    Chapter 771 The extremely excited Japanese

    In the battle in the Hujirt Mountains of Outer Mongolia, the Soviet Far East Special Forces were completely annihilated. This shocked the top leaders of the Soviet Union greatly. Stalin held a Politburo meeting overnight to discuss countermeasures to deal with this emergency. The atmosphere of the meeting seemed a bit depressing. Political  The bureau members were silent.

    Stalin did not set the tone, and the meeting could not get to the point. Countless questions and judgments were swirling in Stalin's mind. This newly emerging military and political strongman in China would give the Soviet Union a decisive blow as soon as he made a move. Tang Qiuli used this method  The gesture forced his way into Stalin's heart. Regardless of whether he accepted it or not, this young general, China's most powerful at present, brought endless troubles to Stalin.

    Based on the psychological analysis of politicians, there must be some powerful force secretly supporting Tang Qiuli. Otherwise, Tang Qiuli would not dare to take action against the Soviet Union's sphere of influence. The United States and Britain were the largest.  Perhaps, the Japanese were simply excluded by Stalin, and Britain and the United States had plans in the Far East to launch China's newly emerged warlord Tang Qiuli to challenge the Soviet Union. Outer Mongolia was just the beginning.

    Stalin considered everything except that Outer Mongolia has been China's territory since ancient times. If the Soviets had not intervened behind the scenes and would not hesitate to split the territory of a sovereign country for their own interests, there would have been no uprising by Qiubashan and others.  , and has caused de facto corruption.

    The Russians have had a pathological greed for territory since the Tsarist era. During the Tsarist era, Russia's national emblem was a double-headed eagle with its feet on the earth, looking at Europe on the one hand and Asia on the other.  Russia won the victory and the national emblem was replaced by the hammer and sickle, but the double-headed eagle was deeply hidden in Stalin's heart. The unreasonable demands for Finnish territory and the coveting of Chinese territory in Asia all stem from the inherent mentality.

    To be honest, Stalin did not have much interest in Outer Mongolia, which was either grassland or Gobi, with a vast territory, sparse population, and not many resources. It was just because it was aimed at the favorable strategic position of China, a big country in the south. It was as simple as that. If the Soviet Union devoted all its national power, Tang  Qiu Li is definitely not an opponent, but the Soviet Union's defense focus is in Europe. Hitler coveted the territory of the Soviet Union as much as he desired the territories of other countries. There are also the Japanese on the northeastern border.  The arrogant wolf has coveted the Far East of the Soviet Union for a long time.

    In the final analysis, Outer Mongolia cannot be lost, and the Soviet Union cannot devote all its national power to deal with Tang Qiuli. Stalin already had a basic idea. He raised his head and asked Yegorov, Chief of Staff of the Soviet Army: "Comrade Yegorov, General Administration of Military Intelligence  "How much information do you have about this Chinese general Tang Qiuli?" Yegorov shook his head and replied dryly: "Comrade Stalin, there is very little, almost blank. Tang Qiuli has just come into our sight."

    Stalin shook his head and seemed to be saying to himself: "The director of the General Service of Military Intelligence is very incompetent." In a word, the director of the General Service of Intelligence was resigned from his post. He was very lucky not to be exiled to the Arctic Circle.  , the leader spoke, members of the Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union united their voices and shouted for fight. The dignity of the Soviet Union did not allow challenge, and the interests of the Red Soviet must be defended.

    The meeting did not waste much time and reached a resolution to immediately organize troops to launch a large-scale and violent counterattack against the Chinese troops who invaded Outer Mongolia. This gave the Chinese people who did not know their own capabilities a painful lesson and hindered their efforts to regain outer Mongolia.  Mongolia's ambitions are to mobilize its troops mainly in the Far East Military Region, which can strengthen the air force and tank forces.

    The tone of dispatching troops was set, and the candidate to command this force aroused debate among the members of the Politburo. Stalin did not speak, but asked Defense Minister Malenkov: "Comrade Malenkov, based on your understanding of the Far East Military Region, what leadership in the military region  Is there anyone in the team who is qualified for this position?" Malenkov thought for a while and replied: "Comrade Stalin and Comrade Zhukov, currently the deputy chief of staff of the military region, are very suitable to serve as the commander of this unit."

    Stalin obviously had great trust in Malenkov. He nodded and said, "Well, on the basis of the Far East Special Army, we will expand this unit into the First Far East Army. We proposed that Comrade Zhukov serve as the commander of the group army, specifically responsible for Outer Mongolia."  No one objects to the battle, right?"

    The boss has spoken. To object is to seek death. By a show of hands, Stalin's proposal was unanimously approved. It is a historical opportunity. Zhukov, this historic figure who has won the title of Hero of the Soviet Union three times, contributed to the victory of the Patriotic War and the Soviet-German War for the Soviet Union.  , finally came to the forefront and began his glorious and legendary military career. However, there were only three people in the Soviet Union who were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

    Assuming that Tang Qiuli had not launched the Battle of Outer Mongolia, it is not yet known whether Zhukov would still be buried in the Far East Military Region and be a competent staff officer. However, Zhukov's subsequent performance in the Battle of Outer Mongolia could be regarded as Tang Qiuli's.  the oppositeFor one, although he ultimately failed to save Outer Mongolia, the Chinese land that Stalin insisted on clinging to, he still gained Stalin's high trust because of his outstanding military talent. He was promoted repeatedly, reaching the rank of Commander-in-Chief of the Soviet Red Army.  The post of chief of staff entered the circle of the core leadership of the Soviet Union.

