Zhu Qingyue said he was going to do demolition, but he really was going to do demolition.
In order to assemble his troops, Zhu Qingyue allowed his subordinate Zhukov to continue to besiege the three infantry divisions in the encirclement with all his strength. For three days, when the three Qiong Army infantry divisions were crumbling and the defense line was dilapidated, the Soviet heavy artillery could cover the most When the airport in the central area cut off support from the air, the minimum troops Zhu Qingyue was waiting for finally arrived.
The main forces of up to four armored divisions, two mechanized infantry divisions, and four infantry divisions finally arrived, plus 12 motley army infantry divisions gathered in accordance with orders in the northern region and 1 Qiong Army infantry unit that was resting With one Qiongjun mechanized infantry division, Zhu Qingyue already had enough capital in his hands to compete with Zhukov.
Under the cover of the overwhelming air force, Zhu Qingyue's tank-led counterattack began. Although Zhukov had already prepared for the Qiong Army's offensive operations and had deployed a line of defense for this, after all, his main force was still encircling and suppressing the encirclement. How could the Qiong Army's infantry with only part of their strength be able to stop Zhu Qingyue's armored assault?
After persisting for two days in the face of the attack by the Qiong Army's armored forces, Zhukov's defense line was completely overwhelmed, and then a large-scale melee broke out.
In the far north, four Soviet infantry divisions are on their way to reinforce. To the south, Zhukov's four armies surround the three infantry divisions of the Qiong Army. However, neither the three infantry divisions of the Qiong Army nor Zhukov's four armies are Already exhausted, the difference is. The Qiong army was exhausted by Zhukov's continuous offensives, while Zhukov's Soviet army was caused by continuous forced marches, high-intensity combat and suffocating air raids by the Qiongya Air Force.
To the south, there was the Zhu Qingyue Assault Group that had just defeated the Soviet defense line, and the Soviet troops who were driven away in all directions. On their periphery, there were a large number of Chinese miscellaneous troops who were watching eagerly and trying to beat up the drowned dogs. For these motley crews. It is indeed difficult to fight a tough battle with the Soviet army, but there is still no problem in fighting a smooth battle.

"So, Mongolia is in chaos now?" Even though the Soviet Union is fighting life and death at the front. But at this time, there was no trace of tension on Roger's face. Instead, he looked surprisingly relaxed. The reason was the German newspaper that Wu Yao, who was sitting opposite him, had brought.
Wu Yao glanced at Roger with a grimace: "Don't change the subject, okay? What we are talking about now is the German newspaper. Why did it get involved in Mongolia again?"
"Doesn't this have something to do with Mongolia?" Roger asked with a smile, "The above is what happened to us in Mongolia!"
"Yes, it is indeed about Mongolia, but look at the attitude of the Germans! This is their official newspaper! It has completely turned towards the Soviets, criticizing us throughout the article, as if this war is We provoked the same thing, and we said it so seriously. If I hadn't known about it, I would have thought that the whole thing was planned by the Germans, but I knew it so clearly!" Wu Yao said.
In Wu Yao¡¯s opinion. This kind of behavior by the Germans is simply an act of betrayal. China did offend Germany in supporting British destroyers before, but there is no need to be so ruthless, right? After all, the two sides haven't broken their skin yet. Isn't this a rush to push them into the arms of the Allies? ?
"Besides, China and Germany have an agreement with the Soviet Union. Although there is something wrong with the timing, no matter how you look at it, there is no need to be so obviously on the side of the Soviet Union, right?
Out of this consideration, Wu Yao always felt that this matter was weird.
"So, what do you think about this matter?" Roger asked Wu Yaodao.
"This approach of the Germans is a bit strange. I can't guarantee whether my guess is correct. I think this is probably a move used by the Germans to confuse the Soviets and make the Soviets think that the Germans are on their side. . So that we can relax our vigilance to facilitate their attacks." Wu Yao said, "But I don't quite understand, will this be too explicit? After all, in the eyes of outsiders, our relationship with Germany should still be good. The Germans There is absolutely no need to invest so much effort in publicizing this incident that has nothing to do with them.¡±
"Are you worried that the Germans not only failed to deceive the Soviets, but also exposed their offensive intentions?" Roger asked again.
