Stalin sat on the sofa, his brows furrowed tightly. Various countries had issued strong condemnations of the Soviet Union's attack on foreign countries. Except for a few small countries supported by the Soviet Union, every country in the world had criticized the Soviet Union's actions. Even defeated countries such as Germany and Japan issued announcements condemning the Soviet Union's banditry.
At this moment, Stalin has begun to think seriously about the problem. The territory of the Soviet Union is very large, and the Soviet Union has many people. But Stalin still didn't have the courage to make enemies of all countries in the world. It is estimated that except for Hitler, a madman, no country leader in the world dares to make enemies of all countries in the world.
"After the Chinese government achieved a great victory, they have begun to publish victory reports everywhere. Major countries such as the United States and Britain have sent congratulatory messages to China to express their positions. They will not stand with us. I am worried that after the war lasts for a long time, these The country will also take the opportunity to participate in this battle, directly causing the Third World War." Zhukov walked to Stalin's side and said slowly.
Looking at Stalin's white hair, Zhukov had a helpless expression on his face. After the battle with Germany, the Soviet Union had reached the point of exhaustion. Originally, they thought that as long as the Soviet army launched an attack on the foreign powers, the foreign powers would be defeated. It would fall into the hands of the Soviet Union, but they definitely did not expect that it would lead to the current result.
"We can still bear the casualties of hundreds of thousands. I am already thinking about the preparations to require the reservists to be converted into active duty soldiers. We have lost hundreds of thousands of people, but we have the ability to recruit hundreds of thousands more in a short period of time. People's troops. As long as the Chinese government is willing to continue the fight, we will accompany it to the end. The gains and losses of foreign power have a great impact on us. Western countries suppress us in Europe. Once foreign power falls into the hands of China, , China will also suppress us in Asia. By that time, we will have no ability to fight back. General Zhukov, you should be sure, no one can guarantee when the war will happen." Stalin stood slowly He stood up, holding his pipe in his mouth, walked to the map, and said with a serious face.
Zhukov nodded. In this era, no one can guarantee that the war will end with the end of World War II. The Soviet Union¡¯s decision to attack foreign countries was decided within a few days. If foreign countries are still controlled by China, no one can guarantee that one day Western countries and Chinese troops will unite to attack the Soviet Union.
"Sakhalin Island has been taken over by China, and we have also strengthened our defense on Heixiazi Island. In addition, according to the current situation, the Tushetu Khan's assault group is in danger of being surrounded by Chinese troops. Once they are surrounded Get up, the Novosibirsk Front Army has no ability to rescue them. Let them stop the attack on Kulun and attack the city of Buying and Selling with the troops of the Novosibirsk Front Army." Stalin looked at the map and immediately issued the order.
"Once we give up attacking Coulun, it may be difficult for us to have a chance to capture Coulun. There are not many garrison troops in Coulun now. Although there is a small group of Chinese troops blocking the attack, as long as we occupy Coulun, it will have a great impact on the entire war situation. What's more, the assault group has two infantry corps and five tank brigades. It is still difficult for the Chinese army to eat these troops." Zhukov said hurriedly.
Stalin looked back, his eyes a little unhappy.
Zhukov quickly closed his mouth, lowered his head and remained silent.
"Go and carry out my orders." Stalin said coldly.
At this time, Zhukov did not dare to have any opinions and quickly walked out.
?Outer m¨¦ng, outside the Coulomb.
In order to quickly control Coulomb, the commander of the assault group Chuikov spent a lot of money. Among the two infantry corps, five tank brigades, and one artillery division, Chuikov dispatched four infantry divisions and four tanks at once. Brigade, an artillery division, took part in the attack on Cullen.
Fortunately, at this moment, the defense mission of Cullen has been taken over by the Third Armored Corps, and the general headquarters of the Outer Meng Theater has also been transferred elsewhere. Cullen became the headquarters of the Armored Corps, and Zhang Junzhe led the personnel of the headquarters. Here, the armored corps' operations are unified and commanded.
After several days of marching, the Soviet vanguard tank unit had begun to fight with the Chinese troops in the outer guard positions. However, what made the Soviet army very proud was that the Chinese troops were defeated in one blow and had no intention of holding on. This made the Soviet army very proud. The troops of the Chinese army were very happy, thinking that the Chinese troops in front of them were simply vulnerable.
Tuxie Tuhan Department, Soviet assault group headquarters.
Chuikov looked at his subordinatesReport, with a proud smile on his face. Although he learned that most of his friendly forces were surrounded and annihilated by Chinese troops, Chuikov at this moment was only thinking about quickly capturing Cullen and boosting the morale of his friendly forces.
Of course, the reason why he wanted to seize the title was mainly because he had held the rank of lieutenant general for three full years. He wanted to take advantage of this time when the Soviet army suffered a huge blow from the Chinese army and create If a miracle happens, let the Soviet army promote you to the rank of general.
