In the face of a confrontation between the two countries, a life-and-death fight, the most terrible thing is to make strategic mistakes. Once the strategy is misjudged, the consequences are quite terrible, and even one step is wrong, the next step is wrong, and finally the result is a total loss. Now Moscow¡¯s top leaders are in such an embarrassing position. They have put their main force in the Far East, but the Chinese have launched an attack in Central Asia. ¡°The Russians had received similar intelligence before, saying that China was increasing its troops in Xinjiang, but Moscow did not believe it at all. The Chinese held large-scale military parades, bombed the Far East, and made frequent promises to the Far East. It is obvious that China wants to focus on the Far East rather than other regions. Until after the Chinese army passed through the Alashan Pass and invaded Akdoka, the Russians still suspected that China was just feinting. But then the Chinese army moved south along Lake Balkhash and headed straight into the hinterland of Central Asia. Moscow's top brass finally came to their senses. The main location of the Chinese attack is Central Asia. All the previous actions were just a performance, just to confuse myself. Once they found out that they had been deceived, the top brass in Moscow were very angry. They all knew that Central Asia was the area with the weakest control of Russia. Once the Chinese army entered, the consequences would be disastrous. Comrade Iron and Steel also felt an unprecedented crisis. Compared with history, Comrade Iron and Steel's power was still expanding rapidly. However, due to the First World War in the Far East, his close confidants Budyonny's generals were severely damaged, which reduced the power of his army. It is a truth that has been true since ancient times when political power is greatly weakened and political power emerges from the barrel of a gun. The military power was weakened, and Stalin was still some distance away from supreme power. And Trotsky and others still have considerable power to speak. This disturbance in the Far East was largely instigated by Trotsky. Trotsky hoped for foreign war. Reuniting the morale of the left, strengthening everyone's revolutionary beliefs, and taking back the Far East also played an important role in exporting the revolution. Therefore, after careful weighing, Trotsky made such a risky move. But the start was not smooth, and now Trotsky's situation is even more difficult than that of steel. These high-level officials in Moscow sat together, all with sinking faces, and no one was willing to say a word. After five minutes of silence, everyone's eyes fell on Trotsky. Stalin also said: "Comrade Trotsky, what measures do you think the Chinese will take next?" "I think they have "Two options." Trotsky also said: "The first is to capture the area along Lake Balkhash, then go north to attack Karaganda and Astana, and then further threaten Omsk, which will serve as a hub on the Siberian Railway. Omsk was threatened, and the Far East Army was in danger of being destroyed. ""If it was so dangerous, why didn't we notice it when the battle plan was proposed, but waited until the Chinese launched an attack? An attitude of responsibility?" Facing Stalin's question, Trotsky could only lower his head. He did make a mistake on this issue. He could only remain silent for a while, and then said: "This route is unlikely. To penetrate more than 800 kilometers into the Soviet Union, the Chinese simply do not have the ability. I think it is more likely that they will choose the second option, which is Go south around Lake Balkhash and attack Almaty and Bishkek. The Chinese have repeatedly claimed that this was China¡¯s former territory and they wanted to take it back from us.¡± After hearing this, Stalin and others were noncommittal. At this time, the official in charge of intelligence suddenly ran in in a panic and sent the latest intelligence. Stalin took it and just took a look at it. He immediately became furious and furious. The Chinese government has just announced a list of canonizations, and a total of twelve Central Asian princes have been canonized. China encourages them to stand up and establish independent and autonomous countries belonging to the people of Central Asia. China turned the Russian rule into a complete colonial state. They deprived the Central Asian people of their land, wealth, and even their lives. The people of Central Asia have reached a critical moment of life and death, and China and the entire world will help you. Of course, the help is not just verbal. China¡¯s used arms have found a market again, and they were all half-sold and half-given to these princes. Moreover, China also instructed Junaid Khan to promulgate a fatal decree, which is the so-called property law. Why people in Central Asia oppose Russia? The reason is very simple. It is that they brutally implemented agricultural collectivization, forcibly deprived the people of their wealth, and adopted a brutal elimination policy against the rich peasants. China has taken the right approach and enacted a property rights law, promising to protect private property and make it sacrosanct. Leaflets in various languages ??were printed and spread by airplane. At the same time, a radio station was set up, and invisible radio waves spread the voice of China. War is not just a frontline battle.?It is also a battle for the hearts and minds of the people, especially in areas like Central Asia where Russia's traditional power is not strong. There is a lot of resentment among the people, and they have long been looking forward to driving away Russia. Coupled with the encouragement of property rights laws, all rich farmers in Central Asia saw the hope of maintaining a