Wu Yao nodded: "Yes, this is exactly what I find strange. I don't understand the true intention of the Germans in doing this, so I can't make up my mind diplomatically on how to deal with this pro-Soviet report from the Germans." .¡±
"How to deal with it? Why should we deal with it?" Roger smiled, "What the Germans think is their business, we just need to do it."Just keep it to yourself. There is no need to care about what they say. Soon, the Germans will use their actions to explain their intentions to us. "
"Action? You mean attacking the Soviet Union?" Wu Yao asked.
"That's natural. Do you think the Soviets don't know the Germans' hostility towards them? In fact, in order to deal with possible German attacks, Stalin was already deploying defenses before the Germans attacked Poland. They attacked Finland, The carving up of Poland and the infiltration of the Caucasus were all aimed at building a line of defense against the Germans." Roger said, "The nonsense the Germans wrote in the newspapers was not at all intended to deceive the Soviets about their intentions to fight against the Soviet Union. Bearded or bearded, both knew very well that there must be a war between Germany and the Soviet Union. The Germans did this just to conceal the time when they launched the war.
Let your diplomatic department be prepared. The Germans will soon go to war with the Soviet Union. Don't be caught off guard by the Germans' sudden attack and prepare temporary countermeasures. "
"This" Wu Yao looked at Roger in confusion. He really couldn't figure out why Roger was so sure that the Germans would launch an attack on the Soviet Union in the near future. Is it because of the newspaper thrown on the table?
Roger naturally would not tell Wu Yao that he dared to be so sure that the Germans would soon attack the Soviet Union because he knew the history. Now that the British cannot open up the situation, Mustache will definitely turn his target to the Soviet Union as he did in history. Europe's only remaining rival was the Soviet Union.
Neither the mustache nor the beard will pin their peace on a piece of paper, the Soviet-German Non-Aggression Pact. I'm afraid that Mustache has already sharpened his sword and is ready to attack at any time.
History is always written by the victors. The record in the official history is that "Germany betrayed its faith, brazenly tore up the Soviet-German non-aggression pact, gathered its client countries and launched an all-out aggressive war against the Soviet Union. The Soviet military and civilians rose up under the leadership of Stalin. resistance and launched the Great Patriotic War.¡±
In fact, the Soviets are not a fuel-efficient lamp. Historically, the Germans attacked and the Soviets defended. The only reason was that the Soviet offensive plan was launched later than the Germans. As a result, they did not go to the Germans to cause trouble, but the Germans came to kick them first.
Many people think that Mustache¡¯s initiative in provoking a war with the Soviet Union was a huge mistake in history. It is a taboo to fight on two fronts, but in fact no matter how stupid or neurotic Mustache is, he will not fail to understand this. The senior generals under him are also not a bunch of pigs. They all understood that if they did not attack, the Soviets would come over. Rather than letting the Soviets come over, they would be better off taking the initiative and placing the battlefield on the enemy's territory.
After Mustache quickly captured France and began to attack Britain, Stalin and his staff did not believe that Germany would march eastward without defeating Britain. To this end, in March 1941, the Supreme Command of the Soviet Union formulated the "Strategic Plan for Western Front Expansion", also known as the "Thunderstorm Plan," and clearly decided to "begin the attack on Germany on June 12." However, due to insufficient preparation, it had to be postponed to July.
And it was this time that was postponed. This allowed the Germans to launch the "Barbarossa" plan on June 22, more than ten days before the Soviet Union launched its attack. If the Soviets had not postponed the "Thunderstorm Plan", the Germans would have been beaten.
Roger has always believed that the poor performance of the Soviets in the early days of the Soviet-German War was by no means a reflection of their true combat power, but because the Soviet Union had accumulated heavy troops on the border. However, these troops were not used for defense, but for offense. Stalin never believed that the Germans would attack the Soviet Union before defeating Britain, so the defensive preparations of the Soviet troops on the front line were naturally out of the question. This also provided a great opportunity for Germany. The foundation was laid for the brilliant early victories of mankind.