    "That shameful deserter Mikovsky should be tried by a military court. Such a scum is not allowed to exist in the Red Soviet Army. He is a disgrace to the Red Army," Stalin still said to Defense Minister Malenkov. Malenkov  Nodding, he already knew how to deal with the former commander of the Far East Special Forces, which was to publicly shoot him. The supreme commander said that even if Mikovsky was the biological son of Jesus, there was no way he could survive.

    Still speaking of Stalin, Mikovsky, who climbed to a high position by relying on informants and faithfully implementing the policy of suppressing counterrevolutionaries, with his hands stained with the blood of comrades, has been destined. Perhaps he would never have thought that he would end up like this.  From the moment he abandoned the army and fled for his life, it was already destined that no army, whether red or other colors, would tolerate deserters. He was a vested interest in this system, a victim, and an abandoned person.

    Late at night, Japan, Tokyo, Emperor Hirohito's palace, faced with the civil and military ministers summoned late at night, Emperor Hirohito, whose face was so gloomy that he could drip water for many days in a row, for the first time ever had a happy face, ever since he received a call from the Army Intelligence Bureau.  After listening to the report, Emperor Hirohito has been in an extremely excited state. The depression and anguish of the past few days have been wiped away. Even the little girl, who has always rested for many days, has a desire that is ready to move.

    If the imperial meeting was not about to be held, he would be eager to visit several charming concubines. Hirohito was in a good mood and personally greeted the ministers who came to attend the meeting at the entrance of the hall. This made the ministers who had been feeling uneasy  , as if seeing the long-lost sunshine, so relaxed that I feel like floating.

    Emperor Hirohito not only had a happy face, he also made an exception and prepared authentic Japanese snacks and mellow sake for the ministers who attended the meeting. Hirohito picked up the wine glass, his face flushed with excitement, as if he had received a hundred injections of chicken blood, "Today, it's  On the day when I feel most comfortable and relaxed, the information sent by the Army Intelligence Bureau is the best panacea for me. You all know, right? The Chinese devil Tang Qiuli, in Outer Mongolia, and the Soviet Union  Fierce fighting broke out, and the Soviets suffered a big loss. God bless us, and the Empire of Japan cheers."

    The ministers present here, except for the Chief of the General Staff of the base camp, Prince Kanin Miyazaishihito, the Minister of War, Koichi Yonai, and the Minister of War, this is the first time for other ministers to hear this shocking news. In surprise, they stood hurriedly  He stood up and drank the sake in his hand. No matter what, this news was great news to the Japanese. Any dissatisfaction caused by hiding such important news from the Army had long since disappeared.  Went to the beyond.

    The Japanese military circles are somewhat frightened when mentioning this China devil who caused the Japanese army and navy to suffer so much and hated them so much but could do nothing about it. Many senior generals in the military regard being sent to northern China to fight Tang Qiuli as a crime.  For fear of the future and to learn from the past, so many high-ranking generals were killed. Now, Tang Qiuli did not know the depth and got into trouble with the Soviets. This was his own destruction.

    For the Japanese, Tang Qiuli's military operations in Outer Mongolia, regardless of success or failure, were absolutely beneficial to the Japanese Empire. If they were defeated, the Soviets would vent their anger on the Japanese, and Tang Qiuli's military strength would also be at risk.  It is not necessarily known that the Kwantung Army will suffer heavy losses and be unable to recover as a result. Then, what the Kwantung Army will face is a weak opponent. Manchuria, Liaoxi and even North China will return to the hands of the empire and solve this biggest opponent.  , isn¡¯t China still at my disposal?

    If Tang Qiuli were defeated, he would definitely become enemies with the Soviets, and they would have inextricable hatred. He added a powerful enemy out of thin air, which also reduced the Japanese army's fear of the Soviets. The Soviets suffered a defeat in the Far East.  , gave the Japanese renewed their ambition to covet the Soviet Far East territory. Since the inferior Chinese people can defeat the Soviets, then the excellent Yamato nation can also defeat the Soviets. This is the simplest conversion question in the Japanese mind.

    Therefore, the Japanese hope that Tang Qiuli will fight the Soviets as fiercely as possible in Outer Mongolia. It is best if he is trapped in Outer Mongolia and unable to get out, and is forced to constantly draw troops from North China to the north. It is best if he annoys Stalin and brings him to the north.  All energy is used to deal with him. This is an opportunity, a rare opportunity for the Empire of Japan. Emperor Hirohito and the Japanese military and political circles will not let go of this historical opportunity.

    Drinking mellow sake and eating dishes carefully prepared by the palace chef, Emperor Hirohito and senior Japanese military and political officials have never discussed military affairs in such a relaxed atmosphere since the all-out war against China.  The beautiful palace maid, the fragrance of wine and the fragrance of woman's powder, really makes you fall into boundless enjoyment.
