asked: "That's it, is there anything else?" There was no contempt or impatience in his tone, but more of encouragement!

    Zhao Yuhe relaxed his mind and regarded Quan as discussing a purely military strategic issue with the division commander, "Of course it's more than that. The German offensive cannot be maintained forever under the influence of the Soviet Union's huge strategic maneuver space.  In the early stage of the war, the German army would succeed repeatedly and the Soviet army would suffer heavy losses. However, as long as Stalin survived the most difficult stage in the early stage, the Soviet Union's land area, huge population base, and highly centralized national politics, and war  The potential will kill the Germans!¡±

    After saying this, Zhao Yuhe suddenly chuckled, "However, division commander, if Stalin made a series of mistakes in military command, this advantage would be consumed prematurely when the German offensive momentum was at its peak, and Germany would  It¡¯s really hard to say whether we will win or lose with the Soviet Union!¡±

    Tang Qiuli smiled and said half-jokingly: "Yuhe, after serving as chief of staff for several years, you have quite a lot of experience. You have said it both in terms of victory and defeat. You are firmly in an invincible position, ah.  !¡ª¡ªHahaha!"

    Zhao Yuhe blushed a little. He could hear the teasing tone in the commander's tone, and he was still arguing a few words, but Tang Qiuli changed the subject, "Yuhe, I talked about the Outer Mongolia Front Army, are there any new actions?"

    Zhao Yuhe replied: "No, the leading three armies are still advancing in the direction of Seyinshanda according to the original plan. Due to the heavy snow, the number of our combat aircraft dispatched has been reduced, and the Soviet army's advancement speed is faster than  It was obviously much faster in the past few days!¡±

    Tang Qiuli had a sarcastic smile on his lips and said to Zhao Yuhe: "Well, there is no new trick. Yuhe, remind the troops on both wings to pay attention to hidden traces. In addition, pay close attention to the movements of the Soviet army. You go and do it."  Bar!"

    Zhao Yuhe left, and Tang Qiuli was the only one left in the house, who seemed very quiet. When he walked to the window, the howling northwest wind had subsided. He looked at the falling snowflakes, rendering the world into chaos.  It seems that you can hear the slight "swishing" sound when the snowflakes fall to the ground.

    Tang Qiuli's thoughts returned to the conversation with Zhao Yuhe just now. Zhao Yuhe was right. The Soviet Union's war potential was absolutely huge. If the direction of history remained the same as before, it would follow the old path.  There is a trajectory to move forward, and the defeat of the Germans is only a matter of time.

    However, now that he has intervened, the direction of history has changed in this major event that affects the entire world. First of all, the date of the German attack was a full two and a half months earlier than recorded in history. Secondly, as soon as the war began,  From the beginning, elite troops were dispatched to seize the Soviet Union's Transcaucasian oil fields, which had never happened in history after Germany took action against the Soviet Union.

    However, in the second year of the war, the German offensive, amidst the gradually increasing resistance of the Soviet army, had lost the vigor at the beginning of the war. The Soviet Union's war potential had become apparent. Hitler felt that,  Germany's resources were increasingly unable to cope with the huge consumption of the war against the Soviet Union. Only then did it think of seizing the Soviet oil resources for its own use, but it was too late.

    Stalin also saw the key problem and deployed heavy troops around the Transcaucasus oil fields. The German army failed to get even half a step closer to the Caucasus oil fields until their defeat. In Tang Qiuli's view, at the beginning of the war, the Soviet oil base was not captured.  The oil fields in the Caucasus were the main factors for the German army's defeat of the Soviet Union. The weather and the potential for war came second. In the Soviet-German war, Germany fought with large-scale mechanized corps. They advanced rapidly and outflanked the war. They were very dependent on oil.  Extremely high.

    Seizing the Caucasus oil fields can not only replenish the German army's oil needs, but also cut off the blood vessels of the Soviet army. It is a plan that kills two birds with one stone. This was also the reason why when discussing the "Barbarossa Plan" with Hitler when he was in Germany, he strongly advocated for the plan.  A surprise force, the original intention was to quickly seize the Soviet Caucasus oil fields.

    I remember that at that time, Hitler was very disapproving, thinking that it was unnecessary. The Caucasus oil field area was not an important military fortress of the Soviet Union, nor was it a politically and economically dense area of ??the Soviet Union. It was a sparsely populated barren land that could not be compared to the ten Caucasus regions.  A Moscow or a Stalingrad.

    Hitler¡¯s greatest interest was in seizing important cities in the Soviet Union, especially Moscow. In his view, occupying Moscow meant that the Soviet Union had been defeated. Tang Qiuli subdued Hitler with just a few words.

    ¡°Your Excellency, Head of State, if you want me to participate in this plan, then to occupy the Soviet Caucasus oil fields, you must send the most elite troops to implement it at the beginning of the war. Otherwise, I am not interested in this plan!¡±

    The fire in the stove made a "pop-pop" sound, which was particularly clear in the silent room, making Tang Qiuli's eyes tremble.The excitement brought him back to reality, "Now, I'm afraid the news of the German army's attack on the Soviet Union has reached Moscow, right?" He thought to himself.