"Commander, are our troops progressing a little too fast? The Chinese troops seem to be intending to attract us to Cullen. Once anything happens here, the Novosibirsk Front Army does not have any troops that can rescue us." The chief of staff looked at He said with a worried look on the map in front of him.
Chuikov did not pay attention to this, pointing to the map and said, "Now the main force of the Chinese army is concentrated in the trading city. Kulun is just an empty city. Even if there is a small group of infantry, they will not be our opponent. As long as we capture Kulun , will have a great impact on the entire war situation."
Although Chuikov spoke with a righteous face and tried his best to describe his attack on Cullen as beneficial to the entire war situation, the chief of staff knew very well that Chuikov's actions were just for the sake of his military rank.
"Commander, an urgent message from Moscow." A staff officer walked up to Chuikov.
A smile appeared on Chuikov's face. At this time, Moscow directly sent him electricity, which surprised him, but he also knew that now was his chance to show off.
"Does the Supreme Commander have any instructions?" Chuikov asked with a proud look on his face.
"The Supreme Commander requires us to quickly give up the attack on Kulun, and the main force of the troops will return to support the Novosibirsk Front and attack the city of Buying and Selling." The staff officer quickly read out the contents of the message.
Chuikov had a displeased expression on his face, and he was very angry in his heart, but he did not dare to disobey Stalin's orders.
"Order the troops attacking Cullen to retreat and quickly return to support the trading city." Chuikov said with an angry look.
The staff officer nodded and quickly walked out.
At night, the Soviet troops that attacked Cullen began to march in the direction of Buying City. However, their march was not very smooth. Instead, they marched slowly under the attack of the Third Armored Army.
If the First Armored Corps had not reached the designated position, I am afraid that the troops of the Third Armored Corps would have launched an attack long ago.
Northeast, Fuyuan County.
The headquarters of the airborne brigade has been established here and is ready to attack Heixiazi Island. The warship units dispatched by the Navy are also ready in the surrounding areas. Once the airborne brigade completes the airdrop, the Marine Division troops will forcefully land on Heixiazi Island.
"The operation started at five o'clock in the morning. After the airdrop, each regiment quickly assembled to occupy a nearby predetermined location to support the Marine Division's landing operation. This is the first battle of our airborne brigade. I hope everyone can be qualified for their respective tasks." Xu Hu stood at the In front of the map, he looked at the three group leaders and said.
"Yes, brigade seat." The group leaders saluted quickly.
Xu Hu nodded, looked at the time and said, "Go back and prepare."
The group leaders saluted and walked out.
Heixiazi Island, also known as Fuyuan Delta and Xiongxiazi Island, is an island system located at the intersection of Heilongjiang River and Ussuri River. In 1929, Zhang Xueliang led the Northeastern Army to seize back the telegraph and telephone rights of the Middle East Railway and repatriated Soviet employees. This triggered a large-scale armed conflict between China and the Soviet Union for ownership of the Middle East Railway. In the end, Zhang Xueliang was defeated, but Heixiazi Island, which was Chinese territory, was It was forcibly occupied by the Soviet Union for no reason, and until the end of World War II, the Soviet Union had no intention of returning it.
This time the Soviet army took the initiative to attack Waimeng, which gave Yang Junran an opportunity to regain Heixiazi Island.
This time, the Chinese military has deployed a cruiser combat unit, a battleship combat unit, and a submarine combat brigade. China¡¯s only Marine Division and its only Airborne Brigade have been dispatched so far, totaling nearly 30,000 people.
Among them, the Marine Division's equipment is fully mechanized, with three combat regiments, one artillery regiment, and six battalions directly under the division headquarters, which are divided into engineering, artillery, communications, reconnaissance, attack, and supply battalions. Although the Marine Division has more than 17,000 personnel, its combat effectiveness is very strong.
On Heixiazi Island, the total strength of the Soviet army was only one infantry division with more than 10,000 troops. They would not have thought that Chinese troops would attack here.
Although Stalin issued an order to strengthen the defense force of Heixiazi Island, theforce, but did not receive any reinforcements.
Heixiazi Island, Soviet Army Division Headquarters.
Teacher Commander Mishanin drank the wine with a smile on his face. His days here are simply like paradise, and he is the emperor of this paradise. Here he can punish anyone, and can also enjoy all kinds of wonderful food. If possible, he will even secretly send troops and ride on Transport ships, robbing Chinese people.
"Division Commander, the recent situation is very abnormal. Chinese reconnaissance aircraft have been conducting reconnaissance here for several days. Could it be that they want to attack here? We don't have many troops here. Once attacked by them, I'm afraid It¡¯s hard to hold the position,¡± Chief of Staff Creech said, walking next to Mishanin.
Mishanin frowned tightly. He hated this chief of staff very much. The most important thing was that Mishanin had learned that the superiors intended to promote this chief of staff to the position of division commander to replace him.
"I know about this. Go to the position and check it carefully." Mishanin said with an unhappy look.
Krich nodded helplessly and walked out.
Looking at Krich¡¯s helpless look, a smile appeared on Mishanin¡¯s face.