wealthy life. A bucket of oil was poured into the fire, and Central Asia was boiling. The most irritating thing is that Chinese planes not only drop leaflets, but also guns. The people of Central Asia are already fierce. After seeing the leaflets, they grabbed their guns and organized small teams to resist Russia. Coupled with the former Basmachi, the prince's followers, a wave of resistance swept through Central Asia. Russia's government seats, military camps, warehouses, roads, and railways were all harassed, and Russia's control over Central Asia was almost reduced to zero. Only the Russian troops in a few cities are still struggling to support themselves, just like isolated islands in the sea, which may be swallowed up at any time. The top Russian officials are aware of the situation in Central Asia, and they also know that the situation is not good. The top Russian officials were simply frightened three times a day, so they could only increase the intensity of recruiting troops. However, it takes time to mobilize troops, and it also takes time to raise supplies. Obviously, time is not on Russia's side. Just as they were scrambling to make adjustments, bad news came out again. Zarek was attacked by an air strike! After hearing the news, Stalin immediately slammed the table and almost cursed Trotsky for being stupid. Zarek is the southern gateway to Karaganda, which in turn is the barrier to Astana. When the Chinese army attacked here, it was obvious that they chose the way north, and their target was Astana or even Omsk. Trotsky also felt a blush. There was no doubt that he was wrong again. The Chinese were more daring than imagined. They dared to go deep alone and attack the Russian hinterland. They simply did not take Russia seriously. "Comrade Stalin, I am willing to personally lead the troops to fight. I will defend Astana to the death and never let the Chinese army come in." Trotsky, who was angry and angry, said loudly. He was ready to go into battle naked and fight with the Chinese side. Don't think that Trotsky was a scholar. This guy¡¯s military talents are also quite powerful. He is known as the founder of the Russian army. He crawled through the trenches with the soldiers and fought to the death with the White Army. He is also a veteran soldier who has experienced the enemy for a long time. Stalin frowned slightly. Trotsky couldn't stand it, so he wanted to go out in person. This was a good thing, but also a bad thing. Letting him take over the military power would definitely be detrimental to Stalin, especially after winning the war, it would be a big threat. , but what if Thinking of this, Stalin said calmly: "Comrade Trotsky, the war situation is very dangerous. A strong commander must be there to reverse the situation. I think it is absolutely right for you to step forward. Not only Militaryly, to defeat the Chinese, we must also stabilize the situation in Central Asia and resolutely attack the momentum of those feudal princes. "The Russians are quickly adjusting their deployment, but although their speed is fast, they cannot be faster than the Chinese side. They have already entered. Entering the age of mechanization, the attack speed of the Central Asian Front led by the Guards Division far exceeded the imagination of the Russians. The army surged all the way, as if entering uninhabited territory. From the beginning of the war to the present, they captured Akdoka in less than two days, Balkhash on the fifth day, and Agadir and Zarek on the tenth day. . After ten days of sudden advance of more than 400 kilometers, the Supreme Command was asking almost every moment where they rushed to and where they ended up! Regarding the progress of the armored forces, China itself cannot believe it. This is not a war, but simply an armed attack. The attack is far smoother than imagined. It seems that the only thing that can stop the tank troops is fuel. Only when they run out of fuel can these guys stop and take a rest. ??In fact, this is also the case. The armored forces must have sufficient logistical support. Since the war started, the logistics force has been under the greatest pressure. In order to ensure the supply of the front line, the reclamation corps in Xinjiang and other places were completely mobilized, and manpower and animal power were drawn from them. A special convoy was formed to transport materials. After leaving the country, local laborers in Central Asia were recruited to assist in transportation. People in Central Asia even offered help out of disgust for the Soviet Union. On the entire transportation line, a total of more than 300,000 civilians were mobilized, as well as more than a thousand vehicles and tens of thousands of mules and horses. However, the attack speed of the armored troops was still beyond imagination, so that the logistics troops were always left behind. Tank soldiers often have to stop and wait for fuel, which makes the soldiers very distressed. This is the case for Huang Xiansheng. His troops have rushed to a place only thirty kilometers away from Karaganda. The troops once again had to stop due to lack of fuel. The strong winds in Central Asia in the past few days have caused many soldiers to suffer a lot, and their lipsIt was so blown that it cracked, and there was yellow sand everywhere in my clothes and hair. After finally being able to take a break, everyone also took the time to eat something and regain their strength. At this moment, a large number of planes suddenly appeared in the distance and rushed towards us quickly. "Have our bombers taken action again?" "No, the temporary airport at Zarek is still under repair" Before the staff officer finished speaking, Huang Xiansheng immediately shouted: "Quick, the enemy is attacking, disperse quickly. open!"
