    Stalin was furious after learning the true situation on the front line. People outside vaguely heard crackling sounds coming from the General Secretary's office. Everyone knew that this was the General Secretary venting his dissatisfaction, but since Trotsky lost power last year  This rarely happened after that. Unexpectedly, the voice sounded again today.

    After venting his anger, Stalin walked out with a fatherly smile. The staff who had been prepared quickly took the time to clean up his room.

    Stalin strolled in the garden, his mood gradually calmed down. He decided to give Blucher a few more days. He pretended that he didn't know about this now. If there is still no good news in a few days, then he will have to pay the price.

    Of course Blyukher, who is far away in Chita, does not know everything that is happening in the Kremlin. He is planning what to do next. Now there are only two ways in front of him:

    First: Report the situation to Stalin and ask for support

    Second: Conceal it and don¡¯t report it, and wait until the war situation improves to report the good news directly

    Now the situation is obvious. It is very difficult to break through Mongolia or Manchuria. Without the support of artillery, both infantry and cavalry can only become living targets of the Chinese Army. I always thought that I had underestimated the Chinese National Defense Force, but I didn't expect it.  They still underestimated that the current Chinese National Defense Force could no longer be defeated by the hundreds of thousands of them. Even if the ten most elite divisions of the Soviet Union were mobilized, it would be difficult to compete with the Chinese National Defense Force. The disadvantages in weapons and equipment are not relying on soldiers.  Their courage can make up for it. Especially when the opponent is still on the defensive, the Soviet army may have to have several times more troops than the opponent if it wants to win.

    Blucher also knew that he could not hide it from Stalin for long. Even if he won the battle and did not report the initial defeat, once Stalin found out that he would not be better off. He had been weighing the pros and cons between reporting and not reporting. He would never  What I never expected was that Stalin already knew about the situation here.

    After thinking for a long time, he decided to adopt a compromise method, which is to not report now and wait until tomorrow morning. If the war has not improved, he will report honestly to Stalin. Now what he has to do is to supervise the troops and make progress as soon as possible.

    Kristoff couldn't stand being pushed by Bluucher. This was the first day of the war. Even if he was to kill a pig, he still had to prepare for a long time. The military orders from above had to be carried out, so he had to organize another troop charge.  This time is different from the previous times. The scale this time is much larger than the previous times. In the previous times, we went one group at a time. This time, we went to 3 groups at once.

    Kristof's plan is that if these three regiments cannot make any achievements, they will have to temporarily stop the attack. He only has 3 divisions and 9 regiments at his disposal. From 4 o'clock this morning to now, he has fought almost 12 battles.  It was almost an hour, and the soldiers were very tired. If this continued, even the Iron Warriors wouldn't be able to bear it. What he didn't expect was that this charge would actually be the last charge of the Soviet army in this battle.

    Encouraged by political commissars at all levels, the great Soviet Red Army continued to rush towards the positions of the imperialist dog legs, the Chinese Communist Party.

    "Oh, this old guy really mistreats people. Come on, let's be polite and get ready to shoot." Shen Zhengming, commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 10th Division, ordered as soon as he saw the Soviets rushing up again.

    After receiving orders from above, the soldiers in the trenches loaded their bullets one after another, aiming at the increasingly clear sight of Red Army soldiers from far to near.

    Squint Eyes is a sharpshooter in the 2nd Regiment. He seems like he can't open his eyes all day long. Others call him Squint Eyes. His eyes are not big. Even if he can't open his eyes, his shooting skills are very accurate. Back then, Zhang Anle was the deputy.  When I was a brigade commander, I competed with him in marksmanship many times, but I lost every time.

    This guy is a stubborn and boring guy. His platoon leader called him a guy who can't beat him with three sticks. He needs to be replaced by a slightly smarter boss. He has been in contact with the deputy brigade commander so many times and has a skill that has been promoted to him long ago.  This is not to say that Zhang Anle won't promote him because he can't win with narrow eyes, but this guy is too boring, and such a character is not suitable for being an officer.

    After Zhang Anle reorganized the Northwest Army, he specially brought together the shooting experts of the entire army for sniper training. As someone who had fought against Zhang Anle, he was naturally one of them.

    After the training, he became the precision shooter and deputy squad leader of the 2nd Regiment and 3rd Company. All precision shooters' guns are specially made. Not only are they equipped with scopes, they have a long range and high accuracy. Their mission is to kill the enemy.  People's military officers, one of their training subjects was to identify the military ranks and uniforms of China, the Soviet Union, Japan, Britain and France, etc.

    ¡° He squinted his eyes tightly against the scope, searching for his target. In the morning, he killed a company commander and two platoon commanders. I don¡¯t know what his luck will be in the afternoon.

    Huangtian paid off and finally let him find a guy with three copper red rectangles nailed on his collar badge. This guy wasThe commander, squinting his eyes, began to feel excited. He was still more than 400 meters away from him. He squinted his eyes to eliminate distracting thoughts, as if there were only the captain and himself between the world.

    ? One step, two steps, three steps

    Narrowing his eyes and staring at the group leader, he finally entered his shooting range

    Squinting his eyes without any hesitation, he pulled the trigger with his index finger that had been on it for a long time.