In this time and space, Mustache does intend to use the conflict between China and the Soviet Union to cover for his "Barbarossa" plan.
The pro-Soviet stance of German newspapers on the Sino-Soviet conflict made Stalin even more certain that Mustache would launch an attack on him only after he had dealt with Britain. Otherwise, the Germans would not have reported so much on a conflict that had nothing to do with them, and their position was still so subtle. This clearly meant that they wanted to stabilize the Soviet Union so that they could buy time to defeat the United Kingdom!
When Stalin made this judgment, he became increasingly unwilling to continue investing in Mongolia. The Soviet Union's policy in the Far East was always defensive. The Soviet Union had already acquired North Korea and East Japan, and it did not continue at all in a short period of time. The desire for expansion, coupled with Germany's eagerness in Europe and China's obstruction of eastern expansion, further strengthened Stalin's willingness to attack in the west and defend in the east.
However, war can come according to your wishes, but it will not go according to your wishes. Once the war breaks out, Stalin will have no control over the direction of the war. It is not up to him to decide when to stop the war, or whether to stop the war. What people can say has the final say.Fortunately, not only Stalin, but Roger also had no intention of continuing to fight, not only because he was not ready yet, but also because the Germans were not ready to attack the Soviet Union. If he overran Mongolia, The bigger the war, the more Soviet troops will invest in the Mongolian region. In the end, the Soviet Union will suffer the consequences and the benefits will be taken by Mustache.
Roger has no intention of standing up for the Germans, nor does he have any intention of chewing hard bones. He now hopes that this conflict will end quickly and he will do whatever he wants to do. He will wait until the Germans and the Soviets fight. No matter if the Germans attack the Soviet Union, Well, whether the Soviet Union attacks Germany, in short, only after the Soviet Union focuses its operations on Europe and cannot withdraw from it will China have an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
The result of both sides being unwilling to continue the fight was that when the Americans appeared to be fine and tried to show their presence and came to mediate, both China and the Soviet Union readily agreed.
But in fact, the Americans had no intention of actually mediating this time! To put it bluntly, they are just showing off. Both China and the Soviet Union are threats to the United States. It is good to fight them, but it is best to cripple them both!
¡°But the Americans really didn¡¯t expect that they could persuade the two countries to agree to negotiate peace just by saying this casually. The Americans were dumbfounded.
As a result, under the unwilling mediation of the Americans, China and the Soviet Union quickly reached a peace agreement, the content of which was very simple - everything was restored to the original state before the conflict.
In this way, the Sino-Soviet border conflict ended 28 days after it started. The Qiong army lost 30,000 people inexplicably, and the Soviet army lost 50,000 people inexplicably.
??¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
After the inexplicable conflict ended, everything seemed to be back on track. Due to the Sino-Soviet conflict, the deployment of Soviet troops in Europe was seriously delayed. As a result, the "Thunderstorm Plan" was delayed from the time it was formulated to August 1941. moon.
In contrast, the Germans' "Barbarossa" plan was advanced due to the smooth implementation of the submarine strangulation war. In the eyes of Mustache, it is already a matter of time before Britain is completely overwhelmed by submarine warfare. Moreover, at this time, Britain does not have the strength to counterattack Europe, so it is just a matter of time to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with the threat from the East. After taking care of the Soviet Union, they can turn around and swallow the dying Britain and end this war completely.
"If this opportunity is missed, if the Americans join the war to support Britain, then Germany will inevitably face the dilemma of fighting on two fronts, with Britain receiving support and the Soviet Union always eyeing it.
The original purpose of the "Barbarossa" plan, which put the Germans into a two-front war dilemma, was precisely to avoid a two-front war. This has to be said to be an irony.
On May 18, 1941, the "Barbarossa" plan that shocked the world was launched. Suddenly, the Soviet-German border was filled with smoke. The Soviet army, which had been preparing to attack before, was caught off guard. In addition, Stalin did not understand Indiscriminately ordering a counterattack despite the frontline situation, the Soviet army, which had an absolute numerical advantage, collapsed in a very short period of time. Stalin, who had previously been dreaming of a military parade in Warsaw, was deceived. (To be continued)