    "boom"

    The bullet flew out of the chamber at a speed of 820 meters and flew straight towards the enemy more than 300 meters away.

    "Comrades, charge and hit the imperial master" Kholmev shouted slogans and led the soldiers to charge forward. He was only halfway through the shouting when his voice suddenly stopped.

    A red dot appeared between his eyebrows, and he fell to the ground instantly

    Narrowing his eyes, he saw that he had hit the regiment leader. He happily patted the ground with his hand, and then began to roll call the soldiers in front.

    Sparse gunshots began to ring out. Each gunshot meant that a soldier had left the huge number of precision shooters in the world, efficiently harvesting the enemy's lives.

    "Da da da¡­¡­"

    As the Soviet Red Army got closer and closer to the Wehrmacht position, suddenly there was a burst of gunfire on the position

    The bullets poured out by Maxim and 1918 formed a huge firepower net. Many Soviet Red Army soldiers had no time to grunt, and the number of Red Army soldiers killed by several bullets began to rise rapidly. The soldiers at the front were like  Like a wall, they all fell down and then became the front row. The soldiers at the back rushed forward one after another. The powerful firepower of the National Defense Force seemed to draw a line of death in front of the position. Anyone who came close would definitely die.

    Through the telescope, Christoph looked at his soldiers falling one by one on the way to the charge. His heart was like a knife to the death of the order. He cursed in his heart that he could not continue like this and wanted to capture the defense army position in a short time.  It was simply impossible. He turned around and walked into the command post to send a telegram to Blucher requesting to stop the attack.

    "The heroic Soviet Red Army is not afraid of sacrifice, but we cannot let them sacrifice like this in vain. Without the fire cover of artillery, letting the soldiers charge is equivalent to risking death. Please wait for reinforcements to arrive before making plans."

    Blucher looked at the telegram sent by Kristoff, and his expression was not good, because this was not the first telegram he had received. Several division commanders had also sent telegrams before, asking him to act steadily, otherwise this situation would continue.  It will only affect the morale of the soldiers

    Of course Blyucher knew that continuing to fight like this would affect his morale, but if he continued to fight like this, his future would be affected. Should he choose to preserve the strength of his troops or choose his own future?  The reason of Bluucher's soldiers defeated the madness of politicians.

    "Order all troops to stop attacking and wait for orders." Having made up his mind, Blucher gave the order to his chief of staff, and then drafted a telegram to be sent to Stalin.

    Since he could not make a breakthrough in the war, he could only report the truth to Stalin

    After receiving Blyucher's report, Stalin learned that the Central Route Army had concentrated all its artillery together in order to concentrate its firepower attack. What they did not expect was that the advantage of concentrated firepower had not yet been realized, and instead they were discovered by the opponent's aircraft and sent their artillery fire.  The position was destroyed

    Only then did Stalin realize that he had made an empirical mistake. He thought that Blyucher had been in China for several years and had been serving as China's military adviser. He should know the Chinese Army very well, but Blyucher knew China well.  This is true, but what he knows about the Kuomintang troops is that he knows very little about the National Defense Forces.

    Now that the mistake has been made, it is wrong to make mistakes. After all, it is almost impossible to find someone who knows more about the Chinese team than Bliucher. Not to mention that he has been in the Far East for several years and is very familiar with that land.

    There is no way to replenish the artillery for the time being, so we have to support the air force first. Stalin immediately ordered the 13th and 14th Aviation Squadrons and the 15th and 16th Bomb Squadrons to support the Far East Front

    ?Bluucher was still worried about Stalin not punishing him. He also knew that he had not many chances. If the supporting air force arrived and he could not produce corresponding results, Stalin would definitely make him suffer.

    What neither Blyucher nor Stalin expected was that in just one day, the offensive and defensive roles of the Soviet and Chinese armies changed. Along with the change in war roles, the initiative in war also changed.

    Duolun County, National Defense Forces Headquarters

    "Report" Liu Chengkun knocked on the door and said loudly

    "Please come in." Zhang Anle raised his head from the pile of cases and responded.

    "Commander-in-chief, telegram from the front line" Liu Chengkun put the document on Zhang Anle's desk

    "Okay, you can send these two telegrams," Zhang Anle pointed to the documents on his right and said.

    "It's the commander-in-chief" Liu Chengkun said??The document saluted Zhang Anle and turned to leave.

    Zhang Anle opened the file and read a few telegrams.

    The contents of the telegrams are similar, that is to say, the Soviet Union has stopped charging and has withdrawn its positions. It is okay to stop charging, but it is a bit wrong for the three fronts to stop attacking at the same time. Because the three fronts are not under the same command, each front has its own tasks and methods.

    Is it playing hard to get?  Or can¡¯t afford to wait for reinforcements?  If you think about it carefully, the first possibility is unlikely. Although the battle lasted only a dozen hours, the Soviet casualties were very serious. At least thousands of Soviet Red Army soldiers have fallen forever. It seems that they have already fallen.  We can no longer afford it, so we started waiting for reinforcements. Since they don¡¯t have the strength to attack again, it¡¯s time for us to dispatch.
